Steve Hill 1 Posted November 8, 2018 Hello all, posting here as you guys are full of great information! So i've recently got a server again after a year or 2 away, via gaming deluxe it's a private shard server for my clan friends. anyway, my question is this: Can i add mods to this server should we want to go down this route? or will i have to create a server myself using the tools provided by DayZ? And also i can't do any edits to the config in depth, so i assume i can't change loot spawn etc Thanks for any help in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should consult your GSP support to find out their stance on adding modding support to their system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sy8282 21 Posted November 9, 2018 We used to have gaming deluxe 2 months ago they refused to give us access to any files stating as a shard it remains vanilla. So we went down the self hosted route was 4 times cheaper. Check out the data centres server auctions you can get good deals on them and if there's a problem you don't need to wait days for gd to try and fix it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But with the price in mind and no change in sight we had to cancel our server at GD too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Zed 272 Posted November 10, 2018 GTX Gaming has been great since I switched to them and their prices are reasonable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaVerick_GDZ 148 Posted November 11, 2018 That issue happened to us with Fragnet and GD, seems to be more of a DayZ thingy. Both handled it pretty much the same with a wipe and a regular persistance backup job in their interface afterwards. But yeah, the price... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
