I want to make a film within the dayz mod.

Recommended Posts

I love making machinima, and I want to create a film within dayz. I saw someone on youtube make a video and they had a free flying camera man, plus they were using slowmotion, and even spawning in items/vehicles/clothes in order to kit out their character for a certain scene. How is all this possible?

Is it possible for this to be done in a controlled private server? Without in anyway effecting my current character?

You could use the editor. I'm not sure if you can place zombies in it though...

You can.

I'm pretty sure I remember seeing a topic when the mod was young. The only people that are allowed to have a filming server or anything of real use for spawning weapons/vehicles to make filming easier are the Bashurverse guys. You might want to get in touch with them if you want to film, as I remember Rocket saying specifically that they are the only ones that will be given the resources necessary to create proper videos on actualy DayZ servers.

However, if you wanted to use the editor to film rather than a server, you may have some success. I've fooled around in the editor, but haven't found it worthwhile nor easy. Your call.

Thanks I've never heard of the bashurverse guys, are you saying I may be able to get onto their server?

I'll give the editor ago though.

You'd have to contact them. Rocket gave them special help very early in the mod and they were involved in helping promote it from what I remember. Send them a message on Youtube or on the forums and see what the SOP is, as I have absolutely no idea.
