Creating a DayZ Standalone server based on the official server files of the game on steam

123new · 20 мая 2020

Hello, dear friends and site visitors. In this topic, I will describe how to create a "clean" server based on the first official server files of the game, available to everyone on steam for those who purchased this wonderful game. For those who did not purchase it, do not worry, I will add mirrors to the files.

And so, let's get started ?

System requirements:

https://s-platoon.ru/topic/9279-full-dayz-server-files-documentation/?do=findComment&comment=82478

We will need:

1. Notepad++: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download

2. Official server files of the game from steam. You can download them:

In Steam, from the 'tools' section, select DayZ Server and click 'install'
Manually using the SteamCMD utility:

How to download:
- Creating a SteamCMD folder on your computer, the folder name and path to its location should not contain Russian characters.
  P.S. it is Not recommended to create a folder on the desktop or C disk (system disk)
- Creating a Dayz Server folder on your computer, the folder name and path to its location should not contain Russian characters.
  P.S. it is Not recommended to create a folder on the desktop or C disk (system disk)
- Download the SteamCMD program file from here and unpack it to the SteamCMD folder.
- Download and place the bat file to load the server here:

- Open the bat file in Notepad++ and edit it. In the line:
```
set "steamcmd_dir=C:\2"
```
  Specify the path to the SteamCMD folder instead of C:\2.
- In the line:
```
set "arma_serverdir=C:\2\Server\"
```
  specify instead C:\2\Server\ path to the DayZ Server folder (this is the folder where you will have an already loaded server)
- In lines:
```
set steam_username=1234
set steam_password=1234
```
  specify any correct steam account (1 line username, 2 password) (life hack: it is not necessary that DayZ was purchased on the account)
- Save changes
- Run the saved bat file and wait for it to load the game server with the current version. After the download is complete, it will turn off automatically.
  P.S. Be careful, when you first start the SteamCMD program, You may be asked for the Steam Guard code, which you will need to type in the program window and confirm by pressing Enter!

3. Official client of the game from steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/221100/DayZ/

4. "Configured configuration of the server part of the game" and a bat for starting

And so, let's get started

Copy the folder with the downloaded game server files (the DayZ Server folder) to a separate folder. The folder path and name must not contain spaces or Russian characters. The new folder itself can be named as you want, but I will call it MyServer.
Unpack the archive with the "Configured configuration of the server part of the game" in the folder with server files (the MyServer folder). We get something like this:
Then we work only inside the MyServer folder
Open the server.cfg file in the Instance folder in Notepad++ _1. We configure it, comments on the configuration in Russian are available in the file.
If you need to, you can check with serverDZ.cfg in the root folder of the server. this is the original configuration file provided by the developers. Also, you can read information from the official documentation with translation in the topic here(see in the 2 message of the specified topic). Plus there are explanations at the end of the guide!
Open the BEServer.cfg and Server_x64.cfg files in Notepad++ in the Instance_1\Battleye folder in the server folder. Setting up parameters, the contents of both files should be identical.
Parameters:
RCon Password - Sets the password for connecting RCon tools (remote administration tool such as BEC/Dart).
RestrictRCon - Enables / disables RCon functions (kik\ban\connection restriction) (0 to disable restrictions)
MaxPing - sets the server's ping limit
In the example you already have, 12345678 - rcon-server password, 500 - the maximum ping allowed by battleye for playing on the server, RestrictRCon 0-allow connection with RCon clients with kick and ban rights (0-everything is allowed, 1-kick and ban are forbidden, only sending to the chat).
Start !!!Start_server.bat and our server will start.
Launch the game client from steam, find our server manually by ip and port, or server name.
If the server is running on the same computer as the game and on the standard port 2302, the default search is 127.0.0.1:2302
If the server is running on another computer, the ip address of the computer where the server is running or its domain name will be used instead of 127.0.0.1. For example, myserver.com:2302 or 178.123.22.12:2302
IMPORTANT: if the server is running on a different computer than the one where the game is running, you must have an "external" dedicated ip address and an open server port to access the server!
You can change the server port in !!!Start_server.bat (Notepad++ for editing), the server start parameter is port= For more information on the startup parameters, see below.
To shut down the server, it is recommended to use it !!!Server_kill.bat file created in accordance with the game developers ' recommendations and official documentation.

Crack SmartSteamEmu V. 1.4.3 of this version of the game client and server:

Installation instructions are in the archive, duplicate:

Скрытый текст

For the game client:
1. Copy the contents of the Client folder from the archive to the official game client folder
2. If necessary, use Notepad to open the file !StartGame.ini and edit the following lines:
"Target = DayZ_BE.exe" - name of the game file to launch (DayZ_BE.exe -launch from battleye, DayZ_x64.exe -without battleye)
"StartIn =" - the path to the folder with the game, you can leave it empty when you find crack in the folder with the game
"CommandLine =" - game launch parameters, you can leave them empty or add your own, for example-name=Player
If you do not understand this, it is better to skip this point of the instructions!!!
3. Launch !start_game.bat to start the game

For the game server:
1. Copy the contents of the Server folder from the archive to the folder with the official game server
2. Be sure to use Notepad to open the file !StartServer.ini and edit the following lines:
"Target = DayZServer_x64.exe" - name of the server file to launch (DayZServer_x64.exe)
"StartIn =" - path to the server folder, you can leave it empty for when you find crack in the server folder
"CommandLine =" - server startup parameters, you can leave them empty or add your own, for example-name=Player
ATTENTION!!! CommandLine has already been edited for the server build to work on config by 123new. The server part is fully available in the guide above.
3. Launch !Start_server.bat to start the server

Additionally:

To work with Battleye, kick and ban players, use the server's ip address and port, and any rcon client with a password from Server_x64. cfg

For BEC to work, the BEServer.cfg file must be identical in content to Server_x64. cfg otherwise the program will not work!

The database (storage) is now stored at the path: mpmissions\dayz Offline.chernarusplus\storage_{instance number from the cfg server}

The database also stores a file with player saves on the server named players.db

If you don't find your server in the list of game servers in the Community tab, check the game port, as well as the steam and steamquery ports (see the server cfg file) for availability and openness from the outside. Servers with crack will not be displayed there.
