How to add mods to your DayZ: Standalone Server

How to add mods for DayZ SA PC

What you'll need;

   FileZilla Client (Download)

   Notepad++ for editing files (Download

   Your FTP Details (These are the details you use to log into your panel, Host name is your FTP IP found on your panel minus the :21)

   Steam workshop for DayZ SA PC (Found here)

How To;

   For this example we'll be using Trader mod by Dr_J0nes ( Trader Mod ) Click subscribe and this will download it to your workshop folder for DayZ SA to use.

   Now we need to navigate to this folder, to find it we need to find our workshop folder, most commonly found in Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps Now open Workshop enter into the content folder, inside you'll see a lot of files all numbered, DayZ SA app number is 221100 So this is the folder we'll be finding our mods in. Enter that folder and find the Trader mod. Now this isn't as easy as it sounds if you already have 101 mods installed for DayZ SA. To make this easier we look at the workshop URL for the mod we're installing, in this case Trader mod.

   In the URL you'll see some numbers 'https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1590841260' That's the mod ID so now lets find that folder and copy it to our Desktop. Once done, rename the folder to the mod, so that'll be @Trader. Now you'll need FileZilla, login to FTP with Filezilla and you'll now see your server, click your server folder and now we can see all the DayZ SA files, drag and drop the @Trader folder into the directory, being carefull not to drag it into another folder. Once done go back to the @Trader folder on your desktop and open it.

   Now in the folder you'll see a Key's folder, open that and find the Keys folder on your server, now drag and drop the dayztrader.bikey into the keys folder.  Now on the @Trader folder on your desktop, find the ServerProfileFolder, open that and you should see a folder named Trader. We need to place this folder inside your servers Profile folder, so on FileZilla find your servers profile folder and drop the Trader folder in there.

  With most mods, this would be all you need to do, however some mods also need files edited, these are usually explained on the mod page themselves, or come with an XML folder with the changes that need added in them. Follow the mod's guide and you should be good with the file edits.

   Once all that is done head back to your server panel. Click command line and create a new command line if you don't have one already. Create a name for it in the 'Description'  box and then head down to the 'Mods' box, we need to make sure that box is enabled by click the square on the left, once it has a tick in, that box is enabled. Now inside the 'Mods:' box enter @Trader (Note, if using more than one mod, mods will need to look like the following; @Trader;@Mod2;@Mod3 As you can see we use ; to space the mods, allowing the system to know we have multiple mods needing loaded. Now hit save. Once saved hit select on the command line you just made, once done this should go bold that means that is now the active command line. Now start the server and your mods should load up with it.

 

  WHEN PERFORMING A STEAM UPDATE, THIS MAY OVERWRITE AND FILES YOU'VE EDITED, MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD ANY XML FILE YOU'VE EDITED BEFORE DOING A STEAM UPDATE THEN REPLACING THEM BACK AFTER OR ANY MODS REQUIRING FILE EDITS WILL NO LONGER WORK.
