    Nice one mate. Ive not long expanded over to pc from xbox and now installing these mods. Looking forward to playing through it. Great to see a genuine playthrough.

      That's great. Will keep my eye out for any updates.
      After thousands of hours on Dayz xbox I got a bit burnt out from the toxic side of it, but since switching platforms and finding these mods it has opened up a whole new side of the game for a solo player.

      @@BFNowhere Hey. I've been thinking about buying dayz but I'm worried about other players killing me, that's why I searched dayz singleplayer offline and found your channel. I'm curious if is it boring to play on your own? Is there any options for increasing zombie spawns, loot and the rest just to make it more lively?

      @@ralphjanwelth1686 I really enjoyed myself learning the game mechanics and the map as a new player without worrying about other players. After a while though, it does become too easy. You have more stuff than you can possibly use and so lose the compulsion to go out looting. You can just start again of course. But for single player, two things have made the experience much more challenging for me so far: Namalsk Survival and Expansion. Namalsk is tough and has other things going on that you can work towards. Expansion fills the world with new stuff - including AI that was often too strong for me.
      So - modding is probably the way to go. You can change things with the infected spawns although, personally, I think they are plenty annoying enough already!

      You can alter the server files, change numbers of infected and their spawn rates etc. Anything that spawns incl. loot can be changed. Going beyond that then have a look at the mods on the Steam Workshop site and see what they have. There are mods for pretty much any aspect of the game.

      As it was my first experience with Expansion, I left everything default. Now, I think it's a good idea to tweak settings for single player. In later series I changed the reputation required for the highest tier items (whatever they are) from 10,000 to 6,000. I've not messed with the prices yet, but some of the highest value vehicles are really high.

      It took a few tries to get them all working properly - I nearly gave up at one point. There is a video on YT about it. Have a look for Scalespeeder Gaming. I plan to make my own 'how to' video about it at some point if I can find a way to break it down into something reasonably simple to follow.

    Please show and explain how to install Expansion and mods in general to a single player server!

    • @BFNowhere
      @BFNowhere  9 місяців тому +3

      Mods don't all install in the same way and the process, although not that difficult, requires some patience and probably some research when things don't work! It's a hassle and you need to be prepared for that. On balance - it is worth the trouble though.
      Sometimes the mod creator will include installation instructions for server owners (people who just want to play mods on a remote server run by somebody else only need to download them). If they have provided instructions, these will be on the page for that specific mod in the DayZ Steam Workshop. Unfortunately, I think the assumption often is 'if you can install your own server you don't need instructions for installing mods' (!).
      All modded servers require their own 'start.bat' file. This starts the server instead of a Steam desktop shortcut - which won't work as it doesn't have all the information about the mods you want. You can create one using any basic text editor you have - just click your (empty) text document 'save as..' and call it 'start.bat' - and that's it. The contents of the file are beyond most of us however (including me). These will need to be copied and pasted from an online source. A search for 'DayZ Server start.bat' should find one.
      Once you've created this file you will need to customise it with: the name of your server and each mod you are installing listed individually in the 'Launch parameters' line. This is done in exactly the same format as the mod folder name (eg. '@DayZ-Expansion-Bundle') and each mod listed is separated by a semi-colon (;).
      All mods will also require you to copy the mod file from the 'DayZ Workshop' folder in the game directory (that's where the downloaded mod goes) to the server directory - copy and paste. Additionally, find the 'keys' folder in the individual named mod folder(s) and copy the contents (not the whole folder) into the 'keys' folder in the server directory.
      For the simpler mods - this will be enough...
      'Expansion' and mods like it require more work. In addition to the above steps some copying and pasting of 'xml' files will be required. Any mod that has 'events' which includes things that spawn randomly is likely to need this. As with the start.bat file contents - this is stuff you need to find and download following links (usually to git.hub) provided by the mod creator(s). They have to provide this otherwise their mods won't work.
      If I can get it together I may make my own video on how to install mods/Expansion aimed at single-player servers. In the meantime I suggest you visit @ScalespeederGaming who has videos for pretty much all server creators needs - including installing 'Expansion'. This is how I did it....
