Full transcript

1. 0:00Before we begin today's video, I'd like
2. 0:02to encourage all of you DayZ server
3. 0:04owners to come join my Discord if you
4. 0:06really want to take your server to the
5. 0:08next level. You'll find everything from
6. 0:10the basic XML guides to definitions,
7. 0:13some really good JSON builds, proxy
8. 0:16builds along with advanced XML. The link
9. 0:19to join my Discord will be on all of my
10. 0:21YouTube videos. See you guys there.
11. 0:25Hello YouTube and welcome back to
12. 0:27another video on my channel. In today's
13. 0:29video, I'm going to teach you guys how
14. 0:31you can spawn in buildings on your DayZ
15. 0:34server
16. 0:35and then also add those spawned in
17. 0:38buildings to the central economy of your
18. 0:40server. So,
19. 0:42for example, you want to make a point of
20. 0:44interest on your server, add more
21. 0:47buildings, more tents to any of the
22. 0:50military bases, and then you want those
23. 0:53buildings to generate
24. 0:55loot just as any other vanilla building
25. 0:59on the server. So, basically just add
26. 1:01those buildings to the central economy
27. 1:04of the server. So, so it'll be taking
28. 1:07loot from the types.xml. It won't be
29. 1:10custom loot that responds in the exact
30. 1:13same location every server restart. More
31. 1:16like it'll be just as any other vanilla
32. 1:20uh
33. 1:21building in the game. So, to get
34. 1:23started,
35. 1:24obviously, you need to have DayZ Editor.
36. 1:26If you don't have DayZ Editor, this
37. 1:29method this guide is not for you. And
38. 1:32you're going to be thinking, "Well, I'm
39. 1:34doing it for a console server, then why
40. 1:36do I need DayZ Editor, which is a PC
41. 1:39mod?" Well,
42. 1:41you know, this is what this method is
43. 1:44for. If you want to be doing it manually
44. 1:46without the need of DayZ Editor, I also
45. 1:48have guides for that in my Discord. But
46. 1:51this specific video is for those people
47. 1:54that have access to DayZ Editor. So, to
48. 1:57get started, all you want to do is make
49. 1:59your way
50. 2:01to the file browser of your server.
51. 2:07Once you're in the file browser, you're
52. 2:09going to see Daisy PS missions for
53. 2:11PlayStation servers. For Xbox, it should
54. 2:14say Daisy XB missions.
55. 2:17Open that, and then whatever the map of
56. 2:20your server is. For example, on my
57. 2:22screen I have Chernarus and Enema.
58. 2:25There's also Sakhal, which can be
59. 2:28included if your server is
60. 2:31Sakhal.
61. 2:32In my case, I'm going to go with
62. 2:33Chernarus Plus.
63. 2:39I'm going to stay here exactly, and then
64. 2:42go to Daisy Editor first. So, for
65. 2:44example, let's see. I want to add
66. 2:47buildings
67. 2:49to
68. 2:51Balota Airfield.
69. 2:57Let's say I want to add
70. 3:03military tents here.
71. 3:09I'm just going to throw them in there
72. 3:10for now.
73. 3:13Let's say I want to also
74. 3:16include
75. 3:18a barracks building.
76. 3:25Okay.
77. 3:27Now, these buildings
78. 3:28I want these buildings to generate loot
79. 3:31just as any other vanilla
80. 3:33building.
81. 3:35I'm going to go to file,
82. 3:37export
83. 3:39to object spawner first. You can export
84. 3:41it to a new file. Just put the file name
85. 3:44in here. Do, for example, Balota
86. 3:47additions or whatever. But, in my case,
87. 3:51I'm going to go with a file I already
88. 3:54have.
89. 3:56Then, make your way to a folder called
90. 3:59editor.
91. 4:02In that folder, you're going to see the
92. 4:04file you just exported.
93. 4:07Go to cfggameplay.json
94. 4:12on your DayZ server.
95. 4:14Make your way to line 57. You're going
96. 4:18to see something called object spawner.
97. 4:23Once in there,
98. 4:25go to custom.json
99. 4:28on my Discord.
100. 4:30You're going to see the very first
101. 4:31example
102. 4:33that is object spawner.
103. 4:36Copy that bit of code.
104. 4:38Paste
105. 4:40on your existing object spawner line.
106. 4:43Just make sure you leave that last
107. 4:45comma.
108. 4:47Control V. I pasted that. Okay, now I
109. 4:50have three entries for files. I don't
110. 4:53need all three.
111. 4:55I'm only going to use one of them, so
112. 4:56I'm going to get rid of the other two.
113. 4:58Then, I'm going to control A, highlight
114. 5:01the entire file,
115. 5:02and I'm going to paste it onto the
116. 5:05validator, which is in the tool section
117. 5:07of my Discord. Make sure you use the
118. 5:10JSON validator and not the XML because
119. 5:13this cfggameplay file is a JSON file.
120. 5:20Okay, checks out. Valid.
121. 5:22Valid JSON. We're going to go back, save
122. 5:25changes.
123. 5:28Back to DayZ Offline Chernarus Plus.
124. 5:32Make our way to custom folder.
125. 5:35Create a new file,
126. 5:38and I'm going to copy
127. 5:40that exact same name
128. 5:43from the object spawner line.
129. 5:46Just make sure you don't copy the whole
130. 5:47pathway and the quotations and
131. 5:49everything. You just want to grab the
132. 5:51name. So, in my case, Immer data 1.json.
133. 5:56Control copy.
134. 5:58Paste that. Make a new file.
135. 6:04>> [clears throat]
136. 6:05>> File is made.
137. 6:06Going to go back to the export I got
138. 6:09from DayZ Editor.
139. 6:11Copy.
140. 6:13Upload.
141. 6:15Save changes.
142. 6:16Okay.
143. 6:18So, this way we have
144. 6:21these buildings spawning on our server.
145. 6:24They're going to spawn in just fine. One
146. 6:26last step you're going to need to make
147. 6:28sure they do,
148. 6:29go back to general settings of your
149. 6:31server and make sure something called
150. 6:33enable cfggameplay.json
151. 6:36is enabled.
152. 6:37If this is not enabled, that file won't
153. 6:40be read. So, you want to make sure this
154. 6:42is enabled on your server.
155. 6:44Back to the file browser.
156. 6:48We go to DayZ Editor again.
157. 6:50This time we're going to export not as
158. 6:52object spawner.
159. 6:54We are going to export map group pause,
160. 6:58which is an XML file.
161. 7:00Again, you can make a new file or use an
162. 7:03existing file in your editor
163. 7:06folder.
164. 7:08Okay.
165. 7:10So, what you what you need to pay
166. 7:11attention to here is you only need to
167. 7:14grab the entries that are relevant to
168. 7:16the buildings you've spawned in.
169. 7:19The end tag of the file,
170. 7:21you don't need. The opening tag, you
171. 7:24don't need. I only need
172. 7:28these three
173. 7:29entries cuz I have three buildings.
174. 7:32I'm going to control copy those.
175. 7:34In my file browser, I'm going to
176. 7:36download something called map group
177. 7:39pause.xml.
178. 7:40This file is responsible
179. 7:43for the central loot economy. So, this
180. 7:46tells the game
181. 7:48the location of every building it needs
182. 7:50to feed central economy-wise. Okay?
183. 7:54That's why we're going to add in here
184. 7:57these three new buildings. Just make
185. 7:59sure you drop them below line number one
186. 8:02and two cuz you don't want to interrupt
187. 8:06the file's
188. 8:07opening tag.
189. 8:09Okay, so here we are. These are the
190. 8:12three new entries I added. Just to be
191. 8:14safe, I'm going to control A, copy, go
192. 8:18to an XML validator this time, not JSON.
193. 8:21Control paste, control V, validate XML,
194. 8:25perfect.
195. 8:28I'm going to save changes. Okay, so what
196. 8:30I'm using to open these files, by the
197. 8:33way, is Notepad++. It's very helpful.
198. 8:36Make sure you have that downloaded, too,
199. 8:38and installed. And make sure you open
200. 8:41all of the files with Notepad++
201. 8:44only.
202. 8:45Any other editor, honestly,
203. 8:48I wouldn't vouch for, but Notepad++ is
204. 8:51perfect.
205. 8:52After I've added
206. 8:55the three entries, I have saved changes.
207. 8:58My map group pause file is still in the
208. 9:01downloads,
209. 9:02but it's been updated now.
210. 9:05I'm going to go back to my file browser
211. 9:07of the server. I'm going to upload
212. 9:10go to downloads
213. 9:12the same map group pause. I don't have
214. 9:14to delete the old one
215. 9:16cuz what happens is the server is going
216. 9:18to just replace the old one with the new
217. 9:21one. I can see the date.
218. 9:23July 31st. There you go.
219. 9:26The file's been updated and now
220. 9:30those buildings, those three buildings I
221. 9:33added to my DayZ server, those will be
222. 9:36treated as any other vanilla
223. 9:39uh building in the game.
224. 9:41The only thing you have to be very
225. 9:42careful about in the map group pause
226. 9:44that XML file is
227. 9:47when you re-upload, make sure it's the
228. 9:48exact same name.
229. 9:50Cuz if it if it gets uploaded
230. 9:53with a different name, even a number or
231. 9:55anything that is different, it's also
232. 9:57case sensitive actually, the game server
233. 10:00will not read it. So, you want to make
234. 10:02sure it gets re-uploaded with the exact
235. 10:05same name.
236. 10:07And that should be it. That's all you
237. 10:09need to do. Thank you guys so much for
