In this article, we will be going over the installation and activation of mods for your DayZ server hosted by Host Havoc.
Automated method featuring our built-in Workshop Mod Handler:
Step 1: Log into your game control panel.
Step 2: Gather the Workshop mod IDs of the mods you wish to install. This is shown at the end of the mod URL.
Step 3: Open the Workshop Mod Handler utility in the game control panel.
Step 4: Separated by commas (no spaces), enter the mod IDs into the text field and run the function. For example: 123456789,987654321,123456789
Step 5: View the game service and open the Command Line Manager and create a new custom command line.
Step 6: Edit your custom command line. Most mods will go in the -mods parameter, some will need to go in the -servermods parameter.
Step 7: Enter the mod folder names separated by semi-colons (;). For example, if you wanted to load three mods with the names @MyMod1, @MyMod2, and @MyMod3, you'd set the text field to:
@MyMod1;@MyMod2;@MyMod3;
Step 8: Save the Commandline and click Select on the right-hand side.
Manual (old method):
Step 1: Set up an FTP client, we recommend using FileZilla. Refer here.
Step 2: Download the mod/addon pack that you wish to install.
Step 3: Connect to your server's FTP.
Step 4: Drag and drop the addon folder (name must start with an @ symbol) to your root (base) directory in FileZilla or whichever FTP client you are using.
Step 5: Log into your game control panel.
Step 6: View the game service and open the Commandline Manager.
Step 7: If you have not already, click on the Custom Commandlines tab and create a new custom Commandline.
Step 8: Edit your custom command line. Most mods will go in the -Mods parameter, some will need to go in the -servermods parameter.
Step 9: Enter the mod folder names separated by semi-colons (;). For example, if you wanted to load three mods with the names @MyMod1, @MyMod2, and @MyMod3, you'd set the text field to:
@MyMod1;@MyMod2;@MyMod3;
