Helicopters in DayZ

[phil bottle 9,957]

So, while the actual developer has droppped the ball, the modding community come to the rescue once again. 

 

The DayZ Expansion mod will have a lot of great features but the following is what I have been waiting for.

Watched a stream of SadaPlays testing out the DayZ Expansion mod with a couple of the modders, a Pole and Latvian. It looks like the DayZ of old might finally be coming back. That they have been working on this in their own time for free puts Bohemia to shame.

If he's saved it, I'll post it here.

Here we go, I've copied the link, it should start from about 2 hours into the stream. 

 

Sada can be a bit silly but he understands DayZ and the modders give him a lot of info on what they're doing as he's quite famous in the community.

It really did look slick. I wonder how many mods will you need to have to make the perfect DayZ game?

If you proceed with ChernarusPlusGloom mission file its important to set lightingConfig inside your server config file to 2.

After starting your server with the DayZ Expansion mod for the first time, the server will generate the ExpansionMod folder in your profiles folder, in that folder all DayZ Expansion related settings and storage will be stored, if you want to toggle any part of DayZ Expansion proceeded into settings folder and open specific file you want to tweak.
