DayZ: Playing Namalsk or Deer Isle – and switching back to Chernarus

Switch maps using a package, what happens in the process and how to get back to the default map.

With the Namalsk and Deer Isle packages (Mods tab), you switch maps with one click: we add the map mods, create the matching mission under mpmissions/ and switch the mission (template) in the serverDZ.cfg.

Players

Players need the map mods too. With the DZSA Launcher, missing mods are downloaded automatically when joining.

Back to Chernarus (or Livonia)

  1. Files tab → open serverDZ.cfg.
  2. In class Missions, change the line template="…"; to template="dayzOffline.chernarusplus"; (Livonia: dayzOffline.enoch).
  3. In the Mods tab, remove the map mods (e.g. Namalsk Island/Survival or DeerIsle) and save.
  4. Restart the server.

Your Namalsk or Deer Isle mission stays under mpmissions/ – so you can switch back at any time.

Save data

Each map has its own save data (in the mission folder under storage_1). Switching maps doesn’t delete anything.
