This will force Steam to download the update, so you don't have to wait around until it feels like it. If Steam is already running, close all Steam games and game launchers, including DayZ and any DayZ launchers, then restart Steam (this step is not strictly required, but very much recommended so no files are held in use).Īfter Steam has restarted, open the vanilla DayZ launcher and go to the "Mods" tab.įor each mod that you want to update, click on the mod (or the small arrow next to the name on the right hand side) to expand it, then click the button with the three dots (".") and click repair. Update the mods in question on your local PCįirst things first, as you're going to upload the updated mod files to your server, you need to make sure they are up-to-date on your local PC.
DAYZ LAUNCHER BROKEN HOW TO
Note that these instructions work for ANY mod, not just Expansion (and also teach you how to correctly synchronize folders in general later on). This guide focuses solely on the task of updating mods that are already installed.
DAYZ LAUNCHER BROKEN INSTALL
We also won't teach you here how to install mods on a server manually in general, look for another guide if you need help with that. You will need to familiarize yourself with the program, we will not teach you that here. Instead, seeing how many people seem to struggle with actually correctly updating DayZ mods manually (amazingly, as it's not really that hard, and basically just involves synching the contents of two folders), we provide step by step instructions using a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) program, in this case FileZilla. Not the best choice for running a modded DayZ server due to the limited options you have there and the need to go through their server panel (which is cumbersome, and you are then also subject to any bugs the server panel may have), but we will not focus on that here. So, you are likely not using a dedicated machine, but a hosting provider like Nitrado or GTX. This is a tool that you install on your server and that handles deploying, updating, and managing servers with ease.
If you are running your modded server on a dedicated machine (highly recommended for performance and convenience reasons), use an automated system like OmegaManager.
