How to change map on a DayZ server

Header image

If you want to refresh the gameplay on your DayZ server, changing the map is a great way to start a whole new adventure! DayZ offers three maps, each bringing unique experiences and challenges. The classic map, Chernarus, is filled with abandoned towns; Livonia offers deep forests, rivers, and untamed nature. The newest map, Sakhal, takes you to an island with a harsh, icy climate and challenging terrain. In this article, we’ll explain how to change the map on your DayZ server in just a few simple steps!

How to change map

1. Access server files and open serverDZ.cfg file.

2. Go to the end of the file where you will see the line allowing you to change the map:

At this point, depending on the map you want to select, use:

  • Chernarus
template="dayzOffline.chernarusplus"
  • Livonia
template="dayzOffline.enoch"
  • Sakhal
template="dayzOffline.sakhal"

3. Go to the console and restart server.

We hope that our intuitive web interface has allowed you to configure DayZ server easily. If you want to ask us any questions, feel free to contact us via e-mail, ticket or live chat!
