How to Change The Map on Your DayZ server

Learn how to change the map on your server.

DayZ servers come with two maps from the start. The first, ‘ChernarusPlus,’ is accessible to anyone who owns DayZ and is the standard setting for servers. For players with the Livonia DLC, there’s the option to switch to the ‘Enoch’ map. These maps offer different gameplay experiences: Livonia emphasizes survival in natural surroundings, requiring players to gather or hunt for food, while Chernarus features more urban exploration.

Changing the Map

  1. Go to your DayZ Server Panel and make sure the server is off.
  2. Navigate to File Manager.
