How to Make Your DayZ Server Show on the Launcher

Learn how to make your server show up in the launcher.

In DayZ, in order to connect to a server you would have to do it through the launcher. Sometimes, it may happen that your server won’t show up in the launcher, but this could easily be resolved.

Making the Server Appear On The Launcher

  1. Go to your DayZ Server Panel and make sure the server is OFF.
  2. Go to the Network tab and you should be able to see 3 port connections.

NOTE: If you do not see the 3 port connections, click on Create Allocation. We provide 3 ports for your DayZ server, one will be the GamePort, followed by the Steam Query Port and the other one will be a RCON Port for your server managing tool. The primary port should always be the Game Port, which will then be followed by the SteamQuery Port that is GamePort +1 value. **Please contact support in case you have a wrong port configuration.**
