Just want to say thank you! I have just began my journey into Modding and Editing with DayZ, got my own server in the lists. And your videos have been an amazing help! Top job mate!
Really appreciate your videos. Each one has really helped me with my xbox server. Have now picked up Dayz for pc in their sale for getting started on some jsons. Cheers dude 👊
iv been a sub for over a year now and love your content. im going actually do it today. im console and wanna learn how to make custom bases so my friends dont have to pay haha
I don’t get a yellow box around the item I’m placing and aren’t able to place anything it’s just sticking to my cursor, any idea what I can change to be able to place the items?
Does this work on pc and how do u get it from editor to the actual server? Awesome work all i been trying to do is add buildings and keep them in the game permanent
Hey speeder .that trader mod you gave step by step instructions which I followed . But for some reason I get a message . Of.. server lacks Trader Data.??? How can I fix this ? My cars are spawning out and lifetime is 3888000 but only cars I buy from trader spawns out . .can you help me figure out what is going on??? Thanks speeder
using DayZ expansion base building while using the ramps as a roof i found myself needing to cover the gap on the sides so i used piles of wooden logs and now it looks like a cabin, really cool touch.
Do you by chance know why i am having issues with spawning in my character? I press T as well as home (on my number pad) (num lock is off so i know the home button is working) and i cannot get my character to spawn in like you have here @12:55

any idea as to why my game wont launch in offline mode? when i launch the game it just shows my character and tries to load a server when i click play. the only mods i have selected is dabs, cf, dayz editor loader, and builder items. ive done everything i can think of. this video has very clear instructions but i keep getting different results.
Love your videos mate they're class. Easy to follow and so forth, could someone explain to me why cars are even more brittle now...why suddenly my wheels get ruined in an 9km/h crash into something cuz I desynced...its absolutely unacceptable. Is there anyway to remove the damage on wheels or change something so they don't explode on said 9km/h crash into a Bush? Cheers people.
Is there any disadvantage to using VPP Admin Tools to build your own custom trader areas for example? I find VPP Admin Tools so much more intuitive that DayZ Editor.
i've got a question. I have 60% keyboard and i can't really click home cuz i don't have that keybind. I was searching in setting to change that ,,home" to change that to another keybind but i can't find it. Does anybody know how to i change ,,home" to the other keybind in settings?
The editor window is enormous. I can't access the rest of the menu because of it. How to I adjust the size? I can't make it smaller by grabing the corner or sides.
i get that your using this to create and export structures. can you also edit loot settings with it and export it to ps4 ? or are consoles stuck with standard coding ?
I Installed the DayZ Editor on my Laptop. I used it to put items into the game. I have a Playstation so I am now needing to get the Laptop (Steam) DayZ to some how move that data from the Editor over to Nitrado so that I can play it on my Playstation 5. Can you tell me if you have a video for that and if so what vieo is it or tell me where to go to get that info?
Hey man I know this is an old tutorial however when I have editor and the required mods loaded, and press play, It does not load into editor just the normal game
Iv done your tutorial, my game freezes in the loading screen, forces my laptop to reboot, and keeps doin the same thing, i reinstalled Windows, Reinstalled vanilla DayZ and even crashes on that aswell!! iv resetted my pc to Factorymode, so theres nothing he should be fkn around with!! before that i was able to play DayZ without any issues!! now it doesnt after i tried playing around with DayZEditor!!

@@ScalespeederGaming Hey so I found a mod that I think just released called CBD Loot Rooms and is really cool and is just what I was looking for. I think you may even consider making a video about it. Appreciate your reply too my posts!
Very well explained but how do i place things in top of another? Example: i need to spawn a camo/military container on top of another but i can't do that because it shows me my container inside the other one. I can't place items on top of anything
Can someone please tell me how to turn off the editor 😫 I legit can't play my sever and there's no guide I tried to play with dayz editor unloaded from my mods and it won't launch and when it's on and up its unplayable
I made a local DayZ server using your guide and it works like a charm. I have DayZ editor but when i try to load it i always get stuck on about 50% downloaded and it never actually opens. What am I doing wrong?

@@ScalespeederGaming thanks for the reply. I think I’m gonna pass , I like the game but it has too many problems to consider buying it twice. Love your videos,keep up the good work.
Whenever I load the editor, it loads half way but then it just sits there for ages.. I have tried everything and watched many of your videos trying to figure this thing out. Without even going into the server list, just going into mods and loading the editor and needed mods for it and while still in the mod section, I click play, the game opens showing dayz editor screens but it gets about a little past half way and then it gets stuck. My mouse sits in the middle of the screen while the bottom load bar kind of twitches but it never gets past that.. Any helpful suggestions or anything from anyone would be super helpful. I must be missing something but i have been searching the internet up and down.. UPDATE: I am only able to get it to load using DayZ Experimental but not on the actual DayZ.. Hmmm
Hey bud first..just wanna say I like ur vids...my server is less than a week old and ur vids have really helped navigate some uncharted waters for me since I've never done this before..as I play with my friends and family...a question keeps coming up...and that is can I make my server like the ones that have 10x or 50x or 100x loot....so my question is what values make that server true..in my mind is like...50x the nominal number that's on the xml file...ex would be the glock..nominal is 20...so to make it 50x...I would 50x20=1000...do I put that as nominal??? Plz explains if u can.
Don't do that. Tripling the rarer guns is more than enough, and much more and your server will stop spawning properly. Remember to take other items out, like skate helmets or dresses.
yes you would need to buy it on steam and have a pc to run the editor. you can get a used laptop with 8gb ram and win10 on ebay for 100 - 200 USD or a pawn shop to use the editor. Of course if you dont own a console dayz server your renting from nitrado.. editor wont matter to u at all
@@ChainsawSquirrel I think I’ve invested as much as I’m going to into this game. This is bullshit that you have to buy a game twice to use the features, especially when you consider the half assed quality of the game.

Hi, I want to create a globe surface in a playable fps. I like dayz as it has zoom sniper rifles and range finder. I want to replicate a level surface on a section of a globe with 25000 miles circumference. Can a hill be made in this editor that would replicate a curved surface with a 360o 6 foot drop over 3 miles, following the earth curve calculator up to the available size of the map? I want to demonstrate to people how ridiculous it is to think you live on a spinning water/dirt ball in a vacuum. Having a helicopter ride over the map would be interesting with multiple ‘vertical’ buildings that are not parallel to each other, yet appear vertical and perpendicular to the ‘horizontal’ surface locally. ✌️
