Will work on all maps if you use Tanoa trains and tracks! Personally I cannot wait!!!

Jumped on as Australia map is one of my all time favourite maps.
Thanks to Grahame for putting this together as the server is very playable and has much to offer the pve player even though server is set up as pvp.
I know there is some pieces still wip which can only add to this fantastic server.

Just use the Chernarus mission files but substitute chernarus for the chernarus winter name in all mentions, it's the same map after all.

and are you calling the file ?
#include "configs\maps\ chernarus_winter.h "
 
epoch_server_settings/config.cpp     There's more than 2 changes required, you'll have to go through all the server side files

@Toby77 with steam workshop server and mod dependencies, it should not be much of an issue to use. Using the built in Arma 3 launcher will automatically download the needed mods.

Also, keep in mind this is a 2 year old thread and I have already added basic support for using CBA alongside Epoch.

that upload is nearly 2 yrs old, probably long gone.

Creation of Arma 3: Epoch Mod started on December 15th 2013, and while community support has had its ups and downs along with the contest it did encourage us to spend more time working on the project. Epoch was a top 10 finalist in the MANW total conversion category and won the popular community vote and that I am very grateful for.
Epoch Development Team are all volunteers and have each put in hundreds if not thousands of unpaid hours into helping create and release Epoch Mod for everyone to enjoy. Making game ready Arma assets, game modes etc. is not easy and can be very time-consuming. Special thanks go to all those that have supported us throughout our development! Epoch Mod would not exist without you! 
Plans for next year include working with the community to further refine the MP survival framework and adding more support for singleplayer editor based missions and scenarios. The 1.0 update will bring a massive release of all remaining asset sources under APL-SA, and will be considered in the hands of the community to fork and develop as they choose. 
Happy Holidays and New Year! Cheers to the pursuit of the next big thing!

Came across a cool looking  gamemode that also uses Epoch mod and figured I would share it here.

[Fixed] Fireplace position incorrectly shifted down after lighting the fireplace. Thanks for the report by @Ignatz-HeMan #592
[Fixed] Increased anti-teleport range that should hopefully allow for proper HALO spawning.
[Fixed] Typos in Battleye script.txt that caused the filter not to function properly.
[Fixed] Trailing commas in mission addons array. Thanks to a RP from @SPKcoding (aka $p4rky on EpochMod.com Forum)
[Fixed] No longer possible to unlock Doors / Gates while using a UAV. Thanks to PR from @Ignatz-HeMan
Server Side Only:
[New] EpochServer.dll/so is now statically linked to pcre3 and hredis. On Windows this means that the pcre3.dll file in the arma 3 root can now be removed. On Linux we no longer depend on libhredis and libpcre to be installed.
[Added] Example mission file epoch_RyanZed.Tanoa that includes "RyanZombies" in the required addons array.
[Fixed] Database logging now trims log entries via the LogLimit setting  provided in EpochServer.ini. The default is 1000 log records per list.
Known Issues:
Jetski and Electric Motorcycle motorcycle in-vehicle HUD will not initialize if player is spawned inside vehicle, as display getin EH did not fire.

Anything that we released APL-SA can be modified and redistributed provided credits are given (ideally in the same place your own credits are listed) and you should release our modified game mode code and config changes under the same license.
Epoch game mode: https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch
Epoch server backend: https://github.com/EpochModTeam/EpochServer
Epoch asset and configs: https://github.com/EpochModTeam/EpochCore 
The models and some other assets that are not APL-SA yet can still be used by simply using @Epoch mod as a dependency in steam workshop along side your own mod/s. As of Epoch 0.4+ I am making changes that will simplify our configs and remove most Epoch game mode related config overrides so that @Epoch mod can become more of a pure modders resource for assets, this way we can have multiple game modes SP or MP that all share the same assets. 
 
Pending permission from the authors of the models and other assets the plan is to release more and more assets as APL-SA licensed via the github links above with each major update at the same time laying the groundwork for more community contributions. 

Sad news indeed, having put thousands of hours of work into A2 and A3 Epoch I can confirm that it does take a lot of time.  
It has always been a struggle to find the time to make Epoch let alone keep up with Arma 3's constant development cycles so I know where they are coming from.

So sad.

So sad.
