Local Test Server

[Pavillin]

Hey all! I've fiddled about with DayZ servers for a few months now and have really enjoyed myself. Though saying that there have been times where I want to walk away from my computer and never come back. :P  Anyways, to the point.. I've made a few mistakes when working on DayZ servers, this is due to the fact that I test everything my live server. That is never a good idea so I'm here today asking if anyone know how I can setup a local DayZ Epoch test server so I can test everything before I putting it on my live server. Just as a reminder if this even changes anything I use HeidiSQL to edit my database. Any help is much appreciated! :)

Use that man. I have a test server at home with duplicate server copies of both my live servers. Anything I want gets tested here first then goes live if it functions as it should.

iirc it was pretty simple, you copy arma 2 and OA contents into the same folder, for example on your desktop, set up xampp for database, throw in server and mission files and any other crap that comes along with the server like BE filters etc and you're done.
