current tutorials on how to setup overpoch

[tinboye]

Is there any current tutorials on how to setup overpoch server?

or maybe someone can give me an explanation on how things work.

I find that I cannot just setup an overpoch server without first having to setup epoch server, then join the game, then log out, then add overwatch and any overpoch mission like cash me up 0.16

If I create a new server, add @DayZ_Epoch, @DayZ_Epoch_Server and then i can join.

then I make a new folder calling it @DayZ_Overpoch_Napf_Server with the modified server pbo

and mission file, i can join.

but if I was to say, make a new server folder, copy all the content from the old server to the new server and fire up the server and try to join, it will not load. it just sits on waiting for authentication.

I have a feeling it has to do with the hive or something like that.

some of the videos i watch say to have overpoch you have to delete files from overwatch and copy files from epoch folder into overwatch and rename them to the files initially deleted.

and then they say to take your @dayz_epoch_server and rename to @dayz_overpoch_server and

then in the launch parameters still have @overwatch;@dayz_epoch_mod;@dayz_epoch_server 

in doing so why wouldnt one have 

@overwatch;@dayz_epoch_mod;@dayz_overpoch_server instead.

Is there something that tells everything to also look in the @dayz_overpoch_server folder for alternate server content?

if anyone has explanation on things let me know please.

One thing that most people setting up overpoch tend to miss out is that you have to grab dayz_code.pbo file from @Epoch client files along with its bikey and overwrite @Overwatch dayz_code.pbo

 

So that's most likely where you're getting stuck at as you won't get past waiting for host or something like that, basically it won't work and won't say why.

 

As for launch params, you just need to add @overwatch to them and that's about it

ok pls PM me if this is the same for Origins, from what i understand, origins developers do not want things posted on here that modify their code. but if you can pm me on an answer about that, would be appreciated. i have my launch parms as so

 

"-mod=@DayzOrigins;@DayzOverwatch;@DayZ_Epoch;@DayZ_Overpochins_Napf_Server;" on server side launch

 

and on client i just remove the server mod part.

 

thanks

so i was able to get the overpochins server working. just have some items to iron out. if anyone knows these errors I am getting i would appreciate the help on correcting.

 

first set of errors is:
