I'm testing a mod I've created and I'd like to test it on dedicated mutiplayer server without uploading the mod to the Steam Workshop. But I can't figure out how. Anyone know how to install a non-workshop mod on a dedicated server? I'm assuming I have to run the dedicated server in non-steam mode (but can run in steam mod if needed). I've installed the mod into these locations, but no luck... C:\Users\[USER_NAME]\Zomboid\mods C:\Users\[USER_NAME]\Zomboid\server\mods E:\Games\Project Zomboid\server\mods E:\Games\Project Zomboid\mods E:\Games\Project Zomboid\server\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\12345\mods *(tried to mimic the workshop convention, also tried to update the appworkshop_108600.acf file but not sure what the manifest and other timestamp values should be, etc) I've included the default.txt in all mod locations above. Have tried different combinations of adding the mod name and workshop ID to the servertest.ini file (sometimes only populating the Mods value but leaving the WorkshopItems value blank). Any ideas/pointers are much appreciated!

Hello everybody ! I am looking for a few days to install a PZ server with vehicles on my vps debian 8 (x64) but impossible, every time errors, problems ect. Would someone have a tutorial or clear and precise information to provide me to allow me to install the server? For info I already try spiffo service but it does not install the right version (no vehicle), I want the version with the vehicles! Thank you in advance. Best regards

Hey Folks, i tried the last hours to set up a linux server for Project Zomboid and it was very difficult to find some usefull informations, because all of it was very old. So i want to share my short solution of setting up the server successfull at the end. The instruction is for users with basic to advanced knowledge about linux. 1. Open the ports of you Router for UDP/TCP: 16261 bis 162XX (XX = 61+<number of players>) 8766 bis 8767 27015 (TCP should be enough) 2. install steamcmd and login (for login: "login <username> <password>") Follow this instructions: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD#Linux 3. after login insert: "app_update 380870 validate" 4. go to the PZ folder in Steam/steamapps/common/... or where you forced the installation to. 5. "./start-server.sh" (give it some time, the process is not ready in a few seconds) 6. insert and confirm an admin password and wait until the process shows "Server Started" (or something like this) 7. shut it down and go to the folder: /home/<user>/Zomboid/Server/ 8. edit servertest.ini (more or less important stats: MaxPlayers / RCONPassword / Password / server_browser_announced_ip; If you want to host a public Server, you need to edit the PUBLIC stats) 9. start the server with "./start-server.sh" again. You should be able to connect now 10. optional: start/stop Script to start the server, create a new file with a name like "startZomboid.sh" and insert (Maybe you need to create the "output" folder in you user-space first): #!/bin/bash nohup ./start-server.sh &>/home/<user>/output/zomboid & disown and to stop the server create "startZomboid.sh" and insert: #!/bin/bash TEST=`ps -e | grep ProjectZomboid6 2>&1` kill $TEST | cut -d' ' -f1 If you have any questions, hints or improvements, tell me

First of all, let me say that I couldn't find the original mod post on this forum and the other forum it is on won't let me log on. I've been trying to to this for a while now and can't seem to find the download link I need. I am using the latest PZ update out there, so I need the hot fix for this mod. I cant find the link to the hot fix anywhere and its really frustrating So, If anyone could help me out by giving me a link to the hot fix for this mod...http://www.theindiestone.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=15407 I would be very grateful. I'm probably just being stupid and it is an easy thing to find :/
