MapLink Hive

This mod allows server admins to link multiple maps together in a "hive", where players can move between maps with their characters and loot like you can on certain official servers.

The player is required to travel to a "transfer terminal" to initiate the map transfer (ie. a boat, helicopter, computer object etc placed with DayZ Editor).

I did not create this mod: I've simply updated and repacked it for use with DayZ 1.28, fixed a bunch of error log messages and recorded a detailed video guide on how to set the whole thing up.

All credit goes to Daemonforge who is the original creator of this mod.

Install this mod like any other mod (there are many guides out there) - copy it into your server folder and add it to your server mods list. It must be run on both server and client. Make sure to copy the .bikey into your server keys.

Note: This mod requires Community Framework to function - https://steamproxy-script.pipiskins.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1559212036.

There is a YouTube video on my channel explaining how the mod works: https://youtu.be/1slJ5msQiVA

There are example config files and more info in the "extras" folder inside the mod.

NOTE: In the video guide I state that I thought respawning on the same server you travel to was bugged (ie. you couldn't make it so transferring from Chernarus to Livonia and dying in Livonia allowed you to respawn in Livonia and not back on Chernarus) - this is wrong.

It's easy to set it up so the player can respawn on whatever server they travel to, just make the respawn server the same server - eg:



All credit goes to Daemonforge: I simply tidied up his mod for the latest 1.28 DayZ codebase. Check out his original mod code (and download the required API webservice installer) on his GitHub:

Because this mod stores data in a 3rd-party database separate to the game files, not all mods will be compatible with it by default. But I've included some compatibility .pbo files inside the "extras" folder for adding cross-server persistence to mods I use on my server (eg. DayZ Dog and Terje's Skills/Medicine).


You can repack this mod if you like, and do anything else you want with it for that matter. Just make sure to abide by Daemonforge's original license obligations and keep in mind my future updates won't be applied so make sure to check back for new versions if you notice any bugs.

All my mods are free and open source, but it takes an enormous amount of time to put some of these mods together. If I've helped you out, please consider helping me buy my next coffee! I don't expect it, but I very much appreciate it.
