Tools Required

PBO tool which can be found in the tools folder.
(NOTE: Make sure before you pack to the .pbo, you set the prefix to "z\addons\dayz_server")

How To Pack PBO Correctly With PboManager

Open PboManager
Right click dayz_server folder and select PBO Manager>Pack into "dayz_server.pbo"
After packing the folder, click the green icon on PboManager and open the "dayz_server.pbo" you just packed.
Next click on the blue icon to check the file properties.
If you see "prefix" and "z\addons\dayz_server", your ok.
If you don't see it, your still ok, right click the white area and select "Add".
Under property, add "prefix", and under value, add "z\addons\dayz_server" (without the quotes)
Close the PboManager and upload the file if you didn't pack it on the server.
Now restart the server.

Installing Database:

You need to have MySQL version 5.5 and up. (Work great on 5.5.31-0+wheezy1 (debian). Older version have problem importing the .SQL file)
For Windows servers, WAMP works pretty good. http://www.wampserver.com/en/
Import \sqlfile\dayz_origins.sql into your database

(NOTE: If your having issues installing the functions, and get a message saying you don't have permission to install, you must install the functions as a 'root' user)

Installing Files:

Install the latest OA Beta Patch (http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php)
Create a new folder copy the files from the OA folder into it. (This help retains your original files if you have to start over)
Copy the Addons folder from the Arma 2 folder into the same folder.
Copy the map (@DayzOrigins) into the same folder. (Downloaded from Dayz Commander or other tool)
Edit the following files:
--- \dayz_1.origins.tavi\config.cfg
--- \dayz_1.origins.tavi\HiveExt.ini
--- \dayz_1.origins.tavi\BattlEye\BEServer.cfg
--- \MPMissions\dayz_1.origins.tavi\Debug\player_spawn_2.sqf (More Details Below)
--- \MPMissions\dayz_1.origins.tavi\Camera\loginCamera.sqf (More Details Below)

Editing player_spawn_2.sqf:

Look for 'Visit: www.epm-gaming.co.uk' on line 361, 385, and 416, and change it to your own website.

Editing loginCamera.sqf:

Look for:

_welcomeMessage = format["Welcome to EPM Gamings's GB 500 #2 Server %1, Enjoy your stay!",format["%1", name player]];

Edit this line.

Copy all the files from your git download into your folder. (Make sure to maintain the same file structure)
Install your PBO tool if you haven't already.
Use the PBO tool to pack the \@dayz_1.origins.tavi\addons\dayz_server folder. (NOTE: You can also pack the folder in the MPMissions folder, but it isn't required)

Optional How-Tos

Adjusting Day/Night Time

Edit \MPMissions\dayz_1.origins.tavi\init.sqf

Look for:
[4,true,true] execFSM "core_time.fsm";

Default is currently 3hr day/night.

Other examples:
--- [4,true,true] execFSM "core_time.fsm"; (3hr day/night)
--- [3,true,true,12] execFSM "core_time.fsm"; (4hr day / 1 hr night)

To disable completely, just add a double slash to the front of the line '//'

Auto Refuelling

To enable auto refuelling:

Edit \MPMissions\dayz_1.origins.tavi\init.sqf

Look for:
//Remove the double slashes on the line below to enable auto refuelling //[] execVM "Scripts\kh_actions.sqf";

Remove the double slashes to enable the add-on, save and restart the server. (NOTE: Folders inside the \MPMissions\ folder don't have to be packed to .pbo format)

DMR Damage Scaling Removed

Edit file: MPMissions/dayz_1.origins.tavi/BASTARDS/fn_damageHandler.sqf

Look at lines 81-88. -If you would like DMR's to have the same damage as they would in cherno then keep or delete lines that are commented out starting with " /* if (_unit == player) then { " if you want the new style DMR damage they uncomment out the code.

Increasing/Decreasing Zombies

Edit \MPMissions\dayz_1.origins.tavi\BASTARDS\player_spawnCheck look for:

On line 5:
_maxZombies = 25;

Further down the page:

switch (_nearbytype) do { default { _maxZombies = 10; }; case "NameLocal": { _maxZombies = 10; }; case "NameVillage": { _maxZombies = 15; }; case "NameCity": { _maxZombies = 20; }; case "NameCityCapital": { _maxZombies = 20; }; };

Edit the values to your preference.
