Before opening it, make sure:

• DayZ is installed through Steam

• Steam is open and online

• DayZ is fully updated

• You have enough storage space for the server mods

Pay attention to the server name and map so you join the correct one.

Click the Play button or triangle beside the server you want to join.

DZSA Launcher will check which mods the server requires and begin downloading any that you are missing.

Do not close DZSA Launcher or Steam while the mods are downloading.

The first connection can take a while because some Exiled servers have a large mod list. You can check the download progress through DZSA Launcher or the Downloads section in Steam.

5. Connect to the Server

Once every required mod is installed and updated, DZSA Launcher will:

• Load the correct server mods

• Open DayZ

• Connect you directly to the selected Exiled server

Do not manually activate extra mods. Let DZSA Launcher load the correct ones for the server.

6. Favorite the Server

Click the star or favorite button beside the server.

This will make the server easier to find the next time you open DZSA Launcher.
