Important Notes Before Installation

⚠️ To ensure a stable and hassle-free experience, keep these tips in mind:

• Install Banov on a Vanilla Server: Begin with a clean installation without any other mods to avoid conflicts, if possible, reinstall your server before adding Banov to ensure a clean setup.
• Mod Compatibility: Some Workshop mods may be incompatible with Banov, which could lead to server crashes or startup failures.
• Add Mods Gradually: After installing Banov, add other mods one at a time, testing your server after each installation to identify potential conflicts.
• DayZ Updates Warning: Be aware that DayZ updates may break the Banov map until the developer releases a compatible update.

How to Install the Banov Map

1. Stop your server.
2. Go to the Mod Manager in your game panel.
3. Locate Banov in the Community Maps section.
4. Click Install to add the Banov map to your server.

Important Notes for Updating

⚠️ How to Update the Banov Map and mpmission on Your Server

• To update the Banov workshop map, update it like a regular workshop mod using the Steam Workshop button.
• To update the Banov mpmission, go to the Mod Manager and press Update under the Banov map; this will create an empty.Banov_UPDATED folder with the updated mpmission for you to later cherry-pick/merge .xml changes if you have custom modifications.
• The update will also copy persistence files into the empty.Banov_UPDATED folder; if you don’t have custom .xml modifications, you can set this mpmission in your Config.cfg file to automatically run the updated version.
