Interactive Map Editor - Visual DayZ Configuration

The Old Way

The Coordinate Nightmare

Configuring spawn points and territories means dealing with endless coordinate values. One wrong number and your spawn is in the ocean.

Manual XML Editing

Opening XML files in text editors, manually typing X, Y, Z coordinates, hoping you got them right. No visual feedback.

Endless Testing Cycles

Edit coordinates, start server, teleport in-game to check, realize it's wrong, shut down, edit again. Repeat for hours.

No Spatial Context

Numbers like "7234.5, 12456.8" mean nothing. You can't visualize where spawns are or if they overlap with other zones.

Visual Configuration

What You Can Configure Visually

Click, drag, and export. Every configuration file that needs coordinates can be edited on the interactive map.

Player Spawn Points

cfgplayerspawnpoints.xml

Configure fresh spawns along the coast, hop spawns inland, and travel spawns anywhere. Color-coded markers show spawn distribution at a glance.

Simple Workflow

How It Works

Five simple steps to perfect coordinate-based configurations

1

Upload or Start Fresh

Import your existing configuration file to see all current spawns on the map, or start with a blank canvas for new configurations.

2

See Everything on the Map

All your spawns, territories, and zones appear as visual markers. Color-coded and labeled for instant recognition.

3

Click, Drag, Resize

Click to add new points, drag to move them, scroll to resize zones. Intuitive controls make configuration feel natural.

4

Export Perfect Files

One click exports your configuration with perfect coordinates. Valid XML/JSON ready to upload to your server.
