Host Your Own DayZ Server in Under 10 Minutes! (Windows + SteamCMD)
This is guide on how to host a DayZ server to play with friends. I will no longer be providing "free" troubleshooting, I want to value my time towards new content so if something doesn't work out, google it :)
I test everything before I make these videos and if it works for me, it should work for you.
