Why HavenToolZ is Different

Built by gamers. Maintained by gamers. For gamers.

🎮

Community-Driven

HavenToolZ isn't a corporate product. We're a community-run project built by DayZ server owners who got tired of complicated, expensive tools that gatekeep server modding. We believe every server owner deserves access to powerful, easy-to-use tools—regardless of their technical skill or budget.

🆓

100% Free for Everyone

Every single tool is completely free. No paywalls, no subscription tiers, no hidden features. When we release a new tool, it's available to everyone immediately. We're passionate about making DayZ server modding accessible to all, not profiting from it.

💝

Donations Support Development

Donations are never required, but they help keep the lights on and development moving forward. As a thank you, donors get a shiny role in our Discord community and priority support when they need help. But here's what they don't get: early access to new tools. When a tool drops, everyone gets it at the same time—because that's fair.

⚡

No Gatekeeping

When a new tool drops, everyone gets it at the same time. We don't hold features hostage or create "premium" versions. The community deserves better than that. We release updates, improvements, and new tools to everyone simultaneously— because that's how it should be.

🔧

Built From Experience

Our team runs DayZ servers ourselves. We know the pain of wrestling with XML files at 3 AM trying to fix spawn rates. We've been there, done that, and built these tools to solve real problems we actually face. Every feature comes from firsthand experience, not guesswork.

🤝

Community Support

Join our Discord community where server owners help each other, share configurations, and collaborate on making DayZ better for everyone. We're not just providing tools—we're building a supportive community where beginners and veterans alike can learn and grow together.

Our Promise

HavenToolZ will always prioritize the community over profit. We're here to make DayZ server modding easier, more accessible, and more enjoyable for everyone. Whether you donate or not, you'll always have full access to every tool we build. That's our commitment to you and the DayZ community.

Our Sponsors

These awesome DayZ server communities sponsor HavenToolZ, helping us keep all tools 100% free for everyone. Check out their servers and join their communities!

Restart your server
The bag will now spawn with the configured items

💡 Tips & Best Practices:

Bag Capacity: Each bag has a slot limit. The tool warns if you add too many items.
Spawn Chances: Use values less than 1.0 for variety (e.g., 0.5 = 50% chance item spawns)
Survival Kits: Include knife, matches, canteen, bandages, and food
Medical Kits: Fill First Aid Kits with bandages, antibiotics, and saline bags
Ammo Boxes: Pre-fill AmmoBox containers with specific ammunition types

🎯 Tips & Best Practices:

Use placeholders to make messages dynamic (server name, port, time remaining)
Set up countdown timers to warn players before server restarts
Welcome messages with a short delay (1-2 minutes) feel more natural
Avoid message spam - use reasonable repeat intervals (15+ minutes)
Include Discord/website links in periodic messages for community building

⚙️ Globals Editor

Configure all server-wide settings for your DayZ server including spawning, loot, timers, and more.

📌 How It Works:

Live value display shows current setting next to each slider
Generates globals.xml compatible with DayZ server

📋 Installation Instructions:

Download or copy the generated XML
Navigate to your server folder: mpmissions/dayzOffline.<map>/db/
Save the file as globals.xml (backup original first!)
Restart your server
Settings will now be active

⚡ Performance Impact:

High Impact: Animal/Zombie counts, Initial spawn percentage
Medium Impact: Cleanup timers, Respawn settings
Low Impact: Login/Logout timers, Flag settings
Adjust values incrementally and monitor server performance
Higher values require better server hardware and bandwidth

💡 Common Configurations:

High Loot Server: InitialSpawn: 300-500%, More zombies/animals
PvP Server: Fast login/logout (5s), Less hopping timer
Survival Server: Normal loot (100%), Longer cleanup times
RP Server: Lower zombie count, Longer player body timer
Hardcore Server: Low loot (50-75%), Fast cleanup, Max zombies

Gas zones are contaminated areas that require NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) protection. Players without proper gear (gas mask + filters) will take continuous damage inside these zones. Gas zones are perfect for:

Military Areas - Tier 4 loot zones requiring NBC gear
Crash Sites - Helicopter/plane crashes with hazardous materials
Event Zones - Special areas for PvP or high-risk loot
Custom POIs - Add danger to any location on your map

📦 Start with a Preset (Optional)

Click a preset to load example zones, then customize the coordinates and settings

⚙️ Your Gas Zones

🛡️ Safe Spawn Positions

Safe positions ensure players don't spawn inside gas zones. Add coordinates where players can safely spawn. Format: One coordinate per line as X, Z (example: 5000, 10000)

💡 Console Players: Copy the SafePositions array from vanilla DayZ's cfgEffectArea.json to ensure compatibility
