Important Notes Before Installation

⚠️ To ensure a stable and hassle-free experience, keep these tips in mind:
  • Install Bitterroot on a Vanilla Server: Begin with a clean installation without any other mods to avoid conflicts, if possible, reinstall your server before adding Bitterroot to ensure a clean setup.
  • Mod Compatibility: Some Workshop mods may be incompatible with Bitterroot, which could lead to server crashes or startup failures.
  • Add Mods Gradually: After installing Bitterroot, 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 Bitterroot map until the developer releases a compatible update.

  4. Click Install to add the Bitterroot map to your server.

Important Notes for Updating

⚠️ To successfully update the Bitterroot map and mpmission on your server, follow these important tips
  • To update the Bitterroot workshop map, update it like a regular workshop mod using the Steam Workshop button.
  • To update the Bitterroot mpmission, go to the Mod Manager and press Update under the Bitterroot map; this will create an empty.Bitterrootfrost_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.Bitterrootfrost_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.
