How to configure the Expansion Map Markers

Where do you need to go ?

Go to mpmissions\dayzOffline.<mapname>\expansion\settings and open the MapSettings.json

How does it work ?

{
    "m_UID": "MyUniqueID101",
    "m_Visibility": 6,
    "m_Is3D": 1,
    "m_Text": "My Marker Name !",
    "m_IconName": "IconName",
    "m_Color": -13710223,
    "m_Position": [
        11882.0,
        143.0,
        12466.0
    ],
    "m_Locked": 0,
    "m_Persist": 1
},

REMOVE the , from }, to the last marker config (look at the example at the end of the page)

m_UID

The UID is the unique identity of a marker, this mean it need to be unique to be valid. This ID can have numbers or letters.

m_Visibility

We recommend you to keep it to 6 since his behavior is affected by the other settings and might not do what you really expect from this setting.

• 0 = Not visible.
• 2 = Visible on the World (If "m_Is3D" is set to 1, you should probably put "m_Visibility" to 2).
• 4 = Visible on the Map only.
• 6 = Visible on the Map and on the World (If "m_Is3D" is set to 1, you should probably put "m_Visibility" to 2).

m_Is3D

• 0 = Only visible on the 2d map
• 1 = visible in 3D while playing and on the 2d map

m_Text

This text will be displayed next to the marker name. You can also keep it empty if you want.

m_IconName

What Icon will be used for the marker. See List of default icon names

m_Color

The color of the marker, use this website to generate the color you want to apply on your marker !

Enter the RGBA values and then click on the button "ARGB → int" to generate the color code you will need.

• R: Red
• G: Green
• B: Blue
• A: Opacity from 0 (can't be seen) to 255 (very visible, opaque)

You can use this website to generate the RGBA color, however watch out this website generate the A value from 0 to 1 instead of 255 !

m_Position

The position of the marker in X Y Z coordinates.

Any admin tools and editors should be able to give you this values. You could go where you want your marker to be and check your player position for example.

m_Locked

Not used for server markers as they are not draggable.

m_Persist

Also not used for server markers. This setting is meant for modders to create non permanent personal (local) markers.

Some examples !
