Pripyat Nomads: server news https://nomadsgaming.com/pripyat/ Announcements, changes and notices for the Pripyat Nomads DayZ server. en-us Thu, 22 Oct 2026 17:30:04 +0000 Announcement: Open for business https://nomadsgaming.com/pripyat/#news-2026-10-22-delta-open https://nomadsgaming.com/pripyat/#news-2026-10-22-delta-open Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:00:00 -0400 Announcement We're back. Infected and wildlife are spawning again, and I added some new items around the map. The server is now open again.

New mods

  • I switched the map to Pripyat Delta. It's the same terrain with all the same buildings.
  • Motorbikes: The new vanilla mopeds and dirtbikes are now in the server.
  • Acoustic guitars: Working guitars that let you play music and tab sheets.

What you need to do

  • Join through the DZSA Launcher and let it download the new mods.
  • You can unsubscribe from PripyatGamma since we don't use it anymore.
  • No wipe was necessary. Characters, bases, stashes, and vehicles are all where you left them.

If something is broken, let me know on Discord.

]]> Notice: The Zone has gone quiet https://nomadsgaming.com/pripyat/#news-2026-10-21-map-delta https://nomadsgaming.com/pripyat/#news-2026-10-21-map-delta Wed, 21 Oct 2026 21:00:00 -0400 Notice DayZ 1.30 broke the Pripyat map mod we run (PripyatGamma) and it no longer loads navigation data, so infected and animals don't spawn. There's nothing I can do to the server files or config. The map's author has stopped supporting this version and will remove it from the Workshop on November 1.

Fix incoming

  • I'm switching to Pripyat Delta. Same author's new version of the map, built for 1.30.
  • Before the switch I'll check that our custom changes work with the new terrain.
  • I'll make another post with a date, what you need to download, and whether we need a wipe.

Expected downtime

  • The server is now locked while I work on it.
  • I hope to have the changes tuned and tested by Saturday, October 24 so we can playtest during the weekend.
  • Playtest will be password-protected and the password shared on Discord.

For a week the lights were off. Bohemia pushed their 1.30 update, the mods were updated, and the server sat dead because I was busy. That's all fixed now. Your characters, bases and stashes are all still there.

Joining

  • Join through the DZSA Launcher and let it update your mods. The auto-run mod has a new name, UnlimitedALe.
  • You don't need the Badlands DLC. None of its content is used on this server.

What's new

  • The Apocalypse Mustang is out there somewhere. Only two exist at a time.
  • New vehicles now spawn with manual gearboxes. The Humvee is the only exception.
  • New weapon colors from 1.30: CZ527, SKS and Mosin variants, a tan Mlock, plus the police baton.
  • Melee attacks cost stamina again. Running, sprinting and climbing stay unlimited.

News from my bunker

  • From now on I post the news myself on the website and to our Discord.
  • You can follow in any feed reader with the RSS feed.

Problems? Bring them to the Discord.
