Rosewood Ridge
A 24/7 DayZ Chernarus server tuned for survival that respects your time — boosted loot, persistent vehicles, and custom features you won't find in vanilla.
What Makes the Ridge Different
4.5× Boosted Loot
Food, drink, weapons, ammo, medical gear, backpacks, and survival tools spawn at 4.5× vanilla rates. Less scavenging grind, more surviving.
Food Never Spoils
Food decay is disabled server-wide. That canned bacon you stashed last week is still good.
Vehicles Never Despawn
Park it, drive it, crash it — your vehicle stays where you left it. Even damaged vehicles are never cleaned up by the server.
3× Wildlife
Triple the deer, boar, cows, and game animals across the map. Hunting is a real way to live off the land.
Flag Pole Safe Zones
Territory flags stop infected from spawning within 60m of your base — but they can still chase you home, and siege packs prowl the perimeter. Build smart.
Barbed Wire Hurts Infected
A Rosewood Ridge exclusive: mounted barbed wire cripples and kills infected that push through it. Fortify like it matters.
Custom Server Mod
The Rosewood Ridge mod adds quality-of-life features like charging 9V batteries in the battery charger — fast. More on the way.
Long Persistence
Backpacks persist 14 days, tents 45 days. Your stashes and camps survive real life getting in the way.
Joining Is Easy
Direct connect to 104.245.246.174
In the DayZ Launcher, add the server by IP (no port needed — the default works). It's all on the Steam Workshop now, so the launcher lists everything you need.
Accept the required mods
The launcher prompts you to subscribe to the server's mods (including Rosewood Ridge Core and Rosewood Ridge Music). Accept, and Steam downloads and enables them automatically.
Launch and survive
Hit Play, connect, and you're on the coast. That's it — no manual downloads, no folders.
Our Custom Mods
Two mods built in-house for the Ridge, now on the Steam Workshop: Rosewood Ridge Core (quality-of-life features) and Rosewood Ridge Music (cassette mixtapes for the boombox and car radio). Both come down automatically when you join — or subscribe directly below.
