How to set up custom maps for project zomboid with gportal - OUTDATED

so a lot of you asked for how to add a custom mod to your gpo server well i took that information and all those comments and i went over to the g portal team and i was like hey guys look you need they need this you need help okay because it wasn't easy and the stuff didn't save and it was a nightmare but thank you very much to the g photo team who went above and beyond and have been speaking to me every day on how to get this started even instructed me how to get through this um like setting this video up without you guys this video would not be possible so thank you to everybody that commented and thank you to the gpo support team and the cheapo team in a whole should we say hey everybody how's it going dare here and welcome back to another gpo tutorial in this video i'm going to show you how to install custom mod maps to your g-port or project zomboid server yes i am all right step one before you do anything else you're gonna need to go to steam so we're just gonna back out of that and click down here go to the workshop and for the purpose of this video we're going to be using bedford okay so you'll go to [Music] custom maps whatever it is in here i've already subscribed to it so there it is there bedford falls make sure it is installed and then what we want to do straight away before we do anything else is go and find that so we go steam steamapps common no backup uh cmaps workshop content 1080 600 522 891356 mods and bedford falls now what you want to do is click on the media folder again and the media folder again and grab all of these and click copy then what you want to do is back out of this all the way again okay and go to steam maps common project zomboid media [Music] okay and then just paste it in here okay the reason for this is sometimes it doesn't actually copy the files across it's weird so you just paste it in there i've already done that so all right backing up what you want to do again is head back to that area of um the workshop so content 1080 522 mods bedford falls media and hold this page here okay because next we're going to go on to our project zomboid server here and we're going to take note of this information download a filezilla client which will look like this and log in with the information provided to you here where it says media i want you to drag these files into that media folder so you would just call like this and drag into there okay all right so the next step is we're going to go down into server right click and edit server test spawn regions lua and we're going to click and edit and discard the file and it won't look like this but this is what it needs to look like okay so i will put this in the description on how you do it so you add all this information in okay so be that muldra ky bedford falls north south east and west now i think if i remember correctly just speaking with gpo support staff this map does not have spawn points some do some don't just to note all right moving on to the next part we're going to head over to the g portal website okay now that we're on the gpu website i want you to click on the basic settings okay and you're going to stop your server okay note this then you're going to scroll down to where the custom maps are where is the map area find it there we go so under map you're going to scroll down and hit on custom and then you're going to type in as follows very first false semicolon north semicolon south semicolon west third column mult roth uh column ky and the reason um for this is you've got that's basically what we've just put in that thing as well and it connects if you do not put this in at the end it will not work okay so you gotta make sure that that's in there and this must always be entered in the last of every map you add okay or last of every map so what you would do is if you have multiple maps in there you could have blah blah blah blah blah and then that okay so click save your changes turn your server back online okay and then load up the game and we'll connect to the server all right so now that we've got the server we'll load it up and we'll click join server and it's going to start connecting as long as the server has finished booting up and there we are we're loading in initializing the map rendering the map chunks loading into the world click to start and there we are and to confirm that this actually works i am going to [Music] join on a new account so 24 okay and save and join server so i should make a new character and have the spawn location for bedford falls there it is at the top i click next random next and play just remember this area does not have spawn locations that i can get to work but if it did it would give me an option to spawn and set location and there you go i'm now in bedford falls
