⚙️ What Is VPPAdminTools?

VPPAdminTools (VanillaPlusPlus Admin Tools) is a powerful Steam Workshop mod that gives you a graphical admin interface inside DayZ.
It’s designed for server owners and moderators who want to:

• Manage players (kick, ban, heal, teleport)
• Spawn items, vehicles, and structures
• Edit the map and build bases dynamically
• Control the weather, time, and server messages
• Use a clean and intuitive UI instead of console commands

It’s widely used across the DayZ community for both PvE and PvP servers because of its reliability and simplicity.

---

4. Click Install

Click the green Install button or download icon (⬇️).
GGServers will automatically download and install the mod to your server folder.

⚠️ Important: Also install the Community Framework (CF) mod the same way — it’s required for VPPAdminTools to function properly.

5. Restart Your Server

After installation, click Restart on your panel to apply the mod.

---

6. Check the Mod Load Order

Go to Startup Settings → scroll to Additional Mods, and ensure it looks like this:

7. Configure Your Admin Access

When the server starts successfully, the mod will automatically create configuration folders inside your server profile.

1. Go to Management → Files.
2. Navigate to: /profiles/VPPAdminTools/Permissions/
3. Edit the file named SuperAdmins.txt.
4. Add your Steam64ID on a new line — this grants you full admin access.
   Example: 76561198000000000
5. Save the file and restart your server.

8. In-Game Login and Controls

1. Join your server using your Steam account.
2. Press END to enable admin mode.
3. Press HOME to open the VPPAdminTools main menu.
