This is almost always whitelisting. On a non-whitelisted server the vehicles spawn and persist but the engine is disabled by design.
  1. Open $profile:\CZAutoz_Whitelist.log on your server and look for the vehicle’s line — it will say NOT WHITELISTED with a reason.
  2. If it says your IP isn’t registered, whitelist it in #ip-whitelisting.
  3. If it says port mismatch, the registered IP is right but the port doesn’t match — re-check the -port your server runs on.
  4. If it says the API was unreachable, your host is blocking the server’s outbound internet — allow it, and the check will pass on retry.
After whitelisting, restart the server (or wait for the automatic re-check).
DayZ 1.29 changed how vehicle lights work, which left lights stuck off on older builds. Update to the latest version of the pack/tier (see the Vehicles Changelog) — every vehicle has been migrated to the 1.29 light system.Lights only show when the engine is running and a working battery is fitted — so if the engine won’t start (see above), the lights won’t either.
No. As of the DayZ 1.29 release the vehicle mods no longer depend on Community Framework. You can remove @CF from your load order unless another mod on your server still requires it. Removing CF will not affect the vehicles.
A spawn problem is a loot/economy or load-order issue, not whitelisting (whitelisting only affects the engine, not spawning):
  • Make sure the vehicle’s classnames (and its wheels/doors) are in your types.xml or placed via your trader/events.
  • Make sure the mod pack is loaded on both client and server, and the PBOs are signed with a key present in the server Keys\ folder.
No — a pack/tier and a standalone mod of the same vehicle both define that vehicle, so loading both at once will conflict. Run either the pack or the standalone for a given vehicle, not both.
The vehicles use vanilla DayZ car parts: a car battery, spark plug, radiator (where applicable), and their wheels. There are no custom battery/part items to add to your economy — only the vehicle’s own classnames, wheels and doors.
