DayZ Editor (.dze)

This is the main file format of the DayZ Editor. Use this for saving / loading your files.

DZE format

Note: Editor saves by default in a binarized format. This allows builds to load faster on Editor and on server with DayZEditorLoader. But you will not be able to manually edit the file in text files, you will still be able to load the file inside the Editor, and even switch between them if you need to. This new binned file may be volatile, and if corrupted can not be recovered. There will be a backup automatically created to mitigate this when saving this way.
