Vehicle Cover - Camouflage Your Vehicles

Unlike CarCover, which despawns vehicles, this mod keeps vehicles exactly as they are. You can even drive with the cover on if your configuration allows it. Also supports shape-changing with attachments, for example tents.

JSON Config Example:


{
  "Vehicles": [
    {
      "VehicleClassname": "CivilianSedan", // Can be colorbase
      "CamonetClassname": "VehicleCover_CivilianSedan", // Name of the camonet shape object
      "DoorSlotsToCheck": [ // Define all door slots if using ShouldDoorsBeClosedToAttach
        "CivSedanDriverDoors",
        "CivSedanCoDriverDoors",
        "CivSedanCargo1Doors",
        "CivSedanCargo2Doors",
        "CivSedanTrunk",
        "CivSedanHood"
      ],
      "CamonetShapeableSlot": "", // Slot for attachment that changes vehicle shape
      "CamonetShapeableClassname": "", // Second shape object with attachment
      "DropCamonet": 1, // Drop camonet when vehicle moves (not supported on boats)
      "SpeedToDrop": 10.0, // Speed threshold for dropping camonet (not supported on boats)
      "BlockGettingInWithCamonet": 1, // Prevents entering vehicle while camonet is attached
      "BlockDoorsWithCamonet": 1, // Prevents opening doors while camonet is attached (not supported on boats)
      "BlockAttachmentsWithCamonet": 1, // Prevents adding or removing attachments while camonet is attached
      "ShouldDoorsBeClosedToAttach": 1 // Prevents attaching camonet if any door is open (not supported on boats)
    }
}

Future Updates

  • Support for Expansion and RedFalcon helicopters. They should work now, but some additional scripts may be required.
  • Support for tarp and different types of camonets.
  • Support for multiple shape-changing slots.

Known Issues

  • A server wipe is required when installing this mod for the first time. Otherwise, all existing saved vehicles will load with a camonet attached due to serialization changes.
  • Currently, all door slots must be manually defined — working on a solution.

Information For Modders

Thanks to mmetrjuk and the guys in Enfusion Modders, especially Tree and Wardog.

The real cancer of the DayZ modding community isn’t repacking—it’s obfuscation. However, I recommend not repacking this mod for at least a few months after release, as there will be ongoing optimizations and improvements. Use your PBO to override instead.
