Zens Tire Rack

What Is This?

This mod adds a craftable tire rack to the game. Use 30 nails on 1 sheet metal to make a tire rack.

The tire rack stores 8 wheels (all vanilla wheels except for double truck wheels as they're massive), a tire iron, a tire repair kit and a gasoline canister.

Installation Instructions:

Install this mod like any other mod - copy it into your server folder and add it to your mods list. Make sure to copy the .bikey into your server keys if you're not using a server management tool like OmegaManager which does that automatically.

Make sure to merge the types.xml inside the mod folder for "Zen_TireRack" into your server types and adjust the item's lifetime, or the racks will despawn on server restart and/or if no players are around. Default persistence included in my types file is 4 weeks.

This mod must be installed on both the server & client.

Known Issues:

- Doesn't look great when stacked with giant tires (truck tires, Humvee tires etc). Not much can be done about that with this particular mod given the limitations of the rack model dimensions (as far as I can tell)

3D Model Credits:

The rack model was free on Sketchfab under the CC Attribution license. The only modification I made was to remove the included tire models and replace them with DayZ wheel proxies.

Repack & Source Code:

Unfortunately due to lack of time I can't maintain all of my mods all of the time. I do my best, but these mods are offered as-is. If there's a problem, you have the source code and my permission to fix it yourself and upload a fixed version to the workshop without any credit necessary. It's all free.

You can repack this mod if you like, and do anything else you want with it for that matter. The source code is on my GitHub at www.zenarchist.com

Buy Me A Coffee / Contact Me:

All my mods are free and open source, but it takes an enormous amount of time to put some of these mods together. If I've helped you out, please consider helping me buy my next coffee! I don't expect it, but I very much appreciate it.

To contact me you can send me a message there too - I get an insane amount of messages so it's the best way for me to filter out the noise and focus on people who are willing to support my work with a coffee first:
