DayZ P3D Explorer

Search DayZ P3D models for LODs, skeletons, selections, proxies, and model.cfg — all in one place.

What's new?

2026-10-17 — Selection membership

  • Selections per LOD — each LOD lists all named selections (with point/face counts)
  • Shared vertices — selections that cover the same vertex set on a LOD are grouped together.
  • Proxy attachments — proxies are nested under the parent selection that contains their points (e.g. codelock under a door).

2026-10-16 — Public API & expansion filter

  • Public API v1 — GET /v1/ for search, model metadata, and preview image redirects. CORS-enabled, no API key. Docs: api-docs.php. Rate limits: 60 JSON req/min and 120 preview redirects/min per IP (plus daily caps).
  • Expansion filter — Pack chips for Vanilla / Livonia / Takistan / Sakhal (path-based). Multi-select via ?exp= on the site and /v1/search. Sakhal is no longer hard-hidden.

2026-10-15 — DayZ 1.30

  • Updated to DayZ 1.30 — re-indexed against the 1.30 game data (ODOL v56): 10,616 models, including 2,433 new ones, mostly the new Takistan buildings, characters, plants, rocks, gear and weapons.
  • Turntable previews for new models — rendered for new 1.30 content; browse-list thumbnails now fall back to a turntable frame when Sam's / iZurvive have no image.
  • Known gaps — 49 new models can't be converted yet and show as errors; 180 older models that the new converter can't read still show their 1.29 data.
  • Faster search indexing — rebuilding the search index now takes seconds instead of minutes.

2026-08-04

  • Turntable previews — experimental server-rendered 360° previews for indexed models (starting with gear/containers).
  • Turntable controls — drag to rotate, scroll to zoom, double-click to reset zoom.
  • Pop-out turntable — open the preview in a larger separate window via the ↗ button.

Earlier

  • P3D metadata explorer with LODs, skeletons, selections, proxies, and model.cfg parsing.
  • Sam's Object Finder preview images where available.

About DayZ P3D Explorer

Browse and search indexed DayZ .p3d metadata — LODs, skeletons, named selections, proxies, textures, materials, and parsed model.cfg. Metadata only; no mesh files are served.

Object preview images are courtesy of Sam's Object Finder.

Public JSON API for other projects: /v1/ — see API Docs for endpoints and rate limits.
