What happened?

I run a PC DayZ community server hosted by Nitrado. The server is running normally and players can connect using Direct Connect, but the server does not appear in the official DayZ Launcher Community server browser.

Server details
Server name: After The Fall
Map: Chernarusplus
Slots: 10
Server IP: 95.156.198.151
Game port: 10300
Steam Query port: 10301
Host: Nitrado
DayZ version: 1.29.163709

Searching for "After The Fall" in the Community tab does not return the server, even after leaving the server running continuously to allow time for master-server registration.

The server itself appears to be operating correctly:

  • Direct Connect to 95.156.198.151:10300 works.

  • Steam Game Servers/Favorites successfully detects the server using 95.156.198.151:10301.

  • Steam correctly reports the name "After The Fall", map "chernarusplus" and player count.

  • Nitrado confirms the assigned game port is 10300 and query port is 10301.

  • serverDZ.cfg contains steamqueryport = 10301;.

  • The server RPT shows the server starting and operating normally.

  • Players are able to connect and play.

I contacted Nitrado support. They advised that the public DayZ server list is controlled by the game's master-server system and that they cannot manually force or check registration from their side.

The issue therefore appears to be that the server is reachable and its Steam query endpoint is functioning, but it is not being returned by the official DayZ Community server browser.

I have seen previous reports describing similar behaviour where a server works through Direct Connect/Steam query but is missing from the Community tab.

Expected behaviour:
The running and publicly queryable community server should appear when searching for "After The Fall" in the official DayZ Launcher Community tab.

Actual behaviour:
The server does not appear in Community search despite being online, directly connectable and successfully queryable through Steam.

I can provide the full server RPT and serverDZ.cfg, and I have screenshots showing both the missing Community search result and the same server responding successfully in Steam Game Servers.

Reproduction steps
  • Start the DayZ PC community server "After The Fall" hosted by Nitrado.

  • Allow the server to fully start and remain online.

  • Confirm the server is reachable by Direct Connect at 95.156.198.151:10300.

  • Add 95.156.198.151:10301 to Steam Game Servers/Favorites and confirm that Steam successfully detects "After The Fall".

  • Open the official DayZ Launcher.

  • Select Servers → Community.

  • Search for "After The Fall".

  • The server does not appear in the Community results despite being online and responding to Steam queries.

  • Restarting the launcher/refreshing the Community list does not resolve the issue.

    Hello.
    This is unfortunately a known issue that is being looked into.

    Is it a issue with just servers from Nitrado or is it a widespread issue from all server providers?
