If the map comes with it's own DayZ files, use those... Enable SP in the menu... And don't replace them with stock 1.7.4.4. files.

Sometimes, you will find what the map porters will simply use an older version of DayZ, but update certain files and change the version number to match the current release. This is not how it should be done, but they do it to reduce downtime between versions for server admins.

This is why Namalsk may (still) be running 1.7.3. at its core, even though it says 1.7.4.4.

This is also the reason it takes a while for maps to be updated whenever a new version of DayZ is released and why some are a version behind (because the custom features don't work with the new version and they have to find workarounds).

You also have to know what Kronzky did to give us SP missions from the original MP version.

This is why you should also set up a private test server and see if things work they way they should in a virtual MP environment because this can give you a clue why things aren't working in SP.
