About UF Online

What is the Universal Framework?

The Universal Framework (UF) is a DayZ mod framework by DaemonForge. It gives server mods a shared backend: persistent object and player storage, cross-server messaging, global variables, mod-published settings pages, AI chat/voice for NPCs, and Discord-linked player accounts. Mods talk to it through one simple JSON API — and many community mods already do.

What is UF Online?

UF Online is the hosted version of that backend. Instead of running the UF service yourself (a Windows service, a MongoDB, backups, updates), you point your servers at our cloud with a three-line UFramework.json and get the same API — plus the parts that are impractical to self-host:

• Hives — a shared database for a group of servers. Servers in one hive see the same objects, players and globals; separate hives are fully isolated worlds.
• The workspace — logs, a data browser/editor, globals and mod-settings JSON editors, knowledge bases, index insights and one-click export (no lock-in) per hive.
• AI & voice — chat models for NPCs, knowledge-base search, text-to-speech and image generation, metered in credits with unlimited budget-tier chat on paid plans.
• Discord integration — one bot install links your guild for player sign-up rules, roles and branded link pages.
• Migration — import a dump from a self-hosted V2 install, and export everything back out any time. The mod itself is never modified.

Who runs it?

UF Online is operated by DaemonForge Development, the developer of the Universal Framework mod. See the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy.
