Guide [Source] DayZ SA 1.29 — Correct Skeleton Bone IDs & Global Offsets

[byte_corvus]

Anyone still struggling to get clean skeleton renders in DayZ? If your ESP looks like a twisted pile of limbs after the latest 1.29 update, you are likely hitting the wrong bone indices or your segment connections are botched.

I managed to dump the updated block for the Enfusion engine. These are the verified global offsets and the specific bone IDs for both survivors and the infected. If you're building an external or internal, these should get your visual state back in order.

Skeleton & Bone Configuration
If you can render points but the "bones" aren't connecting correctly, verify against these ID maps. Note that infected use a slightly different structure compared to players.

Spoiler: Bone IDs & Segments

Player Bone IDs:

PLAYER_BONE_IDS = {
    "head": 24, "neck": 21, "spine2": 20, "spine1": 19, "pelvis": 0,
    "left_shoulder": 61, "left_elbow": 63, "left_hand": 65,
    "right_shoulder": 94, "right_elbow": 97, "right_hand": 99,
    "left_hip": 1, "left_knee": 4, "left_foot": 6,
    "right_hip": 9, "right_knee": 12, "right_foot": 14
}

Infected (Zombie) Bone IDs:

INFECTED_BONE_IDS = {
    "head": 24, "spine": 19, "pelvis": 0,
    "left_shoulder": 53, "left_elbow": 27, "left_hand": 29,
    "right_shoulder": 56, "right_elbow": 59, "right_hand": 60,
    "left_hip": 8, "left_knee": 10, "left_elbow_leg": 13, "left_foot": 14,
    "right_hip": 1, "right_knee": 3, "right_elbow_leg": 6, "right_foot": 7
}

Visual State & Animation Class
To properly translate these IDs into world space, ensure you're accessing the matrix array correctly via ANIMCLASS_MATRIXARRAY (0xBE8). If you're drawing from the top-down, the head offsets are usually 1.6 for players and 1.4 for the infected to account for the model scaling.

1. Verify SKELETON_OFFSET_PLAYER (0x7E0)
2. Verify SKELETON_OFFSET_INFECTED (0x670)
3. Ensure you're pulling from SKELETON_ANIMCLASS1 (0x118) before hitting the matrix pointer.

Is anyone else seeing issues with the pelvis index not aligning on certain modded server skins, or is it just the base models shifting? Drop your findings below.
