Just discovered you can eat rotten herbs with no health penalties. I have been throwing them all away without realizing they still help.
[Breaking News]Guns receieve silent nerf in new patchhttps://theindiestone.com/forums/topic/102705-4222-patch-notes/#findComment-496291
>>3129480Essentialy it seems TIS want you to always be able to hit with a gun - but roll the diceroll on it doing damage. Headshots were always damage on the new system, and it looks like that was unintended
It does feel weird that they'll update literally everything except the zombies. Other than crawling zombies are identical to how they were 10 years ago. Just the same boring mindless mook
Why exactly does a protein penalty exist? What is the design philosophy behind this?
>eating nothing but luxury foods living in the finest mansion is the same level of happiness as a survivor waking up in his trailer day one of the outbreakThere being so few positive moodles is one my problems with this game. You are only punished, never rewarded. So you're encouraged to just subsist on the bare minimum. You can't be comfortable, only uncomfortable. You can't be happy, only sad.
>Sipping the delicious mix of Whiskey, Lime Soda and Chocolate Milk from a wine glass>Munching on Mushroom, Watermelon and Sunflower Seed salads.>Watching Ballincoolin.Ah, so this is the good life.
>>3129556I like the lifestyles mod for that >>3129533Its dumb and you only get the str gain bonus between 50-300, issue is a big fish or rabbit can send you way over even in butchered cuts, i am surprised they havent added protein poisoning as a fuck you balance
>>3129480>>3129500I think this is a great solution. Importance of actual aiming in the new system kept, but the skill becomes a player in the damage of the hit.
>>3129556I think Happiness should be a much more vast, slow-rolling system built off of several others. Something that moves in waves of days or weeks rather than "I ate an omelette. All smiles today!"Depression/Joy should be the creeping death that demands you keep your basics in check. It should be closer to corpse sickness: By the time you see the moodle, you've already been fucking up for a while.
>QoL>look inside>cheats
>>3129480I don't get it, do they just flop over stunned forever?
>>3129629based devs fixing cheats
>>3129629They react, they just dont take any damage
>>3129480Instead of this, why not let us blow their arms and legs off or something?
just another day in rosewood
>>3129662>Those moodlesShow us the bite Anon.
>>3129673nyo... she's completely healthy trustshe just needs to smoke
>>3129715ZombieZombie!Zombie!!We got a bite hider over here folks!Get the bleach bottle!!!
>>3129480Oh great, guns are back to being fucking worthless unless you're within 5 or so tiles.
everything takes so long when you got 1 hand
>>3129757>Game is already a tedious green bar-watching game>You know what'd be great, if things took even LONGER!!!Never understood amputation mods, the character by default already feels retarded and slow, why would I want them even slower?At least in Rimworld you can jam bionic limbs on people to make them even BETTER.
>>3129761the same reason everyone's understanding on how to make the game more difficult is to lower loot rates and increase zombie count
>>3129761I think the new fork has exactly that, a couple cyber options at top tier. But nothing rimworld crazy. There's a couple skilltrees too so you get faster on familiarity. So far I enjoy how it's done and it feels cool as a last ditch effort
>>3129769>Bro, if you want the game to be SUPER awesome just up zombie count and make them sprinters, then run into the woods and don't interact with the zombies at all!I love how this is so common with Zomboid players.
>>3129781not much different from rimworld players doing a le hekin insane survival challenge sea ice at -150c naked brutality then just spending years below 10k wealth
>>3129784>Rimworld player turns all the difficulty options to the max>Only to install 100 cheatmods which makes it a cakewalk anywaysI just don't get it, I really don't.
>>3129533>at 150 protein>eat -46 hunger catfish>protein increases to 529.9
>>3129796he's beginning to BELIEVE
>>3129533>Why exactly does a protein penalty existNo reason, just weird 'realism' being used to spite players.>What is the design philosophy behind thisIs it realistic but would make the game fun? Replace it with gamey bullshitIs it realistic and would make the game less fun? Add it in the most bullshit vague and spiteful way possibleIf you were running around all day and doing heaps of physical activity, eating MORE fish/meat/etc is not going to make your gains LESS lmao
>>3129796How do you even count proteins without mods? I just grab as much frozen meat after I find a barbell/dumbbell during my puny runs and eat meat to fullness for the str exp bonus.
>>3129817>How do you even count proteins without modsYou don't. It's debug/mod only.
>>3129818which is super fucking retarded. it's a video game. you need to gamify these things.just get a mod that exposes all this stuff and your enjoyment of the game will increase.
>>3129818Does surplus protein stay with your character? Maybe I'll just double, even triple eat on the first day of a strength grind.
>>3129823you can eat up to 500 protein iirc. if you are above 300 you get no buff without a mod that changes thatprotein, carbs and fat all drain slowly. it's very opaque and there is literally no clue for protein, nothing about your character state or weight gain will tell you. so either you take Nutritionist and autistically track your protein intake, using exercise XP to verify you're still in the range of bonus XP, or you just mod it.i recommend giving yourself the 4 free points in sandbox if you want to track this yourself. do not punish yourself for TIS's sake.
>>3129827Does nutritionist show your current nutritional intake?
>>3129823Protein goes up to 1000, but anything above 300 stunts your STR/FIT gains.You lose about 72 a day, so it's pretty comically easy to skyrocket to 1000 and never be able to get back into the 'safe' range unless you starve your character of any protein for over a week.
>>3129827Correct but you can have 1000 protein. The window is 50-300 for str gain bonus. You naturally lose 70something protein a day
>>3129830>Does nutritionist show your current nutritional intake?Nope. Only how much is in food itself.
>>3129833>anything above 300 stunts your STR/FIT gainsHold up. So if you eat too much you actually get worse exp gains?
>>3129840Anything above or below yes
>>3129840>Hold up. So if you eat too much you actually get worse exp gains?Technically it's 1.0 XP gains above 300But that still feels fucking retarded, you can be proteinmaxxing and not gain any benefit to it. As if those swole as fuck bodybuilders don't just cram in as much protein as possible.
Is anyone in here playing multiplayer?It feels like there are not that many people playing online, it's like 1% or less of daily peak.
>>3129843>>3129844What a retarded game mechanic. TIS needs to do more layoffs.
>>3129846>Is anyone in here playing multiplayer?Yes if you count co-op.>What a retarded game mechanic. TIS needs to do more layoffs.The only layoff that'd matter would be firing Lemmy and whoever else remains of the old-guard.
>>3129846I foresee an extremely steep drop after a patch. Temporary unstable is a lie. They will not playtest it thoroughly let alone address any issues found. That shit is going to hit stable after a fake testing period with all the introduced errors those shitass devs can muster.
>>3129848They probably heard of "protein poisoning" and stupidly thought you could have too much protein. Actual protein "poisoning" is from eating meat like rabbit, which is super lean and has no fats. It's the lack of fats, not the protein that's a problem.Thankfully by the time this thing is finished Claude 13 will be agentic, superintelligent and can rewrite the entire game in an evening, which is what we'll all be doing.
>>3129963tbf i run on 1000 protein -500 fats pretty much all the time
btw before you level strength if you have spongie's character customization installed, past lv7 strength it will add an abs texture on your character's belly that looks fucking ugly on tomb's body femalemake sure to debug sandbox options and disable that shit because it's enabled by default
>>3129987Yeah, well that's because the nutrition system is nonsensical. You should be in the hospital.
we hit 10,000 zombies killed bros
>>3129662>The three states of taking a huge shit
>one of my mods broke sleeping in sleeping bagsAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>3129533Trying to mimic real life but failing to understand how it works in real life.
>check heat sources on PZ Wiki>each one of them except microwave and electric oven have "Tied lowest temperature of all heat sources, cooking the slowest." listed as a conWtf?
>>3130341I wasn't even aware cooking speeds differed lmao.I end up cooking 99.9% of stuff in an antique stove.
thanks to ladders we now have safe places to sleep outside
>>3130359hows TIS ladders? did they add any stupid downsides?chance to fall off mid climb maybe?Zombies pulling ladders down?Zombies climbing up?Zombies magically never leaving the base of the ladder?
>>3130388>hows TIS ladders?Okay, but not great.>did they add any stupid downsides?You can't see zombies until you're all the way up top. In reality you'd see zombies up there and stop climbing up, the character can't see zombies until they plant both feet on the top.>Zombies pulling ladders down?Nope!>Zombies climbing up?Nope!>Zombies magically never leaving the base of the ladder?Nope! Zombies randomly wander once LOS is broken for long enough. Which actually isn't very Romero-like, as Romero zombies just relentlessly wait under ladders/ropes/etc.
>>3130407Can you see if you can climb up billboards?
>>3130426Open the game up in debug, teleport to a billboard, give it a shot.
>After guns being overpowered as fuck at any range, we are back to guns being useless outside of the 'point blank bonus' that's around 4 tiles awayJust what I love, guns being glorified melee weapons! AND they jam like a motherfucker too! As if our players are loaded up with bubbas shit-filled loads
>>3130429Nah, I'm not installing the unstable branch.
>>3130437Fool on you, B42 'stable' is anything but.
>>3130440I want to keep playing my modded game as long as humanly possible before the new patch shits it up for weeks.
>>3130246Wtf thats from spongies?
>Tailoring is a fucking chore to grind, it's un-fun>Oh lol just download the autotailor mod!>Man, breaking twigs for no reason all day is fucking boring>Oh lol just buy the autotwigbreaker9000 to break twigs all day instead>Why the fuck am I breaking twigs all day in the first place????
>>3130295OVER 9000 zed kills and not a single hair out of place
>>3130548>have a problem>hey there is a solution for this problem>no i just want to bitch!
>>3130578shitty solutions don't make the problem not exist
>>3130590Its a solution to your problem.Use it or stop bitching.
>>3130594It's not even a solution. The problem is that the game makes you do boring shit that doesn't make sense and your solution is to automatically do boring shit that doesn't make sense. It's still shit which is the actual problem. You being a fag about it doesn't solve it either.
>>3130608>its not a solution when something fixes the problem i haveGod you are beyond retarded.
>>3130594Stop responding to bait, he's been doing this for months just to get (You)'s
>>3130618Right, my bad.
>Pz_optimization got nukedI hope that fucking sandnigger killed himself
>>3130578Solutions for a problem that shouldn't exist, are stupid solutions.If beartraps keep cutting your legs off in your house, the solution isn't to wear beartrap-proof pants, it's to not have beartraps in your house.
>>3130728qrd
>>3130728Same. What a piece of shit crybullying a larger mod off of the workshop. He's not even going to do anything with his 'victory', he's just shit the place up and now leaving.
>anime girl op>No anime girl mods being usedPosers
I fell asleep in my computer chair and my character either died of thirst or cold
>>3130728>>3130989>>3131055It is still available on the github & due to how its installed if you already had it from workshop you're fine too, it doesnt use the subscribe thingAnd yes, the author of PZ_Optimization has stated he hasnt stole code and has contacted his lawyers, so if the Analog Memories Guy wants to chase this good luck to him. You cant copyright godsamn lensflare kekValve have taken it off cause its standard procure until a resolution
>>3131055The fag won't update the github somehow, and if he loses the case he probably going to stop developing it.PZO author is also claiming that PZ_optim stole his code tooI don't really care about vibecoded mod, I tried both PZO and PZ_Optim and the latter works far better for me
>>3129441I just did a fresh install and like 4 hours ago the PZ_Optimization guy made his mod hidden? Anyone know what the fuck happened and can I just use a version from another language I guess?
>>3131925Its still up on the github

What is this mod?
>>3132477That mod is "Enemies of the Cataclysm: Mi-Go"

I swear the greatest bottleneck in this game is fucking nails.
>>3132799yea? you can't build primitive shelters without nails.
>>3132371If you take puny you wouldn't have to take reluctant fighter. Unless its extinction, I always take puny for 5~7 str starts because it's fairly easy to grind str up to that value with a dumbbell.
>>3132799it used to be much worse. you can still dismantle furniture. just no one bothers because once you find a few boxes of nails you don't need them anymore.
>>3132371disorganized pisses me off so much. even for 6 points it's too irritating.>>3132857he will still get a shitload of combat XP with Fast Learner, especially if he focuses short blunt. probably be level 4 in the first month easily.
>>3132799Only if you're a innawoodscuck
Is there a mod that lets me layer vanilla clothing better? Maybe one that lets me unbutton shirts and unzip jackets so you can see some of the layer underneath. Something that also makes bowties and clip on ties visible would be nice.Really, I want anything that makes character clothing look more dynamic without resorting to mods that make it look like an uncanny second-life looking character.
>>3132910yea but in CDDA they have building options that don't require nails. You can even build a put with grass in it in a emergency innawoods situation or bend trees to make a shelter.
>>3132930Yeah you want spongie open jackets, and vanilla clothes expanded. Then if you want aome more flavor, Frockins and Tombs. They use spongies for lots of multiple styles
>>3132990>SpongieOh man, this guy is pretty good, he even has some game appropriate clothes.
>>3132990Actually, are there any mods that make boots actually boot-like and not just form fitting boot textured socks?
>>3133156Frockin Stompers, the high heels actually change the height too if you do the heightmap tweak, but it has a large variety of regular boots with high stomping power
The base game really does just need more clothing options in general.Desperately.
>>3133216playing dress-up is for faggots and girls
>>3133216Clothing options are stupid unless they serve practical functions.In a zombie apocalypse you wouldn't be running around in your corset and latex skinsuit, you'd be wearing whatever is most zombieproof and comfortable.
>>3133258>In a zombie apocalypse you wouldn't be running around in your corset and latex skinsuitspeak for yourself
>>3133258This is already ingame. You wear heavy firefighter pants and a neckbeard jacket with a construction helmet thinking youre protected and die from heat exertion.
>>3133269That doesn't fit the 'comfortable' part of the equation.>>3133266Come on, don't be silly.
>>3133258If you are in a zombie apocalypse and you are dressed like anything other than Megamind, you are doing something wrong.
>>3133216No, clothing model just needs a rework. I want a vest that doesn't look a barber's cape
>>3133271It's an apocalypse, i'll do what i want.
>>3133258One day you are going to accept the fact that other people enjoy things in different ways than you.Either that, or you'll take solipsism with you to the grave. One or the other.
>>3133282Adding bondage gear to the game makes as much sense as giving bondage gear to Master Chief.
Has anyone ever made and worn the garbage bag clothing
>>3133283It doesn't have to make sense, anon.It just has to be fun.
>>3133287It's not fun if the items are realistic (massive overheating and discomfort) and it's not fun if they're comically overpowered and basically function as armor.
>>3133288Not an excuse to avoid adding things that are fun.
>>3133290How about we add NPC's and firearms that don't suck ass first?
>>3133292>How about we add NPC's and firearms that don't suck ass first?Well I don't know about that, man. That's a tall ask.
I'd think at this point we would benefit more from AI vibecoding than the dumb brits developing this pos
>funnyo I just want to goon
>>3133302>nyo I just want to goonThat's what I thought.
>>3132007PZO just flat out doesn't work. It takes forever to load. And I still get micro stuttering every time I run
>>3133318works on my machine
>>3131925It's temporarily taken down on Steam by Valve while the two mod authors argue it out in court.I've been looking into this shit a little and while I don't have the technical know-how to tell myself what the exact truth is, but after looking around a bunch at both sides my gut very firmly tells me that the PZ_Optimizer guy is in the right and the Atmospheric guy doesn't have a fucking clue what he's talking about and is letting his massive ego get in everybody's way.
>>3133405You just want to post that
oh so that's the new use of funnels
I want the kei truck mod but it uses autotsar and that's another library to add to myodlist and I don't think this much bloat is good
Fucking told you retards that if you tread on the toes of another modder they'll DMCA your ass.They're fucking weirdos.
Does anybody actually use any of the armor or gear that gives you discomfort?Even the newer players in my server won't put it on.
>>3133598FUCK no. Discomfort is ass and gives you Sadness, a massive debuff to attack speed, after like 10 fucking seconds.I'm honestly shocked everyone was crying and whining about muscle strain instead of Discomfort, which is a MUCH more punishing and awful mechanic. I can't even wear a respirator for 10 minutes before my character spirals into depression.
>>3133598>Does anybody actually use any of the armor or gear that gives you discomfort?No? It causes endless depression/sadness/etc because your character never gets used to it.You could technically micromanage your outfit, but that's going to get fucking tedious as hell. I use 'discomfort armor' only to the point where discomfort doesn't cause the debuff, which is usually a couple of items at max.
....why can't I repair my car's heater?
Should I start making a crafting guide showing all of the best recopies to use 0-10 skill level or does something like this already exist?
>>3133626>....why can't I repair my car's heater?Why does minor dents cripple the capacity of a car's trunk?Why can a step-van only carry a hundred and sixty kilograms?Why, why, why?
>>3133598I lower the discomfort in the settings because looking cool is important
homeboy found his happy place
>>3133608>>3133623Sadness is such a stupid mechanic in Zomboid. I could understand if it was for specific instances like if you had NPC followers and they died or some other stuff, but your character could be living an incredibly cozy life, even by non-apocalypse standards, and they'll be ravaged by depression.Wearing protective equipment should make your character feel more confidant if anything I imagine, like I'd much rather be wearing a mask than smelling piles of decomposing bodies.
>>3133648didn't you make this post before? Just make one already.
>>3133802>>3133663Ill do some for himCarving: knitting needles or spoon to forkMaintenance: shivs. Pick up every Toothbrush, steel piece, break every glass and rip a load of rags. Masonry: smashing rocksCarpentry: anything, it levels for you with anything usefulPottery: fuckin pipesCarving is probably easiest and most enjoyable to spam the fuck out of even without a book, your source is renewable. Set up a table in some trees. The shiv grind is satisfying when you stockpile but needs a book for best gains
Welding: cut bars then weld them back together Blacksmithing: can level along welding, use quarters to make knives. Primitive forge can get you to level 10 and can make the scrap short and longswords but you'll still need advanced stations for useful recipes
>>3133318I did a fresh PZ install and purged everything because I was having some slowdown. Then I realized PZ_Optimized was gone so I said fuck it and just swapped to PZO. For my experience, the game loads faster than it ever did before, like going from 1m to 10s to load the simulation. The only big difference I got from pz_op was deleting driving stutters and PZO does that too so I don't really see the big deal.
[UNFORTUNATE NEWS]Traits as skill author has been without a PC for a month. RIP VIVA LA CHILE
For me, Low thirst is almost mandatory now. I'd take it over dextrous. I gave myself free points to run it last time and not having to micromanage water makes life so much easier. It's like once per 2 days to fill up a 1L bottle.
>>3133875Carving knitting needles is better than carving wooden pipes?
>>3134054the best is carving spoons then carving spoons into forks. From large handle all the way down to small handle then spoons and forks.
>>3130359isn't it impossible for zombies to hurt you while sleeping or did they change that
>>3134064>spoons>into forkst3h spork!!1
>>3134064Is that the most XP per unit of material, or unit of time?Because making pipes gives more XP per unit of time, which is more important for MP.
>>3134080I don't play MP. but if you're doing it with book multipliers, you can do 0-10 carving with 9 planks and spoons to forks. There's a youtube video of that, carving speedrun 6 mins should find it.
>>3134085What's the chain from planks to forks?
>>3134029i am so afraid of my computer getting roasted with hardware prices what they are. my only other PC takes 15 minutes to load to Windows 7 and is completely worthless as a gaming PC.
>>3134089prety sure it's planks / large/med/small handles into spoons and forks?
>>3134111As everyone knows, that's the only way to learn how to make a baseball bat. Making forks.
>>3134089I did plank into 12 small handles into spoon into fork
>>3129480Any mods that make guns not useless?
>Leftover rabbit meat worth 12 hunger>Decide to cook them first>Turn them into stir fry>45 hunger
>>3134169Food/Cooking/etc values are totally fucked to hell and back.Because hunger has very little to do with how much 'stuff' (fats/protein/carbs/calories) is in the food, you can get some seriously weird results. My character can chug 4 kilograms of soda like a boss, but eating something much smaller can make him almost explode.
>>3134080you should just make pipes when they're available as it's the same XP as spoon to forkidk why these anons insist on doing spoon to fork when pipe is clearly superior.
>>3132893I use more on the floor and just pile shit. Organized can be really nice for the cars, but on foot your bags will be much bigger than you can ever fill without being overweight unless you are 9str. At this point with more on the floor disorganized is free points. Just like how Fast learner + Reluctant Fighter is a 1 cost global xp boost and only lowers combat xp by like 1%.
>Fire destroys objects, including items within them>Fire does not harm items on the ground>Objects cannot be marked or given labels to visually denote what's in them>Objects on the ground are visible and easy to recognizeIt's objectively smarter to just pile shit on the ground like an ape. Why is this game so backwards?
because im not retarded enough to play with fire
Im playing viewpoint and the regular fences are so tall I can't see over them like normal. Anyone know of a mod for this or use a texture pack that doesn't have this problem?
so lemmy went full hands off with the development and handed it to the soldier boy instead? I haven't seen that faggot crying on reddit in a while
>>3134159Vanilla. This doesn't change much for how good guns are
>>3133598I use the bone mask with the bone choker and fingerless metal gloves, because they give great protection to a few areas that are high risk (face, neck, hands) and don't cause any discomfort penalties if you only use those three together.
>>3134442Bone Choker seems comically unbalanced compared to the other neck armors>Easy to craft with complete garbage>100% armor???>Least discomfort/heat/etc of all the neck armors as well
>>3134447It's balanced by the difficulty of obtaining the recipe, if you don't get lucky in a surv house then you have to make a trip to the Louisville University's anthro classroom
>>3133284I want a mod that add Wonder Bread bags for shoes.
Climbing up ladders seems even less safe than walking up the step ladders. If there is a zombie on top you're just fucked no matter what.
lv8 long blunt allowing you to one shot extinction zombies without muscle strain
>find arctic coat>everything over -40°C is irrelevant nowt-thanks game
The end of a long run, we hit January and ran out of things to do.We were also expecting there to be way more zombies in here, other than the top floor there were about eight in one room and nothing anywhere else.
>>3134169>bone with some meat on it is one meal>cook it into a huge pot of soup>suddenly its food for a weekShocking i know.
>>3134817>long blunt is goodit is knowni feel like these threads just go in circles. bitch about lemmy, bitch about the mechanics, bitch about TIS being fucking lazy, argue about which weapon category is best long bluntwe just waste our time here. can we stop having this thread?
>>3135496nah, every weapon type is good once you hit lv6+
I love short blade backstabbing. But i fear its only useful on apocalypse-level dumb zombies. Just feels good especially ehen you catch them mid anim to turn around.
>>3134683If the devs aren't hacks they would program tsdhe zombies to fall down when they try to grab you while climbing a ladder.
>>3135964i haven't played it, how does it work? i assume it's as retarded as sheet rope, you just go straight up-down with no way to cancel.
>>3135530Sure but long blunt is better
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3705757669The idea of this mod has me enamoured, I want to find, play and beat several games that I've had on my "to play" list practically forever in Zomboid, because that sounds way more kino than just running a ROM directly on ZSNES or whatever.Where the fuck do you get ROMs though? I've almost never wanted to download some ROMS before and I don't know where to begin.
here's a long blunt for you*unzips*
>>3136282>*flicks lighter on*Hell yeah, I love a good smoke.
>>3136271i would share a rom site with you but the idea of playing zomboid to emulate games is just so painfully stupid that i refuse to enable you. jesus christ what are you even doing in this game.
>>3136282bro that is the shortest blunt I have ever seen lol
where is the lingerie store
>>3134516You can auto-learn it via researching a bone mask, that has no special requirements other than tailoring and such.
>>3135530>nah, every weapon type is good once you hit lv6+Every type is 'good' with high skill but long blunt has characteristics that puts it well above the others.>Material-wise super easy to craft>Huge crit rates>No sharpening mechanic so it's stats stay high even when the weapon is almost broken>Large amount of upgrades available which only makes them better

>>3137560i love how no one is phased by the jank player standing up in their car anymore because it's so ubiquitous.fix your shit TIS.
>>3137579the devs hate us and want us to suffer. i really cannot imagine they play this game, hear that, and think "yeah that's acceptable". it's willful ignorance or malice.
>>3136403I found one now anyway which seems to work.Why you gotta be a hater though? Just emulating some old game sounds boring so even though I've a few games on my list I'd like to play, I've never made time for it. and always felt like I had better things to do.Actually earning those roms in a game and having to pay for their upkeep with fuel I've scavenged and resources to keep myself alive beyond the stuff I needed to clear out enough zombies to actually find those games to begin with? That actually makes the process interesting, it's exactly the motivation I needed.

Any way to add the silent hill monster mod to only appear during fog?
>>3138224Ask the dev.
>>3138175perhaps the strongest evidence they don't play the fucking game
>>3138172it just sounds ridiculous. like gaming inception or something. play this game... to emulate another game... meanwhile your poor computer is using all these resources it doesn't need to run zomboid in the background while you play some 16-bit shit.kind of like why the books in the game are not epub files. use your imagination.
>>313823299% of devs don't play their own games, or any games at all.
50 layers of vibecode built upon each other like a brazilian favela.
>>3138224Thats literally a setting in the mod you dumbass.
>>3138236>it just sounds ridiculous. like gaming inception or something. play this game... to emulate another game..You have no whimsy in your life and it shows.>meanwhile your poor computer is using all these resources it doesn't need to run zomboid in the background while you play some 16-bit shit.Oh no, my computer has to work 1% harder in order to perform its main function: providing me with fun. It's the end of the world, my poor computer.>kind of like why the books in the game are not epub files. use your imagination.The books and the notes in game aren't there because the dev is a lazy hack, why do you think one of the most popular mods in the game is one that adds stuff to all the notes? It's because it's the little things that are the most interesting, the spices of life.
Man, looting un-updated old places like the farmland between rosewood and lake Fallas is just miserableI haven't even gone to Louisville
>>3138236>meanwhile your poor computer is using all these resources it doesn't need to run zomboid in the background while you play some 16-bit shit.No, my pc is doing what its designed to - bring me joy and entertaiment, you sour crusty vagina.
the japanoid game Village in the Shade also kills your chickens if you forget to close the hutch door
I want to have fun in louiseville but I'd rather not have an opressive horde to deal with just to get one block to the other. Would low pop be enough to set it so it has similar numbers to say, Rosewood levels?
>>3138060It's happening because my full keyboard has no printscreen button so my keybind uses ctr+\ and that makes my dude stand up. But also yeah it's not even that big of a glitch considering lol.
>>3139086yeah if you just want to screw around up there without being lvl 8 in weapons Low shuold be fine. The rest of the game will be pretty boring though.
>>3139221I don't really do long runs, typically I just stay in one town, achieve a goal, then say "and he lived happily ever after" assuming my guy didn't die. I just want LV to have a similar population per screen to match, say, Rosewood, and not have to deal with a never ending horde streaming out of nearby buildings.
I liked 41's aiming system a lot better than 42's.
how do you guys save your modded outfit combos? the save system doesnt seem to work.
>>3138236>your poor computer is using all these resources it doesn't needLol who worries about that stuff, are you from like some third world country where running an extra program on your computer makes your electricity bill increase exponentially or something?
Man I wish that fuckass new patch goes live already so the modders can update and I can go back to playing zombied again.
>>3139793works on my machine
I'm stuck...>no carpentry 4 book so I can't progress carpentry>no blacksmithing 3 book so I can't progress blacksmithing>no masonry 4 book so I can finally make stone maces>no welding 2 book so I can't learn welding>no laines commercial auto manual so I can't fix this beauty...0.05 loot is pain
>>3140540isn't that standard extinction rates or did u go lower?
>>3141471much, much lower standard extinction is 0.4 which is plenty generous since it's only 0.2 lower than apocalypse (0.6)0.05 is 1/8th of extinction
>>3141476Louisville university?
>>3140540Even when I boost XP by 10, I think that grinding skills without the books to be fucking tedious.
Tree climbing now since you can climb on roof meta? This would be helpful when you are being chased by 2 sprinters in the open forest and you either fight or rip.
Hit day 24 in viewpoint. Power is out, water is out, already stocked up on gas and set up at the advanced smithing forge in Fallas Lake. I'm not really sure what I need to do to prepare for winter. I started blacksmith but haven't found a single book above 2 yet... I'm not sure if I want to go to Riverside or rosewood for books, I guess Riverside is easier these days.
What car mods do you guys like to you? I've only been doing vanilla up until now, and I want a little more vareity. Are RV mods any good? I heard they would sometimes teleport you to a random spot in the woods.
>>3140540You don't need books to level those skills.
>>3142392Rhymes used cars and that's it.
>>3142414To make them not a complete and utter grind you do.
>>3142392Using fillibuster used cars along ki5. There is a visual discrepency if you give af. The fillibusters are unironically my fav cause the ki5s feel too good. Incredible models though
