[eternal stirrup]

@analog sandal beautiful work! It would be awesome if you could sync the sawing sound

[analog sandal]

yeah I might look into that but the unfortunate part is that the soundfile length is too short so most of it is silence anyhow as we still can't mod event length

[eternal stirrup]

Ah, I see, well amazing work anyway

Can't see myself going back to vanilla sounds

[analog sandal]

thanks, that means a lot 🙂 I'm sorely disappointed at the number of variation the devs coded in which is very very low, I had awhole lotta ambience ideas that couldn't come to fruition due to the lack of implementation 😦

also I couldn't get these to play during my time recording so just trust me that they're in there

and yeah that's me howling into a mic

(also, just checked, the PZ_Saw maximum length is below 1.5s)

[lilac night]

Looking forward to it, Raven!

[fervent bay]

anyone have an answer for me about the blade weapons? change a Lua, maybe?

[granite latch]

To help me learn, I dug through the code for you and what you're after is in SwipePlayerState

Couldn't tell you how to get around that though

[open abyss]

I'm looking for a mod that allows me to build car doors, car windows, fuel tanks etc for b41

Anyone know of one????

[granite latch]

to in-game craft the parts?

[rigid void]

@analog sandal great stuff with the audio mate. Lots of nice detail there. The only very minor criticism from me is the rain sound. It sounds great but seems to have a rain on concrete sound, which is fine, but would that work when it's raining in say the forest or fields? Or have you got alternative rain sounds?

other than that, it's great

[analog sandal]

that's a concern you'll have to raise with the devs

I'm not the guy who made it only read one rain sounds for the entire game world

I'm only swapping assets here, but I'm very much limited by asset length, which can't be longer than vanilla, and asset number and implementation, which I can't change on my end

🙂

[rigid void]

yeah i get it. What did you use as a source for your chosen rain sound? I mean it's absolutely fine, but I think it sounds a bit ... 'particular' - sorry if this doesn't make much sense

in fact i'd have to compare the vanilla rain sound to your sound. Other than that the other audio stuff is fantastic and you've done a great job

[analog sandal]

3 layers, 2 recorded by me (suburb and nature) and the third is a layer off a licensed library to glue it all together

[uncut depot]

Kayozz: If you had to try and pin down what's not working about the rain, what would it be? Is it the pitter-patter? The whooooshing in the background? Does it work better for one specific occasion than another?

[analog sandal]

he vanilla is basically just white noise, I wanted slightly more from mine, but I concede that I haven't played extensively with it so ear fatigue might be a thing to consider and it might get annoying over a longer game time

had I had full implementation control, I'd set up s sound sources around the map

[rigid void]

yeah it's a shame the devs aren't supporting audio additions

[analog sandal]

that would just play the metallic layers and the natural layers

instead of having to bake it into one tech

track

[rigid void]

yours does sound better, but it sounds more urban rain ... if that makes sense

yeah ^

[analog sandal]

it's a shame they didn't take more time with implementation, could've made some really immersive amazing stuff

yeah it is urban, I had to make a call unfortunately

[rigid void]

and they aren't open to implementing better audio?

the devs

brb 2mins

[analog sandal]

that's not a question for me, I haven't seen any improvement since 2015 regarding implementation, so I'd wager no

and with the number of sounds just plain out clipping or popping or having high background noise, I'd have hoped it to be fixed some time ago

[rigid void]

yeah maybe it could be a future fix

anyway good work dude

[analog sandal]

thanks 🙂

well I mean, the sounds as in assets themselves, I fixed in my project, it's just the implementation I can't access, otherwise I would've fixed and made it better myself

[severe ridge]

Dressing Time and PLLoot works together with fashion montage now :p

[severe ridge]

random button has never been wilder xP

[humble kernel]

dressing time is a masterpiece

[nimble spoke]

ohhhh man, some awesome combos there!

that clipping nightmare though with billboards

[severe ridge]

:p bodylocations change when the game start

[nimble spoke]

what?

I noticed the game still gives you that standard belt if you equip any belt during character creation

[severe ridge]

because items in the mod are dupes

you might want to add your belt too :p

[nimble spoke]

you mean the ones from fashion montage, right? Are yours dupes too?

[severe ridge]

i mean, i was able to change the vanilla holster and it appears on the mod e.e but i completely change the item

nah, mine's just adds to the vanilla table

so it works without it

the general table. There's the profession ones as well

[nimble spoke]

ohhhh, right

[willow estuary]

Guess I'm a clothing modder now too...

[nimble spoke]

nice, I was messing with an option to wrap them around the wrist, but never finished that

[willow estuary]

Yeah, that's more of a classic for sure; this was an attempt at half-assing the Tarkov/Day-Z armbands, although you can't see these over a jacket so 🤷‍♂️

[nimble spoke]

that can be fixed

I'm planning more alternative ways for vanilla items, for example visible belts match with pants and shorts right now, but not with skirts so I'll have to add the option to wear them there

[thorny kayak]

free to use icons in your mods guys

[drifting ore]

kewl

[gaunt pendant]

It's currently broken (dunno if intentionally). You can fix it yourself if you change media/lua/client/OptionScreens/WorkshopSubmitScreen.lua line 289

+       self.tags:setTags(item:getTags())```

"SteamWorkshopItem.getAllowedTags()" seems like a stub, always returns an empty list: public static ArrayList getAllowedTags() { ArrayList var0 = new ArrayList(); return var0; }

[indigo hound]

good arts! good works!

[drifting ore]

Someone should make a mod that shortens the hair growth time.

And not the facial hair, hair hair.

[long grove]

it already grows pretty fast

[drifting ore]

It takes a month for it to grow.

just saying on a hair mod that takes in game a week or 2 for both facial hair and hair to grow. What we get is a stubble for now.

[latent orchid]

Very noice! Do you draw these on your own or are they based off existing icons?

[gusty crystal]

I remember someone said they were working on like a space-mod/map or something like a few months ago, does anyone remember that?

[long grove]

thats blair

[gusty crystal]

Hows it coming along, cause I thought it seemed super cool!

[quick moth]

Noob question. When changing stats of items, if I leave out certain fields, such as insulation, will it set insulation to zero or use the vanilla game's insulation value?

[nimble spoke]

it will use a standard value, in this case no real effect for your character's insulation

[drifting ore]

Anyone know hairstyle mods?

[hexed anchor]

pawlow's loot has some wigs

[drifting ore]

Nah, i need the good stuff.

[hexed anchor]

the way I see it, you're not going to get it any time soon

because it's very shit to mod different hairstyles in

[atomic storm]

There are no hairstyle mods as of yet for some reason. PawLow Loot does have some good wigs, and they can be worn with headgear. Some minor clipping tho.

[severe ridge]

hairstyles are great :f

they have 5 different groups of headgears to work differently with each hair, yet it's a mechanic barely used

and it's something i will implement when i'm able to

[atomic storm]

Tbh, I've been running my char as bald and using your over eye wig or the bun wig, as they are my fav.

[severe ridge]

oh, you dont have to be bald

only in the character creation tab that the hair appears

because it's set a custom type for the creation screen

[atomic storm]

Oh

[severe ridge]

after that it hides the hair completely by itself

:x

some weird workarounds, ikr

[atomic storm]

I still prefer the wig styles tho. Just wish I could dye them

[severe ridge]

it's on the list 😉 blair has a clothing dye mod which im taking some ideas from

[atomic storm]

I saw that mod, was wondering if it worked for you stuff but I assume not.

[severe ridge]

i rather make it work with hair dyes

always good to avoid adding more stuff when possible :x

[atomic storm]

Also, I saw you talking about open jackets? That would be 10/10. I've been wanting to use an opened version of the varsity jacket for some time now.

[severe ridge]

yeah, i've been experimenting :x

but would be one of those mods that needs high maintenance :f

for touching vanilla clothing directly

maybe too much for myself alone ^^"

[atomic storm]

I suppose. I've not really delved into PZ modding.

but ya'll seem to be doing amazing work in B41

[severe ridge]

lots of gifted peeps here

dsoaJEIOKDoiASD

[atomic storm]

You could try using Item Tweaker API to help with updates breaking stuff when touching vanilla items.

[severe ridge]

without duplicating stuff, yep

[atomic storm]

Well, good luck on future projects Paw. Can't wait to sub, fav, and like them all. As I do with SoulFiltcher's mods.

[severe ridge]

yeah, might do more separate stuff when it goes stable :v

[atomic storm]

XD

[wicked yacht]

Anyone know if it's possible to add mod options to the server settings gui?

[open abyss]

Any way to create a recipe for like a toolbox or something which contains items?

[granite latch]

Hydrocraft has a toolbox, you could extend it to add a crafting recipe if there isnt already one

[open abyss]

That's not what i meant

I would like to be able to make a Recipe FOR the toolbox/schoolbag or what not that comes with a preset of items that i specified.

[granite latch]

Oh right so like a "Handyman's toolbox" which contains one of each hammer, saw, etc?

[granite latch]

I don't know the specifics but it seems like you need to add a lua callback on item crafting for your chosen container, and then add the items post-craft

[open abyss]

Seems that require more skill then i got - damn

[wicked yacht]

Lua is surprisingly easy

the biggest issue is lack of solid documentation from what I can see

[open abyss]

not that much for me, it's a wee bit to abstract - i can edit what's there, but to pull it out of thin air and make something work from scratch is beyond me... I find that writing the code is VERY backwards

In code you don't say "The water is wet" you go "Wet is the properties of the liquid in which i hint at"

Which is not just backwards but an unnatural way of both thinking and talking...

And as such, beyond me...

But modifying what's already there is relatively easy enough. Just change "Wet" to "Dusty" and now you get a whole different scenario...

[granite latch]

That's heavily abstracted object orientation for you ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wicked yacht]

The nice thing is that for what you want to do it's no where near that detailed or complicated

[open abyss]

I don't know where or how to even start... And while it may seem so, i'm not lazy, i'm just so way out of my depth that i'm not just drowning, i can't see the surface...

to be so metaphorical.

Oh well... moving on then 😦

[echo hornet]

hey have a list of most mods that u guys used in b41

please send yours guys

[granite latch]

@open abyss did a bit of investigating and it's a lot simpler than I thought.

Add an OnCreate: onCreate_CallbackFunction to a recipe

which looks like

function onCreate_CallbackFunction(items, resultItem, player)
    resultItem:getInventory():AddItem("Base.Axe");
end

As an example I just added a new bag recipe

module Base
{
    recipe Make Bag
    {
        destroy RippedSheets,
        Result         : Bag_BigHikingBag,
        Time         : 30.0,
        CanBeDoneFromFloor         : true,
        OnCreate: onCreate_CallbackFunction
    }
}

[open abyss]

So this is added at the bottom or top of the recipe file?

[wicked yacht]

Neither

it'd be saved in a .lua file, probably located in MODNAME/media/lua/shared/

[open abyss]

i'll try, it'll either work or fail...

[wicked yacht]

best you can hope for ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@granite latch Where'd you look to find that out?

[open abyss]

@wicked yacht would you be willing to talk on voice few a few minutes to help me get this done right? I think i'm understanding most of this... I just like to confirm a few things before i do anything

[wicked yacht]

I was actually headed to bed.

[granite latch]

So i replicated the recipe under mod/media/scripts as BagRecipe.txt

and the function under mod/media/lua/server as AddItemOnCraft.lua

[granite latch]

Events.OnMakeItem was seemingly never used or got deprecated at some point so I had a look into the Recipe class to see if that fired off any events

In turn that lead me to the RecipeManager, which at the end of PerformMakeItem raises that event

lines 1263 to 1268 ish

[open abyss]

Okay i have No clue as to what i'm doing ...

[granite latch]

Want to voice + screenshare?

[open abyss]

yes please

[open abyss]

Can you make mods require other mods or be set as being "in conflict" or what ever????

[open abyss]

nevermind i found out ^_^

WIP

it remains to add shadows to the underwear, and make a dark version for fair skin.
Then redraw all the makeup, and start for men.

[analog sandal]

player character had some serious plans before the apocalypse hit judging by that underwear

[indigo hound]

☺️

[analog sandal]

👍

[devout basalt]

Does anyone else use Combat text to help with learning where to hit?

[analog sandal]

she's gonna be waiting for npcs I think

[indigo hound]

there will also be a naked version. in which the underwear is planned as a separate item, issued at the start, like a belt.

I hope.
I have big plans for girls

😅

[analog sandal]

that's a neat idea

I mean, even though it's ps1 graphics, doesn't mean it can't have a nice texture, right?

[indigo hound]

Yeap)

[analog sandal]

(and I don't mean ps1 in a negative way, I grew up with that stuff myself)

[mortal ivy]

so this is probably gonna seem stupid

but when your have recipes that come from mods, is there a relatively simple way to figure out what mod they come from?

[valid stump]

@mortal ivy Look in each mods scripts folder?

[quick moth]

I'm trying to learn how to mod by looking into other people's mods. If I did the following, would it just take the missing values from the base game or do I need to fill in every value in my mod?

item Vest_Hunting_Grey
{
Insulation = 0.69,
}

[valid stump]

@quick moth you have to supply the values or it will default to what ever the game code is default

[quick moth]

@valid stump the entire item or just the values I didn't put in?

[valid stump]

@quick moth not exactly sure what you mean

[quick moth]

Blood location, wind resistance, etc. Those values. If I don't put them in does the entire item default to the base game or do the ones I filled in work while it takes the rest from the base game?

[valid stump]

the values you dont put in do

[drifting ore]

Hello survivors

[indigo hound]

Hi

[exotic helm]

Hello my friend

[mortal ivy]

I assume that's gonna be found in the mods individual workshop folder?

[valid stump]

You would be correct with that

[mortal ivy]

Well that'll be fun

So I have to check the scripts of each individual mod to figure out where a recipe comes from 😑

There's no less tedious way?

[valid stump]

You might try debug mode, but as far as I know no

[drifting ore]

@indigo hound hi my friend

Are you still alive?)))

[clear lodge]

What will these manuals do? Gain xp on the skill tree?

[atomic storm]

@severe ridge On the Ares suit, what does the "Blending Focus" and "Soothe Mind" do?

[severe ridge]

Blending focus uses endurance to keep you 100% camouflaged from zombies through its duration, if cancelled before finished it consumes more endurance. Needs at least 50% endurance to be used

Soothe Mind removes pain/stress and other ailments to make you sleepy

if cancelled makes you panicked, even if veteran but thats all

the release heat is for endurance regeneration and to remove wetness at cost of water

[atomic storm]

Cool. I think you did a pretty great job with this op suit.

[severe ridge]

so you can pretty much keep running as long as you have tons of water

it was my exploration of timed actions with lua :p

[atomic storm]

Do the LED bits glow in the dark?

[severe ridge]

the mask has night vision as well

i wish

i wanna do that and change colour when hp is below 50-25%

but it's more than i can do :x right now

[atomic storm]

That was one of my fav things about the NV mod. Hope it can be done someday.

[long grove]

i hope this suit can't be found and has to be spawned in

[severe ridge]

nah

its safe in the table

lmao

[atomic storm]

It's lootable?

[severe ridge]

nope

im still working on it

i wanna make the character invisible when using the focus thing

and other animations included

[long grove]

wat

[atomic storm]

So you can only get it with Fashion Montage.

thats so cool

[analog sandal]

today I've learned that the game audio (and I do mean the entire mix) in PZ cuts off at 18khz, making everything sound slightly more muffled than it should be...and I've been wondering...
(thanks @uncut depot for this lovely graphical representation of my feelings after having spent literally hundreds of hours trying to prod this ass - the animal - of a sound system into compliance)

[mortal ivy]

Does this factor into why when even though you have the music set to the lowest setting and it becomes the "intense music" it's louder than everything

[analog sandal]

no that's a mistake made in a different bank

these days you'd just normallize the loudness (not volume) to the proper standard (I'd go for -24LUFS) so that you don't get the effect you're describing...but that never happened apparently...tbh the advanced audio tab in options is a very unfortunate thing as it kinda signals to the end-used that they're supposed to mix their own game...imagine coming to a burger place and they just drop a huge patty on a bun and tell you - please, add the salad and other stuff yourself. It might be good when you've got that one day you feel like finnicking, but having to do it on a thursday evening after being hungry all day at work - you get the point

but this one is even worse, as no matter what you try (I literally boosted the 18-20k range by 24db - TWENTY FOUR DECIBELS WHAT THE HECK MY MAN - and it didn't do squat as there is simply a cut, not attentuation

[mortal ivy]

Is that something I could edit to fix myself?

Or maybe exists as a mod for a fix

Cuz that shit is annoying

[analog sandal]

well you can go into audio and the advanced tab and mix your own game, which, as unfortunate as it is, is the only recourse since I have resolved not to bother fixing this game anymore

[uncut depot]

Cries in "I've watched my dear friend lose hair trying to fix PZ sounds" Don't do it, man! Don't go down the rabbit hole!

[analog sandal]

yeah that's my advice, don't try to fix the sound, not worth it, at most change the volumes in the audio tab in the options

[atomic storm]

Keep in mind that PZ is not finished development yet. I'm sure the audio issues will be addressed after they get the more important stuff done. I'm sure there will be an audio update when they are finished with fixing mp, finishing npcs, and more optimization stuff. And while I do agree the sounds aren't the best, I'd have to argue that AAA game devs have released games with significantly worse audio then what PZ has now

[analog sandal]

you simply shouldn't make beginner level mistakes whether you're launching alpha 0.1 or 1.0 full release, this is not a question of placeholders as I'm not talking about the assets themselves

[uncut depot]

No, this stuff is fairly hardcoded in. They're going to have to redo basically their whole sound implementation to fix a lot of it.

[atomic storm]

Oh, I didn't know it was hardcoded.

[uncut depot]

(Which is a shame, because FMOD is so versatile, modders could be doing a whole lot with PZ sounds if we had access to specific things)

[atomic storm]

Well I'm sure everything will be perfect when the game hits 1.0 in 2080

[analog sandal]

that tells me a lot about the time i invested/wanted to invest into it to improve it for the other players 😄

[atomic storm]

Maybe it was done like that due to limitations in the engine or something?

Either way, PZ could really use a full audio overhaul.

[analog sandal]

no, you have to go out of your way to do this, the default is flat and without such hassles, FMOD is very intuitive and lets you do the things you'd imagine

well I'm doing what I can but finding out that everything I've implemented (over 500 sounds now) will sound about 20% worse without me being able to rectify it does put a hamper on my work

[atomic storm]

I saw your vid on your sound mod, I think it all sounds pretty good.

[analog sandal]

it'a bandaid

[atomic storm]

It's a Hello Kitty band-aid.

Top of the line

[analog sandal]

😄
but seriously, in around 10min with FMOD, there are so many improvements that could be many by any Regular Joe, but I suppose immersion is below the new features on the priority list for some time now

[atomic storm]

probably cuz everyone keeps bitching about mp

[analog sandal]

this has been an issue for around 5y now

[atomic storm]

I've been playing PZ for a few years now, been following since nearly the start, and I've never noticed the audio quality til now.

[analog sandal]

you get used to it bc you associate the sounds with the game, but it's not a compromise that should be made

[atomic storm]

Damn you, now I can never hear PZ the same way ever again. I'll always hear the low quality now. 😞

[analog sandal]

🤷‍♂️ I didn't make em this way

[atomic storm]

Well, once your mod is finished I'll probably have it on my must have mod list.

[analog sandal]

it rly doesn't meet the definitions of a mod though 🙂 but you'll definitely know once it's out 🙂

btw, for demonstration, the first is my asset in the DAW (as it is meant to sound) the second one is my asset in game (with the highs completely cut off, making it sound muffled and lacking in clarity)

[indigo hound]

SOOOOOOOON!)

[rotund spruce]

can anyone post what vehicles would go into these categories

[latent orchid]

first 3 are quality of vehicle, sports is the fancy ones you find mostly in riverside, farm is not used in the specific sense, so its just random vehicles unless using mods like filibuster. junkyard is random between burnt ones and bad condition.

https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Vehicles

sports ones are listed in that page

[rotund spruce]

Right I'm beginning work on a 'Hell's radio mod' - I've had an idea for a creepy radio station that is a mix of weird radio chatter, static and military/police sounds and dark ambient - I really have no idea of how to implement it yet, but I've begun work on the audio.

[long grove]

sounds cool

[rigid void]

It'll serve no real purpose tbh, just besides hopefully making people think wtf was that? Just to add another layer of horror to it all.

[long grove]

well, most radio mods are like that

That’s not a Jeep @severe ridge silly boi

He UAZ was Russia’s attempt at copying the Jeep

[analog sandal]

in western slavic (and most likely other slavic) countries, we have just come to call this type of vehicle jeep, or sometimes gazik (GAAH-zikh) for the military ones

@fallow bridge The USSR did not try to copy the Jeep, perhaps you meant the UAZ-450 and not the UAZ-469, since it is the UAZ-450 that is more similar to the Jeep but no. But even here both cars had different construction goals and options: UAZ-450 was first made for needs of the military and was a van, FC-150 was a wagon type more. 🙂

I usually refer Jeep as a type, not the brand, semiotics figure out lol

do you know how to make custom makeups?

Yes

I did my makeup. Everything works, but the game doesn't load the texture.
I was told you can help

cool, i never tried myself, Lord there is having a lil trouble

missing guid entries?

all visual things need the unique guid entry in fileguidtable.xml

[late hound]

yeah that is my suspicion, I am assisting him in the Dms - I am jumping on it once I finish the work day.

[severe ridge]

indeed

the xml has a guid number but theres no custom guid file

and its not generating errors because its probably using another item's guid

Hey guys! I was wondering whether someone could help me with modding the game. What should I know before, what should I learn and where to start?

[muted grail]

WOW HOBBIES IS ONLINE NOW

[rigid void]

I've not tried it yet but it looks amazing

gonna try it soon, but gonna verify my files first cos getting lua errors in some places and not sure what mod is causing it 😦

In a few days time I'm going to be looking for assistance with implementing new audio/radio. I can do the audio side of things but I'm brand new to modding/coding, so i may need help.

Right now I'm working on something I've called (working title) Hell's radio which is basically a radio station that plays really odd garbled stuff, with music, strange voices, static and dark ambient noise. Basically I just want it to be an extra layer of horror to the game, probably not lore friendly, but I'm having fun with audio.

But the implementation I'd need help with.

[quick moth]

Would anyone be interested in a new book that teaches you how to read faster? It would be something like a ridiculous 1000 pages and it would get rid of the Slow Reader trait.

@indigo hound what's cheating about it?

"It would be something like a ridiculous 1000 pages and it would get rid of the Slow Reader trait."

🤣

[quick moth]

What's cheating about it?

[indigo hound]

😧

it seemed to me

only hardcore)

[quick moth]

There's a mod that if you abstain from smoking for a month you lose the smoker trait. I don't think that is cheating.

[indigo hound]

this mod is not cheating)
but there is already a faster reading trait

[long grove]

this mod is to let you go from slow reader to normal reading

or normal reading to fast reader

[indigo hound]

What if our character read the pirate codex while reading cooking? As a result, it takes half a game day

Well, if over time the mod allows you to get rid of the slow reading trait, then this is a good idea.
And if 100 pages in 10 game minutes is cheating.)

[warm pollen]

@quick moth You could have 5 books like skill books that each increase book reading speed by 20%. That way by Book 3 you'd be at like normal reading speed and then by finishing the whole series you'd be at Fast Reader speed.

I'm not sure the exact percentages for reduction or addition with the reader traits tbh.

[quick moth]

I believe it's 30% slower and 30% faster.

[warm pollen]

Gotcha. Well, you get the idea I'm tryna throw out there.

So it'd be closer to a 6% increase per book.

[river quail]

so guys, how difficult its to put a animation mod to the game?? can be done using what program?

[long grove]

its like modifying guid files before they overhauled that system

you can mod it in, they'll just have to replace files/code

[late hound]

No one has made a custom animation mod here. I helped make a mod that adds in a bunch of unused animations that can be toggled upon command.

[long grove]

oh, those aren't custom? i am incorrect then

[late hound]

no, animations like the vomit animation are made by Martin, one of the devs. There are quite a few that are unused - like the suicide animations.

I also urge, anyone that does figure out how to make a custom animation, be very careful who you teach and what you make. It is opening Pandora's box, this type of mod. Anyone who is irresponsible with this knowledge can make some very unpleasant and repugnant stuff.

[nimble spoke]

I had a .pack file where tiles were number _00 to _14, but I guess that format has issues, there shouldn't be a zero from 0 to 9 there. So I unpacked, changed it to _0 up to _9 and re-packed, now both the game and tilezed stop responding when I try to use it. Anyone would know how to fix the whole thing? start over?

[nimble spoke]

Welp, I can't start over because apparently I don't understand TileZed dark magic and I can't use it to make a simple pack file

[long grove]

@latent orchid has experience with custom tilesets i believe

[latent orchid]

from memory, you might need to re-add the tileset, remove and replace all the tiles that were linked to the original 00 thru 14 tilesheets.

Basically, renaming stuff tends to break alot of shit

the 00 should work fine i would think

what was the original issue u were trying to fix?

[nimble spoke]

tiles _09 and below won't show up after loading a save

so I guessed it was the zero

[latent orchid]

that file name shouldnt matter (atleast ive never seen this issue).

my tilesets used simple 1,2,3 etc and work fine

[nimble spoke]

yeah, I was going to try that, but I can't even hope to remake the tiles definitions because tilezed doesn't want ot get near the pack file ever again for some reason

[latent orchid]

have you included only your custom tiles or accidentally bundled the vanilla tiles as well?

[nimble spoke]

ohhhhhhhhhhh I forgot the tile names need an int value for the number of characters! silly me

it is just my tiles

I will fix the xml and then repack, that's probably the reason game stops responding

[latent orchid]

ok, but it doesnt sound like anything ive had to do on my end

[nimble spoke]

I had to fix pack's xml before, for some reason tilezed kept adding _0 to the end of every tile name

[latent orchid]

are your editors up to date?

[nimble spoke]

it was.... at some point, probably not right now. It knows I'm not a mapper and tries to sabotage me

I'm fixing it through the packer/unpacker tool

[long grove]

commander is a good luck charm

[nimble spoke]

TileZed can open it now, why the hell didn't I think of the name length value before? I had that same issue, probably a few years ago lol

[latent orchid]

curious, how long was your name?

[nimble spoke]

25, all of them because of the zeroes, I deleted zeroes and forgot to change name length

And that was exactly the problem, I didn't even need to touch tiles definitions because it was already considering _0 to _9 names.... ohhh well

See kids, _00 to _09 does not equal _0 to _9

[woven flicker]

[quick moth]

What's the difference between module base and import base?

[quick moth]

I'm learning just by studying other people's mods lol

[drifting ore]

@woven flicker new players should not have mods experience the game first

I have hundreds of hours and don't use mods

[nimble spoke]

@quick moth module Base is the standard "place" for an item to be listed in. Some of the game's items and many from mods are in other modules and then need to use that import Base line, specially if they reference any items in there

It is considered a good practice to create your own module name to avoid conflicts just in case another modder used the same item name

Do not worry. I'm already remaking men. And make-up will be done for them too.
The game allows you to divide the makeup of men from women.

[quick moth]

If anyone on Steam wanted to play with my mods would they be able to since I own the game on GOG, not Steam?

[long grove]

likely yes

[quick moth]

How would they import it?

the mods?

they could just copy your mod folder and put it in their local folder id assume

[quick moth]

Oh ok, the same way I do it then.

Didn't know if steam would throw a fit

[long grove]

eh, if they have the same mod subscribed and put it in local as a copy itll be fine

mod ids will be the same so no issue

[quick moth]

How do I set the rarity of my item? Idk what 1, 2, 3, 0.01, etc represent

[pine mesa]

@quick moth I think you are referring to the multiplier for rarity - another modder laid them out like so: 0.2 extremely rare, 0.6 rare, 1.0 normal, 2.0 common, 4 abundant

[analog sandal]

then there's the steam workshop

[brave wren]

well you see

i have an issue

so i have a game called noita

i have lots of mod on it

from steam workshop

but when i go in offline mode

(house internet data is gonna run out soon)

the mods arent enabled

they arent even an option

so i want the actual files

[analog sandal]

you can manually copy them into the mod folder to have them "offline"

the actual files still download to your PC

in the steam/workshop folder

[brave wren]

guess which one is noita

[analog sandal]

881100

what do I win?

[brave wren]

is it?

[analog sandal]

yeah that's the noita steam ID

and those are the mods

[brave wren]

bruh wot

how u know

[analog sandal]

every steam game has a specific game ID

PZ is 108600

and eahc mod also has a specific numerical steamID

[long grove]

you can download mods off steam too through a website if needed

[analog sandal]

ours has 2224576262 for example

oh yeah there's that too, but they're already in the folders so you'd be DLing them twice 🤷‍♂️

[long grove]

just saying since theres weird scenarios where you might need it

[brave wren]

are the forums that outdated

[long grove]

they probably haven't been used to upload mods much since they added workshop support

[quick moth]

As a non-steam player I use SteamWorkshopDownloader

[oak cipher]

Is there a mod you can place items on tables? AHHAHAHA

[quick moth]

You can place furniture type things like radios on tables. Or do you mean miscellaneous items?

[mortal ivy]

Roughly speaking. What is a "module base"... and what does it mean if a mod "may have" forgot to import one?

Also on a different note if you have two mods that allow you to craft a vanilla item but just with different recipe methods as long as the source item name is the same in the code overall, it shouldn't cause a problem... right?

[nimble spoke]

check this @mortal ivy

Don't worry too much about it, your main decision is, just go with module Base yourself, or if you want to avoid possible conflicts with the game or other mods, create a new module name for your own use and then import Base

[quick moth]

If I set an item's rarity to 0.01 on male and female zombies, how likely are we talking? 1 in 10000 zombies?

[mortal ivy]

Note that I'm not making a mod or anything of the sort

Just that it's an error for a number of mods I have

And wondered how important it was

And if it were something I could maybe fix

On a similar note(maybe.. sorta)

Would adding a recipe to an existing mod yourself by totally way off base as a method of getting it done/way to sort of learn.

[oak cipher]

Yes like food bowls and stuff - would be great if theres a mod like that

[long grove]

you could probably get the settings of the cdda challenge through custom sandbox if you can find the numbers for it

[bleak atlas]

I took a look at spawnpoints.lua from pillow

from what I can tell there is a function that.... adds all the locations?

but where is this function later called?

oh no

getting a bunch of mods on a zip and sending them to someone is against the rights of the mod creators

the second block, if what is true?

sel:isEmpty() ?

Correct me if I'm wrong given I am often.

But wouldn't it be "bounds = map..."

could be, I don't know much about lua syntax and this is kinda vague.

[fallow lichen]

Very same

[valid stump]

@grizzled grove That

if true then

means that it will always run, not exactly sure why they choose to do it that way but all that is really doing is forcing the code it wrapps to run

[valid stump]

Depends, can you show me what is in the else statement

opps, nvm but yeah there are alot of ways

I would have to see full code

but it could be they are trying a different method or they are in process of a "expansion" of the system

But without the rest of that code i cant really tell 100% the reason

something similar to this

If the mod only works up to a certain version of build 41, you would use:
versionMax=41.999"

is doing the new way of doing the logic. The else in that statement never will get run so my guess is they didnt remove the old way. I am not that familuar with the way the devs think. but the else part can be ignored as far as I can tell

[grizzled grove]

Thanks, it might even be that the script doesn't work at all, I think that one is a one-off fixer anyway. Either way, I don't see myself writing one in that fashion.

[drifting ore]

Очень резкий переход в цветах. Или мадам просто не мыла спинку и зад пол года ?

[indigo hound]

как только замоделишь модельку чтобы булочки были (а там и перемоделишь всю одежду), так сразу сделаю цвета мягче)

[drifting ore]

Ггг.

[indigo hound]

у моели жопа плоская) в прямом смысле

поэтому как мог давал ей объем

спину буду править еще, но не сейчас. сейчас мужиков сделать, а потом уже все полировать

[drifting ore]

Можно просто чуть светлее рельеф

Сами линии

Чуток прям

[indigo hound]

старайся предложения на форуме писать, чтобы не потерялось) да я понимаю.. я сча у мужика мучаюсь с мышцами. чтобы мягкие сразу были

[drifting ore]

Спереди норм. Я имел ввиду сзади

[indigo hound]

тут с попой проблемы, и мышц куча будет, много гемора кароч)

я понимаю) сам вижу)

просто сейчас занят мужиками)

[drifting ore]

Аххаха

[indigo hound]

как сделаю, соберу весь фитбек, и буду полировкой знаниматься)

поэтому оставляй на форуме плиз все)

хотя по спине понятно)

[drifting ore]

@indigo hound так.. друг товарищ. Ты огромный молодец. Но у меня к тебе по теме предложение. Сохраняй все варианты. Что бы были и варианты без мышц и с мышцами... ибо... Малоли кто сможет потом подменять модельки в зависимости от уровня силы

[indigo hound]

мне невлом будет переделать)

• сейчас девушек моделить смысла нет, так как на релизе только им скелет собственный дадут

сейчас у них мужской скелет, изза чего эти ужасные подмышки

[drifting ore]

Блин да. Обидно будет потом все опять переделывать.

[indigo hound]

так что на сейчас - пойдет) при том условии что буду улучшать) абы отзывы были на форуме)

[scenic coral]

i wish i understood any of this

[indigo hound]

Me too. Therefore, I use google translate :D

[indigo hound]

Else in short. We discussed the small shoals of the Better Female mod. And I said that the edits will come later, when reviews accumulate, and I will make Male.

[rigid void]

So I asked earlier and nobody replied. But I understand people are busy with stuff. But i'll ask again.

How easy/difficult would it be to run a game within a game in zomboid? Make a use for the pinball/handheld games/ arcades etc?

not saying anything ridiculous... just something simple? space invaders or whatever? pacman?

again i should state i'm not a coder so forgive my questions if they're stupid.

[long grove]

i believe this is already planned and/or in the works...as for how hard/viable it is i cannot say

[grizzled grove]

It would be easy to make a so called "timed action" where you'd just have a progress bar and a mood improvement when it's done. I think Hydrocraft has several such things if you wanted an example. Something more interactive... I'm not sure, maybe with some fancy UI work you could make a presentable game.

[brave wren]

I have an idea

How about a blend option

Kill zombie

If you have a sharp object to open up the zombie

Take his guts

Cover yourself with them

Boom

You're going crazy

Zombies won't target you temporarily

Until The blood wasges off

Washes

[rigid void]

^ higher chance of infection + depression?

i like it Late

@long grove @grizzled grove thanks for the replies

[hexed anchor]

this already been suggested millions of times

[rigid void]

I'm new to the discord

[carmine cosmos]

Something like this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSBLOwojkr8

[hexed anchor]

like clockwork

[brave wren]

Does it mean its bad?

[analog sandal]

the devs already said no to that in the megathread on the forums iirc

[brave wren]

F u c k

Jee I wonder what modding is for

[carmine cosmos]

One can always create a mod for that

[hexed anchor]

I don't know if it's possible right now

because of how come this is so annoyingly often suggested and yet nobody actually bothered to make it

[analog sandal]

there is the invisibility cheat in the devmenu, so maybe somewhere with that

[brave wren]

Ye

So after you do the shabang with the corpse

And click disguise

You have invisibility to zombies

[fallow lichen]

Only thing that I'd find an issue with that there is that when you make noise even when invisible zombies just come near you but don't attack. So I'm assuming that probably has been attempted previously but to find a way to make them to attack you after cover has been blown on your end is likely too complex

I love the idea, don't get me wrong! 😄

[analog sandal]

feels a tad bit too arcade-ish imho

[fallow lichen]

In my opinion I'm 100% fine without having it. If someone was to mod it I'd think it would be really really cool. That said I'm against the whole idea of avoiding zombification (hence why I don't use the anti-virus mods).

Best way to remove the arcade-ish feel would probably just make a severe amount of negative moodlets with a high chance of contracting an illness if not removed ASAP as well as if you have open woods and Blood & Saliva infection turned on likelihood of infection would be 80-100% chance.

I'd likely not end up getting it but for those who would want it I feel that'd be the best approach

[analog sandal]

yeah that would require checking whether the person is injured. what kind of injury and whether it's bandaged

but sure, I'm all for more options when it comes to mods

[fallow lichen]

Which as I've mentioned before is likely wayyy too complex

[brave wren]

Oo

What if

If you kill zombies in the woods

The blood splatters on trees

And if you get scratched with a bloodied branch

You know what happens

[halcyon sandal]

Does anyone here know where the data on growing crops is? Trying to revive an old mod that stopped working that prevents rot by rolling back to seed-bearing stage

[fallow lichen]

I really like the ambition there but I'm uncertain how that would translate in code. I believe you would have to practically register a tree as an entity and from there it could possibly cause major server issues if used in MP given trees would constantly scan if blood is attached or not

[nimble spoke]

The problem with some mod ideas is that they're too complex to even try and may not be interesting for those who'd know enough and possibly make them work

[halcyon sandal]

It's an old mod that doesn't work and I wanted to try and update it to working again

[halcyon sandal]

hmm im not seeing what makes the mod break

it's literally just this one line in SFarmingSystem.lua

if (luaObject.nbOfGrow >6) then
luaObject.nbOfGrow = 6

[brave wren]

Isn't there a mod that prevents crop rot

[halcyon sandal]

thats what im trying to fix

last updated 2018, not working and trying to see

im looking at this and i just can't figure out why its not working, the mod is literally two lines..

oh jesus i thinkim an idiot

i think the lettuce mod is what is the problem, because it calls its own vegetable conf file

so it doesnt go through the sfarmingsystem

so it rots anyway because its not affected

lmao

maybe

wait what? what file is SFFarmFarmingSystem.lua?

so i am thinking its just incompatibility with the lettuce mod and the never rot mod..

but im not positive

[halcyon sandal]

omg im an idiot

SF is soul filcher lmao, it's a file in farming time mod

okay so the never rot mod overwrites the grow function, but the Farming Time mod creates its own grow function

[nimble spoke]

The best way for you to avoid that conflict is to override each separate growth function

I absolutely must override that function in my farming time mod because it is the core change that allows for compatibility between mods that use my system

If you don't want crops to rot, you can totally do that without touching the that function

[tacit portal]

` recipe Make Sturdy Stick
{
TreeBranch,
keep KitchenKnife/HuntingKnife/MeatCleaver/FlintKnife/Machete,

    Result:WoodenStick,
    Time:100.0,
    Category:Survivalist,
    OnGiveXP:Recipe.OnGiveXP.WoodWork2,
}`

Is there a reason why this isn't showing up? The file I created is called Sturdy_stick.txt

Like, it's in the modlist, and enabled, but in game there's still just the default recipe

And not my new recipe elsewhere?

Oh shoot, figured out my problem

forgot the module base

[brave wren]

i wish there was a mod for escape from tarkov kind of inventory system

like if there's a spot for a book to be turned horizontally and put it there so you can clear room for say a shotgun

that would be super neat and immersive imo

[humble kernel]

there isnt and its impossible to make it

[brave wren]

idk about impossible doe

[plucky nova]

no. its LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

[brave wren]

hmm

how about better walls

like you can make stone walls

but with the required knowledge

and the skills

just a copy and place wood wall

but stronger and looks stoney

[late hound]

that is possible, a lot of work, but possible

[brave wren]

bruh

just a copy paste wooden wall with different stats is alot of work?

wtf is pz

is it that hard to do it in pz

[analog sandal]

looking forward to your mod then, @brave wren

[fallow lichen]

An overwhelmingly positive reviewed game on Steam. That all said I can't wait to see what mods you have with how much ambition you speak out.

[brave wren]

hey uh

some mods are requiring gearbasic

and gearcore

what are those

[long grove]

blairs bases for his various mods

[brave wren]

can you please link them

i searched basiccore and didnt find it

[long grove]

if you go to the mod that requires it you'll find the prereq

[river quail]

@brave wren are you downloading the mods in the workshop?

[halcyon sandal]

If you don't want crops to rot, you can totally do that without touching the that function
@nimble spoke
Would you have any idea on how to do that? I'm basically a dummy at coding and haven't taken a class in years

I literally just need to slide those two lines into each grow function I think

Doing it manually is feasible but annoying, I'd rather figure out a mod to do it automatically

And it's really just looking at every nbOfGrow when they're called and changing anything greater than a 6 to 6

love your mods azakaela

[abstract raptor]

Thank you! 😄

[quick moth]

I wish you could randomize music to loop without having to script all the timestamps that force it to end eventually.

[quick moth]

Like an automated music station. Then again this is 1993.

[brave wren]

yo

what if

putting a disinfected bandage on a bleeding wound

will give you some pain points

maybe drive you to the agony moodle

cuz you know

alcohol

on wound

agony

[viral compass]

Hey guys, question time.
For my map I made a bunch of custom tiles
For some of these tiles I want an item overlay to happen so I added them in the worldfiller.lua file which I put in my mod.
Now it appears that either I have to add all the vanilla stuff in my modded wordfiller.lua file as well otherwise the vanilla stuff doesnt work. From this I take my worldfiller file overwrites the vanilla one.
How do I set up my wordfiller.lua stuff so it works alongside the original vanilla worldfiller.lua file?

[fallow lichen]

Having gone through medical combat training as well as having personally applied alcohol to an open wound the sharp pain that follows soothes seconds afterwards so as much as one would believe and as Hollywood likes to make people believe in movies disinfecting a wound is actually more relieving after the initial burning sensation.

So if there was the agony moodlet to be honest it'd be very brief. edit: if not seconds long.

[brave wren]

oh cool

i thought of this when i sprayed alcohol on my scratch from my cat

not intentionally

hurt alot

[fallow lichen]

Yeah it stings a bit but the sensation ends unlike if you wouldd've left it untreated.

The dirt in a wound is gritty and as it rubs together that is what causes more pain.

[nimble spoke]

@halcyon sandal I will check the options, it is probably better to ignore the code iin the mod you're trying to fix and start all over

[halcyon sandal]

I love all your mods, just trying to make an option for people!

If only there was a way to insert a couple lines of code into existing code

Like a table

Insert (line ) into (code at this line)

[halcyon sandal]

Maybe append

[halcyon sandal]

For now I guess just putting the line manually into all the grow functions will have to suffice 🤷🏽‍♂️

[severe ridge]

bringing couple of old items i've made with Mr.Hardcore back

@severe ridge Does your mod work with fashion montage?

works, but you can only pick my stuff if you use the expansion because its broken when i try to split 🤷

Survivor Radio

adds a whole bunch of music and stories with voice acting (not all) that play on the radio and on TV to add a lot of life to the game

Fili's cars, crashed cars too

then book sorting mod

[abstract raptor]

Survivor Radio recently had an update that added back a bunch of music from the 90s era

[analog sandal]

adds new cars

[abstract raptor]

I believe it adds a bunch of custom cars

and other vehicles

like buses

and RVs

no motorcycles

I don't think

[analog sandal]

no motorcycle, that would be very hard to make in PZ currently, if not impossible

well the project im working on is not out yet so that's all the mods that I'd say are really really vanilla+ styled

maybe fashion montage but you could turn that too OP

and customizable zombies

yeah that one

so am i

[river quail]

theres a guy who are making planes and boats right? maybe he can do a motorcycle
