[severe ridge]

its not like clothing on which i can just tell to attach to a bone by code :x

[tranquil field]

Are mods that add radio stations easy to make?

I wanna get into modding and I have literally no clue how to code but I'm determined.

Any advice in general, too?

[wicked crane]

download survivor radio and take a peek at it.

smacks lips

[old harbor]

someone even thinked of releasing a visible holster mod?

like the ones of paw low lot

[round zenith]

if getPlayer():getInventory(0) == GuitarAcoustic trrying to write lua to check if an item I am deconstructing is equal to a certain item but the if statement in LUA is messing me up, how badly off am I with this if statement? Is this not how I should be referencing the object that is being using in this crafting recipe?

[sour island]

if you have the item as a variable already you can use instanceof to check it

also, recipes can be done in scripts I thought? no need for lua

[round zenith]

true they can but if for example I am trying to deconstruct something and always want to give wood but only some times other resources then I need Lua

from my testing it seems to only work with a 1:1 ratio but 1:2 ratio for crafting recipes

Also ideally I want it to only have one recipe but output differently depending on the resource deconstructed

[sour island]

you could abuse OnCreate

[round zenith]

I have the object spawning working its only the if statement tripping me up

[sour island]

post the function here

[round zenith]

function guitarCrafting_OnCreate(items, result, player)
if getPlayer():getInventory(0) == GuitarAcoustic then
player:getInventory():AddItem("wood")
if getPlayer():getInventory(0) == AmmoStraps then
player:getInventory():AddItem("string")
end

[sour island]

what is items in this case?

[round zenith]

GuitarAcoustic

the plan is to then build additional if statements below it to handle different items

@sour island does this make sense?

[sour island]

yah

[round zenith]

cool wasnt sure.

[sour island]

not 100% sure what your end goal is

but are you adding a context option for this deconstruction?

[round zenith]

the end goal is to make it so that there is single recipe that has many different junk item to deconstruct without having to have a separate recipe for each item, so that you can queue up many at once

[sour island]

like when you're calling guitarCrafting_OnCreate( is there an actual item in the items argument?

[round zenith]

OnCreate:guitarCrafting_OnCreate,

thats a no... unless its able to reference from the item in the recipe above it

[sour island]

so this is like a "deconstruct all" kind of deal?

[round zenith]

exactly so the recipe is like this without include a million items

1 sec ill paste

[sour island]

I would recommend using a for loop then

[round zenith]

recipe Scrap Junk
{
GuitarAcoustic/AmmoStraps ,
keep [Recipe.GetItemTypes.Hammer],

   Sound:Hammering,
 Time:100.0,
 Category:Survivalist,=
 OnCreate:guitarCrafting_OnCreate,

}

is there no way I can pass what the item in recipe to the lua oncreate?

[sour island]

local playerInv = getPlayer():getInventory():getItems()

for i=0, playerInv:size()-1 do
local item = playerInv:get(i) --runs through player's inventory 1 item at a time
end

this is what I use for autoeat

I think you can use instanceof(item, X)

I'm just not sure what X should be

in the lua files they have "Food" or "HandWeapon"

so it may be the class or type

[round zenith]

@sour island thanks I think I have a solve, ill make it two recipes one to strip to core item and then final to process

[sour island]

instanceof(item, "Moveable") instanceof(item, "InventoryItem")

ok

[round zenith]

ill dm you if i mess it up but I think this puts me on the right path towards something ill be ok with pushing live

[sour island]

good luck

[round zenith]

thanks

[round zenith]

@sour island do items in the base game referenced in if statements need Base.ITEMNAME?

[solar mulch]

life saver

[plucky nova]

its kinda sad that everyone just kinda fuckin ignored this

sorry about that bro

[wicked crane]

<--------------------------------------------------------
Apparently no one has noticed until this scrub did |

[plucky nova]

what are you trying to point to lmao

me?

[wicked crane]

ME

[plucky nova]

bruh

im sorry lmao

[nimble spoke]

I'd say they will all get screwed like the beard I tried

[undone elbow]

Is it possible to know (from Lua) which txt files are rewritten by mods?

[cursive bramble]

So it would be correct to think there has not yet been any mods that added other particle effects or such effects like blood splatter? Smoke effects or some such. Either as a bunch of sprites or not.

[cursive bramble]

Sadface. Maybe some fakery can be done using IsoObject...

[drifting ore]

Is there a mod that makes walkie-talkies lighter when in hand or on belt? They are super heavy like bruh.

@ me pls if ye

Like it totally should be lighter when equipped

[wicked crane]

@drifting ore what should it weigh iyo

@drifting ore Considering the large metal sheet is 1.5 zomboid units lol; is that really that walkies vanilla weight or mod?

[hollow shadow]

when u mix PLL with Scrap Armor

[drifting ore]

wtf

[severe ridge]

lmao

It's not very efficient to use that one-handed :p

i mean, it is while you have stamina xP

[tranquil field]

Going to try and make an Ouija Board mod

where you find one, you click a button and there's a small chance you get a randomised response

May allow questions to be asked

[hollow shadow]

it hits super fast lmao, faster than a salvaged shiv

[hollow shadow]

feels lighter than cardboard

[severe ridge]

nerf inbound

heavy weapons are so bad at apocalypse, thats why tbh

[hollow shadow]

you should make it 4x as slow but 2x damage

[severe ridge]

but swords damage are high enough (?) well, at least it would be a guaranteed death even if tired i guess

gotta test it more

[hollow shadow]

i was using the katana before, it felt stronger than your sword, shouldnt be, considering that your sword is alot more rare than the katana which can be found on zombs

[severe ridge]

🤔 probably the lower critical chance

criticals are usually what oh-ko zombos

[halcyon marlin]

if i add clothes do i have to make a male and female version? i am skimming through the clothes files rn and seeing an M and F_ prefix or Kate and Bob for all of them

[severe ridge]

<clothingItem>
    <m_MaleModel>skinned\clothes\bob_jacket</m_MaleModel>
    <m_FemaleModel>skinned\clothes\kate_jacket</m_FemaleModel>```

ye, but you can use one for both depending :f

they do use the same texture tho

[halcyon marlin]

nice, i appreciate that

i might try and make some new hats or helmets just to play with clothing without screwing with the rig too much

[drifting ore]

All things are lighter when equipped.

BUT

RADIOS

for some reason

[severe ridge]

katanas can cut through tanks and steel plates right

[severe ridge]

Any idea on how to get the blood level value (bloody dirty) from weapons? 8l

[undone elbow]

@severe ridge katana:getBloodLevel()

[severe ridge]

so getBloodLevel is a thing? good

couldnt find anything related on the current documentation

get and set right?

[undone elbow]

I haven't tested it. You can check ALL available functions on weapon. https://pastebin.com/k7PgtWDL

[severe ridge]

works perfectly

can keep bloodlevel even after weapon change script

[severe ridge]

trying to find new ways to animate a shield

[wicked crane]

god

[tough igloo]

medieval pog

[hollow shadow]

thought about giving it flashlight anims too, but i think the default anim looks better when the character is running

[hollow shadow]

i guess its better if you are using a very very large shield

[hollow shadow]

tbh i do be lookin kinda smooth while using handguns ;v;

[crisp trellis]

Is it just me? or is almost every custom sound for weapons super glitchy, flicking between ears and such as you turn or move while attacking or shooting, Ive noticed this with every weapon mod that has custom sounds.

[hollow shadow]

thats a game bug 🙂

[hollow shadow]

When 32x32 is too small PT2

I'm dying trying to make it attached to the back properly

Plugging the loot from other mods into the labs mod.

[topaz quiver]

XaneToday at 5:44 PM
Yo folks! i hope all is good. Need some help. I use the cheat menu mod which works well for maxing all stats. BUT when you use a mod for example "better lockpicking". The cheat menu doesn't max that. I tried downloading a cheat script which kind of looks like this:
character:getXp():AddXP(Perks.PlantScavenging, 1000);

I tried replacing Perks.PlantScavenging to Perks.Lockpicking but that didn't work.. How do i make a cheat to max a skill from a mod? Thanks!!

[sour island]

you'd have to figure out what lockpicking is actually called as a Perk

[topaz quiver]

@sour island and how do i do that?

[hollow shadow]

search thru the mod idk

[hollow shadow]

guys

what do yall think of a lategame recipe needing a small amount of the combat skill?

[shrewd grove]

lategame
yeah thats fine.

[sour island]

wouldn't that break people who would play as a blacksmith or such?

[hollow shadow]

Not realy, as its a very low recruirement of level 1

It stops ppl from taking too much advantage of going metalworker and getting the best weapons 😛

[hollow shadow]

i havent heard of a blacksmith that didnt at least practice once a week with their own weapons :v

[hollow shadow]

Also, they can still craft the lower tier weapons such as scrap blade, scrap machete, etc.

[hollow shadow]

would be neat if the characters would blink with their eyes, its a small detail but would make the chars alot more lively :I

[sour island]

equip some eyelids

[late hound]

and mouths!

[severe ridge]

i thought about making a animated eye but there's no way to include gifs or anything to the textures :x would need to be made from scratch

[hollow shadow]

it would be realy cool tho :I

[halcyon marlin]

@severe ridge do you know if there is a guide or youtube video out there to make clothes for b41, you are really good at it and i am curious where you learned

[fallow bridge]

You can’t really make clothing atm, well you can but it breaks, at least that’s what pawlow has told me when I asked for a parka

[late hound]

No you can make custom clothing, it just depends on what you want and if its possible and feasible.

[halcyon marlin]

how was the swat pack made? I’m just curious in general how to do it so I can get some tips and research from there, i just dont really know where to start, but you definitely can make custom clothing

[round zenith]

for i=0, playerInv:size()-1 do
local item = playerInv:get(i) --runs through player's inventory 1 item at a time
print(item)
if item.ClothingItem == Necklace_GoldRuby then

where am I going wrong with the above if statement?

i have been stuck on this for hours

[grizzled grove]

Not a lua modder, but shouldn't that be Base.Necklace_GoldRuby (or wherever it comes from)?

[wicked crane]

It's called "Locksmith"

[round zenith]

didnt fix it Error: ExceptionLogger.logException> Exception thrown java.lang.RuntimeException: attempted index: Necklace_GoldRuby of non-table: null at KahluaThread.tableget line:1689.

[humble kernel]

do they spawn after a few days or can spawn in the first day?

[cursive timber]

Quick question regarding using mods, do mods have to be loaded before starting a game? Attempted to switch mods partway through a play through and they don't seem to work, simple mods like weight adjustments ect

[humble kernel]

yeah its recommended, some can break the save if you change them and then play on the save

[crisp trellis]

Im gonna ask here because I dont know if this fits anywhere else.

Im building a base in creative and such using cheats for screenshots and just because Im bored, and I deleted a corner of a wall by accident and after an hour or so sifting through Necro forge and cheat menu and such I cant find a way to spawn it back, Is there something Im missing?

Really bugs me knowing its there even if its an area Im not going to go to much.

Its the very corner and I didnt even know that could be deleted.

[crisp trellis]

Alright found a copy paste feature in necro that worked fine, crisis averted.

Its under brushes if anybody else is having a similar issue

[cursive bramble]

another question from me - though more a seek for clarification
It looks like there is no event that fires on quit to main menu, either for single or multiplayer.

Im looking for an event that fires before - i need to interact with the players inventory just before state change.

[cursive bramble]

alright. found OnSave on quit.

[severe ridge]

Guys, i might have fixed the Kitsune's Crossbow mod double racking thing :l just replace if youre willing to test properly

im not making a 3rd "tweaked" mod for it xD

yeah, found the only problem is that the crossbow model doesn't updates when racking (only after taking the bolt out without shooting) otherwise the crossbow string model updates works perfectly

rather have a small visual problem than a broken mechanic :x

[hollow shadow]

btw the metal crossbow has flipped normals :v

[severe ridge]

🤷 its probably harder to fix from the imported model

[cunning canyon]

if it a final version, please upload it on workshop 🙂

[abstract raptor]

looking for people who'd like who'd like to help with the dev of my Cyberpunk map

[round zenith]

@abstract raptor might I recommend going to the mapping channel for that?

[abstract raptor]

Well -- This isn't just a mapping thing. It's kinda an overhaul. Gonna need new items, models, weapons, all the things

I'm even changing the zombie textures and doing custom tiles

and sound effects

[round zenith]

recipes and items are pretty easy, I would say you dont need experience to get that far, once you start to deal with stuff past that it gets a little more complex

if you have graphics for items and idea lmk I can show you and get you at least pointed in the right direction

[abstract raptor]

inhale

I could do it myself, but I'm choosing to open this up for collaboration

I believe things are better when a team works on them

[round zenith]

dont you mean exhale?

[abstract raptor]

No, I was inhaling cuz I felt you took me as someone who doesn't know what they're doing

I've made lots of mods

that do different things

I was just seeing if anyone wanted to collab

Because collaboration brings out REAL art.

When people work together as a team, it's 100x more palpable

for instance, I don't decide everything myself, a group makes compromises and through that a better product is made in the end

I've already got a couple people on my team.

[zealous wing]

Is there a item tag that lets you replace an item with another item when it freezes or thaws?
I.e., something akin to "replace on frozen" or anything of the sort?

[round zenith]

ReplaceOnRotten = IcecreamMelted,

[zealous wing]

I know about replace on rotten, I'm asking if there's an equivalent relating to an item thawing/freezing.

basically, I have an ice tray filled with water, I'd like it to turn into ice after sticking it in a freezer and waiting.

Sigh, it doesn't exist, does it?

[round zenith]

I dont think so, just looked at the items that I know can thaw

[zealous wing]

Sad.

[round zenith]

you could make it so that when its crafted its in the rotten state

then use lua to freeze

[zealous wing]

Lame. I'll just straight recipe it I guess.

[polar flame]

Is it possible to just make a new type of chair furniture (maybe a pink chair for example) and add it to a save I already have, then spawn it in with say, necroforge? And would adding such things in the middle of an existing save be particularly dangerous to the integrity of the save? I ask because for a multiplayer server I would be interested in giving players custom flags on flagpoles for their bases and spawning them in to plant them in the ground, but I don’t know if loading them in (the mod that adds said flag) now and then during an occasional server restart could harbor issues with the integrity of the save

[topaz pendant]

say is/has anyone ever planned on making a mod similar to WPI (west point incident)mod?

[craggy furnace]

probably gonna ditch this style

[wicked crane]

Take a look at commanders hobby mod

[craggy furnace]

@wicked crane you wot

[wicked crane]

lel, it's tarkov. Is that not what you're modeling?

Looks like the same helm. Either way, don't scrap it. Looks like it's gonna be neat

[craggy furnace]

No, it’s an M1 helmet

[wicked crane]

Ah, yeah tarky is ssh68 I think

[craggy furnace]

I have a CVC helmet, Cavalry hat, and this currently in the works

[wicked crane]

But still point being, don't scrap it looks good

Is cvc one from fili wip

[craggy furnace]

In all have about 7 different new items of clothing and I’ll be looking at adding rolling up sleeves and tucking in pants for army fatigues

Yes

I may redo it

I was just redoing the UV for this model

[wicked crane]

That will be neat. You going to completely redo the pant to have a "cuff" model at boot hight, or do what pants / tights /leggings do, and just be smaller than the boot so they don't clip?

There's probably so many more tricky things you can pull

I just don't know them

[craggy furnace]

I have a pic

Let me see if I can find it

[severe ridge]

🥲 we need it

[craggy furnace]

Yes

[severe ridge]

use clothing extra option lel

[craggy furnace]

I tried lol

It was a fuck

I have it shelved for now pending the models being done and in the game

Then I’ll move back into this and merge it

[abstract raptor]

can someone remind me how to inserts into the distrubtions?

I wanna make a custom container

[polar flame]

I don’t really understand how it relates to my question from what I’m looking at here

[wicked crane]

Because his mod adds a new texture pack, collectible items that you can place on the ground, counter surface level, etc

[polar flame]

I see, thanks

[wicked crane]

Good luck, I don't know how much works in b40 or if it's relatively the same.

I want bean bags :/

The chill sack

[hollow shadow]

Someone make a mod where u can stack vehicle wheels and place them as cover / barricade / wall :p

[severe ridge]

didnt snake did something related? /hmm

[hollow shadow]

what would yall think if i made a mod that made some items visible when carried in hands? like bound log stacks.

[nimble spoke]

I'd say you may end up doing something the devs might want to do later

[nimble spoke]

if you think that's worth your time, then go for it anyway

[tawdry kelp]

thought of something that might be worth implementing into the game via modding- being able to turn off static appliances like fridges/box freezers/street lamps to save generator power. i like having fridges for storage but i'm not thrilled to have them waste fuel if there's nothing actually important in them. i also wish vaulting low fences didn't make you trip like an idiot and break your clothes all the time even when completely calm, it's super annoying.

the most annoying part about it is that it never happens if you use "walk to" and it's not even dependent on your panic level, so even if you're just leisurely hopping a fence you might ruin your clothes.

i definitely like the idea of tripping and hurting yourself but the only time it ever happens is when i'm just carrying logs back to my base or something, never when it would actually be kind of interesting (i.e. when you're being chased down)

[vestal umbra]

how to update the vorpal weapon mod?

i saw the pastebin link but dunno what to do

[analog saffron]

Hello, I have resumed the work on the creation of buildings that I had started a little while ago before version 40, I would like to know if the .tmx files are still necessary in the workshop files! Thank you.

[wicked crane]

nope

[analog saffron]

ok thank's! 🙂

[drifting ore]

I can't wait to see your mod roll out eventually, more clothing more fashion!

[hollow shadow]

me trying to bypass armor modeling be like:

[tame mulch]

mmm, incorrect scale on model)

[tame mulch]

set it on 1.0 1.0 1.0

[hollow shadow]

might be the straps causing issues idk

[hollow shadow]

where can i edit that? i think i already got it on 1 1 1

[hollow shadow]

lmao nice

i just noticed that i have been updating kate model instead of bob model

IT WORKS

[drifting ore]

Crazy, is that your scrap armor or is that some new armor mod of yours? Wood armor?

[hollow shadow]

yes i made the scrap armor mod, i was limited to retexturing existing vanilla clothing there, im trying to add new custom models now, what you see on that pic is just a placeholder

[drifting ore]

Hum, well if it works it works! Viability is what sustains me, so I'll most likely love it either way!

[hollow shadow]

so it works, i can make custom models for armor pieces as long as its attached to one limb, meaning u can have 2 different ones on each side of upper arm :v

time to make high quality scrap armor with spikes, sawblades, whatever i fkin want

[cursive bramble]

so i can mad max my character ?

[hollow shadow]

yesss

[cursive bramble]

if you know rick and morty. give me a helmet from that mad max style episode...for giggles.

[severe ridge]

dont worry guys, special weapons and tactics is on the way lel

[severe ridge]

sharp

[severe ridge]

zzzzzz

[tawdry kelp]

love the backwards text, good touch

[severe ridge]

uehauhuae its not mine, im just bringing it back with a little help

but its cool indeed

[tawdry kelp]

ahh

[severe ridge]

had to implement some new stuff like blood and new physics but its safe, i swear lmao

[willow estuary]

T.A.W.S. is my favoritest van brand!

[severe ridge]

😆

ECNALUBMA its a nice as well

but the side one makes no sense right?

golly

[willow estuary]

Yeah, just flip the two side logos in the png and it'll be fine?

[severe ridge]

opens photoshop with game and blender running
laptop is crying 🥲

tawssss

[craggy furnace]

soon

[drifting ore]

Would it be possible to convince you to release the swat van in the tiny form as a separate joke mod? It's soooo adorable I need it to break my immersion.

[latent monolith]

you like apparent holsters

[tawdry kelp]

seconded, a mod that just makes all the vehicles tiny would be great

[drifting ore]

Yessssssssssss

[cursive bramble]

I am constantly wondering....Is it at all possible to dynamically change cars model? i mean there is textures for lights - i dont know how involved modded vehicle making is BUT could we in theory have like a pickup truck (or to my culture a bakkie) without a flatbed canopy and add one later (perhaps increase in trunk space?)

[frail brook]

anyone knows how can i get exact offset and rotation coordinates for weapon attachments?

[drifting ore]

Hi I am new looking for a way to replace characters model and animation

[hollow shadow]

not possible afaik

[drifting ore]

Hmmm so you mean I have to change the game it self but I can't mod it 😅

[drifting ore]

@hollow shadow

[hollow shadow]

i think so

[drifting ore]

Ok 👌

[abstract raptor]

heya, can anyone help get custom items to spawn on zombies?

I tried making a table insert for the things but they're not showing up; think I did something wrong

oops that's the same thing twice

lol

oof how do I keep forgetting simple stuff like a singular {

[tame mulch]

boolean algebra is OP

[severe ridge]

you can array it too but gotta call it

        rolls = 1,
        items = {

            --"Base.", 0.05,

        }
    },
    inventoryfemale = {
        rolls = 1,
        items = {

            --"Base.", 0.05,
        }
        
    },```

[gaunt pendant]

You should probably let the game do the merging, instead of overriding the base game values @abstract raptor

https://gist.github.com/Tiax/b43bead9f93b2794053817b1ed4457c4

[abstract raptor]

ahh

[gaunt pendant]

Plenty of mods with... questionable implementations regarding loot tables 😅

There's also events for it: OnPreDistributionMerge / OnPostDistributionMerge

[abstract raptor]

hm... gosh I dunno what I am screwing up, I feel so dumb >.< Been at this all morning

[abstract raptor]

@gaunt pendant hey, I was trying it out but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. The items still don't show up on corpses or crates

[gaunt pendant]

Mhh dunno, maybe try to isolate what's working and what isn't

e.g. dump SuburbsDistributions in the OnPostDistributionMerge event, see where your stuff ends up

example ```local function postDistributionMerge()
-- dump the final loot table (post merge) to logfile in debug mode:
if getDebug() then
print("[LOOTDEBUG] postDistributionMerge: SuburbsDistributions =")
debugLuaTable(SuburbsDistributions, -5)
print("[LOOTDEBUG] ---------------------------------------------")
end
end

Events.OnPostDistributionMerge.Add(postDistributionMerge);```

[abstract raptor]

I commented on that link you shared

new to that site

[gaunt pendant]

I think you're missing at least a closing bracket between #24 and #25

[abstract raptor]

😭 The evil missing bracket strikes again

[gaunt pendant]

additionally

you're missing a couple commas

at end of each item line

[abstract raptor]

.< thanks for catching that

Well would you look at what I found 😮

[gaunt pendant]

magic 🙂

[abstract raptor]

whats even more magic; Haxxing the system with ur l33t skillz to spawn urself cigarettes

[quartz sage]

Hey Mod Makers, suggestion: Make the screen flash red and maybe a heartbeat noise play when the character is near death.

Source: I just got killed by a backpack.

[nimble spoke]

@cursive bramble Totally possible, you can set models and their visibility for any part you want

[wicked crane]

This is why I play with Immersive Overlays but everyone gets annoyed with it after awhile because they force their char past their limits

[quartz sage]

It hasn't been updated since 2015, does it still work?

[wicked crane]

@quartz sage ye
just fine

[quartz sage]

Yep, I installed it, it's working exactly how I wanted. Thank you!

[wicked crane]

Is there a way to enable Zombie inventory weight? Or simulate it?

Afaik when the player reanimates the Zed doesn't care if you were overweight for example, it could turn instantly into a sprinter.

If the AI can be "effected by weather", surely there must be a way to achieve something like this?

[cursive bramble]

then one of the mods i am making will have even more features if i figure how to or get someone to collab on the vehicle additions i dream of...

first i need to remember how on earth i made an IsoThumpable persist between my save + load

[strong spindle]

hi everyone you know how to spawn alone with the Serious Survivors and Superb Survivors mod because every time I spawn with NPC and he pulls me up

[humble kernel]

settings > superb survivors > wife/husband spawn > off

@strong spindle

[strong spindle]

not that it is at the beginning I spawn with 5 NPC and 2 or 3 NPC its hostile and we shoot above as possible to sapwn with my wife alone and the others in other house

[humble kernel]

weird idk

[strong spindle]

so there is nothing i can do for sapwn alone with my wife

[hollow shadow]

did you set raider spawn to instant?

[strong spindle]

I don't know if I put them because I suck at English because I am French

[prisma wren]

can someone make a stalker clothing mod

[autumn garnet]

Hello everyone, my first model on blender and my first mod in progress 🙂 it's air horn to attract zombies

[twilit python]

Simple concept and looks great. Very cool man!

[severe ridge]

fuoooo

[autumn garnet]

Thanks, I was inspired by this scene

[analog saffron]

Cool, an alternative to the car siren! 🙂

[hollow shadow]

yall think its possible to easaly add another welding mask item? which would have the same functinality as the vanilla one?

[strong spindle]

@carmine cosmos because every time I spawn I get shot

[carmine cosmos]

Perhaps it could be rigged with a timer?
Dunno how that would work conceptually, but it would be incredibly useful 🤔

[prisma wren]

like a clamp that squeezes the air horn thing after its released by something once the timer ends

[willow estuary]

Air horns only hold seconds of air in them.

[autumn garnet]

Good idea, i will try i'm new in everything 🤣 blender, lua ... but it's good for training

[autumn garnet]

The more we use the air horn, the more quickly the state will drop

[severe ridge]

dude is full scrap nihongo with a fat ass nodachi

pretty cool

[hollow shadow]

Yeah, parts of it is definately inspired by the samurai armor

[elder cobalt]

when will we have full plate armor

https://tenor.com/view/dan-dabbing-knight-armor-dramatic-gif-14257885

[hollow shadow]

paw low alrdy made :v

[severe ridge]

kind of

[hollow shadow]

but i will make craftable version 😛

[severe ridge]

:v

[hollow shadow]

damn im jelly i also want full armor set irl

[severe ridge]

yeah, some day i'm just going to discard everything and make custom models properly :v

[elder cobalt]

dope

[severe ridge]

before nerfs

[wicked crane]

Would pair nicely with the SoC Cursor 👀

[hollow shadow]

how has the new shield animation been working for you?

[hollow shadow]

its very painfull to do :I all the progress i showed so far took me about 50 hrs or so, i just got lots of time becouse of my 1 week holiday 😛

[wicked crane]

Anyone know the name of the "warming up" animation when your character sits at a fire and holds their hands out?

[hollow shadow]

https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/salvagedmachete-46b2b1a7457a405d93042703f50dfe68

[severe ridge]

ha

if we could use filters/materials properly eh

pretty nice

[craggy furnace]

heavy WIP

[wicked crane]

Does anyone know if it is possible to make an item permanently equipped to the player? Like soulbound item almost

[severe ridge]

if you set as a wound, the only way to remove is dropping and reloading the save. not sure about creating more restrictions e_e

theres probably a way to hide it from the inventory

i thought about that before when i was tripping about how mutations could work in pz

or gore

[grizzled grove]

maybe via a hidden perk?

[late hound]

@wicked crane The name for that animation is : Bob_SitGround_WarmHands

[wicked crane]

Hmm.. If you expand on this, you should make a "Train Horn" item. Rare spawn in trunk of pick-ups / garages, hook up to new item "Air Tank (compressor)" + "Air Hose".

This way, you could actually have it go off for say ~~ 10~ minutes~~ a reasonable amount of in game time for a decent sized tank. I'm thinking like a large compressor- one you'd see in a auto or machine shop.

Bonus to include a makeshift horn recipe (just use vanilla amplifier I think? + integrate vanilla remote detonators?

[autumn garnet]

Thank you ! I take all the ideas, we will start with something basic and then evolve it, the main objective will be to distract the zombies without using a car or shooting bullets because in a post-apocalyptic universe cars and bullets will be precious

[drifting ore]

i wanna start modding any trail on how to begin

[hollow shadow]

depends what you want to make

[drifting ore]

add new items to the game with its recipes maybe you have been doing that for long enough @hollow shadow so i guess your very good at that

i did go through a lua tutorial and some basic concepts on making recipes on github but it wasn't enough to start

[frail brook]

i have done them partially.

just a bit lazy to attach their respective textures back t them. just a quick collaje of some complete helmets.

btw, if anyone can help me with night vision (LUA/script) , please dm me.

[hollow shadow]

someone make a mod where we can throw every single item that exists at zombies 😛

[frail brook]

mod request: ability to stow guns like this

[analog saffron]

cool 😉

[old harbor]

maybe in the future this will be in the vanilla game, i hope

[wicked crane]

👀 hmm

[frail brook]

looks really nice.

[latent monolith]

Pawlow

[lost spear]

Scrap weeburia armor

Seems legit

Also, is it possible to add no clip on vehicles? Or could you man the collision box not defect anything?

I’d assume that’s not possible

[clear lodge]

Project zomboid lacks lighting sources

[hollow shadow]

i made sure theres not only "weeb" looking armor available... lol..

[lost spear]

haha hey, not saying I dont like it

Just memeing about weeb stuff cause memes

[lost spear]

Add a sick helmet with horns kinda like this

Actually question @hollow shadow if I have the models from another game, how hard would it be to import the armor into zomboid and use it?

[hollow shadow]

lets say, 1 single shoe would take me 1 hour tio import x)

[lost spear]

Jesus really?

[hollow shadow]

yeeah, i cannot add animated clothing so i would ahve to cut them in pieces and attach them to every single bone seperately

[lost spear]

So.

Im curious with importing say chest armor froma game.

Youd have to import it then add it to the chest bone?

Or what ever that bone is called

[hollow shadow]

yes, and you would have to position it, lower the poly count, test that it doesnt clip ingame, add values and stats, etc etc etc

[lost spear]

Jesus christ.

[hollow shadow]

if u gave me 1 armor set i would have to cut it into these bones

and the positioning is also very cancer

[hollow shadow]

the armor set i showed above took me arround 24 hours to make? and i made about 3 different armor sets already

[lost spear]

Jesus christ.

Hahaha I have some ideas for stuff I wanna do so if you dont mind, im the future I may come screaming your way uwu

But I wanna do it myself so I can learn how to do it

Cool thanks man

[sour island]

does lua respect () in OOP?

if true and true and (true or true) then

etc

[fallow bridge]

so nurver just said makin custom animations in PZ is currently possible, this true fam?

if so than Anim Zed is a lie

[late hound]

It's theoretically possible, all Anim Zed is - is the dev's tool for modders to make new animations without the use of their software.

Realistically I would say it would come out in Q4 2021

[fallow bridge]

yeah

and anim zed will certainly make animating in PZ 100% easier

@severe ridge did you know that Pawlow loot includes a gun that only has one working model of IRL

you know which gun that is my friend pawlow?

[severe ridge]

it's optional now

[fallow bridge]

also wrong chat oops

@severe ridge now saying it's a bad thing

just wondering if you know what gun it is

[severe ridge]

everyone will add their own AA12, USAS and famous auto shotties, lemme do the snowflake one

😆

[fallow bridge]

YES

you know

you did your research

[severe ridge]

even fake hydro 41 has a fake aa12

which is awful

[fallow bridge]

@severe ridge you could of done a Six12 though

[severe ridge]

u.u

ew no

[fallow bridge]

the Six12 is literally the Pancor but NOT one working model

also

what guns does your mod add specifically?

[severe ridge]

i like its design u_u fashion

[fallow bridge]

it's design is very unique

sad it was a POS

[severe ridge]

ppsh41, s&w500, pancor jackhammer, vz skorpion 61, lewis gun and a big ass tankgewehr

[fallow bridge]

why make such a weird combo?

[severe ridge]

on the fantasy you got a fat ass minigun, an heavy booty mk19 and the mp5 with m203

oh, theres a m79 as well, in core

[fallow bridge]

heavy BOOTY

[severe ridge]

rn the guns in fantasy dont spawn because i dont wanna watch confused streamers

[fallow bridge]

lol

[severe ridge]

ikr

theres a mas38 as well

before i forget

[fallow bridge]

oh question, did you decide if you wanna do the thing i asked about in DM's or naw?

[severe ridge]

i don't know, i went for uncommon stuff

because weapon mods aren't really what im focusing on

but i like my burst fire please

[fallow bridge]

lol

[severe ridge]

if i have the time e.e" its not hard like i told ya but yeah, would be nice

[fallow bridge]

want me to send you a full like picture list of the object?

so you know exactly what it is and how it looks and shit

[severe ridge]

i get a little dry between the legs when i grab some brita's LMG and it fires like im spinning a gatling hand crank

[fallow bridge]

lol

[severe ridge]

but it will be reworked ikr

[fallow bridge]

but yee paw, you want a better image set of the compression shirt from Division 2 so you know how it looks better

i know the first pic i sent... is a little hard

[fallow bridge]

so how do i make custom traits

i wanna make a Division trait for my character

https://tenor.com/view/the-division-shodow-logo-eagle-skull-gif-16723040

[sour island]

trying to work out something:

local Original_HotbaronKeyPressed = ISHotbar.onKeyPressed

ISHotbar.onKeyPressed = function(key)
Original_HotbaronKeyPressed(self)
end

is it right to assume the key argument is getting lost this way?

trying to patch a mod and I need to overwrite their overwrites back to vanilla lol

the code above is in the original mod as well - but I don't think it works?

[fallow bridge]

so this isn't a real modding question but it does involve fucking with textures and i bet you guys will know it most... where is the union suit aka long johns texture is? i wanna change it to a darker color

[sour island]

did you look in textures?

[fallow bridge]

yeah i can't see it

[sour island]

LongJohns ?

[fallow bridge]

also i love the balaclava texture

long johns

[sour island]

yeah the file is there

named LongJohns

[fallow bridge]

oh fuck found it

dope

[sour island]

there's a top and bottom

[fallow bridge]

i know

i need the full one

well

technically the top would be best

BUT there is no only top

it's either bottom or full

fuck now i gotta make the texture darker without fucking it over to much

boom did it!

hai cutie

@sour island thanks man, i was just being dumb xD

[sour island]

np

[fallow bridge]

now i would add this as a mod... if i knew how to mod pz xD

fuck

@sour island i need you to give me the vanilla texture for the long john xD i forgot to copy it xD

[sour island]

back up and verify cache

[fallow bridge]

and i can't verify game files

[late hound]

https://github.com/FWolfe/Zomboid-Modding-Guide/tree/master/clothing

[fallow bridge]

i've got changes

i don't wanna do

[late hound]

thats my current guide on how to make custom clothing with reusing vanilla 3d clothing models

[fallow bridge]

thanks again chuck

i owe ya

[sour island]

@late hound do you know anything about overwriting another mod's function calls which overwrite vanilla calls?

[late hound]

Can you reiterate that?

[sour island]

I'm trying to patch another mod

local Original_HotbaronKeyPressed = ISHotbar.onKeyPressed

ISHotbar.onKeyPressed = function(key)
stuff here
Original_HotbaronKeyPressed(self)
end

[fallow bridge]

@late hound what about making custom traits?

you have a guide on that?

[sour island]

the original mod has 'stuff here' that I don't want

they have the original function 'stored'

[late hound]

no I never made a custom trait mod

[sour island]

I'm trying to scrap the contents of their modded vanilla function

but I'm pretty sure the original mod didn't link the vanilla at the end right to begin with

I'm fairly new to lua- but I don't see how key is getting used there?

idk if that was any clearer

unless there's a way to have the game ignore a file outright

I kind of don't want to clean up someone else's mod for the sake of my own

[sour island]

quick and dirty solution is to just copy the vanilla functions in

😦

[cursive bramble]

@fallow bridge try downloading custom or more traits mods and reading their code - Its how ive been modding lately. just reverse engineer other code into my own needs..

[willow estuary]

I mean.... ....the more straighforward solution is to just put a disclaimer on your mod page that your mod has a conflict with another mod instead of somehow trying to disable functions that the other mod uses?

I mean, that's gonna cause all sorts of confusion for the end users + whomever is managing that mod that you're trying to disable functions of, so seems counterproductive.

[cursive bramble]

if its a breaking issue then yeah as @willow estuary says - disclaim. Maybe even detect the mod in question and warn users?

try to contact original developer or who ever maintains. see if a patch/fix can be worked out

i wish i could do art. rather than using crate sprite over and over with editted pixels

[sour island]

it's not disabling features- the other mod overwrites functions it doesn't have to and actually breaks vanilla features - I assume because of how old it is

@willow estuary you can dm me if you're curious

[frail brook]

Nice texture, but don't those micro details turn into just some noise on texture in game? Like ones around lower right surface

[hollow shadow]

Nice texture, but don't those micro details turn into just some noise on texture in game? Like ones around lower right surface
@frail brook some people might not see it, but it still looks cool and I learn how to make better models faster.. if I ever decide to make models for a different game. This will bean advantage

[frail brook]

I would suggest to download high poly models from internet, with more complex UV and materials... and try to increase you texturing skills with that. low res/low poly modeling can make false feelings. D.

[hollow shadow]

I don’t want to use any assets from the internet, I make my own models

low res/low poly modeling can make false feelings . D.
@frail brook also not Sure what you mean

[frail brook]

You don't need to use downloaded models in game. I mean just for increasing your texturing skills. PZ modding is very bad place to start SP. You gonna make single material textures with lack of shading and stuff for a very long time.

[pine tree]

So if I wanted to edit rain so that it has more of an effect that could possibly be found in rainmanager.class?

or climatemanager?

[wicked crane]

Hotline Miami Biker Helmet if anyone wants it. (lightened visor a bit from ss- probably still too dark)

[drifting ore]

meh

[wicked crane]

What are you mehing at?

[drifting ore]

at me

looks cool

how are you guys doing mods

is it magic

[solid frigate]

how?

[wicked crane]

webhook probably

[solid frigate]

Not. I ask how he connected the bot and the mod?

I'm trying to use lua sockets, but it doesn't work(

Is there a way to use full Java for modding?

lua is very bad for this

[shadow walrus]

How hard work it be to make a mod that makes it so that when you wear a hat with longer hair, instead of putting it in a pony tail or mullet would it just drape down from the sides of the hat?

[deep dust]

It would need lots of custom 3d models

[shadow walrus]

which i'm assuming is relatively hard to do

I have a small amount of modeling experience but not in pz

[deep dust]

I have 0 modding experience, but this is probably not too complicated. What it will be is tedious and hard to do in a way that doesnt mess up with the vanilla art style

[shadow walrus]

All I want it to look like is something like the Long center parting with a hat covering the top half of it. Wondering how I'd do it

[shadow walrus]

Damn thats sick

Did you just whip that up?

[wicked crane]

Not really.

I'm basically cheatin,

using a hairstyle as a wig

like 90% of hats clip thru hairstyle

[shadow walrus]

Ah like how paw low does?

[wicked crane]

exactly

so if you just mask out the top parts of the "wig"

it might work better

[shadow walrus]

I see

[shadow walrus]

It's surprising it doesn't clip too bad

[wicked crane]

ya you could probably cut away / mask the parts that clip and it would be pretty sweet lookin

[shadow walrus]

I'll look into it and fiddle around with what's available to me

Hopefully one day maybe something like that would make it into vanilla

[wicked crane]

I think the only two hat hair styles are that like pony tail and the short hair style . Yeah it would be nice

[cursive bramble]

ive seen comments how it depends on zoom levels too.

[mellow oyster]

Ok so this is weird, glock 18 is from britas gunpack right? Should allow you to attach the red dots but it isnt working for me lol

Also are there any fps boosting mods for b41?

[fallow bridge]

No

[frail brook]

if you want fps boost you gotta disable mods...

fps boost mods are possible (ie: super-duper low texture pack/"voxelated" models and etc) but i don't think it will make any difference other than slightly reducing loading time

[hollow shadow]

the glock might be from b41 weapons mod

Also if you want higher fps you can decrease zombie pop

[shrewd grove]

meh, mods dont really lag the game.

unless you grab stupidly broken crap.

[mellow oyster]

im on b41, population is insane but at start its only .20 of the pop as it should be.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2288903432 these are my mods

Does britas guns even work properly?

I noticed it seems to be pretty borked rn despite being for b41.

[hollow shadow]

I never tested it, i heard its pretty low quality mod tho, and that it bloats the game with tons of guns that dont fit the lore :I

[mellow oyster]

I don't care about the lore lol

I just want a orgm type gun mod for b41

Heck i don't even know the lore lol

[hollow shadow]

one is being worked on since b41 first released, its gonna be much more polished and lore friendlwy

[mellow oyster]

All i know is ohnoes knox virus and its somewhere in kentucky and their tryna keep it there.

[hollow shadow]

with this i mean, finding russian military guns in muldrough lol

[mellow oyster]

True

But i mean who doesnt want an akm?

[hollow shadow]

akm is still a bit lore friendlwy, since its a very common gun

but im not an expert myself and dont live there soo

[willow estuary]

Mosins and SKSs are very common guns in north america FYI.
Surplus imports and all.

[mellow oyster]

I dont mind finding russian guns in kentucky.

True

Sks is too nice a gun for us americans to not go O=O

[hollow shadow]

ah yes, SKS is one of my favorites

[mellow oyster]

We prolly heard how it sounds and went O-o

Is there a beta orgm b41 mod?

[hollow shadow]

I hope the icons for the new gun mod will fit the vanilla style this time

[hollow shadow]

yes but its not puplic

probably better that way

[mellow oyster]

Is it still downloadable somewhere, had to do digging for the beta b41 hydro.

[hollow shadow]

idk 😉

[mellow oyster]

Lol, the way you say that makes me feel like you a dev and you posted the beta somewhere

[hollow shadow]

some people got a test version, excluding me

[mellow oyster]

Awwww

Im gonna tie one of em up and hold my 2$ flashlight in their face, and then imma interrogate them. Works every time.

I'll let you know if i find the beta somewhere tho dj

Ug couldnt find one.

Im just gonna wait till it comes out.

[autumn garnet]

I'm literally just gonna walk up behind a zombie and use that.
Maybe make a tv show or something about it idk

[late hound]

@autumn garnet How large is the sound radius?

[hollow shadow]

69 tiles

[autumn garnet]

I tested with 250 ^^'

[late hound]

Nice

[autumn garnet]

I don't know if it's too much or not enough

[late hound]

250 is as loud as the loudest vanilla gun - the sawed-off shotgun

[autumn garnet]

Exactly, I took this as an example

[late hound]

house alarms and sirens are 600, helicopter is 500 but moves (these are the loudest sounds in the game)

but cool!

[mellow oyster]

Idk if that realistic, being compressed air prolly isnt as loud as a sawn off, still better than my car tho lol

[late hound]

there needs to be more noisemakers in the game

[mellow oyster]

There does.

Especially since my stupid character cant seem to figure out how to throw the alarm clocks

[autumn garnet]

Thanks for the information, I'll do some research to make sure the sound is as accurate as possible

[solar mulch]

britas gun mod is not low quality and yes their guns work properly, it wouldn't be so high rated it if it was shit 🙂 through the biggest flaw with is that it's not lore friendly for those that care about that and the guns are def stronger than vanilla, also lack visible muzzle flash as of now all that aside. britas is one of the nicest gun mods with custom models and sounds that are available rn.

[wicked crane]

Allocate more ram to the game will help slightly

[mellow oyster]

How?

[mellow oyster]

I can't even attach a dot scope to my glock. Nor can i pre load mags and put them in.
And the reload animation freezes earth.

[frail brook]

@hollow shadow American civilians buy as many AK's as the Russian military and police combined - "DailyNews".

[hollow shadow]

thought so

maybe not that much but ye

[wicked crane]

https://steamcommunity.com/app/108600/discussions/0/1849197902661943772/

might work, might not. Idk. people tell me this or that, yet the game does infact show increased memory usage in task manager for sure.

[frail brook]

I mean US has some 400 million guns in circulation. let's say only 1 percent belongs to AK family.. (lot's trophy guns from Vietnam/First gulf war ... and I think I underestimate it ...

[fallow bridge]

Y’all sure this is a modding convo?

[hollow shadow]

yes

[hollow shadow]

we talkin about how likely it is to find AKs in muldrough

[fallow bridge]

Ah ok

I don wan a ak In pz

I have wanted rolled up sleeves for a very long time, i cant wait lol, also, can you eventually add a 2/3 rolled option?

[hollow shadow]

🤌
@craggy furnace can you make T-shirt’s be worn over long sleeves?

[craggy furnace]

@hollow shadow @plucky nova possible for both

[hollow shadow]

ATM you can only wear formal shirts

Over longsleeves

[plucky nova]

nice!

[craggy furnace]

other things just have my attention now

[fallow bridge]

I love how they still look vanilla, I’m eager to see these mods get released

[craggy furnace]

[craggy furnace]

i have no eta's

but probably once i complete this, add the CVC helmet, redo my cavalry hat, ill think about it

[wicked crane]

@hollow shadow just need to change the body slot the T-shirt take up, they're fighting for the same slot those particular styles

[fallow bridge]

Doesn’t the lumberjack shirt and the button up one take up the same slot? Wouldn’t that make it so the T-shirt would replace the lumberjack? If that’s the case than it wouldn’t work out very well right?

[wicked crane]

The shirts that are fighting for the same slot need to have new slots defined for them. Or split into existing categories that won't conflict with the same layer.

IE. How the Hawiann shirt is in another category compared to the Plain T-Shirts.

#old_techsupport message

[fallow bridge]

Mhm

I just worry that I can’t wear a tshirt with a lumberjack shirt if thats how it’ll be done

[wicked crane]

...............................................................................

Goodnight Vunder

[wicked crane]

it'll use 2 separate body slots different categories, it won't matter :stressed:

Why would you fix the issue for Tshirts and Long Sleeves and then CREATE the same issue for other shirts???

BodyLocation = ShortSleeveShirt, etc etc etc etc

If someone compiles me a list of the shirts they think are "supposed" to be layered- I will attempt to fix them.

[fallow bridge]

alright i get it now

was just a lil confused 😅

[wicked crane]

@fallow bridge My apologizes if this came off as rude\

[sour island]

is it possible to refer to a n array's associations?

I've done it in other languages- but I can't find documentation on lua being able to

for example:
local array = {[a] = "1"}
array["1"] -> a

even if I have to do a for loop is there a way to get [a] to be returned?

I think I got it- for key,value in pairs(array) do

ah

[turbid gale]

wasn't there before I DMCAed it

and he has no reason to reupload it, I'll still go through

because like. I have literally no remorse

[sour island]

"I have not met. In this mod, I fixed some bugs."

I'd be curious lol

[turbid gale]

like... what

there's no bugs I know of that are glaring without an easy fix

[sour island]

download and check- best case you clean up some bugs lol

[turbid gale]

I don't think it's worth scrounging through every file looking through what he changed

he didn't even change the mod name

it says he's from tokyo but he speaks russian so...

[late hound]

he even reused the profile pic too hah

he editied it like. a bit

is it a good idea to rip gran turismo 2 models to use them for car mods ?

[sour island]

from like PS1?

yes

i think the graphics styling would fit

can't hurt to try lol

[charred ridge]

i don't even have pz lmao imma do it anyway

[wicked crane]

what a chad

[charred ridge]

wtf should i do with you now (succesfully extracted from gt2 to something usable)

[left plank]

@shrewd grove get over heeeeee

[charred ridge]

n24zn that's what they called their model name

so that's a 240z most likely

[shrewd grove]

what

what am i needed for

[left plank]

car

[shrewd grove]

well, from looking at it

its basically unusable ingame without cutting and additions

the wheel wells need to be hollowed, the lights need to be defined since they are indentations

then it needs a load of texturing work

[charred ridge]

i'm gonna try and see if i can get the textures as well but they say it's basically fuck impossible

[shrewd grove]

still need to cut out those wheel wells

regardless

[charred ridge]

i know

it's not that big of a deal tho i think

[shrewd grove]

definitely need to seal that up aswell

hollow cars will break shit

[charred ridge]

how so

[shrewd grove]

you will see straight through the hollow parts

[charred ridge]

that should do it

[sour island]

LMSConditions.MoodleTable = { [MoodleType.Panic] = {level = 0, filters = {LMSConditions.Stammer_Filter,LMSConditions.Swear_Filter} } }

[charred ridge]

gabagool

[wicked crane]

"Hotter than my Mama's macaroni with some gabagool"

[sour island]

working on a dynamic dialogue system

each moodlet(or event) has a phrase list and associated filter(s)

the stammering is meant for cold

[sour island]

so this is an example of out of ammo phrases + cold

[proven turret]

It will be awesome if with your creativity, type a LOT of phrases, even if they look a bit similar, just changing a grammar here and there, but to add flavor you know?

Like in that example: "Gun's-s out-t of ammo!"
one or more flavor like: "Gun's o-out of ammo! Brrrrr"

[sour island]

that's what the filtering would ideally do

[proven turret]

Ahh

I see.

[sour island]

there's RNG in the stammering filter

[proven turret]

Hm but the list of possible phrases is the same, right?

[sour island]

higher level moodles are also taken into account

yeah, the default phrases are static

[proven turret]

For example that list of the Ammo, from the pic

if you could like double the different possible phrases would be great

I don't have a lot of imagination

but thats what I mean, even if the phrases are the same, you could add more, with a lil tiny differences

🙂 if you get what im trying to say. ^_^

[sour island]

I do, but the filters would apply minor changes

[fallow bridge]

does anybody know how to change the firearm on backpack placement for female models? with Firearms B41 no longer changing the locations itself i need to do it myself to get rid of the horrid clipping female models have with bags and basically ANYTHING on them

[latent orchid]

im confused...did someone try to pass off the APC mod as their own?

[fallow bridge]

yeah

@latent orchid they did a garbage job at it... didn't even change the file name so it still had the OG authors name in it xD

[wicked crane]

ye dmca is already being processed

[graceful salmon]

Morning all, is there a MOD for a Bicycle/BMX/Mountain Bike and Ebike?

[fallow bridge]

no

and sadly it's not really possible atm

as there is no character inside of vehicles

but once the vehicle rework comes out a mod will 100% be possible

[graceful salmon]

That's cool to know cheers.

[fallow bridge]

mhm

[wicked crane]

#mapping message

[fallow bridge]

oh yeah i forgot hurley was making a bike model

[charred ridge]

hello rust

the roof texture is drawn off the hood texture

that's gonna be weird

or if i can figure out how uv mapping works

[wicked crane]

Show 2d view?

[charred ridge]

this ?

i'm sure that's not how it's done that the rust has to be its own layer

but i still have that on the gimp software so i can just have the rust

[wicked crane]

you could just leave the rust layer a blank png i guess

and leave the rust "baked" into the uv

to save yourself time

[charred ridge]

but that means it stays rusty ?

[wicked crane]

yeah :/

You'll have to remove rust from that uv

[charred ridge]

then i'm not gonna cut that corner

[wicked crane]

just paint over the rust and make your own rust layer.

and iirc wheels are separated but I'm not a car guy

[charred ridge]

shouldn't that work ?

[wicked crane]

yep

[wicked crane]

You have this w.o rust

idk why i thought it had rust from before

So looks like you figured it out now?

[charred ridge]

maybe

maybe not

[wicked crane]

just remove rust from this

[charred ridge]

i really don't know

[wicked crane]

this is correct

[charred ridge]

that would be the normal texture

from the game

lucky me all the cars have two textures for lights on and off

[wicked crane]

This is the rip?

[charred ridge]

yes

[wicked crane]

God matches the art style so well lel

[charred ridge]

i have to check how they do the different paint colors

[wicked crane]

texture paint poly face iirc

[charred ridge]

the converting thing seems to go through all textures for colors but i can't find it

oh nvm it does have all the colors i just thought it were for LODs

[graceful salmon]

Cheers for that, that looks sick,

[craggy furnace]

fuck me

i cant display watches or jewelry with these rolled up sleeves

[charred ridge]

peak shittyfying

guess i figured out UV mapping

[cold bloom]

Noice. I hope it won't clash too much with the style of the vanilla vehicles.

[tranquil field]

I want to make a mod where the player can cover themselves in objects like paint and bleach to mask their scent.

[fallow bridge]

there is no scent in the game so it would be kinda... pointless?

but sure that could be cool

[tranquil field]

I mean it'll be called 'scent' but it'll just make zombies not agro on you.

So in reality it'll just impact their sight.

But you'll just say it's their smell

[fallow bridge]

ah ok

[drifting ore]

What zombies do have smell

[tame mulch]

There is a proposal to create a tool for creating modpacks like in minecraft. But for this need to copy the materials of other mods into modpack so that everything works well and can delete unnecessary things to have a more interesting gaming experience. Here copyright issue. how best to solve it?
add links to mods?

Also make that you can't turn on other mods when turn on modpacks, so if player want play with your mod without modpack he need download it from your steam page (as idea)

this makes it possible to create interesting bundles of mods, customize them. Give life to old mods.

P.s. need you opinion, I think I can create that tool

[fallow bridge]

No they don’t

The “smell” mechanic doesn’t actually exist

The setting is completely useless

[analog sandal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xeG3fzv7S4
a friendly reminder that this exists

[topaz pendant]

wait hold up, is sitting on a chair/sofa and sleeping animation in the game >.>

[analog sandal]

not yet I used peach 's authentic animations mod for that

just to add some flair to the trailer

bc i know most people are visual creatures rather than aural, that's why there hasn't been an uproar regarding pz audio properly yet

[fallow bridge]

this on steam?

like is it on the workshop

[analog sandal]

no it isn't unfortunately

[fallow bridge]

fuckkk i wanted to try it

[analog sandal]

I can't agree to the steam workshop terms of service so it's not on there

it is freely available though

through the discord server

[fallow bridge]

whats wrong with the workshop TOS?

and i personally don't wanna manually install... i hate doing that

[analog sandal]

you sign rights to your work to stem and the devs when you upload to the workshop

well this would require a manual install even if it was on the workshop

as it modified the core files

[fallow bridge]

huh

but i mean i personally don't see anything wrong with that, i'd be honored if the devs even blinked in eye at a mod of mine (which there are none)

but i can get why someone wouldn't like the ToS i guess

[analog sandal]

I use my recordings for paid commissions too so can't do that, plus the devs already publicly said they have this covered

[fallow bridge]

ahhh

ok i 100% get it now

the sounds in the video seem a little to loud though, is that just in the video or is that normal?

well most of the sounds seem off tbh

a shotgun firing is quieter than the shells loading is a little iffy

[analog sandal]

I can't do anything regarding the levels, that's vanilla limitation

[fallow bridge]

i'm a nitpicker i apologize

[analog sandal]

like, I can only replace the assets, not the mix, since that's something that the devs set up

[fallow bridge]

hell i'm the reason Nurver is working on fixing the female weapon on bag clipping , and yeah i getcha

[analog sandal]

tbh the issues you raise are one of the reasons I'm not updating that project anymore - no reason to work on something that can't ever overcome the issues the devs left in

it replaces all the sounds in the game, so it's complete, but it can't ever sound the way I'd like it to

for situations where I actually have control of the mix, check out the other designs I have on my channel

[fallow bridge]

it's still really cool too see that though

[analog sandal]

I wish there wad a way to fix all eBay

that

lol auto correct

[sour island]

Finally got stuttering to loop a few times based on intensity

Also added swearing- the "Shit" in front is added dynamically

[fallow bridge]

damn man nobody stutters that much xD

[sour island]

I have to tweak it a bit

[fallow bridge]

i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ii-i-i-i-i-i-i Nn-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-eed t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-to r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-reload xD

[sour island]

I think I figured out how ot prevent the same filter passing multiple times- I'd have to check

[fallow bridge]

it's cool

[sour island]

atm both cold and panic apply stammering

[fallow bridge]

i like the idea of our character speaking

just nobody would stutter like that

unless they are like freezing to death

OR they have a naturally really bad stutter

[sour island]

ayy, it does prevent the same one applying again

[fallow bridge]

which i infact used to have a bad stutter

[sour island]

yeah atm it works off moodle level = intensity

[fallow bridge]

huh

[sour island]

but I have to figure out a way to add a more controlled approach

Moodles usually range 1 - 4

[fallow bridge]

it looks really good though man

[sour island]

atm it's working off that 1-4

ty ty

[fallow bridge]

at most max panic would be I-i-i'm out of a-ammo

[hollow shadow]

atm it's working off that 1-4
@sour island hmm, I don’t think everyone would stutter if theiy are panicked? Tbh I’d prefer if they’d scream or swear or shout idk

Just my opinion tho

[sour island]

the stammering will be tweaked down- just had to make sure it works lol

screaming / swear interlacing is in the works

[fallow bridge]

next we just need a mod that fixes female weapon on bag clipping 😛

[fallow bridge]

oh boy

[scenic pivot]

Great work, except for some sounds like gunshots, hit sounds, injury sounds , and hammer sounds. The ambience like rain, cars etc is excellent.

I tend to shy away from any mods that are vast overhauls in any game, as I find they focus on too many things. That is different if the mod is segmented for combat sounds, ambience, etc.

In my gameplay the main audio that becomes very annoying is flies, digging/furrowing, unloading revolvers, and maybe the lack of my character making noise.

[fallow bridge]

can't forget MSR gunshots

[scenic pivot]

I've not shot the MSR yet, Ill have to listen to it

[fallow bridge]

i seriously don't know why and how they let those gunshots in and said "this is a good gunshot"

[analog sandal]

thx, as I said, some things can't be changed, for example there's only one melee sound for all blunt weapons

[scenic pivot]

Yep, your mod is great so far, I just hope I have the ability to choose parts of it, for example ambience.

[analog sandal]

you can yeah

though it's limited by the separation used by the devs

but yeah most of the ambient sounds is detachable of youre in just for that

there's no "so far". that thing is done and done, I've not updated it in 2 months

[sour island]

hungry and scared 🤔

[hollow shadow]

Lmao

[somber patio]

lol

[round zenith]

lol

[fallow bridge]

don't let me ever have power

[wicked crane]

I see you were able to spawn them

[hollow shadow]

I bet he spammed the spawn key under the escape button and spawned a bunch of raiders xd

[fallow bridge]

No they’re normal

I died and just wanted to see what would happen

[hollow shadow]

Lel one time i did that with serious survivors on, pz turned into a last of us remastered factions battle, it was kinda fun

[fallow bridge]

Ugh I hate how superb survivors fucks the zombie sounds

[hollow shadow]

Until one of the raiders spawned with the salvaged sniper rifle, i died then

I rly want factions battle for tlou2 ik the story is shit but the gameplay is good

[charred ridge]

in what direction should the car be facing in blender before exporting

and in what format should i export it for b41

[frail brook]

fbx

I think, it should be in the centre and shoud face to Y axis

[charred ridge]

ok so that should work

[frail brook]

apply location/rotation /scale and it should work

but import vanilla car to scale it correctly
