Fixing fake roofs ? [B41] | Project Zomboid | Page 1

Hello everyone,

So, like the title says help me and my friends to fix the fake roof from our base.

Some context:

Me and my friends we decided to base up at the MCCoy Logging Company at one of the big warehouses. After clearing them up, we decided to expand the base and make one superior level for our personal stuff (like gear, clothes, weapons etc) and keep the ground floor for cooking and fixing cars, leveling up etc.

The problem is that after we start expanding, we noticed that the roof although solid, is fake, because if you are on an upper level, it literally rains on you and you have freezing temperatures.

And idea how you can fix this issue ? (I tried placing floor panels on top of the rooftop but nothing)

Thank you.

Do you have any mods enabled?

#

Yes

#

But I already tried ruining on a world without mods and is the same thing

Any news ?

#

I've not had a chance to look at it yet I'm afraid, I will take a look asap

Ok so it's definitely a bug but it is fixed in the unstable version so it's not something I would report as a bug. As for ways to fix it, it's probably something you would need a mod for to be able to destroy the roof and replace it with a tile that blocks the rain, I don't know of any mod like that though. So I think you might just be out of luck with this one.

Will this work on mp ? As well ?

#

It should do but if the game thinks that particular area is outside it will still try to render the rain

#

Hmm

#

Okay

#

I will come with an update in about 1 week as I play with my mates and this week I am doing night shift

#

Can you leave this thread open ?

#

Yeah it'll stay open, although there's not much that can be done from a vanilla standpoint.

#

I tried looking up for mods but I couldn't find anything.

young zinc May 7, 2026, 12:17 PM

#

okay

#

sit rep

#

I tired it only in single player so far and it works 50%

#

meaning that it's no longer raining in the building

#

however there are still freezing temperatures

#

Okay I have fixed this issue

#

I had to replace all the roofing on one side of the building

#

To be "sealed" everywhere
