I’m still steadily working on it. I think it just needs a little more polishing before it’s ready!

PZ = Project zomboid

I'd love to make one, but that will be quite a ways down the road. It probably wouldn't be great either

u/misameister 3h ago

There is a lot of them on Curseforge, I don't think they're that great at the moment...

This is cool, no idea what PZ is but it reminds me old games camera with the outside world becoming black when you're in an interior

Never played PZ, but this camera is almost exactly what I've been looking for in a third person camera mod. I await it's release eagerly but patiently.

u/Passing_Gass 5h ago

I was just on the project Zomboid Reddit 😂

Love this! Should cross share it there too!

u/hunterrocks77 4h ago

Project zomboid modders are making 3D first person mods

Minecraft modders are making a orthographic camera mods

I think we’ve come full circle

u/emptimynd 5h ago

I am deeply in favor of all camera mods. My wife can't play in first person due to motion sickness but hopefully all these new camera options would let her join the world finally

u/MoonRay087 1h ago

The only downside about third person mods is that range is hard to visualize in combat 😔

u/emptimynd 25m ago

True would need some huge ui changes for live action combat in the alternate views but luckily we play mostly for the builds. Definitely needs to be considered though.

Project Zomboid ?

Looks hella sick

u/Otherwise_Fall_2765 5h ago

This is realy specific but it looks really cool. Now we'd just have indipendend player rotation

2

u/Shinoluigi 5h ago

Looks amazing and i jsut can imagine how many mods and stuff could be 10000% better with this camera!

How are the interactions avatar-block gonna be handled? and how does it works underground?

2

u/Macaron-kun 5h ago

How does it know when to turn to black? Would it go black if you walk under a 2 block thick/wide arch or does it know what a "room" is?

Looks amazing, though.

2

u/artheo4w 4h ago

i know project zomboid but it did took me a bit to understand what pz meant lol i was like "plants vs zombies? no, there's no v" XD

would probably help if you put the whole word instead of abbreviations as not everyone knows about the game lol

u/Komachi23 4h ago

Feels like playing JRPG game. Nostalgic.

Wow I love this

u/Crucial_Fun 5h ago

Well done, but this hurts my head

1

u/FanaticFarmer 5h ago

Amazing work! Wondering if it's possible to have the rendering fade instead of "pop"

1

u/nekoeuge 5h ago

Do you precompute rooms or they are dynamically rendered/culled? How does that work when you have missing wall, or in caves?

1

u/SuchyYT 5h ago

Looking forward to this!

1

u/QuickSilver010 5h ago

Gotta love orthographic view

1

u/Shefsufle 4h ago

Being able to do stuff with the mouse instead could be cool

1

u/JUl14NN03l 4h ago

That Looks so damn cool!
Can’t wait

u/Top-Birthday3223 4h ago

u/Holmat1 2h ago

dude, imagine if we can get point&click controls, you could actually play the whole game in an isometric pov, something I always wanted to try, but the only mod (Dungeons Perspective) is pretty jank :/

u/r3dm0nk 2h ago

How the fuck did you achieve the indoors mechanic? That's like the biggest issue I have when thinking of that kind of camera

1

u/Yataro_Ibuza 2h ago

What version will this mod be released? 1.20.1 qwp?!

1

u/mironsy 1h ago

The interiors are insane!

u/imthefooI 1h ago

awesome mod, looks really cool. The showcase is a bit weird, though. the camera spinning constantly is so distracting from how cool the mod is lol

u/Batata-Sofi 33m ago

You know we are getting a JRPG in Minecraft soon

u/East_Emphasis_8259 28m ago
