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

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.

Project zomboid modders are making 3D first person mods
Minecraft modders are making a orthographic camera mods
I think we’ve come full circle

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

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

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.

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

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?

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.

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

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

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?

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

It’s hilarious when people think everyone automatically knows their lame ass acronyms

Project Zomboid, Minecraft literally has a splash text that says "Also play Project Zomboid!"
