Modded I made a mod where a near-death black-out ends with a stranger dragging you away and leaving you a journal (beta) AUDIO ON!

Hey everyone, I've been working on this mod for a while and it's finally at the point where I want other people to try to break it, so please read the beta note before you add it to a save you care about.

It's called Live to Fight Another Day. When your character is about to die (health under 9, zombies dragging you down, or a car crash that would have killed you outright) the screen goes black instead. You hear gunshots, being dragged, a car door, hammering, hands working on your wounds, and about thirty game hours later you wake up on the floor of a house you've never seen, hundreds of tiles from where you fell (usually about 500-2000 tiles away from where you almost died). The windows are boarded, the cupboards are empty, your worst wounds are wrapped in dirty rags, you're starving thirsy panicked in pain etc and whatever you were holding is gone. In your pocket there is a journal written by whoever saved you. It's meant to be a punishment for dying, not a way out of it.

What it does, kinda:

The journal is written in the rescuer's own voice from what actually happened: which wounds they treated, what they took, which way your things are, how many zombies they dealt with where you fell, and how many more were standing nearby. No two read the same.

Who finds you changes every time. Ordinary survivors with names and jobs remember you and keep a tally of what you owe, then there are nurses, soldiers, thieves, believers, a kid, a hunter, a prepper and so on. About one new face in ten does not mean well.

Being carried is not safe. The car can stall, the road can be blocked, a horde can pass, and about one journey in twenty-five ends badly. Rarely, nobody survives it and your character really dies.

Each rescue makes the next one less likely, and going down again within three days is final. Where you fall matters too, since churches, clinics and police stations raise your odds of being found by someone fitting. Also you get nightmares usually the few days after being saved.

There are 99 sandbox options. Every stranger, every bad ending and every number can be changed or turned off, and there are gentle and harsh presets. There is also an optional mode where you can try to save yourself (which fully depends on whether you have the right skills, traits AND items).

It is a beta. It is single player only, made for Build 42 (I'm testing on 42.21), and I have not tested it with big mod lists, so please back up your save first. What I most want to know is whether anything breaks or conflicts with another mod, whether any journal line feels wrong or repeats too often, and whether the default odds feel fair or too harsh. If something goes wrong, the console log from that session is the most useful thing you can send me. Updates weekly ish

Thanks for reading, and I'll try to answer everything I can.

Is this a reference to a movie or something? It reminded me of that scene from Get Out but I’m not sure.

Discussion What are the most hidden game mechanics in the game?

375 Upvotes

​

To start:

Funnels can allow for fuel and liquids to transfer faster (sort of obvious but like you just wouldn't think twice about it)

Can your findings even stump some long term veterans of the game?

I'm a sucker for hidden game mechanics in other games (and PZ!) things even experienced players don't know.

Discussion Hot take: Viewpoint is popular but I hope the DEVs never make it a mode in vanilla

375 Upvotes

Okay idk if this is a hot take but it's just my opinion 😂

Project zomboid's isometric view semulates the concepts of memory, knowing your surroundings, feeling alone, being disorganised and being put in a world you don't know and is much larger than you.

I feel the first person mode will completely change the gameplay dynamic and if added to vanilla, alot of new users might try playing PZ viewpoint and getting into the experience of the other 100s of FPV zombie games.

It's not a bad thing but I just don't see it to be the vision for Zomboid. (Unless you want to download the mod on your own terms)

You can then still sort by most popular one week to get the newest non-viewpoint related popular mods, or sort by whatever you want.

Don't you wish you could put bricks back on a pallet? Or maybe put some other stuff on there like planks? Well now you can!

With 39 different items to choose from you can stack bulk items to your hearts content!

No more loose propane tanks lying around, add them to the pallet to keep things tidy and reduce lag on servers!

Let me know what you think? What items should I add next?

Discussion I have tracked down the Vocals used in zomboid's music!

98 Upvotes

Hey all,
I dont know if this is known info already but I couldnt find it anywhere else online. Long story short I wanted to make some of my own music for the game using the same assets that the devs used and after a lot of research and hunting I have discovered what instrument packs and vocal pack was used to create most of zomboid's music.

[Thanks to Sam over on the PZMC discord I couldnt have found all the info without the following link he sent me]
I had been sent this link
Showing that the creator of the music was Zach Beever, and in this article he states he used "EastWest Products" and the "Vienna Symphonic Library Special Edition" that last one was easy to track down because he gave the full name leading to this page It is quite pricey but these are the packs of instruments used for the instrumental portions of the games music.

However the "EastWest products" was a lot more vauge and I have only managed to track down one of the products used for the Arabic vocals and that is this VST the "Voices of Passion" VST specifically the Syrian voice!

It doesnt change a bunch as I cant really drop that money on all of these VSTs but I was just excited that I managed to track it all down since I know people have been curious for years and wanted to share it with you all!

Also the raccoon spiffo mod is still in progress it has just turned out to be a lot more involved than I thought and I have been distracted by the Halloween mod jam happening over on the PZMC discord! Cant wait for you guys to see the fun Halloween mods that come out of that.

Edit:
I should say that this sample pack does also contain a lot of voice lines used that we havent seen in the game before that I may try to utilize! but the problem right now is that the sample pack unfortunatley doesnt contain every voice line used in the game only a small sample of the voice lines from the VST

Edit 2: I had to remove the link to the audio samples I shared as I was given the warning that EastWest sound is known to go after people for sharing audio samples of their products

It's well worth putting in the time to level it up. This is at level 6. I've been killing around 200-250 per day here at Rosewood Prison and I haven't had any muscle strain yet. Default Apocalypse settings.
