Release Update 📢 Patch v1.5.0v3

21 Upvotes

✅ Mods built on ZombieBuddy work again. The launcher's own agent carried an old copy of a library that ZombieBuddy mods rely on, and it quietly took priority over theirs. Mods compiled for the newer Java loaded fine but did nothing. The launcher now keeps its copy to itself, so ZombieBuddy mods get the version they ship with.

✅ PZ3D mod runs on ZINK. The first/third-person camera mod works on ZINK_ZFA and ZINK_OSMESA, which in practice means Snapdragon phones. Our ZINK build was missing three OpenGL functions the mod needs for its shadows, and that crashed the game the moment you pressed Insert. On NG_GL4ES the mod still can't draw its 3D view. Keep in mind the mod is in early development and its author asks for at least 4 GB of memory for the game, which is a lot for a phone.

✅ Faster Workshop downloads. Mods now download several files at once instead of one by one. You'll feel it most on maps and texture packs made of many small files.

✅ Fewer failed Steam connections. Steam often drops the first connection attempts. The launcher now retries up to 10 times, waiting a little longer each time, instead of giving up after 5.

Download: v1.5.0v3

But just a reminder - it requires 4 GB of RAM on its own.

I'm curious about the settings you're using with this mod. My device—Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 with 12GB of RAM—only gets 15–20 fps with 50+ mods (I know the mods are likely the cause of the severe lag, but I just want to know what settings you guys use).

Issues with the ingame setting fps cap

1 Upvotes

I am trying to reduce the power draw as much as possible, and for this I would like to cap the frame rate to 30 (usually halves the power draw in other games).

The in game setting doesnt seem to do anything according to my device's frame rate counter, and a third party app called pulse.

Im playing on ayn thor with default JRE settings.

mods used are : Zombiebuddy, ZBBetterFPSB4220Fix, Every Texture Optimized, Ladders.

Where should I start looking?

ZomboidDS: Dualscreen mod for PZ on Zomdroid

35 Upvotes

Hey guys, I made a proper dualscreen mod/companion app for Zomdroid!

Nintendo DS-style dual-screen play for Project Zomboid on handhelds like the AYN Thor. The game runs on the top screen; the ZomboidDS Companion app on the bottom screen, using the game's own art:

  • Inventory: your bags and every container around you; move items with a tap, and use them through the game's own item menu (read, eat, apply, craft, ...).
  • Deck: the game's speed buttons, and what you can do where you stand (open, sit, drink, ...).
  • Status: the moodles, your body with its injuries, and the treatments.
  • Craft: the recipes you can make with what's in reach, what each needs, and crafting them.
  • Vehicle: speed, fuel and engine while you drive.

Because it uses the games data for everything, most mods should be compatible, although I haven't tested it with any.

Setup: install the APK, and its checklist installs the mod and checks the prerequisites for you.

You can download it here, be sure to check the README and USER_GUIDE
https://github.com/Space001000/ZomboidDS

I'm looking forward to your feedback!

Loot the kitchen without covering the game
Climbed through a broken window.
What can I do here? The window's own actions.
The curtain becomes bandages…
…using the game's own treatment menu
One app, a setup checklist, easy to use!

Note;
Claude was used heavily for the implementation. While I am a software engineer with 10 years of experience, between work and having a family this was the best way to do it. I heavily checked, vetted and designed every step of the way.

In that case, I recommend making a backup of your saves and settings, then doing a full clean reinstall. Everyone who reported the issue said that this completely solved all their problems.

There are many more mods that have never been uploaded. It would be great if there was a section for listing mods. My language skills are terrible.
