Your channel is one of the best channels on PZ. I literally watched all your videos, but _this_ and rare VHS ones literally sent me to oblivion. I play this game since 2017 and i thought i knew everything about it already, but it turns out i didn't. Such a shame that you have so little amount of followers and views, but i hope you will continue to do your vids because they are amazing.
Thank you so much bro, your anims are super dope. It will help me sooooo much. Can't wait for the part 2! Maybe you can show us how to insert items or do some actual animation?
Fun little fact, instead of dragging your mouse over the 3 scale transforms, you can press (S)cale with the model and armature selected, and just type 100. Nothing big but it's faster
I don't know any other videos that could help out, other than other general blender tutorials. This video's outdated since I have found better ways to setup characters and the environment. I'm planning on making an updated tutorial, but those new ways aren't perfect, so once they are perfect or good enough, I'll make that tutorial.
Hi, would you be able to leave the blender project in the description with the rig fitted correctly to the model? I followed the tutorial but I think I did something wrong when making the movements work, but putting on clothes and so on was easy. If you can, it will help me a lot, thank you for the content! sorry for the bad english haha
Every time I try to change the character model, the creation screen goes black. What am I doing wrong? The textures are in the folder. I export hairstyles and other items using the same method, and everything works. Please help me with this, any ideas? Maybe I'm applying the changes incorrectly?
@@user-HermanDankovsky This tutorial is just for animation purposes, not anything in-game related. If you need it to work in-game, try asking people on the official PZ discord. If I misunderstood or you have any other questions feel free to ask.
@@sqzpz I was just looking to see if anyone could answer my question, but in the end, I found a solution. It's a shame there are few guides on modding this game; it would be great if there were more. )
Yeah its still there, the video actually has everything you need just some parts confuse you a bit but in a day of 2 of trail and error you'll figure it out
How do you even get the character model in the game. Used this video to make something pretty custom and works fully in blender but I'm lost on how to upload the character as a mod.
Shoes are just textures, just like the long sleeve shirt, so just take the shoes texture and paste it onto the character texture. In part 2 I'll go over what clothing is texture only and other things.
@@sqzpz Hey I want to make animations for my future RP server but I need fully charachter models I don't know how to change the image colors (like the long sleeve) or just like melikefoxes said adding boots and stuff, guns, weapons etc. can you go over that in the next part. Btw huge thanks for making a very helpful video like this
@@Yeyith09 To change the color of the texture on the top left it's Colors > Colorize. As for the other stuff mentioned I'll make sure to talk about them, thank you
@@calamardoguapo444 This (outdated) tutorial is just meant to set up a character for animations, not for mods. You can try asking for help at the Project Zomboid discord server on how to set up animation mods.
Do you just not see the texture you applied or do you get some sort of error? Either way I recommend either looking for other videos or browse forums (Cause they'd explain it better than I could) for issues you may come across. My vid's outdated, but I'll still try to help as much as I can.
Don't be ashamed concidering your selfe a Belnder beginner.. Me using it for more than 10y also feel lost sometimes. I think one can never learn everything about the whole 3d pipeline.
There is a folder titled "Beards", which is at models_X > Skinned > Beards. The files are .x, not .fbx, so you'll have to get a .x importer add-on for Blender. In part 2 I'll explain how to add this importer and use it.
@@americanhuman1848 Try this: at the window where you apply the texture on the right, scroll down till you see "Viewport Display", expand it, then expand "Settings" and make sure "Blend Mode" and "Shadow Mode" are both Opaque.
You know… I want to do this for some Joke models for VRChat now. The only pain would be the mouth movement animations the game requires.
You could maybe, make face texture for a few volumes to simulate talking. I would love to see PZ in VRChat lol
Currently doing research on how to make vrchat avatars, nice to see somebody else thought of it
The mouth movement isn’t a requirement

Man this is great, it's going to help me a lot at some point, thanks
I've seen you before!

I hope this video creates way more project zomboid animations in the style of the game!
Thanks bro, that was needed

i love you so much ive been looking forever
Thank you so much for this
That’s awesome

So cool
thank you sir
thanks for the video, but how do I change the color of the hair model I chose?
Grab the hair textures from the in-game files
@@MudskipperLuciaMod thanks you, and how to add bristles?
@kurb0105 is bristles a hair mod? I don't know how to add modded clothing/hair, you'd probably have to ask the community
You can change the color in GIMP. Open the white hair texture, then on the top left its Colors > Colorize.
@@sqzpz Thank you! I'm waiting for part 2
14:33 Bro looks like Kingpin
Do you know of a guide to make custom animations ? Or are you planning on making a video maybe ? This was a very good guide

Yay!!!
Could you please make a download link for the blender file with the rigged character? It would mean a lot.
15:02 how do i open the window with this option? - dumb question. the menu shows up after you export it
I try to put model into project zomboid, but it doesn't load, what's causing it?
Are background models also available on the discord? I could never tell if they were 3d or just cleverly made 2d.
The model is not available now, there is no modeling section.
check the server compass

the model i got had its rigs all messed up for some reason.
I joined their discord but I do not have any modeling channel
for some reason it wont let me texture it

Is this program free to use or does it require a subscription?
Both Blender and GIMP are free
Yippe
Are you able to upload the model in question? i'm laeze..
I cant get the bone structure right AT ALL
If you know any fixs
Tem que ser manual
couldnt make teeth :(
Was the discord server shut down? I can't find it, any other place to get the models?
Don't be ashamed concidering your selfe a Belnder beginner.. Me using it for more than 10y also feel lost sometimes. I think one can never learn everything about the whole 3d pipeline.
delete the faces on the back of the teeth to save a few bytes or memory and 0.001 second of rendering 😉
facial hair?
