    3:10 Quick tip here: Your currently equipped weapon DOES show up with the condition bar mod - in the upper left of the screen, where you see what item or weapon you're holding! It has the background colour shift to indicate approximately how close to breaking it has as well, meaning you don't HAVE to have the item equipped to your hotbar to see its durability in combat.

    Now I sort of want to see a list of mods that make your life more difficult, like Fire Explodes Gas Pumps or one that attracts zombies to piles of corpses. Things that don't make the moment-to-moment gameplay harder, but add one more small way that things can go wrong and start spiralling out of control.

    • @Jaxos050

      Don't Feed The Zombies is such a fun idea but that mod absolutely SHITS all over performance with how its coded. You basically end up having the game run a check every tick for as many bodies as you have on if it attracts a zombie or not.

      That's my jam. I can give a list right now.
      Expanded Helicopter events - Supply drops can make things easier in some ways though, but I think they can maybe be disabled?
      Speed Modify Do Affect - clothing can slow you down.
      Depression Makes You Sleepy
      Cryogenic Winter Horrific Summer
      Excrementum - Poop is fun, but maybe a bit harder.
      Prepare For Winter - a bit more difficult winter mechanics (ex. no farming)
      The Scent of Blood - not sure which version/variant of this is best.
      Please Don't Feed The Zombies - zombies are attracted to corpses. Kind of feels a bit broken, but is configurable. Not really a fan either.
      ZombieAttackVariety - Makes zombie attack action faster (I think?) and hence more dangerous.
      CDDA Zombies - It at least seems _harder._ some zombies can't be pushed down, some push _you_ down, some crawl, some sprint, some raise dead, some make noise and call more zombies. More-or-less works with Random Zombies so that you can have sprinting fatties or sprinting wrestlers or such. I'm referring to the mod by HW_Lover, but DETOX's might be better; it's at least _harder._ I think it is configurable though so it can maybe be made to be more like the HW_lover version.
      Hive Mind - if one zombie sees you, they all see you. not really a fan, but it does make it harder.
      Backpack Durability - not a fan, but obviously harder.
      Siphoning Needs Hoses - hardly changes much, but technically a bit harder.
      Schizophrenia Trait Mod
      Susceptible Trait - Airborne Infection
      Zombie Climbs Wall - tall fences
      Vaulting Zombies - short fences
      Health Plus - adds a laundry list of health headaches to deal with
      Water Goes Bad
      Inventory Tetris - Debatably not any harder, but kind of. Takes more time to loot, and can't hold as much of various items.
      Immersive Overlays - debatably not any harder, but can sometimese make the screen a bit darker or harder to see the edges.
      Slower Sprinters \ Joggers and Runners - obviously not harder per se, but could be used to make an overall harder -but still playable- experience by having [more] sprinters, but they're slower.

    there is a mod name "I don't need a lighter" which you can light a cigarette from a car-lighter, stove, and actual fire

    A few vanilla / QoL mods I would also suggest are:
    Moodle Quarters - makes it easier to tell the severity of a moodle with a quick glance
    Visible Holster - makes it so that holsters are visible on your character
    Nepenthe's Colored Battery Status - allows you to easily tell how charged a car's battery is while driving
    Nepenthe's Colored Engine Status -allows you to easily tell what the condition of a car's engine is while driving\
    Replace Bandage - self explanatory
    Generator Time Remaining - also self explanatory
    Hope this short list helps!

    I dislike faster hood opening, simply because while the Current Animation doesn't make sense for what you are doing. The Time it takes does make sense.
    Basically the "Hood Opening" Is you inspecting the full vehicle to learn the condition of all of the parts. Including Battery Charge and Fuel Levels among other things.
    It's also why you have to do the "Hood Opening" Animation even if the Hood is Already Open. It's because it's not the Hood Opening Animation. It's you Inspecting the Car to figure out what you have to Repair etc.
    Be Amazing if PZ made a Animation where you go around inspecting the Car during the "Hood Opening" Animation instead of the Current Animation.

    A nice little mod called (Moodle Quarters) makes it much easier to see what level of moodle you have.
    There's also a mod called (Take Any Amount) that I personally like so I can take specific amounts of ammo since I'm a fan of unboxing all of them and storing them away so I can get a quick read on my ammo count.
    Also a fan of (Visible Generator Range) for base building.
    Last mod isn't QoL per say, but I like a mod called (My So-Called Bag) it lets you turn three big backpacks into a duffle bag with the same stats. Fashion is king after all.
    Love your stuff btw.

      Yeah I wish it was the case for all items in the game though. Like "jacket, Leather", "bottle, empty", "gun, M14", "carrots in can, opened". Improved Sorting, doesn't have specific-enough categories, and in theory even with more narrow categories it will still have issues. For example "Box of Screws" and "screws" would still be far apart among items in that category despite the fact that they should really be right next to each other.
      Also sorting by category even with "Better Sorting" doesn't allow you to choose the way you want to organize the categories. While alphabetical doesn't either, it's really the only advantage that it would have over just renaming items, especially if items were renamed to _include_ their categories (like "clothing, jacket, leather").

    Hey Retanaru! I got 2 mods that I definetely want to recommend!
    1) Gun Stock Attack - Lets you whip and bash enemies with any firearms and even kill them this way too! Has sandbox options for a few things like endurance loss for gun stock attacks and etc (Compatible with all/most modded guns too for those wondering)!
    2) Under Cover of Darkness - Lets you hide from the zombie during nighttime/darkness and fogtime. Zombie vision is also lessened during those conditions. It also has sandbox options as well.
    Great video as always!

      @atomicryan4657 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      For 2, there's also Definitive zombies which covers more environmental effects. It should also be partially compatible with UCoD.
      Also for 1, Britas and the arsenal mod let you change grip with certain weapons so that you can melee with them as well. But it doesn't really cover everything, like pistols for example. Although the vanilla shove kinda fills that purpose?

    • @AtrociousAK47

      I liked number one but I stopped using it because the mod author is a dick, and kept deleting comments mentioning bugs on their other mod "extra reload movement" aka reload guns and mags while running, before disabling comments altogether. the bug was pressing r to reload would just spawn infinite loaded mags out of thin air instead of just pulling one from a bag, which is pretty game breaking if you ask me. I refuse to support petty assholes that cant handle any form of criticisim whatsoever.

    Aside from a few rebalance mods that tweak some iffy ratios for xp gain, damage to tools, fuel consumption rate etc some worthy mentions in my mod list are;
    Tidy Up Meister - When an action that switches equipment when performed, such as dismantle, is completed, the equipment is automatically restored to its original state.
    Vehicle Light Chime - Lets you know you have your lights on and the engine off by playing a sound
    Stack All - Merge selected mergeable item types to tidy up your inventory lists
    Moodle Quarters - Changes one additional quarter of the moodle background to a square for each moodle level
    Stop, Drop 'n Roll - If you catch yourself on fire, you can right-click anywhere and select 'Stop, Drop 'n Roll.' This will extinguish the flames
    Dylan's Sensible Zombie Loot (Tweaked) - Adds more varied loot to zombies
    ZuperCart - Adds shopping carts to the game
    Azakaela's Graffiti & Spray Paint - 2 mods to add ways to tag streets and buildings in game

    Smoker: a mod that makes it so a pack has more than one single cig, has multiple flavours of cigs, allows you to deconstruct and make cigs manually, and lets you pull the foil out of an empty pack.

    this one doesn't effect the in-game itself perse, but is still a huge QOL mod, Mod Organizer makes adjusting your mods a piece of cake, allows you to save presets like you can with your Character creation and sandbox settings, so you don't have to remove every single mod by hand when you wanna change things up a bit, example for me is i have a modlist centered around the Insurgent mod, but when i don't feel like playing a souped up Black Ops guy, all i gotta do is click on my standard preset, or maybe i feel like playing vanilla for a change, just click disable all mods and you're done!
    another one of my favorites that really helps out for my encumbrance since I'm always pushing max, is the Swap It mod, basically gives you two back slots in a sense, if you're holding a weapon that goes on your back normally, like a baseball bat, and you have a shotgun currently on you back that you need to use, it will swap the shotgun to your hands, and put the baseball bat on your back instead.
    Tidy Up Meister will replace any tool you use for an action back to its original location and re-equip whatever item you had in your hand prior to the action, this includes things like reading a magazine on a bookshelf, if you click on Read while its in the shelf, once you finish, it will automatically be placed back into the shelf, but more importantly it replaces the screwdriver back into your inventory after dismantling a TV, or your torch after scrapping a car.
    rebalanced prop moving is a in-game affecting mod that removes the need to use a hammer to pick up things like couches and beds to move them elsewhere, it also removes the chance for you to break them, so its really helpful when you are just starting out and you need to move a couch upstairs to make space for something else. no longer an "oops i somehow broke this military Cot that probably weighs 8 lbs but to move it i need a hammer for some reason"
    Has been read allows you to mark any books that you have, letting you know at a glance whether you have that book already or not, so you dont have to spend ages at enigma books trying to remember if you already grabbed that Volume 4 of mechanics.
    An Exhilaratingly Organized Literature Mod renames all books, magazines, and maps so that they all sit in their proper order by name and also lets you mark books in a different way, I'm personally more of a fan of the Has been read marking instead, but whichever tickles your Fancy i suppose
    Craft helper gives you a new right click option for items that have crafting recipes, but you dont remember what all they're used for, works with every mod I've tested so far, so no more wondering what the large battery is used for in Hydrocraft, or what the hell i need screws for
    Zombie loot adds some items to the spawn pool on zombies after you kill them, giving you a chance to find small useful items on their bodies after killing them, say you're about to starve to death and you need to deal with a bunch of zombies, after killing them, huh? what's this? he had a bag of chips on him! i can stave of starvation just a little longer. also adds things like empty bottles, small tools and supplies, hammers and glue every once in a while, its really balanced so it doesn't feel out of place at all, with the exception of a few mods altering it, the loot is generally stuff you could feasibly see someone having with them before they died
    These are the mods that i use with every preset i have, i have others too but they've been included in this video already

  • @locky9135
    @locky9135 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    for me, its gotta be the car mods. Even if you arent into cars, the in game selection is sorta boring so i would recommend filibuster rhymes pack which is a good all rounder, the 1993 lore car pack which adds a tonne of lore friendly cars that fit the area and the motorius zone pack and its police pack. While the motorius zone pack is more for the car guys out there, it does provide many nice cars to work towards and most of the cars arent to common. finally the ki5 vehicles are good (have armour options too) and so are the tuning atelier cars, along with the standardised vehicle armour mod i cant remember the name of. Finally if you play with these mods, give the expanded vehicle spawns mod a go, it makes rare cars spawn in appropriate places (rich neighborhoods, mechanics, imports at train yards etc) and overall makes the world feel a lil more lived in

    Standardized nimble/reloading/running etc all make it so you get a set amount of exp for performing an action. Starting at level 5 the game throws dice to see if that bullet you just put in the magazine actually gives experienced and nimble/running make it so you have to walk for a set amount of time/steps then your guaranteed to get the exp. The base mods exp multipliers but you can go into the pause menu>options>(mods) and adjust the exp multipliers back to 1x to make the exp given like vanilla just without the game deciding to make it a dice roll after level 5

      @CakeDayZ ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@MsHojat I agree its more balance than QoL, I just really wanted to share the mod around because I dislike the vanilla repair mechanics.
      Ideally, you would like to reward players for keeping their weapons well maintained, not punish them with less efficient repairs. In real life, a well maintained knife or any other tool can last years. This mod can let you theoretically infinitely repair your weapons, but only if you take proper care of them.
      In vanilla, the most efficient strategy to wait until an item is completely broken before repairing it because the % repaired is based on how much condition is missing. With this mod you can set it to % of maximum condition instead.
      Small repairs like glue or adhesive tape are normally garbage tier, because they destroy future any repair value. With this mod, they suddenly become usable.
      It also has highly customizable sandbox settings and critical repairs. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

    Something I found out about the AutoMechanic mod, it allows you to remove the doors and windows from the wrecks you find. I would sometimes come across a wrecked car with a good quality door/window but wouldnt be able to access them since the sides of the car are caved in. The AutoMechanic mod, when auto leveling, removes everything you have a tool for, so it removes things you dont have access to. Though it is a bit janky as you will see your character wander away from the car to take things off lol So just be aware of that.

      I might be wrong, but removing parts is doable even without mods, but you risk destroying the part. The upside is high exp gain when they break.

    I recommend that anybody hosting their own zomboid server to make sure to install the Mod Manager: Server mod. It allows you to select your entire library of mods or copy a single player save's mods onto a server and is absolutely essential for anyone playing with more than 20-30 mods from the workshop

    DO NOT USE THE SNOW IS WATER MOD.
    It's cool, and works, but it breaks a lot of mods.
    For some reason, it'll fuck your true music item interaction button, when they're placed on ground.
    And it does that for many other mods.
    If someone found a fix for it, i'm all ears, but i thought i'd warn people in case they encounter this issue, it took me days to find what was causing it.
    Hell, i've seen someone talking about a quick fix to the mod, but the author didn't seem to update the mod, so it's probably a bug to stay until someone feels like doing work on the mod again.

  • @StringsOfTheHarp
    @StringsOfTheHarp ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I really thought I suggested it before but I guess not.
    Sound Direction indicator. A mod that adds that circle of directional sound, for people with mono sound, people who have partial or full deafness in real life, or to let people not feel required to play with a deaf character if the game is muted. Sometimes I just want too listen to youtube or music while not directly impacting my gameplay, or maybe want to watch a video about project zomboid while playing the game. Suddenly there is no confusion to if that sound was in game or not.
    There is also an argument for the many people who might play on laptops on public transport for multi-hour long journeys. For multiplayer it can also make sure your voice call doesn't get you killed if people are yelling constantly.

    Not sure if its QoL but theres a mod called internal dialog(i think) where occasionally text appears above your characters depending on the situation. Its still in heavy development and its mostly for immersion purposes but it occasionally does help you out, with your character poiting out if a weapon like a bat is a container. Whether is multiplayer im not sure.

    • @MsHojat
      @MsHojat ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'd call that QoL yes, but I find it really annoying. The character exaggerates too much (namely when panicked, or maybe even stressed too), sometimes talks against context "ouch I'm hurt" can happen if you're just lifting heavy load or severely sick or such rather than only when you get a wound. Also it never really tells you anything your moodles don't already tell you.

    As always the game was made in a way where things are not indicated easily, and you have all these limitations so you are fighting against all odds to survive one day longer, your character doesn't have a stamina bar in vanilla game, in a way it's logical that in real life you do something and you don't know if you are going to get tired or not, And the whole idea is that you need to manage said invisible factors so you don't sink in death spirals that could happen. I think bleeding is the same, do you really know how much are you bleeding just by feeling, no, you need to check your own body, take a little time.

    The "common sense" mod adds a lot of things that are common sense, as the name says lol. Using a crowbar to pry open windows, doors, car doors, garage doors, and (if enabled in settings) the security doors that lead to armories and such.
    It also allows crafting sheets, opening cans with screwdrivers and knives, attaching flashlights to the belt, and crafting spears with brooms and mops.
    To anyone who read through that, ive been looking for a mod that actively updates the map as the player builds/destroys areas. I know one exists, i just need to find it lol. If you know what the name is, please let me know

      I really don't see why people use/care-about that mod so much. I don't think it's a _bad_ mod, but why/when do you ever fight zombies inside a building that you'll be spending many hours in? I've literally never had to use it, and even if I had a high up base I still don't see why I'd need to use it, because the zombies either wouldn't be able to get up to where I hang out (hence the smell isn't a problem), or the entire building would be blocked or fenced at ground level and not get in.
