6:27 As a Brazilian, I can confirm that this tape happened in real life, in addition to being a great indication of what happened at the Knox Event, it is also an easter egg about the case of UFOs :D
When you watch the birthday tapes you should get -50 unhappiness from it. Because I know if I watched them after the world has fallen apart I'd be pretty depressed.
I hope these videos reach numerous Project Zomboid enthusiasts. You have gathered interesting details I haven't heard elsewhere and present them with fitting visuals. Excited to see what you create next!
North Carolinian here, a couple of things: 1) Raleigh is pronounced RAL-ey 2) The Triangle (aka the Research Triangle) area they mentioned is a real place. It’s comprised of three cities, each of which is home to some of the best universities in the country. They are: Raleigh - State capital and home to NC state university, which specializes a lot in engineering. Durham - Home to Duke University, which has good medical and engineering schools Chapel Hill - Home to UNC Chapel Hill. Very good medical school and the first publicly funded university in the USA. There’s also Research Triangle Park, a municipality that basically doesn’t belong to any county and has a bunch of both government and nongovernmental laboratories, so the virus coming from a lab there makes a lot of sense.
That Tape 1 “Caring For Employees” and Tape 6 “Reverand Quigley” sure felt similar, both asking to isolate others and saving their unhinged darkness for the end of the video.
Maybe it was just a skin infection with some mental degradation I don't know whether or not he could have been part of a containment failure when experimenting or part of a test on the civilian population.
7:29 That sounds like a Heaven's gate reference. Fascinating real life cult that once existed, their website is still up. They came to a pretty tragic ending though.
"Fun" fact: the reason their website is still up is because two of the cult members were selected to not commit suicide with the rest of them and was given the mission to keep the website running until the commet returned again.
The “useless” home VHS tapes that don’t give skill points do a really good job at making me feel like shit for the places I loot sometimes. When you’re mindlessly breaking into houses to turn furniture into planks like it’s a Home Depot commercial, it becomes a lot more sad when you find a suicide victim in the bathroom with his kids 8th birthday VHS on him or on the TV stand. These otherwise unremarkable zombies had lives and favourite shows or recordings of notable events in their life and that gives zeds a lot of character without much effort. Also, why does the math tape give you long blunt EXP lol?
Honestly if ill find a vhs tape with someone's birthday after few weeks or months after the zombie apocalypse when TV and radio is down and you survive on the remaining gasoline... Well... I'd feel sad and nostalgic watching strangers celebrating someone's birthday, knowing that most likely every single person on the video is either dead or undead...
I just realised that VSH may contain the anwser to the origins of the knox county event. The 1990 outbreak was prabobly an sccusfulltest of the virus, and "asteroids" were just digused missiles with some kind of bio weapon. The first test was prabobly the Brazil bombing where they just tested if the new bio weapon actually works, the second test was preformed in Raleigh 1990, where the less hazardous version of the bio weapon was used, since the military were sccusfull in containg it.The thrid test was preformed in knox county which got out of hand and most likey coused the fall of human civilization.
One of the strangely truth tapes mentions a citizen in Louisville who saw some strange lights in the sky and assumed it was a UFO a relative who is in the air force, He told him that they did not appear to be flares despite the fact that the authorities reported that he was part of a military training with these
7:15 This is pretty much what some people from Louisville were saying on the paranormal show tapes. They said they saw something in the sky and a guy from the force said they didn't look like flares, Despite the fact that the authorities said that it was a military training with that
Excellent backstory making. I have owned and played this game for 9 years and much of this was new to me. The animations really made it immersive, thx 👍🏻
Well, it's wasn't exactly zombies, it said the disease ate the flesh, not the diseased eating fleash, so I assume it's like those brain eating parasites or leprosy Either way, still strange their was another strange super disease with little military involvement
8:34 That’s a Heaven’s Gate reference if I’ve ever seen one. Holy shit. They committed mass suicide in ‘97. Some willingly. Some forced. It’s insane to think about that. Also their website is still up.
Over 500 Hrs in this game I don't think I've ever watched more than 4 tapes, also you listed some TV tape for electrical skill when you described light footed.
Someome should make spiffo world as a custom map mod, would be interesting to see a theme park filled with zombies. As far as i remember only L4D2 did it.
You got a talent for this, is good stuff! Never played probably not going to its just not my game type but you betcha been bingeing your vids like bedtime stories ❤
Y'know, the asteroid could be added as another crazy theory of why the outbreak happened. I mean, in the end the cultists were right about the end of the world (in zomboid)
I think all the asteroid talk is a reference to dawn of the dead, as there's a TV segment of world leaders and high ranking officers talking about theorys of the dead rised
I've only found them in homes, so I'm not sure if you can find them elsewhere. The most common place for them to spawn during my runs was in those small combined homes in Louisville.

The "ET de Varginha"
I lived in Varginha in 2002
When you watch the birthday tapes you should get -50 unhappiness from it. Because I know if I watched them after the world has fallen apart I'd be pretty depressed.
Physics, stwaight physics.
I'd watch it for all of 2 seconds hear the birthday song and proceed to bash the TV in with a crowbar.
@anarchyburger2655 Yes you are right.
We prefer to let the player themselves be sad!
I will learn to mod and make a mod for that bc fuck it would be an immersive touch

Indeed, I just came across this channel. I have nearly 500 hrs into zomboid, some of the stuff I never had any idea...great work, keep it up!

After hearing the outbreak tape I get the feeling that our zombie outbreak isn't the first
It probably didn’t include zombies
Maybe it was just a skin infection with some mental degradation
I don't know whether or not he could have been part of a containment failure when experimenting or part of a test on the civilian population.
@@enderclasscraft6411 Yeah I got tunneled versioned and didn't think of that
Raleigh might've been the start of the Knox infection, considering the tape mentions coordinates. Perhaps they were testing the virus?
7:29 That sounds like a Heaven's gate reference.
Fascinating real life cult that once existed, their website is still up. They came to a pretty tragic ending though.
"Fun" fact: the reason their website is still up is because two of the cult members were selected to not commit suicide with the rest of them and was given the mission to keep the website running until the commet returned again.
I know, the website is still in the old 90s webdesign style. It's so bizarre.@@RipOffProductionsLLC

Also, why does the math tape give you long blunt EXP lol?
the "math" tape isn't about math, it's about the *other* head if you know what I mean
@@Nightmare77_Games oh no
Yeah, it involved a veryyy long baseball bat to explain how mass applies to speed and velocity. The math teacher gave a Grrrrreat example of it.
@@Nightmare77_Games It's biology explained by a plumber
It would give me short blunt 😭
Thats the first TH-camr who ever said have a wonderful day I saw
You too.

*caused
Its so sad how underrated you are. Your animations are amazing!
Damn, my abandoned save character got a personality and started a channel..
One of the first videos I found on PZ and actually watched was the Raleigh outbreak tape. No idea it was rare.
7:15 This is pretty much what some people from Louisville were saying on the paranormal show tapes. They said they saw something in the sky and a guy from the force said they didn't look like flares, Despite the fact that the authorities said that it was a military training with that
Another possible cause for the outbreak
6:26 I find it funny how they used a real life event that happened in Brazil that was the case of the "E.T de Varginha" or just "Varginha's E.T"
Animated Zomboid character is something I did not know I needed until now.
Its perfect
I didn't know they can only spawn once for each type VHS, which makes the game more interesting to play, it's like collectibles. thanks for the vids
better watch out if you accedently burn down a house
@@CreatorOfTheKoladi yeah it's unfortunate if that happens
What if the zombie outbreak is just mass hysteria and all the people are just exaggerating
slay them anyway :D
loving these videos!
I love these interesting bits of info about PZ! Thanks for another great video!
Your videos are exactly the type of content I look for. Thanks for making my night awesome with this incredible video!
I have an idea, we could make a project to log every radio, every vhs, every show
dude your 3d skits are so good i didnt even know that was possible
it really bothers me as to why project zomboid 3d animations are so rare
What the HECK.
Dang is TV OP.
Well, im making one heist of a loot run, so im gonna have to add a TV to things I grab.
I have that reflex when someone grinds nails on chalkboard every time he says Raleigh like that
High quality video and thanks for covering all of the vhs’s ive been trying to find myself
Holy shit I was not prepared for North Carolina to be part of the PZ lore. I live there! That is crazy man
Wait, the project zomboid human model can open its mouth? I thought it was just a decal
"Animations and other 3D stuff were made in Blender." -Description
(I dunno if this might answer this.)
Damn, my abandoned save character got a personality and started a channel..
Excellent backstory making. I have owned and played this game for 9 years and much of this was new to me. The animations really made it immersive, thx 👍🏻
varginha incident reference, nice one indie stone
i love your vids so much! the effort in creating 3d skits are amazing!!!
Interesting that 3 years ago. There was already a Zombie outbreak albeit smaller and got contained in Raleigh.
Well, it's wasn't exactly zombies, it said the disease ate the flesh, not the diseased eating fleash, so I assume it's like those brain eating parasites or leprosy
Either way, still strange their was another strange super disease with little military involvement

This is one of the most helpful videos ive ever seen. I never knew home vhs tapes were so damn useful.
Someome should make spiffo world as a custom map mod, would be interesting to see a theme park filled with zombies. As far as i remember only L4D2 did it.
Goddamn I am glad I stumbled across you
Found this guy through an iceberg video. This production quality is awesome and deserves WAY more attention
I found the nof vid by accident, popped it into my VCR and was pleasantly surprised by the decent amount of metalworking skill I got
Wow you went above and beyond for this one this is amazing!
dude i absoluetly love these animations oh my goodness
Raleigh is the new map extension we are being promised
You got a talent for this, is good stuff! Never played probably not going to its just not my game type but you betcha been bingeing your vids like bedtime stories ❤
Great animation
1:29 you made an oopsie
this the kind of zomboid videos we need
How do you make your animations so good?
A lot of Blender tutorials on TH-cam... A LOT :DDD
First time seeing you and seeing a zomboid character with a moving mouth scares me.
It’s my headcanon that Reverand Quigleys compound is this universe’s equivalent of Mount Carmel/Waco
that Brazil incident was really interesting. adds a new possibility to the mix. Alien virus dormant in a meatier shower/strike?
the cult tape reminds me of heaven's gate
Y'know, the asteroid could be added as another crazy theory of why the outbreak happened. I mean, in the end the cultists were right about the end of the world (in zomboid)
I think all the asteroid talk is a reference to dawn of the dead, as there's a TV segment of world leaders and high ranking officers talking about theorys of the dead rised
Man, Project Zomboid made a reference of the Varginha incident.
Its not the same story, but its cool anyway
at 1:28 the tapes are mixed up
So it was either a burger or a asteroid shower that caused the knox event
So if the outbreak started with the meat in knox, then its 100% spiffos fault. Which would be pretty funny if it was true.
Your high quality videos deserve more views
As a brazilain, ST 4 surprised me a lot
No idea if the event is true lol
MAYBE it's a parody of the E.T of Varginia tho
Yes!! I love UFO stuff
The begging is worth it, I subbed and liked, but only because you said please :D
The cult might have survived though...
Theory: the knox infection is a stronger verion of the one in brazil. The first sign of the infection is a bad smell, after all.
animation+rare tapes+good comentary=HELL YEA
what do you mean with +6 in skill ?
is that the whole ammount of xp you get ?!?
nice vid, nice voice, cool animations thatgoeswithoutsaying
If I rememeber correctly, +5 or +6 give you 1 whole level, that's if your character doesn't have either skill trait.
@@sqzpz It's not a level, it's a "hit" - I think most of them start as 12.5 XP. Which can then be modified by book multipliers etc.
Your so talented!!
How much VHS left?110?115?In specily I wanna know the VHS New kitty is.
Can’t wait for the military and NPC update, when do you think that’s happening?
when the last star in the sky burns out
the plus on each stat are just xp but i assume ur counting with standard 0,25x xp gain?
what if brazilians were immune to the airborn strain and the character we play as is part brazilian and thats why we are immune to it too
I have question is it xp or whole lvls
I believe +5 or +6 gives you 1 whole level, if your character doesn't have any skill traits.
Project zomboid devs being pro-union and making a satire c
Vhs ??
HOW BASED AND COOL CAN THESE PEOPLE GET ???????😊
Brazil mentioned lets goooooooooo
The animation was amazin why this vid get very low views share it to project zomboid community 🎉🎉🎉
Where's the best places to find those Home VHS ? They're all found in houses or in other places too?
I've only found them in homes, so I'm not sure if you can find them elsewhere. The most common place for them to spawn during my runs was in those small combined homes in Louisville.
@@sqzpz thank you man!
I was wondering why I didn't subscribe
Yay more tapes
ok u got me with your attempt to make me subscribe after 5 vids, sub+1 xD thanks for the great content and all your hard work :)
4x3 authentic...
Broooooo project zomboid just doxxed my aunt 😭
Is this a joke/spoof or do these actually exist in the vanilla game?
They do exist. There's 128 of them, but most of them are not that interesting lore-wise.
brazil
Good video ngl
🎉
Just use they

@sqzpz i love Your animation ❤️✌️😼🇵🇪
