Aezora Makovo Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I found several mods I really like, however they are for an older build and I was wondering if there is a simple-is way to make it work for the newest version. If you can help, but I'd appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORMtnMan Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Unfortunately, there is no one simple answer, it depends on what mod you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aezora Makovo Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 It's the dead overhaul mod found on the pz-mods site I the other section. It's a mod pack. Also it's intended for project zomboid build 26. Is there any way I can update it without simply rebuilding all the Mods into the current build?

ORMtnMan Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Not really, there were some significant updates to the code from 26 to 29. The code itself would have to be cleaned up and updated. Though some of the features of that mod are already implemented in the base code now (E.G. moving/disposal of bodies getting infected by them is sleeping next to them etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aezora Makovo Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 Thanks for your help. Also, is there anywhere that I might find an updated version of the Mods that I could use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORMtnMan Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Thanks for your help. Also, is there anywhere that I might find an updated version of the Mods that I could use? Unless the original authors update it themselves or they give permission to another modder to take it over, unfortunately not. A lot of modders will get burnt out of modding at this stage in development because the base code changes so much and thus causes issues with their mods. I would ask them real nicely to either update it or allow another (which could be you) to update it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harakka Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 As far as mods on these forums go, if they don't have any explicit license, the credit where due permissions are assumed to apply (it is still polite to try contact the author of course): http://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php/topic/2530-mod-permissions/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I err (possibly too much) on the side of politeness. I know I would not appreciate if someone absconded with my mod (that doesn't exist yet mind you) when I went on vacation for a week or so during a major update. So I treat others as I'd like to be treated. ZimTown and harakka 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
