@xXSly_WolfyXx @zoeyflower thought I'd abandon my dream of becoming an artist and see what I could accomplish with existing tiles. Didnt forget your precious shadows either lol
Thats pretty damn impressive especially with this being just the original tiles

This reminds me so much of The Long Dark, which could give you some inspiration if you haven't checked it out. Plus, I'm Canadian, so it's nice see someone represent lol.. makes me wish there was a Canadian flag pole
Your roofing is awesome; I find it very difficult so.. respect. Especially, it's small but, the roofing on that main street buffet building... can't believe I didn't think of that, I've been trying to think of creative ways to put those circus tent things above windows but they only come in 2 colours, so either way it will start looking a bit dull after a while.
add shading under that bridge and im sold that this is a 3d game with elevation after all lol

This is a rough mockup, sorry for the bump but I wanna make sure people see what I mean

impassable floor tiles and a shadow overlay. awesome, and simplicity itself
EDIT: @xXSly_WolfyXx, for the sake of isometric perspective, dune 2000
snipped the pic
Stuff like this is exactly what I had in mind for forests, it would blend in with the grass on the north side and then have a steep dirt cliff on the south, it would be about as high as the trailer park foundations give or take so players could walk over them, while others would be bigger and have invisible walls infront of them to give the illusion of being elevated ground and impassable.

I do have The Long Dark on Steam and I really REALLY love the game so much.Its artstyle is really amazing and I found the nature and overall landscaping awesome, funny you mention it cause the initial idea of setting it in Canada actually came to me when I was playing that game just being all stunned at how awesome western canada and its nature really is.
A lot of the buildings I done were inspired if not 1:1 remade directly from pictures I took from the long dark and I was planning to set it in a small lakeside real life town in the Yukon territory that is called Dawson I think?
The very poor suburb house from the second picture I linked is an as close as possible street view remake from one of the dawson suburb buildings.
My main inspiration for everything gaming and creativity related that I'm doing however is The Last of Us and I kinda shifted the location over to my home state Indiana cause no one ever really represents it and sets it in the midwest (see the crew, or the driftless map for unturned, which completely left it out and made it a random big forest in both examples) but I'm still very excited about including Canada in PZ.
I'm mainly still waiting for the devs to add the new tilesets in and maybe update the tools a bit before I start my work on custom tilesets which I will then use for my next map the yukon territory, and that will include flagpoles and flags being retextured to the iconic and beautiful red maple leaf flag
If the nature tiles and hills stuff works out for the canada map ill see about including them in my Indiana map too but that's all for the future.
Pretty sure I still got the mountaineers hut, the Mistery Lake camp office, and a WIP of the Pleasant Valley farmstead somewhere around

32 minutes ago, critical jim said:I had some issues with this too. If you've not downloaded the new tileset from may 2015 you'll have to do that. I think I just googled it. If you have them, in the building editor you need to go to building/tiles...
there's a button in that window that says "tilesets..."
from there, find your new tilesets and add them all.
my goal is to make probably a 1.5x to 2x bigger downtown area than West Point, but probably won't go too crazy with suburbs. Another focus is creating subtle chokepoints/bottlenecks within the downtown area. I will probably change the town hall some more, and maybe compare some similar buildings like the new courthouse in Rosewood, and create something original but familiar. It's always been my favourite building, just as downtown West Point has always been my favourite place, but if I do eventually put it out there, then I suppose I should cater to others somewhat and make something new and worthwhile. In the end though, this map is for me, so if it doesn't have that same nostalgic, white bread, middle American feel that WP has, it just isn't worth my free time.
Thanks for telling me about the new tiles.
Also, your idea is awesome and I hope you follow through with doing this.
I really don't want to insult any of the other custom maps as they're awesome, but they all have the non-zomboid feel in the sense of not being in the style of the devs original game, I would definitely download your map and actually play on it if it's basically 'just' a bigger version of an original location that has buildings in the exact style and look of the original buildings

How did you add that fireplace? I've been dying to add those to my buildings but they along with other things like the entire Mall tileset are just a bunch of red question marks.
Also I kinda like how you're making it look just like West Point it's refreshing from all the new location / new state / new country maps with those crazy buildings (as in good crazy of course) it's like you're giving us a kinda different and (much?) bigger version of West Point with the developers art and building style along with a bit of your own flavor?

Video generation takes developer time away from working on features. Sometimes it's easy to throw a video together, in which case it's a higher priority. Other times.. it's incredibly painful, because a small but vital component of the game's core engine is under renovation.
or just a picture of something in 3d max like the new clothing thats been worked on? just anything visual
pictures from the animation update and videos like anything like the huge amount of new weapons and attachments youve shown us had me looking at them for months straight never being disappointed and always eagerly awaiting
its like im starting to think if the wait is worth it and then i look at the videos with the new combat the gore overlays the loads of new guns different revolvers THE M16!!!!!!!!!!!! with the duct taped kitchen knife bayonet attachment the new clothing the park ranger gear the visible backpacks youve shown us and most of those were taken straight in 3ds max and i looked at those and was like hell yeah it sure is worth it and if you provided some cool pic/s of pretty much ANYTHING animation related each mondoid or so id totally be completely content but thats just me but im sure others would feel the same i cant wait for it ive been playing soooo many different games waiting for this and i keep coming back every monday hoping for just a pic or so it would be really awesome but i understand if it doesnt work out well

Exactly, boredom and happiness also have zero real world impact on an individual except in their own head. Enforcing the personal preferences of the character would be more realistic. You might have a character who hates yellow and is disgusted with seafood or a character who just loves potato chips and the color green so you are on a quest for all things green for your dream bunker as you desperately try to stock up on potato chips.
i would never put a pint of mayonnaise or ketchup or mustard or dressing or whatever of these disgusting afoodimations anywhere near my tongue or body in general I despise the idea of being even close to those and if the apocalypse ever happened i would rather die to being burned alive while having zombies rip my entrails out and tear my cheek off my face than ever even as much as looking at a bottle of ketchup / mayonaise / mustard / salad dressing
i dont even eat those ingame when i see em i just pack em up and throw them into the river at west point and then i just imagine them being washed off into the deepest layers of hell where theyll turn into dust
and i never go back to that dreaded spot at the river
cause its no longer a spot at the river
its just a spot of shame
and disgust
and hate
if all the things i mentioned were sentient id torture them to death

So the incoming clothing and bites+blood system has different layers for types of clothing or bite + blood marks for injuries, right? It'd be fantastic for character differentiation to see an expansion on it that corresponds with what kind of body type or tattoos the survivor has. So, maybe a character creation table for a couple body tattoos the same way you might customize a shirt (or however it gets chosen,) or sleeve tattoos if they're a really tough gal/guy. If a survivor has the overweight or underweight traits, they would get noticeably softer looking skin, and maybe contour shadows under their tummy or chest to simulate a belly if they're fat, or shadows to look leaner or frailer if they're thin. Chubby survivors wouldn't have the little rib marks n stuff, thin survivors would have them about as prominent as regular. I think this would really emphasize character differentiation with that same neat little level of detail that has always really charmed me and lots of others with the game.
I would also love to see warpaint kinda stuff then, like painting your face blue or drawing red lines across your eyes with corresponding paint color buckets, it would be cool for multiplayer or just general roleplay i would run a blue frog group and have em wear blue lines or face paint it would be pretty cool.
ALSO
This would probably be hard to implement but also cool would be skin progression when you get infected, like halfway in your character would get sunken eyes and notably but not too notably greener / purple-er skin and get the frail body effects with rip cage bones and such.It would be cool to see little details like that especially now with 2x tiles and the bigger zoom levels that make you notice way more stuff and little details like that, you could then also really see that someones about to turn without having to check their medical status

Thank you very much I try my best not to make the roofs oversized or flat on houses this means most of the houses will be rather small-mediumish (even the rich gated community ones) but they make up for that by being nicer to look at and live in and they got working attics
Thanks for the info I'll try importing my map with the veggie one later on I can't wait to see it all working ingame

There will probably never be a fix for sprinting zombies in MP -- the server would have to send an excessive amount of info to keep their position up.
The option should just be removed, honestly.
Removed from multiplayer only, not singleplayer, right?
Otherwise I'd be quite disappointed...

I would love this as a setting it would make nights a whole new game / level of terror

That would be an interesting twist to the game. I like it.
IM GLAD! It would be like the knife kills we got right now where you always get an instant kill on the zombie and you have this quick special animation where you grab the top of the zombies head and jam the knife into its jaw, it would be like that with axes and machetes but with a different more appropriate animation.

Might be better in the suggestions forum?
IMO though the way it is is fine, getting an axe lodged for 2 secs in every zombie is going to get you dead pretty quick. It would be really neat if it were an accidental thing whereby a bad swing gets lodged, and you choose between pulling it out while the horde closes in or letting it go and having the zed shamble back into the horde with your axe.
No, I don't want to play yet another boring game where all you do with every single melee weapon on earth is the same boring generic swing to the side and repeat it a few million times until your victim is dead.

How about this you take pancake dough and waffle dough and then you make the pancake and cut about half of it off and then you kinda like mix the half of it into the waffle and then bake the waffle up and then youll have some kind of hermaphrodite pancwaffle abomination that is waffle on the outside but pancake on the inside bam no more being torn about your feelings cause you have both of em in one bite and one product just remember that with great power comes great responsibility
V what a pile of crepe
QuotePancake or Waffle?
Neither: Crepes for the win!

It's seriously frustrating that a fireaxe or any sharp weapon actually has the same dumb swinging til they're dead bullshit that every other game has, I'm hoping the animation update atleast adds in special combat for sharp weapons like when you hit a zombie with a fireaxe they always instantly die but a kill takes like 2 seconds for the animation where you see him slamming the axe into the skull and then kicking the zombie off, if we get the same generic gamey swing-the-axe-to-the-rotten-decomposed-face-9-times-til-theyre-dead shit I'll be thoroughly disappointed especially after like 5 polar cap meltdowns of waiting and "we're working on it" 's I still cant wait for it and check the mondoids daily and am pumped but I just want you to know that I'd be way less pumped if fireaxes have the exact same combat as blunt weapons just with more damage.
Will we at least get cool special killing animations for sharp weapons like the fireaxe?

Keep the hype down a little its the number one thing making exciting releases seem boring because you'll always (unfairly) expect more than what may get released

I got Mountains kinda done (rough draft)
Plus I've redone some of the map
And created a ton of custom suburb houses that aren't based on any blueprints / street view imagery / stock photos might post pics of them later if I manage to unlazyfy myself

i really like the lenny face because it is the study of humans, past and present and to understand the full sweep and complexity of cultures across all of human history, the lenny face draws and builds upon knowledge from the social and biological sciences as well as the humanities and physical sciences
