RingoD123 got a reaction from Mikaze in Vanilla Buildings Pool
Here, for the first time ever, you will find our library of buildings from the entirety of Knox Country, but excluding Louisville, for now.
Some of the more unique "landmark" buildings from around the map have also been excluded for now.
Keep a look out for future releases too!

I placed the mods via the workshop tab, and placed them as you did ... it works for me too! the only difference in my previous tests was that I placed throttlekitty's tiles after Fantasiado's Thanks again so much for your patience and immediate response to solve my problems! -

RingoD123 got a reaction from Stir-fryYakimoto in My map doesn't show in the mod list [SOLVED]
Ah, you have your mod.info and poster.png inside of your media folder, they should be 1 level higher up, in your "mymapmod" folder, next to your media folder.

RingoD123 got a reaction from RiseToDefeat in WorldEd wont show what's in Tiled [Answered]
In WorldEd click on the little arrow next to layer 0 in the layers window on the right, those are the names you want to use for your layers, with either 0_ or 1_ etc at the start depending on the level you want to place tiles on. So "0_Floor, 0_FloorOverlay, 0_FloorOverlay2" etc.

RingoD123 got a reaction from DarnItJoshy in .PNG File Help Needed
Simply click on "flatten", you can use undo to get your layers back after you have saved one of your individual layer images. Use "save as" you're not wanting to override your layered image into a .png.

Create your buildings in BuildingEd and place them into your world using WorldEd.

RingoD123 got a reaction from Bizzer in The One Stop TileZed Mapping Shop
@BigZombieMonkey This is actually fixed by removing all trims from interior and exterior walls from the right hand side of the screen before placing them, bit of a bug. You can then add trim back to walls you have placed without this error occuring. Use the draw room tool as much as possible and only use the draw wall tool to add additional walls or to remove walls. But yes also make sure you are using walls that have the correct tiles for walls/windows etc to be placed.
Interior walls should only be visible when the interior of the building is visible, exterior walls are the same. ie North and West walls will almost always be interior walls and South and East walls will almost always be external, you can look at vanilla buildings for reference.

RingoD123 got a reaction from Kahj in Map mod not showing up in mod selection. Help?
If your mod isnt showing at all then there may be something wrong with your mod.info file, maybe you saved it as a text file instead? A good way to check your folder structure and files are correct etc is to subscribe to another map mod on steam and check their folders/files in their folders inside of the steamapps\workshop\content\108600 folder.

RingoD123 got a reaction from BigZombieMonkey in New Room Definitions (41.65+)
There is a guide here on how to mod loot distribution:
The list in this thread is the most up to date list of vanilla definitions, you can always check the distributions.lua and proceduraldistributions.lua files in your games "media\lua\server\items" folder to see if there has been any more additions.

RingoD123 got a reaction from ManoGihl in How to create new vehicle mods
1) The first thing you want to do, as with most mods is to create your mods folder structure, use the image below as a reference, replacing MOD_NAME with the name of your mod:
Don't worry about the files shown above, you will be creating them as you follow this guide, just make sure to remember, anytime you see "MOD_NAME" in this guide, replace that with the name you chose for your mod.
2) In your "..mods/MOD_NAME" folder, create your "mod.info" text file which contains the following code:
Remember to replace all "MOD_NAME"'s with the actual name of your mod.
3) In the same folder, create/place your MOD_NAME.png , this will be the thumbnail used in game as the poster/picture for your mod.
4) Next up, in your "mods/MOD_NAME/media/lua/client" folder, create your MOD_NAME.lua file with the following code inside:
This is the script that will load your model and scripts into the game, it also controls the spawn rate for the car in each type of zone as well as providing the vehicle mechanic overlay. Remember to replace all instances of "MOD_NAME" with the actual name you chose for your mod.
5) Next, in your "mods/MOD_NAME/media/scripts/vehicles" folder, create your MOD_NAME.txt file containing the following code:
This script example contains all of the parameters to control the simulation of the vehicle, such as engine power, gear ratios, collision cube and much more. You will (hopefully) find it well commented to give you an idea of what each parameter does. You can look in the games "media\scripts\vehicles" folder for a vanilla vehicle script that more closely reflects the vehicle you are adding rather than starting with the example above, have a good look through them all to get a sense of the different templates you can use and the various changes that can be made to different components.
6) Now you need to (if you have not already) make the 3d model for your vehicle. We suggest using Blender, but as long as you're experienced in 3d modelling, any program that can export .ply files should work, just make sure your faces are triangulated, in Blender you can do this by selecting your model in Edit mode then pressing Ctrl + T. Then drag and drop the exported ply file onto the converter supplied below (unzip the below file, drag your .ply directly onto the .exe, do not double click the exe), it will output a new txt file with the same name as the .ply in the same directory.
Copy the new .txt file into your "mods/MOD_NAME/media/models" folder as "Vehicles_MOD_NAME.txt
This is the .ply to PZ convertor:
PZ_PLYtoPZconverter.zip
7) Now it's time to create your vehicles texture files, these should all go into the "mods/MOD_NAME/media/textures/Vehicles" folder. First up is your "Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Shell.png" , this is the main texture image for your vehicle and needs to be 512x512 pixels, as do all of your textures, below is an example:
Next there are 6 different overlay/detail png's to create, the first is for the vehicle lights ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Lights.png"):
Then the vehicle rust ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Rust.png"):
The next 2 image examples ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Shell_Damaged01.png" and "Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Shell_Damaged02.png") are to show light and heavy damage, respectively, on the vehicle's shell. They are used to represent dents in the bodywork:
The next 2 image examples ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Overlays_Damaged01.png" and "Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Overlays_Damaged02.png") are very similar to the previous 2 except they are for showing damage on windows and lights as well as scratched on the body work:
The last file we need is the vehicle colour mask ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Mask.png"), which should also be placed in your "mods/MOD_NAME/media/textures/Vehicles" folder. This tells the game which parts of your vehicle texture correspond to which part of your vehicle model and is needed to display damage, lowered windows and removed elements etc:
Here the colour values to be used:
Copy your complete mod folder structure into your C:\Users\YourUsernameHere\Zomboid\Mods folder, load the game, turn the mod on in the mod menu and start a new game, your new vehicle is now ready to be found and taken for a spin.
Finally, here: ZAZ968M.zip - you can find an example vehicle mod using the above instructions.
Notice the included example mod uses a slightly different process with its textures/overlays. The main texture is transparent while the detail has been shifted onto the vehicle_lights .png. This allows the game to automatically and procedurally generate different colours of your car when they are spawned in.
Happy Modding!

RingoD123 got a reaction from Akaviren in WorldEd - Can't add a map to a cell
You most likely do not have a veg image, you need both your base image and your _veg image before you can drag your image into worlded. The one stop guide goes over how to make the 3 images needed (including the zombie spawn map) before going over how to import them into worlded.

Listed below are all of the current new room definitions, which should be used for internal room names in buildingEd. Under each roomdef is a list of the containers that definition has rules for. Any container you place that does not have an entry in the roomdef you have used will instead pull it's loot from the "all" definition for that container:
