Superhuman trait mod.

[Marinus]

My request is simple

 

I want to create a trait that does nothing but give you a ton of negative points in the character creation screen so I can create whatever character I like, including ridiculously overpowered ones, by choosing that trait.

 

Is that easy to do, and if the answer is yes, how?

 

I did search for a similar mod on the forums, but couldn't find one, btw, (Which I thought was a bit surprising.)

I actually made a profession that works like that, it adds 1000 points, all profession traits and starts with all skils at lvl 3 +125% XP Boost.

If all you want is points then you can download it and edit the file in media\lua\client\Professions\cheaterman.lua like this

 

require('NPCs/MainCreationMethods');local function initProfessions()	local cheaterman = ProfessionFactory.addProfession("cheaterman", getText("UI_prof_cheaterman"), "profession_cheaterman", 1000);endEvents.OnGameBoot.Add(initProfessions);

That will simply make the profession add 1000 points.

Thank you for your quick and complete reply, Svarog, I think it's pretty much exactly what I was looking for.

 

Now leme see if I can get it to work...

It's sort of what I had in mind, but instead of a cheater profession, I'd prefer a cheater trait you can choose. That way you can create a truly custom character because you also get to choose a profession. Still thanks for the Mod anyway, it's still very usable for my evil schemems. One thing,  the "only 1000 points"version of the mod seriously messes up the layout of the starting screens. Everything still works AFAICT but it's not particularly pretty.

Uh... did you place that mod into the game directory? Because you were not supposed to do that. Mods go into C:\Users\%username%\Zomboid\mods otherwise they replace the game files and mess stuff up.

I'll make a trait version of the mod later.

[Marinus]

Yeah, I did put it in the game directory, and now you mention it, a UI file got copied, so that's probably the problem.

 

 I'll make a trait version of the mod later.

 

 

That would be great , thanks

Hello, I'm new to modding Project Zomboid. Is there a way to make this cheaterman to where the profession has normaal exp lvls, no boost but has like 10 points to spend?

I redesigned the mod to add two Cheat traits, one adds 1000 points to spend and the other does that + adds skill bonuses. Enjoy.

Remember to place the folder into your C:\Users\%username\Zomboid\mods directory and then activate the mod from the MODS menu after you launch the game.

Also, sorry for the delay but I had a ton of stuff to do IRL and I couldn't even get 6 hours of sleep

including ridiculously overpowered ones,

Unlimited powah?

[Marinus]

Thank you very much, Svarog, I'll try it out tomorrow as it is nearing my bed time here.

 

@UnmotivatedZombie: more to have access to a wider variety of characters, but fooling around with an overpowered character can be fun, yes.
