How to make and load a 3d model (weapon) in game (Video series)

[Blackbeard06 87]

I have learned enough to pass on the knowledge on how to make your own custom 3D models for Project Zomboid. This is mainly for weapons, but can be used for any model. I have created a video series showing you everything from designing, color, importing, and programming the model to work in game. In time I will release many more tutorial videos on anything and everything with Project Zomboid. I hope you guys can enjoy and more importantly benefit from my videos. If you have any suggestions on things that I have not covered please let me know!

any idea on how to get clothes in as custom items? i got the models ingame but i can't figure out how to make them items.

I am not sure about clothes. I have not looked into as I'm waiting for the animations to be finished. I believe that I've seen something in the devblogs about modding cloths once the anims happen.

I'm wondering if you can help me work on my ideas for a silent hill like game mode.

 

First thing is how do I go about changing the zombie meshes?

I'm not sure at the moment. I'm slowly beginning to breakthrough on learning everything. Currently with the new updates coming (soon) to PZ a lot will change. I'm waiting for that to happen before I start updating the tutorials and models.
