RingoD123 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 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: Spoiler mods MOD_NAME mod.info MOD_NAME.png media lua client MOD_NAME.lua models Vehicles_MOD_NAME.txt scripts vehicles MOD_NAME.txt textures Vehicles Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Shell.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Rust.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Mask.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Lights.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Shell_Damaged01.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Shell_Damaged02.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Overlays_Damaged01.png Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Overlays_Damaged02.png 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: Spoiler name=MOD_NAME id=MOD_NAME description=Some description poster=MOD_NAME.png 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: Spoiler local function info() dir = getDir(MOD_ID); loadVehicleModel("Vehicles_MOD_NAME", dir.."/media/models/Vehicles_MOD_NAME.txt", dir.."/media/textures/Vehicles/Vehicle_MOD_NAME_Shell.png"); VehicleDistributions[1].MOD_NAME = { Normal = VehicleDistributions.Normal, Specific = { VehicleDistributions.Groceries, VehicleDistributions.Carpenter, VehicleDistributions.Farmer, VehicleDistributions.Electrician, VehicleDistributions.Survivalist, VehicleDistributions.Clothing, VehicleDistributions.ConstructionWorker, VehicleDistributions.Painter }, } ISCarMechanicsOverlay.CarList["Base.MOD_NAME"] = {imgPrefix = "smallcar_", x=10,y=0}; VehicleZoneDistribution.parkingstall.vehicles["Base.MOD_NAME"] = {index = -1, spawnChance = 30}; end Events.OnInitWorld.Add(info); 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: Spoiler module Base { vehicle MOD_NAME { mechanicType = 1, offRoadEfficiency = 0.8, engineRepairLevel = 4, playerDamageProtection = 0.8, /* The first model is always used as the vehicle's model. */ model { file = Vehicles_MOD_NAME, scale = 2.15, offset = 0 0.20 0, } /* List the different skins for this vehicle here.

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: Spoiler Example: Unless you are using the advanced technique demonstrated in the included example mod at the bottom of this post, there should NOT be any part of this texture that is left transparent/white/black. Next there are 6 different overlay/detail png's to create, the first is for the vehicle lights ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Lights.png"): Spoiler Example: Then the vehicle rust ("Vehicles_MOD_NAME_Rust.png"): Spoiler Example: 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: Spoiler Examples: 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: Spoiler Examples: 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: Spoiler Example: Here the colour values to be used: Spoiler The zone The color Head #FF0000 Tail #00FF00 Front right door #00FFFF Rear right door #FFFF00 Front left door #FF00FF Rear left door #0000FF Front right window #007F7F Rear right window #7F7F00 Front left window #7F007F Rear left window #00007F Windshield #7F0000 Rear Glass #007F00 Front right guard #C000C0 Rear right guard #0000C0 Front left guard #00C0C0 Rear left guard #C0C000 Roof #000000 Right headlight #400000 Left headlight #C00000 Right tail light #00C000 Left tail light #004000 Right brake light #7F4000 Left brake light #7FC000 Right flashing beacon(The lightbar) #C0C0C0 Left flashing beacon(The lightbar) #404040 Hoot #FF007F Boot / Trunk door #00FF7F 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!

So you have unzipped the convertor .exe from the zip file? Are you exporting your model as a .ply file? Are the faces of your model triangulated? have you checked the folder the .ply is stored in for the converted .txt file? That's where it should spit it out but you might also want to also check the folder the convertor exe is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should pop up a dos-like window asking you to press any key to continue once you drag and drop the .ply onto it, it'll then spit out your .txt file and pop up a second dos-like window asking you to press any key to exit. If you're on Windows it should work fine if your AV definitely isn't interfering, I've just double checked and tried it myself on my Windows 7 machine and it works.

The only reason I can think of for it not running at all on a Windows machine is Anti-Virus related. For sanity sake you might want to re-download it, re-unzip it, possibly to a different location (root of your C drive for example) and then re-add it to your AV exceptions, might even be worth restarting the pc after adding it to norton.

Again, just keep upping the spawnchance and start new games after checking a few large vehicle spawns. Only other way would be to create your own test map with a single spawn point right next to a bunch of vehicle spawns. Darkstar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should set the spawn chance to 100? It's 50 atm. Could the mod be overwriting a preexisting vehicle, It's based of a van i think? Edit; the valuline van has 85 trunk storage for me but it should be 70. I think i broke the mod and didn't apply it to a new vehicle? Help Edit 2; the example mod doesn't even load either.

That will be my fault for completely getting ahead of myself and forgetting to stipulate that this will only work on the new weather test branch (right click on zomboid in Steam, click on properties and then betas, type the password "weathertestbranch", without "" and then click on check code, you should now be able to select weather from the betas list) at the moment, sorry, i'll add this info to the start of the guide. As long as you are using the .lua file in step 4 then you should be adding a brand new vehicle to the pool, not overwriting an existing one. Just make sure anything named "MOD_NAME" is given a unique name etc to guarantee no accidental overwrites etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
