CaptainSchettino Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Is there any written tutorial for mod making? I am not a zoomer, I cannot stand half an hour if incoherent schizo rambling from a wannabe Youtube star. Lacking this, is there any Youtube video that goes straight to the point without rambling and trying to act cool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papuce Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) Hi, this is all I found: -- MOD tutorial (outdated, but works) -- PZ documentation & tutorials -- JAVA class signatures (missing any real documentation like comments, explanation etc.) https://theindiestone.com/zomboidjavadocs/ -- JAVA class signatures (nearly identical, but some of the methods here are not listed in the other java doc) https://projectzomboid.com/modding/ -- LUA Events (outdated, probably just a small part of the all really available) https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Modding:Lua_Event Btw if you want to debug your code and print anything, those logs are saved to /Users/.../Zomboid/Logs/...DebugLog.txt - if loading the mod itself on the game start. And they are saved in the /Users/.../Zomboid/console.txt if you log something in the real game (while playing). EDIT: NEW AND UPDATED MOD TUTORIAL IS HERE https://github.com/FWolfe/Zomboid-Modding-Guide Also some cool modding stuff and Discord community is related to this project https://github.com/cocolabs/pz-zdoc (see info in the repository readme) I spent 2 days browsing internet and github, it is really really hard to find and should be pinned somewhere in the modding section of forums directly...

yooks Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Here is a mod development framework I wrote for Project Zomboid: https://github.com/pzstorm/capsid The project README contains detailed instructions on how to set it up and use it. In my opinion the best way to start learning how to mod Project Zomboid is to engage with the modding community on Discord and start working on a small and simple collaborative project with other modders. This way you learn not only about modding but also about software development and project management, which are good things to know when you are writing code in any capacity. You can find links to our Discord communities here: https://github.com/pzstorm/capsid#discussion Edited May 12, 2021 by yooks trombonaught and Papa_Chad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
