I'm using the Filibuster Rhymes weapon mod' Acceptable Guns DEMO! There is a function to turn off the spawn of vanilla weapons. But, for some reason, I still meet zombies with vanilla weapons (not all of them, but most of them) Does your mod do this?

does this works with STFR?

Any chance of mod settings for sandbox? I can understand if you're busy or something of the like, or are waiting for b42 to update. Any updates on the state of the mod or what you're doing with it would be appreciated. I have used the mod before and as some others have said there is an abundance of the zombies and loot added by the mod. I might just go through the file settings and tweak some stuff. You said something about adding settings in the next update for the mod back in august so I'm just curious of the state of the mod.

Any way you can add Mod Settings on sandbox so we can lower values of certain zombies?
I really like the idea of the mod but i don't want an overwhelming ammount of Military and Bandits/Looters.

Big thank you in advance

Thanks! maybe double check exactly what zombies often spawn with backpacks and avoid those as well? Like it might just be a certain variant of police/military zombie, or maybe you can adjust the spawn rate of the backpacks on those zombies to rebalance things?

@Black_moons - Thanks for bringing that up! It hasn't had the settings tweaked in a while. I think I will add options in the next update so people can customize the spawn rates.

@Axxux - Yes you can. You can add or remove it mid game with no problems.

It only effects spawning so it may take a moment for you to notice it take effect. If you visit any new areas with it, they will be effected right away because first visits trigger fresh spawns.

can i add this mid save

I love the idea of this mod, but after doing a run with and without this mod, the difference is stark. This mod adds so many police/military zombies with bags of loot or boxes of ammo I end up with overflowing lockers of guns and ammo with this mod. Every time I mow down a hoard I find far more ammo then I used in the bags of loot/on police zombies/etc.

welp, somehow bugs with an Guns of 93 (B42 test build)
Something with guns spawns on zombies, would be lovely to make that as option i guess

and maybe SWAT team members, ofc

Ngl would be cool to see an Ghillie zombies, rare pilots, and all kinda of military zombies: Desert, and very very rare urban ones

mod works now. not sure what the heck happened but, after you updating the mod along with me unsubing and resubing it works now

@OrgeLeg Currently busy with a current run but, once i get the chance i will check the mods menu and then start a 2nd run with your mod

Ok let's see if that did it. Can you load it in Build 41 now? If this works I'll need to do it to my other mods too.

Hmmm, it's possible the new file structure isn't working for older versions. That would effect build 40 too. I'll rewrite and restructure it so that it checks for versions in the code instead of relying on file structure. I'll be home soon to fix it, shouldn't take too long.

playing on B41 and for some reason State of Emergency isn't showing up on my mods list. Is the mod named differently now or is that a bug of sorts?

Nice to see this great mod to be brought up to date. Also it is great to see you back in action OgreLeg

This mod has been updated to work on builds 40, 41, and 42.

awesome mode bro, good luck!

Oof! I forgot a lot of my stuff got wiped! Some of these I might have to do from the ground up again so if anyone has any ideas or requests, now's the time while I'm having to go through everything.

Phew! I finally got my own game finished and released on Steam. Now that I have more free time I got that Zomboid itch that needs a'scratchin! I think in hindsight my feelings were more of a me problem now that I have time to breathe. I also know that some people from here supported my game's Early Access and I wanted to say "thank you" somehow. So consider these mods back in action! I've got to get familiar with the new mod procedures and then everyone can expect updates. Maybe even some new mods! Stay alive out there o/

thanks for everything big dawg

o7

it's sad to hear, hope you have good luck on everything on life, take care of yourself.

Dear fellow survivors,
There was a problem with the build 42 installation and my workshop folder got wiped. So a lot of my Zomboid stuff is just gone. I'm sure I have some backups on my old laptop but I'm gonna be honest... I was already pretty disappointed in build 42 and looking at the amount of work I'm gonna have to do to update all my mods and get back into the swing of things... I'm just not interested. I'm genuinely sorry to anyone that likes my work and is excited for build 42 but we are talking like 300+ hours of work for a game I don't even play anymore. Other modders are more than welcome to update, use, or re-make any of my mods. Maybe I will be back one day when they release build 42 multiplayer. Until then, good luck and stay safe!

Highway to the Danger Zone

or you can just wait for a estable version (but that would take more time)

@elcartucho5566 - Oh yeah for sure. Probably going to be updating all of my mods as soon as I have time to dig into the new unstable branch files.

will this be updated for build 42?

officers in america probably even back then use a pistol as a sidearm 'at their side'. while theres a shotgun in the trunk of the patrol car with maybe 10-15 shells. and basic road hazard supplies like traffic cones warning triangles and a pry bar, etc

Isnt that a standard weapon for most officers? (apart from other countries obviously)

Been using the mod for a while and I love it. But I would like to see the zombie loot table change according to sandbox loot rarity settings or the mod having one. It's quite easy getting hold of night sticks even on insanely rare.

@OgreLeg gotcha man, tx for responding

@Mc Rodaaar - Sorry, broski, but it's not this mod causing your woes. That's actually vanilla Zomboid code doing that. They changed a bunch of stuff with how zombies spawn and it causes all sorts of strange issues with zombie spawning, especially in multiplayer. This mod doesn't touch zombie spawning, just what zombies are wearing when they do spawn.

I hope they fix it soon. The zombie spawning update broke a lot of mods that deal with actually spawning zeds, like in my "From the Fog" mod or that "Here They Come" mod. I'm keeping an eye on things though and trying to update my mods accordingly.

I've read through comments here and it seems that groups that spawn in enclosed areas are a common theme. Personally I've been attacked twice on my base when returning from loot runs. Can you do smth abt this? cuz I have no other zombie mods besides "night runners"

Hey Ogre, is this compatible with STFR by any chance?

can it be added to a existing save

@Lunarc - This plugin doesn't mess with actual spawning functions, it just gives the spawning process more to work with. If you're having issues with zombie spawns it's probably another mod.

find whenever you can answer this but did this mod glitch the zombie spawns and did you fix that?

great news. i deleted my old comment

I'm coming to a close on my indie game project any day now. I'll be back on Zomboid soon and I'll be going through all my old mods for updates, twaks, and maybe even some new mods.

Yes. it`s not break the They knew mod. I play with it.

@ginempress it does not break the They knew mod you just have to change its setting when making a world for it to have a chance to spawn they will still spawn its just the spawning pool is now more flooded due to this mod so you need to buff the spawn chance so they can still spawn

Hey, there any odds of this mod getting another update?

This mod seems to break spawns for the zombies from They Knew. I can't be 100% certain but I noticed the cure zombies stopped spawning, so I went through my recently added mods, disabling them 1 by 1, disabling this mod seemed to fix the issue. Ran around in a new game and was able to find two of them within my first 100 kills.

are these all zombies or do still alive versions exist too?

is this compatible with brita?

Our server is also seeing "constant trickles of zombie spawning" and I understand there are setting to manage this, and it is not that. I'm also not sure if this mod is the cause... Main reason I stopped by was to mention we are seeing a lot of multiples of a zombie type spawning together. In some cases, we have had 10 zombies with only 2 different types of zombies in the group
