Tidy Up Meister is a helpful mod too! For eg, after reading a book in Vanilla you have to manually put it back in the cabinet. With the mod, it automatically goes back to the cabinet for you instead. It’s tiny, but makes a whole lot of difference when playing.

i love quality of life mod but i LOVE the minimalism of the original hud and subtle mechanics encouraging "find it out for yourself" and experience with time, I use 2 in-game notebooks to write my goals, tasks, items I've already found or need to, and a diary that I write from month to month with tips on things I've learned (here's one, remove the car battery to deactivate a alarm quickly), I'm already surviving 5 months but I had a run with almost 1 year in game

The only thing I would mod is the inventory system. The rest is just good gameplay design focused on immersion and trial and error.

I run all of these, and I agree with their usefulness. A note about minimal display bars: you can turn some or all off and on and move them around/change scaling/ colors as needed. For example, I only have calories (because I always start underweight), health, endurance, and fatigue shown. Fatigue is particularly useful so you know if you're about to become drowsy before a big fight

I used to use the minimal display bars mod but a year ago it was conflicting with another mod and allowing me to walk through walls and cars, pretty funny but not immersive.

I recommend getting Mod manager, so you don't have to manually re-enable mods again also it lets you search the mods that you want. As well as save a mod load for new worlds.

I like the "has been read" mod for the vhs tapes too, since it allows me to know at a glance which ones ive seen already, like the original mod, and not have to dig through a bunch of menus, and the fact it also tells me which ones i might have back at base but havent necessarily watched yet, is a bonus. two other mentions would be the mods that allow you to drag and drop bag icons and hotbar slots to reorder them, instead of having to un-equip everything and then re-equip them in a specific order.

Another mod that I personally would advise is the water dispenser mod. It allows you to take the water jugs off of the water dispensers that you can find in office buildings. You have also fill the empty jugs up with fuel for your generators or cars.

Universal inventory. Got rows and rows of boxes for storage? All can be condensed to one slot. 100 zombies stacked on each other? Loot them all with one quick search.

Theres a mini health panel one where it shows your characters outline (like in the health section) n it shows bandages on it n if they get dirty they turn red N you can literally change them without going into your characters health by right clickin on the image I honestly prefer it over the bars

@DAS1337

I agree. I use it. Its just like Tarkov, but simplified. Its great with the simple moodle mod as well. Its not as exact as the bars, but it clearly shows you the level of moodle you have, so you don't have to squint to try and determine you have lvl 3 hunger or overweight. It just tells you. I use these two to replace the bars mod. And they look so much better than bars.

The others you can do by research in the wiki or just being aware of your character's condition but the literature mod is essential. Lets you mark books you already have so searching for ones you don't have yet becomes possible.

The worst thing you can do is make a character based on your true traits because then you realize you will never survive the zombie apocalypse lol

Fantastic mod suggestions!

Also a fun mod I recommend just to spice it up is the superb survivors mod which adds npcs you can interact with, join or have them join you but just beware some of em might not be so friendly

I think I buy this game today. And I already prepared to bombard this game with mods even without watching this video

Me waiting for a mod that gives you the ability to cure the zomboid infection:

very cool thanks for the vid.

Clear trait descriptions - for sure. Weapon condition indicator - good one too. Minimal bars - meh. Not my cup of tea because having to guess how much juice there is still in you is part of the fun I get from the game. And it also exposes some values like calories amount that are not accessible in base game even as moodles making diet management trivial. Read books - nah. First of all figuring out which books and magazines you have already finished reading is Don with just looking at the item info popup. Besides the main issue with books is having books you can't yet read but don't remember if you already have one at your base or should grab this one. And base game offers a solution for this. In looting window you can see small arrows next to items. Usually they are used to expand stacks of similar items. But they are still there for unique items too. So click expand on all books you have in your base. Now when you encounter a book in the wild, you can see if you have it already or not by seeing it it is expanded or closed list.

I would recommend adding "I can shoot and use generators" mod, adds you some shooting skill and gives you magazine for generators bcs I guess we don't need to be a military personel to not miss someone who's right in front of us, like what happened to me. Also we don't need some advanced knowledge on how to use generators...

Do aesthetic mods count? Stuff like small town responders and Sharks and Peach’s military improvements mod? Anyway, great short, added the first one to my mod list

There are a few mods that really help. I do not like the bar mod. Its intrusive. Instead, get the simple moodles mod that shows the level of moodle you have, which makes it much easier to decipher the severity of moodle, without requiring you to add a bunch of bars to your UI that doesn't match anything else the UI is doing. The other mods are good. Id also consider the tarkov UI, as it helps you make much better sense of what you have equipped and helps you make sense of the layers you have on at a glance. It attaches itaelf to your inventory, off to the left, and fits the UI very well. Lastly, the health UI, similar to tarkov, that you can move around on your screen. Shove it into the corner, it is invisible unless you are damaged, and you can right click it to apply bandages, etc. It removes the need to open your health panel entirely. Just a simple outline of your character that looks great and fits the original UI.

It became SIMS.. and it what we must have.

Like the rest is important too but the last one most definitely has to be in the base game

Ty!!!

i like having to check if my weapon is loaded manualy, i like having to keep track of durability on things. these things exist for you to potentialy forget... and die to a tiny mistake, zombies on their own have no chance of killing you until you make a mistake even a tiny one like not closing the window in the other room or loading in a empty mag

Make sure to check out the Heisenberg mod, you won't be disappointed.

For the “has been read” mod, the default game already does that for books and magazines when you hover over them so I don’t see the point

I like this other the the simplified moodles. I will be annoyed that they aren't 100% all the time. So base game keeps peace of mind for me lol

Some people say that the weapons indicator mod is non-immersive and even kinda cheating, but I completely disagree. I feel like you'd know if a bat in your hands was about to break 😂 I run with about 60-80 mods going, love PZ!

Common sense mod is an essential one for me tbh, not a huge change in gameplay but its soooo nice Also occupational starter items

Is there a mod that has you drop a primary/secondary carried bag when you draw a weapon in the same hand? (I find it highly unrealistic that you'd somehow pocket a duffle bag while you pull out your nightstick. Like where does that bag go? Would also make a lot more sense to reflex drop it instead of trying to fight while fully encumbered by your latest excursion. Not too overpowered either, at least not if the condition of the bag is reduced by a few percent by dropping it that way.

I'm surprised the durability mod isnt apart of the game

The bars you can combine them with the icon mod and will be better and understandable for a player MZ icons something like that xD is the name of that mod it's a complement for the bars. Also have been found? A mod that shows what books you have picked up or not xD

I like how you guys bringing back the bars and stats to make the hard game easier...

These should be in the base game. The popup for your weapon losing durability, not so much.. but the rest of that mod is great. Similar, the status bars are great, but most of them should be turned off for simplicity. Imo, HP, Endurance, and Fatigue are the ones that matter. Know when you are low on health, low on breath, and low on sleep, before the giant penalties kick in.
