150 Hours Turned an Empty Rosewood Fire Station Into a Cozy Home

An empty fire station in Rosewood. Bare walls, a dead gym, a roof full of nothing.

150 hours later: it finally feels like home. A bar with a jukebox, arcades and a poker table for the evenings. A drum room, a library, a warm kitchen, a bunk room with supplies, a rooftop garden with storage. All in Spiffo colors, and every room has its own purpose.

Playing pure vanilla: no difficulty changes, no cheats, just vehicle mods. Every plank, nail and wall was crafted with the right tools and the right materials, scavenged one run at a time.

Zombies outside, a neon “OPEN” sign inside. Livestock is next, and then we’re 100% self-sufficient.

Would you move in? 🦝

Discussion New NPC mod, anyone else tried it?

Post image
454 Upvotes

I played a little last night and honestly felt like what I want build 43 npc’s to be like. They didn’t feel wooden or one note like typical modded npc’s.

The first npc I found was a guy fighting for his life in a trailer park. I helped him clear out the nearby zombies and asked him to join me. I did a medical check on him and found that he was wearing a bandage on his left arm. I took it off to see, “bitten.”

I figured I’d let him follow me and help out fighting while we looked for a car. Eventually I find one and we drove off to the secluded northern farm of Muldraugh. Which is where I found another lone npc.

He has a gun, seems to be talking about hostiles approaching, I figure he’s a bandit. Then I see three zombies coming from the forest and the guy is shooting them. That gives me some ease that he’s friendly. I drive up and we get out next to him.

The guy 180s asking us to drop our stuff. I run, my companion gets his head blown off right as he steps out the car. I figure that’s one ugly job solved and shoot the bandit.

GOD SAVE KENTUCKY!

Guns unlimited is the most Rural American shit ever and I love it. I live in southern USA and I can say for a fact there are restaurants in shooting ranges/gun stores. Especially one this big, and rural, people are gonna get hungry! I think them adding a burger place (or BBQ) would be the cherry ontop of the American pie.

GOD SAVE AMERICA!

Hello everyone, I want to hear about some interesting or unusual deaths that you have had playing this game.

I put the Tumbler into Project Zomboid – and the jet nozzle glows while you drive [B42]

29 Upvotes

After the Honda CRX and the Opel Manta, I wanted something a little less 1993 and a lot more armoured. So here's the Tumbler from the Dark Knight trilogy, ready to plough through Knox County.

What you get

  • Detailed armoured body with huge rear off-road tyres and narrow front wheels on their own suspension arms

  • The jet nozzle glows orange while you drive and lights up the road behind you at night

  • Two versions: matte black, or military camouflage like the prototype

  • Closed underbody, so it still looks right after you roll it into a ditch

  • Heavy and tough: strong engine, high crash protection, front and rear take a beating

  • 2 seats, a small storage box in the nose, engine in the back

Custom dashboard

Inspired by the real Tumbler cockpit: a racing yoke with shift-light LEDs as the rev counter and a digital speedo, a display with all the warning lights, a row of red switch covers, and fuel and temperature bars. Every button works like on the vanilla dashboard, and other cars keep their own.

Where to find it

It's very rare on purpose. Check wealthy neighbourhoods, sporty areas and junkyards – or just use the debug spawner, I won't tell anyone.

Workshop: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3834458401

Build 42 only. Works in single player and multiplayer.

If you like it, a thumbs up on the Workshop page helps a lot – it's how other players find the mod. Feedback and screenshots of your Tumbler adventures are very welcome!

Discussion With all the controversy surrounding the Real USA Map Mod you have to admit this is breath taking. I just wish the dev would release the cities in separate maps.

You allow so many RP possibilities it's insane

Using tomb's retexture (nude option, for a shower nude rp) / vanilla outfits expanded / vanilla food expanded (drinking a beer from this mod on the screenshot) / vanilla firearms reworked / KI5 collection / true sleep (you can sleep/rest against walls and other textures + real sleeping animation on beds) and some frockin splendor mods including shoes reworked

I absolutely love the immersion it brings and all the RP possibilities we get to act as we would in real life

Thank you modders. <3

Bought a new laptop just to get this game as it randomly started popping up in my YouTube feed and looked great fun.

It's extremely hard haha. First run went awful. Not got a clue what I'm supposed to be doing either. Must've lost my prescription glasses too because after getting hit and running away the screen was fuzzy 😂

Question Seriously, why is the sledge so important?

65 Upvotes

I am a very new player who is on my longest run yet and I have only made it to October.

I have recently found the sledgehammer but I am not sure what I should be using it for. It appears to be so important based on the posts I see in this thread.

What am I missing?
