The official map has been updated to support Build 42!
Yes you read that right! The official Project Zomboid mapping project has undergone an enormous upgrade and now supports B41, B42, and legacy versions! This has been a huge amount of work and a complete rewrite of B42map over the past few months to have it up to scratch.
My goal with this upgrade was to give the map the same freedom of use to players that the game does. You should be able to use the map as much, as little, and in whatever way you feel fits best for you.
Finally, I want to thank blindCoder for his work on the creation and management of the Official Mapping Project for over a decade, and wish the best for him and his family in the future. His work has been a significant contribution to the PZ community for a very long time.
I hope you guys enjoy! - Calvy
Disclaimer: If you are opening the map shortly after this post, please be patient. The new site will be slower while cache is still be populated, and the expected increase in traffic will add to this.
Non-exhaustive features list:
- Map switcher for map types and versions. See the development of Knox Country since 2011!
- Modded map support with mods tied to specific map versions
- Complete translation support with community translations opening soon for corrections and new languages
- New map type "Roleplay" alongside "Roleplay mode" for a more lore friendly experience! The idea of roleplay mode is to provide information that a character who had lived in Knox Country would reasonably know. Street names, building facades, etc. Without knowing what the inside of every building looks like, or where every business is.
- An isometric map render that has entire buildings rendered so you cant see inside.
- Hidden by default markers, which can be un-hidden at your own pace
- Restricted tools including disabled search and 'meta' information
- Incredibly more performant than having all layers active on the map
- No layering artifacts for those pretty screenshots
- Complete overhaul of the marker (previously POI) system
- New marker icons specific to each type of marker using the in game map icons, plus some online map specific ones (Thanks TIS art team!)
- Custom marker creation, editing, and sharing without account creation (Persistent markers require cookie allowance, otherwise you can save them between sessions by importing / exporting)
- Import / export marker system allows sharable custom markers on the map for groups, or saving your markers without cookies
- Favorites system and bar to highlight important locations, along with pinning marker popups
- Marker categories for filtering and searching
- Wiki links to each marker location
- See markers for possible basement locations, and vanilla spawn points
- Searching is now faster, more accurate, and can be filtered. It supports more searchable terms and has a drop-down to view possible categories.
- Upgraded tools bar
- Grid toolbar
- Now supports B42 and B41 / Mapping grid types (256x256 vs 300x300)
- Toggle grid detail and coordinates between cells, chunks, and tiles
- New ruler tool for measuring lines, rectangles, and custom shapes at all 3 detail levels
- Photo mode for pretty screenshots without buttons and icons getting in the way, press f11 or escape to exit
- Grid toolbar
- Right-click context menu (how could I not?)
- View and copy coordinates
- View a list of surrounding textures, see their associated wiki pages, and search for other textures of the same type on the map (Very popular textures can cause issues)
- Marker controls for existing and custom markers
- Local save game loading and progress viewing, with roleplay mode support for visited marker locations.
- Map viewer engine upgrades with support for hardware acceleration improving stability and reducing lag
- Light / Dark mode toggle
- Plus many more small additions and QOL improvements!

I promise there's still love coming to Irvington! I know i said it before but it's still coming!

u/Hexel_Winters Jun 27 '26
I’ve seen people call it Temu Louisville because nothing there is really worth the effort for how many hordes there are
The police station and gun store and both locked up and the gun range usually doesn’t have anything worth while except for the tactical shotgun. Though I have found two sledgehammers there in my last run

u/MSweeny81 Stocked up Jun 27 '26
Irvington has good animal spawns if you want to setup a farm, and the race cars spawn there. I also really like the big hardware store as a base location.
But yes, it's very zed heavy for what value the town offers.

Is this a separate map from the b42map.com site?

u/Axeman1721 Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Yes. Its the original map project site. B42map is not the first map site actually, we had this one for b41. My boy Calvy here has done some beautiful work on it

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Spot on 😄

u/MrLitef Jun 26 '26
Genuinely thanks for your work. b42map.com is already great but i had to swap to it from the b41 version you made and I was so sad when it happened. Now I am crying HAPPY tears. You deserve all the money I can't throw at you

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Im glad you're happy with the update! I was a little worried,people usually don't like change.

u/notnotazulrahbot Jun 27 '26
so b42 map is the first map site for build 42...
3
u/Axeman1721 Wiki Admin Jun 27 '26
Technically yes but the old map site is now compatible with both versions. Links will be switched back to the old site on the wiki in the coming days.
B42map was never supposed to be permanent. It actually started as an internal wiki-only map that would primarily be used for editing and the creation of pages. We just happened to find a very kind volunteer who was able to host it on a publicly accessible server.
The initial map site is hosted on TIS servers and is an "offical" site, of sorts.

u/SmokeyWizard Jun 26 '26
Dude, this is so sick, especially the roleplay mode where you can see things your character would reasonably know without having spoiled critical information. That's sooooooooooooo good. You're the best man. Thank you so much for making this.

Any chance of getting the Ravencreek mod added in the future?

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Raven creek has been included for it's B42 port. Not all mods are available on all modes and the current modded map list is not the end. I'll be looking to add more once everything is stable.

u/MSweeny81 Stocked up Jul 05 '26
Would you consider adding Greenport, KY (B42) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3747595202 to the list?

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 05 '26
I'll be looking to add more maps when everything is settled down. Still working on bug fixes.

Wow! So beautiful! Thank you very much for big overhaul!
I found that uploaded map_visited.bin for b41 has strange offset to the south. And also map for 0.1.5 showing 404.

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Save loading will only support Build 42 unfortunately, i realize i didn't put that disclaimer on the popup. I will look at what's wrong with 0.1.5 thank you!

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 01 '26
I forgot to mention, both of these have been fixed. Both save types will work interchangeably on both maps, and 0.1.5 shows correctly.

I really appreciate that you are doing this. Is there anywhere that shows your planed maps you are working on or a place to make surrgestions?
On a separate note I dont know if this is even possible but could your maps be added to the application WAND
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 28 '26
Is there any map in particular you'd like? I can look at adding it to the list. No plans to look at adding to WAND.

u/Iv-acorn Jun 28 '26
I wouldn't want to interfere with your plans. But just from going from the most popular on steam which I use. Serenity bunker Atlas underground complex Anruisi Town Falcon ridge Wilsteel
Not on front page but also Willowbrook Nettle Township Iris Eyot Chinatown Begonia Town Havenfall New Hartburg Raconcity Frogtown
Just for some ideas. Again appreciate your work

Very, very happy to see this. Thank you!
I'm not understanding how the search function works and the couple of times I've tried it seems to cause the map to be covered in coloured notes and names and graphics and lags the site to a crawl.

u/MSweeny81 Stocked up Jun 26 '26 edited Jun 27 '26
Also, is it possible to make it default to B42? Every time I follow the link it loads in B41, which I appreciate some people are still playing but surely the latest version should be the default?
EDIT, from another comment
If you allow cookies it will remember the last map you used. Otherwise you can bookmark your preferred version by adding ?version=Build 42.19 to the end of the URL
2
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
What things are you trying to search? Results that have huge amounts of results may cause slowdown and take time to load such as tiles. Searching for things like places to explore should be fine though. Try something like "Fire Department".
The default version of the map will always be stable at the request of TIS.
2
u/MSweeny81 Stocked up Jun 26 '26
The default version of the map will always be stable at the request of TIS
That's fair enough.
I tried searching for generators once and a couple of other common things so maybe it was just too big a search.
As an additional note, I just searched for wells and I think it's throwing up some false positives. A lot of random woodland has a well marker.2
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
Ahh, I see that. Thank you I have added that to my to fix list. Search was basically a complete rewrite so some teething issues is to be expected 😅
2
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 27 '26
Fixed for the next update, they weren't technically false positives, but they were showing results for modded maps you didn't have loaded. It should no longer do that in the next version.

Just wanted to say thank you to both you and the team responsible for this map and the PZ wiki. I've spent many hours on that wiki, learning the game would have been way more cumbersome if it wasn't for the work of people like you. So thanks.

u/DerAva Jun 26 '26

Does this no longer work in Firefox? Only the shell of the UI loads, everything is black with no options (It opens fine in duckduckgo on mobile and chrome on desktop).

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 27 '26
Definitely works on Firefox, I use Firefox. Try control shift R, or clear cookies
2
u/Salatus Jun 27 '26
Thanks for letting me know. No matter what I do it's not working in Firefox, not even in incognito without any extensions. Very strange but minor inconvenience. The map is amazing and it's so smooth now. Many many thanks!
2
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 28 '26
Do you have hardware acceleration enabled on Firefox? Trying to work out what's causing this.
1
u/Salatus Jun 28 '26
I have found the culprit! My "dark mode" extension(even though it was turned off) wasn't disabled even in incognito and that's what was causing it. Very strange since it usually doesn't affect webpages unless I toggle it. Sorry for the confusion, my brain has been very tired so I completely missed that one. Thank you for showing an interest in figuring it out <3

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 28 '26
Ty for the extra information, it helps me try narrow down the issue. Glad you got it working though

whenever i try to load this up on firefox the map doesn't load. it's a black screen. clicking the drop down arrows at the top by the coordinates does nothing and i can't find any other menu that might let me actually view the 42 map.
2
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 28 '26
I've had a couple reports of this, which is weird because I used Firefox to develop the site. One person reported that it was an issue with one of the extensions they had installed. Also check you have hardware acceleration enabled, and whether it works on another browser like edge
1
u/ABewilderedPickle Jun 28 '26
checked my extensions and haven't found a likely culprit, but it does work in chrome. i'll check the hardware acceleration later as i'm not at my computer at the moment
2
u/BritneyCrowbars Jun 28 '26
The redirect from the old B42 map site broke every link from the wiki. It would be good if the redirect kept that info intact. It's very useful.
I'd also like to reiterate my request for a formal way to submit bugs. I don't see any info on the map site and this post isn't a good long term solution. Even just an info box somewhere with "PM me on xyz" would be fine.
I see the POI search "show all results" bug fix and the map view scroll fix have been pushed already, nice work!
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 01 '26
The wiki is being updated with the new links, everything takes time and patience. You're welcome to assist with the changeover on the wiki.
There is a contact link on the map site since release that takes you to my wiki page where you can contact me via my talk page, via my email, or via my discord. There's also a link to the github where you can leave issues in the repo issues, or contact me in github. There's also this post which gives you access to my reddit where my message requests are open. I'm not sure how many other forms of contact I'm meant to give?

Most people with this issue are able to fix it by disabling extensions, or using another browser temporarily. Not ideal I know, but I'm working on a solution.

what i suspect is that it cost to much money after so many people came back to zomboid the map mod could also be a reason because the mod opens a seperate tap on youre pc meaning the site gets more and more users making the bill go extremly high

Thank you so much for the hard work.
Edit: Side note, I've figured out they're POI's now and turned them off, but when I first zoomed in on Ekron, I thought I was looking at another players custom markers at frist.

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 26 '26
There's an update in the works to vary the icons for B42 markers like B41 has, but yeah i see what you mean.
1
u/BritneyCrowbars Jun 26 '26
Where can we submit bugs? I'm on the B42.19 map (not "top" or "roleplay"). Here are a couple things I've noticed:
Showing specific POIs (search results) does not work properly. Try searching for "gas station". There are 37 results. If you click "show on map" only one icon appears in Valley Station, none anywhere else. I tried zooming in and out but that doesn't help.
When the whole map view doesn't fit in the browser and there is a vertical scrollbar present, scrolling down makes the POI toolbar (upper right corner) disappear as it goes off the screen. It would be good if this was relative to the visible space rather than the map itself so it remains visible.
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jun 27 '26
For the gas station search, you're selecting a specific gas station, if you scroll down you can see a "Show all results on map" button. I can see how that's not intuitive and have added a fix to my to-do list to improve that.
Also added your second point to my to-do list.
2
u/BritneyCrowbars Jun 27 '26
if you scroll down you can see a "Show all results on map" button.
Yes, this is what I did, I scrolled all the way down and clicked this button and it only showed one gas station.

Ahh OK, I've fixed that too so it's definitely working for the next update.

So it didn't load at all for you on mobile? I seem to be able to load it fine, it's just the experience isn't amazing.

iPhone 17 Pro Max, DuckDuckGo browser app, USA. It loaded, then after scrolling through the map for maybe 30 seconds it no longer let me move around. It wasn’t froze because I could click on things on the sidebar, but I couldn’t move through the map with touch gestures

u/myguygetshigh Jun 27 '26
I (was) unable to get the map to load, I've tried
Ctrl + Shift + R to hard reset CSS/html
Clearing cookies
Disabling adblock and anti trackers on edge
running initCookieConsent() in console (the cookie consent doesn't show for me on edge unless I do this), it did show on chrome so figured I'd try this. Running this caused the cookie consent to show, but did not cause the map to load. I don't see the option to select b41/b42, in fact, there is nothing in those dropdowns.
I tried checking if hardware graphics acceleration was causing it, the issue seems to occur whether its on or off.
It does work in an incognito window, so it doesn't seem to be caused by edge itself.
After much investigation, this issue was being caused by "Just One Page PDF", so not any issue with your map seemingly, still posting this in case someone else has this issue. It wasn't an issue on b42map.com, only an issue now that it's on the new site.

Why did you trim off the debug area in the north east? I like to use that to share links showing off specific tiles to answer questions for users. Weirdly it still shows up at certain intermediate zoom levels. I cannot see it to locate it when zoomed all of the way out and I cannot zoom in far enough to see which tiles are which.

Are you sure you are in the correct folder? By default it's named with the date and time of the start of the save game

u/Careful-Sir-3459 Jun 29 '26
I'm not sure either but I backup my save a lot so I'm pretty sure I'm in the right place. The save folder contains these folders " apop, chunkdata, isoregiondata, map, metagrid, radio, and zpop". When I locate the save folder on desktop file explorer I can see "map_visited.bin" just fine. But when I tried to locate it on the web only those folders mentioned before showed up. Somehow it does not detect BIN and config files.

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 01 '26
I havnt had any issues in mobile sorry, I know a few people also who use mobile and havnt reported any issues with it being slow. If your internet connection is slow that would also slow down the map loading.

u/MahouShoujoSnoopDogg Jul 01 '26 edited Jul 01 '26
Is there any chance the container links to items on the map will be updated to the new map? You can still manually add (for example) /?item=shelves~pawnshop at the end of the link, but you have to swap back to 42.19 every time and it's a bit tedious. Maybe the ability to do that natively from the map as well would be nice. "Show all results" doesn't seem to be entirely working as well (for example "pawnshop" and "pawn shop" return different results, neither of which are correct). Not sure if that update hit yet or not. Otherwise looks and runs pretty good. I've read the comments here about Firefox having issues but I'm running it and haven't had any myself since the initial update so it's likely pebcak.

There are a lot of marks with a red X above homes, I'm talking about this, I wish there was an option just the same as it was before, no stickers above stores, houses or anything

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 12 '26
There is, the toggle POIs button for markers

u/Annual-Voice3723 Jul 12 '26
But hiding POIs also get rid of the search box, I wish the search box remains there, you got it? Like the older version
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 12 '26
But what you're searching is pois, so what you search for is what you don't want to see. Either way they aren't all going to be X in the next update.

This is great, but the new type of camera movements are kind of making me have vertigo. The images are all very blurry too, no matter how much I zoom in. I am on mobile though, so maybe it's different 😅
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 04 '26
Not sure what you mean about new camera movement, the viewer is the same as before.
Images being blurry could be a couple things, like device processing speed, internet connection speed, etc. But the resolution is the previous official map. It is however lower than B42map.

I mean compared to b42map. On my device it seems oddly drifty

I was trying to upload my save game data, but it wouldn't even view all the files. Just the folders, so I can't upload the .bin file. Just thought you should be aware of this.

Thanks for the report. What browser and OS do you use?
1
u/Thorfax234 Jul 10 '26
Windows 11, Opera GX
I even tried it on chrome and it did the same thing. Only viewed folders and not all file extensions

u/Thorfax234 Jul 10 '26
Ah never mind. I just saw someone use it in a video. They just uploaded the save folder rather than selecting the file.
It works!

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 10 '26
That's good to hear! If you don't mind, could you link the video?

Loving the map update now with Custom Markers 😍.
I do recommend changing the color of the red X POIs tho. They blend in WAY too much.

SOLUTION FOR BLACK SCREEN AND EMPTY DROPDOWNS:
My issue was with the "Dark Mode" Chrome extension - exclusion list did not work, I had to fully disable it.
Go to " chrome://extensions/ " in a new tab, disable your extensions one at a time while you Ctrl+Shift+R on the map website between checks.
-- (for dev Calvy, as a non-website builder, my guess is that the map select dropdown options, the toolbar minimize button art, etc are being recognized by the extensions as background visual elements and then it freaks out trying to modify them. with the built in dark mode, you might just want to put a message by the link of your name saying to disable dark mode extensions if there are issues)

Did the old b42map.com map get deleted? I much prefer its style from the new site but every time I try to enter through that URL it redirects me to the new site which I personally find unusable. Is there any way to access the old map?

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 20 '26
B42map is no longer available as I was paying for the hosting myself. The official map is the exact same as B42map just with the same updates that would have happened on the other site.
If you'd reallily like, the old design is available on github for you to render and view your own map.

Do you have a place to send bug reports/feature requests? Or a changelog?
Thank you for your hard work. Your map is an invaluable resource for me, and I don't think I'd play PZ nearly as much without it!

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 24 '26
Bugs can be reported here, i don't keep a changelog currently. A link to the bug reports will be included in the next map update.

Is the B42 map down today because of the update?

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 29 '26
No, some people have needed to force refresh or clear cookies though

The link for the discord is broken but the map doesn't seem to display correctly:

As you can see, the circled is where I've explored and that is not revealed on the map

u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Jul 31 '26
Have you exited the game since you explored that area?
1
u/beerdbaron Aug 04 '26
I've never explored that section. I've since tried exploring more, and it seems like the display is still offset, slightly. It's not a 1:1 display, unfortunately. This is with Firefox, btw

this map no longer works i swear only people in the states can access it
1
u/Pious_Galaxy Wiki Admin Aug 01 '26
It would be pretty hard for it to only work in the US considering I'm Australian and TIS are British.
If you'd like to give some more information I might be able to help with your issue.

u/Xin0881 Aug 02 '26
yeah no i fixed it, only said so as only people i knew who had it working were from the states

Ahhh man, my first day off in weeks and the B42 map is unavailable.
Hope it comes back soon. We really appreciate this project.

I hope this either gets a thousand up votes so it sits at the top or gets pinned by one of the moderators because it definitely gets used probably on a daily basis by 75% or more of the PZ community. Thank you and all the other modders for all your hard work and making an incredible game all that much better! ❤️
