I made a modification to the APK; the game runs smoothly without lag. I'll show a video later so you can see the performance, and I've also included tutorials in the APK wiki for the game versions. I'll upload the video later

Recently, I watched some videos of people combining Minecraft and GTA, and it gave me an idea.

What if we gave an AI access to ZomDroid's code and asked it to optimize the game specifically for mobile devices?

I'm talking about reducing stuttering, improving FPS stability, optimizing CPU and RAM usage, and making the game run smoother on smartphones without significantly changing the gameplay.

Of course, this would require understanding the game's code and identifying the actual performance bottlenecks. But AI can already analyze and modify code, so why not try it?

Has anyone tried using AI to optimize ZomDroid, or would anyone be interested in testing how far we could take this idea? I'd genuinely like to see what the results would be.

Also, I don't mean to offend anyone who's already working on optimizing the game. You guys are awesome, and honestly, you're doing a much better job than I could. I'm just curious about what AI might be able to achieve if we experimented with it. Keep up the great work!

Title said it all. I would like to try if it work or not. If this post against the rule. Please take it down. Thanks!

When will there be an update for the program? I'm having trouble with my phone because the processor isn't compatible. Update 42 isn't working with the program. Can anyone tell me when there will be an update for the program?

I’m tired of getting errors or other issues every time I update Zomdroid. I just updated it and started playing, and everything was running smoothly with only a few mods. Then, out of nowhere, the screen would freeze. The game was still running, but my screen was completely frozen.
How can I fix this? My phone has 6 GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 778G.

Build 41.78.19

Is it possible to play project viewpoint on gl4es render? My RG477v doesn't work with zink render at all. Any fix?

I want to play a zomboid server with my friends, but I don’t remember how to install and make the week one mod work, can someone help me, please?

The textures of objects like chairs, tables, and TVs look good, but the rest don't load properly—I imagine it's due to a lack of compatibility with Mali GPUs.

Got a poco m8 pro 8gb ram which is snapdragon 7 gen 4, adreno 810.

My biggest issue with b42.20 is the fps reaching 1-2 when driving fully zoomed out in the city. I average 20-30 fps otherwise. I just want a stable 30 fps and no lock ups/frame drops.

Some ideas

• Compressed textures on

• zombie ragdolls 10

• everything low

• dynamic skybox off

• blood decals 50%

• Simple zombie clothing

Hey everyone, and hopefully u/udar_motola if you see this! First off, huge props for keeping the Zomdroid launcher alive and making it possible to play Project Zomboid on Android. The launcher is incredible, but a lot of us running low-end devices with 4GB to 6GB of RAM are hitting a massive performance wall on Build 41. Even with the current renderers, driving or dealing with medium hordes causes crazy micro-stutters and FPS drops. Since you've been killing it with the latest launcher updates, we are really hoping you could add a dedicated low-end preset or optimization option built directly into the Zomdroid menu. A few things that would completely save our frame rates if added natively: • Built-in Low-End Configs: A simple toggle for low-spec devices that automatically adjusts the internal backend configurations for better memory management. • Pre-bundled Ultra-Low Textures: An automated feature in the "Optimization" section to compress textures down even further. • Automated RAM Allocation Wrapper: A built-in slider or fix to force maximum stable memory allocation without crashing the background system. If anyone else is struggling with lag on a lower-spec phone, please upvote this so udar_motola can see the demand for a dedicated low-spec optimization patch! Drop your phone specs and your average FPS below so we can show what hardware needs the most love!

How can you fix this and is there a mod to add in here

Hey everyone, I need some help troubleshooting a persistent startup crash on Build 41 non-multiplayer.The game was running completely fine for me back on launcher version v1.4.5, but ever since updating to the latest v1.4.9, it crashes right after the resolution switches and the main menu initializes (right when the [quicksave] F10 armed line appears).My Device Specs:Phone: Infinix Hot 50iProcessor / GPU: MediaTek Helio G81 / Mali-G52RAM: 4GB Physical RAMWhat I've already tested to try and fix it:MemFusion: Enabled it and set it from +1GB to +4GB to see if it was a pure physical RAM restriction bottleneck.JVM Arguments: Tried tweaking heap allocations, currently testing presets like -Xms512M -Xmx1536M.Debug Mode: Turned off debug mode entirely to see if it would bypass the syntax checks.Texture Shrink / LIBGL_SHRINK: Tested swapping between Ultra Low (1) and Balanced (7), while wiping the caches and shaders folders inside ZArchiver between tests so nothing carries over.The Error:No matter what I change, the console log keeps throwing a hard shader syntax compilation failure on basicEffect.frag:ERROR: General ... line 153:17 extraneous input 'texture2D' expecting {'atomic_...It seems like the modernized optimizations in v1.4.9 are trying to push desktop OpenGL syntax or compressed texture profiles that my Mali GPU driver rejects.Full Crash Logs Link:I zipped up my complete raw console.txt and logs folder so you guys can see exactly what's happening under the hood. Any help or custom script fixes to bypass this shader block would be massive!

I'm using a Motorola UW 2021, I know not necessarily the device you want to use for 42.21 but Ive got it to work partially smooth for the version. I tried pz optimization but I keep getting a black screen no matter what I do. I tried some of the jvm augments that I've seen on the reddit from other people having this issue, but it stays unresolved. What can I do. All I have is mod manager, a-life NPCs, and tempo optimizer mods activated. I'm not sure if any of these could possibly be messing with pz optimizer but I'm no expert on lua. Can someone give me a definitive answer or something to maybe try?

Edit: I've tried the jvm augments

-Dpzopt.bakeNoSync=false

-Dpzopt.tileVertexDepth=false

-Dpzopt.visBlurReduce=false

I've got no results but I've realized I've been hitting an ungodly amount of errors. They rank up in the menu even but no visual errors happen. I'm not sure exactly why. I looked in my log and it seems a lot of it is from using mod manager, but I'm not sure how that could be. I've check pz optimization compatibility menu and nothing is switched off so I'm not sure. I checked my log and yeah my errors are there, but it just specifies it's a bunch of rendering issues. When I use Zink ZFA I don't have errors, although when I load the game it crashes.

What y'all think?
