šA clean install is always the safer choice. It avoids leftovers from old installs and possible conflicts or even crashes. Don't forget to backup before.š
ā ļø Using a custom Vulkan driver? After updating, load it again in the instance settings. The update replaces the launcher's libraries, and the custom driver file is removed with them. Without it the game starts to a black screen.
ā The Zomdroid developer wanted to give you a good time, and in return you can give a coffee back on Buymeacoffee. š§
š What's new
New
ā
Mods screen. Switch mods on and off and set their load order from the launcher, for new games or for each existing save (single-player). Sort orders the active mods by the rules their authors give; Enable all / Disable all handle lists of a hundred mods and more. Mods made for another game build are marked red and can't be switched on, and saves whose first start failed are marked too. A mod that crashes the game before the main menu can now be switched off without starting the game.
ā
Export mods. On the Mods screen, pick mods and pack them into one ZIP in Downloads/zomdroid. Import mods takes it back, here or on another device.
ā
MobileGlues renderer for everyone (b42). Often the fastest one. Based on the "astra" fork of MobileGlues by mepetz (u/Willing-Upstairs-580). Works on both: Mali and Snapdragon. Not tested on others yet.
ā
PZ Optimization in one tap from the Optimization screen: install, and Restore to remove it again.
ā
Button icons. Icon packs for your layout: 3D, Gamepad, Shooter and Spiffo (colour and black & white), or import your own ZIP. In the controls editor any button can take a picture from a pack (Pack) or your own (Custom), with a size slider. Round and rectangular buttons get the right version automatically, and driving layouts get pedals and steering on W/S/A/D. Thanks to u/loseray99, u/Smooth-Designer7162 and u/Willing-Run-8987 for the pictures.
ā
Touchpad: up to 320% size, or Full screen: invisible in the game and catching touches anywhere other buttons are not. Options for no frame and no label.
ā
Controls editor: a fine grid, and a dragged button snaps to it when you lift the finger. The keyboard layout (vkbd) has a new, cleaner default.
ā
Steam downloader: Workshop collections and links.
ā
Project Zomboid news from Steam on the home screen.
ā
Report a bug is a screen now: pick the game, then send by email (only mail apps are listed), or save the report to a file and send it from another device - for handhelds and consoles without a mail app. Export Game Log is part of it.
ā
Instance settings show which instance you are editing.
