The Top 10 Project Zomboid Mods 2024

[Music] hello there so I have seen Whispers in the comments of people asking what mods I use in my playthroughs so today my good Survivor We are going through the 10 mods that I like to use in almost every playthrough that I do these are just my personal choices that I feel will fit a variety of play Styles and is my opinion of which mods will help you if there are different mods that you enjoy why not pop them in the comments so other survivors can expand on their Horizons I try to keep my mods as immersive as I can with a few exceptions if you stick around until the end there is a cheeky honorable mention that I have a feeling that you will enjoy that said let us begin first up on the list is an absolute Gem of a mod called Common Sense by Braven as the name suggests Common Sense adds things that by rights should be in the base game among some of the features that it includes are allowing crowbars to pry open doors garages windows and even vehicle trunks to make this a bit more balanced it's influenced by your strength level your panic and your current profession naturally burglar would have a higher chance to pry open a door no surprises there the mod also highlights vehicle parts to show their current condition which helps a ton when you accidentally hug a tree on a road trip and can check at a glance how damaged your engine is for example everything can be checked at a glance which is a huge quality of life Improvement in of itself allows you to open canned food with Sharp Tools instead of just can openers you know if you're unlucky enough to find one gives more versatility to spear crafting allowing you to craft Spears with brooms and mops and even allowing you to use ropes sheets and more to attach items onto them for the tailor out there you can rip clothing using a sharp tool Like a Knife instead of wearing out your valuable Scissors because as the mod says it just makes sense if you are someone who generally enjoys playing vanilla this mod ads and features that will make your life a little bit easier but won't drastically change your experience enough to make you feel like you're playing a moded game Auto are motor club and well most of ibr Us's mods add a ton of Versatility into your playthrough for the record the entire time I use this mod I refer to it as autostar so I guess today I learned something it adds a ton of transport options from motorbikes in case you wanted to role play Daryl from The Walking dead quad bikes and even jet skis I've always wondered why water transport isn't a thing in the base game despite having a substantial dock in Louisville and being right next to a massive River the base cars in the game are great sure and there are quite a few options to suit your needs but even in the '90s surely there should be motorbikes one of the other autosar mods autosar atelia bus tuning also adds in buses into the game if you enjoy the nematic play style these bus are able to be kitted out into the Ultimate Zombie mowing machine with a metric ton of storage space to boot so that you would never have to settle down in one location again this next mod is so tiny but add something that makes your life infinitely easier has been read by Pepe Pepe pale I never get tired of saying that name tells you which books have been read have not been read or have been read halfway if you like me you tend to forget which skill books you have stashed in your base storage so so you just end up grabbing pretty much every skill book you can find just in case this mod helps you see at a glance which ones you actually need so it's useful for not filling up your inventory with unnecessary skill books when out and about next up is a mod that I added to my playthroughs recently and well I've never looked back simple lockpicking by meepa the great 99 adds a realism friendly-ish ability to pick locks using a paperclip and a screwdriver some may feel this is a bit cheesy as every character can essentially lock pick if you feel it's a bit too strong you can turn up the chance to fail the lockpicking in the sandbox options to make it a bit more balanced it works on most doors and the best part it works on vehicles too at least now we have a use for all those random paper clips that we collect during our travels next up is a mod that is a fantastic option for both newer players and experienced veterans alike weapon condition indicator by noctus Falco allows you to see the current condition of weapons in your hot bar and takes out the hassle of having to go into your inventory each time to check if your weapon is at its breaking point just a heads up that it does require mod options so don't forget to subscribe to that one before picking this up it also adds the option of seeing how much ammo is in your current gun magazine how long the batteries will last in your flashlight and the best part it's fully customizable so if you feel these little tidbits of information are too overpowered you can customize it in any way that that you see fit such a simple quality of life Improvement that goes a long way especially when you're kneed deep in combat and you need to quickly swap out to another weapon instead of finding out the tough way that you're about to be weaponless in the vanilla game items like fireman's clothes bulletproof vests and shoes cannot be repaired much to the dismay of many survivors out there this makes it challenging because you have to keep hunting for more and more of these to replace the ones that you're wearing the mod repair any clothes by Johnny Dollar does exactly as it says on the tin it enables you to repair them so you don't have to keep searching for new clothing pieces this extends to the rarer clothing pieces that also cannot be repaired for those of you wondering if it works with modded clothing it does indeed so the clothing world is your oyster to repair pretty solid mod that has accompanied me on almost every playthrough and has helped Satisfy My Fashion Easter craving on more than one occasion quality of life marked for my fellow loot goblins out there better sorting by chit's crazy replaces the item category tags with simpler and easier to see categories to make loot management a breeze and is if I may say one of my personal favorites instead of being faced with vague item tags like materials weapons and more the mod breaks it down into skill specific items instead of being labeled as a material thread receives the crafting tailoring tag Firearms receive the weapon firearm tag and melee weapons receive the weapon melee tag clothing is further broken down into accessories headwear and more these small tag changes help you manage your loot crates better instead of just dumping everything into random crates or spending ages painstakingly sorting items into various crates it's a worthwhile consideration that is also realism friendly so if you generally enjoy playing with little to no mods this one is sure to sneak its way into your mod list the trade system in Project Z boid is quite in depth but lacks a few key trades that give love to some skills if you thought that there were enough trades to pick from I have got some news for you enter more trades created by hypnot Toons F deck and Music Maniac this mod is popular amongst other content creators who enjoy doing challenge-based playthroughs like the amputee challenge or starting with a broken leg it adds more positive trade options that are on the cheaper side of the spectrum and actually provide useful benefits to your build despite only costing between 1 to 3 points these new additions allow you to fill up those last few remaining points with traits that would actually be worthwhile for your playthrough aside from the wealth of positive traits that it provides it also gives some additional negative traits for those of you who are looking for a novel challenge for your next playthrough now this mod is one that has been with me from the start of my modded playthrough journey and I have never looked back proximity inventory by MX allows you to see the contents of every container around you in one menu it removes the pain of having to sift through 20 crates to find that one tube of wood glue or 40 zombie corpses to find the one clothing item that you need while not a mod that I would consider strictly necessary in a playthrough it does make looting a lot less tedious and makes loot runs smoother allowing you to loot everything in a radius from one menu using the mod options mod you can customize it to show only zombie corpses or every container all in all a must have for all you hoarders out there this one is not a mod that I would consider a must have for every playthrough but boy has it been helpful the mod better Flashlight by inob Deus I hope I didn't butcher that name adds 18 different flashlights into the game all with varying levels of intensity or some variety the best part of this mod is that you can place them on your tool belt instead of in your hand freeing you up to use other items if you don't want to bind a flashlight onto your tool belt it adds the option to get a neat mining helmet which combines the utility of having a light with head protection nice for those of us who enjoy heading out on nighttime missions this one is a must have in my opinion unfortunately your friends cannot see the beam from your flashlight if it's on your belt but that is a game issue according to the mod author you can get around this by equipping it in your hand which is a small price to pay when some of the flashlights in this mod essentially have the power of a small son as an honorable mention this one is great for leveling one of our most click intensive skills the one and only tailoring we have all felt how mind-numbing the process can be so I would like to formly introduce you to the auto Sewing Mod by churnable it allows you to train tailoring with a single click instead of having to spend ages adding and removing Patches from clothing just to gain one level great for avoiding carpel tunnels and saving a few brain cells but this one comes down to personal preference gather a bunch of materials click once and go make yourself a cup of coffee while the mod does the work for you that's it for some of the mods that I feel will help you without breaking your immersion too much leave your thoughts in the comments below if you found any of these useful or mods that you consider a must have in your playthroughs thank you for watching Survivor if you
