Also, I missed like 20 shots with my AR-15 when I was shooting at a skeleton, those guys are impossible to hit.

Yeah, well, they're not supposed to be hit. Just whack them with a hammer, if you're a non-melee guy, you'll get hurt a bit, but at least you won't waste ammo.

Rifle butts work well too.

Rifles are fairly slow weapons to hit with though, the extendable baton however, THAT is fast

All of the guns suck for melee, I always swap to a better weapon if I can. A crowbar works well in a pinch, I always carry one to open doors anyway. Hammers are even better if you're carrying one of those.

Released a little update for my mod fixing some glitches.

Out of curiosity, anyone here playing my mod? Making it mostly to play myself, but it'd be fun to see how many others are playing it

. . . .I was actually waiting for the next "release" that had your mod merged. Oh, and heads version still doesnt have the Z menu.

[Paul]

Mine has all of Whales' latest stuff in it, it isn't based on Headswe's latest release.

You should put a link on the fan forums too.

[FunctionZero]

You also have me using your mod.
My estimation, though? Around 10 people's using it.

Uhh, you know he did that, right?

Best run yet it's 2:59 on day 2.  I got a shovel a machete, a handgun I have yet to use, and 4 skill in both melee and cutting weapons.  Plenty of food, 3 hotplates, 5 flashlights, a defensive position(I.E. A boarded up house surrounded by pits 3 deep on all sides) a chainsaw, 3 plastic bottles full of gas, and a kill list a mile long.

Shovels are cheap as hell though, dig a pit in 2 seconds big enough to severely harm anything and slow it long enough to get 6 machete swings in.  If something comes after me while I'm scavenging I just dig a pit in it's general direction wait for it to fall in and then hack at it with my machete or chainsaw til it's dead.

Only things I encountered so far that give me any difficulty at all are shockers boomers and spitters.  And even those just mean I have to think about my positioning a bit before digging a hole and watching them fall in as they chase me around a corner or something.  I hear pits will be nerfed soon, that is good.

Watch now that I said something, some hulk or some other horrible thing I only ever heard about busts through my wall in the middle of the night and punches my face through my brain while offering flavored sugar water.

I'm avoiding you're mod since you split character creation. Everything else looks wonderful.

Ditto, for the same reasons.

[Jacob/Lee]

Yeah, I think it's funny you can dig a pit deep enough to almost kill you in less than half a minute.

There seriously needs to be a way to jump/climb through a pit, just walking off the edge and almost getting killed while you're on a stroll is just weird.

[Aklyon]

Any reason why about the character split?

I've been using it for the stacking, Paul.

[BurnedToast]

Well, guy #3 died and I'm not really sure how.

I picked up a zombie corpse to move it out of the doorway so I could shut the door and bam - instant gameover screen. I guess it was too heavy and it slowed me down so much a zombie ate me while I was lifting, but that seems a little silly.

it's a shame because I was doing damn good, I had a huge stockpile of food, a whole bunch of ammo, and a bunch of books to read through.

I like starting with no skills. It makes the first day or two a nice mad scramble before you can get settled down and looking for projects.

Make a character in the previous version, drop items, transfer over to new version, map teleport to town, wish back items?

Or just memory edit the points you wanted to switch.
