@devs: I know this is going to be a real stupid question...

Hi.

I love this game but I am wondering if there is a way to convert the steam version over to GOG, meaning I would no longer have it under steam, but have it for GOG only?

Cheers. :)

Unfortunately, no.
The version you have can be played without Steam too, though, in case you're just after a DRM free copy.

To do so, open the ProjectZomboid**.bat file with a text editor and change

-Dzomboid.steam=1

to

-Dzomboid.steam=0

how?

Oh how I wish more games were as "tweakable" as PZ. Bless you kind people. :)

you should connect your account with gog ;)
some games are only available for a short period of time but project zomboid was in it a few times

I bought PZ on GoG and now i regret it. There's no workshop on GoG and most of mods are steam's workshop only. And the multi on GoG is dead...
In addition to this, update are very very late on GoG, by exemple there's no beta then no cars.
No mods, no multi, i was bored very quickly. Really i dont recommend to buy this game on GoG.
Maybe later when the devs will bring more matter i will buy it again on Steam.

The whole point of GOG is that you own a copy of the game, and Not rent it which you do on steam.

I am working on taking every game I own for steam (if sold on GOG), and replacing it with GOG versions.

I am sick to death of renting things I pay full price for.

Yeah, I'm aware of this, and I check several times every day.

Thanks for mentioning this.

Feel free to add me on Steam. I might be able to help you out.

I totally agree with you and i'm myself in the same steps, unfortunately the service dispensed by GoG is not yet equivalent of what Steam can offer to us.
By exemple, I played Stronghold Crusader with friends using my GoG version, but now it's impossible because this old game get patch on Steam...not with GoG.

Personally i will never buy again multiplayer (or mods) focused game on GoG anymore.
Otherwise, nothing better than games that you own really.

Bougth the game on GOG, too. Played v.33.xx until a few days ago. Now i´ve got v.37.xx, finally.
Like the posters before me said: i pay for a game so i want to own my copy of it. The downside of GOG are the late updates and no workshop.

On the other hand there´s some old games that just won´t run on a modern pc - that´s where GOG provides working ones (e.g. System Shock 2) .

So i buy new games on Steam, old (windows syst.) ones at GOG and Dos-games (like e.g. Mad TV) are mostly abandon ware and work perfectly with DosBox.
