Massive overhaul with mods, help.

[Proximo]

I want to enhance my game with realistic and vanilla like mods, I couldnt find any modpack (that I could trust).
Im looking for mods that add lots of new content like new areas on map to explore,new vehicles,new dangers,weapons or overall overhaul that greatly extends vanilla features (could be even shaders or realistic textures).
It would be nice if mods were for b41, cause b42 is very unstable and has lots of bugs from my experiece.
No promises but I will try to reward kind soul that helps me, though I dont have much :I
Thanks in advance!

"new danger" doesn't sound like vanilla plus imo. So...

For weapon, Vanilla Firearms Expansion is probably the closest to the theme.

There are plenty of map mods that add a few buildings to preexisting towns, or add small hamlets somewhere around the map. You might want to look and pick one yourself. For bigger map expansion, Raven Creek is probably fan favorite. Though I personally like Eerie Country.

For new vehicles, Filibuster Rhyme's Used Cars and Autotsar's Bus are my personal favorites.

There's also small qol mods that I always recommend for b41: Better Sorting, Fuel Side Indicator, and Tidy-up Meister.

I could write a lot about this, but suffice it to say I went through the same evolution as you at some point and here's a link to my modlist (for Build 41) that achieved what you're talking about.

For the most part it fits in Vanilla style, except for mods like Brita's, the Ki5 Vehicles, and maybe the Vaccine ReMod (and some of the map mods). But at the same time, those vastly expand and enhance the Zomboid experience, so I would recommend them.

Thats more or less what I've been looking for, thank you

I've come across all these mods and I have to say that they are really good.

For map mods specifically, you can check out this video for some other great choices:

I gave all of them a try, some don't fit my taste but still great regardless.
