I don't fully understand how this mod works.
Do you to read the previous skill book for the lvl's you already have or the skill book to gain the multiplier for the next lvls ?

Hah, what? This looks amazing! I've been grumbling for weeks about how it feels kind of crappy to wind up levelling up a skill when you don't have the skill book, because you can't round out your theoretical education later to get the benefits you missed out on. I'd understand if even half of the benefit was permanently lost, but the default way the game works just feels crazy.

Can you add this mod after starting playthrough or need a fresh run for mod to be safe and not corrupt save?

works with hacking mod?

Goated mod

Is there a way of making it work with the Skill Book Expansion mod?

When I have both installed, I get the missed XP for the new skills, nimble, sneak etc but not for the existing skills like carpentry.

This seems to generate a ton of errors when paired with more traits mod, specifically with 'Gym-goer' trait when you do push ups

It is.

42.9 compatible?

I agree with @the penar snipper guy. My blue skill bar it just past lvl 8. I hit lvl 4 and read book 3. I didn't get to lvl 6 I got to lvl5 -2500 out of 3000 xp. I can't read lvl 4. It won't let me even though the grey xp is at lvl 6. The math isn't adding up correctly. (at least in bar graph math)

Didnt seem to do anything? it kept saying the book was obsolete and only gave like 40 xp even though the blue bar was at lvl 6 and my characters is at lvl 4

@pimatstudio @JedaiGames after a few crashes (unstable build is :roflanAngry:) mod was successfully updated (just change size and color of skillbar lol) to b42 :spiffo:
pimat.studio Feb 13 @ 1:57am 
hahaha ;) gr8
Inrek_Fox Feb 13 @ 1:17am 
Heh. Thanks for the answer. Really love your mod :3
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Feb 13 @ 1:15am 
@JedaiGames nope, just uploaded polish translation. but b42 will work today I think
Inrek_Fox Feb 13 @ 1:12am 
Wait, so. You updated it?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Feb 13 @ 12:35am 
why did u tell me this.. now I'm downloading b42 and will update mod for it. and after it I WANNA UPDATE ALL MY MODS TO B42 COS WHY NOT IF I ALREADY DOWNLOADED IT. u r a monster :roflanCry:
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Feb 13 @ 12:04am 
@pimatstudio hi there! I even didn't test it for b42 cos I'm waiting stable build with multiplayer and etc but if u tested and single problem is size of bar then I probably can do it for unstable. I'll take a look this week
pimat.studio Feb 12 @ 9:46pm 
So it still hasn't been ported to B42 then? I forced it in and in its core, the functionality of the mod is intact. The graphic representation (the dark blue placeholder for exp to be recovered) is misaligned due to UI changes (the bars are now more tiny than they were in B41) but other than that, it's perfectly usable.

I'm not sure what the author of the mod is up to, acutally. Maybe I'm missing some crucial bit of info, after all I'm just a subscriber, but I'm curious what''s holding the update/port back?
Skarwind Feb 4 @ 8:42pm 
Thank you for this. The game just seems extremely excessive about xp... I don't mind grinding or earning but dang was it bad trying to do carpentry....
Davetiger Jan 26 @ 12:03am 
That's great that you are still supporting I was not looking forward to going back to the "find the book don't stab the zombie until you have the book method of play lol
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Jan 25 @ 1:51pm 
will try to update for b42 on next week
Davetiger Jan 23 @ 5:30pm

@Tw1ce привет) честно говоря в моде и так много головняка было, поэтому не особо хочется разбираться ещё в таком В ДАННЫЙ МОМЕНТ. я пофикшу это, когда буду мод под b42 обновлять + кажется, что ошибка не прям критичная?

Привет! Присоединяюсь и также напоминаю о неверном начислении опыта в итоге, который расписывали ниже.
V.A.Nekrasov Jan 17 @ 7:25am 
Please accept friend request, want to talk about errors in log(its about mods compability)

Пожалуйста, прими заявку в друзья, поговорить про ошибки в логах(конкретно про совместимость двух модов)
JimmyAgent007 Jan 6 @ 12:16pm 
I discovered this mod a month before b42, I wish I knew about it sooner. Would have made past games SOOOO much better lol

Take your time and keep up the good work!
Proxno Dec 28, 2024 @ 9:30pm 
After having had this one in my mod list for ~ a year, it is so hard to play without.
So glad to hear you are planning to update it - thank you!

Hey I get it, as long as there will be an update it is fine! But thanks for taking care of it!
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Dec 24, 2024 @ 8:34pm 
I'll update it for b42 asap. rn have no time for it :roflanCry:
Kride500 Dec 24, 2024 @ 6:37pm 
God I need this mod for B42 more than ever. Now that skill books are rarer and there are much more skill books in the pool
Weed Jesus of Nazurblunt Dec 22, 2024 @ 1:03pm 
build 42
rafael_ssj_yes Dec 21, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
Will this be updated to b42?

Is there a way to add compatibility with xp recovery journal mod?

On default settings it ignores xp acquired from watching TV shows and VHS tapes, but it seems like this mod have it's own xp source. So if you get 50 xp from tv, then read a book, it will result in 50 xp added from reading but will count as "recoverable" by xp journal.

Sorry if description is not clear enough.
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] Jul 24, 2024 @ 6:52am 
@palapapa yep, you can just get the exp without reading the books and then read them later, getting all the exp you should have gotten if you had read the books beforehand
palapapa Jul 22, 2024 @ 7:29pm 
So basically it's as if you have gained the maximum possible multiplier for each level before gaining any XP?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] May 24, 2024 @ 2:13pm 
@Tw1ce hmm, strange. I tested it thoroughly but tbh all tests were conducted through code (just givings the exp) and they were all successful. I currently don't have much time for pz but I will try to look into it later. I really hope you're mistaken xddd. thx for this info :spiffo:
ОКУНЬ/КАРАСЬ May 23, 2024 @ 10:47am 
-> continue of prev. comment ->

Current mod also has wrong calculations when paired with XP Tweaker mod and the last one affects some multipliers of skills that have books, maybe a reason is same, will be nice if it will be fixed too.

I hope it's clear, my Eng is bad, thatnks in advance, it's must have mod!)
