Any hope for 42?

One type of profession I would love to see in the game, that isn't listed is a Locksmith. They could have the ability to not only hotwire cars, open doors & windows without breaking locks, & open doors when even if the lock is broken.

If you were willing to revisit your decision and see you way to kits for b41, that'd be very appreciated!
Knoahty  [author] Jan 19 @ 6:10pm 
Great question! I did, but I figured since b42 was right around the corner* and was going to release a whole slew of new objects, I'd wait.

* this decision came well and long before b42's actual beta release so I'd be happy to revisit!
Hud Jan 19 @ 8:25am 
Thank you @Knoahty for your efforts! I'm still using B41 and I was wondering whether you'd settled on a kit balance you were happy with for the professions?

Is there a german translation?

Thanks for including Librarians.
We know stuff.
We know stuff that can help people on Zombie Apocalypse.
Knoahty  [author] Jan 10 @ 5:44pm 
I'll test it soon!

Is there a B42 update in the works yet?

@퐁퐁돼지아빠

By all means! Of course! Modding isn't about notoriety or monetary gain, it's about ultimately enhancing the gameplay of a game you enjoy :) Please, use anything you need, the entire code base as well as images are on my GitHub: https://github.com/tycrowe/pz-mods-dubs-profession-mod

Happy modding!

Dear Senior Modder,
I’m a newcomer to the world of modding, and I’m seeking to study and learn by referencing your mod. I’d like to know if I may use some of your images or assets as references for my work. If you prefer I don’t use them, please let me know. I have no intention of using your work without permission.
If you’ve already expressed such a wish and I missed it, I apologize for not noticing. Should I use your work in my mod, I will clearly credit it both within the mod files and on the description page.
I respect your work greatly and hope for your understanding. Thank you.
Knoahty  [author] Sep 30, 2024 @ 5:10pm 
Need more than just an all caps response @grelanez. Other mods or even a debug log would be great. I play with my buddies with over 80+ mods on our private server with this and it seems to work fine!
ElRolanie Sep 28, 2024 @ 12:34pm 
DOESNT WORK IN MULTI
ninjawizard Sep 28, 2024 @ 11:21am 
haha then wait for more than 1 year probaly :)
Knoahty  [author] Sep 19, 2024 @ 8:37am 
@Blood
Still works as of yesterday :) I'm still active but like most of the modding community, I'm not really looking to add new features until b42 drops.
Blood Sep 19, 2024 @ 7:59am 
Curious is this working? Looking for a Profession mod atm for abit more options.
Calf-Life: Opposing Horse Jan 25, 2024 @ 7:06am 
Does this mod work in a server that has been going on for a while?
Or will it restart it
Knoahty  [author] Jan 14, 2024 @ 10:21pm 
That wasn't really the intention of that profession @new player, I try to keep vanilla as much as possible here and not edit gameplay beyond basic starting stats! Otherwise, that would be way too much to balance.
Zed Jan 12, 2024 @ 9:24am 
Looking at the code there is nothing associated with serial killers that actually reduces stress from killing. :steamthumbsup:
🌴 Zunder 🌴 Aug 10, 2023 @ 4:43am 
Hi, I just posted an error of your mod in the 'Bug Reports/Balancing Concerns' discussion.
Thank you.
Knoahty  [author] Apr 22, 2023 @ 6:10am 
Glad it works, no problem!
LambVORTEX Apr 21, 2023 @ 11:48pm 
Oh it works, I'm thankful for going trough the trouble mate! Much love! :spiffo:

@偉大な VORTƎX

Hey! I didn't have an older version that didn't match the quality, so I figured out what was wrong with the current version of this mod and adding a mapping table that should support the legacy build. You can download it here: (https://github.com/tycrowe/pz-mods-dubs-profession-mod/releases/tag/pz%2Flegacy40-dpm%2Fv1.0.1)

Let me know if this helps!
LambVORTEX Apr 20, 2023 @ 10:48pm 
Quick test has been done and I can say with confidence that most professions seem to work. Some are bugged though, either being blank or giving traits that are positive, but are more or less negative.

If you want you can go trough the trouble of uploading the archived B40 version of this mod! It's just some professions that are iffed up/
LambVORTEX Apr 20, 2023 @ 10:35pm 
Aye aye sir, will check. Thanks for replying.
Knoahty  [author] Apr 20, 2023 @ 4:09pm 
@偉大な VORTƎX Nothing drastic changed with the API for 41 so this should still work with your version, even if the game warns you about version incompatibility.

If you do have problems, let me know. I think I can pull older versions of my mods.
LambVORTEX Apr 20, 2023 @ 11:58am 
Any archived B40 versions of this mod?
It Is Approaching Apr 19, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
Love the mod! one of my fav professions mod.
BroDimm Apr 13, 2023 @ 8:45pm 
Is there any spawn mod for this, say a doctor spawn in a clinic
Knoahty  [author] Apr 3, 2023 @ 1:26pm 
@aceofplagues

That's an awesome call-out! I had assumed that drills would be found along the Ohio River but after consulting with google, I think I'm mistaken!

I do take a lot of pride in insuring these professions are balanced to gameplay but also balanced to lore. I will make sure the next update includes contextual changes based on the region.

Thank you!
aceofplagues Apr 3, 2023 @ 10:18am 
I absolutely love this mod and the professions mostly fit great thank you for your work!

One little thing, 'Offshore Worker' should really be changed to something just like 'Drill Worker' because what am I doing in landlocked Kentucky? There is plenty of oil drilling in Kentucky but no ocean.

In general I think when adding more professions you should focus on how they feel in the setting just as meticulously as you have on balance (Just my opinion.) One thing that makes zomboid great is how grounded it feels in the setting.

Keep up the great work 🤍

You updated? HALLELUJAH! Do the occupations now display their' specifics on how they impact foraging? It's not a big deal if you haven't, it's just nice to have to know the exact effects on foraging. :praisesun:
Knoahty  [author] Feb 26, 2023 @ 6:43pm 
Just flavor, that would be really cool though!
Inked. Feb 26, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
Question, the helicopter pilot text says crash landing but I don't spawn with a crashed heli. Is this just a flavor text thing?
Knoahty  [author] Feb 19, 2023 @ 4:34pm 
@Odysseus Do you suspect it's this mod? I don't currently add military clothing to any military profession provided by this mod.
Odysseus Feb 19, 2023 @ 9:26am 
I keep spawning with military equipment that conflicts with the sharks military improvement mod, does anyone know why this is?
Dead Sprint Diver Jan 27, 2023 @ 2:17pm 
can the Entrepreneur bonus work on modded skills such as Scavenging and Glass working, etc?
urbestmistake17 Jan 2, 2023 @ 1:36pm 
so it says that my character isnt able to save due to DPM, is there a way to fix this?
Knoahty  [author] Nov 27, 2022 @ 8:58am 
Still works with most recent update! And nope, not the same guy!
Mind The Spectrum Nov 23, 2022 @ 5:45pm 
Does this still work even though its ages since last update? Assume you're the same Dubs from the rimworld mods btw?
Belgium boi Nov 4, 2022 @ 12:40pm 
I can make saul goodman now
ChetTheCat Oct 2, 2022 @ 6:20pm 
@Dubpub very interesting, thanks for clearing that up!
Knoahty  [author] Oct 2, 2022 @ 3:43pm 
@LargestIronEverConcieved and @Chet - very fair, Entrepreneur is a fun one. At the start of creating a new character with the Entrepreneur profession, three traits are randomly selected and given a 2.5 multiplier to a max level of level 2.

That is to say, if you select Entrepreneur, the game will pick three of the nine traits and give you a 2.5x multiplier :) Hope this helps! I'll update the description with examples. But it's entirely random what type of "Entrepreneur" you will be.
LargestIronEverConcieved Oct 1, 2022 @ 5:40pm 
What does Entrepreneur do? Please answer, two people already asked
ChetTheCat Sep 30, 2022 @ 10:03am 
What does the profession Entrepreneur do? It doesn't really explain what it does.
Knoahty  [author] Sep 13, 2022 @ 7:34am 
@Luduaver - I'll reupload it to my repo!
Luduaver Sep 12, 2022 @ 2:29pm 
Is there a link to GitHub?
I would like to create the translation for PTBR!
Nymåne Aug 16, 2022 @ 7:59am 
Lo he traducido al español, aunque he omitido algunas profesiones que estaban repetidas, por lo que no aparecerán. Podéis descargar la traducción aquí:
