3D Isometric is what we need actually

Post image

The current work on ViewPoint is truly fantastic, and this progress makes me genuinely happy.

Ever since I started playing with the isometric module, neither TPS (third-person) nor FPS (first-person) perspectives satisfy me anymore. This is exactly what we need, though it still requires a bit more refinement.

When entering a new chunk, sometimes walls that should be hidden remain visible, or areas that ought to be in view stay obscured—I’ve been bitten by zombies a few times because of this.

Furthermore, in the vanilla version, you can see inside buildings when looking through windows, but that isn't possible in ViewPoint’s isometric mode.

Also, interacting with shelves, cabinets, and crates is quite difficult. Additionally, when using the "place" command, there’s no way to see exactly where an item is being positioned.

Aside from these issues, after playing this way, going back to vanilla Zomboid is simply out of the question for me. The modders have truly taken this game to a much better place than the original developers ever did.

Mods will delete anything fun and creative so be careful posting here.

Is it time to make a different subreddit?

I wish. This subreddit has shown how awful it is. If it’s a mod the moderators don’t like they’ll just decide you’re not allowed to ever post it. Despite letting other mods spam out their content all the time.

It’s some serious bias going on

That’s not entirely true though is it? They take down AI generated silliness and they’ve said in a post beforehand that spam of a certain mod won’t be allowed.
