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.

I didn’t realise Week One was AI trash and caused arguments in every post like this does?

What does using ai tools have to do with anything lmao? The mod functions and it’s great. It’s also by far the most popular Zomboid mod there is right now

It’s only this subreddit that’s being cry baby’s about this. Search Zomboid on YouTube and every new video with 200-500k plus views is project viewpoint with nothing but praise. Everyone outside of this very tiny subreddit loves the mod. You guys are just being contrarians for the sake of being victims

It is against the rules, that’s what it has to do with it lmao. Nobody is forcing anybody to stay here, if you don’t like the rules regarding AI then you can happily leave!

Even the indie stone have said they won’t ban or remove ai generated mods from the workshop or discussion and that ai isn’t going anywhere.

The only people against this are the subreddit mods lmao.

It seems more like a small minority have taken over the subreddit against even what the developers want, to enforce their anti ai propaganda really. I really won’t leave until I’m banned and I hope even more people keep posting the viewpoint mod until the censorship ends

This isn’t their sub. Again, if you dislike the rules, just leave. If I went over to a pro-AI sub and slated AI, I’d be told to leave if I dislike it. Same applies champ.
