this mod is old, is it still needed? im asking cause there, there is newer build mods, but enabling mods that do the same thing, is just a wast of load speed and fps

how to remove concrete floor?

Looks like there's a conflict with the RV interior mode. After you get into the car, you can't use that mode to decorate your room and go outside.

This mod makes some Metalworking tiles, such as Metal Counters, un-craftable. It appears the mod reworks propane. Then it sets the propane cost of said furniture to be higher than can be contained in a propane torch.

Guys this is an old mod that hasn't been updated in over 2 years, there's no point asking for improvements or complaining about bugs, it's effectively dead. Cheeck out the replacement mod FunGus cites below: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2866791728&searchtext=improved+build

I personally just want a mod that cleans up the build menu and nothing else, but for some reason this and FunGus' mods both tweak actual gameplay values and recipes, so this or that one isn't for me, but YMMV.

hello, Vaileasys

i want to make a construction-related mod or have a mod that has already been created
I'm looking for a moderator who can do this
and i think,you know this
when play dedicated Server(MP),
is it possible to create a mod that prevents users without admin rights from creating any structures?

i need your knowledge on this matter
i sent you a steam friend add request,Please accept it!

This mod conflicts with Britas Weapon Pack, preventing the Gerber Ding Dong Breaching Tool from destroying walls, furniture, etc.

any chance to add the option to turn on/off the metal pipe/bar crafting recipe in either sandbox settings or mod options? I like the better UI this mod offers, but there are other mods that can turn useless metal items into metal scraps that can be used for crafting metal items. And this functionality sort of creates a conflict.

the pillar for the fences has an invisible wall, please remove it...

@Vaileasys pls in ur mod in folder ImprovedBuildMenu / media / lua / client / BuildingObjects / ISUI / ISBuildMenu.lua in line 215:

local lightOption = subMenu:addOption("Light source", worldobjects, nil);

add getText(ContextMenu), like this:

local lightOption = subMenu:addOption(getText("ContextMenu_Light_Source"), worldobjects, nil);

and add this line ContextMenu_Light_Source in lua / shared / translate / context menu, like this:

--Other
ContextMenu_Concrete_Floor = "Pour Concrete",
ContextMenu_Light_Source = "Light Source"

cuz for translators, like me it`s not possible to translate this build, without this line

I can't get this to work at all, no matter what version or load order I use. It used to be so helpful, please fix!
[TEA] Tareku 24 Mar, 2023 @ 5:57pm 
does this work with 41.7x ?
FallenSoldier 21 Dec, 2022 @ 4:30am 
Is it possible to make this compatible with Cheat Menu by bratwurst kaiser?
When i enable free crafting it doesn't recognize it, and i still need the crafting materials.

Maybe a possible fix?
dovahkiin 28 Nov, 2022 @ 11:07pm 
idk getting error message when build wire fenced gate, how to fix that?
VRreddy Player One 24 Nov, 2022 @ 2:38am

Rob 4 Oct, 2022 @ 5:43am

Kiyora Usagi/Kio 31 Jul, 2022 @ 5:24am 
Fuck outa here boy
walkingwalktroug 30 Jul, 2022 @ 7:47pm 
this mod conflicts with other mods and will break essential parts of your game
Harnex 19 Jul, 2022 @ 3:56pm 
Where in the world can I find dry cane? I can't find a single clue on this on the internet and it's driving me crazy, I can't build a wall fully since I can only make the foundation and then its asking me for dry cane to finish it
xxbasmanxx 8 Jul, 2022 @ 1:26pm 
Sup. I made a translation for your modification into Russian. I can give you the files, that you would implement them in your modification. Is it interesting for you?
Grimm Spector 6 Jul, 2022 @ 3:31pm 
It's abandoned mate, best hope is that someone reverse engineers it
WaPaKs 3 Jul, 2022 @ 4:52am 
hope they update this mod it's so needed in game
Shadow 27 Jun, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
@RayyaViper this mod has not been updated on ages, it broke after some updates back on 41.50 so i would not recommend using this since this issue regarding carpentry ui has been caused by this mod becoming useless
RayyaViper 16 Jun, 2022 @ 9:51am 
hi i can't see the carpentry menu

can somone help me ?
Tatsuya 14 Jun, 2022 @ 10:16pm 
To those who are about to make your own DIY structures: disable this mod, go lay out your foundational walls, build those walls, then re-enable this mod.

This mod has not been up to date and there is no patches as of yet.

Hello, I am the owner of one of the larger communities and I would like to see if I could request to put your mod into a mod pack. I inform all my members of the full credits of your mod via a dedicated discord channel and a PDF made for the server which has direct links to your page here and users are encouraged to subscribe and upvote. My team and I will ensure the pack stays up to date within 24 hours of a newly released update and will not waste your personal time by asking for technical support. The purpose of this pack is so that we can ensure control over the server stability and restarts. I will share any details you need, or answer any questions. From all of us at TNF we thank you for your great work!!

Good mod, but the water containers are way too nerfed for me to keep it around. I mean the barrel collecters cost twice as much (fair), to half the water? A barrel that can only held 20 water bottles is unrealistic and not interesting at all.
Sam 6 May, 2022 @ 8:11pm 
:steamthumbsup: Good mod, always appreciate things that make the game easier to navigate. ;) :steamthumbsup:
R4ZH0R 25 Apr, 2022 @ 7:13am 
Has someone been able to remove the sort function or ven the force to build in each wall?

Its amazing how this mod survived all that way without much issue... :luv:
Walter Schwartz 21 Apr, 2022 @ 2:08pm 
which menu is concrete floors in? does it use the concrete powder>?
Kjrov 21 Apr, 2022 @ 12:19am 
Perhaps it would be possible to be able to use this mod without changing the way building walls work?

As of right now, in order to build standard metal or wood walls, you would have to build the frames, and from clicking the frames INDIVIDUALLY, you need to select what level of wall or windowed wall you would want to build - as opposed to vanilla, where you would be able to build multiple of such walls in succession as after building one wall, a silhouette is left behind which allows you to do so.

My apologies if this is not the case, maybe a mod conflict/incompatibility/error, but in the event that this is a deliberate aspect of the mod, it is quite tedious to have to repeatedly click such-and-such for each individual wall one would want to build; a workaround or patch would be greatly appreciated.

That being said, thank you for the wonderful mod - finally, metal doors and stairs are a thing - now I just need to find a log build expansion mod, lmao.

Found a bug in metalworking.
Was about to build that rod fence double gate (not the wire one!) but couldn't. The option to build it was red, while all requirements were met and shown green.
I went the extra mile and made a new testing savegame with a metalworking char and no zombies, so I can quickly gather all the mats and tools. All the other mods I'm using were still on, just this one turned off and I was indeed able to build said double fence gate.
So I can pretty safely say, it's a bug in this mod. Everything else works fine, as far as I can say. I have this mod in my game for ages, but it was the first time I wanted to build that specific gate.
Anyone else having that issue?
Grimm Spector 13 Apr, 2022 @ 4:53pm 
@Jamsalad nope, that's a limitation of the base game, but one that's on their list of future development changes long term.
Jamsalad 13 Apr, 2022 @ 2:56pm 
can you rotate stairs beyond the 2 points?
Comrade Jcd 9 Apr, 2022 @ 8:53am 
Great mod, but would it be possible to also include the white picket fences from the base game? It'd be nice to have a fence for farming plots/catwalks that is less obtrusive than the wooden fence, but neater and cheaper than the pole fence.

How strong are jail walls?
Cableguy 25 Feb, 2022 @ 7:22pm 
Does this still work for MP build 41.66?
Mackeroni 23 Feb, 2022 @ 12:42pm 
This may or may not be a vanilla bug, but the Wood Wall Corner acts like an invisible wall and blocks movement.
Grimm Spector 17 Feb, 2022 @ 12:03pm 
@KodeMan it's working in MP just laggy for me, what's happening for you?
KodeMan 17 Feb, 2022 @ 8:52am 
Please get this mod stable for multiplayer, we would love to add this to our servers.
Andres 8 Feb, 2022 @ 11:00am 
Garage door maybe?
