Romanchizmo so real

When I updated the base mod to work better with other mods, and in general.

When did it stop working?
It worked fine back when I last played.

The comments are by far the worst place.

I mean its already challenging to get people to read just the description.
It would help if you put it in the name (OUTDATED) or in the description itself.


But still thanks for clearifying.
Didnt have any damage. Just put the standard mod in the server and the books still transfered all exp.

Guys, please read the comments. The mod does not work. The mod is outdated. The mod is not maintained. It will not be updated again until I host another Zomboid server, and then only if the included functionality has not been assumed into the base mod by then.

Idk if its just me but this mod doesnt work for me. Just throws 4 errors when trying to read the book and doesnt give back the skills Am I doing something wrong?

(sorry for hate but i need to speak out) i hate this fucking mod CAUSE I WASTED 4 FUCKING HOURS TO FIND OUT THAT THIS MOD BREAKS MY GAME AND DELETES MAIN MENU

Mod works still (as far as I can tell) on my server. I haven't died yet to test.
it worked 6 months ago when I last used it.

No need to apologize, you made something good.

For context, this mod was developed for personal use out of frustration with balancing in that if skill recovery journals give you everything back, there's no risk. Without getting anything back though, the risk to losing hours or days of work is too great for casual play with friends. I made the mod public, but never expected it to garner any kind of attention. Apologies for the radio silence.

That would be pretty awesome. Truth be told, the next time I update this, my methodology would be to just fork the current version of the main mod and re-implement this logic in that. I could submit a PR for that when the time comes (didn't even know the original mod had a git repo, but comments seem to indicate that), if the original author believes that thwre is a place dor this functionality in the base mod.

Truth be told, however, I likely will not get around to that until the next time I host a server, which my group has agreed won't be until some form of NPCs are implemented in the base game to spice things up. In other words, it could be awhile.

If the author is not active I will try to absorb his work into the original.

This mod may no longer work if it relied on the original to function.

Seems broken and spits out errors when activated on my server

Hi! For me is not working...nothing is dropped ...anyone can help ? (Multiplayer)

FOR THOSE WHO CAN´T READ DE BOOK:

activate the other mod with the same name:
- Skill recovery jounal
- Skill recovery jounal (GAMMA)
then try to read it again, it worked for me.

In multiplayer show a Error message in the bottom right corner and it doesn't work

How do i change the settings of the mod?

I've been trying for hours to get this to work.
I just tried removing all my mods and still no luck.

Best I get is the "Doesn't feel right to read from someone elses book" and "This is obsolete"
no skills added.

I have this error when try to read journal after dead

STACK TRACE

I just get an error when I read the book

Any input on not gaining skill levels when read and just recipes for version 41.78.16

I had to stop using the original mod because with it on it prevented me gaining xp from video tapes, both modded and vanilla. I could gain xp from watching tv shows but there was something that broke xp gain specific to video tapes. Thank god this mod works fine

no me deja aprender lo del diario en un nuevo personaje

Mod doesn't seem to work in 41.73.

WHen we try to read the book again it just says error. Mod doesnt work :(

Something inbetween a complete respawn and losing everything would be nice.. something that actually works and can't be exploited. Hope this one is what I'm searching for

Can anyone tell me if this mod is working with the current version (41.71)? The current original mod isn't working and also saves the profession and trait related skills and there is no real alternative available that isn't a straight up restart mod that saves all your skills.

In the original mod it looks like he put an option to only return a percentage too, but I still find the mod a bit unbalanced. The amount of xp saved in the journal is the same forever, causing the penalty to be applied only once to the character. It would be interesting to have a modification that would make the book disappear so that he would have to write the book again. That would make dying again something risky because it would make you have less and less xp saved in the book.

Oh this mod is amazing, it literally fix the other mod.. a question, is this standalone?

Cant wait for the update to make it work back...

Sooo... My 2 month character died in a fire. Is there a way to recover the journal, cause everything burned to a crisp ? :D

@UnafraidMoss36: I appreciate your words and input. That's basically the exact problem that we were running into. Losing everything skill-wise on a character that survives for 2 weeks is a massive setback and kills the mood, but losing nothing means there's no reason to avoid dying in the first place. I spent a few hours poring over different distributions before I settled on Gamma as the one that provided the most ideal level-to-xp relationship. Higher-level stats lose more, lower-level stats lose less. A word of caution: This is essentially "re-rolled" every time the journal is updated, so I removed the tooltip that displays the XP values stored in the journals to prevent gaming the system. All known crafting recipes are retained IIRC because those are similarly complicated (recipe trees).

Well this is a surprise, never expected this to get any notice. Everyone on my server (myself included) has been absorbed in Elden Ring since the 24th, so I totally missed these comments. Thanks for the awards.

I'm not sure what broke in the current patch, as this is just a mod of a mod. That is, I took Chuckleberry's Mod and made some changes; you only need this one (which is why I'm being so careful/courteous with credit and all). I could possibly make it a little more stable by reworking it into an add-on, but then if his goes out of date, we're kinda S.O.L. so for now the fix I'm looking into is just gonna be checking out the main mod and seeing what changed in the current patch (assuming it's up to date). I can't stress enough here that I'm not a Zomboid modder and haven't the first clue how to update this mod independently. I'll do some Googling and see what I can learn, but I offer only the promise that I'll try. Check back here soon, hopefully it'll be working again.

Hey, I really like this addition you've made to Chuckleberry's Mod. I currently run a server with the original and though I like the long term progression that the recovery journals provide my players, it eliminates a lot of the consequence from death. Many players just opt to kill themselves and respawn as there is no real penalty for dying. I think it's great how your addition balances that out!

Do you have plans to update it for 41.66? It would be an amazing to add this in :)

Cheers!

Don't work after last patch of game.

Does this require the original mod as well? Or is this a standalone mod?
