  2. (1A) Steam [EZ Modo]
  3.  
  4. Option A is to buy a copy off Steam. This is the recommended method with a couple of advantages: 1. It's easy to install the game 2. If you end up befriending any anons you can add them easily if you're comfortable with them.
  5.  
  6. Initially this was what I considered the best because of the workshop integration, but I learned that that is not quite the case in order to make the server work with

  10.  
  11. (1B) Sailing Options
  12. =======================================================================================================================================
  13. So you don't want to pay for the game or are extremely concerned about anonymity? No problem. I've always been an advocate for this method, as I'm inline with Gabe Newell's stance that piracy has mainly been a service issue first and foremost. I also believe that all games should have demos like in the good old days, but demos are mostly out of fashion, anyway here are the options I've compiled for acquiring the game through more dastardly means:
  14.  
  15. 1. Torrents:
  16. A. Here's your best option for torrents, along with the magnet of it

  20.  
  21. B. Here's the GOG version of the game's torrent. Seven Gamers is a reliable website but they have some game files on google drive which requires discord access, they are vetted by the Piracy Megathread. THE ZOMBOID TORRENT DOES NOT REQUIRE GOOGLE DRIVE.

  24. 1. Direct Downloads:
  25. A. SteamRIP lets you get Steam Games directly ripped as folders, pre-installed. Files are not tampered with, and it's vetted by the Piracy Megathread.
  26. https://steamrip.com/project-zomboid-free-download/
  27.  
  28. B. Steam Unlocked: This option works fine for some anons, and I have not found any security issues personally but don't quote me on that:

  30.  
  31. (1C) GOG.com
  32. =======================================================================================================================================
  33. Option C is to buy a copy off GOG.com. This method is the same as the pirate method except you pay money. I understand it if you want to support the devs but don't like steam as a platform or something. GOG has done fantastic work in keeping old games alive and MOSTLY DRM free.

  39. (2-)Installing Mods
  40. (2A) Modpack [Any new versions of mods will be added to the gofile folder. Modpack will be updated monthly.]
  41. The Modpack contains all of the mods used by the server, which I manually combed through the workshop to acquire. Download it here:

  50. 6.???

  52.  
  53. (2B) Installing Individually Updated Mods and New Mods
  54. Updated individual mod files will be uploaded to the gofile folder above.
  55.  
  56. (2C) OPTIONAL MULTIPLAYER FIX FOR ZOMBIE CULLING [https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2896255721]
  57. ``Have you ever been chased by any number of zombies, turn around and notice they aren't moving? then you move closer and poof?`` - Zomboid has an issue with how it handles the culling of zombies in Multiplayer. When a certain threshold of zombies is reached in a chunk, it starts culling extra zombies and keeping them as simulated zombies in the surrounding chunks. The problem is it doesn't target the zombies furthest away from a given player, but the oldest zombies, which are often the ones chasing the player, leading to disappearing zombies.
  58. 1.Locate the Zombie Fix folder in the Mods C:/Users/[USER NAME]/Zomboid/mods/zombie fix
  59. 2.Copy the "zombie" folder found here into your ProjectZomboid main install director, overwriting the folder and any files.
