Blood VFX for Viewpoint

What it adds

  • Blood spray and mist on every hit that does real damage (shoves don't bleed), scaled by how hard you hit
  • Splats on floors, walls and ceilings that dry from red to brown, drips running down walls, pools under the dead
  • Dismemberment: axes and blades cut off the part under your crosshair, blunt weapons and shotguns burst it into meat chunks (heads and lower legs only on the killing blow, never from torso hits). The pieces fly and bounce, and the stump spurts
  • Blood flies along the attack: with the swing of your weapon, down the line of your shot, or up from a stomp
  • A chance of slow motion with deeper sound on kills that cut something off (single player)
  • Presets from Realistic to Epic gore, and sliders for everything in Options > Mods
  • Works with Viewpoint's shader packs (Minecraft Iris packs such as Complementary, Solas and Photon): blood takes on the pack's lighting and is hidden correctly behind your hands, weapon and walls

Disclaimer

  • NOT OFFICIALLY ENDORSED OR SUPPORTED BY VIEWPOINT

Requirements

  • Project Zomboid Build 42.21
  • Project Viewpoint 0.1.5a
  • ZombieBuddy with its Java loader installed; it asks you once to approve this mod's Java code

Load order: ZombieBuddy, then Viewpoint, then this mod.

Known limits

  • Early alpha. It hooks into Viewpoint's renderer, so a Viewpoint update can break it until this mod is updated.
  • Hats and helmets are not carried on a severed head.
  • With a shader pack, severed parts don't cast shadows.
  • Multiplayer is untested; slow motion is always off in multiplayer.
  • Cuts aren't saved: after loading a save, corpses are whole again.
