The 3 Branches - Only use ONE

AuthenticZ - Current has all the features. AuthenticZLite ONLY has the outfits and zombie spawns. It does NOT have the backpack upgrading system. AuthenticZBackpacks+ ONLY has the backpack upgrading system.

Common Issues and their fixes

1. "My server won't start" "Normal Termination" etc etc FIX - Update your copy of AuthenticZ, sometimes Steam doesn't do it correctly. Review Method 2 on updating mods for servers/local servers

2. "I can't upgrade my backpack or use the attachment slots" etc etc FIX - Make sure you are NOT running multiple branches of AuthenticZ, this is a common issue of doing that. Make sure you have the sufficient materials to upgrade. Secondary bags (small bags that you can not wear on your back) need a carabiner (can be crafted with 5 paperclips) so it can be attached to the "Secondary Bag Slot".

I do not give you permission to use the AuthenticZ assets for anything outside of gameplay functionality, unless specially given by me. My assets are considered Steam workshop items and can not be used to create NFTs. NFTs violate Steam TOS. Please do not re-upload my mod without my specific permission. I have the means and motivation to go after such violators.

[h1] When you report a bug, give me as much info as you can. Such as... 1. What branch of the mod you are running, 2. When does the error happen (so I can replicate it) 3. Any console error reports. For the best convenience and response time, post your error report on my discord channel, linked above.

Also try uninstalling and reinstalling the mod if you suspect that your copy of the mod wasn't updated when one was released recently. Steam sometimes doesn't immediately push updates. [/h1]
