Description
Click Here For The B42 Version

Please note that because of the release of B42, this is the LESS up-to-date version of this mod. I may back-port as time (and sanity) allows, but for all of the latest items and updates, please visit the page above.

PALSJ's Palettes & Cosmetics
This is a make up and cosmetics mod for Project Zomboid that hopes to focus on make up that is more dark-skin friendly while also remaining in-line with the vanilla game. It also adds nail polish. While you (or your character) do not have to be black to use this mod, the specific goal here is to empower Africana folks to create characters that look like themselves and their communities.

THIS MOD IS NOT A REPLACER. You get MORE MAKE UP--Not make up replacements!

HUGE HUGE HUGE THANKS TO BIRGET FOR INSPIRING THIS MOD.
She makes an AWESOME body mod with its own skin and make-up support including contacts, nail polish, and all of your standard make up. It's one of my favorites, and a link to her page can be found here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/birget/myworkshopfiles/?appid=108600

Give her all the love in the world! Спасибо!

Current Additions
All make up should work for both models, but is made with the female model in mind. There is, tragically, no way (that I know of) to tailor make up to one model or the other. If this changes, I will do my best to put the work in.
  • Duo-Tone Lipsticks
  • Eyeshadow
  • Nail Polish
  • Nail Polish (Pride Variants)
  • Contacts (Left and Right--Heterochromia Available)
  • Blush (Red--Light, Medium, Dark)
  • MANY, MANY scars (Thank you to Cassie for assisting with ALL of these!)
  • Freckles
  • Eye Bags

...And more all the time!

Make up options can be found using lipstick, foundation, or eyeshadow items. Nail polish and contacts can be found in salons, bedside tables (rare), and optometrists.




In This Update... (December 2024)
  • TIS forces me out of my soft-retirement. Thank you TIS.

Known Bugs & Upcoming Fixes
  • None. As always, report bugs as you find them.

This mod should be compatible with everything as it only adds models and textures and does not otherwise modify any existing content.

If there are any bugs not listed here, please use the discussions section to let me know! I will do my best to fix them. You can also check the change log to see when the mod was last updated, what was fixed and/or added, and what is planned for the next update!




FAQ
Does this mod work for the male frame?
...Probably! The make up in this mod was made with the female frame in mind, but should also work for the male mod. If it looks particularly jank, and there is demand for masc-friendly make up, I will gladly go back and add some!

Can I translate this mod?
Yes, and... I would like to keep all translation efforts localized onto this mod. If you have a translation of some kind that you would like to help me add, please send it to me, and I will happily and gratefully add it to this mod and your name on this page!

I have a request or I want to support you in making this mod.
Great! Any requests can go in the comments, and if anyone wants to support, please feel free to reach out. I'm @PALSJ on Discord. If you are interested in tipping, my Ko-fi is linked below. Comments always make me smile--so please feel free to leave those too! :)

Can I put this mod into a mod pack?
No, and I wouldn't encourage you to do so anyway. I want folks to have access to the most up to date version of this mod, which may happen at any time...subject to my life/schedule. I don't want folks having an out-of-date experience, and while mod packs are convenient for users, they're inconvenient for creators when it comes to updates.

Can you make this mod compatible with other skin and/or body mods?
Prooooobably not. The intention was for this to be used with vanilla, and compatibility can...be a bit of a challenge, I'm finding. I'm going to give a soft no for now, but if it really becomes a large request, I will think about it.

Please ALSO keep in mind that all items within this mod were created with the darker skin tones in mind and are intended to work best with said skin tones. If you find you don't like how it looks on your lighter skinned character, then you're more than welcome to get in contact with me (or the modding community at large) to create your own mod. (I mean it! More mods = more cake, and who would say "no" to more cake??)

I don't want the pride variants of nail polish. Can you make them optional?
No.

...In all seriousness, there are three reasons I won't be doing that.
1. I QUITE LITERALLY do not know how to. Sandbox options are beyond me, and I really don't care to learn them at this moment in time.
2. If you don't want to use them, you do not have to. The benefit of more options outweighs the negative of less choice.
3. If you think for two seconds that this entire modding scene, and many other modding scenes, is not carried on the backs of queer folks and furries, you're living your life eyes wide shut. You can endure this, I promise.

@Roddo Hey there! Reach out to me on Discord—@PALSJ. Steam isn’t super ideal for communication for me!
Roddo 23 Nov, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
Hello, I love your mod and I would like to expand it through a plugin, I wanted to know if there is any way I could contact you to ask you a lot of questions about it if it wouldn't be a bother. Greetings

Bahaha tooooo true. I had someone on my piercings mod say that there sure were a lot of Gay People (derogatory) playing the game now and I was like hmm. Well. Lemme just get this outta the way...

also the fact you had to include a FAQ about the pride polishes just says a lot about PZ fans and how masc-bro coded they can be sometimes
