[Obsolete] Zombie Window Crash Patch [B42]

Description
Do not subscribe to this mod. The bug has been fixed in B42.6, so please update your game to B42.6 or higher



This mod fixes a vanilla bug that crashes the game when player hits a zombie in front of a window.

For the game to crash, the following conditions must be met:
1. The player needs to have multi-hit enabled and use a multi-hit capable weapon such as a baseball bat or a crowbar, etc.
2. When the player hits a zombie, the window behind it must break.
However, these aren't rare conditions, as windows and fences are among the best weapons in Project Zomboid, and players commonly prefer to play with multi-hit enabled.

For more details about the bug, please refer to the discussion below:

How to Patch
1. Subscribe to the Mod
  • First, make sure your game version is B42, not B41, and that the game is fully closed.

  • Then, subscribe to Zombie Window Crash Patch [B42] on the Steam Workshop.

2. Locate the Mod Folder
In File Explorer, navigate to your Steam Workshop directory, which by default is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\3446911675\mods\ZombieWindowCrashPatch\42

(You may copy and paste the above path into the Windows search bar or File Explorer to quickly open it.)

3. Copy the “zombie” Folder
Within the 42 folder, locate a folder named “zombie.”
Right-click this folder and select “Copy.”

4. Find the Project Zomboid Installation Directory
Open a File Explorer window and navigate to your Project Zomboid installation folder. Typically, this can be found here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid

Make sure you see an existing “zombie” folder in this directory.

5. Paste and Replace Files
Paste the “zombie” folder from Step 3 into your main Project Zomboid folder. When prompted with a warning message indicating that one file named “CombatManager.class” already exists, choose “Replace the file in the destination.” This will overwrite the necessary file.

You have successfully installed Zombie Window Crash Patch [B42].
