Profession Framework B42 - Hephas Edition

Description

While working on my own occupations and traits mods, I ran into errors using the existing B42 ports of the Profession Framework. Some of my users experienced the same issues, and since I couldn’t use any of the available versions reliably, I decided to put together my own fix.

This version is restructured for Build 42, with cleaned-up code, typos, errors and a focus on stability. I’ll keep maintaining it and patching any issues that come up along the way.

It was build and published with the permission of the original author Fenris_Wolf!

Thanks for stopping by!








A huge thank you to Fenris_Wolf, the original creator of the Profession Framework.
His work was not only a massive help to the PZ community - but also one of the first mods that got me into modding Project Zomboid myself.

If you're playing on Build 41 and want to experiment with creating your own professions, I highly recommend checking out the original version of his mod:

👉 Profession Framework




What does this framework do?
Adds a framework to simply adding additional professions and traits to project zomboid,
and editing the default professions. As well as simplifying the modding process and letting
professions have the 'special' traits (brave, lucky, etc), it also simplifies the processes
of adding starting gear to various professions/traits.

Be aware this mod adds no new professions or traits itself, it is merely a framework.
For maximum compatibility, this mod should not included in your own mod, but instead listed as
a requirement.


Is there an example how to use the framework?
Yes! Fenris_Wolf included a helpful example file on his GitHub. You can check it out here: Example & Explanation[github.com]


There are some errors, can you help me?
If the issue is directly related to this B42 version, feel free to let me know and I’ll take a look when I can.
However, if it’s a general modding issue or not tied to this framework version, I may not be able to assist in detail due to limited time.

That said, you can:
  • Search the comment section of the original mod
  • Ask in PZ modding Discord communities
  • Post your question in the comments here - if it’s something quick or minor, I or others might be able to help

Figures. I'll look into it again once I've got some time again. :)

@RejectedBachelorContestant
Then you probably didnt configure your folder structure right. Head over to the Project Zomboid Wiki and search for Mod structure, there is a good overview about how things needs to be set.
RejectedBachelorContestant 29 Jun @ 10:16am 
Yeah, sorry. I cannot seem to get my mod to work. It does not want to show up in my mod load order at all. :(

@RejectedBachelorContestant
If you are using B42 then yeah, you should be able just swap the requirements
RejectedBachelorContestant 23 Jun @ 12:56am 
Quick question, can I just copy my old profession code and swap the requirements? I think I might have used the old folder structure from B41 and hence why it didn't pop up during testing.

@Hephaistos, I left a comment on the Inmate mod mentioning incompatibility with this mod and it was deleted within two hours of my posting it, so I don't think I'm going to use that one anymore.
NalMac 10 Jun @ 8:32am 
@Hephaistos Good to know. I'll have to remember to swap over then at some point.
Hephaistos  [author] 10 Jun @ 8:11am 
Hey @NalMac,
just swapping the requirements should do the trick. The overall structure is a bit different but that shouldnt impact the functionality overall. :spiffo:

@Celestial_Bunny93
Ah there is our culprit! Sadly the author of the Inmate mod needs to tweak his code, I cant do anything on my end.
NalMac 10 Jun @ 5:16am 
@Hephaistos author of the dakimakura mod here. is there anything I would need to do to swap from the other prof framework over to yours or do I just change the requirement?
Celestial_Bunny93 9 Jun @ 1:49pm 
I found which mod is interacting badly with this one in my current mod list. It's VrWiz's Inmate mod. Idk if I'm gonna keep using that one or not, since your mods have been some of my favorites for a while.
