I am using this and some other mods like More Simple Traits, and I'm wondering if you know why alcoholic has disappeared?

I can't figure out why this would be the case.

If you’re looking for an updated version for Build 42, I released one yesterday - including some error fixes and tweaks with permission from Fenris_Wolf.

@Dr_Cox1911 sorry for directly posting a link in your comment section :spiffo:
CyberPunked 13 May @ 5:12pm 
you can just look when it was updated last lol
Grenaders3 8 May @ 7:58pm 
@Dr_Cox1911 I recommend putting [B41] in the mod title to stop people from calling it broken.
K4 14 Feb @ 7:48am 
is anybody else having the problem that says "requires ProfessionFrameworkB41Patch" i have the profession framework mod but it hasnt changes, should i get the old framework mod to make it work?
xenix 8 Feb @ 3:27am 
u have a nice coks
Dr_Cox1911  [author] 8 Jan @ 4:42am 
@levinproyes are you referring to B41 or B42? If the latter, than no wonder, as this mod is not updated for B42.

I'm not the mod author, that is Fenris_Wolf, I only did the upload to the workshop back in the days with his permission, as he had no Steam account.
levinproyes 6 Jan @ 9:37am 
the mod doesn't appear on mod list
matteokmp 26 Dec, 2024 @ 7:41am 
Is this mod compatible with B42?
Saul Zomboid 23 Dec, 2024 @ 5:59am 
updated this for b42, nice work with this mod!

Does anybody know why the modified versions and added professions aren't available when dying and selecting "make new character".

For example I have a Photographer profession that is only available when making a new character form the main menu, otherwise it is entirely absent.

Additionally, Nurse and Doctor both have the trait Medical Practitioner. ONLY when starting/joining from main menu. Not after dying.

Looking for any help I can get.

Nice
Mehrunes Dagon did nothing wrong 15 Sep, 2024 @ 2:23pm 
This worked fine in my self hosted server, but the professions don't show up on my paid-hoster dedicated server.
Hephaistos 14 Sep, 2024 @ 11:24am 
@ItsShintarou
It’s working just fine for both SP and MP.
Try reverse-engineering some of the mods that are running with it.

Hello Dr_Cox,

I hope you're doing well! I'm currently putting together a modpack for a Project Zomboid server called "Infected Chronicles," which is focused on creating a unique and immersive experience for our community through rp! (if anyone is interested reach out to me via messages). Your mod would be a perfect fit for the atmosphere we're aiming to build. I'd like to ask for your permission to include it in our modpack. Of course, full credit will be given to you, and I'll be sure to follow any guidelines you have. Thank you for considering my request!

Best regards,
Techspartan

This Framework doesnt work for multiplayer even with setting the romoval of vanilla occupation on true. Still waiting for a fix or for help
Hephaistos 12 Jun, 2024 @ 12:27am 
In addition to what NukaBoy said further down: Make sure that your unemployed occupation doesn’t have any (custom) traits! It should be completely free of all traits. Otherwise, the game will crash when players try to load their pre-saved character builds.

Hope this helps those who are trying to find a solution to that crashing issue.:handsup:
Morgan 28 Mar, 2024 @ 5:55pm 
May I add this to my modpack?
kps224 2 Jan, 2024 @ 6:17pm 
I don't have any use for this mod since I can't code or mod, but the description says that I can edit the default professions. Does this mean I have to mod them or is it in the sandbox settings?
Neko 3 Sep, 2023 @ 10:28am 
So if you are using the functions that remove all vanilla professions or vanilla traits you should be cautious. Some traits and the unemployed profession are required by the game to function correctly. Out of my head some traits the game "needs" are underweight, overweight etc. Basically every skill that you character can gain/lose over time in vanilla
Neko 3 Sep, 2023 @ 10:26am 
@Ostin: Indeed I did. Someone else told me the problem might be that the vanilla "unemployed" profession was removed when I deactivated all vanilla professions. So I added a new profession with a different name then "Unemployed" but used the unemployed name for the internal variables. Worked immediatley and the game stopped crashing.
SausageOfPainAndDespair 9 Jul, 2023 @ 10:34am 
using the -debug mode this mod crash the game, if i remove it the game go without problem, does anyone know a fix?
meepmerp 8 Jul, 2023 @ 5:20am 
In vanilla professions code you can set the chance% of your clothing choices appearing when you click Random during character creation. Is this currently impossible to replicate in Profession Framework?
G-t01l3t. 2 Jul, 2023 @ 8:27pm 
@NukaBoy Did you ever manage to find a fix for the "game crash when selecting a pre-saved trait loadout" problem? I'm getting the same problems with the only trait mods being added being these: 'EvolvingTraitsWorldMarkDynamicTraits;TSW_ScreamsOfPain;SereinaSpearfisherOccupation;MoreBrews;MoreBrewsWineMeUp;Woodcutting Skill;ScrapWeapons(new version);EntertainYourself;MandelaBowAndArrow;V_SlowerSprinters_Joggers", I believe none of them actually use the Profession Framework mod, so is this even a problem with this mod or just any modded traits in general. I've been having this problem for many builds now.
Neko 8 Apr, 2023 @ 1:22pm 
@Dr_Cox1911: Maybe you remember me from GitHub. I posted about selecting trait presets crashing the game with my custom mod (My ticket on GitHub still exists). I know what was the reason now. I added some traits to my professions that used the "swap" flag. For example Cowardly2 instead of Cowardly.

Do you think there will be a fix for that at some point? :)

@ Chodicus you have to use the Yule version of better lockpicking

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2874066574

I have some custom occupations of my own that I have created, however I am having an issue.

If my character dies in-game, you get a pop up prompt to either create a new character or quit to the main menu.

If you select the option to create a new character, when it takes you to the character creator section, the custom occupation does not appear.

I have to quit all the way back to the main menu, and then create a new character that way for my custom occupation to appear.

This is a big problem for the likes of Multiplayer server, because I have to quit to the main menu, if a mod updates, I then cannot re-join my server without restarting it, and that disrupts everyone.

From the several people that I have already spoken to that have also created their own custom occupations, they are having the same issue.

So I am trying to find out how to fix this.
BAM_BAM_XCI 18 Mar, 2023 @ 6:06pm 
does this work yet?
for lockpicking?
Chopicus 6 Mar, 2023 @ 7:39am 
This one does not work for Better Lockpicking. I have tested it.
Morgul 6 Feb, 2023 @ 8:40pm 
For anyone wondering; yes, this is the right Profession Framework to install
Since this is the original and updated version, the other one became obsolete
ParamedicNoodle 30 Jan, 2023 @ 6:10pm 
So, question, is this used for BetterLockpicking, or is the old version still being used?
Neko 25 Jan, 2023 @ 6:07am 
Hey I've created a mod using this framework but whenever I'm selecting a trait/profession preset during character creation the game crashes to desktop.. is that a know issue and how do I solve this?
Space Sprout 22 Jan, 2023 @ 11:47am 
Hello! I’m Kai reaching out on behalf of the Day’s End Roleplay server. We use your mod in our server and have loved it. We were hoping to make it part of our permanent mod pack.

This would include you extending your creative license to us, allowing our mod team to add/edit/use your mod to suit our server. As such we would not publish our edits to the workshop. We will include credit to you as the original creator of the mod, of course.

If this is agreeable to you or would like to discuss this further, please let us know. Thank you for all your effort.

Kai, Day’s End Mod Team

SIMP4G4NYU What kind of errors? Are they game breaking? do you all have the same error? what mods are still installed or only this. Is the server rented or self-hosted? some information is needed if you need help
SIMP 19 Jan, 2023 @ 10:27pm 
So im adding this mod into my server that me and some friends are playing on and I keep getting errors for this mod. Any help would be great thanks
Imagine Wagons 17 Jan, 2023 @ 1:20pm 
Hi, I'm representing a larger server and was wondering if we could please put your mod in a mod pack for our server. This is specifically for our own manageability, reduced workshop update restarts, version control, and server longevity between wipes. The modpack would be private and all recognition of the mods inside will be given to the owners of those mods. We appreciate any leeway you can give us on this, so we can provide our players with the best experience.
rimean 9 Jan, 2023 @ 11:31am 
it works on singleplayer but mods that requires it does not work on multiplayer
Neko 3 Jan, 2023 @ 3:04pm 
Hey @Doctor_Cox1911. I am currently working on my own profession/trait mod and would like to remove a single vanilla trait but keep the others. The trait in question is baseball player. Is there a way to do this? I could only find the function to deactivate all vanilla traits but I don't want that.
ADL'S TOP GUY 6 Dec, 2022 @ 6:39pm 
none of the profession mods I'm subscribed to show up when starting a new game, I made sure to enable this mod before them as well.
