@₢aK - the Firearms mod itself has an option to remove the need for a screwdriver - but i think it applies it to all attachments - not just the silencers

but yeah - ideally one would not need a tool to attach the silencer

however - you tend to do it once and leave it attached forever - so is not so much of a hassle in that respect

plus screwdrivers are a pretty essential bit of kit :-)

anyway - hopefully all is working for you now :-)

I really didn't know I needed a screwdriver to add some accessory ... but unnecessary for a simple silencer

@₢aK - it's been a while since i played - but maybe you don't have a screwdriver? they work like any other attachment - they also use the same attachment slot as some other attachments - so you will need to remove those (iirc the game does not allow replacing of attachments that share the same slot, you need to remove one and then attach the other)

hopefully that all gets it sorted for you :-)

What do you need to do to make it work? There is no option to equip the silencer on the weapon

@smithnys:

yes, very late to answer - and i see no one else did - hopefully you found a suppressor or two

it does depend on your loot rarity settings - but it is possible to simply not find them - since they are just added to the loot lists for the building where guns and ammo spawn - and so it all depends on the loot rolls

so if they are not in any of the police stations, gun stores, or military weapon stores, you may be out of luck for that game

even on the Initial Infection preset you may have to hunt around for them, since by default they are set to Insanely Rare (since they are very overpowered)

so you may want to change that sandbox setting if you want to find some

@Agent Striker:

apologies i have been away from the game for a long time - just returned - i am sure you found how to spawn stuff in - but if not the easiest way is to add the -debug option to the start properties - you will then get access to the in game debug menus - one of which is an item library that will allow you to add items (just type silencer or suppressor into the filter)

I tried this mod in debug mode and went to the military checkpoint and didn't find any suppressors. Anyone know where the best place to find a suppressor would be with out cheats?

What are the cheat mods called to spawn yourself in stuff? All i really want with my friend is to use them because the zomboids really love to listen for sound and melee doesn't cut it sometimes.

Alright thank you.

@Agent Striker:

the spawn locations and frequencies are the same as in the main Firearms B41 mod

you can use debug mode or one of the cheat mods to spawn in a suppressor if you want

maybe i will add an option to spawn with one - but you could also use my Basic Spawns - Police mod to spawn at a police station which will give you a higher chance of finding a suppressor at the start of the game

Do you need to find these or will you spawn with them? All i want is to spawn with a suppressor or 2.

@WillyCazuela:

the translations are live - apologies again for the long wait - and many thanks for providing the translations - i have credited you in the description

thanks again :-)

@WillyCazuela:

translations will be uploaded within the hour - sorry again for the long wait

@WillyCazuela:

apologies for being away for so long - but now i am back i will try and get those translations into this mod very soon

@Don - thanks - there is also a patch that keeps Hyzo's new textures and models, such as the much better sawnoff model (Pretty Vanilla Guns) - there is also one that lets you decide which new weapons you want (Weapon Selector) - links are in the description

personally i am very grateful to Hyzo for all their hard work and have massive respect for their mod - but i wanted to make the option to customise things - and i may add some more when i get back to modding

i also owe a few people some more translations - so i really need to get back to that lol :-)

That may be true, but your small amount of work allows vanilla players to have a really fun feature without all the bloat of the full mod that you grabbed it from.

@Don: no worries - and thanks - but Hyzo did most of the hard work - i just patched it :-)

That makes sense now that you put it that way. Thanks for explaining it to me, and great mod!

@Don:

you would need to make your own assets to do that - or get permission from a mod author to distribute theirs

instead i made this patch, so that people need to install Hyzo's mod first to get the assets - and then i just patch it to leave the silencers

@Грейсайд:

it is a patch for the Firearms mod that removes everything apart from the silencers - it was may way of making a silencer mod

Would it be viable to make a mod that just adds the silencers to the vanilla game rather than requiring a larger mod and then reducing it?

in short what does this mod actually do?

@Drizzt

Thank you very much for the recommendations :), the truth is that I had already downloaded your translation patch and it works great, although the problem is that it is more focused on people who want to use the original Mod in its entirety, since the names of the weapons they are not the vanilla ones.
That's why I decided to help you by creating a Spanish adaptation for this specific patch, since as you wrote in the description; the goal is that only the mufflers are added and everything else stays the same.

"Removes all non vanilla weapons and attachments (except silencers) and restores the vanilla models, textures, sounds and names."

I give you the freedom to do whatever you want with my translation, thank you very much for your work and kindness

@WillyCazuela:

i am glad you like the patch :-)

i do have a translation patch that corrects the symbols for the original mod's translations - it is linked at the bottom of the description above as "Firearms Patch - Translations - WIP (ES)" - but here is another link also:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2860606382

many thanks for doing that work to make better translations - if it's ok with you i can add them to my translation patch (and i will credit you of course) - and that way everyone who uses the translation patch with the original mod can benefit from the improved translations, even if they don't use this patch

if that's ok with you i can maybe try and get that done this weekend?

@Drizzt

With the above I do not mean that your patch is bad. Only that element is missing so that we Spanish speakers can enjoy it.

I'm not an expert on this, but I've been going through your patch files so I can add a Spanish translation and have had good results. I will share the translation folder in case you are interested or if you can add it.

I would like to mention again how grateful I am and the great work

Sorry for my bad English

Hello.
First I want to thank you for sharing this patch as I have been looking for a Silencer Mod but I haven't really liked any except this one.
However, I would like to tell you that my vanilla experience has become a bit uncomfortable due to the fact that the original Mod has a very bad translation into Spanish, since the files are not able to read some words or symbols well, also adding that the names of the weapons are not the ones from the base game.

for anyone who might be interested - here is a link to my new weapon selector patch:

enjoy :-)

@Q,

i have added your suggested warning

FYI - you can use debug to restore any weapons you may have lost

Adding this mod, after playing WILL REMOVE all your weapons. PLEASE add this in caps to your next creation if applicable. (days of work out the window)

@Katenn

no worries :-)

let me know if you have any problems with it

@Drizzt A huge thank's dude ! Really awesome ! I gonna try it right now :)

@Katenn

happy to help:

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2851300681

let me know if you have any problems with it - enjoy :-)

@Drizzt Well wow, it's really nice to you ! People like are really rare actually. Thank's a lot dude ! I gonna wait, your new file ! Thank's <3

@Katenn

of course i understand you want to use Hyzo's weapons - they are awesome :-)

this patch here is just to give people options if they want to play a vanilla game with silencers

i will make that new patch you wanted - but it will be a different file - and you won't need to use this patch at all

i will put a link in the comments here when i have made it :-)

@Drizzt Well thank's you for your answer :)
I understand for the way of your patch. But playing without Hyzo's weapon, is not what I going to do ^^ I just found the AR15 today and I can't put suppressor on it. Make me really sad... I love this gun in everygame.
So I really appreaciate your decision to do a little patch for me, about the AR15, but how to you want to do, if in your mod, you don't use weapons from Hyzo ?

hi @Katenn

i saw your comment on Hyzo's mod and was about to go check the AR-15 when i got distracted lol

so i am glad you dropped by or i may have forgotten to do so :-)

so firstly - no, all my mod/patch does is allow players to fit Hyzo's silencers to the vanilla weapons - so if you install my patch (and Hyzo's mod), you will have a vanilla game, with just the vanilla weapons, weapon models and textures - but with silencers

as for the AR-15 - that is one of Hyzo's weapons - and it looks like it doesn't yet allow for a 5.56 suppressor to be fitted - you can use one of the improvised suppressors though

so it looks like it may be an oversight - and i can certainly make a patch for that

i am just trying to finish my next big patch at the moment - but maybe i will take a break and make a quick patch just for you ;-)

@Drizzt Hello mate, juste for understand correctly, your mod allow us to put a silencer from Firearms Hyzo's mod to vanilla weapons, so the AR15 gonna work with the 5.56 suppressor ? Thank's for reading me :)

@Scott Gaming

it is a thing of massive talent and beauty and we are blessed by Hyzo's generosity in sharing it with us :-)

It is indeed the best gun mod

@Scout Gaming

nice - i keep forgetting that - i shall definitely be giving Hyzo some of my points for a mod that is pretty much a work of art :-)

you can add community awards

@Scout Gaming

i appreciate that - i wish i could add more thumbs up to Firearms :-)

Yessir, it's my fav mod. I will thumbsub your patch now to bump it

@Scout Gaming

i am glad - i just posted it for people that might want such a thing

while also making sure that they would have to subscribe to Hyzo's great mod

i have some other patches i am making too

i just like things to be modular, and found a way to do that without having to include someone else's models and textures etc - since i would not post them without explicit permission from the author otherwise - and they would likely have to remain private for personal use

but this way Firearms will also hopefully get more hits from people who go searching for silencers

and now you mention it, i may update the description later to recommend those who came here first to also try the mod without the patch :-)

I did not dislike your patch tho

@Scout Gaming

if you don't like it there is no need for you to use it

this is simply for people that wish to add silencers to their vanilla game without the extra weapons or anything else that comes with that great mod

yes - i think it is a great mod, and have said so plainly in the description

i also made this mod as a patch, so that people must be subscribed to that great mod in order to use this patch

i like to be able to choose which features i use from many mods - and i don't expect the mod author to have to cater to my specific desires

hence i made some patches

that people can choose to use or not

Why castrate the best mod so badly?
