It's a very nice MOD!
If you have a bold request, it would be nice to have a lethal mode.

Not for now sadly. I am quite busy until next month so I will make them repairable along with an alternative skin for them to make them look like shurikens (will be optional of course) once I have the chance

What to do with a broken knifes? Can repair them?
daisling 8 Jan, 2024 @ 4:54am 
NO WAAAY THANK YOU!
yes  [author] 7 Jan, 2024 @ 10:09am 
Noted, expect to see it here soon!

I would kill for a ninja star/shuriken version of this. Would probably get 20k kills with it fueled by my absolute excitement
yes  [author] 19 Nov, 2023 @ 4:22pm 
It should be in the Metalworking tab
cronk 18 Nov, 2023 @ 3:25pm 
what section of the crafting menu do they show up in? weapons?
yes  [author] 18 Oct, 2023 @ 12:38am 
Bars and police stations would be interesting places. Right now I'm a bit busy, but as soon as I have the time I'll add some some those places for them to spawn.
Torkkar 17 Oct, 2023 @ 5:01pm 
TBH any where you can find Hunting Knives, Gun stores... find some really shit ones in comic book stores (if their are any I tend to not leave Muldraugh) and lowest chances would be GigaMarts & Hardware store/Warehouse's also a few in police stations Weapons loot as well cause they've been confiscated, and at Bar's in place of Darts (I live in a town with a bar that offers Knife throwing & Axe throwing games with blunted equipment & soft hay stack targets)

Just a few spots off my head that sell/would have throwing knives
yes  [author] 13 Oct, 2023 @ 7:05am 
I think that makes sense. I'll see if can make it spawn in them. Thanks! hope you like it
Archadies Leafwalker 13 Oct, 2023 @ 3:53am 
I would also think the throwing knives could be found maybe on soldiers since I think they are taught how to throw a knife but... eh, not sure. Liked, faved and subbed. I also gave an award. Looking forward to try it out.

Demo-Cide! 8 Oct, 2023 @ 10:51pm 
Didn't know i needed this mod, thanks a ton
yes  [author] 4 Oct, 2023 @ 4:53am 
thanks man I'll try my best
anarko_1 4 Oct, 2023 @ 4:32am 
niceeeeee



great mod


don't let this ever get outdated man
yes  [author] 2 Oct, 2023 @ 11:31am 
Alright, done. Let me know what you guys think.
yes  [author] 2 Oct, 2023 @ 10:27am 
Those are great places, yeah I'll make them show up around the map and zombies. I think they would be common in survivor houses, the ones barricaded with bandit looking guys in them. Thanks for the ideas!
Silverbane7 2 Oct, 2023 @ 7:51am 
@anarko_1 I think throwing knives would probably show up in the stock of standard hunting, shooting and survivalist shops.

You might find them on zombies with the biker gang leather jackets too, or even the looter and burglar zombies

(That's my suggestion for where they make sense to find to loot instead of just crafting)
anarko_1 2 Oct, 2023 @ 6:08am 
oh, welp thats a shame because now i will have to learn about metal stuff AAAAAAAAAAAA


i would appreciate if you could make them lootable


like making them a bit rare but with some durability


and idk exactly where so just make them spawn in average containers and in dead zombies, like those knifes in their backs



sorry for my bad english btw
yes  [author] 2 Oct, 2023 @ 3:58am 
Thanks! Yeah you can re-use them although there is a really small chance for them to break. For now, the only way of get them is by crafting them. Maybe I can make them lootable around the world in the future. Where would you like to be able to find them?
anarko_1 1 Oct, 2023 @ 5:14pm 
finally a mod like this, good job man


also, wich is the exact probability of finding a throwing knive in a zombie?


im not into metal working so thats the only reliable way of obtaining them


AH and i almost forgot to ask if you can pick them up and re-use them
yes  [author] 1 Oct, 2023 @ 4:30am 
I updated the mod! Now you'll find your knives in zombies after killing them. Damage and critical chance severly decreased.
yes  [author] 30 Sep, 2023 @ 8:39am 
the damage is already linked to the short blade skill, critical chance too
The Free Man 30 Sep, 2023 @ 8:12am 
Do you think you could link the accuracy or damage to the short blade skill?
Captain Tofu 29 Sep, 2023 @ 6:17am 
For my taste, the throwing knives are too lethal. But I appreachiate the idea!
yes  [author] 29 Sep, 2023 @ 2:48am 
@Zepheros They always hit but sometimes they will one shot and other times you'll have to throw another knife. I didn't want to include the aiming skill since the only way to level it up is by shooting guns and the idea of "well to be able to hit something with my knife I'll go and shoot 40 shotgun shells first" seemed kinda weird.
yes  [author] 29 Sep, 2023 @ 2:29am 
I'll test it as soon as I can. But I think it should work...? Idk, the mod essentially add a new weapon that follows the same mechanics that the vanilla game already uses so I don't think it should crash or something.
Torkkar 28 Sep, 2023 @ 2:14pm 
ok Who let the ninja's out of the box
7FeetUnder 28 Sep, 2023 @ 1:06pm 
Have you tested the mod for MP by chance? I'd definitely love to use this in my MP sessions in the future
Zepheros 28 Sep, 2023 @ 1:02pm 
Any more info about the knives? Do they take skills like aim into consideration? Can you miss throwing them or do they always hit? Are they balanced or do they one shot? Been looking for a good mod to add throwable weapons, but most are old and outdated with issues now.
a three-colored carp 26 Sep, 2023 @ 12:41pm 
cool!
lovelyy 26 Sep, 2023 @ 3:43am 
THIS... MOD.... REEEEEKS!
Silverbane7 26 Sep, 2023 @ 3:22am 
Sweet!
*favourited and subbed*
Time to take out my frustrations on some unsuspecting readies, then.
(Got a WHOLE lot of ANGRY to take care of now, too. Guess I'm gona have to make a LOT of knives.)
yes  [author] 26 Sep, 2023 @ 2:46am 
Lmao I'm addicted to that same noise too! Yes, you can hear it as long as the zombie is near enough for you to hear them die.
Silverbane7 26 Sep, 2023 @ 2:42am 
Great, thanks for the updated dete's.
This was something I missed.
Do 'we' hear a sound if the knife hits? (Even if its silent in the world, does the player behind the keyboard hear a sound?)
Kinda addicted to that sweet headshot 'thwap!' noise I get in cyberpunk tbh XD it must trigger my endorphins lmao, but I love it.
yes  [author] 26 Sep, 2023 @ 2:14am 
For now they are a 'make lots of me' type until I can figure out how to make them spawn inside the zombie's inventory after use. So essentially, yes, they one shots destroyed on hit for now.
Silverbane7 26 Sep, 2023 @ 2:04am 
Are they a single reusable weapon, or a 'make lots of me' type?
Do you collect them from bodies after killing them, or are they one shots that are destroyed on hit?
