Thank you! Now it works fine)

workshop can be mess sometimes.
when your game is not running, unsubscribe from this mod, restart steam and subscribe again and see if mod was re-downloaded with correct version.

You can also try to force reset workshop status for whole PZ (and re-download all mods) by reading this: https://www.reddit.com/r/projectzomboid/comments/rey091/workshop_version_mismatch_errors_on_mp_servers/

Hi!
Thank you very much for this mod. I really like it.
But don't know why I can't use scalpel for autopsy. It's looks like Steam installed 1.2 version. Can I somehow check it and change vervion?

Details:
I installed mode in existing save.

Thanks!

do you get more XP for wearing gloves
Tabi 23 Oct, 2022 @ 10:56am 
ah fair enough
ttr  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:35am 
@tabi, you can change this in settings (see in description) and when I will find time I will add this to sandbox options.
Tabi 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:15am 
so wait, I sat here taking apart a corpse for 6 hours only to get 10 points into medical 1? nice.
Kras 15 Sep, 2022 @ 6:48pm 
Can you add a 3D model for the Medical Journal? I have a place to study corpses and I'd like to decorate it by leaving the medical journal on a table :)

Thank you very much for your work. is there a possibility to increase the compatibility with the mod "Legend Craft - Melee Weapons"?
cannonInspector 18 Jun, 2022 @ 5:41pm 
I might be asking a lot here, but could you add functionality for this mod to determine a cause of death? Specifically in the case of players. This is a really cool baseline, even without that.

I've modified that line inside the LUA code. I have nothing in my <root>/Lua folder. I'm using gportal as my server host. But modifying the code should work and I've hard-coded 5 multiplier on line 15. If this helps anyone else using a server host, the file you're looking for is on this path: /steamapps/workshop/content/108600/2695355759/mods/CorpseStudy/media/lua/server
Anyways thank you for your help. I'll try to get modOptions going, if I do find anything helpful I'll come back.
ttr  [author] 30 Mar, 2022 @ 1:48pm 
(my dyslexia this is why it's typo)
try editing mod_options.ini on server only
I think on linux it will be in ~/Zomboid/Lua/

IF you need to do it inside LUA code, see file in server dir, line 15-16.
xShepex 30 Mar, 2022 @ 9:34am 
I love this mod but I'm having issues buffing the XP on my server. I can't find the ~root/Lua/Mod_options.ini file (I have Mod Options installed on client & server). I went into the actual path of the mod /steamapps/workshop/content/108600/2695355759/mods/CorpseStudy/media/lua/shared/CoprseStudyOptions.lua (yeah Corpse is misspelled for some reason) and changed "xpMult = 5" from 1. I suspect that because mod option is here, it's overwriting that value because it doesn't multiply to that value at all. Any ideas? I may just change the .lua that adds more EXP other than 15 but in the next update is probably going to break so I'd like to find a more definitive solution. Thanks in advance.
ttr  [author] 7 Mar, 2022 @ 3:30am 
You're welcome.
Nevi 6 Mar, 2022 @ 6:24pm 
That did the trick thank you so much <3. I'm new to modding this so I didn't realize I had to add it to the saved game mod list as well. Thank you again for being so kind ^-^.
ttr  [author] 6 Mar, 2022 @ 4:09am 
@nevi Can be added mid game.
Did you only enable it in mods main menu or did you edit mod list in save game (its in load->select save and there should be button on bottom to modify mods list)
Nevi 6 Mar, 2022 @ 1:19am 
This doesn't seem to be working for me. I added it a week into my sp game and I couldn't make the medical journal at all. I tried loading it with debug mode to see if the journal was in the item list and it doesn't exist. Or do I have to start a fresh game to play with this mod?
Squid Snack 28 Feb, 2022 @ 7:29am 
ah yes, it just didn't say in the description
ttr  [author] 28 Feb, 2022 @ 6:00am 
@Squid Snack you mean scalpel? it should be already. If there is another one in base game that I do not know of, LMK and I'll add it in next update (as most of it is done)
Squid Snack 27 Feb, 2022 @ 10:05pm 
Can u add the surgical knife as an option of knife types?
ttr  [author] 27 Feb, 2022 @ 4:06am 
@revich - dissecting corpses takes longer than creating axe.
XP setting was requested and it will happen bt busy w/ life.
Keep in mind, you still get more XP per time w/ corpses than normal way and free leather stripes
Slynx Jewel 27 Feb, 2022 @ 3:48am 
@revitch there is another mod with roughly the same concept and it has xp slider to allow you to set the right amount exp for actions... don't remember the name. probably examine corpses or smth
Revich 27 Feb, 2022 @ 3:11am 
it's 5exp for the body... that's a joke
and it takes 8000 *smth* time (creating an axe only took 80 *smth* - x100 times longer ahahahaha)
Revich 27 Feb, 2022 @ 3:08am 
that's toooooo little exp given :( and craft is soooo slow... Unplayable
ttr  [author] 23 Feb, 2022 @ 4:58am 
@fookin Diablo, destroy any medical journals You have and should be fine.
Fookin Diablo 22 Feb, 2022 @ 12:54pm 
Can this be removed mid save?
ldiotPhD 14 Feb, 2022 @ 3:46pm 
epico
ttr  [author] 14 Feb, 2022 @ 8:05am 
@IdiotPhD yes
ldiotPhD 13 Feb, 2022 @ 8:21pm 
works with B41 right?
Dufnufu 6 Feb, 2022 @ 4:32am 
Give a chance to getting infected if you don't clean yourself after finishing studying or having open wounds.
Jane Grey 3 Feb, 2022 @ 7:47am 
Excellent Work. Hopefully something like this will be implemented by the DEVS at some point. TY.
Korbax 2 Feb, 2022 @ 10:38am 
And trash, indeed. Though I'd rather use a trashcan for that.
ttr  [author] 2 Feb, 2022 @ 10:30am 
... and trash :)
Korbax 2 Feb, 2022 @ 10:05am 
A good way to get first aid AND remove corpse!
Red 28 Jan, 2022 @ 10:46am 
lol this is a great idea
SH1TWORKS 27 Jan, 2022 @ 12:49pm 
Tested on 41.56 new save. No red error messages during testing. No other mods were activated during testing. Definitely, a better way to increase First-Aid other than hurting yourself, which isn't really immersive in my opinion. Thanks for the update to a good mod.
ttr  [author] 22 Jan, 2022 @ 9:40am 
I'm not planning to add more features to this mod right now.

For idea of scaling with level it's not so easy as this is crafting recipe with on-complete hook - time is fixed. If I'll do any thing, i'll add different ways of dissecting corpses, so on higher level you will have proper way of dealing with them (and will require better tools) that will be faster and perhaps more XP.

In XP topic, they should be still nerfed IMO, as they are still too OP - they give about 10x more xp when dealing with multiple injuries in same time frame, but will leave as they are now.

I have some idea about what i like to do with this mod (different ways of dealing with corpses, low level will not give you leather strips, high level will require medical tools, blood spatter and so on), but it's low on my priorities now, and in general it was just simple port to new version of PZ with some cleanup.

When I'll get some time, will add sandbox options for XP (as this can be scaled)
Bahkja 21 Jan, 2022 @ 8:31pm 
Or maybe make the speed of the dissection scale with first aid level?
Bahkja 21 Jan, 2022 @ 7:28pm 
@ttr Any chance you could add a sandbox setting for how long it takes to examine? I would like to speed it up on my multiplayer server if possible :) Otherwise thanks for the mod!
Slynx Jewel 18 Jan, 2022 @ 12:28am 
xp gain is not that great also.... had to spend almost full day inspecting zombies to gain 1 level of first aid(without exp buffs from skill level, traits or book. for baseline test). and since you don't really need that skill the time felt as wasted.
Slynx Jewel 18 Jan, 2022 @ 12:02am 
nice mod. the only complain i have: if you interrupt the study you'll have to start over. and it takes a looooooong time to do.
Rhasmoth 16 Jan, 2022 @ 4:38pm 
Niiiice, so that's a feature! Fun stuff mate.
ttr  [author] 16 Jan, 2022 @ 10:22am 
Response is depends on tool used :)
Rhasmoth 16 Jan, 2022 @ 10:02am 
lmao, has anyone else noticed that when you examine a corpse, the response you get is "Corpse craved"? Going a little cannibal I think! :laughing_yeti:
