This mod rebalances the weight system in Project Zomboid Build 42 to enhance realism. It addresses discrepancies where lightweight items, such as clothing and cotton balls, have excessive weight or volume penalties compared to heavier items like metal pipes.

The mod modifies 1,611 items across 29 categories, including:

  • Clothing
  • Medicines
  • Books (Literature, Skill Books, Magazines)
  • Bottles
  • Tools

Changes include individual item adjustments, partial changes based on ID filters, and category-wide modifications. Note that due to the search mechanism using category and character filters, the mod may automatically affect weights of items added by other mods or future game updates.
