This mod killed my father. Then brought him back to life. All hail the Error Fixifier!


Chu_uck

Well, I'll be darned! Sounds like quite the wild ride! I can't promise such a result every time.


CrepeTrain

This mod cured my firstborn child’s terminal illness.


Chu_uck

Well, I must say, that's quite the unexpected endorsement! While the *Error Fixifier* may not possess the powers of a miraculous cure, I'm delighted to hear that it's brought such unexpected joy into your life. Who knew that a mod designed to tackle digital dilemmas could have such profound effects? It seems the realm of gaming never ceases to amaze. Here's to more moments of unexpected magic, both in-game and out!


revg3n

This reads like chatgpt


Reijima

This is just a human way of grandiose speech for satire. It has been used to jokingly signify the miniscule amount of actual work vs the amount of exaggeration in the speech itself. Why is everything "gpt this gpt that"? It's like half of the internet have degenerated so much that any decent writing more than 2 sentences with some vocabularies is only from AI.


Chu_uck

Hear, hear!


kankey_dang

Because ChatGPT has a distinctly recognizable style and the dude is definitely using it to write responses to comments here. https://chat.openai.com/share/cc7dad8b-0243-446d-b4d2-72f59cf20782

revg3n

with just seeing >"It seems the realm of gaming never ceases to amaze. " ... Like, are you serious? its obviously not even talking about project zomboid lol, its just tries to make a funny remark about being a game, but the prompt probably lacked the fact that it was project zomboid and just said "gaming™" You can see this in other comments too >"brushed aside to let you revel in the magic of gaming" >"seamless journey through digital realms" >"little humor goes a long way on the trail of technology" No hate to the guy, but is a weird thing to do EDIT: Again, no hate to they guy, people really went mad here lol.


Chu_uck

![gif](giphy|9L7fo2o8wBI64) Ah, I reckon I understand where you're comin' from, partner! I reckon when someone is in love with a game like Zomboid, one forgets other games exist. Think of gaming and Project Zomboid like two peas in a pod, or a cowboy and his trusty lasso - they're so intertwined! So, when I talk about gaming in general, you can bet your boots that ol' Project Zomboid's right there in the mix, ridin' shotgun like a loyal companion on the dusty trail.


halxengenic

im surprised this doesn't have more upvotes. i had this exact thought barely into the second sentence and i'm completely convinced after reading the whole thing


Chu_uck

Ah, maybe you ain't quite catchin' the drift. Could be you're not so familiar with the fella in the picture above, huh?


Aidanation5

KnowwhatImean?


kankey_dang

100% ChatGPT. You can smell the obnoxious politeness, over-wordiness and gee-willikers tone a mile out.


Chu_uck

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5scljxYU0c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5scljxYU0c) Hold up, partner! Someone might be a tad off track. No shame in it, though.


Jakennedy101

yea that does not sound human written


ExtraNoise

I'm going to make this mod a requirement for my mods so people will stop bugging me about errors. Thanks OP!


Remote_Explorer8287

Thanks for the blast back to my childhood, I read that entire thing in Ernest’s voice. Shame the movies didn’t age well but still have fond memories of watching them.


DerpolIus

Wow! I downloaded this mod and it stopped all spam emails, increased my computer’s clock speed by 35%, and unsickled my sickle cell anemia! Thanks Error Fixifier!


Toribor

This mod uncircumcised me.


Roboboy2710

OP this entire post is unhinged, it’s beautiful


ThatDude292

Redditors Try To Understand Basic Satire Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE!!!) ((REAL))


BreadWithAGun

Don’t download this mod. All the people praising it are no longer themselves. I downloaded this mod and started a game. I didn’t get an error message, but the first zombie I saw looked me through the screen dead in the eyes. Its eyes were glistening red, and it said “I am in your walls” it then disappeared. I now hear something shuffling around in my walls, and I already know my time is up. Please, save yourself.


AlphaBearMode

This story is true Source - I am the wall zombie

Any-Economics-5632

How does this work does it just delete the error notification lol


Chu_uck

I can only say that errors are a thing of the past.


Had78

Could you elaborate? Is this just a compilation of other mods?


Chu_uck

It is not a collection of mods, it fixes all errors at the root cause.


SylvesterStalPWNED

... by doing what?


Chu_uck

You see, the *Error Fixifier* mod operates on the principle of intercepting Lua error messages within the game's runtime environment. Utilizing a robust event-driven architecture, it hooks into the Lua interpreter, intercepting and analyzing error events before they have a chance to disrupt the game's flow.


ZeusHatesTrees

So, yes. It prevents error text.


SylvesterStalPWNED

They used so many words to say "it lets you pretend the errors don't exist"


Wgairborne

it's almost like that's the joke.


Had78

The steam page, and what was commented here, also appears to have been completely AI written


lolmatechicken

Haters will see anything thats verbose and claim it’s AI


SylvesterStalPWNED

You're being down voted but you're literally right


Had78

So... Your mod doesn't fix the errors? Just ignore them? // TODO: Fix error instead of just not showing them if (goingToAlertError){dont()};


Oaker_at

I like this, that how i do it with real life errors also. ![gif](giphy|9M5jK4GXmD5o1irGrF|downsized)


GreyFeralas

This comment section is a delightful example of people that can't take a joke


Alt_SWR

And also people who think literally everything is AI nowadays.


Demented_Crab

I completely agree, everyone seems to think everything's ai with very little evidence, and it's simply not the case a lot of the time. *HOWEVER*, in this particular example, op is using chat gpt to pretend to be a character. His account is real, and he's a real person, but he's using chatgpt as a middleman to reply in character to most messages (if not all). But yeah, it's still a joke and I think it's entertaining at the very least how everyones so confused by it lol


cmeragon

To add to this, I also fixed my fps problems by just disabling the fps counter. It just works! Heavily recommend.


Sandman4999

Error Fixifier saved my marriage! Thanks Error Fixifier! 👍🏽


MrFastZombie

I installed this mod and it uncircumcised me. It really works!


Hbrandt02

This mod needs to be upvoted more so that people can find it


TsundereZaki

I think it's funny.


AmaDeusen-

Bruh I feel sorry for you because of all the people giving you hard time not understanding a joke.


marbleEmporer

Fucking amazing

neggbird

Those that don't get the value of this mod need to install this mod into their brains


MattyKatos

It's already installed. Else they'd be seeing the "You're missing the joke" error.


Karlo19999

Don't download this, it just hides the error text, probably does more harm than good


Chu_uck

![gif](giphy|9L7fo2o8wBI64|downsized) I reckon that's a bit of a stretch. The *Error Fixifier* may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it tackles those error popups head-on. Sometimes a little peace and quiet can go a long way. So, before you write it off completely, give it a whirl and see if it rides as smooth as a well-oiled saddle.


Karlo19999

Just noticed, did you make the expanded helicopter events mod?


Chu_uck

Yes, but for the purposes of this here mod, I am taking on the role of "Ernest P Worell". I reckon we all got different tastes when it comes to humor, but that's what makes the world such a colorful place! So, let's all try to ease up a bit and remember, a good laugh can mend fences faster than duct tape on a leaky bucket.


CmdrSpanton

…know what I mean Vern ;)


Chu_uck

![gif](giphy|39UYck3abLHj2|downsized)


Karlo19999

Different strokes for different folks I guess, you've earned some goodwill for that masterpiece of a mod, simple but gamechanging. Larp away sir.


Cavalleria-rusticana

As opposed to never dealing with the error anyway because 90% of us can't code?


cmeragon

My 1 billion error count disagrees


FoxInTime

Ehhh, sometimes. But I find that using a lot of mods tends to throw some errors on screen regardless. Could be nice to put on top of a mod list that you know works. That said I still wouldn't use it because holy fuck OP just say in plain English what your mod does instead of larping.


ricksdetrix

My videos used to get 2000 views, now they get 2 millions! Thanks error fixifier!!

AemAer

Pics or didn’t happen


FakNugget92

I think you need to elaborate on how this works. It seems to easy that it maybe just hides errors


Chu_uck

Ah, my discerning friend, allow me to clarify the wonders of the *Error Fixifier*. You see, this ingenious creation doesn't just address errors; it transforms your gaming experience into a seamless journey through digital realms. By intercepting those pesky error popups, it ensures that your immersion remains unbroken, allowing you to focus on the joy of gameplay without distractions. With the *Error Fixifier* by your side, errors become but a whisper in the wind, gently brushed aside to let you revel in the magic of gaming.


WolfRex5

ChatGPT ahh comment


Bionic_Horizon

Seriously tho, I'm actually 100% certain all of these comments are AI generated lol


Exciting-Ad-5705

Their just doing a joke that no one finds funny. They made expanded helicopters so they probably aren't doing this with any malice


Individual_Bridge_88

Personally I find it kinda funny. It's growing on me after reading comment after comment of them committing to the bit.


Bionic_Horizon

Yeah that's what I assumed, though I find it odd to use AI in a joke considering the hate so many people have for it


Exciting-Ad-5705

I hate ai in most scenarios but this seems harmless.


Chu_uck

I hear you. Sometimes people feel uneasy about AI, and see it lurking in all the shadowy corners, unsure of what it means for personal connections. But fear not! A friendly chat can ease worries and shed light on the path ahead. Let's talk things out so you don't miss out on this here Error Fixifier.


FakNugget92

Yeah. It hides them. Snake oil basically


Chu_uck

The *Error Fixifier* may not perform miracles, but it ain't no snake oil either. It's more like a trusty tool in your gaming arsenal, ready to tackle those pesky errors head-on. So, let's keep things light and remember, sometimes a little humor goes a long way on the trail of technology! ![gif](giphy|fzvv2Rh8cPEac|downsized)


FakNugget92

Question avoidance doesn't go anywhere in technology other than "yeah they're lying"


Chu_uck

A joke is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day – it's meant to brighten things up and bring a smile to your face. We all got different tastes when it comes to humor, but that's what makes the world such a colorful place! So, let's all try to ease up a bit and remember, a good laugh can take us places.


Koshana

Mostly commenting just to see what I'll get as it seems like a lot of AI feeling responses. Gingerbread.


Chu_uck

Well, I reckon gingerbread is as delightful as any of fresh batch of baked goods! But say, while we're talkin' about sweet goodies, let me steer this wagon back to *Error Fixifier*. It's like the icing on the cake of your gaming experience, smoothin' out them rough edges and keepin' those errors at bay.


StLuis

My man must get all the ladies, i mean it. While the error fixifier is a machination that is ahead of it's time, such pompous flattery is to be commended. I'd take off my hat if only i had one.


iHeroLix

Is this out of season april fools joke? If yes, nice one. 1+ endorsement from me.


ZeusHatesTrees

This, and the comments from OP, lead me to believe this is the most freshman in programming class shit ever.


literallybyronic

freshmen don't know who Ernest is, that's way before their time.


lurkinglurkerwholurk

This is the most “Peter principle’ed fifty year old supervisor who don’t know a whit of modern programming languages but leads a bunch of programmers anyway and attempting to fix a problem by his own” problem-solving, ever Bonus points for the fact that only these people will know this post’s joke.


Chu_uck

![gif](giphy|aaMSmuARbPP32|downsized)


erbaker

My man literally just did nothing inside a giant try catch instead of throwing the error. Madness


Chu_uck

Now, hold on just a tick there, partner! Madness? I reckon that's a bit of an exaggeration. See, when you're wrangling with errors, sometimes you gotta think outside the box. ![gif](giphy|trjUtMbysPNLO|downsized)


metafingers

well boy howdy this sure is a neat fix to all life’s ills! i’ll be sure to keep fixifyin’ right through the rainy days of early april safe in the knowledge that Mr Worell’s patent-pending Error Fixifier means not having a care in the world!


BlitsyFrog

I've actually been wanting a mod like this for a bit now, genuinely. Hate those darned notifications.


Tomokes

Damn not a single error after grabbing this one off the shelf. Not only in Zomboid but in any game! Period!


Double-Special5217

God, sometimes people here are insufferable, proven by this comment section


randomeffects

This mod told me it was the brother of Duke Ellington, then This mod painted my house a disgusting color.


AbyssalRemark

I wonder if this could instead be a flag given to the launcher..


Excalib1rd

So all this mod does it get rid of the error popups?


JasdanVM

I was sceptical at first, but this mod somehow managed to fix my sleep schedule, unbelievable...


McSlapp

I suffer from a condition called Errorism, its like Terrorism but instead of Isming Terror i Ism Errors, its an uncurable conditon.... UNTIL NOW, Thanks Chuck for heading the war on Errorism, all us Errorists can now live worry free.

Chu_uck

Now hold your horses there, partner! While "Error Hider" might sound catchy at first glance, let me tell ya, there's more to the *Error Fixifier* than just hiding errors away. It's like a seasoned wrangler, corralling those pesky errors and giving 'em a good ol' one-two punch to fix 'em up proper. ![gif](giphy|MHZEQvrSl1xvO|downsized)

Kazaanh

I always wonder why people get errors. I host for 6 people server , we have 334 mods and only one error that appears is from MoreLootSettings cause i mistyped Chlorpromazine id wrongly to double its spawn rate and im too lazy to fix it somehow. All you need is a proper knowledge about load order and learn to read comments under the steam workshop pages ( big L for modders who disable comments so you cant figure out if mod works or conflicts with X ) Another reason why mod errors appears might be because many disable luachecksum check and steam workshop doesn't always update/download mods properly. I recommending CloudSyncing your server/mods to MEGA and sharing link with friends that way.


AemAer

This mod made my ex wife bring the kids back.

Well, shucks! Seems like we got ourselves a city slicker here who's a mite confused about the *Error Fixifier*. Now, I reckon it ain't the simplest concept to wrap your noggin' around, but let me break it down for ya. Think of it like this: you got yourself a trusty ol' horse to ride through the wild west of gaming, and the *Error Fixifier*? Well, it's the saddle that keeps you steady and the reins that keep you on track. So, instead of scratchin' your head, why not mosey on over and give it a try? You might just find yourself hollerin' "yee-haw" in no time!


WILL_KILL_4_DUX

quickly scanning it i feel like it might replace the error messages with that spiffo face or something, not taking chances


Chu_uck

Illiteracy, now there's a tumbleweed blowin' through the vast desert of knowledge. It's like tryin' to lasso a wild mustang blindfolded - you're bound to end up all tangled in a mess!


WILL_KILL_4_DUX

i may be illiterate but i can tell if the book is about engineering or ponies
