JaxTeller718 is proud to present his latest venture The Vanilla Project. This mod brings back old changes and removals from previous Alphas.
The purpose of this mod is to compliment A20 and its new features by incorporating older features and items. This will not dramatically alter or change the new alpha experience rather it will present the alpha as it would be if removals had not occurred. Consider this a companion DLC.

needs a update
Wait, is the UI the old UI from alpha 8 and lower? The one with the minimap with the health, hunger, and thirst?
First version of this mod is good but every change from 1.0 onwards is bad. Like having to craft planks and different ammo for pipe weapons? And bringing back looting EVERY zombie. YIKES. This is a masochism mod now lmao.
it is the new version of revenhearst ?
It’s a completely new project. Inspired by old Alpha’s of the game. So no…
Is this for the pc, consoles or both? I have noticed the writer of the article didn’t mention that.
Are there mods for console?
Some Suggestions if its not already added maybe you could add the sliding jail doors you could shoot through or log spikes or maybe the ability to loot zombies or the crafting grid or the forge molds. You could also see if you can add the old thirst and hunger ui from the og version of the game you could bring back reinforced concrete or bring back gardening hoes for farming or the old wood costs for wood spikes. (Sorry for the many Suggestion’s)
I love that someone is making a mod that’s brings back these old features! A lot of this stuff shouldn’t have been removed anyway but oh well.
When are they going to update the console version? I love the game but it really needs to have what the pc version has!!
Would love an update on Xbox I have the game just sitting there I would buy it again if it was fixed. Waiting with crossed fingers
Don’t hold you’re breath. Consoles don’t support mods and has not been updated in years due to them not having publishing rights anymore. It will probably be YEARS, if they even update it at all, ever.
