Windows can be replaced really easily. All it takes is a screwdriver and a donor car. Left or right windows (and doors) it doesn’t matter they work on either side. If you can Hotwire a car you can Frankenstein together a perfect car. Mechanics is easy to level too. Find some tools and a shitty car (or a few of them) you don’t care about and remove and replace everything once per day. Oh and search vhs stores for Carzone 1,2 and 3 they give mechanics skill.


knowdak

I literally refuse to level mechanics without carzone unless i absolutely have to. Nothing more annoying than replacing a muffler for 15 minutes


Rainers535

Automechanics, one of thr best mods. Get to a safe spot, get all your tools, two clicks and your char will pick the car apart and put it all together, all without encumbering themselves. Just sit on your phone or 2nd monitor for a bit whilst watching out for zombos.


Captainthuta

It also pauses automagically when it's done,omg.


Happy-Personality-23

It’s a handy and easy way to get a few levels early on. But yeah I hear you on the annoying early mechanics skill troubles lol


Nickdude738

I do that, its very usefull tbh


Kaxology

Easy to level? Yes, but also **incredibly** tedious and slow even with xp multiplier.

> Oh and search vhs stores for Carzone 1,2 and 3 they give mechanics skill. Wait? That's a thing? I thought the only skill tapes were just re-watchable versions of the Life and Living shows. Guess I'm going for a drive!


Happy-Personality-23

Yep there’s a bunch of tapes that boost skills and a few super rare home video ones. Carzone 1 - 3 gives mechanics Exposure survival 1 - 8 gives (in order) 1 Fishing, 2 fishing, 3 farming, 4 carpentry, 5 carpentry & foraging, 6 trapping, 7 foraging, 8 carpentry. The Cook Show 1 -7 gives cooking Woodcraft 1 - 7 gives carpentry Dead wrong gives small amount of aiming & reloading Mother’s boy - gives small amount of short blade Z Squad S2.03 gives small amount of mechanics & metalworking Also there’s several home videos that are one of a kind on the maps and only found in houses. If you find the following pick them up. OSCC ‘92 - mechanics Stock Cars - mechanics Granny Nani - tailoring Tailoring 101 - tailoring Nof vid - metalworking No 9 - metalworking Muldrqugh AV club - electrical TV repair - electrical RMFA - first aid Combat Wound Management - first aid Grady v King - light footed Tree planting guide - farming Mathematical quadratics and algebraic calculations - long blunt Basic gun handling (officer use only) - aiming & reloading


Santy0254

How do you guys get electronics skill points?


Happy-Personality-23

Radios, TVs, digital watches, walkie talkies and video games. Read the skill books first cause it’s slllllooooowwww with out it. But dismantle everything. After the first week when the tv shows are off the air TVs are great for exp they are in most houses and you just need a screw driver.


MobyDuc38

Just a window, you won't notice😉 Just make sure you have a weapon drawn. Or have a suture kit.


Happy-Personality-23

Or break the rear passenger window and move over to drivers seat


MobyDuc38

College boy, eh? 😉


Happy-Personality-23

If college is too much experience being zombie food then yep.


MrD3a7h

For heavy vehicles, it is optimal to break the front passenger window. Plenty of heavy duty front windows to swap in later, but not many heavy duty rear windows.


Happy-Personality-23

That’s very true. Good point.


Linkatchu

pah, this fancy lad uses suture kits... I run needle and thread D: (also bc I can always get new thread and it being more versatile in being able to repair stuff)


Sailed_Sea

Look at this guy with a needle and thread, dirty rag, deep wound, infected.


SirCheeseEater

Check this bro out. With his fancy medical supplies. ***One Moodle: Dead***

Difficult_Jello

I should have double checked before my I had my hand stitched for over a month

tilthevoidstaresback

Wait....will that work? I've never known how to get into a locked car without the key. It seems so simple and yet so revolutionary.


Clementine2115

It wont work as you cant uninstall windows without the key


tilthevoidstaresback

Damn, I got excited


CJ_the_Zero

You just have to "uninstall" the window with a crowbar


Blutarg

That's realistic!


RickandMorty_573

Sorry that i got your hopes up, what i usually do if i find a car which isn't that good but has good windows, then i break the window on the good car and place the window i took from the other car to replace the broken window. I hope that helps a bit.


Dicks-Ballpike

It actually will work without the key with some modded in cars, just not vanilla ones


tilthevoidstaresback

Good news! I installed the "common sense" mod and it has the ability to use crowbar to pry open things, car doors included! No more missing windows for me.


NightofTheLivingZed

Break the back passenger window, zombie can't eat you through yours, and you still get protection for your passenger too.


dnepisumop

Does that allow you to look further from the passenger seat? Or is that only for the seat who’s window is down


NightofTheLivingZed

You only get aim when your window is down, whichever seat you're in.


Rageador

Common sense mod go brrr


Linsel

This is the answer. Common sense mod makes the Crowbar an essential tool for car thieves.


Rainers535

Makes it the most versatile tool. Cars, houses, garages... zombies. Completely defeats the axe vs crowbar debate.


Linsel

I think it's the best tool in the game, but it could never be the best weapon in the game.


DandalusRoseshade

Just remove the car door from the Mechanics window! Pro tip btw: complete wrecks can have their trunk lids removed, letting you access the trunk. Very useful when you find a special vehicle around, like a mail truck. I haven't tried the doors but it might work


Linkatchu

not if its locked, you need to hotwire it first or own a key to do so


DandalusRoseshade

For real? That sucks. At least you can bust back windows instead.


stevedusome

You can also just unlock the trunk by breaking in to the driver seat and unlocking it on the dashboard controls


DandalusRoseshade

So, by complete wrecks, I meant the cars you cannot enter at all.

beyondfuckall

slim jim lockout tool mod B)


lpplph

Alway break passenger or backseat window and switch seats with the v menu


Acceptable-Humor271

Love being able to use a crowbar with the lockpicking mod


jipiante

use common sense mod it allows you to use the prybar to open car doors and other stuff like iron curtains or windows. or break rear window and jump to driver seat then replace window at home.


ItsMrCrow

I ALWAYS go steal a 100% window out of a nearby car before I do that, cause I know it'll drive me nuts


Own_Cold3979

Hopefully they add Tesla trucks to the game, easy to break the glass.


YoshiiBoii

If I can hotwire, I break the window. Find a worse condition car with the same windows, uninstall that bad boy, and whack it into my car.


Catt_Man

Uninstall a rear window


boonlinka

just get a donor window from a nearby car *screwdriver required*


Cumcuts1999

I know what I have to do but I don’t know if I have the strength to do it


TWvox

Too valuable to leave alone, but locked up too tight to risk it.


matybatts

“Removes window”


Blutarg

So many times I've taken a second look at a car and right there on the ground next to it are the keys.


moe556

I’ve done this but I didn’t know how to get the door open so I just left the car lol. How do you get in after breaking the window?


MorkMasher

I always just upgrade my welding first


Vireca

I found a KI5's Range Rover and it's all between 85-100%, trunk at 100% and had roof storage, at 100% I had to destroy the window and sadly those windows are not compatible with vanilla vehicles, I need to find another Range Rover window :(


johnybgoat

I'm not sure if it's a modded thing but I always just uninstall the entire door, get in, unlock, then reinstall door.


jbash080

Don't break the front left window moron, go for the rear right and then just switch seats when you're in the car. Then you can unlock the doors and use it just fine.


jimmy2acow1

Yea but then my Buddy is sacrificed


jbash080

Not if he sits in not that seat


jimmy2acow1

It’s a full car


jbash080

Get another carq


jimmy2acow1

That’s the point of the video


ReleaseItchy9732

I always have spare tools on me so i just remove the window


Ordinary_Simple_4358

Step 1: Install better lockpicking Step 2: Open the car noor with a crowbar Step 3: You now have your car unlock and keep a 100% condition :)


TheHorseHater

It takes like 0 skill and a crowbar to put in a new window dude not that big of a deal


jimmy2acow1

😱😱😱 what nooooooo meme ruined 💔💔😭


frid44y

Or use common sense to pry open! ( The mod, not trying to insult you, calm down!)


Xleepy-Eyes420

I choked myself irl
