Darkness Falls: They mostly come out at night...

Alright folks. It's here. It's done. It's probably still got some minor issues, but it's playable.

Darkness Falls V4 is now out!

If you have been playing the DEV builds, you need to make sure that your /Mods folder is TOTALLY deleted. No exceptions. You will also NEED to start a new save. No exceptions.

This will work on 20.1 (which I believe is stable at the time of this post), or 20.2 (which will be stable later according to TFP).

There are no more client/server builds. One build works for both.

Patch notes are extra thicc, so they're here: https://pastebin.com/NbLtwnT1

Alt Download Link: https://gitlab.com/KhaineGB/darkness-falls-a20/-/tree/main (click the icon next to clone and then zip)

And a couple of questions from the discord that are important here.

YES YOU NEED EAC OFF!!!
NO RWG DOESN'T WORK!!!
Awesome, thank you.

 
Then it's not done yet. When it's done, it turns into a lootable container
Its been probably 10 game days already and there is a chicken on the roof.  How long is it supposed to take?  All you have to do so craft it and place it correct?  Nothing else needs to be done does it? 

 
Damn, them notes is dummy thicc!

Thanks Khaine, you're a goddamn treasure.


Seriously! How can you get this much done in 5 weeks (perhaps you work on some things post A19 release?) and TFP seem to do 1/4 of this in 10 months between Alphas. You are amazing and well..TFP...not so sure where they spend all their efforts. (?)

I was already working on a lot of it in A19. I just needed to port it over and get it working.

I'd actually been working on this for about 10 months. ;)

 
Thank you so much Khaine, once DF has scared the crap out of you even once vanilla 7D2D is nice but .....  You're a legend !

And you weren't kidding about the patch notes being extra thicc, dang !!!

That's been a issue for a while, certain objects unload when you get close to them. Only seems to be a visual glitch, as you can still interact with them.

Couple of things I've noticed Khaine, the tires seem to have a much, much higher chance to give tires, and often two at once. Also seeing far more roaming NPC's than before, not that it's an issue. Also, I saw that you corrected trader locations to not have all working work stations, does Razor not count? Everything worked there.

Turn occlusion off.

Tyres are set to 30% but giving them all the time and I dont know why.
Razor doesnt coun't.

 
Hey Khaine! Huge fan of your mod, but don't have a lot of experience with installing mods and stuff.

I want to be able to keep the vanilla install, but also your DF mod, without having to move the mods folder each time I want to play the vanilla (because I play with friends that like the vanilla). 

Is there a way to do this? 

 
when i crafted career book i get two book , and seems like all crafting items are doubled  in b36 , is this bug or game balance? 

and in DF Wooden door can sell 20$ only use 4 wood is insan so i can get 40k money only use one day this breaks the game.

Just copy 7 days files from steam folder into a different folder and copy mod files into it, you will have both vanilla and DF. Don't forget to launch DF from the modded 7 days folder

This! I have like 3 copies of my 7 Days directory for diff overhauls and mod combos.  Never work on your original copy of 7 Days, always make a copy, that way you can still play old versions of 7Days/Mods without worrying Steam will update :D

Then create a shortcut to the new folders' 7DaysToDie.exe using the LOVELY Darkness Falls icon provided (darknessfalls.ico) and bam job done :D

Damn I never even thought that was an option... I've just chucked a copy in my Programs directory and have it working now :)

Steam will still show you as playing 7 Days too (I seem to recall) so it kind of acts just the same but you have control of those new directories.

Shortcuts make it super easy to load each version.
