    PC v1.x Developer Diary

    We noticed that as well with some of the harvesting challenges. You have to be tracking the challenge for it to count. Also, for some of the challenges not all listed options for sources count. Found once you track, you get the hammer/brick collection icon on things that will count for the...

    PC Farming not very viable even with living off the land 3.

    Devs did what they have done before. "Hey, this needs a tweak." Tweak=nurf into the ground. Bow were ok, then they made feathers hard to find AND nurfed the bow's hitting power as well as add additional reload mechanic. Crossbow they added a LONG reload. In A20, there viable again... maybe too...

    PC Which would you pick, helmet light mod or two herbal antibiotics?

    Honey, antibiotic or herbals are hard to get now. Still, Light for me. Just bought 2 Lights day 4 from trader. Can always get cured with a quick death. LOL Just find a handy Z.

    PC Server rental for a noob

    Really don't need much but I'd recommend a separate computer from your gaming rig. Core count only maters if your going to host multiple games. Clock speed of the CPU is more important. Skimp on the video card or just use the motherboard video. SSD helps and 16GB of ram will do you good. I just...

    PC Good random map seeds for A18?

    Running some maps to see what generates for 8K maps. Seeing a pattern but some produce some more interesting maps.

    PC Alpha 17.3 Seeds

    We started a new 17.3 map yesterday and for a lark used "Hand of Fate" as a seed. Our team member for fun ran the previewer on it and we went in. Has a good bit of each biome and have found some larger buildings as well as a good mix of other POI's. So far we have found 3 traders.

    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    I've run both, 1080p and 3840x2160 even on hoard night. Still from my limited testing/formal knowledge, its appears more the engine rather than 7DTD that's the primary limiting factor to frame rate. Looks like once the engine maxes out 2 cores, that's when the frame rate plummets. Same kind of...

    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    I have been running a server for 7DTD as well as my gaming rig. Server is what was my prior gaming rig that's now 7 year old with my current rig having i7-6700k, 16gig, GTX 980TI. I have tinkered with both to see what runs better with 7DTD and other games using the same engine. Clock speed on...

    PC Smart vs Dumb Zombies?

    I'm with Kage here. Zombies are dead bodies that are rotting. Avoiding traps is silly. But then I'll add on that the smart pathing needs some tweaking. Pathing for a weak block and zig zagging to avoid shots seams a bit beyond what a dead brain might do.

    PC How do you like A17 experimental NOW?

    There are positives. Love the new POI's. Love the new detail in the visuals. The perk system still needs tweaks but it can work. RWG is right now circling the toilet bowl. ITs been killed and buggy hardly describes it between hovering POI and trees, roads that are a joke and many other bugs. I...

    PC What do you HOPE to see with the attribute system (without complete scrapping or over

    I'm fine with how perks function to give you improvements to your abilities. Where the issue I have is the number of points needed for the upper levels. As with many things nerfed in A17, its not the single nerf that's the issue. Its the piled up nerfs. Ok, slower to get to many things we got...

    PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

    I have been ok with A17 being so different from A16, I really did expect to be. But what's now wearing on is the huge swings of things in this experimental with what feels like less and less end goal. Are we looking at a perpetual experimental? RWG just feels like its having little hope of...

    PC Pathing idea

    I agree the conga line pathing that's still around in A17, does make things easier. What I see missing and what might spread them out without huge changes to the AI is adding space requirements. Right now and in all previous, the zombies can pack large numbers of zombies into a single block...

    PC Porting World folder to Upgraded Server

    Also check your serverconfig file to make sure your set persistent player. There were changes to the serverconfig file and a number of new settings. If you copied back your old serverconfig file it won't work. Good to copy/backup the save files before upgrading to the latest experimental build...
