A16.4 was great. Then they started fixing things that weren't broken and since 16.4 there have been a few improvements and a few hundred changes for the worse. In a paragraph or two, I could tell TFP exactly what they could do to renew the organic enthusiasm this game used to have, but they have...

Went to a Tier 2 Clear quest at Bell Lake. The quest marker was visible on my compass but did not appear in the area of grass that it should have. From several meters away, you would see a bouncing quest marker that looked like it was underground, but once you got close it would disappear...

In previous Alphas, quest tier progression was logical and worked. You did X number of Tier 1 quests from one trader, then that trader would give you a "Special" quest to establish a trade route, where you would find a new trader that would offer Tier 2 quests. This continued up to Tier 5 or...

Line 5140 of entityclasses.xml reads as <property name="MoveSpeedAggro" value="2.1, 2.1"/> <!-- Used when player in vehicle --> Just change "2.1, 2.1" to "1, 1" Then do the same on Line 5176 for the Radiated Vulture. <property name="MoveSpeedAggro" value="1.5, 1.5"/>

Seriously? When did it go from 3 cloth fragments to 50, who lost their job for changing it so drastically, and who lost their job because they couldn't figure out how to change it back to a reasonable number?

Hey guys, I used to mod this game heavily in the xml's to suit my tastes but haven't played for a couple years and have just come back to try the new Alpha. I'm liking it so far, but I personally think the progression by reading books is way too slow, so I looked through the xml's to try and...

Dammit, I forgot how clever and crafty he is. I've got a truckload of coal already saved up from a lifetime of being an @%$#. Maybe we could be business partners?

You heard it here first! Water pots 12/25/23 or earlier! Thanks for the info leak, Roland.

So Madmole goes from being very active on the forums to absolutely not even visiting here since July 2nd, and there's no explanation? I'm glad to hear that at least it appears he's still alive and hopefully in good health, but nobody has a clue why he just stopped visiting his own site over 3...

Haven't been here in a long time, but was going to try out A21. Noticed that Madmole's last post was back in June and he hasn't visited the forum at all since July 2nd. I couldn't find any announcements regarding his involvement in this game, so wanted to ask you all what happened to Joel. Also...

I haven't played this in a long time and just came back and started a new game and the first thing I noticed is that my fps is capped at 60fps for some reason. I did some googling and tried a few things like disabling vsync both in game and in Nvidia control panel, but nothing has changed. I...
