[A16] Merry ComSens - A 7 Days to Die Winter Project Mod

[Beelzybub]

Sure, we can strip out the Holiday stuff, and release with just the snowFill mod.

Cool! How hard would it be to integrate a bigger backpack deal? I tried but replacing the assembly-csharp.dll messed up the game.

Yes, you'd need to build using snowFill mod and the bigger back pack mod. The Rain UI, I don't think, currently supports the bigger back pack out of the box, but I'll see what I can do.

There are no known plans for future mods like this. These are just proofs of concepts if we come up with a way to change how you look and experience the world. They are meant to spark the imagination and let other people think outside of the box when it comes to modding.

If we come up with a unique concept that no one else is doing it, we may do another one.

Can voices, sound effects, singing be turned off? The volume and frequency at least for me distracts from the immersion.

Thanks

The -NoNightmare option has all that turned off. They are baked into the Nightmare entities..

is there a way you guys can do a terminator mod sphere?

Terminator would look ridiculous spinning like a ballerina...

 

[Blazer777]

meant a completely separate mod kind of like the terminator movie franchise is set up

I don't understand can I turn off or not? If I can how would I do it? This is my only complaint the mod is awesome, love the immersion.

Thanks

In the Mod Launcher, there's a WinterProject and WinterProject-NoNightmares. The WinterProject-NoNightmares has the night time creatures gone, plus their sounds

Hey SphereII - with the update not generating skyscrapers in towns anymore, is this going to require a map reset?

I think the only real building I noticed causing lag was the apartment building. The higashi building and building site seem alright, only when I look directly at the apartment it seems to go a bit wonky

I think the POIs are kind of hit or miss. I didn't have an issue with the apartments or sky scrapers on my computer, but others did. If we know the name of those buildings, I can remove them too.

I think a new world would be necessary for the new rwgmixer to be used. Otherwise, you'll still get the skyscrappers.

Those spikes look way too clean

Aye, they're brand spankin' new! :chuncky:

Maybe you need to bring back the old ambient sounds from the earlier beta's <EG>

Wow. That town lag is no joke. There is one of those mid-sized apartment complexes or hotels near me, and looking in it's direction causes the game to slow to a crawl. Doesn't seem to be going away either. I think it might be trying to collapse...

Might want to remove those from the prefabs, as they are a major drain.

It's very likely to be snowFill doing calculations to see if it can survive or not. There'd be a lot of snowFill blocks in the hotel, and they have to clear themselves out.

maybe consider altering the snowfill blocks sphere so it doesnt cause as much lagg as i do like the mod but cant play it due to too much lagg on a crappy pc and upgrading said pc isnt an option

Altering how?

I've done all the optimizations I can to it. This is just one of the unfortunate "it is what it is" restrictions we need to work with. You could modify the mixer so that there's less than 12 meters of snow to help some, if it's a struggle.
