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

Where is the sources of coal? Getting ready to start trying to make gun powder and have barely any coal.

According to the XML file describing biomes and sphereii himself - there isn't any source of coal or oil shale. Both are extremely rare resources.

The only coal I've found came from dead trees on top of apache sites. And resource boulders.

 
I have a suggestion for a coal fix - those christmas presents you find around could contain lumps of coal, like you know, being bad for christmas and all means santa sent you coal! :D

For shortages I'd suggest also bumping up how much stuff the trader stocks such as ammo and things. It would make interacting with the trader essential later on, because from him you could get more resources and such.

But then again, maybe the trader wouldn't be able to get stock since you know, he's snowed in :p Hehe

I like it! I pushed the changes to the loot list. Refresh from the launcher for the latest SP.

An official release will be done in the next day or two.

 
** Update time! **

Note: SP play through the Mod Launcher should already be updated, if you have Refresh Mods Automatically checked.

- Slowed down some really aggressive moves by the lumberjack - They are now throttled a bit

- Added blackSanta to the spawning group with a slight bump to spawning rates

- Bumped the seal to spawn a bit more frequently

- Adjusted loot for gifts to provide a source of coal / oil shale

- Removed movement collider off the trees, to make getting around their a bit easier

- Removed duplicate entities

- Fixed null refs when using spikes on some entities

- Fixed the stag's death to be more MP-friendly.

 
sphereii After a while begins to lag. It looks like a memory leak or a problem with UI.

When loading chunks, especially towns and cities, the game lags as the snowFill does it's magic. It's recommended to slow down when entering new areas, and let it catch up. A lot happens, and all optimization attempts have failed :)

Maybe it's because of the huge mountains. There is also a problem with hitboxes. Night monsters must disappear in the morning, do not they? At me they remain and run in the afternoon. Fashion could be interesting, but because of wild lags it is not playable for me.

Edit: Great delays occur not only when traveling, but also when looting, when you close the box

The world is deceptively heavy. If you'd like, you can find ComSens mod in the Mod Launcher, under CratorCreator's section. It'll be the mod without the Nightmares and Snow.

 
... LOL I am enjoying the mod a lot. Though we did get lucky with so many of us and finding a good city. My SP I am still looking for one and those snow storms are making it a huge hardship on it...

I'm not as far along as you, but I'm so screwed at the moment LOL. I lost my torch and I'm half starving with no light or fire. I'm glad I have bullets.

No, it's not that interesting. It seems that top computers can play, and the rest can be licked. There are more saturated fashion, but they do not brake so much. You need to fix the lags. Take away the silly sounds at night, they are annoying.

Thank you for your feed back!

 
Can you write a channel where you are building a cooperative in this fashion? I will not be able to play, although I will look at others.

This mod, as it was with Valoween, are proof of concept mods showcasing new and interesting ideas on how to twist the world and your perceptions on it. It forces you to re-think, and re-adapt the way you interact with the world. Valoween shows how to change atmosphere, custom animations and sounds. The Winter Project introduces a drastically changed landscape with a few unique block features.

It was never designed for any kind of long term play, and will only cater to a select few people to play more than a few days.

I really do appreciate your feedback and your willingness to support this unique modding style, but there are no plans to generate a new mod of this style, unless we come up with another unique mechanic worthy of a standalone mod.

 
sphereii In this thread, players talked about the cooperative game. Is there a video on YouTube or Twitch their joint game in this modification? I'd like to see it.

Here's some videos and links to twitch streamers who have been playing it:

Most people seem to prefer to suffer in solitude :)

 
I'm highly offended you didn't link my videos :p
