A16 - Tin'sMod: The Dying Lands.

Launcher news: March 6th 2018

Just want to give a quick heads up but if you loaded the "Body Parts" edition from the launcher, something happened and it only used the original "The Dying Lands" install.

So you'll need to redo the install to get the Body parts edition from the launcher.

pls and ty!

 
Probably need to start a new game yea? We had it loaded on the server last night and restarted....it didn't seem any different. That would explain it.

yep. Terribly srry for the inconvenience. :(

 
Tin .. hoping you are having a good day

I have a request ..... Could you make Headshots a thing again ... 30 to the head of a "feral" soldier is a bit much .. Even if it is a feral and this is using AK level 256 ... I don't mind 5/6 .. but not a full clip.

Thank you .. the Old Gamer .. :02.47-tranquillity:

Have Fun and Enjoy

Which version? Normal or the "Body Parts" edition?

Either / Both ........ But seriously Normal would be ok ..

I played "Body Parts" for a bit and after spending 2 hours "real time" clearing 1/2 of the school (Nav-game school) forgot exact name. I stopped playing and went back to normal game.

Anyway .. I like to be able to do a horde night without going into the CM and getting more ammo .. My 14 day Horde Night I used up more than 1500 rounds .. I know you want something different in game play .. But when you have to unload a clip into the head of a Zed just to kill one is a bit much.

Have Fun and Enjoy ... I still play and having fun .. but I would like to have More FUN .. LOL ....... the Old Gamer .. :02.47-tranquillity:

PS: of the 8 different 7D2D games that I have played or still playing .. this is the only one that it takes more then 5 shots to the head to kill .. I'm normally 97% 2 shot kill. Just a thought

Cool. I can make some adjustments but i'll do it on the "Body Parts" version first since that's newer and won't affect game play that much since long term games haven't been established yet. I'll also only increase the ranged weapon head shot damage though.

 
***Update Mar 7th 2018 *** (only for the "Body Parts" edition)

Changed ranged weapons to fully utilize head shot bonuses.

Also did a minor patch to fix fodder class zeds (would have been been a very boring bloodmoon without it).

If you are not using the launcher to update the mod you will need to re D/L for the "Body Parts" to get the fix.

Again this is just for the "Body Parts" edition.

 
Thank You Tin

I'll give it another try later after you have had time to adjust.

Also I was thinking to be Honest .. I play all my 7D2D games in Survivalist mode. ...... the Old Gamer :02.47-tranquillity: .. :smile-new:

No worries. :)

 
Wow, that was a hard start, Day 1 (BodyParts). After 12 Ingame (Safezone Stop or Something) i had 1 Bear, 2 Cops and a lot of normal Zeds. Need More Beer or More ..... I Don't Know. Lool.

Just saw this and will give it another try and see how it goes .. After I get done with the 21 day Horde on WOW in a bit.

Just got my new floating base finished in time for it .. he-he

lol nice! The good thing is you'll level quickly ;)

I still have plans I need to get done in the "Body Parts" edition but it'll take some time to get it working well.

Yeah, i'd need a pint or two after such a victory ;)

I'm still wandering around for minibike book in regular TDL. Gonna have to up my zombie horde count for 28th day horde though... It's getting too easy with my sniper rifle and machete... Last horde count is 152.

haha..

Yeah, the regular version, since it doesn't have a ton of book stores, makes it harder to find. I might tweak the biker zed gore block to drop it a touch easier.

My opinion on that is some extent it's way tougher compared to vanilla - because there are a lot more zombies, ghouls and they act differently - while on the other it's easier when you get some decent weapons, because you hit hard with them from the start. Maybe SMG and pistol act differently.

I don't sweat as much now while i have my machete and for some tougher enemies i have my sniper rifle - one shot to the head for zombie cop (irradiated cops need two or three) and full clip of 5 shots to the head for zombie bear. Other zombies i can melee (although i sometimes melee cops) with the machete and sniper rifle one-shots them in the head.

Haven't had much time recently, but need to find that recipe ;) It's mostly gonna be running through the remaining crack-a-book small stores i have in the big town i'm in (haven't looted everything yet with my base building, etc.). The further away goal will be to create a base in the wilderness from grounds up, but that's only with a minibike. I'm just a bit tired of running around with coffee to dig up treasures or secure nodes...

 
Minor update to my fight against the recipes (additional correction as my recent horde was 21st day, nearing my 28th day horde):

Spent quite a lot of time yesterday trying to find the books for minibike and for some guns (apparently i still lack a few). I traveled to all 3 traders i know of (1 in my city and 2 in a close by cities, others are way further for travel, checked the map in Editing Tools), cleared out a big flat crack-a-book store (had mostly paper on the shelves) and explored even a working stiff workshop just in case. Not bothering with ruined or burnt houses, diners, hair saloons, churches or factories. I did clear out a mail building, a pawn shop and a fire station in the past though.

My scavenging skills are very low, had 31 and buffed manually to 40 to get the quality goods skill to 2nd level (maybe that will let more loot to spawn?). Secret stash on 2nd level, but still no recipe in the trader wares (i blame it on bad luck really and need a few game days to refresh the wares to see more loot to buy). Maybe you can buff how much exp you get to scavenging (or limit the amount you need for new levels) and it will enable having better (and more) loot faster?

On my first playthrough on TDL i had exquisite luck with having a crack-a-book skyscraper in the city i went to, but haven't seen any type of skyscraper anywhere (even on Editing Tools map). After the horde i'll change the length of days from 60 to 120 minutes and will go on a travelling spree to far away cities to check out the layouts there. Maybe i'll get the minibike book along with parts for the auger, nailgun and maybe chainsaw...

EDIT: So yeah... still a long way to go i guess :3
