Stable Version 0.2.5 (GunPlay Enhanced Version) released!


(Experimental Versions see next post below!)

compatible with 7DTD A17.4 Stable - not with other versions!

​




I can't wait for Borderlands 3 coming to us in September, and you?

Now... but upto then, I have something for you 7DTD Players:

Remember what's being said about Borderlands?

Lock, Load, & Face the Madness

Get ready for the mind blowing Insanity! Play as one trigger-happy Hyperion Agent and take out everything that stands in your way!

With its addictive Action, frantic First-Person Shooter Combat, massive Arsenal of Weaponry, RPG elements and Co-op, BorderlandZ is a breakthrough experience that challenges all the conventions of modern Shooters. BorderlandZ places you in the role of an Agent on the lawless and desolate Area of Navezgane to fight the Zombie Apokalyse, find the Cure and save the whole Humanity... or something like that...
Click to expand...
(uh ... more or less...)

  • Role Playing Shooter (RPS) - Combines frantic first-person shooting action with accessible role-playing character progression in a fully destructable World!
  • Co-Op Frenzy - Fly solo in single player or drop in and out with other Players Co-Op online for a maniacal multiplayer experience
  • Bazillions of Guns - Gun lust fulfilled with rocket-launching shotguns, enemy-torching revolvers, SMGs that fire lightning rounds, and tons more - and not to forget the thousands of additional Gun modifications that will make each Gun a unique among your friends!
  • Radical Game Style - New visual style in a completely destructable Voxel World will create a unique and eye-catching spin on the First Person genre
  • Intense Vehicular Gameplay - Get behind the wheel and engage in intense vehicle driving and flying action!
Click to expand...
(uuuhm okay, also a bit modified...)

But let's have a short go-through the Key Features of the Mod, okay?

  • Three Charakter/Class manifestations including Axton with his Deployable Auto Turret, Salvadore with his Gunzerking Ability and Bricks with his Berserking Massacre Lust!
  • 87 Bazillion... whatever... Now I haven't really counted them all mind you, but we have 255 different Quality states on Guns, Gun Modifiers, Armor and Armor Modifiers (Melee not yet included). But not only this, we have random stats on ALL of them so having a Q220 Weapon is not worse than a Q250 one per default - you will want to check each stat what you do prefer! And this is...
  • The Looting Lust. You will find Tons over Tons of Loot, even your unimaginable big backpack (200(!) Slots) will ever can hold!!! But no Problem, Marcus' Vending Machines are all over the place to give you Coins for any Loot you bring in (besides he doesn't want that piece of sh.t) and you can buy any sorts of Weapons, Mod schematics, Ammo, Armor, Tools, even Food, Ore and Building Supplies
  • The Enemies. Now, what would a Zombie Apokalypse Game be without Zombies? Fast Scout Zombies will be in your Mouth faster than you can cry "ARGHHH", Tanker Zombies will eat your Bullets for Breakfast, and these BOSS Zombies with even their own Weaponry like Rocket launchers, Miniguns, Fire breath, Electric Bolts and more... you will be happy if that's only a 10-Meter-Anaconda what you're facing!
  • Re-designed Gameplay with less Focus on Base Building, Farming and Full Massive Crafting Facilities, but more on Nomadic livestyle with using Workstations in the World on the fly* (* these will need a Power source in a later Patch!)
    Crafting is made more complicated (back pack crafting is mostly outsourced into a new small Workbench which needs to be deployed on the run* (* actual using the upgrade mechanism, later via [E] command similar to the others)


Now, I don't want to spoil all the new things in this Mod for you, but let me say two things at least:

  1. You. Will. Die.... as you will face tons of enemies even already on Day 1!
  2. BUT you will already get dressed up and equipped well to survive already at the beginning!
    Though you still need to find better Gear to survive the next Days... ;-)

What's new in the 0.2.5 update:

See Changelog of Experimental Version, Stable 0.2.5 = Exp2 atm.

What's new in the 0.2.4 update:


Here is a list of included Changes from BorderlandZ 0.2.3 to 0.2.4 : PLEASE RE-CHECK ALL MENU SETTINGS (i.e. DropOnDeath)!!




  • Doubled Spawngroups for HordeNights. People asked, now they get. Don't complain now! ;-)
  • Re-added Heat to all Ranged Weapons. I haven't seen a Screamer in Ages, nope, had to change! But Silenced Weapons are still way way less heat making and the way to go!
  • Changed Light brightness on all Vehicles (inclusive Manux' and Dust2Death's that have this feature) from x10 vanilla down to x3 (was too bright for my eyes)
  • Added 16 and 32 back to Bloodmoon-EnemyCount (for lower end computers)
  • Added many Options back into the Menu Settings, as some were not defaulting correctly - that's a vanilla problem when using different saves/games with different settings!
  • Increased Tanker Zombie health and damage (one-shotting Tankers? no way guys! (besides you have an Epic Toxic Magnum, this DESERVES a One-Shot-Kill-Bonus!)
  • Full Overhaul of all Initial Quest descriptions and Window sizes of Quest tips and Journal entries, now some sort of early Wiki is included when you wanna read!
  • Added TargetBar - Tell me what you think about it! Should it stay or made customizable or even only available as a "mod" for the helmet?
  • Removed <Take> Command from Vehicles. BorderlandZ isn't realistic, but having 3 or more vehicles in the backpack seems ... wrong.... What do you think? Good or Bad?
  • Halfed the Friendly Animal count in all Biomes (I want (wild)life but they also count against the entity max numbers! Seems interestingly WAY more less now...
  • Increased second Trader Quest fulfill requirements ;-) No, you won't get your second ActionSkill as easy as it was ;-)
  • Increased BOSS Damage against Buildings, but not against earth! You wanne be sure in your home? Try better!! (still you have the MENU OPTION to lower the Damage, don't forget that!)
  • Added Quality-Color-TEXT/Description for all tiered Items and Mods, I've left the Quality-NUMBER on the Info-Window for better comparing ;-)
  • Fixed Explosive Weapons Heat generating (were too less, I know you like Torgue Weapons, they are pure FUN, but that should come at a prize at least...)
  • Changed Trader time back to 02:00 - 22:00, meaning 4 ingame hours (10 min realtime on 60 min gamedays) no traders. Sorry guys, you are not meant to camp there !!
  • Upgraded Axton's Auto Turret with a bit more Firepower! (more than worth it now, especially for being immobile!)
  • Increased BOSS Zombie health and damage too, some were just meh and not worth to be called a "Boss". (Still the Giant got way less armor rating than default mod)
  • White TrashCans won't get destroyed after looting anymore
  • Seperated "Showing TargetBar" in another Modlet so you can deactivate when wanted
  • More Bugfixes in localization, quests, recipes and Zombie names
  • Made normal and self-powered Turrets much more resistant - you will need that against the base-wrecking Bosses!!
  • Balancing crafting and upgrade cost of some base blocks
  • Increased Elemental Bonus damage
  • Changed the most eradic Zed walking/running type (6) into a less eradic one (3)
  • Lowered Zombie corpse remove time from 30sec to 7sec, should help a bit with FPS on high entity counts
  • Scout Zombies got a small speed nerf (from 4.0 to 3.5)
  • Some more small balancing all over the place (f.e. prizes, bartering, damage,...)
  • Increased 2nd Action Skill point to Player level 40, this way you need to level up first to get the 2nd level (Reason: People could hit that too fast so that the timer would not activate)
  • Because of MP Server settings, all (Starting and Bonus (Hyperion)) Equipment boxes, bags and cases will now be destroyed upon opening! So take all loot out after opening them!
  • Increased Degradation-Per-Use of Torgue-Weapons A LOT (as a drawback/balance for it's damage/strength)
  • Reduced Coins-Loot from treasure chests, max 65000 per Chest was a bit too much ;-) now we're at 14000 max but you get min 3 (former 2) loot items/groups
  • Increased Starting Player Hardening Buffs, on lower Diffs this is true "god like", but on higher Diffs you still could get in trouble...
  • Reduced Torgue Weapons ROF depending on Weapon type (Pistols, 44Magnum and Shotguns the least, SMG and AK47 the most, while Gunzerking these are still Rocket-Miniguns!)
  • Watch out!! Zombies now can shoot through Bars and Frames too!
  • Updated Mod for A17.3 Changes (Heat, Sound, Buffs, DLL(!)...)
  • Added Support for Japanese Localization thanx to Emu and chiko; Japanese Translation is available as a seperate Download!
  • Updated HDHQ Main files + Modlets to be A17.3 compatible (thanx Dust2Death)
  • Updated Robelotos Custom Zombies to A17.3 Explosion changes
  • Reduced all Weapon HEAT even way below vanilla, otherwise you would get Screamer hordes after every 20 shots you've fired!!
  • Removed XP popup (lower right corner)
  • BUGFIX!! Axton's AutoTurret sometimes wasn't using his whole livetime
  • Added MANUAL Turrets: they do not fire automatically, but need a player to fire, but therefore they are very powerful and needs your steel ammo!
  • Added VISOR Mod to see Zombie/Bandit/Animal and Vehicle Hitbars, but if you don't like Hitbars showing, just don't install that Visor! ;-)
  • Added a Customizing Modlet : "Ruckyz_BORDERLANDZ____Customizing" : here you can change Tree counts, <TAKE> command for vehicles and adjust Starting Equipment for new Player(s)
  • Bugfix Attribute skilling to 9 decreases own Hitpoints to 110
  • Nerfing Head-Dismemberment on Tanker and Boss Zombies
  • Increased Kill-Quest Difficulty ;-) I hope this works, please test!
  • Increased Grandpa's awesome Souce duration to 10min (from 3) but halfed it's effects (still OP imo)
  • Removed Combine-Feature for Workbenches for now, seems to be broken, will investigate that for 0.3 again
  • Added 3 Horde-Kill-Quests. Use only on good CPU/GPU Machines! They are extrem demanding but will give great Loot!
  • Reduced normal Kill-Quest Reward-QUALITY - oh my that was given out only legendary...

QSR - 255 Quality Stats Randomizer

This SDX*)/Modlet increases Quality levels and Tiers from the default 1-6 to 1-255, changes near all available Stats on Weapons and -Modifiers to depend on Quality level and optional semi-randomize them via additional XML attribute!

What does this mean?

Vanilla Weapons (and Tools) are only available in 6 different Quality levels (which are the same as tiers here).

These Weapons do only differ in available Mod slots and max Degradation, but if you have a Quality 2 Pistol or a Quality 4 Pistol both do not differ otherwise!

This mod does

  1. increase Quality diversity to 255 levels / tiers
  2. change near all stats on (ranged) Weapons to a linear progression between Quality 1 and 255 (all Ranged Guns besides Rocket Launcher und Crossbows done, others not yet)
  3. add the optional Semi-Randomizing Feature to any passive_effect ²) and sets them for the above mentioned Weapons


This mod also comes with a Demo-Suitcase with some Pistols and two Modifiers in different Quality levels like shown in the pictures below. Just search in the "Cheat-Menu" for "QSR" and take one of the Suitcases. A few Punches will open it already; there you will also find a Vending Machine to sell the same test items (to show quality colors etc.)

²) Example:

Code: 
<passive_effect name="MaxRange" operation="perc_add" value="0.0,0.25" tier="1,255" [color="#FFFF00"]rand="0.2"[/color]/>
this means the Stat MaxRange will increase between Quality 1 and 255 from 0.0 to 0.25(=25%) with a semi random factor of 20% (that is up/down max 10% each)

(note though that each Quality 254 Pistol f.e. has the same "semi random" values every time one player get that "same" Quality 254 weapon! So what the "Randomizer" does, is change the linear progression to a more wild diffuse but still deterministic one!)







*) this Mod is not yet in SDX Format, just the modified Assembly-CSharp.dll will be provided;

This means, the Assembly-CSharp.dll, located inside the Archive in a Folder called _DLL needs to be copied to the right location manually!

The right location is : xxx\SteamApps\common\7 Days To Die\7DaysToDie_Data\Managed

(but make a backup of the original file beforehand!!!)

I will change this in the future but as many things do change very fast I won't do it now, sorry for the inconvenience

QSR - Borderlands Quality Colors

That's just a Quality Color Replacer for the Vanilla Colors into Borderlands style Quality Colors as seen here :

https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Weapons

Can be used as Standalone.

QSR - No Quality Level text

This one just hides the Quality level text shown on various Windows to increase/intensify Looting and Comparing Fun and doesn't kid you anymore (like when higher Quality level weapon still has worse weapon stats than a lower one!!) ;-)

Highly recommended for use with the QSR Main Mod!



here both Addon-Mods can be seen incl. the 3 different orange legendary colors...

Bigger Storage

Inspired and partly based on Stallionsdens and stedman420s Modlets, here is my Version of a bigger Storage in Backback, Storage boxes and Vehicles.

These are the changes:

  1. Increase Player Backpack from 9x5 (45) to 20x10 (200)
  2. Increase Storage Containers from 8x9 (72) to 13x14 (182) (max 14x15 (210))
  3. Increase Vehicle Storage from 9x10 (90) to 13x14 (182) (max 14x15 (210))
  4. increase Perk PackMule from 4-6 to 20 slots each
  5. increase ArmorStoragePocket-Mods from 1,2,3 to 3,6,9 slots respectively
  6. Re-added Combine feature (on Workbenches only)
  7. Some UI-Changes, but this is WiP and can change


Note1: There is a description.txt included, but you need to apply the changes yourself if you want. Therefore add the provided changes at the BEGINNING of the vanilla description.txt file!

Note2: Internal the values are even set to an higher amount to be compatible to the bigger sizes for 21:9 screen resolutions

I will add that AddOn-Mod when I release a playable BorderlandZ-Gunplay-Mod

Hint: If you want to change it for yourself to 21:9 screen resolutions,

you need to edit the file loot.xml in my Modlet and change:

Code: 
<set xpath="/lootcontainers/lootcontainer[@id='1']/@size">[color="#00FF00"]24,14[/color]</set>
that is change the 13,14 into 24,14 (max 25,15)

Do the same for the Vehicle storage containers.

Screens for the standard 16:9 set (the last is after having all 5 PackMule-Perks activated):





Axton's AutoTurret

Now... this is quite more than just an AutoTurret Mod!

What do you get :

  1. Configurable Internal Powersupply - that is Turrets without external Power Supply! No Wires, no Generator!
  2. Configurable Admin-Ammo - that is Automatic Supply of Ammo, even with configurable Ammo count! No manual interaction necessary!
  3. Configurable Livetime - that is Turret gets damaged over time until it's destroyed; of course optional! And more: It's also configurable if shooting shall decrease it's livetime even more!!


Here is the relevant XML-code for you to configure:

Code: 
<property name="RequiredPower" value="[color="#00FFFF"][b]0[/b][/color]"/>
<property name="MaxDamage" value="1000"/>
[color="#D3D3D3"]<!--<property name="AmmoItem" value="ammo9mmBullet"/> -->[/color]
<property name="AmmoItem" value="[color="#FFA500"]ammoAdminTurret,500[/color],[color="#00FF00"][b]100,5[/b][/color]"/>
Easy, isn't it?! ;-)

But yes, this is of course only half the work for the Action Skill (besides progression...), we need some timed Buff that can exchange an item in the player's backpack... seems another DLL change here...

---

UPDATE: 1.1

brings an early form of ActionSkill-Selektion (via Quest and "Pills") and Upgrading (via ActionSkill-specific-Progression).

Also the "repacked" AutoTurret needs to be repaired/rebuild in the backpack to be usable again (this will still be replaced by a timed buff somewhen), but up to then it's a bit better balanced now.

To start the Quest, search for "actionskill" in the "CheatMenu" and take the Quest-Note...

---

(for this Mod, of course this is an DLL Change again, and again I only provide the DLL you need to copy manually, see above for instructions...


I will provide a "Complete DLL" with all my Changes when I release the "BorderlandZ GunPlay Thin Mod"...)

[video=youtube_share;4Y_zheaIYLA]


... and more to come ...

I would be grateful if you could specify a place (in the .dll) where this range can be changed, it would save my time in the future :)

Click to expand...
you can do this in the xml...

Code: 
<setattribute xpath="/items/item[contains(@name,'Pistol') and not(contains(@name,'Schematic'))]/effect_group[@name='Base Effects']/passive_effect[not(@name='DamageModifier') and not(@name='BurstRoundCount') and not(@name='ModPowerBonus') and not(@name='KickDegreesVertical') and not(@name='KickDegreesHorizontal') and not(@name='DegradationMax') and not(@name='ModSlots') and not(@name='EntityDamage') and not(@name='BlockDamage')]" name="rand">0.15</setattribute>
<setattribute xpath="/items/item[contains(@name,'Pistol') and not(contains(@name,'Schematic'))]/effect_group[@name='Base Effects']/passive_effect[@name='EntityDamage' or @name='BlockDamage' or @name='ModSlots']" name="rand">1.0</setattribute>
this will set some 10+ Stats to 15% Random and 3 Stats to 100% Random Blurring

but this is of course wip so anything can change...

 
Sorry, i didn't specify.

I would like to know how to change the quality range (1-255)....is it impossible to do with xml?

Click to expand...
yes, as the original 1-6 were.

there are about 10 more or less places you need to change in the DLL for that.

Technically it's even a 16bit value but somewhere in the World(?) save/load routines there is a 8bit conversion done to the qualitiy so you cannot increase the max qualities over 255 besides you find that occurence which I sadly haven't after some 5+/- days searching... sadly

not sure if I will make the 255 readable from XML, that's a lot of additional coding to the DLL which - for the moment - I won't change from the 255 anyways. Still have a lot of work to do, like power-less Turrets (done), power-enabled workbenches (in work) and other things, not even talking about the main mod ;-)

but if you need I can provide the list of all changes I did for that 255 Qs change...

 
Oh, Yes, the one byte limit (256)... I didn't think of that right away. Thank you for enlightening me.

 
I plan to release at least a "GunPlay" "thin" Mod of BorderlandZ this weekend.

"thin" doesn't mean it's small though ;-) only that it doesn't have all features included I'm currently working on...

I plan to release in that "thin" Mod:

Complete Sets of 6 Weapon Families (or Manufacturors) (playable already 100%, done 80%) :

- Funpimps - that the default set

- Dahl - Recoil---, Firerate-, Damage-

- Jacobs - Damage++, Recoil++, Firerate-

- Bandit - Magsize++, Full Auto, Firerate+,

- Maliwan - Full ELEMENTAL (Fire, Ice, Electricity, Toxic) -- features included, but still better particle effects & models needed

- Torgue - Full EXPLOSIVE -- same, still having some problems with models and particle effects, not sure if I can fix this until weekend

Again, these are the default Manufacturer-Modifiers, the random Quality Modifiers as already published comes on top of that!

These Sets are using Dust2Deaths HDHQGuns-Mod for their different appearence!

Also new additional WeaponMods will be included, very higher Zombie Spawning including unrestricting WanderingHordes, special Looting changes and different Zombie types (besides the vanilla ones there are faster Scout type ones with less HP and way slower Tank type ones with way more HPs -- for these I will use the dark Zombie textures from Mumpfy!)

Also a very first draft of "ActionSkills" starting with Axtons AutoTurret I hope to include. Other ActionSkills inspired from the Borderlands Game will follow and will be configurable and skillable in the Game later...

Quests, POis, world biomes etc. will follow (that's why this will be only a "thin" mod for now as these parts I won't publish yet)...

 
...added Axton's Auto-Turret...

it's only half the work though, as there needs to be a configurable timer until the Turret can be used again...

but I fear... I need to modifier the Buffs-Implementation then (Item-Exchange via timed Buff)... but not till this weekend...

 
...updated Axton's Auto-Turret...

now with the first draft for general Action Skills:

startable with a "Quest" and your choose of the right "pill" (each Action Skill will be activatable with a corresponding "pill"),

this will enable the corresponding Progression tree where you can upgrade your Action Skill.

For the moment I will use backpack "crafting" with a long timer to "replenish" your Action Skill - but this is only a workaround until I can add the giveItem/removeItem feature with buffs or events (DLL-changing needed!!).

It's only a first draft, so there's still a lot of work to be done!

But it's at least useable in the upcoming GunPlay-Mod! ;-)

(repository is updated!)

 
I'm in need of some Modellers and Texturers :-)

(I really suck at that, and only using vanilla assets is not suffice for all I want to include...)

So if your life is boring, but you don't want to start you own Mod...

Come, and help me make this Mod GREAT!!

;-)

 
BORDERLANDZ GunPlay Early Testers 0.1 Version released!

I'm still updating the info posts...

But please consider, this is an very early PreAlpha Test Version, things may be broken or even crash (red Errors) or are not "nice looking" as many textures and effects are just placeholders for the Moment...

so expect changes often for one or more of the Modlets!

I appreciate every (constructive) Feedback to make this Mod better!

Thanx!

Have Fun!

Pictures, Let's Plays and more Infos will come shortly....

 
German Let's Play 1 hour:

[video=youtube_share;KyKVM_rl-yk]

Action at 22min, more weapon talk at 45min...
