Darkness Falls: They mostly come out at night...

Hello Does the rain catcher still work as no water comes out as it use to do, if not how do you get crop pots to work now?...thanks.

 
Playing with the family and only issue we have came across is it does not appear we can buy anything from vending machines regardless of how much currency we have on us. We can buy from the traders but not from vending machines for some reason.

Most of the vending machines have a sign above them now that say Cash only, vs. Dukes. This was changed in this version of Darkness Falls to add value to old cash.

Thinking of this though, I want to add that the items in the units were cheaper than from the vendors until you got more better barter.

The old cash is more valuable as Dukes.. Should not the cost in the vending units be adjusted based at least to the lowest value of better barter? I think its 3 or 4 dukes per old cash. But unless I am recalling incorrectly their cost in the vending units just changed from Dukes to Old cash. Making them much more expensive than previously.

They did add some value to the game previously. Especially if I was unable to find enough food and water.. as for the most part, it was cheaper than buying from the traders... However, now I find that I already tend to ignore and avoid them at these new higher costs.

Just a thought, I would hate to see the old units being unused/ignored.

 
Well that could certainly explain that lol. Actually makes a lot of sense and would add a little to the game cause all i ever did was vendor the cash. Ill try that next time im by one. Thank you!

Fill it with empty buckets and wait for them to fill with water. Tooltip needs a new description as it no longer spawns water blocks nearby.

The door that can be opened with the second green key card in DFalls_Resarch_Lab will not open using the key card. (The first one did open.)
The door that can be opened with the blue key card on the left at the bottom of the stairs in DFalls_Annas_House will also not open. (The one in front opens.).
DFalls_Military_Bunker works fine.

The same thing happens in both multiplayer and single player.
It happens with randomly generated maps as well as with maps in DF.

Confirming the research lab part of this report.  I did it before and after starting the research rescue quest and I think it has something to do with the doors getting damaged as it affected different doors each time.  I used god mode to get through and there were other blue/red doors that wouldn't unlock either.  It consumes the keycard (and will sometimes consume multiples if you keep trying) but doesn't unlock.

Having a blast anyway.  Thanks Khaine!

 
Hi,
I am trying to get the newest version of the Darkness Falls Mod (6.0.0.16) to work on a dedicated server. I have no problems running it locally. But starting a dedicated server on a hoster I get the following console output:

Does anyone have any ideas what to do or is currently running a Darkness Falls Server against V1.0?
Thanks in advance. :)

 
in my world eve didn't spawn, so i added her via world editor

the problem is that she says that i had to talk to razor first, even if i already finish the razor questline, there is a way to fix this?

 
Hello! Longtime listener, firsttime caller..

First, thank you @KhaineGB, your efforts have transformed the game in a way that makes it enduring, exciting, and fun to play with others (don't have to fight over books).

I do have an issue in the v1.1 game that I didn't have when playing the DF Alphas, I used the modLauncher before and I copied and pasted the contents of the zip (followed the video, thanks!) for this one, so it is very likely I missed a step.

My problem is that I am unable to equip clothes and I freeze in the snow biome, even when all pieces of my armor (miner set) have the insulation mod. A similar exposure problem happens in the desert as well, overheating while equipped with cooling mods. How do I se the slots to equip clothes. Is there a DF install step I missed concerning 'deleting the vanilla files' or something? I am running 7DTDv1.1 and using DFv6b15 I believe..

I had the same problem at first, but the answer is... You need more insulation. You can stack the advanced and the basic mods for heat and cold, or you can invest in the survivalist talent that adds additional insulation "The Survivor"

The Survivor is the better way to go really as it gets you both heat and cold insulation.

I would assume this is to help make it A) Harder to skip content and B) Add value to the perk

 
Can't open the first blue door in the underground bunker in the wasteland for the "Research from hell" quest.  Blue key won't unlock the door (also tried red and green).  Using DF-V6.0.0-DEV-B16.

Edit: Multiple doors won't unlock in that bunker, and can't use the dev hammer to smash the doors as a workaround because it doesn't do enough damage.

This is definitely a bug, but I figured out a workaround. The problem is that you cannot unlock a door that has less than perfect durability, but every time any mob hits the door it changes the durability from 50k/50k to 49,999/50k. Here's what I did to get past this, it will probably take several attempts:

1. Put a laser multi-tool (laser repair thing) in #1 hot bar slot

2. Put the appropriate color key card in #2 hot bar slot.

3. Select laser multi-tool and get ready to repair the door

4. Right-click to repair the door and IMMEDIATELY press 2 on you keyboard to switch to the key card and try to unlock.

It probably won't work correctly the first time, but {repairing->selecting keycard->unlocking} as fast as you can will get it unlocked after a few tries, even if a dozen demons are hitting the other side.

To reiterate: THIS IS A BUG! IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT! This is only a workaround.

Had people say the same thing in discord. Can't reproduce it. Everything is working fine for me.

That gives no hints as to what the problem is.

There are no clothes. TFP removed them. Use armor mods or go into survivalist and take the well insulated perk.

Click to expand...
It's likely what it's going to be. Remember, I did say there would likely be NO new content in the first release. I decided to add that for folks who wanted something else to do.

 
Then you'd either need the macos patch from the discord, or use crossover and just play the PC verison (which I recommend doing because it runs better)
