I managed to fix the lag by reducing tree quality,strange that it also affect zombie model quality,Also it's necessary to play DF's own maps?or demon portal and those two bunkers spawn in random gen?

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

So this bunker with tech notes...We looked in Missile Silos, The ones with the weird back yard and little shed that has steps down to the hidden bunker, three of the military bases types and we can't find any of the research desks. is it possible they wouldnt spawn in 17.3 random gen?

Have you added the Darkness Falls POIs to the prefab list for Random Gen?

Probably. Last time I did that, folks complained though.
But I'll add it to my list as something to try out and see what folks think.
Not intentional. I tweaked RWG so that shouldn't happen. A lot of folks have been saying there isn't ENOUGH radiation so I think you got super unlucky.
Hmmm, not a bad idea. I'd need a seperate perk that requires the 2 mastery perks. The Completionist technically already does this, so yes, it's totally do-able.
Being honest, I'm bad with the server side of things so I have no idea how to copy your player data over.
As for the crashing, check RAM usage. I know the 12k maps take a lot more.
There was an issue with the corpse disappearing too fast. That should be fixed in 2.11.
I'm also testing out an increase to their life stages so they'll like about 7-ish days instead of closer to 3.

Not necessary at all. Everything SHOULD spawn in random gen.
I recommend sacrificing a chicken for luck though.
Yes it's possible. Even though I set min_count to 1, sometimes they just don't spawn, which is very frustrating.

Thanks. I thought Navezgane was same size as DF-Med? 12xxx something.
I'll try with the smaller one and we'll see how it goes =)
The server I'm renting has 4gb ram if that's any help.

Navezgane is 6k. DFalls Small maps are 8k. DFalls Medium is 12k.
Honestly with 4 Gb you're getting nowhere. They just have to give you AT LEAST 8Gb. Ask them, if they don't give it consider using another host.

Okay, couple potentially stupid questions.
The ammo crafting perk mentions hollow point and armor piercing rounds, but I can't find anywhere that I can make them. Is there a special workbench, or are they non-existent?
Second, what weapon do people recommend for fighting Behemoths? I've got a lathe (thank you Wandering Trader!) but I'm not sure what the best weapon type would be (I have access to everything except coil and laser, but I just need to spend the points to get coil, which isn't a big deal.)
Third, is there a good source of generic mod template papers? I loot basically everything, and I've bought all of them from the trader at every opportunity, but I still feel like I'm always short on them (and I've only made a bare minimum number of mods.)
Finally, mining for titanium should be at +5 height on the map or 5 blocks above bedrock (which is something like +8)?
Thanks for the awesome mod. I really didn't enjoy 17.X, and you've made it playable (and fun!).

For behemoths. I found that using Recog. Having the perk where you do 200 percent damage. Think it is survival. And the coil pistol. Have some perks into pistols. And basically if you are lucky enough you can get a clear shot to the head with recog and sneaking, you can one shot them. Coil rifle you need 2 shots.

Like Myth said, Navezgane is a 6k map.
Most folks have found DFalls-Small, which is the 8k map, is pushing 7GB RAM usage. Most server providers should be offering 6GB as a minimum.Also TFP don't recommend using above 8k, so that's probably what I'll be recommending for now as well.
THe rounds are a localization derp. AP rounds do exist in the XML, but don't work properly. Same with hollow point, though they might be making a return soon.
For behemoths, I see Kragnok gave an opinion, but I personally test with a T6 M4A1 rifle. That + rod and spring, scope, laser sight, extended mag and a dye for damage usually lets me either kill one or get VERY close with 1 mag. Basically get a sneak headshot and then just unload all 45 rounds.
Generic schematics... right now I'm having the most luck finding those from safes.
Titanium spawns approx 10 blocks above bedrock, but it's rare outside of the wasteland.
Someone earlier in the thread mentioned it was too easy to get, so I adjusted the spawn rate.Cool. I can make a T7 at this point, but the only time I've used a firearm so far is the pipe pistol for the security quest, so my ranks are all 0. Need to get those up.
Yeah, I've found them there too. Just feels like I don't have enough to fill out all my gear.
Bleh. Okay, I'll try at 10 above bedrock. I just sank my mineshaft yesterday, so I'll have to move it up a bit. Still haven't found a wasteland (I did almost drive into a radiated biome...thanks for changing the texture or I'd have been toast!) but I haven't explored a ton because I was busy doing quests and building a starter base. Will focus on exploring for a bit (I need to find a permanent base site anyway.)Titanium spawns approx 10 blocks above bedrock, but it's rare outside of the wasteland.
Thanks for being so helpful!
Hello there Khaine, quick question about getting this mod to run. Tried installing it multiple times with a clean install from steam, and just cannot get it to load up. Using the mod launcher, i constantly get this error code.
"Failed to load PlayerSettings (internal index #0).
Most likely data file is corrupted, or built with mismatching
editor and platform support versions."
Tried uninstalling and redownloading multiple times to no avail. Any tips or ideas how to get past this? I've never ran into an issue with the mod launcher until now. Thank you so much for your time and your hard work. I am extremely excited to dive into this mod.

Does random gen work with Darkness Falls or should I stick to premade? I made one random so far and it kept tossing me in the radiation zones. Maybe was just bad luck?

Nope, but I did make 2 brass catcher mods you can install on weapons to reclaim casings.
You lucky sod.
It does work, but it loves to throw you in the wasteland. I recommend generating in the random gen previewer and then check the midddle of the map. If it looks good, use DM in the console (F1) and then hit esc. There will be a teleport button. Hit THAT and it'll put you smack in the middle of the map.
Assuming it dumps you in rad zone again.
Okay, another stupid question. I've done all the class quests and have all the master perks except scientist (haven't found the book yet.) I can craft everything titanium except the spear, the hunting knife, the club and the sledgehammer. Does master scientist unlock all of those, or do I have to take the titanium crafting perk?
Also, are there gravel deposits for titanium? And when you say it's rare except in the wasteland, do you mean underground as well?

Khaine said portals are respawning. For me they did respawn but at different location.

You need to be lvl 100 and unlock titanium crafting to make titanium ingots in advanced forge.
Titanium can be found on the surface in wastelands or around 10 blocks above bedrock. Usually Titanium is "mixed" with lead in forest biome - thats where I usually go look for it.
Sometimes it can be evasive so visit wasteland if unlucky for surface nodes, but be prepared for lots of zombies ( all ferals, irradiated and legendary ). Best to go there at night and sneak mine it - do recon during the day
