If you used the launcher, just hit presync.
If you didn't, lemme know and i'll t oss the single file in here.

Seems like its broken now. Me and 2 other friends were playing on last update, and it seemed fine. We updated the game and updated the mod with the newest posted version and its broken for all of us. Seems okay for me, but noone can join me, Anytime my friends try to join, they crash when receiving configs shows. Weve tried completely wiping the PC , roaming, and steam installations of 7d2d and it still doesnt work. Seems like there are settings saving somewhere, outside of those 2 locations, that arent being deleted. These might not even be the issue but very strange, and completely unplayable now.

As said in several posts already.
1) You NEED a completely new save. It's not option. It's not if you feel like it. You NEED one.
2) Gitlab screwed up and did not delete a file I told it to delete. I fixed that. However apparently it's not being deleted for some mod launcher users when they pre-sync. So, wherever you have the mod installed, nuke it. Full nuke it. Don't verify through steam. Don't just hit "uninstall" on steam and assume it'll clean it, because it doesn't. Steam is dumb. It leaves behind any folders that aren't part of the "vanilla" install.
Like Mods.
Where the bad file is.

rubjonny said:Just for info I did the update from v19 to 19.1 and our saved game do appear to load and work ok, but I've not explored for any great distance so there might be huge holes in the map I've not found yetSo if you do update I'd say its worth at least having a look!
..."Due to quest changes, forge changes and the fact we're going from 19.0 to 19.1, A RESTART/WIPE IS ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED! You have been warned."
i just played a few hours of 19.1 darkness falls. maybe stop updating. 19 was fine. you update and fix some glitch but then your new update has even more glitch and more annoying ones. it's just the evil of this game. it's glitchful. updating doesnt mean it's better. for all the hassle of getting 19.1 working - i'd rather you just kept it 19. it was fine. now it's just double annoying. it's more glitchful then 19 was.

And then people would be going "WHEN 19.1 UPDATE???"
No. I have to stay current with the game.
And aside from 3 small issues, no-one else has complained. One was gitlab screwing up, one was a typo on my part which the game didn't register as an error... for some reason... and one is completely random and you can work around it.

U can make some ppl happy sometimes but not all ppl happy all the time as the saying goes.. I however am very happy with all the updates and the work Khaine has done.. Keep up the good work. Koodo's to u
yes I did read that thanks, if you read my post properly you'll see that I'm aware that my game may well be broken somewhere I haven't explored yet. Just becasue it seems ok for me doesnt mean it will be for anyone else. But like I say, its worth a try before you delete your save games
Hi. I totally love this mod for 7 days but yesterday my friends and I where struggling with the updates. I host the game and they join me usually.
After some new installing and shenanigans we were finally able to play together again.
there is just an issue for me that when I or my friends use one of the last 4 hotbar slots I’m getting error messages. Damn I forgot which one. But I keeps popping up and I can do nothing.
And it seems like I can’t put customised fittings into power armor.
Is that intended? In 19.0 it worked just fine.
I‘ll add the error message after work today.
greetings from Germany

@KhaineGB is it possible to download the 3.02 version somehow? We started our world with 3.00, currently on 3.01, and our only issue is the demon fireball bug which drives us crazy. We really want to fix it with the 3.02 version, but we were on holiday when you released it, and now only the 3.1 available, which requires a new world and we don't want to start over on our dedicated server.

@KhaineGB First off, this mod is awesome. Two friends and I have played it three times now, on two different versions. Thank you.
Secondly, so a friend accidentally pre-sync'd his game before playing and is on version 19.1. Is there any way for him to get back to 19.0? We are using the 7D2D mod launcher and it seems to always go to the current version. Is going back to different versions something you could add in the future? It was just getting interesting and now it looks like we have to start over.
Thanks!

[SIZE=16pt]How to fix the 7d2d 19.1 loading error[/SIZE]
Fun Pimps recently updated 7 days to die to alpha 19.1 and the Devs at Darkness Falls Mod followed suit just as many of the other mod developers will do as well. However, a problem was introduced to the game which prevents it from loading. Specifically: the game load process stalls at the “creating character” step. I have not identified the exact folder or file but with the help of several members of Chalk 4 I have identified a broad fix that eliminates the problem. This fix requires the user to uninstall the Steam Client, 7d2d mod launcher and Darkness falls Mod and the 7d2d game. This will require the use of Revo Uninstaller in order to achieve a clean uninstall. You can download the uninstaller here https://www.revouninstaller.com/revo-uninstaller-free-download/
Download and install Revo before you attempt any uninstall of Steam or 7d2d or the Mod launcher.
Read all of the listed instructions before you attempt this. Failure to follow these instructions could break your windows operating system and require a complete system install.
1: Uninstall the Darkness Falls Mod at the mod launcher by opening the mod launcher, highlight the darkness falls mod and then press delete all.
2. Open Revo and let it find all the installed programs. Select the 7d2d Mod launcher and press uninstall. After Revo removes the programs you will be offered to scan the system and look for registry entries left behind. Select scan and when the scan is complete select all and delete. Revo will then scan for program files left behind. Repeat the process. Select Delete all.
3: Using Revo uninstall the 7d2d game. Repeat the steps outlined above to remove all file and registry entries left behind.
4 Using Revo uninstall your steam client. Repeat the steps outlined above to remove all file and registry entries left behind.
5. Open file explorer for windows and navigate to trhe C drive. Delete the 7d2d folder if it is still there. It will appear at the top of the listing if it is still present.
6. At the top of the screen click on file and select change folder and search options. Select the view tab and then select show hidden files, folders and drives.
7. Chose the folder options. Click on the C drive and select users / your name / or the profile the game is installed under and then open the AppData Folder.
8. Locate any folders in the Local, Local Low and Roaming main folders identified as 7d2d Mod launcher, 7 Days to Die, Fun Pimps or Steam and delete them. Warning: Do not delete the Local, Local Low or Roaming folders or any other folders except those listed above as you will break your windows operating system and be unable to boot. Close the file explorer and restart your system.
9. After restart: Reinstall your Steam Client, 7days to die game and 7d2d Mod launcher. Install the game in the launcher by downloading the client from steam using latest experimental version. Install the mod by pre synching the mod. Make sure you install Alpha 19.1 not 19.0
The game will now run without the load screen hang when you are using Alpha 19.1 and Darkness Falls.

I assume the error is when you try to use an item that gives a quest? In which case, I know about it and i am looking into it.
Fittings not going in power armor is intended.
I have a backup of the files on Nexus.

Depends what you're doing?
Going back to other versions via launcher? No. But I do try to keep a backup on nexus.

Yeah, it's just the display cvar derping out. You can just take all the armor off and put it back on and that should fix it.
