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

Right, what I was trying to post before I got distracted by more random bugs people want to complain about...

I updated Google Drive and Git to fix the stack overflow/CTD error.

The launcher probably patched your 19.1 game with 19.2, as stated in my second post after the patch notes.

Hmm..so i wiped the server, download the serverfiles from ur post above, reinstalled the mod, installed the client files

same problem... 

Game starts, before entering the main menu i get a  'red error message' and the menu wont load at all.

What am I missing here? Sorry for being stupid 🤕

Well, not sure what is up but I got the server and client updated to 19.2 DF, got logged in, no errors.  After a few minutes of putzing around, I went out to my 7 day base and encountered a bear.  I shot him once and lost my left right controls with the mouse.  A and D roll my screen clockwise or counterclockwise to almost 90 degrees, after which I start to wander in that direction but still can't turn side to side.  Bear killed me.

I revived and went outside and controls seemed fine.  I went up to a zombie and shot her and again, no left and right control, only can go in one direction forward or backward.  I managed to get inside my base with zombies chasing me, and then I logged out.  Came back in and was inside the walls of my base, but could move around.  Killed the zombies through the walls then stepped outside the walls and then I lost the up/down movement, only had the ability to turn left to right and move forward and back.  

No server errors or messages coming up, I just lost one axis of control.  Really odd that when I lost the left to right control I gained a roll, since that isn't even a control in the game unless you are in a gyrocopter.. 

Any ideas?

Hi, i have the same problem. Losing right and left control.

I only have this when i use the "0" (zero) key. So, i press 2 times this key to retreive left/right.

I think that the "0" key is in conflict with another key on some computers.

 
Khaine,

I tried your fix and it seemed to be more stable for longer, but after about an hour I got the stack overflow error again. Something interesting is happening when it occurs though. I swung and missed a tree and hit some grass. What happened next was hard to explain but the ground just exploded in an expanding ring of what appeared to be a mining cave in, though the ground didn't disappear. I could see the dust puffs you see during a desert area cave in though and it went on as far as I could see in the distance. Was actually quite amusing, well except for the inevitable CTD.

Edit: I logged back into the world and looked at the aftermath of the expanding ring of doom. All the grass in the area was gone. I couldn't explore more because I immediately received the error again.

the game is great. the stupid part of it is all the updates and introducing new glitches and problems. leave the version alone. we updated to 19 but there were glitches and corrected the errors. we updated to 19.1 and there are glitches but corrected the errors. now we have to do it all over again with 19.2? why can't the developers just leave the version alone and let us play until over day 1000 in game. why keep interrupting us to have to download a new version and have to problem solve all over again? this is just bs!

probably time to go back to 18.4

maybe time to go back to 18.4

yeah going back to 18.4

Yeah. Sure would be nice if they would fix some of the issues that have plagued this game for years, i.e., water blocks that break, clipping, stuttering, etc. But no, instead let's add a whole new set of issues with Game Sense, a totally unnecessary feature. They probably got a sh*tload of money for it from Steelseries, though. So, there's that.

 
Hello! 

Khaine, Im in love with your mod! Thank you! Ill be starting my another gameplay soon with all these new patches and stuff, insane-permdeath-no trader this time :) I do have a question tho, manually installed/patched vanilla - everything is working, clean and smooth. Is there a way to get rid of that OP 15 slot toolbelt? I was fine with 10 slots. 
(Removing 15slot toobelt from 1-DF/Harmony does nothing, belt thingy is still in game usable) 

Thanks again!

You're STILL on 19.1.

You MUST download and install 19.2. (Opt out of all betas on steam) Make sure THAT works in vanilla, then apply the mod.

I wonder if it's related to keyboard language settings... cos I know this was a thing in 18.4 with russian keyboards IIRC.

It won't retroactively fix your world. The grass is already spawned. You need a new save or to delete all region files to force chunk regeneration.

No.

 
Thanks Khaine! That worked I had the server people update the mod which unfortunately they needed to wipe the server to do so but it is what it is lol. I did try doing the manual install first but I couldn't get that to work on my computer so I tried reformatting my computer to start from scratch and it still didn't work so now I use the mod launcher because it is the only way I can get your mod to work on my computer. I just need to mess with the setting so steam and the mod launcher don't update when there's an update ^.^

 
i'm playing 3.1. level is 122. i just made three generic skill books and read them but my level is still 122. is there a cap on how much you can level using the books? and browsing creative ( no i didn't cheat) i see faction books, i assume you get them after completing (X) # of quests for one of the traders? asking here because searches haven't answered my questions. still on 3.1 because i really don't want to start all over again, thanks.

 
Generic skill books give skill points, not levels.

Faction books are the old method I was using to get trader factions working. They're not needed anymore. I left them in just in case of save corruption and a player/server admin needs to help rebuild a character (including trader faction)

got it, thank you again Sir

 
Anyone else have difficulty finding Titanium?  I've done lots of mining and have as of yet found any.  Are there any specific biomes?

 
Hey LOVE THIS MOD you are doing great job. My question is can you do a video on youtube telling how to update the game if we have it downloaded without the modlauncher.
