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

[KhaineGB]

Hi, i am having so much fun with this mod! but currently also experiencing some troubles. i was driving to a part of the map i so far havent been, and my car got stuck. when i got out, i feel through the map and now if i want to reload its giving me errors and keeps being stuck in the loading screen. anyway to recover? or do i need to start over? 

i was using the VSmall1 map.

Is it in the desert? There's an issue with caves in that area. You have to turn caves off, delete the region file and then load the game. Any already generated caves should remain but it removes them from that area.

Man, I was seriously hating and getting confused on your install instructions...

...until I realized they were the MacOS install instructions.

You potato.

LOL!

yes r.1.3.7rg and 1.4.7rg are affected i think as these are the region files which reload after deleting all files in the region folder. how do you turn caves off?

That sounds like something happened and your character might be corrupt, so you hit my failsafe to not set your wellness to 0. Check your perks and make sure it's all ok.

That's not good. Think I'll have to start over. I'm not sure what I'm looking for to see if something is corrupt?

Go here using a Chrome-based browser: https://kui.github.io/7dtd-map/

Drag your map files onto the page as directed

In the PreFabs Filter, type "book". 

Take down the coordinates of the POIs listed.

Profit.

EDIT: Don't do this if you care about any map-based spoilers.

If you just want coordinates, open the map's prefabs.xml in a text editor, search for "book", take down the coordinates by each match.

I can't find which folder the maps are in in my laptop...

Some days ago I wrote:
You could open https://kui.github.io/7dtd-map/ and drop all mapfiles, eg from ...Steam\steamapps\common\DarknessFalls - A19.4\Mods\0-DarknessFallsCore\Worlds\DFalls-Large1\ - but you need to use chrome as browser.

Edit: And it has to be Chrome, not anything else, eg vivaldi, Opera, etc, as they cannot show all features like the real Chrome.

Open your character and check your skills to see if they've all been reset to 0.

Open the console, type DM and then press esc. You should be able to type in some co-ordinates and teleport yourself to safety.

However it sounds like that's a bad chunk that you hit. The region may need to be deleted for regeneration on the server to fix the issue.

 

[MrSamuelAdam]

They haven't been? So what do you think caused it? Should I just restart only on day 6?

 

[KhaineGB]

Hmmmm, no idea then. That's an odd one.

I'd check the creative menu and see if there's a wellness book. I think I added one. Should be able to set you back to 100.

I dont know how to do the chunk-reset thingy, not a server guy.

You can turn caves off in Mods\2-SphereIICore\Config\blocks.xml under cave configuration.

Hi! Great Mods! Question: i want to change speed of vehicules, i edited vehicules files but no success, which files i need to modify?

 

[meganoth]

Here is one chunk reset method: Start the game, go to the chunk you want to reset, destroy a block (but probably not the one you are standing on). Stop the game. Then look into your savegames directory. You should see a "Region" directory with lots of files ending in ".7rg". Move the file with the newest modify date to somewhere safe.

Done. If it doesn't work as expected you can undo the change by moving the file back into the "Region" directory.

You don'T need to hack the game: You can build Mods to speed up most vehicles (other mod are eg for brighter lights or less fuel consumption).

You edit the vehicles.xml in the Mods/0-DarknessFallsCore/Config folder, not the one in Data/Config.

Cheers mega. I legit have no idea how to do it myself.

So I've just started trying the mod, and I'm noticing that in most cases, door locks are reversed. Normal doors are locked, while boarded doors are unlocked. Is this intended?

Eventually I'm sure I can break those doors open easily enough, but it's kinda backwards when the intended path of a POI is locked, but the unintended paths aren't.

Edit: Almost immediately after posting, I found a crowbar. So I suppose that's solved, for this run at least. Still odd though.

I downloaded the newest version and installed it in the d7 folder overwriting what was there to start a new game session.  Everything seems to be ok i start a game it gets all the way to initializing the game and then this window pops up that says 7d2d Unity with some random numbers and a green progress bar runs really fast then the game just closes out.  I looked for that error but the search function on the forums is pretty bad =/  Any thoughts?

*update*

I uninstalled and reinstalled the game and then the mod files via Khaine's instructions and it worked so I am not sure what was up with the error.

That's because locked/unlocked is randomized because people wanted to be able to lockpick doors.

And then never used it.
