This logs mentions the mod "ActiveIngredients", which is known to break linux und therefore is removed from DF 3.5/A19.5. I suggest you try updating server and clients to vanilla 19.5 and then install DF servermaster/clientmaster (or if you have to stay with 19.4 for some reasons, remove the mod active ingredients from server and clients).

Hey there, newcomer to this mod. I run a vanilla server and the group decided to try this mod. So far they're really liking their plays in client-hosted mode, and have asked me to put up the server so they don't have to keep running it themselves.

I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 with 10 GB of RAM, plenty of swap (because I saw how much this thing gobbles). However I'm apparently having issues getting the server to do such simple tasks like loading the core XML files.

I've submitted a ticket on the GitLab project but I guess that's not the place to solicit help so here I am. :D

In summary, server essentially falls over because it can't load things like blocks.xml, and even though it lists itself and clients can (try to) join, it basically doesn't work. No explicit crash (well, besides the exception handler swallowing things will unhelpful messages), and I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong.

Log pastebin for the server is https://pastebin.com/ckAcXvGf

Server config xml is https://pastebin.com/Ub0YWACy

Steps I followed was duplicate the Steam vanilla server files, git clone the repo and copy everything into the copy, adjust the serverconfig.xml file and attempt to start the server.

Which is strange because... I don't think I am?

Unless that's not actually where it's supposed to be?

 
Either the server DLL file is a bad download, or your client version is a bad download.

But the error is clear. You're either missing or have a bad dll file.

 
It is though because the server sends the XML to the client and if the client has a missing or bad DLL, you get that error.

I'm not being a @%$#, but in the past 3-ish years of the mod using custom code, a DLL file error like is ALWAYS "bad or missing."

It's that simple.

I haven't even connected a client yet. This is the straight-up server log. So, the server itself is not Loading the mod that it says it's loaded? 

 
Then, again, you have a bad or missing file on the server. Did you make sure to overwrite the assembly_csharp file? Because your log isn't loading ANY of the custom code.

Here's an example. You're missing ALL OF THIS.

Which would imply you didn't replace the assembly_csharp file in <server directory>/7DaystoDieServer_Data/Managed

(Facepalms) apparently the copy code prioritized the vanilla server files over the mod files, and it's not obvious the priority was backwards until I inspected the file to confirm which version was kept. 

Ugh, you would think a message like "tried to patch assembly-sharp.DLLfailed,mismatch version" would be a thing but I suppose it would be too tedious to track versions like that. 

The server is now loading properly.  🎉

Thanks for running the "did you actually follow the installation procedures" stick with me.  👍

 
Hello. I am new to 7 days modding and me and my friends decided to try this mod out. We are using the 7d2d mod launcher (I don't know if that makes a difference) and we can launch the mod. The problem that we're having is joining each others worlds. We all get stuck on a "receiving and loading configs" screen. Is there anyway to fix this?

Yeah the first load literally takes forever. My first time took nearly two minutes after I had increased the map sending speed to max. The next time loading in won't take as long, but it still takes a while.

So long as it doesn't pop up the error you'll probably fine just to wait. 

Edit: Yeah, my Medium1 map took just over four minutes to load in according to my stopwatch just now, though that might be partly because this machine has the Ultra textures loading.

Has anyone successfully attempted to patch: "Weapon/Hands FOV (Camera Distance) Changer" into DF?

I've tried via DMT, which is a no go with the "assembly already patched with SDX etc."

Also tried Khaines suggestion of patch on clean install of 7 Days (both on 19.4), then copy mod over, which gives a wall of red text:

Wtf is this.png

You can't add DMT mods to DF that have code OTHER than harmony code.

You just cant.

Aight...the file says it includes Harmony.

Are you referring to the scripts?

If so, that's unfortunate LOL

Can you...suggest an alternative? *wink wink*
