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

@KhaineGB Really appreciate the release on today of all days :) DF is our favorite 7D mod.

Just loaded it up and the UI seems a bit misaligned. 1440p monitor and resolution settings, but my gf playing on the same version on a 1080p monitor has the same misalignment. Need any additional info?
(Edit: UI scaling and other UI settings don't seem to change it)

That's not what the DF UI looks like (or vanilla). Do you have some UI mod installed?

On day 1 you'd only have compass and "Day: 1", not time or anything else (unless you spawned in a watch, but that would only add the time, not the temperature or other stuff).

 
When this window show up during the map loading in the game, it crashes. 

And when not using this mod, I can start and play the game normally.

Does anyone know how to fix this?  :(

You were right - I somehow copied over an old version of Enhanced HUD when I made our new game. Deleted that and all is well :)

 
Just install the mod on a clean version of the game.


Your harmony folder is missing

You have other mods installed

Has anybody had problems with Vending machines? Seems that you cannot buy items from them. Or is it just turned off for now.
Read the sign above them

 
Alright degenerates. It's past midnight for me, and I planned for this to drop on halloween (which it now is), so...
 

Darkness Falls V6 Experimental is now available!
 

Now, I know these patch notes may not look like a lot, but I want to make it clear these are only the changes for DF V6 vs DF V5.1. The actual patch notes with all the crap we fixed are WAY longer, but most of that isn't necessary info for you guys. It's mostly for the testers.
 

If folks WANT all the patch notes, I'm happy to post them. Just thought I'd keep the reading amount low. ;)
 

Finally, before anyone asks, NO IT IS NOT ON THE MOD LAUNCHER!!! I never put experimental builds on the mod launcher. Yes, it's for 7DTD V1.1. Yes, it's an experimental and there is a POSSIBILITY you could lose your save.

Thank you, Khaine, for your effort. If possible, please try to fulfill my request to add the bots again

 
Anyone trying to run this on a server and seeing pauses/errors in the logs?

Seeing hundreds of these.. not sure what is causing it. It played fine in single player.

Noticing an error when trying to craft Spotlight and Trigger Plates. forces you to AltF4 in order to clear it. These are the only errors I have come across in V6 so far.

Seems like the toolbelt hotkeys have changed - slots 11-15 no longer work with shift + (your 1-5 keybind). Was this intentional, or is it possible some code got overwritten or whatever? I've tried every combo I can think of (used alt +, ctrl +, number pad).

Thanks so much for putting in all the work over the years. I've played more hours on this mod than the base and all other mods combined.

 
@KhaineGB  A couple of issues I have just found, Titanium blade trap placed caused a series of nullreferenceExceptions, to the point where you can't exit it without task manager.

First aid kits can't be used to heal your partners as will show 0

Drinking water from a late doesn't register the completion of the quest

I think there were others but its escaped my mind but i'll edit or repost when it comes back to me

V6:

I was driving through the desert and explodey zombies were exploding left and right, like 5 in 30 seconds sometimes, sort of like they spawned in severely damaged (I didn't get a chance to see if that was the case, though). There were some that didn't explode, but they kind of seemed to be a minority (POI spawns behaved normally and first exploded when damaged).

Pretty funny, but probably not intended.

I haven't had the same thing happen in the forest biome (haven't been to snow or wasteland yet).

(Edit: It does happen in forest too, I think it just happens a lot less because fewer explodey ones spawn there).

In the last testing video, Khaine said there was a bug with zombie health. I think it was double what it should have been or such. Did the same bug cause Scavenger difficulty to have less health than intended?

I started my game on Scavenger as I always do, but it was far easier than it's been in previous DFs. I one-shot almost everything with level 1 stone spear and primitive bow and at day 20 a compound crossbow and an M4A1 one-shot absolutely everything, no matter where I hit them.

On day 8 or so I ran into a surprise radiated feral wight in an otherwise low stakes POI and it died almost instantly to my scrap spear and level 6 advanced pistol.

Though, in 20 days I didn't see a single feral or rad at night nor in wandering hordes, so it's not just health that's different (I don't know if health might affect whether a zombie can spawn as a rad or feral).

Then I changed the difficulty to the next step up (default) and suddenly wandering hordes are like 30-50% ferals with lots more health (in the forest biome), so that's quite a difficulty spike.

Hey,

As it's my first post, I first of all have to thank Khaine for all his work.

Downloaded and enjoyed V6, but I have a bug in the "rescue from hell" mission given by Anna.

I go to the location, find the entrance to the bunker, but the 1st door remains locked whatever I do. I have more than 10 of blue/green/red keycards, when I use the blue one I see the count decrements (so it's properly used) but the door is still locked.

I tried giving up the quest and taking it back from Anna, but the bug is still there when I go back and redo the quest.

Any tip ?

---

I found out... problem is you can't open a door if it's damaged. And zombies were hitting it. So I had to quickly repair and then unlock before zombies hit it. It's quite a pain in the a*** because it happens on several doors inside the facility.

Yeah me and my Son had this issue when we realised I would repair he'd quickly open it
