Ravenhearst Mod

...
Not really. If you will learn one thing playing this mod is that it is leaning HEAVILY towards less crafting and more exploring. There are no craftable station tools except for the butcher knife and blacksmith hammer, and those were only added because they are vital to progressing. There will be similar changes coming in future patches that promote exploring.

I like the concept. This is my first play thru so without much explanation of these things its irritating to figure this out AFTER you spent the points. My suggestion would be to lock buying the tailor table (and others) behind a quest that the only requirement is to find a Sewing Kit. So now, the quest to craft Hide clothing and armor will sit in the quest list longer and until much later in progression, IF it gets done at all, because the player, after day 10-14, is already at a point that he/she is wanting to find/buy iron or better. The only other way I can see that initial quest worth doing at all is if you remove the requirement for the Sewing Kit for the hide armor just to progress the quest to next stage.

That all may sound stupid to those veteran Ravenhearst players but atleast its more considerate to new players that dont know where to spend points especially with all the point locked new craft stations.

 
hi, from what i know, the lag is caused by the zombie's texture, try to reduce your display setting of UMA texture to the lowest. usually it helps.

Thanks for the response. I tried turning down the UMA textures, and it did give a slight boost too FPS (4-5), but later i tried turning off some of the options that could be turned off. It seems SHADOWS was the major hog. Turned them off and gained 15 FPS.

 
I am on day 63 and enjoying the mod thank you very much.

One issue is that I can't unlock the recipe for corn meal. Is it in the game? I have skill books to unlock farmer but it doesn't look like the recipe is inside farmer.

Just want to thank you for all the hard work you and the group have put into this Mod.

It is a pleasure to play the game .. except for the lag in the building menu .. but that is a know fact for most mod that offer so much. Thank You

 
It can't find some the Mods/SDX/Resources/ files. Are they there?
Click to expand...
Yes all files are in their correct places and I just double checked. The error going on about the composter Ill try to dig and find out why this is happening. Im not very experienced with modding stuff. I have downloaded this manually 2 times before and didn't have any issues. I change the progression xml's and when I use the launcher it overwrites it so that's why I need to be able to manually do this.

Edit: I'm doing a clean install now hopefully I can get this working

try killing reflections too. even in vanilla i turn off shadows and reflections, world of difference. those skyscrapers are a killer regardless.

You could always do an initial install and play in the Mod Launcher. Then, after you started the game the first time, you can go edit the XML, and not use the mod launcher again until next update.

I can't even say this ever occurred to me *facepalm LMAO. I think I did try to do something like this before and it was with a different mod when I first started using the launcher. I tried to download mod launcher/mods stuff to a folder named 7 days to die-name of the mod I was trying to play at the time and it wouldn't recognize it in drop down menu and I gave up. I was thinking that the mod was to copy original game but I didnt see a copy in my files. Anyway I made this way more complicated than it had to be and thanks to your suggestion it's working now.

Some times we get focused on what we *know* we need to do, and we miss some of possible other options available :)

I'm glad it's working for you!

V2.08 SP 7day Horde ... Question ... WAS the SMG kill power reduced and doing less damage ... in yesterdays game 2.07 I was able to kill an Alien with about 20 homemade bullets to the head [ less than a full clip ] and I just got done playing for a bit today with v2.08 and IT TOOK 90/3+ clips and thank Goodness I had it .. I will agree that some may not have been good shots .. but that is a big deference.

Just wondering and Thank you

Another issue that I have had is with the crossbow .. after using it .. I always have an bolt in my hand when putting items down and Not using crossbow at that time .. has that been fixed yet, haven't seen any notes on it or is it just my game. Thanks again

PS: EDIT .. I just saw this and is this part of what I'm talking about .. copied from 2.08 update ....

[ -Lowered stats a bit on the starting guns ]

What about a 2.05 to 2.08, wipe?
Click to expand...
If you wiped for 2.05 no wipe needed now. All you will miss out on is any new vehicles added to spawn or the 2 new POIs. Traps skill was adjusted, fixing a bug in it. But i don't see a need for a wipe for that, at least our server hasn't wiped for it.

The arrow in the hand that is a vanilla bug that was fixed but can reappear when using 3d models in modded games. It occurs when you scroll over the bow quickly. Unfortunately I do not have a fix for that other than removing the model.

The bullets in starting guns were indeed lowered a bit as they were more powerful than the actual bullets. There is still some balancing to be done but the intention was that homemade bullets are much less efficient than the "real" ones so it pushes you to go out and make ammo that is better.

Corn Meal is unlocked via a recipe cookbook found most frequently in cupboards and sinks

 
I am on a 2.08 wipe and i am having a slight issue with the crossbow after reloading there is a significant delay in allowing me to the right click zoom in i had no issue with the bow before i switched to the crossbow i didnt try to spawn an iron crossbow to see if it would make a difference or not

 
An arrow in the hand is........

I'll be nice.

Since the arrow glitch has been a vanilla bug for I can't remember how long, the only fix I've found for it is exiting and reloading the world. (No need to exit full game, just the world you're in.) That'll fix it for awhile, mine's been gone for a week now so far.

OTADS...

Since I'm wiping from 2.05-2.08 are there any good seeds out there with the new POI's?

I think your talking about my post not 100% sure

i tried a new world and took the bow class to get a crossbow and it still has the delay after firing

Edit i figured it out the delay was set to 3 maybe for balance but the animation doesn't change just takes longer to let you do anything i set it to two and it fired like it used to

Anyway to remove or reduce the massive amount of loading lag this mod seems to put in? anytime I open any window there is a 1-3sec load time, or sometimes even more, its very obnoxious.

Utilise the favourites option, only real way to reduce the menu lag.
