THIS MODLET HAS BEEN RETIRED
Please see 31MAY2019 post!
Description:
REV6:7-8's Modlet ... CRISPY CRITTERS makes the game easier in a few ways...
1. Replacing all animals with stags (male deer, the ones WITH antlers).
Why stags? I want the player to have food meat available as often as possible. Rabbits and chickens are too small and fast to target easily, especially with primitive weapons and/or at night. Boars are non-aggressive, until you damage them. Does (female deer, the ones WITHOUT antlers) aren't as noticeable in brush as the antlered males are. Vultures provide feathers for arrows and crossbow bolts, sure, but they're a PITA otherwise. And besides, nests everywhere are loaded with feathers.
2. Replacing all zombies with the burnt zombies from the wastelands.
Why burnt zombies? They're easily visible from a distance, especially at night. And their crackling sounds make them noticeable even in total darkness or on the other side of doors and walls.
3. Reducing the block damage of the burnt zombies to 1.
Burnt zombies are already some of the least damaging zombies in the game, as far as damage to blocks is concerned (2 points per block hit). I merely nerfed them to do half that damage (1 point per block hit).
You can still manually spawn any of the other animals or zombies from the base/vanilla game using the entity spawner (F6), but this should keep them from spawning in-game otherwise...
... unless you do some of the quests which may spawn specific animals or zombies other than the substitutions this modlet makes otherwise.
System Requirements/Fine Print:
The latest version of this modlet has been tested on the vanilla/base install of 7 Days To Die for PC/MAC, version(s):
Alpha 17.3 Stable B18
...
WITHOUT OTHER MODS, MODLETS, OR CUSTOMIZATIONS
It may or may not work with earlier versions of 7DTD, may or may not work with experimental versions of 7DTD, may or may not work with other mods or modlets or customizations, and may or may not work with your particular server configuration.
Also, console players are out of luck with this one. Sorry!
Your mileage may vary. Caveat emptor.
Known Compatibilities:
1. This modlet works properly with the
REV6:7-8's ADMIN SKILL POINTS
modlet.

3. This modlet
DOES NOT
work properly with any other mods, modlets, or customizations that add, change, remove, or replace NPCs from the 7DTD game.
Consider yourself warned.
Installation:
1. Download the zip file to your computer...
ATTACHMENT REMOVED
- Please see 31MAY2019 post!
2. Extract the rev678_crispycritters folder from the downloaded zip file.
3. Open your 7 Days To Die game installation folder. The easiest way to do this is to find your 7 Days To Die game listed in your Steam LIBRARY, right-click on it to open the pop-up menu, select Properties, single-click on the LOCAL FILES tab, and then click on BROWSE LOCAL FILES.
4. Look in your 7 Days To Die game folder for a Mods folder. If there is NOT already a Mods folder, create one by right-clicking on any empty space in the folder window and selecting New Folder.
5. Open the 7 Days To Die game folder's Mods folder.
6. If you already HAVE an old/existing rev678_crispycritters folder, remove it from the 7 Days To Die game folder's Mods folder.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE YOU UNEXPECTED ISSUES!
7. Copy or move the rev678_crispycritters folder from the extracted zip file into the 7 Days To Die game folder's Mods folder.
Uninstall:
To uninstall this modlet, simply remove the rev678_crispycritters folder from the 7 Days To Die game folder's Mods folder.
Best Practices/Troubleshooting/Errors:
1. I strongly advise you to start a NEW game/save AFTER installing but BEFORE running this modlet. Failure to do so will likely result in an "Invalid Cast Exception" error. If you don't start a NEW game/save AFTER installing but BEFORE running this modlet, and get that error, I'm going to tell you to start a NEW game/save.
2. Sometimes an "Invalid Cast Exception" error can be corrected by "cleaning" your player profile (either using the cleaning tool in the 7DTD Launcher, or change your player profile from the in-game menus). Again though, if you don't start a NEW game/save AFTER installing but BEFORE running this modlet, and get that error, I'm going to tell you to start a NEW game/save.
3. If you DID start a NEW game/save, and still are having problems with this modlet, please try the following self-troubleshooting steps:
- Make sure 7DTD is not running.
- Move all of your existing modlet folders out of your Mods folder, say to your Desktop (TEMPORARILY).
- Restart the game, and see if you get the error you posted.
- If so, your game/save may be pooched, and you'll want to delete it and start a new game/save. Restart the game, and see if you get the error you posted.
- If so, your copy of 7DTD may be pooched, and you'll want to re-install. Restart the game, and see if you get the error you posted.
- If not, try ONLY moving my modlet folder(s) back into your Mods folder.
- Restart the game, and see if you get the error you posted.
- If so, THEN my modlet(s) may be causing your error. If that's the case, please report back here with more details (which modlets you have installed, what game version you're running, PC/MAC/Linux/console, etc), and I'll try to help you.
- If not, someone else's product(s) are causing your error, and you'll want to pursue the issue further with them.
Hope this helps, and cheers!
