The 7D2D Mod Launcher - A Mod Launcher for 7 Days to Die

Borderless Fullscreen

Is there an option somewhere for borderless fullscreen, or what file controls it since its not the steam library install?

Hmm, not that I know of. First time someone's asked me this :)

The Mod Launcher just executes the 7daystodie.exe. I'm not sure if there's a setting in game to handle that, or if it's available at the command prompt. I would add an option for it, it's a command line switch.

Yea, i just add -popupwindow under the launch options in steam, just wasn't sure if there was a work around that.

 
Afternoon Sphereii

Just wondering .. How will we know what's been updated to the new Alpha 16.3 ... just released today.

Without going into the game and check what just loaded. I know some Mods are not going to work right out of the window you could say.

And I know what's already been launched will still be the older of the updates .. I guess what I'm asking is how we will know when modders update the launcher links to the newer A16.3

Hopefully you understand what I'm trying to spit out here in a round about way.

Anyway, I'll check back later and hope you are doing well .. And enjoy the up coming weekend.

Hey man. I'd keep an eye on the modders threads for updates. Some will be ready in a few hours, since they have been keeping up with the experimental branch.

For a general rule, it's really hard for the mod launcher to figure out if a.mod is compatible or not. It's been on my mind for the last year and no answer yet how I can do it.

 
I just have to come here and give ya props sphereii. This launcher is a great tool that allows me (and I'm sure many others) to play around with different mods without having to make new copies of 7 Days (not that it's hard but still) and keep them all on track and updated. Glad you also added SurvivalUKs Better Balance mod. Thanks again boss.

Certainly is a weird situation. Sorry you are having trouble.

Are you using Advanced Mode or Simple mode? My suggestion is to delete your steam install of 7 days to die, and re-sync. Then, using the Mod Launcher, re-make the War of the Walkers. Your save game will be safe.

 
So my husband and I are trying to use this for Ravenhearst, but when we are ingame none of the icon/images of the things in our backpack show up. Any suggestions here, we have tried hardcoding the files directly into our games and server and tried using the launcher with and without EAC and have verified the integrity of our files with no luck.

Sorry you are having trouble.

With Ravenhearst select, can you click on the View Menu, then go to Log Files. Look in the drop down for the Launcher.txt log file, and click on Upload Log. It'll give you a pastebin.com link. If you give me that link, I'll take a look at the issue.

Thanks Sphereii, but we figured out the issue, we turned it over to Advanced and it actually downloaded and installed it properly. But we are having an issue with getting it to work inour Dedicated Server, not using the launcher but the links in the launcher for the server.

The client side DLL won't work on the server, which is probably why you are having some trouble. Look for the server-side DLL version for the backpack mod, and it should work. I think it's a 45-slot?

 
@sphereii for some reason the launcher doesn't work for me when I install True Survival. I downgrade to 16.2 then install the mod, it turns green. But when I launch it's just the vanilla version.

Sorry for the trouble. Let's get you sorted out.

Are you using Advanced mode?

Can you provide me some log files? After you start the game, and loads up in vanilla, exit the game, and go back to the Mod Launcher.

Click on the View menu, then Log Files. You'll see a drop down with two log files: 7d2dlauncher.txt and output_log.txt

Can you select them one at a time, then click on Upload Log file. It'll show a pastebin.com link. If you can give me those links, we'll figure it out.

 
EDIT: Yes. Using advanced mode. I used True Survival in a15 perfectly.

Is this what you want? https://pastebin.com/z9kn0XxM

It seems when laucnhing it says "clone mode detected. No previous GIT exist. Recloning" So it's not finding the files. Unlike Valmod on your launcher it works fine. I download the mod and when I launch it. It says, clone mode detected, then it downloads the GitHub. This one doesnt. Not sure what the problem is, or why it's not receiving the files.

Yes. Used advanced mode. I used True Survival back in a15 and it worked fine.

Is this what you want? It doesn't seem like when I'm starting up that it's downloading the files correctly. Compared to when I start up Valmod it says it's downloading the github files etc.

When I try to start True Survival it doesn't load and nothing is happening. Then i close your launcher, relaunch it and click true survival it says recloning, recloning but it doesn't seem to be downloading the files.

Thank you for the logs. Yes, that's what I wanted to see.

Does the message recloning repeat itself ? You could try to delete the TempMods folder directly, then click on Test Mod Sync. I don't see in the log file that you attempted to start the game. When you click on Play Mod, it'll copy the files from TempMods, and actually installs the mod at that point.

 
I got it! :)

Just had to wait longer! thanks

One other question, do I have to go back to 16.2 every time I launch this true survival in the launcher or since it was downloaded on the 16.2 I can go back to 16.3 and leave it like that for my vanilla game without having to switch back.

 
Once you've created the 16.2 verison of True Survival, it'll stay that way.

You can change your Steam version back to 16.3. Just continue to use the Mod Launcher to launch True Survival, and it'll always launch the 16.2 version.
