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

minor graphical bug: the meat grinder, and a couple of the guns on the weapon workbench glow in the dark, aka their texture isn't being modified by lighting

Probably should contact the mod developers, of whichever mod you found that in :)

 
Good morning Sphereii

I thought I would Try the Starvation Mod .. It took a bit to get it to launch ..

1st .. Install mod .. it needs to clone and do gif update .. waited for it to do it's thing about 5 minutes .. didn't think it was working .. close launcher.

2nd .. Opened launcher again and thought I would give it one more chance .. This time it bought up files and loaded .. then it sat in the load menu screen for about 2-3 minutes .. before going into the 7D2D load screen .. But Finally it did load and is running ok.

For sure a different type of 7D2D game .. not sure about it yet .. only good thing is I had a great start location.

But I think I still prefer .. Dawn of the Apocalypse .. over them all .. so many mods in it and it does work well.

Anyway .. I read some people were having problems with Starvation and it is a bit slow going to get it to launch the first time.

Enjoy the weekend and have some fun

Starvation is a large mod; the initial download is over 700 megs, so takes awhile to download and start up. Unfortunately, there's not much we can do about it. Starvation adds a ton of content to the game, but it comes at a cost :)

Keep searching through the mods; there's some nice gems in there for everyone :)

 
Afternoon Sphereii

I also noticed it adds it own folder to game save files, not just save game.

Was up til 4AM playing and getting ready for day 7 ....... The random Hordes are bad in Survivalist .. [They took out a reinforced concrete wall about 12 block long x 3 block high] .. I think I will turn it down to warrior (Never played warrior .. always thought - just a bit to easy ... LOL)

Enjoy the weekend .. Later

I always love it when I over-estimate the game, thinking I'm super-macho. I'm sphereii, after all! I got this.

No... no, I don't got it....

Lesson learned continuously :)

This is tricky, and the answer is: Maybe.

A16.4 updated one XML file, and it's not a critical fix. So any XML-only mods will be fine, as would the compo pack.

Mods that change the DLL, like Bigger Back Pack, or SDX mods, will probably be broken until the mod dev puts out a new release.

One last thing Sphereii

I just ran .. 3 games .. all good So Far ... The Saved games are still Launching at A 16.3 (b12) .. so No issues.

I think the problem will be if Someone try's to start a .. ( New Game ) .. and then they will have issues .... until the Mods are updated .... But AS long as they play a Old Save .. they should be OK

ALSO .. This IS .. for anyone else Reading the Post about the Update A 16.4

ONE More Time .... Enjoy the Weekend and Have Some Fun .. Gary

 
Quick question:

Where are the git clones stored locally?

Edit:

Nevermind. I found it under the mod's target folder in TempMods

Yes if you use SDX to mod anything in 16.4 your ICShard.dll will be reverted to 16.3 and the game will be recognized as 16.3

 
I saw no option on the app to check for updates, and I didn't see any information on the site that would let me know whether I'm using the latest version or not. How do I do that?

 
Sorry for the trouble. It looks like Starvation is not installed correctly.
Did you get any errors when you first installed it through the mod launcher?

Is there anyway i could fix this ?

Yes, let's get it working for you. Can you go into the Mod Launcher, after failing to load Starvation, and click on the View menu, then Log files? There's two logs there, one for the launcher (7d2dlauncher.txt), and another one for the game (output_log.txt). It'll give you a pastebin.com link. If you share that with me, we can get it sorted out.

Here's a visual guide: https://imgur.com/a/QXEg5

 
Is there any way to set the program to copy on D: instead of C: ?

Yes, you can change the Destination Folder For Mods by clicking on any of the top level folders. Clicking on something like Xtrakicking, sphereii-mental, should show you a little blue folder to change from C:\7D2D to whatever you'd like.

 
Hi there Sphereii. I was wondering if you could give me a hand. I am trying to use your launcher to play starvation but it keeps getting stuck at no previous GIT detected recloning. Do I just wait it out? It's been about 10 minutes

Sorry for the trouble. Is it repeating that message? Starvation is a large mod, and can take anywhere from 10 to 60 minutes to download the first time.
