Yeah, that's exactly what I did.

 
Yeah, don't get it. And now even when I try to delete the mod. It has a red check mark next to it but it doesn't give me the new command to install. Like it gives me the screen that just says play mod. Even though it had a red check next to it.

Wish this was easier to do. Guess I'll just do vanilla for now.

 
You can skip the launcher entirely and just overwrite the files with the ones you download from the link in my pervious post.

Then launch straight from the 7DaysToDie.exe in that folder (not the vanilla folder).

So if I don't have skill in let's say brick making, if I breakdown/repair brick with the brick tool I'll eventually learn to make bricks?

No. You need to do your "Learning to build with Brick" Quest. All building styles but Log Cabins are unlocked by quest. Log Cabin is the only free building block everyone starts with, its made by placing a Large Log and using the stoneaxe and narrow logs to upgrade it to Log Cabin.

All of the Building Block Styles Quest Chains are the same format

Step 1- Get the Tool.

Step 2- Using the tool destroy that type of block and collect the materials

Step 3 -Build the Frames for that style block

Step 4 -Upgrade the frames for that style block

After completing each step you will unlock some recipes by using the quest reward.

This way there is no staged progression. No do this before you can do that. The player can chose whatever path they want, they just have to do the work.

Also all swinging actions xp from tools, weapons and punching levels Upper Body. Leveling this will make you hit things harder.

I installed this manually (works fine) and also downloaded Xtrakicking's texture mod from the provided link. Now do I only replace the original resources.assets file, or do I additionally need to do something with Sphereii's resources.assets patch that's sitting in the 7D2DPatches folder and came with your zip?

 
Nope you dont need anything else just use Xtrakicking's resources.assets and replace the one in the file at -7DaysToDie/7DaysToDie_Data/- and your ready.

I didn't realize Xtrakicking's link didn't have the file path. I will update the front page to make it clear. Thanks

 
There updated the post. Let me know if anyone sees anything that needs corrected

Good info - if that was on the first page I missed it.

The quests though - gather 1000? I don't think I gathered that much on weeks of game play.

 
hi Spider,

i understand to collect the 1000 materials, if we use the proper tools, the block is destroyed much faster, but i think the cement block, 3k hp (cement mix quest) is still very hard to destroy even if using the correct tools (sledge hammer), destroying stainless steel block, 12k hp, using welder tool is so so much faster than destroy a cement block with sledge hammer. (which kinda makes cement block is tougher than stainless steel block). not sure if it was intended?

I'm having trouble getting past day 1 on scavenger level, Keep getting swarmed by soldier runners which I can't stun with my level 1 club.

You may use pick in order to reduce the strength of the blocks. And then make final strike with sledge.

But i must agree, cobblestone blocks needed only 2-3 swings of proper hammer.

It's definitely not an easy mod. Be careful. Don't go below 75% stamina. Always have a backup plan. Search for places to hide. Each time you are in a new area, prepare a building by chopping down stairs or setting up tables / frames so you can hop up on top of the roof to hide. Keep a stimulant / beer / coffee / red bull / etc on your toolbar for emergencies. Always plan your escape route. This should always be on your mind. I'm lvl 16 with no deaths but I play quite carefully and I've almost died a few times. Good luck!

 
got a question regarding " lvling barrier"

hi everyone.

it may just be me that cant see any other way.

but is there any special reason as to why stuff is locked behind player lvl

lets say the forge,,, or iron arrows ?

i hope its just me that fails to see any other way to get thease unlocked.

cheers

The goal is for slow steady progression. Vanilla 7d2d you can reach endgame in a weekend. True Survival is a slow steady grind with the difficulty cranked up. It's not for everyone.
