I apologize if this has already been answered (I've looked through the first 50 pages of this thread and didn't see an answer). How the heck do you get sticks? The Bow & Arrow quest implies that you can find them, but all I've found so far are branches. Is there any sort of beginners guide for the mod?
By the way, this is a phenomenally well crafted mod. Nice work!

For those having problems choosing their Profession please follow these complex and unorthodox instructions
Step one - Make sure you have the mod installed properly by starting a SP game before joining the server the first time.
Step two - Log into the server
Step three - Craft your Profession Kit
Step four - Place you Profession Kit on solid ground(not on top of grass or water)
Step five - Punch or use key to unlock Profession Kit
Step six - Open Profession Kit
Step seven - Hit "R"
Done
I know this is very complicated and challenging, if you need me to make a video please let me know{sarcasm off}

@Kalen-
The 32 Starting quest explain a lot of the new systems and feature of the mod. Also the rest is explained in detail in your Journal with "Mod Notes"
The mod uses the scrap function for many things like crafting sticks. Try scraping everything you can to see what it breaks down into it is not always the same as vanilla.

Hi there, does anyone know if there is a way to change part of an xml file without the 7dtd launcher overwriting it at each game launch, for example I am trying to slow down the angry chickens slightly (my aim is not quick enough), i have found the chicken in entity classes xml in the config file and edited it accordingly, but when i launch the game through the launcher, it creates a new folder called temp mods and inside is a new config file/entityclasses xml which has overwritten my edit.
I have tried unchecking "refresh mods automatically" on the launcher to see if that did anything, but then the game does not load at all
Thankyou in advance

Same me was hard on 1st day always killed me by fast run zombies is cheated because running out of stamina & my club level 1 too weak, I have good idea turn off zombies spawn on 1-3 day build up strength & setup any house then turn on come back spawn zombies.
Wow look badly hill on video that why I modded rwgmixer.xml make nice bit flatten land & less hilly & few water because I don't like hill cause hard to run uphill & blocked view any zombies come.

i would say it's not cheated. i've already witness around 6 other players in the official test server that are able to survive their first couple of days spawning into the game without dying. some have luck, some maybe not, but let's say that there's really some other way to survive your first couple days of spawning into the game, other than just having a running contest with the zombies, you'll definitely lose hahah try figure some other way to escape from the zombie's onslaught, make use of your surroundings xD its fun if you think of it as a challenge xP

I realize most 7D2D players just simply refuse to read anything in game but it sounds like you are not following the very first tip I give you. This is the text you see as soon as you spawn the first time pulled straight from the game files
"Welcome Survivor,
Forget what you know about 7 Days to Die it will not help you here. Approach this Mod from a fresh perspective or you will surely be eaten by the horde or surcome to the elements."
You must adapt and not be so ridged in your vanilla play style that instead of accepting the challenge and testing your self you would prefer to just make the game easier. Please if you are going to edit the files to make the mod easier !DO NOT! tell or brag about surviving in True Survival because you are not.

Hi Spider, my bad all along, my steam 7D2D was A16.3... I downgraded to A16.2 and it works perfectly !
When you released mod, it certainly did work cause A16.3 wasn't out IIRC, then the copy the mod created of the game was a A16.2 version, that's why it did most probably work, even if my steam 7D2D became A16.3 in the meantime.
Anyway, sorry for the hassle and don't hesitate to indicate to dwongrade to A16.2 in your "advice for installation" post, it might be useful and solve problems for dummies like me
Again, thx for that mod !

#1 When running from certain death never run uphill
- the zed was between me and downhill so I ran up to get some distance from it than ran downhill
#2 When running from certain death dont stop to loot or pick flowers
- I wasn't picking flowers it was a bird's nest and I was hoping there was some feathers in there to make arrows
#3 Its not a good idea to try and kill a armored undead corpse with a level 1 old tree branch you picked up
Did you see the day and time? I have been playing less than 10m on day 1. I had a level 1club and a level 5 club. I guess I could grind clubs right at the start but I'm usually racing against the clock to find a place to base up.
#4 When running from something that wants to kill you its not a good strategy to run 50 yards then wait for them to catch up, then run 50 yards
then wait for them to catch up, then run 50 yards and wait for them to catch up. You might try losing line of sight and hiding
- When I stopped I crouched trying to break line of sight but I kept running into more running zombies. Also I was out of stamina so I was trying to regen some before sprinting again.
#5 And never ever, ever ever try and fight a bunch of zombie by punching them in the mouth. That's Zombie Survival 101
- Those are the only weapons you have left and i was out of stamina, fists were all I had left.
#6 You will not always be able to win in any given situation. Like in life sometime all you can do is run.
- Agreed, the vid was poking fun at myself not a knock against TS. Honestly if hadn't run into that 2nd running soldier zombie I probably would of survived.
On a side note you might want to mess with your video settings. It looks like you have you vision set real low. Your zombie are popping into view when they are close. You are not seeing them spawn far a way on the ground like you should.
- Vid/Range settings were on max and I saw no instances of popping in zombies when watching the vid.
