(V1 Series) Vehicle Madness (Updated November 24th 2024)

[KeuleAufKopf]

Hello! I installed VM yesterday on a new save, but most of the items don't show their icons. 

For example: the default 7D2D Car Batteries, VM Wire Cutters, VM Wheels, Carburetors .
Is there anything I can do about this, or to understand what is causing them to not show up?
 

Hey LCsTarBuZz,

i recently checked everything but couldn't notice any kind of this issue. Are you using other mods or do you make mods by yourself? If so, please tell me your mods so i can check them. 
Thank you in advance

best regards

Hi

KeuleAufKopf,

I use several modlets, some selfmade, but most of them are downloaded from Nexus or 7d2dmods.

The only Warnings regarding VM in my logs are the following lines:

Thank you for your reply  LCsTarBuZz !
You are right, load order is based on the folder names (A-Z). May there's something incompatible in those other vehicle mods you've downloaded. But no worries, i'll take a look on those. For now, please just rename the VM folder to: 0_VehicleMadness_Beta4_v5_V1 . Once i found out, i will tell you what mod causes the issue.

Thanks, I'll rename VM and test if there is happening anything new in the console.

Unfortunately the ItemIcons are still missing, after putting VM at the top of the load order.

So i've tested all those mods you've got installed and couldn't notice any of those issues...
Please follow the steps below:

1. Delete the VM folder
   
2. Start a new creative game
   
3. Close your game and reinstall VM
   
4. Start your game, load into your world and take a look on those items in the creativemenu
   

If this still doesn't work, please re-do those steps but without any other mods. Even if all worked for me, it doesn't mean it works for you. We had something similar in the past, so might worth a shot in your case. Please let me know if those steps worked for you.

Thank you in advance

I did the steps in that exact order with no success.
After removing all mods and reinstalling vm again, the Icons are still missing.

Seems like nearly the same issue we got in the past. Just to explain: I shared some wip-stuff with the team. For me and Ragsy everything worked as intended. But not for AC  (ACTINIUMTIGER). Game throwed errors at him. He did everything getting it to work without any results. We're still stuck at this one tbh. That brings me in mind....
If you want to, please move to your games folder and delete
\7DaysToDie_Data
\doorstop_libs  
If you got this done, let steam validate your gamefiles and repair it. It seems like, something is wrong with the game itself. Just letting steam validate your files wouldn't work since steam can't look into the game sources aka .dll files. If this doesn't work, i will need to discuss this situation later with the team. Just keeping fingers crossed and hoping.
If you try this, please let me know if this worked for you. It'd be an big help for our situation either.
 
Thank you in advance

I try redownloading the whole game because I had version 1.1 stable selected in Steam in the Betas Menu and now I selected "None" I don't really know if this does make a difference,

but I will try and report back.
 

It's really weird. At first I thought that there is some compatibility issue with my installed mods, but even without any other mods, the problem persists.
I hope redownloading the game helps.

Does it make a difference, when putting mods in the old or the new mod folder? I recently switched to the new UserDataFolder, even though I hate to have so many files on my C:/ Drive.

Tested reinstalling the game, but no luck here. Some Icons just refuse to show up, some just work.

Thank you for you effort! Indeed, this issue is really weird. We don't even know why or what causes it. I'm not really guessing that it makes such a difference since the game only reads the path... but still maybe worth a try.  If this doesn't work, it must be something game or windows sided. I don't really know, since we're stuck at this point too.

I just tested this on my girlfriends pc and there the same problem happens.

If I can help testing possible solutions or ideas, please contact me and I'd be glad to help.

Ragsy, I don't know if you are aware, but you cannot craft more than a quantity of 1 of the battery charging tool (not sure if that's the exact name because I don't have it in front of me, but the part you craft using a battery for making restoration kits).  You can queue up more, but only in quantities of 1.

I will take a look at some point soon .....   Kuele started a Vehicle Madness showcase Video a while back in V1.0 and this shows the vehicles minus the VM Mach1 mustang .   Some since then have had visual add on upgrades as listed in the V1.1 Update text on OP .

Also Please note :

Small Vehicle Madness Update 24/11/2024

In the mean time there is a small update for Vehicle Madness Pushed to gitlab ..... this small update is a rework of some of the icons in VM

This is not going to affect any game saves and can be downloaded at your own convenience...... it addresses an issue a user had with icons not visible on his set up due to some icons not set at 160 x160

Link is same as in the Original forum post in this thread

A pequena cabana é um poi vanilla, a outra não faz parte do Vehicle Madness.   

Acho que o da foto no bioma de neve é parte de outra reformulação em que arramus está envolvido. Parece muito bom, devo dizer.

Cumprimentos

Esfarrapado!!

Congratulations, the mod is incredible, I hope you always update this mod, bringing more war vehicles and normal vehicles, could you give an example, modern war tank, armored vehicles, Trucks + Semi-trailer, ideas that many people want and ask for, but no one has ever done, you could bring modern combat vehicles, tanks, jets, ships, trucks, etc... your work is amazing

Thank you for the kind words about our work in Vehicle Madness

Have you checked these other vehicle mods out Vehicle Mods and More Vehicle Mods   

There are quite a few military things and other suitable vehicle mods to look at.

The Semi Truck with Trailer mods the Vehicle Madness team have experimented with is definately a thing but so far we find that it does not work correctly in Multiplayer games ( desync issues),  hopefully we can get a work around at some point. 

On another note so far I have not seen any issues with Vehicle Madness in the latest update V1.2.

Ragsy !!

I was having some fun with cars from VM and a jump across a river.  Here's a sample.  I recommend increasing the quality to 1080p.

Damn that is some Impressive building.

 

[Fat Monkey 1000]

Love the mod. Definitely the best variety I've ever seen, the lights and sirens on emergency cars are very cool.

However the one issue I'm having at the moment is that it feels impossible to harvest car chassis, I went around a city harvesting all the VM vehicles I could with an impact driver and found that I didn't get any, so I ended up spawning a load of the damaged BMWs and got every single item except the chassis. I checked the blocks xml and noticed it said destroy for the damagedcarchassis and not harvest unlike every other possible harvestable item alongside it. I'm no coder at all but am I stupid or is this a genuine issue?
