War of the Walkers mod

If YOU READ THE Update Notes for 5.3.3 .. you will see survivors and Bandits REMOVED for Performance reason … (mainly due to they kept causing issues at the Trader.)
Ok thank you, I must have missed those notes, I had just read the notes on post #1 where you download the V5.3.3(B58) r8.30.2018 Alpha 16.4 (b8) which state survivors and bandits. Kinda bummed!

 
Anyone know of any good seeds for WOTW? The last few I've tried have had almost no traders, class halls and no major metropolis. A retirement center is a bonus but not required.

 
On WotW 5.3 which I em using is 'dyingismymiddlename' seed and found like 5 Class traders (two of them really close on the open, rest in towns), retirement home really close and every town have class trader or regular trader, 4-5 daycare's, one or two crack-a-book towers and a lot of gym's. I love gyms and day care. And few ships of course. Al that in city close to me and first cities on each side from that central city. I would wish maybe more crack-a-book towers but its not bad.

 
Does anybody others also think the new 5.3 is to much nerfed on the progression? I'd always like the fun of nice progression, but now, a lot of class quests can't be done until a high game level is reached. And to level up the wooden club you need to player level 10. But leveling up with a wooden club of 50 takes forever because the zombies just wont die :-).

 
Hi

First i want to say that i really like WotW mod, it feels more like vanilla 7 Days to Die should look.

So i registered here on forum since i got some questions that i cannot find answer to (sorry for any grammar mistakes, my native language is Polish).

My first question is about zombie spawning, i have no idea (i never went 60+ days in vanilla) if WotW mod changed something about this feature, but above 50 days i think zombies started spawning almost on top of my head. Sometimes they also spawn inside my very large base made in forest (they shouldn't be able to get inside yet they spawn like it is forest ground (i used flagstone block as base)).

When i was working on my base i suddenly changed my camera to my back position and i've seen zombie spawning just in front of me (he was floating just a bit in air before he reached ground level). This is very annyoing and doesn't feel to me like feature, but bug.

Second one is about updating WotW mod because i'm still on 5.3.0 version (B48 i think it was), i've seen there was wipe required for later versions so i guess i can't update if i want to play on 5.3.0 savegame? (or wipe was only about ability to see world generation changes?)

 
Would anyone know how to modify the game so almost no wasteland biomes are generated? I have tried a few dozen seeds and each seems to spawn me next to one of these biomes. I have to either go across one to get to a trader (or it's in one) or the closest town is partially in a wasteland biome. For starting out, this biome makes it harder to survive due to what spawns there (eyeing the 2 irradiated cops I seem to always find).

 
my server was on day 272 then we went to day 273 horde nite and then when day 274 come it set us back to day 272 all it keeps doing any idea why ???? i have the bot on my server so its set to shut down every 2 hrs but its not reading a saved world for day 273 and 274 why it taken us back to day 272 last save the botman has so something goin on with mod ..

 
First time playing WoW and it's great! Lots of fun :)

Question: I'm unable to salvage flat screen TVs using a Wrench.

Also no joy salvaging end tables with lamps, light fixtures.

___Edit: no joy trying to Salvage the various Consoles that give Eletrical Parts/Components in vanilla.

___ the utility pole 'tops' are salvagable w Wrench

If anyone could let me know if that is per design or not I'd really appreciate it!

and unable to "Pick Up" Electric Fence Posts. <-Edit: forgot to place a land claim, doh!

---

Has anyone added back in the ability of the Wrench to Upgrade/Repair? If so would you be kind enough to post the xml bits? ___ Edit: believe the Repair is working fine, just not Upgrading.

Reason being: I'm always carrying a Wrench to Salvage, and while looting I occasionally want to wall off an entry/window. Right now I'm winding up crafting then scrapping a Hammer, and, frankly, it's just becoming a bit of a pain...heh.

Oh, Plastic. Any tips on where a good source is? Trying to gather 250 for one of the Class Quests. Only know that Blinds yield Plastic...

Thanks in advance!

When I was working on those quests to get a tremendous amount of plastics, I routinely checked traders for any surplus which helped to in-bulk boost the amount, also try any schools or POI with student desks, there are always a dozen or more per room and they give plastic, also those bathtubs, give quite a bit of plastic depending on the quality/material of axe you are using (sometimes over 20 units per tub if you have a good axe + skill), check the class machines as well (if you have any of your own or if you find a trader with class vending machines).

 
Im not sure if anyone has ask this before. When I try to play wotw 5.3 with eac enabled it will out run

does anyone know how to fix this

thanks

Excellent tips @Xeph , Thanks! I did wind up buying some from the Trader. Didn't hit any schools since I'd found a few book stores, & had completely forgotten the desks yield plastic, gah... Will definately give bathtubs a try. Much appreciated!

 
Hi there! Guys why the zombies don't run in the night time? The settings are set to default (Day walk, Night run).
I'm new to WoW but my understanding is that Z's that run will run, no matter day or night. So Football players always run, Ferals as well.

Be warned that night time spawns seem to heavily favor irradiated/feral type Z's, so while a 'normal' Marlene/Boe/etc will still walk at night, they aren't as likely to spawn; their more hyper versions are.

If I got that wrong hopefully someone will correct me, but it's the best I can offer, hope it helps :)

 
In case anyone else has been stumped by trying to harvest Electric Parts from lights, seems a Screwdriver is needed. huh.

In the blocks.xml file starting at porchLight01 the Harvest lines have,

"<drop event="Harvest" name="electricParts" count="1,4" tool_category="Screwdriver"/>"

while original file has,

"<drop event="Harvest" name="electricParts" count="1,4" tool_category="Disassemble"/>"

Some common 'wrenched' items like Fridges/AirCond appear to be set up so either a wrench (or a Disassemble tool) -or- a Screwdriver can be used and will yield same type & number of bits.

The big one that I couldn't wrench were the 'consoles' or 'control panels'. Haven't tested but 90% sure they are the "controlPanelBase01".

(ones with decaled dials/lights/levers/etc, also used as the base for the very tall Truss towers at the, I think, 'Cell Tower POI'.)

And it takes a Screwdriver to harvest Electric/Electronic Parts from them.

---

Worth noting that there are several additional "tool_category" beyond "Disassemble" & Screwdriver;

IronHarvest

SteelHarvest

TungstenHarvest

HDDisassemble

Haven't dug down to find out what's in each. If anyone cares to then they might want to check out "cntCar03SedanDamage0" (blocks.xml) for an example of what each yields.

 
Me too, without the hashtag :p

Wow, Linda...thanks for the suggestion and the help. Honestly, I've been trying this only with single player, so therefore, I don't think I'm on a server. I hear my kids and husband playing it and I honestly didn't even think about roping them into starting a multiplayer game and letting me try. Don't feel too bad, school is back in so I'm getting my revenge in the "NO GAMES DURING THE SCHOOL WEEK"...but it may cause a civil war this week end, so I'll try and take you up on your kind offer! LoL
I'll repost if it works or not. I'd love to find a common denominator in those of us that are experiencing this. So far, two of us have the exact same video card (GeForce GTX 1050). I really hope I don't have to pester my husband into changing my video card out...this is a fairly new computer, only about 8 months old. =/
I was having the same problems using the mod launcher. I cut tjat out of the equation, and created a desktop shortcut for WOTW. Haven't had a problem yet running on mp server.

 
Hey thanks for the great mod and the amazing work. I just have a quick question is item scraping like empty can door nob etc. locked behind a perk? if yes wich one? Could find it.

There are "Scrapping for Dummies" (At least the texture looks like it) Books for Iron, Brass, Plastic, Tungsten, etc. Can be annoying to get them all...
