[Alpha 20 Dev Diary]

Ok. I'm sure someone asked this here or in another thread, but since we are getting closer to A20, here it is. Is FOV going to be adjustable to 100 or so?  I'm another one of those motion sick gamers, I play only with family and none of us uses the "I can see thru the wall or world" aspect of the FOV.  I'll still play 7D2D but play time will be increments of 15mins if I have to go outside and walk around.

Getting motionsick at 117 horizontal FOV sound kind of weird to me, but who am I to tell you what your own experience is. 🤷‍♂️

I agree, my hubby thinks it is quite ridiculous, but I once got motion sick in a CARWASH because the car stayed stationary and the walls moved and I wasn't prepared for it.  It isn't about targeting or anything like that, it effects me mostly when I am trying to just move around.  I'm gonna try some of the things they mentioned above, but 85 makes the game unplayable after about 15mins for me.

Hello!  Ok, I just need the FOV part.  Is the MOD working for 19.5.  I need the FOV set at 95 so I'm not getting motion sick.  Is making the customPrefs.xml with the code you posted enough to make the change or do I need to get DMT and install your modlet?

I'm ready to play again but the 85 FOV cap is still making me sick.  Is there a mod that has the option to change it to 95 or something?

[Regarding "Bullet Tips" and "Bullet Casings"]

Try living with an autistic comparative philologist.  Did you know that decadent means rotting or putrid?  Yeah me either, but my lovely husband prevented me from extreme embarrassment when marketing my desserts with that word...

 

I was also confused about the bullet tip / casing thingy but you know, they kill zombies pretty good no matter what you call them.

Thank you!!!  I didn't get an alert about a reply or I would have thanked you sooner.  I'll look at those mods they sound perfect.

Hubby and I love this game. We don't play as often as we would like because new versions frequently require modding, which hubby can do, but takes him time and energy he doesn't really have.  So if there is a mod already made out there that might fit perhaps one of you know it. He doesn't like playing on the lowest setting (not sure why)

 

• No vultures or demolition zombies - basically anything that cuts thru concrete like butter
• Reduced block damage by all zombies (I think hubby sets this at 50%)
• Alternate recipe for torches - I think coal and sticks or something
• Lower stamina usage for tools.

 

I am sure there are other things he adds, but those are the ones that stop us from playing as rebuilding a base every horde night (even set to 28 days) is too much to allow us to enjoy the game. I would love more crops and blocks, but that isn't really a focus, but if the mod includes those things, I'm for it. I'd like to have it be able to be run on a server machine, but I can do it across the LAN hosting the game if the mod won't work on a server.  Not using anticheat since it is just 2 of us playing.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

 

EDIT: I can get a complete list of what he changes when he wakes up.

Is there a plan to allow the Field of View to be set much larger for those of us that get severely motion sick while playing at lower settings?

Ok, reallyreallyreally NEED higher FOV. period fullstop. I love this game, but not enough to endure hours of simulator sickness to play it.
