TheBus4K Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 32 minutes ago, stallionsden said: Hi @TheBus4K Doors in vanilla are locked also. The compopack is bigger challenge then vanilla. Some loot is well hidden. Doors locked as long as the door is of equal to the tier. The zombies and traps are more then vanilla and the level of difficulty is higher to. If you feel a poi is wrong welcome to supply a name of the poi and I will happily take a look. But the compopack has a higher rule set then vanilla as well. In regards to finding last volume these will be fixed in next release. To get name of poi - DM in console then escape - then press f3 - a set of boxes will appear on the left of h.u.d - the fly upto poi and name will appear tho sometimes you may have to fly around a bit to get name. Then simply supply and I will take a look Regards Stallionsden I'm talking about the POIs that can have quests, not random POIs. I don't remember, at least in the previous alpha and in this alpha, a quest in a POI without an "established path", that is, that you can complete the quest without breaking blocks / doors. Be careful, I'm talking about completing the quest. Although these POIs that I am talking about have an "established path" for the quest, there are areas with closed doors that you have to break if you want the loot inside, but inside there they will never spawn zombies or the package, so it's not necessary to access those areas to complete the quest. The custom POI that I have complained about in my previous comment is this: xcostum_Apartament_Stores(by_Laz_Man) That POI are several buildings which when you access wake up all the zombies (and I don't have armor that increases noise), plus you have to go floor by floor, breaking doors, windows, etc. And that with each building, and there are about 3 or 4 buildings. It seems completely illogical to me considering this is a Tier 3 quest. By the way, thanks for answering me so quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toilet doors should be unlocked if no one is inside (logical the door to be locked if someone inside) or there is loot Inside the toilet room. A poi does not have to have a path tho while questing and not all pois are dungeon style. I mean many once they been thru a vanilla poi dungeon quest and know where the loot is will line straight to it most times. But many questabe pois also are designed for you to actually search the whole house for loot and some don't exactly have a "loot room" at the end as the loot is hidden thru out. But feel happy to report any pois you feel is a issue and I will take a look 🙂 . Regards Stallionsden 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the quests to kill zombies in a vanilla POI, when there are a few zombies left, a mark appears on the screen (a small yellow circle) indicating the area where they are, but I have seen that the custom POI doesn't happen that. I was looking for a couple of hours for the zombies that I had to kill and in the end there were only 2 that were well hidden. Is it a bug? If not, can it be modified in any way?

I went through on my own and updated the tier 5 POIs. Most of them I set the ShowQuestClearCount to 3 since some of those POIs have several groups of zombies that are a pain in the neck to find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can manually change the Tier 5 and / or 4 POIs myself, perfect, but how do I do it? I imagine that I have to enter inside the .xml file of each xcostum POI, but how do I know if it's a POI of a Tier 5/4 quest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJQuad Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I'm using KingGen with mostly default settings as far as the biomes and city/towns sizes. I'm assuming with the large number of prefabs in the compo pack, a larger map should be generated. Is 8k ok or should it be bigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlassDeviant Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) WinRAR is telling me that the "A19.4 CP47 KingGen.rar" file linked in the first post is "either in unknown format or damaged". I didn't have this problem with the file for NitroGen (A19.3 CP 47 Nitrogen.rar), but as a test I downloaded it again and the new download gives the same error as the above file. Edit: Fixed. It was a Github issue. Edited July 5, 2021 by GlassDeviant (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway glad it working for you Well, I expect WinRAR to uncompress RAR files, but maybe I am weird that way. Usually when there is a problem, it is because the file was created in Linux or using 7z. Making RAR files with 7z is a bad idea in general, and I find that files made with the Linux version of WinRAR uncompress fine on Linux but occasionally have problems on Windows, but as usual YMMV. The actual problem I had was the way Github presents file downloads, there are two ways to access them and one of them gives you a damaged file. I tested this with some other projects and got the same results. Github really needs to Git their @%$# together, or just provide the one DL link to make their site proof against idiots like me. 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a particular one that is from Github itself? I searched and found...a lot of Github browser extensions, and I generally don't ever install browser extensions, for security reasons. I am guessing ovity/octotree is the best since it has by far the most "stargazers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackelmyer Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Hey guys, Long time no see. Quick question. I know a lot's changed since I was active in 7 Days. I was looking at the Modlet install method and it states, and maybe i'm reading this wrong, that the modlet has to be installed client side as well. If memory serves, back in the day we just installed the prefabs to the /prefabs folder on the server and updated the rwgmixer on the server to include the new prefabs as well. The files were downloaded to the client, and all was done. Is this not the case anymore? If i want something like that were clients don't have to do a mod install do I need to do Nigrogen's installation method? Sorry, really out of touch with all this these days. lol. Long story short: Looking to set up a server and avoid having clients do any installs manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pApA^LeGBa Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Resident Evil Mansion by Libby has 2 sleepers that do not trigger, no matter what you do. Impossible to do a clear quest without god mode. At least if you don´t have a few hours to hit every single block in the whole POI to check if there is a hidden room behind. Either their volumes need to be fixed or the POI needs the orange point thingy that shows you the last zombies. Also there were 2 spiders not spawning in unless you got really close, i could see the whole room when i first checked it, and it seemed empty, only found them because i checked every room again due to the 2 sleepers i couldn´t find and took one more step on the ladder than first time i entered the room. Don´t wanna spoil anything, i can dm someone if you need to know where they are. Edited July 12, 2021 by pApA^LeGBa (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doughphunghus Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 A question: Once a prefab(s) are submitted for this pack/collection, is "maintenance" of the POI also "handed off" or are the POI creators still responsible for keeping the POI maintained (like if a20 makes block changes, or anything that may make a POI render with errors/etc)? I ask because I have a few published in a mod (they need some tuning) and I have some "unpublished" ones I'm still working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
