The handcrafted way is by simply copying your game directory to somewhere else and call the shell script in there (7DaysToDie.sh or similar) if you want to play that game. Steam has to run in the background while doing this even though you don't use it. The comfortable way is to install the Mod Launcher for 7 Days to Die, a management utility that handles multiple versions and automatically installs mods as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you currently play Darkness Falls? It seems from your post you know how difficult DF is so you must have played it? Can you not set up your daughter in the same way? By handcrafted he means not using the mod launcher. Mod launcher can be found here: http://7d2dmodlauncher.org/ Probably the simplest way to do it if you are not good with computers. Doing by hand is simple though, you copy and paste your 7Days directory into a new folder and then run the 7DaysToDie.exe from within there (or create a shortcut). Just to add, this is not he Darkness Falls thread, it's over here. Edited February 13, 2022 by MikeyUK (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense given what my google search told me about 7 Days and controller issues, writing on boxes being one of them! 7 Days really doesn't support controllers that well so good luck with getting the mods to work properly without the usual keyboard and mouse. Dunno if something like this may help and stop using BPM? https://www.rewasd.com/community/config/7-days-to-die-controller-support/37223a74c89fe137c43d6841d39e94ea Hopefully someone else on here plays with a controller and can give you some help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoaxmetal Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Is there a way to disable/change the shift-keys shortcut for 15 Slot Toolbelt? I often change items while sprinting and it messes up my gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaDiGui Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Hi, I am creating a modpack for live streaming, I was wondering if I have permission to use "Chicken Coops" in a modlet of my own that I will create using xpath. I would like to make some growtick, recipes, and loot adjustments, to make it a little more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackgryphon Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 ChickenCoop mod issue: I keep getting this one the server constantly. Is it an issue? If so, does it have a fix? Or can I just ignore it? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GotinDrachenhart Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Once again, thank you so much for all the hard work!! We're using this in MP (wife hosts on her machine), and it's working fine. At least, until we went to try the A20 wandering horde mod. It's the only mod we're running. Whenever the director spawns a wandering horde the console starts spamming the null reference warning on the hosting machine endlessly. It makes it so you can't do anything because the console is always showing itself. This is a fresh, clean install of the base game and DF btw. Thanks for any help you or anyone else can provide 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravagec Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 @KhaineGB hi, im running darkness falls and wanted to add Wandering Horde Frequency but when i do i get a null reference error randomly, i assume when the horde spawns, any ideas what might be causing the problem?

KhaineGB Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 Yeah. it clearly states it's for vanilla, not DF 😛 You need the DF specific version that's posted in the discord On 2/27/2022 at 6:53 AM, GotinDrachenhart said: Once again, thank you so much for all the hard work!!

I've used the RWG tweak mod by MageDaddy to get some big cities, but can't quite find the mix to scrunch them all together, even on a small map. At 42, I'm so far behind the times on modding and what-does-what that I feel like I'm starting over from scratch half the time.... 🥴 If it's something you guys wanted to keep private though, for his video series runthrough, all good then. I love watching that crazy git get hookered... 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaineGB Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Sure. I don't mind sharing the base mod. Then you can just tweak numbers and experiment.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qeewxlxJsUKW2QopMGc8ILsVU5mB9Y_0/view?usp=sharing Also, you're only a year older than me. You got this.

PROJECT-BLUE Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I'm running a dedicated Dakrness Falls server and would also like to run Kill Tracking but it appears that when Kill Tracking is installed you can no longer see the Trader reputations - is there any way to have both display? I'm competent enough with computers to edit the XML files if needed - if there's something I can change in these to run both? Thanks for the great mods Khaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
