Unofficial XML Fixes

If you change xml like it, you can't craft clawHammer no longer.....

Good point. It is as intended and not a bug.

jamokoo · September 25, 2016

boiled water (in a can) cannot be used with same recipes as bottled water. is this on purpose? does not make sense...

Gazz · September 25, 2016

is this on purpose?

Yes.

Kubikus · September 27, 2016

Yes.

@Gazz:

There is a naming-convention-violation in blocks.xml.

The regular naming-convention is material-shape, for example woodRamp or steelPyramid.

Everything that is called "wood" is made of the same material, also using the same texture, and everything called "Ramp" is the same block shape.

The catwalks and all the associated blocks violate that, id 1271 - 1277 for wood and 1278 - 1285 for metal.

The biggest issue is the naming of the blockshape:

The wooden catwalk shape is

	<property name="Shape" value="New" />
<property name="Model" value="catwalk" />

The metal catwalk shape is

	<property name="Shape" value="New" />
<property name="Model" value="catwalk_metal" />

These are two different shapes, yet they have the same name "Catwalk". This counts for the other related blocks as well, one more example is the CatwalkRailing, this is the wooden block, called "woodCatwalkRailing":

<property name="Model" value="catwalk_rail" />

This is the metal block, called "metalCatwalkRailing":

<property name="Model" value="catwalk_rail_metal" />

Also, what's called "wood" and "metal" in the catwalks, is not the same "wood" and "metal" used in other blocks. The woodBlock, woodRamp etc. use the material "wood", the metalPipe, metalPipeCorner, etc. use the material "metal", both unlike the woodCatwalk and the metalCatwalk.

An appropriate naming would be something like this:

cwood - material for wooden catwalk blocks using the material "MwoodCatwalk"

CatwalkWood - shape name for wooden catwalk blocks

cmetal - material for metal catwalk blocks using the material "MmetalCatwalk"

CatwalkMetal - shape name for metal catwalk blocks

So:

cwoodCatwalkWood

cwoodCatwalkWoodRailing

woodWeakRailing (->)

cwoodCatwalkWoodRailingCNR

cwoodCatwalkWoodStairsBoardRailing

cwoodCatwalkWoodWedgeRailing

cwoodCatwalkWoodWedge

and

cmetalCatwalkMetal

cmetalCatwalkMetalRailing

metalRailing (->)

cmetalCatwalkMetalRailingCNR

cmetalCatwalkMetalStairsBoard

cmetalCatwalkMetalStairsBoardRailing

cmetalCatwalkMetalWedgeRailing

cmetalCatwalkMetalWedge

The railing being made of a different material also is somewhat annoying, I assume it's to make the blocks weaker against cop-puke. I'd prefer if they were just penetrable for the puke.

In case you wonder why I care: I massproduce blocks with different shapes and materials, and these new blocks break out of the pattern, for no good reason but, I assume, oversight.

Gazz · September 27, 2016

Perfection is a neat goal but then people happen. =P

Not all blocks are created equal and they can have different purposes while still being "more wood than not-wood".

If you want to mass produce things, put your preferred search pattern in the localised name. =P

Kubikus · September 27, 2016

I mean "mass produce" as in modding all kinds of shapes with all kinds of materials, it's done with a script and works flawlessly with everything but the catwalks.

So you can't fix a couple of names? Takes 10 minutes or so.

Go to your steam game library, Right click 7 days to die, Select the following: Properties> Local Files> Browse Local Files.

Doing that will bring you to your 7 days to die install folder which is where you need to put the Mods folder from WOTWM.

ok so i found where my file was. forgot it was on SSD drive not standard C drive. Ive followed all the steps in each forum ive found and all same the same, but for some reason im still not seeing the icons in game. other players in my clan have done the same and are now displaying the items ingames. ive unistalled the game and completely removed all related files from my pc even through regedit. i reinstall updated and re downloading and extracted the mod and data files and still not seeing the icons in games. what am i missing?

This isn't exactly the right spot to provide this support, You should post in the General Help section or even just in the general Mods section.

Verify your game files through steam, download the mod you wish to use, extract it to your desktop, Open that folder, Inside should be 2 folders (Data, Mods). Copy those 2 folders into your 7 days to die root folder (follow the steps posted in my last message). Overwrite the files it asks. Launch your game, it should work.

Once completed, your root folder for 7 days to die should look like this:

If this doesn't work, I strongly suggest starting a new help thread in one of the aforementioned locations so people can try to help you without derailing another topic.

Thanks! And ok I have now fixed the missing economic values for these that you have listed as well as made it so that drawbridge and garage door can not be sold to traders.

If you think that should be allowed or not let me know.

Clockwork Orange · April 9, 2017

Update (04/09/17)

Version 3.17

+Blocks

Fixed missing economic values for:

chair01 - EconomicValue = 15

tv - EconomicValue = 100

woodHalf - EconomicValue = 10

metalReinforcedWoodDrawBridge - EconomicValue = 150 (not sellable to traders)

painting02 - EconomicValue = 25

painting01 - EconomicValue = 25

garageDoorMetal_v1 - EconomicValue = 150 (not sellable to traders)

keep in mind these are not actually calculated and balanced just something I thought would fit and be balanced

Here are a couple of quick hitters for you...
