• The Second is a Small Wound. When you receive enough damage to get a Small Wound you will also get a Pain Buff that can be cured with a Pain Killer. To Heal the Small Wound you need to use a Bandage on it. After some time the bandage will get dirty and need reapplied. Do all of this successfully and your small wound will heal into Bruised. Fail to keep the wound clean or receive to much more damage from attackers and it will progress to a Wound.
  

• The Third is a Wound. When you receive enough damage to get a Wound you will also get a Sprained Leg Buff that can be cured with a Splint. To Heal the Wound you need to use a First Aid Bandage on it. After some time the First Aid Bandage will get dirty and need reapplied.

After some time the Sanitized Bandage will get dirty and need reapplied. Do all of this successfully and your Infected Wound will heal into a Sever Wound. Fail to keep the wound clean and you will die.
  

Zombie Bites

 

Getting bitten and not caring for it is the only way to get the Z Virus. Infected can only Bite you if they Grab (stun) you. Once you receive a Bite you will also get a Bleed that can be healed as normal. To remove the Bite you must cook a Metal/Steel Pipe in the Campfire/Burn Barrel and Cauterize the Bite with it. You have 24 game hours to do this before you catch the Z Virus. After you Cauterize the Bite you will have a Bite Wound that you will need to treat with a Bandage.

Short Mod Launcher Guide:

• 1) Click on Advanced
  
• 2) Click on Spider
  
• 3) For the Destination Folder, you can click on the folder to pick where the mod will be installed at. By default, it's C:\7D2D\
  
• 4) Click on True Survival SDX

Finally, last but not least.... Additional Info. until it can be merged into main post.

 

There is a comprehensive dedicated server installation guide available here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ofhxt7k6d4qtsv1/Guide_for_Dedicated_server_install.rtf?dl=0

Many thanks to Vastarakki from the True Survival team for this write up!

 

More credit where credit is due:

 

Also thanks to Estygo for developing a spreadsheet that helped me convert and normalize all the entries in the loot tables (and soon other tables) to equal 100% so it was easy to see the actual drop percentage of each item.

 

Thanks also to Val of Valmod for use of a few of his icons.

 

And also thanks to Crater Creator for allowing the use of some of his loot change ideas in this mod.

 

Finally, thanks to all the users who post great ideas and find all the bugs that manage to creep into every version update. We love you guys!

[icymage84]

Today apparently, but careful when you install it, it used me as a punching bag last night lol.

 

Got it to run today, omg, you guys are in for a treat. The rwg edits in the mod are insane, wait till you see this shizzle. When spider posts later today should be detailed instructions on how to get it to work. Looking forward to playin with some of you in mp.

[xyth]

Looking forward to it. Glad you sorted out the install.

[wolverine576]

Ive played the starvation mod, it was great, but i liked True survival better, i almost combined them myself, but the amount of work would of taken me a long time....so im very happy to see this mod come to fruit!!!

[xyth]

Did you get the server install working or just to standalone?

[wolverine576]

I had Starvation working on my Dedi

Just the sp/coop for now. Spiders waitin on some help with getting it to work on server.

Thats the problem, were you using the launcher for starvation or did you put the files in yourself using sdx 0.7.0? Im betting you used the launcher. Thats the prob atm, spider doesnt have someone making him a launcher lol.

I got Starvation to work, using thier Launcher, we run a small "spare" parts dedi to host a few games. But if i tried to run the server, without using the launcher it wouldnt load. Once Spider releases the files and how to, ill see what i can learn!

[xyth]

Sergant1000 has a launcher for his mod, not sure if he just reused the starvation one or if he figured out the build. Maybe he would help?

Same. I chatted with Spider about this. Based on my Starvation server install, I found no evidence that the launcher is needed. As far as I could tell the launcher just copies and configures files to the server. Once that's done, the game is started with a shortcut, not the launcher. If all the correct files are manually or batch moved from the SDX build, and the .ini files etc. are configured correctly, I would think it would run. However, without Spiders files, I can't see if this is correct.

The topic for all modding threads is to be helpful either through answering troubleshooting questions, sharing ideas, sharing code, collaborating on problems etc. Any derailment of modding threads by public accusations of wrong doing will result in infractions and eventually banning if it continues.

 

Now back to topic, please.

[Akrux]

Will this mod work for single player games? I am in a remote part of the world. I can download but my ping is horrible for multiplayer games.

 

Also what is the difference between TS and TS SDX?

 

Will this be installable by the 7DtD mod launcher?

[Spider]

@Akrux- It will work for SP, Coop, MP and Servers when its finished. While in testing it will just be on the Official True Survival SDX Server and yes thanks to a few days work by the great and marvelous Sphereii it will be as simple to install and play as any other mod through his wonderful 7D2D Mod Launcher.

 

Its still TS just the newest variation using all the feedback from the players and inspiration from the modding community. The leveling curve is much different then last build and you will should feel like your leveling a little faster at first but it will get harder as you level. SDX really brings two things to TS. First it allows use of new 3d meshes like guns, bats, cars, plants, animals and much more. Second it allows the core game code to be played with so you can have cool new features like Morts Fishing and Farming. Stuff that cant be done with xml's. It is requiring a little over 4g to run the game fyi.

 

Just waiting on my server provider to install some files for me and hopefully I can start it up. But I wouldn't hold your breath for tonight, its never that easy.

[SmooreMC85]

Would using this newest version on a server currently running the previous tsm version break the current game, or can it be installed and not require a restart. A lot of it seems fine but I know funny things happen when we start messing with terrain generation. I like a lot of the changes, looking forward to trying it out when it's ready.

[Spider]

NO this is a different mod and is not compatible with normal True Survival. Just waiting on the Server Tech to install one file correctly(so might take some time) then the server will be up. Whats on the 7D2D Mod Launcher is a Client Pack and will not run the game by itself it will only work on the test server for now.

 

 

If all goes well the new Test Server will be up and running the first test build of True Survival SDX sometime today. I will make a post when its live. The new mod can only be installed and played through the 7D2D Mod Launcher
