Ravenhearst Mod

[slicksister]

excellent howto guide for the mod launcher sinda!

 

The only thing I'd change is the last line in the image,

"allow the mod launcher to auto update when used"

should be

"allow the mod launcher to auto update when starting the mod from steam"

 

otherwise, it's absolutely clear!

Does anyone know if since the update Crack a Books have been removed? We have been to a few cities and in the previous versions found them in a strip mall area. Currently we have not found any for days.

[Azureae]

Are Night Vision Goggles purposely broken in this mod? These weren't a thing when I last played this game in Vanilla mode

They definately still exist. Just not in every city.

Another question to add to that one;

Do we need Calipers do make bullets? We have the station, but according to the official wiki, the Calipers were removed in v16. Was it kept for the mod? If so, I assume it's a very rare find/trader buy?

Thanks!

Can confirm calipers can be looted. Just found a pair today. I found it in one of the New York style mixed shop and apartment blocks with the cab in the back and the ladders on the front. I only realized I got them when I was on my way home, so I don't know which container had them. I'm sure they were no zombie drop though.

Ironically I found a crack a book about 10 minutes later in a city north of my location. Fairly large in size and on the corner of a block on the edge of town. Early on I found a small strip mall in the town we’re working from but have not located another yet. Unfortunately it takes an i game day or more and inventory fills fast so have not viewed every building in the cities yet. I want to fire up a truck so I can use it to haul loot from the longer runs.

 

We do need to find more schematics now because of doing the high end quests. Still not enough to build mini bikes even though we have the materials so I’m continuing my city search’s. I am loving these massive cities though. Seldom have to leave because there’s so much available.

YES .. Forget the Wiki for Mods like this .. first off ... Mods change so much.

 

You Need at least 2 Calipers and a couple Tool & Die Sets

 

Advanced Workstation .. uses 1 Caliper and 1 Chisel

Ammunition Workstation .. uses 1 Caliber and 1 Tool & Die Set

Advanced Forge .. uses 1 Tool & Die Set and 1 blank mold (that you make)

Blacksmith Station .. uses 1 smithing hammer and 1 blank mold

 

SO far that is all I have made .... but also looking for Calipers .. Bought _ Tool & Die sets at Trader for like 4700.00 I think

 

PS: Nightvision goggles are a thing .. depending on there level is how good they are, but they don't work well with fog ... they are still in game.

i'm the janky type who moves 1 set of calipers around the entire room.

 

i also don't have a crowbar.

 

finding on our map lots of the smaller stores, both sizes of books, guns and tools.

For loot there used to be these Halipads in 2.2, just loved them, however i can't seem to find them now, not sure if Jax removed them, since i remember they only worked in SP.

[mhwaso]

hi again,,sry to ask more

***iam stuck at rifle class as i can not find bolt rifle but i wonder how to get one as 99% of weapons i find are vanilla,,i never find scope or silencer

just 1 boomstick shotgun,2 sniper rifle ,1 m25 sniper,1 galil,1 desert eagle and all very bad quality except boomstick<iam now level 55>

**2nd wrench cars,,it seems finding engine or battery from cars is very very low chance but all cars are same or they are different?

the only battery i get was from those bikes and nothing from other cars....

*last thing rifle skill are useless or what?

it contain crafting time<i craft nothing>..crafting quality <same>..repair time <useless>..repair amount<?>..repair quality lose<useless>

am i right or wrong?

sry iam asking too much but i begin to like the mod and i opened 2 more classes so i need to maximize every thing i do while playing

thanks

Yeah I think they were in 3.0 but can’t recall. Not sure if it’s in 3.1.2 but it’s a cool idea although you’re right about not working in multiplayer. It does kinda cheese the game but I like having options.

Some of the weapons required for the class quest chain are loot only and sometimes quite rare. I started as blunt class and I'm glad I kept one early found tire iron that I had no idea would be a key item later. I never found another one. I'm pretty sure the bolt rifle you're mentioning could be the rifle pendant to this.

 

Don't worry about the "quality" of the special weapons. It's better to hold on to your one single special weapon even if it's low end. To count for the quest, you need to kill zombies while holding the weapon. So pummeling a Z with a spiked club til they drop to the floor and then headshot them with your quest weapon to finish them off - fair game. Roaming horde? Throw a molotov, a pipe bomb and quickly switch to quest weapon - fair game.

 

Batteries are very rare for me as well. I'd need one to produce an electric charge, but I'm not too worried, since I only obtained a single beaker so far and all the random chemistry stations are broken (in my seed? In this mod?). I found two batteries from vanilla cars. I wrenched two parking garages and pretty much all of the vanilla cars in my home town in the two lootable stages.

 

I realize that cars respawn in this game. So maybe that was introduced to give you a proper chance again and again to find the needed parts? I keep wrenching!

 

I'm trying to play through as a challenge. To see how far I get. I must say that some of the mod's changes, that I worried about most in the beginning, turn out to be fun actually. I find it less frustrating than I thought it would be. Instead I was so thrilled when I found a 244 steel pick in a construction site box.

 

You seem to be very lucky with knowledge points! I'm about the same level now and I only collected 144 knowledge points so far (and another maybe 60 in books I'm yet undecided about scrapping or reading). 2 more classes! Very good!

But i begin 3 times and go out only to explore because the last wipe i dont find any important build ( Crack a Book, working, etc), in almost 6 cities, so i try it, if my current play was bug or something but i can confirm the spawn of those buildings its too low really really too low, and i think its because de dinner tower, because in my last try, i found two cities without that building and in that two cities i found the crack a book building and a lot of shotgun messias of all sizes its really strange, if anyone can confirm my theory?

Hello there, is it possible to increase the view distance for clients on the server? I host my own server, there a some people with older hardware, for them its really nice with that distance limiter. I have a GTX 1080 TI installed, is it possible to increase the distance by client? I dont mean the normal Settings of the Game, there i have the max Distance activated. As example:

 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]24327[/ATTACH]

 

Same Settings on another Mod:

 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]24328[/ATTACH]

 

Thank you in advance and sorry for my english.

[sinda]

the view distance is limited for good reason, it would likely destroy gameplay, especially on a server.

tbh i'm not sure the game itself could even handle it, or would look shoddy

 

your view distance isn't just sight, it's the number of chunks loaded around the player, per player

I disagree. Other mods have a higher limitation and it works fine. And my Server is not a Nitrado Server, it is a root Server with 196 GB Ram. But that is not, what i have asked. I want do increase the distance by client. Or increase the chunks. Maybe it is not possible, but because of that, i ask^^

Ah! A nice seed and a quick respawn, I can see that being helpful. Still lucky though. I found bookstores myself, now if the bookshelves only contained books! Hahaha. I found a crack-a-book tower and I'm glad I activated loot respawn too. It's at 30 days for me and I am planning on revisiting said tower. Most of my knowledge points are still from scrapping cook books but hey, I find a lot of food too in the kitchens, so they are not bad.

 

I think that book tower was the place I got my steel pick from. That thing has made a huge difference. I was able to dig out an underground base, accumulate resources and gain levels. All because of one lucky tool find, amazing.

 

Btw. I'm curious about which classes you picked. You started with rifles, right? I started with blunt weapons and I'm considering farmer as my second one. I'd really love to be able to start farming crops properly.

Awesome mod

 

Just started to play this mod and i have to say its pretty awesome. I am also looking for some seed names.

SleekHunting2 is a fantastic seed. Towns on top of towns, and I haven't run into any large crappy biomes

[xenten]

Hi all, and thanks Jax, this mod is amazing!

 

Quick question, not sure if this has been asked/answered yet - I completed the corporate secrets quest and it cancelled my class quest line. Is it possible to get class questlines back?

 

Thanks!
