Comment it out or delete it. I already put hornets back in the mod with their own model.

[Trackerman]

First startup game??

 

Hi there i was wondering how long it does take for the first startup. It was mentioned that it could take some time but i was at 45 minutes and aborted, second time again now i am at 3 time and will let it run for ??? we will see ^_^ Does it take realy this long or do i have a problem ...

[KhaineGB]

Just keeping folks updated on how the mod is developing.

 

Right now I've been learning to use Mechanim in Unity. This is a good thing as it means I can do more natural transitions between animations for the various custom zombies I've put into the mod. The bad thing about it... is it means I have to re-do ALL the zombies... so the frostbitten worker, lab zombies, behemoths, hornets, etc.

 

It should make it look a lot better though.

[gpcstargate]

@ KhaineGB

 

Good day Sir: Just wanted to say Hi and Hope all is well.

 

I will sure be glad when A17 comes out, so we all can update our Games and I can start Playing Again.

Always enjoyed your mod and can't wait to start again ..

Have tried Ravenhearst 4.3 … But having a major issue with No traders or outpost. Gone thru 5 cities .. found only 1 overrun outpost. TO Be Honest .. even went Airborne.

AND I Can See You did a lot of work on Ravenhearst .. I see a bunch of stuff you have done

 

Just Started WW 5.3 .. not bad, but it is missing the things I like that you do and Jax's does. I guess I can't have everything, bummer .. lol

 

Anyway, Just waiting on A17 .. Like everyone else. Have Fun and Enjoy … the Old Gamer ..

Edited September 5, 2018 by gpcstargate (see edit history)

[KhaineGB]

Heya Old Gamer! Hope you're doing well

 

I've been playing RH4.3 a little bit myself. Helped out with some of the models and animations on that one. I find it kinda fun when I want a bit more of a challenge. I helped out a little on War of the Walkers 5.3 as well... helped fix a bug and did some models and animation for Dwall.

 

And now I'm re-doing pretty much ALL of my zombies for this mod. It's a pain, but the results are a lot better.

[narimbur]

hi, I just give your mod a try. What I'm really miss in the HUD is the time and depth...

[KhaineGB]

Depth wasn't a vanilla option.

 

Time not being there is part of the mod.

[narimbur]

are vanishing backpacks after death part of the mod?

[KhaineGB]

Nope. Well, not intentionally anyways.

 

I know that's a bug that can just happen though. I've had it in Vanilla, WotW and Ravenhearst. Usually means it sank into the ground or fell off the world.

[KhaineGB]

V1.8.3-B is on GitHub and the launcher! Have fun!

 

• All zombies updated from Legacy animation to Mecanim.
  
• Fixed a few "disappearing zombie" issues. May need to revisit this later.
  
• Added a couple of new bosses for horde nights.
  
• Gamestages edited so folks will get behemoths earlier (starts at GS 1000).
  
• Snowberry seeds added to loot lists.
  
• Fire zombies added. Only spawn in high gamestage hordes and the radiation biome (uses feral rad loot lists).

No restart needed for this, so feel free to just continue with your saves. The hornet hasn't been converted to Mecanim yet because I know that's going to take a lot of work.

[narimbur]

I didn't have that in A16. In this case the green backpack was on the map, I mad a mark on the map for safety and later on the backpack was vanished, also the green mark on the map. Normally you have the mark, but you can't find it, now both was vanished.

[KhaineGB]

Honest answer? No idea. I haven't changed the player entity, or the player dropped backpack.

 

But I've totally had what you described in A16, earlier alpha's and other mods. Doesn't happen as often in A16 though.

[OverKot]

Updated to the latest version via launcher. My level is 170. And now I go endless hordes of radioactive zombies. All hours. Is this a bug?

[CedarWoodSwamp]

Just had the same bug... Never seen so many Rad Zeds

Love your mod Khaine Hope it's an easy fix

[OverKot]

Started a new game. On the third day has come about 40 radioactive zombies. And endless Horde of normal zombies. Can you please fix this? To survive with this amount of zombies is unreal.

[KhaineGB]

Yes, it was a bug.

 

Sooooooooo... I was testing out what the max zombies I could spawn at once was. I forgot I left that code in and turned on, then pushed the patch.

 

I just pushed a hotfix to github to fix it. So... whoops! Sorry folks.

 

Also I'm going through the new tree's and wheat right now. Apparently speedtree does NOT play nice with macOS.

[gpcstargate]

@ KhaineGB

 

Sure Glad I waited on uploading game for this bug.

(always give them a couple days for other players to Test them for me .. lol)

 

I thought reinstalling this weekend just for Fun until A17 drops and then will uninstall all 7D2D Games at that time or after Mods Updated.

Doing good for now .. just getting old, LOL … the Old Gamer ..

[KhaineGB]

Well at least that specific bug is now fixed.

 

Still working on fixing up the tree's for our macOS players. 2 done + the wheat. Will finish the others tomorrow.

[Dorf]

Is there an easy way to cut hornets out of the code? Not a fan of flyers spawning all over the place which are bugged silent half the time and absolute earrape the other.

[Erik Louden]

@KhaineGB

 

"All zombies updated from Legacy animation to Mecanim."

 

What does this mean/do?

[KhaineGB]

Open entitygroups, search for "hornet" and delete any references. Then be mocked for making it easier (I'm gonna lower the sound when I re-do the animation of the hornets)

 

@KhaineGB

 

"All zombies updated from Legacy animation to Mecanim."

 

What does this mean/do?

 

I'm not sure how to explain it other than "It means what it says."

 

In Unity, there's 2 animation systems - Legacy and Mecanim. Legacy is a little "jerky" for lack of a better term and very limited in 7DTD terms in what modders can do it with it.

 

Mecanim is more complicated to use, but a LOT more flexible. So once SDX has the animations hooked up, I can add a ton of animations to zombies.

 

The overall result is animation should be a lot smoother for the end user for things like the hornets, behemoths, etc.

[KhaineGB]

Small hotfix for macOS users. Huge thanks to narimbur for being a tester on this!

 

There is now a zip file included in the client download of the mod, simply called macOS Tree Patch. Unzip this and place it in Mods/SDX/Resources. Overwrite the existing files when prompted.

 

This will replace the speedtree models for Apple, Orange, Banana and Coconut trees, plus the wheat. It resolves issues with them rendering invisible or a magenta colour.

 

You do not need to use these files if you have no issues with the tree's. It's presented as an option.

[Ironstorm44]

Lock picks

 

Are lockpicks broken in the current build? I’ve been trying to use them but they don’t seem to be working.
