They added 45 to the loot stage

 

Loot stage is distinct from game stage. I'm about to come up to day 25. I'll nab those glasses from the cm and wear them for a while - and report back. So far I'm yet to see anything more than radiated.

In case anyone else has this, I ALSO had this problem, except it was a clean save.

Rebooting my machine fixed it. No idea why.

Had it again, My guess: 7d2d now can start without a running Steam client, but will fail when starting a game. After starting Steam my save could load.

 love the mod, and reaaaally appreciate all the time and effort put in to it, but as a fellow victim of this, I would petition, if time permits, a look in to the possibility of toning this down, or setting the real evil @%$#ers behind a GS wall.

 

You mean like it already is? Behemoths don't start until GS 150 on wandering horde, 177 in screamer hordes

Yep, that'll happen. It's cos of the crossplay crap they shoe-horned in.

The player can't be created as that tied to Steam, hence the null reference error.

When we reach the end of the lab, can we consider this mod is ended ? or is there another challenge ? we reached the end game way before technologie and we played at nomad difficulty. It wasn't really hard to win. Maybe some true boss zombie with 40k life , hugh speed etc... are needed. We held every day 7 without serious trouble. We won without end game stuff like laser gun rifle and so on. 

 

I think it's too bad to win without the need of the best tools / weapon.

I planted some apple trees, and after some days they cannot be harvested anymore. They have 0/40 HP and cannot be destroyed. In DF 19 this never happened.

You played on nomad. What do you expect? That's easy mode for this mod.

There's literally a succubus with like 7.5k hp that flies and throws fireballs at you, an incubus with 10k hp and a demonic behemoth with 50k hp, all of which NEED a laser weapon to disable the regen.

So that's on you.

Old bug from A18 and A19 that happens if you use the same seed/game name on a map.

Ok. Lets see if you can do it again on insane diff. Imagine playing on a rookie diff, then claiming you "ended" the mod without endgame stuff.

Ok, then which difficulty would you recommend ? also, what would be the end game of this mod ? Killing the lab maybe ?

[Falaffel]

Any idea to avoid / repair that?

Probably unrelated to the mod itself, but power went out while I was playing, booted the game up and my previous game reverted back to being a brand new game. I was level 168 and had cleared the lab, was in the process of creating bunkers out of all the traders. I don't even know how that @%$# works, since it saves every 5 mins. Either way, has completely killed any desire to continue playing until DF A20 is finished, then maybe I'll try again.

The lab is just to prepare you for dealing with demons. If you can survive a horde night when it starts throwing proper demons at you, like the incubus, succubus and demonic behemoth, then you're done.

Back up saves that matter, clear out your data as per TFP's recommendation for A20, put the saves back you care about, then play (and you'll probably need a new DF save)

That's just how 7DTD works. It's always saving. If your power goes out, RIP your save.

Hello.... this is probably really stupid, but the mod disappeared from mine and my wife's 7D2D mod launcher. We haven't played in awhile, so we're not sure if something went wonky with updates or something, but we really loved this mod and were wondering if we messed something up somehow?

[KhaineGB]

DF isn't out for A20 officially, which means it's not on the launcher.

For the A19 version, it might just be gitlab playing silly @%$#s.

The mod launcher wasn't working for -any- mods I tried to dl since 19.5+, (haven't tried it since) so might be related to that.

Sadface. Thank you for the answer!

[KhaineGB]

Just manually install. It's not hard

This could just be my odd luck, but using the ratchet, impact driver, and laser tool, I get next to no batteries and engines ever, but with the most basic wrench, I get 1 to 2 on nearly every vehicle. Not sure if that's a setting that's bugged or what, just figured I'd point it out.

Funny you should say that - I've been experiencing the similar (but didn't know about the basic wrench). I thought the drop rates were nerfed - I ended up using the silver I'd found to make engines eventually as I'd had just 1 engine out of 40 or so vehicles. Just tried the standard wrench and 4 batteries / 1 engine out of 6 vehicles.

Just a quick note, I haven't been able to get sap from any trees, no matter the size, whether I'm doing right or left click, no matter the distance from the tree.  Not game breaking, but damn if I don't miss my steady supply of Megacrush.
