7 days to die mod valmod download

This is a mod KhaineGB originally created to fix a few “issues” himself, his wife and some friends felt the game had. Turns out he really enjoy modding so he has expanded on it quite a bit. The intent is to drag out the early game, so it will take you longer than usual to get to Iron and Steel. He has also tried to inject a little realism by locking away quite a few recipes behind perks, since most normal folks wouldn’t know how to do/make those things.

Also, he started playing in Alpha 8, so he wanted to try and bring back a few things from that era. Hub city, sharp rocks and sticks are pretty good examples, and he want to try and incorporate more features from that era of gameplay. He will also be trying to add in new zombies/enemies to make the “end game” more difficult.

Permission will never be granted to use items in the “not available for use” list due to EULA’s, so please don’t ask! All of them are available on the Unity store and he is happy to provide links to the various store items if people want them (and if they are still available). Any mods found using those assets will be repoted to the moderators. You have been warned.

Compatibility

Darkness Falls is a total overhaul mod, which means KhaineGb has changed large amounts of the XML files on a permanent basis. Not all modlets will be compatible, therefore I thought it might be a good idea to start a list of ones that do work.

Using mods not on this list means he can not offer you support.

Confirmed Working

DO NOT INSTALL COMPO PACK. It is already included, has been edited so quests work more reliably and better balance for loot/zombies.

DO NOT USE NITROGEN. It does not obey biome restrictions KhaineGB has put in place for some POI’s.

Known Issues

• Animals have some issues that need to be investigated.
• Food/Water don’t display correctly. Anything over 100 doesn’t seem to work, so bear that in mind.

Changelog

DF V3.2A is up. Changes as follows.

• Coilshotgun can no longer be sold (same as other coilguns)
• Fixed the Quicker Crafting book not actually levelling Quicker Crafting.
• Fixed Mining Action skill not actually letting rare ores drop at 91+.
• Fixed display on Nerdy Glasses regarding craft time.
• Fixed a bug with tame wolf attacking AI.
• Slightly lowered cement craft time as it was higher than intended.
• Slightly lowered forged iron craft time as it was higher than intended.
• Slightly lowered iron dart craft time as it was higher than intended.
• Slightly lowered bullet tip craft time as it was higher than intended.
• Slightly lowered both arrowhead craft times as they were higher than intended.
• Increased iron bar craft time as it was lower than intended.
• Fixed a bug with the prefab editor toolbelt (though it may not be useable).
• May have possibly fixed a bug with the baseball bat and wooden club damage.
• Added new menu music.
• POTENTIAL fix for the “free bellows in forges” added.
• Added a failsafe to properly remove Anemia 4 on player death.

NO RESTART NEEDED!

Installation Instructions (If you don’t use the mod launcher)

Make a copy of your 7 Days to Die folder first!

Download the zip file at the link above. Unzip the 7DaysToDie_Data, Data and Mods folder to your 7 Days to Die folder and overwrite when prompted. The mod uses SDX so all 3 folders (and their contents) are needed or you’ll have problems.

Same for the server files, except in this case it will be 7DaysToDieServer_Data, Data and Mods.

Installation Instructions for macOS Users

Important Note: He does not have a mac. This is a guide he found for Starvation Mod and Ravenhearst, but it also works on War of the Walkers so it should be fine here.

• 1) Uninstall 7dtd. Open Finder, from taskbar choose Go -> Home. Open Library -> Application Support -> Steam -> steamapps -> common. Delete 7 Days to Die folder. Reinstall 7 Days to Die.
• 2) Unzip downloaded mod. Open unzipped folder. You should see 3 folders: 7DaysToDie_Data, Data, and Mods. I will be referring to this as a “home screen”.
• 3) Open Steam. In your games Library, right-click 7 Days to Die and choose Properties from the drop-down menu. Choose the LOCAL FILES tab and choose BROWSE LOCAL FILES.
• 4) Copy & paste (do not drag-and-drop) the Mods folder to this location.
• 5) Open 7DaysToDie_Data -> Managed.
• 6) Right-click 7DaysToDie.app and choose Show Package Contents. Here you should see 2 folders: Contents and Data. This will be the other “home screen”.
• 7) Open Contents -> Resources -> Data -> Managed.
• 8) Copy & paste (do not drag-and-drop) the .dll files into this location. Mac OSX will ask if you want to keep both or replace. Choose replace.
• 9) Navigate back to each home screen.
• 10) Drag-and-drop the 7DaysToDie_Data and Mods folders into this location.
• 11) Open the Data folders in each location. You will see there are Config, Prefabs, and UMATextures folders in each.
• 12) For each of these three folders, open up its corresponding folder so you can see the contents. Drag-and-drop the mod’s contents into its respective folder. For duplicate files, mac OSX will ask if you want to Skip, Stop, or Replace. Check the “Apply to All” checkbox, then choose Replace.
• 13) Start 7 Days to Die and enjoy the mod!(edited)
