I got my Steam Machine on Monday and installed 7 Days to Die on it and the pop up asking if I wanted to enable discord integration came up when I booted up the game for the first time. Seems like it is still active.

Really blown away with 3.0 !

Hmmm....doesn't the bloodmoon horde pyramid over the trader wall pretty easily? Seems like tall building would continue to be the safer option. I get zombies inside the trader compound from time to time during the daytime just from 3-4 bunching together outside.

V3.0.1 EXP Release

But what would happen if TFP made a mistake and either didn't update the version number or missed to deliver the new third digit of the version number to steam so steam thinks this is the same version? When we don't know where the bug is it makes sense to check even basic assumptions if they...

V3.0.1 EXP Release

steam often does shader-updates as well. Instead of everyone guessing what that update was about and speculating wildy you should ask that admin exactly what version his client has now, which version his server has now. No guessing or assuming please, he should look at the version number on...

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Good points. Though to be fair there is support for mods, it just isn't coming from the developer of the base game, it is the developer of the mod. Because of this mods in active development should be prefered

A setting I desperately NEED for next 3.0 Update!

I would recommend limiting qualities for crafting, even down to max 1. It would make it possible to craft an M60 early, but that M60 would likely be worse than a quality 4 to 6 tactical assault you could loot and likely have upcycled with magnitude bonusses.

Issues with Spectator Mode 3.0v

Hello Big_Willy, I was able to reproduce this behaviour by switching between 1st and 3rd person while inside of the spectator mode. I'll create a internal ticket for this issue, if you got further ways to trigger this behaviour please don't hesitate to add it to this thread. Best, Revi

Bro, yall need to give us a ■■■■ timer already

Genie is out of the bottle on that one at this point. They already have a section for quests and making quest failure more or less forgiving is entirely in line with all the other options in this game. I don't like hand-holding and adding a timer and/or making a distinctive red wall is...

Bro, yall need to give us a ■■■■ timer already

Seems to me that this is akin to wanting an "extra life" in case you might die which the game already provides. I don't see anything wrong with a timer, or a more visible wall for people moving at vehicle speeds but I also don't see anything wrong with "ironman" mode for quests where if you make...

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

I am very sure this is already the case. I have a bedroll down and I can choose to respawn near my death location. It may be possibly that an option prevents this in your case or a server setting

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Not sure how granular we'll go with things like that. There is a very large wish list of stuff folks want to see options for. Not sure what will make it in or not. No. I do not plan on adding boosted stats to armor since they are already on the cusp being too overpowered due to stacking issues...

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Rarely? I would say it is the other way round: The majority of the new sandbox options is not a new feature as well and needed only xml changes to work. And xml does need neither multiplayer sync (because it gets already synced no matter how new it is) nor a server config. It surely needs UI...

An interesting questions here would be: Does turning it off again after 3.0.0 switched it on actually disable discord integration or is the setting broken completely?

meganoth Community Moderator

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Oh, so you have the theory that when more option requests are posted TFP is forced to implement more options? Just like in concress elections where the more people vote and the more people are nominated they have to put more chairs into the congress hall, right? ;)

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Good to know. I realize my case was purely anecdotal so it’s good to get feedback from someone running a server at 8 or fewer people that has experienced it. In my case we all start together, all do the starting tutorial, and the first digging quest so it never has come up.

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

No "current" plans to allow quality crafting of item mods. The idea with these was to make looting a little more exciting. Vehicle mods can be found in workbench, Pass-n-Gas crates, and zombie loot. Drone mods can be found in Mo Power crates around loot stage 150. I'll see if I can work these...

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

Sounds like 4 people to me if the server is adhering to the max supported player count. If 50% really is a lot of people then the problem may very well be a side effect of going beyond what is supported. >shrug< My group is 3 of us on a server and we’ve never once experienced a bug where we...

50% of players on dedicated server can't get jobs/quests

Thank your for your feedback, I'm sorry to hear that your first experience with the game resulted in a bug encounter this bad. The issue you are experiencing sounds like a known issue which usually happens when a player completes a quest from a party members before finishing the Intro quest...

I did. And my question still stands about whether most of the issues he faces is rooted in running 50 slot servers. That is a valid question especially since bug reports are supposed to be made while running vanilla and a 50 person game of 7 Days to Die has 42 toppings poured on top of that...

50% of players on dedicated server can't get jobs/quests

Normally the Intro Buried Supply quest can be started again if failed on the next day. We do have a bug currently around which prevents this under curtain conditions. We are currently working on a fix that the failed intro quest gets offered immediately after failing it to avoid this issue...

Thank you for sharing these logs. The issue is not not your system, it's a known issue possible connected to the new sign tech system that a few players experience. This issue is getting resolved in a future update. It is indeed the same as this thread. I'll be moving your post to duplicates...

Hello Mystik70, thank you for your report. The screenshot you shared allowed me to look at the POI position and it seems like there is a invisible column where players can't place blocks. I'll create an internal ticket to get this POI fixed. Sadly the only thing you can do at this moment is...

Suggestion to Bring Corpse Blocks back

I’m with you brotha! I’ve been advocating for it as an option as well in the developer chat. They’ve never outright said “that’s impossible!” or “never again!” So there’s still a chance— and not just a Floyd Christmas chance either lol. The gore blocks were not really removed due to lag since...

error

It's difficult to tell for sure, but your issue could be relate to a known issue which was reported already. Thread Link I'd be able to tell you for sure after receiving your log. In this case I'd be more interested in your log instead of the server log.

What? That they might need to gather a few rocks and craft a new LCB to pick up their workstations? For most players, a de-synced LCB isn’t going to remove their protection from 39 other random strangers who want to rob them and kick over their sandcastle.

Roland Community Moderator

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

It may desync in exactly the same way but would it desync at all with fewer than 8 players? You’ve got 40 players and if many of them have turrets, drones, claim blocks, vehicles, etc is that not going to strain the limits of the game? I admit my technical knowledge isn’t the best but I do...

Roland Community Moderator

V3.0.0 b259 EXP Update

My question is how many of the listed server issues are directly related to exceeding 8 players and needing to police dozens of strangers who are playing in competition with each other. The devs have priorities that are based on keeping the game stable for its intended use which is primarily...

Mac Unique Graphics Problem

I’m on an Intel iMac (Retina 5k, 27-inch, 2019) and have been experiencing this since before 3.0. It only occurs with the Metal renderer. So as a workaround, you can start the game launcher and select the OpenGL renderer. OpenGL independently has its own problems though, so I’d really like to...

Anyone have an Enemy Tier list?

This is the current list which is subject to change. We are aware players want more ways to choose which enemy types they want in their game so hopefully this sandbox setting will continue to evolve to allow that. For those into modding, these tags are defined in our entityclasses.xml file.

No. We don't have any "named requirements" setup for those AFAIK. We don't have anything for sound, but you could try to compare the CVar _lightlevel as a requirement: <requirement name="CVarCompare" cvar="_lightlevel" operation="LTE" value="65"/>
