Nav gets occasional updates by Will to fix things or add POIs, so it will be somewhat different in 1.0.


We should have pregen maps on console and they will be made using the improved RWG.

This FSR 3 port to Unity I used is 3.0 and it does not have frame generation ported. It basically works, but there is blurring on certain types of renderer objects like particles using cutout. I may not have much time left to make changes to it, so it may be off in all the presets, but manually enabled using the AA setting.

DLSS isn't going to help your CPU bottleneck. Though they have started working on FSR3.

Edit: Also note that there is a lot of optimization going into the next release. You might be aware of that if you read up on some of the details.

If you want industrial amounts then you need to build a proper industrial factory. Make more dew collectors or find a mod that makes them produce more bottles each.

Being able to easily produce duct tape and such in the quantities you want trivialize the game and are part of the reason empty jars were removed.

The game is primarily designed for 8-player co-op. Unlike Ark or Rust which are designed for 60-100 players per server.

Most people are playing co-op with friends in private servers or are playing single player.

As mentioned already, we are also kind of in an activity lull that naturally occurs during this time of year, and additionally during this phase of development where a new build is just around the corner.

Yes. Mods don't affect achievements. Only enabling cheats/creative/debug mode will prevent you from getting achievements, and even then they only disable it in the session you use them; if you do your business then disable them and reload into your save you can gain achievement progress again.

Honestly, this game was really fun before some of the big changes, but Q4 2025 before they even work on the story is enough to make me think of getting a refund on this game.
They already fixed that exploit.

The problem is there have been many great ideas of opti...

Used to be able to do this. The containers required for the process were removed. Water is already too easy to get.

This is what usually happens when you don't clean out old data before starting a new Alpha.

Moving to the correct forum section. Read the Pinned threads for assistance.

Moving to the correct section. Start with the Pinned troubleshooting threads, and if you still have an issue, read the thread on how to report an issue and follow the instructions.

This is one of those things where adding options for too many features just clutters up the options and makes a mess of things. You can adjust this in your own xml files quite easily, and there are a number of mods regarding this that you can simply install as well.

This is a case where the developer fully supporting modding of the game is greatly for your benefit.

Steam workshop isn't better mod support, it's worse mod support. :conwayheadscratch:

The screenshots in the store are from in game; But they're for sure staged. Just like any good photography, The time, The place, The weather, The angle of viewing, What is around you, The position of the sun in the sky relative to everything, the current fog level, the current graphics settings, and more; It all comes together sometimes to make a perfect screenshot. Not every sunrise IRL is amazingly beautiful....But the ones that are, Simply put, are 'Wow.' worthy. There's a lot more that goes into taking a beautiful picture than you might think.

The screenshots in the store are the same- Staged, right place, right time, maxed out resolution for that one shot; God rays are present in game for example, but not visible 100% of the time; they only show up in certain weather conditions/locations/etc

Here's a few user generated screenies from quite awhile back (2020? Mebbe a lil earlier) that demonstrate some god rays/moments of beauty.

Perhaps, I am misinformed. Is Bloodlines not a 3rd party developed game with licenced 7d2d assets?

You are only misinformed on the name. :). Otherwise you are correct: It is being developed by Illogika.

In 1.0, RWG will more successfully make cities/towns, so there are more of the bigger ones.

Possibly. Event Types: None, Basic, Advanced, Insane, You Will Regret This.

Should be a mix of medium and high. It does render lower and upsample like many console games do.


I did get FSR 3 rendering working a few days ago on PC and looks good other than a few minor blur issues, but it has not been tested on Mac/Linux or console yet.

We will be trying to avoid that as much as technically possible. Hopefully a save will at least partially load by converting the data we can.
