[2022] How do I adjust the day/night cycle?

RELXIX_UIMENU_More24HourLengthOptions[minhaskamal.github.io]
This adds the options '5, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300' minutes as 24 Hour Length options in addition to the default '10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120' for those who want really fast or really slow days.
These options are also added as available filter choices in the server browser.

First, undo what you previously did and verify your files.

Second, create a Mods folder in your 7DTD install directory.
EG: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die

Third, extract the zipfile you downloaded.

Fourth, Move the extracted folder into the Mods folder you created in step two.

The final filepath should look like:
D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Mods\RELXIX_UIMENU_More24HourLengthOption

The 'Config' folder and 'Modinfo.xml" should be within the RELXIX folder; If there is a second RELXIX folder within the first, cut the config/modinfo stuff into the first one and delete the second inner copy.


Lastly, a significant and important warning: The game is made so that it becomes more difficult as you progress and gain levels; And is built with 1 hour as the default time scale. Giving yourself more time to do things per ingame day means that the horde night, when it eventually happens, will be that much harder for you to fight against- At a 4 hour day, that means the first horde you encounter will be 4x as hard; Roughly equivalent to a day 28 horde on default timescale.

So.. Make sure you prepare adequately.
