7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

Unfortunately a voxel engine is poorly suited for rails. The rails wouldn't all be straight - you'd want turns and inclines as well. In order to not look ridiculous, those turns and inclines would need to be gentle, over a long distance, which doesn't line up with the rest of a voxel world split into cubic meter increments.

This is a clear reminder to report posts you think are trolling or fanboying instead of responding.
This is a clear reminder violations of the Steam Discussion forum rules, or this specific Game's forums rules will not be tolerated.

Thank you.

To those who do the right thing reporting such posts instead of interacting or providing vigilante justice commentary I would like to offer my thanks.

Together we can make this a better place for all to interact as a community.

You need to get their SteamID in ID64 format, the name is not correct for the config file.
The easiest way is to indirectly exercise the public Steam API by using 3rd party sites to do the lookup for you. (Enhanced Steam Browser Addon also displays the numeric SteamID64)

It also depends on what device and the drivers you use for that audio device.
I keep voice chat disabled for the same reason. On some systems, the interaction is performance detrimental. Most commonly when the audio device is USB based, but not exclusively. Just depends on how the driver responds.

That's..Very strange then, Because me and my friends were having trouble using a number of commands prior to including them within the file, despite all being admin w/ level 0 permission.. Guess thats just some oddity we ran into then, or maybe a relic from an older versio... Read more

I think debug mode is not listed within the admin permissions file by default, and as such it wont let you use it?



Your serveradmin.xml should look similar to this, Some of the commands above are ones i had to manually add to the file (Namely SE, ST, DM, TP, and Tele, i think) If they are NOT within this file, the command is not usable.

If you don't have access to the file you should be able to add commands in game by using the cp add command, in this case "cp add debugmenu 0"

Originally posted by GhostGaming: anyone know how to fix this spamming the console with, "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object"???

Probably have to go back to A15 when that worked.

The fake miss made sense at the time. Not anymore when arrows veer sometimes, drop over time, and have flight characteristics. All the things that add to legitimate misses that were not possible or happening when it was put in.

Originally posted by akroma.chan: It's not a bug... It's a feature.
Some versions before they decided bow was op because it couldn't miss when aimed correctly, so they introduced a rng when shooting making the arrow "deviate" from it trajectory.
It's crappy, it could have been set by several different changes, they choose this way and will probably never change (since MM don't seem to even play his game, or understand how we play it).
I died or almost died a few times because of this "oups you arrow didn't hit the dog at 50cm from you but hit the rock behind it". It is frustrating but, well, it's not broken.

Just a correction:
In Alpha 14.3 a chance to miss was added that I lovingly call "fake miss" because at th... Read more

When you launch the game from steam library, it asks if you want to show the game launcher

Start the launcher, not the game. Switch to the tools tab

You can now open game folder or open savegame folder directly, no searching through file explorer or using search box to find them

No, the ability to get achievements remains intact for that world.
As long as cheats are disabled when you actively try for the achievement, having previously enabled them does not seem to cause an issue.

Example a quick way to get the Player Killing achievements without killing another human.
Note: I can personally verify this works.
New game with cheats disabled.
F1 (to open console)
dm
cm
F1 (to close console)
U (open cheat menu)
Search for pipe bombs
Fill Belt with pipe bombs
Close cheat menu
press H
press space to fly up above the ground out of reachable distance for anything on ground.
Face a little bit in front and toward the ground of current position.
F6 (to open spawn menu)
Click the Spawn 25 box.
Press banditmelee twice
F6/ESC (to Close spawn menu)

Playstyle Attacking It seems there has been an increasing amount of attacking those whom would play with different settings, values, modifications than default.

This needs to stop. These forums are not here just for the default settings and/or harder. They are here for everyone who enjoys the game in any way they choose to play.

The Fun Pimps themselves have said many times that while they are designing the game how they want it to be played, but they also want the user to be able to have the customized experience the user would like.

Going forward, threads request help customizing the experience toward a player's liking or offering suggestions for such should not be met with attacks, comments of how they should play another game, comments they should just enable cheats, etc, etc. Those who've decided to make such comments will have their ability to interact with the community restricted.

Each time such a thread is posted a person makes a c... Read more

I also would support and buy another copy if released on GOG. (not that what I think matters to anyone but me and the voices in my head).

Depends on the button used to take the screenshot.

Game (F9) - Steam Client > Games Library > 7 Days To Die > Right-Click > Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files.
This will take you to a path of
\SteamApps\common\7 Days To Die

Steam Overlay (F12) - Steam Client > View > Screenshots > 7 Days To Die > Click one of the pictures > Click Show on disk
This will take you to a path of (note: I already used your SteamID to look up the correct value for the your userid one below):
\userdata\\760\remote\251570\screenshots

Your specific path:
\userdata\43120317\760\remote\251570\screenshots

My Path:

Next you might ask how to check the value of AccountID1.
The information is fully public, every Steam account has certain always public info, and Valve has an API published to look it up.

Originally posted by ISac: but why they dont fix this ??

Because they could spend time building new code and new stuff, or making sure everything is backward compatible like this was a final released product. Which would you prefer during an Alpha (hint if all the time is spent fixing a few bugs and keeping everything backward compatible that means fewer changes usually and fewer new features). They've said many times eventually that will be a focus but for now major updates mean a restart (or roll-back/opt-in) to an old version but never load saves between different major versions.
