If by modding you mean editing the xml files to change values and settings then there are two main ways to do this. The first is the most simple method and is still the same as it always has been. You open the xml files you want to edit using wordpad or notepad or some similar program and you go through and make changes. You can add or remove ingredients to recipes, create new recipes, change the values on things like spawn rate and spawn numbers, change how long it takes zombies to stand back up after being knocked down, rewards for quests, etc etc.

The second way is more complicated and requires you to learn the formatting for xpath. Xpath is more powerful because it will go through and make all the edits to the xml for you while the game is loading. But there is a learning curve and you have to make sure the formatting is correct.

The benefit of the first is that it is easy to do. The downside is that you should make a backup copy of the original files so you... Read more

Not so much when you consider that TFP has maybe hired some of those modders.

Funniest thing is that someone says to not play on Navezgane map, someone else perfectly explaining why that is, and still the "Official 7 Days to Die Wiki" on fandom.com (article: "Beginners Guide") says to play on Navezgane map as Beginner.

Thanks for explaining the thing with honey. I did not realize that. Learned something :-)

The wiki just hasn't been updated probably. Navezgane used to be perfect for beginners but with recent developments with the magazines, and water, Navezgane is no longer so easy. I'm betting that when they have ti... Read more

Since you are a beginner I highly recommend that you play one of the PREGEN maps rather than Navezgane. Navezgane is a work in progress and it is a much more challenging experience due to distances you must travel and the fact that traders are in more rural settings. The PREGEN world will have your trader right next to an urban area so you will have plenty of places to explore and scavenge for resources.

Most everyone here is envious that you are still in that phase of coming to grips with the game! :)

Alpha 21 provided a lot of polish and definitely new content. As for the twitch integration, my hope is that it will translate into a random event system if they can hook up a manager to it. Many of the events that viewers can trigger are silly and not really appropriate for the main game but there are quite a few that are and TFP (and modders once the system was implemented) could come up with many more that could really increase the illusion of a living world. They have talked casually about adding a random event manager to the code but there is no guarantee that they will. If they do and if it comes out of the work they did for Twitch integration then it will definitely be something that everyone cares about.

No promises about anything happening within the next ten years. ;-)

In the options menu change the bloodmoon to nightly and your days to 30 minutes. Increase your xp to 300% and your block damage to 300%. If you want to skip over the primitive gear, enable the creative menu and start yourself with whatever kit you desire. You can also set supply drops to daily.

As soon as you get a bloodmoon that lasts all night at 30 minute days, change the setting to 40 minute days, and then again to 60 minute days as your bloodmoons start to last the whole night.

Challenges you can set for yourself are:

No Quests. You can shop at the trader but not quest.
No POI bases. You must build your base from scratch.

Plenty of topics PINNED in the correct forum section. You just need to go there first instead of posting in General Discussion.

Moving your thread so you might find it by checking your post history.

The Old thread ran out of room at the top for the images. Started a new one, hopefully with enough reserved space for all the new art they keep showing off. Just added the gore images from yesterday's post.
