Windows Lost items

Hello Btutt16, is there a possibility that someone deleted your player profile? When you go to Play Game -> Continue Game -> Manage Saves Select your world and Save you played on. You will see on the very right which player have a profile in this save. I'd be interested in what your save is...

PS Twitch drop items disappearance

They are working to resolve the issue. I am currently assuming the issue is within the Twitch configuration, or some issue with the authentication for the items that the game client performs. It is an issue that is affecting all platforms, and has been recognized by TFP as a known issue that...

Windows cant destroy anything

Could be a server setting. Really hard to say for sure without any information provided. There is a Pinned thread that instructs you on how to report an issue.

V3.2.0 Stable - b10 Hotfix

Shooting during a job without silencers can attract screamers who can call a horde if they see you and scream. So there definitely already is that dynamic in the game. I've been in the middle of clear jobs where so many zombies pour in it is impossible to tell which ones are the red dots and...

GrimlocK - World Creation Thread

As Riamus alluded, uploaded mods are implemented as Resources, which are a little different than forum threads. Hence threads aren't generally moved directly to Released Mods; rather, a discussion thread is generated automatically if and when you submit a finished mod. I see no problem with this...

Drone falling to the world's lower limit

Thanks for the clarification! I thought so, but you never know so I wanted to be sure :) Hm. So, it seems the one with the problems is the one that also has networking issues? I'll see if I can reproduce some drone weirdness with a bad network

V3.2.0 Stable - b10 Hotfix

Now would those safer and unsafer areas be available and useful in non-PvP games too? Yes, they would, which is exactly my point. In some PvE and PvP games cities or your starting village are automatically safe areas, in some games you make them slowly into safe areas. The only difference is in...

V3.2.0 Stable - b10 Hotfix

Now you’re finally getting what this game is and why particular systems and features are chosen that might run contrary to a game focused on PvP. Another value to grind that affects how NPCs and factions respond to me is exactly what I want. That’s way better than psycho randoms online waiting...

V3.2.0 Stable - b10 Hotfix

What does reputation offer in PvP? Other players definitely won't react according to your reputation. Even in a PvP game reputation would only be another progression to grind whether it would be single players or a group. Grouping up in games makes preodiminantly sense for massively...

Beaten horse but i miss old cloths now

As I said, the sandbox options are all on/off toggles or magnitude sliders. There aren't any that switch between two completely different systems of play. For example, there is no sandbox option to change the hydration system from jars of drinks into a dedicated canteen inventory slot that gets...

Drone falling to the world's lower limit

"Administrator converts their own drone into an item to store it" Hi Sharon, what did you mean by this one? The admin converted their own drone into an item? How did that help the other player? How did you convert it?

Beaten horse but i miss old cloths now

When looking at the toggles for the current sandbox options I don't see how having one clothing system vs another entirely different system can work. The options remove things but they don't remove and replace with some other version especially when it involves one set of assets and then an...

They could also add a reputation value in addition to the current job tier score. The reputation value would only progress when you do jobs for that trader. There’s a number of interesting things you could do with that separate reputation score especially related to a story.

I guess if you see taking off the puffer coat to put on the poncho when crossing a border as meaningful, then the old system is better. After I swapped puffers for ponchos several dozen times I didn’t miss it when it went. I like the new system where you slot in components and never have to swap...

This is new to me, too. :) Many people know they can opt into an Experimental build in Steam to automatically download and play it. This program, which runs in parallel to Experimental builds, is more selective*. Applicants for the Playtest Squad are selected to participate in individual...

Well for that point, the new system beats the old system for environmental survival. The three tiers of underclothing plus the armor insulation liners are great for that. Right now I am perfectly fine in the desert-- but just recently by upgrading my underclothing. I still freeze in the snow and...

Hmm. Assuming you're not already signed in, this should take you to a log in page where you log into or create a Behaviour Interactive account. The page loads for me in Firefox (Windows), Firefox (macOS), Edge (Windows), Safari (macOS), and Safari (iOS). Maybe try a different browser?

Why is big multiplayer not supported?

Same people will complain the game isn't PvP when they can't find a way, and then throw a fit when the dev response is that they aren't making a PvP game. Just for clarity, at most the PvP population of the games players was maybe 3%. You can imagine why most developers won't spend resources on...

Watcher Cosmetic suddenly missing

Someone inside TFP will be working on it, searching for it, programming and testing the fix. Then testers will check whether the fix works. Then it will be added to a minor version that is to come out maybe in a few days, maybe in weeks. Only when that minor version is actually getting released...

Yeah, the devs should push the sound path button. Idk why it’s never occurred to them? I guess we’ll never know. Sounds like you have read the ragdolling book. I’m all for additional options so I agree that a knockback distance option could be fun. Have it go the other way too for giggles...

V3.2.0 Stable - b10 Hotfix

Check your sandbox settings because default is 10 quests per tier. You can increase that too if you want it slower. If you choose to go back to the forest and do 7 or 8 tier 2 jobs for Rekt then of course you’ll only end up doing a few for Jenn before the next trade route mission comes up and...

Why is big multiplayer not supported?

Here is the thing though. Multiplayer as you explain it has never been supported. It isn't something they abandoned, or stopped supporting. It's something that was never intended in the first place. The real issue behind player counts is the amount of data that a fully 3D voxel world requires...

A New Chapter for The Fun Pimps and 7 Days to Die

If you disregard the dates and just look at the feature list you can see that everything has been completed up to the bandit feature. Even the next feature after bandits has had some work done as we got a new load screen and UI menu appearance in one of the recent updates. So everything else...

Random Idea

There are many many additional achievements they could add but I'm not sure whether they can once the game releases. Microsoft and Sony are pretty rigid about their rules regarding achievements. It makes people mad when they get that 100% but then 6 months later they check back and are only at...

Beaten horse but i miss old cloths now

I'm just so grateful that, for me, spending time changing outfits, changing my appearance, changing my hair, building a closet full of clothes is the most boring and non-critical aspect of really any game. Even with games that emphasize it like life sim farming games (which I enjoy) I never...

A New Chapter for The Fun Pimps and 7 Days to Die

You may be remembering an unofficial roadmap circulated on Steam for a time. It was a non-developer’s best attempt to update TFP’s V1.0 roadmap shown in 2024, to reflect more recent developments. It looked official to some, but it was not. So its prominence was reduced to prevent confusion. The...

Console Mods?

I mean, it is probably a poor idea to begin with to expect PC-level modding capabilities when you are buying a console in the first place. There are multiple factors that limit the capability for consoles. Not just the lack of available hardware for the overhead mods require, but also the...

Windows Game crashing, taking computer off with it

Windows Game crashing, taking computer off with it

Game crashing and not running smoothly are 2 different issues. The first one indicates a serious problem and if just a driver update made it go away (instead of a hardware switch) you really got the best possible outcome. Your CPU is quite old, from 2018. Depending on your expectations it...
