You're very welcome. I was getting a lot of questions, and I thought just easier to make a video so people can get back into it :)

@@Vedui42 Absolutely. A lot of my Ark videos exist for the exact same reason. It feels kind of surreal to be sort of starting over again after intensively focusing on Ark for 3+ years lol. But it's helping me have empathy for all the new players joining the 7d2d community!

Ark is such an amazing game. To be honest, if I had started off with ARK before 7 Days To Die, I likely would have done tonnes more videos in it. I played it quite late however, ran servers and had a blast. Waiting for ARK II, ASA didn't quite catch me :) Funny tidbit, the best performing video on my channel of all time (in view count) is an ark video I made years back that still brings in views steadily.

@@Vedui42 that's really cool! Isn't it funny how those kinds of things work? You do one video on a different topic and that one ends up taking off and then people want more content like that. 😆 My best performing video is one on how to set up a server for ASA. Definitely not the most interesting topic or one that I'm super excited to be making videos about. But like you were saying, lots of people asking questions, I saw a need and decided to make a video on it… And that video is still in my top three every single month, nine months after it was published. I had so many more things I wanted to do in ASE, but when ASA dropped I didn't feel I had a choice except to go with it, if I wanted to keep growing, as my channel was 100% Ark at that time. And people just weren't really watching content on ASE anymore. But I've thought for a while that Ark feels like it's in decline. Snail Games finally cooked their golden goose, trying to suck money from the franchise, and ended up splitting and alienating a lot of their player base. So yeah I had to make the decision to pivot, didn't seem wise to trust my channel's entire future on a company with such poor communication, lack of transparency, and poor decisions lately, in my opinion. I have one series I'm still doing in ASA, a weekly live stream Tuesday nights with some friends that I mostly do just for fun, we are taming all the creatures on the island in alphabetical order. Along with some other crazy challenges. But other than that, I've pretty much moved on from Ark now, though I'll miss it, such a great game. But I think 7d2d and Enshrouded are likely to be my new primary games. And I'm always down for collabs by the way, if I can think of a project that might be a win/win for everyone involved. I've done a ton of collabs in the Ark community, even with much bigger, more established creators. 💜

Thank you for this. Can you please make a tutorial video for how to use the prefab editor? I'd like to know how to properly export a prefab so it will show up as a POI in a rwg world.

You know what I think would be fun? A farming game made with the voxel type programming. Most farming sims are superficial, include expensive machinery, while farming in 7 Days is pretty basic. The old way of hoeing the ground, and planting by hand was pretty cool, and worked, but didn't work on a large scale. There was almost no way to simulate it properly. I would like one that simulated basic hand tools, to work the soil, plant the seeds, and cover them. Then harvest, separate the grain from the stalks, and winnow. Then bag and sell. Upgrade with small basic machinery, either driven by a cow, a mule, or an ox, or a small tractor they used to use back in the early 1900's. You buy the block size, I think a chunk is 16*16, and when you make enough money from selling the crops, you can buy another chunk to farm. Ah, maybe I'm just bored of killing zombies in order to build and find food. I would rather grow it. Don't get me started on how lame it is to use a dew collector and it can't catch a single drop of rain. Or be able to fill mason jars with river water and boil it. Nope. Need a dew collector to collect river water and boil it. Is it just me, or is it just getting worse? A16 had the best system for learning, A20 had good graphics, but there is still no sign of mining enhancements. Instead, it feels like they want us to stop digging. I would play for months after a new release. Now, I'm bored.

What I sense from what you write, is really that the game has gotten more 'dumbed down' for players. Instead of making it more complex (which adds longevity and playability), they make it ... simpler. And I agree. I've been trying to say that for such a long time, that they should make it MORE complex. Make the systems MORE advanced. Not dumbing everything down. So I'm 100 % with you there!

@@Vedui42 Bang, nail right on the head. I think it would be cool if they nerfed all the variants, and just made a horde. A real horde. Day 7, start with something small. Day 14, double. Day 21, double that again. Each horde night gets harder and harder until there are thousands. Beginning of the day, they are in cities and the wilderness outside of your current location. They begin to surround you. They slowly walk towards your base, until the night falls when they rush in. No steel fists. Just an overwhelming Romero styled horde. The end of the night, the remainder disperses rather than despawns. They flow into the closest city, and disappear until the next horde night. Eventually, it's just a sea of zombies. No amount of ammo can disperse that crowd. Kill two or three hundred? There are thousands. Eventually, they will get ya.

I made a mod which changes the xml for you, sadly not updated for 1.0 yet. If enough people want one I'll make it again :)

@stevenprevett6667 4 ай бұрын

And then back to default if your not running the mod. Just saves you messing with your game files

@Vedui42 4 ай бұрын

Yeah :) I thought about making a mod, but it's such a simple edit I tend to not bother, as asking people to go download it, unzip in the Mods folder etc is a lot more effort for people than to just go and delete a few characters in a file :D But for own use, definitely a good idea :)

@stevenprevett6667 4 ай бұрын

@Vedui42 alot of people are familiar with the using mods process but not editing xmls. Would put a lot of people off attempting to use this. But with a mod it's literally 3 steps to enable this?

@Vedui42 4 ай бұрын

It's true a lot of people are familiar. However it's not just in the steps, which is far more than 3. You have to go to a website, have to sign up, have to create a user, then find the mod, go download, save it down, extract it, etc. For most people, just finding the line in an xml and removing is a lot faster. :) but a mod would work too, just a lot of people never do mods, and many wouldn't modify xml either, that's for sure :)

So I assume if you fill in a huge area and turn physics off, then you will never be able to turn it on again or else it will all fall? So I turned physics off to fill in the hole and then turned back on after I filled in the massive area and then deleted a block and everything fell after?

@Vedui42 3 ай бұрын

It's hard to say. Because it depends on the order of SI checks. It's a bit "dumb" in that sense, so sometimes you make a cube and everything is fine, and sometimes some blocks fall/collapse after, and sometimes you might have everything collapse. So I tend to mark my area, fill it, then go bash a few blocks to make sure it's stable... and simply replace if not, until it's fully stable.

Hello Vedui42 in version 1.0 the jd commands does not work, do you know how to delete the drones now? I have 2 drones lost on the server... Thanks so much for the tutorials

@Vedui42 4 ай бұрын

Tell me about it! One of the updates totally broke my drone (vanished while I repaired it) and ... I had to delete my character and make a new one, which was annoying as hell! It seems there're some bugs that make drones be "lost" ...and in ways jd can not resolve it, which is painful.

Does this work on a server or singleplayer only? I have a server for me and my friends with permissions and the blue box is the only thing that works I don't see the menu at all in the DM ?

@Vedui42 4 ай бұрын

It actually should work on servers too. It's a bit weird (and I haven't tried conclusively for 1.0) but you might need to make these changes on both client and server. For a21 I've used this now and then on servers, and I suspect 1.0 would also.

looks like someone used this to wipe out my base & use my horde base as a bombing tarcet on a vinilla server , as was away from my base ro a little bit , did a mission and some raiding od buildings around my mission , come back to my base , it was turned into a big squear block and my horde base was use ( as i can discribe ) as a bombing traget made me wanna delete the game i was playing , now i have my own server with this game , one where it's a friendly atmosfer & happy to help in any way we can , like i was on the one i deleted.

@Vedui42 3 ай бұрын

That sucks. It's a reason to be on your own server or one you can trust, as admins should never be doing stuff like this. But too many random public servers run into issues.
