Exploration and First Days - Modded Vintage Story - Ep 1

[@KhaosSN]

Just a note for everyone, there is to be no arguing about what VS is or is not inspired by the comments. It is its own game, that is what matters.

[@Khrysalis01]

It is my understanding that the mod Terrafirmacraft was made by the developer of VS for a well known block game. He also worked on the doomed game called HyTale, that was much anticipated by people from another similar block game about 5-6 years ago, but left because nothing was happening. VS has its own engine that is not Java. It’s one of the reasons VS is so pretty and detailed. Besides being a beautiful game, it has music that can’t be beat, and you can configure from plays continuously to intermittently to no music at all (a waste of good music). I like intermittently because you don’t know when it will play and often will play when you’re working on stuff or battling for your life and can set the mood. This game is so immersive in so many ways. I hope this doesn’t start an argument(s). Delete if I overstepped. ✌🏼

[@ThylineTheGay]

@@Khrysalis01 java's limitations are overplayed tbh, mc looks the way it does because that's the style they chose, not because of language limitations i feel like they might have chosen to not polish the style because of how immensely change-averse the community is

[@dmsys6516]

@@ThylineTheGay Yeah true. But the team at minecraft have not done minecraft justice. There's also a lot of "bad" code in there and modders are running this game at this point. Mojang has even went back on promises cuz its not possible for them to make some of the updates lol(the arc. Also it can look better but not as better as it could if it wasn't written in java.

[@ThylineTheGay]

@@dmsys6516 the worst of the code is mostly legacy, 1.14, 1.15, 1.18, and others all featured pretty decent performance improvements also, please remember what large worldwide disruptive event happened around when they were over-promising

[@plad4564]

​@Khrysalis01 I thought that too that it was by the TFC guy but it's actually by the Vintagecraft team, which is like TFC-lite and yes they did work with Hypixel

[@Gamer-pk9up]

The pigs attack you because you are near their piglets. This change is probably the most annoying because piglets are tiny and hard to spot until its to late and the whole swine squad chases you down for miles.

[@ironscalp484]

It might be annoying but wild pigs and boars are known to be quite... aggresive Even domestic pigs have an aggressive side to them and may challenge their owners by trying to bite or ram them Plenty of historic tales of people getting killed by a boar that came bursting out of a bush, it's crazy how humans managed to domesticate them into somewhat docile creatures

[@natanluiza2936]

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I used to love the OTHER block game until the dev team focused on things that didn't matter as much and I got bored. I'm just getting started on VS and so far I love the way they are developing it. I still have to learn a lot about it and this is saving me a lot of time so I can just get into the game.

[@KhaosSN]

You're very welcome! Its definitely everything I want out of a voxel game these days

[@Triliton]

They definately need to add rivers!

[@nordinreecendo512]

I don't care if common copper and uncommon tin is cheaty. I for one love your playthrough *because* of the more "cheaty" options you chose, because I play with those options too.

[@StayWinningBlackKing]

thankyou for linking the mods in the description 💗

[@KhaosSN]

You're welcome!

[@cassanthemum]

Oh wow! A builder who hates death runs! Settling in to watch everything. 😂

[@KhaosSN]

Definitely lol, death runs are tedious!

[@phillipwebb1104]

Awesome video dude. Been playing VS since version 1.15. Absolutely loving it. A lot of the mods on your list are actually in the game now 🎉

[@KhaosSN]

Yeah there are a few, I've updated the list in future episiodes. Thanks for watching!

[@Khrysalis01]

What you were hearing just before the bear attacked was him drowning. He probably died from chasing after you into deep water. I’ve killed many bears like this, they realize too late that they shouldn’t have gone into the water chasing lil ole me. lol I don’t know if you know this, but with Carry On mod you can put chests, vessels and tree hollows on your back, I put the stuff like bushes and ore into the container, anything that you don’t need to be readily available. My favorite are tree hollows because they have 10 - 12 slots and in early game that’s invaluable.

[@AquaSwooshie]

Haha you ARE doing something to the pigs - you're existing near their babies!

[@KhaosSN]

Fair enough lol, they should just have their babies elsewhere then!

[@shadoeboi212]

Hey the auto map marker mod needs to be activated with ctrl+shift+M which will bring up a GUI to customize it and then you just need to click enable

[@KhaosSN]

Yup! Figured that out while recording the next episode! Thanks for confirming though!

[@TheNobleStar9075]

Just got Vintage Story recently which made me want to watch some playthroughs, and I'm glad I stumbled onto your channel! Already a big fan of the (relatively) small yet tight-knit & dedicated community this game has, combined with how supportive the devs seem.

[@KhaosSN]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@potatoballs7988]

Holy shit those are a lot of mods. Hope to see more of this looks cool

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

Missing the village mod though

[@KhaosSN]

Yeah I looked at that one, didn't care for it in its current look

[@Dale-ju4nb]

This the first time I listened to the mod list idk how you made that interesting

[@Sarafimm2]

I think Whole Lotta Tree Seeds should be in the vanilla game or the Devs should give all trees a fruiting stage and chopping down a tree during that stage should produce a lot more seeds. Many trees produce seeds/nuts which are either edible right away or with a little processing. Like putting walnut tree seeds/nuts into a crafting grid with a stone or hammer to produce edible walnuts. I had several oak, pine, and walnut trees where I lived growing up and you can eat what all three trees produce--especially the ABUNDANT harvest from the walnut trees!

[@vhhawk]

0:00 mods 10:30 world gen 18:30 gameplay begins

[@KhaosSN]

Thanks!

[@Sarafimm2]

For shorthand, I call the Plant Materials mod the "Elven" mod because it includes some ... very elven-like stuff. May want to mark flowering bushes by the date they should be ripe instead of the amount of days they say they'll be ripe. I have found that 1.19.3 has a lot of "hitching". I've seen a comment about it being a HUD mod. If it is, then it's the one in the upper left hand corner because I don't use the other one.

[@AndyDaze]

Excellent job in the first episode Khaos, you have some great mods there, if I could recommend one more mod I would recommend knapster, it's a napping mod no guesses there. Good luck on the series hope you have a ton of fun.

[@KhaosSN]

Thanks Andy! I've been thinking about adding Knapster. I also added the Quarry mod after seeing it on Rusty Gears.

[@Sarafimm2]

@@KhaosSN Knapster is really nice when you have to make a lot of clay molds or items. And it makes knapping flint or rock very quick and effortless. For a KZbinr/Streamer, I'd highly recommend because it cuts down on viewer boredom a bit.

[@Nitram4392]

You had me at Firearms.

[@TheInsaneEraser]

That poor bug was just minding its own business D:

[@annoyingfandragon]

Him throwing away the copper to carry the mushrooms only to eat the mushrooms and NOT PICK THE COPPER BACK UP is physically painful to me.

[@KhaosSN]

lol mushrooms were probably more important at the time. Food is scarce at the beginning of VS.

[@grilledcheese05]

I cant ever finish videos like these, i will most likely immedeatly fall asl-

[@80yearsold23]

God dammit now I have to download most of these mods 😂

[@bisc0309]

Don't know if you fixed it or really care but the cave in setting was disabled.

[@KhaosSN]

Wait really? I thought I enabled it. I'll check it out and see if I can enable it after the fact. Thanks!

[@OliwiaKasza-d1k]

keep it up!!! I've been enjoying your videos!

[@KhaosSN]

Glad you like them!

[@jwhite17]

I’m not sure you need cellar door. I think that’s already in the game. I have regular doors in my cellar and it seems fine to seal a cellar with the reduced spoilage

[@KhaosSN]

Interesting! I'll check into it, thanks for the tip!

[@shaynegadsden]

The cellar door not only looks good but it does work better

[@hsngm33]

you did cave-ins enabled, but it didnt get enabled for some reason?

[@KhaosSN]

Yeah I don't know why the UI glitched, but I can enable it with a command in game.

[@yarro1965]

Might be late, but pie and pot on the shelf should be in Dana Tweaks now!

I saw freedom unit and it made me laugh.

[@KhaosSN]

Yeah its a funny little thing.

[@ytiralc]

Death runs up the stakes. All gaming is in essence, pointless, so whatever makes it fun for you, do that.

[@luluwohoo]

hey! I just found your channel and I love your content. I hope you become successful :)

[@KhaosSN]

Thank you so much!!

[@DaimeneX]

So there is an issue with Geology Additions that breaks animations currently, dunno why. Nobody is talking about it either.

[@KhaosSN]

Interesting, do you know which animations are broken? Mine look alright in 1.19.3 I think. If we know which ones we can mention it on the mod page.

[@DaimeneX]

​@@KhaosSN I've actually looked into it on the games official Discord. According to Dana, one of the more knowledgeable modders, the issue arises from the nature of the mod itself. Most mods when made properly are supposed to add onto the game by either creating new features or patching into existing ones. Geology Additions doesn't do that. Instead it overwrites the vanilla files, making its compatibility with other mods dubious as if they try to call on the newest versions of those files they might react in unexpected ways. This means the issues go deeper than just missing animations, but since you asked, all of the tools in your game likely use the 1.18 versions of their files instead of the new 1.19 files. This results in all new animations just straight up missing from the game, knives don't have a the forward jab and grass cutting animations, axes aren't held by the head and don't have the new idle, spears behave in a weird way as well.

[@KhaosSN]

Very interesting, thankfully not having the animations isn't technically game breaking but hopefully that gets fixed by the GA dev quickly.

[@DaimeneX]

@@KhaosSN I don't find it very likely considering they were made aware of this issue back in September..

[@Potatoras]

Thats a modpack sheesh

[@russakj]

hey, i tried your list and kept having a particular problem ... upon loading into the world i could break and pick up stuff just fine but it randomly just breaks so ... rightclick doesnt work on stuff anymore i cant open chests etc. after removing the mod that adds the white gui info at the bottom left it seems to work fine for now :) i dont know if anyone else encountered those issues.

[@KhaosSN]

Interesting, never saw anything like that. But I've heard that the one of the temp/info GUIs I'm using might be causing the world hitching I see.

[@SirMesmer]

I wonder if you ever tried Toolworks mod. It's amazing, but unfortunately doesn't work with prospect together. ALso Blacksmith gloves is one I cannot live without

[@KhaosSN]

I haven't! I'll check them out!

[@finch600]

I havent even played this game yet, been watching videos on it for days tho. For my very first playthrough when I download it tomorrow am i gonna use all the mods listed? You know it Ill do vanilla one day, probably

[@vaporboy947]

[@nicholascox7559]

I love this game downloaded it and have struggled to copper age in 4 hours

[@KhaosSN]

Hell yeah, congrats. Getting to copper age is a pretty big hurdle!

[@CabanasBeats]

it's the mod that gives you the huds for temp, ect. it was messing with my game like that too. disable it.

[@KhaosSN]

Which one? The upper left one with the graphic or the one in the lower left thats just white text? I'll remove whichever one for episode 3! Thanks for the tip!

[@ivandimitrijevic6095]

Those mineshaft, are they part of some mod? Don't know if you mentioned about it.

[@KhaosSN]

Yup, there is a mineshaft mod in the list that I mentioned!

[@ivandimitrijevic6095]

@KhaosSN Thanks, man. I thought I went through the list thoroughly, but I must be blind.

[@Sarafimm2]

@@ivandimitrijevic6095 The Underground Mines mod is the name of the mod. There is a Minerz mod that adds a Miner class type, too.

[@Lord_Skarra]

Oddball question... could i get a VS Modpack? just a zip of all your mods already in a folder? so i can do a playthrough myself? I've been playing VS lately to... but haven't fully gotten into the modding stuff.

[@KhaosSN]

I don't really have a good way of hosting a modpack. However, if you follow the links in the description and click 1 click install on the page then VS will auto open and install the mods for you. Its really fast.

[@Lord_Skarra]

So i did exactly that... except manual download... and then added eletricity and vies airships... bit of an issue though... Rivers do not work basically at all in 1.19.4.. i swear everytime i tried to load a world with it, it would just have chunks litterly shredding the map... be careful if u continue to use it...@@KhaosSN

[@KhaosSN]

Did you do the landcover settings correctly? There are recommended settings for it on the mod page. I screwed it up the first time and had really jittery land gen.

[@altairbauer3297]

why do all the vimntage story channels iv seen refer to minecraft as other blockgame? i dont get it is there something wron with enjoying both games? becuase i play both regulerly minecraft isent the only block game either 7 days 2 die also is a block game

[@KhaosSN]

Likely because Vintage Story always gets the "Is This Minecraft?" or "Is this Minecraft knock-off" treatment. So its easier just to not mention MC by name.

[@Akira-Aerins]

7d2d is a block game?? o,o

[@Lord_Skarra]

everytime i see games like this... Is This Another blockgame ?? I don't even base it on the fact Minecraft exists... because things existed before Minecraft existed...@@KhaosSN

[@Lord_Skarra]

the only reason i found Vintage Story... was because of a Mod Developer for Galaticraft had it in his twitter tweets... which is a mod for Space For Minecraft... After i found VS and started playing it... i was instantly hooked... as this is More Realistic and actually its own dang thing... not ripped off by a 3rd party company thats ruinning its versions with dumb nerfs and stupid stuff.

[@Akira-Aerins]

@@Lord_Skarra you talking about hytale's block game or a different blockgame? what is getting nerfed?

[@ThylineTheGay]

everyone forgets about mc's datapacks 😔

[@KhaosSN]

Because datapacks are really mediocre compared to actual mod support. They are absurdly limited in what they can do.

[@ThylineTheGay]

@@KhaosSN it just feels not right to take jabs at a game for not having something that most games don't have

[@DaimeneX]

@@ThylineTheGay In all respect to Minecraft, the jabs are all too deserved. We were promised an actual mod support even before 1.0 officially came out. Datapacks are great, but they don't give a proper ability to mod the game like Forge or Fabric loaders do.

[@indmur]

Datapacks are confusing af to install because for some godforsaken reason unlike resourcepacks there are not universal. So for every damn world you have to copy and paste the datapack into the folder. Also no game should have me interacting with system folders in the first place. Resourcepacks get a partial pass because at least those are one and done. Also way more limited than actual mods.
