Stranded II
Mods TheSurvivalist:Christmas Update 12-24-19Your putting them IN the fire right? Iron Nuggets?
and you deleted everything and downloaded the latest update fresh? If your playing a "really" old save I could see where it be a problem.
you do not unzip it into the original stranded 2 or anything...you just unzip it into it's own folder and click the .exe
If it's not working I would like to know your system specs please? Post them? Operating system, graphics card, amount of ram, and processor speed. If you "right click" the .exe and "run it in compatibility mode" for another operating system maybe? other then what you have?
And I do not play an old save, I tried with a new game. And yes, I unziped it into it's own folder.
I have Windows 7, 64bit, Graph: Nvidia G210M, ram: 4GB, processor speed: 1.3GHz. I use an Asus Laptop and they use their own driver for the graphics card so I can't use the latest Nvidia drivers.
I tried every compatibility mode but it wouldn't work.
I assume you actually tried to simply click TheSurvivalist.exe in this update and got the black scrren? If not try that first.
or
Download this tiny debug file and copy/paste it into your TheSurvivalist main folder.
Double click on it to start a new game and see if the editor pops up showing you an error while loading.
If there IS a error please copy the error here so I can see it please?
Thank you for your patience...

Thank you for YOUR patience. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience I cause you but I like the mod so much and I would really like to play it.

karinotschka,
Ok, I think it's simply your graphics card obviously it cannot run this mod as it is.
So...I have re-zipped the mod for you with 24 bit color graphics instead of 32 bit color...and set the option sliders to medium.
Give it one more shot with this download link...
delete all old copies.
download the zip n unzip it.
click the .exe to play.
If it works, you can turn up the sliders for better graphics but LEAVE THE COLOR AT 24 BIT. If you move the sliders and cannot load the game, atleast you got the zip file to re-do it, and then just leave the sliders at meduim.

I wrote a complaint to Asus but they haven't answered yet.
Thank you so much for your help!
Since you may have helped the walking lag, think I will try the newest update.
Walking lag also seemed to be affected by my Intel graphics settings. Under 3D moved the slider to performance, and under Power changed it to Maxium Performance. But walking just seems a little too fast, but I can fix that.
Hope you get the 'bugs' killed before moving on to your next adventure. And as I have said before 'great mod!'
Would be interested in hearing your conclusion...I think I have made a huge step forward in performance compared to the way the mod performed in the past.
Let me know please...I really only get to test this mod out on my system, and my sisters system...so I hope it is better for the majority of you guys, as I believe it should be.

To All,
I am just taking a little bit of a break from scripting this mod(gets monotonous
sometimes), so enjoy the game for a while and I will get back to work on it soon enough. I have been working on my next preview of my stand-alone survival game this past 5 days, hope to post it soon at my website, with the currently posted Terrain & Weather preview.Have not seen much posted in the way of bugs or problems...so I assume it's a pretty all-around solid download!!! Makes me happy
Place soft iron on anvil to create shovel (4 hits)
Hit it 3 times, don't let it turn into the shovel head.
Pick it up, you will still have 4 soft iron but your forging level will go up for every hit you do. Rinse and repeat ... Profit!!
fixed/re-scripted all forging skillups for next update. Nice find Data!you now only get the skill ups at the moment when the item is created, after the last hit, not after each hit. So if you pick up the nugget or bar early, you get zero skill ups.
Also I'm finding it much too difficult to add fuel to the kiln.

yeah I need to tweak that kiln, seems if you rotate it upon building it, the fuel "sweet spot" can get placed in a peculiar position often. I also need to make it's shelter cover fire in rain...I missed that script when I added the kiln...so currently you have to build a shelter "facing" the fuel spot, and build it really close to the opening....then it will cover from rain, but thats just ridicules
Yeah i was thinking about that the other day...when in hand, all spears need (should) have further reach than other hand wielding weapons.
ty guys again, for the feedback here!
Love the mod been playing it off and on for months now and really enjoying the latest version. Thanks for all your work. Though I think I need a better computer for it to play smooth.
I have a snowsuit and lamp and still get frostbite.
My wood house is half buried in the ground. Still works just annoying. It does allow me to build storage barrels inside though which is nice.
With the current tedious method of making clay bottles you can never make enough to make a large batch of wine. Please allow us to do 25-50 bottles in the kiln. And or we could make a brick kiln that is larger. Still I wouldn't want to make brick 10 at a time either.
The hut is too short. Come to think of it most of the buildings are a bit short.
Would like to see a much larger (4+ times bigger) bamboo shelter in two versions 3 walls and no walls at all. To put my cook fire and forge in. Which reminds me a nice stone cook stove or even a griddle would be nice.
Something like this is what I had in mind brick, stone or mud version.

When are we going to get a nice stone house and a large storage shed preferably attached?
Edit: I haven't seen the hive for bees yet what am I missing? Certainly get stung enough.
Also cant use ladders or ropes to get out of tree houses noticed that in my older games too.

heya littlejohn,
thanks for the feedback. I will consider your ideas. The beehive is a rare object...it will not spawn until your on a island for at least 10 days. They have a 10 day spawn rate.
build 2 kilns...or 3

Myst,
you sure you have the last update? 06-13?
if so, please re-download...I am sure it works but I will double check.

Why not allow us to build a hive with a random chance of catching a swarm? High chance in spring low in summer and none the rest of the year just like real life.
You might want to look up "Top Bar Hive" their easy to make. I've made one before but never put it to use before moving.
I didn't have any trouble with distilling salt water but tried bottled water fist and couldn't get it to do anything maybe its what you put in first that doesn't work?
Oh We need a way to prospect for clay. I'm sure their used to be but cant find it now.

all my hard work lolCould you also add clay prospecting. I'm having to cheat just to get enough clay for pot skill.
