Gameplay questions / Lost pet with values items. What can I do?

« on: December 21, 2019, 03:24:07 PM »

Hei,

Pardon my noob question but what I can do when I lost my dog which had valuable items on him.

I had 3 dogs, we encountered an elk and ordered the dogs to attack. Stupid idea, I realize now.
I did not find the elk and only two of my dogs returned or were found.
Jack, the dog, had my most valuable items, all kinds of axes. They were needed for building the dream cabin;(

Searched the dog, or remains of it for about 30min, I do not feel like trying more.

The game world still has the dog, I guess:
{07410605}      | Items at your feet will be moved to an adjacent location or packed on an animal.
{07410605}      | You start packing items on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the 19 arrows on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the woodsman's axe on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the splitting axe on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the carving axe on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the broad axe on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the masterwork knife on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the fine shovel on Jack.
{07410605}      | You packed the sauna scoop on Jack.

Last time I seen Jack:
{08440603}      | SHOUT A COMMAND TO: Dog called Jack
{08440603}      | ANIMAL COMMANDS: Jack: Attack
{08440603}      | "Attack, Jack, attack!"
{08440603}      | You run.
{08440603}      | The bull elk seems alert.
{08440603}      | You run.
{08440603}      | Bull elk flees.

What can I do? Should I give up? What are you past xp with these kinds of situations?
Thanks

Bug reports / Re: [3.6.0 stable win10] Game freezes randomly while using f1-f7 keys

« on: December 18, 2019, 11:25:58 PM »

Hi there!

It's true that save wouldn't help much here. Cases like these are always unfortunately tricky to solve, but let's try.

You mentioned that this has never happened before, so I'm assuming you've been playing the game on the same computer/system for a good while earlier.
Can you recall any big changes to your system, be it Windows updates or anything at all,  that might mark a border between previously working and now freezing state of the game?

I never actually encountered this specific issue before thorough the years, the only thing that is worth mentioning and forgot to add to OP, my bad, is that is the first time playing from steam. I used to play from the same rig the dl version, definitely had older drivers but I dont think thats the issue.

Unfortunate but I guess we should wait to see if more users experience the same, I kinda imagined it will be hard to find the actual cause.

Bug reports / [3.6.0 stable win10] Game freezes randomly while using f1-f7 keys

« on: December 17, 2019, 11:42:04 AM »

Greetings!

I wanted to let you guys know I am experiences game freezes(app not responding, needing to close) while viewing the map or using f1-f7 keys.

Very random occurrence, could not find pausable causes. Usually, I had to close the game, start again and actually working until my next freeze. Random, might be trying to use a ritual.
Usually when I try to escape the menu or changing f1-f7.

It never happened to me before. Fresh steam install, verified integrity.
System is windows 10, latest updates, drivers for intel i5 8400, 16gb ram 2400, geforce 1050 GTX TI, ssd. Using on a full HD display 144 Mhz, full-screen game options.


I think its futile if i post the save, reloading saved games does not reproduce the freeze. It happens often though, once ever 30min lets say. Pretty unbearable to say. Thankfully, forced closing and starting again usually are pretty recent, 10 moves lost.

Gameplay questions / Re: Wolves! Help!

« on: June 04, 2018, 10:40:50 PM »

In the last week, I had one of the Best urw experiences.

Traveling towards njerpez, with 1 pig and 1 dog, i encounter wolves: i counted 6-8 before zooming out.
Marked the spot, equipped myself better and rallied companions.

We were 4 with 4 dogs, 2 pigs.

When we arrived at the spot, i realised there were 10+ wolves, never seen so many. I believe there were 15 wolves.

It was warlike. Chases, barks, hit and runs, spears and arrows flying everywhere. It was my most intense moments of urw.

After the epic fight, which lasted almost a day, all my 3 companions were dead and only 1 in 4 dogs lived. The next day i killed more wounded wolves.

I had 9! Wolf furs, but we killed more not to be found. I only found 2 dead companions and only 1 dog of 3. I killed 1 pig by mistake( got into sight when i fired an arrow).

So much loot and fun, and more importantly I lived( their attacks rarely pierced my armor fine mail armors)

As a conclusion, wolves are pesk just like they were/are IRL. I wound gladly fight a big bear than 4 wolves. Any number higher is almost certain suicide. Avoid wolves!!!

Gameplay questions / Re: Homeland Robbers (Spoiler)

OK! Did another couple of hours session searching the bandits, woke up one day and the log said:
The homeland robbers quest has expired  and was removed from your quest log

What can I say? A mention would have been nice? If the quest didn't exist at all? Both YES

I believed I searched 1 or 2 months in game.
When I was bored, I collected berries. I think I have collected  100-200 lb of berries. I have killed all wildlife from the circle: bear, wolf, badger, 2 foxes. I have lost 2 pigs and 20+ arrows, but more importantly I have lost my nerves which should not happen in a game.

My advice to future players is to decline the quest, forget about it. It is broken af or bugged.
My advice to the devs is to remove or change the quest, it is bad game design.

Quit the game?
yes
Save the character?
no
Do you wish to die?
yes

That was the story of my longest lived character, died by rage quit.

Thanks for the suggestions! After reading my post now, I realised it was a bit aggressive but damn it played with my nerves.

I would have used dogs if I could find them, the char will have 1 year after the winter (its beginning of winter)

Nice tip about losing items, but I think I could take the odds of fighting them ( pretty good stats, gear from njarjeps and weapon)

I will try searching soon, I think I'm going to reveal every zoomed in tile pretty soon that's how much I searched. Fingers crossed

I don't want to be a thread necromancer but after browsing the whole 1st page of google, I decided this is the appropriate thread to post my insights on the quest.

I am a kaumo, living their lands, having done like 10 quests for them. I really want to complete this one.

My first try, unkownly, was packing some gear and head for the distant journey with my boar as backpack with furs in case I ran into merchants.

After the lenghty journey, discovering also new towns, I reached the spot and started searching for like 2h IRL, found a bear, which was a hard fight, getting a fracture at the shoulder and 2 bruises and 1 shallow cut. Tanned the leather there and I thought the best idea was to sell the 200lb meat to the newly found village.

Reading the quest again and again, it mentioned something like the bandits wondered alot so I thought of searching outside of the quest circle for a while.

Bam, bandits message screen showed up and until the bandits reached me, I dropped most items and positioned myself so I would fight only one at a time.
By miracle, I survived and killed the two bandits(expecting 3 owl tribe ones) getting 2-3 additional cuts. I thought the quest was done.

Healed and packed all the gear and headed to the town to sell duplicate items and the bear meat. Traded for a new boar and some furs.

The quest circle was still present on the map but decided to talk to the quest npc anyway.

The quest was not complete, organised a new journey with even more meat and my two bors carying stuff.

Reaching the circle again, searched again and decided to build a shelter. By mistake, instead of making fire I accidentally hit the boar and enraged him. The fight was awkward, didn't want to kill him but to calm him. I just waited to calm down, dodging but still getting 2 pierces in my abdomen, decided to kick him. After the  3rd kick, he calmed down but got wounded. Made the fire and slept.

I quickly got awoken by a young wolf killing my boar(was equipped with long bow and broad knife...) By the time I wielded my spear, the boar was dead and the wolf ran after a only hit to the legs. Could not follow up due to late summer hardly any tracks and heavy Forrest. Cursed and cut the pig, tanned the leather, etc while still searching...

The following days I encounter the same wolf, got another arrow hit, a badger and a fox which got serious wounded but still lost her. Lost like 10 arrows. This was getting really frustrating.

After the week, the wolf killed my second boar and lost it again! I cursed so hard, decided to build a heavy trap( besides a shovel, cellar in the meantime while searching)

The next morning he was trapped and got beaten with a rough club in the skull untill dead, that's how mad I was. So, 1week in urw passed searching and no goddamn bandits. I have wasted so much time effort and gear that is FRUSTRATING.

I am basically living in the circle now, as I have 5 dehaired skins to do, etc.

I have spend countless hours IRL trying this quest. It's just f***king bad game design. ITS incredibly frustrating and dounting. Just change or remove the quest, really what the ****

If I haven't decided to see what is like to complete 20+quests for a tribe, I wouldn't have tried so much. Now I want to shift delete the game

Mod Releases / Re: Fish Farmer module v3.5

« on: May 18, 2018, 04:11:21 PM »

Exactly, it's under shift-M. So when I press E it goes to fish Egg harvest instead of weaving. Even when I manually press it, it goes into the egg harvesting menu, making it impossible to weave.

How would I change it?

I guess you do it from menudef_jobs.txt. you use the self-sufficiency mod by caethan, I encounter the same problem. Plus, crafting nets are duplicated but no other issues. Most mod tweaking is farly easy

Is roasted meat more valuable than plain meat when trading? Thanks!
