Can you upload me one of those zip files please

Ok, added two links for linux users - the aur package and the flatpak package

oh i found it

Do you have a link for that?

You can also make a tiny mod to reduce the spawn rate, open the file assets/survival/entities/land/drifter.json and in line 347, replace "chance: 0.1," with e.g "chance: 0.03," If you run the Modmaker.exe it should generate a shareable mod .zip that also persists when you install new updates of the game.

Dear Community v1.15.3-rc.1, an unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. We decided to rebalance some of the new survival challenges in this update, which we might re-introduce once players have ways to counter them. This includes Wind pushing players is now disabled by default (already in v1.15.2) Crop death stays, but a dead crop always returns a seed with a 100% chance Bell and Locust cage spawn rate rate increased by 20% You can now also use other fuel sources for the pit kiln instead of only firewood This update includes some bugfixes that have the potential to break other things, so we'll release it as unstable first.

Ah, wellll, players shouldn't need to manually juggle mod files anyway. I'm hoping you can just install a mod and the game client takes care of downloading the right version for you. That's why I set up the mod hub, to have a central repository of mods with a web api to interface with. More to come soon, hopefully.

If by almost all you mean the VintageStoryData folder - yes that one should stay

If you use the 1.15 installer it will ask you to deinstall 1.14.10 and you should deinstall it there indeed.

Oh, also a common cause of this is video recording software that hooks into the game.

Feature: Epic tree update Tree leaves no longer drop saplings, but plantable seeds, which grow into saplings Added new tree types cypress, purple heartwood, ebony, crimson king maple, walnut and larch Ebony and Purpleheart logs will be a rare valuable resource as these are rare and difficult to propagate trees The 2x2 redwood trees now have actual 2x2 trunks The world configuration "sapling growth days" as been changed into "sapling growth rate". This means if you have a custom setting (or play exploration / wilderness survival) you have to re-apply the config via /worldConfig saplingGrowthRate [0.1 20]. It's now a growth speed multiplier with 1 being the normal rate. Maple seeds swirl when they fall, Walnuts are edible Richer seasonal leaf colors Feature: Tropics update! Improved bamboo!

If henboxes are unavailable, hens will still lay eggs on the ground but these will not hatch! Chicks grow in size as they get older New juvenile stage (pullets and cockerels) before chickens reach adulthood: juveniles look like small adults, but do not lay eggs or fight. Feature: Baby animals update Baby animals grow in size as they age Most baby animals (apart from hares) are now a bit smaller when newborn Feature: 3D Models update! All player belts are now 3D Models All powdered/crushed resources are now 3D Flax twine and flax fibers Fat and beeswax Cattail and Papyrus roots Feature: Smooth stair stepping (thanks to @noname) Feature: Mega Performance update - over 100 smaller and larger tweaks to improve performance, focused on fps and chunk loading speed as well as general CPU, memory and graphics overhead. For most players, the game should be noticeably smoother, with less lag spikes.

Full ingots now need to be broken down into bits with a chisel to be place-able in a crucible Crops with an accumulated heat/cold damage of more than 48 hours will now die. Dead crops will still drop the same yields and seeds as the growth stage they were in before death. The accumulated damage slowly fades over time if the growing conditions are normal again Berry bushes will now stop ripening (>30 °C) and also revert their growth (>35 °C) if the temperature is too hot Bees no longer actively produce honey or fly around below 0°C. Honey production in progress resets below -10° (the bees eat the honey themselves!) Storm level winds now spawn more wind blown particles and push players and creatures (can be disabled via /worldconfigcreate bool windAffectedEntityMovement false) Feature: More New blocks Rope ladders, which are easier to place and remove, compared to wooden ladders - they drop down and pick up from above Drystone blocks and Drystone fences for each rock type + one very fancy mixed stone variant Full metal blocks, made from 6 metal plates Pre-Copper age doors called a Rough door.

Very WIP! Ropes are not synced to other players and are not stored with the save game right now Feature: Bow & Spear rebalance Added longbow and recurve bow as a new tier of missile weapon. Longbow has highest durability, but recurve has better damage.

Fixed: Chiseled block attachable properties not updated when being rotated Fixed: Firepits not ejecting the cooking slot contents when the input slot was exchanged with another item/block Fixed: Water placed by a bucket not spreading Fixed: Dying did not eject the crafting grid inventory contents Fixed: Avoid a crash in 'open to internet', will report as failed now instead Fixed: Creature pathfinding fixes. Should greatly improve chances that hens find their food sources and henboxes Fixed: Placing a block over a snow covered chiseled block did not properly clear snow Fixed: Sealed attribute not removed from crock in some cases Fixed: Deleting a file in assets/game/config/windpatterns crashing the game Fixed: Correct density for Metal parts and Metal scraps Fixed: Should fix game crashing when another player places chiseled blocks or pie in view direction Fixed: Might fix a crash issue when players chat in chat groups Fixed: Unnecessary line breaks in loose ore block info Fixed: Minor memory leaks Fixed: Creative mode reinforced block oddities Fixed: Incorrect interaction help with the plumb&square Fixed: Creative mode middle mouse click on firewood piles and peat piles buggy Fixed: Wrong GUI sizing on the customize world screen Fixed: Omok table top had material rock instead of wood Fixed: Game not remembering the configured sound output device Fixed: Game crashing from missing weather sound files Fixed: Game crashing on sound loading race condition (when sounds loaded slower than the main game - cause of Melchior's crash) Fixed: Some falling blocks spawned only white particles Fixed: Mitigate unwanted 30fps when FPS is set to 60, see Github #1133 Fixed: Adding/Removing armor to armor stands did not correctly synchronize to other players Fixed: Attempting to change a keybinding and clicking back button caused undefined behavior Fixed: Server view screen "Add to favorites" button overlapping with join button on some GUI scales API Updates Feature: New datastructure: CollectibleBehavior - allows to define behaviors that can be applied to blocks and items. First collectible behavior: GroundStorable Feature: Generic ground storage system: Can now easily make an item "ground storable" by adding a collectible behavior to it in the itemtype/blocktype, no programming required Feature: Added class GuiDialogCharacterBase to the api to allow modding of the character dialog. Moved the environnment and stats dialog code from the vanilla game into the survival mod (CharacterExtraDialogs). Feature: Added grid recipe property "recipeGroup" allows you to visually separate grid recipes in the handbook, see ladder recipe as example Feature: Added "/debug blockcodes" to export a full list of all block codes Feature: 3 new treegen parameters (for branches: randomWidthLoss, widthLossCurve; for treeBlocks: leaveslevels) Feature: New shapes JSON element property: disableRandomDrawOffset (used for Coopers Reed in ice) Feature: New shapes JSON element property: foliageWaveSpecial (used for custom foliage wind wave shaders for crops) Feature: New blocktype property: randomSizeAdjust used similarly to randomRotation, see Croton or Tree Fern for examples Feature: In blocktype, to enable swaying like bamboo canes, set VertexFlags { WindSway = true } In code this can also be achieved in VertexFlags by setting both grassWindWave and leavesWindWave (together) to true Feature: Two new FaceCullMode options for blocks: FlushExceptTop (example: farmland or path) and Stairs Feature: Renamed FaceCullMode MergeIce to ”Callback”. Calls method Block.ShouldMergeFace() for custom face culling Feature: Added server events MapRegionLoaded, MapRegionUnloaded Refactor: Renamed BlockEntityBehavior.FromTreeAtributes to BlockEntityBehavior.FromTreeAttributes Refactor: The block entity BEFire is now BEBehaviorBurning Refactor: Add method Block.GetBlockMaterial() as a partial replacement over querying Block.BlockMaterial. Implemented for miningspeeds, blast resistances & heat retention. Not implemented for face culling, worldgen, leaf decay, snow related stuff and similar. Refactor: All of Vintage Story now references .Net Framework 4.6.1 Refactor: Huge refactor of all leaves and wood related assets. Refactor: musicconfig.json Removed "playstyle" property, replaced with "onPlayList" property Refactor: Playstyles now have a new property "playListCode" Refactor: The mechpower shaders are now renamed into "instanced" and also used by the rope system Refactor: Full rewrite of runtime texture reloading The behavior of "atlas.InsertTextureCached" changed as a consequence These textures now get automatically reloaded by the game engine. Modders no longer need to manually reload those. Subsequent calls to this methods with the same arguments now updates the texture at runtime, instead of allocating yet another new area A runtime texture reload can now only happen between same resolution texture files. You can not runtime reload a texture with changed textures sizes This should fix all previous issues related to runtime texture reloading Reload about 2 to 5 times faster \o/ Refactor: Moved the data structures JsonObject, IntDataMap2D, FloatDataMap3D, Rectangled, Rectanglef, StackMatrix4, RotatableCube, ListDictionary and the interface IBlockFlowing into the correct namespace Notice: In AssetLocation, the domain and path should always be lowercase; the core game engine automatically sets them to lowercase if creating an AssetLocation from a filename on disk, or from a domain:path element in a JSON file Feature: Added velocity argument to SpawnCubeParticles() Feature: Added ability to make trees generate in 1 or 2 deep water (see bald cypress as example) Feature: Added .svg file loader by Nexrem and Lyrthras Feature: Added random rotation support for decors Feature: Placing decor blocks is now easier to do through world.BlockAccessor.AddDecor Feature: New api method api.Render.Render2DTexture with a MeshRef arg so one can adjust UVs if necessary Feature: Implemented the CompatiblityLib mod by DArkHekRoMaNT into the vanilla game Feature: Added Size3f Collectible.Dimensions property. Added InventoryBase.MaxContentDimensions. If set, will verify if given item fits inside the inventory. Feature: Added .debug normalview. Lets you look at vertex normals and does not discard transparent pixels. That can help figuring out when a model does not render correctly if the model is missing or the texture is missing. Feature: Added CompositeTexture.Alpha - lets you change the opacity of a texture in code (still consumes a texture atlas position however). Feature: Added CompositeShape.Scale - let's you resize shapes in blocktype/itemtype/etc. json definitions Feature: New callback method Collectible.OnCollected() Feature: scaleAdjust option added to shapes in blockType, itemType and entity JSONs. Default is 0; a negative decimal reduces the rendered size; a positive decimal increases the rendered size Refactor: Move block/dairy and block/meal textures into block/food/dairy and block/food/meal Refactor: Removed InventoryGeneric.IsEmpty there is already InventoryBase.Empty Refactor: all block/items with CombustibleProperties.SmeltingType Fire now require a kiln Refactor: "selectiveElements" requires full path for each element; element name can end with a wildcard Tweak/fixed: sapi.Event.ChunkColumnUnloaded and sapi.Event.MapRegionUnloaded are now also called on all loaded chunks/regions on server shutdown Tweak: Made generation taming rate configurable for the ai tasks idle, flee and melee tack (name tamingGenerations, default value 10) Tweak: Cave art now implemented through behavior ArtPigment, easy to mod Tweak: Added debug command /debug helddurability [arg] to set the durability of a held item Tweak: New EntityBehaviorMultiplyBase, has the food requirements but not much else; used for egg-layers Fixed: mapregion.SetModdata and mapregion.RemoveModdata now marks the region dirty for saving, so it actually writes those changes to disk Tweak: Added ability to modify block color texture source for world map (via textureCodeForBlockColor attribute) Tweak: AssetLocation.Domain: harmonise code, use supplied methods such as .Create and .BeginsWith where appropriate Tweak: Block.OnJsonTesselation parameters changed, old version deprecated Tweak: Removed obsolete method GameMath.FastSqrt Tweak: JsonObject.AsBool/AsInt/AsFloat/etc. did not set the default value properly if it couldn't parse the value from string Tweak: Block.DoEmitSideAo() and Block.DoEmitSaidAoByFlag() parameters changed Tweak: Added map region arg to MapRegionUnloaded event Tweak: Added Get/Set/RemoveModData methods to IMapRegion Tweak: Added 2 new tree gen properties: "bool noLog" and "NatFloat sizeVar" Tweak: Renamed physics entity property airDragFallingFactor to airDragFactor, but the old one will still work Tweak: Better error reporting and ability to set a domain for workitem basematerials so modders can have custom ingots in their own mod domain Tweak: MeshData.RenderPasses is now obsolete, use RenderPassesAndExtraBits instead Tweak: Added property sapi.WorldManager.CurrentPlayStyle Tweak: Added api.Shader.GetProgramByName() Tweak: Added SerializerUtil.DeserializeInto() Tweak: Added reinforcable attribute for blocks: default is false for soft blocks (changed e.g. for flowers and berry bushes in vanilla) or true for hard blocks Fixed: Various naming inconsistencies (wattlefence<->hewnfence, incorrect naming schemes, etc.) Fixed: Subsequent calls to RegisterBlockEntityType not overwriting the registered block entity Fixed: Non-contigous ore maps for default scaled ores. 1.5 scale ones are still broken I think. Fixed: Runtime texture reloading should no longer crash now and is notably faster Fixed: Some oddities when using shape { voxelizeTexture: true } Fixed: Several crashes/issues with the survival mod disabled Fixed: SaveGameCreated event never called Fixed: Various issues and crashes with the survival mod disabled Fixed: The playstyles of disabled mods now no longer show up in the Create World screen Fixed: Entity weight property not synced to client Fixed: Should finally fix mesh.data normals not working properly (mostly because facing.PackedNormal was borky) Fixed: Slot.CanTakeFrom() not passing the priority arg during stack merges from Collectible.TryMergeStacks Fixed: RequiredOnClient = false not loading mod on client Fixed: Logging special characters no longer crashes the game Fixed: Incorrect use of ConsumeQuantity property in barrel recipes Fixed: BlockFacing.FromNormal(vec3i) returned wrong values in some cases Fixed: Weird oddities with recipe groups in the handbook, seems to be related on how RichTextComponentBase.MarginTop and .PaddingLeft were handled, not they function a bit more intuitively I hope? might break other stuff. Fixed: block/item/entity json properties code, variantgroups, skipvariants, allowedvariands and enabled were not case insensetive Fixed: Should fix the melee attack and seek entity AI tasks crashing when hunting Entities that are not of type EntityAgent Fixed: Server exception when a json patch did not specify a file Game updates since v1.15-rc.4 (not included above) Tweak: Improved storm level particles visuals. Particularly sand spawns more particles now. Tweak: Disabled planting of bell pepper until we finished programming it Fixed: Able to pan claimed sand Fixed: Falling through blocks when jumping in spaces where the seraph cannot stand Fixed: Rare Sun SSAO graphics glitch Fixed: Wrong rendering of a saw placed on a tool rack Fixed: Might fix a crash issue when looking at pie placed by another player Fixed: Tool broken autorefill not playing tool breaking sounds and fully repairing tools Fixed: Picking up last slice of pie gave you a slice with 0 servings Fixed: Overlapping recipes for leather clothes now properly distinguished. Fixed: Overlapping shingle roofing blocks now properly distinguished. Fixed: Stained leather poncho now properly hides hair elements. View full record

Tracking down lag issues requires more info as explained here: https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php?title=Debugging#Debugging_performance_issues That sounds like server lag or server connectivity issues. Is that singleplayer or multiplayer?

thanks, this is fixed in rc.4

Also be sure to check and/or share your log files. Maybe your server crashes on exit or so

is there any pattern to it? any way to reproduce it?

thanks for the report, the jump fall through blocks issue should be fixed next release

I fixed this in v1.15.0-pre.7 - ladders can attach to half slabs from there on, this trader cart probably generated before that

that sounds like you installed 1.14 instead of 1.15
