I believe that setting was removed in 1.17 stable: Tweak: Removed 'new seraph voices' setting, they are now always on as I believe most are at a bearable quality now.

Keep in mind that there are multiple ways of making bronze. Some bronze-making ingredients can be found from traders, especially commodities trader. Some bronze-making ingredients can be found when panning... even pieces of bronze armor that can be smelted down. I think those may only be in boney soil, but not sure. There are also bombs that can be used to harvest iron. You may be rich in bomb ingredients, or be able to get some from a trader.

Generally speaking, turnips, flax, and grains are found near each other and normally are in an open, flat-ish or hilled area. Is that patch of turnips on the edge of your explored area? They do not occur in forested areas. If you have forest floor, you will not find them. It sounds like you just need to explore a little further away to reach an open area. Are you playing with regular climate or are you playing patchy climate? I only play patchy, so maybe someone else can help advise on how to find what you need. If you get into the right area, be sure to get up high so that you can look out over the terrain (even a small hill will help). Often you will find food up on the hills too, that cannot be seen from below. But tall grass can hide a lot of stuff until you are right on top of it. Alternatively, throw down a few ladders to give yourself a better view.

There are two types of reed baskets: 1 costs 10 reeds and expands your player inventory when it is placed in its special position (one of the four slots to the right of the regular bar -- sorry that I do not know the correct terminology!). The other reed basket costs 24 reeds and creates a lidded chest that sits on the ground. For either type, if it is in your hot bar, it can be placed upon the ground by right clicking on the ground (or where ever) just like any other item that you are placing (it might be shift + right click). However, the one that increases player inventory can ONLY be placed if you remove it from it's special position. Another tip for food: carrying your torch in the off-hand makes you hungry faster.

Configuration settings are preferences, not cheats. Using commands in an existing world is just a way of changing your mind about the configuration settings (or enabling new configuration options that are part of an update). It took me a long time to understand that everyone has different views on what is cheating and what is not cheating. To some, death should end the game. Period. And they may say that any other option is cheating... but that isn't true. That is only their way of seeing it. It doesn't need to be your way of seeing it.

That's not quite correct. There is another setting that displays interaction help. Personally, I keep block info on all the time, but interaction help causes motion sickness in some situations (and It isn't noticeable until it is, and by then it is too late, haha).

Yes, please follow Streetwind's excellent step-by-step instructions. Leave the executable alone. You're only defining where you'd like the game to store the data. In my example, everything is in the install directory. For your example, your game is in the install directory (so leave it alone) and you want your data to be on an external drive (so define that absolute path). Best of luck! If you follow Streetwind's instructions, you should be golden.

I believe one way would be to define the path within the shortcut. Disclaimer: I'm not tech savvy; someone helped me with this for my own use and I believe you could modify it for what you're trying to accomplish. Personally, I keep my data within the game folder so that I can play different versions which you'll be able to see with my target path: Target: C:\Games\Vintagestory\VS17-rc\Vintagestory.exe --dataPath=C:\Games\Vintagestory\VS17-rc

Unless something has changed recently, doors have a very minimal effect on cellars, and light sources (candles, torches, lanterns) have no negative effect whatsoever. [eta: but sunlight does have a negative effect. It can help to have an airlock entrance (so that you have to pass through 2 doors), or have the cellar door facing away from sunlight] Placing a cellar below a garden (so that the garden serves as the ceiling) will not work. The garden block does not count as a full block.

I have that problem too. Have you considered disabling temporal storms? If no one has a good solution here, I'd recommend asking in the discord server.

Uh... except that coconut oil liquifies at room temperature, so it is not able to seal the crocks unless you live in a cold/cool environment or maybe at certain times of the year. In my own kitchen it is liquid during the warmest summer months and solid the rest of the time.

Same thing happens in rl when there are no predators. You may be seeing the results of having removed those 13 wolves. (meaning that hares may spawn in larger numbers to take into account that wolves will be thinning them down)

Could we please have a tree symbol for the map? I know I've asked this before, somewhere, but asking again 'for a friend.' I would also personally like a leaf symbol. Thank you. p.s. Also a longer time to post without having to log back in.

I believe the constant rift thing was fixed in a recent build. There should be a command that can be entered for longer months (check wiki or ask in Discord). So maybe you can salvage your old game.

I've been playing a seed from a youtuber. Playstyle, and realistic vs patchy climate, have made a big difference in whether I get the correct map or not. There are probably other settings that affect it too, but it sounds like we are both accepting defaults for most things. Aside from that, there have been some builds that change the starting world. One of those occurred in the late 1.15 series. It wasn't a huge difference (for me), mostly a trader moving position and a change in the ruins (and lots more brush and tall grass). Having said that, I believe there is also a way to copy your building to a new save, but I am not familiar with how that is done and have only seen someone mention it in discord.

I'm not experiencing that in my game (newly generated in 1.16.1-rc2), and I'm not seeing that in the LP that I'm following. Maybe you've had bad luck.

By default, I believe the save files are under Users/(yourusername)/AppData/Roaming/VintagestoryData/Saves However if you want multiple installs at some point, you can modify a shortcut to force saves into the game folder. This is what mine looks like: Target: C:\Games\Vintagestory\VS13\Vintagestory.exe --dataPath=C:\Games\Vintagestory\VS13

I don't have a solution, but I'm watching for an answer. We've had this problem as well. I was told that our internet router was probably blocking access. The default port is 42420, if that is any help.

Just to let you know that it is about 1 or 2am for the person that will be helping you, so you won't be wondering why no one responds for a little bit. It is possible that someone in the discord server may have a solution: Vintage Story discord

PSJ has said that he is enjoying VS so much that he cannot stop playing. He has an interesting discussion going on twitter about the increasingly short attention span of children/young adults and that being a driving force for what is successful on his channel. Too bad, as he is brilliant when it comes to immersive gameplay and storytelling.

I found a decorative chest (the Owl Chest) in a surface ruin... although I had to excavate the soil that was partially burying it, and the chest was in a basement room. It had a "diadem"

For one channel, it isn't that most people today have very short attention spans, it is (I believe) the mindset of the viewers. There is a very loud (and aggressive) group that has an intolerance for anything outside of their immediate interest. I doubt they would even look at the game before giving their expert opinion on how this is just MC. eta: and this is based on comments to an Ark Survival LP, where there was very hateful and aggressive demands to do MC
