tl;dr: How to turn off ground fog in 1.17?

In 1.16 we could turn off ground fog by deleting haze.json and removing the clearskym and cirrocumulusm sections from their respective jsons (as per Tyron in Discord, Dec 29th 2021). This does not seem to be working in 1.17.

Also of concern to me, although I've not encountered it yet, is the flashing lightening strikes. I saw one occur in Ashantin's video and it was glorious! However it may cause problems for me during my own gameplay. If so, is there a way to disable the flashing? Thank you.

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.

sounds good to me

and if the coconut fat/oil would substitute for animal fat does that mean it would also allow you to seal crock pots with it? if yes then im all for it

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.

The only two reasons I’m wanting to make a new world is that A; 1.16 made the area where my house is a constant rift drain, meaning I can’t stay home for too long otherwise I enter the Rust World and B; I didn’t know the setting for longer months existed when I first made the world.

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.

How would I go about getting a fresh new world that's the same as what I once had? I remember when I made the world I typed a phrase in, but I can't remember the phrase

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.

No matter where I go, I cannot walk for 3 minutes without hearing the sounds of a rift.

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.

I hope Tony is okay. 

In case it would be helpful, this is what you would type:

Quote

/worldconfig temporalStability true

Is it possible that you left the brackets in the command? They are supposed to designate an option, but are not included. Please forgive me if you already know this.

eta: dang, totally missed that Robert already mentioned the brackets. Sorry about that.

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

You're right, that is not how it is supposed to work. You might want to report this in the bug forum or on discord.

Beautiful poodle, btw.

Yes, can confirm cassiterite can be found by panning.

I dunno. I'm a very casual player, mostly spending my time wandering around looking at scenery and ruins. I haven't had any trouble coming up with the odd temporal gear or two just in the course of my meanderings.

Perhaps if you're focused on "gotta get that gear!", then it becomes a grind. Whereas if you just become immersed in experiencing the VS world, it happens naturally during the course of getting through the day/week.

...and it is a good idea to have an empty hotbar slot (your expanded inventory slots are not accessible while in creative mode).

Is there a way to just spawn in this temporal gear..

That can be done through the /gamemode command.

If it helps... I've learned to associate branches on the ground, blueberries, mushrooms, and horsetail as indicators that I'm entering wolf country.

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.

I have found 2 rye, but NO Other crops since starting

Some 'biomes' don't have much in the way of wild crops. Are you in a jungle?

I'm often surprised to find wild crops as I'm climbing around the hills since they can't always be seen from below.

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

So much has changed!

For one, the large map now retains the image of where you've been (instead of a radius around your current position)... and has player-chosen icons! Just right-click on a spot and a menu appears with options.

Raccoons will destroy those hard-won beehives (not as hard to find now though), and also consume ripe berries! I believe they spawn from trees, so be careful how you design your bee area.

The list goes on and on! I predict many happy hours of discovery in your future.

I thought psj had given up on it after only two vids but I just looked and he's uploaded another one so that's good.

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.

idk what you mean by specs and operating system

Operating systems would be Windows, Mac, or Linux. Which one and which version are you using?

Specs are specifications --things like video card, RAM and I don't know what else so I can't help you there. Here is a guide for finding it in Windows: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-check-your-computer-full-specifications-windows-10
