District Colors Light Blue = Rural Yellow = Industrial Blue = Commercial Grey = Downtown Green = Residential Darker Colors of each above are lower density POI’s like remnants Red = Traders White = Wilderness Spawn Points in the forest can be seen when zoomed into the map. They are small X’s on the country roads and are near wilderness POI’s within 1km of a trader. New Points of Interest In order to complement our updated RWG system, our Level Design team has added a ton of new content with over 75 new POIs that will be coming to Version 1.0. Notable additions, improvements and efforts include: A high focus on new remnants enhancing performance and providing more diverse environments to explore with lighter zombie counts. A majority of the remnants were created for the downtown district which was low on these types. These efforts have helped significantly with performance. New high-tier locations have been introduced for players to explore and conquer. Haven Hotel (Tier 5) 7 Days Suites (Tier 5) Navezgane Athletics Complex (Tier 5) Grover High (Tier 5) Minotaur Theater (Tier 5) 6 – New Tier 4’s A new zombie spawning throttling triggering system has been added to the level editor and the level designers have made use of it to keep the higher count POIS challenging but running better.

Many more variants are coming, adding fresh visual elements to the game’s undead horde. The demolition zombie has received a complete model makeover, aligning with the newest generation of zombie models. This iconic foe now features an updated and more terrifying look. World Lighting Graphics Update The shader programming and technical art team have been busy adding in an overall improved lighting model that looks amazing. Improvements include: Overall more even and consistent lighting Over bright areas are toned down and areas that were too dark are easier to see Details in world and character models are more noticeable You can play now without a mining helmet or torch in dark areas Biome Spectrums and Storm Spectrums have been reworked to give the right amount of mood but provide more consistent lighting overall AO has been turned back on Shadows on Grass has been turned back on FSR has been added to the Graphics Options AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) uses cutting-edge open upscaling and advanced frame generation technologies to help boost your framerates in supported games and deliver amazing high-quality, high-performance gaming on virtually any hardware. Optimizations We have worked hard to optimize the game for all SKUs. Efforts to make the game run on the consoles has paid off. Many optimizations have been done including: A new POI placement algorithm has been implemented to keep cities more performant placing lighter weight POIS around more expensive heavier weight POIs A ton of lighter weight remnant POIs have been made to lighten the weight of cities and give more variety in POIs A new zombie spawning throttling triggering system has been added to the level editor and the level designers have made use of it to keep the higher count POIS challenging but running better. Many art assets have had reduced draw calls or simproved settings in Unity to make them run more preformant The Cutout atlas has been removed A new window tinting system makes window glass opaque until you get close. Occluding the interior or exterior improves performance (moderately), especially for skyscrapers. Game updated to Unity 2022 LTS with better Vulkan and DX12 support (Note: DX12 performance seems worse than DX11) New lighting update manager Ambient occlusion better handles large amounts of props Block entities (props) spawn over multiple frames Massive Progression Update We have given a lot of attention to overall progression and balance in version 1.0. Here are some of the more notable improvements: Traders give less dukes and have nerfed rewards that no longer break progression. Trader inventories offer sales staged items for sale that are more appropriate for your character’s level. The game is a little more crafting oriented than in the past, and legendary items are now craftable. The end result is the game feels much more balanced and even in a coop team players will find themselves still engaged on day 70, single players even further. Crafting Quality 6 crafting is back Tools/Weapons/Armor Requires new Legendary Parts Traders/Biome order Rekt – Forest Jen – Burnt Bob – Desert Hugh – Snow Joel – Wasteland Quests Quest Progression has been improved so you get higher Tier Quests offered with each trader and can roll back to lower tiers if you want to Armor Quality determines perk level Basic Example – Q1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50% Legendary Crafting We have added new Legendary Parts which can be acquired in high end loot chests, and higher Trader rewards With these player can craft Legendary Q6 weapons, tools, and armor Dew Collector Overhaul The Dew Collector has been reworked. It now supports 3 workstation tools, one of which is a water filter. This change makes the Dew Collector available early in game, but it collects murky water without having the filter installed. Enhanced Gore System Along with the new Zombie variants comes the new and improved Dismemberment Gore System, ensuring consistent dismemberment across zombie types, and as a bonus, there are also brand-new blood splatter particles to complete the visceral experience of combat. With Version 1.0, the entire zombie lineup has been upgraded with new gore pieces, including a complete overhaul of recently updated zombies from past Alphas. This ensures all zombies are consistent with the latest technology, enhancing the game’s visual impact and immersion. Updated Road Decals Say goodbye to one of our last remaining legacy assets, our original Road Decals. They’ve been revamped, giving them a modern face-lift to help make the roads and lots of Navezgane County feel more lived in and legitimate. Players can now enjoy enhanced realism with updated road decals, featuring more detailed and immersive trash and debris scattered on the roads. This update adds another layer of authenticity to the game environment, making the post-apocalyptic world feel more lived-in and engaging. Twitch Integration Update The latest update introduces exciting new features for Twitch integration: Small Zombies: A new command that shrinks down the size of zombies, adding a fun and challenging twist to gameplay. On Screen Extension: Interactive Twitch features are now displayed directly on screen, enhancing the viewer and streamer experience. These features provide more interactive and engaging content for both players and their audiences. New World Borders The game now features layered world borders, replacing the old radiation zones. The very outer layer is a no-go zone, preventing players from walking off the map. Just inside this is a no-build zone, ensuring players cannot build too close to the edge. As players approach the border, the area fogs up, providing a clear visual cue. This system allows more Points of Interest (POIs) to spawn near the map’s edges, increasing the playable area while communicating to the player you can’t go that way. New Upgradeable Player Chests Introducing player writeable storage boxes! Start with a basic wooden box, which can be upgraded to iron, and eventually to steel. Each upgrade increases the storage capacity, providing more space for your items. Additionally, these chests feature writeable areas that display custom text, allowing for easy organization and labeling of your stored goods. Up to three lines of copy can be added. Happy chest placing, survivors! Environment Art Update The environment team has been busy with many new art updates that will further immerse you for 1.0 experience including: New movie theater seats, new soda and drink vending machines, new TV studio camera, new mini beverage coolers, new food and candy posters, new retro electric and gas signs, new neon signs, new camping tents, new chemistry set, new modular iron wrought fence set with destructive states. Dishong tower tribute plaque, zombie spawner tombstone, swing set model, commercial food trash can, new ceiling lights, new mailboxes, new electric fuse boxes, new shipping crane New plants and vegetation such as: Hops plant, Pumpkins and coffee plants Decorative assets such as: office desk pictures, trophies, business wall signs Art updates to old assets such as: updated spinning blade trap, updated recycling pallets (cans, cardboard paper), updated rocks and boulders, updated commercial dumpster, updated bathroom and kitchen faucets, updated barbed wire fences. Last but not least, a major optimization pass on almost all of the environmental art props to get ready for console. Including shader and texture optimizations, as well as mesh optimizations to improve game performance. Block Shape Updates The environment Art team has been busy with many new block shapes to build with. 162 new shapes added to fill in missing shapes to roofs, railings, poles, stairs, and many more. A few notable ones include: Wedge Stairs Railing Left, Right, Tip Left, and Tip Right Wedge Stairs Railing Metal Left, Right, Tip Left, and Tip Right 6m and 8m long ramp sets Wedge60 Windows set Broken and Empty versions of all Bulletproof Windows (POI’s) Also note the addition of a new Radial Menu option: Copy Shape And Rotation Enhanced Audio Sharpen your ears, survivors! The latest update includes enhanced audio features: Updated Ambient Stingers: More dynamic and immersive ambient sounds. Variety of Bird Chirps: A larger variety of bird sounds to enrich the environment. Inventory management sounds: Unique sounds for moving various item groups in your backpack Enhanced Particle VFX We have enhanced many of the particle effects to be better, more realistic and performant. The latest update includes: All new blood and dismemberment VFX particles New block destruction and block physics VFX particles New Explosion VFX particles New Shading system for smoke and fire New Vehicle VFX including rigid body destruction Trader VO overhaul We have cast 5 unique voice actors and recorded over 1200 unique Voice Over lines to bring new life, story, responses and funny quips to the five traders in the game. Don’t worry your favorites Trader Rekt and Trader Jen still have the same actors but all new lines and new functionality. New functionality includes: All traders now have their own unique voice Traders have more than 200 lines each with story bits and strong hints to relations between traders Subtitles will be translated to all supported languages Gamepad Improvements A ton of work has gone into improving Gamepad Support to make it control better, more intuitive and have native console features including: New UI navigation system that removes the virtual cursor Overhauled modern camera controls that are easier to use and can be extensively customized New aim assist systems for gamepads to aid with quicker targeting when aiming a weapon or swinging a melee weapon, and slowing the camera when passing over small interactable objects Greatly expanded gamepad settings in a new controller options menu including: Joystick layout options Separated X and Y camera sensitivity Look acceleration Deadzone adjustments Rumble strength Aim assist toggle Full gamepad remapping support for on foot and vehicle controls New controls and shortcuts when using a gamepad, including: Directly access items on your toolbelt via radial menu by holding either of the toolbelt selection buttons. Instantly swap to your previously equipped item with the new quick swap button Easier sprinting with tap or hold controls Expanded controller vibration support that responds to actions triggered by the player and what’s happening around them Support for DualSense controller features including: Track time of day, weather and blood moons on the light bar Trigger effects when using certain items and weapons Modding Notes Game updated to Unity 2022.3.29f1 Updated HarmonyX to 2.13.0 ModInfo: Now requires ModInfo in V2 format, also properties “Name” and “DisplayName” no longer optional as announced in Alpha 21 XML parsing now supports “conditional” blocks: Allows switching between different XML blocks based on conditions like game version, whether a certain mod is loaded etc Can be evaluated once by the host when loading the XMLs so host and every client will have the same resulting XML or by each game instance separately, so that host and every client can have different effects, e.g. when based on a GamePref Also supported on the top level of patch XMLs: These are always applied during XML loading Detailed documentation will be added to the game’s wiki XML patches now feature a new instruction “include” which allows including another XML in place, e.g. to split up large XMLs into smaller pieces or – combined with the usage of conditional blocks – include different XML based on other conditions New XML “events.xml”: Allows defining date based events (like christmas, halloween etc) and use them with conditional XML blocks – have the pipe baton automatically use a candy cane shiv model during christmas season or pumpkins use a halloween based model during that time Z-Selection box for POI or world building now shows the current selection size Updated POI properties windows to reflect the current POI features Debugging: Debug views (F3) now remember the selected elements CVar filter box can no longer have the input focus when the mouse cursor is not enabled – avoids accidentally overwriting your filter while running around FPS graph and network monitor available in releases Game assembly gets fully publicized members for easier code modding – each member that has changed access level gets an attribute “PublicizedFrom” attached that will tell you the original accessibility level. Accessing originally not public stuff is still meant to be a last resort if other approaches fail. New BlockCompositeTileEntity with respective TileEntityComposite This is a generic TileEntity (TE) block which allows selecting which features it should have from XML (“compositing”) Currently these features are supported: Lockable: The TE can be locked LockPickable: Players can pick the lock on the TE (only usable in combination with Lockable) Signable: The TE can be written on. The prefab used for the TE will have to have properly set up TextMeshes – at least one but it supports as many as desired Storage: The TE will have container features These TE properly support up/downgrading, so for example a block that has Signable can upgrade to a block that supports Storage and Signable and keep its text Adding new features does not require enumeration modifications so should be easier going forward to add custom TE features from mods Example usage of these features can be seen on the new player storage blocks “cntWoodWritableCrate” and similar File lookup prioritizes files in user data (e.g. LocalPrefabs) over mods New game argument “-newprefabsmod=somemod” allows defining a mod in which new prefabs get stored instead of going to “LocalPrefabs”. Mod name is given by its internal name from its “ModInfo.xml”, not the folder name XUi changes: Generic “repeat_content” attribute support for all views. For non-grid views the attribute “repeat_count” specifies the number of clones Repeated elements automatically get fed with additional template parameters that can be used with template bindings (“${…}”): For every parent view: “repeat_count” giving the number of elements as specified by “repeat_count” attribute and “repeat_i” incrementing by one for each created element, starting at 0 Additionally for grid views only: “repeat_col” and “repeat_row” giving the column and row the element will be in the grid – assuming the grid dimensions do not change later on New attribute “disabled_tooltip_key” lets you define a tooltip that gets shown when hovering a disabled view New attribute “force_hide” allows keeping a view invisible New attributes for controller navigation: “use_selection_box”: Should controller navigation show an outline around the selected view “gamepad_selectable”: View can be selected with a controller “nav_up”, “nav_down”, “nav_left”, “nav_right”: Manual override which view to select when pressing the respective direction on a controller Texture views now support: Color tinting (“color” attribute) and for keeping the texture’s aspect ratio (attribute “original_aspect_ratio”) XML “extends” now allow excluding specified subclasses (like “UpgradeBlock” in blocks) so that all its children are actually excluded Changes to quests should no longer kill savegames’ character files – though the affected quests will lose their details in the quest log Plants tick correctly when placed on the same position as another plant was growing before – before the timer would potentially not reset thus accumulating the old and new growth times Perks can now have LevelRequirements for individual levels only instead of being required to be specified for all levels if done for at least one “Inventory.PUBLIC_SLOTS” is changed to be targeted by mods, making it easier to implement custom toolbelt sizes. Also a new property “SHIFT_KEY_SLOT_OFFSET” has been added that allows specifying which slots are meant to be targeted when using Shift + slot hotkey World Editor: Previews of POI now match the actual state when rotating them TFP News Screen We have moved the old shared menu news screen into a new skippable in-game News screen that has graphics and link support for all formats. This will be used to inform players on new patch updates and other TFP news. Server Administration Changes to serverconfig.xml: Setting “SaveGameFolder” has been removed. It is now always based on the “UserDataFolder” New setting “IgnoreEOSSanctions”: Allows ignoring EOS sanctions when players want to join servers.

Alpha Exodus: Leaving Early Access The Fun Pimps are happy to announce 7 Days is leaving Early Access! With the launch of the next update, we’re moving officially to 1.0 for 7 Days to Die. TFP Co-Founder Richard Huenink details the move in this Video. He’ll talk about our decision to leave early access, the tentative launch dates for PC and Console Alpha 22 (Now 1.0), the roadmap of planned future updates and features ahead for all platforms, and the games new pricing. ALPHA EXODUS: The Road to 1.0 (Video) VERSION 1.0 GAMEPLAY TRAILER Have more questions? Look at our comprehensive FAQ below! ALPHA EXODUS FAQ 1.0 LAUNCH Q: Why release now? A: We have been developing 7 Days for nearly 12 years and have had over twenty large scale early access releases that have brought the game to a significantly different place and quality than where it began. Our team feels satisfied with our efforts, especially with the significant overall progress, art quality and optimizations that have gone into the current release slated for all PC and Consoles and are ready for launch. We are now turning our focus to other ways we can support ALL versions of the game – through our planned roadmap, free updates, and beyond! The Fun Pimps have and will continue to support 7 Days to Die development with a majority of their resources. Q: Why are some features in the road map? A: We have put significant work into these systems but some still have a ways to go to be ready for prime time. Rather than keep 7 Days to Die in further Alphas, we think it’s time to leave early access and officially announce our 1.0 launch, future plans and commit to the deadlines on these features. With that said, supporting and keeping parity with PC, PS5, and Xbox X/S Series will be our top priority. Q: So what does this mean for A22 and other Alpha builds? A: Alpha build updates that were detailed or talked about prior to this news are going to become the major planned updates shown in the road map. The naming convention will reset to “Version 1.0” and so forth. Q: Will there still be early release/experimental builds? A: Yes, we still release experimental builds on Steam before going stable. Stable releases will go to console and other PC markets after they are ready. Q: Will I still be able to access older alphas of the game? A: Yes we will continue to support this on Steam as the Steam policies permit. This will not be a feature in other platforms. Q: What about the Kickstarter stretch goals? A: We’re working on completing all stretch goals. As mentioned in the Kickstarter, some of these features will come post-launch. We are focused on ensuring all Kickstarter backers will receive the promised content. Q: What was the 7 Days to Die “Apocalypse Edition”? A: This was a tentative name we were considering for the console 1.0 release of the game. But, after working with Microsoft and Sony, we thought the best way to avoid brand confusion was to call it the console edition. We are scrapping “Apocalypse Edition” at this time to hopefully avoid confusion. Q: Is there a roadmap for post-release? A: Yes! You can view it below. Once 1.0 Launches, we’ll be updating the image with a more detailed look at what’s coming and when. PRICE CHANGE Q: Will there be a price raise? A: Yes, at launch of 1.0 stable the standard retail price of the game from that point forward will increase to $44.99 on all platforms and storefronts. We are offering a major Last Chance weeklong deal sale on Steam from April 22 to April 29, 2024 so that people will have one last chance to get the game before the price increases. Q: What will the price increase mean for my current PC/Steam copy of 7 Days to Die? A: Absolutely nothing! Your PC/Steam copy of 7 Days to Die is still yours, and nothing will change besides it coming out of early access with a large free update and all future free updates. We appreciate your early and continued support of our title, and hope you enjoy the full launch. Users who did not purchase the title before the pricing increase will, of course, have to buy the game at the new retail price point (or during any of our discount periods on Steam in the future!) Q: Why increase the cost? A: We feel as though the quality standard of the game has gone up significantly from when the initial price was set over 8 years ago along with over a decade of content and improvements. We’ve looked at how others have handled leaving early access, and this is a common practice. We in particular want the price of the PC version to have parity with the Console version. We do not wish to force any current users to spend more money to play the game they’ve always supported. However, new users should see the value the game offers reflected in the cost, and we hope that continued support might fund future endeavors in expanding the 7 Days to Die game even further – DLCs, Expansions, and continued free updates (including everything listed in the Road Map)! CONSOLE VERSION Q: What does 1.0 Mean for a Console Release? A: We are pleased to announce that 1.0 will be the version that the console launches on. While we currently are working out the exact release date, we’re aiming for it to release only a few weeks after the launch of PC 1.0 Stable. Q: Will the Console Version have Crossplay? A: While it will not be ready for the 1.0 Release, we are pleased to report that Crossplay connections already work with PC, PS5 and Xbox Series S/X. However, we are waiting for certification approval with Microsoft and Sony. We intend to have more information in the future, and hope for it to be released with Update 1’s launch (tentatively scheduled for Q4 2024). Q: What about the old Console version? A: Due to the significant technical differences between old and current console hardware, we will not be upgrading the legacy version. Legacy owners will have to buy the new title. However, we are working closely with Sony and Microsoft to provide a discount to digital legacy owners on their purchase of the new console edition. We made the decision early on to focus on a ‘new’ version of the game that is unified with our PC version, and our efforts to update the game post-launch will be entirely focused on that version. Q: What about the old Console version’s availability? A: Due to product and branding confusion, we will be delisting the legacy console version from digital storefronts when the new version releases. You will still be able to play your old copy if you own it, but no future purchases of the legacy edition will be possible. Q: Will I be able to use my old saves on the new version? A: No. You will, of course, be able to continue to use your old saves on the Legacy version if it is installed, but saves will not carry over as they are not compatible with the numerous new changes. Q: Will the new Console Edition get the same updates this time? A: Yes! Our plan is to give the console edition owners every free update that the PC version gets, keeping parity with PC for Crossplay. If a feature is not technically possible due to hardware restrictions, or is otherwise restricted by certification requirements set by Microsoft or Sony, it will not make it to the console edition. We will outline any future updates if they will be limited or not make it to the console edition. Q: Will the Console Edition get modding support? A: We are discussing this, but there are no concrete plans yet. We are looking into how this might be achieved while maintaining performance on the console edition. Q: Will the Console Edition support local splitscreen? A: No. Due to technical limitations and memory restrictions, this feature is not currently possible on the Console Edition. Q: Are there any plans for future consoles/ports? A: We have no plans to announce at this time. We are still looking into other platforms. Q: Will there be a physical edition of the game? A: At launch, the game will be digital only. We have no plans to announce at this time, but may look into this in the future. Q: Will there be any limitations or differences between Console Edition and PC on launch? A: Console Edition will have some limitations, including: Random Gen: The Console Edition will launch with a collection of pregenerated maps and the Navezgane experience. However, Random Gen will come in a patch soon after launch. Level/Prefab Editor and World Editor: The console edition will not launch with the level or world editor.. Internet Connection/Server Connection: At launch, the console edition will be restricted to peer-to-peer games on the same platform. As mentioned in the Crossplay section above, we intend to release Crossplay in Update 1, barring any certification requirements or technical hurdles. Other Differences: There will be a document in the future that details any other specific differences in performance, online capabilities, hosting features and more. UPDATE (4/22): Q: What does this mean for Gamepass? A: 7 Days to Die will be leaving Gamepass by the end of April. At this time, there are no plans to enter back into Gamepass. However, we are exploring all future avenues with Microsoft. Q: Save incompatibility between console versions? Also, will there still be Save incompatibility between patches? A: Due to the technical architecture of 7 Days to Die’s game engine, users will have to start a new game with each major update. Eventually, this will not be the case. Thank You from All The Fun Pimps 7 Days to Die has been an incredible journey for our Team over the last 12 years, and for our fans who have been with us since the beginning. This game would not be possible without the continued support of our incredible community who have stood by us for over a decade, and we thank you all for that. We will continue to support 7 Days to Die, because this game is still our team’s greatest passion. TFP will continue to make content, add new features and grow this Franchise… because it’s our favorite game too! We look forward to a bright future with many exciting releases! Thank you for all of the support you have given us over the years! Click Here To Visit 7daystodie.com

Hey Survivors, It has been a while since our last major release, December 2021 to be exact. For a year and a half, our growing team has been working hard to bring you Alpha 21. This Alpha delivers more polish, optimizations, updates, quality-of-life improvements, new content, new features, and new gameplay systems than ever before. We say it every Alpha, and we will say it again, this is the biggest and baddest version of the game to date. If you have never played 7 Days to Die or you have not played it for a while, you’re going to want to check out Alpha 21. Pushing hard towards the Gold Version, this impressive mountain of work could only be achieved by the lengthy, iterative, development style we have gone through. The Fun Pimps dream big and know that nothing of this magnitude comes overnight. Building on an already solid foundation, this update sets the bar even higher for the sandbox, survival, simulation, RPG game genre. We are very proud of the work, passion, and dedication our team has poured into 7 Days to Die and we hope you enjoy Alpha 21 as much as we have. Please find our Announcement for A21 Experimental and bug report instructions here. The Fun Pimps Team Environment Art The environment team has been heavily focused on the design, production, and implementation of hundreds of new high definition and physically based assets to help the world feel more believable and immersive. Additionally, new and updated shaders add a finishing touch to the environments. Below are a few categories of props that have been updated. Ramp Kits Platform Kits Wall Kits Trader Location Props Military Props Biohazard Props Nature Props Doors Signs Industrial Props Commercial Props Church Props Medical Props Construction Props Furniture Lighting Props Static Vehicle Props Wall art Player Vending Machine Workbench Workstation Forge Workstation Chemistry Workstation Campfire Workstation Hero Loot Containers Graphic Design Art The graphic design team has been crafting a large amount of high quality graphical elements that breathe life and storytelling into the world. Keep and eye out for these graphic elements listed below. Food Labels and Posters Calendars Wall Art Schematics Tractor Logo Trader Flag White River Flag Liquor Packaging Magazines Workstation Elements New Doors Introducing an exciting range of new doors, including the much-anticipated double doors! These numerous additions bring a level of detail to in-game locations that were previously unimaginable. Moreover, players can now enjoy updated craftable door options, expanding their repertoire of door types to choose from. As an innovative feature, doors gradually deteriorate as they sustain damage, resulting in visible holes that can be utilized for shooting or melee attacks. Be cautious, though, as certain doors may develop holes large enough to pass through without being completely destroyed. Exercise caution and strategize accordingly! Loot Container Changes When emptied, smaller containers such as trash bags, backpacks, and bird nests will now be destroyed. On the other hand, larger containers like clothing racks, desks, filing cabinets, and gun safes will transition to an open state once they have been emptied. This update brings a more realistic and immersive experience, as players can observe the visual representation of empty containers while navigating the game world. World Water We’ve made visual improvements to prevent water from clipping through semi-solid block shapes, such as thin or rounded wall segments. Under the hood we’ve overhauled water simulation to improve performance, reduce networking traffic, and provide more consistent and natural flow behavior, particularly with respect to large bodies of water such as lakes and rivers. Hazards The game has received an exciting update with the addition of a hazard system. This latest release introduces flame hazards that must be deactivated within specific locations in order to advance on your path. While active, these hazards will unleash intense fire damage upon anyone or anything that dares to approach too closely. Gore More zombies now utilize the new gore system. New & Overhauled Locations Every Point of Interest (POI) in the game has been improved with the massive amount of new art props and 692 new shapes added to Alpha 21. It is a complete overhaul of the art and gameplay experienced in each location. All Trader locations have been entirely reworked with custom art There are over 75+ pure new questable POIs Most POIs (Nearly 400) now support the new Infestation Quest type New parts & RWG features – Roadside POI spawns Navezgane has gotten a quite a bit of updates Terrain updates New POIs added perishton_city_blk_01 through 05 (Overhauled Tiles) perishton_city_blk_06 (New Tile) perishton_tunnel_01 & 02 (New Remnant) departure_city_blk_plaza (Overhauled Remnant) More than 200 POIs have been added or completely overhauled. And every POI in the game has been updated with new Art and Shapes: Some notable POIs include: Tier 5 POI’s apartments_02 – “Vanity Tower” (New) factory_01 – “Shamway Factory” (Overhauled) house_modern_23 “Dr. Karen Higashi Residence” (Overhauled to Tier 5) hospital_01 (Overhauled) installation_red_mesa (Overhauled to Tier 5) nursing_home_01 – “The Last Sunset Nursing Home” (New) prison_01 – “Navezgane Corrections” (New) prison_02 – “Navezgane County Jail” (New) Tier 4 POI’s bowling_alley_01 “Pineballs Bowling” (New) downtown_strip_04 – “Joe’s Junction” (Overhauled to Tier 4) house_modern_24 “Jeffelon Zuckergates Estate” (New) junkyard_01 “Ecotrash Recycling Center” (New) roadside_checkpoint_01 “NDC Checkpoint One” (New) roadside_checkpoint_03 “NDC Checkpoint Three” (New) roadside_checkpoint_04 “NDC Checkpoint Four” (New) roadside_checkpoint_05 “NDC Checkpoint Five” (New) utility_electrical_co_02 – “Hybrid Energy” (New) Tier 3 POI’s apartments_03 – “The Bend Apartments” (New) army_camp_04 – “Fort Razor” (New) bowling_alley_02 “Ballzstrike Bowling” (New) commercial_strip_03 – “Vick Garrison’s Pedipawn” (New) countrytown_business_11 – “Midway Clinic” (New) countrytown_business_12 – “Jim & Tim’s Bullets and Booze” (New) country_junkyard_02 – “Atlas Metal Co.” (New) commercial_strip_05 – “Elzner’s Emporium” (New) downtown_strip_12 – “NFD Downtown HQ” (New) fastfood_06 – “The Burgcaneer” (New) gas_station_12 “Pass N Gass Plaza” (New) house_modern_26 (New) motel_04 “Greg’s Motel” (New) office_05 – “Tri-Med Group” (New) office_06 – “Abandoned Office Building” (New) police_station_03 “NPD 3rd Div.” (New) post_office_02 “Post Office #2” (New) radio_station_01 “KZL Radio Station” (New) ranger_station_01 – “Ranger Station Alpha” (Overhauled) ranger_station_07 “Ranger Station Golf” (Overhauled) rest_area_05 “The Road Gentleman Truck Stop” (New) roadside_checkpoint_02 “NDC Checkpoint Two” (New) school_daycare_02 “Poopy Pants City Daycare” (New) store_discount_01 “Three Dollar Store” (New) utility_substation_01 “Hybrid Energy Substation #1 (New) warehouse_08 “Johnson’s Warehouses” (New) weigh_station_01 “Weston Weigh Station” (New) house_modern_27 “Almeida Residence” (New) Diner_07 “Navezgane Falls Diner” (New) House_modern_28 “Pantelli Residence” (New) House_construction_05 “Uninhabited Mansion” (New) Tier 2 POI’s apartments_04 – “The Budget Borrows” (New) bank_01 – “Piggy Bank” (Overhauled) cabin_13 “The Gladue Residence” (Overhauled) cabin_17 “The Engall’s Residence” (New) cabin_18 “Our Best Moments” (New) commercial_strip_04 – “Smorgasbord Square” (New) downtown_building_04 – “Blaze & Burns Offices” (New) downtown_building_05 – “Bombshell News” (New) downtown_parking_lot_01 – “Downtown Evacuation Point” (New) farm_14 – “Hersh Farm” (New Tier 2) fastfood_07 – “NEW Mamma Pizza” (New) house_burnt_02 (Overhauled) house_modular_04 – “The Wagner Residence” (Overhauled) house_old_tudor_04 – “R.

These POI names will also appear on the quest text at the trader. When you enter a Biome, you will see the biome difficulty represented by the number of orange skulls. Forest – 0 Burnt (Navezgane Only) – 0.5 Desert – 1 Snow – 1.5 Wasteland – 2 The overall difficulty of the POI and Biome is represented by the number of Red and Orange skulls combined. With this in mind, the same POI in the wasteland will be more difficult and have higher game staged enemies and loot than the same POI in the forest. We also have fixed a bug with party game staging. Parties now work as designed and have balanced game staging to provide a better scaled challenge. POI Localization Points of interest (POIs) have undergone localization, receiving easily understandable and relatable names. These new names are not only incorporated into the quest system, but are also displayed on the upper right corner of the screen, above the Quest and Recipe Tracker. Furthermore, if you backed the Kickstarter campaign and pledged for location naming, you will now have the privilege of having a POI named after you. Infestation Quests We have added a new quest type we call Infestation which starts at Tier 2. The system takes a supported POI and adds a +1 to its Tier. In an Infestation Quest, the zombie counts are multiplied to create a greater challenge. At the end, it will reward you with a special loot box, almost always found in the loot room. This left Tier 5 POIs with infestation in a bit of a pickle. Tier 5 POIs as an Infestation Quest, can now be found as Tier 6 difficulty POIs. Random World Generation Update Random World Generation (RWG) has gone through the biggest iterative updates to date. We have learned something from every previous version we have done so far. It’s not easy to create something nobody has done before, but we are committed to creating Random Generated Worlds better than anyone on the planet and we think you will agree when you play the latest Alpha 21 Random Gen. The latest release focuses on improving RWG speed, visuals, POI placement, and adding new features to enhance the player experience and addressing several bugs. Many notable improvements include: RWG creation speed has been greatly improved. Generation speeds up to 4 to 5 times faster than before have been seen in some cases. Merging highways between gateway tiles and township rural tiles has been added A new scoring system for prefab pick ordering, xml entries to help control overall placement, spawn weights, and min max counts ensure POI’s don’t repeat too often. Country Tiles have been added which give the rural areas more believable surrounds for POIS to spawn Road smoothing has been greatly improved. A new street tile system that uses an overworld grid to allow for more concise placement of wilderness, towns, and highways. A “New Game” button has been added to the Advanced Generation screen to allow players to immediately play the map they have generated without having to remember the map name. Chunk Reset System We’ve added a new advanced game option called “Chunk Reset Time”. Enabling this setting will cause chunks to be reset to their original states when left unvisited for a specified in-game duration. Land claims, bedrolls, and other important player-owned objects such as backpacks and vehicles will prevent nearby chunks from being reset; so you don’t have to worry about your home base disappearing, or logging in to find your 4×4 exchanged for a tree which regrew in its place. However, loot containers and workstations which are not within a protected area can be reset, so players who use this feature must be mindful of where they store their valuables. In effect, this feature allows previously-visited locations to respawn their loot and recover from destruction whilst the player is away. It also helps to reduce save sizes by clearing out stored data for the reset chunks until they’re revisited. The setting is disabled by default, but can be configured at will in the Advanced tab of the New Game and Continue Game menus. Survival Rebalance To enhance the survival experience, water collection has been rebalanced by removing empty jars and cans. Boiled water now requires a cooking pot to craft in the campfire. Most “clean” water and drinks have been extremely lowered in loot. A new Dew Collector workstation has been added to provide clean drinking water. Crafted in the player backpack, players will need to visit a trader to obtain a key component: a water filter. Water is slowly accumulated over time at a rate of approximately 3 jars every 24 game hours. Players can place multiple Dew Collectors DewCollectors must have a clear view of the sky. Bars and other “see-through” shapes are acceptable to be placed above. Drink Vending machines have had quantities increased including specialized drinks. Due to water used in crafting, glue has been increased in loot, quest rewards, and trader inventories. Crafting Skills System Crafting unlocks have been moved out of the Perks System and into a new Crafting Skills System. Players will need to read various quantities of Crafting Skill Magazines in order to progress through the crafting tiers. These magazines are found in loot containers, zombie loot bags, air drops, given as quest rewards, or sold by the traders. The Crafting Skills System solves two issues: 1. Players won’t be able to skip the progression of tool and weapon tiers. Previously, players could max out a perk’s crafting quality unlock with primitive tools and weapons and then instantly craft higher tiers once the materials were found or unlocked. A good example of this would be a stone ax that could be crafted at quality 5, but then iron and steel pickaxes could be crafted at that same quality level. 2. Removes the crafting unlocks from perk classes Players are no longer required to perk into various classes to obtain the unlocks. All crafting skills can be unlocked by all players. The unlocks are removed from perks, however, each level of a perk will give a probability boost to certain magazines. An example would be the perk Boomstick giving a boost to finding more of the Shotgun Weekly magazines. Boomstick will also boost shotguns, shotgun parts, and the various types of shotgun ammo found in loot. Perk Overhaul With crafting unlocks moving to the new Crafting Skills System, perks have been overhauled to be more streamlined for each class. Sexual Tyrannosaurus has been moved to each weapon perk. Players no longer have to perk into Strength to get the stamina benefits of ole Sexy T. Want better stamina with clubs? Put perk points into Pummel Pete and keep from getting winded too soon. Flurry of Blows has been moved into each Attribute as a new perk. Perception: Quick and Perceptive – Increases the attack speed of spears Strength: Big and Fast – Increases the attack speed of clubs and sledges Fortitude: Lightning Hands – Increases the attack speed of fists and fist weapons Agility: Whirlwind – Increases the attack speed of knives Intellect: Calculated Attack – Increases the attack speed of batons Physician perk has gained the ability to treat sprains and give more XP when using healing items. Dismemberment gets a boost with batons on level 4 while level 5 has a chance to instantly kill the target with a stun baton. Master Chef allows players to cook faster with each level. Lock Picking moved to Intellect Grease Monkey grants the ability to use fewer repair kits when repairing vehicles Zombies and animals are now killed nearly instantly when hit by a vehicle, but the vehicle takes more damage than previous versions. Vehicles also take more damage when hitting objects or taking hard landings. Perk Book Reworks Spear Hunter Vol 3 changed from Steel Spear Unlock to Bleeding Damage Spears have a 25% chance to cause bleeding damage. Spear Hunter Vol 4 changed from Strong Arm to Kill Move Power attacks do 50% more damage to downed targets. Spear Hunter Vol 6 changed from Punctured Lung to Penetrating Shaft Power attacks now penetrate and damage multiple enemies. Spear Hunter Complete Primal Kill: Kills with spears refill your stamina. Automatic Weapons Vol 7 changed from M60 Unlock to Hip Fire Aiming from the hip with greater accuracy can save your ass in close quarters situations. Batter Up Vol 2 changed from Gear to Stealing Bases Sprinting with a club drawn in combat uses 20% less stamina. Batter Up Vol 6 changed from Bat Unlock to Foul Balls Power attacks with clubs have a 20% chance to ragdoll enemies. The Great Heist Vol 3 changed from Timed Charges Unlock to Gold Rush Find 10% more dukes and old cash The Great Heist Complete Find 20% more lockpicks in loot Art of Mining Vol 7 changed from Mining Helmet Unlock to Damage Mining tools do 10% more block damage. Perception and Spear Overhaul It is mind blowing how powerful Rifles are now…literally. Pop zombie heads with ease with a boost to head shots when using the pipe, hunting, lever action, and sniper rifles. The spear has gotten a rework. After much consideration, we decided to make it work like other weapons and exchanged the throw for a power attack. This makes the spear a much better sneak attack weapon and players do not have to worry about losing their fully modded spear when thrown. With the new door damage, spears are the best melee weapons for poking through the holes into pesky zombie heads. Recipe Tracker Having trouble remembering that recipe? Well, in Alpha 21, players can track recipes while out collecting resources. Items are tracked in a list shown in the upper right hand side of the screen. When the correct quantities are collected, the items will be highlighted in green. When all items are collected, a tool belt message will appear letting you know the item can be crafted. Crafting Quality Selection It’s likely that you’ve encountered a common problem: after gathering the necessary materials and components to craft your tool or weapon, you’ve invested additional points into the relevant skill, only to discover that the newly unlocked quality requires more materials than you currently possess. However, this predicament is no longer a concern, as you now have the ability to choose the desired quality of the crafted item, granting you control over the amount of materials invested. Loot Balancing Considerable attention has been devoted to achieving balance in various aspects of the game. This includes fine-tuning the availability of food and water, ensuring quest rewards are appropriately balanced, refining trader inventories to offer a fair selection of items, and the distribution of crafting skill magazines. Starter Quest The introductory quest has undergone simplification to provide a step-by-step breakdown of the initial stages of the game. Through user-friendly instructions and onscreen assistance, both novice players and seasoned veterans will be effortlessly guided to swiftly accomplish the initial milestones of their gaming experience. HUD-less Mode For those looking for a more immersive gameplay, players can now hide the HUD by pressing F7 one time. This mode will now allow players to remove the HUD, but still be able to interact with doors, loot containers, vehicles, and more. Pressing F7 again will change to “picture” mode that hides ALL HUD elements. Pressing F7 a third time will go back to default. Spawn Near Backpack In this latest update, an exciting new feature has been introduced for respawning after death. With an active bedroll, players now have the choice to respawn in close proximity to the location where their backpack is found. This convenient option enables players to swiftly retrieve their lost loot without the need to place a new bedroll, as the primary purpose of bedrolls was not originally intended for this particular function. Vehicle Damage Vehicle collisions take more damage, but also cause more damage, so repair kits are more relevant to game play. Repair kits repair a fixed amount of damage instead of all vehicle damage New blood splatter when hitting entities Improved ragdoll hits and can cause dismemberment on hit entities Additional spark effects when hitting blocks Improved block collision damage calculations Wandering Hordes To promote engagement and encourage players to confront wandering hordes, we have implemented an increase in the chances of loot bags dropping from these encounters. This adjustment aims to incentivize players to actively engage with wandering hordes instead of allowing them to pass by without engagement. Furthermore, an additional improvement ensures that wandering hordes will no longer occur just before the commencement of your blood moon event, providing a more balanced and predictable gameplay experience. Twitch Extension We’ve added a new Twitch extension to allow viewers to interact with the streamer without cluttering up the chat. This allowed for the addition of more advanced actions that cost Bits. We’ve also added Presets to customize your integration experience. Custom Events have also been added for Twitch events such as Subs, Gifting Subs, Raids, Hype Trains, and Channel Point Redeems. Performance & Optimizations Unity version update Window block optimizations All Windows have been converted to shapes which are more performant. Full windows downgrade to broken. Broken and Empty windows upgrade to Full. Only Full windows can upgrade material. Improved prop LOD transition values by adding LOD categories so similar props cross fade at the same distances. They also cull at more relevant distances which improves performance. Trees (adjustments to meshes and settings for better performance) AI can handle more zombies by throttling their activity based on distance to player AI pathing can handle many more paths per second Less memory use A variety of other small performance optimizations Networking Improvements Greatly reduced network traffic Entities have variable update rate based on distance There have been a number of improvements and optimizations made for a smoother multiplayer experience. Character animations and ragdolls now sync smoothly while behind the scenes many optimizations have been made to create a more in-sync experience while also greatly reducing the overall network traffic while playing. This includes a new prioritization system that can increase the rate of server updates for specific entities based on their proximity to players. Server Administration and Multiplayer WebDashboard The old Web control panel for the server has been removed in favor of a new Web Dashboard. This is the first step of bringing over what has previously been known as Allocs Server Fixes, providing Web based APIs for interacting with the server as well as a browser interface to those features. Compared to the old mod this interface currently lacks all of the APIs that provide information on players. This new Web Dashboard is currently provided as a mod shipped with the dedicated server version in order to be able to speed up iteration times independently of the actual game releases when improvements are made or fixes integrated. If you were previously using the control panel to automate server tasks you will need to switch over to the new API system: Normally you define API tokens in the serveradmin.xml or via the ‘webtokens’ command, but you can also define one API token on the command line with the ‘-webapitokenname=x’ and ‘-webapitokensecret=y’ arguments which will define a single token with permission level 0 The API endpoint to issue commands is ‘/api/command’. The token name and secret need to be passed as HTTP headers ‘X-SDTD-API-TOKENNAME’ and ‘X-SDTD-API-SECRET’. The request needs to use the POST method and contain a JSON body consisting of ‘{“command”: “command to execute”}’ There are new config options related to the dashboard: ‘WebDashboardEnabled’ toggles the whole system on or off ‘WebDashboardPort’ specifies the TCP port to run the interface on ‘WebDashboardUrl’ should contain the full URL that points to the dashboard, e.g. to a reverse proxy forwarding to the internal dashboard, like ‘https://proxydomain:8000/’. If the server can be reached with its public IP directly this value can be left empty ‘EnableMapRendering’ decides whether the game renders the map tiles to corresponding images that can be seen on the Web Dashboard or used with other tools to get a full view of the discovered game map. Mumble Positional Audio Alpha 21 brings support for Mumble’s Positional Audio feature. This means once it is enabled in the game audio settings and in your Mumble client you can play with your friends and hear in which direction they are from your view and get to hear them louder or quieter depending on their distance. Detailed setup instructions can be found on this Wiki page. Other changes Now allows changing gamepref ServerPassword during an active server session with the SetGamepref console command Added “teleportpoirelative” / “tppr” command to teleport to relative coordinates inside the current POI UserDataFolder and SaveGameFolder now allow paths relative to the game files root (like “MyData/Saves” would refer to the “<game root>/MyData/Saves”) Serverconfig.xml changes Removed options ‘ControlPanelEnabled’, ‘ControlPanelPort’, ‘ControlPanelPassword’ Added: ‘WebDashboardEnabled’, ‘WebDashboardPort’, ‘WebDashboardUrl’, ‘EnableMapRendering’ (see text above) Added: ‘AllowSpawnNearBackpack’ – lets players choose to spawn near their backpack on death if enabled Added: ‘MaxQueuedMeshLayers’ – Memory vs chunk generation time tradeoff Changed: ‘AirDropMarker’ defaults to enabled now Changed: ‘DynamicMeshLandClaimOnly’ defaults to true now Added: ‘MaxChunkAge’ and ‘SaveDataLimit’ (see section on the new Chunk Reset System) Modding Notes Game updated to Unity 2021.3.19 Updated HarmonyX to 2.10.0 Added a popup to the main menu when mods with custom code were found during loading but EAC is active Added support for ModInfo format v2. It is recommended to migrate mods to use that format as this will be a requirement later on. Format specification Support for new XML patch operation “csv”: Manipulate elements like tags Requires attribute “op” being either “Add” or “Remove” Optional attribute “delim” containing a single character. If not specified defaults to comma “,”. Has to match the delimiter used in the list you want to patch Text of the element specifies the value(s) to add or remove, separated by the same delimiter specified Remove supports wildcard in the beginning and/or end of the name, so a name can be e.g. “ammo*” to match all names starting with “ammo” instead of an exact match Adding does skip names that are already in the patched list, e.g. patching “sight,movement,melee,bullet,arrow,rocket” with adding “player,bullet” would only add “player”, not “bullet” as it is already in the old list Block class PlantGrowing with IsRandom set to true: Now works in unloaded chunks ‘PlantGrowing.GrowthRate’ property defines the mean value New property ‘PlantGrowing.GrowthDeviation’ is a factor defining the min/max deviation from mean. Defaults to 0.25 XUi Credits controller now supports loading custom credits XMLs. Also supports multiple templates for categories/credit lines News controller now supports loading custom newsXMLs. Also supports limiting to specific platforms or device types and entries that only show up once the date+time is met Changed code loading: A single DLL can now have multiple IModAPI implementations Multiple DLLs are supported for IModAPI and game classes All DLLs from all mods are loaded first before iterating classes so that mod load order does not affect resolving referenced types across multiple mods Console command ‘exportcurrentconfigs’ now opens the dump folder in the explorer New console command ‘damagereset’ to repair all blocks in a POI Game command line argument ‘-quick-continue’ allows bypassing the main menu and directly continuing with the last played save Game launcher now supports the new arguments ‘-logpath <folder>’ and ‘-forceeac <on|off>’ Game launcher now supports the new argument ‘-skip-launcher’ to not show it even if it would be shown by default (e.g. because of its “Show launcher everytime” option) World’s prefabs.xml is now always saved with y-offset based positions when using the world editor so that changes to the ground level height in prefabs does not require changes to worlds using them Quests above tier 5 no longer show as tier “I” but instead use the correct roman number Localization files are tested for a valid header line and show appropriate errors XUi texture view with local texture file no longer fails when the full path to the texture contains a ‘+’ or ‘#’ XUi detection of style references vs strings just starting with “[“ and ending in “]” was fixed so that e.g. an text attribute can have values like “[FF0000]Red text[-]” Changes for mods with custom code doing custom I/O: We’ve replaced direct usage of System.IO classes such as File and Directory throughout the codebase with custom classes named with an “Sd” prefix (shorthand for “save data” – and/or “seven days” if you prefer). The new classes are SdFile, SdDirectory, SdFileInfo, SdDirectoryInfo, and SdFileSystemInfo. Mods should also switch to using these when accessing any user data or save data (it is okay to use standard File IO for other data though). Also some guidelines: Make sure to not hold the streams open for too long. Keep file sizes small if possible. Reasons for this change include: To facilitate a future backup feature that is active during writing, which should assist with power loss during writes resulting in corrupted data, the trade off being additional writes to disk and higher memory usage. Persisting to disk will happen some time after closing the stream. Support for saves on other platforms (e.g. consoles). Some platforms require writes to happen within a certain window and some platforms do not provide standard File IO for saves, but have key-value storage only, both of which we have to abstract over.

So for now we will wish you again Merry Christmas, a happy New-year and will leave you with the TFP Christmas poem of tradition. Twas the night before Blood moon! Twas the night before Blood moon, when all through the base. Not a walker was scratching, a weak wooden frame. The spike traps I set on the perimeter with care, In hopes that it kept the zombies out there. The Survivors were nestled in the base by their beds, While visions of Minibikes danced in their heads. My Buddy clutched his ‘Bone Shiv, and I my Wood Club, As we just settled down for some good Shamway grub. When out in the Wasteland there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the campfire to see what was the matter. Away to the guard tower I flew like a flash, I equipped my best weapon and opened the hatch. The Blood moon shined red on the barbed wire below. As I waited in fear for my walking dead foes. When, what through the thick dark night fog should appear, But a miniature screamer and 8 dogs to the rear. With a huge running horde, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment this game is so sick. More rapid than eagles from the wasteland they came, The Screamer she shouted as if to call them by name! “Now Spiders! Now, Ferals! Now Corpses and Crawlers! On, Fat Cop! On, Nurse! On Cadavers and Maulers! To the top of the base! To the top of the wall! Now slash away! Thrash away! And devour them all!” As the base walls shook and the particles would fly, They got through the spikes and the wire in no time. So up to the Base-top the Survivors we flew, With a turd in my pocket, and some Goldenrod too. And then, a big Screeching, I heard on the roof A pack of Spiders had got up from the stoop. As I drew my Club, and was turning around, Down through the hatch came a Man with a bound. He was dressed all in hide and leather and scrap, And armed to the teeth, ready to kick ass. A bundle of guns he had flung on his back, And he looked like Rick Grimes but with a bigger mustache. His eyes—how they pierced! His stare was so scary! I thought he might kill me or quote Dirty Harry! He frowned and shushed me as he pointed due East, And his beard was so thick that he must be part beast. He readied his Shotty as he gritted his teeth, With a ten gallon hat on his head like a wreath. He had a mean face and to the zombies was smelly, They followed him close like their very own deli! He was fast, he was tough, the Duke would be proud, And I laughed when I saw him, take care of the hounds! With spit in his eye and a twist of his head, Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And filled with lead all the zeds that would lurk. And laying his finger on his trigger of steel. He killed one last Zed and sat down for a meal. He looked at me close as he downed his meat stew. You look new here he said and you haven’t a clue. I will leave you now with this one piece of advice. Be ready for the Blood moon its one hell of a fight! Click Here To Visit 7daystodie.com

Random World Generation TFP is very proud and excited to bring a brand new Random World Generation System to Alpha 20. The System has been re-engineered from the ground up with a focus on generation speed, flexibility, quality visuals, believability, replay-ability, POI dispersion, Trader positions, and so much more. We took a more content-driven approach for POI’s, City Tiles, and Stamps. Cities and roads are much more believable and detailed. Wilderness paths connect in a believable way to POI’s. There are really too many changes to list but here are some of the main features included: New Districts which includes downtown, industrial, commercial, residential, rural, country town, wilderness, and country residentialNew RWG Tiles support city and town construction which includes tile variants of: Intersection, straight, corner, caps and T-sections with nearly 50 unique tiles.New stamps to improve and create unique terrain for every biomeNew stamps to support rivers and canyonsNew faster RWG creation supports 6k, 8k and 10k mapsNew town types: City, Town, Country Town and Ghost town.

Sizes include:Small 25 X 25 metersMedium 42 X 42 metersLarge 60 x 60 metersExtra large 100 x 100 sizes POI placement has been improved to account for each POI’s overall performance cost and as a result, very heavy POI’s will not be placed near each other which helps keep the game running better.3 Brand new Pre-generated maps will be offered.XML support for modding in your own tiles, parts, unique town types, and more see Server.XML and Modding section below for more detail.New Random Gen Preview tool mix options to support tweaking custom maps to your liking changing many things including:Frequency of TownsFrequency of Wilderness POI’sFrequency of Rivers, Craters, Cracks, and LakesFrequency of Plains, Hills, and MountainsGlobal amount of Randomness Locations The TFP Level team doubled in size by late 2020. That paired with many improvements to the proprietary level tools, shape tools, and world tools have helped the POI team generate an enormous amount of new and updated content for Alpha 20. Here are just a few of the great things coming to Alpha 20: Over 175 Brand new explorable POI’sOver 25 reimagined old POI’sOver 550 Explorable locationsMany Tier 3 and 4s have been added with some new and updated tier 5sAlpha 20 POI Tier breakdown includes:Tier 5 POI’s – 7Tier 4 POI’s – 29Tier 3 POI’s – 52Tier 2 POI’s – 102Tier 1 and Remnant POI’s – 360There are over 200 new and overhauled POI’s, too many to mention but some notable larger POI’s include:Countrytown_business_05 – “Butcher Petes” (Overhauled Tier 4)Factory_03 ( New Tier 5)Apartment_brick_6_flr (Overhauled Tier 5)Apartment_01 (New Tier 4)Downtown_strip_05 (New Tier 4)Downtown_strip_07 (New Tier 4)Downtown_strip_09 (New Tier 3)Downtown_strip_10 (New Tier 3)Downtown_strip_11 (New Tier 4)Warehouse_01 (New Tier 4)Warehouse_03 (New Tier 4)Skyscraper_01 (Overhauled Tier 5)Skyscraper_02 (Overhauled Tier 5)Skyscraper_03 (Overhauled Tier 5)Skyscraper_04 (Overhauled Tier 4)Navezgane has gotten a little love with some new POI’s added. More to come in Alpha 21Diersville, Departure, Gravestowne, and Perishton Updates.New suburban, rural and wilderness communities were added.Road and Terrain Updates. Characters Our character team has been busy overhauling and re-imagining all of the zombies and NPCs in HD. They may look better but they have less draw calls and are slightly better in performance due to a new physically based rendering shader that utilizes packed textures and improved emissive rendering. There are also some brand new zombies never yet seen before. Nearly 25 new HD characters have been completed for Alpha 20 in fact all non player characters and enemies are now HD. There are also new improved character shaders for zombies, NPC’s, radiated zombies and burnt zombies. The New HD zombies include: New HD Wight ZombieNew HD Thug ZombieNew HD Tom Clarke ZombieNew HD Worker ZombieNew HD Mechanic ZombieNew HD Hazmat ZombieNew HD Dog ZombieNew HD Biker ZombieNew HD Spider ZombieNew HD Soldier ZombieNew HD Lab ZombieNew HD Cop ZombieNew HD Tourist ZombieNew HD Nurse ZombieNew HD Lumberjack ZombieNew HD Businessman ZombieNew HD Mutant ZombieNew HD Screamer ZombieNew HD Stripper ZombieNew HD Burnt ZombieNew HD Trader JoelNew HD Trader RektNew HD Trader HughNew HD Trader Bob Weapons Alpha 20 introduces a new line of pipe weapons along with an overhaul of several current weapons for a total of 6 new weapons and 13 upgraded HD remakes to further the look and feel of an apocalyptic environment. Pipe weapons are new early-game weapons easily crafted in your backpack, and only require basic ingredients like short iron pipes, wood, glue, and leather. Players will now have access to a Pipe Baton, Pipe Pistol, Pipe Shotgun, Pipe Rifle, and a Pipe Machine gun in earlier gameplay to be in tune with the new loot and level balancing. These weapons all have custom sounds and animations with variable mod slots similar to existing in-game weapons. Pipe weapons are easily repaired with short iron pipes. As part of weapon cleanup, the Blunderbuss was removed and replaced with the new Pipe Shotgun. A new Lever Action Rifle was added to round out and complete the existing rifle tier. The Lever Action Rifle’s firing speed and range make it a great gun for outdoor survival. This rifle also uses 7.62 mm rounds and has variable mod slots similar to existing in-game weapons. Existing weapon overhauls include new models, textures, and/or sounds for already favorite items like the AK-47, SMG, M60, .44 Magnum, Hunting Rifle, and the Rocket Launcher. These texture and model upgrades add some nice polish and align with the look and feel of other art upgrades throughout the game. In addition to model and texture updates, the Bows, Crossbows, and Compound Bow all received a damage increase. Arrow models received an update to complete the new look and feel of the bows. Shape and Creative Menus Building blocks have received a major overhaul. For starters, there are now over 1300 unique shapes to select from for every craftable material. Players can now craft 5 basic material helper blocks which are: Frames (OSB/Weak Wood texture), Wood, Cobblestone, Concrete and Steel. After crafting, equip them to the toolbelt and then use the radial menu (or shortcut keys Shift+R) to open the shape selection screen. This screen shows several shape categories that can then narrow down the search: Basic, Square, Round, Wedge, Poles, Stairs, Catwalks, Trim, Windows, Destruction, Construction, Deco and Letters For you modders out there, the shape menu brings with it an easier way to add new shapes to the game as you no longer have to separately define each shape with each material. Simply add the new shape definitions to shapes.xml and let the game fill in the materials for that shape at runtime. The new shapes are then automatically added to the material shape helpers in game. This feature also greatly reduces the amount of crafting recipes needed. The creative menu has also been overhauled with a new category system. Categories have been moved and expanded to the left hand side of the window. Pick a Main Category in the left column and then a Secondary Category in the right column. Stability Preview Placing blocks has had several changes. The block preview now animates smoothly through the world and the shading is improved. The preview will also change color to indicate the effect of adding the block. Colors Include: Yellow – The block is stable. As the block becomes more yellow it means it is getting less stableRed – Placing the block would cause some type of collapse. Adding blocks to reinforce other parts of the structure may allow this block to then be placed without collapsePink – Placing would cause this block to fall as it does not have sufficient support Robotic Drone Companion The new Robotic Drone is a companion that gives the player extra storage and some enhanced end game features. The drones abilities can be augmented and enhanced by the player’s intellect, but players can still acquire and use a Drone without perking into it. The Robotic drone is modded in the player’s inventory. Dyes are added to the cosmetic slot and mods to the modifier slot(s). Some of the Additional Mods and Enhancements to the Drone include: Robotic Drone Armor Plating Mod – Increases the Drones DefensesRobotic Drone Cargo Mod -Increases the Drones carrying capacityRobotic Drone Medic Mod – Gives the Drone the ability to heal the playerRobotic Drone Moral Booster Mod – Player Stamina regen is increased by 10% when near the DroneRobotic Drone Headlamp Mod – Gives the Drone a headlight Dynamic Imposters We have added a brand new Dynamic Imposter System to the game which renders changes to Distant chunk POI meshes caused by players or zombies. Changes such as destroying a building, building your own base or adding to or modifying an existing building can now be appropriately displayed by the Dynamic Imposter System. Updated imposter meshes are automatically shared with new players who join the game. What does this mean for players? With this option turned on you can renovate existing POI’s, fortify a whole town or build a castle on a hill top and see the changes from anywhere in the world. Depending on PC strength we have several game option settings that can be edited in serverconfig.xml DynamicMeshEnabledSetting to true will enable the systemDynamicMeshLandClaimOnlySetting to true will make the system only active in player Land Claimed areasDynamicMeshLandClaimBufferDynamic Mesh Land Claim Base chunk radius sizeDynamicMeshMaxItemCacheHow many items can be processed concurrently, higher values use more RAM Big Thanks to Danny Richardson from the 7 Days to Die modding community for working with TFP on this awesome new system! Environment Art The Environment Art and Shader Team have been improving much of the rendering tech and creating hundreds of new PBR environment models to enhance the world, POI’s and overall game immersion. Improvements include: Terrain Shader – Updated for better quality and performance including improved roughness and specular shading modificationsFoliage Shader – Updated for improved rendering effects like subsurface scattering in addition to physically based rendering and packed textures for performanceEntity Tint Shader – This shader provides support for tinted color variations on models in addition to improving performance due to packed texturesNew Terrain TexturesNew Block TexturesLighting and Sky ImprovementsMeshes – Short plant meshes, like grass and cotton, have been greatly improved to generate more detail and much more variety of shapes with less mirroring. Mesh complexity now uses the grass quality setting which allows for less detail on lower end computersBiomes – Plant distribution has been improved and the forest has a new short grass sub biome. Grass placement on slopes has been improved as wellTrees – Trees now have a root ball to seal holes at the base of the trunkClouds – Improved blending of cloud layers and we now can keep cross blends for much more variety and to better match the weather systemLightning – Adjusted values, added a cloud area brightening effect and fixed a bug with the world not being litWind – The weather system’s wind speed now changes the speed of plants blowing in the wind and we added wind gustsAlong with all of the new POI’s of alpha 20, there is plenty of new content to add to the visual immersion of the game.Cities are detailed to a whole new level, with props such as newspaper stands, mailboxes, street lights, parking meters, planters, operational manhole covers, traffic signals, new street signs as well as business signs, ATM’s, Etc.Industrial locations are enhanced by new assets like new conveyor belt systems, construction site material stacks. Tarp fencing, etc. All new functioning and destructible doors such as cellar doors and shutters.More immersive destruction for the world you’ve come to love with a variety of new rubble piles.A new Mesh tinting system and shader bring you more color variations of new art content to further customize your creations.Hundreds of new and updated PBR meshes have been added to the game overall. Quests Questing improvements have been made all over the world in 7 Days To Die. Starter quests now have helpful on screen icons to show you where to find the required items. We’ve decided to retire the challenge notes to allow focus on new quest types. Buried Supplies have been updated to increase the challenge. We’ve also added a new tier 3 version of this quest type. Trader to Trader progression has changed. Each trader now has their own set of tiered quests that must be completed. Players can now navigate between those tiers when selecting a quest from the trader. We’ve also added a new quest type, Restore Power. Restore Power quests are activated at night and require the player to re-establish power to the locations. Find the generators inside and activate them. Be careful as the generators may alert nearby zombies. AI The AI and spawning of enemies have gotten some great improvements including: Biome Spawning – Zombie spawning in biomes is now based on the types of buildings in the area, so industrial, commercial and downtown areas are more populated. These areas also spawn more challenging enemies in the harder biomesDucking – Zombies can now duck down to help them not get stuck on obstaclesObstacle Attacks – Zombies now stand more reliably at the point of attack without sliding aroundHead Tracking – Added more variety with when and where they lookBurst Attack – Added a new AOE burst attack, which is used by the new mutant zombie Feral Sense Game Option With standard settings Zombies have limited distances that they can hear and see you. The feral sense option allows you to greatly increase their hearing and seeing, which makes the game more challenging. This also makes the world seem more populated as zombies you may not have noticed will find you. Features include: Increases the range that all types of zombies can hear and see the player by over double the normal amountsStealth still works, the zombies will just detect you more easilyGame options are Off, Day, Night, All (Day and Night) Vehicles We have added mods, coloring and additional improvements and bug fixes to Vehicles. Mods improve different aspects of your vehicle like using less fuel. Any of the dyes you get during gameplay can be added to the cosmetic slot to tint the vehicle’s color. ModsExpanded Seating – Allows 2 riders on the minibike or motorcycle and 4 on the 4×4Fuel Saver – Your engine uses less gasReserve Fuel Tank – Increases tank capacityOff Road Headlights – Brighter lightsSuper Charger – Increases accelerationColors – You can place dyes in the cosmetic slot to colorize parts of each vehicleCameraTracking – Improved camera tracking and fixed some popping issuesZoom – Camera can now be zoomed in and out using the mouse wheel or gamepadFixes – Vehicle duplication or getting relocated to a new position in the world has been addressed along with better out of bounds checks Loot Loot Progression has been separated from Game Stage with its own Loot Stage system. Players will increase their loot stage similar to their game stage, but there are many bonuses that can add to it. The biome the player is in, the POI the player is looting, and even the container they are looking at can have a loot stage bonus. Loot stage will then boost the quality and/or the tier of items found. For example, adventurous players that explore the more difficult biomes and POI’s will find iron tools or advanced weapons a little faster than those that stay in the pine forest. When it comes to biome bonuses, the progression is as follows: Pine Forest, Desert, Snow, and then Wasteland (NOTE: Burnt Forest in Navezgane is the same as the Desert) Loot has been adjusted to provide early game weapons and tools a chance to shine. This grants the player time to find and use a higher quality item before finding the next tier. Books have also been realigned to deliver players books like Spear Hunter and Archery earlier for the most benefit. Food, Drink, Medical, and Ammo Supplies have been adjusted to keep players on the hunt for more in places you would expect to find them. To bring back the fear of infection, items that cure it have been greatly reduced. There are also 5 new Tiered Loot chests that are placed according to the POI Tiers Music For the Dynamic music system In previous Alphas, our goal was to maximize the uniqueness of content by leveraging the power of combinations. Working around a theme, we could build complex musical compositions by layering loops on and pulling them off. These layers function as individual instruments do in standard compositions. By defining how a given layer would be used in a given configuration, and by sorting a number of interchangeable loops into these layers, we were able to get a very high number of unique combinations across all of our configurations. While this schema allows for a high degree of versatility in the way of content, it is not reactive to gameplay on the content level. That is where our new “vertical dynamism” comes into play. As in previous Alphas, we have teamed up with Native Darkness Productions to bring this new dynamic to our music. This time we have turned our focus to our game’s core mechanic; The Bloodmoon Horde. Giving this feature the attention it deserves, we have created a theme just for Bloodmoon. There is an ebb and flow to the intensity of combat during Bloodmoon, and we have revamped our threat level system to tap into it. Our new theme accounts for this, and the music now reacts in real-time to the intensity of Combat as if a conductor is watching your every move. The lows and highs of The Blood Moon Horde are now reflected in the music, significantly improving the immersion factor of our core mechanic. New Bloodmoon Music with threat-responsive layering systemImproved layering with added complexity for layered tracksImproved randomizationOver 6.5 million combinations of tracks across all configurationsNew Threat-Responsive Ambient Audio System Audio The game audio keeps improving and the audio team has kept up with the needs creating new custom sounds for all the new content including: Twitch SoundsCustom sounds for all new pipe weaponsNew Door SoundsNew game vent activation sounds (keys, buttons, etc.)Restore power quest soundsCustom sounds for new loot chests Weather The world’s weather system continues to improve with weather now being more distinctive and varying. Improvements include: Randomness – Improved calculations and shorter durations, so less likely to get stuck with the same weatherWeather groups – Added grouping of values like fog, clouds, and precipitation to allow distinctive types of weather like foggy, raining, snowing or storming. Each biome now uses these groups for their own weather Video Options Several quality settings have been changed to better control the game’s rendering. Auto detection was added, which looks at your GPU to determine what quality preset seems best for your computer. The first time A20 is run it will reset the video options and a preset will be chosen. New Options Include: Anti-Aliasing – Temporal (TAA) is an added choice. It is an advanced rendering technique that smooths edges based on motionAA Sharpening – With TAA on, you can use the sharpening option to increase how strong edges look in the game Animation The Animation Team has been busy improving the overall animation quality of the game. Some of the animation improvements that have gone into Alpha 20 Include: Overall improvement of First and Third person Weapon hold, attack, power attack and idle animationsOverall improvement of First and Third person Tool hold, attack, power attack and idle animationsBetter 3rd person blending of upper and lower body while walking, running, strafing and general movement while carrying weaponsNew Zombie dog animationsNew Jiggle Tech adds dynamic movement based motion for the following Zombies and Parts:Bloated Tourist – Stomach and overall body fatCop – Stomach and overall body fatBig Mama – Stomach and overall body fatLab Tech – Hair, body wounds, dangling handSoldier – Torso body wounds and torn uniformMutated Zombie – Acid bubbles on skin, including blended animationScreamer – Clothing, hair and movement of jaw and tongue Dismemberment Alpha 20 includes a preview of a new dismemberment feature to eventually replace the original system first introduced in Alpha 13. The new feature will allow zombies to have better-looking dismemberment effects, as well as unique effects per zombie. Visual damage on zombies will differ depending on the type of weapon used to damage them. Blunt weapons can cave in a zombie’s head, while a bladed weapon can slice off the head entirely. Heads and limbs can be chopped off and can be seen falling to the ground, as well as some damage instances displaying custom animations and particle effects. The initial release will include support added to a small number of zombies, with subsequent updates expanding support to all zombies. Twitch Twitch Integration has been improved in A20 with balance, new commands and a new voting system. We’ve extended our point rewards for subscribing, gifting subs and raids. We’ve also added spam delay to help keep chat cleaner and support for custom events. Voting introduces a new dynamic to the integration. Random polls are introduced, giving viewers options for new buffs and debuffs, attack hordes, and debuts brand new Boss Hordes! If the Vote Hordes eliminate the streamer, all voters receive a set reward. Custom Events have been added to allow the streamer to customize their experience when viewers interact. These are based on bits, subscriptions, gift subs, raids and channel point redemptions. These are defined in the twitch_events.xml. New features and commands include: New Twitch Voting ModeProgression mode has been improved with balanceMany new commands include:#celebrate – It’s a party and everyone’s a pinata. #dance_off – The Fun Pimps groove, and everyones invited. #silly – A silly command sounds silly.#reverse – Turns you around 180 degrees.#confuse – Flips the movement controls.#no_robo – No robotic help.#no_explosives – No explosive use.#no_vehicle – Vehicle use is painful.#no_safe – Safe zones are painful.#no_stealth – Bombs go off eliminating stealthy movement.#painting – You see the apocalypse as a work of art.#deafen – You cannot hear.#spawn_mutated – Spawns a Mutated Zombie#spawn_tourist – Spawns a Tourist ZombieCustom Events based on:Bit donation amountsSubscriptions based on monthsNumber of gift subscriptionsRaiding with defined numbers of viewers. Channel Point redemptions Modding Tools The Tools Team has been busy the past year improving proprietary tools to speed up internal development and continue to support the 7 Days thriving modding community. Here are just a few of the many tools and modding support improvements Alpha 20 has to offer. World Editor Improvements When placing a new prefab it is centered with its front side on the position you selected and are aligned with the ground level in that positionWhile moving prefabs around they show a preview of their contentsMoving prefabs becomes faster the farther the player is away from them, making it easier to move prefabs across bigger distancesPlacing/removing prefabs is now managed from the prefab browser known from the POI EditorShow prefab names on the POI selection boxes (can be toggled in the “World Tools” tab)Show info about the selected POI in the ESC menuPrefabs you are close to always show their orientation POI Editor Improvements Allow highlighting all blocks of a certain type from the “Level Tools 2” tabAllow restricting paint brush operations to blocks within the current selection boxAdd option to select the biome used for playtestingDebug mode and creative mode are enabled in playtesting by defaultESC menu shows the quest tier of the current POIAllow rebinding the keys to change block densityAdded Paint Surface radial painting option to paint contiguous coplanar surfaces RWG Preview and rwgmixer.xml XML support for modding in your own tiles, parts, unique town types, and moreNew Random Gen Preview tool mix options to support tweaking custom maps to your liking changing many things including:Frequency of TownsFrequency of Wilderness POI’sFrequency of Rivers, Craters, Cracks, and LakesFrequency of Plains, Hills, and MountainsGlobal amount of Randomness Blocks.xml Added a command line argument “-debugshapes” to get output on which block material / shape combinations are created by the shape systemAdded console command “placeblockshapes” to easily place all variants of the shape / helper block you are holdingAdded property “PlaceAsRandomRotation” making blocks get placed in a random allowed rotationAdded console command “placeblockrotations” to place the currently held block in all supported rotationsAdded property “AllowedRotations” to specify which rotations a block can be placed in Modding Clients now allow loading mod DLLs the same way as on the dedicated server – as long as EAC is disabledHarmonyX is shipped with the game to allow patching game code at runtime. In combination with loading DLLs on clients patching game code files should no longer be necessary for almost all modsThe mod code initialization call IModApi.InitMod is now passed in its own instance e.g. to get the mod’s base pathClass names specified in XMLs now always support namespaces and not having to use any hard coded class name prefix (e.g. custom block classes do not have to start with “Block” in their name)LootContainer references are now based on names instead of numeral IDs, making collisions between mods less likelyXUi controls and styles can be shared between the menu XUi and the in-game XUi XMLsThe XUi pager now supports showing the max page numberAdded a new XUi dropdown boxXML patch type names (like “insertafter”, “set”) are no longer case-sensitiveXML loading and patching shows line numbers on most errors during loading/patching themAdded better error messages when using “set”-patches Server Administration and Multiplayer To future-proof our game, including allowing us to use the latest anti-cheat and expanding to other platforms later on for future crossplay capabilities, we added Epic Online Services (EOS) to the game. For regular players this should not have any noticeable effect, you do NOT need an account on Epics platforms. EOS only knows your SteamID which is public anyway and matches that to an ID for EOS that is only valid for 7 Days to Die. The change for server administration is in the user IDs that are used to store data and reference players, i.e. the filenames of user files, IDs in the serveradmin.xml or console output / commands which now refer to the user’s EOS ID. Serverconfig.xml changesChanged default “WorldGenSize” from 4096 to 6144 to match in-game defaultAdded “ZombieFeralSense”Changed default “LootRespawnDays” from 30 to 7 to match in-game defaultAdded DynamicMesh options – see section about Dynamic Imposters for detailsAdded Twitch options – see section about Twitch Integration Improvements for details (?
