  1. Hey hinterlands not sure where to post this. Since i came across the thread with someone linking things to people making money on the long dark stuff thats all im guessing in trying to cash in on your flagship. What/where is your stance on fan made things and people making any profit on it. Now i do mean fan made and doing stuff like artist rendition of what they think will or astrid would look like in other styles and such. I think you (hinterlands) making a statement on it and all would prob help to ensure if you arent ok with people making money off it to hopefully stop those trying or if you are ok with fan made stuff but want them to include fan made not hinterland made etc.
  2. I dont if wolves have had any buffs or if i have just been unlucky. but i have lost 5 runs recently 4 of which where due to wolves. in the 4 wolve death runs i had bear/wolf coats on as well as other good gear atleast 20% protection and these wolves (different regions normal wolves not timber) take me from full well fed health to death. yes interloper run but i turned stuggle on to low. no matter what i use it seems since tales i just die from a wolf attack. so is it just extremely bad luck? or did something change in wolves recently.
  3. if i may why not add in the command console. have it enabled/disabled via in game options and a new command to reload containers in which ever house you are in (if possible lock it to just interior location you are in to not reload all containers) to give current runs a small small chance at the new loot? it might be a temp work around right now for future updates regarding saves that are at this point? Like it will still be which ever setting you are on so if you do the reload on interloper chances are its not going to reload the container with anything and for most lopers if given this option for the new things or for any other save will not likely keep doing it over and over. they will try once move on and if they get something other then the new loot most likely will toss it outside to despawn and not use it.
  4. i have been loving this mod. Ive been doing nothing but relentless nights with custom interloper settings (wolves bears moose turned up) and its been fun. i havent turned on perm night at endgame though. have it set to 100% for increase of time 24hrs added every day. endgame set to 1year. this mod alone spices up survival.
  5. since most of my current runs are relentless nights base interloper with wolves/bears/moose turned up i tend to safeguard a lot of books to read. If i get lucky with a hacksaw/hammer and its past day 30 sometimes day 60 i will choose a spot like maint yard/hib/riken and just forge tons of arrow heads/break down everything and read the books when it hits night time. if i finish all that i go out and hunt wolves if possible. try to get a ton of fresh pelts before hand as well so that way i can craft things while waiting till day time. Other times.....i just sit there and pass time since by day 30+ i have taken out a few bears wolves deer and have a load of food and just twildle my thumbs while waiting.
  6. Neffex-Bite me when hunting wolves and bears. neffex-fight back for all the other time when not hunting.
  7. Since the start of the pandemic most of us have been playing games and kicking back. and always coming to post about things about the game here on the forums. But never have i seen a post about this. Hinterland devs. how are you all holding up? can not be easy having to check in here while worring about your own health/safety. Worring about any updates you push out and if they meet our expectations. So How are all of you?
  8. thank you. that is all i ask for. Thank you for your time
  9. Hey hinterlands and fellow surivors. sorry if this is the wrong area to post this but this is to hinterlands. How hard would it be to code in using arrow keys and enter key for all things in game over just dropping items? LIke for me not sure for anyone else but having to mouse click for how much time to spend sleeping and everything is annoying while for dropping items or cooking you can use the arrow keys/enter button. Im just wondering if it would be possible to code in an option to be turned on or off to use arrow keys/enter for everything like that.
  10. Most likely it is going to be added in chapter 5. If anything its going to be either A: a cutscene type of ending or B: a explorable area with some quests where the last part triggers the ending. It wouldnt make sense if they never add the one thing that is talked about in game the most. At least in my opinion.
  11. maybe try running the game in compatity mode for win10/8.1/7?
  12. Ya. but im not 100% if it was a snapper or not. It had that red stripe on its legs and all that which i think is common in snappers in this area but not 100% if its exclusive to snappers only. Was a pronounced red and vivid green on the legs and all that.
  13. my most amazing trip into the wild was when i went on a bike ride with my 2 nieces and 1 of my nephews (before my 2nd nephew was born or even in the proccess of being made) the 4 of us were biking/walking a state trail and we were about 50ft from a pond/lake or what ever you want to consider it (big body of water almost like a lake but has that green floating stuff that looks like clovers) we found a 30lb snapping turtle. This thing was almost as big as my bike tire (24x14 mountain bike tire). it was stuck in the middle of the trail on a hot day. told my nieces and nephew to stay back and i got off my bike and moved it into the grass. the grass was wet since we had rain the night before. Was amazing to see a turtle that big. glad i didnt lose a finger but i remembered reading somewhere that if you have to move a snapper to pick it up from the middle of the shell on top so it cant scratch or bite you. when i set it onto the grass it looked like it looked back and gave the whats up/thanks nod to me.
  14. @Admin In the future when you do allow mod support would there be any limits? Would you only allow/consider ones made/built and hosted on these forums? Would you allow or ok nexus mods? Could you when you have the time Post a solid what would be ok and wont be ok for mods and which type you would endorse and which you would shun?
  15. This aint a wish or anything just a simple idea that might work. Since hinterlands is following the rule of social distance and all. They can not have a store (online or otherwise) in the normal sense for health reasons so what i was thinking is this. Why not have each employee of hinterlands have x amount of each item on the store at their homes? open the online store 1 day a week then email to all employees what was sold on the site. then The employee with the items even if its a few different employees Fill the order from the stock they have. Im sure this will prob cost more money for the items so we would have to pay more then normal but it might make it work. As for the reason for 1 day a week maybe 2 days. is to allow the employees to have time to develop the game and not spend to much marking down whats left in their stock at home. and allows who ever watches the store time to mark each item sold send an email and allows the other employees time to send an updated list of current stock to the store handler to put items out of stock or low stock. I know this prob wont be considered but hey its an idea that might help. Since it seems some still want to buy things it might give that few extra $$$ to elevate any worries. This aint flushed out so it prob could be done better but in general this is how it might work in a overall watered down version.
  16. Before leaving a house or shelter Check double check triple check everything. guns/bow repaired? How far you are going do you have the right amount of food/water on you? Clothes repaired? Rested before the trip? carrying the min amount of stuff incase motherload find? Got enough Bandages/antiseptic/healing items on you and a good stock pile for dire needs? other tools good to go? Got enough stuff for a fire?
  17. The one thing that scares me the most is being at half condition and Hearing a howl or roar. being at full health i dont mind if i get attacked but being under 75% or even 50% hearing a bear or wolf Scares me. even more so if i just landed a kill and the food would help my health. Then 2nd thing that scares me is Getting an injury while walking to a new spot with minimal stuff and worrying about if the injury is going to kill me.
  18. Hey Guys and Gals of hinterlands and everyone on the forums. I am wondering. Is there any chance of a cloud save option or a backup option for something as simple as the challenges/feats/events done in the furture? The computer i had recently went the way of the dodo. I think i could maybe save my saves from the Hhd of it but i doubt it since my psu went bad and kinda PFFFT the whole thing. So thats why im asking if its at all possible. Even if you hinterlands cant put up servers for backups Is there anyway to put in an option for people to Put in their google drive or cloud or other cloud save info that the only thing the game itself does is hold that info and the player would have to hit Backup or something for it to send the data to the place of choice? Would something like this be possible or even really worth it? SInce you guys are working from home It could be a cool lil tinker project to see if possible. Even if you cant get it to work with the long dark Maybe If there is a TLD2 or another game you Make it would be a visable option then.
  19. Ya i search every last atom in a house and car. Prob like every other loper just for hoarding the item at which ever base they are using. Never found anything good in trunks but heck even a cheapo hat the cloth from it is valuable.
  20. Ok so its not in the watch tower thingy? edit: I did go to the upland after searching the area down below. Edit. ok i was blind. DIdnt notice the big metal tower like 10 second walk off in the distance until night time when an aurora kick up. >.> thanks for pointing that out.
  21. Ok I must be a blonde or they need to re-word the note at the New region. Where is the code? Note makes it seem like its in 1 of like 3 places? I came in from forlong. So is the code static in 1 spot or is it like the rifle/revolver and could be in a few places? If its static could someone please point me in the right direction? I would hate to have to travel to every place the note says just to find out its in the last place and a 5min trip takes like 2hours. Please and thank you.
  22. a few weeks ago i was watching a streamer on mixer play The long dark for the first time. I was helping him out the best i could without being a backseat gamer. I mentioned fluffy in the damn and we got to talking. It gave me an idea and a wish. Why not a special monster of each animal? Rocky the moose? Jack the rabbit? Winnie the bear? Since timbers are comming to survival in new regions so I havent came up with a name for the timberwolf.
  23. I have no idea. First time i was in Dp during the aurora so sorry i cant tell you when it started up. Im hoping that im at the light house the next time its lit up to get a screen shot from the light house while its lit.
  24. Nighttime shot of the lighthouse during aurora. Taken from in front of the old stone church. Honestly this is the best view i found in game.
