Joke Mod

7 days to die joke mod

Welcome to Joke Mod!

Version 5.0.0 – Updated and working for 1.4 Full Release ONLY

THIS MOD REQUIRES THE 0_TFP_HARMONY FOLDER! DO NOT DELETE IT!

Also note: the new challenges we added and vehicle passenger seats are a work in progress. These will be updated over time.

This mod is about 85% a joke, 10% serious, 5% butterscotch ripple. It has been an idea for years and is finally a realization. It literally started as a joke and grew from there. The mod has been made so that players can have a serious playthrough and not just log in for 5 minutes, have some laughs, and never play it again. Although some people might still do that. Rude!

This mod was thought up/created by RizzoMF and Zilox with consultation from Khaine and killerbunny264. Thanks also to our testers over the versions: RedDaBoo, Dobbers, Jbirdgaming_, Hijarlz, darkness_from_above, Ecktos, peachykeen80, KP_The_Stonehammer, Amilla_Silverline, Southern38, RedstoneDad, Dyne, Kode, Celebanto, RoyalEagle_Kingdom, and Rowen_Blackwing_Gaming . Also, a big thank you to my community for the ideas and support!

Community members from whom ideas were stolen, er used: turbodiarrhea_, killerbunny264, Hehahigh, drbananastbagsyou, Hijarl, CloudZayne, xpenguin84x, Dobbers, and anyone else we may have missed.

Из списка зомби на F6 какой то зомбик выдаёт ошибку и не появляется. Честно не запомнил даже) Помню, что в конце списка.

No, Izayo’s mod conflicts directly with work done to many of the XMLs that are changed here. A good rule of thumb for Izy’s work, if the overhaul mod doesn’t specifically state it will work, or if there isn’t a mod specific version of Izy’s guns mod, it likely won’t work.

I downloaded the mod this morning and am getting an error when accessing any loot container. I verified my game and the mod are both v1.2.
Can I get some help on this one? I can’t seem to find a fix anywhere.

😀 Using overhaul mods with other mods is your own fault. Overhaul mods change too many things. Naturally, overhaul mods are not compatible with other mods.

Sorry, but this sucks. You can’t complete Two Bit Tower T6 due to invisible z’s. While the last two groups are marked they are just not visible at the place they are indicated. 0.2m distance, no objects, all destryoed but not to be seen…not the first time but every time i tried this quest. never had this issue on other mods.

Hi.

Great mods, we just start exploring it using V4.0.1 when you released V4.0.2. Any hint what has been changed? Do we need to start from scratch or simply continue our saved game after upgrading?

Thx.

Just to add: The Dew collector is too small, only 3 bottles. Not worth building as better of cooking murky water

Install the mod yesterday thru mod launcher. Played a 1 hr, everything was great. Paused the game for about 20 mins.
Came back and the color is gone! Game is in black and white.
Logged out. Logged in. Still no color.
Logged out of mod launcher, logged back in, still only black and white.

Seeing comments about missing traders and such. Make sure you are playing on the most current version of vanilla which is 21.1. You can join the Discord to always know what version of the mod and vanilla to use.

mod is amazing same way as older versions but so far i finde only one isue that in some cases makes me struggle with my base designs and just general gameplay iam not sure its game it self or mod but it feels like character hit box is out of place lets say when you going up stairs that is only 1 block wide you cant realy move that much around stairs and it just forces character to the right side of the path and you cant get closer to the wall + as well it looks that you are way higer than you should be lets say normal door way is 2 blocks tall and it looks like that you are cliping into 3rd block but not including that mod is amazing

Is it the feature of the mod to remove traders or are traders not spawning on the map because of bug? The supposed locations of traders are all just empty patches of land now on both joke map and pregen maps as well.

I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying this mod. I may only have a couple thosand hours in vanilla, over 1200 hours in Darkness Falls and now just 200 hours in this but it has become my favorite mod. Well done with the laughs and craziness but I love how hard this can be at times. So many cool things that show up but I have to love the Macy Day Parade creature, The floating clowns. I love shooting them out of the sky with my camo sniper rifle. Oh god I laugh way to hard everytime they hit the ground with a big thud. Just call me the clown killer. LOL.

Love the mod! The tweaks to the game progression are some of the best I’ve seen so far. The bloodmoons in this mod are very hard, and the uncertainty of finding key recipes really changes the game. Like they said, it’s not for everyone, and if you take this mod lightly then the joke is on you.

Wishlist for Rizco: What if we had a lance mod for bikes that let us go jousting?
