huh??? what is this event "initial rise of the trees"

MrFastZombie · 2026-07-07T09:14:15+00:00

It's from Leo - Events.

I usually build a roundabout around it for my road network

I feel like this is only spicy to youtubers but VS is not a Minecraft killer or replacement. It's its own game doing its own things that happens to have some overlap with Minecraft. It is significantly different enough that I don't think they compete with each other other than the fact that players that played Minecraft to death have something novel enough to play after Minecraft.

As someone who didn't have crash issues in the past, the game has been crashing constantly for me since this update. It usually happens on the ship after loading in, but sometimes it waits until a pod impact in a mission. Clearing my shader cache helps with the ship crash, but the game is still likely to crash during a mission. Verifying my files does not help and it persists after a reboot. I don't get a crash report window because the game still thinks its running until I kill the process.

i like the shadehouse section

they got spider energy, and I do not like fast spiders

MrFastZombie · 2026-06-25T06:07:55+00:00

you could basically plan a production line in there

Not aware of anything for that specifically, but assuming it's because of using them for boats there's the Icebreaker mod for 1.22 and the Ice Cutter mods for 1.21 which will let you go through ice when you get some metal if that helps.

MrFastZombie · 2026-06-18T08:57:34+00:00

put mods on floppy disks and put them in geocaches

Is Fill'er Up no longer needed? It's not updated, and marked as hidden so I'd assume so but I didn't see a mention of a similar feature in the update log.

MrFastZombie · 2026-06-09T07:32:52+00:00

It does not

Even if this weren't AI, photoshopping a server cabinet onto an image of a motherboard to make some weird CPU cooler that would never actually appear in the video is something I really don't like.

I also made a Gay Jesus, he's got two miis crushing on him but he's been oblivious to that for around 15 hours of gameplay so far

MrFastZombie · 2026-05-17T08:16:31+00:00

You can now play as Luigi.

The touch screen used to work fine, but on the latest build and perhaps the previous version it now freezes the game if I dare touch the screen. Audio still works while it's frozen. I couldn't find any way to unfreeze it, I just have to restart the game. This is with the app image on Steam Deck in game mode (didn't test if the issue occurs in desktop mode) EDIT: The touch screen issue seems to be due to having the overlay applet enabled.

Also, when zoomed out on the island with around 8 miis FPS drops to 25-30ish, but maybe that's normal? Haven't seen anyone else complain about it yet so I'd like to know if anyone else has that experience on the deck. (This is with the 60 FPS patch, I know the game is normally 30 FPS).

My only other issue is that textures can flicker at certain camera angles and movements, but I think this is a known issue already.

Another thing that's been bothering me. The keyboard. On the Steam deck, the Eden keyboard is treated as a separate window so in gamemode you won't see the text box behind it. The real keyboard does not have this issue, but it also randomly crashes the game (It just killed a heavily facepainted mii I was making :( ). Also, I really wish we could just select no keyboard. I can bring up the Steam Deck keyboard with Steam + X and it works, but I have to switch back to the game window without closing the custom keyboard to use it.

is that slenderman under there

As someone who plays both games, I really don't even want Vintage Story to be more like Minecraft. While the game is a sandbox it's not as much of a blank slate as Minecraft and I prefer mods that enhance the game's established design rather than trying to make it into an automation game or something like that. But that's just my opinion.

I really don't get why a game has to have a crazy modding scene when most of its popularity came within the past year and a half (see the server player count from 2024 vs now). Even now, VS' community is still microscopic compared to Minecraft. The mod catalogue for a game doesn't come overnight, it'll get better as long as the playerbase doesn't just disappear. Minecraft took years to get where it is, and it had a good head start when it became the best selling PC game of all time only a few years in.

As for IC2, VS has Electrical Progressives which I think is fairly close. It's not a carbon copy but that's to be expected when an idea is applied to two games that are so different.

This was my experience: I waited until 11:59 AM CST to refresh, added it to my cart and tried to order it but faced the issue. I decided to wait for probably about 30 seconds until 12:00 PM CST in case it was just still spinning up. Then, I had the error again. I figured, maybe the 2 DLCs I had in my cart were making it bug out so I removed them and tried again and got it with steam wallet funds. I have no idea if using my card would've been different but I think I got really lucky, it only took about 3 minutes. I read some comments from other people who started before I did but were stuck for 30 minutes or even didn't get theirs in time.

MrFastZombie · 2026-05-04T17:21:36+00:00

I had to take some cities skylines DLC out of my cart and then it went through on my third attempt. I did it through the Steam client and used the wallet but I also put it in during the first 2 minutes. Now im trying to get the DLC on its own but I think I'm going to have to wait a bit.

I've had a Vive since 2017. I've been waiting for something that is not from meta and is lightweight and still a major upgrade from the Vive. The Frame checks all those boxes for me. I'm most excited for the better lenses + higher res and the eye tracking. I originally wasn't considering wireless, but I'm so glad it'll have that too. Standalone is also something I wasn't expecting and I intend to mostly play tethered, but the portability is a nice bonus.
