Re: What's Going On In Your Unreal World?
Following a fairly peaceful first two years in the URW, my Finn decided to spice things up a little and wreak genocide upon the Njerps. This had been going splendidly, until the last camp I hit turned out to be filled with Njerp archers, who turned out to be rather good shots. I took over 20 arrows, nine of which penetrated my armour. I was 60% wounded and unable to move, with the last remaining Njerp (who was not having a good day either) at under 20 yards away. We spent a hilarious ten minutes exchanging arrows, which we loosed off in all directions due to our wounds and fatigue. Finally I got the bugger in the neck, and the job was done. My hands were still shaking for a while after! Now I can look forward to a couple of weeks making stakes and withes while I heal up. Still, only three Njerp camps left to deal with, two of which are close to Reemi villages. Hopefully I can recruit some likely lads from them to help me out with the battles. I've never got this close to removing the Reds before, wish me luck! April 17, 2023, 07:49:55 PM |

Re: How to get early game food supply since fishing nerf
I expect Plotinus means pine mires and open mires. These are swampy terrain tiles with few trees, so easy to see and follow your prey and nothing to block your shots.

Re: does shutter cause a heat loss?
Not at present, though people have pointed out in the suggestion forum that it would be a nice thing to enable.

Re: Agriculture Harvest
Harvest down leaves the crop on the ground, harvest and pick puts the crop into your inventory. So using harvest and pick is quicker!

Re: Snares need yarn now?!
Don't settle too close to a village, or they may consider your stuff as belonging to them - after all, it's on their lands! I think having at lest three overland tiles between you and the village is considered safe, but I usually settle a lot further away than that. If you need a paddle and the village has an axe in it somewhere, you can drag a tree to the axe then make boards and a paddle without picking up the axe. This should not anger the villagers.

Re: Snares need yarn now?!
Look for fords to cross rivers, if it's cold then prepare to build a fire to warm you when you reach the other bank. Take along 3 branches or twigs. Don't take more if, as with some fords, you have to swim - the extra weight can drown you! Some lakes are massive, others you can easily go around. April 26, 2023, 08:55:40 PM |

Re: Agriculture Harvest
Originally the game left harvested crops on the ground. It was changed recently to give the option to put them directly into the inventory, as farmers were complaining of massive RSI! EDIT: If you want an easy introduction to the game, you may want to look at my "Guide for the aspiring hunter" in the Guides & Tutorials forum here: https://www.unrealworld.fi/forums/index.php?topic=6814.0 It's a bit powergamey I know, but it will teach most of the game and give you confidence to try a harder start the next time!

Three years in the Unreal World
For the first time, I have a character who has completed 1095 days without dying! Three years! To celebrate, I am Lore & Craft Skills Agriculture 00% 17% Seems to be only sowing that raises this. Building 15% 42% Built 3 cabins and a lot of fences! Cookery 60% 93% A mix of all cooking styles. Herblore 30% 98% Quite a bit of grinding involved here! Fishing 60% 60% Hardly done any fishing so no surprise. Hideworking 90% 100% Lots of skins and furs tanned. Timbercraft 15% 92% See above about building cabins and fences. Physician 75% 78% Lots of wounds healed, on dogs and allies too. Trapping 80% 83% Traps only used to protect homes and crops. Tracking 70% 99% Includes 20% from game course. Weatherlore 00% 46% Grind, grind, and more grind! Textilecraft 80% 84% Lots of repairing looted clothing. Carpentry 85% 88% Making stuff. Lots of stuff. Physical Skills Skiing 30% 100% Skiing on zoomed in map raises this faster. Stealth 60% 100% Practise this around trapped birds etc.. Climbing 15% 100% Climb fences. Lots of fences. Swimming 00% 100% Careful here, cold or fatigue will drown you. Combat Skills Dodge 75% 81% Try to find an angry badger to help with this. Shield 00% 00% I use a bow or a battleaxe.

Unarmed 30% 36% Kicking trapped birds in the head. I started in summer as hurt, helpless and afraid, as far to the north east as I could get. The first year was as a hermit on the far north eastern coast, using only stone and wood for weapons and tools. Furs and leather are not enough for a winter up there, I was going hypothermic and getting frostbite all the time. I decided for the second year to return to civilisation, and get myself some nice warm woolly undies. I built a cabin between two large marshes, and hunted and traded. The third year has been dedicated to expunging the scourge of the Njerps, and thus far it's going very well. I've destroyed all their villages, but I am still finding camps of warriors.

Re: Three years in the Unreal World
I conquered the environment in the first year, even though I only permitted myself stone and wood tools and weapons. I used some mod made by some bloke, By Gum, I think his name was. Or something like that, anyway! The BAC mod allowed me to make boards, albeit by a rather arduous process. With much hard work and patience, I was able to make a cellar and a small cabin, both of which were invaluable. I even managed to stock the cellar a bit, despite stone knives wasting some three quarters of the meat from each kill. I usually get bored and restart by this stage too, but this Finn was the best I have ever rolled so I decided that for the second year I would trade for some good tools, build a large cabin and explore the metalworking options in the mod. This kept me interested. The third year I decided to destroy the Njerps, which I think is now done - though I keep finding camps here and there so I may be wrong. My plan now is to wall up my substantial quantities of loot and my animals, then go back to nature. Start all over somewhere around the lakes and marshes north of the former Njerp lands, naked and with nothing. Eschew all human contact, and see if I can go from a stone knife and axe to making a forge and smithing my own tools and weapons. I think it is possible to do, so am giving it a shot. EDIT: Having gone naked with nothing into the wilderness, just over two months later I have managed to produce a handaxe! Buoidda did a fantastic job making sure that everything needed for metalwork can be crafted by a player starting with nothing. For anyone who fancies trying it - you need patience. Splitting firewood from a block with a stone axe can take over 10 hours for 20 firewood, and that's with master level timbercraft skill! Now to forge my own broadknife, then build a cabin before winter comes again... April 27, 2023, 07:05:09 PM |
