Some general information:

If a mod in LiF:FV gets updated which has "options", then these options fall back to the default values in the modifications menu in the main menu.

So just go to the "Modifications" menu in the main menu and then select the wanted value in the related "Options" menu on the right side in the mod.

Then the selected value applies to the save game or to a new game.


Wenn ein Mod in LiF:FV aktualisiert wird welches "Optionen" hat, dann werden diese Optionen vom Spiel im Menü "Modifikationen" auf die Standard-Werte zurückgesetzt.

Also einfach ins Menü "Modifikationen" im Hauptmenü gehen und dort die gewünschten Werte im relevanten Menü "Optionen" auf der rechten Seite des Mods auswählen.

Die selektierten Werte werden dann im gespeicherten Spielstand oder in einem neuen Spiel angewendet.

Thanks for the useful info and I'm glad that my mod is still working with the new update.

I set the zoom at 500 and fine with a sprawling 1500 population village it just about covers everything. When zoomed out that gives me the biggest overview, I wouldn't wish to click on anything at that level of zoom. Moving in close to a section where I would wish to work and the clicks work fine.

Yes I guess the render distances and LoD settings from the game aren't really optimized for big zoom in/out features as the developers didn't code the game to do this. So the graphical issues while zooming out a lot, can't be fixed by my side.
I will check your issue that nothing can't clicked anymore, as I didn't experienced this and also no others reported this yet.
Erke Nov 11, 2019 @ 9:48am 
I also noticed that unfortunetly having this mod enabled, breakes the game as nothing can be clicked, like buildings and people... I had to disable it =(

Hello, great mod and thanks for keeping it up to date.

I am currently using it on a large map with 600 max setting. The first thing I noticed is that the render distances and LoD settings. When I zoom out to max the snow covering the ground starts to dissapear everywhere and If I tilt the camera most of the island is not visible due to the render distances.

Could there anything be done by your side regarding these issues?
I know performance is something to keep in mind but I think having options for these settings would be wonderful. I could also use higher values for max zoom.

Thank you again so much.

No problem and I would have really helped if I could fix this problem. Thanks and at least there is a temporary solution with an attached mouse, even if not that comfortable.

That's sad and I'm sorry that it seems to be a serious issue with touch pads after the last patch. So I suppose after your reports this is unfortunately a general issue even if no mods are used.
So unfortunately I can't fix this issue. :-(

Here is the latest patch thread:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/496460/discussions/0/1620599015871266193/

Here is a FAQ about reporting bugs:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/496460/discussions/0/152390648092048161/

I recommend to post your issue also there, that it can be investigated by the developers and to help also others who have problems with touch pads after the last patch.
kreia Dec 27, 2017 @ 1:50pm 
just tried it seems to only work no mods and usb mouse :{
Swiss Halberdier  [author] Dec 27, 2017 @ 1:10pm 
@kreia
Ah ok so with an attached mouse it works, but not with the touch pad. Does zooming work if you don't activate my mod? I mean without any zoom mods or similar mods. That would be interesting to know if probably there is a general issue since the new patch with zooming and touch pads.
kreia Dec 27, 2017 @ 12:04pm 
ive tried both having to resort to my old usb mouse i can upload my specs maybe i missed something?
Swiss Halberdier  [author] Dec 27, 2017 @ 9:49am 
@kreia
So it showed within the log.log file that is has been successfully loaded?
And the zoom feature with the touch pad doesn't work anymore?

That's really strange as nobody other reported that issue yet and I can't replicate this issue as it works with either my mouse wheel or a touch pad.

Please try again to load only this mod, then start your save game (ignore the warnings that the other mods must be loaded) to see if it works at least if used alone?

Then if it works, it must be definately another conflicting mod.

Or you could put this mod on top of the mod-loading-order within the mod loading windows. Then it should receive the top priority and other conflicting mods will be overwritten.

As this mod only touches 2 values (zoom max and zoom min), it is safe to put it on top.
kreia Dec 24, 2017 @ 5:00am 
Found it yes says all apart from successfully loaded
kreia Dec 24, 2017 @ 4:44am 
I can find save log and log but no log. Log x
kreia Dec 24, 2017 @ 4:34am 
As i say before the update and all other games my touch pad works brill
kreia Dec 24, 2017 @ 4:33am 
Il give it a try cheers swiss :steamhappy:
Swiss Halberdier  [author] Dec 24, 2017 @ 4:32am 
There is a game log file called log.log in this directory below:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Life is Feudal Forest Village

Open it and search for this entry below as I included in my mods a verify code if the mod has been loaded.

MOD: Adjustable Zoom successfully loaded.

It should show something like this:

2017-Dec-24 13:15:26 MOD: Adjustable Zoom successfully loaded. [ShareToScripts.cpp | 51]
2017-Dec-24 13:15:26 Mod 1030568945 loaded [ShareToScripts.cpp | 51]

Another hint is to try de-activate other mods and load only my zoom mod, then activate the other mods one-by-one for a test to see if some other mod is creating a conflict somehow.

Another small patch came out and I tested it again. I can zoom in and out without any problems in a new game or with an old save game.

That's bad that it doesn't work anymore on your side.

Please try the following:
Unsubscribe my mod
Close Steam completely
Open Steam
Subscribe to my mod again

I'm now away some days due to my xmas holidays.

Probably others who use my mod see this too and can verify if it works on their machines too.
kreia Dec 23, 2017 @ 2:20pm 
reinstalled , verified cache etc

All my Forest Village Mods do show now a little yellow exclamation mark icon below their names in the Modifications menu. It just means that I didn't updated my Mods since the last patch. But all my mods still fully work after the last minor patches. I checked all values and nothing related to my mods have been changed.


Alle meine Forest Village Mods zeigen jetzt ein kleines gelbes Ausrufezeichen-Icon unter den Namen im Modifikationen-Menü an. Es bedeutet einfach, dass ich die Mods seit dem letzten Patch nicht aktualisiert habe. Aber alle meine Mods funktionieren immer noch komplett nach den letzten kleinen Patches. Ich habe alle Werte überprüft und es hat sich nichts relavantes betreffend meinen Mods geändert.

I updated my mod to the last patch. I included a temporary fix for the problem of the scrollable lists within the mod options which happenend since the new patch.

Thanks a lot to Annothek for his solution.

Ich habe nun mein Mod für den neuen Patch updated. Ich habe einen temporären Fix für das Scroll-Listen Problem eingefügt, welches seit dem neuen Patch aufgetreten ist.

Danke vielmals an Annothek für seine Lösung.
Swiss Halberdier  [author] Jul 27, 2017 @ 8:57am 
My mod still works with the new patch. But unfortunately some of the options aren't selectable anymore due to a patch change in the scrollable lists.

I will investigate this problem and update my mod as soon as possible.


Mein Mod funktioniert immer noch mit dem neuen Patch. Leider sind jetzt aber nicht mehr alle Optionen auswählbar, wegen einer Patch-Änderung in den Scroll-Listen.

Ich werde das anschauen und sobald wie möglich mein Mod aktualisieren.
