#Loot Settings Permanently Set On Impossible

I've played solo games on 'impossible' loot to see how it goes, but now all solo games regardless of settings are stuck on impossible loot. I can change the loot settings and even set it on easy mode with 'infinite' loot, but it doesn't change anything.

I test this by going straight to the hardware store and the shelves are always completely empty, not a single tool. I unistalled both the demo and the game, deleted both the 'vein demo' and 'vein' folders from my c:/program files/steam/steamapps/ to get rid of any config files, reinstalled just the game (no demo) and the settings remain even though all my other custom settings are reset.

What else can I do to clear any old game settings?

Give me about 30 minutes and Ping me by then I will have a game save started and can hunt it for you IF you do not find it.

I've tried the in-game admin panel to change the config there to infinite loot as well as using the vein.Scarcity.Difficulty = 0 setting in the console command prompt. In both cases the best I get is about 1/3 of the tools respawning (I teleport away from the hardware store, advance time 1 month, then teleport back to see what's spawned in).

Yeah, it doesn't seem to matter what I do. I've launched a solo game, a multiplayer game, they all say 'infinite loot' in the settings, but then the hardware store is empty from the start (all shelves completely bare). I double check the loot scarcity settings in the admin/config panel and it says infinite loot. Teleport away, advanced time 1 month, teleport back and a random 1/3 of the shelves are filled.

with the exception of not forwarding time... I'll go to the hw store and there wont be anything, loot the school and come back and there'll be stuff on the shelves

Yeah moving time may not effect loot may only effect Day/Night

I'm just trying to get a game that looks like the multiplayer servers where 100% of the tools are spawned in at the hardware store. I feel like my 'infinite' loot settings is only 'standard' loot or maybe less, super weird.

That would likely be dependent on how they handle loot. Have they opened up the loot spawn yet where you can change where things spawn? I know with Dayz it is not easy to configure at all usually having people breaking things. LOL

But I've tried this by hosting a multiplayer server (password protected so nobody can join) and 100% of the multiplayer servers I've been on have 100% of the tools at the hardware store. I can't for the life of me reproduce this.

#

I'm trying to make some content videos and I need them to reflect what players will see on a standard multiplayer server. I remember having all my solo playthroughs start with 100% of the tools at the start of the game, just can't get it anymore.

I can say for certain I've been on freshly started server and seen the hw store shelves empty or at least not full
