(request blue British Shorthair kthxbai)

Agreed with everyone on this page.
The game feels broken without the Colonist Status Bar.

DELETE all the previous mod out of the mod folder, before you unzip/copy the new ones.

Except "Core" of course. And if deleted don't forget to exctract it from game distrib.

the core needs to be deleted too and re extracted since this mod do modify the core a bit

The Core folder in this mod pack does not contain all files that are present in vanilla Rimworld. I think you should let it overwrite and don't delete the Core folder just like the instructions say.

[%APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Ludeon Studios\RimWorld\Config]

Absolutely love the modpack!.... but every time i save, i go to load and its a black screen... whatever i do it just stains white blue whatever? anyone else have this problem? note i haven't reinstalled, and didnt really get the install instructions so sorta just put them in the mods folder and loaded it up

You need to add the modsconfig.xml file to the Rimworld config folder in the Windows User directory.
Press the Windows Key + R and paste the following in the window that appears: %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\Ludeon Studios\RimWorld\Config
This takes you to the right folder, now delete all the files there and place the ModsConfig.xml file from the Hardcore SK modpack in this folder. See if your game gets loaded now. If not you're going to have to start a new world (or delete the Saves and Worlds folders next to the Config folder). If there are still any problems, delete all your mods except "Core" and reinstall the whole modpack by copying the mods from the latest SK modpack to the mods folder.

How would you set up Prepare Carefully to make this easier? Might be good for players who want the game to get up to steam faster and have a little easier time. Including me i guess 

I think you're right. Things don't need to be over complicated if you want to play hardcore. Should be fun and accessible as well.

skyarkhangel, this is amazing work. Best mod pack ever!
Do you have an indication on when 1.8d will be released? Sounds very promising and i want to start playing Rimworld again.

I really like this mod but I recognized that in rainy nights you literally can't see anything which is both unpleasant when you want to organize things at night and obstructive if you have to fight. Please alter this a bit so it's getting less extreme.

I believe this is as intended, and like it that way. I suggest adding a mod with improved lighting options (indoor and outdoor) to address your two concerns.

I agree with the OP, those super dark nights are a great idea, but as of now they are too dark (100% black). I even thought it was a bug at first. It's a little silly that everything still works as normal but you can't see anything anymore. Also it interferes with many of the games effects such as rain and the numbers underneath resources and names of colonists.

Unfortunately that's not the solution because you can have materials other than concrete as a base, like wood on smooth marble. You can even have more than 2 materials overlapping.

The beauty on the flooring underneath interferes with the flooring on top of it. It all gets added up. Paved tile on concrete is only -2 (0+-2), while on marble it's 4 (0+4). Similarly wood on marble is +14 (10+4), etc. Now, since you can't remove some tiles, like smooth marble or concrete, it will almost always mess up the beauty ratings. This mod and beauty is incompatible. Might be difficult to fix if you can't change beauty ratings during gameplay.
