Fall of Melancholy Village [Custom Story Campaign]

Description
Caught within the darkness an ill man must find a way to solve one mystery on why everyone has disappeared and on why dark creatures started to plague these lands. Explore the Villages, solve the mystery. The notes should help.

|||PROJECT INFO|||
FoMV is a short side project of mine which tells the story about losing loved ones. A personal experience...
Inspiration taken from Cry of Fear and Alan Wake: Remastered all together. BETA Update is out and with it i can finally say i actually finished the first segment of what i wanted to portray as an artist and i feel satisfied with how it came out.

|||GAMEPLAY|||
Semi Open World Gameplay. You are tasked to search the buildings and gather as much ammo, health as possible to prepare yourself for rough Main Quest Fights. Exploration and mystic story telling will surely make you question your decision making on where to go and how to feel about the main character. It at times is like Walking Simulator but there are some encounters as well for you to beat. Contains a lot of driving around the world. Don't worry the markers are there. The rest will be left to your instincts on where to go.

|||FAIR WARNING|||
The story is quite grim so if you are sensitive person do not play this.
There are issues i haven't found so if you go for instance not listening to the objective marker you'll end up breaking the progress sequences.
Multiplayer is not tested as i have no one to play this with at the moment so i have no idea what will you encounter.

|||MULTIPLAYER|||
There are 16 vehicles that will spawn if you're playing Coop
Vehicles despawn in areas where assaults happen to prevent running away. They will spawn back when assault is over.

|||RECOMMENDATION|||
First play on Normal Difficulty at least to learn the tactics on how to survive the encounters and which ammo to pick and which to keep for later. For best experience play Singleplayer as that's what it was designed for. As well if you play on Serious Difficulty for instance you'd be able to only take 2 or 1 hit before you drop dead and you can't afford that as your health is very limited as well not just the ammo. Search the Side Quest's areas to get the best possible loot to survive the Main Quest areas. This way you wont struggle to beat the main story.

|||GENRE, THEME|||
The genre could be classified as "Horror" the only horror elements in this game is perhaps the loneliness and dark windy ambiance of harsh winter night.
In general the Theme of this is Dark, Post Apocalyptic.

|||MUSIC|||
Tracks titled "FoMV" means it was made by me "Dizellfest"
Tracks with other titles are in the description.

|||CREDITS|||
XXXTENTACION feat. Killstation - LIMBO (Audio)
Dated - Weather 12
Cry of Fear - Sophie

|||TV, RADIO VOICE CREDITS|||
I sampled the voices from other producer's music such as: Dated, Bones. All of them are credited at the ending credits of the game.

~These are the tracks I've used for the mod. The rest is made by me.

|||SUPPORT|||
The soundtrack i made is free and can be found on Youtube's link of the mod's Soundtrack. Link is my Soundcloud. It's there in the Soundtrack Video's Description. I make no profit out of this project .It's made for your entertainment.
If you enjoyed the story or gameplay or exploring the map, please leave a rate up. This will motivate me to push further. Enjoy.

Good map would have loved if it was a bit longer but besides that 8/10!

@Muleke_Trairao Awesome!

I have redownloaded the 00_All.gro file (almost all of the game's data) and resubbed after your last update.

I am pleased to inform that the map now loads correctly! Yaaaaaay!

Thanks for going though all this trouble, Dizellfest! :D Sincerely.

@Muleke_Trairao I found 23 entities with the model you specified that it can't load. I have pushed out an update again and this time there are no more Window01a.mdl files. Instead i saved as to FoMV_Window01a.mdl. It now either will load the map or give out a different error. Sorry for dragging you around like this but do take your time. Thank you. If we can fix this it will only mean that others wont experience the same issue. Thank you.

Same error as before. :(

Content/SeriousSamSM/Levels/01_Village/01_Village.wld: Content/SeriousSamSM/Models/PostSoviet/Walls/Window01a.mdl: Error reading from file.

Thanks for the help so far, Dizell!
This seems to be an isolated case, I'll see what I can do from here.
(You can still test your ideas, of course)

@Muleke_Trairao Pushed out an update. Resubscribe. I resaved some models in that area. Let me know what kind of error it will give now. As well fixed the navigation for the building block area so now the encounter enemies wont get stuck.

Now it says this: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/muleketrairao/screenshot/2459601353491050269/
And then my game gets revalidated again after I close it.

@Muleke_Trairao Resubscribe to the mod. I have pushed out an update. If it crashes let me know what it says. This time if it crashes it should say FoMV_Building. If it does crash and say that then i will rework the area with different models to prevent further errors. Let me know how it goes

Thanks for the help so far, Dizell!

I tried what you told me, leaving only the map and nothing else enabled, and it still brings up the same error message.

I noticed that every time I quit the game after trying to launch the map, my game auto updates/validades itself on Steam, so I gotta wait a while before I can launch the game again. Very strange...
I tried verifying the integrity of the game files as well, but the same thing still happens after trying to launch the map.

Will wait for your next solution, thank you. If it doesn't work, I'll try reinstalling the entire game.

@Muleke_Trairao Thank you for the file. I see that the game points out an issue within main game's file model not the mod's file. I haven't modified the building that it specifies. I am running fresh install of Siberian Mayhem same as my Steam Deck and both load the mod's map fine. Try this.
Launch moddable > In the main menu click Extras then click Workshop packages. Disable everything except this mod and then restart the game in moddable. See if it loads. If not then it's beyond my knowledge on why it points out that it can't load the Russian Building model. If it still does this let me know. I may have a solution that may or may not work. Cheers.
