Our 7 Days To Die World Map

Our 7 Days To Die World Map

The world map for the CTVI Zombies 7 Days to Die gaming server.
We are currently using our new V7 world map, which is for 7 Days to Die 1.0 - see what our V7 map includes below.

CTVI Map Version 7 (Current for 7D2D 1.0)

POI Count: 21,000+

Our latest creation, this map has been created by the version 1 RWG model with huge dense cities and additional community POIs for maximum diversity of buildings.
We have then manually added spawn towers, jail, large donor city/lobby in the middle, airport and some custom raised highways. This map will be continuing worked on and new version brought out with added variety in POIs.

This is just a sample of updates for our version 7 map. For the full extensive list of features, head over to our 7 days to die server page here.

World Map History

Archived history of our previous world maps, showing the scale of improvement and size increase from one version to the next.

Version 6 (Retired)

POI Count: 14,000+

We had an issue with timeouts on the server due to the server not managing slow connections properly. We wanted to rule out everything one by one; so we deployed a brand new Large city map. We then slowly introduced our mods again one by one and then started adding pois. It was later found that it was the server code not handling timeouts.

hat it meant was when we had a poor connection the server was waiting for the client to send an update. Which slowed everything down. We have since implemented a tight timeout and when a player has a low ping they will be kicked until improved to prevent impact to other players. We did have this set to 200 it is now set to 120.

Version 2 (Retired)

POI Count: 4,300

We worked as quickly as we could to tidy up the map from our starting version 1, removed the dumping grounds, and brought in roads along with increasing the POI count between the main cities.

Happy with the initial finished product we created a free-to-play server now known as CTVI Zombies.

Version 2 Map
Our (Now Retired) Version 2 Map

Version 1 (Retired)

POI Count: 4,000

Our Version 1 world map came from a desire to play a map that was a city expanse. To have lots and lots of POIs to raid. Unlike the standard generated map you just don't get cities close together so you spend ages traveling. The intention was to make lots of POIs and reduce the time wasted in-game.

Also, you cannot have every POI generated in-game. So we wanted to ensure that our map WOULD have every POI.
So... We started with version 1 of our map. We built several detailed cities, which I can tell you took several months to get a good amount of detail to them. Once we had a good amount of detail and a number of cities we started on some smaller towns. And once happy with the detail we decided we wanted to review every POI and placement.
To be frank this meant a dumping ground that we could go back to so the v1 instance became a bit of a mess while we worked through areas. We didn't add roads to save time so we could test, test, and test. Yes, lots of testing.
Once we were happy we released this to the general public to get feedback and see if this was something the community wanted. We'll the feedback was awesome and it clearly wasn't just us who wanted a map like this so it gave us the motivation to carry on.
