one time a dude was following me around with his gun ADS for a while, I assumed he was going to shoot me but wanted me to get antsy and shoot first. I didn't have anything on me (didn't even spawn with a backpack lol) and eventually a PMC shot both him and me so good job wasting your time dude.

Alright well I've always been curious about this, and the singleplayer mod looks positively fascinating and like an excellent way to kill some free time. Are there any particular mods that really stand out as must-haves for SPT, especially in terms of just QOL stuff? I can't say I really know much about the game, so I figure I probably shouldn't get too crazy with modding every second thing.

I can't say I really know much about the game, so I figure I probably shouldn't get too crazy with modding every second thing. Starting to feel like the SPT salesman in this thread since I don't play live anymore. You'll probably want to set up the current version and get a little familiar with it. It's easy as hell to install and mess around with adding and removing mods and changing settings. They're currently working on the new version that will have lighthouse, dailies, etc. but it'll most likely be a few weeks to a month. Their discord is pretty cool to lurk and watch how they make SPT. Pretty sure they're always looking for mature people that can do whatever computer poo poo they do to contribute. They also ask if anyone wants to risk their account and do a live dump of raid data which would help them speed up the dev process a lot but may/will get your BSG account banned. Or dumps of lists of completed quest lines and maxed traders, no risk in doing this. Here's my post from earlier. In addition to the ones listed below, I'd add Hideout Architect and maybe Andrudis's QoL and Quest Maniac mods if you want to add more quests.

I will try to next time remember to shout that who the gently caress is incoming before blasting their rear end. Maybe the PMC's don't want to murder me instantly either? A weird thought, after having been conditioned for years that they're all out there to kill you. Anyways, I guess I need to buy an another junkbox. I got to lvl8 yesterday and one ia full already

I can't say I really know much about the game, so I figure I probably shouldn't get too crazy with modding every second thing. My must haves are the bigger keytool and any of the all in ones, like the KMC server modifier mentioned earlier to specifically do things like remove the scav timer and hideout construction times etc. The random loose loot generator is a good addition too, as the default occurrence of loose loot is p low. I also particularly like zicoman's ai config, which is just pre-configured settings for its two dependencies, finn's ai tweaks and lua's spawn rework. All together, it adds new scav and pmc spawns to the maps to shake expectations up and changes up what gear pmcs spawn with to add more variety, in addition to the AI changes generally making enemies a little more challenging. finn's also comes with a GUI so making your own tweaks on top of zico's fairly easy once you get a feel for what you want to change.

A weird thought, after having been conditioned for years that they're all out there to kill you. One time on factory I sensed someone behind a closed door (med tent extract) shuffling around and reloading. I yelled 'Why the blep are you camping FACTORY" and he said he was just loading sniper magazines for sniping skill. I say "COMING THRU POSTMAN PAT" and extracted, he was a naked dude with a m700.

Someone caught me mag drilling at the southern gate behind the first door so I could be sure I hit the minimum time (I had two kills but am always paranoid of run-throughs on Factory). He decided to push me even after I said I would extract, and I ended up popping his head with ~2sec left on my clock when he peeked some barrels with his flashlight on. I wish I'd pushed back to take his tag but I had no idea I'd killed him

With RTX 3080 my gpu usage was like 40-45%. FPS was around 50-60, 8700K. Upgraded to 12700K and now FPS is 90-100fps. GPU usage is maybe 70-80%? I have to look at the CPU & memory settings and see if I can eke out more performance. But clearly Tarkov is very CPU limited.

There are some differences between the two but the only major one is the magazine; and it turns out the Bizon's helical mag was absolute dogshit that was a huge pain to load and would jam constantly and was expensive to manufacture. I have to assume that if they were going to add the helical mag they'd have done it already; and that it would suffer the same drawbacks as the real thing, so nobody would use it.

I don't like that they made quad stacks and up jam more often AND took the STANAGs off the Flea while leaving them as part of Gunsmith. I found mine in the wild but what dumb set of decisions.

I died twice a day ago and I got all of my insured stuff back. Nice. First some scac sniped me at customs, two tapped thorax nearly instantly. Players are never that good at shooting. Another time a player killed me in Customs but I got to keep everything too. Who knows. Maybe he bled out and died after our combat too.

Players are most definitely that good at shooting, you just haven't run into them yet, but you will. Also, if you die to an AI scav and it's pretty late in the map or you died in an out of the way area, chances are you'll get all your gear back, as AI scavs cannot extract off the map and thus cannot steal your poo poo. They can loot your guns, but that ironically makes it more likely that you'll get them back, as other player scavs are less likely to kill them for their stuff

I was in one of the warehouses in Customs. Upstairs with a window to the large yard to east, with the Unknown key hut. On the eastern side of the map. I had seen a scav there before and I wanted to look at if I could spot him and snipe with my 4x scope. Well he saw me first and 2 tapped me before I had time to react or do anything. I died upstairs in the office room. 2nd time I died to a player in some bush, we had kind of a long firefight and he kept following me around Customs and I tried to shoot him (with my 4x loving scope again). 4x is too long for Customs, really. Well I kind of learned my lesson since I died twice with the 4x - but kind of not, since I got all of my stuff back both times........ Anyways, now Tarkov feels really enjoyable when it runs smooth. I use the 2.25X Nvidia DLDSR resolution so the game renders at pseudo-3840x2160 and downscales to 2560x1440px. 90-100fps and GPU usage around 80-90%. I'll have to figure out if I can somehow still increase the fps and get GPU usage to 100%.

The old school Nvidia Control Panel has Global 3D settings and a tab for game specific 3D settings. From the global 3D settings tab you find the DSR section. There you have traditional DSR and Deep learning DSR settings. When you enable some DSR modes, nvidia creates a custom resolution for selected DSR modes. Then you fire up the game and select the custom resolution. I have a 2560x1440 display, but the Nvidia Control Panel DSR setting created a 3840x2160 custom resolution. Deep Learning algorithms do some dark magic and produce a nicer looking image, when it first stretches a X*Y resolution image to 4K, filling the missing pixels with DL magic, and then downscales it to 2560x1440px.  I really don't know how it works, it just seems to work well.You can separately adjust the DSR "sharpness" from the same global 3D tab.

My weekly task is a Find and Transfer but the items are random and not craftable. Is it usual to have items that are so unreliable to acquire? They are: - Wilcox Skull Lock head mount x4 (I think sniper scavs spawn with these at night) - Hazard4 Pillbox backpack x5 (almost never find scavs with these) - GP-7 gas mask x5 (also fairly uncommon) Seems difficult to do this outside of getting very lucky.

This is starting to become a habit with me. I don't play the game for months, many months and I do my first scav run back and I find this guy one tap clapped to the head literally two feet away from Industrial Zone Gate. Last time it was finding three PMCs who had died to Glukhar. This assures I will have bad luck for my next eighty scav runs. Really, really don't like how the turning with inertia feels at all.
