Having an artifact in your inventory activates the effects of it. Equipping a container is to mainly deal with the radiation.

I'm playing Misery 2.02 and I'm seriously struggling to get the three Veles Detectors for Owls mission. I got one from the bloodsucker mission, I've done all other missions in Zaton and most of Jupiter, as well as spent a good number of days hunting for stalkers at the anomaly fields and never found another one. Any tips? Are there any stashes that have a Veles?

There's one in the cabin of the excavator in the village you visit with Yar

You dudes should check out Survarium, it's in CBT right now and it's pretty tight, $10 for early access and funbux, or you can enter a lottery for codes.

Yeah, turn off increased mutant spawn and set the spawn timer to at least 24 hours. Turning off randomized stashes also reduces the chance you'll come across an M16, silencer, and 200 rounds of AP ammo stashed in the rookie village.

To all you OGSE completionists out there, could I get a hint on where to find the docs that Fox needs to take to Sidorovich?

They're out behind the fence by the shitter. They're not really hidden at all, so as long as you're looking on the outside of the fence you should find it. Enjoy your new Saiga

Lost Alpha is really great, minus the fanfic level of writing. It's really fun seeing how much they've changed certain levels. Good luck finding the Bar on your first try. Pray you make it before it's dark outside.

Is there a way to adjust the timescale like there is in OGSE?

The main problem I had with Lost Alpha was they added a lot of tremendous amount of new area to the map, but it's not really utilized for anything so the practical effect is doubling the distance between objectives in a game that was already fairly sprawling and deliberately paced. Also the whole sequence of Dark Valley->helicopter chase->mines was not fun and seemed like it belonged in a different game. I finally got a persistent crash towards the end of that, where you have to steal some documents from the bandits for Sin, and I was almost relieved.

I'm trying Autumn Aurora right now, really enjoying it.

I guess that means I shouldn't ice the dudes holding Fox hostage?

When I went to clear out the big sewer plant infested with mercs while I was on Complete, it wasn't exactly easy but there was one point when I killed a guy just outside a doorway and five other guys came out, one by one, to crouch down and look at the body/ies without any concern for the fact that the killer was still a few feet away. Much, much tougher to clear the place out in Misery; I haven't even finished yet, I have to keep falling back.

And apparently brown grass down in the dry lakebed makes you 100% invisible. Makes for fun hunting, as I described, but during a subsequent fight I was startled by two guys looking right at me two feet away who still couldn't see me. No idea if that mechanic is in vanilla/Complete, there was never as much call for stealth.

Use the sewers underneath the compound to draw them in one at a time

I saved both Seriy and Mole in Lost Alpha but neither of their objectives are advancing past 'ask for info', is this something I should be concerned about or should I keep on trucking?

I'm also kinda annoyed with how much it takes to kill a soldier. Even with AP ammo I'm dumping way more than I should have to into them.

E: also one survived a direct explosion from an F1 grenade

The nugget is hecka good in TFW. The rounds are reasonably common and it's easy enough to get one in full condition. Decent amount of zoom and the rounds often 1 shot the defiance shitheads I'm tasked to kill.

Been mostly rolling with that and a super shorty. Found a suppressed fort-12, got exmags and a 9x19 rechamber and it pops dudes like no other

I think TFW makes Clear Sky my favorite game of the series. All of the maps and atmosphere of ShoC but with the updated mechanics of CoP. That and the nugget is one of the most satisfying vidya game guns I've used. There's just something magical about how it sends dudes flying backwards.

Does anyone know if there's a mod, or a read through of how to mod in the ability to hotkey the anti rads in SoC? Some of the random firefights get a bit annoying when you're stuck in radiation and can't dose aside from pumping the medkits

I think they were actually going to make CS like The Faction War but they realized way too late the current engine was poo poo. Then they moved on and made CoP and completely forgot about creating the perfect STALKER game. Either that or they knew if they made Clear Sky as intended they wouldn't be able to sell any sequels.

TFW takes all the bullshit out of the game and replaces it with no bullshit STALKER gameplay. It captures the essence and throws it at your feet for a pure unadulterated experience. In other words this is the perfect mod.

Does anyone else feel this way about this mod? I can't say it enough, or thank Ddraig enough for picking it back up. It's perfectly awesome and shines the true, INCREDIBLY FUN, glorious gameplay of the game and nothing else. I'm going crazy here this is so awesome. Now back to the zone...
Yeah, this deffo knocks ShoC/OGSE off the top of my list.

I just took the Freedom base, so that's three total factions out of the picture, including Defiance and the Loners. Finally got the orders to push out into the rest of the zone, but unless the bandits get a bunch of new recruit I think I'll have some trouble moving farther out, seeing as our resources are pretty thin.

E: also, for whatever reason there was a Loner hiding out in the freedom base. He was neutral at first, and I had the option to stick him up for his backpack, but a few minutes later he had turned hostile so I solved that problem with buckshot.

P sure Defiance is just 'loners participating in the war' so there's not any confusion.

So I started out as a merc but with the way the game's working I'm kind of thinking playing as a Bandit might be more fun since the whole "social" parts of STALKER seem to be mostly gone, might as well murder and rob everyone possible :black101:

It absolutely is. Capping everyone else, no questions asked is extremely liberating.

I got TFW for Clear Sky and I love it so far, but it crashes on me a lot without any reason...the game hangs, I have to ctrl-alt-del to get out of it.

Is there a setting I should turn off to make it less crash prone?

I think the autosave does it. Turn off those under TFW settings or increase the interval
