Aye

First for damage calculation needs to be looked into.

lol i didn't know how to get around the spam filter. Thanks mate

dunno if it embeds for regular Veeky Forums but it does for people using 4chanx

Ah that's fuckin rad. Thanks for the tip, Stalker

BAMP

Muh stream keeps goin offline and I don't know why :((((

>tab back in
>"oh look he finally got it working"
>stream immediately dies
rip on buddy

Where can I find a Veles/Svarog detector in CoC?

try using OBS
obsproject.com/

also watching your stream while you're streaming is just taking up a tad more bandwidth.

ecologists/scientists, stashes

OBS doesn't like my CoC for some reason. And ya, idk how to monitor if it crashes or not without having it up though

>OBS doesn't like my CoC

i never had a problem hooking or streaming coc with OBS. streamed for like 3 hours straight a few weeks back.no problem using game capture.

i don't use studio though, just the classic version + a couple of plugins.

usually i dont worry about my stream dropping out, if it d/c's OBS will tell you it lost connection. otherwise it's probably on twitch's end.

I'll give it another shot at some point ye

who was in the wrong here?

What are your opinions on call of misery?

you were.
for playing as bandit scum in the first place :^)

>ecologists/scientists
You mean vendors or looting?

their traders usually have them, or u can save and reload until one shows up.
don't think i've ever found higher tier detectors on corpses.

I want a call of pripyat mod that would work with SGM 2.2 all in one that adds in prone+better crouches aswell as crawling so skirmishes are more fun.


Does it exist?

Alright boys. Looks like the Chicago ingest server for twitch is just a piece of garbo. Stream is stable now if anyone is still intereested.

open gamedata\configs\creatures\actor.ltx

find these values and edit them to the below
ph_box1_center = 0.0, 0.65, 0.0
ph_box1_size = 0.35, 0.65, 0.35
ph_box2_center = 0.0, 0.2, 0.0
ph_box2_size = 0.35, 0.2, 0.35

if you don't have on in your gamedata, this is the one in the 1.4.22 patch files
hastebin.com/ruwixisoqa.makefile

yeah don't mind me, i'm half asleep thought you meant for coc

those values should still work with SGM 2.2

Disregard. It works for twenty minutes and then stops. Fuck. I'll stop shitposting about it tonight.

Stalking with nato 7.62 is expensive.

Time to turn in the FAL? Do the WARSAW pact countries even have a 20-30 rnd auto/semiauto battle rifle?

Not really. What's the point of a battle rifle in the zone anyway? A 5.45 or 5.56 rifle does just fine, and a Vintorez or SVD is fine for longer range / higher damage.

DAMAGE

Which a Vintorez or an SVD does just fine with much more available ammo.

WHAT

EAR PROTECTION MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU USE IT? STOP SHOOTING THAT FAL WITHOUT YOUR EARS ON FAGGOT.

I like the versatility of a battle rifle across medium to long range. You can deal with just about anything with a couple of well aimed shots. I pair it with a sawn off SxS for fun. I like that it's not meant to be full automatic but you can go full retard with it in a pinch.

Sex?

>tried to headshot someone
>doesn't die
Unrealistic
shit game

You should headshot my dick instead!

whats the better weapon pack to use in CoC?
AO or STCoP?
pls respond

What the fuck has this general degraded into

I prefer STCoP. It has accuracy problems, but there's a tweak to fix it. Some people say the tweak doesn't work, but I still get killed while dashing cover to cover so it's fine by me.

AO

Is there a torrent for Call of Chernobyl? 3 gigs is a little bit big to download from moddbs servers imo, Im afraid itll be at like 2.7 and get interrupted somehow.

...

mega.nz/#!pMZmRbbQ!Cq6E4SGsdYnQp67bwT20VVReYQXB9ptWZDLqwUlz83M

STCoP it is then

Which game settings do the CoM players here use? Do you use item animations? Have you enabled Psi-Storms? Do you risk Ironman?

Have fun never getting hit then

Good enough, thanks user.

Can you fucking think for yourself for one second of your shitty life

someone needs to hit you

Are you hitting on me?

...

>vintorez does as much damage as 7.62x51 REAL FUCKIN NATO

you're probably one of those no guns delusional fanboys who makes 9x39 retardedly op in his mods

I never said it does as much damage. If you want more damage than an assault rifle, it does fine, and there's a lot more 9x39 in the Zone than 7.62x51.

>no guns
My Mausers would like a word.

go read what you posted then

>Which a Vintorez or an SVD does just fine with much more available ammo.
In reply to
>DAMAGE

I never meant to imply that 9x39 equals or supersedes 7.62x51 in damage, just that it's a better choice for a high-damage round due to availability of ammo.

> and a Vintorez or SVD is fine for longer range / higher damage

Which it is.

I'm referring to higher damage vs. the baseline of an assault rifle in 5.45 or 5.56. No where did I state that 9x39 is equal in damage to either 7.62x51 or 7.62x54r, just that it's higher damage than an assault rifle.

i clearly wasnt following the reply chain correctly then. my b

You good m8.

Thoughts?

doesnt embed for regular Veeky Forums

t. regular Veeky Forums user

>real fuckin nato

>If you want more damage than an assault rifle
Except 9x39 has worse penetration than conventional intermediate/rifle cartridges, so it's useless against targets in heavy armour.
It is a great choice for stalking thanks to integrated silencer and heavy bullet that is enough for mutants and lightly-armoured enemies like bandits, though.

I'm going to disable the brain scorcher.

What armaments should I take?

Shotgun with slugs. Optionally, a pistol for backup.

scar + mossberg is my vote

oh but you have very little ammo for the scar and none for the vss

welp ak12 + mossy then
you are very likely to come across ammo for the ak-12 vs the scar

You got shitloads of 5.56 so, 416 if you're a gay, 550 if you like vaginas.

That isn't all my ammo. I have a lot of 7.62x51 in the army warehouses. I have stashes all over the place.

550 is pretty sex, huh?

Take all vodka bottles with you and force the neutral ending. Drop them during the skirmish, the NPCs will collect them and be too drunk to fight.

>550 is pretty sex, huh?
Yeah mane. Easily my favourite weapon in the vanilla lineup. Shoot's 5.56 accurately with a reasonable rate of fire so it doesn't hit the ceiling when used full retard.

Plus aside from that it's made of Swiss jew gold.

scar and mossberg is my vote then

normally I'd agree but even if you pack as much as you can carry you still probably want a 5.45 or 5.56 for the brain scorcher/chernobyl NPP hike. you're gonna rune out if you can't replenish.

>you're gonna run out
Don't shoot everything that moves and just sneak by?

That might actually be viable for me. I only move during night, where my Gen. 2 night vision virtually guarantees I sight enemies first.

>I only move during night
Even more reason to do it. Enemies are also easier to spot at night because they all use flashlights. Basically, you will only need ammo for CNPP interiors.

autumn aurora is pretty shite

What mods are you using?

I know I sure loved fixing 8 bugs to get to the start screen

STCoP, accuracy fix, OA, and DrX's quests.

I'm in the same boat as OP and have no clue which overhaul to go with

So I took the scar on a trip down to Cordon to turn in a quest. From the bar through Garbage, to the rookie village and back I used fewer than 30 rounds, and with those rounds bagged 7 bandits, 2 milfags, a boar, 2 bloodcykas, and a burer. Only one human (one of the unarmored bandits ironically) took more than 1 shot to put down, and the bloodcykas and burer took 3.

Funnily enough, one of the random bandits I killed had another scar on him.

Where do I get an SR25 in JP2?

and why the fuck does Screw never refill the flamethrower to 300, only 150?

Enjoy that.

will it be shit?

Is there any way to stop the scroll position of a container from being reset upon taking an item?

Anyone else having issues with the game sometimes crashing when killing someone?
I think dynamic faction relations might be causing it but I'm not getting a log after the crash.
