Thanks! :-D
Really nice!
I would love to see more mods like that, maybe then all those whining players stop bashing CoC just because it dont have proper storyline and more missions.
Well the storyline isnt the best
But that can ignored when you have such a creative community
At least it's not something like Lost Alpha. A lot of fans didn't like the story due to the "fan fiction."
Massive amount of bugs and literally lack of any optimization really help "feel" that amazing story :]
Not to mention that even in latest version I still found few totally useless graphics, bunch of photoshop files and HUGE amount of weird configs/scripts, that maybe work, but dont fallow any proper standards of coding...
Lets not be too harsh. LA took time, patience and skills to develop. kudos to them.
Does it matter if I use CoC story mode or not? Will I get all the new missions and NPCs either way? Thanks.
Everything should be available with or without the story mode on.
Great! What we really need at this point is more gameplay content in CoC (missions, dialogue, NPCs etc.), so Lost To The Zone is greatly appreciated.
I think need new game,yes?
Yes, new game required.
Do you also have issue that you can't download some files from EU mirror? I live in Poland, so choosing California mirror makes my download speed really slow (50 kb, where normally I have 8-9 mb)?
That's odd. Especially because I uploaded this from Poland...
I noticed that in Skadovsk (Zaton) as loner, suddenly all the inventory disappeared from both Beard and Owl. Don't know yet if this is a more widespread issue though. I tried shortly without LTTZ, and it didn't happen then.
I didn't touch their supplies at all. I'm pretty sure that this happens to Beard normally, so probably could extend to Owl, too.
Yes, it must be a bug in CoC itself. This shouldn't happen.
You can fix it by map exchange then sleep
I find it funny that someone rated all of my addons 1. Why bother? Have I got some sort of internet nemesis or is that just a common troll?
Salty scrubs, don't bother with them.
Nice work on this mod, i love the new dialog and merc characters 10/10
There are some trolls here downvoting everything, comments as well as addons - just ignore.
<.< (I voted "10" even tho I don't have 1.5 installed right now, but hey-- using your mod in 1.4.22 still counts, right? :D) >.>
Will this work with Call of Misery, and if not do you plan to update it to do so?
CoM would require its own version. I'll think about this.
Is this compatible with AO? Or DoctorX quest lines?
None of these addons is currently compatible with CoC 1.5r6.
It does work with R6 and OWR, all works fine. The new NPC, dialogs and guests are more than welcomed. Just the new economy system from R6 suffers, for merchants can purchase worn weaponry, its cost is higher, and the price of the new ones from r6 is reduced.
Is it possible that economy change to be made optional? Or removed?
Probably have to wait for 1.5 R7. The CoC guys have made it clear that the economy still isn't finalised, there are still issues with balancing. 1.5 is a WIP.
Ok, thanks. I`ll be waiting.
Faction patch is not spawning on dead loot for some reason. Almost all the loot I got from fresh kill was weapon + ammo. I check on death_items_by_communities but can't find a clue. What does death_generic do( difference between itemxxx 0,1 and 1,1)?
There is a task not clear. "Come back to me asap ok?" didn't even tell player what he wanted. I tried this task and it was finding a PDI task.
Also who would want 3 wood stoves at once? This is crazy.
My addon doesn't modify faction patch spawns. Are they really so rare in 1.5r6?
There's an issue in 1.5r6 where fetch tasks don't display all the info properly. Need to wait for an official fix.
I can reduce the amount of items for Roadside Picnic to 1-2 if people think that makes more sense.
I noticed way too many stalkers asking for wood stoves, and sleeping bags...like for 10 missions we had 4 stalkers asking for wood stoves, 3 asking for sleeping bags, 3 get back to me ASAP, 1 asking for weapons which I loved to do the most, and -1 asking for medicine which none cared to do.
Are the new artefacts the same ones from here : Moddb.com ?
Yes.
Talking to Sultan will cause a crash with this mod (no issue with vanilla R6):

About the "Contact Lost" mission, what's wrong with the dialog?:
Imgur.com
Fixed Sultan's dialog (facepalm).
And that issue with quest dialog is CoC 1.5r6's "feature". It happens even to default quests given by normal NPCs (checked that on vanilla with Librarian).
There's a PDA task that only says "Get back to me asap, ok?"
That seems to affect all fetch quests AFAIK, messing up their lines. I think it's an issue with the game itself, not just my addon.
Thx i will test the new fix, but looks like another problem has showed up.
When the bandits trader offer me a mission to kill few mutants and i accept to do it the game will crash

I haven't seen that mission on vanilla when i talked to him specifically so i assumed its related to your mod.
I didn't give the Bandit trader any quests, so it's not my fault this time.
When I go to military trader in agroprom he does not have anything to sell. And sometimes when I sell a damaged weapons they just mysteriously disappear. Does this only appear in my game?
That's an issue with the game itself, not my addon.
^ i can confirm, it happened to me many times without this add-on.
The biggest update yet. Features a thorough revision of quests, some additional ones, Immersive Fast Travel support and more.
Great work! :)

Thanks a lot! That was fast :)
So does this mean Immersive Fast Travel works with 1.5?
Librarian was able to move me from the Hidden Base to Rostok successfully, so it seems it does.
Version 1.5.7 barman crash to desktop?
Do I have to install Immersive Fast Travel 1.0[1.4.22] to avoid crash?
If you want to use fast travel then yes, instal the original addon and only then my compatibility patch. Including the whole addon in my own would be unfair to IFT's creator.
You could ask him if it would be okay in order to make things less crash prone, and integrate as an optional element to the mod. Immersive Fast Travel has not been updated since 1.0 so it's not like it's a total crime.
