Just Built My Hot Rifle.

Living in Tarkov for almost a season, came to realise that now I'm DEEPLY addicted in that situation. No longer to play casual games. Now same goes with my airsoft playing, and eventually spent another 130-USD-equivalent JPY (15,000-) for my rifle. HOLY SHIT THIS LOOKS BEAUTIFUL.

As of today (5th Apr 2018) I am 23-year old, how could I live so badly long... "I" knows?

However that's not the point - and what's my point is who I am now.

I am no longer a college student majoring in engineering - but a college student majoring in arts of literature. Yes, at the beginning of this year, having taken some examinations, and bam! Now I'm rusty-old-student among freshmen.

I'm still on my process to release "TRoR" CoC addons with dreadful world vision.

Recently I'm playing few games: Escape from Tarkov, mainly, PUBG, also mainly, Rainbow Six: Siege, this one's also mainly. That's why I was absent from modDB and even from Twitter (open account; @4ck_) but yes, I'm alive.

That's all for now, will update some more when I can - and when I have updates to share.

Happy New Year 2018.

Games; trying realistic fps games. Sporty games are not the type to me.

Jobs; got an offer to become a full-time worker, but gently declined.

Lives; friends from near states (prefectures) visit me, so I'm thinking of some kind of welcome.

Hope you have a great year.

Teaching mathematics is not too difficult, yet making an addon is.

Been playing PUBG and Survarium for weeks, and I'll be back on modDB to create TRoR_11a (since CWP seems to be coming) but all the games are hot right now - PUBG, there'll be more maps. Survarium, PvE is finally coming soon. CoC, 1.5 beta is out.

I'm busy on both working and gaming, but I'll be back with a nightmare of TRoR once again...

My Motherboard is GIGABYTE GA-H81M-D3V, which is usually taken in Build-to-Order PC in Japan, and mine is no exception of that. It features LGA1150 socket, 4 SATA ports, 1 PCIe x16 port, and some more PCIe ports.

Today (2017.Sep.28) my purchases on this PC has ended; I've upgraded to almost maximum.

CPU; (used to) Intel Core-i5 4440 (3.10/3.30GHz) - upgraded to Intel Core-i7 4790K (4.00/4.40GHz)

RAM; (used to) 4GB (for BTOs) - upgraded with I/O data DDR-3 12800 8GB, now got 12GB-512MB/s

GPU; (used to) on-board graphics, Intel HD Graphics 4600 - upgraded to GeForce GTX 1050

Display; Apple Studio Display (1024x768), BenQ GW2265 (1920x1080), iiyama ProLite xxxx(number unknown due to some stickers on them) (1920x1080)

HDD/SSD; TOSHIBA DT01ACA050 (500GB) - upgraded with SanDisk SSD (120GB)

Misc; got Logitech G13 Gaming Keyboard (Lefty), Macro-equipped mouse (left-click macro)

Decided to play Survarium regularly, of course with CoC and others.

TRoR_11a - will be in progress once Cooking function is out.

Life - there will be less food in any inventories, Traders, Corpses, and yours. Every edible item you happen to find is very important. It will be, of course, food, but also, a good income - scarce food is precious money.

Arsenal - No Traders deal ammunition much. Only a few know how to find pistol rounds, and no one is willing to deal rifle rounds - because it is useless, why? Most stalkers don't have rifles on them. It's heavy, bulky, and too expensive to maintain. Even though, there's a secret method to get some rifle rounds.

Anomaly - One scratch almost kills. More than that, it definitely does. Heavily protected stalker who dopes a lot of unhealthy drugs puts his hands on an artifact. After such struggling, the artifact he gets is priced 1000-200000 Ru. It may be a junk, it may be a treasure.

Fight - Naturally there are few weapons, so stealth action, sniper action, anything that consumes least ammunition is welcome. Don't jump into warzone with your guns blazing like shit, it'll be your victory for then, but later your bank account will suffer.

Wisdom - The finest weapon is your wisdom.

Listen up, masochists! (= who loves this difficulty)

This addon is going to be archived, but don't face with sadness.
Next update is going to be ready. And it's way too different from what TRoR_10d is.

Updated TRoR_11a will make the Zone like these:
1. Weapon is even difficult to find, as well as ammunition.
Most non-military-related facility has their trader with poor arsenal, even after Heavy Pocket achievement.
Only few military-related facilities (Army Warehouse, Duty Base, Agroprom Military Base) have "a little-little-little-bit" improvements. But it's rare to see rifle rounds.
2. Food is abundant, if you call dirty stuff food.
Traders deal with dirty food, also clean food. But even for dirty variants, they're rare to see. As of TRoR_10d (and _10e) it's still easy to find some on every corpse.
3. Your stuff belongs to you, with its holes and tears.
Repairing is costy. Mechanic asks you badly (this is what I'm wandering through settings, where to find its multiplier...) and every repairkit is rare and expensive.
And you now need "repairkit" to perform repairing - Also, some gun oil or glue tube can be used to enhance its performance, as well as your dirty bread (they give a few bonus on weapon repairing in TRoR_10d, did you find that?)
4. Artifacts are now cheap.
Why? Because not all are expensive - hard-earned ingots of whatever will be priced only 1,000 Ru or some.
There will be powerful, also expensive, artifacts like those in vanilla. However, 85% or more artifacts are just irradiated metal thing, all resembles to Gravi, Goldfish, Bubble, or anything like those - you can't tell difference at all. So bring one to your trader, let him judge its price, and GET DISAPPOINTED. How do you feel if your hard work is not praised? You'd say "holy F-ing S-!" but that's the life... Oh, I hope your life's way better than this.
5. Nobody cares your life, but you.
Medicines are, of course, precious, scarce, difficult to use. Obtaining one is up to your chance, consuming one is up to your responsibility (every medkit has different characteristic, as seen in TRoR_10d but even more), and maintaining your life is your must-do. If you're dead, you're DEAD. Death is your final chapter. I have never been dead so I don't know how it feels like, but I am quite sure that I'd regret if I died with medkit in my hand.
6. Once "cooking" of CoC 1.5 (or what it's called) is out, I'm gonna make it happen:
6-1. You need Gunpowder, Empty case, Bullets. Guess what, you know better.
6-2. You need Spring (technical parts, not artifacts), Bearing, and some more for a makeshift weapon (after I learned how to make 3D model, or at least to buy 3D software...)
6-3. You need Herbs, Herbs, Herbs, and Herbs to keep your body relaxed. (It never is functional, so you don't need to care - but for some flavour of life, you'd be happy to have such things)
6-4. You need Tea. Yes, a kind of drinking style with flavour from vegetable named the same, brewed from the plant leaves and coloured in either green or brown, and tastes some bitter but fresh. This is also optional function - and some satiation.
6-5. You need humour. Humour. There will be tons of humour. If you've played a certain game starring a computer hacker who struggles to fight for a revenge of his murdered niece, you should know what a vivid world looks like: there are a lot of different profiles. To make the world of such vividness, every (maybe most) stalker has some diary things on them - either a piece of paper, a true book-diary, or maybe in a form of PDA text document - with his bank account note simply, or some poem he felt a day ago, or how it feel to touch a Fireball with bare hands, or maybe, his girlfriend lost in his past memory.......... Everything is different. I want to make more than 10000 profiles (if I could) so that you never see all the variants in your real life. (But it means I CANNOT make it with my entire life...)
6-6. You need fear. Fear of loneliness. Fear of violence. Fear of death. Fear of starve. Fear of pain. Fear of bullet. Fear of insanity. Fear of empty. Fear of jamming. Your Fear shows up in a certain form.
Maybe you should build improvised-VR-kit with your small monitor and cardboard box.
Maybe you should tune up your physical skill to perform quick response at peak condition for longer time.
Maybe, you should give all your life up and let it go as it goes.
However, you can struggle to live if you TRULY desire. (as of _10b it was "if you desire")

Under the name of P.A.T.H.F.I.N.D.E.R., there are few works uploaded until now.

Fight For Freedom / P.A.T.H.F.I.N.D.E.R. / No.02 [7th mix] Youtube.com

Originally made to be used as "fan-made novel of alternative stalker" however, its dance-music-like sound seemed better to be a bgm for my video for some other projects.

From Quiet Night To Bright Rise / P.A.T.H.F.I.N.D.E.R. / No.X01 [5th mix] Youtube.com

Composed for New Year Celebration of 2017, and refined up to 5th mix until now.

White Angel / P.A.T.H.F.I.N.D.E.R. / No.Y01 (not available online as of June 21) [1st mix]

Short ringtone for personal use, at first. A certain timer application for my Windows has alarm function, thus I created my own alarm with soft sound (rather than annoying beep and chime that I hate for alarms).

Promise / Leepak / No.X03 (now WIP as of June 21) [1st mix]

As title goes, it is based on the promise I did with my first-friend. Nothing more to tell.

All my production can be used for other projects as long as all of these requirements, conditions are followed:

1. Permission granted before any of my production is used, by means of contacting the creator, me.

2. If the project is commercial, which means "by existing, the project makes money flows from one to another", the creator, I, gain a certain amount of license fee. Percentages vary, though.

3. If the project is non-commercial, the project shows the fact "this project is non-commercial" or any sentence that means it, with enough time to be read.

4. Agree that the creator, I, always own right to cancel any permission of usage, and to change these requirements/conditions because of nothing, and to force users to re-agree updated requirements/conditions or refuse to continue using the production. (Though it is insurance, as nobody is sure of how a production would be used.)

STCoP and AO can be merged partially.

"Partially" means like this; First, STCoP has AK-47 included. Also, AO has AK-47 included. Either of two AK-47s will be present. Next, STCoP does not have M134 Minigun, but AO has. So M134 Minigun will be added to STCoP+AO set, coming from AO. Third, STCoP has Glock 19, AO has more Glocks (maybe 19, and 18 and 21? I don't remember well), so they need to be merged well - eventually some may be lost, because of assignments of model data, or such kind of whatever.

Object 1: Merge STCoP and AO.

Object 2: Include ItemAddon, ITEMSOUP into the merged kit.

Object 3: Advance its difficulty by TRoR.

Object 4: Enhance its reality by some ways, some ways.

STCoP Weapon Pack, Arsenal Overhaul, Outfit Addon, ItemAddon, ITEMSOUP, Repairmod, Sleeping Bag, The Rebirth of Reality (Extreme/Ultimate), Gosuke Weapon mod...

All in one place functionally.

It DOES require good understanding of how an addon is created, or at least how they need to be merged to be used; will never be a simple put-in-and-go addon. It won't be easy to do.

Thus, once the addon is ready (if it becomes ready) there will be YouTube video, which shows all how-to, and there will be NO FURTHER support, and even the addon goes ARCHIVED on the same minute it is released - It looks pretty awesome, however it requires (again to say) good understanding of addon creation, function, and maintenance skill. I will never take care of issues like "does this work in xxxxx?" nor "it crashed, help me!" things - my answer is always "You deal with it, I don't. All I give you is the YouTube video of how it works on vanilla CoC with my PC, not any of yours..."

So, this Addon (untitled for now, but it'll be TRoR_11a) will be for "seasoned modDB stalkers". That's that.

All because it is a difficult matter - nobody whoever dreamed of it actually made it happen until now, I think. - Because it is complex, like something of mathematics. Oh, hey, come to think of mathematics, I found a nice thing. This question is conducted for 1st grade of high school; There is Point C, Point D located near the bottom of a paper, and you have "a compass for drawing circles", "a ruler of enough length to draw a straight line (can't measure length)". Your task is, to draw a perfect pentagon with Point A, B, C, D and E. Easy to figure out, though, just make a limit. All knowledge you had acquired BEFORE your age of 16 can be used - this will be, now, a challenge.
