I did read that you need to start a New [underlined] game.

Glad I can be of any help, let me know how to send it to you. You probably know all about it already though.

How can I make those little white dots (current crosshairs without scope) a little bigger in this version?
I like the + ( _|_ ) type, combined with a circle too.

With an open world like this there are so many possibilities/ variants [I think this is what I like best about this game! So addicting!], yet it must be a monumental task to work out all the bugs!

Sorry about goofing up your name in my 1st post.

Had to blow-up Veronin cause I like that sniper rifle too much to give it up, and I didn't want to drag that side job in my PDA around or reload back to before taking it [the job]... I played the "take down all of Duty" while I was at it; that was fun, must have hit a Stalker in the process, cause I had half of them coming after me too! Silly boys, they and the bandits are like mosquitoes!

Anyway Thanks again for your time! I do appreciate it!

Thanks for the tip!

I solved the problem by going back and completing the side jobs I already had taken on, before going into Yantar. I also reduced the texture quality to medium. The max and high settings were making my cooling fans work overtime... (I didn't like the extra noise, a little annoying after a while)

I noticed the map in the radar (lower left) is off (building placement), but the markers work. Also the barkeep has a job of taking down some Mercs in Rostok... when I get there no one is around.

btw: I started keeping a log of the errors I encounter and what I did to resolve it. I don't want to post it here, but if you're interested in it let me know and I can send it.

Got a new crash now: (seem to be quest related)

Expression : error handler is invoked!
Function : handler_base
File : E:\stalker\sources\trunk\xrCore\xrDebugNew.cpp
Line : 749
Description : std: out of memory

This happens at Yantar as I am taking on some quest and completing them. crashes as when I save.

Took on the first 4 jobs solved 2 (I am already carrying it), save ok, take on 2 more solve them (same as above), crashes on save.

Thanks for the reply and tip. I fixed it, just a missing texture file:

Expression : fatal error
Function : CRender::texture_load
File : E:\stalker\ sources\trunk\xr_3da \xrRender\Texture.cpp
Line : 295
Description : <no expression>
Arguments : Can't find texture 'wpn\wpn _crosshair _aimpoint'

I didn't like the crosshair at the beginning (too hard to see) and I tried to change it unsuccessfully and somehow I forgot to put back the original file (most likely got distracted by the kids). I guess it didn't have an effect until now (obviously I was messing around with the wrong file. I would still like to make the crosshair easier to see.

I'll keep that in mind about the side jobs, so far I have been taking on as much as could find...
Keep up the good work!

Dear Shadow Storm State,

I really enjoy playing your mod, great weapons and everything, and getting rid of the "1 day dead line" on side jobs was super smart! Problem is the game crashes at the snipers in the "wild territory". Same place every time: As I approach the entrance to the snipers building. Made some personal tweaks (damage, weight and artifacts) but early on in the game and it didn't seem to cause any problem until then... although it did crash a couple other places, but was able to get by. Any idea why I get this?

Please keep up the good work. Looking forward to the new release. Thanks a bunch.

You also need to change these 2 lines in the file gamedata/config/creatures/actor.ltx:

max_item_mass = 400.0
max_walk_weight = 450 or 500
