Artefacts hunter failing Thread - MISERY mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

I found all 23 artefacts that are not quest items, I didn't get the achievement.

I never sought that achievement, not sure how it worked. Did you get all 23 as missions for the trader?

I can remember getting it before in early MISERY versions, but just through normal gameplay and not seeking it. I haven't actually hunted any artifacts for a few thousand hours of game play(or sought any specific achievements). MISERY downgraded the earned rewards significantly, so besides earning an extra clan as enemies (which I just did through killing them) or seeking a particular clans friendship (for the armor gifts since some armors have much better camouflage than others) I didn't play for achievements. kcs123 , Kruno, do you know if we did anything to impact this achievement?

No, that achievment is not changed from vanilla, as far as I know and can recall. As much as I can recall, artifact spawns are random, with some probability to spawn specific artifact at smart terrain. Other than that it should be possible to get that achievment.

Sorry, I no longer recall exact file where could be changed artifact spawn.

I don't even know how the acheivement worked exactly. If it is simple possession of all 23 at some point, just spawning them into inventory should trigger it.

Yes, it is simple possesion of all artifacts available in game. However thinking about it, it could be issue that new artifact container feature. I think it need to be picked from the ground or from trader, stash or dead body. It might not be possible to count, if you picked up container with that artifact and removed artifact from container within your own inventory.

Later in the game traders start to sell more artifacts, I think all of them are available except compass and oasis. Soy you don't need to exactly search around for them to get achievment. Having them spawned in inventory, moved to stash and picked back should also work.

lego57645 Try putting all the artifacts into a stash, then taking them back out and see if the achievement registers. WARNING Take some radiation protection before hand and be prepared to pay the medic to heal you or heal yourself after. I'm pretty sure having an artifact inside a container will prevent the engine from registering you have them in your posession. The down side is while you have them unshielded you will rapidly become irradiated. Maybe that's why I never tried to get that achievement again LoL.
