Problem with scope zoom? Thread - MISERY mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

It seems that all of my scopes are very similar in zoom level and not very zoomed at that. I play assaulter class so Im not sure if that has something to do with it, but I found a sniper rifle and upgraded it to a supposedly 5x zoom scope and it was exactly the same as it was before the upgrade, which is also very similiar to the zoom level of one of my standard assault rifles with one of the addable scopes you can buy from vendors. I have tried using Stiivais scope fix mod but this doesn't seem to fix the issue. Is there something I'm doing wrong with these scopes?

iirc it was mentioned that any scope with an adjustable zoom can no longer do so as it causes a bug using it, if thats what you are reffering to.

otherwise the easiest way to give your weapon the zoom you require is to go into you weapon cfg's and adjust the numbers in the line 'scope_zoom_factor' but remember the higher the number the less zoom you get, ie: 85 = no zoom at all, but 10 = a very strong zoom.

also note that this is for ironsights or fixed scope weapons,

for the scopes themselves go into the file addon_scopes in weapon configs and you can find the scope_zoom_factor for each scope there and you should still be able to use the same numbers for adjustment,

so basically trial and error

i hope this helps

Got the same problem with the trg, apparently 5x zoom is like 20x zoom and 4x is like -1000 zoom....

For those looking to correct the scopes a bit, there's been some work on that already. Moddb.com fixes the scope zoom for the scopes, though there is still a problem where the magnification upgrades for fixed scopes can make the fixed scope zoom too much or appear upside down. Combine this with the scope textures from the optional section of the Unofficial Bullshit-removing patch and you will be much happier.

Speaking of Scopes.... can anyone tell me how to Center the scopes?... they are all offset ... i aim... and it shoots to the left of the target...i just need to know the place to change the config line in the .ltx file ... or even the .dds file

The whole Scope window is offset...just need to know how to set it back...thanks

This is all using the arsenal overhaul MOD... and the AO Patch added as instructed....the game works like a charm... except for the scopes... im using iron sights for now

You need to take that up with the author of AO

Last I knew AO didn't work with misery
