I am stuck with planting device in "The Shelter". Planting it opens some image of device with Russian text all over it with two buttons also being in Russian. Right button does nothing. After clicking left one, sine wave appears on that device image. There's no way to do anything with this thing and the only option is to Alt+F4 the game because even Esc button stops working. Any tips?

1. Polish
2. 1920 x 1080(but I also tried smaller resolutions and the same problems)
3. Windows 10 Home version 1809.
4. Yes, it works without any problems(using 800x600 resolution.

I tried patching both the full 1.13b version(entire game with patch already applied) from community and I also tried patching the base version I have(I think it's 1.11, TzarSettings doesn't even recognize it) with the link you sent here. Unfortunately the problem is still there.

From what source is your base Tzar game?

Hello, thanks, unfortunately it didn't help, the game still crashes. The game loads properly but when I try to move the camera it crashes instantly without any error(only screenshot of moment which triggered error is present).

Does this patch work with any language version?

Any idea how to run this on patch 1.13b? Currently it crashes on first frame after starting the game(actual game, not menus). I'm running the game via TzarRunner.

Will happily download from Mega, thank you so much for your effort!

Will there be a possibility to download the mod once it is released from other source than moddb? For some reasons there are no EU mirrors on moddb anymore and US mirrors have maximum speed of ~100kB/s.

Ok, I will do this tomorrow because I have some work to do before sleep and I can't access my PC at this moment.

I was using 85 FoV I think. I changed to 75 and it's still the same: Imgur.com

@edit:
I tracked and changed position and orientation params for both hands_ and item_ back to 2.1.1 values and now it's much better. This is l85a2 now in normal view: Imgur.com . Before this change half of weapon stock was visible on the camera in normal view.
Stock isn't clipping into camera anymore because stock is below the camera during transition to scope view so I'm not posting screenshot of that :P

Probably I need to change also point params below these but at least I got what I wanted :P

This is what is happening during aiming with l85a2: Imgur.com
Yeah, this weapon doesn't have iron sights but this happens during transition from normal view to scope. It looks bad and entire weapon looks too far from player's camera.

Anyway, how to restore that zoom from 2.1.1? :P

Is there a way to make weapon models close to the face again like in 2.1.1? Many weapons look weird and some look absurd like L85A2 which looks like player puts weapon stock on his chin and also weapon model is clipping into player's face when trying to aim. Once my favorite misery weapon now looks horrible and buggy now.

I'm ready to even edit config files but I don't know which params I need to change.

Other than this, mod feels great.

Will TAZ2.0 be fully compatible with 2.2 vanilla saves unlike previous TAZ with 2.1.1?

Nice so far. I played a hour and yeah, the optimization feels much better. Version 2.1.1 with absolute nature was extremely laggy and this version with absolute nature feels much better. Waiting for TAZ before playing more.

I think that the difficulty is completely fine now and is very well balanced. I disagree with making Misery more "difficult" because all you can do is to throw artificial difficulty by spamming enemies, making them bullet sponges, nerfing all player equipment to the ground and nerfing loot to the ground. Now player gets punished for every mistake and needs to be careful. If someone play good enough, he will know how everything works in the game and it will make it much easier and key to success in Misery is to use correctly everything what game gives you. It's just a game, computer program that gets predictable. There's a limit how far you can go with difficulty, after this you are just making thing stupidly OP and nonsensical, defying anything what comes close to "realism". After this game becomes nothing but fighting with numbers and config files. Misery is completely fine now when it comes to balance.

In my opinion more mutants would be just an annoying chore. Mutants were never enjoyable in my opinion in entire series, some were annoying, some were bullet sponges, some could be beat easily with specific tactics and you could exploit their bad AI with basically everything. Human enemies are much more interesting, they can headshot you and you can headshot them, they will hide, try to sneak in behind, it becomes much interesting and challenging, counting every bullet and knowing that wrong positioning can kill you because some bandit was sneaking in behind. CQC with silent enemies is superb. Much better than spamming shotgun at mutants that just run in straight lines or are bullet sponges.

You know, nobody prevents you from playing only with knife entire game if you find running with fully upgraded exo too easy. Isn't the point of that entire money grinding for it? If it's too easy then don't buy it. The point is to learn the game, finally exit the hobo stage until you can get top tier equipment so everything gets easier than before. It's why there's always progress in single player games.

Personally I enjoyed Wind of Freedom more because I can loot more and have huge stamina regen. I could get killed with two rifle bullets but I could run around with loot, setting traps for enemies and changing positions during combat much easier which gave me more survivability because I could just shoot enemies from behind while they checked the bush that I left while ago.

To be honest, CoC pretty made me sure that adding crap tons of maps is worthless when the foundation of the mod is weak. I played CoC for less than vanilla because of how annoying gameplay was. I played Misery 2.11 for few dozens of hours and I will probably more after 2.2 is released, definitely going for 100% good ending because it seems that heavy bugfixing was done.
I'm definitely sure that 2.2 will be superb.

Nice!
The only thing that annoys me is the sound of pistol slide during reload because the slide isn't moved at all during that animation.

But I think it should be fixed after release :P

Thank you so much for this info :D
I'm looking forward to it and I'm sure that all this waiting for 2.2 release will be worth it.

I'm hearing more and more about Misery for CoC. Will there be regular Misery 2.2 for CoP and CoC as a bonus or only Misery 2.2 for CoC? I'm asking because honestly I find regular CoP more interesting.

Is this even possible to get Veles in this mod? Looted around ~30 mission stashes, seen almost all traders and nothing. I've seen only to Bears, ~15 Echos in entire game and no Veles nor Svarog. Even Semenov had just Echo on body and Kruglov is immortal. It's bad running around with fully upgraded exo and hundreds thousands of Rubles in pockets but only with low-tier artifacts in belt because better detectors don't exist anywhere.

Also, it could be nice if you could make all stashes available without coordinates. It was probably one of the worst mechanics in SoC making exploration not worth much and finally it was scrapped in CoP, but you reimplemented it again, giving only extremely small amount of stashes CoP mechanics. Stashes are mostly crap anyway, getting energy drink and bread stash from bringing high end rifle is a joke and it's like that with every mission. It's always pistol + ammo, few faction patches or some food, rarely technician tools or low-tier rifle and nothing else. Once I had low-tier artifact.

Also, mission system is horrible. There's no info who's the target, the place of the mission and potential reward. It needs complete overhaul.

Other than this, this mod with newest patches is pretty solid but it has quite big flaws that need fixing. Nice job with implementing old maps!

M249 is broken. After fully upgrading it and using it in CQC(because it's awesome with mounted scope for close range) I noticed that durability of this weapon is insanely bad. I can shoot one mag(110) worth of bullets and the weapon lose ~3-4 bars of durability. Fully upgraded RPK74 with exactly the same upgrade path can shoot 5 times more bullets and is still in much better condition than M249. I hope it's just a nasty glitch.

Other than that, the addon is superb. It's a must-have for CoC.

I unloaded and removed all attachments from AK-105, FAR-15, and LR-300 but I still get CTD every time when loading the save. Crash log is completely empty. In fact, I unloaded and removed all attachments from all carried and stashed weapons...
