Cool, well I have made it to Green Mountain and the crappy military base there... I don't think it was raided but it had nothing you wouldn't find in a town - no rifles, no hand guns, no military gear apart from the odd daft hat.
Tweaked my settings according to this guide, looks nice and is running smooth (so far, I think).

Sure you're not going from a third person to first person server? Every so often I do then get a scare as I start as a bambi, solved by logging out and joining a third person server again
-
• #604
Yeah, I think that's it... Had a look on reddit and that came up a lot as the cause.
Also, @chrisbmx116 that guide is really handy. It ran like shit at first because of all the anti aliasing and stuff but now its super smooth, albeit with jagged grass and bushes, which is fine.

Yeah, I really don't understand graphics setting. Well I do, but don't know what's best. I had everything on high at first and it barely ran, then I optimised it with some auto thing and it went all ps1 but smooth. Finding the sweet spot is the challenge I guess. I went with near exactly what they recommended.

Right I have food poisoning, so if anyone has any charcoal tabs/food/water and in walking distance of Zelenogorsk police station I'd appreciate it!
Otherwise I can go to the well in the town and keep drinking water to throw up whilst staying hydrated, apparently throwing up speeds the recovery. Although this method sounds way riskier...

MFW I ate a raw steak...

I'll probably only be able to do tomorrow eve if someone can though, away this weekend...

I'm in the area (NWAF) but no tabs. Just logging on now so if I find some I'll head south to you and message you on here.
Feel free to put an axe in my face.

whenever you come across t shirts or bandanas use the action button to rip them into rags, they (currently) work just as well as bandages.
-
• #610
Yep, been keeping an eye out for those too. They seem to get ruined faster than proper bandages though.
-
• #611
I only ever use rags, never bandages, not sure why...
Top tip- Carry loads of spare clothes. You can put things inside the clothes you carry. I have a spare Gorka jacket and trousers and they take up 4 slots each but can hold 6. I think you have to drop the item to get at the items within the items (Yo Dawg) but as long as you dont put stuff you'll need in a hurry in them (rags) it'll be all good.
I think we need to save @Vesalius. He gave me loads of kit for no good reason last night, pretty much stitched himself up, then ate the raw stake I put on the fire. I might be on Sunday or Monday so will hunt out some charcoal tabs and try and get to you!

I'm on my way down to him now. Just picking up some stuff. I found another compass too!
-
• #614
Pretty much!

Just lost my guy due to a server refresh. 1 km from Vesalius' location. Sorry man.
-
• #616
You can get it back surely? All is not lost?
-
• #617
Tried the same server, immediately exited and all the stuff you're supposed to do.... Nothing. Its a bit of a show-stopping bug if the game randomly erases your character.
-
• #618
Yeah not good, I have never ever had it though. I have logged on and found myself asa "Bambi" but logged out straight away went back to my previous server and my character came back as it should.

You are not logging off anywhere daft are you? Like the middle of the NWAF or Cherno?
-
• #620
No! Usually small towns with no one around or the woods.

Dom to answer your message i still have the MP5 so get over here!!

Which reminds me - I have an MP5 mag if anyone wants it. And a sawn-off shotgun. And an AKM + mag. And a C527. And a Makarov + mag. I don't want any of that stuff. Just a fireaxe for now. I'm holding out for salvaging pristine parts for an M4A1 from heli sites.
-
• #623
Lets rescue Vesalius and get Dom the MP5 and mag. I'll try to get tabs and in place Sunday for Mon/Tues meet.
I have a spare pistol and rounds if anyone needs that. -
• #624
you guys should turn this into a thriller novel / book ... it makes good reading
just need to work on a middle and an end -
• #625
RIght I'm around now if any of you angels are?
For ma boy Well_is_it
I'm happy to give you the compass in exchange for some bandages - always using those things. I used it to get to my current location but could have gone without it. The scale thing is weird, can't get used to it either.
