Been a quiet week meet up wise... Anyone about today? I'm on for a couple of hours now and in the north.

I'm around this afternoon for a good few hours.

Managed to get a couple of unexpected hours in just now with @chrisbmx116. Had a fairly good session, stocked up with lots of supplies and a decent amount of gear and then headed towards Berezino. We've just logged off in the orchard by the construction site if anyone is in the area and fancies trying to meet sometime later.

Aye, safe little run. We were both itching to interact with some other players though... I hope to be on later, maybe even this eve for a proper session. Keen to try lighting a few fires on the contraction site roof and see who it attracts...
Map is beginning to feel small too, we were opposite ends when we started off, got to Starey pretty much bang on same time then tacked across to Berenzino, didn't feel like it took ages either...

You should go check out the new places that have been added to the map. (The military base north of Severograd, Kamensk mines, the towns east and west of severograd) They're quite far away up north so that will probs bring the map back into perspective!
-

Going to check out those mines now...

Had a good old run around with Vesalius this eve. Covered the town hall at Novo with glowsticks and checked out the new army base right up in the north.
Last pic is from the end of the world.

Gutted I missed out...
I can only do Wednesday this week but it would be great to try and do another meet up then if folks are about.
In other, probably boring news, I think I am close to optimal settings after sol much tweaking and experimenting... I had it running near perfectly smooth (slowed from perfect after a few mins in game) with Normal AA and high FXAA... the guide is here:

And latest screenshot, which compared to the jagged shit I had a few weeks a go is a vast improvement...

Anything in the mines? I saw a vid from when .50 was in experimental but they didn't travel into the mine.

V's guy reminds me of this guy from the one good Nick Cage file: Bringing out the dead. He was a badass.

I'm gonna run through that guide later today... Got it running nicely on the last non-retina but "hi res" build-to-order MBP, albeit with zero AA.
-
• #1463
I think you can keep AA off if you are on a smaller screen but 1920x1200 @24 inches looks jagged as hell.
I'm prob obsessing over this slightly.

You need one of these... 12gb of video ram.
only £2,900

• #1465
unconfirmed, scrap that
-
• #1466
Oh, cant do Wednesday now, tomo?
-
• #1467
Yes!
Also, I did those tweaks you posted. Although enabling -winxp in launch parameters crashes the game and doesn't allow full vram usage.
I set my draw distance and whatnot a bit higher but without anti aliasing. Seems like a good compromise.
-
• #1468
Nope, very interesting as it stands but I've heard more work is coming. (pic attached)
also some night pics!

Check out reddit

Awesome work that! Can you link to reddit things? Its too internet for me to find...
TONIGHT FOLKS, ANYONE?
-
• #1471
YES. Going out for dinner with the dorris but will be on around 10?
-
• #1472
I should be on around then... but prob only until 11 ish.
Oh, I read somewhere about people will be banned for duping, not sure if I mentioned that earlier.
Either way I think I ma pretty over it, running for hours on end to find an SKS clip is half the fun!
-
• #1473
Hmmh, thinking about joining in tonight.
I'll have to do the FPS boosting first (which page was it on?) and probably will be bambi, but whatever.More post-apocalyptic nonsense!
-
• #1474
Do it man!
FPS guides here... my one and the original one.. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=337998778
If you are new/a bambi you will prob spawn near my current location... head North along the coast road if so and look out for a crane and construction site on the left.
Feel free to add on steam too. -

Worked it out...
I ended up after dying a couple more times (one dickhead shot me despite having my hands up and no weapon - whats the point?) on V's signature NE to NW run on a high pop server. I was running through a town when the same thing happened, punching noise, and a broken arm, I start spinning like crazy to check I am alone and I see a player firing at me... if he wants to kill me I'm done for as I have no gun and its an open town so I tell him to stop shooting and put my hands up.
Luckily he was panic shooting, I took a couple of bullets but survived somehow and patched myself up. We said our goodbyes and I logged out for 15 mins.
The next server I joined was one with crazy loot near EVERYWHERE, only prob was it was all crap, crow bars, fore extinguishers and welding masks. Worthless... bah. I think someone else was about as I found a crafted rucksack and a syringe full of blood... sadly I had to log out for the day... back in a good way physically, with plenty of food, but only a splitting axe and a shotgun that I'm not too interested in.
Will cary on West in search of a proper axe and an AK/SKS. Should be on tomo a little... are the tents long gone?
