Logical errors on Kingpin-Miranda quest

Fri, 07 May 2021 22:05

- there is no way to rescue her without killing police & pin group guys right? ok but when you let miranda meet up with bruce, bruce says "kinping interests the MOC list and can generously pays for the list". this is the logical error because you can not talk to him since you are his enemies now. from that moement you can not talk or trade with the pin group guy near the tank too. so is it an advice for the next playthrough?

i could understand that but we have also this;

- kingpin offers $50K dollars for the list but you can not find that list in atremo, calisto, port kip and sheraton (pls dont give a spoiler since i havent finished this mod yet). so if you conquered all of these cities then who needs $50K dollars which equals only to 3-5 days of my income. just peanut.

so these quests should be overhauled if you ask me.

Removing "Day" factor from weapon/item progress

Fri, 07 May 2021 21:35

hi, i am playing pretty much a slow game every time and i mostly reach day 30s right after finishing training militias in 2 cities and 2 SAMs (this takes a long time because you constantly get attacked). so when i return to fight after 30 days, i literally jump from shitty weapons to decent ones with scopes lasers everything. for example i am playing UC right now and tony's friend sells literally the best weapons and modifications. my merc turned from "dont mess with the vest scooter" level to terminator in a few minutes. i assume it is because the day is 32 and i was repairing items and weapons, training my militias all the time (making money too).

so i want see weapon progress connected with conquered cities, killed enemies or quests etc. rather than how many days have passed. or at least we should decrease it dramatically.

how can i do that?

trouble installing

; Tue, 04 May 2021 11:44

hey guys, I'm an old player returning to JA2 after not having a PC for years and I'm running into some issues getting the mod running on my new (second-hand) laptop. It's running Windows 8.1 Pro and runs the vanilla version with a couple audio issues (this laptop is horrid, yo) but otherwise is playable. I've tried for a couple days with no luck getting 7609 to run on my fresh GOG download. I can get the game to load after extracting the SCI to the game directory, but only the audio for the opening logos and the main menu.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just some general questions.

Mon, 03 May 2021 04:03

This may not apply directly to Vengeance, just 1.13, but not sure.

1) How do you do suppression fire? In vanilla, it was left button and drag across area you wanted to shoot towards leaving a series of little x's.

2) How are the bonus/malus you get from background selection applied? I figure some are done in the background when needed, but what about the ones that affect skills. When assigning skill points I don't see any increase in value once in game. For example, you have a +6% agility modifier from background selected and you gave IMP 70 agility score. In game it still shows 70 agility.

3) Does sleeping bag give you faster energy recovery when sleeping?

4x, 6x, 8x Scopes / Range Connection & Laser Range

Mon, 03 May 2021 01:27

i wanna know which scopes work with what ranges. i am seeking an answer like that:

4x scopes must be used between 8-12 tiles, 6x => 12-18 tiles, 8x => 18-28 tiles ...

"works" mean green accuracy indicator (cursor) in NCTH.

and i wonder accuracy numbers of guns actually are just a numbers at all?

because right now my sniper rifle dragunov (74 acc) with 4x scope should have more high cth than assault rifle with iron sights colt m4 (54 acc) in 20 tiles range right? but when i aim with my merc they are almost same.

---

and lasers, standart laser scope has 9 range so it means it works perfectly until 9 tiles then efficiency is decreasing after 9 tiles and like after 15 tiles it is not working at all? i wanna know the formula. for example in my uc game my mp5 has 18 range while the laser (aim-point projector) i attached on it has 25 range lol. more than that when i look description of that laser it says it is old laser device. is this a joke because the original laser has 9 range this is almost 3x better than that. also i can attach laser scope on dragunov but like i said it has 9 range. according this logic using laser on dragunov must be completely useless right?

i wanna be enlightened about this.

Install on Android

I read on your site that .18 will run on an android phone. I have been unable to find any apk or instructions on how to do this. I do see an android folder in the pc version, not sure if that is part of it. Can you please point me on where to go to find some instruction on how to get this running on an android?

Disabling names and spotters

Thu, 29 April 2021 21:38

How do I disable names and ranks on enemy without losing tooltips for their gear?

Also how to disable spotting or better yet binoculars and such? It just makes the game tedious looking around instead of the vanilla style crouching sneaking until action begins. Stracciatella won't do as 1.13 has features I really like, financial options for one.

GOG version with German patch, should I pick english or german version in stracciatella?

Thu, 29 April 2021 17:37

Hello everyone,

for nostalgia reasons I'd like to play the game in German and luckily some fine gentleman has created a German patch that exchanges text and audio in the English only GOG version. The game now shows version 1.12.1 in the corner. My question is if I should still pick English as the version in the Stracciatella launcher or German.
Or would it be better to use Stracciatella first and use the German patch afterwards?

I guess it shows but I have absolutely no clue about any of this so I hope I have provided you with some information that helps you answer my question.

Have a nice day ;)
