Misery bug

[fangorn231]

I'm currently running the misery 2.02 with the quick fix, and it seems that any game I try to load after I completed the first hunt the chimera mission will crash the game. but savegames before I accept that mission,so long as its not during the waiting period before 3am, work fine.

anyone else notice an error like that? It crashes to the desktop usually, but sometimes it just freezes on the loading screen

hm, odd thing is that if I just load up the save before I took the mission, then immediately load up the save after its completed THAT works.
edit- nevermind. that workaround doesnt work anymore either. that worked twice then started crashing too. I was hoping I could stabilize the post-mission save by traveling to yanov and I couldnt even get in to try that

I also got a huge problem. Like despite the fact this mod makes spawning rates of mutants and all insane to the point you can get gangbanged by a huge group of mutants from dogs-snorks-bears etc. Just randomly.

I call that just overly stupid spawn rates. But yes. My issue is now that during the one shot mission. Serbins spawn has CONSTANTLY spawning duty squads. Basically as soon as i teleport to the sniper spot.

Serbin gets mauled by duty stalkers. And i tried taking them out. Twice taking them out before the mission. Then setting up ieds to see if they blow the duty people that spawn magically while i appear at the sniper spot. And they did. But turns out a whole extra squad. Spawns right after that.

And kills serbin. So hey i cant finish the mission to get the good ending regarding the mercs and all. Seriously these mod devs are incompetent in how they made the mod. I have experienced this too much.

So many things that just interferes and fails something for a mission. Like i described. Its a addicting mod yes. But ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Learn not to fix spawns like that. Or make mutant spawns so insane that magically you get a massive army of them finding you out of the air. And mauling you.

And it sucks this problem. Because right now i cant complete a mission correctly. Due to the mod devs. Thinking its smart to put a squad of duty spawning at that spot where the clients for the mercs spawns during the meet. And setting it so the spot will have a instantly spawning squad if you start the mission even if you take the previous group.

Well I fixed it by going to http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-misery/forum/thread/bugs/page/100#902015
and downloading one of the available save corruption fixes. Despite the claim that one of them will let you continue the game without starting a new game, I still had to.
Since then, the game has been a pure joy to play. Most stuttering has been releaved, loading times are reduced and I've only had one save go bad. And it was fixable by just going to a quicksave before it and continuing on without a care.
