RRCM (Rico)'s video: S T A L K E R - MISERY 2 1 1 - A Black Road - Ep 83: A Lab X-8 Raid

The 83rd episode in a "Let's Play" series for the MISERY 2.1.1 full concept mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Call of Pripyat. In this episode we head to the Yubileiniy service center on a dark rainy day with the intent to raid Lab X-8. Once in the lab, we navigate through anomalies and mutants as we search for documents containing details on the secret experiments previously carried out there. Feel free to share any tips and knowledge on the game that I might have missed, as well as any S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mod suggestions :-) Recorded using ShadowPlay and edited using Sony Movie Studio Platinum 13 . Videos edited and saved in 60 FPS and 24 Mbps.

This playthrough is using the Assaulter class and in the "Black Road" mode where the protagonist starts in an inhospitable area of the zone with only a knife, artifact tongs, and a military ID. Starting with episode 6, the infinite NPC ammo option is set to off and the "health_restore_v" value is set to "0.00000 ;0.0001". The health restore value tweak was done per the advice at this thread: http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-misery/forum/thread/loosing-health Starting with episode 18, patch 2.1.1 is used. Starting with episode 32, the Performance Texture Pack is used. Starting with episode 34, episodes are available in 60 FPS and lower graphics settings (described near the bottom of this description) are used to achieve usually 60+ FPS. Thanks to TheHurtShoulder and GERM 3000 for sharing a scope condition changing bug workaround. To avoid the issue: 1. Remove the scope from the weapon you are going to stash 2. Stash the weapon and scope Thanks to Litosns for pointing out the following steps to get 3rd person mode working properly in MISERY 2.1: 1. Make a back up of xrGame.dll 2.
