There's a fix for that a couple of pages ago in this thread, but here's the link to that hotfix

Just extract and copy these files to your game directory, no new game is required.

I guess you're using the HPW addon and that has already been fixed, but you'll have to wait until the 1.8 release to get it.

It's a minor thing, but to correct it is very complicated and time consuming, each single weapon would take 1 or 2 hours to fix and I don't have that much time to spare ATM. Maybe in a later release(after this summer maybe) I'll have the time to do it.

Thank You for quick response, I appreciate it.I'm looking foward to 1.8 release.

Any ETA date for the 1.8 release? I didnt play the 1.7 version and I am anxious to get my hands on 1.8!

[R@S]

I had hoped to get the 1.8 released this week, but haven't had enough time to finish my testing session yet. And since I haven't gotten much feedback on the HPW addon I also need to do more testing and tuning of all the new weapons. I might have it ready this weekend, but can't promise anything, lots of variables that might screw that up

Any idea why the game crashes at start? I deleted my previous versions, 1.6 and 1.7 install folders, ran 1.8 instalation through mounted image, it instaled fine I guess, but the game now crashes when I want to start a new game (havent tried loading saved games, since I deleted everything). Was the Unofficial patch applied through the instalation itself?

It did if you chose that option with the installer, which you probably didn't and that's why you get the CtD. Sorry.

And before you complain about the need to select the English patch I need to point out the need for this system, otherwise we couldn't add the option for the German patch and GCP.

Awesome!

Hi I tried searching and have had no luck, how do I take over cities? Also how do I get the weapons master in Olvega to sell stuff to me? And finally why do the traders sell weapons they don't have ammo to, the trader got the Mosin–Nagant rifle, carbine and sniper but he doesn't sell the ammo.

After you killed all guards and soldiers talk to the mayor.

By doing missions for the rebels. Once you done enough, don't remember when exactly, he'll start selling you stuff.

Try killing a few bandits out in the forbidden zone, they carry the needed ammo at early CGL's. It's meant to be this way, it balances the game.

Thanks for the quick answers, ended up having to start over, turns out I didn't complete the convoy attack mission properly (I think the trader ended up dieing before I could talk to him from his wounds after the battle so I just continued to go around killing bandits)

So in regards to the weapon master if I decide to work for myself I won't be able to use him?

I meant the last question more specifically for that gun, it doesn't have a magazine meaning any ammo you get is from killing a bandit sniper before he uses all the ammo and he doesn't carry extra ammo on him, I was lucky and ended up getting 4 bullets because I shot the guy in the head before he could aim at me.

Installing was a breeze this time, and I like the changes in 1.8 so far, great work!
