Hi guys!
I've played the game four times already, I find it awesome and each time has been different, as I discovered new stuff that I couldn't previously.
I installed a weight mod during my last play through since I tried to gather everything I could and loot every single body.(

I tried using chests and run back and forth to sell the contents but it's a good bet that I could run forever like that since every time I enter another area, new tasks and new enemies appear and my backpack gets filled in no time without reaching my stash in the area even.
Right now I went at least ten-twelve times to each area, visited the labs, Agro underground and Prypiat at least twice(stadium only once since I have problems saving the games in there after re-visit and I can count on auto save only(1.0006)).(

I can't seem to get more than 3 mama's beads and 3 koloboks but I would surely like to have five of each if that's possible. Also I don't get any more stash markers from dead guys and I wonder if there is a limited number for them. I could also find only 3 moonlights I think and already traded two of them and the two immediate urchins for Seva. I wish I knew earlier about the suit repair but I didn't so I just sold my previous suits whenever they got too many holes.
Do you know where I could get more of them?
TIA

According to EpoS, there are only 3 mama's beads and 4 koloboks in the game: Sid gives for Father Diodor's killing, stash in Yantar, on the crane; stash in Pripyat, in a garage; stash inside X10.

Yes.

Moonlights tend to appear at midnight near Electras anomalies (Agroprom's undegrounds, Wild Territories' railways), and disappear at dawn. However, they may disappear also if you save with them appeared and load after that.

...some artifacts only appear at night? Whoa.

Oh well I had already killed Father Diodor along with the other two, too bad I didn't know. And Sid doesn't want much- to run from the beginning till near the end and back but I guess it's worthed. Thx for the heads up.
I'll try AMK, I understood there can be "made" artifacts, seems cool.
I waited at the Wild Terr( my favourite map) and got several Sparklers and even a Flash in the tunnel but the Moonlights weren't there. I'll try Agropom.
Went for the third time to Prypiat and again I can't save:( . I got popped in the head by some Monolith just when I thought everything was good and decided to have dinner at the stadium:cheeky:
Edit: game hangs or I get ctd if I linger for too long in Prypiat. Known issue or instability?

Did you look at the railways, near Electras? A Moonlight definitely was there, along with some cheaper types. The Moonlight was hard to notice with all those sparkles though, it was in a nook if I remember correctly. There is at least one Moonlight in the undegrounds too, in the corridor with Electras. Just remember to look after midnight, they appear precisely at 00:00.

How about Z.R.P. mod? AFAIK it includes bardak's "bug fix attempt" mod (it may separately exist only for RU version, I use it). The bardak's mod fixes all crashes (at least I think so) as well as problems with saving/loading in Pripyat.

I stayed in Pripyat for hours on 1.0004 + bardak's mod, no CTDs.

I got two of them over there( Wild Terr), one next to the bandits' spawning point and a second one a little bit farther along the same railway.However I can't find them for a second time even if there are several game days in-between.
Btw Fang's Exo is really cool, with sec level night vision and I got it fully recharged after opening the door with the decoder, when the poltergeists appeared. I just let them fry me at the best they could and my armor was back up in no time. This game is so addictive. I have to start it again now.Oh well...:)

Yep, I got one more in Agropom and several flash/sparkler artifacts. Couldn't play much lately though, I still have to re-check the Wild Territory
