More mystery-stashes: The one near the tower in Wild Territory. When I step on the marker, there is no sign of a stash, the same for the roof above. It's just a room full of nothing. :o
Another one is a box between two walls, can't describe where it is exactly but it's also in Wild Territory, that box is empty. I've come across quite a few empty stashes so far.
Did you install bardaks' fix for 1.0004 from Aug. 24? 1.0004 fixes stashes only partially. After you install bardak's fix and load saved game made pre-fix you'll sometimes need to put/get something to/from stashes you already discovered without the fix and haven't yet emptied to get them to work. With the fix - no lost contents, no more than one use of a stash per game.

That bug exists in 1.0004 as well, it seems.
And damn, I'd never have figured out that stash. The devs are evil. :p
i remember i spent 15 minutes hopping around there and ignoring the fight across the heli crash site..... :D ... when I found it, I cursed myself for not seeing it earlier.

I'll install Bardak's fix, 242. :cool: I had completely forgot about it, strangely enough, just installed 1.0004 and began playing.
How did you just ignore the fight near the crash site, mothra? Kruglov can hardly kill all the bad guys on his own. ;)
mothra on 17/9/2007 at 20:24
well, it was on my 2nd playthru ;)
btw: another funny thing in Wild Territory:
if you cross the area before the trainstation you get treated to a cinematic showing you the crashed heli + Kruglov + fire fight via flyover and then zooms back to you.
on my first playthru I did not trigger that animation, I just used the big pipe leading from the last tower (above that dreaded hidden stash) to cross that area and jumped down on the other side, fought all the guys, saved Kruglov, accompanied him to Yantar and returned to the bar.
then again EVERY time I entered the Wild Territory this cinematic was triggered but it just showed the empty site withouth anything happening ?

GRRRR: Were those rats running around in vanilla Stalker? I thik I only ever saw one or two in the dark valley during my playthroughs...
Bjossi on 18/9/2007 at 01:51
They weren't common prior to 1.0004, that's for sure. Good thing they are easy to kill.
GRRRR on 18/9/2007 at 14:24
Yea, pre 1.004 the only places you could see them were Dark Valley and a small section of Prypiat. With 1.004 i found them quite regular in Wild Territory and Red Forest. Even more fun to blow up with grenades than dog packs :devil:

Previously to 1.0004, I also found those rats inside X10 (Red Forest), when I returned there.

Yeah, so did I actually. Only one or two though.
Can't understand why they took out so many of the enemies. Some of them are actually pretty decent.
