I built several brick stone buildings for my layout and figured I share how I painted them. Several steps are needed, and it is honestly not my favourite part.

It’s up to you what colours you want to use and what result you’re trying to get. I wanted to get a brown-reddish type brick house, as it is seen frequently for industrial buildings.

This pretty much sums up my thoughts when I got the Antique achievement.

The Shanghai mission of Transport Fever 2 (the last mission of the 3^rd chapter) includes an optional quest to “create a crowded stations vale of 80%.” Initially I increased the number of vehicles, hoping the value would decrease to get less overcrowded stations.

To do so, you must either have a rocket launcher or an under-barrel grenade launcher (e.g. the GP-25 grenade launcher attachment for the AKM-74S). The rocket launcher can ...

Inventory size/being encumbered was one of my main issues in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. You carry 2 weapons, a pistol, med packs, a bit of food, and ammunition, and you’re already slowing down.

Since I ballasted my tracks some days back, I was looking for a good glue/water mixture that does the job properly. After doing some online research, I came across a YouTube video covering exactly ...
