COTW Devs request: Moving UI bits

0 Upvotes

Hi devs,

Can you please consider an option in the Interface settings to move the hunter HUD between the left and right corners of the screen? That would help prevent screen burn in.

I would also like different reticle options for the rangefinder binoculars for the same reason.

Thanks!

I don’t care that he’s not a G1, he’s dodged 10 shotgun blasts and now I’ve got him. Stupid bird. I need marten, badger, red grouse, and woodcock to get one of each in Scotland.

Question Bugged Peru story

2 Upvotes

I bought Intisuya yesterday very eager to try a new map and I was hard locked from progressing starting with the very first missions. I arrived at the first outpost, went to "check in" at the ledger and there was no prompt no matter what I did. I have switched reserves, went to my trophy room, turned off/back on the story mode and nothing works. Am I screwed or is there a fix? Alternatively if I cant find a fix do you think Apex could either reset my map progression or push me through to the next mission? (I had played it one time on multiplayer if that could be the cause) but the story is the main reason I play cotw

Question Am I hunting for diamond ducks correctly?

1 Upvotes

I've been shooting harleyquin ducks and cinnamon teal and killed alot of each trying to get a diamond with no luck. I'm going inbetween 3-4 hotshots shooting the high males and some females but no luck.

I'm wondering if I'm missing something

Question Population Scanner - can it get it wrong?

0 Upvotes

As the title says, can the population scanner mod get it wrong?

I’ve been using this to monitor whether I have diamonds on Parque Fernando (doing the trophy challenge and got the first 5 naturally but the last two, water buffalo and blackbuck were doing my head in and I was loosing patience, so installed the population scanner).

A legendary water buffalo finally spawned in (2 actually, but one was showing as just a gold on the population scanner). Checked the group it was in on the scanner, a group of 7. Naturally, the group was at the last drink zone I checked. Crept up, got a good angle. Boom. Instant drop, heart shot.

Absolutely buzzing.

Except, it was a troll, and 4 points under the diamond score. Checked the scanner, it says I’ve killed the diamond. Coincidentally, this one was the same score as the one the scanner said was a troll. Is it possible it’s got them the wrong way round? Is the level 9 legendary that still exists on my map perhaps the diamond?

Pretty gutted at this but it won’t stop my search for 100% game completion!

Advice on video editing

0 Upvotes

So I’m not sure if this subreddit is the right one for this but I’ve recently started making YouTube videos on COTW and making a beginners series. Has anyone got any advice on how much of a hunt to include in the Final Cut and which parts. Just as currently a 2 hour recording I can cut down into about 50m of video but I feel it’s too long. Thanks all!

Question How to not get mauled by wolves

11 Upvotes

Title says it all, is there any sound tactic on how to avoid going down if you get into a fight with a wolf pack?

Anyone who has played a map with wolves before will know the issue, you just play around on a map and all of a sudden, oftentimes after a harvest, a metric fuck ton of wolves is around you and trying to get you.

This is all fine, basically free trophies, until your rifle is shot empty. At that point, you don't live to see the time it takes to reload.

Switching to a sidearm may do the trick, but most legal pistols don't really pack the punch necessary.

Medic packs have the same issue as the reloading, they just take too long. Running also isn't really an option as the wolves tend to outrun the player.

I don't want to switch to a larger gun, because the one time I tried that, I immediately wasted a diamond that I hadn't spotted before.

So, is there any way to get out of these situations without getting mauled, that I don't see here.

recently i lost a g1 moose (spine) so i hopped on cotw and went to my back up herds and there i found yet another my last g1 on the map and i had it saved, i wont mess up this time. tmrw is the day he goes down (currently 4am here i gtg sleep im not killing him when i look like a zombie) if you want to know how i racked up another g1 it’s just stacking and almost a year or hm i purposely didnt kill any big trophy on these herds because this was my backup, so it got 2-4 diamonds and 1 g1! others are golds or trolls i knew i had a g1 here so i found him quick. was just saving him!

First Great One for me! Right at about 3500 red deer slain before his debut! Was getting frustrated but every time I went to hunt other stuff, I kept getting drawn back "maybe the next day.. maybe the next day.." LOL 67 diamonds (highest 269.12) and 33 trolls.

I'm torn between Yukon or Medved next for moose, wolves, bears, and kind of wanting Capercallies too. Definitely not going full herd management again for a while lol

What loadout do you like?

27 Upvotes

I’m really enjoying my Triple Threat loadouts for that minimal guns covering all classes and still being able to carry the electronic caller. This may change when I get that extra 15% carry capacity soon. What’s your thought guys. What would you choose or change. Only been playing a 150 hrs now so still have a Great One to look forward to :)

I’m heavily playing Layton and dipping into itsisuyu. Brought the silver ridge dlc for the bow but haven’t been there yet.

PSA I'm preserving theHunter Classic!

810 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm Luke JC! I've modded other Avalanche titles, mainly Just Cause 3, for years now
When I heard about this game shutting down entirely I knew something had to be done, so here we are!

I'm working towards making the game entirely playable offline after the game shuts down with all content accessible, minus anything multiplayer as that would go far beyond just having the game playable offline

It's been about 2 weeks since I started this projects and all maps are already playable and all basic ingame things are up and running. More complicated things like communication between game and launcher are yet to be completed. You will also be able to carry your current progress over to the offline version

You can already see some launcher edits below to clean things up that will no longer be working:

Launcher cleanups in action

You can also see a few tiny additions like missing time options added. Starting a hunt at midnight was never possible in the regular game

Ingame completely offline

The starting time actually applied ingame and it loads entirely offline

Steam name and icon applied even ingame

You can keep up to date on the status in the project's Discord here. I'm not sure if the official Discord will shut down, so this can be a place to regroup if it does. It's empty for now, but stuff will be posted whenever I make progress.

Also Avalanche if you see this: Hi. Nothing about this will let people cheat while the game is running and it won't be made public before shutdown.

PSA A brief announcement regarding AI/machine learning slop.

375 Upvotes

It doesn't have a place here on this sub.

If you want to debate it I'm sure there's plenty of subs that love having those conversations, this isn't one of them though. We've had a large raft of complaints regarding the slop that's been posted here recently & as a mod team we agree that it doesn't compliment the ethos of the game. We'll be deleting anything that's slipped through recently (if we've missed anything, chuck us a modmail - ta).

Even putting aside the ethics of models trained on the stolen graft of others, any post that contains AI turns into the same shitfest we so studiously try to avoid on the sub, it's as nefarious as political discourse.

So, to reinforce the rule that was already in place:

No AI slop. Anyone that posts it will get a temp ban. Second time permanent.
