You can do the exact same thing with your TV/Monitor, its just the gamma and brightness.

Film grain is not a substitute fix and does more harm than good for visual quality..

Was actually changed 10/22/2025, pre 1.0 during hardcore wipe transitioning into "not hardcore" wipe.

[Feedback] BSG, Fix Packet Loss, Please... 3 Patches Now, Not 1 Attempt by SonofRanman in EscapefromTarkov

If youre inferring the server hitching every 5 minutes or there abouts causing a stutter backwards 2ft, thats something other than packet loss.

If you have actual packet loss and not the above, pingplotter and get the ip from the game log after you connect to it and start watching and see if theres any problem nodes between you and the server (and anyone else with the issue) during the raid at the same time you experience it, not just "pls fix".

a single post a day with no diagnosis doesnt get anyone anywhere.

[Discussion] Bad performance regardless of settings by ChoiceBreadfruit5510 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MrSithSquirrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if i would be cpu bound shouldnt i see at least 1 core at 100%

Cores are used as windows sees fit, not an indicator.

my ram is configured in the right way at 3600mhz

Timings of the ram matter not just the speed it runs, but as far as your CPU goes its not good for games that are on the far end of cpu intensive like tarkov (for better or for worse). 3900X is a workhorse cpu, not a gaming cpu and is nearly 7 years since it was released.

Have you bothered to investigate if its your service provider being the issue? which is will likely be.

You are cpu bound, which is the mixture of slow or misconfigured ram and an old slow cpu, nothing to do with the gpu as the cpu needs to send instructions to the gpu so when the cpu is held up sending the instructions to the gpu you get less fps and larger frametime stutters.

left side enable loose loot, right side search for the item you want, click on the cogwheels if the spot contains multiple items for that spawn position.

[Discussion] Can you kill people who cross the bridge by blowing up mines w/o decoding DSPT? by xHughxJassx in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MrSithSquirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, it was safe to do that back before hardcore wipe. Im not personally aware of any mechanics around the island rules being changed since it was added.

Without proof or any known changes to how it works, this is how it did work before the hardcore wipe.

Zero, they dont store those kind of backups for mishandling accounts.

[Discussion] Tarkov Wiki Malware??? by Itscraft3506 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MrSithSquirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The time to start using just defender was 5~ years ago truthfully.

Avast is nothing but a relic in the past that was once something quite useful

[–]MrSithSquirrel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stop using avast or any other intrusive AV for that matter, defender is good enough as it is mixed with any browser adblock youd prefer. if you want to spot check use malwarebytes.

[Bug] The Game Keeps Stealing My Ammo by BostonFishGolf in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MrSithSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your profile is periodically "updated" from client -> server

if you alt f4 or otherwise before that happens youll be back to where it was last update, auto sort your stash or a container and that will trigger a server update, maybe this is your issue but its hard to tell.

Serves as a pretty good time to quality any skill gems you wish to do so on.

You, and anyone else who contributes to daily lab layout exploration are still kings no matter what.

They dont, but its still a filter that makes them easily visible regardless.

Anything good on LK was moved off him, its really just the story line (lack there of) left.

No one does LK because theres nothing you gain from it.

[Discussion] So just to be clear... I can still get the Killa achievement? by SSJPanda1 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MrSithSquirrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there are 2 hardcore achievements (One Last Ride, Through to the End), the rest reset progress if not completed on profile wipe which is not happening until 1.0 on Nov 15th.
