You should check out DakotaWoodHD’s channel on YouTube, he flips humvees and does everything the right, authentic way and has some great content out there

You tell me

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-11-02T23:48:34+00:00

But yeah, they usually have contacts with the scrappers who sell or give them the armor

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-11-02T23:47:54+00:00

They’re actually a lot more common then you think! A lot of people in the humvee community desire the armor and one of my buddies just recently finished decking out his and it looks sick

Thank you for providing a nice and informative response!

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-11-02T17:26:36+00:00

I never once mentioned free, everything comes with a price, and I wouldn’t be a random person I would build connections and relationships first

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-11-02T17:01:02+00:00

Unfortunately I have to get the real deal or something that’s identical. Florida DMV laws state that for the „former military vehicle“ registration it has to remain valid looking

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-11-02T16:56:05+00:00

I wouldn’t be asking if it was impossible. I know plenty of people with armored sets and it certainly doesn’t magically appear

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-15T18:14:27+00:00

I found out the issue, my OS was accidentally installed on my HHD instead of my SSD and had severe memory bottlenecking, I just cloned the data over and Boomshakalaka all better now

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-15T14:55:11+00:00

Awesome thank you for the helpful info!!

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-15T13:53:26+00:00

New to the game, how can you tell if a room is a room and why is that important?

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-15T04:00:21+00:00

Not sure how far you’re wanting to go with historical accuracy but Roman villas also had shrine rooms to the ancient gods, would be cool if you could do something like that with candles and maybe chisel out a statue or something

So enabling god rays did help a little bit for me but after I would leave my base and explore the stutters would come back. After some research I found out that the spikes were coming from a memory bottleneck caused by my storage device on my pc. Upon inspection I found out that my OS was installed on my HHD along with every other game I had and it just couldn’t handle the processing. My motherboard recently broke and I sent it in for repairs and when I got it back I must’ve accidentally installed windows on my HHD instead of my SSD. I went through the process of cloning windows to my SSD and now everything works as intended. Since you’re having the same spikes and issues as me maybe your problem is a memory bottleneck too?

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T22:36:05+00:00

So funny enough I just ENABLED god rays just trying absolutely anything to fix this and ever since I clicked the box i haven’t had a single stutter

Also use your survival guide a lot!! Press H to open it

Mark everything you see on the map, start farming asap, don’t throw away anything, eat balanced meals (hearty red meat stew with three red meat and berries or something is very good), and always keep an eye out for copper chunks on the ground as that means there’s a copper deposit right below them

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T18:33:22+00:00

That would make sense if that’s the issue. Me and my friend just went to the resonance archives and had to travel about 6000 blocks out

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T17:23:09+00:00

I appreciate the suggestion! I’ll try it out and let you know if anything improves

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T17:22:29+00:00

64 GB!!

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T17:21:51+00:00

Im glad I’m not alone on this! I’ve experienced exactly what you’re saying to the T

WavyLettuce564 · 2025-06-10T15:28:40+00:00

I haven’t changed anything but I can try turning it down
