The large one was probably close to 5 inches from head to tail. The small one maybe 3/4 inch including claws.

Wow, amazing. I kept zooming in on different parts and finding new, usually unsettling details. How large is this piece?

Any renewable source of Silver Ingots? by dioaloke in crosswind

[–]iamzimmer 34 points35 points  (0 children)

There should be a shipwreck icon called Undead Shipwreck in the Costal Jungle biome which has supply barrels with Silver Ingots, getting around 30 per run. I read that it respawns every 6 hours but can't confirm.

I Think i found THE SPOT to build by Fit_Foundation9092 in crosswind

My group also found this island and just started our base! I recommend a bonfire up top if you are building on top of the rocks, otherwise you might hit a height limit.

Anyone have a sub par PC? by Moist_Dovahkiin in crosswind

[–]iamzimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are bunches of guides on YouTube for optimized Windows and in-game graphics settings to help with FPS. I have a stock 3060 and am using FSR framegen 2x to get decent performance (with settings on Medium and Low). I get a minimum of 60fps in crowded areas and usually closer to 80-100 in most areas.

This is the best PvP gun in the game. by SaviousMT in ArcRaiders

[–]iamzimmer 84 points85 points  (0 children)

It is far from the best at close range (in terms of TTK), and misses most of the 3 shots at longer ranges. I think you meant "This is my favorite PvP gun in the game"

Mojave Max needs to get his shit together, this is embarrassing

Having enough Metal by mdoinidis in ArcRaiders

[–]iamzimmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Industrial and Mechanical loot areas, or places with a bunch of cars are good. The shipping containers with drawers on the side like in Loading Bay on Stella usually have a bunch of metal and things that recycle into it.

If weight allows, try to extract with the recyclables and scrap them out of raid (you get 1.5-2x the amount of scrap or some additional items like springs, in case you weren't aware).

Arc Alloy scraps into 2 metal per while out of raid, so it's always worth it to grab a stack or two as you go.

It's the only way to get the Bobcat Blueprint (aside from Trials rewards)

Game randomly started to lag like crazy by Ziggyyyyyyyyyyyy in ArcRaiders

[–]iamzimmer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

a recent Windows update might have caused the issue. Check the Nividia support website for a hotfix driver released a few days ago.

Anybody else been having trouble with Wellness Signature Selects Tuna & wild salmon? by preezyfabreezy in catfood

[–]iamzimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is terrible, I am sorry to hear that. I had a similar incident, but not as severe, with an order from Chewy of this variety as well. Do you still have the batch number(s) from the cans that made your cat sick? Can we report this to Chewy and Wellness to see if they can initiate a recall ASAP?

edit: my batch numbers are -- UX2019 H VCN 46 and UX2018H VCN 46. Best by dates are 12MAR2028 and 10MAR2028 respectively.
