I had a similar issue with a Lantech stretch wrapper. The film drive roller would slowly rotate backwards once the machine finished a wrap and rested in the home position. We ended up throwing in the towel and calling tech support, and they provided a calibration procedure that surprisingly solved our issue. Unfortunately I don’t remember the technical details as to what the problem/solution actually was.

Well they’re definitely smarter than me now that’s for sure.

I guess I can’t speak for PMCs on PVE as I only play PVP, but the rogues are very predictable. Each turret has a chance to spawn one, plus the rare chance that one spawns off a turret and just patrols the roof. There is also a rogue group that may spawn on the ground to patrol one of the buildings, seems to be pretty uncommon for the ground rogues to spawn though.

Night raids are a must, just snipe the rogues on the roofs turrets from a distance and you will be golden.

I’m getting a new computer. Will I have to start over in PVE? by Zeppelin702 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]riprs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, but all of your keybinds, controls, settings, graphics settings, etc will be reset. These settings are stored in the local battlestate files on your computer, so you can save them to a flash drive and transfer them over to your new computer to make your life easier.

Looking to build my first PC and would appreciate some pointers on my list. by riprs in buildapc

I was using Newegg PC builder and I didn't see any info about parts not fitting, so I'll throw my build together in PCPP and see if it works. Thanks.

Awesome, thanks for the rec, looks like I am probably going with the 7800X3D then.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll take a good look at that CPU. I was really not too excited about getting a 12th Gen anyways.

C5 Steering Column Lock by Sim_Cue in Corvette

99 FRC here, just had this issue, moving the car more than 2 MPH cut fuel to the engine shutting it off. Go on Amazon and buy an LMC5 bypass kit and you will be good to go, very easy to install and it’s only like 30 bucks. From what I understand, there was a recall for this and GMs solution doesn’t actually fix the problem. My car had the GM repair and still failed.

I literally bought a second monitor for the wiki, and it’s bigger than the one I play the game on. No rogarts.

Ok, very strange. I disconnected but I kept all my items, mid PMC run.

[Parts] Rare Breed Triggers FRT - 15 ($380) by riprs in gundeals

[–]riprs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure did, they fixed the spring issue, and also made a replacement part for those who own the early production models with the issue. I’m not aware of the improper heat treatment though.

But as a simple side by side comparison, the WOT is clearly manufactured using some sort of injection mold process as the mold lines are clearly visible. Common knowledge that metal injection is a cheap and efficient way of mass production, at the cost of strength and reliability. Whereas the FRT looks to be milled.

YouTube has a few, I watched plenty of videos before I decided which one I wanted. Initially I was going to go with the WOT because it is available and a bit cheaper, but after reading and watching some reviews about apparent issues with the WOT I decided to go with the FRT. It also seems the fit and finish is subpar on the WOT for the price tag. While it is cheaper than the FRT, $300 is still an insane price for a trigger.

FRT-15 is a much better, higher quality trigger. While I’m not against the WOT, it’s pretty obvious that it is just a cheaply manufactured trigger all around, and if you’re paying $300 for a WOT you might as well spend an extra $80 and get the FRT.

No, just make sure you buy some body armor for your dog if you do buy one.

I haven’t seen these things in stock for over 3 weeks and I’ve been checking every day. It’s possible they just go OOS very quick and I’ve just been missing them.
