I've noticed that hand dish washing liquid is the best when it comes to stain removal

Iā€™ve always used coke or baking soda

I salvage a fair amount of uniforms this way

My line of work has me covered in blood a lot

Itā€™s not often that itā€™s my own lol

Now that I think I remember my mum using cola when washing some stains off

I mean you're not wrong, itak works, but at the end of the day it's still a clonky port. Unless jailbroken, you won't be able to get all the fancy standalone ads-b and spec-a apps on an iPhone unless you intend on wiring a raspberry pi around your kit

My guy just toss it out or save it as a field uniform. Summer tops are cheap

#

Baofeng is illegal in aus aswell, but even if it wasnt i still wouldnt touch it with a 10ft pole

#

Something that can also pickup CB aswell is good also

marsh flint
#

Any opinions on this

timber fog
#

ā€œCheapā€ and ā€œcommsā€ arenā€™t really two things that go together

If you do cheap out, expect to buy some chinesium shit

That said, feng gang 4 lyfe

Idk if thatā€™d be any less illegal for you in Aus tho

Baofengs are amazing radios

I WANT TO MESS WITH RETRO COMMS ENCRYPTING

# jagged zodiac Mad cus better kit than you

Except it isnā€™t better, cheap ass pouches with hella useless things on them. To many pouches Carrying a unnecessary amount of mags and the nape/neck guard isnā€™t needed and causes restricted movement for limited gain. Those 4 pouches in the front are hanging way to far out and will sag down and you are carrying things in spots that donā€™t make sense. Carrying 3 TQs for whatever reason, carrying Chem lights in spots that are not easy to access. The list goes on and on

#

Plus weird ass furry shit

looks like something a fatass would wear to larp in their moms basement, post physique.

I mean 3 tqs isnt a bad idea

I just dont like the placement

No reason to have 3 TQ on you like that

You need 1 for each limb. Thats what ive been taught

Atleast 1 on a belt

You have 4 limbs, also itā€™s like people donā€™t know that you can switch your high and tight TQā€™s to a deliberate by adding another TQ 2-3 inches from the wound. At the same time you can loosen up the high and tight TQ and keep it as back up in case the deliberate fails which it does a fair bit

I can carry 8 on my jpc

i can technically carry 9 but the rearmost ones would be impractical to reach

#

3rd one had the best bullet holes before gta v tho

marsh flint
#

3rd one was quite pre gtaV

#

No idea whats the engine going to be like in GTA VI

naive maple
#

hopefully it will blow our minds properly

marsh flint
#

Maybe they'll have honed rdr2 engine

naive maple
#

its been a long time

marsh flint
#

But I guess rdr2 engine was The GTA V engine

naive maple
#

considering they always make their games for consoles i doubt it will be graphically amazing, but things like bullet effects, physics, those things could be improved a lot

marsh flint
#

Yea they should bring something new

#

I mean the difference between SA and IV is stunning

#

GTA IV had some things better than V

naive maple
#

the trouble is they always make them as console games first

#

so without a new console generation that blows the previous one out of the water, there won't be massive improvements

wind cave
#

should i get this or just a regular weapon catch to put on belt for 40 bucks less

#

this thing looks kewl tho

wind cave
#

i disagree and doubt this next one will come out on console before pc

#

my guess will be it releases on pc same time. and i disagree that it wont be graphically amazing. i agree with the point youre making but i think the landscape has ssomewhat changed

#

gta always sets the benchmark for where the gaming industry is at. rn cyberpunk is leading that in setting a new benchmark imo, i think theyll try to beat that + rdr2 which already looked amazing

#

its r*. did you see the leaked footage of what the PRE-PRE-ALPHA game looked like bro? idk if you know about game dev, but thats no where near what pre alpha or even alpha looks like for most games. it looked ridiculous. thats just a great example of what a beginning stage looks for them, the finished stage will be something spectacular

wind cave
#

gta iv was the best use of that engine in my opinion. gta v was too arcadedy,lightweight, user friendly

naive maple
wind cave
#

i agree, but im saying i think the landscape has changed

#

i doubt that happens this time

naive maple
#

if they were to suddenly release on pc first it would be a complete soul change for rockstar

wind cave
#

pc gaming has risen a lot and im sure they're going to want to take advantage of people with RTX cards and all the fancy graphical tricks they can do

#

100%

#

my guess with this one pc comes out the same time or very very shortly after

wind cave
#

gta iv is the best ever, and a revolutionary industry changing game

#

2008 was the most revolutionary timefor gaming ever

#

gta iv, fallout 3, left 4 dead, gears ofw ar 2, super smash bros brawl, dead space

#

tons of the most iconic games ever came out that year and they looked WAYY better than anything we had ever seen before

#

gta sa to iv is literally a ridiculous ridiculous feat that i obsess over as a programmer

timber fog
#

Eh, after seeing how they handled GTA V and RDR2 Iā€™m not hopeful

#

Storyā€™ll probably be cool like basically any other R* game but onlineā€™s just gonna be another cashgrab shitshow

#

Not to mention it wonā€™t be optimized for shit and will continue to crutch on hardware advancements to close the gap

wind cave
#

eh theyve done pretty great with gta v and rdr2 optimization id say

#

i didnt play gta v on pc right on release. ive played it tons of pc years after release, but ive played rdr2 right on release of pc, i also do have a great pc, but gta v and rdr2 arent really known for bad optimization

#

idk if you mean on release, which im sure could be possible

#

but if you mean them using online for a cash grab- yea of course they are.thats not even their choice. take-two is a cash grabber. but theyll still put out a great, super detailed game

marsh flint
wind cave
#

they release the same basketball game every year lmfao

marsh flint
#

There are 2 gens after

timber fog
# wind cave eh theyve done pretty great with gta v and rdr2 optimization id say

Honestly, the base game was pretty solid, it was just a little messy and definitely bloated. My gripe is more with the updates/DLCs- with each one, the bloat got worse, along with the mess that is their file structure, not to mention the overall game started working harder than it needs to because itā€™s reading 50 of the same weapon stat files and trying to figure out which version to use

#

So, on one hand, I guess you could say itā€™s more online-oriented, but it affected singleplayer performance in the long run too

wind cave
#

that definitely happens a lot these days. i built my dream pc so i check performance a lot. with every 20gig update of cod i lose like 5 fps

#

definitely more online-oriented. completely online oriented

#

so they dont care how it affects singleplayer cuz they dont care about that at all

#

i doubt thats how r* feels, or the programmers themselves, but when the higher ups tell you focus on the moneymaker thats what ya do

#

do you mod or something? how come you know anything of / consider the file structure?

timber fog
#

Yeah I try not to blame the devs themselves but at the same time like, cmonā€¦ at least make the game good still

wind cave
#

i agree, but id do the same in their shoes

#

job security plus if im already not getting to work on the shit i want lol

#

they probably do want to make it good still, but just dont have the time

#

theyre probably told to spend all time on onljne shit only

timber fog
wind cave
#

awesome

timber fog
#

At one point I pretty much turned it into the game I wished it wouldā€™ve turned into

wind cave
#

thats tuff, ive gotten a lot more confident recently and i think im gonna get into modding cyberpunk

wind cave
#

what stuff did you focus on?

timber fog
#

And even found a way to get modded game files working on official R* servers

wind cave
#

yeah a couple people have, usually it ends up with a ban eventually

timber fog
#

Iā€™d also import and replace a lot of the guns with more ā€œstreetā€ shit

wind cave
#

thats awesome, i really miss the gta iv wanted system compared to v

#

i actually think cyberpunk has done that well after update 2.0

timber fog
#

IV definitely nailed a lot of stuff on the head, V felt like a downgrade in a lot of ways

wind cave
#

yea i completely replaced gta v sounds textures etc

#

tried to make it more gta iv

its all way too light in gta v

it sounds so dumb but playing everyting maxed out + rtx medium/ultra on

it looks so fucking crazy on my computer

it was always great to e but thats cuz i had a beasty pc so i didnt encounter glitches/performance issues like others

idk if youre under min req i dont think so

Are olights really that bad?

I've seen some bad reviews from 3-4 years ago, but anything recent seems to be good quality.

its a flashlight, if you arent in any harsh conditions with it its probably fine, just people brand meat riding

olight, rightfully so, has a reputation for being a grenade

handguns will fire on their own but people still buy them even if they grenade themselves

#

if it hasnt happened recently and it was corrected or addressed id say its fine probably

muted gate

.... its not a corrected issue

#

like low tier lights exist, but olight is not the play

#

the Streamlight TLR1 is the same price and is objectively better on a handgun

naive maple
#

guys who buy turkish handguns and taurus will also buy olight because they love buying cheap trash

#

either way they don't shoot so the junk doesn't break on them and then they go jUsT aS goOoD on the internet

TLR1 is like 140~ ish

šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø I was looking at the olight odin tbh.

But people have tested it for 2000-4000 rounds. No flickering or anything like that.

Biggest complaint I heard was that the screws walked out after 3k rounds ( on the mount) ut he didn't lock tight it.

I mean, as long as you donā€™t care if it breaks/explodes if you drop it

i just don't buy chinese copycat garbage if i can at all help it

Personally Iā€™d still save up for a more rugged/reliable light. Better to have one reliable light than to have to keep buying a ā€œjust as goodā€ one that keeps breaking

When it comes to handgun lights I'm agreeing with woo, if you want something relatively inexpensive but good get a tlr1hl

Though I will say, once you buy a really nice light. It'll make you never want anything else, I'm actually debating on selling most of my streamlights so I can upgrade

I would deff get a new holster that doesnt require you to use your trigger finger to disengage the lock. They risk you shooting yourself which is why most PD's have banned them and most people dont run them. If you want a locking device the Safariland ALS system is the way to go. Also slap a magnified optic like an LPVO on that rifle its a DMR with a dot why?

# formal onyx Some WD-40 and very fine steel wool

The issue is that Iā€™ve heard WD-40 is a bit corrosive. It wouldnā€™t be an issue for, letā€™s say, a hatchet. But on the ā€œlocking mechanismā€, there just so happens to be rust in places I wouldnā€™t be able to get stuff (ie, wd40) out of

Yah know, the thing that keeps the knife on the gun?

#

Hey guys! Looking to buy a plate carrier irl. Looking for something modular, and with quick release system. Any suggestions ? (Im from US )

Weird, WD-40 is usually meant to prevent rust and corrosion iirc

#

And yeah I know what you're talking about

low fox
#

Itā€™s just what Iā€™ve heard

formal onyx
#

As long as your just cleaning the blade with it you'll be fine

#

And you can wipe it off after and use some like CLP or something to coat the metal

low fox
#

Seems I will have to find another solution for the problem that is de-rusting the moving bits on the knife

That will be a tad more difficult

Try silicone spray maybe?
