PAW fully supports MCM for configuring its settings and keybinds-and there are a lot of them for you to play with! For one thing, you can now configure whether each tier of PDA (1.0, 2.0, 3.1, or-if installed-Milspec) can use Waypoint and Pin functionality. Get creative! LTX-BASED ICON CUSTOMIZATIONĬustomize every set of icons available in the Pins menu, create your own, add favorites which will always be at the top, or even add your own icons from any valid mapspot texture as easily as editing a plain text file.
Some maps are dense with smarts, especially later maps like Jupiter and Zaton, while others like Cordon have (and need) relatively few. This means that the player's mouse can only interact with an object that is already visible on the map.Ĭartography Mode makes all of these navigation points visible for as long as you hold it down, allowing you to set waypoints and pins virtually anywhere you like-or "ping" the map to display a grid of target markers around a known spot, so that you can more precisely choose your placement. Why does this matter? Because icons can only be attached to an object in the game for which you know the Story ID, and it's not possible to get the world coordinates at the mouse cursor.

NPCs are dumb, so Stalker's game engine uses these points for telling NPCs how to navigate from place to place in the world-but because they're in a list and we can know their exact location, we can use them as an "anchor" for your pins or waypoints. Smart terrain points arent secret data or anything-you can think of them like "navigation points", or just another kind of POI. You can always rename the pin later, or remove it and set one with a different icon using Cartography Mode-you don't have to even be on the same map to manage your pins! CARTOGRAPHY MODEĬonfigure a hotkey of your choice in MCM (default: Slash) to enter Cartography Mode while you're in the PDA, which will highlight all smart terrain points in the entire Zone. Convenient if you've got to flee but don't want to forget the general area you were in, or are just moving quickly through an area but want to remember a place to come back to. QUICK PINSĬonfigure a hotkey of your choice in MCM (default: Apostrophe) to drop a Quick Pin at your location, with no further input required.
No, it's not as awesome as it sounds-it's better. The icon of the new pin will be the currently-active icon chosen in MCM, in which you can choose from a variety of pin-style icons as well as faction badges, with more icon options on the way. You can now right-click on any valid mapspot or other Point Of Interest and pin an icon of your choice to that spot, with a label that you can remove or rename at any time by right-clicking on it again.

Feel free to check them out and use them if you like, and if you have any feedback, let me know. They're included in icons.ltx, but aren't part of any set because they may not be ready. I'm experimenting with a new set of hi-res faction patches. NEW IN 1.5: OPTIONAL HI-RES FACTION PATCHES Pinging makes a quiet sound of acknowledgement, but you can turn that off in MCM if you don't like it. Now the map is truly yours to label or decorate as you like. You can even ping a ping, "walking" a grid of available placement locations across the map.
Any of these spots is a valid location to place a pin or waypoint! Right-click on any visible location while in Cartography Mode to display a fine grid of temporary points in a radius around that spot. While it is not possible within Stalker's game enginee to right-click on any empty space in the map and interact with it, PAW has a new feature that is almost as good: Ping. NEW IN 1.5: PING THE MAP FOR PRECISE PLACEMENT Quick Pins are no longer locked to the nearest smart terrain! They will now be placed at the player's exact current location, no matter where that is. Put your PAW down and make the map yours. Label the map with pinned icons and notes so that you never forget where the dangers (or the good loot) are.ĭon't let NPCs tell you where to go-be your own quest-giver. Cancelling the waypoint task does not count as a cancelled or failed task. Remove it whenever you want by right-clicking any visible location on the PDA map. Right-click on any marked location or NPC marker you can see on your PDA map, and track it as a task with a waypoint you can move whenever you want.
