Why aren't these things doing anything visually in CoC even though the Brain Scorcher is supposedly activated?
>>146892743
Because radio wave emitters don't sparkle or whatever. If anything their transformers could hum quietly.
Hello everybody, it's great to be posting another update for you guys confer, welcome the new technology StalkerinSDK to Stalker SoC.
We had a time, created an extreme effect on the Doom 3 game, it was never released because it was in beta.
Now that we have this modification to Stalker SoC, we decided to put this update in graphics and particles of Stalker SoC.
Currently the X-ray Engine Stalker Corporation, moved from 1.0006 to 2.0 Chek-Tek

Sounds like the only meme here is you my friend.
Does donating gear to your faction raise your reputation?
>>146901604
Also does it raise your rank?
>>146901604
No.
It was added for the sole purpose of giving weapons to your squad, so if they had no weapon and were poor little shits you weren't just escorting dead weight.
>>146901965
Squads are already retarded. They are nothing but meat shields.
>>146902652
They're also good for selling shit to if you're a hoarder.

After playing SoC and CoP and then watching the stalker movie I feel at a loss for the peace and comfyness that the movie had compared ot these games.
Movie had luscious forests, animals, etc making it a peaceful calm environment, yet the game just feels so dead and random mutant shit. I, I just can't be comfy in this.
>>146907178
CoP Absolute on green/green/green does make it luscious to a certain point
>>146906898
Just an extra mutant Alun added. They were in Pripyat reborn for CoP as well. Notice also that mutants can be different sizes and strengths

>>146910471
Yes there is a huge difference. There was never a group called Cheeky Breeki unless you're thinking of some reddit shit or something.
>>146910651
>There was never a group called Cheeky Breeki unless you're thinking of some reddit shit or something
We had a group called Cheeky Breeki long ago on /vg/, we were clashing with some big clan tho that had a fort captured and I remember the last big thing we did was tried to assualt it only to get fucked over by them spamming nades and having a respawn that was right inside there base while our respawn could be spawn camped from inside their walls by snipers iirc.
I think /k/ also had a group too seperate of CB because they didn't want to be part of the conflict since we were KoS basically.

>this developer post
>>146910846
Are you thinking of Cheeseburger America? Or was the group around at the same time as Murderkube actually called Cheeki Breeki?
I don't remember the name from back then, just that they were completely fucking retarded. So was /k/ube and CBA, for that matter.
>>146910923
Of course SO also claims that they're the legit one. It doesn't really matter which is right, just which isn't absolute garbage like sZone.
>>146911084
Are they both garbage?
>>146911084
>>146910846
http://4chandata.org/k/Stalker-Online-a306638
No there was a group named CHEEKI_BREEKI long ago. Last_Light were the jews that had GMs in their group and had people who paid for gear and shit and were unbearable faggost.
We took a place in the far north before quitting too because there was online like 5 defenders of the place.
Also it was sZone we played on, before they were forced to change name.
>>146911182
sZone is purified essence of awful
SO is a shitty game with some redeeming qualities that make it worth it if you're really into those aspects.
>>146911272
Oh. My fault. I was playing then, just not with those faglords. I will grant that at least CB was less retarded than LL.

Grabbed the STALKER bundle in the steam sale and got the SoC Complete mod installed since it seemed like it was the best choice for a first playthrough. Did I fuck up or is Complete truly the way to go?
Also; are there any graphics mods that work with it? I've had trouble figuring out if Complete does anything with the game's visuals; I'm particularily thinking about lighting and things like grass density, not ridiculous high res textures.

>>146913465
I never needed to do that, though the items from itemsoup should be in every STALKER mod. What really pisses me off are the "I win artifacts" and utter shit gunplay, even the shitty new quests wouldn't be that offensive if the gunplay wasn't so bad and you could become a demigod by using the lolartifacts and the autodoctor.
>>146915347
How many of those complaints are still relevant for 0692? I'm trying to decide between that, 0693, and SGM lost soul.

Playing CoC.
Is there any way to disable the delay when you mouse over an item before it's information comes up? It takes ages to look through and compare items because I have to wait like 2 seconds for each one.
Do any of the hud addons improve inventory menus or what?
>>146915676
Those are three very different mods, play all three. Consider 2.0 Geo instead of lost soul if you're looking for new quest content
>>146918198
>Anonymous 06/28/16(Tue)22:34:27 No.14691
Yup, Geo has a lot more quests but Ls offers better gunplay. that's the trade off.
>>146918357
just how bullet-spongey is Geo? I played through vanilla SGM and that was enough for one lifetime for me...especially since I didn't skip to Zaton...
>>146918575
Well dont' worry because you start in zaton.
as for bullet sponginess, it's definitely there.
I downloaded a bullet penetration addon from the 1.7 repack, hopefully it helped.
>>146916418
its like that for a reason
>>146918575
I'm pretty sure that Geo still has the fucking artifact powered VSS and that stupidly powerful "unique" AK which IRL is just a 5.56 AK74. AK102 or something.
Will any of the stalker games give me the feeling you get when you explore lost and hidden WWII bunkers and such?

about 15 saved up and I gathered 5 from boxes in the preceeding room
I usually keep my distance and just heal up with bandages or equip 3 meatchunks for a couple seconds
>>146928049
you might want to break that bandage habit as many mods make them only heal bleeding and not restore any HP
Anyone here? Sound off.

Playing CoC and i cant seem to turn in the basic tools to Novikov. Can only Clear Sky members do the quest?
>>146931302
are you sure they're basic tools?
>>146931450
says its a gunsmith kit that contains tools for basic maintenance. was there some separate item added for weapon repair only?
>>146931795
Yes.
>>146932025
I see. well thanks for clearing that up
>>146932486
To your credit, the icons and descriptions don't differentiate them very well. The ones you want are called 'Basic Tools' or something like that, though.
Decided to try out CoC and Warfare today for the first time and it doesn't seem to work very well.
I frequently spawn fresh in a base surrounded by hostiles and no friendlies anywhere on the map.
Unhandled exception errors happen frequently.
Upon getting out of the load screen for switching zones I find that previously conquered territory is completely replaced by some random faction that changes every time I load. This makes it impossible to make any appreciable process as once I conquer a zone my work is all reverted as soon as I switch areas.
Is this how the mod is supposed to function and I'm just missing the point?
>>146934656
no, it's not. you probably messed up the install.
>>146934885
I'd believe that as well which is why I've tried three separate installation routines which consistently provide the same results. At least I know for sure it's not functioning properly though, thanks!
>>146935175
patched to 1.3.2?
are you using the beta patch? are you using a weapon pack? if so are you using the compatability patch? using anythign else?
I followed all the steps for the cumulative pack 2 guide in the OP. But I cant find the third step to:
Boot up the game, you should see version 2.09 fix 2 in the main menu. Do this now!
Before that, I deleted the .dbc, .dbb and .dbd since the game wasn't working with them .
>>146935502
I've tried playing in the following states:
CoC 1.3.2 + AO3 + Warfare + Warfare AO3 patch + the patch from the repo to remove the fog in CoC
CoC 1.3.2 + Warfare no weapon packs or fog removal applied
My third installation was a repeat of the first permutation, full weapon pack/fog removal/relevant patches.
I was using a few of the optional settings bundled with Warfare such as quick body removal, large squads and large companion count. These settings were applied with every installation so I'll probably try a fresh installation again without applying them in case they're somehow causing issues.
>>146935697
that is step 3.
>Before that, I deleted the .dbc, .dbb and .dbd since the game wasn't working with them
yeah you just peleted some files that were part of the 1.0006 patch. usually you delete/replace these with blank ones when downgrading to 1.0004 for AMK.
if the game wasnt wroking beforehand with these db files. then something is fucked up.
1. Start with a clean Shadow of Chernobyl 1.0006 WW edition
>>146936263
I did start with a clean installation of SoC 1.00006 from GOG. Not sure what is wrong.
Is there an immortal npc's for 2.09 fix 2 for JP2? there was one for fix 1 but when I use it , the game crashes
>>146936459
re-install then run the game to make sure it works first

Any guides on getting the best possible mod setup for it? Or just play vanilla CoC?
>>146942457
How much stalker have you played? You might want to try it vanilla, or you might want a weapon pack. In any case I'd recommend you start with the 1.3.20 patch, 1.4RC is buggy
>>146942579
Beat ShoC vanilla and with Oblivion Lost, AMK and Super Mod Pack
Beat CoP vanilla and played Misery for a few hours, I like what they were going for with Misery but it just doesn't feel like STALKER.
>>146942714
Ok. Probably recommend AO3 for you, just remember that there's a multi tool in your inventory that can detach scopes from weapons in the slot. If you're good with compatibility/file checking, look in the repo for small mods that interest you.
>>146942835

Key NPCs had their health jacked way up in one of the patches on the way to 2.09. Not immortal but very hard to kill them now.

I know this is stupid question, but is there any way to put CoC 1.4's Enemy Health Bar into vanilla CoP?
Can the spawnrates be turned down on CoC?
Everywhere is a fucking warzone, I prefer full on shootouts being rare.
>>146949780
you could edit the spawn count in squad_descr so that groups aren't as large
>>146949780
Well yes, but doing so will only alleviate the problem. That problem stems from the maps, not the spawn rates.

Is it a reliable fix or will it fuck things up?
>>146950798
It's a reliable but ghetto solution. As I had said, it'll alleviate the problem, not solve it. It'll work, in that it won't fuck things up.

In the time it takes you to locate Expert Tools you would be better off going to Forester every time. I don't think you can actually even find any.
What a shitty fucking mechanic.
Okay so i've been playing and i've read that there's always an ac-96/2 on one of the zombified stalkers at the sawmill, but i never find one there. Is it based on difficulty? Why can't i find one?
>>146963618
I never even bother with tools, I just get the most basic upgrades done by the local mechanic then beeline for forester
>>146965292
bruh this isn't mechwarrior lol a zombie isn't going to be carrying around a naval autocannon
>>146965393
I'm talking about the sawmill in Call of Pripyat, in zaton. The gun is called the AC-96/2, Obakon, AN-94 in each game. There is supposed to be one there, but i cannot find it. I was asking if there was a reason why, since the article for the weapon says that there is a guaranteed drop of one there.
>>146965592
I wouldn't worry about it.
You'll be overflowing with guns eventually.
what mod are you using?
>>146965701
Absolutely none. I guess i'll just buy the damn thing for 8k rubel from owl or whatever his name is, I was hoping to get it for free.
>>146965592
article is wrong - high-level NPCs can spawn with one
don't worry, tho, it's a bit of a rubbish gun anyway
if for whatever reason you really want one, head to Yanov station and have a poke around some of the smaller buildings
>>146965786
It's probably in stashes somewhere, idk.
I don't think the vanilla economy is tough, so no worries
>>146965592
There is in vanilla, drops off a lieutenant who is by the gate usually. Be sure to loot soon else someone else picks it up.
>>146965863
>>146965834
Thanks, i'm believe you guys but since i'm trying two more times, i'll try what >>146965967
is saying. I'll check each gate again after using bed for 24 hrs, Will be back with progress i guess, otherwise i'll just buy it. Wanted a gun that shoots these super common bullets with most dmg, i guess.
>>146965834
There's a guaranteed drop in vanilla at the sawmill unless the fucker wanders off or something

>>146966484
Nimble gets what he can, he doesn't come across a Groza every day. Simple explanations for this type of thing. It's your game though
>>146966075
Damage isn't much higher. The 2 shot mode is nice to have is all. An AK-74 is basically the same gun in CoP outside the 2-shot mode.
I'd stop obsessing over damage in a given caliber and get on with playing the game.
>>146966075
It always dropped at the sawmill for me.
It isn't that much better than the AK74 though.
Why don't traders have their full inventory all the time? I understand you can go into trader files and change it so they have everything all the time, but why make that design choice in the first place?
That's pretty much the only time I savescum because fuck you I know you have that shit in the back somewhere asshole SHOW IT TO ME
>>146966075
Get the gun at theburnt farmstead.
The in game status bars are decieving because it doesn't take into account the caliber afaik, so it's only really good at comparing 2 guns of the same caliber, as different ammo will have different traits (damage, speed/range, flatness, armor piercing, accuracy)
>>146967126
i guess one reason could be how fucking huge the inventory screen would be.
Plus, it's always nice to go to the trader after a mission and see if they have new stuff. Their stock gets upgraded over time.
>>146967126
I guess it's to simulate inventory moving, he gets what he cans, then sells some of it and get a few new things.
>wanting fuckhueg trader inventory
It's shit, see Misery.
>>146967314
>>146967382
I'm playing CoC and am Monolith so Preacher already has a limited inventory as it is, sometimes I go and he doesn't even fill 1 whole page so I don't even have to scroll down.
I also don't believe he gets new stuff, except for when I got him an AS Val for a mission and now he seems to sell them as if I have any need for a gun I already have.
I go to that asshole looking for weapon repair kits and he NEVER HAS THEM. EVER. FUCK
>>146967126
They aren't supposed to have all that shit at once, and you aren't supposed to hoard all of it at once like fucking ISIS finding huge stockpiles of ammo on a base they captured. They're supposed to have their own stockpiles that get refreshed daily. The way GSC did this is poor though as you can just savescum your way out of it anyway.
>>146967506
You mean I'm not supposed to have a stash with 150 moldy bread, 500 bandages, 100 anabiotics and 300 M203 grenades I never use because NATO is cucked?
>>146968321
Something along those lines, yeah.

>>146968876
I don't care about supply rarity as long as the bandit who was just firing at me non-stop for 1 whole minute drops a few hundred rounds of ammunition on death instead of fucking 7 bullets. Either that or he runs out and can't fire at me anymore, fucking sick of this shit.
>>146969407

Anyway, you should fucking kill yourself.
>>146969407
Nigga I think STALKER really might not be your cup of tea if you can't handle that shit.
Why is there a Vepr in the game when there is already a Saiga
>>146969407
"muh realisms" is not an excuse to shit up game balance. Make your own autismod if you want but don't expect anyone else to want your babymode bullshit.
>>146969407
ammo is so plentiful in vanilla stalker though
>>146969545
Because Vepr is a superior line of guns ))))
>>146969526
I can handle it, but it's retarded. I will run out of bullets eventually if I fire like a moron, the AI just shoots non-stop. This is a balance issue.
>>146969631
The game is unbalanced because of it. Am I surrounded by idiots? The AI should be conserving ammo the same as me, how would this not add balance. Holy fuck I am surrounded by retards.
>>146969545
Why isn't there just one gun for each ammo type
Why isn't there just a single generic gun that fires generic bullet-brand bullets

Maybe he had exactly the number of rounds he fired at you + 7 so after firing a few hundred rounds at you those 7 were all he had left.
>>146922058
Depends, what feeling is that?
>>146970049
Yeah, every guy in the game had that happen to them. Sure.
>>146969732
AI is stupid. This is a fact. If you limit the AI's ammo they will shit all of it away trying to shoot someone through a barrel or some dumb shit and then have no option but to run around like a headless chicken.
The balancing factor here is normally that the player is not a complete and total mouthbreathing retard so giving them limited ammo is fine, but you're really putting the lie to that assumption, huh.
>>146970139
It's a videogame, does your autism also gets triggered for drawing ammo from a generic pool instead of having individual magazines ?because there are mods for that
>>146970289
I like how they put zero effort towards the AI. I mean I get the " GSC was too ambitious and had to cut shit" meme, but still.
>>146970139

>>146969407

Daily reminder that people feeding shitty trolls are worse than the trolls themselves.
I think i've been playing too much Stalker recently. I don't want the games to become routine, guess i'll take a break for awhile.
Guys, I've got a question. How are the terrain and/or models in STALKER grouped, is the terrain just a big mesh? Is there any large piece model that could any of you could rip out for me? I don't care about props, textures or anything like that. I just want a large set piece that would be able to support some AI testing. The first Jupiter factory building would work good.
I just want a big location that I can play in the game and compare it how it plays out with my AI.

I want to play some faction war stuff and i dont know if CoC is worth downloading.
>>146982991
CoC doesn't really have faction wars. And the mod that adds them (Warfare) is kinda shit. So yeah, if you want faction wars play The Faction Wars.
>>146982991
Memefare needs a custom settings file and/or tinkering for being good. TFW still has the living mummy meme from vanilla Clear Sky, being "you need 20 bandages to stop the bleeding from a buckshot pellet or a 9x18 bullet".

Unfortunately, there's no waypoint.
Can anyone remember this mission and throw me a tip on where to find this guy? Thanks.

Anyway, how can I interact with all these people in OGSE? For example this guy, I think he might be near. But some times people say "I want to buy X item, in the garbage". Like very useful stalker, the garbage is HUGE.
Or people who say "I saw a pack of blind dogs in Cordon, does anyone want to hunt them down?". How can I find these people?

I feel like it would be very easy to make a good stalker game. Just no bullshit like essential npcs, no fancy shooting mechanics like a modern shooter, no scripted events everywhere... hell, I'll be happy with modern graphics, no bugs and less clunkynessalthough clunkyness grows on you
>>147002289
It could be a good game, but it would be very hard to live up to everyone's expectations.
If they make one, and it's not very good, at least mods have a newer platform to work with. Lets be honest, the vanilla Stalker games aren't that great, but with mods they become fantastic.

A'ight, I've finished Complete 2009 twice, Vanilla once. What to do now for new content? AMK?
It's a big detail that I cannot play Clear Sky or Call of Pripyat, or use graphical enhancements, since I have no GPU.
Would AMK even run then?
And on my last vanilla playthrough I got all unique weapons, armors and all artifacts, including 5 of each repairing artifact. My point is I'm done going back and forth the areas, running out of stamina cause I'm over 50kgs, so is a fast travel or higher carrying capacity included?

Now's the part where you tell us you installed Complete and are playing on Novice
Since when have stalkers became a group of circle jerk of such massive elitists faggots?
I know it had a passionate and puritan following but I remember people just being goofy with cheeki breeki memes and talks of desire to travel to Pripyat one day. Now one downloads shit from Steam and faggots gets their undies in a twist. So what if the Steam version is auto updated to version 1.0005? Seriously, it alters literally nothing if you're playing vanilla.
Maybe I'm just too old to give a shit.

So what's the install order for CoC ? Haven't played since the leak.
I'm thinking :
- main CoC files
- official patch 1.3.20
- revo_lucas CoC repo files
- AO or OWR3
- revo_lucas AO or OWR3 files
- random addos and tweaks (HUD, textures, etc)
Am I wrong ?
And is there a better one nowadays between OWR3 and AO ? or is there something else new ?
Update for Standalone AMK Ballistics:
>fixed tracers
>fixed Vintorez deteriorating way too fast
>re-enabled 9x39 tracers

>>147016257
Hmm ok thanks for the warning.
I just checked the modb, wasn't used to that since I played the leak I guess.
There's a fuck ton of addon mods! Are there some must haves or some shitty ones or are all of those of good enough quality so that I can pick and chose (except stcop, ao, owr that are mut-exclusive) ?
Just picked up SoC, any mods I should use for my first playthrough? Or is it better to go vanilla for the first time

>>147018145
most of them will tell you what they are compatible with. alot of the addons on moddb are old as shit and havent been updated
AO3.xx
STCOP
OWR3
call of changes
are the ones that are the most up to date + compatible with the latest patch.
there is also warfare and weapon soup (beta test)
dont install any of the shit from the revolucas repo unless you knwo what you are doing.
also just rememberred there is a "beta patch" for CoC, which last time i checked is not compatible with weapon packs+addons
>>147019371
If you had read them you wouldn't be crashing. Modding is not magic. AMK is not flipping a coin to see if it works or not. Either you didn't read them or you didn't follow them, end of story.
>>147019483
I have a ten year old+ computer with an onboard graphics chip, it's more likely crashing cause of graphics settings on AMK than installation issues.
>>147019401
Cool thanks.
How is the beta patch compared to using one of the weapon submods ?
>>147020680
dunno never used it, but it adds new thigns changes things.
apparently i am incorrect, you can use it with the officially supported weapon packs (AO, owr, stcop)

Arma has 2 big problems:
1. the community is fucking garbage but the video you posted doesn't seem so bad.
2. It's built on absolutely fucking shit foundations of code that is almost 20 years old and the current modders have no idea of what it does which results in really bad performance.
Is the Gunslinger leak from the old thread legit? As in, is it actually an old gunslinger build?

Serious question - why isn't JGSME used with STALKER? With 10 minutes of tinkering tops (from both the modders for packing the files and from the user for setting it up) you could save you fucking hours of headaches.
>>147025158
Because stalker mods do not work that way and I don't need an app to copy paste folders for me.
>>147025554
>stalker mods do not work that way
But they do. It's a matter of drag and drop most of the times, JGSME would make it much more convenient for technologically impaired people which is also good for modders since that'd give their shitty works more visibility.
>>147025709
personally, i'd prefer it if the technology-impaired people stayed out of stalker
>>147025709
If someone is so "technologically impaired" that you can't drag and drop some folders, i'm surprised they're even playing a PC game.
I get what you're saying, making installing easier, but it's not gonna do much in most cases.
>>147025709
There are two possibilities:
1. Mods are already compatible because they don't touch anything in common or can safely overwrite
2. Mods touch the same files and need to be merged
If 1, literally all you have to do is copy and paste. Fucking around with some separate app is more of a hassle than doing it manually. ctrl+c ctrl+v is not rocket science.
If 2, no manager on the planet can do anything about it so it's useless anyways.

>>147026403
>MARKED ONE? WHAT THE HEEEEELL
>>147025902
>>147025957
>it's not gonna do much in most cases.
Consider the following: downgrading SoC to 1.004. With JGSME it'd be just a matter of selecting the relevant mod profile and letting it do its thing, which would also make switching back and forth from various SoC versions much easier. Or prebuilt modpacks for CoC so that the install order is literally impossible to fuck up.
>>147026663
go shill your shitty file manager somewhere else
>>147026663
Downgrading is not hard. Pasting a few mods over each other is not hard. Sure, if you don't care about the overhead of running some randy program all the time and configuring profiles for everything, I'm sure it takes less clicks to do some things once it's all running. Feel free to use it if you think it's worth using.
But even as someone who mixes and matches and swaps around mods, dbs, bins, etc very frequently this doesn't appeal to me in the slightest and it's sure as shit not worth trying to get every modmaker on board to package things up just so to play nicely.
>>147027190
>Downgrading is not hard.
It seems to me that only very few people are aware of the drag and drop downgraders.
>running some randy program all the time
Just twice: the first time for installing the packages, the second time for uninstalling it, and at the end of the day you'd have the STALKER install in the same exact way you had it the first time you launched it.
>and configuring profiles for everything
That'd be the modders' job and it takes 5 minutes.
>as someone who mixes and matches and swaps around mods, dbs, bins, etc very frequently this doesn't appeal to me in the slightest
My approach is obviously meant to be used by dumb endusers that just want to play, not modders.
>>147027774
If it relies on modders supporting it it's a completely moot point because that's never going to happen in most cases
If it's something you can set up yourself you've just made the theoretical comically-incompetent audience have to learn how to configure some weird app instead of learn how to install a mod, which strikes me as a bit of a wash.
>>147028128
>you've just made the theoretical comically-incompetent audience have to learn how to configure some weird app
Nah you can ship the shit already configured. All they'd have to do is open it, click on "Tasks", then "load mod profile" and then select the appropriate package.
>>147028765
Yes, but you will never get more than a tiny minority of people consistently following those standards. For everything else your clueless strawman would have to work it out on their own and since they can't even be trusted to move a directory from one place to another I don't feel too confident about that.

>>147028875
>you will never get more than a tiny minority of people consistently following those standards.
I'll have to concede you that because it's way too late, if the right people became aware of it 6 years ago or so it could've become the standard. Either way I use it myself with STALKER, Silent Hunter 3 etc because it's really convenient, especially when installing mods that require absurd amounts of drag n drops.
First time playing CoC in a while so I'm deleting my gamedata, using the cocdater to reaquire files and installing mods.
What's the suggested install order for the mods? I've got AO, Warfare, Autumn addon, dynamic quests addon, BAP, fog weather killer, radios galore, Misery AF3 (fuck default AF).
I understand if all cannot be installed on one game, these are just the ones I want to use.

CoP is arguably the most polished, but that doesn't make it the best
>>147029761
>surely jgsme can sort that out no problem with only a few clicks
Yeah, if there was a config for that.
>>147029719
CoP has the most potential with mods of the games, but it's definitely worse than SoC in vanilla.
>>147029980
I have never met a mod that made CoP not feel mushy and lifeless and I have played a lot of CoP mods
>>147029397
BAP+Radios galore+warfare all change all.spawn you would have to make your own merge.
>>147030162

Fucking neck yourself, you worthless idiot. Vanilla was never good, and the only thing you are going to fucking do by suggesting newcomers to play vanilla is put them off.
>>147030751
As far as SoC goes, either get ZRP or AMK1.4.1 with relevant patches.
>>147030881
I should make the point I already played SoC twice. I want at least some difference in it, or at least some overhauls.
>>147031081
Vanilla SoC is the best experience I have ever had in a stalker game
>>147031091
Read the OP anyways. The second post specifically.
>>147031091
AMK AE or OGSE 0692
>>147026403
>YOU DO SOME FAVORS FOR ME AAAAAND WE'RE EVEN

That's either a severe case of nostalgia or out right shit taste.

>>147031206
I'll look into them. thanks guys.
>>147031157
Well actually I can agree SoC is the best experience I've had so far, but I haven't done any mods with it either.
I fucked up CS too by not doing any factions.
>>147031296
If you're going to do both, play AMK before OGSE, or it will seem very dull in comparison.
>>147031415
Or you could play OGSE first and get to appreciate how much of its clusterfuck of bullshit AMK /doesn't/ have.
>>147030293
Warfare has a radios and BAP merge if I remember correctly. More wondering about the others, or doesn't it matter?
>>147031481
that's a fair point
>>147031091
>>147031296
Ignore ZRP then, since you say you've played vanilla game twice already.
As far as other suggestions go, try AMK first, since it's pretty minimalistic and has just the right amount of new/cut content to make the game a lot more enjoyable. OGSE is a lot more radical, so get to it once you are done with AMK.
>>147031484
i dunno try it
>>147031415
I'm not looking to replay that many times, so I'll probably just do OGSE if that's the case.
>>147031481
>>147031560
Oh.
>>147031567
All right, thanks for the suggestions. Just gotta get through CoP real quick first.
>>147032627
Yeah, i'd say just rush through vanilla CoP, it's fun with mods but without them it's lacking.

>>147037595
:v
I want to reassure people - when I get a job I will still be working on my mods. I gotta be able to enjoy myself at some point god damn it; I've had little chance to enjoy the current WS with warfare (though I've conquered nearly half the zone so I'll be switching back into working gear soon enough). When I have a full time job I'll probably still dedicate most of my free time to stalker. I want to play with a completely finished warfare and WS as much as the next guy. I won't disappear.
>>147037784
yeah man, don't listen to the people yelling about you disappearing, do what you need to.
>>147037784
Hey, i'm glad you actually get to enjoy your mod, since it will give you a good motive to keep on developing it. I noticed that trader files are borked in v2 weaponsoup though, and when i tried to lower buy_item_condition to 0.0 or edit their inventories, it didn't change ingame. Do you know why this is happening?
>>147038019
Let me look into this. I've been using some custom files myself for the WS weapons, but it makes every trader basically the same so I haven't released it. I'll see whats up and hopefully at least post the trader file tonight. Though I guess i'd rather post a new full download since I fixed a lot of the fucky animations and haven't kept much track of the files I changed. Plus sr2m veresk :D
>>147038019
Also yeah that probably is the main reason I keep working on this shit haha; its the reason I'd keep working on it even if no one else enjoyed it to be honest.

This!
It really makes you want to get shit done and combined with a tad of good taste and axle grease,
it will become something nice and people will want to play it simply because they'll feel that it's not some glued together mess. It'll also make you feel good in the end, makes up for all the tedious work.
Man, all the stuff I'd shit out if I knew at least any basic coding...
Anyway, keep on working lad! It's always good to make people happy.

i have the full upgrade tree for the seva suit, the final thing is the last klevar upgrade, but it seems that i can only do this at the bandit tech guy after i give him the flash drive. but the bandits pretty much want my head on a plate at this point. is there any other way to get the upgrade?
>>147074041

Yes, Snake. It's a mod that has promised to redefine gunplay in the STALKER games, they say it'll be released some time soon.

Unmitigated garbage
>>147091702
Slav? Check. Shit tier machine translation? Check. Bad gunplay? Nope, it's actually alright, save for a shitty "boss". Writing? While it comes off as a "zone fanfic" it's at least interesting.
I'd wait for it to officially come out, it's still incomplete, and from what I understood it'll get a proper translation once it comes out.
>>147091936
I want to be rich.
>>147094147
yeah the gunplay looks good from what i've seen. Does it add a lot of quests/stuff to do?
looking for a mod with good gunplay that adds content over vanilla, and it looks alright.
>>147094436
It has absolutely nothing to do with vanilla CoP. As I already said it's a story mod and it's pretty short (even for being incomplete)

>>147101248
I don't know why so many mods insist on adding these things back into the game, they're clearly unfinished and were cut for a reason. Terrible animations, terrible sounds, feels so out of place.

There are a few small things you can add in the mod, if you want.
Altitude altitude
I asked in a thread in /v/ about this game since the bundle is going for $10 right now, but it seems to have been deleted or archived.
My question was: I want to get this bundle, but my only problem is that I have severe hearing loss and the games aren't subtitled. There is a subtitle/CC mod for it, but it requires older version of STALKER to be able to use it.
Does anyone know if there is a way to play the game with English subtitles on? I really want to play the STALKER games.
>>147101248
I'd think you would have to edit each smart terrain that has them and remove them or replace them with some other mutant.
>>147106624
>buying stalker
nice troll post fag
>>147101248
If you're playing Warfare there's an easy way to do it
>>147106624
Pirate the game and you can use the version you want.
>>147106624
In the stalker games where subtitles would help are there, just that there aren't subtitles for combat dialogue and other unimportant dialogue. You can easily manage without. Everything important is already in text form via usual chat menus and your PDA, so you won't miss out on anything really.

Hey, /sg/, I have a question. I got S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl about two weeks ago and I'm in the part where you first encounter Freedom. If I kill these Duty assholes, can I still come back to the Bar like nothing happened? Just concerned because I have all my stuff stashed there.

Hey Werejew, looks like the VSS has some really shitty accuracy. tried it with the 1p78, was gonna try with irons and the PSO, but anti-rad fucks you up like no other drug can (who knew?). It's pretty bad when your .45 pistol is a better sniper tool than your 9x39 primary...

It's that one anon with a fucked up monitor, from what I recall the game looks fine on his part.
>>147136726
So go over and just give him some USB stick with a decent setup and say you made him a copy of your original, just like in the old days.
Make him install it and try it out, to see if he likes it. Maybe give him some advice on how to approach this game in general, show him some hidden stuff to give him an idea about the exploration and shit.
What do you expect? His autist friend goes on and on about how hardcore and immersive S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is and that he should pirate it. So he goes on, completely clueless about everything regarding GSC and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.,
buys Clear Sky, loads it up fucking vanilla of course and then says that it's shit because he doesn't know anything about this game that kind of has to be known.
Sure, he could've gathered information on his own before cracking his piggy bank but you wanted him to get into a rather special game and didn't introduce him properly.
And then you come here, posting frogs and rambling about his incompetence. Why don't you go and buy the movie Sátántangó right now, it's pretty good! See how you'd like that.

This bait has potential, but that last point weakened it. Using proper grammar and spelling helps make your post look genuine. If your post is more believable, people will feel more inclined to reply. Thus for optimal harvesting of (You)s, one should put good care into making your post appear as honest as possible.

>>147139074
Everything but that unless you're doing it for bragging rights. And I really mean it. If you want inventory bloat you can play either 7.62 High Calibre Hard Life or Jagged Alliance 2 and I can assure you that those games are 1. actually good and 2. don't have nearly as many asinine design choices as Misery.

>>147138731
i told him quite a bit about stalker and shit, told him to search about it too. but i dont know him irl dude, he is just a friend i have on steam, didnt really tell him how hardcore it is or whatever just told him that he may like it because he is a pretty big fan of the fallout series, i even told him in what order to get the games but he ignored me and got clear sky first instead.

You should stop being friends with that "person".
>>147140873
Well, I am a slav, so you're not exactly wrong there.
>>147140865
You should try it. It's a fun game other than the fact guns are kinda shit and only really necessary to kill stronger enemies. I mean, it took me like 6 shotgun shells to kill one person last time I was fighting. And I was fucking proficient with guns.
>>147141013
>guns are kinda shit
Ew.
>>147141070
Well, they're not that shit, it mostly depends on RNG (just like IRL), but there's also the problem ammo is about as common and expensive as in Mad Max.
Which CoP mod added all the maps from CS and SoC, was it SGM?
>>147135536
>I got killed ergo it's shit
cut all contact with him
>>147141157
>it mostly depends on RNG (just like IRL)
I wouldn't be too sure about that. Also I like 7.62 and JA especially because of how satisfying the guns are, I'm not sure if I'd like an isometric game that is 100% about survival and always in ironmeme mode.
>>147141163
CoC, it's standalone.
>>147141253
>CoC
Nah, there was one I played maybe a couple years back, was definitely a mod. Just can't remember which one.
>>147141163
>>147141290
Yep, SGM also had them. But IIRC the part of the game played on those maps was kinda shit. And kinda is an understatement here.
>>147141253
Well, I only recommended NEO Scavenger because we were on the topic of inventory bloat. And NEO Scavenger has one of the most, if not the most, detailed (and fucking annoying when you forget something for the 1000th time) inventory system.
>>147141369
From what I recall SGM only adds a few maps, Cordon, the Swamps and the Dark Valley.
>>147141369
>NEO Scavenger has one of the most, if not the most, detailed inventory system.
I might give it a try if I can find a way to get rid of ironmeme that isn't making lots of backups then. I fucking love complex inventories, that's the other reason why I like 7.62 so much.
>>147139372
>he is a pretty big fan of the fallout series
People should stop believing there's such a big overlap between Fallout and Stalker, would save a lot of frustration.
>>147138731
I went into Stalker completely blind in 2011, played all the games in order completely vanilla and still loved the series. Only after that I started reading about it and modding the games. His friend sounds like a little bitch that got mad the game dared allow him to die.

Long time ago there was a screencap of a long discussion with references to the lines in the files governing stats that dealt with difficulty and what it changed. Does anyone have that or anything similar?
I know of some differences myself but I'd like all of them listed and verified through game's data, especially since there's still some disagreement in some stalker communities regarding what changes (how much of a bullet sponge/resistant are the enemies, how much damage something deals etc).
