good afternoon /sg/

>>474784801is it unpacked or do you still have to use lmaopowershell
>>474786175GAMMA? Yeah it's a bloated piece of shit that needs to run powershell to download its 100GB of mods. EFP is just extracting a 7gb archive into MO2 and you're good to go.
>>474788213What is EFP like, exactly? Is it another spinoff from Anomaly?
>>474789874Paraphrasing the Whatmod a little bit; it's a more straightforward recreation of Tarkov's gameplay in Anomaly. I've never played EFP, so that's all I can say.
>>474791337Well, that sounds awful.
Howdy ho fellas
where "bread"?
>>474801037here "bread"
>>474803192
Oblivion Lost has some cool models. I'm using this one for a bandit trader in Chernobyl Freeplay.

>>474784801based tripfag doing the needful
>>474777193So where do you find the code to this door?I could only get in with the ol' SVD bump trick
Is Clear Skies worth playing? I've read mixed things. Bear in mind, I'm playing on Xbox, so I can't download mods to fix broken shit.
>>474818929in the game filescode to the door exists, but it's not given anywhere in-game
>>474777812The only problem was bugs/crashes and hardcore balance. The first seems to have already been fixed in the last patches, the second is suddenly can easily fixed by yourself in the configs and the result is 2.5 only better. Some retards screaming like 3.0 is a completely different modification which become worse than 2.5 is so fucking retarded, because due to their stupidity they are not able to understand that they are annoyed only by a minor thing in the form of hardcore balance, and at the same time they do not notice the advantages in the form of a really cool alife, more freedom in new story and quests, because they have shit taste, “loved” 2.5 and considered it a ready-made “complete” mod. They don’t have the slightest understanding of what is difficult/easy and important/unimportant from the point of view of gamedesign and modding. Adequate fans of the buildo initially regarded 2.5 as damn empty, unfinished, and waited for 3.0 for the sake of the alife, new features and quest, in which OBT satisfied them.
>>474819279Probably not on console.
>>474819279Xray engine got ported to console? Unpossible.
>>474818929it was supposed to be obtainable from one of the dead scientists in the forest, and this is the case in build 2571 iirc. it's unknown why they cut it out in the final version.
>>474819279Many people go overboard with criticism, the key to enjoy CS is to take things slowly. Focus on obtaining supplies and gear and upgrade the latter, and many gameplay related issues will be solved.There are some bugs, most noticeable in the faction war mechanic, but many of them can be fixed simply be reloading a save.
>>474824885Clear sky is bad because it's both a prequel and a rehash especially if you ignore faction war completely, there's just nothing for you there. It doesn't help that it was more broken on release than SoC.
Sultan wants to see you.
>>474818929>>474824559There's nothing of worth inside besides another door that doesn't go anywhere, my guess is that they planned it to be something else much like how they planned the other road to lead to the actual brain scorcher. My question is, is this tunnel a train tunnel that leads to the complex by the entrance to X-19 or some kind of drainage? where does it lead to, is there a harbor at the Pripyat river we've never seen?
>>474826180>Clear sky is badinto the trash it goes
>>474819279Maybe. It is unfinished, is the most bugged of the three stalkers, and too focused into faction wars, but it’s probably worth an attemp.
>>474837780There's so many weird rails in the zone, Some just pass through like the swamp-cordon-darkscape line, but others just stop, like the one that comes from south west to the wild territory and goes through the overpass doesn't actually have an unloading area, a platform or some kind of transfer to the platforms and hangers at the other side, meanwhile the line that ends at the platform north of the map, goes for a little bit then ends within the same map. They can't be there for the sake of moving things within the same factory because they don't even reach the actual manufacturing buildingsOther weird rails are the one running Garbage-Agroprom and ending at the hangar and nowhere else, a trip so short it makes having a train there stupid, The one in Army warehouse that ends at the base and goes into the buried tunnel east and doesn't seem to connect to anywhere else on the map, then on Cop there's the the main line going south from Yanov towards god knows where, north and west to god knows where, and then around the mine and concrete factory back south into the Jupiter underground, which also connects to a shitload of lines we never see on the surface.
>>474837780I think there are 3 regular medkits on a shelf.
HOW DO I REMOVE INVENTORY VOLUME AIDS FAGGOTRY CRAP FROM OLR 3.0?

Playing vanilla.Just finished talking to Doctor.Still using the Tunder 5.45, but it's at 2/3rds durability so jamming pretty often.Should I finally upgrade to a different gun, like the Vintar or not yet, and if not, when should i upgrade?
>>474899812Grab a Vintar. If you lack ammo check out the place in this videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK-ew5qK6AE
>>474899812>>474904583Also check if you found the stash coordinates for pic related at the red forest. There's more ammo in there.

>>474924435it is almost openly stated in the games that they have contacts with the military
>vanilla item description>"Nobody knows who makes the bread but it's still edible and no one complains">modded item description>"Bread is one of the oldest prepared foods. Evidence from 30,000 years ago in Europe and Australia revealed starch residue on rocks used for pounding plants.[4][5] It is possible that during this time, starch extract from the roots of plants, such as cattails and ferns, was spread on a flat rock, placed over a fire and cooked into a primitive form of flatbread. The oldest evidence of bread-making has been found in a 14,500-year-old Natufian site in Jordan's northeastern desert.[6][7] Around 10,000 BC, with the dawn of the Neolithic age and the spread of agriculture, grains became the mainstay of making bread. Yeast spores are ubiquitous, including on the surface of cereal grains, so any dough left to rest leavens naturally.[8]"why do modders do this
>>474925710wikipedia articles in item descriptions are good for your soul althougheverbeit
>>474925710I don't know why but Russian mod authors seem to like writing walls of unnecessary text.
>>474924608Duty has a rocky past,it is openly stated that they have contacts as well as them being made by army deserters but the Army and Duty arent exactly all hunky dory seeing as skirmishes against both have been talked about
OLR 3.0 is such AIDS even my stash, which I paid good money for, doesn't have unlimited spaceI hope hi_flyer gets rectal rabies from a blind dog fucking him in the ass and dies
And yes Rabies is in fact a feature if you haven't played it
He really needs an adult to tell him this feature is just bad, huh? Play your own game, fuckwit
>>474929452I haven't even left the Garbage in OLR 3.0. I got a disease on my way to Medpribor and I couldn't muster up the willpower to walk over to Toad for like the 12th time.
>>474933473I love buildshit but this mod is just bad. IDK if everything in it is approved by the official buildshit committee, it's not fun to play.
I just bought an anomaly detector from Toad and it's already 0% condition. Why does it have condition? Just OLR things. Fuck this gay mod.
>>474934535I haven't read all of the buildo design documents but OLR 3.0 pretty much follows them down to a T. It's the most faithful remake of Oblivion Lost yet, almost exactly how GSC intended for it to be. The level of autism is honestly impressive. hi_flyer even got lost in the sauce, an anon here pointed out that he restored some stuff that was only in the builds for presentation purposes.That being said, I agree with you. It's not fun at all.This may sound weird but playing OLR 3.0 gave me a similar feeling to when I played the original Pathologic for the first time.
i dont understand the true stalker hate, is it just anti russian redditards memeing?
Is vanilla Anomaly good?
>>474942301True Stalker is not entirely bad but the mod sports some of the worst game design I've seen in a long time.
>>474943040been playing since march on and off, currently at chapter 8, no idea what you mean, its vanilla gameplay minus fast travel and more cutscenes
>>474934535idk what do you mean by "approved" because pretty much everyone, buildobratva or not, agrees that the features hi_flyer brought in OLR 3.0 are ridiculous and look like he just used some obscure mentions in desdocs to bring vasyan shit into gamplay for the sake of shock value is it approved as some obscure concept that briefly appeared in the documentation? yeahis it approved as good gameplay addition? lol, lmaofrom day 1 people tried patching and fixing that shit themselves and from the stories I've heard hi_flyer like every bitchy hardcur vasyan threw hissy fits about how the players are in the wrong and unworthy of the "experience"
>>474943805>its vanilla gameplay minus fast travelTrue Stalker also completely lacks alife.Have you done the Old Guard quest yet? If so, what did you think of it?
>>474942301railroading with no a-life
>>474942301STALKER if it was a in house developed Sony PS exclusive
>>474942301Really? You don't understand the hate for the UI which looks like it was made for a console exclusive ported to PC 5 years after release as an afterthought? You don't get the hate for the ridiculous amounts of cutscenes that would make even a sony moviegame fan roll his eyes? You don't get the hate for pissant bandits running around in cordon with mint condition NATO gear? I dropped the game before even leaving cordon and already found more than enough reason to hate this travesty. You telling me you "don't understand" tells me you must be fucking stupid. Are you stupid?
>>474949009didnt even notice, couldnt care less about where mutants/stalker spawn since the interaction is the same as always: shoot or ignore, im not tejastlaker levels of autistic to spend months tracking dogs over the map>>474952915>oh no the ui is readable, isnt brown and grey with pieces of shit and rust stretched jpegs on every border its le bad reddit said sostopped reading after that, dont ever you me again you stupid disgusting retard

>>474955518
>>474941564>>474944280Hey, look at the upside. When he finally finishes his ultimate vasyanshit vision, the mod will be there to get ripped apart and rebuilt into something more competent, much like Anomaly was a result of ripping apart Last Day and porting it to a custom fork of OpenXRay. And with his autistic attention to detail, he'll reimplement every idiocy that GSC ever came up with, so the work will be more or less dismantling the shit that doesn't make sense and refining the ones that do. Then it will truly be the best buildo mod ever made.
>>474958543last day and analmeme are basically the same
>>474958543That's pretty much what I'm waiting for. I legitimately think it can be a good mod. The a-life is insane.
>>474960149But it's Analmeme that became a solid foundation for other mods. Hopefully the same will happen with OLR 3.0.
>>474958543>Anomaly was a result of ripping apart Last Day and porting it to a custom fork of OpenXRay. they were all based on coc
>>474942635Eh, you'll probably want to install a handful of mods to skew it your liking. If you like it at all.
>>474961545>became a solid foundation for other modsthat's why every mod that strives to do anything more than simple file swaps or ltx editing chooses to go with other platforms?

Yo is there an alternative model for Hip that doesn't look like ass or isn't slutty?. I like the Aurora one but I'm playing inverno and the skank with a cleavage ruins my immersion.Also, any HD alternative models around that work with Gamma?.Thanks in advance
I got Rabies twice in OLRGot my blood tested for another 500 dollaridoosThere's a whole host of diseases to be found in this mess

>>474942301Good enough story but I wish it was built on top of vanilla Call of Pripyat with a-life mostly in tact. Far Cry-esque enemy outposts just aren't fun
UPDATE S.T.A.L.K.E.R. GUNSLINGER REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Finally Barman nigga
>>474992447True Stalker was hyped for years and years, talked about as tho it was THE triple A of stalker mods, and it came out being a generic CoP story mod with higher budget and bloat, looking like The Witcher 3.Go play smth like Return to the Zone
>>475000089>looking like The Witcher 3thats a criticism? w3 still looks great
bamp
driving cars in stalker is fun and im tired of pretending its not
I wanted to play SoC so I followed the quickstart guide and installed the ZR Project and shaders, going for (mostly) unmodded playthrough first. I looked at the FPS counter and is oscillates between my monitor's refresh rate (just 75hz) and 1400FPS, is there a way to cap the frame rate? V-Sync doesn't do shit here too, am I retarded? (Full AMD PC)
>>475018282I use Rivatuner to set the cap for the exe. Maybe there are other ways but it works for me.
>>475018282doesn't AMD have a control panel for the GPU? I have a Nvidia card and it's how I cap it
>>475021386>>475024815Thought there would be something since it's such a moddable game and old, thanks though guys.
>>474982354Not that guy but I've been playing since SoC launched and only tried western stuff on my first playthrough. After that it's been Abakan then VSS all the time.
I don’t understand why different types of rendering modes are separate and require a restart of the game to switch Simple dynamic lighting is essentially full dynamic lighting where lightmaps are used instead of dynamic shadows from the sun Static lighting is the same as dynamic lighting, but without surface materials (normal map, specular map) and with forward rendering instead of deferred.It was possible to simply do that when you disable the setting called “surface materials” and “sun shadows” in settings, the materials were turned off, lightmaps were used and the game looked like r1 without restarting
>>475031098Because thats the way it is. Thats the way its set up in engine, things are much cleaner this way.Why would you care about that anyways?
>>474954007You're the kind of tasteless nigger who prefers the Witcher 2 UI over W1 as well, aren't you?
>>475006692have you seen the menus and the overbabying that true stalker features?It's like if Rockstar made a stalker mod except the story is mid as fuck and falls apart bc WolfStalker had a wet dream about a UNISG Captain taht can teleport and is a badass
no ded
hi_flyer tongues my anus
DIET SAUSAGE IS STALKERS!
>>475027624But why? In SOC, warsaw pact rifles suck and are outclassed by all but the L85 in the NATO branch.>475031098It's not common forr games to switch entire directX APIs and rendering engines without needing a reboot.I think technically you can get away with doing vid_restart in the console, but devs aren't going to be telling people to do that instead of just restarting the game.
>>475031098It's not really a big deal. It's not like people are constantly switching between lighting modes.
>>475031098Nigga static is DirectX 8r2 is DX9r3 is DX10/11You don't just switch APIs willy nilly
>>475062375I like the abakan two-round burst and the vss bullet drop. Headshots kill everyone.
>>475064034But the two round burst is shit. If it worked like the real gun it would be a different story, but the fire rate and accuracy in vanilla is awful. Useless.
>>475066849>SOS markerIs it a friendly zombie?
>>475031098Because you're switching the entire rendering backend, that's the standard in every game that lets you switch between DirectX versions, or switch from DX to OpenGL or Vulkan. Static lighting is DirectX 8 only, so you need to change the entire rendering backend if you want that. That's just how it is.
>>475071597Static Lighting is Dx9, Dx8 was only ever used in the very first builds and was phased out, never made it to commercial
>>475072406>Static Lighting is Dx9nope
i hope s2 let us have long distance combat, the longest we have are cnpp monolith snipers not even over 100 meters, come on pepsiman, the zone has so much potential for sniping, we have the power to render a 1km map without pentiums laptops exploding

>>475079014Straight up wrong information,looking at the engine and the game files we can see what version of Dx it uses, it' 9It would be weird to be using 8Try running SoC with a Dx8 card
>>475076101
>>475072406>>475078183>>475080149Is it fun, speaking with great authority on something you know nothing about? Static is DX8 in SOC. Fact. Either CS or COP? Yes, they updated static to also be DX9 by then.
>>475080149>It would be weird to be using 8because everyone is using the latest hardware all the time? Tell it to the gtx 660 ti anon, he's somewhere in here
>>475080149Russian box lists directX 8 as minimum requirementBurger box lists directX 9Game itself says Static (DX8) in the fucking options menu
>>475081908>>475082109>>475082501For the game to be able to use Dx8 it needs to load it as a dependency,using this tool we can check which libraries the game loadshttps://www.dependencywalker.comIt uses the Dx9 librarie anonEven easier, get yourself RivaTuner and you will easely verify what Dx it is, Static refers to Dx9 not Dx8
>>475082109the 660 ti released in 201, wtf are you talking, it support up to DirectX11https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/graphics-cards/geforce-gtx-660ti/specifications/
>>475082908>look at what this random program says!
>>475082109Bitch, I had support for DX10 (but not 10.1) when I was playing these games with a 9600GT. Waht are you even talking about?
>>475083216>>475090106660 ti released 12 years ago retards

>>475082908RivaTuner doesn't support directx 8 and probably uses directx 9 to render the overlayYou're still retarded
>>475090786buy that GL, wish I did in my playthrough
>>475090545When do you think the 9000 series I explicitly mentioned came out, retard? 660Ti came out long after DX11 was a thing too, and we're talking games from 2007-2009.
>>475081626YOU GETWHAT YOU FUCKING DESERVE
>>475093832retard, people are still using 12 year old graphics cardsand you're complaining dx9 is from 2002 when stalker was developed from 2000 to 2007
>>475095390>people are usingWho cares? That has nothing to do with anything in this discussion. One guy using a 12 year old GPU to play 15-17 year old games has nothing to do with DX8 objectively being present in SOC.
>>475095774holy shit you're retarded please kill yourself
>>475096297Are you illiterate? Completely incapable of basic reading comprehension?
>>475096663I'm sick of talking to retards. Kill yourself.
based retard autism going on
>>475096297>>475072406nta but you're wrong.Go look at the source code if you donr believe it.dx8 exists and is used in release soc 1.0006 for static lighting.
>>475102160>dx8 exists and is used in release soc 1.0006 for static lighting.this is common knowledge
My copy of SoC, albeit having the unofficial 1.0008 patch, uses DirectX 9. Verified by looking into what DLL's are hooked into the process, no d3d8.dll in sight. If anything, it's possible that X-Ray is written in a way where it will use DX9 for static lighting when it's available, but in case of you having a GPU so old that it only supports DX8, it'll use that for static lighting. Your best bet is probably setting up a WinXP VMware VM with hardware 3D acceleration and giving it DX8 only to test it in a modern environment.
Been a while since /sg/ had an autism meltdown. I knew we were in for one.
So which non-freeplay mods actually have GOOD a-life? AMK?
>>475104716OLR 3.0 and OLR 2.5
>>4751048152.5 doesn't have good alife

I've stopped seeding stalker 2 build at 2.00 share ratioHonestly it's not worth the disk space
The Pseudogiant has two communities listed in SoC. The creature .ltx file lists "pseudo_gigant" as the community but the game_relations file lists "giant" as its community. Funnily enough using either one for smart_terrains works.

>>475097186>>475104329Christ alive, you're on 4chan. Your name is Anonymous. What bullshit reddit username pride do you have that forces you to refuse to admit you're wrong about something? >>475104329You in particular are fucking retarded. Static lighting in SOC is DX8. Full stop. My system is on windows 11. Using the downgrade patch from 1.0006 to 1.0005 causes the DX9 renderer to suddenly not work. Whatever the cause is, nobody knows. Switching the renderer to r1 allows it to work just fine. Now explain how that would work if both r1 and r2 were DX9. You can't.
Signing off for the night with this cool screenshot I took of a snork in Agroprom.

26th of april, chernobyl fuck-up anniversary. it's time to being my annual replay of soc.in pure vanilla, like griga intended
>>475186170>suppressor>flame particlesreeeeee>vanillaanon pleasenobody plays straight vanilla after the first few times at most
>>475187528>nobody plays straight vanill-I do.
Playing vanilla stalker is like playing vanilla warband. It's a dumb meme perpetuated by clout chasers nobody in their sane mind would put themselves through.
>>475186170Not even with ZRP?
>>475178837the one that has visible upgrades
i watched some youtube videos about this game and ended up downloading a modded version of the game so i start a new save and picked a random spawn that was like inside of this abandoned building i see some glowing green shit outside so i take a different way out of the building and i just start hearing this weird sound and instantly diei tried leaving the building a couple different ways but i just die everytime
>>475189427do you think you are fucking funny??
>>475189859nothing funny about my first experience in the game i was kinda expecting a skyrim with guns in russia but im just stuck and dont know what to do next
>>475189427ARE YOU MAD DO NOT REDEEM THE MODIFICATIONS FUCKING BENCHOD DO THE VANILA
>>475189427>>475190018For fuck's sake, play the official trilogy first before trying mods.
>>475189349You mean the laser on the pistols and scopes on guns?
>>475187528>nobody plays straight vanilla after the first few times at mostwhy? >>475188308again, why?>>475189091what for?the game works fine in vanilla. i get why someone would want to use zrp, but claiming that the game is unplayable without it just ridiculous. this is like my 15th replay, and i can't recall any gamebreaking bugs or crashes that couldn't be avoided.
>>475189427>>475190018This is bait and you can't convince me otherwise.

>>475187767because ur a stupid faggotthe gay dragonball shit confirms
>>475119763Said the guy that treats the question of technicalities in a 17 year old game as something super serious and important. All I have to say is: lol calm down
>>475198558>why?because mods exist
If I was in charge of writing SoC's dream sequences, ALL of them would have just been Strelok obliterating tsunamis of rats with a Protecta even though the Protecta only showed up in CoP.
I haven't played STALKER since CoC was new and playing it with Doom's mod merge was the shit, probably something like 5-8 years ago. What's the most basic but complete CoCk-like experience nowadays?
>>475198859That running animal animation looked so bad. What's the point of advancing graphic fidelity if you can't get the fundamentals right?It's like artists that learn digital coloring without grasping anatomy and perspective, and retards lap it up because they don't know any better either.
>>475208185Probably still CoC. Maybe DoctorX's version of it.Anomaly is very stable but it sports Misery-like gameplay very different from the original games.
>>475208528>That running animal animation looked so bad.I know, takes me back.
>>475198859I hope this is real gameplay but you and I both know it's all edited to look good. but I hope
>>475208185Someone here once recommended DoctorX's Call of The Zone with Rhons' Mod Repack; according to their rundown (that I can personally verify as true), it has a great variety of features and QoL stuff while staying true to the core gameplay of CoC/CoTZ. The one gripe everyone who's played it has is the fact that making a profit is maybe a little too quick; something like 30K roubles after two or three missions.One thing you might want to watch out for that I've personally experienced is that "get this gun for me" quests will return nil sometimes, probably need to install the optional Arsenal Overhaul files included with the repack to fix that.
>>475198859>New trailer dropped on the anniversary of the Chernobyl accidentI can't tell if that's neat or a little tasteless, what's the attitude towards the whole thing in Ukraine nowadays, still mourning it or just over it?
>>475208547>>475209614Sweet I'll try that then. I did always dislike Misery and every incarnation of it and I'm guessing it's still the same shade of brown and stupid. More vanilla like sounds good. Thanks.
>>475210178Good hunting, Slutsky.Still can't post Sidogiant, FUCK.
>>475210178Because you mentioned Doom's Mod Merge, there are different variations of it out there. A guy on ModDB recently managed to fix the save corruption bug.
>>475210080People keep propping up Volodymyr Yezhov's corpse like an effigy to encourage people to preorder STALKER 2 so I think we've long passed the realm of good taste.
>>475206282I accept your concession.>>475209614Hardkkkore mods have really brainwashed people into thinking earning the equivalent of a week's paycheck in a shitty full-time $8.21/hr job, pre-tax, is "earning too much money".
>>475216015nta, generally speaking I agree with you but the roubles in stalker are the soviet ones, they act like some sort of tokens/crypto currency so comparing it to the shitty russian money shouldn't really be a thing
>>475216015>Hardkkkore mods have really brainwashed people into thinking earning the equivalent of a week's paycheck in a shitty full-time $8.21/hr job, pre-tax, is "earning too much money".To be fair, it may be "earning too much". It's all relative to the local economy, right? If you can get 30k roubles in the first 15 minutes and that's enough for a decent assault rifle, some ammo, and a nice suit, that pretty well negates the hobomode part of the game.
>>475217869It's been discussed a few threads ago that in the Zone you use Soviet rubles and they work like casino tokens. When you want to cash out at a trader, you get hryvnas, rubles or other currently used fiat currencies at the right exchange rate.>>475218228I believe that the economy in STALKER should be that you never go out of ammo, meds and food. In SoC it was well balanced where the game awarded you for scavenging in the early stages. But it didn't punish you MISERY style where you could barely get a single bullet while some cheeki breeki bandit could mag dump his AK up your ass over and over again, but if you killed him he'd have five shitty bullets on him for you to take.
>>475198859>taaits so fucking over
>>475219436Well, yeah, it's Unreal, obviously it'll look like vaseline smeared shit.
just watched some documentary video about canceled stalker 2 and it was mentioned how shortly before the whole shitstorm GSC was looking for investors for the gamethen it hit me that current stalker 2 could have ended just like the old one if grigorovich hadn't found investors for the studio like that krippa guy last year
>>475218228The hobomode is overrated and lapped up by autists. Even in vanilla, the only faggots still waddling around with double barrels and maks are the guys who sit around the relatively speaking safe edges of the zone and never go on big raids, loot fallen enemies, or yoink artifacts to sell. Even fire pit-bait like Wolf and the guys who hang around the garbage are running MP5s and Krinks.
>>475219436>antialiasing every game hasoh noSharpening filters, SMAA, etc.
>>475221339>antialiasing every game hasYeah because everyone is using Unreal. Doesn't mean it's fucking good, it's shit, and any normal person will say it's shit and that Tim Swiney is full of shit.
>>475170949But the door is locked?

>>475230808>Don't tell me whatever this is (OLR?) is pulling that stupid fucking meme where you're forced to use handheld lights instead of the headlamp everyone else has.Headlamp is just worse than a torch, I use both
>>475230808You'd be surprised at how much stupid shit OLR 3.0 pulls overall.
>>475230808>passion projectIt's a commercial product made for profit by a sizable studio. Don't talk about it like it's an indie game made by one dude in his mom's basement out of "muh passhun".>It's all so tiresome.Yeah, people using the war to deflect any sort of criticism towards GSC is very tiresome.Looking forward to STALKER 2 being a mess on release and everyone excusing it's state with "GSC fled from rocket strikes, you don't understand". Announced in 2018. Initial release date 2021. Went from fleeing from the war to getting back to work in three months. It's 2024 and it's still vaporware, but at least GSC has one hell of a deflection for this state of affairs.
>>475230808>>flee to safety so you don't get killed in a rocket strike while making a passion project>>nooooo you can't support your homeYes, they should have stayed and fought to the last HoholVery unpatriotic

reeeeeeee
>>475237691>STALKER 2 being a mess on releaseIt's SoC all over again!
>>475238887Holy shit, what is hi_flyer thinking? Different anon here but I would never have guessed that was an entrance, even less so when there's a door in the wall.
>>475249616>Holy shit, what is hi_flyer thinking?Wait, he was thinking?
>>475237691>it can't be a passion project because it's made to be soldWell shit, I guess indie games aren't passion projects either because they're all made to be sold too. Fucking retard. They wouldn't be trying to make the game, a second time over, for years, while a war is going on in their home country, if they weren't passionate about it. Fuck off back to /vpol/ .
>>475238887>real entrance: a hole in the floor that's clearly closed off and not physically accessibleIt really is just impossible to get an actually good buildo recreation that doesn't get high off its own farts and wind up retarded. Lost Alpha and its abandonment of the goal to chase illuminati fanfiction, OLR with soup-tier trash and tedium mechanics that actually manage to surpass misery and analmeme/gaymma in extremity. Where are the projects that promise to rebuild ca. 1935-2571 buildo as they were intended to be as finished products, or just bring back cut parts like Darkscape (complete with helo chase and a car, any scripted invulnerability needed to make it possible), Cordon having a factory, the entire Dead City sequence, actually meeting with the crazy stalker in the back room of the bar and getting info from him before he offs himself instead of there just being a PDA entry saying it happened, etc.? All without any retarded bullshit or made up stories?
>>475253410>actually meeting with the crazy stalker in the back room of the barI can tell you that Shadow's Addon recreates this scene and it's really cool. If I remember correctly that mod also did the whole Dead City sequence.Come to think of it Shadow's Addon is probably the best build mod out there in terms of adding back cut content/story elements and nothing else.
>>475200215protecta is ancient trash>>475205023electricity and impact icons still swapped
>>475256883>eeting with the crazy stalker inI intend to keep it that way to perserve the authenticity of the mod
>>475253410>OLR with soup-tier trash and tedium mechanics that actually manage to surpass misery and analmeme/gaymma in extremityJust started 2.5, is it really like that or are you referring to 3.0 specifically?
>>475259468what?
>>475260208Not that anon but I'm pretty sure he's talking about 3.0. OLR 2.5 has nothing of the sort.
>>475200215cringe soulsfaggot
>>475253410olr specifically tries to recreate the game from before build 1935, with heavy emphasis on things from design. documents. for 1935-2571, there is rma and its derivatives.
Just finished creating entirely new smart_terrains for the military base in Agroprom in Chernobyl Freeplay. In the vanilla smart_terrain the soldiers keep stopping in the stairwell of the main building and it makes it really annoying to get through the building if you're playing as a military-friendly faction.
>>475260208>>4752635942.5 definitely has some soupy stuff like sentient talking zombies that instakill you if you attack them instead of follow their stupid questline.
Sweet dreams, /sg/.

>>475320364>>475319462I was going to give you the benefit of the doubt and think it cool to make some stalker stuff in the 2015 branch of gamebryo, but this looks like ass. This looks like the starting town whose name I've forgotten, but with shitty dayz mechanics and an obnoxious visual fitler. Adding lean to gamebryo/creaion is cool at least, but nah.
Is it worth it to download 200gb of leaked build of STALKER 2?
>>475377037It wouldnt look bad if it were a tad less dark and the light moon or whatever that it was less intense.If its supposed to be a moon+fog combo it just looks wrong to be that thick fog but not wherever the player goes.Could be cool, Id be a better judge if I played it.
>>475383221the real question is.... is it worth it to you. And do you want to spoil some things for yourself.

>>474881428oblivion lost
Best way to play AMK 1.4 in 2024? Still the usual way (installer)?
>>475400795what do you mean "oblivion lost"?go find it then
It's insane how dead VoA is compared to OLR 2.5The place is a goddamned wasteland, even mutants are missingNot having fun so far. Boring.
>>475401001you are my oblivion, whom i lost
>>475398692Technically it's a dev leak so it's not file size optimized, but then again the official recommendations are 150GB. STALKER 2 will need as much disk space as having GAMMA and OP-2.2 installed at the same time, or a whole bunch of other quality mods that aren't equally bloated pieces of shit.Remember when game developers used to give a shit about optimization?
Although Oblivion was Lost, the Shadow of Chernobyl was found.
>>475400995my go to is the amk ae 1.4.1 (the stable one)then if I get sick of the autumn shit, I just use the AA2 de-autumnizer from the Autumn Aurora 2 repo
Oblivion Won
>>475219436>its so fucking overI realized it was over once I played the demo back in November of 2023. The game ran like ass on a 13900k + 4090 system, and it had smearing out the fucking ass. At least UE5 lets you disable the shitty TAA through the config files.
>>474838134>>474841229Clear Sky is worth playing. Even though much of the music I am familiar with making is dark-ambient or industrial or rock/metal-influenced, am I the only one who thinks that the perfect music to listen to while playing this game is rap? I just really like the hood classics.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CL6n0FJZpkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk6014HuxcEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDApZhXTpH8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My9WTi7PN1II think it's especially so while playing as bandit. Listening to stuff like this while gunning down some rival clan member with a handgun perfectly fits the fucking vibe. Get off my block motherfucker.
>>475198859pretty sure I've seen the "new" trailer scene last summer when the leaked cutscenes dropped. Also it's obvious they dubbed it with the ukrainian voice using the English lip sync.At least the last trailer with Strider wasn't in the leak. Kinda sucks that GSC are using last year's shit to market their game.

>>475446525I will also say that we Americans are equally guilty of this sin as well, every single American "representative" who has stood in the way of this, has no fucking business in being in office at all. The vast majority of whom are uneducated imbeciles, like that fucking cunt from Georgia.

>>475450490The fuck are you talking about? There are people who discuss real issues, and people who die of fentanyl "overdoses" or have "heart attacks" and do so as others please, at the behest of unelected people.
>>475450795what stalker mod are you talking about?
>>475451049>what stalker mod are you talking about?The real one. Back to our regular programming, lots of people malign Clear Sky, but much of the assets and programming from it influenced the sequel.
>>475451209>assets and programming from it influenced the sequel.does that make it a good game?
>>474867194What mod is that? Look like CoP
>>475451526>does that make it a good game?This is an entirely different can of worms, Clear Sky was very much "on rails" compared to the other games, which I dislike.
>>475451617Even that said, there were things from Clear Sky they tested that I liked, the faction war system, and most importantly the entire smartcover system. Combat was "realer" in Clear Sky because of the way the AI handled it.
>>475451617CoP with some faction stuff would have been fun to spice up the otherwise infamous empty theme park. After a lot of thinking I think it's just one of those things where the atmosphere in SoC was a windfall, and the compensations that seem silly now weren't enough in the other games
>>475452380>CoP with some faction stuff would have been fun to spice up the otherwise infamous empty theme park.The problem from the whole programing perspective is that they would have had to have coded so many of these as distinctive smart terrains, and much of the AI staff that had done stuff like that had left for Metro at the time already.
>>475451526>does that make it a good game?The answer to that question is quite literally both yes and no. They introduced new assets and mechanics, but fucked other things up or made things untenable.

>>475476970carnage.
for me, it's the thought of the zona.the locations, the anomalies, the mutants and the secret labs and lore you get from documents, talking to stalkers etc. the games had jank, but i didnt mind. it felt very immersive and real considering that i grew up in a place not to different from rural ukraine and towns filled with commie blocks everywherewhich is why i dont really understand how some people prefer to play stuff like anomaly/something that resembles anomaly where there is little no to story. it's pretty much always combat or doing fetch/kill quests
>>475476970>rolling in loot as one guy dropped a 50% OTs-14 Groza with 30+ rounds of ammo and stack of broken ak's and a few smgsall that to get pretty much nothing lel
>>475198759>>475192316>>475191187call me a zoomer but that was honestly my experiencei watched a short of the game and then looked up a video on it and it said call of pripyat was like single player tarkov but better so i joined the discord and downloaded the game anyway im going to play this game from the first one now
>>475420936wow rude af my guy
>>475479035>it said call of pripyat was like single player tarkov but betterYou should know that's a complete lie.I hope you enjoy SoC.
>>475481315my bad the mod was called escape from pripyat but yeah imma start the game properly
>>475446525>Furthermore, the people of Ukraine are actual heroes, who have bothered to fight while the rest of the "Europeans" sit on their literal fucking laurels arguing about how much aid to send to them instead of actually doing anything.Article 5 wouldn't put your house in a spatial anomaly, the war would come to your doorstep. Not that you'd have the two braincells required to predict that chain of events.>>475478607>which is why i dont really understand how some people prefer to play stuff like anomaly/something that resembles anomaly where there is little no to storyAnomaly is like Bethesda's Fallout. It's open world slop for people who just want to go around and go pew pew, rather than play something like New Vegas where the setting, story and quests is the meat of the game. That and the usual OperatorDrewski astroturfing GAMMA so the fandom got invaded by milsim tourists spiel.
>>475482747>escape from pripyat That makes more sense, lol. EFP imports Tarkov-like gameplay to STALKER.I'm gonna give you a protip: In the starting village in SoC, check all the rooftops for a hole in the roof. One of the attics has a box with something cool in it.
>>475477167Why do some screenshots of Anomaly look decent while others look like fucking garbage? Is it the ENB? The viewmodel?
>>475485978Depends on the weather I guess.
>>475484621which difficulty should i play on? also thanks for the tip
>>475487054Veteran. Second to hardest is always a good choice for just about any video game.
>>475483231the dlc for new vegas was better than the story honestly. plus its not like the community isnt filled with massive faggots and trannies who will kill you if you play the game however you want while astroturfing (to quote (you)) its story and everything it does

>>475485978viewmodel/textures/settings/lighting/weather etc all play a part
>>475487627the developer of the mod said to another dude with the same problem to check if i have only english characters in my windows name, i'm pretty sure i do. To another dude he said that the steam edition sucks for modifications, so am i fucked unless i buy SOC from GOG?
>>475490047I've played mods on SoC Steam before. You can also download SoC from the links in the OP.
>>475484621is this the cool thing?
>>475491729One of them, yeah. If I remember correctly you find that artifact in a basement. Check the roofs of the houses, you can jump between some of them with a running jump.
>>475484621It doesn't. In v1 and v2, it was trying to replicate EFT a little bit. But after v2.5 and now v4.2, it's just a really well put together modpack for anomaly. Devs are cool, but their mods on the discord server are completely fucking retarded.

Is the new trailer in Russian or Ukrainian? I'm a southern slavoid and they all sound the same to me
>>475508437Ukrainian
>>475509062>2021Kek>>475508437They sound pretty similar but for me at least I can barely read Ukranian compared to Russian.
>>475508437Based on current world events, what do you think honestly?
>>475508437You need to listen more to both if you can’t tell the difference.t. not slav
>>475514471Once you know how Russian is meant to sound then it's easy to tell when it's not Russian. Some things make sense, but it's not exactly right. Ukrainian is pretty characteristic with the usage of "h" sounds, since in Ukrainian "г" is "h" but in Russian it's "g", but Ukrainian uses it as much as Russian. Similar thing when you're Polish and you read/listen to Czech/Slovak. It seems similar, you can make some of it out, but you know it's different. You may not be able to tell if it's Czech or Slovak, but you can tell it's not Polish, and that's the main distinction.
>>475408183>t. zoomer who doesn't know what optimization meansStick to indieshit if you want games to be restricted to what a dual-layer DVD could hold over a decade after tthe time when that was necessary. Storage is dirt cheap. It's not an "optimization" issue that you're shitting your pants on a 250GB 5400RPM drive in 2006+18.
>>475420110>last year's shitThe leak wasn't a marketing trailer you absolute shitbrained toddler. Do you think this trailer was made from scratch in a couple hours before it was released? It's part of the game and yeah, no shit, they've been working on parts of the game including the cutscenes for long enough that a cutscene may also exist in the hack dev leak.

>>475483231FO3's atmosphere and feel is superior to that of NV.NV is simply too whacky most of the time.
>>475489516Damn that looks nice what mods are you using?
>>475521472>Storage is dirt cheapYou'd need to dedicate a 1TB SSD to have about 5 modern games installed at once with the modern standards.>>475521472>It's not an "optimization" issue that you're shitting your pants on a 250GB 5400RPM drive in 2006+18.I have a 2TB NVMe SSD for games. The most outdated part of my system is the GPU from 2016. At this rate I'll need a dedicated 8TB NVMe PCIe 5.0 SSD to keep up with the "modern standards".>>475521472>t. zoomer who doesn't know what optimization meansModern games are unoptimized. Devs don't give a shit about optimizing assets or adding mipmaps so that the game doesn't waste disk space and doesn't require a 4090 to run at 60FPS in 1080p because it streams uncompressed 4K textures because instead of optimally using all the advancements in technology, devs just use it as an excuse to be lazy.I understand you'll staunchly defend the state of Starfield too, because modern computers shouldn't have any issues loading uncompressed textures and tens of thousands of polygons per small prop?

>>475554751Damn, you got embarassed.
I've stopped playing Stalker for more than an hour a week since 2016 and I'm very impressed how the modding scene still keep progressing.Anomaly, Gamma, Expedition and all other modpacks made me feel like I've been living in a cave. Though none of them really satisfy my craving. I want the old Zone of Alienation style magazine system where you have to spend some time loading rounds into magazines, plus the Tarkov-like healing system where you have to treat each body part when damaged and 3D scopes from Gunslinger. All three will really change how combat works, incentivize long preparation and quick combat like in real life but none of the modpacks include all three. What I see in modpacks nowadays are dozens of new weapons, armor, attachments, the Tarkov-like healing system and most importantly, thousands of items to significantly lengthen the hobo phase. The scene doesn't really fit me and now I feel like I should go back into my cave.

Is the family rifle located in bar or in rostok? OLR 2.5
>>475530829All I'm hearing is "waaaah waaaah my low budget selection of a tiny amount of drives isn't enough anymore". There is no optimization issue. You're just a spoiled bitch raised on 7th gen consoles causing 8 years of everything being made for 2005 budget hardware, lulled in by false promises of being able to rock a 2nd gen i5, a 750ti, a spinning rust hard disk with a low capacity, and 4GB of DDR3 ram and be able to play an entire generation of games at 720-1080p high. Those of us who aren't retarded zoomers and spoiled late millenials remember when you still had to uninstall games when you were done, games that were small enough to fit on a 700MB CD or less, because the standard storage drive of the time was a 20GB hard disk and you needed space for the OS and other files. It is easier than ever for anyone with income (no apologies to worthless NEETs who feel entitled to anything) to have a system more than capable of playing modern games at better settings than before, and equally trivial to have the storage space to store games that now take up hundreds of gigabytes without having to remove things. Unless you're retarded and fell for the NVME meme in an era where the highest end systems can support maybe 4 drives, but that's once again user error.

>>475591827Which ones anon? >>475578963 these?I run at 4k and 60hz and only get a light stutter every now and then. Max graohics aside from lower grass height and density on a 3060tiIf you look around Moddb they're might be a setting/load order or something thats making it fucky
>>475597303i followed this guidehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do45zIx6SYsmy game not online does not even look as good as it does in the video, it also runs at like 40 fps im going to tweak some in game settings and see what happens later...
>>475591827I have a 3070 and could play it at 2460x1440 with max settings other than the grass density. I also have the screenspaceshaders installed too, but I would get odd slow downs of all places inside buildings but not outside. Also it didn't seem to work great with beefs NVGs, places like the jupiter undeground were pitch black even with nv on.
>>475561698There's mags redux, you can add it to gaymmaI'm sure there's see through scopes too
>>475599591you dont want grass density maxed out, its a forest and very unrealistic to boot
>>475602719Nta, I LOVE the insane tall and dense grass but the enemy AI is bullshit, even with my stealth mods, they see me through dense bushes so I keep it low>>475598264Make sure to clear your cache when booting up the game, try to load a default preset. I still have issues at night where its REALLY dark sometimes and I'm trying to tweak it. Anomaly mods can do weird shit depending on what else is installed, sometimes deleting and reloading the mod can help
>>475603992>Anomaly mods can do weird shit depending on what else is installedWow what a stable platform for modding
>>475603992>Nta, I LOVE the insane tall and dense grass but the enemy AI is bullshitSame, its so comfy but you can't see shit so you're at a disadvantage as the AI can see through it.

>>475611625what do you mean be autistic about
>>475611625>i think it looks good?Yeah, no shit, it's a directed trailer, it's meant to look good to upsell the game. Cyberpunk 2077 also had good looking trailers and everyone knows how they compared to the final product that hit the market.
>>475600484It's pretty much the same but I miss the animation where you load each cartridge into a magazine from ZoA too. Something about the animation feels relaxing when seen out of combat.

Those guys working on Dead Sky released a closed beta but you need to contact them on moddb or harmony.
>>475689649>the movement is fucked and has loads of input delayworse than gunslinger or did they fuck up horribly?
>>475697532Way way worse than gunslinger, there's also some weird advanced headbobbing going on bc they render the entire body and make it so first person anims are also third person, its kinda cool but bugged as fuckIt's alpha tho, I expect and implore them to remove the input delay that was present in GA and is pronounced here
do the weapon statistics mean anything in OLR 2.5? for example it says the FN Hi power does more damage than the Beretta 92FS
>>475701931get a Stechkin APS and never look back
Matter of factly in OLR 3.0 Stechkin has the same hit_power as 9x39 gunsYeahThis is following True Stalker and its Stechkin doing more damage than full power riflesStechkin bros keep winning

>>475687731How good is alife? NPC really can walk anywhere? 2.5 was so fucking bad at this, walking respawnable NPC was only on one short path at garbage between river and railroad and at north of escape, anything else in 2.5 WAS COMPLETELY DEAD AND STATIC
>>475725831Alife is best, but sometimes there is too much NPCsIt can be ever better if there was freeplay-survival mode without scripted bases and characters, let say CoC 1.5 r7/CotZ at maximum
>>475725831A-life starts off good but then settles into fairly static smart terrains with little wandering. Offline A-life is state of the art, NPCs will find seekrit documents before you do. Funny things still happen occasionally.

>>475727030A-life = smart terrains and general NPC behavioryou're describing general AI things, which OLR is admitedly bad at
I would enjoy this shit mod if it wasn't for anything to do with the main story lineIt's both blatant padding and bad designTerrible, simply terribleAnd you can't just ignore it because more than half the zone is locked out otherwiseTo improve OLR stuff either needs to be cut or the zone opened up so you can just do the side quests and freeplay stuff without having to do the main quest which is SHIT
>>475727536We just need freeplay start for OLR 3.0But looking at hundreds of scripts with kilotons of code I'm guess it's not easy to do

>>475734726actually I can't do that, because the game crashes consistently when I come backguess it's buying a gun from Fake Sidorovich
on top of being shit it's also an alpha that crashes all the goddamn time
>Scheduler tried to update object gar_bandit_respawn_158432Every time
Ended up having to cheese it with god mode, it's just not doable with constantly jamming guns/belt system/medkit animationsRunning away to get/buy a usable gun is the smart option but the game crashes if you tryAnyone know where the Sin guy's safe is? It's different from the safe they stored my guns in
>>475739605>safeOh it's right next to him. Last place I would look.
Also there was critical psi-emission levels on Army Warehouses but now that you've done Dark Valley Lab (worst part by far) it's suddenly goneIIRC Army Warehouses was accessible from the start in OLR 2.5And I'll bet you any sum you care to name OLR 3.0 won't let you kill the Sin nerds in advance, the leader is probably invincible or something dumb like that
So Barman is gone, and trying to visit Fake Sid crashes the game with >Scheduler tried to update object gar_bandit_respawn_158432I guess I'm done with OLR 3.0

>>475752910Find me a mod with buildo swamps and you have yourself a deal
>>475753143They are present in New Arsenal 7 (right next to CS swamps and called Dead Marshes). Sid has a quest to retrieve his tractor and gives you the level transition. There are also some bandits near a shack that usually get mauled by pseudogs. One of them drops a unique abakan that can be put to good use until mid-game. There are plenty of buildo maps scattered around NA7.
>>475748309I talked to OLR nerds and their solution is "wait on a different map", which only results in a different patrol having inaccessible vertexes in its path or whateverAnd fixing this shit will probably mean editing olr.spawn fileAnd you all know that requires a new game lmao
>>475753513Thanks I'll probably hate it just like I hated OLR 2.5 and OLR 3.0
>>475753898It's not trying to recreate buildo. It's SoC with extra guns, quests and maps. A bit soupy since you have dream sequences where you shoot nazis.
>>475754265Yeah I don't hate SoC but I'll find a reason to hate New Arsenal just for you babe
>>475754446You can buy a sabertooth in a backpack and deploy it against enemies. That might be one.
>>475754614WTF I love New Arsenal 7 nowJust like my pitbull grenade from Syndicate Black Ops
>>475751268Wait Lost World CoP, it should have real Chernobyl on which is based buildo maps. Look at Google Maps, it's basically buildoescape+buildobar polished to ideal.
>>474777193stakler co-op when?ray of hope when?
>>475763683never and neveractually there are a couple co-op mods out
>>475767260what mods?xrMPE released?

>>475778061MOHOЛИT board
Is the enhanced rifle quest from duty in olr 2.5 located in rostok or the military warehouses?Map marker shows rostok, but quest description mentions it's military warehouses
>>475786517
>>475788332I would rather trust the map marker. In SoC fetch quests the map marker is tied to the object specified in the game files. I assume OLR functions the same way.
>>475727536>>475727724>freetards get filtered by having to do any story content at allCan you even play SOC vanilla anymore, or do you need some cheats to let you skip past the psi barriers to fulfill your autistic need to not have any structure?
Is Shadows Addon 0.8.9 buildo themed?
>>475786396The normal/bump maps on all the SOC and non-unique CS faces always looked weird. I can't tell what they were supposed to be conveying.
>>475805729Shadow's Addon adds cut elements back into SoC. It's not exactly buildo, it takes inspiration from later builds than the ones OLR is based on.
>>475786517>>475791876What if you break off a chunk of the Monolith, crush it up and snort it?
>>475813147you will be executed by Charon
>>475813147You escape the matrix.
>>475813147You become the Shadow of Chernobyl
>>475813147You hear the Call of Pripyat
>>475813147You will find that which Oblivion Lost
am i the only one who seethes about how you can't actually enter every building and room in every lab and every map?I want to know what the actual full floorplan of places like Agroprom are. I wanna know where the collapsed roads in Zaton go to. I wanna know where the train tunnel in Warehouses lead to.
>>475820468It does irk me as well. I think every building in Dead City was 100% explorable in early buildo.
>>475813824>>475813991>>475814063>>475815029>>475819775But I won't be able to Clear the Sky?
>>475822141Don't worry, it will allow us to Escape this Garbage life and we will rise like Jupiter.
>>475796594Could someone have picked it up? Do stalkers spawn in Rostok? I can't find it anywhere. It's not in the tunnels either.
>>475826938So I was reading about the mission in SoC where you have to find a weapon for that drunk Duty guy in the Bar and came across this:>The reason why the item marker points to the middle of the Bandit base in Dark Valley is because that's the last place where the weapon was before it was picked up by an NPC, which causes the engine to stop tracking it.So it sounds like an NPC picked up your weapon and is now roaming the buildo Zone with it.
monolith
>>475808274>conveyingits a bump map
>>475826938It's most probably underground, you are standing above the tunnel system of Rostok
Is that gigantic underground map in OLR 3.0 a single connection of all underground tunnels of all maps or did hi_flyer made that monstrosity for just one map?
>>475856670it's one huge map that connects to all above ground levels
>>475803785Nigga fuck you, you haven't seen the things I've seen

>>475856670>>475876952you really have to go into demo_record to appreciate the scale of the placeit's got layers
>>475840997No shit retard. These maps are normally supposed to give a 3d depth look to flat textures that follow the texture. These ones look like just random shit.
If OLR is crashing with >any vertex in patrol pathEspecially on army warehousesGo onto a different map and medkit + vodka yourself to sleep a few timesThis will eventually unfuck the spawns
>>475878524no shit retardthanks for trying to explain what we already know
>>475875007>was it good?no idea, never played it.but its free on steam last I checked
>>474819279I played through it first time with ABR and really liked it. Actually playable unlike SRP but it doesn't save the story from being shit.
>>475880530abr has srp in ityou sure you meant SRP
>>475880764SRP was more task manager than game when I went through it for my first try of CSIf ABR is built off of srp then i kneel
>>475881907I only wrote that becuase srp is primarily a community bugfix modyou might just mean the whole faction war stuff was like task manager, i get that.but yes abr has srp in it. thought abr did some other things from their mod
>>475879687Then why the fuck are you questioning my post?
>>475882883In my experience srp got you through 20-30 min before a crash. During my orignal go it crashed whenever I tried leaving dark valley after joining freedom. Faction wars (with a side you picked losing in the background) helped me lose interestabr with me fixed that. Might not be the purest way of playing through cs but atleast gives you a good first experience you know?
>>475885414why aren't you questioning your post?thats the real question
>>475886170I try not to give too much shit to people who enjoy mods, no matter how different they are.I've played some fucked up jank shit mods over the years and I enjoyed them, even thought I would not recommend them to anoyone to play.mostly becuase they were buggy/crashy and your typical play doesnt want to waste their time with all that shit. so if you enjoyed it, then good, more power to ya.
The scripting broke on the "kill big dick bloodcyka" questThen it completed itself lmao>>475880473>but its free on steam last I checkedIt shut down in 2022
>>475888518>It shut down in 2022well shitso just he assets
>>475888518>>475888976Sounds like a bunch of free assets for STALKER mods now, iffin ya ask me.
>>475895404some models from suvarium were already ported to stalkerdesu some of them are really not great. the textures are ok, and they more weirdly colored ones can be touched up, but the models are kinda bad.still some of thme were ported
Found a random freedumber in the rat catacombsYou can tell he's having as much fun as I am (zero)
On the bright side I now have a PKMLet's see those bloodcykas tank hits now
OH BOY CLEARING BOXES IN DARK LAB MY FAVORITEThis quest alone killed OLR 2.5 and it killed OLR 3.0hi_flyer never learns
>>475901075you can in fact shoot your way inside the bunkerbut then this guy is invincible
hello brotherwhy have you come
>>475861207So it is a connection between all levels, that's not a bad idea, assuming that the tunnels aren't full of pseudogiants and other high tier mutants all the time to make it so that you can't reliably use them for a travel network between maps.
hello? hello
>>475913526they're full of rats (small and big) that give you anthrax if they bite youbut it's also full of artifactsbut it's so damn huge it's easier to travel over the land 100% of the time
>>475901075>This quest alone killed OLR 2.5 and it killed OLR 3.0how?
Warwick Davis fighting a Blyat Suka
>>475927962It's unbelievably shit and tedious also darklab breaks your headlamp in 2.5 LOL! Hope you brought a spare! Sucker!hi_flyer is a (vodka) nigger bastard
In this wonderful place I found (and killed)>6 or 7 bloodsuckers>1 controller>1 chimera>2 izloms>2 or 3 zombiesCan hi_flyer count? Does he know how many shots each bloodsucker takes?
OLR 3.0 bloodcyka can be killed in 2 perfect SVD headshots, unless it was already injured. SVU deals less damage than the SVD. Also good luck hitting their heads when they never hold still and you can only see their eyeballs and dust under their feet.
Also there are friendly dogs in here for some reason. I guess they're mourning their controller owner.
>>475932705I must be autistic because playing with the gravitional artifact/hand was always fun and relaxing contrary to what OLR usually throws at you
>>475935971>go to bloodsucker village>have to fight bloodsuckers:O
>>475937545This village is usually bad news in any mod, but come the fuck on.
And I found the 3 missing stalkers plus one dead monolith dude and the quest broke. 1 exosuit guy, 1 science suit guy, 1 sniper. That makes 3. But it doesn't count lol. Better luck next time.Can't wait for the entire village to respawn.
>>475874834I remember being interested in it after the original S2 got canned and everyone involved decided to call out having worked on stalker whether they had (4A, Vostok games) or not (the team behind Tejas Stalker's personally endorsed and never released asset flip Areal). It being multiplayer kind of turned me off, but I meant to give it a try. Then it shut down.What even was it? Was it an extraction shooter before those were popular?

Are these maps going to be fully open and connected?
>>476289590according to pre-release stuff + people who have played the leaked builds, yeah it's one big map instead of separate levels
>>476290468My body is ready
There's no way they're making the september release date by the way
>>476304020As long as it turns out OK, I don't mind. Let's be real, given how long we've waited already, a few more weeks/months won't be noticeable.
freeplay mod built on true stalker maps when?
>>474889810HL2 looks different than I remember
>>476311184Yeah why don't more build maps ever make it into any big mod?
