What mods do you use for STALKER? I can't go back to vanilla after playing this.
I install the sloppiest untranslated soup I can find and see if I can get out of cordon
Anomaly
>>743351129>P220>SIG SG 550Strelok is a SIGfag?
>>743351107Actually based
>>743350976anything that increases immersion, particularly weather and sound. i tried more guns mods but i always just end using an as val and a makarov
>>743350976GAMMA
>>743351107I really must kneel
>>743352850Older SIGs aren't the unreliable pieces of shit we have are today so its not surprising he'd use one
>>743351107This is how you recognise a true oldhead.
>>743350976I've never installed a single Stalker mod and I love the series and have replayed it several times.
>>743354702You're like those redditors that play vanilla skyrim for a decade and a half
>>743353226This
>>743350976STALKER COMPLETE…
>>743352850>iconic rifle is a sig 550yes Strelok is a sigger
>>743354702I play mods to fill the void, but I came to a conclusion that in the end, vanilla is the best.
AMK 1.4.1 is THE definitive STALKER experience. >>743354702Extremely based.>>743354797If the vanilla game is not good on its own, the game is shit. Simple as that.
>>743350976RTTN, turn off all the excess misery shite
>>743359013The vanilla game is good on its own, but you're genuinely mental if you choose to play vanilla for a decade.
>>743350976I recently tried Gamma and it's impressive how they made it look graphically, but there is way too much tedium bullshit. Give me a freeplay mod that looks like it but cuts the bloat out.What's the closest to that?
>>743361887You can customise gamma and which mods are active. You can also change things like weapons and armour not needing to be repaired and a lot of the other things in the game mcm menu.
>>743351107
>>743350976previously i liked to play mods that had their own campaigns and settings, like valley of whispers.now i played Project Silverfish and i dont really feel like playing stalker anymore, i just wait for that game to update>>743351107absolute chad
i like to play EFT and GAMMA but both are impossible to play properly lately they just crash doing anything even opening the fucking PDA
>>743362364I've tried disabling the things I don't want in MO2, but that predictably resulted in crashes.>like weapons and armour not needing to be repairedThat would be a good start. I'm looking through the mcm menu and I'm not seeing an obvious option that reduces or disables this. I'm seeing options to make repair kits more common in stashes, but that's about it.Ideally I'd get rid of a ton of these redundant items.
>>743366972Adjust settings in the mcm menu in game. Not sure which ones you need to adjust but you can make weapons and armor not need repairing as well as being able to buy them from vendors and pay to have them repaired and adjust the cost of how much to repair them.
>>743354702and that's a good thingWhat's your favourite game? Do you like 2?
>>743367336See the mod config part of this vidhttps://youtu.be/wmWJirf1BCA?is=fx_CquClOQjYRshy
>>743351129Is there a way to disable the retarded pseudoanimations that are seemingly only there to waste your time? I mean the camera slightly tilting while some rummaging sfx plays while you're locked in place like a dumbass when doing literally ANYTHING
>>743359013OGSE/R is better
I always use based Stalker Complete.
>>743361887IWPthough it looks much worseexcept the gunsthe guns are sexy as fuck
>>743350976The mod that fixes the accuracy of weapons so bullets can go where you're actually aiming.>inb4 muh rpg progression systemThis is why Putin invaded you.
i like OWR and just need something to fix the shitty grass draw distance
>>743367689>>743367336thanks
I use bug fixing mods and that's it. Anything else is supremely gay.
>>743350976IWP with COTZ questsI just roam around doing stuff on my own and "finish" the playthrough by nuking myself into the wish granterI wanted to try GAMMA but it runs like putrid dogshit and doesn't look like the stalker
>>743350976Don't worry. You'll come back to vanilla one dayAnd then back to modsAnd back to vanillaMods againVanillaModsVanillaModsFor all of stalkan eternityIt's a lot of funAnyway, try Goldsphere or F.O.T.O.G.R.A.F. for something new and really, really unique>>743351107You sir, are a man of culture
>>743363485>now i played Project Silverfish and i dont really feel like playing stalker anymore, i just wait for that game to updateHow's the new patch?
>>743361887Gamma isnt tedious if you play it on iron mode. Talk to me when you spend over an hour fighting for your save and miraculous managing to find your way back to a bonfire with your stalker friends where every joke they tell makes you laugh your heart out cuz you genuinely happy to just be alive
What mods are good for quality of life and improved graphics (like better lighting or extended effects that keep the vanilla mood), also are there good weapon overhauls? Like improved animations for existing weapons and better "feeling" gunplay? This is for a first play through, i dont mind jank per se, but i dont like tedium for its sake.
>>743368302idk about vanilla anomaly but right square bracket keybind toggles food/drink animations on my modded setup.the purpose of the inventory animations is to add risk to looting since someone could shoot/eat you in the meantime but I get why you might not like thatthere is almost certainly a way to turn it all off
>>743379346stolen from /vg/
Talk about Gunslinger, how do I get the most out of one playthrough? Most weapons are so unique that I want to use them all, but weapon upgrades are really expensive.
>>743354702Tejas_Stalker is that you?
>>743379719it's unreadably blurry
>>743359013>AMKFuck off with your boomer rubbish, Radiophobia 3 is the definitive SoC experience.
>>743379719this is as outdated as your moms vagina
>>743382261>Radiophobia 3miss me with that dogwaterOGSE is the definitive SoC GOAT
>>743350976The one that has the anatomically correct LMG reload animation.
>>743351107das it mane
>>743382516OGSR is bloatslop. Played like 50 hours of it before finally dropping that trash.
Lads, is Ray of Hope worth waiting for?
>>743368302Theres literally a keybind to turn them off
>>743383262It's been WIP for almost a fucking decade dude
>>743383262>Ray of CopeLiterally never-ever.
>>743383065OGSE you BLIND NIGGER!!!
>>743381093Is that the guy that followed packs of fleshes for weeks in game like some kind of slav Jan Goodall?
>>743350976>modsmods ruin games and make game devs more lazy
>>743383808Devs are going to be lazy regardless.
>>743379584No I mean when you disassemble or craft or repair something, there is literally no animations aside from the camera tilting and the sound playing. It's just there to waste your tame and piss you off because it closes the menu
>>743378283havent tried it yet. im excited to check out 5.7 because i always wanted that caliber
>>743351129>Last Anomaly update was years ago>some guy is still making fancy upgraded exes for it to this day
>>743383734sounds like the guythere was a thread on the GSC forums where he "lived" in Cordon for several months or something and documented everything that happened, completely unmodded iirc
>playing Anomaly instead of Abobaly>>743361887>Give me a freeplay mod that looks like it but cuts the bloat out.>What's the closest to that?Does not look close to it, but IWP is fun and has Warfare, LttZ and CotZ ports
>>743350976Vanilla or very close to it for soc and cop OR gamma if I'm in the mood for modded
>boot up gamma>start new game as loners in great swamp>see how fast I can go from zero to expert tools and make it past radar>quit as soon as I do>every time
I'm in on my biannual stint if playing the stalker trilogy, this time I'm trying out some overhaul mods. I finished Radiophobia 3 recently and it was pretty solid. The goldsphere questline was a bit bullshit with how you have to go out of bounds to find some of the objectives, but overall it was neat.I tried LFO for clear sky and the graphics are godawful, everything is so dark and hard to see despite the sun casting hundreds of godrays and blinding me when it enters for fov. I tried to tinker with the settings but I couldn't get it to a point where visibility wasn't atrocious. So I deleted that and downloaded the 2022 version of LFO off of the c-con spreadsheet and the game actually looks like stalker again so I'll see how that plays.Does CoP have any fun overhaul mods to try when I get to it? I feel like there's not as much as SoC, likely because CoP released in a pretty good state(not that SoC is THAT rough in vanilla).
>retarded healing system>braindead quests>busywork, inventory management, craftingGAMMA and Anomaly are fucking gayI played through the original trilogy multiple times and never have I thought>oh yeah the hobo phase lasting 20+ hours would absolutely make these games a better experience!OG Trilogy + Gunslinger + Weather&/Atmosphere mods are PEAK STALKERGAYMMA and GAYNOMALY may have some redeeming features but you need to dig through tons of garbage to have a minuscular amount of fun, they're just not worth wasting time on
>>743388724>I finished Radiophobia 3 recently and it was pretty solidI tried playing it a couple years back and the original release had mixed russian and ukrainan VOs, with characters having multiple voice actors. put me off the mod entirely. that, and the performance was garbage on a 3080, it looked like a UE5 asset flip with too much color correction
>almost 2 years since release>STALKER 2 is still dogshitglad I never paid for it. It's astonishing how much ShoC & CoP + mods shit on S2.
>>743353601You can thank (((Cohen))) for that.
>>743389606Stalker 2 shills are just locked down on a permanent suicide watch.
>>743350976>laser device that does not fit the timeframe Fucking cringe
