I'm trying out winter mods for SoC and in every one of them the snow on the ground is way too shiny. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I tried editing the weather files to lower sun values but it didn't help.
>>494961057jesus fucking christ anon my eyes
>>494961057fiddle with theser2_sun_lumscale 1.r2_sun_lumscale_amb 1.r2_sun_lumscale_hemi 1.also you can just adjust the snow texture and bump for the texture.what snow mod is this?
>>494961176Yeah, it's bad. The textures look decent in shadow but in any sort of light they shine like crazy.>>494961563Thanks, I'll try fiddling with those settings.The first pic is from one of the winter mods for SoC on ModDB. I think it's from the old winter mod uploaded by PsyWarVeteran. The textures in this pic are from STALKER Winter Edition 3.0. I just extracted the textures and put them into SoC.
I hate replacement in familiar things, such as textures, sounds, models, maps, lighting, weather, weapons, UI, etc.Can modmakers just only increase detailing and add features, not replace any default thing?
>>494961992>I just extracted the textures and put them into SoC.did you add entries in your textures.ltx file?that may be why they look so fucked
>>494962213Here's my schizo flowOnly 3 types of food IS REALISTICThe stars just so aligned that all the characters player met had only the same canned goods found in an abandoned warehouse, and all of them were provided with bread by produced somewhere in the zone. Yes, this is absolute logical and real. But in any case, you need to add at least one type of water.Vanilla weapon texture is absolutely real. The stars were so aligned that these types of weapons with such non-standard painting ended up in the zone. And it's real world. Metal part of AKs are really pale gray, not deep black. This is just powder paint applied to a primer, there is no reason to do serial painting.Absolutely all maps in the trilogy are real, the noosphere teleported and created them this way, there is no need to change the map towards realism. And maps in trilogy is only territory in zone, It is impossible to get to all other places in the zone, no need to add new fictional ones, truck cemetery and meadows in coc do not make any sense, soothe your thirst for adding another map. Same with factions. Same with weapons. Same with armor. Etc etc.
>>494964281I included the textures.ltx file from the mod. I also tried messing with the lumscale settings AND the r2_ls_bloom settings but nothing changed.
>>494965461Im hate generic rEaL guns in mods, such as default black ak74m and default wood ak74, with that fucking fresh rich black painting on metalAk74 in stalk should be only like in vanilla!!!
Oh my fucking God. Guys, disregard everything I just said. The textures are fine, the only problem here is that I'm fucking retarded.I had static lighting turned on this whole time, that's why the textures look so fucked. I switched to full dynamic lighting and it fixed everything. Excuse me while I bang my head against the wall.

>>494999661I miss those games.
>>494957463Replaying the trilogy before S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 so I'm refreshed on the lore/characters and I don't just want to watch a youtube creature give me the five minute refresh (anomalous dugout is still cool tho) Finished SoC. Pure vanilla playthrough, no mods, no ZRP, master difficulty. Went with the canon ending. Finished Clear Sky. SRP with Improved Weapon Ballistics. Randomized pre-filled stashes so I have an incentive to hunt around the zone for items I need. Master difficulty.Starting Call of Pripyat. After some deliberation I have decided to do the Misery mod, because I had already done two games on master difficulty and wanted a different experience for the third game, particularly an experience that will fuck my shit up. Also I figure Misery will slow me down enough to where completion of the trilogy will be closer to the release date of Stalker 2, but I've never played Misery, so I don't know what to expect. Thoughts on replaying these games for the first time in over a decade: SoC is great, I didn't want to mod it too much so I could experience the original as close as possible, and it doesn't really need mods to hold up. Clear Sky is fantastic right up until Limansk when it becomes Call of Duty: Chort. Taking out a helicopter with a fucking rifle was stupid. A definite step down from how great Clear Sky is in the first three quarters. Particularly liked figuring out faction wars, and finding ways to traverse garbage without getting robbed. A lot more random shit seems to occur in Clear Sky, which is whiplash when the last part of the game starts. Joined Freedom because it seemed more challenging for faction wars. Duty fucking stomps everyone without you needing to do much it seems.

>>495004152Dude what the fuck are these paranormal black bars?
>>495004152>super shiny fur(like ply or other wig material), in sections>very human mannerismvery clearly fake
>>495004239Not an expert but I'm assuming that the black bars represent the frame of the original unstabilized video that everyone and their dog saw/posted while the rest of the frame is probably the original/restored film
>>495004549>Academy Award–winning monster-maker John Chambers is most famous for his innovative flexible masks in Planet of the Apes (1968). In a 1997 interview [...], he denied rumors that he had created a costume for the Patterson subject, saying "I'm good, but not that good." [...] He concluded that if the creature is a man in a suit, then it is no ordinary gorilla suit. It is not something they bought or rented in a store; it would have to be something tailor made. He also felt like it might have been made out of real animal fur.>After viewing the Patterson–Gimlin film [...], costume designer and ape-suit mime Janos Prohaska (noted for his work in the late-1960s television programs Star Trek and Lost in Space) concluded the film's subject looked real to him. When asked if he thought the film was faked, Prohaska replied, "I don't think so ... to me it looks very, very real." If the film was hoaxed, Prohaska thought, it was remarkably realistic and sophisticated, and the best costume he had ever seen, and the only plausible explanation was that someone might have glued false hair "directly to the actor's skin".
>>495005725Didn't the guy who recorded the footage come out and say it was fake or am I thinking of something else

>>495001632I've heard that the early versions of Misery for CoP are actually good. Can anyone confirm this?
>>495001632>>495009167Just finished the install of Misery 2.2, and what a shitshow. Having never messed with any of the Misery mods, I can't believe they released this. Crashes repeatedly on new game about ten feet from the starting area, and information regarding it considers this normal. Uninstall. Played with getting 2.1 and Gunslinger working instead, but that is a no-go on linux it seems. One day I'll try it on this computer, but I am doing the original trilogy on a linux laptop, and the Misery+Gunslinger repack does not want to render on the screen, so it looks like I'll try original Misery, and failing that, vanilla. I'll let you know how early Misery is. >>495006783Kill yourself
>>494959851Yeah but that's not what the screenshot guy was complaining about.
>>495014239If I remember correctly anon recommended Misery 1.2 for CoP.
is there a mod for SoC that randomizes stash contents? or has that not yet been done?
>>495015532Xiani's Freeplay has that feature. There's a file called random_treasure something where the randomize code is included.
>>495015532Try spending a month in Cordon, greenhorn. Then you'll start seeing all kinds of randomness.
>>495015701hmmm, fetch quest simulator only or does it have SoC story on top? i don't know how sandbox mods work, never touched anomaly and the likes of it.>>495015718>cordonyou're the real greenhorn, try the wild territory. and if you really have the guts, do it in goldsphere
Any veteran stalkers playing/played OLR3? I have a few questions:1. How do you find out what artifacts are what? Yantar scientist base?2. How do you get into the Bar? I made it there but cant get past the guard and the locked door.
>>495016242Xiani's Freeplay is the oldest pure freeplay mod and it shows. The random stash feature could probably be ported over to another mod.Fun fact: CoC uses smart_terrains in the power plant level which are from Xiani's Freeplay.
>>495017008>1. How do you find out what artifacts are what? Yantar scientist base?The FAQ on Ap-pro says to ask the scientists at the Bar.As for getting inside the Bar, as far as I understand, it says you should get access inside later in the story, after getting docs from both Medpribor and the Dark Valley.
>>495001632>After some deliberation I have decided to do the Misery modRevert that shit decision right now. Play vanilla and never touch Misery garbage ever again.
The winter textures are looking cool.
anyone who knows ltx files?im playing SOCGA and the forced crouch when picking up items is pissing me off. any way to turn it off?
I tried out a different ground texture but for some reason the road looks blurred from far away. This seems to be a problem with the level file, not the texture itself.
>>494957463Any good mods taking place on either new or build maps? Save for soups and Jekan's stuff.
Major Degtyarev is my favorite S.T.A.L.K.E.R. protagonist.Is it just me or is he way more intriguing than the other protagonists? He's such a badass.

>>495033148Yes. I took footstep audio files from another winter mod on ModDB. They were in stereo so I mixed them down to mono. For some reason they didn't have any metadata so I fixed that as well.Some of the textures seem a bit wonky.

>>495058630was it good though? I never got one, but did have the opportunity.
>>495058342No, reddit posts are not related. It's not GSC making an announcement or anything related to the game. It's redditors saying stupid shit. Play the fucking game and post screenshots of your own playthrough or something. How did it become controversial to want 4chan to be 4chan discussions and not screenshots of social media and reddit?

>>495059453when did it become controversial to laugh and mock retarded fucking redditors?
>>495059453guess what bud, discussing this stupid shit is a discussion on 4chan that bears merit, therefore it is a 4chan discussion. How's your first playthrough of GAMMA going? The first hour of SoC proved too hard for ya, huh?

>>495006317You are mistaking this with something else.>The filmmakers were Roger Patterson (1933–1972) and Robert "Bob" Gimlin (born 1931).>Patterson died of cancer in 1972 and "maintained right to the end that the creature on the film was real". Patterson's friend, Gimlin, has always denied being involved in any part of a hoax with Patterson.It is also noteworthy that apparently most of the people that knew the two filmmakers essentially said that they were kind of too stupid to fake something like this so elaborately.>Peter Byrne, who interviewed Patterson and Gimlin many times, wrote, "both men lacked, primarily, the intellectual capacity essential to the production of a hoax ... termed a masterpiece." Similarly, Daegling writes that "Most acquaintances of Patterson volunteered that neither he nor Gimlin were clever enough to put something that detailed together."

His downloader for GAMMA even pulls mods directly from the moddb pages he incorporated into his overhaul. The only reason he uses github is because moddb wouldn't take him.

>>495097424I want to know how to change the starting location for future mod purposes. Both Borland's Story and Save and Protect: Killer do it. They are both pretty short and simple mods so I assume it can't be that hard.I can get the coordinates using Dez0's waypoint tool but I have no idea which file to edit. I thought it could be changed in actor.ltx or bind_stalker.script but I can't find the option in those files.

>>495164631It could be included next to the other AMK download.What does it do differently from the AMK version in the OP?
In the mod Save and Protect: Killer you need to have ammo on your belt instead of just in the inventory. Anyone know how to turn this feature off?
>>495169418No casuals.
>>495169669I've already played through like half of the mod with the feature, anon. Ammo on the belt is annoying. It doesn't really do anything for gameplay, you just spend more time moving things around in your inventory.
anyone finish this task in radiophobia? i cant find the damn pda
>>495165963The merge in the OP has the autumn aurora 2 textures in it. Repo has the absolute textures and structures so it looks more colorful/vanilla-esqe. The ui in the merge is also the aa2 ui and the inventory menu is different as well. Repo's ui is completely vanilla. The merge has OWR + Arsenal where I believe Repo is just Arsenal. There is no feature list for the merge unlike the repo edition has so it isn't to easy to compare the two but those are the obvious ones off the top.
>>495174769Sounds to me like the repo edition should go up, especially since it originates from /sg/.

Let's drink to him once more, he was a good stalker
>>495169418I know that to make vanilla SoC use ammo on belt you need to open gamedata\config\weapons\weapons.ltx, find section "ammo_base" and uncomment the "belt = true" line. So, in your in your case, you need to comment it back out, or set to "false" maybe. Though, I'm not sure whether it will make weapons start using ammo from inventory directly.If it doesn't, try also adding "g_ammunition_on_belt off" to user.ltx.

I've tried adjusting both sun_near_border and sun_near settings but it doesn't change this at all. Any ideas what else could be making shadows do this? I am using screen space shaders if that helps narrow it down
>>495208085s.t.a.l.k.e.r. ?????
>>495208889if thats all you changed, try more, like near, far, borderhttps://tweakguides.dmegaming.com/ClearSky_8.htmlyou can also try r2_sun_tsm off
>>495208889could be whatever meme shader mod you are using too
>>495209184Thanks, I'll mess around with these and see if it fixes it.
>>495210203could just be an effect from the lighting,grass, grass shadows tootry fiddling with ssao too if its really bugs you
>>495208085How come I haven't seen that one yet, it's been like 2 years
>>495197764You were right about weapons.ltx but for some weird reason it only worked to a certain extent. Ammo can't be selected for the belt anymore but the game doesn't recognize it in my inventory. The ammo on belt thing might be scripted. In pic rel I have 90 rounds of ammo in my inventory but the game only recognizes the ammo already loaded in the gun.Adding "g_ammunition_on_belt off" to user.ltx didn't work either, the game reverted the change when I quit the game.
>>495222391How did the swamp thing end up looking like in OLR 3.0?
>>495100465Russians don't make things, they steal thingsAnd Ukrainians just copy their work.That's why STALKER 2 will be a disaster with NFTs and paid skins.
Good night, /sg/.
>>495216152simple way to change this is to open gamedata\scripts\ammo_ctrl.scriptand change every ammo section in the local ammo_types table at the top to say false instead of true.this will only work on new ammo picked up, so starting a new game might be worth ityou can do the same thing with \scripts\grenade_ctrl.script for the grenades.

Hi /sg/Got this from a good friend of mine for my birthday I think it looks pretty decent if you ignore the fact that it's flipped
>>495258001flipped you say?this is the official wallpaper for clear sky taht comes with your gog copy of the game.is that hand painted? cool

>>495262415>>495262631Thanks anon I've seen this image a lot in both configurations so it's hard to tell what's the original. Also it's a print, not painted
>>495025426Spatial Anomaly comes to mind. Dunno if Jekan had a hand in that. It got merged with Gunslinger if that's your thing.
Did OP2.2 ever get a finished translation?
>>495025426spatial anomaly, valley of whispers, spectrum project
>>495268965>its a printstill cool. Your friend seems nice
>>495276239>valley of whispers>spectrum projectisnt that the same shit?
>>495276939no, they are two different mods. spectrum project is also known as path in the mist, maybe that's what you mean. it takes places in various locations, both new and heavily altered original ones. valley of whispers takes place in just one location, the one that's full of cracks in the ground.
>>495278459>maybe that's what you meanyeah thats it. Thanks for clearing that up for me, Im half awake
>>495246302buildofags aren't this retarded... right?
>>495276239Played them already. Spatial Anomaly is the best of them (and one of the greatest mods ever), haven't finished Whispers but I intend to play it again some day.
I would never sit by the fire with a bunch of bloodsuckers. That would simply be too scary.
fucking SOC started crashing every 20 mins in yantar... just freezes so I have to manually end the process so the log file shows nothingFUCKING KILL ME
>>495259680is the poltergeist playing fucking air guitar?
>>495293313well forget the 20 minutes it just crashed after 5 after entering the lab x16 outside area
>>495293313>>495293889does this happen only in soc? check other games, maybe it's hardware issue.
>>495293997hasn't happened in cotz and true stalker
>>495086548Hell yeah, what mod? Loved this location in Legend Returns. I think it was in Lost Alpha, too, but I played that ages ago and don't fully remember.
>>495087551I just got this feeling man... This is gonna be a Zone Boy Winter.
>>495293313The Metacognix website mentions that crashes in Yantar in SoC can be common. Are you playing with ZRP?
>>495294370OLR also has the factory
>>495295653Yeah I've got zrp. I decided to just rush through the outside straight into the lab. No more crashes since I cleared the lab and got the fuck out of Yantar
>>495301376That's good. SoC is a great game but unfortunately also a buggy mess at times.
>>495271610nope, the chessplayer and few more questlines are still in russian

>>495308140Modern consoles couldn't handle it,
>>495262415You are now reminded of how Oblivion Lost 2010 took this, photoshopped the sky to be a darker orange tint (very badly done), and used it as a menu screen.
bros??
>>495295653Since when? I've never had that issue with vanilla, 1.0005 or 1.0006

>>495318627
>>495319672>>495318627Here's a more detailed answer from the article. The "increase by 80%" is referring to the Ukrainian regional price specifically, which was one of the lowest on Steam, I believe.
>>495320565

>>495306130>btw hi_flyer fucked up and mixed its name with phantasmFucking lol. That is especially comical when he changed the mod to vasyan bullshit.
>>495322498Yes, steam did this. They did it ages ago. There was an uproar because retarded faggots could no longer use a VPN to pretend to be in lebanon or some other thirdie shithole to buy a game for pennies.
Why is it that all anomaly packs with limbs damage addon always use a translucent black and white silhouette? What's the fucking problem with using a nostalgic blue vanilla SoC silhouette? Fuck, what scum they are, what’s the problem with stopping lying to yourself and cutting out radiation and anomalies from the game altogether? "YES, I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT STALKER, IM JUST WANT TARKOV WITH XRAY AI".

>>495334272Subhuman roach behavior
>>495339289do explain
>>495009167Really late reply, but I'd say Misery 1.2 is genuinely an alright mod (although you might want to install Absolute Nature on top to make it less horribly brown).It doesn't have any of the ridiculous inventory bloat or stupid new mechanics of 2.0, it's just regular CoP with a few new guns, much deadlier combat, and just an overall difficulty boost (which is much needed, given how easy base CoP is - the impulse to make the game harsher was correct, but Misery 2,0 just went way too far)
>>495340094is it anymore or less stable than 2.0?
>>495340094Interesting stuff. I've heard other anons say 1.2 is not bad.
>>495340420Way more stable, 2.0 is insanely bad. It still has occasional crashes, but it mostly works fine from what I rememberThere were a few extra fixes in the /sg/ repo (which seems to be all empty folders now? Not sure since when, I haven't checked /sg/ in a while, but both the CoP and CS repos seem to have been wiped. At least the SoC one is still around. I can repost the files I have if needed)
>>495341301I saw that happen with another (now-corpsed) general. What's the deal with emptied repos? Is it some takedown thing, or is it the owner of the repo just deciding to delete everything for some reason?
aw man
>>495341203there's an old playthrough by OCedMyToaster (whatever happened to this guy?), maybe you could get a feel for the early Misery from it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oUGVsG4jLw&list=PLHHbcVbRHpJJuZIsrXOeiKVI5uCfep2pX&index=18And as I mentioned earlier, you can make it look a lot better with a good old Absolute Nature install over it (the safest would be 3 Lite, not sure how well 4 would work, its installer has a special compatibility mode for Misery 2.0, but I dunno if it works for 1.0)
>>495342251>OCedI haven't heard that name in an eternity. In all honesty, he probably died, like Gix did.
>>495342963damn, imagine dying in the middle of a StalkerSoup playthrough. grim
>>495338991Sucker>>495338951Denuvo is the only reason to buy a game due to the effort it takes to crack, the only "catering" you get is shitty performance and an install limit
>>495341301>I can repost the files I have if needed)Yes please. Checked moddb and no sign of it. Conveniently I have abs nature 3.0 lite backed up already. I recently played through cop and was truly bored out of my skull with much of a breeze it was.
>>495336239idc tbhh fammm
>>495344558https://mega.nz/folder/U6B0SKTC#hFL9vjXSLS32FWTRIbuJQAThe main things are "MISERY_1.1.zip" and the "MISERY Patch 2.zip" files. The .jpg is that zombie bug fix I posted above. There's also some extra details in the "Misery mod fixes.txt" file
>>495345810Thank you for posting this, anon.
>>495341643>>495341301MEGA has a thing when they delete all the data in your storage if you don't log in in a long time. The directory structure stays the same, but all the files inside get erased, hence the empty folders. This process is not instantaneous and is quite easy to avoid, they send you a bunch of warning e-mails before that and only if you ignore all of them and stay logged off, they delete everything you've uploaded.
>>495345810Wonderful, thank you anon. and what does the pda beep sound effect have to do with zombies?
>>495345810changing your hud sound volume is a fix for zombies? lolwut

Few things in this world are sweeter than successfully removing a modder's retarded feature.

>>495392127I remember that happening even in 2.0 but I just don't understand or remember how that is the fix for it, but whatever.
good day /sg/
>>495401616Hi stalker >picFeels like that type of day
>>495392127I dunno if you've had this problem with Misery, but I've had it with 2.0 and now even 1.2, where I have to start the exe multiple times in order for the game to launch. Each time I start the exe it creates an instance of "xrengine" in my control panel, up to however many times I start the exe in order for the game to finally launch. Maybe 5 times, 8 times, 10 times, it seems random, and I have to terminate the running exes in control panel every time. I found some reports of this issue but no real solutions or causes. Never had this issue when playing call of pripyat even with some mods installed into it like swr or the absolutes and atmosfear.
>>495406561I think I have had that issue before, but I don't remember if it was Misery specifically or other mods (and if it was even CoP, might have actually been SoC, although it'd be XR_3DA there rather than xrEngine).In my case though, it was never more than once - however, I would always kill the first process right away if it didn't work, and then the next startup would work. I didn't try to launch the game several timesNot sure what could be causing it, but it's definitely annoying, especially if it happens more than once in your case.
>>495313274Yes, you get there from Wild Territory and Dead City. I might have forgotten about a third level transition. I really like how horizontal the map is, the tall building sites where you can get all the way to the roof are really nice, it's always cool to have multiple paths.Don't remember any other new maps besides this one and Dead City, it's been a while that I've played LR.
any way to reduce headbobbing in CoC? i tried editing the values in some .ltx file but that didn't seem to change anything
Stalker Anomaly any good?
no
>>495412535Try cam_inert 0 in console.
I can't wait to see CNPP in Stalker 2 brehs
>>495408231>however, I would always kill the first process right away if it didn't work, and then the next startup would work.I've done it both ways, I don't think it matters if I terminate the process or not, the exe will simply work sometimes randomly, whether there is 10 exes running simultaneously or only one. I can still play it though, it's just annoying and unusual.
>>495413042>cam_inert 0Doesn't do anything, and it was at 0 by default
>>495412636Yeah it is
>>495413463is the new sarcophagus canon in S2? I forgot
>>495415832I honestly have no idea
>>495413463It's gonna be awesome.
>>495412535>>495415637Are you editing effectors.ltx?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B4jUySFGHwThis could be perfect radio music for a stalker mod somewhere.
>>495417217yea thats what i tried the first time
>>495417960Check if cam_inert settings exist in the user.ltx file.
>>495418362it does, and it is 0
>cotz>quest to bring a locked case to a stalker's stash, he joins you as companion>guy dies>locked case weighing 12 kg is now stuck in my inventory and can't drop it
>>495417960It worked for me. https://litter.catbox.moe/lcvig8.webmJust change the "amplitude" values under the [bobbing_effector] section in effectors.ltx to 0 and put the file in gamedata/configs/misc. Maybe change $game_data$ value in fsgame.ltx to "true" as well, if it's set to "false" and that's why your game doesn't register edited files, I don't know.
>>495420930hmm i did add those bobbing effector values to effectors ltx. i actually had to add the section myself since it didn't have it, and strangely enough there doesn't seem to be an fsgame.ltx present in my install.
>>495419913That's rough and also hilarious.Try looking in items.ltx for the case, if it's there you could turn the quest item status off.
>>495419913The case represents the burden on your conscience for letting your companion die, that will haunt you for the rest of your life.
Was Clear Sky really that bad bros? There's a bunch of people that say that it was actually pretty good. my experience was okay I guess..
How can I disable radioactive/biohazard fallout in spatial anomaly? They indirectly cause quest softlock>go to sleep>waking up starts random fallout rain>it also starts helicopter crash quest>I have to wait for the fallout to pass which causes hurt military soldier to die thus softlocking the quest
>>495425078It's been so long since I played it I can't really remember anything about it. The one thing I do remember is that when I encountered the machine gunner in the Cordon I didn't realize you were supposed to crouch under the log to get away. I spent about an hour zig-zagging between trees trying to get to the rookie village. I died so many times but I made it eventually.
>>495425078I had a lot of fun playing. never got where the hate came from
>>495425078It has its moments, but in comparison to the other two games it doesn't reach quite the same level. The focus on faction wars hurts the atmosphere established in SoC, but apart from that the game is not actually that bad.Also, the high amount of bugs CS is usually accused off is greatly overexaggerated.
>>495425078It's better than CoP and just as good as SoC. Shitters that got filtered by grenades need not reply.
>>495425991did this too
I shit me britches mate.
>>495428639>just as good as SoC
>>495428639i just played a CS mod from moddb it was called perfect clear sky or somethingthere was like no nades the whole gamebut i know what you mean. some CS games are terrible with nadeseven laughable and retarded when you get 5 at once at check points.some of CS is just terrible like how the helicopter boss in the hospital doesn't even move. i remember attacking the army base by sidorovich when i used to play CS. i didnt do it this time. is that a mission ? i thought that was SoC. or just for the hell of it. you can destroy the army base. you need to stock up on medkits and bandages if you want to beat CS. i did not have enough at the end and i gave up.>>495434426strekok has gotten away this time m8ie

What do I edit in mutant ltxs to make them take more damage? Do I just lower their health in pic related or do I have to adjust something else?
>>495439547I think those values are only for when they are being simulated in other maps you're not in
>>495439715Ah that makes sense, I guess it's this stuff then?
>>495230927Is this the same for Dead Air? It is possible to modify pistols so don’t they need ammo on the belt but rifles and shotguns do?
>>495440038I'm not entirely sure, but this looks more like the damage the mutant deals to the player.
>>495415832no, it's not. it's inclusion wouldn't make any sense
>>495428639based cs enjoyer
>>495439547>>495440038I would guess you need to edit their immunity parameters, where fire_wound_immunity is responsible for bullet damage. Just remember that to make them take MORE damage you need to increase those numbers, not lower.
>>495441223If chatgpt is correct this does alter the amount of damage they take from things like headshots which is what I'm looking for. I don't want to shoot a flesh in the head with a shotgun and have them just keep charging at me

So what's the qrd on that price increase? Is it only in Ukraine?
>>495454989All regional prices on Steam are changed to match the price on Microsoft store.Will barely affect most western countries, but for countries like Ukraine, that usually have much lower prices, the increase is going to be quite substantial.
>>495442459It would be simpler to edit the fire_wound_immunity stat.

I imported Lost Alpha's flashlight textures into SoC and I think it looks very comfy.
>>495440081I doubt its the same.for dead air I'd try this firstgo into configs\system.ltx and change use_ammo_belt = truetouse_ammo_belt = falsethen restart the game. I doubt a new game would be required, but I've been wrong before.

>>495466996>>495466814You will never be a real stalker. You have no CoC, you can't MO2 nor JSGSME, you have no arties. You are an airsoft fag twisted by consumerism and over-socialization into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back stalkers mock you. Your faction is disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your outlandish behaviour in the zone.Even psychic mutants are utterly repulsed by you. Decades of mutations and forced evolution have allowed them to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even tourists who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a mutant. Your loadout structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk guy go stalking with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected manchild brain.You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear – you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your "faction" will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a headstone marked with your lack of achievements, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a pretender is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably Grokitach.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
>>495442459>If chatgpt is correctchatgpt hallucinates a lot about technical stuff in stalker modding, I guess because there's very few of it well documented. I would not trusth chatgpt with nothing about .ltxs, dxmls and such.

Changing the starting location in SoC is surprisingly easy. Turns out the player is spawned through the all.spawn. At first I thought it was so strange that the player is spawned into the game just like an NPC but in hindsight it makes complete sense for this janky ass engine.
Keep the thread bumped. I must rest.Good night, /sg/.
>>495425078Truth be told I haven't played it since release, but I remember a few parts I absolutely hated like the part where you get robbed and even if you get your equipment back you lost all your money and I remember the ending being really fucking hard. I liked the maps a lot, and it made me like Freedom since SoC never really let you team up with them since you were kind of predisposed to helping Duty since when you entered the area you get that quest to help them wipe out Freedom. I was a stupid teenager at the time and thought that was a linear kind of sequence.Maybe I should give it another go, it has been over ten years.
need a mod like misery because its dead and gamma sux, i like hunting animals for parts and money and finding cool treasure hidden in weird places and unique weapons

>>495497939Anomaly. You can tweak and fit it to your exact specifications! A and then it can be as hard (mosery) as you want it to be! In fact, there's actually a Discord for Anomaly, just for more silly goobers like yourself! Why don't you get on out there, bud? As the regulars around here like to say, "Go back!" :3
>>495498631pt cruiser eh?

>>495466814Just reminded me of when I played stalkerrp on gmod years back, server had a tranny circlejerk area on the forums where the hideous freaks would share pics of eachother nude, I remember one had an op admin geared tranny character who was supposedly an actual female but the zone has blessed them with a dick, that was their explanation.
>>495500913Sounds like a sign of the end of times.
It's funny how lots of journalist-tier nu-males with skill issues disregard S.T.A.L.K.E.R. as "macho" insufferable euro-jank crap.But then lots of trannies are into it, makes you think. AGP is real. The autistcel-tranny pipeline is real. Forty one percenters YWNBAW.
>>495497939Dead Air and its offshootsAREANLC7 maybe
>>495497575>Maybe I should give it another go, it has been over ten yeahell yeah man, go for itits funny coming back to old stuf, and finding out or noticing new things.
>>495503703It's not a tranny thing, it's a modern life thing. Most of us as boys were expecting living in some kind of life that was like Stalker. Isolation in nature, danger, accomplishment via proving yourself against nature and other men. But then modern life doesn't provide any of these lifestyles. Even "masculine" alpha lifestyles are lacking in any true satisfaction of these masculine desires we as boys developed.That's why both trannys and regular disillusioned dudes find the zone alluring. Because your life is so meaningless that bleeding out in the zone seems more meaningful. You would rather spend a week in the zone and end it stepping in a whirligig than continue being adrift in modernity
>>495512924Mein dude, by your definition, then trannies are basically disillusioned dudes with extra steps.

Damn, just found out Cyberpunk 2077 has a mod that mixes up the languages and has tons of characters speaking in all sorts of different languageshttps://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/5909?tab=filesBeen wishing something like this for Stalker since forever, instead of having to choose between everyone speaks Russian and and everyone speaks Ukrainian
>>495541520>everyone speaks Russian and and everyone speaks Ukrainianit's not the case with ukrainian localization - random dutyers, mercs, monolith and soldiers still speak in russian, and bandits speak in surzhyk, which is a mix of both languages. only loners, freedomers, scientists and story characters from the russian-speaking factions speak in actual ukrainian.
>>495541520Max Payne 3 is the only game that did it right.You're in a completely foreign place where people speak a language you (both your character and you, the player) absolutely do not understand. It's what moves the story forward in some places as well

I successfully made an inventory_box with stuff in it in the all.spawn.
>>495466632Yea this works thanks, I’m still trying to figure out if I can make pistols need no belt to still keep the feature around somewhat.
>>495601989reposting because wrong imagehere ya gofunny enough I dont think in cop, or even clear sky... there is a physical .ogf mesh in the database files, but rather its an object is in the level only.you can still change the texture its uses obvisously
>>495602654Thanks, anon.>object is in the level onlyI suspected as much. It's like with the stashes in SoC. They don't actually have a mesh, the meshes are just built into the level.
>>495600863I don't think you can. its either all or nothing.
https://youtu.be/eWtOWUitTWQI wouldn’t do such shit until some modmaker-programmer made, at my request, a dynamic change of gloves (+ watches and rings) through a separate bone in mesh, like the hands separated with weapons in the CS/CoP. Otherwise it’s sisyphus work and textures overbloat.
>>495603880Well thanks for the help regardless anon.
>>495603183heh so even though there is a mesh in the soc files, you can't change the mesh by changing item_box_01_visual.ogfand yeah no problem man
>>495604775yea no problem >>495604738those pistol inspect camera animations look way exagerated
>>495604738In the same way, I won't start doing anything with NPC models until some mod maker implemented procedural facial and emotion animation like in source engine, physics and inertia of body kits such as a backpack and weapon on back, procedurally dynamic color of skeen/hair/eyes/equipment, procedurally dynamic body and face proportions, generally better and more detailed animations, etc. In short, modmakers do not value and respect their work. You need to modify anything that has a competent base in which your work will never be forgotten.
>>495606305Procedural animation to realistically pushing out assholes, who are blocking entrance to the bar and duty base!
>>495604738>I wouldn’t do such shit until some modmaker-programmer made, at my request, a dynamic change of gloves (+ watches and rings) through a separate bone in mesheww wtf is that barbies playhouse stalker edition?

When this month ends, there's still a whole month and then 2/3rds of another month until Stalker 2. Fuck me
Get in the tube It feels good Im going to put you in the tube

>>495551928nigger
>>495631384that yellow and wierd audio is psi-fieldafter you turned off the brain scorcher, the monolith there were neutral, until you killed themI assume you were meant to go somewhere else, since that psi shit was still goign on even when the scorcher was off.
do rare artefacts spawn more often at night in soc?

>>495635895>I think the alife spawned them on top of meNPC squads often change their goals and direction of movement on gameload, maybe in your case mercs, who weren't near you at the time, just decided to go to the Depot instead of the checkpoint and so you never met.Although, I've also had some strange things happening with a-life in CotZ, like how when you're fighting bloodsuckers and they go invisible when you quicksave, when you load they may just completely vanish from the game. NPCs who were fighting them a moment ago immediately calm down as if nothing happened and no matter how long you run around and shoot in every direction, no bloodsucker comes back. Had this happen several times.
>>495637464The strange thing is one of them was behind me at the top of the flea market which the only way to get there would have been walking through me, positioning himself there, crouching and then aiming at me and waiting for his buddy to creep up on me
>>495635850>>495633427I thought that 12 to whatever was just in that tunnel in agroprom underground
>>495635895isnt there supposed to be a no spawn radius aroudn the player setting? its been around since CoCdid IWP get rid of it?
>>495640096No, it's the nature of the artefact, not the nature of the location.
>>495641180there is something about radius in the settings which is why it was strange. i have seen loners get spawned right infront of me in the same spot too but that was seconds after i got there almost like it was lagging
I really hope that quest marker and compass are an afterthought in S2.inb4>no problem if it's optionalIt is a problem if the map and the game itself is designed around quest marker and compass. And it is a problem when lazy game designers think they can get away with shitty and forgettable level design because you're given markers to "help" you navigate the game world = force you to navigate it according to devs assumptions. A 3-D environment should be navigated in 3-D, if devs rely more on compass and quest marker than on environment itself then they flatten the game and then I don't know why they're not just making a 2-game. Exploration has always been a part of Stalker but a fucking quest marker is the antithesis to doing things in your own way and in your own time. I really hope GSC have not forgotten their roots.
>>495642253>2-game*2-D game
>>495635895CotZ A-life is wild, going from Garbage once I walked in on a Monolith squad chilling in the Cordon checkpoint during an emission.
Do mutants make no noise in Radiophobia? These asshole pseudo dogs and fractures keep sneaking up on me.
>>495646896thats real stupid if they dont
>>495642253I agree.What about the map quest markers in the old games? Do you feel the same way about them?
How do I get an SBU wife that holds the rank of Major to Operate in the zone with?
>>495633328Yea the psi-stuff is all over the whole map. Even when you turn the scorcher off That made me confused.I wanted to go back to traders before i went to cnpp but i kept randomly dying (just falling over suddenly) and there were no indicators saying something is wrong with me. Maybe it just kills you if you dont go to pripyat. Also the blue/green color was from nigh vision mixed with flashlight. Also i dont remember my gun being left handed or in the center. The game randomly did that i think. Gun models are nice but some dont work. You need a crosshair. At least for my version.
>>495645790Yea I'll have to get used to it. On the other hand, it seems to be a bit broken at times. I often see groups of loners walking from the bar to Garbage but they never actually appear in Garbage
always funny when the rostok border patrol becomes your companion for a task
But will stalker 2 be good or fun?Will it have all kinds of cool guns?Or will modders have to do that ?Will stalker 2 be mod-able ?Actually its stalker 4It should come with some kind of online.Maybe stalker ray of hope.
>>495661009>Will stalker 2 be mod-able ?It's questionable at best. X-Ray is so easy to mod, man. You can literally do it with just a notepad and the unpacked game files.
>>495661206Yea because this new stalker is unreal engine and i wasnt sure if people mod that. Can an rtx 2070 run stalker 2? And a intel core i9 3.6ghz kaby lake ?Maybe my mind will be blown in stalker 2 with the way monsters behave.
>>495658085I never liked this in the coc, it kills the freeplay simulation potential of mod and turn into soc's linearity This does not allow random enemy squads to pass from the garbage to military/wild territoryhttps://youtu.be/yoUEHAeN7O8
>>495662276you mean the fact theres 10 guards protecting rostok? well maybe now there will be some enemy squads, when i finished the quest all those dudes just fucked off somewhere in garbage and aren't guarding anymore
Is there a SoC mod that retains the base story but includes the cut maps with some quests added in for them?Ideally I'm looking for something like SoC+CS with a more fleshed out SoC story. CS already feels so much like just cut ideas from SoC mashed together into a DLC, I long for something that adds it all together but isn't just a freeplay and doesn't have CoP maps.
>>495661905This is a statement from one of the devs about the current state of mod support for STALKER 2.
>>495666026I think Shadow's Addon is the closest you'll get to that. It's in the OP.
>>495666729Damn yeah I've never read up on that or RMA in general but they sound pretty ideal. Thanks.
>>495666026Stalkersoup
Fucking hell. I keep a lot of winrar archives of STALKER stuff, like mods and unpacked game files, and while sorting through one of them I accidentally hit some keyboard shortcut that absolutely fucked winrar's layout. It was like the entire folder structure had been sorted into one huge list of folders. I re-installed winrar and it fixed the mess. Luckily it was only the visual layout that changed, not the actual file structure. For a minute there I was devastated cause I thought I'd irreparably fucked all my archives.
>>495672442I kept downloading shit and forgetting about it and my download folder amwas like 400gb. Or maybe also recording videos and never deleting them. I noticed my C drive was almost filled. And i didnt know what was taking up a terabyte. Also steam games.
>>495673227>my download folder amwas like 400gbHoly shit lol. I had a similar situation once so now I make sure to delete shit in the download folder or immediately move it elsewhere.
>>495032430>He's such a badass.Absolutely. >An ancient PMm received by Degtyarev as a reward for "Succesful execution of highly dangerous state orders, as well as valor and courage shown in the line of duty."He was a badass before the game even started. BTW I fixed his hairline some time ago.
>>495641180There is, but I don't think it works

Are we supposed to get anything new at TGS this week?
>>495677983Where realism is useful, makes the game easier and does not interfere in any way, we add it. For example, in reality, weapons are much more accurate and more reliability than in vanilla stalker, which means we do real ballistics and reliability. Old cars costs almost nothing and consumes ~5 liters of gasoline per 100 km - we also add an old cars to the game at every step with realistic consumption and price of gasoline. And if realism somehow interferes, complicates the gameplay, forces you to do more useless actions, then its shit and not needed to game at all.
>>495677983> Backpack anim> Headlamp and night vision anim> Consumables anim> Loot of mutants parts and corpses with anim> 3D PDA> Anim of climbing stairsAll of these things are based. Sucks to be you.
>>495675778I gotta be honest anon that sounds like a fucking waste of time.
>>495680371Gamma-fag, please
>>4956779833D PDA is cool the first time you see it and use it but after awhile it's just annoying to have see that animation every time you wanna use the PDA
>>495680371are you immersed yet zoomie?
>>495681021Retards don't realize that 3D, like the format in which it is presented in guns/anomaly, is FUCKING UNREALISTIC. How the hell does this thing, without some kind of super AI sensors, calculate in real time absolutely all your statistics, and looks like game PDA? As soon as you take on some quest THROUGH DIALOGUE. Attention - THROUGH DIALOGUE. It beeps and information and a mark immediately appear. Although it is implied that this is a realistic 3D game object following the physical logic of reality. With 2D PDA you can at least abstract that these are the THOUGHTS of the main player. According to realism, there should be just an Android/Windows Mobile interface with only real functionality. That is, open a notepad yourself and write notes, open Google maps yourself and set geotags. No automatic notifications, statistics, quest data. Encyclopedia of the zone - like a PDF file that somehow got there through a flash drive from stalkers traders.
>the schizo is back at it again
>>495681986>>495681986And Im forgot the most important - 3PDA should be only addition, not replacing 2D one. Used only when you loot PDA from corpses. You yourself find the stalker's notes and notes in real notepad and map applications, you may have to decrypt and hack it to bypass the password, and only after that it will automatically appears in "2D PDA", like the player remember what he read. NLC 7 is great example.
>>495681986Ps2 era is where the realistic argument died out
>>495676680>>495680518It was just a joke
>>495685207That's good, anon.
>>495681986Then, in theory, medkits and bandages should be replaced with healing artifacts. Otherwise, in reality, if you had leg bone crushed by a bullet, you would most likely never be able to run again or die.
I like the 3d pda.

>>495631384wait what, you got zombified lmaohow did you manage that and how is that possible?
Does anyone know how map markers work in SoC? I can't figure it out. Is it "map_location_type" in the task.xml files? That seems to link to other xml files called map_spots_escape or something like that but I can't figure out where to go from there.I'm talking about the quest markers on the map.

Today I learned that Sidorovich is actually staring at you the ENTIRE time you're in the Cordon. Not just when you're in his bunker.I went down to his bunker with demo_record and found him down there with his head grotesquely twisted towards my actual player location. Lurking down there, just waiting for me to trade with him like some kinda fucked up golem.Just think about that next time you're in the Cordon.Where ever you are, Sidorovich knows.And he waits.

>>495735956Editing the game files can be finnicky.
>>495721663>>495721834or maybe it wasnt him.I say that because after that point, he loaded an earlier save, and upon loading in, he go tthe same message.so meaybe it was just because of the psi shit from that area.either way, thats most likely why he kept dying.
>>495718819> That seems to link to other xml files called map_spots_escape or something like that but I can't figure out where to go from there.so what are you trying to do exactly?lots of things are linked to other files, thats how it worksfor example, tasks_garbage.xml has a task "gar_kill_boars"which has<map_location_type hint="gar_kill_boars_1">green_location</map_location_type>this is why I ask what it is you're trying to do because its important.if you want to know what icon is used for the marker itsgreen_location which if you search config files you'll see \config\ui\map_spots.xmlwhich has level map spot and min map spotthe texture for level map spot - "green_spot" is ui_icons_mapPDA_persBig_hsearching for "ui_icons_mapPDA_persBig_h"you'll find it in ui_common.xml which shows the coords<file_name>ui\ui_common</file_name>which is the main texture<texture id="ui_icons_mapPDA_persBig_h" x="525" y="904" width="32" height="32" />> it is selected in the square in this picnotice the coords and icon selection size match the above texture_id
>>495738392perhaps the MM or barrier fucked him up because he approached em before he had the psy helm, that seems to make sense
>>495750824could be that. maybe that guy might be able to go back and finish his playthrough
>>495708178no. no I don't think I will.
will we even have a PDA in s2? why wouldn't it be a smartphone?
>>495759645s-shut up
goldsphere is dope, wish i tried it sooner. very different
>>495759645it's a fucking tablet in s2
>>495750824>>495754875Some mods like OGSR and NS 2016 introduced "zombification" as a mechanic. Too much psi exposure will turn you into one. In OGSR I recall you had to give Sakharov a goldfish artifact in order to get back to normal
>>495712345r/stalker is a reserve for the most oblivious stalker fans on the internet, it's interesting to observe it as long as you're not easily annoyed by the idiocy of some people. >also since when was SoC available on console?since like 6 months
>>495759645Chinese-made smartphones can't handle the zone's radiation. Only a sturdy PDA can get the job done.
>>495759645why would it be a smartphone? the usage of pdas in the 2010s is an established element of the in game universe, so why would it change now. stalker is a sci-fi series with its own vision of the future that was formed by gsc in 2003, don't forget about that.

>>495767697>it's interesting to observe it as long as you're not easily annoyed by the idiocy of some people.It's not for me then
>>495788261>oh my science I wish gayma was just like fortnite or valorant xD
>>495788261I started noticing that there are actual zoomers that retarded on there they think Anomaly is made by the same dudes as that custom modpack they had a drama over recently because of their pro russia devs. I'm starting to think these retards don't even know what Anomaly standalone is
>>495740613Are those vanilla icons or from a mod? If vanilla, that's pointing to an awful lot of cut features that to my knowledge hasn't been cataloged yet.
>>495794689nta but it's vanilla and the icons you probably don't recognize are for multiplayer.
Thinking about my precious boat gun.
>>495789975You can find all sorts of retards there, a lot of them think that Stalker was dead and only because of GAMMA's popularity did GSC decide to make a sequel (disregard the fact it was announced back when Anomaly wasn't a thing, let alone the budget Tarkov modpacks).I once saw a motherfucker thinking Anomaly was the original game made by GSC.
>>495740613>so what are you trying to do exactly?I created a new quest and I'm trying to tie a quest map marker to it. What I can't figure out is how I make it appear in the game. I assumed I have to add level coordinates for it somewhere but I don't think that's right. Is it tied to an in-game object or info portion?
>>495759645>>495765774BRING BACK THE SAMSUNG
Is playing Lost Alpha worth it? Playing OLR right now and I know they're pretty different beasts but overall I've just heard pretty negative things about LA, though I'm intrigued by playing another take on proto-stalker
>>495801178There are a few different versions floating about. The original was ass and had dumb cutscenes. Director's Cut removed some of them and improved some things. DC also got some additional mods/revamps after a while. I'd say play look up the differences between all the DC versions and play one of them. I recall you could upgrade detectors at mechanics.
>>495801178LA DC 1.4007 with LBs Comp is phenomenal jank. Say what you want about LA but it has the best atmosphere out of any STALKER mod I've ever played.
>>495729046Well, it's still not GREAT but I think it's better with my adjustments. I wish I could have made the trails more realistic and long, but whatever. I've wasted enough time on this. If anyone likes this over the default IWP raindrops I can try to upload my visordrops.h somewhere for you to use
>>495809319I'll give it a shot. I like the IWP ones enough, I just wish it took a bit longer for them to reach the max cover
>>495811461https://files.catbox.moe/ihzu12.7zYou'll need to delete your shader cache in IWP > Datafiles for these changes to show up in game
>>495811461>>495812207Oh and I'm sure you already know this but just in case, this goes in your gamedata > shaders > r4 folder
>>495801178Play the original if you want to laugh at awful voice acting and comically bad animations. Play DC if you want an improved version that isn't as shitty. Play DC extended or whatever it's called if you want miseryanomalygamma brainrot to shit up your experience.
>>495712345>>495767697>>495789975it was alright years ago, when it was niche and tejas was still around. later the influx of normie slavaboos began and currently it's filled with tourists and actual zoomers. some posts about lore and cut content written by like one or two guys there are the only thing of value in that cesspit. can't wait to see what it will turn into when stalker 2 releases kek
>>495798859or just use modern ruggerized PDA'sI understand millitary use tablets and shit but that's more like data administration it suits more to scientists and the like but ruggerized pda's are fucking bulk phones you can carry everywhere. That tablet they showed us looks like shit, especially the fucking GUI which is just far slop.
>>495806340the only LA version i like is 0005 because the weapons are still vanilla-y instead of goyslopinatrix.
>>495820573I only recently found out about tejas through his youtube videos and I immediately liked him
>>495820573Tarkovsky's "Stalker" was an homage to Tejas, the Stalker who yearns for being as long as possible in the Zone, his one true love.
I dont mind the PDA being a tablet as it is realistic and doesnt look bad but the fucking UI is absolutely unnaceptable.Put some work on it instead of going bugisoft's path and doing bland cancer. The map is great though.
>>495823678SoC's PDA UI is the best, with the animations, encyclopedia with images, quests, contacts... It is improvable by all means but they downgraded it in every new game by some reason, CS is just boring and CoP is fucking cancer, the dialogue and the inventory is fucking AIDS.For HoC i would just do SoC's PDA with a modernized gui (10 years have passed so it's understandable they try to make it as polished as possible) something like a gentoo linux rice and add details like the little animations in SoC and the physical buttons for the controls instead of controller inputs, God i wish they fix it for the pc version.
>>495824856i was just about to post the soc pda, theres something very nice and gritty about it>>495823678while this looks like normal ubisoft inventory/pause screen, trash
>>495823678I like it, I just hope the animation to open the menu is fast
>>495715729>the sky clearsHoly shit
>>495825475want to really blow your mind?When going to the CNPP in SoC you first have to go through pripyat and answer the call of that group of dutiers
>>495825125>while this looks like normal ubisoft inventory/pause screen, trashI just fucking closed a window with "vetnik tss" vk that had a UI leak of a mission screen of the pda. It looks nice, better than the shit they showed us in the trailers, more soc-like than cs/cop task list trash.For a leak it looks rather great except for 1 fucking thing and that is the xbox gamepad buttons on pc are replaced with keyboard keys instead of buttons you have to press like in soc, genocide incoming.I will search it for you
Am I retarded or is SOCGA like this on purpose?When upgrading outfits, I can only choose one "arm" of the upgrade tree. It locks me out of the other ones.Guns are also linear with upgrades. You have to progress from the first upgrade to the last one. It's not possible to, for example, have a laser sight and a flashlight on a rifle without going through upgrades for tritium sights, larger magazines etc
>>495825125>>495827338Ok i just fucking hate not being able to find a fucking image i had opened just 15 minutes ago god fucking damnit.The most i can give you is some screenshots of the build which look horrendous but i promise the most recent photo of the mission tab with shit in russian saying something about finding the barmen was not that fucking bad i promise it is not bad.Spoiler alert: https://m.vk.com/wall-165011456_124771Holocaust memorial in 3...2...1.....
How will stalker 2 (4) be good without x-ray ?
>>495721663How do you de-zombiefy ?I might of not turned off the yantar machine? I turned off the brain scorcher.
>>495830143It's going to be tremendous
>>495153906actually quite nicei think after my all vanilla walkthrough before s2 i will try to finish this.
>>495820573Good god. That's practically a word for word repost of his old GSC forums discussions, and I bet he hand typed every character of it instead of copypasting. I wonder if anyone archived the old forums. His text and screenshot LP-style retelling of his ridiculous things, like spending multiple in-game days in the back of the truck outside the yantar-wild territory level changer were something else.
>>495824856What do you mean about the CoP UI? Its not THAT bad in my opinion. Is it overly streamlined?
>>495827501Apparently the linear upgrades for guns is due to technical limitations. I hate it too. Not sure what the hell is up with the outfit upgrades though.
>>495824856One thing I will never understand is why GSC cut out the encyclopedia from CS and CoP. I felt that it added a lot to the game.
>>495820573Legitimate question, what do you do in the Cordon for 72 hours?
>>495850895observe the ai. tejas unironically spent hours on watching how dogs, boars, fleshes and other npcs behave.
>>495830585see>>495767656also possibly scientists at yantar might be able to help?
>>495852613Does the AI really get weird or did tejas lose it after 48 hours
>>495852774He's not wrong that NPCs/mutant spawns in SoC change as you progress. I remember returning to Agroprom in the late-game stage and encountering bloodsuckers in the factory complex.
>changing the meat chunk health regen to +1Why do modders do this?
Need help. Playing OLR3 and just got back from garbage with the Toads Eye for Toad but there's no chat option to give it to him and it doesn't appear on the trade screen. Is there a console command I use to trigger toad into accepting the artifact?
>>495828391ngl but these look fucking dogshit
>>495855578>go into gamedata/config/misc>delete artefacts.ltx>boot up the game>meat chunk health regen is still at 1%What the fuck? This doesn't make sense. artefacts.ltx is the only file that controls artefact stats, right?

>>495870948I created it through xml files. It is launched through bind_stalker.script when the player enters a certain map for the first time and receives an info_portion. In my case the map is the swamps, which is also the starting location, so the quest starts on a new game.
>>495865372Derp.I had my custom actor.ltx in the gamedata. All the player immunities are maxed out to make the player invincible, I use it to test shit. Turns out having your immunities maxed out messes with the artifact stats.
>>495874551>Why do modders do this?indeedlmao
>>495876836The mod has a lot of le hardcore gameplay so I assumed he'd nerfed the artifacts.
>>495879159what mod ?
>>495881347It's a mod called Save and Protect: Killer. The mod itself is pretty shit but while playing it I got the idea that it could serve as a good base for another mod, since it's very desolate and has few spawns. So I started making small edits like removing the hardcore combat and restoring the vanilla HUD. From there it snowballed into me building my own mod on top of it.
Final bump for the night.Sweet dreams /sg/.
>>495887021You can survive this by Korean backdashing.

>>495895157yeeeee
Are mutants supposed to be tanky for anyone playing IWP? Even dogs take 3 or 4 buckshots to the face.
>>495917974are they? I've taken them out with a couple 9x18 PM pistol shots.are shotguns just shit somehow
>>495913705I never understood why GSC created the emblems for loners, bandits and renegades in CS. They are not actually worn by them in the game, and it would make no sense for them to be worn anyway, because why would a bandit sew some kind of patch on his jacket. Emblems should be reserved only for the actual factions, like Duty and Freedom, as was the case in SoC.
>>495918194Maybe? Got jumped by boars in Red Forest earlier, and .45 works fine against them, only took 6 shots for each. Meanwhile slug doesn't do shit against them, so even switching to different ammo types change nothing.
>>495919567it seems all weapons use the below as defines in defines.ltxhit_impulse = 10hit_power = 1.00, 1.00, 1.00, 1.00hit_power_critical = 1.00, 1.00, 1.00, 1.00maybe buck needs a slight buff?slugs "should" still hit like a truckbuskshot are k_dist = 0.24does that cut the fire_distance of weapons to 0.24 of the fire_distance value? so if you're using buck it only goes roughly 30 meters?slugs are k_dist = 1
>>495921760I'll test it again later with slugs then. Thanks.
>>495925539a slight bump to ammo_12x70_buckk_hitmight help, either way good luck
>>495864029godspeed anon, shame you already deleted your install and saves. You could have loaded a save before you got zombofied. Or loaded debug god mode to not die until you got fixed up.
>>495918958>why GSC created the emblems for loners, bandits and renegades in CS.To be able to show something in Faction Wars tab in the PDA and in inventory screen. >why would a bandit sew some kind of patch on his jacketTo show his relation to a particular gang? Mind that the Bandits you join in CS are not just a collection of every dishonest person in the Zone, nor some well-organized Zone-wide mafia. You simply join Yoga's gang that operates in Garbage. Why wouldn't members of this gang put skull patches on their clothes? It was always supposed to be so bandits in the game are parts of different bands with little relation to one another. Even in CoP there are Sultan's gang, Jack's gang, Shishak's gang. All of them belonging to a single "Bandit" faction is just a game limitation.The same thing is true for Free Stalkers. The "Loners" faction you join in CS is also simply a small group of stalkers in Cordon under the leadership of Valerian, and not a faction combining all stalkers in the Zone. Orest with his guys from Agroprom or the diggers from the Flea Market have no connection to them apart being assigned to the same "facton" in the game's code.
What in the fuck is this mesh lmao
>>495930982>To be able to show something in Faction Wars tab in the PDAThis is the only sensible reason that I think could have been avoided anyway, but it would require more text and less icons in the PDA UI, so it's understandable why it was introduced. And if it was only used in the PDA, I would get over it, but these emblems are also shown in the character traits window that is visible during conversation/looting, which makes less sense. I know that Yoga's group is just one of many gangs that weren't affiliated, just like Valerian's faction was only a single, seperate group of free stalkers, but these emblems are shown next to the name and rank of each bandit and loner you encounter, no matter where. Even Sidorovich is a member of this "loner faction". And yes, it's just a technical thing, but it could have been easily avoided, by implementing the emblems only in the PDA UI, or just for some of the characters. These emblem caused unnecessary confusion, and now every stalker cosplay must feature the radiation patch, even though it's not a thing in the games.>Mind that the Bandits you join in CS are not just a collection of every dishonest person in the Zone> The "Loners" faction you join in CS is also simply a small group of stalkers in Cordon under the leadership of Valerian, and not a faction combining all stalkers in the Zone.Like I said, I'm aware of that, but many people are not, and I feel like the existence of patches contributes to these misconceptions
>>495934471>And yes, it's just a technical thing, but it could have been easily avoided, by implementing the emblems only in the PDA UI, or just for some of the characters. This I agree with, they could've made separate factions for those who actually take part in the war and random stalkers/bandits. Even have them share the same name, but make the latter have no patches in UI windows, how they did with the Scar's "mercenary" faction and NPC mercs. They did make separate factions for NPCs and the player like "dolg" and "actor_dolg", for reasons I still don't fully understand, so it wouldn't be hard to do the same for this.>I'm aware of that, but many people are notYeah, it's unfortunate how often you can see retards going "haha "loner faction" amirite", not understanding that Valerian doesn't control every stalker inside the Zone.

2. The mod must contain a clear statement indicating that it is a derivative work from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games developed and owned by GSC Game World, while also asserting that it has no direct affiliation with GSC and is fan-made. For example, this statement could be displayed on loading or starting screens: “MOD NAME is a fan-created modification for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, developed and wholly owned by GSC Game World. MOD NAME is not an official product of GSC Game World and is a derivative work based on their S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.”Gammasisters...

>>495954250simple as.
>>495954330Since the game is gonna come out for consoles they'll likely have an "official" mod store for consoles with PC support but won't really bother to lock the game out from third party support.It IS an unreal engine game, meaning you can just drop a .pak file in the content folder. Every other UE game has a mod.io page built in full of trash nobody uses, then a nexusmods or moddb page with much more up to date and higher quality mods available.

>>496033357Not sure if it's lighting or the models themselves but they look so under-armored in HOC. The old models look like they could tank several rifle rounds while the new ones look like airsoft LARPers
>>496036673its your brain, and the shoulders
>>496036673It's the chunkiness of the old character models. Makes the suit look like it has more armor than it actually does. Truth be told they're probably 1:1 in terms of what the armor actually is. It's just on a modern human skeleton model.
Nyah! See?
>>496021402olr is still in beta and it's full of misery-like unbalanced features that aren't fun in any way. vector of alienation is based on olr 2.5, it has somewhat better writing and plenty of addons. olr 2.5 looks better than voa and feels more faithful to buildo in my opinion, but is less polished.

>>495954819>gamma devsThis has to be baitThe retardation of r/stalker and this here steam post is unrealMakes you feel superior just for having a somewhat working brain
>>496056006>you didn't post the one I like
>>496063156the real crime is its illegal to kill retards
>>496063156>>Viper-5 at that distanceIf he had an ak it would be the same situation, and no ones complains about amk fixing this, only anomaly or gamma
>>496062784>Do slant eyes even like stalker?I dunno, I just know GSC supposedly is at the event.
I'm playing New Arsenal 7 and the dead swamp is stunning
>>496076448Don't forget to find the bandits sitting around a fire near some shacks for a good early game weapon. They sometimes get mauled by pseudogs.
>>496076448I'll keep a look out
>>496059867cry little chud>>496062784>hecking tacticool animationswow based>making everyone drop in 2 to 3 bulletswow basedAnomaly/Gamma is a good mod, I agree fully
>>496079108i got it and it was a little worse then my currant gun so i sold it for a full belt of ammo. and your right about the dog the was 2 psydog 3 poudodog and some blind dogs little fuckers almost killed me
After looking into Stalker r*ddit and fb, it is now clear to me why ladders need to be yellow, these guys are fucking dumb
>>495980017All you had to do is admit you're pointlessly aislop upscaling social media posts for no benefit because that's somehow a meme in this anticreativity era.>>496036673The new models are from an alpha build so they don't have everything going on. The old models are lowponly and look goofy, like the cloth/leather/whatever chest rigs's straps are literally six inches thick. The comparison being high quality renders vs real time alpha build don't help.
>>496082327lmfaocatering to retards is a horrible idea.
>>496080247>chudtwitter tranny or underage sharty nigger, call it.
>>496033357Even though the STALKER 2 models look more realistic I gotta say I like the SoC/OL models better. I feel like they lean more towards art direction than realism.
>>495941634just don't update?
>>496089824>Professor Sakharov, I'm SBU
>>495941634>Don't attempt installing it on older version or other stalker gamesI thought the whole point was to make it NOT standalone, requiring call of Pripyat to play so that GSC would benefit.
GAMMA is green glowie psyop
>>495930982> Free Stalkers> Endlessly sitting in gulag smart terrainNot good, I'm want full simulation of each stalker. Sultan, Orest, Valerian, etc etc, they should not sit at the bases, but constantly migrate around the zone like squads in CoP.
>>496092307it glows green! so bright!
>play Anomaly>tired of early grind in Cordon with double barrels and pistols>dawn of day 2 walk straight North to Army Warehouses>immediately stumble upon dead Monolith with end-game guns, buckets of artifacts, and an exoskeletonFuck freeplay. I'm going back to janky story mods.
>>496089254no surprises there
>>496093030freeplay has its place after beating story.the idea of playing as a normal stalker in the zone is very appealing but always terribly executed.
>>496076448>dead swampsIs that the CS swamp level or the buildo one?
>>496104371Hearty chuckle.
>>496106840>>496106840Get in here, boys.
