Is there any alive mod that ports SoC campaign to CS/CoP+ engine version?
interesting, r_populik was on the CoC forum's chatroom asking some questions about the alignment of ironsights. wonder if he'll be releasing some new models? if so, that'd be great. his content, while a little too tacticool at times, is some of the most consistently good STALKER weapon models that are out there. I'm a huge fan of OWR and personally using it in my mod along with other models of his that are harder to find bundled up into one weapon collection. definitely hope to see some new stuff from him.
I find the STALKER character models and animation really charming. They don't bug me at all to be honest.
the biggest problem i have with the character models and animations i have is that, you have these hd guns, hd hands and everything, maybe even gunslinger (a man can dream) and then you see this weird as fuck 3rd person animations and the models with feet so big they can stomp out a village with one step
That's why I hate HD weapon packs and rarely sought them out. I much rather have a consistent overall artstyle than polish in just one aspect of the game. Janky as they might be, the default weapons match the npcs and mutants in quality, because they were created together. Introducing better weapons into the game is easy, because the models are a dime-a-dozen. But very few people work on the character models, even less the mutants. You get either ports from other games that stick like a sore thumb, wierd mix and match of models from outside sources tacked on to GSC models, or mix-and-match of GSCs work (which I tend to be more forgiving towards). The biggest stride in an update of NPCs was Ninja's HD pack, which at least was consistent internally. And not to insult Ninja and the work he put in his pack, he certainly did the work and satisfied the people that seek realistic NPCs/gear, but nothing in his pack has even an ounce of the character that GSCs models do imo. His attempt at recreating the sunrise in the HD pack was valiant, but ultimately missed the mark.

Even though I can believe it's real(The old situation with GSC announcing it, but without having made anything), I can't be hype when I know that the industry has changed dramatically since then and so has GSC. There's no guarantee whatsoever that the game will try to cater to the fans. Not to mention any trailer that isn't gameplay can just be disregarded.
Definitely not real, it's stolen from some art student's vimeo page https://vimeo.com/278988485
well i wasn't going for a recreation either, i just wanted to have a set of hd models that fit the idea of the setting, and look consistent, the pack was never supposed to be default models but HD
As much as I like some of the new weapons in packs I'd really appreciate it if somebody sat down and tweaked the original hand models, and reanimated all the weapons to look like a modern game. I don't mind the HD weapon packs as much as you do personally because in STALKER with vegetation mods the environment visuals I think help balance it out, but i'd love a vanilla weapons set that was animated to gunslinger's quality. And I don't count stuff like king friday's pack, because while they are decent he made no model tweaks and the hands tend to have strange grips, and some of the guns just look stubby and wrong. Changing the proportions would go a long way towards making them more modern while keeping the same aesthetic
You might like this https://vk.com/gscwr It's a mod that fixes up vanilla models + reanimates them
Anyone know in with file are stored animation of player, like 3rd person running/jumping? or it use default m_stalker.ltx file for that?
any ways to make Offline A-Life tracking more accurate in CoCk? And are there any ways to make NPCs more """"smart""" in general? Also it kinda sucks that there's no unique AS Val in CoP. There's one in ShoC afaik.
The unique AS Val is the "Sniper VLA" which is a sniper variant that lacks the accuracy and power needed for a sniper while also having massive recoil. That said it's easy to get and makes a good alternate if you don't have a Vintar BC yet, and it's lighter.
Adding most of ShoC unique weapons is pointless in CoP because you have upgrade system. And basic Val in CoP already has "dovetail".
Recently got some S.T.A.L.K.E.R patches of the various factions. Made a post in the Patch General thread, but forgot to make one here. https://i.imgur.com/UcL71hx.jpg
I personally prefer this Monolith patch: https://i.imgur.com/ytADX38.jpg
Got myself a Freedom one. They're cool as shit. I like walking around with it on my jacket and seeing closet nerds grin because they recognize it.
How much did the whole set cost you, if you don't mind me asking? They look so good
Last one in second row should be "МВС УКРАЇНИ" not "МВG УКРАTНN" Also "РЕНЕГАТЫ" spelt as "РЕНЕFAТЫ"
Where did you get those?
I got the patches from PATCHION, they're based in Poland. Shipping was pretty quick also; as I ordered these patches on Tuesday and got them by Friday. The whole set cost me £21.24 (Originally £24.99, but they offered a discount), and the delivery was free.
Checked out the latest CoC dev build, I love the NPC profiles. Makes the character_descs much less bloated.
have they implemented smart cover yet? thats about the only feature i could give a shit about
I've been curious about SoC ports to later engines and I stumbled on attempt to port dx10/11 to Shadow of Chernobyl with some tweaks It has multiple versions (original/CS weather types, CoP style UI) with some fan fixes. Not fully crash free and mostly for rus version (tho It can be tweaked with few files), but still interesting. http://ap-pro.ru/forum/94-90718-1 https://puu.sh/BTTen.png https://puu.sh/BTTf2.png https://puu.sh/BTTfq.png https://puu.sh/BTTge.png
Lets break 10 days of no posts with this image of a russian version of the SDK that looks in some way cool and some way ... really russian.. https://media.moddb.com/images/mods/1/20/19372/2401803f99.png Link: https://www.gameru.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=70710&st=120
lmao nice they use imgui for the menus, i'd recognize the standard imgui::checkbox anywhere
What's up. Any news mod-wise since the last post I made asking this like five months ago?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJFJo4Y0udg definitely blowing out of the proportion on how risky for health it is, because it really isn't that risky at all
