S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - Call of :smith: - Games

Done a quick, messy merge of LURK weapons into Freeplay Start, going to see if it worked now...

Hearing Ghost's final recording in X16 is always creepy as fuck.

I still can hardly understand how motherfucker like Ghost would die to a controller? He had plenty of cover to avoid the mind-dimble-ding-a-bling attacks of the mutant

[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;27410146]I still can hardly understand how motherfucker like Ghost would die to a controller? He had plenty of cover to avoid the mind-dimble-ding-a-bling attacks of the mutant[/QUOTE] Probably didn't see it coming. Not to mention there are zombies everywhere.

[QUOTE=spekter;27410155]Probably didn't see it coming. Not to mention there are zombies everywhere.[/QUOTE] Naw, he told in the recording that he had to get past the controller somehow after the scientist abandoned him and ran away.

We need an archive for all the Stalker stories that people here come up with either through writing Stalker fiction or that they see come from the game itself. And I mean one for stories other than Paravins. Yetch. His avatar is really cute and all, but that only makes it even creepier that he writes that stuff.

I imagine that Controllers have that psi-aura that fucks with your mind whether they can see you or not. Also, I agree - we need a Facepunch STALKER Story Archive... Amez - Wanna make another site for us? :D

I'm not particularly fond of the LURK outfits and stats, which is why I didn't copy them straight over, resulting in the missing icons. [*]Fix the trade inventories for all the traders [*]Add the new weapons to all NPCs [*]Check for any crashing bugs [*]Might have to redo the icons, so instead of colour indicating calibre, it'll have a little bit of text telling that. [*]Reduce the ridiculous recoil.[/list]

Well done mate, good job!

Okay, I updated my drivers and reinstalled it on Steam, Vanilla version 1.0005. No dice, still can't see a thing. This is weird. I played this game fine before, not so long ago in fact, with L.U.R.K. How very odd.

Soup is like Smod for hl2 it's awesome, but it's so hard and it takes so [b]long[/b] to load a game god damned.

Temporarily fixed the icons, now onto other stuff. [QUOTE=Lithe;27410961]Okay, I updated my drivers and reinstalled it on Steam, Vanilla version 1.0005. No dice, still can't see a thing.

So, this Freeplay Start + LURK Merge...any AMK in there?

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;27411208]So, this Freeplay Start + LURK Merge...any AMK in there?[/QUOTE]You mean, new creatures and stuff? Not yet, though that would be pretty cool. Afaik the maker of Freeplay Start uses a lot of AMK coding features e.g. random weather and such. There's unfinished blowouts, I don't think he got that far implementing that. Got the icons working, though I will need to increase the inventory window size. I also found you could shoot Sakharov without causing the game to crash :v: [media]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_robin_01-14-11_18-58-16_l08_yantar1.jpg [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_robin_01-14-11_18-58-25_l08_yantar.jpg[/url] [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_robin_01-14-11_18-59-48_l08_yantar.jpg[/url] [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_robin_01-14-11_19-00-28_l08_yantar.jpg[/url] [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_robin_01-14-11_19-00-53_l08_yantar.jpg[/url][/media]

Oh hey, just remembered I had some DDR3 RAM lying around. When my new gaming PC gets here, I'm going to take it from 8GB to 12! :v: [editline]14th January 2011[/editline] Wait, what is ghost doing there?

After loading several quicksaves and alot of cursing I managed to save Yurik from the bandits at Garbage, and a little bit later I decided to check out a stash and it had a fucking exosuit in it. Im just loving AMK:SE right now.

Only if you add the Crowbar from NS.

[QUOTE=Thorny;27407897]Yay people seemed to like part 1 of the story :3: [editline]14th January 2011[/editline] Also I agree, Clear Sky Red Forest was fucking badass and I'm going to do my best to get it into CoP.[/QUOTE] 100x Agree. CS Red Forest and Swamps are my two favorite areas in all of STALKER (though Pripyat is cool too). The awesomeness and originality of the wide-stretched, open, explore-friendly swamps was quite probably what got the developers to focus on large-ness when designing the CoP levels, yet it feels more detailed and more awesome than any of those areas. I'm guessing the Swamps aren't likely to be included however?

I'm as yet undecided :/

Throw in the 1935 swamps for ultimate victory.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;27411892]Throw in the 1935 swamps for ultimate victory.[/QUOTE]There's swamps in build 1935?

Oh yes :3: [editline]14th January 2011[/editline] Oh, look, I found pics from someone who managed to get a non-3:4 res in 1935. He also took a ton of screenshots. [url]http://games.cnews.ru/stalker/screens/build1935/ahh[/url]

Jesus fucking christ Playing LURK 1.0552 I notice I've found the stash coordinates for the SEVA suit stash in Wild Terroritory, I go there, fight the mercs, lead Kruglov to Yantar, kill 3 bloodsuckers and 1 Poltergeist, get my balls irradiated in the building, open the stash just to find a fucking leather jacket... [editline]14th January 2011[/editline] Oh well, at least I ran into a guy with an SVD, he was a dutyer and I do not want to piss duty off so I just rolled an explosive barrel next to him and blew it up :buddy:
