S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: Stalkers raving in the face of danger - Games

[QUOTE=Calkkuna;22198409]AMK, Wild Terroritory, one of the hangar-like buildings.[/QUOTE] Obviously that one mod though, right? The bandages look different.

Guys, should I go into x18 yet?

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;22198432]Guys, should I go into x18 yet?[/QUOTE] Yes, and don't turn on your flashlight.

Almost all overhaul mods have bandages like that

[QUOTE=Bllasae;22198480]Yes, and don't turn on your flashlight.[/QUOTE] :ohdear:

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;22198563]Almost all overhaul mods have bandages like that[/QUOTE] Well, there you go then, but this would also warrant an NPC with enough ammo to take down the Red Army.

[QUOTE=Muertos13;22187483]Wow, I just got killed by a flyby. Traveling through Wild Territory with some seriously rare artifacts for Sakharov (two springs, a battery, a Mama's Beads, and a Mica) And I pass into what I guess is the trigger for a flyby cutscene showing Kruglov Vs. Wolfhound. Only problem is Kruglov died the first time through to Yantar because his AI went into super retard mode. So while I was treated to two mercs versus a single stalker, a bloodsucker chowed down on me.[/QUOTE] I know this is late, but it helps any new players. Go around the stairs, through the little crack next to the machine/generator thing, and then jump up. Same thing happened to me, every time i tried it. So i just go around and it skips the scene.

[QUOTE=Calkkuna;22195580] Also is it possible to get rid of these annoying lines? [url]http://www.1337upload.net/files/XR_3DA%202010-05-27%2019-07-12-70.png[/url][/QUOTE] That's how you find your range, that's meters in hundreds. (First one is 700m, for instance.) The 1,8m(5.9ft) = a typical sized person, you line them up with their head on the top line, and their feet on the bottom line. [editline]03:22PM[/editline] Wait maybe it's meters in 10's?

Ok so I decided to try out AMK, I talk to Sidrovich, he tells me about a Nightstar, I agree to get it if I find it. Crash. [editline]08:26PM[/editline] I'm on 1.0005 by the way.

[QUOTE=Raiskauskone;22193196]You mean this? [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/#"]View YouTUBE video[/URL] [URL]http://youtube.com/watch?v=rlXrDGDwwmQ[/URL] [/QUOTE] stuff like this makes me really disappointed with STALKER the game has superb atmosphere and story but god damn it could be better with more scripted events and better animations (like the stalker that walks into the road, the assault on the barn, etc)

[QUOTE=Calkkuna;22199172]No no no, the lines on the wall. They move with me and look very silly. Everything is stripy, it's annoying.[/QUOTE] Oh, geez, I thought you looked smarter than that, too. I don't know what to tell you about that though, something probably just got corrupted somewhere, anyone's guess. (I honestly thought it was a fence without further inspection.)

I like AMK a lot, I just wish it had some integrated graphics improvements and a better HUD. Vanilla graphics make everything look too bright :s

[editline]08:51PM[/editline] How can I down patch my game to 1.0004?

STALKER is really not very graphically demanding, it's the memory load that usually gets you. How much RAM do you have, and how much memory does the 8600 have?

[QUOTE=Tinter;22200059]2GB and 512. Still don't know any way to down patch?[/QUOTE] I have the retail version, so I don't know about downpatching. Look on the page before this one. 2GB is kinda low for most mods. I would look into getting at least 1GB more. It makes a big difference.

[QUOTE=Tinter;22199869]Know any good graphics mods, that doesn't make the game too demanding? Got a 8600gt :frown:.[/QUOTE] I have the same video card. What's wrong with it?

[QUOTE=Bllasae;22200207]I have the same video card. What's wrong with it?[/QUOTE] Stuck on DX8. [editline]09:09PM[/editline] [QUOTE=JoeSibilant;22200166]I have the retail version, so I don't know about downpatching. Look on the page before this one. [/QUOTE] Found it, Hispano patcher.

[QUOTE=Tinter;22200317]Stuck on DX8.[/QUOTE] I'm not.

X18 was a disappointment. I ran out of ammo and I couldn't be assed running to the Barkeeper to buy some, So decided to knife through it. for shits and giggles. [sp]It was fucking empty. Just a couple of burers and snorks. And a retarded pseudogiant that you can pretty much out smart and reach the scientist's corpse for the door code.[/sp] Then just run like hell towards your next door. It wasn't even creepy. Just floating boxes and weird background sounds. Honestly from the shit you people were talking about in these megathreads I expected something better. Or at least creepier.

[QUOTE=Thomo;22200694]I love DX8 Fuck ya'll DX[B]11[/B] Holy shit I just realised how many versions of DX stalker supports. and DX11 gives little to 0 good looks in CoP judging by Pictures, I don't have a DX11 card so I wouldn't be able to tell from experience[/QUOTE] The soft shadows aren't every discernable, the tesselation doesn't make much of a difference and you NEED to have Atmosfear for godrays to appear AT ALL. It was a dissapointment for me, but I didn't buy a 5870 JUST for STALKER.

So the 9th best stalker in my AMK game is called German Roundboy

[QUOTE=Thomo;22198885]I must play AMK Norjana whatwhat-monkeytalk Gah it just takes so long and there is never a full download that works[/QUOTE] AMK Nardoyana English translation DL just crashes on start up which is why no one uses it.

And lo, the legend of Dimuha Ninja was born... [img]http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/7614/balladofdimuhaninja.jpg[/img]

I got Clear Sky for £4.99 today. It should arrive tomorrow. Anyone got any tips that I need to know? I've never really played anything like STALKER before.

We need to dedicate a whole page for all the badass stalkers we've ever met in that STALKER wiki. Providing some screenshots and short background stories for each one. Would be awesome imo
