S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: Invincibility Fridge Edition - Games

[QUOTE=Strider_07;18794384]Sid is a stingy bastard I'm replaying vanilla for shits and giggles, and I just realized this again.[/QUOTE] He sells the 5.45 Groza rarely before you talk to Wolf. :v:

The second 2 are a little to fireworks-y for me. The first 2 are just...ominous; seeing something like that on the horizon would definitely make me want to find cover. [editline]09:22PM[/editline] On a related note, I'm really glad Holden decided to put blowouts in LURK. They add a sense of urgency and of the Zone being a place you [i]really[/i] do not want to be. For example, I was fighting my way to the entrance to X16, when suddenly a blowout hits. The next 10 seconds are spent scrambling to get into the underground before shit gets nasty. This will be even better, since if you don't get to cover quick enough, you get CRUSHED BY THE FIST OF THE ZONE instead of just taking gradual damage.

[QUOTE=Lyoko774;18794494]He sells the 5.45 Groza rarely before you talk to Wolf. :v:[/QUOTE] I wish he'd sell RPGs. Would make that first mission to go find Nimble much quicker. At the least a Vintorez once in a while.

[QUOTE=holdenmcclure;18794277]I already do that, however that's not animating, that's transitioning, and it fading in and out every minute would hardly give the impression you'd need to give from something like this: [url]http://www.argus-textures.ru/images/gallery/blowout_1.jpg[/url] Weather overhauled didn't manufacture any form of blowouts to my knowledge as well. Regardless, I'm more or less mimicking what Argus said. I'm sure it's possible even without an SDK to create such an effect, however I'm not aware of it, and obviously Argus wasn't either.[/QUOTE] Please for the love of god, Holden, please add more places to hide during a blowout. I can't think of the many times I've hid in a building that wasn't protected for a blowout. It was well equipped too, all closed off and everything, but I still took damage anyways.

The only time I've been damaged from a blowout when I shouldn't have been was when I blundered into a random building on the edge of Pripyat in the dead of night, escaping the controllers that killed my squad, fell asleep, and woke up in the middle of a blowout. Even though I was completely enclosed, the building was out of the way enough to be overlooked, and I had to spam medkits to survive. Otherwise, there's always been a handy shack/train car/building to hide in. EDIT: wow, that makes me want to reinstall ArsenOL. That was the most hectic Pripyat run I've ever done.

[QUOTE=PaChIrA;18795229]You'll shoot your eye out[/QUOTE] More like your head [editline]11:11PM[/editline] STALKER needs a revolver.

[QUOTE=Strider_07;18795668]More like your head[/QUOTE]That reminds me of a funny story. In Call of Pripyat, I had to hunt a chimera in the dead of night, with two loners as backup. Knowing that it would be a tough fight, I packed my trusty RPG7. We set out, arrived, and the chimera struck! I fired, killing it in one shot...as well as killing one loner and incapping another. Since I had hurt him, he was hostile to me, so I couldn't heal him. I had to finish him off.

[editline]11:12PM[/editline] Which is too bad because videogame revolvers make my penis happy.

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;18791224]Just got my new Rig with Windows 7 and it says that I "Need to run the game as an administrator first start" and well, I am running it as an admin and my profile is Admin so. Why is this happening? Patched it to 1.5.03 and still nothing. :C "Insufficent prilvages: You must be an administrator when you run this application for the first time"[/QUOTE] Right click, run as administrator. Once that's all done and set up. TURN. UAC. OFF.

[QUOTE=nige111;18795905] TURN. UAC. OFF.[/QUOTE] Listen to this man.

[QUOTE=Sibilantjoe;18795689][editline]11:12PM[/editline] Which is too bad because videogame revolvers make my penis happy.[/QUOTE] The asian dude that made the Nagant also made a revolver for clear sky, I'm sure you could pinch the animations and compile whatever the fuck revolver on it. oh lord, M29 Satan in STALKER. :flashfap: [editline]07:57AM[/editline] Gosuke I think his name was.

Link please. And I wouldn't be the one to talk to about that, I know nothing about animations. Holden, if you're here, is this possible? Because having the Raging Bull/other kickass revolver make a comeback in LURK 1.1 would be THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST EDIT: I did find a video of Gosuke's Sturm Ruger mod for Clear Sky [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjMTYJEZMjU[/media]

I'm not sure where it is, but it's on the filefront stalker pages somewhere, I think it was a ruger revolver.

I wish Chef wasn't so fucking stoned, then I could ask him where he knows me from.

I have bad memories of OL 2.0 where a blowout started when I entered the Red Forest area and I couldn't get anywhere in time, even the train carriage :'(

[QUOTE=Zackin5;18798918]Holy shit that's awesome.[/QUOTE] I liked it to begin with, but the flashes of colour all got a bit overwhelming and I think it'd be really annoying really quick :S

Speaking of Chef, in Stalker Reblanced (Not my typo, it was the devs fault) when I gave a beer to him this uber sharp tense music started to play like I had just spelled doom for the entire Zone :tinfoil:

No thank you.

Anyone wanna add: Killarfromspace ? (on steam that is) I really like to have someone to talk too while im playing stalker and such :|

[QUOTE=Monkey pie;18801367]Anyone wanna add: Killarfromspace ? (on steam that is) I really like to have someone to talk too while im playing stalker and such :|[/QUOTE] Join the group chat and wait for people to come. Even if there is no one there, just open it and leave it. That way more and more people join [editline]07:23PM[/editline] Also be a Stalker-Bro and do that everyday, the chat seems to die faster and faster everyday

Where are the save files located? I want to clear them up.

I don't fuck with mods anymore... tried two for each game, O HELLO CORRUPTED SAVES please make sure i cant play again.

Enjoy your not-so-fun game.

[QUOTE=MuTAnT;18796669]I wish Chef wasn't so fucking stoned, then I could ask him where he knows me from.[/QUOTE] Ya, he is probably Marked one's drunk father...

Why would you load a vanilla save in a mod?

[QUOTE=Thomo;18802700]Your meant to start a new game when you install mods.[/QUOTE] Ya, i did. any saves other than the auto save will automatically crash if you try to load it. even if u save at all then try to load them. [editline]03:45PM[/editline] [QUOTE=SFArial;18802710]Why would you load a vanilla save in a mod?[/QUOTE] i didn't.
