S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: R.I.P. Kostya Polar Explorer - Games

What if there would be a Exo with a closed breating system or whatever. Like a mix up of a exo and a SEVA suit, but with more bulletproofness than explosive protection.

[img] http://filesmelt.com/dl/1275979595826.jpg[/img] could one of you wonderful artists make a version of this about killing bloodsuckers with grouse? I.E "i can't wait to be a useless piece of shit all day and kill these bloodsuckers"

this thread gets boring :saddowns:

I've had Lurk' mod db page open on at least one tab for a week.

Even more newbie questions! Someone needs to explain to me how artifact hunting really works. I though all you had to do was walk near the artifacts, and they'd pop up, but my detector keeps pointing me toward artifacts that don't seem to be there at all. Like so: [img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ss_paul_06-09-10_19-31-25_zaton.jpg[/img_thumb] It seems like the artifact should be right in front of me...

Could be above or below you, or moving or something.

[QUOTE=postmanX3;22513000]It seems like the artifact should be right in front of me...[/QUOTE] Climb up the tree, you'll soon have a Koloblok spawn on the top. If you have found Joker's PDA nearby you'd know that by now. Remember, it is quite tricky to navigate that thing and the unlucky ones usually fall down, get in a critical state and end up killing themselves in the anomaly. It is worth it tho, since the artifact is always there.

Also, judging is done... Writing the article now.

This thread is going incredibly slow for 20 people reading.

I've finished Clear Sky and Shadow of Chernobyl with no mods...so can someone suggest me some awesome mods to play? And in a order to play would be nice

wait for lurk 1.1 for shoc

Luuuurrrrkkkk [editline]07:57PM[/editline] HOW I NEEED YOU

[QUOTE=PrusseLusken;22513554]Hey cool, I'm gathering a squad for Pripyat, I've currently got the army guy from the Bunker and now I'm trying to get Noah and the guy in debt. How do you make Noah join you? He just says "what do you want?" and the only option is "See you". I also had to sell my exo for the SEVA suit, and now I have 1,000 roubles when I need 5000 for the guy at Yanov Station. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] Artifacts, loot and shit. Can't be that hard to get money. If you're playing on redux, I can understand your problem...

I wonder what brand of smokes do Stalkers smoke. Cigasuckers. Blind Cigarettes. Psuedogettes.

I still can't work out how to help the Monolith squad/how to gain favour with Freedom or Duty so they'll accept them. Also where the hell is that first picture in the OP? I don't recognise it at all.

You have to help in any way possible the faction you love. Morgans PDA, Generals PDA, The Scientist Bunker guards etc.

Only the leader of the Monolith, Strider. Zulu from Duty comes with you. None from Freedom, unless Strider joined Freedom like in your case.

[QUOTE=Paravin;22513758]I wonder what brand of smokes do Stalkers smoke. Cigasuckers. Blind Cigarettes. Psuedogettes.[/QUOTE] Snorgettes. [QUOTE=PrusseLusken;22513791]I never figured out this either.[/QUOTE] It's concept art. It later evolved into the big room in the Pripyat underground you can see in CoP.

Yes, it's possible for him to join you. Help his squad out and he'll join you when you ask him later. Favor is earned through the PDAs, Scientist guarding, etc. It's not hard. Just side on one side with every mission.

My 5000th post went into this thread.

Dammit Thorny, I've got work tomorrow. Post the results. :smithicide:

Thorny, if I get an idea can I still send it to you? I didn't care about the competition, but if I get an idea I'd love to see it implemented either way.

The article is written and uploaded, awaiting authorization by a ModDB admin. Hate that stupid system. And sure Zezi, go for it.

[QUOTE=Thorny;22515536]The article is written and uploaded, awaiting authorization by a ModDB admin. Hate that stupid system. And sure Zezi, go for it.[/QUOTE] Can you put us out of our misery and tell us who the lucky three were? :)

Haha, no! The anticipation is the best bit! :P

:smithicide:

Can someone help, I'm having a wierd graphical glitch in some games, 2 of them are STAKLER games and the other game is GOTHIC 3. The shadow in the distance (exept in gothic 3) are sliced... Also, in Clear Sky, the shadows seem to render quite close to me... Pics: [IMG]http://i47.tinypic.com/s2d176.jpg[/IMG] (same for CS but more noticable, also, shadows render WAAAAAY close to me...) [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/2zem8vc.jpg[/IMG] I dont have one of CS, but that one is basicly the same has the gothic 3 problem, but the shadows only apear like that in the distance... I suspect it's from the SSAO, since when I put it on default, it gets even worse. I'm Playing all 3 games (CS, COP, G3) maxed out. Other games run just fine... [IMG]http://i46.tinypic.com/20sigj.jpg[/IMG] (Sacred 2: Fallen Angel) [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/13zahhk.jpg[/IMG] (STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl/Awesome/GOTY-all-years) I'm Currently Playin CS with Complete 2010 but the glitch happens in vanilla too... CoP is runnin with Atmosfear and some other mods that don't affect graphics. Keep in mind in CoP it only happens alot when I lower the SSAO setting, with it maxxed out, it rarely apears...

Well I'm going to sleep. :smith:
