S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - We have death during loading - does Minecraft? - Games

Dem ghost pages [editline]3rd April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=DeVotchKa;28962747]So i've been having this weird, infuriating bug where there's absolutely no light in my game. Everything works fine, HUD and all that, but everything around me is black (unless it's a light, then it shows up just floating there). Reinstalled twice.[/QUOTE] I had that issue, and I had to just put it on static lighting.

[QUOTE=Wulfram;28961362]if I just replace LURK's shader file with kingo's shaders, will it break?[/QUOTE] LURK uses v0.8 or 0.6 of my shaders, I'm not sure. The latest version is 1.01. If anything it will break less.

[QUOTE=Big Ben;28962959]My friend thinks S.T.A.L.K.E.R is fail and that I have low standards for having enjoyed what little I had played of it before buying it.[/QUOTE] Tell him to go back to call of duty.

[B]Really big post[/B] Let us venture into the unknown places in [I]The Soup.[/I] Otherwise known as the ATP. [media]http://i.imgur.com/LEfm3.jpg[/media] Find the computer disk! That's the task Adrenaline gave me, which is how I found out how to get here. [media]http://imgur.com/neP7z.jpg [url]http://i.imgur.com/2t7QJ.jpg[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/Lp4T3.jpg[/url] [/media] Looks... cool I guess? Venture down the road a little bit, nothing out of th- [media]http://i.imgur.com/c5FDt.jpg[/media] [B]SDAFASDGSA[/B] So after that thing pops up and [I]eats my suit,[/I] I reload the autosave and try again... [media]http://i.imgur.com/L6GyG.jpg[/media] Now, this was no ordinary boar. This here boar was about three times the size of a normal one and took seven buckshot's to the face, after he got done killed three dogs and two cats. [media]http://imgur.com/S7Svw.jpg[/media] Oh hey, a... something... [media]http://i.imgur.com/MTkAw.jpg[/media] He wasn't very nice. [media]http://imgur.com/sjxtx.jpg[/media] Neither were the others with their... magic laser sights... [media]http://i.imgur.com/K4j0R.jpg[/media] Oh man, there's a talking whale here? That's cool. [media]http://imgur.com/ejl13.jpg[/media] After I get done with that [I]meat grinder[/I] of a chokepoint, I loot the bodies... [media]http://i.imgur.com/ORV6L.jpg[/media] And find that, which I can't play. Found an exoskeleton though. I go in one of the buildings I heard a radio in... [media]http://imgur.com/DmEbw.jpg[/media] Silly bandit, you can't walk through that! [media]http://i.imgur.com/ZSR2l.jpg[/media] Freeman'd. [media]http://i.imgur.com/227Ay.jpg[/media] What an... interesting poster. [media]http://imgur.com/wDS8l.jpg[/media] Oh look, a family values commercial! I search around the base a bit more, and realize something... [media]http://imgur.com/zUt7C.jpg [url]http://i.imgur.com/sq428.jpg[/url][/media] This is just the vehicle station map from MP. Oh you [I]silly[/I] Russians! [media]http://i.imgur.com/tpLsw.jpg[/media] Silly Russians with your invisible walls. [media]http://i.imgur.com/PFAtZ.jpg[/media] A shack! With a... space anomaly? :psyduck: [media]http://i.imgur.com/zqr9F.jpg[/media] Poor random loner. But hey! He has the disk I came here fo- [media]http://i.imgur.com/3piC9.jpg[/media] [B]ASDFSAGHSAD[/B] (Now, you can't see them in that screenshot, but once I picked that disk up about ~10 bandits spawned around the shack. About 10 quickloads and me going deaf due to all the firing, I made it out alive) Search around a bit more, go back to where I started from... [media]http://imgur.com/ark8K.jpg[/media] Aw, you aren't a whale at all. He tells me to go to some camp using this van: [media]http://i.imgur.com/8adzn.jpg[/media] So I hop in my rusty van and almost die to a couple eletro anomalies. [media]http://i.imgur.com/au5IL.jpg[/media] Some camp. Talked to one of the badly translated guys, had a few drinks with him... [media]http://i.imgur.com/qeEv7.jpg[/media] B... Beard? I may be drunk... but that looks like you, Beard... He tells me: [media]http://imgur.com/DcIBm.jpg[/media] Oh. But I already... whatever. I go back to the station, kill a few bandits I missed, go into one of the buildings... [media]http://i.imgur.com/i4MPa.jpg[/media] [I]Well then.[/I] (Also I am radishes) [media]http://i.imgur.com/yAWO0.jpg[/media] Killed the bandit leader guy, still am radishes... [media]http://imgur.com/Mi3pO.jpg[/media] I have found my new favorite artifact. Loot some more bodies, wait around for the helicopter... [media]http://imgur.com/j59Yy.jpg[/media] Oh hey! There's actually a helicopter. [media]http://imgur.com/G6kuc.jpg[/media] Sup Eli. [media]http://imgur.com/kPdWE.jpg[/media] Oh, um... okay. I go back to Beard, he tells me to find this courier that's supposed to look like a rookie and bring him back... [media]http://i.imgur.com/jbN52.jpg[/media] Striker? Yeah. Some rookie. [media]http://imgur.com/PWzcL.jpg[/media] He gives me a pretty cool artifact. (Ignore all my boar hooves ok) [media]http://imgur.com/WeafP.jpg[/media] Do do do do... [media]http://imgur.com/WGhYx.jpg[/media] Oh hey, a zombie ghos- [media]http://i.imgur.com/Uync6.jpg[/media] [B]WHAT IS THAT[/B] So after dealing with [I]three[/I] chimeras, I go back to Beard... [media]http://imgur.com/Xqr1H.jpg[/media] Oh. Heh. That's fun. He then tells me that the military are planning to attack the ATP, and that I need to go find some special sniper rifle. Sadly, I search for half an hour and only find an empty backpack: [media]http://i.imgur.com/7mSdT.jpg[/media] :smith: Adrenaline had this other mission to get a minigun from Sakharov, and that he'd give me a sniper rifle if I did it... I think that's how you get the super special rifle that I need for some reason. So, tired of silly Russian dialogue I go back to the Bar to unload my loot and have a drink. [media]http://i.imgur.com/eA5dc.jpg[/media] :unsmith:

I had a friend like that who refused to play Deus Ex past the first level because he thought the graphics were bad. [editline]3rd April 2011[/editline] inb4 really big post

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;28961707]Questions: Why 2 minimaps? What model of binocs are those?[/QUOTE] One on the right is a Bioradar, you buy it from sakharov, it shows _all_ people within 50 meters from you, but doesnt differentiate between freind or foe Military binocs, you get them from wolf. [editline]3rd April 2011[/editline] Zips, you can make those artifacts, Sahkarov gives you a recipe, it's a bezoar in a burner for 5 in game minutes, 75% chance success

He actually gives you a recipe for them? I talked to him about it but I never saw any recipe... And I have two bezoars too. :mmmsmug:

I was wondering will people soup run with these specs Pentium 4 2.66ghz 512 mb ram Ati radeon 9550

[QUOTE=Gmod4ever;28961063]Is anyone even paying attention to these? Or am I just wasting my time? Serious question. [/QUOTE] I am definitely paying attention. I really appreciate the rewrites.

I would like to help with this mod, Gmod4ever. People Soup needs a few fixes, but most of them can be easily done. And playing a mod like this with terrible grammar which includes childish dialogue (mostly stories) is annoying as hell.

Jesus those people soup translations are terrible.

Call of Pripyat's Complete is completly unstable to me and my monster spec computer. Why does complete lag so much.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;28963112]ATP[/QUOTE] Did it like a pro. [img]http://cdn.fpcontent.net/fp/ratings/winner.png[/img]

[QUOTE=darkedone02;28964084]Call of Pripyat's Complete is completly unstable to me and my monster spec computer. Why does complete lag so much.[/QUOTE] It's complete dude...

[QUOTE=seano12;28964028]Jesus those people soup translations are terrible.[/QUOTE] Some are really well done, but others once you get further into the game are absolutely horrible.

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;28959021]Imagine a Freeman's Mind style playthrough of one of the games. I'd watch it.[/QUOTE] You know I have never watched those although Youtube is constantly recommending them to me, maybe I should check it out

[QUOTE=Big Ben;28962959]My friend thinks S.T.A.L.K.E.R is fail and that I have low standards for having enjoyed what little I had played of it before buying it.[/QUOTE] I tried to get a friend to play it and he doesn't even understand the story, he honestly thinks a second nuclear explosion happened.

I got a guy to play it. He ragequitted in Cordon already because he got swarmed by a pack of dogs and a makarov sniper bandit. "Bullshit, so unrealistic." Three hours later he's still playing it, determined to beat it with "The power of russian beverages." He's a cool guy.

Could anyone advice me with where to put K1ngo64's dynamic particles mod?

I got him to get Call of Pripyat and he started playing. Right at the beginning of the game he asks me: "Dude, what's that invisible thing which makes breathing noises?" And I'm like: "Oh, that's just a bloodsucker... Wait, you've encountered one right after spawning?! Good luck" His cries of fear were awesome. :3

At what point does dying and reloading saves stop being a legitimate STALKER technique and start being in the realm of save scumming

Save scumming?

Is there another file I'm missing for People Soup? the Repository has the People Soup.001, .002 and .003 but I can't open to extract any of them like any normal series of .rar files

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;28966220]Save scumming?[/QUOTE] "I got something slightly wrong, better reload"

It's like the soviets made their buildings in parts, then glued them together at the construction site.

Argh 7zip, never had to use it before... Damnit
