S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: If nobody will make it I will - Games

[QUOTE=Thorny;24611919]Ok. Those of you getting the crash in Redux regarding [B]xr_corpse_detector.ltx[/B] - try downloading this fix, backing up your 'scripts' folder inside 'gamedata', then extracting the folder and over-writing anything it asks. [B]Make sure you back up first![/B] Then, try the game and do as much as you can to make it crash like before, and come back and let me know what happened. [URL]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3676303/Redux%20Crash-fix%20test.rar[/URL][/QUOTE] Thorny where do you upload yout patches? Because for some reason when IZArc (Its free unzipping tool I found, cuz i'm not paying for WinRAR) extracts the patches the game data folder is empty. [editline]11:07AM[/editline] And that xr_corpse_detection crash is wrecking havoc on me. I just found the a pile of dead mercs that contain awesome loot? Game crashes, have to find them again. : (

Freedom is a good faction, but they got really lazy during SoC(two patrols, Barrier, and the Military Base). After Skull & Co. cleared up the place (it's canon, deal with it) Freedom preety much shifted from Lukash's "Smoke weed erry day" ideal to Chekhov's "We should research the Zone as much as we can!". The problem is that their numbers greatly reduced by the attack, and after the destruction of the Brain Scorcher Freedom's need to hold the Barrier shifted to occasional patrols and setting up a new, smaller base in the North, where there is a bigger chance to find more secrets.

[QUOTE=JDER14;24640366]Isn't there a 30 day trial?[/QUOTE] AFTER the trial you'll get a notice, you can just close that and go on as usual :v:

Also the crash is driving me insane! There's a huge pile of dead mercs and zombies at Kopachy Village. I see HK G36s, Dargunovs, SVUs, Vintorezs, and a PKM on the ground, and I always crash! It's driving me insane!!!

Only blind people and morons pay for WinRar.

[QUOTE=soderholm13;24640390]AFTER the trial you'll get a notice, you can just close that and go on as usual :v:[/QUOTE] So it's just there for being there and the trial dosen't mean anything?

[QUOTE=JDER14;24640410]So it's just there for being there and the trial dosen't mean anything?[/QUOTE] You click close. Done.

Wow. brb uninstalling Izarc and getting WinRar.

My unzipper extracts the folder's but it's empty.

[QUOTE=croguy;24640124]If Duty wouldn't exist, this list would happen: Rostok would be fully occupied by mercenaries, bandits and mutants Garbage would be completely littered with all kinds of scum Bandits would have complete control of Garbage, Darkscape, Dark Valley, Agroprom and Rostok due to no faction agressively suppresing them Yantar would be under partial control by the military and all scientist squads would get raped by zombies and Mercenaries if they would take a single step out of the bunker Ukranian Military would have to repel nearly all mutants that appear in the Zone at the Cordons due to no inside faction that has numbers and equipment large and good enough to effectively clear out oversized mutant lairs Duty isn't the nicest faction, but Zone would be a lot worse place if it wasn't formed.[/QUOTE] Clearing mutant lairs has been proven to be useless. See: Agroprom Underground. Freedom holds the Army Warehouses barrier, remember that as well.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;24640735]Clearing mutant lairs has been proven to be useless. See: Agroprom Underground. Freedom holds the Army Warehouses barrier, remember that as well.[/QUOTE] Actually, Agroprom Underground Cleanup during Clear Sky was one of the more successful operations Duty made, however, they did required a really brave person who would face anything to complete an objective, and if the said person would die, it wouldn't affect Duty's numbers(Mercenary Scar). As I stated before, Duty is more efficent than anyone else when it comes to clearing mutant lairs because that is one of the things they mainly focus on.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;24641093]Was Chekhov ever confirmed to be alive? I always though the stash at Pripyat was his before he died after the events of CS. [B]He did died during the time between CS and SoC, but his ideals carried over to CoP's Freedom once Lukash was killed(talk with Loki, he'll explain everything)[/B] Wonder why they completely abandoned Agroprom, then. [B]Rostok is a position that has bigger potential for a good stronghold since apparently Monolith was there until they moved to Pripyat/Limansk/CNPP, so they probably left a shitload of fortifications and supplies for a faction to scavenge, and the Rostok area serves as one part of the Zone's intersection to various parts of it, so the reason why they moved there is purely tactical.[/B][/QUOTE]

I know there are guides on the front page for optimization but they are for SoC and I'm playing CoP. How can I increase RAM usage and make it use more than one core? I've got a quad core and 6gbs of RAM, I wanna use them. Oh and how can I increase my vision so that the grass only appears when I'm near it.

Downlaoded OL, haven't palyed for ageees some I'm having fun.

WinRAR worked. FUCK YEA! NO MORE CRASHING! Now I just need to stop using IE and get a decent browser. [editline]12:39PM[/editline] Firefox, or Chrome? My school uses Safari. Don't like it.

Chrome

after rookie village was raided, I heard after a couple of hours "get out of here stalker" :unsmith:

Firefox has more useful addons so I use it. Chrome is fine.

[QUOTE=Calkkuna;24642550]:geno: Seriously? Did you just get your first computer or something?[/QUOTE] If I could legally put "lazy" and "procratination" into my name. I would.

Firefox for addons. Chrome for shiny. Your choice.

fucking zooey deschanel get out of my face I've seen like three movies you've starred in today it's getting old

[QUOTE=Mac2468;24643134]Firefox for addons. Chrome and Opera for shiny. Your choice.[/QUOTE] Fixored

Opera for bloat & shiny.
