[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;30998576]snip never mind I fixed PreSky. So which Faction should I join? Agree (Freedom) Disagree (Duty) Funny (Loner) Medal (Ecologists) Winner (Mercs) Zing (Renegades/Bandits, not sure which one of them is joinable) Informative (Clear Sky) Heart (None) [editline]8th July 2011[/editline] By the way I'll wait an hour 'till I play[/QUOTE] Aaw looks like I'mg going with the Freedom boys. Personally I was hoping for Merc or Ecologists.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;30997265]That's cruel[/QUOTE] Such is life in the Zone. [QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;30999543]Which S.T.A.L.K.E.R game do i buy? I got $25 to spend on it.[/QUOTE] Get clear sky if you want a more open world game.

[QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;30999621]FUCK i only have $25[/QUOTE] Just buy SoC then buy CoP. (I say "then" because you get a Loyalty Discount on CoP AFTER you own another STALKER game on Steam) Come back for CS later, than again it is $5 now so if you can get an extra dollar it may be worth picking up also.

Clear sky is cheap Now i just have to figure out where to put my credit card info

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;30999554]I watched a bit of it but it was laggy. :saddowns: Might be my end though.[/QUOTE] It was for me too.

Installing my retail version of SoC with AMK on it and having my steam version with Priboi is the best idea ever.

I don't understand presky its a prequel to a prequel? Then it would be before the disaster even happened.

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;31000320]Then[/QUOTE] I don't know what you're talking about! *cough* edits post *cough*

[QUOTE=cdr248;31000482]I don't understand presky its a prequel to a prequel? Then it would be before the disaster even happened.[/QUOTE] I don't really know. There's barely any story in it anyway, just wanted to get my STALKER fix

Damnit, steam, why dont you let me install S.T.A.L.K.E.R!

[QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;31000628]Damnit, steam, why dont you let me install S.T.A.L.K.E.R![/QUOTE] What's your error? Also, my mind=fucked right now. I start fucking around with the settings editor for Shaders Max and I fuck some stuff up after a while. I re install the shaders from one of the presets and BOOM. Everything is bloomed to the max. I uninstall the shaders, still there. Either I'm at the bar at some insanely rare time or somethings fucked up. Anyone wanna tell me where the settings for bloom are located?

If you are using LURK 1.1, it automatically enables fast bloom but it scales it automatically. Otherwise open the console and type in: [code]r2_ls_bloom_fast off[/code] If that doesn't work you should try: [code]r2_tonemap on r2_tonemap_adaptation 1. r2_tonemap_amount 0.7 r2_tonemap_lowlum 0.1 r2_tonemap_middlegray 0.8[/code]

EDIT: Here is a pic. [IMG]http://i51.tinypic.com/1zmck9d.jpg[/IMG] I don't have fast bloom on and the only mod I have on is Complete (don't worry, it's not my first playthrough).

Oh god that is a lot of bloom, take a screenshot using the full performance preset and I will figure it out. [editline]9th July 2011[/editline] and upload your user.ltx file

Same result. This only happens during a relatively specific time during the day and I had to fuck around with the sleeping bag in Complete to get back to that time again so there is a possibility it's a Complete bug but I don't know how exactly that could be. Here is my user.ltx. There are a couple modifications in it that Complete asks for. [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?88kw1pldjt920m8[/url] If you have a copy of Complete lying around I can give you a save file to see if you get it also. Quick edit. I should note that I tried using an old user.ltx I had backed up before the issue happened. No luck. I did fuck pretty hard with that Shaders Max settings editor but I don't know how that could have effected it. I clicked all the buttons several times though before realizing I had to import my previous settings.

I admit the editor is a piece of shit, that is because I wrote it one day at school and haven't bothered with it since.

[QUOTE=K1ngo64;31001798]I admit the editor is a piece of shit, that is because I wrote it one day at school and haven't bothered with it since.[/QUOTE] Do you know of any files it may have accidentally edited? I seriously don't get how the fuck this happened.

Weird it looks pretty normal. Try using my user.ltx file and see if it fixes it. You might need to change the resolution at the bottom of it though. [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/user1.ltx[/url]

Still pissing me right the fuck off.

Here's my best suggestion: Play a good mod instead.

I still wonder why corpses end up in bonfires. One day I was heading into the Military Warehouses and I came across the Duty members and their little camp nearby. As usual, after they kill the 3 Freedom members in the road, I went to their little encampment and saw a bunch of them gathered around their bonfire. As they sat there, I was disturbed at what was in it: a dead loners corpse, lit ablaze and spinning round and round. In any other video game I would be freaking out, laughing or wondering what the hell is going on. Since this was, of course, STALKER, I shrugged it off and moved on with my business.

Playing Clear Sky at the moment. So I'm trying to follow Fang and I run into a bunch of Duty guys. They tell me that it's dangerous on the way and that I should be going with a group of Duty guys. So I come along with them towards their Duty base. On the way there we encounter bloodsuckers. One of the bloodsuckers jumped right in front of the guy in front of me. Trying to save him, I try to fire my gun. But it turns out the gun jammed. As I reloaded to unjam my gun the bloodsucker jumps away. :tinfoil:

It's a scripted event. Never happens again. Sadly.
