STALKER Series Megathread: All news we get about STALKER 2 are bad jokes and concept art - Games

[QUOTE=Muukkis;34040693]:words:[/QUOTE] Damn so the variation mod doesn't work with Atmosfear (I'll check it out anyway just to make sure, I might be able to merge them)? Oh and I'm well aware of all the other mods, I've played Redux/IWA/Swartz. I'm waiting for the newer versions of both Redux/Swartz to go back, and also waiting for Misery to just come out. It's been awhile since I used them though but last I remember they gave me weird performance issues (Stuttering a bunch mostly) I thought there might have been a tiny ZRP though but I guess CoP being the most polished really didn't need it. (Also there was one or two patches, if I remember correctly though, they were already pushed out before the English version came out) E: Looked up the Variation mod, I don't see anyone saying its incompatible with Atmosfear, I'm gonna try it out. Figure I'll need a new game to test it

How can I disable prefetching in CoP?

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34040975]How can I disable prefetching in CoP?[/QUOTE] There's a mod out there somewhere, but people reported a-life wasn't working properly with it. So I wouldn't recommend it

If anyone makes STALKER bros 2012, can I be part of it? Preferably as a Dutier getting chased by snorsks or something. Also, someone should add Seano12 as a grave or something.

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34041268]You've gotta have some Freedomers laughing at the snorsk chase though. Me and whoever else here likes them.[/QUOTE] That would be perfect Also mix the Snorsks with some other mutants. Because for me, all the time in STALKER, the only time i see a dangerous mutant (well dangerous in the sense of anything more than a boar or a dog), i never have ammo to fight them, resulting in me having to run away like a fag.

Holy shit, I was walking through Jupiter when BAM, like 8 zombies out of fucking nowhere. I almost shit my pants, dammit SGM-B.

Dr. SGM or: How I learnt to use all my RAM

xrCore.dll you and your silly crashes. On the other hand, at least the crashes were clean, and I has been able to play for 3 hours straight.

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34041268]You've gotta have some Freedomers laughing at the snorsk chase though. Me and whoever else here likes them.[/QUOTE] Put me in there as a freedomer. Damn duty has a stick up their collective asses.

Snorks are easy now that I draw my knife as soon as I hear them.

How much of a RAM-hog is SGM? I'm only on 2GB of RAM here... If it has high-res textures I hope I can replace them with low-res ones. I'd be playing on static lighting + medium/low draw distance.

Nope, I'm on 2GB of RAM currently too. He-ey, bro.

I've got 4GB RAM and it uses it all. If you don't have enough, it just puts it into the pagefile and expect months of stutter.

@ Kingo, understandable, but is that the case on any video configuration? Even static lighting?

Probably not, I play DX11 maxed with SSAO and Sun on Low

All right, fuck this, I disabled Alpha Squads, extra mutants and NPC grenades. I'm fucking done with them. [I]Why, Alpha Squads are piss eas[/I] [B][U]NO[/U][/B] I was defending Noah's Barge from the horde of mutants and everything was going fairly decently. A few loads were necessary since my scope was too powerful for such short distances and David got killed. I got to the Shevchenko Controller, and then Alpha Squad decides to attack with not just one, but [U]three[/U] individual detachments. One from Shevchenko, one from the Cranes and one from behind the Barge. Fortunately they get mauled by the mutants for the most part and mutants get cheesed by them, but when the Shevchenko squad starts spamming me with hand grenades I just ragequit the whole fucking game. I came back and killed the controller, ran behind the barge and tried to snipe them with my godly M14. Head shots from that thing seem to be hit scan and kill anyone in one shot. Then a fucking chimera and hamsters and snorsks appear out of fucking nowhere, gang-rape me and get me to one health with severe bleeding while the Alpha Commander appears out of nowhere as well. He one-shots me with his faggot VSS and I end up quick-loading for the 57th time. Well, I come back and make the Alphas my top priority. I climb on the barge's tower which is surprisingly bad for cover since their high-calibre rounds drill through the wood. I still manage to kill every last one of them before [U]yet another fucking Alpha Squad appears.[/U] I kill them as well, dropping my M14 in pitiful orange condition and then David dies. Another Alpha Squad appears and somehow manages to throw instantly exploding F1 grenades into the tower. No thank you, Alpha Squads are now going fucking extinct. I've spent the last three hours going around the Zone and hunting the remaining spawns down.

What's the secret recognition phrase of the Alpha Squad members? [I]Bend over, Degtyarev![/I]

It got so fekking annoying after a while. I did manage to find the file which decided what items NPCs had though, so I restricted grenades to only high-ranking NPCs... and that pretty much fixed it, phew. Also, NPCs love shooting me through the walls in Yanov station. Hell, sometimes they've even fired at me inside the station. Oh by the way, I have your mod merge - it's in .7z format, 900mb. Fucked if I know what my upload speed is, but I might be able to get it uploaded for you on my Dropbox tomorrow. ~ duty 4 lifez ~

Is Stalker-Bros 2012 planning starting already? If so, can I be in it? Preferably as a dutyer holding a pair of fishnet stockings and a hammer?

[QUOTE=ThatCrazyGmanV2;34044567] holding a pair of fishnet stockings and a hammer?[/QUOTE] I'm not even going to ask why.

[QUOTE=Araknid;34044763]freedom is inferior Duty kicks their ass[/QUOTE] If that's how it's gonna be, then fine.

I want to be in stalker bros 2012 too, Killing a chimeria with a knife in a wizard robe.

Have we even got anyone who's going to make stalker bros 2012? edit: [QUOTE=Zezibesh;34044911]you guys are asking a bit much IMO, isn't last year's "everyone standing around doing random stuff maybe relating to their avatars" enough? you don't need mary sue mutant-killing self-inserts in the picture since no one cares[/QUOTE] yay i get to be a radiation patch
