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

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;34270725]Apparently chickens in SGM explode. Cleared the sawmill of zombies, found a chicken on top of the tractor, shot it... now I have to clear the sawmill again...[/QUOTE] Explode into blood.

[QUOTE=chutney;34265903]or to find the mountain of bodies that randomly spawn from every faction and to watch all your buddies walk into an electro to loot a former dead guy[/QUOTE]Yeah, that I haven't figured out what's causing yet. Quite a serious problem, as it often ends with an entire faction dying in one anomaly to get their former comrade's stuff. Seems their anomaly detection is fucked, haven't figured out why. So far, i've tracked part of the problem to some of the ridiculous "harmless" anomalies that the maker of Freeplay Start 1.21 added. See, those harmless anomalies won't hurt the player (no damage, tiny to non-existent radius), but NPCs are scripted to die in them, under any circumstance (specifically, the Whirligig (notice how they ragdollise when picked up by it, rather than when it does damage like for the player). Since they're "harmless", the NPCs can't detect them. That, however, doesn't explain why they're collectively suiciding into the larger, quite blatantly harmful anomalies. [QUOTE=Fables;34267214]Also Sgt. Doom should fix enemies using their pistols over their main gun. This problem seems to be prevalent among Duty and the Military.[/QUOTE]Haven't figured out what's causing that yet. It's based on the same problem that has stalkers in every single mod for STALKER prefer their goddamn sawn-offs to absolutely everything else offered to them. [QUOTE=Araknid;34269373]Any possibility of making it so you can get a stalker or a squad of stalkers to follow you? Provided you are friendly with them of course. I want to lead a monolith squad through the red forest to exterminate the non-believers with extraordinary force.[/QUOTE]Most likely possible. Just need to find the mod that e.g. OL merged into itself to do the same. Failing that, i'll just surgically remove (read: tear the mod into fritters looking for the bloody thing) the piece of the mod needed. [QUOTE=Doneeh;34269539]There's no reason to question either the Monolith or Nasty Nas. Both are amazing. Also, in Doom's Mod, why is it that I can sell a single handgun for over 12,000 RU? It seems a bit odd to realize a handgun is worth more than a somewhat decent assault rifle. Then again, I tend to find much odder prices around this mod anyway, so might as well cash in where I can.[/QUOTE]Some of the merchants are fucked, haven't gotten around to rebalancing all of their loadouts and prices as some of them seem to have weird ways of calculating their prices. [QUOTE=Araknid;34270710]I love the pistol animations in dooms mod and the fact that they actually do quite alot of damage. The pistol anims just make me feel like they're more powerful and not fragile pieces of plastic shit. The textures and reskins for them too.[/QUOTE]Thank KingFriday for that; he did the animations for LURK's weapons.

I think the preferences to pistols might be due to them having a higher damage than what they're given, not sure though.

[QUOTE=Fables;34271249]I think the preferences to pistols might be due to them having a higher damage than what they're given, not sure though.[/QUOTE]Possibly. Depends on what pistols they're using over what weapons. As far as I know, nearly all the rifles do more damage than any of the handguns (except possibly the higher-calibre pistols). I'll need to see what pistols they prefer over what rifles.

And one more thing, can you possibly find a different system for sleeping? I don't like having to snore for how many hours I put in, and it's unskippable.

[QUOTE=Fables;34271320]And one more thing, can you possibly find a different system for sleeping? I don't like having to snore for how many hours I put in, and it's unskippable.[/QUOTE]Going to try and remove that from it, but keep in mind Lua to me is pretty much moonspeak, so it's more a matter of luck than skill that i've gotten anything done with the mod.

Just installed DMX for People Soup. Is the main menu supposed to look funky, and everything looking out of place? [editline]18th January 2012[/editline] This is intense. DMX is an add-on for People Soup, and it's just over 12 gigs in size. There's an addon for this addon, and its over a gigabyte in size. These people are batshit crazy

Hey, could someone link me to the People Soup mod? I've been watching a couple videos of it and wanted to give it a shot.

[url]http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1824863[/url] It's not too hard to install, just takes a while

Ah, thank you. I hope I can run it, I've got 4GB of RAM and a decent CPU/GPU. I've been watching videos by someone named Bawxman.

You shouldn't have issues running it. Probably won't have any issue with DMX either, but this site has the default textures as well as DMX itself and addons/extras [url]http://fishfinfossil.com/narodnaya/index.php?dir=[/url]

Are there any extra things you would recommend?

More like "default textures for anyone that doesn't like stuttering"

General Voronin gave me an SVD with 200 rounds of ammunition for killing a single bandit who only required one AK74 shot to kill :v: Also how do you install gnomus scopes with Dooms mod? it doesnt seem to work and i hate the current scopes in it.

I'm not sure if those addons work with the [url=http://tecnobacon.com/]Tecnobacon[/url] version though. (Which is the one you should use)

[QUOTE=Ghost101;34271588]Are there any extra things you would recommend?[/QUOTE]I havent tried DMX yet so I don't know. Just try whatever sounds good [editline]18th January 2012[/editline] My hud, loading screens, main menu, inventory, items, and pretty much everything else got fucked up. Re-copying the textures should fix this, right? I'm pretty sure I copied everything right the first time though

Just goes to show how much I can remember of it anymore. I'll add it as an option at some point, but there are a lot of scopes to go through.

Ill post some pictures of the PSO, because right now its really ugly, especially when using it with an Assault rifle. edit: the pso scope is like [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/48521896/XR_3DA%202012-01-18%2019-13-58-00.jpg[/img_thumb] When it should be like [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/48521896/ss_gnome_07-08-08_22-30-28_%28l04_darkvalley%29.jpg[/img_thumb] I dont know, maybe i'm doing something wrong when replacing the PSO-1 scope, but I dont think i am, because the same method worked with the ACOG. The current scope is more or less bearable but ONLY for sniping. I'm also not 100% sure if the scope on the L86 and the F2000 were fixed, but its not a problem since i basically never use either of those rifles. But I love the ability to take scopes off SVDs, I love that :)

A lot of the weapons use different names for the scope files, which is why replacing them might not work properly.

Ah fuck it.

Finally got everything working, the textures were messed up because I forgot to replace the user.ltx file :v: And it has inverted mouse enabled. What kind of monster plays Stalker with an inverted mouse?!?! [editline]18th January 2012[/editline] Wait nevermind, it's retarded again. I'm just gonna use the default Soup textures, the DXM ones look like shit anyways

Playing people soup with inverted controls on master with no suit [B]and a 360 controller[/B]. [editline]18th January 2012[/editline] I livestreamed that, too.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;34271840]Playing people soup with inverted controls on master with no suit [B]and a 360 controller[/B].[/QUOTE] That'd be like playing blind drunk

Don't suppose anyone knows of a decent STALKERSOUP http mirror? The torrent doesn't seem to be working for me. Trackers are all invalid and getting nothing from Peer Exchange/Discovery.

Oh voronin you generous silly billy First he gives me an SVD with 200 rounds for killing a single bandit. Now he gave me an AS VAL with 150 rounds for killing three freedomers. Wait a second... I'VE FOUND VORONINS TRUE IDENTITY!

Got accepted into uni an hour ago to do a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. Hopefully this stalker will be a wealthy computer man in the future.

Trying to see what state the next patch for my mod is in before I stopped working on it. Goddamn it's a mess. For some reason, I figured it'd be a good idea to completely reorganise all the inventory icons. I feel procrastination's fist deep inside my ass again, and Skyrim's gentle hand caressing my genitals.
