S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: The Zone will stop the Russians - Games

EOTechs planned for compatible NATO carbines too.[/QUOTE]Could you not have two versions of each gun, and change between them somehow? [editline]28th April 2013[/editline] For PSO+Kobra on each of those, I mean.

[QUOTE=M.Ciaster;40454641]anyone else I could recruit?[/QUOTE] You, Zulu, Vano, Strider, Sokolov.

I seem to experience FPS lag in CoP, whereas in the other two, I'm fine? I haven't noticed significantly improved textures or anything. What gives? Also, I just played Clear Sky for the first time today. It's actually a lot better than I expected, though the faction wars thing seems a bit hectic at times.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40454693]You, Zulu, Vano, Strider, Sokolov.[/QUOTE] Alright then, will go looking for Zulu and Strider.

I thought about it and I really want to add a stalker into the game with the face of Mr. Bean, I would love for a player to stumble across him in some hidden alcove in the middle of the night.

Can anyone remind me of the technical reasons for female stalkers being impossible? I always felt like there should be a few around that manage to hold their own, but there was some sort of engine limitation preventing them?

Every attempt so far just uses the same bones that males do so they come out warped with messed up proportions.

[QUOTE=NeoSeeker;40451382]in redux when you load your own magazines can you stagger normal rounds with tracer rounds? like 1 out of every 5 bullets is a tracer?[/QUOTE] I wish. Unfortunately not, engine limitations. [QUOTE=teh pirate;40454861]Can anyone remind me of the technical reasons for female stalkers being impossible? I always felt like there should be a few around that manage to hold their own, but there was some sort of engine limitation preventing them?[/QUOTE] It's not impossible, but they would need new models, skeletons, rigging and animations. It's a lot of work for not much reward since there would be so few uses.

That sounds more reasonable. Isn't it possible to change the default rig? Maybe a more unisex rig could be devised. [editline]28th April 2013[/editline] Oh that was in response to Spekter

Beacon you bastard I've been waiting for you all day. Why do you sleep so much??

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40455074]Beacon you bastard I've been waiting for you all day. Why do you sleep so much??[/QUOTE] I've been out paintballing since 8am brah, sorry! I am so fucking tired!

Oh right, the paintball.. I forgot. Sorry, thought you would fed up with me because of the last chat session.

what happened in the last chat session? :/ but yeah been out all day

So today, I tried to install Doom's SOC mod merge, but when I start up Stalker, it just crashes. The CTRL+V is : Expression : ovi->channels==1 Function : CSoundRender_Source::LoadWave File : E:\stalker\sources\trunk\xrSound\SoundRender_Source_loader.cpp Line : 71 Description : Invalid source num channels: Arguments : c:\program files (x86)\thq\s.t.a.l.k.e.r. - shadow of chernobyl\gamedata\sounds\ambient\rain.ogg Could somebody help me with this, please? [B]EDIT:[/B] Nevermind, I'll just try a fresh install again. [B]EDIT:[/B] So it turns out that I was trying to install the CoP merge on my SoC install. :v:

Oh Riki, TF needs a button icon for the system we recently gave him, 16x16 or 28x28, up and down would be awesome if you could do that mate? :)

[QUOTE=Beacon;40455052] It's not impossible, but they would need new models, skeletons, rigging and animations. It's a lot of work for not much reward since there would be so few uses.[/QUOTE] But then the folks who make cosmetic mods for other games, would focus on Stalker due to the female models, then comes the sex mods and supreme bikini armor.

Is People Soup really as bad as I hear it is?

[QUOTE=zeldar;40457258]Is People Soup really as bad as I hear it is?[/QUOTE] Did I ever tell you the definition of Russian Insanity?

[QUOTE=zeldar;40457258]Is People Soup really as bad as I hear it is?[/QUOTE] Yes. Especially about how the loading times go from ~40 seconds for a new level to ~5 minutes.

I love people soup :( It's fucking crazy and load times arent that bad. (I wont try it on my SSD though, it's way too big)

[QUOTE=zeldar;40457258]Is People Soup really as bad as I hear it is?[/QUOTE] It puts western content mashups to shame and then some.

[QUOTE=Beacon;40455141]I've been out paintballing since 8am brah, sorry! I am so fucking tired![/QUOTE] You went paintballing? How much pain are you in?

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;40457309]Yes. Especially about how the loading times go from ~40 seconds for a new level to ~5 minutes.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=DigitalySane;40457485]It puts western content mashups to shame and then some.[/QUOTE] So what are the recommended mashups that add as much content but are actually stable/polished?

[QUOTE=zeldar;40458505]So what are the recommended mashups that add as much content but are actually stable/polished?[/QUOTE] Good mashups? Dooms mod merge aka FreeLurk and StalkerSoup(Western Variant of People Soup) uhhhh that's about it for mashups.

[QUOTE=zeldar;40458505]So what are the recommended mashups that add as much content but are actually stable/polished?[/QUOTE] OGSE? It's like People Soup but a bit less crazy and really fast load times.

I can vouch that OGSE is one of the best stalker experiences I've had. I can't wait for the next release.

[QUOTE=Kirovich;40458776]I can vouch that OGSE is one of the best stalker experiences I've had. I can't wait for the next release.[/QUOTE] i tried it once, got out of the bunker then suddenly a chopper gunned me down

I was really enjoying OGSE until I got to the first lab, and then as soon as I tried to open the first code-locked door the game would crash every time. I was really bummed out by that, it's a great mod.

Installed misery for the first time somebody help I'm scared what do I
