[QUOTE=Etcetera;42674089]Chromatic aberrations are the sign of NEXT GEN GRAPHICS![/QUOTE] The sign of fucking ugliness, more like.

Chromatic aberration AKA [B][I][U]CAMERA EYESSSSS [/U][/I][/B]At this rate the STALKER gray and fog filter would make for a better visual aesthetic.

it's so weird how individual the Stalker feeling really is

[QUOTE=Beacon;42675344]it's so weird how individual the Stalker feeling really is[/QUOTE] True. I personally [B][I]detest[/I][/B] anyone who compares it with lets say titles like [I]Fallout[/I], Metro (has it's own vibe as well) and I've even seen people compare it with Far Cry (I wouldn't know why. Maybe because of the world? I really don't get some people) It's unique. That's why I keep coming back to it. I've always thought that after a few years I'd be done with it but truth to be told, nope. I always keep coming back. For the vibe, mods, community and just the game itself! I raise my glass of Vodka to you gents, for keeping our game alive and well!

When you say you can't run the latest SDK, do you mean the CoP one?

No, I mean the newest version of CryEngine (3.5.4) with gamecode. It's tasty, because you're (now) able to fully modify the engine to your liking (with the exception of base shader code, because Crytek doesn't want to give us a Shader Editor like UDK4 will have for some reason) And I can run all STALKER editors :) I've made both a virtual machine for that as I have a partition with just Windows XP for the editors.

Stalker feeling, you say...

Which mod / mods are that?

CS Reloaded + Valley of Whispers (last screen).

Anyone know what Kingo's Mod Merge does/what version of SoC it's for? Some guy on /vg/ is curious.

Metro could almost even be seen as a sort of spiritual successor to stalker, seeing as how 4A's studio is made of ex-GSC employees.

[QUOTE=Etcetera;42676302]Anyone know what Kingo's Mod Merge does/what version of SoC it's for? Some guy on /vg/ is curious.[/QUOTE] Pretty sure it's a OL, AMK and Lurk merge and there may be other stuff, but I'm not 100% on that. IT should work with 1.0005/6.

Well, in Instincts Predator at least, AKA the best FarCry game there is. [editline]28th October 2013[/editline] FarCry also put me on the path of conservative Darwinian thought. It's amazing like that.

Man fuck Misery. I'm gonna try AMK for COP I guess and wait for more adjustments to Misery.

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;42677018]AMK for COP[/QUOTE] lol

[QUOTE=Hammer7;42677087]lol[/QUOTE] Guessing it's not very good then?

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;42677094]Guessing it's not very good then?[/QUOTE] Better - it doesn't exist.

[QUOTE=Hammer7;42677237]Better - it doesn't exist.[/QUOTE] Actually... it does. It was just scrapped mid part in the making. And then worked on by David.me for like 5-6 months or so. And released. [editline]28th October 2013[/editline] Unless my main menu is lying to me. [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/866108446397632095/CFB9A7ACEAA441CCFB99AD327D475E85918349A5/[/t]

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;42677018]Man fuck Misery. I'm gonna try AMK for COP I guess and wait for more adjustments to Misery.[/QUOTE] First off, good luck with that. Secondly, patch incoming :) Give it some time. But this is our prime, really. Just you guys wait

I never did understand though, was IP just redone as FC with mutant mode? Seemed like it.

[QUOTE=LoNer1;42677378]First off, good luck with that. Secondly, patch incoming :) Give it some time. But this is our prime, really. Just you guys wait[/QUOTE] Has the ballistics and Economy been tweaked now? :v: [QUOTE=Hammer7;42677424]It has a very few things in it. That's why it's called AMK 0.4.[/QUOTE] This is AMK 2.0 Devolution? I'm confused.

[QUOTE=***zer0***;42658332]Oh damn, i love that breathing / visor effect. Is it toggleable? Cause it would be cool as hell to slap your mask during scavenging / fighting, but annoying to have to listen to in the long run.[/QUOTE] I never touched anything, game just looks like that for me I'm running Misery 2.0.2 the helmet I'm using is that 40k ruble armoured gas mask, I think it's teir 3 It's just immersive stuff, the breathing is heavy in the mask because of the class I used; Sniper. not so good in the closed-headset department. The sound changes with the helmet, take it off and he breathes easier and quieter The visor's default, I have the wide-screen patch for visors and hud Also this is late as hell, so I'll PM it to you

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;42677483]Has the ballistics and Economy been tweaked now? :v:[/QUOTE] To a very large extend, and there's been some more tweaks here and there, plus some addons. You'll see the full patch notes in a couple of weeks *IF* everything goes according to plan

[QUOTE=LoNer1;42678576]To a very large extend, and there's been some more tweaks here and there, plus some addons. You'll see the full patch notes in a couple of weeks *IF* everything goes according to plan[/QUOTE] Then I am VERY much looking forward to it. :v:

I wonder whenever Lurk 1.2 is released, will Doom update his merge for SoC?
