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

I don't know if it has this option but Milkshape3D seems like a good choice. [I]I would suggest[/I] getting Maya or 3DS though, those are also available for free .. if you know what I mean [sp]yarr :v:[/sp]

Maya 2010 is the most reliable with working plugins that we've found so far [editline]2nd December 2013[/editline] what are you modeling?

You just have to be a student, and Autodesk have a pretty broad definition of student. As far as I know Maya is the go-to problem for level design. Ask Beacon, he's better at this shit than I am.

[QUOTE=Beacon;43049078]Maya 2010 is the most reliable with working plugins that we've found so far [editline]2nd December 2013[/editline] what are you modeling?[/QUOTE] Probably just wanna test out level design for CoP to see if it is interesting. Nothing in particular currently, I just like trying out new things really. I still have a version of 3ds Max around on my comp that still works if that counts for anything.

You can get a 3 year student license for 3DS you know.

[QUOTE=Thomo_UK;43049189]You can get a 3 year student license for 3DS you know.[/QUOTE] That is currently what I have; not sure if 3DS works for STALKER level design though.

He made some really cool stuff for Stalker, but quit in the end because level design in X-Ray is [I]incredibly frustrating[/I]. If you'd like, I can ask him if he'd give you some tips.

[QUOTE=Thomo_UK;43049189]You can get a 3 year student license for 3DS you know.[/QUOTE] I'm almost past that. I still remember using 3DS 2009 ... Recreated Reactor 1 (iirc) after a years work or something. I did sign up for 3DS Max 2014 but I reckon ill get kicked off the student program soon.

the problem with the student licenses is you can only get the up to date software which doesn't have stalker plugins, or bad ones if it does. the modeler is TonyStalker, loner.

[QUOTE=Beacon;43049304]the problem with the student licenses is you can only get the up to date software which doesn't have stalker plugins, or bad ones if it does. the modeler is TonyStalker, loner.[/QUOTE] Indeed. I lay off working on 3D for stalker as it's off no use really. I am more focussing on stuff like CE nowadays :v: Maybe one day ill hit you up on Skype beac, if i feel like I'm ready for that one idea you had with CE. And I don't know him. I do know I asked another modeller if he could help you out (the one I linked you) but he suddenly disappeared.

sounds good mate, would be a fun project

Do NPCs in CoP make an active attempt to avoid anomalies even if they are on the AI map?

I just so happened to find an almost 4,5 years old comment I made on moddb which (unlike never before) made me cringe [B]!!!!!!!!!!FAIR WARNING. [U][I]VERY[/I][/U] CRINGE WORTHY!!!!!!!!!![/B] [QUOTE] OMG!!!! NO words for that STALKER CL2012!!! looks amazing wow great jons i just have no words for it!!! waiting until that mod comes out!!! hehe kinda funny, when is CoP complete 2010 released? You have all games, me 2 and i am only missing that one, CS Cl is cool too[/QUOTE] Translation to my proper now-a-days English; [QUOTE] Wow, no words! STALKER Complete 2012! Looks amazing :) Really, great job, I practically have no words for it. I can't wait till it comes out / releases! Pretty funny, but when will you release CoP Complete 2010? You've made Complete for all 3 games, and I have all 3 so I'm only missing that one. Complete for Clear Sky is pretty cool, too.[/QUOTE] :v:

that first english version my sides.

[QUOTE=Gatekeeper828;43050226]Do NPCs in CoP make an active attempt to avoid anomalies even if they are on the AI map?[/QUOTE] no, and anomalies do not affect stalkers in CoP

Well, y'know, I started from English swearwords at the age of 6. It's only natural that we improve but...that is kind of funny.

[QUOTE=Gatekeeper828;43050226]Do NPCs in CoP make an active attempt to avoid anomalies even if they are on the AI map?[/QUOTE] In CoP, anomalies don't affect NPCs. They won't actively try to evade them, but their pre-programmed paths don't generally take them through anomalies.

Can i combine LURK with somthing like Atmosfear for nicer looking stalking

[QUOTE=Etcetera;43053120]In CoP, anomalies don't affect NPCs. They won't actively try to evade them, but their pre-programmed paths don't generally take them through anomalies.[/QUOTE] Too bad they didn't do this for Kruglov in SoC. Just runs right through those burner anomalies like nobody's business.

[QUOTE=MadBomber;43055210]Can i combine LURK with somthing like Atmosfear for nicer looking stalking[/QUOTE] Not really because AF was made for Clear Sky (which got cancelled for some reason) and CoP. So, in theory you could port the sky textures but you'd need to rebuild the weather and lighting from the ground up. Also, you wouldn't have the same fog as you'd have in CS AF2 or CoP AF3 because the fog in Shoc differs from the one in the latter ones. You could try porting the weather of AA2 into it, but that's more suited to the dark and gritty environment it's in so .. yeah :v:

oh lawd :v: So true doe [t]https://scontent-b-ams.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1471326_457885237649140_882275768_n.jpg[/t] edit damn automerge why you no merge within 24 instead 2 hours.

that surname tho

So, I wanted to see how it would have looked like if I tried to port the old Sidorovich model and texture into Clear Sky: [url=http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/510080ssremnant120313183510escape.jpg][img]http://tof.canardpc.com/preview2/9b27b3e8-074b-4264-ab44-9a02d137d675.jpg[/img][/url] [url=http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/376771ssremnant120313183515escape.jpg][img]http://tof.canardpc.com/preview2/963297c1-a649-456b-a51f-6c91df4554ae.jpg[/img][/url] I have mixed feelings about the result.

[QUOTE=bloboo;43060168]Playing CoP, got an exoskeleton suit and I don't know if I should get thermal or electrical protection.[/QUOTE] I personally would go with electrical protection but that is because I tend to do the throw bolt and run through electro trick. Fire anomalies don't do much from my experience and they can usually easily be avoided, especially in CoP.

[QUOTE=Araknid;43042682]Really not liking how unnecessarily fucking loud the footsteps are[/QUOTE]is that just a fancy demonstration or actual gameplay?

[QUOTE=RazorsharpLT;43060268]is that just a fancy demonstration or actual gameplay?[/QUOTE] Actual in-game gameplay. The animation sequence is triggered by a script upon spawning I guess
