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

[QUOTE=Bucketboy;44661701]Am i doing something wrong?[/QUOTE] Did you get [sp]the flash drive ? [/sp]

got a mission to kill some zombies in a tunnel, offed 'em, found a door and behind it... a whole new goddamn bunker complex! wandered around the place for a while, then got a psi storm warning... so I tore ass outta there to the nearest shelter. then, while trying to wait out the storm, I got bored and started mucking around with the PDA and, well, looks like the conversations tab stack_traces the game damn

i'm getting this crash when i try to go to rostok. is anyone else getting it? i'm using the r1 renderer for nostalgic reasons Expression : fatal error Function : CBlender_default::Compile File : BlenderDefault.cpp Line : 62 Description : <no expression> Arguments : Not enought textures for shader, base tex: ston\ston_bort_j01

[QUOTE=Muukkis;44661775]Did you get [sp]the flash drive ? [/sp][/QUOTE] Objective says to get out but the stash part is not completed ( For some reason ) Also where can i find it?

Okay, I managed to solve the silent crashing problem. I think it was caused by the changed controls. I deleted my user.ltx, changed graphics settings, no problem, changed key bindings, quit to desktop without a word.

[QUOTE=Bucketboy;44661854]Also where can i find it?[/QUOTE] [sp]One of the ventilation ducts at the lower hallway middle rooms, it's in that one room where the cart is unmovable, you have to jump on it and look at the ventilation, where bars are broken.[/sp] Combined my advice with gudman's from the last page.

I wouldn't ask for a repair from Colonel Petrenko, he will crash your shit right up. [sp]The new design of the BAR area is so fucking weird, you have to take a massive loop-hole to get around it all.[/sp]

In all the Lost Alpha excitement of the last month, I somehow overlooked Shoker Weapon Mod releasing on [URL="http://www.moddb.com/mods/shoker-weapon-mod"]moddb[/URL], negating the need for yandex. 2.1's all kinds of sweet.

The map needs recompiled to fix it. So just use DX9 or DX10. They won't fix AI. Who is going to do it? You know all their scripters left years ago. But it's probably just bad config values. Replace them with vanilla or something. Maybe some Russian will fix it.

A few times they did surprise me, but other than that... it almost feels like actor suddenly appears invisible for short periods of time

Can anyone else NOT access the "LA Options" menu item while in game? It doesn't do anything for me.

So how do you install LA anyway? I installed all 4 parts, and ran the setup and it just crashes every time i try to launch the game. [img]http://puu.sh/8qg8Q.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Camwi_003;44662150]Can anyone else NOT access the "LA Options" menu item while in game? It doesn't do anything for me.[/QUOTE] It's their debug menu. You aren't supposed to be able to.

Stalker engine is old tech and newer OS silently fail some I/O operations if they are suspicious. EDIT: also delete user.ltx it's probably old from who ever played/packed up the build and specific to their machine.

I don't get how they release it with saved games not even working. I'll wait for a patch

[QUOTE=Whyt546;44662204]Not in program files folder, and running as admin doesn't help. Neither does deleting user.ltx[/QUOTE] Are you running specifically bin\xrEngine.exe at elevated privileges?

[img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/NcsCY28.jpg[/img_thumb] thank you devs for trapping the road you take your vehicles on at the bar also, yes that is a btr, yes it can shoot, and it costs 500k rubles

[QUOTE=alundaio;44662269]It appears the installer doesn't work correctly if you install on a separate drive than C:[/QUOTE] If the game doesn't run after installing, remove it, and re-install in a different folder e.g.(D:/Games/). Also, just to be sure, when it wants to install the DirectX files, put them in the root folder of the game.

[QUOTE=Whyt546;44662236]Yup. [t]http://puu.sh/8qgRE.png[/t][/QUOTE] Create a shortcut, and remove \bin from the start in location, then run as admin. It's a small problem with every other stalker game, not sure if they fixed it in this one.

It isn't in my options that I see. How would I enable that Dev Menu anyway?

Game options with the difficulty and crosshair stuff, it's a toggle, you switch between legs and player shadow So in the bar if you try to repair your weapon at the guy in the back room it crashes. Anybody know what to do?

[QUOTE=Camwi_003;44662480]So how are you supposed to disable Actor Legs? It isn't in my options that I see. How would I enable that Dev Menu anyway?[/QUOTE] The option for player shadows seems to alternate between that and Actor Legs. I think if the light is off then legs are off, if it's on then legs are on.
