I only use them in mods that let you sprint with them.
[QUOTE=Gatekeeper828;40926430]Does anybody know if there is an English version of that mod for download somewhere?[/QUOTE]

thats how ALL my terrain shows up , just a grey texture with some scratches on
I wouldn't install Stalker-Soup, Laggy atleast for me, long load times, At the start I had to see a doctor or some shit so I could trade stuff.
So I just downloaded AMK again and am now happy.

DMM is a freeplay mod - it removes the story but allows you to create your own character and start the game within a faction you choose and do some sidequest-level quests for your faction leader. The A-Life is freed up a ton - you can encounter Duty guys at Agroprom or zombies at the Army Warehouses and NPCs will make use of the added level changers as well, contributing to a very unpredictable A-Life. DMM uses LURK's weapon models and animations and the gunplay in general is basically the same as in LURK - very deadly on both sides though in DMM it's a bit less deadly. DMM is a very nice mod if you just want to fuck around in the Zone and do your own thing. The mod's freedom and lack of direction may not entertain infinitely, however I think DMM is perfect for one-life runs because there's little to no "drag" in the start and you don't have to go through the whole save nimble, get Agroprom documents and all that jazz so coming up with different self-imposed challenges and goals for a one-life run introduces some forms of goals into the whole deal.
For LURK itself... well, I would say that L.U.R.K.'s most notable feature are the good quality weapon models and animations that are almost perfectly consistent in both style and quality, something very rare in the realm of STALKER mods. Combat is extremely deadly and the inventory limitations make stamina management very important.

my people soup stream was better, but this was the highlight of the hilariously bad paradise lost stream
Wow, the bloodsucker has sounds from RTCW. What the fuck is with the bloom?
[QUOTE=PaChIrA;40931070]Wow, the bloodsucker has sounds from RTCW. What the fuck is with the bloom?[/QUOTE]Apparently it wasn't supposed to look like that but it kind of added to how hilariously weird/bad the mod was.
i'm actually *trying* to play Paradise Lost but i get an "Failed to start game (app already running) error" if i have it installed
do i have to run STALKER via ver 1.004, or is it something else
[B]edit:[/B]
i'll try a full reinstall

Make sure to delete your stalker-shoc folder in My Documents and shit too, especially if you were running other mods before
In other news, the Soup ate my saves
fuck you game, but when I stream again, I'm doing it on the hardest difficulty. I CAN BE A MAN TOO.

People Soup has alright loading times until you get farther in... by the time I get to the Bar it takes ~5 minutes to load a new area, compared to the 40 seconds or so it takes on a new game.

From anyone who tries paradise lost, this is something you should expect from trying to use a vehicle

seriously though, I don't know what to make of Paradise Lost. Besides the hilarious amount of bloom (which was probably unintentional), it's kind of weird and the Bloodsucker Village must be hell with how broken they are to fight. That video didn't show it, but I didn't even end up killing it. It took down 4 soldiers after I had hit it with [b]5 grenades[/b] and several magazines from the AK. Eventually one of them got it and then I ate a grenade.

You need to have your cam_inert value down lower and then the camera won't do that I think, it's not supposed to. The bloodsuckers are harder in that mod though, the point was to re-enable a cut feature of the bloodsucker which was to grab onto the player and suck his blood(duh).
[QUOTE=PaChIrA;40931070]Wow, the bloodsucker has sounds from RTCW. What the fuck is with the bloom?[/QUOTE]
RTCW? Also the reason for those sounds is that they were used as bloodsucker sounds in all the leaked builds of stalker.

All I know is that they recommend 1.0006 but 1.0005 should work too.

Also to anyone having that graphics bug in Paradise Lost, if you read the readme you'd know how to fix it :v:
You're supposed to launch the game, load a save, change the graphics quality setting(ie, put it on any other setting other than the one you want to use), then hit ok and return to game, then go back into the menu and change the graphics quality back to the setting you want, then save the settings, quit and restart the game. That should fix the ridiculous bloom and over brightness.
RTCW is Return to Castle Wolfenstein
i've been playing paradise lost and i just play it in static lighting
mods based on the other builds just feel better via render r1
i'll probably play lost alpha always on r1

this is what happens when you divide by zero in the zone.
edit: i love how this is like the third time i've been drained of my rubles in clear sky.
they just loooove to rob me blind.
first it was those bandits at the beginning of the garbage, then it was the overpriced freedom jew trader, and then those two bandits who knocked me out. fantastic.
at least i ended soc with over 50k.
