[QUOTE=Beacon;48880341]play vanilla first time with ZRP, don't use any proper mods[/QUOTE] Play vanilla with no patches. Like I did when I got the game in 2007 :v:

The psi-psuedo dog army made me lag like a bitch though. :v:

Obviously there are jocks in the zone. While else was he in a locker?

[QUOTE=purvisdavid1;48880329]Maybe back to steam to refund it for Call of Pripyat :v: Though in all seriousness, there's good mods for Shadow of Chernobyl still. Just look on the front page.[/QUOTE] I still enjoy SoC more than CoP. It just feels way better with the denser interesting maps, non-tracer laser show guns, actual grass

idk, I enjoy the feeling of movement more in SoC and the headbob (i usually scale it back a bit), and the gunplay too. I think its because CoP has that annoying feature when you strafe that offsets your gun while aiming

[QUOTE=Amez;48880570]I'll never forget Clear Sky day one with no patches[/QUOTE] Yes. Red Forest was amazing.

Are there any good weapon mods for Call of Chernobyl?

[QUOTE=purvisdavid1;48880959]Are there any good weapon mods for Call of Chernobyl?[/QUOTE] 3, to be precise. OWR, STCSWP and AO3

THE MASTER COC HUB: [url]https://mega.nz/#F!UpIFQAaS!azP78S8xIqsmRoZV3BOHkg[/url]

STCSWP+CoC release build doesn't seem to want to download, I've tried for half a day now

[QUOTE=Beacon;48880341]play vanilla first time with ZRP, don't use any proper mods[/QUOTE] Thanks! Bug fixes are always good.

Any way to run CoC so steam overlay works? It stops detecting it through startup.

Anyone else get input lag/slowdown in CoC? Seems to happen frequently in Darkscape and Dark Valley. Anyone know how to fix that?

[QUOTE=Dougley;48881742]Any way to run CoC so steam overlay works? It stops detecting it through startup.[/QUOTE] The way I went about it was running steam as admin. You might get annoying security popups every time you run a game to elevate the process but the overlay works perfectly then.

[QUOTE=purvisdavid1;48880521]Play vanilla with no patches. Like I did when I got the game in 2007 :v:[/QUOTE] Oh God, SoC with no patches. Didn't it have a horrible save bug or something among other things? I remember playing it briefly unpatched back when it came out, but maybe I repressed the memory.

iirc SoC without patches also had no fps cap on the main menu this meant that the menu would be running at like some ridiculously high fps and if you left it on long enough then it melted a hole in your computer

[QUOTE=cdr248;48883077]iirc SoC without patches also had no fps cap on the main menu this meant that the menu would be running at like some ridiculously high fps and if you left it on long enough then it melted a hole in your computer[/QUOTE] Pretty sure it did this when patched as well. IIRC my FRAPS framerate always shot into the 5000's whenever I paused, along with my GPU fan spinning up too.

I remember that the retail CS got delayed an extra week on release day, then when I finally got the game, I had to restart several hours in because the new patch broke saves but fixed the issue with suits not upgrading

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;48881104]STCSWP+CoC release build doesn't seem to want to download, I've tried for half a day now[/QUOTE] reinstall everything properly

hide weapon when using meds and shit.rar breaks inventory icons in CoC, [URL="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/32849856/hide%20weapon%20when%20using%20meds%20and%20shit.zip"]I fixed it[/URL]

Bring a little bit of Chernobyl home to you!

[QUOTE=Lyokanthrope;48879294]The only thing I really want from CoC right now is a guide system to get between levels quicker (ala Clear Sky) with a random encounter system for you and your squadmates (Ala TFW for Clear Sky)[/QUOTE] So, why don't you just play CS with TFW then ? ;)

[QUOTE=Tasowy;48883268]So, why don't you just play CS with TFW then ? ;)[/QUOTE] death is preferred over playing clear sky

I honestly dont see any reason to play CS other than to try RtL

[QUOTE=LoNer1;48883844]I honestly dont see any reason to play CS other than to try RtL[/QUOTE] Why not with Complete :downs:

[QUOTE=Leon;48883136]reinstall everything properly[/QUOTE] What does that even mean? I can't install something if I can't get the files to download. Everything else downloads except that one.

So I'm in the hospital at the moment, and used remote desktop into my computer home, I noticed that I had forgot to turn off my Call of Chernobyl torrent and my ratio is soon 25. Uploaded 82GB, but for the sake of STALKER modding I'll leave it on anyway. I've been trying out AO3 after a bit of a break, and damn the TOZ is god damn sexy to use. It's hard to stop using it, but I've gone over to the Saiga now. Shame I can't play now, but I guess it gives time for the AO3 plugin for CoC to come out.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;48884091]What does that even mean? I can't install something if I can't get the files to download. Everything else downloads except that one.[/QUOTE] I've been having trouble downloading it as well. I'd just go with OWR, but I played a lot with that in the older CoC version and I want to try some new weapons.
