Not yet at least. Someone might mod one in.

Is it in CoC at all? If it isn't I might -dbg myself one.

This is honestly the best looking map design I've seen. The part where they 'enter' cordon is amazing. Left me speachless. I recommend you all to just sit this one out. It's breathtaking where STALKER is going.[/QUOTE]

Looks really promising. Cool that after being relatively quiet about progress they suddenly throw a 50min gameplay video.

I think sprint should be nerfed a bit tho in the final version, looks kinda weird with people sprinting so fast.

Is this co-op single player or just really good AI?

It's stalker game remade into single map world online game.

[editline]6th November 2015[/editline]

I'm surprised if there are still people who have not heard of Ray of Hope, but i guess they don't talk much about it outside russian communities.

[WishesForFishes]

Can someone give me a link to that video where a bloodsucker (maybe it was another monster) just comes fucking flying out of nowhere and kills a dude?

[BananaFoam]

So I'm trying to get back into STALKER by playing CoC, but since there isn't a main quest the game feels rather aimless.

Is there a way to reintegrate the faction wars system from Clear Sky? I really want to lead a faction to dominance over the zone.

That video is fucking insane. How the fuck did they merge all those maps together and not cause XRay to shit itself? The game already chugs so hard on existing maps, are they doing optimization in addition to mapping?

[purvisdavid1]

[QUOTE=purvisdavid1;49052291]For a mod of SHOC, that looks amazing.

Also, decided to do a thing to axr_companions

Aptly lead by a stalker called Prophet. We shall cleanse the zone.

Ok so maybe it's not a great idea to lead a 50 strong group because my framerate gets killed, they don't know how to toss grenades or shoot, and... yeah, it's just kinda hilarious.

Imagine a fully working, optimized version of that ^ with Gunslinger on top of it and a completely imported, faithful recreation of ShoC's main quest. :hypeisreal:

[mezzokoko]

You mean a full 100+ server with people trying to disable the scorcher in order to reach the wish granter all on their own. That could be pretty cool if it was difficult enough and people were forced to form alliances and factions themselves.

[Beacon]

ray of hope looking good

let's hope they have stuff in the 'boundary' areas like that tunnel from marsh to cordon or else that's going to be fairly boring

Seems like they had the source long before anyone else did. One guy said "this is the work of builing Xray from top to bottom for 6 years".

Insane. If they nerf running speed, add randomized anomalies, Gunslinger (lawd) and the ability to create own stashes, campfires maybe even populize bases... Damn. And then mixed in with the working NPC ai from what ive seen... 10/10.

[Ajaxial]

So I wanna restart CoC with mods, does anyone have a link to the compatible mods list?

I found one two pages back but for some reason the link to a repo won't open any new page etc.

[B]Vanilla+[/B] coming along nicely. Another optional addon; The adaption of a green variant of the AA2 level files.

[SundayRoast]

I have a seemingly huge problem with Call of Chernobyl and have to ask if it's universal or if it has something to do with using AO3 and ALife Unbalanced:

Something is really, really wrong with the traders.
Sidorovich is nowhere to be found, Barman decides to neglect his job 100% by not having any stuff or money or even being at the bar for that matter. Bandits don't have a trader, apparently loners have no trader either, the Monolith-faction's trader has no money.

:why:

I guess that I'll try re-installing CoC.

[B]Edit:
[/B]Fixed it. But I still get :stack trace: after two in game hours at Cordon, although I've used CFF explorer to allow more than 2 Gigs of ram for the game :why:

Is someone from here owning the Mega-cloud for Call of Chernobyl?

Because its folder for OWR is lacking the arm-meshed mod.

[SundayRoast]

Just realized that the Mega.NZ repository has an outdated version of AO3 for CoC.

[Creec]

I never managed to get anything to work through that repo despite following exact instructions (some instructions did not make sense at all, referring to non-existant things), so i ended up just using moddb files and everything works fine.

Go back a page, it's CoC Arm Meshes.

[editline]8th November 2015[/editline]

That and the AO3 from the repo WILL work, it just needs the patches for it to work properly. It's initial release was a bit buggy but 1.2 is fairly stable.

I just installed AO3 for CoC 1.2.
Now to see if that would work without :stack trace:-galore.

While OWR3 and AO3 are quite similar; AO3 is way better balanced.

[Loner]

I've given myself a handicap; I cant play stalker without AA2 level files anymore. It's too pretty.

A-life unbalance, specifically the faction wars addon does that. I think its because it makes those essential characters killable/replacable so those bases can be fully taken over by other factions. But it breaks their roles at the same time and they can get replaced by generic npc's on game start.

I remember playing as Clear Sky and having the Doctor wander around the front of the base, still offering his healing services but having no inventory. :v:

[Thomo_UK]

Same thing happened to me when I started.

Still not sure where Sid is but I haven't found his body yet, oddly enough the Clear Sky base is fine and nothing has changed.

[Grenadiac]

The call of chernobyl updater is broken as fuck, twice in a row completely locked up my computer, bluescreened it the first time but I was able to kill it the second time.

Yeah don't use the updater.

I ran it and for some reason it decided to go through the unpacked gamedata folders...

Like come on guys it's not supposed to be updating in there.
