S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: "A Typical Day In The Zone" - Games

[QUOTE=Mezzokoko;49570579]Once you head into Pripyat you are pretty much going to push for the end, you can technically still return as far as I am aware, but I can't really think of any reason why you would. Only once you reach the CNPP itself the game will actually lock you into the level without a chance of returning.[/QUOTE] CNPP is definitely the point of no return. You can continue the game after completing it, but even if you manage to run back through the military (With missile launching choppers) and make it to the entrance, there is no area changer.

Now watch as it ends up like lurk 2.0 with all the nice shit they did just vanishing into the ether

[QUOTE=Bloodshot12;49570830]Now watch as it ends up like lurk 2.0 with all the nice shit they did just vanishing into the ether[/QUOTE] LURK 2.0 barely had anything done tbh besides some guns and config work. As well as some engine experiments based on OGSE's branch of the engine (which was heavily in development at the time) Pretty much all the guns Millenia did were released for FO:NV anyway And Mill was really starting to hate the material system (or lack thereof) in STALKER, which I can definitely understand - we can't really properly control reflections and etc on objects.

[QUOTE=Bloodshot12;49570830]Now watch as it ends up like lurk 2.0 with all the nice shit they did just vanishing into the ether[/QUOTE] Wasn't there a discussion earlier in the thread about how lots of mods bite off more than they can chew and end up dying? We can add Gunslinger to the pile now too unfortunately.

Meanwhile STRIFER is really busy with his new job.

Sin! ушел из разработки, так как не мог продолжать работу над модом по личным причинам...Я переезжаю на новое место по работе, которая будет отнимать очень много времени. Разработка приостановлена на неопределенный срок. Не огорчайтесь, это вовсе не значит, что все кончено. Я вернусь к работе над модом как только смогу. Вас же хочу поблагодарить за добрые слова и всяческую поддержку! Добра Вам и удачной охоты, Сталкеры! А ознакомиться с разработкой подробнее можно тут!" Yandex translated: "Information from the developer STRIFER: Friends, I have not very good news. Sin! left the development because he could not continue working on the mod for personal reasons...I'm moving to a new place for work which will take a very long time. Development suspended indefinitely. Don't worry, this doesn't mean that it's over. I'll be back to work on the mod as soon as I can. You want to thank you for the kind words and full support! Good for You and good hunting, Stalkers! And to see the development of more here!"

I have no doubts that it'll happen sometime in the future. Whether its good or not is another question.

[QUOTE=Wulfram;49576107]I have no doubts that it'll happen sometime in the future. Whether its good or not is another question.[/QUOTE] Originally, it would have sucked. Todays market is way better for stalker than it was around the time it was supposed to come out. It's more pc-centric now, while originally stalker 2 was gonna be dumbed down as fuck for consoles, iirc. Also, nieche appeal is more recognized theese days, and stalker is pretty nieche.

Can somebody explain to me whats the deal with Arsenal Overhaul's new versions? It seems like every time there's a new 3.x version the old one gets removed until its release, but for some reason i always see people crazy hyped about it - but every new version usually has the same weapon models, maybe some new sounds, and a few new weapons/animations. Like, i don't get why he removes old versions and shit? Is it just because he doesn't support them?

E.Nigma is a mysterious creature. He's also removed his Moddb page several times in a row. I really don't get why he lets the trolls of /sg/ get to him.

I'm not one to typically post for help but its a bit important for this. I am sure a few of you are aware of the custom Stalkers I've been posting which will be released as an independent mod and as part of Beacon's WormWood. Decent progress has been made but now that I am attempting to get them in-game I am running into an error right now and I am wondering if anyone can help explain to me what is going on.

[QUOTE=LittleBabyman;49579286]Nothing wrong with that.[/QUOTE] a lot of people would disagree

So I made a wallpaper for a webpage and I really like the outcome of it! Thought I'd share it [IMG]http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/366/365208/profile/isotd_page_background.png[/IMG]

don't let sergei see that he might get motivated to make stalker 2
