I would not be surprised if it was stalker that killed my 9800gt. But doesn't matter. It was 4 years old and I upgraded to the sexier 670gtx.

[QUOTE=LoNer1;46974424]I think I didn't explain this properly, so any missing information on your guy's side is my fault;

Vanilla+ will [I][B]not [/B][/I]be a gameplay addon, meaning [B][I]yes[/I][/B] there will be new weapon models for [U]existing[/U] ones, but no [U]all-new[/U] weapons.

[I]All extra weapons are part of one of the many addons included within Vanilla+[/I], much like you can configure ZRP to be modular and unique.

Plus, from a gameplay perspective, this weapon wont surface until the very late game (from Pripyat and further). I decided to make it an unique end-game weapon. Same goes for the rest of the unique / new high-tier weapons (like the unique L96a1). I am going to think this out, before adding in those weapons to the main game and it's characters. Dont want any other bandit running around with a scoped TOZ, or a friggin ak12 :v:. If I think about it, many of the new guns are uniques, with the exception of the MP443.[/QUOTE]

Good call. Having addons with new stuff will be good for people who have played STALKER so many times that they don't really need it to be too close to the base game anymore; then you'll have series veterans and newbies playing your mod.

So what's the current popular weapon model/animation replacement pack for SoC?
Friend's playing through SoC for the first time and he's bitching up a storm about the weapon models :v:

Tell him to do better. If he can't tell him to stop being a prissy little bitch.

[Lyokanthrope]

eh I'm just gonna set him up with ZRP + PRZ2 + SRAP + maybe a weather mod
that should be good, yeah?

[AlvyP]

How fucking long have I been gone? Come back and there's like 3 new mods for STALKER.

with the source code release, we've really entered the golden age of CoP modding

[B]Watcha looking at, punk?[/B] - Vanilla+

[I]No, I won't spam, I promise.[/I] Just a question; Military with silenced weapons, yes or no? As it stands, they're a formidable enemy in the start of the game. You wont get access to any good weaponry as ye olde SHoC didn't have the same memorable stashes CoP does. The silencers actually [I]work[/I], meaning past 20 or so meters, you wont hear them. I will leave in the hit detection because that's out of something I'd call a 'weapons addon' (maybe make that an addon, too?), but the game is pretty damn challenging, even with my exo (85% bullet protection).

Let me know!

[Beacon]

I'd say only give silencers to specialised milstalkers/spetsnaz, which those guys definitely aren't, but that's my opinion

[QUOTE=Beacon;46980852]I'd say only give silencers to specialised milstalkers/spetsnaz, which those guys definitely aren't, but that's my opinion[/QUOTE]

Yeah, Standard run-of-the-mill grunts with silencers is kinda odd.

Or wait until the player is at certain % progress.

When people say something like this...I can't help but think about Age of Empires, like the whole "You advanced to another era!" sounds and the upgrading of units and buildings graphics.

Yeah.

Giving them suppressors doesn't make a whole lot of sense - they're a defensive force, and everyone already knows what positions they're holding - stealth and surprise don't really give them any advantage.

I will say, it does look a bit odd with the incredibly worn AK-74 and the pristine suppressor.

I got a 260 gtx for free back then so I didn't complain :v:

Started playing Clear Sky and it seems like the framerate is capped at 60fps. Vsync is not on and there is a good amount of input lag with the mouse movement. Is there a fix for this?
I also manually disabled vsync through the nvidia control panel but that causes the game to crash before I can even reach the menu.

The video of it was posted in the last thread. It looks amazing

[QUOTE=Beacon;46980512]with the source code release, we've really entered the golden age of CoP modding[/QUOTE]

I've noticed how it seemed to be building up for that lately.

I guess that's what happens when the sequel doesn't show up for so long, and we probably still have a couple of years before [sp]the inevitable[/sp] stalker 2 release.

[BloodShot12]

Oh shit

Vanilla+ beta when?

Also are those proper spec maps in ShoC i see?

[QUOTE=Beacon;46980852]I'd say only give silencers to specialised milstalkers/spetsnaz, which those guys definitely aren't, but that's my opinion[/QUOTE]

Totally agree with this, it fits them better than standard soldiers IMO

[Sax]

Does anyone know what the config file for the MP412 revolver in AO is called? It's not called rex or MP412. For some reason it doesn't have any upgrades, and I wanted to give it the same upgrades as the Desert Eagle.

Nevermind, solved it. It is in the Deagle's weapon config..
