The launcher for the STALKER coop mod
[QUOTE=Mezzokoko;48186514]Logged in perfectly, updating as we speak. In order to update, press "ИГРАТь" (play) and "ОБНОВИТь СЕЙЧАС" (refurbish today (???)) to start updating. It is also veeeeery slow, but should go faster than the first link.[/QUOTE]
I should remind that before clicking update check settings for the folder it updates in. At worst it might overwrite on top of your Call of Pripyat install if it's in default folder.
If you don't want that to happen. Create a new folder for Ray of hope and point it there.
Download is stuck at 3% on my end, did anyone finish it yet?
YES it works now
Now i just gotta figure out what buttons do what
mine's downloaded but I have no idea how to connect to a server or anything
Chance anyone can mirror the files to somewhere? The torrent is really slow.
Fuck its at 2% after an hour
To play once downloaded:
Run game
Go to multiplayer
Select [B]local/lan[/B] game (second option)
Write nick
Press ok and wait for it to load (takes some time)

I was going to upload files to mega, but it told me to fuck off, by giving me upload speed of 50kb/s.

b..b..but muh cyrillic skills :(
Hang on i will try to make a picture guide what to press.
(Look at my later post)
we all know how this will end up.
As shown by DayZ, in the long run, all players degenerate into a state of madness in which they kill-on-sight and don't give a fuck about cooperating with strangers.
Now, given this is the perfect game for that , that effect will be completely amplified. Expect heavy cheeki breeki levels.
[B]---Download---[/B]
1. Launcher files. (I think it uses p2p to download).

2. Whole game from russian filehost:
[url]https://yadi.sk/d/KaysAWrWhpGvn[/url]
(Which is fine tho. I'm getting around 2-3mb/s, now it's probably limited to 64kb/s)
3. A torrent file that launcher uses (it's basically delta patcher using p2p torrent download/upload):

You possibly need to update net framework 4.5:
[url]http://www.microsoft.com/ru-RU/download/details.aspx?id=40779[/url]
If you can't login or don't have a profile created:
Login - RoHTester
Pass - RoHTester
If you have graphical gliches make sure you absolutely use [B]higher lighting quality than static[/B].
If game is laggy, try to close launcher while playing. It is p2p and shares your files to others when needed.

Hopefully this is enough to let you try it out.
As i said tho, it's basically a big map in a team deathmatch environment.
There is still money and looting already, you can sell what you loot and even if you die you retain some of the money you had, rest of it is given to whoever looted you. (Yes you get their money for looting dead)
Torrent is quite fast atm, got 1-2 mbps. Leach and seed while oyu can.
So what is this Co-Op mod? Is it like, exploring, finding weapons on the ground/money?
Is it just RDM?
You can play private coop with friends, but you can also host large freeplay sessions with lots of players. Also the entire map is merged, so there isnt any loading times. I bet there will be many kinds of servers with different approaches and focus once the mod is properly released.

Here's a FAQ for it

Considering I'm apart of the international team, I'll try and let you guys know if there are any updates. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll try and answer them to the best of my knowledge.

Atm it's mostly rdm since so far they only gave us the chunk of world map.
[editline]13th July 2015[/editline]
It's still worth checking how progress is done.
Fellow stalkers, we should meet in a ts and dominate the zone together.
Are there weapons lying about?
Also wtf still 2% after almost 2h

[QUOTE=Bloodshot12;48188591]Are there weapons lying about?

Since its currently team deathmatch gamemode you can simply buy weapons.
You unlock better gear by playing and killing enemies in it.
I'm hangin' out in Server 2.
Can someone post a good download link here?
[QUOTE=Shirky;48189200]Can someone post a good download link here?[/QUOTE]
the link Creec posted earlier is going at a decent speed [url]http://www.stalker-roh.ru/lanch/paths/path.torrent[/url]
So the map in the test is apparently a merged darkscape and Clear Sky's Cordon, I think. Lots of little additions and changes, too.
