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

Yeah I find snorks to be one of the creepiest enemies from how they look, but they have the absolute worst attacks and sounds and behave like a fucking tiger or something. I wish they acted much different and only spawned in specific locations. When I first started playing STALKER and knew nothing about it, I was always scared to go into buildings because I though snorks would be hiding in them waiting to scare the shit out of me.

[QUOTE=Tureis;48505911]So what ever happened to TFW for Clear Sky, did development for it just cease after a while?[/QUOTE] The mod's author pops up on the GSC forums but quite rarely nowadays. He has not dropped the mod yet and wants to do some engine changes (he posted about modifying NPC field of view, for an example).

Anyone remember how to re-enable upgrades in Redux? iirc you just had to edit an .ltx file or something like that

I never understood the logic behind Cardan and Nitro being unable to fix up suits with all the artifact containers and similar stuff before getting the calibration kits. "Hey Cardan, you know that extra artifact container you fixed me up with earlier?" "Yeah what about it?" "You drunk enough to add another two?" "Uh... no you see I like totally need some special tools to attach another two metal boxes to your suit." "What do you mean you need special tools? Can't you just like take two and use some rigger tape to fix them together?" "Nope." "Hey Putin I mean I Nitro, what about you?" "Sorry too busy plotting and scheming I mean I need calibration tools as well yes." "What the actual f-" I never understood why the Exoskeleton can't fill the same closed-cycle-yadda-thingmabob role of the SEVA either but that's besides the point.

What the fuck. Got home and was ready to try [URL="http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-oblivion-lost-30"]Oblivion Lost 3.0[/URL], go to the download page and see this: [QUOTE]The mod you are trying to view has ceased development and consequently been archived. If you are a member of this mod, can demonstrate that it is being actively developed and will be able to keep this profile up to date with the latest news, images, videos and downloads, please contact us with all details and we will consider its re-activation.[/QUOTE] Weird as I checked it a couple of days ago, then I see this underneath... [QUOTE]The mod site was shut down, because nobody is constructive and 99% of the people don't have the willingness to help with testing and giving me meaningful feedback, but can only say how the mod is bad and bugged. The mod was shared in favour since I was not into modding in the last 5 years, and I even gave support during my vacation time, but nevermind. It will be fixed soon (1-2 weeks from august 21 now...) but it won't be posted here. I will share it with my friends only.[/QUOTE] Not tried it and didn't really read much into if before so i'm wondering if the mod was really a piece of shit or the author/creator is very thin-skinned, or possibly a bit of both. The comment section is also a massive fuck-fest. Either way, I need a new mod for SHoC now, wanted to play with Vanilla+ but fuck knows when that's going to be finished. Any recommendation?

I don't think you can go wrong with AMK, it was my go-to mod years ago and after all these years, it still is.

I was thinking about playing it with ZRP (been a good few years since i've played it vanilla) and this is the only AMK mod i've found, is it the right one? Looks outdated (patch 1.005). [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/amk-sidorovich-edition[/url]

I'm playing SGM 2.2, and I keep having this weird problem. I'm doing the mission to kill the bandit snipers outside Yanov at night, and after chasing down the fugitive, I suddenly start to hear the sounds of an electro anomaly, and a second later, I'm dead instantly. I reload, thinking I just walked into an electro anomaly, but it happens again. Sometimes when I reload, my screen turns blue like I'm receiving psy damage. According to the awareness meter (or whatever its called), nothing's aware of me, so it's not a mutant, and I have SGM anomalies turned off, so it's not that. This happened earlier, too, when I was dealing with the bloodsucker lair in Zaton, and after leaving the Krug Complex via the sewers, the same electro noise happened followed by instant death. After like 10 reload, I eventually just reloaded to a save from an hour beforehand. I went to redo the quest in the morning (the first time was during the night), and I had no such issue. Is night the problem? it's the only connection between the two I can make. I would just avoid going out at night, but this quest can only take place during the night, and I'm sure there are others that also require the night.

Aghhhhh I need my hourly AMK fix I think I'll become president of Argentina before Frozen Zone, OLR translated to English and In spite of death are released Oh, and dont forget OGSE. What the fuck happened to OGSE?

Also just had my potentially my most infuriating experience with SGM yet - Leaving Yanov station, immediately confronted by an Alpha Squad. After a few attempts to kill them, I retreat back into the station, and they follow me and wait outside. Having the ability to see through walls, every time I walk NEAR the doors, they take shots at me. I pursue a strategy of opening the doors, popping off a couple SVU shots, rinse, and repeat. I run out of ammo and buy all of Hawaiian's, and when that runs out, I buy all the VOG-25s I can (I had some weird unique Groza I picked up off a bandit). The strategy becomes open doors, fire grenade, repeat. Occasionally, I accidentally fire it against the door, kill a Loner, and have to restart as the whole station turns against me. About 30 minutes later, 25 VOG grenades, ~60 SVU rounds, and countless restarts, I manage to kill off the last of them. While I kill the last one, however, a squad of Duty leaves the station. While I'm busy picking off the last squad member, they proceed to loot every last body. When I finally kill the last member, his corpse is right by the Dutyers, so they loot him too. I got literally nothing out of what was probably the most stressful experience I've ever had playing Stalker.

Stealing the loot, that sounds like duty. On the other hand, it's just Duty, what's a few dead Duty members mean anyways?

[QUOTE=kiloy;48519963]Creator disappeared for a while, everyone thought he died then came back then shortly disappeared after. It never came out[/QUOTE] I remember him vanishing and then coming back, a couple months after he came back and was working and teasing it. I generally lost interest and figured I'd check in much later. I ended up completely forgetting about it for a long time and when I checked realised it never released. I thought I may have missed the release or something after initially not paying anymore attention from my previous check. [QUOTE=Beacon;48521558]fucking kanyhalos[/QUOTE] It's strange. When I talk to him on facebook, or used to he seems normal and relaxed. I guess it's just the modding stuff that seems to get him riled up.

i've had no respect for him ever since the original SoC Redux days, it's funny to see he hasn't changed [editline]23rd August 2015[/editline] [url=http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-wormwood/images/evening-lookout][t]http://media.moddb.com/images/mods/1/15/14909/xrengine-2015-08-23-13-24-57-76.png[/t][/url] [B]'Evening Lookout'[/B] [I]I started working on the new interior for Yanov station this week, beginning with Hawaiian's bar area. It's too early to show anything here yet, but we're adding a gun-runner NPC to the station, so Hawaiian will be responsible purely for liquid entertainment in Wormwood. Keep an eye out for an interior screenshot coming soon(tm)![/I]

I got pretty bored and decided I'd start making Stalker videos, excuse the shitty editing, I'm not the best at it. [video=youtube;PQjV2ZzDwc4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQjV2ZzDwc4[/video]

[B]ManRod[/B] Vanilla+ is at 99% (weapons addon). I'm balancing artefacts and then I'll be done with it. Want to have an early access version? Be wary; ZRP + PRZ2 + SSO and SWTC are included by default. The latter 3 are pretty heavy in size. I reckon it to be roughly 2,5 GB packed, 6~ unpacked. [editline]23rd August 2015[/editline] PRZ2.1 *

This sounds interesting. (I barely know what those characters stand for, but i'm pretty sure i can play these things and enjoy some fresh stalker) Also, I'm still playing through lost alpha. Somehow it has taken me so long to play through. I been messing around ignoring the quests or doing something irrelevant.
