hey-hey, people! hope you're having a lovely Sunday.
could anyone please recommend a purely bugfix mod for SoC? something that only fixes bugs, but doesn't add new models/quests/weapons, doesn't change the balance, etc?

#

I've looked through the pinned messages, but didn't see an answer. thanks in advance ^^

young fable
#

Jeez

#

I dont think theres mod that you listed above

kind sand
#

I actually got a most helpful answer from someone!

#

so far, it's just what I wanted

#

and very configurable - easy to add/remove QoL features

#

I picked the vanilla configuration

#

but I bet I'll cave in and make a few tweaks later on - e.g., I hate timed quests, so I'll probably give myself more time to complete them

for CS though install SRP

Yep. Natvac lies and tricks people into using his massive mod, by pretending they are getting bug fixes only and it is still vanilla, that he has been working on the ZRP for over 15+ years, constantly adding content and tweaking it. It is far from vanilla as there are many, many default changes you cannot control, and that you cannot see. Sure he lets you toggle a few things to give the illusion of choices. The ZRP retards spawns of men and mutants and makes the game so much easier. I pleaded with him over 15+ years ago to just release bug fixes ONLY and he refused, as he wants people to play his massive Mod in his vision of what the game should be only. He is so consumed by his version, it has produced 100+ times more bugs than it ever originally fixed, this is why he has to constantly update it. He gatekeeps r/stalker to trick and lie to new people, into using his massive mod. This is just an FYI. The other two bug fixes for Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat do not do this. It is only the ZRP and its psychopath creator.

#

ofc, I'm akmost a total newb - only finished SoC once when it came out and played it a few times since then

#

so you probably know better, and I mean no disrespect

#

is there something to read/watch on the topic?

#

I've been playing ZRP on the "vanilla" config and I haven't spotted any differences, apart from vastly i proved performance, less sound bugs, etc.

#

it's exactly the kind of rabbit hole I'd love to fall into 🙂

kind sand
# ruby citrus it's not needed, SoC is completely fine

is it though? I was barely able to get the Steam version running on my modern machine, and still crashed at times. launching and loading took 5 minutes, sound kept bugging out, icons and texts were very misaligned...

#

I would be OK if it were fhe same bugs I had 15 and 10 years ago, but most of this stuff is new. and, well, it's so much it becomes immersion-breaking for me

patent apex

and it had a ton of new bugs I haven't seen on the CD version

#

Which soup mod should I get into first, NLC 7? op2.2? I heard most of them arent in english are any of them fully or mostly translated?

#

I saw a reccomendation and they hold NLC in high regard

#

but it sounds like op2.2 is like the elden ring bg3 of stalker mods with several hundred hours of playtime lol

patent apex

op-2

#

or na7

#

or 2020

#

or whichever the FRIG is the most up to date version (OGSR i think)

#

all of which can be found on the c-con spreadsheet

idle matrix
#

OP-2. Installation is pretty simple, has an english translation by default with a patch to translate some additional lines, the wiki is also a good resource if you ever get stumped or stuck

#

It is the biggest and most chaotic one but if you want a soup experience I say go all the way

definitly vanilla aesthetic. but NPC's also reload with same animations too, so yeah they will reload pretty long time smile_degtyarev

#

i think OGSR supports reload animations when the weapon is not fully spent. maybe with blender you can shorten those animations so the player changes the mag only. shortening the reload time to match vanilla reload time.

unless you overwrite anomaly with CoC files (installing in the anomaly file) it will be okay

Living Legend kinda works, its ehh but no abysmal
But the rest is just.. ugh

cursive marsh
#

I think the only reason I have some feeling towards anomaly story is because I spent 8 hours one sitting to finish the questline and I was just so happy to finish it

upbeat coral
#

Slop story

#

Slop mod

#

Grrrr

idle matrix
#

The sin quest line is such a slog. I just wanted it to be over

cursive marsh
#

restarting it rn

#

I hope i can save my game now 🙏🏽

ebon tusk
#

are we shitting on True Stalker?

#

my third fav passtime

cursive marsh
#

Damn even my first cutscene bugged i think it's not a good sign

ebon tusk
#

smile_degtyarev yhea the story started strong than it got shit, then it got worse
the game has no A-Life, its a bland and tasteless ammount of running back and forth and the only good battle is at the end of the game bc the enviroment is new and not yet seen anywhere but AlternativA 1.4 that ALSO had that type of enviroments
the quests arent bad but its frontloaded with good ones then wears out tis only plot convinience to the point of complete joke

#

its the triple A of stalker mods, its generic, plays not so good, has no depth

#

all looks, no actual stuff

upbeat coral
#

Third favourite past time you say?

#

First is shitting on Gunslinger I suppose

#

But what is second?

cursive marsh
#

NOOO I STILL CAN'T SAVE

upbeat coral
#

Its so joever

#

Gotta play good mods now

#

What a shame

cursive marsh
#

Nah

neat duneBOT
#
polishfella has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

upbeat coral
#

Lol
Get Wolf'd

cursive marsh
#

I'll just

#

kill myself

upbeat coral
#

Dont do that

cursive marsh
#

its joever

upbeat coral
#

That shit kills you

ebon tusk
#

shitting on anomaly

upbeat coral
#

Omg

#

Same bestie

ebon tusk
#

this means dont intsall the game in a folder where you need administrator previleges

#

the fix is easy, grab the game folder and drag it to desktop, then launch the game thru the exe

cursive marsh
#

I already have it on my desktop

ebon tusk
#

start the game as an administrator

raw nexus
#

start the setup as an administator

ebon tusk
#

the game

raw nexus
#

so the disk problem wont happen

#

ok the game too

cursive marsh
ebon tusk
#

Turn I dont know what kind of esotirical programming youre doing there ...Im not calling you that

#

there

raw nexus
#

will my call of the zone crash and break when i set my graphics to max

upbeat coral
#

Shouldnt happen

ebon tusk
#

shouldnt happen

cursive marsh
upbeat coral
#

Unless you added bunch of addons
Like a LOT of addons in which case it may run out of memory

cursive marsh

only mod to stalker I played is anomaly and now true stalker

# cursive marsh What are the good mods

I would say AZM is pretty good, I thought I was gonna hate the artifact system but I actually found it suprisingly fun to work as a money sink
Return to the Zone, Legend Returns, Spatial Anomaly, OGSR Legacy, Valley of Whispers, Game of Souls

upbeat coral
#

Its not fully finished but its always growing

blazing lichen
#

gamma?

upbeat coral
#

Cuz you cant start with RTTZ

#

Thats illegal

upbeat coral
blazing lichen
#

i dont even have it installed anymore

upbeat coral

cursive marsh
upbeat coral
cursive marsh
#

So tell me

#

because im a lazy bastard

blazing lichen
#

no

ebon tusk
#

its a mod

blazing lichen
#

even cotz isnt stalker

ebon tusk
#

its NOT stalker, its its own creative project

cursive marsh
#

do those good mods have integrated better guns or do i have to install them

upbeat coral
#

._.

blazing lichen
#

only the 3 games are canon stalker

cursive marsh
upbeat coral
#

Depends from mod to mod

ebon tusk
upbeat coral
#

Mods like Thorny Way, Trapped or Spatial Anomaly have integrated gunpacks

#

STCOP 2.5 in all three cases I believe

cursive marsh
ebon tusk
#

gunpacks? every mod I have just said uses a gunpack different from the OG

upbeat coral
#

Thing is most mods dont really need it

#

Well

#

No mod needs it

#

And not all mods would benefit from it

cursive marsh
#

I HAVES

#

SAVES

#

it works

ebon tusk
#

like I said

cursive marsh
#

thank you gunslinger hater

ebon tusk
#

you need to give the game admin previleges or put it in a folder that doesnt need them, since the game is trying to create a file and doesnt have the previleges

cursive marsh
#

it's so goofy

upbeat coral
#

Never happened to me smh

cursive marsh
#

now I can actually play this game

ebon tusk
cursive marsh
#

Okay true stalker just got the biggest L I experienced yet

#

I can't kill a guy I just saved

raw nexus
#

true stalker is very hard

upbeat coral
#

No

ebon tusk
#

not really

raw nexus
#

the artefact hunting is very confusing

#

and very hard

upbeat coral
#

No

#

No

ebon tusk
#

its not, its literally just CoP Art Hunting

raw nexus
#

lol i was trolling

upbeat coral
#

No

raw nexus
#

but the art hunting is confusing lol

#

anomalys is easier

upbeat coral
#

No

ebon tusk
#

"I was just acting like an idiot guys"

upbeat coral
patent apex
upbeat coral
#

Only difference being that anomaly artifacts are useless crap

upbeat coral
#

Yes

patent apex
#

they're pretty terrible in vanilla

#

not worth the investment

upbeat coral
#

Ah yes
This 4kg box with a healing artifact will only need 18 minutes to heal 30% of my HP

#

Truly a miraculous artifact

patent apex
#

2% increase in bullet resistance!?!?

upbeat coral
#

Definitely not inferior to a fuсking medkit in every way

patent apex
#

or, my favorite, LITERALLY NOTHING

raw nexus
cursive marsh
#

I miss the old days of shadow of chernobyl where i just went to agroprom without even a detetector and came back with 10000000 roubles worth of artifiacts

patent apex
raw nexus
#

true

#

but old world fixes it

upbeat coral
ebon tusk
#

controller_b_right NLC style artifact containers are p cool, especially bc not all artifacts are radioactive, however, Misery Style Containers suck

#

they are shit

upbeat coral
#

Yes

patent apex
upbeat coral
#

Man NLC is such good mod
Too bad it sucks

ebon tusk
#

lol

upbeat coral
#

Like
It got so many cool features

patent apex
#

elemental resistance for instant death upon being hit with a projectile

upbeat coral
#

But you just dont want to play it

ebon tusk
#

I need to try and transplant the cooking artifacts feature into OGSR Legacy

#

imagine...

raw nexus
#

my fav artefact is anomolous breadsmile_strelok

raw nexus
#

lol

upbeat coral
#

You mean the one that does absolutely nothing

raw nexus
#

yea

patent apex
raw nexus
#

i love artefacts that do nothing

upbeat coral
#

While emitting more radiation than the best module can handle

patent apex
#

there is no effect for this artifact

upbeat coral
ebon tusk
#

if OGSR had Barter and Artifact Cooking it would be even better

#

imagine

dire pecan
#

bread+medusa = moonlight

upbeat coral
raw nexus
#

THATS SO MUCH

upbeat coral
#

Its supposed to be per second but not even that works

patent apex
#

I don't like artifact cooking because it doesn't really add much

raw nexus
#

OMG STALKER GAMMA SO MUCH IRONMAN DAY 1 I FINALLY BOUGHT MYSELF 1 PIECE OF BREAD WOOO

upbeat coral
#

It does the effect like every ten seconds

ebon tusk
upbeat coral
raw nexus
#

lol idk what artifact cooking is

ebon tusk
patent apex
raw nexus
#

never used it if it even exists

patent apex
ebon tusk
patent apex
#

there ain't any with silly effects

raw nexus
#

oh ok

#

i understand now

ebon tusk
#

the ceiling is how much imagination you have

#

you are already rebalancing artifacts by making a cooking system might as well go balls to the walls

upbeat coral
#

Artifacts that let you see your karma, can kill hostiles in a radius, can destroy plague hotspots, let you extract valuable info from characters...

#

Or the best yet

#

Give you random artifact when you kill swamp cultists

#

Jekan please
Bless us with more mods

patent apex
#

honestly

#

I might be hung for this

#

but I really like some of the perk artifacts in that one anomaly mod

#

like the kicking mutants one

#

and the idea of running into electro anomalies for a benefit is great

upbeat coral
#

Isnt there an artifact you can throw like anomalous grenade in that mod?

#

Like it explodes and spawns few anomalies

patent apex
#

no but that sounds kickass

upbeat coral
#

I swear Ive seen that somewhere

#

And Im sure it was in some preview and not in something I played myself

patent apex
#

there's one called the knot that's kinda neat

#

effects are kinda boring though

upbeat coral
#

Knot is short for Kot Not

patent apex
#

one that teleports you to whatever you kill

#

one that is supposed to spawn a bunch of money on headshot

upbeat coral
#

Kot Not my Fellow STOCers
I will Kot the Grok followers once and for all

patent apex
#

one that makes you deal more damage which each shot you hit but hurts you on miss

#

uhh

patent apex
#

there's one that reduces mutant damage and player movement speed the more times you're attacked at once

upbeat coral
#

It sure sounds cool

#

Too bad its for an*maly

patent apex
#

shame it's in anomaly

#

yeah

#

I would kill for some of these in vanilla SoC

#

a game with actually fun combat

upbeat coral
#

Its not even OWA compatible is it?

patent apex
#

nope

upbeat coral
#

Damn

raw nexus
lone scarab
#

Playing SoC with Aurora mod and I'm in || the brain lab || and after I reach the control room, any save there is corrupted and the game will crash if I try to load it. Is there anything I can do?

astral widget
#

What is the best current stalker mod

#

I plan to download anomaly

final quiver
#

IWP

astral widget
astral widget
#

That all ?

#

Haha

#

Alaigh then i download anomaly

upbeat coral
#

It has more items sure but its dogshit mod

#

Download CotZ if you want actually good freeplay mod

astral widget
#

Alaight let me check the mod pag first

upbeat coral
#

CotZ is basically CoC with some extra features and much much better quests

astral widget
upbeat coral
#

Nah

#

Trust me

astral widget
#

I play it log time ago

upbeat coral
#

Ive played enough mods to know Anomaly isnt good

#

Its just bunch of stolen addons poorly glued together

#

It doesnt do single thing well

astral widget
#

Hey i used to play oblivion lost mod for story good old time

upbeat coral
#

I never play OL

#

Only OLR/VoA

astral widget
#

Shoud i try this instead

#

It cotz ported to coc

upbeat coral
#

CotZ itself is built on CoC

#

This is port to IWP, upgraded CotZ with new guns, mechanics and engine

#

Personally I would recommend standard CotZ

#

Maybe disable the mugging feature with addons tho, it gets very annoying rather quickly

astral widget
#

I made up my mind i will download cotz when i get home haha

#

As prefer free roaming and shooting thing as well

#

Does the npc faction or mutans respawn or they stay dead forever

#

I remember in vanilla stalker the map get so empty as the enemies dont faction dont respaw

upbeat coral
#

They respawn but it might take a while

#

Also dont listen to Yuri when it comes to mods

#

Hes an absolute clown and never gives any reason for what he says

#

Also also

#

If you ever decide to play story mods, I got a link to spreadsheet in my bio

astral widget
#

Wwho yuri ? The anime p4p dude ?

upbeat coral
#

CPU

#

Cpu Yuri

astral widget
#

Haha i see

astral widget
upbeat coral
#

Its mods I finished complete with ratings, reviews and download links

astral widget
astral widget
upbeat coral
#

It isnt there

#

Find it on moddb

#

The spreadsheet is story mods only

astral widget
#

Can you recommend me a mod that have the most completed features like have the most content story and replay or post story gameplay value i like to hang around after the main story end like doing repeatedly side quest roaming around killing things is it cotz ?

scenic lichen
#

I just realized now for some reason that since Stalker 2 is made in Unreal Engine 5 and you can use a gamepad, there's a good chance we will have a relatively functioning virtual reality mod for it almost instantly due to the UEVR injector 🍀

astral widget
#

Do i need coc to play cotz

#

The mod page dont reveal much info

#

Oh nvm it a stand alone

upbeat coral
#

try OGSR

#

the pre Gunslinger version

#

its basically Shadow of Chernobyl with more content and better engine

astral widget
#

Damn so many option so each stand alone mod you listed there have different story and some tweaked and upgrades here and there

#

I remember why i play anomaly now it because it top featured mod and there are so many orther options

upbeat coral
#

well, even the mods that arent standalone often have new features

#

and they are usually done pretty well too

astral widget
#

At fist i certain that i wwill down load cotz now i even more confuse haha

#

I think i wwill try cotz first

raw nexus
#

you cant level transiton

astral widget
raw nexus
#

i tried to level transiton from cordon to swamp and it didnt work

#

nothing happened and i was on the transiton

astral widget
#

i checking the dreamcatcher mod look pretty dope

upbeat coral
#

How long it will take to finish the story while doing few sidequests here and there

#

With Goldsphere there are 2 values

astral widget
#

2 to 4 hrs ? for dreamcatcher ?

upbeat coral
#

The second value is 100% completion

astral widget
#

holy shit goldshere game hrs there must be hunred of mission

upbeat coral
#

Yes

#

There is

upbeat coral
#

2-4 is for Gott mit Uns

cursive marsh
upbeat coral
#

No

#

These three arent standalone

#

Altho if you have the game from CD or GOG store then you can get multiple copies

#

On steam its only one copy at a time

cursive marsh
#

Noo

#

#

Idk nothing about modding 😭

#

I never modded the original stalkers

young fable

cursive marsh
young fable

Stalker Weapon Reanimated

cursive marsh

young fable
#

cursive marsh
#

Fix the umm

upbeat coral
#

But thats because other freeplay mods tend to be complete and utter dogshit

young fable
#

required og CoP

cursive marsh
#

upbeat coral
#

Well technically it is standalone

#

But you need to have CoP installed

#

For legal reasons

young fable
