[spiral knot]

I guess I should at least give it a try you're right

[ebon tusk]

consistent bug with SOC, dont do that and you should be fine

[spiral knot]

Only in loot menu, not inventory ?

[ebon tusk]

yhea, using them in your inventory screen produces no bug or crash

[supple moss]

Just played it for the first time awhile ago, downloaded zrp halfway through. Become one of my favorites, the graphics are charming, playing with graphics/modpacks are really fun after first playthrough as well

[spiral knot]

Looks like ZRP doesnt absolutely need a new game so I'll try full vanilla and see if i need ZRP or not

Is it true there is no subtitles in SoC?

[ebon tusk]

yes

[spiral knot]

Any french voices then?

Would have loved to play original voices with french subtitles but i'm struggling to find a mod for that

[ebon tusk]

no

[spiral knot]

Ok, thanks for your help!

exploration? wazzat?

[simple thistle]

So there are console commands like XShowCurrentLocation but it doesn't show anything either in the in game console or on screen, so is there like a console output file somewhere that it's printing all this stuff?

Sweet, cuz without the output from the commands most of them are useless lol

[dreamy violet]

tried to install fov switcher and weapon skin pack on my shoc and now the game is crashing

deleted the files of both mods but its still crashing

its fov switcher thats breaking my game

why is that?

[dreamy violet]

what r u talking abt 🤨

in shadow of chernobyl?

no

[upbeat coral]

no

you cant

[dreamy violet]

but like my question hasnt been answered

why does fov switcher break shoc when there r people who use it and it doesnt crash their game?

[tawdry igloo]

What mod is that looks good.

[upbeat coral]

@ruby citrus can you translate something for me
its bunch of images that image translators cant chew through due to the font used

nevermind

got the sourcefiles with text

[night pulsar]

Hi guys, am I the only one who finds it very annoying that places on the map don't update once you've visited them or is this a bug, how is it possible to remember all the places you've already visited, lots of games adopt this method why isn't it here?

[tawdry igloo]

dang downloaded SGM+Gunslinger and then the translation and it was perfect but all the item descriptions appear bugged.

off to find another total conversion for COP that keeps the story

[crude rock]

im sure this is asked to death but what's the main difference between LFO and ABR for Clear sky? Are there any other recommendations?

[analog yarrow]

its happening. patch on steam - 13gb

[ebon tusk]

ABR is a total conversion that focuses on rebalancing the game, for worse and the insane
LFO is a total conversion that includes new content and engine, for those wanting misery, aka, mentally insane

[crude rock]

Wait a second those both seem terrible

[ebon tusk]

[blazing lichen]

I'm excited to try the dead sky mod for clear sky

logs for patch

i hope stalker 2 will have compability

with mods

with the new patch

imagine the patch brekaing all the mods☠️

[raw nexus]

bugged for me

[rough seal]

What option do I use in fmodel to extract .cfg files? I want to update some stuff for the new patch but the Nexus article I used for reference is gone.

[ruby holly]

Certain mods do break the game with the new update. Mutant loot for sure, there are others

[ebon tusk]

I do hope that

[rough seal]

Weird, the new patches Difficulty CFGs look about the same parameters from before the patch? Maybe they changed the balance thingies at a lower level?

[patent apex]

next gen stalker patch

[mental yoke]

Anyone know a good reshade for Anomaly?

I mainly only use BaS and some improved textures

[mental yoke]

so I shouldn't have any problems

[lament steeple]

At word on what mods still work or if any of them break game?

[next root]

mutant loot seems to break the game atm

[lament steeple]

Ok. Carry capacity, performance, and sprint duration mods still work?

[next root]

I can't confirm, I'm not using any of them. but I'd assume they only change values and should be still working. you could check the nexus pages of each mod and see if there are any new comments stating it's not working anymore

or you know, just start your game and try 😛

[lament steeple]

Thank you!

[raw nexus]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

There a way to get the coordinates of map locations? There's a teleport console command but it requires either the location SID, or the coordinates

[simple thistle]

Or has anyone been able to data mine the full res image of the map by chance?

Why haven't they added as inspection keys or check mag???

Its the one's from Arena

[patent apex]

anyone remember the name of that small SoC overhaul

[woven saddle]

Hmm.. Might need to remove the Grok economy mod to test out the new changes

[idle matrix]

Memories of the Zone? Complete?

[simple thistle]

Well I figured out how to find coordinates of in game locations using photoshop and some basic math, but that only gets me X and Y coordinates, so I'm pretty much left guessing for the height 😂

Might take a lot of broken legs to find usable coordinates for major locations lol

[granite tulip]

has anyone tested the no shader warmup mod, if so does it cause any problems in the game?

[simple thistle]

So the coordinate system in the game goes all the way down to attometers, and 1 attometer is equal to the diameter of a single electron.......no wonder the game has performance issues

[upbeat coral]

you gotta render individual atoms to show how MUCH the anomalies defy laws of physics

[prisma vessel]

Did the new update break any stalker 2 mods?

[upbeat coral]

it broke every mod ever

:3

[simple thistle]

a few, like the mutant parts mod and mods that are more in depth like that, but optimization mods and stuff shouldn't be affected

[runic perch]

hey not cool you reacted me with a pregnant man

There's a pregnant man emoji......

not a clue why I'm even in that server

[ancient wind]

wait actually

[simple thistle]

that's better than what I got currently which is using a map image in photoshop and estimating the location with a calculator xD

[upbeat coral]

No

But it broke bad mods

:3

[ancient wind]

like groks

[upbeat coral]

I sure hope so

[runic perch]

We got a lot of fixes tho

hopefully its worth it

[simple thistle]

Damn artefacts are worth 1.66x their original price with the update.....I want my money I missed out on

[tawdry snow]

heres to hoping I get to release my full 4k texture pack this weekend for Shadows of Chernobyl

Absolute HD is cool and all...but it definitely doesnt cover as much grounds as my work does

[tawdry snow]

to use my texture pack btw...youll want the latest version of OGSR here: https://github.com/OGSR/OGSR-Engine

[urban cosmos]

How do you put mods in console need wierd water it's still bugged

[quaint ingot]

I hope they release the modding tools to replace every single stalker's face. Since we have the tools like metahuman or daz 3d.

[civic thunder]

@urban cosmos still waiting on the console mods to be released

[urban cosmos]

Ahhh ok sweet thanks

[plucky harness]

anyone got a mod for a way to indicate friendlies without a reticle?

[civic thunder]

@urban cosmos welcome welcome still waiting myself so far no information has released as to when it will come to console

[tawdry snow]

I mean you can already replace the facial textures easy after you extract them

all they are is .dds textures

[quaint ingot]

not like that, like replace whole face model

Metahuman is already part of UE and Daz 3D has exporter for UE FBX port

[tawdry snow]

I mean you can easily extract the meshes/ogf/omf files too tho im not familiar with modifying such data personally

I can only guess you arent familiar with how to access such data

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalkershadowofchernobyl/mods/1037

@quaint ingot

thats what you are looking for

[quaint ingot]

I meant about Stalker 2

[tawdry snow]

got ya

[proper ermine]

What is the best way to experience all of the 3 OG games for a "first" playthrough in 2024?
I played a fair bit of Stalker Anomaly last year, and then bought all 3 of the OG Stalker games on Steam. I played through some of SoC (trying to play them, in order of release) but I don't remember where I was or what was going on. I started a new playthrough, but the gunplay compared to Stalker 2 feels so baaad..

What mods/patches do you guys recommend for each game for me to get through the entirety of the 3 games? CoP just looks awful on my 21:9 monitor with the head bobbing and fov.. almost makes me sick

[tawdry snow]

yeah give the community time...im sure over time they will figure out the encryption the sequel uses for its data

[tawdry snow]

I recommend the latest version of OGSR from here: https://github.com/OGSR/OGSR-Engine

its the ULTIMATE patch for the game

[patent apex]

vanilla

[tawdry snow]

honestly does what ZRP and the unofficial patch does from what I can tell and more and all without having to alter any of the vanilla game files

[proper ermine]

is it for just SoC or is it all 3?

[tawdry snow]

SoC as far as I can tell

[proper ermine]

Awesome! I'll check it out, thank you!

[patent apex]

OGSR adds a large amount of content and changes the gameplay a bunch

[tawdry snow]

not from what I can tell

mayb OGSR: GA

but not OGSR

OGSR: GA for those unaware is OGSR: Gunslinger Addon

which from the title obviously DOES alter a lot of gameplay

yeah OGSR doesnt really seem to alter much gameplay...on its own. unlike the Gunslinger Addon version

[proper ermine]

Yeah from the review i watched it seems like it was more of the gunplay and not much else. Which is good imo, I want the story experienve but gamma and anomoly doesn't have that

[tawdry snow]

yeah dont get OGSR Gunslinger Addon

just get OGSR the engine itself

from the url I gave ya

surprised peeps here are unware you can get the engine alone with all its patches and dont need to get the gameplay altering gunslinger addon with it

well I guess it doesnt help the OGSR community is mainly russian natively...and cus of that how they word somethings when translated to English isnt exactly correct. It can be broken. Or rather just lack clear details/info

as they dont exactly advertise that you can get the engine with all the fixes itself without the gameplay altering content

I kinda had to hunt it down myself and then compare it myself to the gunslinger addon

[finite badger]

not sure if this is the best category, but im having an issue with stalker 2 after update. my localizations all are messed up, displayed sid_misc_xxxx before all the Ui buttons. when i swap it to russian language, it all works fine, but every other language has this sid_misc_xx issue

[tawdry snow]

I assume the OGSR community is mainly russian natively as it most definitely appears as so if you read pretty much anything from it. As stated its either in blunt russian or from what I can tell, broken english. and by broken english...I mean more like proper english just missing info/details in it

[rough hatch]

is there any mod suggestions for stalker soc rather than playing vanilla as they say its riddled with bugs and issues, i wanna play the series in order before stalker 2

[tawdry snow]

again I highly recommend OGSR engine only from: https://github.com/OGSR/OGSR-Engine

[tawdry snow]

@rough hatch dont get OGSR: GA or OGSR: Gunslinger Addon...it completely alters the gameplay

that engine essentially lets you play the vanilla game more patched than what ZRP or the unofficial patches offer

not only that it allows the game to access all your GPU's vram preventing as much stuttering and crashes as the vanilla game with ZRP and/or the unofficial patches do

[rough hatch]

is this a mod ?

[tawdry snow]

sorta its more like a patch type deal

the mod version is the gunslinger addon version

[tawdry snow]

it essentially updates the engine

[rough hatch]

any guide how to install it, it seems complex

also do i need the base game?

[tawdry snow]

very simple download OGSR_Engine_SHOC_EDITION_x64_6.nov.2024_Release.zip

Then extract both folders with all their contents to the game install location for example for me it is : F:\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl

then all you do is go into the bin_x64 folder and launch via the xrEngine.exe

you dont need to get ZRP or any unofficial patches for the game

just do a fresh install of the game then download and extract the files and launch as I instructed and enjoy

that zip btw is only like 59MB big

compared to the sevrel gig big gunslinger addon version which completely alters gameplay

[proven lantern]

I present to you, Light Rain weather with actual sky map, dynamic clouds and color toning

Will soon be release with my Dynamic Weathers mod

[rough hatch]

whats zrp btw?

[tawdry snow]

basically another type of unofficial patch from the community before OGSR came about

[rough hatch]

also whats the gunslinger addon add ??

just curious

[tawdry snow]

it doesnt really add as much as it alters from what I can tell

which is A LOT more than can be said briefly here aside from what has already been said

I mean im sure the gunslinger addon does try adding sum new things like new quests to the game

but I am not too sure what quality those are honestly

I personally just enjoy the vanilla game fully patched beyond what ZRP or the unofficial v1.0008b-fix1 patch offer

[rough hatch]

ooh okay, so you recommend only installing OGSR like u said and the game should be good ??

does it have visual updates or just fixes ?

[tawdry snow]

yes

[ebon tusk]

first playthru should always be vanilla

[tawdry snow]

yes but properly patched for the modern era

[ebon tusk]

for CS, SRP is recommended, but unless you have misteryous and gaping issues running games like SoC, you should be able to play them without any mods

[tawdry snow]

well given how broken and buggy the vanilla version of SoC is even with ZRP and/or the unofficial v1.0008b-fix1 patch...yeah id argue having it properly patched to enjoy on modern hardware anyday is the best way to enjoy it

and the OSGR engine alone is that solution

not the gunslinger addon

[ebon tusk]

the OGSR engine alone, already alters the games behaviour and changes the balancing by virtue of it's already integrated offline free a-life system, and new features that aren't restricted to tow the line of SoC vanilla
since you have, for example, stalkers that can wander from rostok and garbage to cordon quite fairly, extend that to the whole game

you can ask tejas his grievances with ZRP

at the end of the day, if you dont need it, dont go installing it for your first playthru, second or third, you do whatever you want

[tawdry snow]

yeah but does ZRP prevent the game from crashing every few minutes on my modern hardware like OSGR engine does?

or does the the unofficial v1.0008b-fix1 patch solve that issue?

no they dont

[ebon tusk]

yes

[tawdry snow]

no it doesnt

ive tried it

[ebon tusk]

my game doesnt crash every 10 minutes

[rough hatch]

wait, OGSR prevents the game from crashing?

[tawdry snow]

mine crashed literally every few seconds actually with ZRP

[ebon tusk]

like I said, the game behaves differently for different people and you only really need to choose what is best for you

you scale the solution to the severity of the problem, and if there is no problem, you dont need anything else

SoC is fully playable base in W11

[civic pewter]

The Warmongers is good

[ebon tusk]

I dont know what that is

but judging from the name, Id just go play TFW

maybe I should do smth with TFWR

[tawdry snow]

yes

[civic pewter]

Mod Vanilla +:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/the-warmongers

[ebon tusk]

cool total conversion, not a Vanilla +

[tawdry snow]

atleast it does for me on my 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12600K (16 CPUs), ~3.7GHz + AMD Radeon RX 6600 with 64gb of ram

[civic pewter]

Thanks for the correction

[tawdry snow]

again tho if you have legacy/or as I refer to it ancient hardware compared to me...yeah play the game vanilla...it may work fine for you

[ebon tusk]

did you try the 12th gen branch beta?

[tawdry snow]

got SoC via gog

[ebon tusk]

the issues with 12th and up gen CPUs comes from the P and E core architecture

[ebon tusk]

dont know how it works around there, sorry

[tawdry snow]

and I mean lets be real OGSR's latest version is more stable than that official beta patch

ive never ever seen an official "beta" patch that was stable at what it claimed to do

[ebon tusk]

not my point, the game is fully playable on modern hardware as it is, if you don't have problem's then you shouldn't be installing stuff that alter the game for first playthrus

[tawdry snow]

hense the title "Beta" added to it typically

[tawdry snow]

I never argued that honestly...infact I encourage that...but again if on modern hardware...sucha thing likely isnt possible

[ebon tusk]

you do you man, most ppl can

[idle matrix]

Good to hear actually since I am probably going to have it in the near future with a PC upgrade

[ebon tusk]

I regularly play SoC vanilla and I use W11 so

[tawdry snow]

yeah but Win11 doesnt exactly require modern hardware to utilize...sooooo...ill admit its nice to know the exe is compatible with the OS technically atleast launching...but again if you are upgrading your hardware not your software/OS...you may need to do some patch work beyond ZRP or any other unofficial patches

[ebon tusk]

I have friends, with AM5 CPUs that run SoC vanilla, even if you are using modern intel CPUs the beta should cover you

[idle matrix]

Very good. I'm upgrading to AM5

[ebon tusk]

and that does make sense

[warm galleon]

anyone have anything regarding fixes for exception access violations? the patch was supposed to fix them but I'm still experiencing constant CTDs during shader compilation.

[ivory anchor]

I see we're back to the daily vanilla vs modded argument

[simple thistle]

I think there's still some sort of memory leak issue even after the update, the game gets less stable the longer you have it open for. I guess they hired Windows devs to work on the game

[tawdry snow]

as I said the ZRP and unofficial patches are cool and so is the beta patch but they are inferior to OGSR engine when it comes to stability for SoC

[patent apex]

vanilla ain't that bad tbh

[tawdry snow]

if it suffers from memory leaks even after all the patching...and crashes due to such things...it is

no1 wants to play a game that requires the amount of time SoC does to complete only to have it randomly crash due to memory leaks especially given vanilla doesnt even utilize auto-saving

tho im aware ZRP allows that

heck there is a reason why Skyrim on the PS3 is the worst rated version of the game. Not so much a memory leak but still a lack of memory for other means. which leads to corrupt saves and crashes

anyone that tries to justify a long lasting memory leak for any program may as well go financially support Star Citizen imo

[warm galleon]

I've also had my first BSODs on this PC with this game

[patent apex]

not really

I haven't seen anyone have issues beyond just buggy quest design

even from both YouTube playthroughs and friends

a lot of the issues are exasperated

[tawdry snow]

well you just saw multiple people including me reporting such things

[patent apex]

not for SoC

lot of HoC though

[tawdry snow]

weird cause multiple just reported for SoC

[patent apex]

a quick google shows no issues for SoC

I'm fairly sure you're just misinformed man

probably thinking of HoC

[tawdry snow]

no

scroll up

[patent apex]

it's just you

the last message about a memory leak was for HoC

[tawdry snow]

funny cause it took me less than a second to find this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/540331-stalker-shadow-of-chernobyl/42280644

[patent apex]

and the rest are unrelated

[tawdry snow]

its old but relevant

[patent apex]

16 year old gamespot, and clearly it took you longer

[tawdry snow]

heck even got this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/959904-stalker-call-of-pripyat/53567234?page=1

[patent apex]

quite clearly talking out of the ass

[tawdry snow]

sorry you cant read or do your research properly

[patent apex]

"scroll up"

that's also CoP

not SoC

some people

[tawdry snow]

first 1 is SoC

heck there is this entire webpage about SoC crashes: https://www.metacognix.com/stlkrsoc/CrashesStillInTheGame.html

do better research yo

just cause you read 2 links in a search and called it quits doesnt mean you researched anything lol

"VaNiLa SoC AiNt ThAt BaD"

it is

you just are too ignorant to accept the fact

btw those curious quick search on that last link i shared...it clearly states that yes even with ZRP you may encounter out of memory crashes

it even talks about BSOD crashes as sumone had mentioned above that @patent apex clearly also failed to acknowledge

clearly not many peeps in this server know much about SoC technically

[wide hawk]

yall got any idea how i might fix this? dude is stuck under ground and i cant complete the objective without him being dead. playing with the complete clear sky mod

would really prefer to avoid loading a save but it is what it is

nvm issue fixed itself. dude just decided to come back up

[long isle]

How do I extract game files for Clear Sky? I'm using the unpacker by MetaCognix, but the commands don't seem to work:

SocPUP - Unpack process started```

That's where it ends, nothing more happens.

[neon socket]

Hi did anyone check to know patch did the optimizaion work?

[upbeat coral]

Yes
From what I heard there are significantn improvements

[upbeat coral]

Use the stalker DB unpacker by Rammaken
https://www.moddb.com/games/stalker-call-of-pripyat/addons/stalker-database-unpacker-v12

[long isle]

Fair, though is there any reason or can I troubleshoot with MetaCognix's doesn't work? Because I want to use that to both unpack and repack, if possible.

[upbeat coral]

No idea honestly

[long isle]

Well, appreciate the help either ways. If someone can help, MC's gives me the following error in RO mode:

SocPUP - Unpack process started

Incorrect number of unpack parameters.```

[tawny fox]

Hi im on xbgp version of hoc and new update broke the mods. I have some .paks, uetools, and a performance engine.ini file what should I take a look at when I get this type of crash

He thinks the graphics are outdated.
Any good reshade mods y'all can recommend?

[cold galleon]

Shadow Of Chernobyl:

Clear sky and Call of Pripyat:

Add entire slews of guns.

Anything from the Mosin, all the way to the PKP.

also Anomaly isnt stalker

[main tapir]

i am trying to play misery 2.2 but the .exe file does nothing. does anyone know what could be wrong?

i tried reinstalling it multiple times, redownloading it, restarting my computer and running it as admin. unsure what i could do beyond that

[young fable]

ok

idk why people had brain damage in this years

clearly westies dont know what slav jank game is

always bitching up the game is outdated

and ZRP? seriously? that shit aint fixed mods

its literally create bugs on top of bugs

[civic robin]

If yall are having trouble funding artifacts change the graphics and it'll pop right out

[solid thicket]

Yall got any idea why my copy of IWP standalone literally deletes it's own game engine every time I play ?

[little plover]

No idea man, probably better off asking Voin or moof1x in IWP discord though, I have IWP standalone installed rn and it’s working fine with mo2 and I’ve modded it further.

[solid thicket]

It's just that it's really funny to me how I can literally Play a game that deletes it's game engine, have minimum graphics on and still get below 20 fps average

And then go and watch a ytber have 140+ fps and complain about stutters

[little plover]

That is pretty weird ngl man, runs totally fine on my laptop at high settings and even with the PiP scopes enabled o still average 120fps. Might be your hardware?

[solid thicket]

Oh it's definitely my hardware (PC specs in profile) but seeing as I've completed gunslinger mod on master on this warcrime of a PC I'm ok with it

[little plover]

I don’t even have a beast setup either btw, i7 9750H, 32gb RAM with an RTX 2060

[solid thicket]

My man, I'm talking Intel i3 6006-u, 4gb ram, Intel UHD 520 gpu type of PC

And a shoddy old HDD on top of that

[little plover]

Yeah, I had IWP saved on a HDD to begin with and I was getting mad stutters, like everytime I loaded into a map it would stutter for a good couple of minutes, I ended up getting another SSD for my laptop so I could install Stalker 2 on it since my c drive is only a 250gb and I’ve installed IWP on it too, now no stutters. It really makes a massive difference just having it on a SSD.

[solid thicket]

Shouldn't be a problem in the future for me since I arranged with my parents to get a new PC for Christmas that has a tb SSD in it with some better CPU, gpu and ram

But for now I'm stuck with this hunk o' junk

[little plover]

Maybe try disabling PiP scopes in settings, might get you some frames.

And you could also try getting a texture mod to get some frames.

[solid thicket]

Kinda pointless to do on this PC since as previously stated I'm upgrading in about a month or so

[sage night]

Hi ive never got to fully play the stalker trilogy as a kid and want to get into it so i can play stalker 2 without getting confused every 5 minutes. I was wondering if theres a list of mods for first playthrough that doesnt change the graphics or story too much, id like to stay as close to the original as possible but with bug fixes and very slight graphical improvements so if theres anybody here who could suggest me anything ill be very thankful

[shy tinsel]

Hi there)

[upbeat coral]

IWP uses Cry-Ray
64-bit Xray fork
one of the more demanding 64-bit forks

[untold glen]

guys, in CoTZ, can i make engineers to the last tier? or only first one i can? i mean like in CoC you can make any engineer do anything with tools

vanilla

[ebon tusk]

Stalker SOC Update is a complete overhaul that changes gameplay, maps and plans to heavely alter the story in 2.0
not suited for first time playthrus

[sage night]

Okay i already found exactly what i was looking for but thanks anyway

[upbeat coral]

please dont say "Complete 2009"

[sage night]

was that meant for me?

[upbeat coral]

yes

[sage night]

no i just used the starter pack mod

thats it

[upbeat coral]

its from the ZRP guy

[tawdry igloo]

Anyone have experience with Gunslinger are the descriptions pretty empty for guns like this ? Or did I mess up installing the translation

[upbeat coral]

basically the entire localization is gone

[ripe imp]

Are there lighting mods that are vanilla friendly? (doesnt change vanilla atmosphere too much) I want to use full dynamic lighting but im getting shadows that dissapear depending on viewing angle and overall disgusting quality shadows on full dynamic lighting

this problem only appeared after installing ZRP ^^^

[upbeat coral]

ZRP on its way to break EVERY THING EVER for sake of fixing three bugs

[ripe imp]

well i wanted to reduce head bobbing, fix these white flashes when entering rooms and when breaking wooden boards on doors the wood break particle and sound effect would amplify 100x over and stretch accross the room

but i dont think ZRP fixed the flashes

[upbeat coral]

I dont think I ever saw the flashes

[ripe imp]

would you actually reccomend just playing full vanilla first playthrough?

[upbeat coral]

yes

from experience its less buggy somehow

you could also try OGSR engine to make the game a bit more stable
should also fix lighting problems
but please, only try that after playing vanilla

[ripe imp]

how am i able to reduce head bobbing on vanilla? I managed to find a link on reddit to the camera height adjust but that was the only ltx file provided

[upbeat coral]

type "cam_inertia 0.0001" in console

or something similar

[ripe imp]

will i need to retype that every game start?

[upbeat coral]

not sure about the exact command, never used it

[upbeat coral]

nope

[ripe imp]

ah ok ill try that after a fresh install tomorrow to get rid of ZRP

[upbeat coral]

I think all you need is to delete the gamedata folder but Im not sure

[ripe imp]

come to think of it, while I have ZRP, can I just delete everything other than the actor.ltx to keep the camera height

[hollow fog]

well i never installed any mods except the spin off one called "lost alpha" and tried "misery" which i didnt like at all lol. and i dont think i will do that in the future, so i guess ill avoid helping people about the mods in the future because im really not fit for that for sure 😄

[upbeat coral]

yeah, but you dont really need to

just delete the files ZRP affects

likely bin and gamedata

[ripe imp]

ive just read the default camera height makes it feel like you're a manlet

[upbeat coral]

Marked One is chad short king

[ripe imp]

ahahahaha

[upbeat coral]

hes one and half meters tall and kicks ass

[neat dune]

harrisbonkers has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[patent apex]

Aw

wolf didn't have an issue with it earlier

[upbeat coral]

with what?

[tawdry igloo]

Dang ive downloaded like a dozen different full mods for stalker COP and by far the best presentation and closest to modern standards is true stalker

guess im playing that despite no a life

[young fable]

True Stalker dosent had any A-Life at all

Thanks to the cutscene purpose

Everything is feel linear in therr

Dont be fool by graphics

[upbeat coral]

the sidequests are good tho

[young fable]

I never play it before but what i've heard the game screwed everything up

[upbeat coral]

eh

its good
but every thing its bad at.. well.. its severely bad

its all either good or dogshit

theres no inbetween

[young fable]

Uh huh.. Its good pack and lot of effort to put it

[upbeat coral]

like..
maps are great
sidequests good
visuals/presentation very nice
story.. bad, especially towards the end
balance.. bad

[young fable]

But uhh.. The game turned out to potential waste

[upbeat coral]

cant think of single thing that would be just meh

[young fable]

I like the world of true stalker.. But shit clean grass in radioactive isolated wasteland is not fit

[upbeat coral]

yeah

its a good modern mod with big drawbacks

solid 7/10 still

[young fable]

Well wish they followed SoC world mixed with CoP and CS feeling

But atleast make the grass look like fit with radioactive wasteland

[upbeat coral]

I played with minimal grass so no complaint there from me

[tawdry igloo]

Im hoping it will keep me entertained. I aint playing Stalker 2 for a few months. Once everything is all tidied up.

[upbeat coral]

its not a bad mod

but there sure are better ones to play

[tawdry igloo]

im testing ABR COP atm the latest version it feels good so far but kinda dated despite it being newer

[tawdry igloo]

ive tried quite a few, misery felt dated, SGM | Gunslinger was perfect but, the translation seems messed up none of the descruptions are readable

[untold glen]

yo, guys, im not sure if i can do that, but im repeating my question for like 3rd time now, cuz i never actually got a response, sadly

guys, in CoTZ, can i make engineers to the last tier? or only first one i can? i mean like in CoC you can make any engineer do anything with tools

[noble basalt]

i am not really sure about what you mean due to language barrier. but

For technicians, as long as they have tier 1, 2, 3 tools, they can upgrade anything to tier 3.

And compared to Call of Chernobyl, finding tools in Call of the Zone is much easier due to its mission system that rewards the tool itself. Unlike Call of Chernobyl, which tools only spawn in stashes and it is completely dependent on luck

[upbeat coral]

personally I didnt play CotZ much but all I ever got were tier 1 tool tasks

better ask @blazing lichen

[blazing lichen]

Noelbless said it perfectly

You can ask techs for work and they'll give you jobs to find different tiers of work

Sometimes you gotta keep asking them

Sometimes it can take a bit but I've gotten a few techs all the way to expert tier in cotz

[young fable]

repost to scare console player

[upbeat coral]

repost to scare

[raw nexus]

ur never on the general lol

[raw nexus]

[upbeat coral]

nearly all chats except this one and #💬┃en_offtop went to shit some time around release

[young fable]

Only animation

[blazing lichen]

I want to try the CoP hud mod for CoTZ but I heard it made people's games glitch and become broken

[raw nexus]

nice

does it repositon the gun too???

[young fable]

CoC hud is kinda hard to see because the healthbar are to damn small

[blazing lichen]

Honestly

[young fable]

Stalker 2 style i guess?

[blazing lichen]

I agree 100%

Like the health and stam bars are so damn small

[young fable]

I recommended play it on hud_fov 75

[blazing lichen]

bit to small imo

[young fable]

I guess they develop it on 720p

[blazing lichen]

true coc/cotz is old as hell

[neon socket]

Is that the old game or it’s the trailer lying

[blazing lichen]

oh i'm not talking about stalker 2

[neon socket]

Typical Russian scammers 😭😭😭 can’t be mad z

[noble basalt]

yes. it conflicts so much config
have to manually reconfig it one by one

[blazing lichen]

what and no politics

[neon socket]

Why don’t they add real guns to the game

Aks are unrealistic it doesn’t show them jamming every second on the trailer

[blazing lichen]

ayo lol cotz with CS graphics and CoP hud

[raw nexus]

cs???

it dosent look like clear sky

the graphics

[blazing lichen]

im using clear sky atmospherics

[noble basalt]

not shader

https://www.moddb.com/mods/doctorx-call-of-the-zone/addons/cop-atmosphere-for-cotz-cotz-11

[raw nexus]

if you want a modern cotz

try iwp wepon pack

it include cotz story

but with realistic guns

[noble basalt]

Cotz is too damn dark by default

[raw nexus]

direct x

[blazing lichen]

i had to tweak the lighting

[blazing lichen]

i gotta try it sometime

[raw nexus]

try it its standalone right now

[blazing lichen]

after my cotz run

[raw nexus]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-improved-weapon-pack/downloads/iwp-standalone

[noble basalt]

me with my whatever hud with CoP hud in cotz

[blazing lichen]

does this include cotz quests or do i need to install them

[noble basalt]

haven't tried IWP too, we'll see

[blazing lichen]

as i see this

i do like that I.W.P is 64 bit engine

[raw nexus]

nice mod uses ogsr engine

[raw nexus]

it includes cotz quests

[raw nexus]

no need to install

[untold glen]

got it, ty

[untold glen]

are those quests rare btw?

[noble basalt]

no, it is the only quest for technicians. if they say 'Sorry, don't have anything' when asked just sleep and go to other location then go back

^usually happens after the player asked for job immediately after completing the previous tool quest

[untold glen]

ohhh ok, got it then

Hey guys, anyone knows if even longer days (22 November) works with 1.0.2?

[restive sinew]

@austere bison unban me in DM

wanted to ask something bad about your modpack

tech-question

[patent apex]

@austere bison

[restive sinew]

it

is not about hate

i wanted to know

why you have 1.5.3 modded exe, but still using 1.5.2 scripts

[raw nexus]

nah not grok the guy from the crapma easy ban server

[austere bison]

It just works

Just like "why am I using an old version of WPO"

because I don't need the features of the new one

[brittle sage]

Here’s my very first console mod. It’s called the “Gigaslav run-pack”

[proven lantern]

Its finally here. Version 1.9.0 of STALKER 2's Dynamic Weather Overhaul with the fully restored and remastered missing weathers, and with proper transitions.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/164?tab=files

Get it now if you want to get the new weathers. There still some improvements to be made, so make sure to leave a comment here or on Nexus and ill get to it.

Good Hunting STALKERs

[restive sinew]

kek

so most addons are on 1.5.2, but they works with 1.5.3 modded exe?

[dire crow]

Be nice. Don't ask for help and be insulting at the same time.

[weak pelican]

how come there is no mod that reduces bruer weapon steal distance? theose ******* take my pewpew away across entire stadium in less time human can blink.....

[restive sinew]

lol i don't need help with his modpack here

i wanted to just give to people play his modpack in co-op

he knows who am i

so i can ask something

cause my co-op anomaly mod can be used to play co-op in any modpacks

he just said that our mod are fake

banned in dm and in his server

but it doesn't matter (because of actual gameplay on my YT)

it comes out in my discord at spring

and he can't do something with it

that's why im banned in his resources

for modding

kek

[restive sinew]

Huh?

[dire crow]

You are Monolith. I am saying hi.

[wind scaffold]

I want to say just couple of words: GoldenBALL is still best S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mod of all time.

[scarlet tusk]

I can't put the modifications off the sofmod
Is that a bug?

[marble smelt]

VR ?

[tight light]

ayo got a question, after the 1.0.2 update, do my mods still will be working or nah? gotta update em?

[ruby holly]

depends on the mods

[tight light]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/7?tab=files&file_id=2765

[ruby holly]

from what I see if you can go to the main menu and the text isnt messed up youi should be ok

[tight light]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/17?tab=files&file_id=2591

these 23

2

[ruby holly]

i think so, those just edit config files that the game reads from. as long as the files arent changed you should be good

[tight light]

thank u homie

cool pfp btw

[ruby holly]

thnaks

[harsh juniper]

mod pack recommendations for COP?

[ruby holly]

SGM 2.2 + gunslinger (you start in cordon and need to make your way to zaton, soupmod if you want lots of stuff added to the game, gunslinger guns+animations), MISERY 1 (more punishing vanilla style gameplay) or MISERY 2(total overhaul of the game, disassemble items, cook mutant food, much more brutal and punishing and grindy, inspired a lot of the STALKER: Anomaly changes), and the one i did for my last playthrough was STCOP 3.7+a bunch of graphics mods (go to https://www.moddb.com/games/stalker-call-of-pripyat/addons/stcop-weapon-pack-37-english-translation, read the first comment for install instructions)

[harsh juniper]

@ruby holly I appreciate it, if I'm wanting to play through the vanilla story still but want something closer to radiophobia 3 in terms of gunplay and graphics which of those would you recommend?

[ruby holly]

That last one I posted is probably the closest to radiophobia 3 that I know of. Better graphics and nicer guns, but it doesnt add any quests or stuff like radiophobia 3 does.

[harsh juniper]

Cool I appreciate it!

[harsh juniper]

@ruby holly sorry to bug again, but do I need to install gun slinger seperate from sgm? I saw someone mention some kind of merg but I can't find information on it.

[ruby holly]

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/s/Jy27pbtula

[heady field]

I don't mean to be brutal, but are there any gore mods out? Like, having more accurate damage perception when you hit someone with a 12 gauge slug.

[burnt vector]

Not any that i've seen. But there are mods that change damage per limb values as well as one mod in particular that changes the way headshots work, no more headshot sound effect so they appear more natural and instant.
Find attached anything i could find to make combat violence in the game more gritty.

Creature in the Mist is PEAK

[cold galleon]

Question.
How di I increase mutant loot drop possibility chance in Stalker clear sky?

[upbeat coral]

the what?

only SoC had mutant loot

[runic perch]

has any modded the weapon inspections from arena?

[young fable]

for what weapon inspection?

we only got weapon idle

[near escarp]

hello i need help with my mods. its on xboxgames btw, pc. it opens but only black screen and turns off automatically

[upbeat coral]

means you have incompatible mods

the crash log should tell you more

[simple thistle]

Any idea why my game likes to do this from time to time?

[hollow fog]

be careful to check that mod before using it tho, i was told by a moderator here that it will change not only graphical quality but storyline and the map too 😦

[hollow fog]

memory leak mate

[simple thistle]

I never used to be this bad though, thought the 1.0.1 was supposed to at least make it slightly better not worse

Anyone know of a console command to revive a dead NPC? Or spawn them again if I accidently killed them?

[stark tide]

anyone know why edges of buildings on the inside like the safehouse where you sleep have light coming through them? what causes that and is there a mod to remove it?

like looking at the ground the sunlights aura is coming through it

[simple thistle]

Side effect of UE5's Lumen Lighting. You can reduce it by tweaking some Engine.ini settings, at the cost of some performance though

[stark tide]

so if i want it gone, itll cost me performance to remove it? lmao

i can get less hungry if i dont order food? XDDD

computer logic lmao

[simple thistle]

Costs performance because it has to calculate light ray bounces/collisions with geometry more precisely to realize that there's no gap between wall and floor, or that the gap isn't as big as it thinks

[untold glen]

guys, can fn 2000 be usable as sniper? like, should i replace it for my old gp37? CoTZ

[cold galleon]

Says the story is left alone.
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalkershadow-of-chernobyl-update-v102-english-translation

[hollow fog]

1.0.1 didnt make it worse for me, but not sure about the 1.0.2 patch tho. yesterday after updating the patch the stuttering appeared which i didnt experience from the moment i turned on the windows gpu hardware acceleration setting on, but it appeared yesterday after 1.0.2 patch. but i started the game now and for now the stuttering is all gone. so random 👀

[hollow fog]

sniper - no. but its my favorite gun tho.

[untold glen]

okay

[hollow fog]

@orchid berry maybe you can comment on this why you warned all that the story is changed in this one 👀 i dont know myself, didnt check it thoroughly.

[orchid berry]

What it B?

[hollow fog]

with what graphical settings you are playing mate? looks pixelated

[quaint sigil]

its bcs of mo low quality screenshot

[hollow fog]

the dude says that the mod that ive sent a link yesterday a lot here on this server, he says that it doesnt change the story line.

[simple thistle]

you could use a mod that enables console and take a screenshot that way

[ebon tusk]

this is outdated, Stalker Update 1.02
not 1.4

[orchid berry]

Not sure what mod kek

[quaint sigil]

i just did fast screenshot bcs i was on a mission 😂

[hollow fog]

omg im stoopid once again, ignore me.... 🤦‍♂️ i didnt see that the link @cold galleon gave is to the other mod....
@cold galleon i was speaking about this mod -> https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/17vcfbu/stalker_shadow_of_chernobyl_update/

[orchid berry]

No worries

[ebon tusk]

just use compass on SOC:U 1.4

[worldly storm]

or you can disable lumen completely and get stable 90 fps without FG xD

[simple thistle]

There's that too 😂 You could use Screen space lighting tho as well and it won't look like that at least lol, won't look as good as lumen tho

[worldly storm]

am... game already uses only screen space lighting... that's why we have ghosting and weird incorrect indoors lights

[simple thistle]

Screen space lighting might not be the right term, but there's a way to disable lumen entirely and use a different lighting method

[worldly storm]

no there is no, you can only disable indirect light by r.Lumen.DiffuseIndirect.Allow 0

and you will lost 80% of the shadows

[simple thistle]

It disables ray tracing tho

which is most of the performance issues at least, but doesn't look as good

[worldly storm]

only for indirect light

[worldly storm]

gives me only 5-10 fps on 4070

so nope

[simple thistle]

gives me 15 on a 4080 super

[worldly storm]

there is some performance issue with direct light computation in this game

cuz with fully disabled Lumen in test exe I'm getting +40-50 fps

and screen space Lumen looks like LSD trip... so I hope they'll enable hardware RT in next updates

[simple thistle]

It uses hardware RT already......

[worldly storm]

set it to 0 - 0 changes

so nope

[simple thistle]

That's because you can't change it in runtime, game would have to be re-compiled

and if it was disabled, it would be set to 0

[worldly storm]

lol no, you can, that's what this command IS for

[simple thistle]

No, the command is primarily there for using it while making a game with Unreal Editor, hence why a lot of the 'X' commands don't return anything, because they will only return it in the Editor

There's quite a few commands that won't work properly because they're being run in a compiled game, and not editor

[worldly storm]

nope again to ENABLE hardware raytracing you need to set this flag

and this can't be changed in runtime

[simple thistle]

uh huh, and they did, which is why the ProjectSettings has r.Lumen.HardwareRayTracing set to 1, why would it be set to 1 if it wasn't actually enabled?

The devs set it to 1 before compiling

[worldly storm]

r.Lumen.HardwareRayTracing changes this flag mate

[simple thistle]

.....which is hardware raytracing

[worldly storm]

which will do nothing without this

[simple thistle]

So again, why would they have the first one enabled, if they didn't check the second one too

[worldly storm]

idk, ask GSC

my guess some consoles problems

[cold galleon]

It's still the same link.

[hollow fog]

oh really? i thought 1.0.2 english translator mod IS JUST FOR TRANSLATING TO ENGLISH LANGUAGE. and i thought that 1.0.2 graphical update mod is not even finished and released yet.

[cold galleon]

Me when not reading:

[torn thistle]

Is there any mod to make this full height?

[hollow fog]

i actually read them all 🙂

[hollow fog]

ive sent a suggestion to gsc that would be really nice if we could adjust the size of the inventory interface and of the items in the inventory too

[torn thistle]

Hopefully we can rotate items in storage at some point as well

[radiant nimbus]

OP OGSR just looks better than S2 fr

[muted estuary]

Anyone know if its possible yet in stalker 2 without actual mod support to change the point at which the Walk transitions into Run or SlowRun when using a controller/analog stick?
not the animations, the actual parameter being called. I'm working on a stamina mod but walk transitions to "Run" on an analog stick at about 2/3 distance to the edge
I can delay the animation until the the outer edge of the analog stick, but can't find a parameter for changing the actual speed/stamina drain transition in objprototype or corevariables

[hollow fog]

hope that the items will look smaller and wont reset their positions to random ones all the time too

[cold galleon]

I meant myself.

Question.
How to increase mutant loot drop chance in Stalker clear sky?

[upbeat coral]

thats like asking how to increase population of Dodos

you dont

there arent any

[hollow fog]

wish stalker 2 had mutant loot 😦

[raw nexus]

better than this???

and this

[upbeat coral]

ngl

yeah

OP OGSR does look better

[raw nexus]

i disagree

[raw nexus]

so a game with graphics that look like 2014 look better than 2024 graphics

[tawdry umbra]

I think the shader is slightly better on the 2014 but I prefer the details and models of the new one

[raw nexus]

the game is from 2009 the mod makes it look like 2014

[upbeat coral]

OP OGSR is just better game overall

[raw nexus]

better than stalker 2

[upbeat coral]

yes

[raw nexus]

i respect ur very wrong opinion

how do i know what kino means idk every ancient rusted stalker mod from 2007

[rich knot]

Heard that OP has like 500+ hours of content per playthrough. Also I am guessing this used the Ogsr engine which gives better stability and is a better engine all around.

go ahead

what does dynamic weather do again

i think it comes with kireina's merge

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/164

I my most biased opinion is one of the best mods out there (not just a cfg edit). All kidding aside i want more people to give me feedback.

[drowsy sorrel]

Ah would need to play more to vote

[proven lantern]

You can vote on base weathers too. I just want ot get a feeling for the general opinion on things. I can take the weathers to more realistic (more open skies, less crazy intense weather) or to more atmospheric/oppressive

[raw nexus]

its fine

but i would be happy to have a mod to make it ultra realistic like real life

and a mod wich makes lightning like real life

[rose pilot]

are there any mod/scripts for toggle lean/aim for SoC?
I've found this script for anomaly but it doesn't work on SoC
https://www.nexusmods.com/stalkeranomaly/mods/25

[patent apex]

why did you try to use a script for a mod for a different engine

[rose pilot]

because I have no idea what I'm doing

[long isle]

I unpacked configs.db of Clear Sky and then, after modifying it, repacked it with socpup by MetaCognix...but it's larger than 65535 bytes so it doesn't patch; how do I fix this?

[hoary lintel]

i have started a new anomaly playthrough sunk some hours into, but I can't remember if I have chosen hard or normal combat diff. I wanted hard, and I don't want to restart, any way to check?

[patent apex]

just start a new game, check the settings, then compare it to your current game

[hoary lintel]

thanks, dispersion factors are the same. is there a setting for enemy tankiness? i'm asking because a psy sucker went down after two bullets from glock 17, I don't remember them being so fragile

[unkempt grove]

Anyone here tested the balance on the weapon caliber mods for stalker 2?

[drowsy sorrel]

Yes is very good, granted i have only been in the lesser zone area

[cold galleon]

I can open their inventory.
I think it's because I installed the arsenal overhaul mod.

[shy tinsel]

Hello there! I am new to modding, but i want to research and make some mods for stalker 2. Already run FModel and somehow see the game items but still have questions, maybe someone can help me?

1. Where i can find CoreVariables.cfg in sources?
2. How to pack modes back?
3. Hos using FModel unpack files from .pak?

Or maybe some usefull links?

[upbeat coral]

hmm

this one is for CoP
Maybe you can adapt it
https://mega.nz/#F!Rl8EAKQS!u3zM-kF5OvX2lwrW86voqA

or just take the files from SoC that are responsible

[cold galleon]

I have another question.
The traders are barely giving me pennies.
Is there a way to increase trade value so I can sell stuff for more money?

[cold galleon]

The folder is empty.

[wicked marsh]

I wish there was a mod for different reloading animations . It's kinda off putting when i reload for example my AR416 and he just drops the mag with bullets in it .... :S

[upbeat coral]

joever

[simple thistle]

So does r.Lumen.ScreenProbeGather.RadianceCache.ProbeResolution have to be a power of 2? 16 and 32 don't look too different, but anything inbetween those 2 numbers makes the scene look really dark wherever there isn't light directly shining on it

[upbeat coral]

well they give pennies for stuff other than artifacts

if they gave decent price for guns it would break the economy

[cold galleon]

I just want some money to break even on my ammo.

🥺

[cold galleon]

Can you please tell me what I need to change?
I want just a little more money.

[upbeat coral]

dont know

[upbeat coral]

just hunt for artifacts

its not like CS economy is harsh

[young fable]

why the heck i cant upload any picture here bruh

[upbeat coral]

[young fable]

its still processing wth

total discord death

kill discord, roundhouse discord,slam discord head into concrete walls

[simple thistle]

There seems to be discord between you and Discord

[cold galleon]

I do.
I quite enjoy artifact hunting.
I just want a little bit more money.

And it's hard during early game without anti radiation armour.

I'm just asking which files and lines I'd need to edit.

[upbeat coral]

first artifact you get in the game has antirad properties

you silly billy

well Im not really sure where the sell prices are adjusted

never tried modding CS

[cold galleon]

@ebon tusk
Do you know how I can change trader files to get more profit from selling items?

[neon socket]

i personally use heart of cinders, very good

[sour latch]

@upbeat coral replaying golden sphere and damn the mod is pretty intensive on my gpu for no reason

[sour latch]

also the start bugged out lol, they left the door wide open and the ai was not triggered to shoot me

[upbeat coral]

thats what you get for playing OGSR version

also default grass settings are rather high, so that may be why the GPU is under load

also also, most settings are rather high actually

[sour latch]

I didn't know there was a non ogsr version

I thought I was playing the one recommended to me

what do you suggest I play then

[upbeat coral]

umm

how to put it

finding the OGSR version is like 20 more times complicated

I dont know how you managed to install it without sstumbling upon OGSE

[sour latch]

I think I'm stupid

[upbeat coral]

nothing new :3

[sour latch]

UR SO MEAN

[upbeat coral]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/goldsphere-completion/downloads

dont quicksave

[sour latch]

anyway I'm trying to find gophers key

[upbeat coral]

always press ESC and then F8

[sour latch]

but I'm guessing they changed the location in ogsr

[upbeat coral]

best way to avoid save corruption

[upbeat coral]

no

still in the bush

[sour latch]

I looked in the bush, not there

do I need to be a on a certain mission or smth?

[upbeat coral]

it is

no

a small box/bag in the bush

its hard to spot

[sour latch]

I'm looking in the bush

no bag or box

[upbeat coral]

[sour latch]

ITS NOT THERE

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME

[upbeat coral]

look at the bush from south east

[upbeat coral]

thats it
im gonna boot up the mod

[sour latch]

I can't read the compass

Idk if it's using russian or numbers

either way idk what it says

[upbeat coral]

they are always at the same spot

north is ALWAYS at north

[sour latch]

I'm telling you I don't see it

[sour latch]

how would I know they devs didn't change it though

or the compass spins

I would never know

[upbeat coral]

north = up

towards the CNPP

south = down
towards the Cordon checkpoint

[sour latch]

I'm looking in the bush and I cannot find the item you're talking about

are you sure it doesn't just spawn in for a mission?

I ended up quitting this mod months back because of this

[upbeat coral]

the mission is to find Gophers key
so yes, it spawns in for that mission

[sour latch]

guh

so how do I get the mission then I don't remember

I have a feeling I'm not going to like this mod

[sour latch]

why didn't you tell me that in the first place? would have saved me a lot of headache

[upbeat coral]

youre literally doing the mission

._.

[sour latch]

no?

I don't think so

I'm super confused rn

need I remind you that if you aren't super specific with me I will simply not function

[upbeat coral]

#🔩┃trilogy_modifications message

[sour latch]

yeah

[sour latch]

cause I remembered there was a key to get in the house

and the doll said to go in the corner house

so I decided to look it up

[upbeat coral]

talk to everyone in the village

[sour latch]

I already got off the mod

[upbeat coral]

especially the guys in the basement

[sour latch]

can you recommend mods that I will actually enjoy instead of this slop

[upbeat coral]

first of all

it isnt slop

[sour latch]

no wonder I quit oml

[sour latch]

sorry but I have nothing but bad memories from it

[upbeat coral]

second of all
you got filtered by simple quest because you didnt even tell me whats wrong

uhh
simple mods hmm

[upbeat coral]

The Exception maybe

[sour latch]

that doesn't help my extreme confusion but aight

[sour latch]

good

[upbeat coral]

just talk to everyone

get the task to find Gopher

[sour latch]

I already got off, I don't want to play that trash mod again

[upbeat coral]

and then look for the key

[sour latch]

there is a reason I have only bad memories of it

[upbeat coral]

youre doing stuff out of order

its like if I rushed to Pripyat in SoC without meeting guide and then wondered why the decoder isnt there

[sour latch]

I'll give the exception a go ig but I tend not to be a fan of modding

[sour latch]

I'm used to games being fine with me doing stuff out of order

idk these were usually games that actually rewarded me exploring

[upbeat coral]

Goldsphere does that
but some stuff has to be done logically

EG you first accept a task before looking for task speciific item

[sour latch]

this chat might be about to jump me for having a opinion, oh no

[upbeat coral]

most stalker mods are like that

[rich knot]

Winter sniper is pretty simple and it's good, but it is really short.

[sour latch]

eh doesn't matter to me at least

besides that I want to stop talking about the mod

[upbeat coral]

its not even a main task

[sour latch]

I already got rid of it, no need to continue talking about something I hate

[sour latch]

I'll give it a go

[young fable]

damn what a shit day

[sour latch]

I am a being of extreme anger currently

[young fable]

i cant upload my picture

[upbeat coral]

joever

send in DMs
Ill upload it

[young fable]

i cant synchronize my steam cloud

[young fable]

bro no matter what server

it cant

[upbeat coral]

lemme try

[sour latch]

I'm gonna get off since I'm immensely frustrated and pissed off everyone here 😭 gotta leave the server and change my identity, I messed up
hiding time

[rich knot]

It is just that picture or is for all pictures?

[young fable]

all type of pictures

except link

i guess internet on crack rn

[sour latch]

I'm highly paranoid

[upbeat coral]

youre Australian right?

[rich knot]

Damn

[upbeat coral]

Omg
Cat

[upbeat coral]

Omg
Cat

[young fable]

like cordon commander says

what a shit day

[rich knot]

TODAY HAS BEEN THE SHІTTІEST DAY IN MY CRAPPY LIFE

[sour latch]

yes

[upbeat coral]

I would be paranoid too if a huntsman spider the size of Toyota Corola could break through wall of my house and eat my dog at any given moment

[sour latch]

no I mean I'm paranoid in general

[ebon tusk]

for Xray stalker of Unreal Engine Stalker?

[upbeat coral]

for Clear Sky

[cold galleon]

Stalker Clear Sky

[ebon tusk]

unpack the resources.db with your unpacker, go to configs/misc/trade
should be there

the price for each item is specified in their own ltx object

the trader ltx should have the quantity and multiplier for the sale/buy

[cold galleon]

I know it's in traders' ltx.
I just don't know which.

[young fable]

FINALLY I CAN SEND IMAGE NOW

[young fable]

DEI but stalker

[restive sinew]
