via console?

[loud breach]

any way to fix the loud footsteps?

[upbeat coral]

you cant "fix" something that isnt broken in the first place

[loud breach]

it's utter crap

also, this

idk if that's original devs work but they copy pasted his face lmao

you can even count the wrinkles

[upbeat coral]

yes
GSC literally modeled it after him
think they even used his pictures for textures

[loud breach]

it couldn't be more obvious that they did lol

why tho

[upbeat coral]

you could ask that for a lot of stuff in OL

why are the dwarves building guns

why are they fighting dogs

[loud breach]

dwarves always build guns

[upbeat coral]

why are they being led by fascist burer

[fallow sedge]

Idk if you’re joking but it’s actually him.

[loud breach]

I recognized him after like 5 seconds

[neat dune]

59face has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[loud breach]

TOAD

lol

[upbeat coral]

they were released one by one

as updates

the second mod was supposed to be part of first one

so theres some time between each of them, makes sense stuff changed a bit

I liked them all tho

altho I wish they did bit more with Dark Valley
like they did with Cordon

[upbeat coral]

theres the hater

well yeah
it got flaws
but its still an exceptional mod

but you thought it

I think

to be fair you can say that about most mods

Spatial Anomaly is really well done for stalker modding standards

not that Goldsphere isnt, I still love the mod, mainly the tasks and world
but still

you should play shit Zaurus made back in the day

that should lower your expectations enough

and you will see how long way modding has come

at least when it comes to story mods

freeplay is still complete and garbage just like it was back in the day

well theres only so much you can do with CoP Alife

its not dead but...

its far from SoC levels of life

literally CoP

[upbeat coral]

Nah
Thats peak

I love them magic guns

[upbeat coral]

This was already used in OGSE

And probably even before

Its crazy how old some of the modded assets are

[modern dew]

Hey guys. Is there a mod for CoP that brings back mutant looting?

[upbeat coral]

You want a mod that does just that or a mod that does more things, mutant looting being just one of them?

[modern dew]

a mod that does just mutant looting

but I'm open for other suggestions too

[upbeat coral]

No no
Just these stairs

[upbeat coral]

I dont think there isnt one
Modders usually create it from scratch for their mods
Altho IX-Ray (upgraded version of X-Ray engine) has base set up for this feature

As for the bigger mods that include this (that I liked) would be
Road to the North
Dollchan 8: Infinity
Thorny Way
The Exception

The diggers station is bar_stalker
It appears in tons of mods
Forgot who made the map tho

Return to the Zone or Trapped being just two of many examples of mods that use the map

Well
Now you can safely watch the teaser
Without spoiling yourself

https://youtu.be/0oHVqFXrnVE?si=ErETcKkUp2sydus7

Dang
Just advanced to level 60
What do I win?

Yes

Cant wait for the mod
Just hope they use x64 engine this time

Yes

I havent seen it anywhere yet

But then it could be just a new bit in an old location
Like the Final Day bunker in Cordon
If I saw just that I wouldnt know what map its in

4th chapter is in bildo Dark Valley right?

Yes
I believe they will be

The one you wake up at after leaving the anomaly?

Yeah
Thats Dark Valley from old builds of Oblivion Lost

Hater

Bildo maps >>>>>> release maps

What about this tho
You dont like bildo, you dont like release
So maybe, just maybe you may like some modded versions

Too bad
The mod its from never got finished

I may share some pictures if I get it to work in the SDK

Altho
I think Global War has the map

We probably wont
Since Beasts main goal was to leave the area

Altho
You maybe get back there when exiting the lab
Depending on where the next mod starts

Dunno
Been a long time since I played
Also theres more endings iirc

But I may just be confused

As always

What 40 story mods does to a mf

You mean Stronglav

He do be drippy

Did you know there also exists a model of controller with bandit drip

But its barely used anywhere

Fotograf

In pseudodogs butt

Its one of the few mods on my wall of shame

Thats mods I dropped mid playthrough

I softlocked myself by eating the only condensed milk that you can get in the first map because I needed it for main quest

And I didnt feel like running 4 hours at snails pace around the first map again

I was not having fun

Yeah

If someone remade Fotograf and got rid of softlocks, terrible backtracking and boring grind I would play it

Well

I think theres four mods on my wall of shame as of now

Technically five but one of them I want to play, just not now

Fotograf, In Spite of the Death: In Hells Center, In Spite of the Death: Novice and Search: Dies Irae

Yeah
Their maps are great
But their first mod was boring as hell
And when I saw the second one had nearly identical beginning I quit it too

But still
They made some of the best modded maps to date
Like Valley of Whispers, labs X-5 and X-14, Topi and much more

And also did some of the coolest reworks of vanilla maps
Like their connected Rostok which unites Bar with Wild Territory and even puts the Multiplayer Rostok north of Wild Territory

Or the expanded Cordon which features cool changes to a lot of places
Theres a sinkhole under the railway bridge with anomaly field around it
Theres an underground tunnel network under the map and also a new small bar at thr ATP
And southern checkpoint got major overhaul featuring a big ass wall

Well
They made a bunch of mods
And I enjoyed them (except for ISOTD1 and 2)

Valley of Whispers was really nice, with some cool details
Path in the Mist was also cool with new features and very nice technical stuff

All the mods are nice, stories are decent (altho endings are usually bit disappointing)

Heres more examples of their work

Anyways

Peakest of the peak

But to be real

I mostly enjoyed it for the atmosphere and side content

Seeing the story mainly as something to push me forward more than anything else

[upbeat coral]

The Dark Valley I showed you was also made by them

Well the mod was never finished
But many made it into other mods
Especially recently

Shadows Valley, Agroprom, Agrokat, Garbage, promzona, Rostok, Canyon, Poselok_Ug, Okrest and deadlake were all used in The Exception

While Collaider and Okrest were used in Atribut

Along some more probably
But I didnt play the mod yet since its more of a tech demo

Thats the Southern Town

Really cool map

Well its just shrimpossible really
Well
If you set the entire mod in just that one map then it could be cool
But usually its not

But then
The Exception had no sidequests and all side content was looking for artifacts and unique mutants
The mod forced you to explore and it worked really well with these maps

Anyways

[dry shoal]

Some Modding advice please.. for Clear Sky, SoC and CoP

Just finisned 2nd playthrough of Stalker 2 and have decided to let it and mods cook for abit.. I'm looking for suggestions on mods, to make the gameplay experience abit more pleasant. I've heard the gunplay in Clear Sky, is horrible.

I see there is a mod called Radiophobia3 for SoC also, that I will look into.

What are you recommendations of you good people? Any experience with Radiophobia.

I'm leaving Anomaly for a completely different experience, I have played GAMMA before, but I want to play the storyline as intended.

Your advice is greatly appreciated.

[wind scaffold]

If you never played original trilogy, play it vanilla, without any mods, even without any RP mods. Just pure vanilla. Other mods changes too much.

[wind scaffold]

Also, i dont understand where gunplay in CS is horrible. Except some balance issues (you can play all game with three rifles.) its good game, no other issues.

[civic pewter]

For a second playthrough of the Original Trilogy:
OGSR Rearmed (Shadow of Chernobyl)
Clear Sky Revision (Peak) or Last Fallout Overhaul (Clear Sky)
Some SiGerous Mod or AMK Devolution 2.0 (Call of Pripyat)

For a first playthrough:
Vanilla
Vanilla
Vanilla
Shadow of Chernobyl Update 1.4.2
Memories of The Zone (SoC)
Sky Renewal Mod (CS)
GSWR Wasted Sky (CoP)

[dry shoal]

Are you saying play them all vanilla for first time? or use those mods you listed for a first playthrough?

[dry shoal]

Ok, thanks for advice

[civic pewter]

I prefer recommend play vanilla before of any mods, if you don't like the vanilla games maybe need try some mod

[dry shoal]

Nothing broken that just needs outright fixed? I'm starting with Clear Sky, I know the story, so nothing is to be ruined, and it just makes sense in my head to play chronologically

[civic pewter]

My first playthrough of Clear Sky was very estable for me, without crashes and with minimal bugs

And if you have bad experience with the bugs exist SRP, Sky Reclamation Project is like a patch

[dry shoal]

Ok sweet, thanks for advice.. I'm gonna start vanilla run, right now

[dry shoal]

I only finished Stalker 2 about 30 mins ago and I'm having withdrawals already.. I think I'm in love

[wind scaffold]

Start with Shadow of Chernobyl. Clear Sky is straight update of Shadow of Chernobyl gameplay.

[weary raptor]

current state of mod's

fix the game
that is all.

[wind scaffold]

What ?

[weary raptor]

do they speak English in what?

[wind scaffold]

Are you okay ? What do you mean by your first message ?

[weary raptor]

stalker 2
all the mods are just fixing the game
O.o didn't think it was a hard concept to grasp

every other stalker game in a shell nutt

[dry shoal]

I played it with a number of mods, technically is wasn't even Stalker 2 anymore.. I more meant the franchise that I'm in love with

[wind scaffold]

If you out of nowhere say it, without any context it will be hard to grasp. We mostly talk about mods on original trilogy.

[weary raptor]

was I suppose to read all of chat?

[wind scaffold]

Then dont wonder that people dont understand you.

[weary raptor]

whats to understand?

[wind scaffold]

...

[weary raptor]

current state of mod's

fix the game
that is all.

[wind scaffold]

Mods do more than that. Have you seen goldensphere, wind of time, valley of whispers, oblivion lost remake ?

[weary raptor]

#🔩┃trilogy_modifications message

ever think they will fix the radial spawns in stalker 2 with mods? I hope so.

[blazing lichen]

@weary raptor it's important to remember aswell the SDK isn't out yet so modding is limited atm

[wind scaffold]

Be more correct then.
"Current state of Stalker 2 mod's".

[blazing lichen]

I wish DocX was alive imagine stalker 2 CoTZ

[weary raptor]

bumner
its prob a stretch to think ue 5 dev's are out thier in the wild modding 2

[blazing lichen]

I have faith they'll release it at some point remember skyrims creation kit was released I think in Feb 2012

[weary raptor]

eh, in 2012 Bethesda wasn't owned by Microsoft
and given how money hungry the machine is I doubt we will see it for five years.

[blazing lichen]

I'm just saying no game ships with mod tools on launch

[weary raptor]

doom 2016

[blazing lichen]

Ah fair dooms uninteresting to me so never look into it

Was more so using it as an example

I'd love if stalker 2 got op2 version one day

Or like teamlite 2

[weary raptor]

kinda wish every game dropped with source code

[blazing lichen]

Would be awesome tbh

The worst is gamma and anything related to anomaly

[weary raptor]

I just want 1 single mod that makes hybrid sights work.
The g36 is unusable with out it

[blazing lichen]

Ngl even In alot of mods this feature is super slept on

[weary raptor]

i liked the compleat mod

[blazing lichen]

I sentence you to play DSH @sick sand

[blazing lichen]

Which game? I think all 3 have a complete

[weary raptor]

yes

coc wasent that bad either

[blazing lichen]

If you didn't mind CoC I recommend Call of the zone if you haven't played it it has the best quest system it's the gold standard of freeplay mods Imo teamlite and legends return are a close second also based off of CoC

[weary raptor]

is look into yes

[fallow sedge]

To be completely fair GSC did promise mod tools at launch

Back in like 2021

Maybe even 2020

[blazing lichen]

ah i take this back then

wasnt aware

[fallow sedge]

They had a quote in FAQ saying that full modding capabilities will come later but some tools will be available from the release.

Of course a lot changed since then.

[loud breach]

debatable lol

[wind scaffold]

no. In clear sky appears new features like upgrade, repair, detectors, some artefacts changed. I recommend to play in release order, not story chronological order.

[loud breach]

I know, I played all 3 games. Personally I'm not a fan of upgrades, I like the "unique weapon" system from SoC better.

[wind scaffold]

Same.

[loud breach]

Maybe I'd like it more if they combined the two systems together where you could find unique rifles AND also upgrade them.

[wind scaffold]

But games needed it. Need another way to spend money.

[loud breach]

It's not a bad system, I'm just not big on repair/crafting systems I guess.

[wind scaffold]

Wait, in CoP you can find some unique weapons, no ? Like gunslinger rifle.

And you can upgrade it.

[loud breach]

huh

must be a mod thing

I never saw the word "gunslinger" uttered in CoP.

[wind scaffold]

Strelok rifle.

[loud breach]

add real estate like in Vice City

[loud breach]

in CoP? where?

[wind scaffold]

https://stalker.fandom.com/wiki/Strelok's_SGI-5k

[loud breach]

oh, I must've missed it then

[wind scaffold]

there is some unique weapons, but less than in SHoC. But to be fair, in SHoC its like riffle with built in silencer or scope, or riffle that shoot faster. There less unique weapons because you can make this kind of unique weapons yourself through upgrades.

I thought about that idea: Anomaly weapons. Like some weapons taken from anomalies and they have very unique effects. Dont really know what kind of effects will be suitable for stalker, but its should be made at some point. Ghost have unique armor from anomaly.

[upbeat coral]

CS gunplay is good
People who say its bad are idiots who overlook the upgrade system

[loud breach]

you still need a decent gun to upgrade, upgrading trash guns doesn't do anything

[wind scaffold]

Obviously. In SHoC the same. You dont expect perfect accuracy from starting weapons.

[wind scaffold]

Can you help me ? Why you like Road to the North ? Isnt it same as misery ? Item bloat, transparent interface. Additionally, personal pain, stupid zoom that dont zoom up, so you can aim better, but zoom out.

[loud breach]

It's not obvious. I didn't expect to throw out a fully upgraded gun because it turned out to be crap.

[wind scaffold]

Your problem. Go find better gun.

Have same situation.

[loud breach]

Gee, why didn't I know upgrades are useless.

[wind scaffold]

They are useful on good gun, to make it even better.

[loud breach]

[wind scaffold]

I only now found out this. There is not one Sigerous mod, not two, but THREE! For each game of the trilogy! It was mindblowing for me.

[upbeat coral]

I liked it because of the story
All these downsides I can get over if the story is good enough or theres enough cool ideas

And while bloat is definitely a problem with CoM, what I see as bigger problem is that people rarely ever add anything meaningful to their forks of CoM
Resulting in item bloat quite literally being the gameplay

With RTTN thats not the case

[upbeat coral]

You can get AC-96/2 before even entering Dark Valley for the first time

If you dont completely ignore every side task and activity, you wont be in need of a good gun

[loud breach]

you can get a Vintorez before you even leave the swamps

[upbeat coral]

I meant a gun in usable shape

Dont think its worth fixing that gun up

Especially when Forester will give you an upgraded variant for free

[rich gate]

this draw distance looks like dogwater what is this

[upbeat coral]

Lmao

[rich gate]

I am trying to look for a fix but cant find it

[upbeat coral]

[loud breach]

post the "after" screen once you find it

[rich gate]

yeah I dont think I will

[vernal sphinx]

Stalkers help

[rich gate]

lol

[vernal sphinx]

Look I need to disable safe zones

What do I need to turn off here

[upbeat coral]

In which game?

[vernal sphinx]

Anomaly because Call of Pripyat did this

[upbeat coral]

First of all

[vernal sphinx]

So some guys advised to use anomaly

So I found it

[upbeat coral]

Anomaly is bloated dogshit and looking for anything in its configs is pain

[vernal sphinx]

Can I just delete this file for a minute?

And then put it back

[upbeat coral]

Anyone who told you to look there when CoC exists is dumb

[vernal sphinx]

Its OGSR

[upbeat coral]

Just open the script
And show me the files

[vernal sphinx]

This is the script that makes the game make the character draw the weapon

[upbeat coral]

Ill look in a bit

[vernal sphinx]

Thx

How did you learn code?

Is it harder than learning blender?

[upbeat coral]

I didnt
But most of these scripts are somewhat simple

[loud breach]

I thought you pasted in those 5 screenshots of the code because you had something specific in mind

[upbeat coral]

Honestly it would probably be better to look for the file that defines where safezones are rather than turning them off alltogether

[vernal sphinx]

This will be harder, I will try thx!

[upbeat coral]

Well
Since Im no coder I cant be sure, but I think this should do the trick

why do you need it tho?

[vernal sphinx]

make 3-5 shorts

Can I advertise something?

[upbeat coral]

oh

[vernal sphinx]

Since I post shorts daily anyway

[upbeat coral]

I thought youre making a mod

[vernal sphinx]

And since I don't advertise anything anyway rn

[vernal sphinx]

: ) I would love but its such a big task,, I will stick to contect creating and if I learn a bit of blender I can make more cool stalker content

[upbeat coral]

anyways
I edited line 78 from this "self.state = state_inside" to this "self.state = state_outside"

the line is responsible for changing the state once a player enters certain area

now even after entering the game will think hes outside

[vernal sphinx]

Thx : )

[upbeat coral]

I have no idea if it will work

[vernal sphinx]

Let's see

Okay but next problem

NPC still have infinite hp

[upbeat coral]

yeah

forgot what file is responsible for that

[vernal sphinx]

Lets find it (I willfind)

Sky Renewal Mod installation assistance please.. as far as I'm aware I followed instructions correctly.. "Delete (or move) your vanilla bin folder
Extract all the folders in the root path. " So, I removed the bin folder and extracted everything in the download, tried to run via launcher.exe and I get a pop up window, but I can't do anything, there's no run button, I click on new game, nothing happens. I click on laod game, there's nothing in window. Can anyone pls tell me what I'm doing wrong. Can't run game it just crashes.

Pretty please

Some screenshots if helps.. I've tried a number of times now, re-downloaded file numerous times, as well as installing, deleting folder and re-installing game each time I try

no mod even uses misc folder
like NO MOD EVER

for clarity, the "misc" folder would be localized within gamedata/configs

It even has the threaded barrel upgrade

I have yet to find a suppressor for it

[upbeat coral]

I never understood what the appeal of so many attachments is in mods tbh

Like
Who has fun looking for single super specific attachments to put on his single gun

Thats why I like Jekans system
STCOP weapon pack guns but without all those unecessary attachments
Only few different scopes for western and eastern guns each
And a universal silencer

[arctic zealot]

Tarkov influence probably

irl gun enjoyers like the detail I guess

[upbeat coral]

Nah

It was already a thing with STCOP weapon pack

And that thing is lot older than Tarkov

Not sure when the first version came out
But 2.5 is from 2015, and the current version is 3.7 so..

[arctic zealot]

It's not necessarily about what came out earlier

but what popularized it more

I didn't even know about that mod until you told me

[upbeat coral]

STCOP is pretty much the best and most popular gun mod for Call of Pripyat

[arctic zealot]

that's why I am a novice and you're a master

[upbeat coral]

It was already popular half a decade before tarkov players even flooded the community

[arctic zealot]

stalker inspired tarkov, more news at 10

[upbeat coral]

Horrible thought

[exotic spruce]

I agree but it's pretty silly to me tbh

Just the thought of slapping so many attachments

It's purposefully bad and I love it

[GUNSLINGER] How do I fix the missing textures on Winchester 1300? I've already reinstalled the game through the updater

[viscid viper]

Don't ask why, but is there a mod for anomaly that allows traders to be companions?

[rich gate]

no

[viscid viper]

Dang

[wind scaffold]

Ask on anomaly server.

[viscid viper]

I did, no one answered

Well trying again doesn't hurt

[wind scaffold]

Kill GUNSLINGER.

[rich gate]

I have beaten up other factions so hard that certain factions just either made an alliance or cease-fire

including mercs

[raw nexus]

had the same issue there is no fix

[unborn ledge]

Path in the mist thingamabob

can you tell me what to do im too pea brained

[rich gate]

the amount of stuff he sells

[upbeat coral]

you dont
Gunslinger is unfinished mess

just in case tho

run the update checker

[rich gate]

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE

[wheat haven]

Oh yeah I remember that thing 💀

Just look for solution on YT, not worth to scratch your head because of that

[wheat haven]

Nimblechad

[exotic spruce]

Didn't work, luckily other shotguns are alright soooo

[wheat haven]

Neutral with the Monolith?!
How the...

🥴

[rich gate]

oh no thats goodwill at the player tab

look at Loner

[wheat haven]

Oh ok

[rich gate]

and yes loners are enemies with us

for some reason they got angry at me attacking the dark valley base

[wheat haven]

One of them accidently got a bullet from you, I guess

Stuff happens

[rich gate]

no

all of them were bandits

they didnt like that I cleared out a bandit base

it also resulted in clear sky allying with me when Freedom declared war

[wheat haven]

Must be a bug consequences of psi-storm

[rich gate]

I just think Lukash had some mad kush from the bandits

must of shot a dealer

[wheat haven]

And why do you use three guns? lol?

[rich gate]

What the pistol shotgun and rifle?

That's normal for IWP, it has a separate slot for a pistol

[wheat haven]

Yeah like
Why do you need a pistol? 🤭

[rich gate]

Backup

[wheat haven]

Eh

[rich gate]

You gotta stay strapped in the zone

[wheat haven]

I usually have a shotgun as a sidearm

[rich gate]

This place is worse than the hood

Same, but I still carry a pistol around cause I can, and it's a good backup if I got no ammo

[upbeat coral]

in most mods that dont use vanlla guns, pulling out pistol is significantly faster than pulling out a rifle

also often times small enemies like tushkans arent worth wasting rifle ammo

[wheat haven]

RPK is a problem solver wherever you are

[wheat haven]

Just as IRL lol

[upbeat coral]

yes

3 gun slots are something cool but barely any mods do it

[wheat haven]

Knife-fu also works

[upbeat coral]

ehh

[wheat haven]

My forays into the Zone are pretty ascetic
So I can take more stuff to sell

[wheat haven]

Waste not, want not

[unborn ledge]

not like I can find a vid covering it lmao

[wheat haven]

Well I can help with it

If you want

[unborn ledge]

im gonna hop to bed so just dm me how to do it so I can progress with the mod

[wheat haven]

Sure thing m8

[wind scaffold]

What name of the mod ?

[rich gate]

IWP

[pine dust]

Okay, yall were right, complete suks ass

And

Clear sky❌️
Bug sky ✅

So I just put a few weapons mods, and increased the difficulty for my second playthrough of SoC

[wooden gulch]

What weapon mod ya runnin?

[pine dust]

Owr3 ported to soc

Plus some increased damage and accuracy mods

[wooden gulch]

I like OWR3. Tried Arsenal Overhaul but didn't like how big it was

[pine dust]

Yeah, It's really nice

[wooden gulch]

#ShamelessPlug - I recently made a mod for OWR3 that throws a full-autp PB near Rookie Village if that interests you

Custom named variant

Swaps the normal PB in the van near where you give the loner the medkit for mine

It's on ModDB

[wooden gulch]

You run any other mods than just that or nah?

[pine dust]

Zrp ig but yeah nothing other

[wooden gulch]

Noice

I use OWR3+ZRP as a base

Than I merge in wtv I like and can find

Some things are harder to merge in than others tho

If somethings too hard, I give up on it and settle

[pine dust]

Uh huh

[pine dust]

https://tenor.com/view/nuh-uh-beocord-no-lol-gif-24435520

[blazing lichen]

clear sky is PEAK

[upbeat coral]

real

[pine dust]

Just because its buggy doesnt mean it bad 😐

[upbeat coral]

its not even buggy tho

[pine dust]

But it buggy as hell, the second i fix the fsgame.ltx issue, it wants me to find something nonexistent

Sum system.ltx in gamedata folder, which aint even there

It does not want to run, so i wont

run it

[upbeat coral]

Well thats not the games fault

Heck its not even bugs

Its just missing files because your install is messed up

Thats like if you blamed your car for the quality of roads

[blazing lichen]

yeah thats a verify installation moment

[wind scaffold]

I tried to install Doom's merge mod but it crashes every time i try to run it.

This what it says.

[ebon tusk]

send us the log, this didnt tell us much

[wind scaffold]

How to do it ?

Found it.

This ?

[frosty ivy]

So I have zrp on my soc playthrough. I want to also get memories of the zone. Is there a possibility to get it into my save? Moddb says zrp is included in memories of the zone

[wind scaffold]

Just install Memories of the zone then. Its your first playthrough ?

[frosty ivy]

So I just extract then drag the memories of the zone “appdata” to the current appdata which is from zrp?

Yea it’s my first

[wind scaffold]

Play vanilla. Dont play modded.

[frosty ivy]

It’s so clunky I can’t stand it

[wind scaffold]

Dont even know what you talk about.

[frosty ivy]

So how do I install memories if the zone over my current zrp?

[wind scaffold]

Play vanilla. You dont need mods.

[wind scaffold]

(Delete ZRP install Memories of the zone. Not recommended. Play vanilla.)

[blazing lichen]

vanilla soc is peak

[ebon tusk]

are you sure you installed the translation correctly? if yes, its missing a file, specifically, ui_st_mm_mp.xml

[wind scaffold]

So, problem is translation ? I have russian version, mod, i suppose, for english version.

[ebon tusk]

well it is looking into the eng files not the ru ones
go into the gamedata folder and look for a localization.ltx
if its not there then that means you are probably using a eng ver of the game for a ru mod

unpack the gamedata files to find the localization ltx and change the eng to ru and it should now work

[wind scaffold]

Thanks.

[neat dune]

kacapina_ has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[rich gate]

we are rich

[blazing lichen]

ayo damn nice

[rich gate]

OOraaaaaah!

Bei, bei!

[wind scaffold]

AMK mod supposed to be freeplay ? Cause first impression was that its just original with different interface and boosted weapons stats.

[upbeat coral]

AMK is big mod for SoC featuring tons upon tons of new features
Its foundation of modding as a whole, extremely influential and A LOT of features in modern mods are derived from it
Which is crazy considering the mod itself is older than Call of Pripyat

And no
Its not freeplay

Standard SoC story, just more features

[rich gate]

HOW

[blazing lichen]

ayo you got lucky thats a rare AF spawn

ive never seen that ingame for real in like 100 hours of CoC based mods

id buy it

[upbeat coral]

A UN version.. of a suit produced by Ukrainian Government

[rich gate]

yep

[upbeat coral]

[rich gate]

I am as confused as yo uare

[upbeat coral]

God UNISG is always so awful in every mod ever

[blazing lichen]

i kinda wish CoC Modders removed unisg stuff

[rich gate]

honestly

[blazing lichen]

theres only a seva and a suit but it makes no sense to even have it

[rich gate]

itd be cool to see some cut factions implemented to other CoC mods other than legend returns

if it is done right ofc

[blazing lichen]

fr

[upbeat coral]

It wont be done right

Not in CoC forks

[blazing lichen]

[unborn ledge]

nothing ever happens

[upbeat coral]

Also
Only correct way to do UNISG is to not have them in your mod

Fuсk them honestly
Stupid purple merc reskin

[blazing lichen]

im thankful they arent in peaklite

[upbeat coral]

I have yet to see a version of the faction that has any depth at all

[blazing lichen]

fr

same

[wind scaffold]

Thanks for review.

[upbeat coral]

That will be 2 kot dollars

[upbeat coral]

Its either mercs but purple or mercs but pink

Heck Jekans Marauders have more depth than that

And those are literal bandit replacement that exists solely to be a gun fodder and a generic bad guys faction

[blazing lichen]

[upbeat coral]

Im not even joking
Marauders actually got set up relations to other factions, as well as leaders and dynamic between them, and an interesting way to make money other than just robbing

Its actually a decent faction

[blazing lichen]

why cant we have peak like this in freeplay

[upbeat coral]

Cuz every faction in freeplay will inevitabely end up being Loners reskin unless you take drastic measures like LR did with Sin

[frosty ivy]

Any tips on how to make soc stop crashing? I have zrp on it

[wind scaffold]

Uninstall zrp.

[frosty ivy]

Thought it would help the game stop crashing etc

[wind scaffold]

No, its not.

[upbeat coral]

What even is the issue

[wind scaffold]

ZRP.

[upbeat coral]

True

[wind scaffold]

😘

[unborn ledge]

hunters are better than the UNISG

green trenchcoat gaming

[upbeat coral]

Being better than UNISG is a low bar

[unborn ledge]

prefer ISG armour to be used on ecologists ngl

[upbeat coral]

If I created the most randomass faction it would probably be better

[unborn ledge]

Kot Sky

[upbeat coral]

Dogeaters
They eat dogs
And only wear pants
And thats about it

Already a better faction

[blazing lichen]

based af

[unborn ledge]

I support it ngl

[unborn ledge]

they would obviously do a better job than duty with destroying dogs

its not like duty was competent anyways

[upbeat coral]

Nah
Duty wad pretty good lorewise

But the map wasnt structured well enough for that to show up in gameplay

[unborn ledge]

they still are somewhat good in Heart of Chornobyl

just mostly forgotten

[upbeat coral]

Factions in HoC...

[unborn ledge]

By the way

is Oblivion Lost a good mod to play

I like the design of it

[upbeat coral]

Never played Oblivion Lost

Only OLR

[unborn ledge]

OLR is what I meant my bad

[upbeat coral]

Yes

Its peak

[unborn ledge]

I could tell you played it since you have messer in your profile

oh

used to

i forgor

[upbeat coral]

Depending on version it varies a lot

[unborn ledge]

I might try it some time but rn I'm gonna continue with Path in the mist

[upbeat coral]

Vector of Alienation (build around OLR 2.25 iirc) has by far the best story
OLR 2.5 has better tasks tho
And OLR 3.0 has crazy good Alife and some really good tasks but suffers from stability issues and unecessary hardcore features

[upbeat coral]

Peak in the Mist

Great mod

Especially at the start

And the arena in Rostok

[unborn ledge]

I'm stuck on the soldering bit since I dunno if its bugged or I'm just naturally brain scorched

[upbeat coral]

[upbeat coral]

That thing is horrendous, yeah

I passed the mod already and still got no idea how it works

[unborn ledge]

Dead city too also looks nice

I'm more a fan of OGS's version of dead city

never go out at night....

[upbeat coral]

Often times people just slap the name Dead City on maps that arent really Dead City
Because frankly, every city in the zone is dead

But I think this one got the square from the original
So its all forgiven

[unborn ledge]

City-23 feels better ngl

[upbeat coral]

The map is cool tho
Even if its probably the weakest one in the mod

[upbeat coral]

Yeah
That wad peak

Man OGSE was so good before Red Forest

[unborn ledge]

Its obviously a better name since I feel it more fits that area

[upbeat coral]

After that it kinda started degrading in quality

[unborn ledge]

I tried Solyanka but now I'm stuck on that part with doctor's cutscene crashing

I'm guessing its a ZRP thing which of course it is

[upbeat coral]

Also
Theres this mod built on IX-Ray with crazy large maps
Big enough that they could fit the entire bay that forms majority of Zaton and still have room for considerable amount of the town of Chernobyl

Man I wish someone made realistic Zaton

Would be so peak

[unborn ledge]

Reminds me of the OP 2.2 map or just any other mod map

huge map with other stuff across the river

[blazing lichen]

OPEAK2 is so good

i cant wait to finish it one day

[upbeat coral]

OP is built on Solyanka

[unborn ledge]

I could tell

Caves suck ass

especially the part with the monolith

[upbeat coral]

Hehe

You know what doesnt suck tho?

[blazing lichen]

cant wait for OP3

[upbeat coral]

Jekans mods

[blazing lichen]

fr

[upbeat coral]

And Zarubins mods

[unborn ledge]

Oh I should really play goldsphere and those mods

I want the funny pipe pistol

[blazing lichen]

you should

[upbeat coral]

And Ferveks' mods

[unborn ledge]

I'll see about it but it seems like some fun mods

[upbeat coral]

Too bad Ferveks doesnt make mods anymore

[blazing lichen]

play op2

[unborn ledge]

I tried but the installation was a bit buggy, I'll do it again just after I do some other stuff

[blazing lichen]

id play jekans stuff first though

[upbeat coral]

Yes

[blazing lichen]

op2 is a journey and a half

[upbeat coral]

Trust
Im totally unbiased

Definitely not a chronical Jekan shill

[unborn ledge]

We are all jank mod fans

[blazing lichen]

op2 needs 500-1000 hours to beat depending on how experienced you are but goldsphere, escape from the zone and return to the zone are peak story content

[unborn ledge]

I'd rather play op2 for the fun of it ngl

[blazing lichen]

same tbh

[upbeat coral]

Play them
NOW

[blazing lichen]

100% it seems punishing

[unborn ledge]

Punishing but fun its what I can tell

[upbeat coral]

Goldsphere is only 20-70 hours long

[blazing lichen]

soon

[upbeat coral]

Cmon

[unborn ledge]

I have not played op2 yet but from the videos I've seen its super fun

[blazing lichen]

i got about 14 hours in op2 its solid fun

[unborn ledge]

Anomalous grenades seem so cool

[blazing lichen]

still on a break from stalker rn

[upbeat coral]

[blazing lichen]

ive played stalker every day for like months ngl im kinda cooked haha

need a minor break to come back fresh

[upbeat coral]

Cooked?
Goldsphere has cooking mechanic

Its the only food that cant spoil

[blazing lichen]

has a cool cooking video aswell

was surprised

[upbeat coral]

Yes

So peak

[blazing lichen]

PEAKsphere

[upbeat coral]

Jekan loves his cutscenes

Also
EFTZ and RTTZ have in engine cutscenes

Like CoP does

[blazing lichen]

AYO

[upbeat coral]

Many mods do nowadays
But Jekan uses them a lot

[blazing lichen]

@upbeat coral got these set up

i have the jekan trilogy for when i get into stalker again

[upbeat coral]

Peak

EFTZ and Goldsphere menu music is just..

😘

[blazing lichen]

[upbeat coral]

So great

[blazing lichen]

fr

[upbeat coral]

When I was modding I replaced the menu music with that from Goldsphere
Which resulted in me getting no work done since I would always start the game, listen to music, turn it off and end up not testing the changes I made

[wind scaffold]

Can you please name zarubins and ferveks mods ?

[upbeat coral]

Messenger, Bad Company, Bad Company 2 for Zarubin

Game of Souls Beginning and Game of Souls Excelsior for Ferveks

[rich gate]

Wasn't dead city a cut level like dsrkscape?

[upbeat coral]

Yes

[rich gate]

I heard it was supposed to have some parasitic monsters at one point

Or some kind of disease

[upbeat coral]

Disease

Yeah

[pine dust]

Guys where can i find m209 underbarrel grenade launcher ammo in soc?(Im using ZRP and OWR3 if that helps)

[rich gate]

Rush B

[upbeat coral]

Barkeep will give you a TRs 301 with all accessories (including the M203 grenade launcher) for finishing the Bring Goldfish Artifact task

@pine dust

Unless ZRP changes that

Altho that will only happen once you do all his previous artifact missions and turn the scorcher off

Lukash tho will give you SGI with M203 for completing the clear the village task

[pine dust]

Wait, does barkeep give the ammo? If not then i already had the launcher b4 going to the agroprom itself

[upbeat coral]

Dunno

But he definitely gives the launcher itself

[wind scaffold]

What so good about their mods ?

[upbeat coral]

just about everything

[surreal osprey]

I finally got a computer! I have played through all three in the trilogy, and am wondering what mods would be recommended to try out?

[upbeat coral]

depends on what you want the mod to do

the selection is extremely wide and its hard to help without knowing what you are looking for

[surreal osprey]

I’m looking for something to expand the story / lore, and I don’t mind new aspects of gameplay

[upbeat coral]

so just a story overhaul?
or completely new story?

[surreal osprey]

Completely new

[upbeat coral]

ah okay

gimme a sec

Goldsphere
Spatial Anomaly
Return to the Zone
Vector of Alienation
Secrets of Cordon
Valley of Whispers
Road to the North
Incubator
Dreamcatcher
Sins of the Legend
Winter Sniper
Thorny Way
Messenger
Bad Company Remaster
Bad Company 2
Path in the Mist
The Exception
Calm after the Storm
Sins of the Scholar
Game of Souls: Beginning
Game of Souls: Excelsior
Creature in the Mist
Borland's Story
Dollchan 8: Infinity

these are the mods I would consider worth the time

[surreal osprey]

Oh wow, thank you

[upbeat coral]

np

keeping a spreadsheet really saves time

also keep in mind that the Game of Souls mods are part of a series (obviously)
and Messenger, Bad Company and Bad Company 2 are also their respective series

Thorny Way is also a part of a series but I havent played the remaining mods yet

[surreal osprey]

I see

Thank you again

[upbeat coral]

np

also also
The Exception lets you destroy Duty

so thats cool

[blazing lichen]

based as FUCK

[wind scaffold]

Dollchan 8 ? You changed your opinion about this mod ? I remember that you didnt like this mod.

[upbeat coral]

yes

I did a full playthrough and uhh
lets just say I became a lot more of an artifact goblin than when I last played

so the grind wasnt that bad

its still ass quest design tho

[shrewd flame]

Im playing spatial anomaly right now and it's pretty great

[shrewd flame]

I tried it before but I want really into it

There is just that ||zombie in exo|| in the beginning who is way too powerful but that's all

[frosty ivy]

Is the spreadsheet availible?

is zrp for soc going to affect gameplay? or is it just bug fixes and other stuff

#🔩┃trilogy_modifications message

Not sure which of these you played

[unborn ledge]

I was thinking about trying Lost Alpha or OLR

[upbeat coral]

OLR

Any day

[young fable]

OLR is true Old Build

[upbeat coral]

Vector of Alienation is fork of OLR

[young fable]

Lost Alpha is reimagined for Old build stalker

[upbeat coral]

Lost Alpha is goofy mish mash of random ideas from desdocs with a ton of original bad writing

Only good thing are maps honestly

[young fable]

The ending script sequences

Goofy ahh fight

[unborn ledge]

OLR has the funny looking naked burers right

[wind scaffold]

Play original. Goldensphere complete. If you want better graphics, play OGSR version.

[wind scaffold]

Vector of alienation is finished ?

[upbeat coral]

Yes

[upbeat coral]

OGSR is visually worse tho

It lacks any creative vision

[shut veldt]

Care to explain?

[blazing lichen]

Ogsr gs is mid

[wind scaffold]

Agree. Its shit. I played it because you or someone else said that it more stable, but i deleted it after saw it 2025 ultra graphics RTX remix 3000 mods vanilla plus visual. Original Golden Ball is better.

[wind scaffold]

It worse than mid.

[blazing lichen]

And it lost its charm

Ogse gs has the soc peak atmosphere

[upbeat coral]

ZRP alters gameplay in many ways that are neither listed nor are they optional :3

[shrewd flame]

Vector of alienation is not that great

Storyline is just SoC revisited

It's just fun to visit maps from the builds

[upbeat coral]

Thats every buildo mod

The story differs in details

Its not marginally different

[shrewd flame]

I never finished it tho. Stopped playing at the CNPP because I always teleported back Idk why

I need to play more mods

I always end up playing vanilla

[upbeat coral]

Heresy

[shrewd flame]

I only did Vector of alienation, anomaly (🤢 ), CoC and true stalker

[upbeat coral]

Honeslty I think VoA really benefits from the similar story
Weird atmosphere paired with deja vu inducing main questline is great

[shrewd flame]

I tried wind of time but didn't get far

[upbeat coral]

Dang

Wind of Time is great mod

[shrewd flame]

The storyline seems a bit stupid

[upbeat coral]

How about I time travel and kick your ass before you get to write this

[shrewd flame]

Hahaha

[upbeat coral]

Peak mod with peak story

[shrewd flame]

You dont scare me mr goldsphere shill

[upbeat coral]

I know

But he will

[shrewd flame]

🙀

[shut veldt]

Can you give me an example? If its not too bad of a change maybe ill consider continue using zrp

[raw nexus]

toy

[blazing lichen]

What mod is that

[raw nexus]

the hud?

[blazing lichen]

And in general

[raw nexus]

anomaly

thats why the wepon looks so shit

vanilla guns look better

[blazing lichen]

Fair haha did you use the hud mod from OWR? Looks familiar and fr yeah I prefer vanilla guns aswell

[raw nexus]

yeah

zver hud

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/zver-hud

[blazing lichen]

Thanks

[wind scaffold]

Did you like CoC ?

[shrewd flame]

I played it years ago so Im not quite sure. I played a lot of anomaly maybe 150hours something like that. But honestly Im not really into free play anymore. Doing fetch quests can be quite boring

[upbeat coral]

Nowadays freeplay got a lot better

You just played the two empty mods

CoC is empty because its a platform pretty much

And Anomaly is empty because they physically CAN NOT add good content to it

[blazing lichen]

Fr

@shrewd flame if you want great freeplay with real content you got call of the zone, legends return and teamlite

Anomaly is allergic to putting cool content into itself

[shrewd flame]

Anomaly is fine it brought si many players I don't get the hate. We need to stop gatekeeping in this community. If people like it it's fine

But thx for the recommandations

[blazing lichen]

The hate comes from anomaly youtubers and players claiming it's the definitive and true stalker they earn the gatekeeping and hate imo

[wild yacht]

Gamma players/content creators are worse

the mod is also nothing too special, there are other free play mods like it that don’t get nearly the same amount of attention

[blazing lichen]

True they are bad aswell haha

[upbeat coral]

They are all terrible and annoying to deal with
Incapable of normal discussion, all they do is shit on other mods without being able to list single thing that Anomaly does well (cuz it doesnt do anything well, what a surprise)

[blazing lichen]

Fr haha

[shrewd flame]

People enjoy it and that's fine

Not everyone is a fan on janky mod reborn aaah

We need to be more open and accept the variety of mod

What's great with this modding community is that you can always find something you like

If you love hardcore survival bulshit that's fine. If you dont like it that's fine too

[shrewd flame]

I never met an anomaly or gamma player like that

But gatekeepers hating on everything close to anomaly yes and a lot of times

[wind scaffold]

If you need it, do it. We can decide what we need by ourself.

[wind scaffold]

And something you hate. If you like it, ok. but some people hate it. Let them be.

[wind scaffold]

Not without reasons.

[shrewd flame]

Have you read my Messages ? Never said people can't hate it...
I'm talking about people who hate anomaly/gamma players

Not the same thing

[wind scaffold]

Let them hate them. What's the problem ?

[shrewd flame]

Hating people is simply not healthy
Who cares about what other people play?

[wind scaffold]

Ok. Than why people care if other people hate them because of what they play ? Leave them be. There is no need to touch them.

[shrewd flame]

What are you on bro

Schizo medicine.

What im saying is easy: Let them be what they are. There no problem if someone hate mod or player of this mod, if its only words. If someone feel that its the problem, he can always turn off his computer or phone, we are all on the internet.

Heck even here during the release it looked like that, they are annoying to deal with
And worst part, they actively gaslight newbies into jumping to their stinky mod instead of playing the actual stalker games
Those people then get locked in the same bubble where they shit on everything without even trying any of it

Yeah. Real gatekeeping is that. "You can skip trilogy, anomaly best Stalker game anyway." Same about skipping Clear Sky (Better than CoP.)

[shrewd flame]

Never saw anyone saying you need to skip the trilogy

[wind scaffold]

Well, its your experience.

Most annoying videos on youtube about Anomaly is "This is best stalker game/Best stalker mod/Perfect stalker."
