for the enhanced edition ?

[civic pewter]

For CoP OG

[fervent acorn]

what dose the mod do ?

I mean the mod dose lot of things the EE dose, I tried playing Misery the mod runs like ass

I'm pretty much done with original CoP mods

[civic pewter]

someone should port Misery to IX-Ray or EE because it's a total conversion of CoP, without an port the compatibility it's poor.

[fervent acorn]

Yeah

Im glad a freedom guy talks here lol

[civic pewter]

Freedom-Ray my beloved:

[fervent acorn]

Which mods should I get?

after this

[civic pewter]

IXR Devs have an GitHub repository with addons for IX-Ray and i know that it's possible the compatibility with mods that change the gameplay (A-Life mods and Weapons Reanimations, for example)

[fervent acorn]

thanks a lot buddy

It expands the story a bit

Many more cool interactions in the world

[unborn ledge]

Are there any good mods to play for stalker

desperate for anything ngl

OpenXRay GUNSLINGER

[viscid viper]

i need more GUNSLINGER

[fluid pier]

XRMPE GUNSLINGER

[viscid viper]

ehhh...

preferably mods that feature GUNSLINGER in their title

which means i can't feature True Stalker, xrMPE, Curved Road, Borov's Story, Farthest Edge: Episode 1, The Forgotten Squad and others 😔

could've featured those with IWP weapons but eh

only one i can name are Advanced Weapon Pack and NLC Improved

[viscid viper]

owa is herbal (not weed) cigarette

[ebon tusk]

AREA can never be fent bc its evokes too much emotion when I see a FKCN controller outside the rostok area when I just started the game

[viscid viper]

what's a good drug to label AREA then

[ebon tusk]

idk if drugs a good term, Id say its equivelant to an experience in mental tribulations or ego death

AREA is laxative

Tried out that remake of SFZ Episode 0. Pretty good, it's at least a big step forward from a technical perspective. Maybe one day the mod will actually come out

[twilit storm]

Hi having a problem with Screen Space Shaders mod, ground it looks like someone poured vaseline all over the ground. I use Enhanced Shaders and Color Grading and Terrain_Textures_Redone if this will help.

[idle matrix]

Which game?

[twilit storm]

Anomaly.
But now i have another problem. I had reinstalled everything and now it's all really dark and fleshlight doesnt work.

[idle matrix]

Hmm. I haven't fiddled around with SSS on Anomaly myself. The mod has its own discord where you might find better help

[idle matrix]

Well after playing SFZ E0 Deluxe Remake, I went and played SFZ Lost Story. Also pretty good, even if it is much less polished

[idle matrix]

Couldn't figure out the safe code for the life of me though. The hint you get is extremely cryptic

[ebon tusk]

A website made by Cheeki Breeki as an archive to the mods he talks about and his grades for the mods
https://www.cheeki.zone/

[idle matrix]

Oh yeah I saw that site. It's specifically for the ones where a lot of the c-con gdrive links are dead or otherwise installing the mod with EN translation is annoying or complicated. So certainly a welcome effort

Or well his video said those were the priorities. It seems since he's added a few that are more readily available

solid one stop shop for some excellent mods though and also Dollchan and True Stalker

[fallow sedge]

I opened the website expecting links to gamma and radiophobia and was pleasantly surprised

[idle matrix]

Some of those repacks have already been added to the c-con sheet

[civic flame]

I'm trying to decide on playing my second playthrough clear sky with the CIP mod, or the ABR mod. Do you guys have any preferences for either mod?

[dull tendon]

go with abr

[fallow sedge]

SRP is a good vanilla+ mod for a second playthrough

[civic flame]

thanks guys! I think ABR uses the SRP mod as well so i think ill go with that

[idle matrix]

I guess I'm not a fan of the overhaul mods for CS myself. I'd just use SRP personally

[fallow sedge]

Eh, not sure if the other changes of ABR are an improvement

But it’s your game and your choice of course

[neat lichen]

Going to play stalker call of pripyat next, is there anything like the Zone Reclamation project I should download? it seems like atmosfear is pretty popular

[idle matrix]

Nothing necessary, it was the most polished vanilla experience

[neat lichen]

ok ill just do a vanilla playthrough then

[austere cedar]

Delete Shader cache and try again

[neat lichen]

for shadow of chernobyl what mods do ppl reccomend? I was looking at autumn aurora or radiophobia

[fallow sedge]

First playthrough = none

[solemn cradle]

Haven't tried personally, but there's Zone Reclamation Project. It fixes a lot of bugs and oversights and adds a bunch of QoL stuff

[neat lichen]

I already played through it

I think will just do SRP and do veteran difficulty

[civic pewter]

For second playthrought:
OGSR Legacy Edition.
Prosectors Project.

[idle matrix]

If you really want to play with mods, Id suggest memories of the zone

[fallow sedge]

Try AMK

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-amk-retranslated with this hand translation

It’s a very historically important mod because it showed what modders were able to achieve in a year since release.

Is there any unpacker that works with none standard stalker games?

Trying to unpack the database of a russian living zone mod which makes the entire game a 1:1 scale pripyat

Tried 3 unpackers none of them work

Seems to use clear sky as the base

[civic pewter]

Living Zone it's using Open X-Ray Engine.

An version of the engine made specifically for Pripyat Living Zone, if you want take the level i don't know if could works, i understand that the level is too tied up to the engine.
There's a few mods with cut-versions of the level, as Lost World CoP and Shadow of Chernobyl Update 2.0, but idk.

[dense breach]

I did played all the OG versions but the EE version have achievements 🙂

Hmm, I still cannot get it to work.

I'm now using the xrCompress.exe from AXRToolset just to be sure it's not a console compatible one. My mod layout is MyMod/config/weapons/w_abakan.ltx

I get this in the log file, and no pack output. Sidenote, if I just do a basic texture replace, it works fine

Does anyone know any other ways to extract geometry from level files besides pavel’s blender xray tools?

I'm not the biggest anomaly fan but it is still a pretty based move to let them put it on GOG

[little plover]

Hopefully with them doing that, Anomaly will get updated to 1.6 now. Only been waiting like 3-4 years or something.

[austere cedar]

Are they still even working on it?

Who even knows anymore tbh, last I remember seeing any kind of ‘update’ to what they were doing they made a lock pick UI.

[austere cedar]

They got any chanel or some kind of progress track/github?

[little plover]

Not that I know of, I just use the discord for any update info, last thing from announcements was for the mod being available of gog. The Anomaly devs are in this server too though.

[silent forge]

Hi. Best mod hardcore for SoC, CS and CoP? Anomaly? Thanks for the answers.

[civic pewter]

Anomaly isn't hardcore and isn't for the trilogy.

[silent forge]

Which mod would you recommend that's truly hardcore?

[civic pewter]

SoC:
Prosectors Project, has unique mechanics and gameplay + the best AI of an mod, the general feeling of the mod is: "true SoC vibes".
Clear Sky:
REBORN Trilogy.🤣
Call of Pripyat:
mmmmmmm nothing mmmmmm.

[civic pewter]

Prosectors Project

has the best AI of an stalkermod.

[silent forge]

Is available now?

[civic pewter]

this repack don't have the fix7 but still is very solid:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/prosectors-project-english-translation

[silent forge]

Thanks

[high ocean]

If you had fun with Prosectors, maybe try NLC7 (Most people recommend NLC7 Hard Edition) or older versions of NLC if they have translations...

NLC7 is much harder, and I would recommend playing (and beating) Prosectors first, but It's truly a great mod, if not extremely jarring at first.

[silent forge]

Thanks

[idle matrix]

DSH

Ew, DSH

[silent forge]

From the information I have received it seems to me that NCL7 is more stimulating than Prospectors Project, am I wrong?

[ebon tusk]

what do you mean by "stimulating"

[silent forge]

rewarding combat and exploration

[ebon tusk]

prosectors has better AI but NLC has a new story, characters, side quests and features for you to do

id say NLC is harder, but thats is also bc questing and locations are harder

[silent forge]

for CoP there is Misery

[silent forge]

For CS this?
https://www.moddb.com/mods/reborn-source/downloads/reborn-source-release

[sonic tinsel]

Don't play Reborn, it causes brain rot

[high ocean]

Yeah, Reborn is... crap, it's kinda supposed to be

[civic pewter]

Misery it's an kindergarten compared to Prosectors Project and NLC7.

[high ocean]

For CoP there is A.R.E.A, honestly just pick a mod and play, there are so many out there. Prosectors is an okay start, it's well designed and pretty fun

Don't be afraid to run from fights

And pick off an enemy before running

[ebon tusk]

AREA is a COC fork not a COP mod

do better

[high ocean]

CoC is based on CoP dough... I dont know if AREA has engine modifications from CoC, just a ton of new scripts and content.

Also, when people think of CoP mods, are you REALLY trying to suggest CoC isn't a CoP mod!?

[ebon tusk]

COC is its own things, it does extensive modifications to the engine and AI

it isnt a mere COP mod

[high ocean]

Prosectors has a highly modified SoC engine, so does NLC7

NLC7 comes from the OGSR engine, so by your logic NLC7 wouldn't be a contender

[ebon tusk]

yhea, they arent SOC mods

NLC7 doesnt come from the OGSR engine tho

NLC7 predates OGSR and still uses its own Engine modifications, unless you mean the fringe OGSR port, but if you talk base NC7, no

[high ocean]

Someone told me a while ago NLC7 comes from OGSR... At least maybe Hard Edition

[ebon tusk]

nha, HE uses base NLC7

[high ocean]

Its definitely at least some engine fork

Yeah, i doubt HE would derive too far from NLC7

So what is a hardcore SoC mod then?

And CoP?

Not CS

ABC Inferno idk

Diana Mod

Old NLC versions maybe

[ebon tusk]

AMK

[high ocean]

I haven't seen footage of that one, I know it's highly regarded though! Also you won the CoC argument, everyone else agreed with you when I asked the question elsewhere...

I have nonclue how people could create such big mods a year after the game came out, in 2007

Im struggling with the SDK and all.spawn still

I dont even want to know scripting, logic, and LUA

[ebon tusk]

the game leaked before it was released a few times

lol

[high ocean]

All intentional*

Im pretty sure CoP source code is on GitHub somewhere, but I would just use the engine forks

[fallow sedge]

I mean that did not really help that much, it’s not like people were extensively modding builds

[fallow sedge]

We’ve just had some really good Lua programmers among fans in the early days

[high ocean]

I haven't programmed ever, so it's hard to learn. Stalker also uses some LUA plugins which enable some C & C++ functionality, (or atleast I think), and it also has its own logic system which is practically a scripting language in of itself,

Ahhhh. Its just too much 😭

Thankfully Dez0wave and the AMK fourm released some good resources early on in the days. I use Dez0waves .chm file a lot

Also I used ChatGPT once to try to solve an SDK issue, because my sibling kept insisting that it could work give a good result, but I knew it produces garbage whenever you ask it niche questions. Low and behold, it didn't answer the question exactly right, but it gave the location of where the problem was. How the hell did it know...

[cinder oxide]

Oh man, it hasn't even occurred to me that I can mod the games

Maybe I screw around and find out sometime

[high ocean]

It's honestly pretty intuitive to start out with. I would recommend it, it's quite a lot of fun. Though the learning process is a tedious is slow in some parts.

[hollow perch]

looking for a thoughts for those 3 i marked

[faint gorge]

Hi running CoP OG Gunslinger... Is there out any mod that add water reflections like in EE?

[high ocean]

No mod out there that I'm aware of. Gunslinger is a pretty in-depth modification with engine edits.

I think the closest thing I know is the OpenXray Gunslinger project on Moddb, which adds Gunslinger to a graphically enhanced CoP and engine, but it's in alpha right now, and I dont know how stable it is.

[bronze elk]

Are you banned from their discord

[sour latch]

Yes
otherwise I'm mainly trying to find mods similar to it

[bronze elk]

You could make a throwaway alt account for discord and get it through that, or I could go grab the download link and send it to you. But you wouldn't see the download instructions that way if you need them

[mild forge]

how do i escape from sniper in goldsphere?

its almost a week lol

[sour latch]

If you could grab the download link that would be wonderful

[bronze elk]

DM me and I'll send them, your DM's are closed

[unborn ledge]

goldsphere but i have to go through the garbage

[little plover]

Just play Improved Weapon Pack with CotZ instead tbh. It’s better and is still a stalker experience where as GAMMA.. it’s good, but it ain’t stalker.

[bronze elk]

One could argue that using any mods isn't stalker

[little plover]

Not really a valid argument though since there’s mods that are just bug fixes that improve upon the initial game.

But then again that takes away from the jank that makes stalker so, you’re right I guess.

[sour latch]

that has its own problems

plus cotz has its own issues since the mod author is dead

[little plover]

Blintorez has been adapting it for IWP for some time now, while it’s not perfect, it’s still very much stable and in a playable state, I’ve done many playthroughs on IWP with CotZ and never had any issues.

[little plover]

And the only problem IWP has would be the fact that it’s on its own modded engine and is closed source so making any larger ambitious mods for it is very tedious if even at all possible. Still a very well optimised mod, just not the best to make mods for.

[sour latch]

even then I'm well
divided between gamma or stalker

[sour latch]

also modding iwp has been extremely difficult for me

[bronze elk]

My point being that there isn't really any point in arguing what changes the game too little or too much, because it's an individual choice. I'm sure a lot of people consider vanilla stalker games to not be real stalker games

[little plover]

It’s fairly standard once you load the plugin for it to work with MO2 and don’t use JSGME.

[sour latch]

really?

If you could provide instructions for it that will be great, I can take a look tomorrow

oh I'm busy tomorrow, after that

[little plover]

It’s in IWP discord but sure I can DM you the link.

But yeah man after you set it up with MO2 it’s just as easy as everything else tbh, I had like 30-40 mods on top of CotZ and IWP.

[sour latch]

Thank you

[ebon tusk]

you are using a freeplay mod that will completely change the core and purpose of stalker to mold it's own experience
you are not playing stalker
you are playing IWP, AREA, COC, COTZ, RTTN, etc etc

[little plover]

I know that, I said there is mods out there that are literally just bug fixes though, like for the OG games.

[ebon tusk]

just as much as anomaly isn't stalker, so isnt IWP or any of such mods

[little plover]

Agreed. There are mods that are only closer to the stalker core gameplay/mechanics than others, I just personally think GAMMA has had far too much changed and way too much item bloat etc to still be considered a stalker experience, it’s more just an FPS survival with stalker aesthetics. Where as IWP is basically what you said, mod on non on mod etc but still closer to the stalker experience, imo. But still, not stalker.

[ebon tusk]

splitting hairs on what is closer or isnt is a dumb thing to do when it comes down to it them being freeplay already invalidates all of this because it goes against Stalker being a story game

[little plover]

That’s your opinion on the matter. Even the freeplay mods still have a storyline.

[ebon tusk]

everything everyone says is their opinions, doesnt matter

[little plover]

Opinions are like butt holes, everyone has one and they all stink.

[fallow sedge]

Even bug fix mod are controversial lol

First of all, all of them add some of their own shit by default (no I’m not talking about optional addons) that you cannot opt out of

Secondly even if they didn’t, how they fix a bug is arbitrary and not an objective representation of original developer intentions

[civic pewter]

Yes, but in the majority of freeplays the story isn't a focus (or isn't a strong point).
the most closed thing to have the story/lore/scripted missions as focus while is an freeplay is Legend Returns 0.9.2, and that mod has incomplete main questlines and all.

CoTZ has his own storylines and sidequests but still is sooo freeplay as an CoC 2.0 can be, still good tho, it's funny for me.

[mild forge]

id rather play skyrim than stalker freeplay 😂

If your mod requires bin files changes then we’ll never see it adapted

If not then there is a chance

[dusky inlet]

i hear mod support is ass and its like modding fallout on a ps4

[fallow sedge]

It's hardly like that, it's just that they don't allow engine changes so you cant add new features, pretty much limited to existing game content

we can still do a LOT with it but modern mods rely on making engine changes

and secondly is that they changed a lot of tech stuff but we don't know what exactly

so e.g. old scripts will fail to launch and we dont know how to change the mto work

I applied a NP 2.0 patch for OLR 3.0 and everytime I kill something I get an error but my games does not crash, I hear windows error sound everytime I kill somebody, can someone help?

[dusky inlet]

send the log to me

[rigid flax]

nvm, it was the english translation that screwed up with Narodniy Patch 2.0

looks like running that with it creates some unfortunate issues even if the game may run

and knowing recent state of OLR 3.0 OG I... really do not want to play through it like that ever again

thank you though

[civic pewter]

I guess if u want play more build-style mods u have options.

Tho, i understand that OLR 3.0 is unique in several aspects.

[rigid flax]

don't say OLR 2.5, I finished that three years ago
although it was great

oh, and Vector Of Alienation, but tbh I never finished that

still, can you tell me?

[rigid flax]

Very well it is

[civic pewter]

RMA.
Shadows Addon.
Clear Sky Revision.

These three are the best released until now on restoring discarded-content apart of OLR.

[rigid flax]

It's not just about discarded content
it's about that world to me

but in any case, thank you so much

https://www.moddb.com/mods/old-storyline-restoration-mod-rma/images/image-5#imagebox OH I PLAYED THIS

https://www.moddb.com/mods/rmasa looks good

[civic pewter]

Theres others build-style mods in development:
Recession Addon by Snowy, perhaps better than RMA and/or Shadows Addon.
Grand Rendering Mod update (an update that restore a lot of maps of 2004-2005).
Legend Returns 1.0.
Legend Returns 0.9.3+.
Back To The Stalker (Lost Alpha but good).
Lost World CoP (has build atmosphere from OL and S2 2011),
S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2: Old Concept.

[rigid flax]

I know Legend Returns

and Lost Alpha ain't that bad!

[civic pewter]

[rigid flax]

https://ap-pro.ru/forums/topic/10730-clear-sky-revision is there a english link for this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LScpwvhN7hU that's it?

https://www.moddb.com/mods/back-to-the-stalker this does look good

[civic pewter]

No there's an un-oficial translation for that but it's totally compatible with every localization of the trilogy, just the encyclopedia it's untranslated because it's new content by Snowy, everything beside that it's translated, the cut-content, everything.

I know three persons that played CSR without problems on the english localisation.

[rigid flax]

Also tell me about it?

[civic pewter]

Yes, that's it LWCoP.
U can see more things about the mod on his page of the russian facebook (VeKa), i would send u the link on this channel but the server banned the VK links because is the russian facebook.

[rigid flax]

it's not out yet yes?

[civic pewter]

Yet no.

[rigid flax]

alright

also what's so bad about Lost Alpha?

[civic pewter]

Back To The Stalker is an reinvention of Shadow of Chernobyl on his own version of OGSR Engine that has that feeling of "That Same Stalker" (S.T.A.L.K.E.R builds from 2002 until 2006).
Has modded maps and almost every map present on the builds of Oblivion Lost and Shadow of Chernobyl, in some form.

According to my understanding, the mod was 50% complete on october of 2023.
It's made by several devs of some mods, too it's related to Legend Returns because some modders are from LR Devs.
One of the most ambitious project on the current stalkermods.

[rigid flax]

was asking about what you don't like about LADC but still thanks for letting me know

[rigid flax]

and looking at the web page, I am not surprised it's actually looking cool

makes me imagine if SOC was a proper AAA title at the time

a proper "cho/ernobyl" experience if mutants existed realistically

[civic pewter]

The main dev did more of 670 changes to the build of OGSR Engine that he taked for the engine, beautiful.

[civic pewter]

i feel it like LA in concept but without being an soup of discarded-ideas with a mix of bad-ideas by fans.

U can see more about the mod on his AP-PRO page.

[rigid flax]

still LA was nice

[rigid flax]

Alright then

[civic pewter]

I love the articles of the mods, im hyped for BTTS because i love the buildo-style mods.

[rigid flax]

I love Oblivion Lost

it feels if the zone was actually real

the art style is
MAJESTIC

[civic pewter]

I love Oblivion Lost.
I love the builds.
I love the discarded-content of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

[civic pewter]

Yeah, the art-style/atmosphere/aesthetic is GREAT.
Has a lot of interesting concepts tho.

[rigid flax]

How do you find OLR 3.0?

[civic pewter]

and Legend Returns 1.0 it's supposed to have several BTTS maps.

The author of the mod (Bashyone) helps with some thingis on other buildo mods, engine thingis.

[rigid flax]

I gave up at Aprogrom and now I am trying to re-do my playthrough, that's why I installed Narodniy patch

[civic pewter]

I feel the concepts, atmosphere, and the freeplays elements goods.
I didn't played it for more of 10 hours +- because some months ago my understanding of the english was poor and how i don't know russian, sooo the progress on the story was poor.

I don't play replay it on his vanilla form because OLR 3.0 has a lot of "bad thingis" that perhaps could be fixed on Semi Official Patch/SOP.
Hi-Flyer did a lot of work and good thingis, but too did a lot of fails on the way.
VoA and OLR 2.5 are better "OLR experiences", OLR is an big mix of ideas by GSC between 2002-2005.

[rigid flax]

then you suggest not playing it even with narodniy patch?

[civic pewter]

If the people's patch has a lot of errors/bugs for u, then no.

[rigid flax]

you even know what it is?

[civic pewter]

It's much better wait at SOP.

[rigid flax]

Kitto said it basically makes it that it prevents you from being soft locked from the secret endings

that's one of the features

you can download one without or with diseases
I downloaded with diseases

and I tried to adapt English Translation to it

which... somewhat worked

[civic pewter]

Yes, fixed certain problems but is far from have the quantity of fixes that could have SOP.

Even the SOP team has one dev for rewritte parts of the plot.

[rigid flax]

but how soon will SOP be?

[rigid flax]

I hope they don't rewrite the|| No good endings concept|| (possible spoiler)

I somehow loved that about Oblivion Lost

[civic pewter]

I don't know, they are working on mid-late levels as Pripyat.
Tho, the first version of SOP is going to be one of a couple or several versions because the patch delete some thingis like Dynamic Lighting because OLR 3.0 has errors with it.

[civic pewter]

||I don't think that they would delete some endings or add smth, the thing is that the endings and his plots must have sense with the other content.||

[rigid flax]

oh alright

unless it's one of the few (possible spoiler) endings they could do is that ||Messer/Strelok was supposed to be gunned down by stalkers inside the sarcophagus when at the Wish Granter||

[civic pewter]

||Strelok don't exist on OL, just Gunslinger exists on OL (Strelok is Shooter on english), and even didn't existed on OL until 2003, GSC did an entire plot without that concept, same case with the Death Truck||

[rigid flax]

||oh alright, was it just that his real name was Anton Chernov?||

[civic pewter]

||I don't know, i just know that the OL-SoC protagonists have official names in some plot but i don't remember which are these, LA has that of Anton Chernov i think||

I love when #🔩┃trilogy_modifications has buildo-thingis on it.

[civic pewter]

Clear Sky Revision is one of the best mods of Clear Sky, and the restored content is translated to the english (+ other languages) because that same content was discarded after of be translated.

Restore content of 2007-2008 and adds a bit of new-content, recommended, i played the mod +70 hours with the first patch.
Tho, has a lot of fixes and additions to the engine, very stable and better optimized than X-Ray Engine 1.5.

Could someone help me with a graphics mod for Call of Chernobyl? I cant tell if the mod is broken or if I am just being stupid.

Im not understanding the instructions. it's saying to "make sure nothing is over written"
So i coped the files into the BIN folder and made sure to "not include" any files of the same name and the mod wont work. so i tried copying the files over and including BOTH the files from BIN 2 and Bin inside the Bin and that didn't work

So i tried just overwriting the files which naturally broke it

Not quite sure what Im actually doing wrong

Can anyone recomend a texture back for this? becuase i don't think this is working

[dusky inlet]

drag and drop everything but dont add the bin files then add the bin files but dont overwrite its very simple tbh dont exactly need a brain for it btw just play anomaly its the same thing as CoC

[cedar turtle]

question, what do you base your opinion on? Except the fact that some players will skip vanilla to play mods like this or anomaly.

[dusky inlet]

i recommend sleeping bag mod, AO redux and S.W.T.C. clear sky

nice guns and visuals

[cedar turtle]

will try next time

[dusky inlet]

anyone ever played clear sky renewal also id like opinions

[civic pewter]

One of the best vanilla+.

[dusky inlet]

yeah is very fun tbh

[zenith oracle]

i am having big trouble with OBS and Lost Alpha. I cant set Lost Alpha to borderless window and my Elgato Stream deck doesnt react at all when Lost Alpha is running, even when tabbed out 🙁 v.v Any ideas?

[dusky inlet]

i have no clue but borderless window didnt exist in the OG games and also since its the game is so old OBS failt to register it as a game or running exe its usually because the modder hasnt added it to the game as a feature so all u can do is record the display and then having to edit out the tab outs that were recorded

i usally just try not to tab out while recording

[zenith oracle]

Unfortunately this is not an option since i am livestreaming 🙁

[dusky inlet]

damn

dual screens needed then bud

[zenith oracle]

I have two screens.

But i need to change scenes during stream (Camera on/off, Studio, Facecam and so on)

[dusky inlet]

anyone know how to fix this also @civic pewter this is for clear sky renewal mod hopefully u can help since u played it

[civic pewter]

Send the log.

i know its something to do with an .omf file or something it isnt linked to in configs

@civic pewter

bro u know what i cant even find it

Heres the log i replicated the crash it only occurs when holding the abakan from what i can tell

[dusky inlet]

that anim is used 3 times lol i dont really know what to replace it with

[summer granite]

hi hey hello, is there anyone here who would like to help me with choosing mods/modpacks for SOC? I've tried to get into soc 2 times now once vanilla and once with a modpack and I keep bouncing off due to low accesibility even tho i really like challenging games with heavy atmosphere

[dusky inlet]

stalker complete 1.5

[dusky inlet]

its like stalker complete 2009 but with mordsernised graphics

almost like clear sky renewal but i think SC 1.5 is better than it due to soc having a better story

[civic pewter]

No, Complete Mod and Sky Renewal Mod have a lot of differences between em since the fact of that SRM is just an vanilla+ without changes in gameplay, only a Renewal.
Complete Mod has new mechanics and more gameplay changes that aren't for a first playthrough.

[dusky inlet]

then i recommend him VSO but ppl will hate me for it but i personally like the atmosphere

[civic pewter]

What is VSO

[dusky inlet]

Vanilla stalker overhaul

its my favourite mod it keeps the original gameplay and everything mainly patches certain quest bugs and makes the graphics look nice i used it on my first playthrough yes it is first playthrough friendly

[civic pewter]

I guess that is more "vanilla" than R3 and SoC Update, ok.

[dusky inlet]

one nice feature is it uses monolith voice lines from CoP where SoC just had voices voiced by the same guy who did the loner voices just with a shift in there sound

[summer granite]

already playing radiophobia 3 and it's insane to me that anyone is recommending anything elese

[fallow sedge]

Radiophobia is honestly meh

Making SoC into a cheap gamma clone is marker of poor taste

[dusky inlet]

radiophobia was good when it was really difficult to beat lol now its just trash

plus they changed the look of everything its not as cool haha

[high ocean]

Radiophobia's AI can shoot through most of the cover in the Rostok Arena. Even worse, they see through it as well. So they light you up through the cover (which is designed TO BE cover) before you can really react

That Arena is a joke lol

[dusky inlet]

i 100% the arena its not hard u just gotta play like a chad

[smoky ridge]

yes, it is

[restive sinew]

[smoky ridge]

Yep, that old hybrid sdk.

[restive sinew]

Already better than DaaGuuda?

Or sdk 0.7 lol, i know sum LDs that using 0.7 as base level editor

[smoky ridge]

@restive sinewdunno wtf is this and which features they got

my version is comfort and Unreal oriented

Which at least mean u need to use WASD to navigate in scene

no that crappy shift movement anymore

[restive sinew]

Ya ik

But all guides by Andrew Nepryahin are about SDK 0.7

Most reliable

So you have to make also documentation for this.

[restive sinew]

Anyways it's cooler

Are the other compilatorts are already inside the interface of SDK?

Meant for example texture quality of scene (cause in old versions it is like .bat files external shit)

[smoky ridge]

Yes it uses lates SkyLoader compilers

[restive sinew]

Nah i meant is it external program or it is inside of your SDK?

[smoky ridge]

It calls Sky's compilers from inside, you can see the icon between these two green triangles

You also able to use legacy compiler right from interface

[narrow hound]

What exactly does turning on sleep deprivation do in Call of the Zone?

[dusky inlet]

Anyone know why complete stalker runs so bad

[compact wolf]

If it's like other mods that use that feature, over time your vision starts to get blurry and your aim gets worse. Other effects might apply over time too, I've never let it get to that point though. To offset this, sleep or use caffeine tablets, if the mod has them. I've wanted to try the mod myself. This info might me completely useless and it uses a completely different system.

[narrow hound]

I guess I'll see what it does soon

[narrow hound]

So with Cotz it's basically what you described. Although I was more expecting it to get the negative effects after at least two days. And not one full day of no sleep.

Playing as a Monolithian, I would assume they can get away with not sleeping for one night? Lol. Probably leave it off for now.

Just finished Radiophobia 3 and was looking for smiliar overhaul for either CS or Cop tried a lot of recommended mods but -got kinda spoiled by R3- can't get past the "jankines" of overall gameplay, physics etc..

No and no.

Just install Sky Renewal Mod and GSWR Wasted Sky.

Looked it up... Looks kinda nice.

Has sku Renewal any add-on changing gunplay?

Adds STCS

and more thingis by Rammaken to the weapon pack.

It's exactly an vanilla+.

Yeah I know... don't get me wrong. Just once you play mod in which guns feels so realistic and impactful... The "clunkynes" and bullet sponge enemies in vanilla feels kinda meh

Which mod is this?

[unborn ledge]

too late i've already finished the mod

its olr 2.5

[late flower]

Hello, has anyone played misery 2.1 here? I need some help

[gaunt sonnet]

Its better if you just name the problem and if someone knows how to fix it, they will say it

Or go to a dedicated misery discord or forum for more detailed answers too

[late flower]

Well there are so many items in misery, what items should I keep and what items should I sell as a RECON player?

[snow leaf]

Can anyone help me why i cant install mod.io mods on Call of Pripyat? (PS4)....i subscribed to mods and left page and nothing wants install it still says occupied memory 0.00mb

Lowkey bored and I finished OLR 2.5

what mod do I play now

[gaunt sonnet]

What are you looking for? Story, gameplay, freeplay, hardcore, short and sweet, pure weirdness?

[unborn ledge]

just anything to be fair

im lowkey bored

[neon socket]

goldsphere

[gaunt sonnet]

Goldsphere as mentioned above is great, it's very story focused with many references to Roadside Picnic.
From the same author you have Escape From The Zone (more gameplay oriented) and Return To Tbe Zone (more story oriented but with some gameplay elements)

You also have Spatial Anomaly, True Path, Prosectors Project, Laberynth, Incubator (as well as other mods from the save team, Vivient), Team Lite, Legend Returns

[unborn ledge]

I did try goldsphere, though unfortunately my saves corrupted and kept crashing so I had to stop playing

I will try some of these mods though

[gaunt sonnet]

I have tips against that if you want

They are very useful and never got me a save corrupted out of 70 hours of gameplay

[unborn ledge]

Tell me

[gaunt sonnet]

One sec

[gaunt sonnet]

1. Make hardsaves, dont rely on quicksave (you can make quick hardsaves by pressing F8 in the main menu)

2. When loading a save, make sure you hit "quit game" first and then load a save

3. Try to not leave a map before finishing all the tasks you started there, unless they directly lead to another map. The more quests you have, the more stable it can be, so just try to grab 3-4-5 and finish them before leaving the map (in case you want to leave of course)

4. There may be a moment where it does get corrupted.
   Theres a bit of text next to your minimap like f1 to use x item, the time and whatever. If you see that disappear completely load a save. Don't make a save before looking into this because it will make it corrupted.

[unborn ledge]

I will keep this in mind next time I play

[gaunt sonnet]

If you dont have smth like a painkiller then that line of quickuse key is gonna disappear. That doesn't count, the entire textbox has to be gone.
Another hint could be the night vision or the doll. If you use them and it doesn't work, that's corrupted.

Now, QoL commands and a single helpful advice

2. to fix the shadow visual bug: use the command "r2_sun_near_border" and change that value to "1.0". You can also find this command on "user.ltx".
   As for shadow distance, try playing with "r2_sun_near", I got mine set to "30" but idk what is good tbh. So far I got no problems.

3. to reduce head bob, use "cam_inert" command, I like to use 0.2 (or somewhere around that) to have some degree of head bob. Not low enough to remove it but not high enough to make you vomit

4. when you find an artifact that looks like a watch, just keep it. You'll know when to use it

And thats about it, sorry for the wall of text but its to give you the best experience

I love the stuff you post on tumblr, think I found out about you over there.

[distant prairie]

Ah, you are my tumblr-bro) Sorry for my autistic behavior, I rarely come to discord😅

Thank you❤

[whole ibex]

I just completed my playthrough of CoP enhanced edition and now im planning on playing SoC and it looks very dated, how should i play it to make as similar as CoP do i just play the ehnanced edition or do i mod it

[ebon tusk]

play the original

[gaunt sonnet]

They look almost the same really, theres a couple more effects on vanilla CoP but thats it.

Just play the original really

If you really want some graphical overhal, although I promise you its not needed because the game artstyle is very good, I can recommend this modpack: #⭐┃nospoilers_general message

But always remember that more pixelated graphics doesn't mean the graphics are bad; they have consistency, variety and artistic intention

[whole ibex]

im pretty fine with the graphics and i really hate the total overhaul 5k mods skyrim looking ones but im mainly thinking about weapon animations and fov

[gaunt sonnet]

Well, the one I sent has that modifiable

If not, you have SWR or FWR for true vanilla iirc

Although idk if fov mods work with those

But the one I sent has animations already, and because its on the ogsr engine, it should have a modifiable fov

[whole ibex]

alright thank you

i think ill play original but with zrp installed

[neon socket]

then use gunslinger mod

oh wait i read that wrong, ur playin SoC afaik its only for CoP

[gaunt sonnet]

There is one for soc but only for the ogsr engine version

[bleak light]

hey guys uh, can i ask modding related questions here (specifically, about modpacks)

[gaunt sonnet]

Sure

[bleak light]

well i've been looking for a modpack for call of pripyat thats built like the LFO (which is a modpack for stalker clear sky) and uh, i couldnt really find one and uh

did you happen to know any thats well, built like that

[gaunt sonnet]

I honestly havent tried LFO, but if you give me a rough idea of what you like about it, I can probably check if there is one for CoP

[bleak light]

well it improves basically everything about the game, from the visuals to the gunplay, kinda like radiophobia 3

[gaunt sonnet]

Well, first of all, if you havent played CoP vanilla, I highly recommend it hehe, cause at the end, you will be playing very different games at this point. And in this case I wouldnt call radiophobia an improvement. The more I hear about it, the more its just "SoC but Gamma-fied and poorly implemented new stuff" lol

But yes, I can give you a couple (all of this will be experiences from others, I havent tried them myself):
-Misery I heard is pretty good. It's a bit infamous, but it's got nice features for a more hardcore-ish, and I'm sure it's got a lot of addons for your liking.

-Lex Addon also seems great, new economy and more hardcore-ish gameplay, as well as new items

-There's also Gunslinger that changes gunplay and a few gameplay elements a lot (mostly changes that)

And thats kinda it

You have some other "modpacks" on CoP if you sort through "most popular" in moddb and if you want to try them out

But I can't really talk about their quality

[bleak light]

Well damn, thats definietly a lot more detailed than i initially expected and uh, thanks for the recommendations gng

[gaunt sonnet]

Just remember, none are recommended for a first playthrough, just an addition/2nd playthrough stuff

But well, if you really dont care about vanilla, you have that

[whole ibex]

which mods keep you in the "hobo phase" for a long time (i will not play gamma)

[gaunt sonnet]

Well I can't say for sure, but I can recommend some freeplays if you want, and then limit yourself if they are too easy:
CoTZ
Maybe Anomaly with Old World Addon
Dollchan
Legend Returns
Team Lite
Stason

[ebon tusk]

its called Misery

you want the bad mods

[civic pewter]

GSWR Wasted Sky

Teamlite is chit.

[gaunt sonnet]

And?

[hard tangle]

any modpack sugestion for CS that is not LFO bc i tried that and is broken af, this is my second playthrough tho

[gaunt sonnet]

At this point, I can't suggest modpacks, but standalone mods, because there aren't that many for CS to begin with:

Clear Sky Revision adds a lot of cut content, as well as having a lot of addons for a more personalized playthrough

And theres a 2022 version of LFO I can give you

And uh, thats kinda it

Oh, theres also ABR, its on moddb

You can also search through moddb and ap-pro, as well as other stalker related websites, for yourself

People post their own modpacks that include a lot of addons made by others, or maybe you'll find a good curated one

1.0, 1.0 (patch 1), and 1.0 (patch 2)

i meant clear sky renewal

[civic pewter]

that change the thingis, send the log

if u can, send the log to the moddb page of the mod

aaaaaaaaaa

u already send that

well, perhaps would be solved on the 4.0, when?, idk

[dusky inlet]

i did already

its a broken script as it is in the files its just broken and has not actual animation tied to it I am assuming an NPC is standing idle with an L85 and it trying to play an animation that isnt implemented correctly as its a custom script

not found in vanilla scripts

Surprisingly the game hasnt crashed yet

I'm actually starting to think i fixed it ages ago and didnt test it

it would appear i just removed the code that was causing issues lol

[hard tangle]

thanks man, i wanted a modpack or mod collection for CS in steam, but is not problem for me to play a standalone version, the only thing i wanted is play CS again but refreshed with new graphics and no bugs or crashes at all

[gaunt sonnet]

Ah, well, for that you can use SRP for bug fixes
CS complete claims to only be a visual overhaul only with no bugs but idk how good it is

Oh, and this mod, Sky Renewal, seems much better: https://www.moddb.com/mods/sky-renewal-mod

Wassup y'all, I'm a newbie to the Stalker world. I know this question must have been asked several times but I'm getting confused with all the mods, are there some modlists or modpacks JUST for the absolute best graphics, without modifying the story ?

[gaunt sonnet]

For SoC, you have absolute nature HD packs, should be on Moddb. You also have Autumn Aurora, but idk if it changes anything else. I also have a modpack that I can share made by a friend if you want the list, which changes quite some stuff, but its still vanilla story untouched, and I love how it looks and plays.

For CS, Sky Renewal Mod, it's also on Moddb

For CoP, I don't know much about this. Maybe CoP Complete? But idk.
CoP Enhanced Edition, even with the muddy graphics it has, feels like an improvement in the graphics department

[plain tartan]

Thank you very much ! I'm interested by the modlist for SoC please

Oh, sorry, I'm an idiot. There's a new engine called IX-Ray, and it's amazing. Improves visuals and performance a ton, doesn't affect the story at all. And doesn't look muddy like the enhanced edition does

I mean, just look at this thing

[rich sage]

It looks good, but does it play good is probably the most important question?

[gaunt sonnet]

It plays either the same or better than the original thanks to being on 64bit and having multithreadding

I used max settings (fully maxed out) and it was really smooth, had like 170 fps on the first area and it didnt stress my cpu as much as the original did (because the processing power is distributed)

[timber nest]

wait... this is a mod?

[gaunt sonnet]

Its an engine, but yeah

You put it on top of cop iirc and its done

[timber nest]

how do i install that?

[gaunt sonnet]

https://github.com/ixray-team/ixray-1.6-stcop
Go to the quick start

it's cool cause it's being used now as a tool for many incoming mods

so instead of using an old engine, they use this

[gaunt sonnet]

@timber nest open the game from steam btw

Not from the bin.exe

Had to compress the videos, but just look at the difference. I'm not even stressing my laptop (and it's locked at 144fps), and the performance is great

Its a one drive link btw, so dont worry lol. Read the "Must read" section of the read me before you play

Most important thing is to turn up the gamma, exposure and saturation settings to 1.15 at least (cause otherwise, you get a really dark feeling, while vanilla soc is more colourful. Although if you like it, leave it on, depends on you), and keep in mind the wild territory thing

For the rest, plug and play

I should use google drive, but I have the one drive plan, so its more space

[thin compass]

Thank you!

[thin compass]

Do you have a list of what the modpack does exactly? I know the engine is new but that's pretty much it, also is ZRP included?

It has zrp yeah. You have the list of mods in the readme too

[thin compass]

Copy that

I just read it, I think that's perfect honestly.

ah, frick it, I'm excited, I'll post a few screenshots

I think it's got better speed

but when I try to download it, it was like 40mb/s

Lemme redo

[thin compass]

Think so, it keeps doing errors when downloading

Its not downloading correctly

[gaunt sonnet]

it stops at 100%?

if so, check your download's folder, or try to do the "save as" and check that place

for some reason that thing happend to me. Even tho the download wouldn't finish, I would have the mod downloaded either way, and could play it normally

yeah, I'm sending this through google drive, I hate Microsoft

[thin compass]

no it downloads but then it has errors inside

it says 2 folders missing

The Exception had that modded Agroprom above. Ran terribly even on my pretty good PC

The agroprom new project showed off looks very cool

[high ocean]

Excited for New Project. Definitly one of the most ambitious projects in a while.

[idle matrix]

yeah i found it

[civic pewter]

im beta tester of the mod

In my experience was well, smth new apart of the Hispanic-VA for example.
Atleast on the parts that i tried (first map) the experience was solid, i hope that the mod had more players on the future.
Is promising to me, the main dev did a lot of work since 2023 and has ideas that could be new for the most people, i recommend read every article.

[high ocean]

Thats really cool! I'm planning on playing it once it comes out. It says it's ~30 hours long? Has ~65 missions? Definitly will check it out! I dont think I have the time to be a beta tester though, thoughd I wish I could.

[civic pewter]

Has a lot of content, yes, and not only that

has replayability too

It's inspired on CoP and Jekan mods on the RPG thingis, even the main dev talked with jekan about "what matter for the player" on the non-linear thingis, i hope that be a great experience for a lot of users.

[high ocean]

Good thing Jekan's mods are my favorite. If they're directly inspired by him, I dont doubt the mod will be good 😄

What do you mean by Non-Linear things?

[civic pewter]

Smth fresh on the CoCk-scene

[civic pewter]

RPG thingis, the mod apparently has several routes for a lot of quests and more thingis related to the adventure of the player, sooo too it's made for make a second playthrought or more.

[high ocean]

Oh, kind of like BC2? I havent played BC2 but I heard it's in high regard for that reason.

[civic pewter]

Idk

i don't played Bad Company 2

[high ocean]

Me neither, I dont know why I mentioned it. I havent seen many mods tackle the whole "different routes for quests" thing much. It sounds like a pain on a technical and gameplay standpoint.

[civic pewter]

id will compare it with every S.T.A.L.K.E.R game on that aspect (except MOBILE ), according to the part that i played and according to the parts about know.

[high ocean]

Even the cancelled Xbox 360 edition? or the cancelled PSP edition? or the cancelled STALKER ONLINE mmo which died in a second? How will VESSEL compete with those?!

[civic pewter]

id will compare it with every S.T.A.L.K.E.R game that wasn't killed by GSC

[cinder oxide]

Did that lake portion exist somewhere else? I swear I've seen it in another mod

The first area of Return to the Zone maybe?

what is GA i cant find that

sorry im new to modding the older games

[hollow mulch]

I believe you are looking for a modern version of SoC. You have 100s of options. OGSR GA as mentioned is really good, its basically a remaster that includes elements that were cut from the original (sort of). You have SoC update which is another remaster but stronger on the visuals. Then you have Radiophobia 3 which feels similar to anomaly with SoC storyline.
You will have to google search these.

[worldly orbit]

thank you

[hollow mulch]

Oh and I cant forget Assembly by Sam.
I made a video about it last year.

[ebon tusk]

OGSR GA isnt a "modernizzation of SOC", its a new game, it adds story and NPCs as well as new zones and massively changes the game

brothers, I have completed the trilogy and replayed them, thinking about getting into modding, but I wouldnt know where to start. anomaly is straightforward asf but I was wondering about the other mods, do you guys use a mod launcher or something?

[gaunt sonnet]

For other mods, not generally, as they come repacked already

For anomaly you can use MO2

What kind of mods are you looking btw? So as to give recommendations accordingly

[slate kiln]

honestly, Im looking for something that feels like a sequel or prequel, perferrably more difficult than the og and perferrably with weapon upgrades but the first criteria is the only main one

[ebon tusk]

play OGSR Legacy

[gaunt sonnet]

Ok so, I don't know much about sequels (mayyyyyybe spatial anomaly or return to the zone? I dont know honestly).
But, theres a mod that sets itself way back to 2008: Goldsphere (made by the same guy that made return to the zone)

Theres an ogse and ogsr version. I prefer to play ogse because of the atmosphere, but I first should give you some tips before playing it, so you dont get save corruption

There's the ogsr port that fixes many bugs (although also introduces new ones), fixes saves corruption (or 99% of it at least) but it changes some stuff that I thought were stupid, as well as destroying the atmosphere of the original mod. There's a patch that makes it better tho

You choose which

[civic pewter]

Wind of Time for sequel
Valley of Whispers for sequel too

FOTOGRAF for prequel

[gaunt sonnet]

Is there a good mod for the original Shadow of Chernobyl that only overhauls the engine and graphics? No gameplay changes? Like OGSR but no gameplay changes

[gaunt sonnet]

Boy, do I have the one for you: #🔩┃trilogy_modifications message

You should read the readme first btw, to avoid issues and to tweak the brightness settings

But its literally what you are asking: SoC in the OGSR engine.
The only advantage/disadvantage it has is that it uses ZRP

[patent bear]

Yeah perfect that's all I want!

ZRP is bug fixes, that's all I wanted. SoC with stabulity improvements and maybe a texture pack or two. Cheers 🙂

[gaunt sonnet]

It also has new weapon animations! So thats cool.
Hope you enjoy it. If you can, let me know what you think about it, criticism, stuff. The guy that made it likes to improve on it

[patent bear]

From the readme it seems like it has taken uncut/unfinished content from the alpha? Is that right? Or did this pack integrate the animations only

I'm all good with graphics overhauls and bug fixes, but anything adding new gameplay like the option to join a faction etc idk about that

is it just a case of download, extract and it should work

[gaunt sonnet]

Yeah, exactly like that

[gaunt sonnet]

And well, it does include the option to join a faction, but that is very much optional, because its included in ZRP

You dont have to tho. But thats one of the things that zrp integrates by default iirc

And from the Lost Alpha thing, nothing new for gameplay, just textures and models

And there is the ability to repair, but once again, comes with ZRP iirc and you dont have to use it

[patent bear]

ok nice

will give it a go

patch 1.7 S2 is v fun, but since there's a few bugs like missing power lines etc tempted to start replaying SoC whilst they work that out

[gaunt sonnet]

😎

Never a bad time to jump back to peak

[patent bear]

@gaunt sonnet no luck, running ogsr_engine.exe in bin_64 is instant crashing... same with all the other exes in that folder

what gives

I just extracted it, tried running it, no luck

does it need to be copied and pasted into the install directory of Shadow of Chernobyl? I thought it was a standalone download
