[graceful badge]

Nothing to do with the builds and stuff

[ebon tusk]

then why name it OL

[graceful badge]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ebon tusk]

alright

then I assume Lost Alpha DC is better than Lost Alpha

[graceful badge]

Idk about that

Ig it is but haven't tried it

[compact wolf]

accidentally played it thinking it was Oblivion Lost Remake, it's basically slightly modded shadow of chernobyl with a stupid ending

[steep pike]

Yeah it's totally different game.They added many things that were missing from previous version and fixed most of the bugs.It actually became one of the good mods out there.

[neon socket]

does anybody know how to get the soc sdk nowadays? the forum link is dead

[true jewel]

Does anyone know any sandbox mod for CoP or SoC?

Like uhh

Idk

Just freeplay in general

Like you can choose factions and such

[bronze violet]

Anomaly has a warfare mode, you can choose your faction and compete with the others faction for the control of the zone

[spare mantle]

Simple Call of Chernobyl, but i recomend you not playing just standart COC, install some mods from moddb on it

[eager tendon]

Do mods for Anomaly 1.5.0 work for 1.5.1?

[warped cliff]

Depends, most don't and some require fiddling around

[eager tendon]

Huh

I wonder if I could "fiddle" them into working with good 'ol Notepad++...

[true jewel]

does Gunslinger needs a new game?

[snow umbra]

Standalone

Actually

Iirc it starts its own

[wild osprey]

Depends on the mod. If it modifies something that's changed between the two versions then it won't work. If it modifies something that hasn't changed (IE some of the sound files) then you should be fine.

I wonder if I could "fiddle" them into working with good 'ol Notepad++
Pretty much what I did. Only using good ol' OG Notepad instead. 😁
My success has varied depending on the complexity of the mod though.

[true jewel]

can anyone give me a list of mods for CoP that doesnt require me to start a new game

[graceful basalt]

Most of them require to start a new game

Unless it's some small mod

[wild osprey]

Pretty much anything that adds new assets will require a restart. The game engine, in a sense, front-loads all the models, meshes, animations, textures, and stuff like that, meaning anything you try to mod in after-the-fact will either just not appear or will crash the game. The only exception appears to be sounds, which seemingly only trigger when used.

Modifications to scripts, configs, latex files, etc should work fine. But be careful about modding one thing, using it in that state for a while, and then changing it. You're not liable to crash the game but it does seem to create some...Unusual behaviour. 😁

[true jewel]

Cool

Thanks for the explanation

Also uh

Gunslinger is a cool mod

Really wanted to complete the game like this but...

I haven't even finished the vanilla game yet

[neon socket]

I’m about to complete the ORL 2.5 mod, and it’s been a blast honestly but I just wanted to know about the different endings? I got the bad ending but I’ve watched various russian streamers (who I don’t understand, and there’s no English subtitles for) and there’s another ending where you continue to a lab. I want to know how to get that one

[winged dragon]

how to make dead air look like this?

i tried color correction/vibrancy it didnt really work

[inner spindle]

yeah I’ve got problem

I use the Anomaly launcher and it won’t launch the game, nothing happens

It says “tools\checksums.md5 missing”

[neon socket]

Try just running the exe file

That’s what I do when I see that error

[inner spindle]

I fixed it finally

Ok so I bought a universal weapon repair kit from Mangun to fix this G3 sniper I found, how do I do this??

[lament oxide]

Check their discord and read the in game guides

[neon socket]

Guys I still get freezes crash in gunslinger misry mod can someone help pls

[violet cave]

no way to avoid that at all, not even an ssd helps much

[lament oxide]

Gunslinger is really unstable

[neon socket]

So normal misery mod then

The 2.2.1

Daaaamn

[neon socket]

is this a right channel to talk about game crashing?

[tiny steppe]

@neon socket #🔨-technical

[neon socket]

Well i did ask but no one reply. I'll just wait

[tiny steppe]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[regal kestrel]

so like some of you recommended i completed CoP vanilla

now i wanna mod it

im thinking about getting CoC and some gun mods

ie better gun reloads, maybe more realistic damage but i havent really had problems with gun damage on some of the higher difficulties

and probably more guns

and also gun modifications

i dont have much experience with modding

[ebon tusk]

in anomaly,after dealing with sin and killing every unisg task on jupiter,after finding strelok and stitch,where is rogue,I can't find him

it's like the bugger has vanished

[brittle dove]

Which faction do you choose? (translation by yours truly)

[eager tendon]

Clear Sky

Why are there Cuban communist revolutionaries in the Zone

[brittle dove]

They are supposedly a subgroup of freedom or something

[eager tendon]

Enclave

[warped cliff]

Umbrella

[eager tendon]

gimme the Wehrmacht death squad

[brittle dove]

Half of these are just different types of monolith or bandits

[warped cliff]

I've read Diggers wrong

[brittle dove]

Uh oh

GSC should add all of these into S2

[eager tendon]

Where are these from, btw?

[brittle dove]

I found the original image on some long forgotten forums and translated it

I have no idea in which mods these appear

[regal kestrel]

god bless the enclave

[eager tendon]

THERE'S

DARK SKIES

[brittle dove]

They are clear sky but have an army of mutants and ride motorcycles

I'm not making that up

[eager tendon]

Cleak Sky's evil twin

[brittle dove]

They haven't appeared in any mod, but they are a faction on some obscure amino rp groups

[eager tendon]

[warped cliff]

Kek

[brittle dove]

https://youtu.be/Nj3xTURaXuk

Check out this guy's channel it has some info on most of them

[eager tendon]

[inner spindle]

What in the actual hell are the Great Khans doing in the zone

shouldn’t they be in like, Wyoming

[ebon tusk]

what are they doing with clear skys name good god

[eager tendon]

then there's just Tiger

not even a group, just singular

[brittle dove]

http://old.ap-pro.ru/forum/82-7714-1 here are the descriptions of these factions

[wild osprey]

And yet, still no therianthrope 'Strangers'.

[swift stratus]

Flame got the third reich acting up bro

[regal kestrel]

can someone help me mod the game?

[graceful badge]

Welp, what do you exactly want?

[regal kestrel]

well i want to mod it and i dont really know how

[graceful badge]

But like, weapon pack, graphics enhancement

[regal kestrel]

i generally want CoC and some better weapon reload animations, weapon pack and maybe a magazine mod

[graceful badge]

CoC is standalone

Just download and play,

As for the weapon pack hmmmm

Wait a sec

I think there's STCoP and AO3 for CoC

As for the magazines idk

[regal kestrel]

isnt like CoC good with modable too?

[graceful badge]

Yeah it is

But it's stand alone in the sense that you don't need the main game to play it

You could uninstall CoP and play CoC normally

The thing with CoC is that is a freeplay mod with no story whatsoever, just wander and do fetch quests and kill and loot

[regal kestrel]

oh really? i didnt know that

[regal kestrel]

yes i know, ive completed CoP vanilla

[graceful badge]

Supposedly you needed to have opened CoP atleast once for CoC to work but that's fake, according to a friend of mine

[regal kestrel]

ok, so how do i do this

first i should download jsgme, right?

[graceful badge]

That's for Anomaly lol

Or wait,

Idk if it works on CoC

I never used a mod manager for it

[regal kestrel]

its listed in the files of CoC

[violet cave]

it does work with coc

[graceful badge]

Hm

[violet cave]

but i would recommend you try something like memories of the zone for SoC

setting up coc with mods it's a hassle, and if you are asking for help in general it will be kinda hard for you

[regal kestrel]

i mainly want a bigger map and better gunplay

[regal kestrel]

ok so i downloaded CoC and uh when i try to use a mod manager it stops at about half mark and crashes

[lament oxide]

Dont use a mod manager

[regal kestrel]

yeah

that helped

i figured it out myself but still thank you

[neon socket]

In area mod

Is heading north going to be difficult for me?

And should I kill military at start zone for their gear

I ask advice as loner

[graceful badge]

What starting point did You picked

[graceful badge]

At early game yes

I wouldnt Recommend go against military in early

They could one shot You and theres plenty at the checkpoint

[neon socket]

I use healthy as bull marauder stabb wound several hunger and alcohol debuff and last energy

Use my point to buy saw off toz hunting kit few meds drinks foods and extra ammo and artifact preller

Startpoing at checkpoint

[graceful badge]

My recommendation would be that if you aren't too far into it, create a new character and start in the Swamps, should be easier

Because it's impossible to go through the checkpoint so early

[neon socket]

U can run it

There broken fance

[graceful badge]

I always got gunned down

[neon socket]

But I was bad at sneaking

On right side of checkpoint there broken fance

[tiny steppe]

If you mean vanilla CS you can run left

[graceful badge]

We are talking of A.R.E.A

I have no issue going through Vova

After like 6 tries

[neon socket]

I feel u

[neon socket]

Anyway how I lower the distance ingame

I feel like would start recording stalker area loner mode XD

[neon socket]

Man in every stalker game i got hate freedom

[wild osprey]

The faction or the metaphysical concept?

[tiny steppe]

:c

[eager tendon]

Well obviously he is against a basic human right

[tiny steppe]

Yes

Frick human rights

You dont need em

[eager tendon]

[neon socket]

No is just their ideally and friendly to bandits

Same goes to duty who friendly to military but bandits dose the real damage in zone and freedom is ok with it as long they get high on drugs

Damn hippies

[misty yoke]

hi, i'm looking forward to play NLC 7, is it stable? I don't wanna bother installing something that will crash frequently

[karmic wasp]

pretty stable

problem is the mod itself

[misty yoke]

what exactly? the machine translation? glitched mechanics?

[karmic wasp]

uhhhh

well it's the hardest "overly realistic" mod i've ever played

it's even harder than misery

if you're into that kind of thing go for it

but i gotta admit

[graceful basalt]

It's unfairly hard at the first time but it's a lot interesting than Anomaly.

[karmic wasp]

i did like the heavy atmosphere looming over

but the gameplay is way too much for me

it's easily the most slow-paced mod i've ever seen

[misty yoke]

cool, sounds just like the kind of thing i am looking for!

[neon socket]

Quick question how good is hunting kit

Nvm found it and it's useless

[neon socket]

bro

zrp anti perma radiation patch aint working

what do

[swift stratus]

ayo what happened to ray of hope?

[ebon tusk]

it's still in development

[ebon tusk]

I dunno what happened,mind being more especific?

[neon socket]

If ray of hope do show up I would remind people that I will start raiding merc and freedom base for good loot any free stalker is welcome to join

[karmic wasp]

ray of hope barely resembles stalker at this point in my opinion

it looks like a damn mmo

xr multiplayaer extention is what i've wanted for years

[warped cliff]

RoH is just a prettier Stalker Online

[karmic wasp]

yup EXACTLY

i was always trying to put it into words but couldnt

[ebon tusk]

I never played Stalker online,somehow I got my account locked before even loging in

[fleet pike]

Guys hi

i only started playing stalker but i have all three parts. Do you know any mods i can dowload like graphics or new guns ?

[ebon tusk]

why not vannila tho?

[karmic wasp]

let's be honest though
nothing really wrong with improving the graphical look of a 2007 game and swapping the terrible weapon models/anims for something better

[ebon tusk]

yhea,thats true...

[ebon tusk]

for SoC,Autumn Aurora is a good bet

[karmic wasp]

nope nope nbope

nope

nu-uh

big big gameplay chaning mod

changing*

[ebon tusk]

really?I haven't realy played

it

[karmic wasp]

if it was just a graphics overhaul i would agree

but it changes the gameplay a lot

[ebon tusk]

I heard about it but

[fleet pike]

i know that gunslinger mod is good

[karmic wasp]

pretty sure it also alters the vanilla gameplay

[ebon tusk]

Gunslinger is for CoP

[karmic wasp]

and it's for COP yea

[fleet pike]

ok i have COP

[karmic wasp]

soc is the first in order, clear sky after and cop is the last

in release order that is

[ebon tusk]

you wont understand a lot if you dont start with SoC

but who am I to reign waht you play and not play

[fleet pike]

I am at Yantar in SOC

[karmic wasp]

wow damn i thought you didnt even start lol

[swift stratus]

so if not autumn aurora

then whats a good mod for SoC?

[fleet pike]

Got killed 10 times by zombies

[swift stratus]

that doesnt change the vanilla gameplay

[karmic wasp]

hmmm
for graphics?

[swift stratus]

yeah

maybe some weapon anims as well

just to not make it look stiff and outdated

[karmic wasp]

well i dont really like it much personally but

[graceful badge]

Absolute Nature ig

[karmic wasp]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/xpresstunings-remaster-edition

Is dise not have anything like original stalker but ray of hope is like trying to make better stalker online game so ya I am sticking for Roh if I am hoping

[karmic wasp]

just wanna make it a bit clear again in case ya missed it

[fleet pike]

[karmic wasp]

those are the mods included in the pack i linked

you dont need to get all of em in separate

[fleet pike]

btw how do i install mods on Stalker?

[karmic wasp]

i think there should be a readme in the mod download

[swift stratus]

stalker online looks like a mess

[karmic wasp]

stalker online IS a mess

[swift stratus]

i just wanna experience actual stalker with the homies

Ray of Hope looks good

the weapon models look high fidelity

[ebon tusk]

xr multiplayer then

[karmic wasp]

yeah let's hope the XR multiplayer extention guys step it out

[swift stratus]

something i like

XR?

ill have to take a look

[ebon tusk]

Xray

[karmic wasp]

it's straight up multiplayer stalker
it's in a closed testing stage but

[fleet pike]

Somebody: csgo is best multipleyer shooter

[karmic wasp]

it's just straighip up stalker but multiplayer

[ebon tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-we-cant-expect-gif-15199201

[fleet pike]

ME: stalker multipleyer is for real men

https://tenor.com/view/dancingpolishcowemojisized-gif-18779803

[neon socket]

XR ?

What that

[snow umbra]

XRMPE - X-Ray Multiplayer Extension

A co-op mod being worked on right now

[fleet pike]

in stalker there was or is a multiplayer

[neon socket]

and how it work

[snow umbra]

Still is

[neon socket]

Using vanilla?

[snow umbra]

In the vanilla stalker it's just a meh deathmatch

[neon socket]

Or can we use mods like misery

[snow umbra]

Bruh

[fleet pike]

not like a coop like a pvp on small maps from vanila stalker

[snow umbra]

That's why XRMPE is being made

Co-op exploring the Zone

[karmic wasp]

based on Call of Pripyat

well not the areas

the mod itself

[neon socket]

so maps from other stalker games eh

Coop

That cool

So I can get in my exoskeleton suit while my buddy is ragtag scrap

Man when I start playing misery blackroad I had to check how much time I got before sunrise and what time I need to set out again ha

[fleet pike]

btw

we all know this big brain in one of labs

what is it?

[neon socket]

Call of Chernobyl?

[fleet pike]

yea

[ebon tusk]

there iss a market for ROH,but it's not for the ones looking for normal stalker

[karmic wasp]

SOC

[neon socket]

Brain scorch

I think

[fleet pike]

nonon

[karmic wasp]

nah that's not it

the yantar psychic brain

[fleet pike]

The brain in colbe

let me find a photo

[neon socket]

@ebon tusk ik ik but its look better then garbage stalker online tho

[karmic wasp]

the psi-emission research thing and eventually the source of the psi-emission that's over yantar in SOC

[neon socket]

Hm

[ebon tusk]

the lab,I dunno the number rn

[fleet pike]

this thing called brain vat

[neon socket]

Hey dont u need documents in dead air to improve rep with a faction to get better stuff in shop

[ebon tusk]

X-18

is the house of the prototype Kaymanov emitter

the X-16 is the bunker in yantar with the documents

[neon socket]

Got love call of chernobyl

Kill this man

Turn out you are that man

Kill that man anyway XE

[ebon tusk]

you mean Shadow of Chernobyl?

[neon socket]

Ya

Never trust someone not even yourself meme haha

[gleaming trench]

I saw something about OP-2.1 in the #🟢-reddit channel and after looking some stuff up about it my curiosity is peaked, what's it about?

[graceful badge]

It's a soup mod

With lots of content and hundreds of hours of storyline

Can't tell much, haven't played it but it looks good and apparently it's big af

[gleaming trench]

wow

[graceful badge]

Ofc since it's a soup mod you know what that means right

[gleaming trench]

not a clue

[violet cave]

derivatives of narodnaya solyanka2011 and 2016

although technically, nlc were the first soups

[graceful badge]

Lots of quantity, but also probably lots of jank, not that it makes it less good or anything , and it's also probably gonna have some cursed stuff into it

[gleaming trench]

everything you just said makes me want to play it more

[graceful badge]

That's the spirit

[gleaming trench]

after I finish SoC and CS since I still haven't yet

[violet cave]

most people either love it or hate it. If you plan on finishing, be ready to spend an irl year or two on it

[gleaming trench]

an entire year?

wow

[karmic wasp]

yes

i watch a guy on youttube right
he has played solyanka before and knows exactly what to do

he cuts out all the moments where he just walks around with nothing happening or boring side quests

there's over 140 parts in his playthrough

and each are 40-70 minutes long

that should give you an idea of how long solyanka will take
but the funny part is?

it's a goddamn terrible mod in my opinion

it has a backwards difficulty progression - the game starts off hard as hell and gets easier as you go

vast majority of the time you'll be walking around collecting garbage for extremely repetitive hoarding side quests that reward you with ammo/equipment which is prtty much impossible to play without

throw some overpowered mutants/enemies into the mix that will take minutes to kill unless you use good ammo

and good ammo is in those boring side quests

by then end it's just dialogue and dialogue and dialogue
also did i mention obscene stashes that are also a requirement for proper gameplay?

a lot of quests even have stash hunting as an objective

problem is that they're hidden in the dumbest spots

and fanfic-tier writing

[gleaming trench]

I tolerated Fallout: The frontier and a fair few of the points match up so I may like some of it

[karmic wasp]

strelok literallly gets married at the end

[ebon tusk]

then good thing when I tried to run it it always crashed at the start of the game

[karmic wasp]

very good thing

[graceful badge]

I personally enjoy Solyankas 15 times more than any freeplay mod i've played, but it's a matter of tastes i guess

[graceful basalt]

I bet any Solyanka would be better than a freeplay

[graceful badge]

Ofc it is

[upbeat vapor]

Longest mod ever TLDR

You need years to beat it

It goes like this

1. OLR
2. Lost Alpha
3. Wind of Time
4. Spatial Anomaly
5. NLC7
6. OP 2.1

Imho

[graceful basalt]

[gleaming trench]

After thinking about it all of the STALKER games had backwards difficulty for me, starting off really difficult and not being able to hit the broadside of a barn, then at the end hitting almost every shot

[tiny steppe]

Yeah

Clear sky was really hell in the swamps

But im already at the first underground part and ive got decent guns

[lunar kettle]

It's ball bustingly hard because you are expected to become a unkillable machine with ridiculously OP armour, artefacts and weapons. I don't know what you are talking about honestly, every game to have ever existed is like that.

With the whole "we will give you the best weapons at the last 2 missions" trope

[lunar kettle]

Is 6 mean to signify the longest?? Otherwise that's a bad list lmao

[graceful badge]

I think he means from Best to worst

[upbeat vapor]

Yeah, no

It means the best mods out there worth your time in my opinion

I forgot Anomaly somewhere, Dead Air too

[lunar kettle]

Oh alright

[sudden wasp]

Got bored of stalker until I tried the Anomaly mod. My favorite so far, right behind is COC and after that is Autumn Aurora for CoP

[true jewel]

Is misery a good mod?

All I've heard about it was that it's hard

And the developers are salty

[sudden wasp]

Its a bit overly complicated for my taste but some people like the hardcore ultra immersiveness

[graceful badge]

From what ive heard Misery is aight, aslong as youre alright with slow progression, high difficulty and sttutering

Only real Bad thing being the sttutering because of how unoptimized it is

[gleaming trench]

Is there a story in Anomaly? I've heard a lot of people say it's good but I have no clue where to go

[sudden wasp]

Yea the main story is there, plus faction missions and nearly every npc will give you a mission

The main story you get right away in the rookie village lol its easy just talk to sidorovich

Well depending on which faction you choose but you can always change factions

[gleaming trench]

What about free stalkers?

[sudden wasp]

Free stalker is my go to, start in rookie village, pretty straight forward

Ask sidorovich about strelok

That should initiate the main quest

Then along the way you can do quests for the faction leaders

[gleaming trench]

what should I take with me to the zone

[sudden wasp]

When you get there, you'll already know

If you have good armor and helmet with rad protection, rifle with ap ammo, shotgun for mutants, food, water and health kits you'll be fine

[true jewel]

good god dead air looks beautiful

idk if my laptop can handle this thing

is there an option to lower it to the vanilla game's graphics?

[ebon tusk]

I never played dead air for that reason

[violet cave]

Dead Air is suprisingly greatly optimized. It's barely worse than vanilla CoP performance

[true jewel]

hmmm

im trying to choose between misery and dead air

[pseudo sandal]

why not both

[violet cave]

Dead Air is standalone, so you can choose both

[true jewel]

for real

aight gonna download misery first

[ebon tusk]

misery as a addon thats gunslinger animations

[true jewel]

yeah im download misery gunslinger

[karmic wasp]

want to try out oblivion lost remake

anything i should know before installing/playing?

[graceful badge]

It's basically the recreation of the builds, you probably already know that

[karmic wasp]

kinda yea
not a fan of the build's aesthetic but i've played basically every other mod out there so might as well give it a shot

[graceful badge]

It's a lot more atmospheric than SoC, there's literal swarms of mutants, and not too many actual human npc's

The Zone is emptier than in SoC

And looks a lot less forgiving

[karmic wasp]

hmm aight
we'll see how it is
soc was pretty populated so that's not a big deal

but iunno about the "mutant swarms" thing

lost alpha really pissed me off with it's boar swarms

[graceful badge]

When i mean swarms i mean that running will barely get you out alive

||First time in Agroprom, like 20 boars running towards you||

[karmic wasp]

ah
classic boar swarms

im used to those by now

[graceful badge]

And in garbage like 30 dogs or some ship

So yeah mutants are terribly dangerous in their numbers

[karmic wasp]

what about the story? is it just soc with differences

[graceful badge]

Uhh, idk much since i haven't gotten too far into it

It's got it's differences, you wake up in Sid's bunker but it's not Sid it's Toad

And you have to do different things and stuff, really can't tell much from where i am

[karmic wasp]

aight
sounds like a run of the mill stalker mod
downloadin

[drifting jetty]

anyone knows where the emission warning soundfile would be in cop?

i want to get the "attention, attention, an emission is approaching, find cover immediately!" and add it to anomaly

[compact wolf]

Definitely a unique story that resembles soc, there are also plenty of side quests. I finished it not too long ago so I will be able to help you if you get stuck in the story. It definitely wants you to read dialogue carefully because that's the only guidance you're gonna get.

If youve never played Lost Alpha, the maps will make it fresh because theyre different.

[cunning crypt]

hey mods

[graceful badge]

Wait nvm i misread lmao

Just ping one of the mods and ask them what you want

[ebon tusk]

ask something from mods with a meme,great idea

[wild osprey]

But it's so cool though... 😢

[raven kelp]

[ebon tusk]

why do you have the food and drug patch without the mod

[raven kelp]

oh i thought required meant just required in general -w-

[ebon tusk]

only if you have the mod

[raven kelp]

ok that makes sense

and i can see how a null string can be there if it’s trying to patch something that doesn’t exist

[ebon tusk]

@raven kelp did it work now?

[violet cave]

it's a stash issue, try uninstalling stash overhaul

[raven kelp]

issue still broken when i uninstall the food and drug patch

[ebon tusk]

#🔩┃trilogy_modifications message try his fix,I never ran with stash overhaul

[raven kelp]

ayyyy

stash overhaul was the problem

[raven kelp]

tysm! and thanks vasim for helping as well

[swift stratus]

whats the name of that mod manager

[ebon tusk]

generic mod manager

[swift stratus]

lmfao nvm

hey does ZRP work with the AMK mod?

like i dont have to worry about anything

[ebon tusk]

does it say so on the mod page?

[swift stratus]

okay nvm everything ive just said

my game is crashing

everytime i try to launch

because of some mods i installed that came with the AMK mod

not sure how to fix it

i think ill just backup my saves and reinstall

how do i do that?

[swift stratus]

found a tutorial, nvm

[neon socket]

What mod

[upbeat vapor]

@tired wraith If you wonder about story/freeplay mods, as those are content rich...

Spatial, Wind of Time, NLC7. Anomaly's the most recent one which quite well nails some aspects of the series.

Not everyone likes it, yet it's the most polished

Spatial Anomaly 2's been in development for some time, I'm eager to see where it goes

[true jewel]

Yo guys

How do I install the Dead Air translation and bug fixes

[graceful basalt]

Man, there's a whole guide...
https://www.moddb.com/mods/dead-air/downloads/dead-air-english-translation

[true jewel]

where.

youre just giving me the link for a thing i already downloaded.

[graceful basalt]

Then, why do you ask? Just drop it into the game folder.

Don't forget to unpack it before.

[true jewel]

THE BUGFIXES

HOW DO I MERGE THEM

[graceful basalt]

Same

Just drop it.

[true jewel]

both are gamedata folder.

its gonna replace each other

[graceful basalt]

Yes. Localization changes the loc's configs, bug fixes changes the scripts.

All scripts, materials and etc are in the same folder - gamedata.

Try it by yourself.

[true jewel]

so

if I use the bug fix

I can't use translation.

[graceful basalt]

How.

[true jewel]

you know what

forget it

[gleaming trench]

About to play STALKER anomaly
wish me luck

[graceful basalt]

Crap. It's too small.

[raven kelp]

so im having a problem with the https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/bas-anomaly-magazines-patch and https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/anomaly-magazines-for-150-rc mods

essentially it works with bns mod, except i have no way of marking the mags as in the loadout

its meant to be in the right click menu

but this means i have to manually drag the mag in my inventory in order to reload

as theres no way to mark them as in the loadout

it works for my cz-52 mags but not for the AK

[tired wraith]

just downloaded call of chernobyl, its really good

[upbeat vapor]

Bruh

I'm afraid nobody here cares but I'll ask in case

Has anyone tried to make subtitles work for either SoC or CS cinematics via 3rd party plugin?

Say, BikMod for example

[graceful basalt]

Nope.

[upbeat vapor]

I guess it may work

Have to try

[graceful basalt]

Interesting. Subtitles for what...

Literally the whole game or?

[upbeat vapor]

I wish, lol

Cutscenes only

It ain't possible to do closed captions w/o breaking something else, at least for vanilla

Since BikMod was discontinued decade ago, it's hard to find it

Almost nowhere on Google

I have it stored on the portable HDD so I thought I'll give it a whirl

Bikmod allows for adding subtitles to .avi/.bik videos w/o touching the actual videos themselves

Kinda handy

Ship... may not work. Forgot SoC's videos are in ogm format. Shame.

[ebon tusk]

you could make them AVI and make engine accept AVI I think

I never messed with the Xray so

[violet cave]

@upbeat vapor not sure what he used, but i think sashared might have done a su titles mod for soc

[upbeat vapor]

That requires programming skills I don't have ^

The Ingame Captions one? Ficsoport's mod I think. Works though breaks other parts of the game.

[violet cave]

no idea, i never used it

[upbeat vapor]

Seems I gotta do the old school method... Embed subtitles within the videos themselves. Dunno if that would work at all, one has to trial & error.

[true jewel]

okay,so

I managed to merge the game data for dead air

However

Everytime I quit the game it's gonna revert it back

So the next time I'm booting it up it's gonna be in russian again

How do I fix this

[ebon tusk]

I never had that problem

[true jewel]

It's messing up my laptop.

Now Everytime I quit it lags.

[ebon tusk]

I never faced such issues,strange

dead air is pretty well optimized too

[upbeat vapor]

Cracks me up everytime I see the filename

lol

[true jewel]

okay so it didn't lag me

It was some other program

[upbeat vapor]

The Zil 131 truck in the beginning cutscene has Trabant engine!

[true jewel]

Probably bitcoin mining

But

This gamedata thingy

How do I fix it

[ebon tusk]

bro,on laptop mining you are?

[true jewel]

it's a joke lmao

I just assumed the program did a background btc mining or smth

[ebon tusk]

nha youre multitasking,mining in MC while getting scared in dead ai

[true jewel]

lmao

anyway

gamedata

[ebon tusk]

right ok,try reinstalling it,putting the patches and then translation

[true jewel]

there's a folder with russian name on the Dead Air folder,inside it is another folder called dead air

It's messed up however

The name of the folder I mean

Because it's ceryllic

[true jewel]

so I gotta uninstall the whole thing first

[ebon tusk]

it might work I dunno,honestly never had this kind of problem

[violet cave]

or go into the game, settings, and change language form eng to rus

[true jewel]

uh what

[violet cave]

it should show up in english

[true jewel]

lmao

[ebon tusk]

wait I though you couldnt

[true jewel]

lemme just uh

reinstall the patches instead

[upbeat vapor]

DA has language option in the menu

[true jewel]

the localization setting?

[upbeat vapor]

What are you trying to achieve?

[true jewel]

english language

[upbeat vapor]

Options > Game > UI Language

[true jewel]

I DID.

[upbeat vapor]

So, it remains in russian?

[true jewel]

Everytime I quit,yes

And when I play too

[upbeat vapor]

1. Broken translation
2. Redownload the latest version of that
3. Replace the files by hand

[violet cave]

change from eng to rus in-game

[upbeat vapor]

Copy English loc files and paste in the Russian folder

[true jewel]

oh wait this worked

lmao

[ebon tusk]

O my god

[true jewel]

what kind of reverse psychology is this

[ebon tusk]

dude,why didnt you try it first place

[upbeat vapor]

Don't fret. If ST2 doesn't have this, you'll have to go deeper, lol.

[true jewel]

nvm it didn't work.

goddamnit.

[upbeat vapor]

Man I hate how GSC made cutscenes work

Audio in one, video in another file

Come on...

[true jewel]

you know what.

to hell with this mod

it's just shadow of chernobyl from what I've seen so far

goddamnit.

[upbeat vapor]

Dead Air?

You'd be surprised to hear

Most mods add extra content on top of base game so its mostly the same thing you'll see just playing differently

Only few add story content, Spatial Anomaly for example

[true jewel]

yeah I know that

it's just that....

idk

it feels too...

vanilla?

atleast for me

it feels more like shadow of chernobyl than call of pripyat

which I appreciate

it's cool and all but I've played through SoC twice last month

i want something that atleast changes it completely

story is a-okay

something like Gunslinger

or the upcoming Ray of Hope mod

that literally turns it into Escape from Tarkov

[upbeat vapor]

"Upcoming"

Don't hope about it

[violet cave]

changes it completely? play Zaurus Crew mods

[upbeat vapor]

Try Lost Alpha if so

[violet cave]

LA v1.3, DC takes away all the good parts of LA

[upbeat vapor]

Here we go

Time to do what GSC never did, for Loner's sakes

[true jewel]

whats the difference?

[violet cave]

i'd be spoiling you if i told you

[true jewel]

mmmmmm

[upbeat vapor]

Tips and ideas what's the best settings to use when re-encoding the original OGMs?

Turns out the quality goes like from 100 to 10 when doing it

Using Handbrake, dunno

[upbeat vapor]

Fuuuuuuuuu...

Turns out OGM format doesn't support burned in subtitles

Shame on you, GSC...

[upbeat vapor]

Anyways since I didn't know what I was doing, it works. However I need video editing experts to tell me what's the best way to re-encode without losing quality.

[eager tendon]

Is it worth updating Anomaly to 1.5.1? I'm doing pretty good in 1.5.0 (mainly thanks to mods that replace the pieces of rust and rags you get from drops to actual guns and suits). I don't wanna lose my progress here, but I imagine 1.5.1 is probably better overall.

[graceful basalt]

@neon socket Everything is there
https://vk.com/topic-16019701_39182917

[wild osprey]

Mod Aficionados! If I was interested in unpacking the game files for OLR (specifically V2.5 hotfix / "fixx" 46) then how would I go about doing this? I've previously tried using the same unpacker I used to get access to SoC's files but it doesn't seem to work on OLR.
Many thanks! 👍

[young dock]

Is there a fix for broken army medkit in CoC (1.4.22 + Smurth's Dynamic HUD)? Only if I disable the animations, the medkit works properly. Otherwise, it only gives me around 1/20 health

There is no such problem with the other two medkits

[young dock]

Problem fixed

[upbeat vapor]

Which one is that?

Tons of unpackers

[wild osprey]

No clue, I didn't keep the packaging so to speak.

[upbeat vapor]

Gave it a try with the Anomaly one?

You prolly used this

[wild osprey]

With Anomaly's built-in one? No but I'll go give it a go now.
And yes, I believe that was the one I tried before.

[upbeat vapor]

Try with that, also with NatVac's one too

[wild osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/owl-who-gif-12911682

[upbeat vapor]

http://www.metacognix.com/files/stlkrsoc/#SoCPUP

This

[wild osprey]

Nah, Anomaly's one just made a blank "unpacked" file and closed immediately. Makes sense cos it looks like it's all formatted differently. I'll give that one you linked a go now. 👍

[upbeat vapor]

I have unpacked OLR's dbs few months ago

Dunno what I used

[wild osprey]

Yeah okay so reading this and seeing it talking about Powershell suggests it'd be best if I leave this until tomorrow. 😅
Thanks though! I'll DM you at some point about it.

[upbeat vapor]

Just do a bat file containing

SoCPUP.exe -unpack .db name here -2947ww

[wild osprey]

AH no it uses the RU file format. -2947ru gets it working. Shame I've gotta do it manually for 20 damn files but hey-ho! 😅

Cheers mate!

*Stops working as soon as I say "thank you"* 🙃

[upbeat vapor]

I was close, heh

[true jewel]

can someone tell me all the stuff that i can get from nimble in Gunslinger?

i got a lot of money

but im skeptical about ordering from nimble

since his orders are changed in gunslinger

it may say GP37 in the dialogue box

but what you get is an AS VAL that uses 5.45

[young dock]

@true jewel Since some weapons were removed, the dev had to replace those weapons by putting modded/upgraded weapons (GP37 as Ak74, Groza as AS VAL, F2000 as L85...)

F2000 as L85 is one of the best weapons by the way

[true jewel]

aight

[gentle elbow]

What's the minimum system requirements for CoC?

[inner spindle]

minimum? a potato battery

[eager tendon]

ay

[wild osprey]

Bare in mind that will mean (and should really specify) unmodded cos if there isn't an exact modded framework in place when you jump over to 1.5.1 then you're gonna get instability, crashes, or corruptions.

[eager tendon]

Yeah, I thought about that

But the most dangerous mod might be one buffing CS suits

[neon socket]

question about misery, is there a way that I can search thermal anomalies safely without saving every 5 seconds and trying to run through it as fast as possible?

outside of getting a new suit, obviously

and body coolers

[wild osprey]

Controversial, but have you tried navigating around the burn-y bits?
Can't speak for Misery, but in vanilla CoP you can just cover yourself in Fireball artifacts to reduce the thermal environmental damage long enough for you to snag whatever's in there (ironically, this is usually more Fireballs). Thermal damage in CoP is like Corrosive damage in CS; they're both designated as that particular game's suit-shredder...

[neon socket]

Thermal artefacts reduce heat damage
Step 1: Cover yourself in thermal artefacts
Step 2: Take more thermal artefacts from thermal anomalies
Step 3: Run out of space to store your artefacts

misery ramps up the thermal damage alot

so that probably won't work

also, the body coolers work on the same premise as thermal artefacts, they take a percentage of your current thermal resistance and add that new percentage to your thermal resistance, but my bodysuit has terrible thermal resistance so that won't work

[violet cave]

no way to do it outside of having antidotes while wearing a protective suit. Artifact hunting is worthless in misery and its forks, because you can only try it when you're already set up

[wild osprey]

Eh, it's pretty viable in Anomaly. Although I don't know if we'd even class that as a Misery fork by this point. 😁

[violet cave]

it's still a misery fork, yeah. But anomaly default settings are very easy, add to that the fact you can tweak a lot of stuff in just the menu, so in that case it depends the person, i guess.

[graceful basalt]

(it's still easy)

[velvet stag]

Someone knows a good coop mod for stalker?

[violet cave]

the only one out right now is xrMPE, in a defence mode. You could also try getting into the OBT program for RoH, but i'm not sure how easy that is.

[velvet stag]

[potent timber]

Hey, can anybody redcommend me a good graphics or a weapons mod for Call of Pripyat?

[graceful badge]

Assuming you've played Vanilla already, STCoP is a pretty good weapon pack

For graphics idk, Absolute Nature and Absolute Structures could work i think,

[vocal flicker]

does anyone know why COC needs COP?

I have it so it doesnt matter but im just curious

[young dock]

For the sake of stability I assume

I saw someone say that having CoP installed increases stability of CoC a lot

And I think it is a 'better than sorry' situation

[snow umbra]

You forgot a word there

[young dock]

@snow umbra I knew that, y'know

[karmic wasp]

could be any reason really

maybe the devs didnt want possible legal issues for releasing a standalone (ridiculous, but just a guess)? maybe they wanted people to have the ability to play their mod on steam? maybe it is just stability? maybe they simply didnt want a download that is too big

[young dock]

Possibilities exist

And cannot be ignored

[wild osprey]

As far as I know, it piggy-backs off the engine and uses the your CD Key certification for CoP to actually run the mod.

[graceful badge]

It doesn't need it

Friend of mine confirmed you can run CoC on a formatted drive that has never ran CoP

[violet cave]

@graceful badge

it does need it, but you can fix this by just adding -skip_reg to CoC's shortcut

[graceful badge]

O, nvm then

[violet cave]

maybe the copy Ramma got already had -skip_reg on

[graceful badge]

Probably i guess

[neon socket]

didnt the devs state that it was to honour or pay tribute to the originals?

[vocal flicker]

Thx

[neon socket]

support them, rather

[graceful basalt]

But actually it is...

[graceful basalt]

Doesn't want to load anyway.

[karmic wasp]

i dont want to look at it anyway

[graceful basalt]

Both of those mods suck anyway.

[karmic wasp]

nice bait

[graceful basalt]

Imagine playing Vasyankas and enjoying it, lmao.

[karmic wasp]

delicious, truly scrumptious bait
mmmm

what's next on the bait menu? "soc sucks"?

[graceful basalt]

Don't say that you defend Goldsphere, please. I don't want to torn apart from laughing.

[karmic wasp]

that one wasnt as good as the previous bait mr. chef
needs some more salt and heat

[graceful basalt]

How could I forget... you are one of its translator. Pathetic.

[karmic wasp]

you prepare your bait for 10 minutes and return with that? smh

try again

at least spell it right

[neon socket]

Im using owr 3 for coc 1.5 how do i silence an ak74

Help

Wait can you not silence assault rifles

What

[young dock]

[ebon tusk]

you can,never played owr but I am ure you need a modification and the right supressor

[neon socket]

there is no silencer modification

it says attachments : silencer

but the thing sold by the traders is sound suppressor

maybe i will find silencer somewhere else

[ebon tusk]

supressor=silencer@neon socket

[graceful badge]

^yeah kek, it's the same

[neon socket]

What

[graceful badge]

Suppressor is the same as a silencer

[neon socket]

Yea but sound suppressor cannot be attached to ak74

Should i just spawn in aks 74u snag

[graceful badge]

Did you try to upgrade it so you can fit a silencer into it

[neon socket]

I did

There's no upgrade

[ebon tusk]

maybe youre not using the right supressor,AK's are normally 7,61x51mm,and youre using one of those for 5,56

[graceful basalt]

??????????

[ebon tusk]

calibre

[graceful badge]

AK's in OWR3 use 5,45 iirc

[ebon tusk]

funky

[graceful badge]

And in vanilla too

[neon socket]

it's owr

[ebon tusk]

dude I never played OWR 3

[neon socket]

its pretty nice

I'm the modpack I'm using has it

When i used owr 3 in 1.4.22 aks could be silenced

Then i switched to 1.5 with a modpack

That has owr3

Ah well it is just silencer

It's ok ig

[tiny steppe]

Huh they make AKs in 7.62x51?

[ebon tusk]

I got it wrong,instead of 7.62x51 its 7.62x39

[tiny steppe]

Oh i was gonna say they really be making AKs for all the caliber fanboys now huh

Everything from 22lr to 50cal (work in progress rn)

[ebon tusk]

if you look hard enough I am sure youl find one but the ak47 uses7.62x39

[tiny steppe]

Ik

Theres enough conversion kits

762x51 bullets iirc are .308 diameter you could probably make a converstion kit from a 7.62x54r gun because those bullets are .311 (i think)

Im sure someone with nothing better to do will make one

[ebon tusk]

am sure someone with nothing better to do already made one

[tiny steppe]

Prob

Its just easier to downsize a big gun than it is to make a small gun use big bullets

Might not need to do much to make a 7.62x54r into a 7.62x51

[graceful basalt]

We have some SVD (which is technically AK) loaded in .308 Win and 6.5 calibers.

[tiny steppe]

Yesn't

[graceful basalt]

It has some changes in the mechanism, of course...

Or maybe it's just me.

[neon socket]

hey guys anyone know how to enable hud in the gunslinger mod

[graceful badge]

If you're playing on master i think Gunslinger disables the hud on purpose on that difficulty

For some reason

[neon socket]

damn

does it do it with the rest

[graceful badge]

Iirc it only disables the hud on master,

Novice, Stalker and Veteran shouldn't be affected i think

[neon socket]

ok

[crisp pulsar]

is there a way to disable the different weapon sensitivity in gunslinger

[neon socket]

What are some graphics only mods for CS?

[neon socket]

I think you could try absolute nature for cs, cs complete, and absolute structures for cs

I am not sure though

anyway

does anyone know if i can edit any files in coc so i can make warsaw pact guns able to be silenced

using ow renewal 3 for 1.5

[sonic light]

im playing with pROvAKs Anomaly pack, and i want to add the official boomsticks and sharpsticks mod to the mods. Will this break something? Also i want to learn how to add shaders to Anomaly.

yeah it does

[inner spindle]

Does anyone know how to properly install the English translation patch of Spatial Anomaly? I’ve downloaded the mod fine but the English translation hasn’t worked properly at all, I can tell it’s partially worked because the main menu and some prompts are in English, but the actual English dialogue isn’t there

[neon socket]

playing through pripyat for a second time

I got gunslinger, absolute nature, and atmosfear 3

what else should I get?

[graceful basalt]

Nothing or it will crash even more.

[neon socket]

nice.

[ebon tusk]

[neon socket]

anything that I can tweak the difficulty with?

like make it harder to get ruble

outside of misery, of course.

[graceful basalt]

The main problem of Stalker modding - modders big incompatibility. The more mods you install - the more unstable it becomes

[graceful basalt]

As I said...

[neon socket]

[neon socket]

uhhh

[neon socket]

the sky is black

in CoP

and the items don't have names

?

[young dock]

@neon socket Try reinstalling

[upbeat vapor]

Next time watch what you're installing on top of the base game

Delete the bin folder and verify cache

Also gamedata if you have one

[neon socket]

reinstalled it

but I still have one problem

the items are all like weirdly named

like the ak is called "gunslinger_ak74u.gun" or something like that

oh it's cause it's still in beta

[neon socket]

alright so

how do I enable my hud in gunslinger

oh nvm

[violet cave]

it doesn't have english localization

[neon socket]

ohh

Hello! What game were you playing and have you got any mods mate? I'm not familiar with the error myself I'm afraid, but it's a bit weird that it's telling you in the crash log to attach your crash log to the crash log.

someone in the anomaly server is helping me thanks tho

No worries mate! 👍

[dusk pollen]

It was a mod ocnflict someone over there had a patch they had made

[warm ruin]

Hello all.

We, from the C-Con discord have expanded our #stalker-news channel over to our Moddb group. It's inspired by Ap-pro's Stalker news videos, though in this case it's in a text format.
The article contains both news from western and eastern parties. The eastern ones being translated by me. Give it a read and send us feedback if you have any in the article comments.

Another one of these may be released next month, depending if we receive good feedback out of it.

Thanks for reading!

[neon socket]

alright so

if I update my gunslinger game

with the gunslinger updater.exe

will it corrupt my save file?

update: it didn't

I can now hover over a medkit without seeing "gunsl_eatable_medkit"

[young dock]

Is it possible to change/add a day theme of any map in CoP?

[graceful basalt]

You want to change the background music, right?

Music placed there
"gamedata\sounds\music"
You can change everything there. Just convert your music file to .ogg

[young dock]

@graceful basalt Thank you so much 👍🏽

[hybrid meteor]

does anyone have some good anomaly add-ons relating to more weapons, maybe more AI mechanics, more side quests, etc?

[real condor]

turn the sound on

[young dock]

[neon socket]

What are some of your opinions on the MISERY mod for COP?

[young dock]

Good hunting, stalker

[neon socket]

I'm no noob

Been playing for 3 years, best games i have ever touched

Got kind of bored recently so i am getting into the metro series

Finished Last light now doing Redux 2033 and exodus

[young dock]

@neon socket Just because you are an experienced stalker doesn't mean somebody can't say good hunting to you

Have a nice day

[graceful badge]

He prolly means the other guy

[neon socket]

^^^

[real condor]

why did u finish the sequel before the first game

or do u mean that u finished the original games and now ur playing redux

[neon socket]

Yeah i didn't know so i just played last light first

[real condor]

damn

that must suck

at least u know that the watch displays your visibility

2033 doesn't tell u that

[neon socket]

Yeah

I actually played and finished Clear sky before COP and SOC

[real condor]

must've been weird

[hallow cedar]

is there any good light armor in anomaly

[proven fox]

is there any ppl here who might give me a hint why a certain crash in Anomaly happens? I know I would probably ask this on their discord but I don't think the community there cares much

already formatted my pc some weeks ago. The machine is fresh. Recent AMD drivers. Been like this ages ago. Sometimes I can do a full day playtime it never crashes. Today it's getting on my nerves

no. it's win 10

1909

[violet cave]

@proven fox it's an issue with amd gpus, i guess you could try lowering settings or smth.

By the way, they're always helping anyone they can in their discord, they might even know of a better solution or have a patch. You should ask there

[proven fox]

well yes, by looking at error I already assumed it was something with the DX10/11 options. By switching to DX9 the problem is gone but game looks so much more alive with the DX10 options or above. I will probably ask there at some point again. I kinda lost the interest in speaking there when I was ignored by the third time.

[hazy kelp]

man really said windows 7 or xp looks like windows 2000

[neon socket]

hey is the gunslinger mod compatible with other mods?

[real condor]

what other mods

specify

[neon socket]

uh

just, at all

is it just the ones in the updater?

Eh, nevermind

[violet cave]

no, there's only a handful of mods compatible with Gunslinger @neon socket

[true jewel]

the community there dont care much

ngl its the most responsive mod focused community ive ever been on

[proven fox]

perhaps. Not gonna argue with that. I just didn't found it very welcoming. Alas, could be just the people there atm, so I assume It isn't fair to criticize an entire community based on a pocket full of people. After making 3 different questions on 3 different channels of 3 different topics and having 0 replies just felt I was saying some barbaric nonsense.

[violet cave]

@proven fox yeah that happens. Don't take it personal though, they just don't answer what they don't know how to fix

[upbeat vapor]

Outdated, too much survival, odd at moments

No matter how much hate people spill towards Anomaly, it remains the most polished modification

Doubt that'll change soon

Still fork of Misery and CoP, but very well made

[graceful basalt]

Anomaly? The most polished? Maybe you mean the most Polish modification

[upbeat vapor]

Yeah, have you seen unfinished stuff or half-made stuff in the game?

Just by looking at the menu, you'll get the point

Dunno

I don't play much mods cause they all do the same

[graceful basalt]

Unpolished things like main quests, partners' AI, optimization, f.e.

[upbeat vapor]

Followers AI wasn't even in the base game

Can't complain about that

Optimization - never had issues with that. Main quests - don't remember any problems I encountered

Still far better than Goldsphere, lol

[graceful basalt]

They are dumber than average NPCs in general. Can't notice that they get shoot several times.
Faction War is the most unstable one. Many NPCs - your PC lags as hell.

[graceful basalt]

Agree. Anything is better than that mod

[versed hill]

Hey i have a question about road to the north

Where do i find documents in x8

[lost abyss]

Hey guys is there any mods i should add to COP other then gunslinger?

[neon socket]

i need a good schizo deep secret government lore mods

russian sleep experiment tier

looking to get spooked

[violet cave]

read Pitfalls in folklore entries

nvm, my brain ignored the word mod for some reason

well, Lost Alpha 1.3 got that illuminati stuff

Zaurus Crew mods are crazy like that too

some vivient team mods are going there as well

[neon socket]

ooo sick

the most schizo ones are without a doubt reborn mods

source, another way and doppelgsnger

source actually just got a hand translation

[neon socket]

yeah i got cooked and started reading the design documents

the old stories got me hyped for trying weird mods

[violet cave]

if you want a recreation of desdocs try Oblivion Lost Remake

[neon socket]

is there any of anarchy cell?

[violet cave]

or Vector of Alienation for better direction, writing and translation

there is an anarchy cell mod, but has nothing to do with the desdocs

[neon socket]

aww

that noosphere becoming self aware sounded so sick

[neon socket]

you in the x18 right? if so you need to find the code to open the door

[paper galleon]

can be pretty easy to miss

[neon socket]

No one has bothered to recreate Anarchy cell since it was only a concept desdoc with text and we dont have any builds of AC

Unlike with Oblivion Lost, where there are tons of builds and desdocs, which allowed for very precise recreation

Except Lost Alpha

Or Oblivion Lost mod

Those went in like

WEW directions

LA perfectly recreated SOME of the old stuff

And then just messed up everything else

I think the game is really good without the skills module and the stupid illuminati questline

But without the questline.. It feels bland

[neon socket]

how do i install mod for stalker soc

[real condor]

if mod doesn't come with installer

put files into a 'gamedata' folder in the game folder

[neon socket]

thats how you do it in cop

theres no gamedata folder in my soc

[real condor]

then make one

[neon socket]

ok

[real condor]

i said 'a' instead of 'the' because i wasn't sure if there was one by default

the mods make one automatically

[neon socket]

ok

so make gamedata folder

and put mods there

got it

[violet cave]

same way you install mods in CoP

don't just make a gamedata folder and drop a .rar file or smth there lol

[neon socket]

ye ye ik that

[violet plinth]

Hey guys

Is Call of Chernobyl supposed to be Shadows of Chernobyl but in Call of Pripyat?

Does it also include Clear Skies?

[snow umbra]

No

It's a freeplay mod, not really like the games

[violet plinth]

Then why is it called Call of Chernobyl

[snow umbra]

Because it combines the maps from the games

[violet plinth]

Wow

Literally wasting my time downloading it

[snow umbra]

Yep

Vanilla games are far better

[real condor]

i play it sometimes because you get to choose factions

[neon socket]

coc is really good when you just want to shoot, gain reputation, buy guns, do quests, help your fraction and all that stuff

[graceful basalt]

CoP is better at that point.

[real condor]

yea i mean it has similar features

[neon socket]

you can play coc endlessly and in vanilla games you have story and story ends after like 40 hours

[graceful basalt]

You can play vanilla games endlessly too researching the locations, listening to NPCs stories, anecdotes, doing sidequests, looking for artifacts, collecting money.

It's also interesting to dig into the game's files.

[violet plinth]

Is there a mod that fixes damage in SoC?

[real condor]

master difficulty

[graceful badge]

Difficulty does not affect the damage you make

And in SoC almost everyone dies of 1 headshot, so just good aim

[real condor]

it does

at least in soc

[snow umbra]

No

It's a myth, quit spreading it
