I wonder what might be causing my game to crash when i try to stab a stalker with a knife's heavy attack

#

good day stalkers, i just thought of something, is there a way or a mod that exists to make stalker gamma or at least anomaly multiplayer? I imagine youd need servers or a 3rd party server host but I figured id ask if theres one that exists?

dawn martenBOT
twin timber
#

It's a cool idea in concept, but an absolute nightmare in practice

#

Not to mention the terrible reputation that "multiplayer" mods for stalker have acquired along the years

chrome bluff
#

ah thats sad, would be cool if it were to happed. im sure its possible for a tech asvvy guy to get a LAN server running for MP but integrating it story wise would probably be a challenge (and the engine might freak the fuck out)

twin timber
#

But to summarize it, no. and if someone says anything about a MP mod, you can assume it's either a scam or they're making fun of you

#

This engine is barely holding itself together with spit and duct tape

chrome bluff
#

I was about to say i thought i saw a MP mod for stalker but it was a stalker mod pack for DayZ

theres no tape, nothing at all, just slavic wizardry, and its all cast while drunk, so its quite wonky

Hey guys does this mod pack improves a life? Because (maybe because I didn't left the game run that long)

Totally hypothetical

Can i farm a nosorog off the dooty guy in the front of rostok

livid niche
#

if not odds are it will probably be despawned out of the inventory even if it drops

celest zinc
#

16 lol

#

Is the lvl for exos lower ive found like 2 of those including the spartan helmet but that might not be on the same level

#

So i guess once i get to 17 itll be possible thanks for the answer

livid niche
#

im not exactly sure the exact lvls for exos but nosorgs usually are 17

sick yoke
#

Exos aren’t scav blocked

#

!scavenging

dawn martenBOT
#

If your Scavenging skill level is too low, items have a chance to despawn from the bodies you loot:

  • Nosorog exoskeletons (85%)
  • Cz-M10 Spartan helmets (50%)
  • other items except weapons and armor (0.25-4%)
    To avoid the despawn your Scavenging skill has to be level 17 or higher.

Additionally, in order to loot an outfit or a helmet from a body a certain rank value is required. The requirement is almost negligible, rank value as small as 7000 is enough to meet a rank requirement for any equipment.

How can I repair the existing barrel on my gun without finding a new barrel that is 60% or more healthy, repairing it, and replacing the old one?

I'm starting a new game as ISG, what's the UDP-9 suppressor? Gemtech?

One corresponding to the class of your gun, probably B. And then rightclick the gun "maintain parts" -> "clean barrel" or something like that, don't know the exact wording

You guys know what would be kinda cool?

#

Upgradeable night vision, just like the rest of the gear

#

with stuff like heat vision, much like binoculars and an anomaly detection display

#

one would think that since you're in the zone and doing stuff at night someone at some point would come up with tech that blends an anomaly detector with night vision considering night vision makes it practically impossible to see them

#

And grok already added a threat detection upgrade to the binoculars which is probably one of my favorite things in the game rn

@iron atlas You'll need to enable debug mode first: #╭📖faq message

1. Press Numpad 0, this will put you in noclip mode.
If you don't have a numpad, open the console with ~, type demo_record 1 into the console and hit Enter
2. Move around with WASD and go forward and backward with left click and right click
3. Press Enter to "land"

I don’t think we even acknowledged the existence of that system in testers KekSkew

Its yet another “oh just modded exes” thing

Most likely its left as is until it gets worked on, improved etc etc

Or… because we don’t want it

can anyone tell me the name of mod that lets u see what loot are in the ground?

#

thus the thing you noticed

#

if you let bullets go where the barrel is pointing then nothing will go towards your crosshair

#

as nothing is designed to be aligned with it

#

there's like 3 weapons that are actually aligned

#

that i saw last time i played

#

if you actually need to see the tracer "work as it should" then just allow the mechanic to spawn the bullet from the barrel

#

but not aimed from the barrel

0.9.1

#

wtf, stalker 2 is so spongy compared to this :/

#

alright alright fine, grok had a point continuing his work on gamma. It just saddens me that stalker 2 is not seen to be worth significant mod development. particularly now that modding tools are out (? right?)

vernal horizon
#

This is reminding me how fucking wild of a crazy time for stalker it was when alundaio was the king of the modding space for a short time

It’s not worth significant mod development because they can’t do significant mod development yet

i finished stalker 2 super early when it was just released. so with all the bugs and bullshit. I never expected s2 to be as "free" as anomaly or any of the modpacks for it....but i was still very disappointed in it. it wasnt a stalker game, the new factions and what not didnt feel revelant and i couldnt tell the difference between loners and bandits. just pointing out some of the lesser known problems with it. in the end...it was very impactful for me to finish the game because ..i was waiting for it for like....10 years? but it felt like some knockoff far cry game and not like stalker. so not really touching it again, gamma it is

is there a way to downgrade stalker 2 to unreal engine 4, so the game could run better? KekSkew

think it was the medic really, id get like 25-30k after running something like radar, or more on top of the reward/gear/ammo ect. I also think he nerfed attachment drops cause my current run is dry af on attachments and ive killed 300 stalkers

#

gun and armor luck has been based tho

#

experts on my first north yellow

#

maybe 2nd?

blissful ivy
#

i mean thats all nice

#

but im just sayin

#

i live off my mechanic sales

#

ofc i could do fine with traders

#

but i like mechanic sales

#

(you can just revert the change if you want tho tbh)

timid hornet
#

I mean to be fair I have my stalker and mutant ratio at 1 so

#

idk

#

if your good at the game it just means you farm more

#

Im also doing a .45hp only no 12 gauge and maybe like 5% ksg in my run as mutant gun

#

I gotta say UMP45 is an absolute chimera/psuedogiant destroyer

#

but im constantly in debt cause of ammo

BREAKING NEWS: Local man discovers the power of .45 Hydra-Shock

timid hornet
#

well to be fair the rebalance made it expensive AF

blissful ivy
#

nothing new under the sun

#

bah just craft it

#

still cheap

timid hornet
#

I dont think you understand, 1 ratio on zcp mutants mean my average chimera spawn is like 2-3 chimeras, and maybe a psuedogiant plus other mutants and stalkers by the time I hit outskirts

#

I did a package delivery in outskirts, 2 chimeras, monolith and sin

#

plus lurkers and light mutants

#

1 mutant 1 stalker on zcp increases the spawn rate signifigantly over vanilla

#

ive fallen in love with the M98B again

#

holy shit i forgot how good it sounds

timid hornet
blissful ivy
#

fuckin just BAM and a mf drops

proven raptor
#

grok's idea of making the north hard is spamming mutants

#

chimeras and controllers specifically

timid hornet
#

was that on vanilla settings?

#

got to be honest mutant spawn has felt like shit on vanilla for a while

#

I up my ratio for a reason, stalkers included

#

*oh man 2 chimeras and a psuedogiant at radar so hard" granted this is on 1 1 settings and it feels like zcp has been adjusted

#

to be fair in my current run, isg and mercs tried to assault radar and killed like 12 monolith guards

#

so my radar run was quite ez

#

minus a psy storm

#

I remember on previous ZCP 1 1 settings or close to that, the elevator in miracle machine had 2 psysuckers 3 snorks 5-6 zombies, and 3 controllers

#

you run the ladders and die instantly to triple controller

#

I made it to the bathroom at the bottom like maybe 1 out of 100 tries

#

and then forgot to quick save or had no daddy save

im the biggest scumbag in stalker ever. took a quest from mercs in dark valley to kill local military squad. i run to them and find a loner really close to the military. i kill the loner and the military notices that and is running after me. i run back to the mercs and more or less watch how the military guys arrive and start fighting with the mercs. one merc survives and wins the fight. the one who gave me that quest. meanwhile i loot his friends right in front of him and then go to him and be like "yo, i killed the soldiers you wanted, how about my payment?"
