Is Call of Chernobyl any good?

if you're a guy who likes to do quests it might be a little lacking but it has the entire zone to explore so if that is your thing go ahead
COC crashes on startup for me. All I did was run Cocdater. What gives?
Is there a mod for SOC that lets you put a scope/silencer on the Tunder S14?
>>150688749
did you run the updater in your main CoC installation folder
>>150687848
>adjustable sight
Which mod(s)?
Yo is it just me or does no one play guitar in Call of Chernobyl??
How does LURK compare to the other mods for SoC? I've only ever played SoC with LURK and loved it, but now I'm curious to try it with some other mods. What do you think would be best for someone who really likes LURK?
Thinking about giving Zone of Alienation a try...
>>150676321
Looks like the other one died instead... well, shit,
>>150626962
Well, how about you mimic how exposure to radiation would work in real life? You don't receive damage, but rather, suffer long-term consequences (decrease in carry weight and stamina recovery, slightly decreased movement speed to simulate overall weakness, less effective hunger reduction from consuming food to simulate problems with digestion, faster dehidration to simulate diarhea and vomiting without actually having player to perform any of those things, visual ques for nausea) depending on the amount you've been exposed to, up to slow death in a couple of days if not treated properly. Make it so you can only slightly relieve the symptoms using certain medications available to player, but to get rid of sickness completely you have to visit hubs with proper facilities available in them.
Just remember to balance it properly.
>>150695204
think you're right. ive heard the harmonica in rostok but thats about it
:^)
EVERYONE POST YOUR STALKAN LOADOUTS
>>150697949
Anyone of where to increase the chance of playing songs? I heard harmonica in Swamp once, but that's it.
Even in Vanilla CoP I remember I never heard guitar.
>>150700187
>>150700712
There's 2-3 spots in Misery CoP(Don't know if this applies to vanilla) Where I've heard guitars and they're all in Jupiter. 1 is the duty side of the station, a guy plays guitar sometimes on bunk bed. The 2nd one is the campfire near the research bunker. And the third one, which I'm not so sure about is the Freedom side, the guy that usually sits next to Uncle Yar.
I think the main reason for this is that CoP has a lot less loner campfires or loner camps in general in comparison to the other games, there's a lot more hostile locations for sure.
>>150697337
I've never liked the idea of 'permanent' radiation exposure in Stalker. It's like Lost Planet, where you're ultimately just fighting the clock. I do really like the more sophisticated effects, though. A well,-implemented radiation system (or damage/effects of all types) would be just as good as a well-implemented weapons, armor, or items addon imo.
OK guys just a heads up
i spent the last half hour -45 minutes troubleshooting why OBS wouldnt for the love of FUCK ... capture clear sky in game capture mode.
turns out it was caused by
""Reminder that MS Update KB2670838 breaks your DX10/11 games including Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat. Here's a fix:

in the OP
as soon as i deleted those 3 dll's (I accidentally left them in my bin folder when troubleshooting dx10 issue)
but as soon as i deleted those, restarted game + obs and tried to hook the game in OBS, bam, worked no problem.

how to disable hit markers in Shoker mod?
I finished entire trilogy on Master and want to replay Call of Pripyat with some spicy mods. What do you recommend for first modded playthrough? I was thinking about some weapon mod and something, that will tweak game a little bit. Any recommendations?
>>150720385
TAZ, OWR, Shoker
>>150720385
Maybe Shoker or Misery?
>>150674612
So which is better for CoP, Atmosfear or vanilla weather effects? I tried to look for a comparison but didn't really find a good one.
>>150721950
SWTC. AF has amazing blowouts tho.
Did anything happen with that Wormfood update?

AMK 1.4 or OL 3.1?
I've never tried AMK, only played a few mods for ShoC.
So, I'm wondering, which mod (or any other one) do you recommend for the old build feeling (can't install OGSE because I only have 3GB of RAM)?
>>150723245
>I've never tried AMK
What the fuck, negr? Get on it right now.
>>150723338
Well, IIRC I only played OL 2.2, which back then I read it was an AMK variant so I guessed AMK was more old.
Does it have chimeras and burers, shit like that?
>>150723464
Yes, it does. AMK is literally the mother of all mods.
>>150723528
Great, thanks m80.
I always preferred vanilla ShoC for some reason.
>>150722841
After shutting down the last lab and reviewing the investigation I decided the zone was in violation of a number of laws.
So I decided to shut down the whole zone and retire to Croatia and hunt gypsies instead.

Coming back home from a trip to Zaton.
Has anything really amazing been made for/added to CoC in the last 6 months?
>>150733934
Nothing absolutely mindblowing comes to mind, mostly just a shitload of quality of life improvements.
1.4 official is going to be the first major milestone in awhile, the changelog so far is a mile long and all the weapon packs are being carefully rebalanced and merged into the so-called "AO3E" pack by the CoC team themselves.

I hate the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series for thinking that the brain scorcher could ever be the fucking duga radar.
>>150735617
Why?
>>150735617
Duga did appear as a separate radar in Limansk.
>>150735617
So I played some CoCk and I noticed that stalkers don't swear at me often, bandits don't also don't say cheeki breeki that often too. So I loaded ShoC to see if they were like this, I fought some bandits and realized I was not wrong, they often swear at me (they not only say cheeki breeki often but they say Ukrainian shit at me like papali cyka).
Strange that I tried CS, and it was the same, then I loaded CoP and heard only one cheeki breeki but no swear, so I don't know what the fuck.
Might be that CoC uses settings from CoP? If so, where I can modify this, to make them stalkers more talkative?
Also sorry If I'm wrong, I'm didn't slept well so it might be that.
That's the brain scorcher, aka one of the duga radars according to the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. It would not have the power required to transmit as far as the duga radar did in ending 1970s. Each one of those would need 2,5 MW to be a duga radar, not only that but those are omni rather then directional and would require even more than 2,5 MW. Not possible.
>>150736673
Shit, I wrote like a retard.
I need to sleep, fuck.
>>150735617
As >wikipedia claims, there were rumors about the Duga radar being a mind control device.
Besides, noosphere and radiation being a magic juice of this setting can make it believable.
>>150737408
How convenient that the noosphere exists, we can just say that whenever someone questions something stupid about the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe. It's not like it would've been a problem making the so called brain scorcher bigger, it would've barely have impacted the performance at all.
what mid-range weapons are you pros using? got the AK-107 since it looked nice with the black dye and can have a scope attached, since im a coward
>>150737916
AK-105*
Which one should i buy first? I only have money for one right now. I hear Shadow is the first in the series so should i go with that one? Which one has the best mods?
>>150739065
Kill yourself then read the OP
>>150700187

Anyone know if the new patch is any good? I played one of the later patches but the gunplay was crap.
Also they're making a whole new mod called OGSR, apparently.
>>150747637
I was carrying a 2kg garbage bag suit around but I'm done hunting artifacts for the moment.
>>150747775
they didn't touch guns in this
also there will be a patch for the patch "soon"

Looked through the changelog and all i saw on guns was some new pistol animations and a few balance changes.
>>150747775

One of most stalker mods greatest economic fuckups is that looting and repairing weapons off dead stalkers is 10x more fruitful than artifact finding.
i know this is the meme question, but is there any way legitimate or otherwise to make a faction not hate you?I shot Beard's artifact team for their anomaly detector and thought i got away with it. I didn't.
I'm playing Misery too, so maybe that's a no.

Now weapons with more than a certain ammo count can show as a number instead to avoid taking too much space. And you can just make all weapons use the number if you don't like the radial display because you're a boring and heartless excuse for a human being.

"I still haven't given the VoW merge a shot but if the merger(s) didn't screw something up real bad then you can still disable the hit markers just like in the plain, unadulterated SWM 2.1. Hit "u", that'll bring up the console, and then ask for the list of available commands (there are two commands for that but they should be given to you right away, "list" and "help" IIRC). The command for disabling/enabling the hit markers is quite obvious, something like "hud.xmarks", so you'll have to type in, say, "hud.xmarks = 0" which will disable them."

I'm playing SoC with the AMK mod, am just dicking around in the 100 Rads area, and every so often Freedomers will come and attack, DUTY ends up killing them, biding a few losses or so. Something I've noticed though, or lacked noticing is that there doesn't seem to be a respawning of DUTY guards.
Does this mean, that given enough time, Freedom could attack and essentially "take over" the 100 RADS area? I don't think the game is designed for that, any ideas, has anyone seen this actually occur?

They retail for all of 2000 and change at most shopkeepers with a 30% chance or so to appear, and have 3 charges.
Lets say you pick up 2 50% durability SVDs off some milfags; you use two charges to get one SVD to 80%, and sell it for about 10k. Then you buy another kit, and fix up the other one to 80% and sell it as well.
You now have made a profit of around 15-16k and have 2 charges left on your toolkit to fix up the next expensive broken gun that comes into your possession. Things like PKMs or AS VALs will net you even more profit for the same cost.

Using first aid kits without context is just as casual as using save states without context. Tension is ruined if you know that dying only means you go back a couple (if even that) of kilometres. Similarly, that you can take those extra hits out of cover, knowing all you have to do is spam that hotkey.
It's baffling that they didn't think to enhance the survival aspect at all over the trilogy.

>>150792241
>heal over time kits completely solves that
It merely mitigates the casualness to a degree that could instead be accounted for by body armour (the ability to survive in a prolonged challenge/exploration despite accumulating damage). The med kits really only make sense as something below that level, so only something which could be used at extended safe intervals. And then again, to keep up the logical of their being a useful distinction, sleep would be an even more fundamentally nourishing action but only available in completely secure zones.
So yeah, I'd prefer even the autistic choice to what seems like the childish discipline of "oh my natural instinct is to spam so the time limit can take my toys away like a parent".
>>150792940
That's what I meant with the other part sentence. Hey, maybe if we're extremely lucky, 2.2 actually make it bearable instead of only tacking on features.
>>150793413
I can personally vouch for the page file, set it to the recommended size. I had weird bugs both in CoC and BF4 which were solved by making a page file.

Well thanks for the suggestions, ill try it out
>>150792710
As long as the survival elements don't impede the other elements (which they don't, and my example was even lamenting the fact that spamming allows a reduction in FPS technique) increasing their depth only improves the game, it being partly a survival game. Also be sure to note that my argument was that it improves the tension (which the game already creates through its survival leanings, among other things), not realism for realism's sake. My concern is where medkits become out of proportion, both in the quantity you go through, and through its qualitative effect on accelerating the pace of the game at the expense of technique and tension.
>>150793413

What's the best mod for organic difficulty (one of the LURK versions I tried had insane artificial difficulty, in that enemies could see for fucking miles in the pitch black night) and random interesting occurrences (again not going to the extreme of it just being crazy shit everywhere, intense things should be rarer but not impossible, mediocre occurrences should be stabilising but not boring)?
>>150794332
>organic difficulty
>artificial difficulty
"Fuck off"
>>150794068
>increasing their depth only improves the game
It doesn't. I just slows it down.
You want a taste of it? Go install Call of Changes. All you'll be doing is either finding yourself dying from bleedouts in a fight or running away while your medkits are applied, rendered defenseless.
Everything in Stalker rushes you if you try to get away, and for a very good reason. If you're hiding, you're either reloading or healing yourself. That means you're vunerable and your enemies WILL hunt you down.
It's not an improvement. If it were, there'd be many mods with that kind of feature. Excessive survival mechanics and STALKER do no mix.
t. played plenty of survivalshit and STALKER
>>150794073
Not that I remember, I had stuttering fairly often with atmosfear but not crashing like this.
>>150794397
In case my definitions were too unclear for you, I take artificial difficulty to mean cases where the difficulty doesn't make sense within the logic of the game's world, nevermind the sense of justice ('I should be able to beat this part within a week') of the player. Organic difficulty is almost entirely down to the latter, it has to be challenging that interest is maintained but not completely insensitive to the players' sense of what is fair, otherwise they'd all give up.
Anyone here know have a fix for when you update your OS and your saved games wont load?
>>150794068
As for the abundance of medkits issue, just don't hoard all of them. It's normal for everyone to have at least some kind of first aid on them in the Zone. Nobody wants to die.
>>150794795

>>150794603
>It doesn't. I just slows it down.
Slowness isn't inherently bad if the quality improves at the same time. That would be a failing by the player instead. Of course I'm willing to concede that it might be beyond the devs to increase survival depth without increasing both boredom and slowness but you seem to assume that is the only possible outcome.
>All you'll be doing is either finding yourself dying from bleedouts in a fight or running away while your medkits are applied, rendered defenseless
But in stalker the armour serves this very purpose in the later game, to prolong your ability to stay in the adventure despite the most powerful shit being flung in your face. The armour is the logical explanation to enable "sponge" FPS episodes within the game. With that taken care of, the medkit provides a totally different experience (or more accurately, the potential for that), the experience of dependence on survival tools that require space and time to use when you are in a vulnerable position (either early game, facing opponents far beyond your current "level", when your armour is badly damaged, etc).
>Everything in Stalker rushes you if you try to get away, and for a very good reason. If you're hiding, you're either reloading or healing yourself. That means you're vunerable and your enemies WILL hunt you down.
Again, on the lowest level hiding is merely taking cover, basic FPS strategy. On a deeper level it could be merely a psychological breather for the player before resuming. More, the necessity of reloading. Medkits could be even longer in duration and disarmament than these, and thus a bigger sense of panic resulting. If you just hotkey it and then know it will eventually kick in and you have to be a bit wary until it does, that's less intense. The same effect could almost be replicated by the main reload being longer under pressure, and the wariness is instead the necessity of using the secondary until the chance to switch back kicks in.
>>150795698
open fsgame.ltx in your install directory
it should say
$app_data_root$ = true | false | WHEREVER YOUR SHIT IS SUPPOSED TO BE
then adjust accordingly.
x-ray NPCs depend on lighting for visual sight, right? Couldn't a mod replicate the the shadow-and-light naivety of Splinter Cell or Thief NPCs by exaggerating the numbers?
>>150796880
Every mod I have ever played NPCs can either see in the dark or are blind as shit (LURK lmao).
Presumably if it was doable in a way that didn't suck ass it would have been done.
Stealth is still a good idea, losing line of sight and flanking people or moving quietly to avoid aggro works fine even in vanilla, just don't expect to epically takedown every enemy from behind or walk in front of someone and not get spotted.

Yeah, and unless the CoC guys want to code in a nightvision function for NPCs at some point, if you dick with the illumination variable in m_stalker, you're either going to make master stalkers in exos blind as shit at night, or give every two-bit rookie the ability to see at night like its noon.
>>150799162
You just interrupted Le-Strass' kill streak with that shitty bait. Way to go...
ZoA's literally just a western spin on AMK, attempt to make it easier to get into and running on later patches than the original, with tons of extra shit added to the game just for the heck of it. It's never been too stable, and I find its balance fucked up in numerous ways.
All the good things you may find in it, AMK already did a decade ago. Heck, the first time I modded STALKER it was with the Oblivion Lost 2, which itself is a literal AMK1.4 ripoff, and it pretty much did what ZoA has, but already in 2008. I always considered that too to have bit too much shit and silly changes, which I manually tried to tone down for quite some time. It wasn't until a whole year later that I gave AMK a spin, and realized that it was everything I'd loved about OL, without any of the cancer.

Only relevant to 1.3.2. Check m_stalker.ltx, and bump up transparency_threshold up to 0.5 or so. Might also want to increase luminosity_factor up to 0.9 (you will be a lot easier to spot during the day, and harder during the night times).

If you want to go artifact hunting (which I don't know why you would as sniper) go with the SEVA, now as for the CS-3a or Beryl I'm not so sure because I've always stuck for lighter suits, especially on sniper and recon.

I dislike the bullet weight from a gameplay perspective because it means I can barely carry enough ammo with me. That would be fine if I could at least loot a good amount of ammo, LURK did something similar, but since I can only loot small amounts I'm going to run out of ammo quickly.

just heads up, sometimes if you are taking items out of a stash and the contents of said stash contains an outfit, and you are currently using an outfit with nightvision activated.....
sometimes your game will crash. workaround is to turn off NV when taking said suit stash.
this shit happened to me at least 2-3 times.
i think it has something to do with the game turning off your NV when taking any suit. no idea how to change that.
talking to nimble before finishing off the bandits crashed my game on VANILLA 1.0006
>>150840594
Caps lock to run. Z to toggle crouch.
It's a shame there is no standalone version of STCOP that doesn't require COC I don't want old levels that's what the old fucking games are for I just want new guns.

Aiming sucks with a controller. Leaning is important in these games, much nicer with a keyboard.
The games are much harder with a controller, in an unfun way
>Which game version/patch Steam uses?

lol how old is that pastebin. plus there's tons of irrelevant shit in it.
someone should redo it and be much more minimal. who cares about all the random niche mods.

AMK: organic difficulty and tasteful alterations of the vanilla experience
Misery: artificial difficulty and modding overdose
Misery is truly the LURK of CoP
started playing OGSE.
Lukewarm feelings after there was a near invincible superbossman at car park and there's no info anywhere on how to get the car in cordon running for the artifacts for arms quest.
Can't open the trunk at all.
Anyone know how to fix it and complete the quest or should I just murder every single armyman
>>150847863
What is the AMK of CoP?
>>150847863
I liked misery after I went in and tweaked costs and repair values.
Only artificial difficulty is that a dirty sock that repairs 0.3% of a weapon costs 150,000 rubles and you get 12 rubles for selling a pristine condition of special named powerarmor.
Whenever I play misery I fix the economy and make it realistic. That makes it a lot more fun.
Does anyone else have a kind of Stockholm Syndrome in that they started with one game (usually SOC) and then went through mods after completing it, and now feel totally helpless about the prospect of having to learn a new story, gameplay, mods, issues by buying one of the other games? I'm afraid of the experience being lesser just because I've finely tuned the game I'm already used to. Also for SOC in particular, people so often make it sound like the other games have less inspired settings.
Or is that just me?
>>150848304
Bet you're not even playing the latest version. You can simply talk to the bandit if you choose the pacifist route and you won't have to deal with their shit. Get some fuel for the car, there's some at the elevator and the car park, the trunk is opened with the key you set it to in the options.
>>150848320
There's no AMK equivalent for CoP.
>>150836924
Mercenaries start off in a pretty awkward place with very few reinforcements elsewhere, but at least they aren't in the middle of nowhere like Clear Sky with even less presence. Monolith is probably the worst though because of all the large, hostile mutants that spawn in Pripyat.

Tried every single option. All led to combat. He didn't believe the note. Gave up and killed them all and sold all their shit.
>Get some fuel for the car, there's some at the elevator and the car park,
found both cans, no idea how to pour them in.
>the trunk is opened with the key you set it to in the options.
Only key I can use is "use antirad" and that just opens up a quick use menu, no matter where around the car I stand.
Changed the key and that now does a whole lotta nothing.
To be fair I installed it when 1.0 was released
>>150848923
What the fuck do you mean 1.0, there's 10.1 already, you won't even be able to progress in the garbage on the first ogse version. There is one way to talk to the bandit, he has to not believe your note and then you confess you're a stalker, then he gives you a mission or something and you can take nimble for free. You pour the gas with some hotkey too I bet stop being fucking retarded and find out yourself, worked fine for me.
I fucking hate Limansk.

Easy to see how it went wrong seeing as the entire thread is filled with shitposting and "my mod is better śtop liking what I don't like"
I love stalker more than most people claim to but honestly seeing how bad this shit has gotten stalker deserves to die before it turns into another purist game that has overstayed its welcome and is filled with tryhard autists who shitpost on everyone who has an opinion

>>150849807
Not him but misery is best COP mod as you change some values around to unfuck the economy.

People like these never actually played misery. They're still stuck in the 2.0 hype phase and are too afraid of having their illusion broken.

So I feel like doing my annual stalker playthrough.
What mods are everyone playing now? CoC?
>>150854762
Why should I need to aim for the head when their body is just as unprotected? It would limit the tension and options if I only waited for HS opportunities instead of going for lucky shots.

>what is reading comprehension
>>150854968
It is difficult to hit the body bone from the front, since you usually hit the arms instead. If you hit them somewhere else by reflex, their silly flinch animation will cause any hits to the same bone (that triggered it) to be ignored, so you can (and should) easily score headshots during said animation after a bit of practice.
>>150855521
so for npcs they get to shoot me under the rules of intuitive realism
meanwhile i had to first body shot them, to lower their force field, then line up my gun for the head? sounds like i'm playing a fantasy game kek.
think i'll just install AMK.
>>150855757
isn't there an AMK ballistics mod in the repo?
>>150855757
If you shoot him in the arm and this shot starts the animation, any other damage dealt to that same arm (bone) will be ignored. This is how the engine works, not the mod. Always aim for the head, is what I wanted to say in the previous post. The animation simply makes headshots super easy to achieve.
>>150855757
sounds like you're overthinking and failing at something most people do just fine. the fantasy is you.
>>150855757
Just shoot him in the head in the first place you spergasaur.
>>150856026
There is. And it's even compatible with ZRP.
>>150856040
>>150855757
And to clarify, the immunity only lasts as long as the animation.
>>150854656
Try not to get shot in the first place.
Lean from cover and aim carefully, then move to different cover before they flank you.
>>150856026
AMK is even worse though.

Quick question, does AMK have the health regeneration? And if it does, is it as quick as vanilla?
I was playing ZRP just now and totally forgot Stalker had this feature at all. I was taking on the military officers and there was just one left but the 2nd last guy had mauled me with a shotgun. My nerves were racked trying to stay quiet and get the sneak on the last guy but I kept seeing my breathing on the sound meter giving me away, it was very intense.
And then my health regenerated and I felt less like the hunted. Just wondered what mods do and don't and adjust this feature.
>>150761889
Thank you for the memories, Stalker.
>>150859581
AMK doesn't change health_restore_v, just look for yourself in gamedata/config/actor.ltx. There's a default amount of restore in the engine I think, you may have to make the value negative to offset that.
Can someone help me editing trader files for CoC?
I added this under supplies at Sidorovich, Sakharov, and the monolith trader
itm_repairkit_tier_1 = 1. 0.50
itm_repairkit_tier_2 = 1. 0.50
itm_repairkit_tier_3 = 1, 0.50
and this under sell
itm_repairkit_tier_1 = 1.3, 3
itm_repairkit_tier_2 = 1.3, 3
itm_repairkit_tier_3 = 1.3, 4
But Sidorovich still doesn't sell any of the weapon upgrade tools.
What did I do wrong?
absolute textures or photo realistic textures?

Do I still need to edit the fsgame.ltx to mod? I can't find that same line that was in the previous games' files.

What's the point of the bolt-action rifles in STCoP and AO3?
They're a lot more expensive, weigh a lot more, has slower ROF, no special accuracy compared to other snipers and does the same damage.
Why wouldn't you just get an SVD or an SVT-40 when they are better rifles by far and cost less?
>>150865915

Some design choices were completely fucking pants on head asinine and the story is bad to say the least (but then again so is CoP and SoC isn't THAT good either), so yes.
protip to misery players: even if you unfuck economy and some other things, the mod is still very buggy
>>150866554
Just some lines for cheaper repair items that repair better and make monster parts, guns and artifacts sell for more.
There, done.All in 30 minutes, Other than economony there is nothing wrong with misery.
>>150866554
IMO armor and low-tier weapons are the only thing that needs seriously redone; shit gear needs to be cheaper, endgame gear needs to be more expensive.
An exoskeleton should not be worth the same as 7 unarmored adidas jackets, nor should 4 SKS's equal the value of a customized groza.
>>150866752
Bugs are the least of misery's problems.
>>150866793
>Other than economony
>mutants and people in leather jackets shrgugging off incendiary ammo
Lol okay, have a free (you).
>>150866332
Yeah, the Mosin is the poor mans sniper-rifle, doesn't weight that much and has removable scope for close quarters to boot. How does the SV98/L96 save ammo though?
According to the description the SV98 should have a special silencer mount but it doesn't even have any silencer while the SVD does. If they had any sense they'd hack together an extra upgrade tree for them and give them the best accuracy, more reliability, best scope with dynamic zoom, maybe better handling and a slightly lighter stock. At least then you could sort of justify the price and weight of it.
>>150866679
when is it released anyway? have they given any dates?
>>150866752
not as bad as OGSE.
I've managed to get to pripyat without any serious soft locks or fucked missions.
OGSE however, you're lucky to get out of cordon without the game constantly crashing or not letting you do missions.
On my playthrough

>no dialogue to solve bandits peacefully in cordon
>in garbage all friendly stalkers that need your help have dissapeared but the radio messages are there
>can't enter agropom underground because there's no level travel zone.
OGSE is neat but if you want to hate a mod for being buggy as fuck leave misery alone and hate on some other mods.
Misery has turned into a meme. It's actually a really solid experience once you rebalance economy. By far my favorite COP mod.

>>150866934
It's bolt-action and not semi-auto, so you only get to fire once per two seconds or something along those lines. Which means you have to make your shots count, which lets you conserve ammo to the maximum.
Don't get me wrong though, this is dumb and fuddlore at best, and that's why I typed the line 'if you're a complete autist about saving ammo', and finished by saying there's not much point to using bolt-action rifles.

Misery isn't "good" if you need to change so much for it to be bearable. And after so much work, is it okay to still call it misery?
>>150867271
Let's start my with 6 attempts starting as a sniper.
Attempt 1
>The first one, I ran into the "lake" and onto the tiny land mass and was suddenly attacked by 3 boars, yet my guns couldn't kill them and they killed me.
Attempt 2
>I ran to the left seeing as the middle route didn't work, to bad after running for a few hundred meters I were suddenly attacked by 3 snorks
Attempt 3
>I ran to the right to the zombie sawmill and was attacked by a party of +6 lightning dogs
Attempt 4
>I tried the right again and was once again killed by the same pack of dogs
Attempt 5
>I tried the black road starting as a sniper and was amazed by the aim botting zombies aiming at me at all times even thought they didn't shoot most of the times. I ran and made it to skadovsk, realize I had nothing so I tried the only thing I could remember to make money without weapons was to get the documents from the bridge, but there were no documents there, suddenly I got shoot my the mercenaries in the middle of the night out on a bridge literally sneaking around. I tried running away but they shoot me to death just as I got to the ranger station
Attempt 6
>Tried playing as a recon and realize how pointless the class system is and just make the sniper class the superior one.
Also the developers are retarded for attempting to add gear roadblocks when the original developers already did that but a gazillion times better and all they did was fuck up everything.
>>150868198

ITT: oh hey shit mechanics are fine as long as you ignore them by reducing the game to headshots only
Call me casual if you want, but I think it's more casual to make the game easier by deliberately honing a technique the enemies can only use sparingly, and only for the reason that it allows you to ignore bad problems that can be fixed.
is it a good idea to install texture and weather mods on top of autumn aurora 2?
What is the best version of SGM?
>>150868410
Use the deautmnizer if anything.
>>150868410
AA2 already has texture and weather mods included.
>>150868447
Lost Soul if you like viewmodels
Enot if you want more quests
>>150868476
Deautumnizer is awful
guys how do I beat burers
>>150868447None.
>>150868180
It's still based on misery.
And the work is really very little, takes like half an hour tops to have a misery that lives up to what it was hyped up to be.
>>150868198
Idunno, I've never had any trouble with any of the starts. And since I can't stand the default bulletsponge gameplay of any mod I always grab rebalancers so nugget kills everything fine in 1-3 shots.

>Deautumnizer is awful
How?
>>150868821
It's a graphics mod
It uses shitty graphics
There are far better alternatives for summer feel
>>150868638
>And the work is really very little, takes like half an hour tops to have a misery that lives up to what it was hyped up to be.
If you use premade stuff like unfucker/les miserables/taz (they overwrite a big chunk of the mod by themselves), then perhaps you're right, it does take half an hour. Realize that you aren't "tweaking" a few tiny parts of the mod, you're overhauling an overhaul. That is the point.
>>150868981
>There are far better alternatives for summer feel
Such as?
>>150869164
4chan in summer
>>150869164
AN3
So whenever I put the files for the arsenal overhaul in my CoC gamedata my game crashes at the difficulty select screen, how did I fuck up and how can I fix it.
>>150869264
I'm pretty sure deautumnizer uses textures from AN3.
>>150864595
My biggest gripe with CoC graphics is the lighting.
>>150869435
I get blinded by the glowing roads in half of the maps.
>>150869390
It uses the defaults, which suck. Green or go.
>>150869435
>>150869583
r2_ls_bloom_treshold 1
r2_gloss_factor 0.2
I wish I knew how to make the lighting warmer tho.
Also SWTC CoC when?
>>150868562
Like this
Feels like Zaton and Jupiter are pretty empty in CoC, at least when I'm walking around the camps. The camps in other maps felt a lot more lively.
It just makes me wish there was a faster way to get around the maps, especially when the task-givers give me a mission across the zone.
>>150869760
>r2_ls_bloom_treshold 1
u wut m80
No one uses bloom.
>r2_gloss_factor 0.2
This only reduces the glow of the textures, which isn't the problem with AF3 fuckery.
>>150869435
>>150869583
You can experiment with these that actually affect the lighting.

>>150870340
I feel like a lot of the spawns and shit were tied up in CoP plot/scripting fuckery, so when those were ripped out they became ghost zones.
>>150870340
Just like in CoP without MSO :^)
Alright, I want to replay SoC. Havent played it for maybe two years. Are there any good new mods (or changes to old mods) that I should play?
>>150871009
at least there were people walking around. In CoC Zaton had like 2 guys for me, other than traders and Gonta's hunters.
Jupiter was even worse, i didn't see a single regular Stalker and the Duty commander was gone. Only the traders and the Freedom guy were there.Maybe more would've showed up if i spent more time there, but the only interesting thing was Trapper offering jobs.
I may just switch back to my Duty character and stay at Rostok and explore the surrounding maps.
>>150868562
like everything else

>>150869348
Actually, it's the same with any addons
>>150870384
>no one uses bloom
Is there even a option to disable it?
CoC had r2_ls_bloom_treshold set really low by default at some point and it made stuff like roads glow and melt your eyes.

>>150872213
Because you didn't read the fucking installer you colossal dipshit, and there is no 2.2.
>>150871641
Strange really.
I only visited Jupiter and I thought it was the usual.
Might be 1.4 fuckery?
>>150871981
Sorry I tried it and it actually changes bloom (if you set r2_ls_bloom_fast on) AND HDR so I'd experiment with it (I've tried it with a cloudy weather).
TweakGuides say
>r2_ls_bloom_threshold [0.000 - 1.000] - This setting controls the level of the lighting effect used throughout the game by default, whether or not you have the r2_ls_bloom_fast option enabled. Higher values reduce the brightness of the bloom effect used along with the HDR, such that at 1.000 the game appears similar to the DX8 lighting (but with dynamic lights).
Seems that disables HDR.
>>150872401
there's the the unnoficial patch with is pretty much 2.2
>>150872492
The unofficial patch is garbage and you would have to have legitimate brain damage to use it.
>>150871589
Complete is probably the best mod, still isn't anything that's better imo
>>150872595
Get Lost Alpha instead. It's free. Do yourself a favor and get it. Don't listen to these fucking faggot shitters. Do youself a favor and play the definitive STALKER experience. These bozos are entertained with anything. Just look at them play a fucking shitty map pack with nothing to do.
Trust me. You won't regret it.
>>150872706
Poor soul who started this pasta.
>>150872487
I only hung around for a few minutes, so maybe they needed time to spawn, idk. I'll probably hang around Zaton and Jupiter before possibly heading back to the SoC areas. I still wish there was some sort of fast travel, though.
>>150858729
make this bigger please
>>150873653
10k is the limit on 4chin
>>150871641
Yeah the CoP maps are really dead and the SoC/CS maps are a constant warzone.
>>150872487
It was set to something retarded like 0.00001 by default. Anything between 0.3 and 1 seems to look great.
https://bitbucket.org/revo_lucas/call-of-chernobyl/commits/1be541fa245f26df1c7608e014ce0bb529acaf13
Looks like it's set to 1 by default in the 1.4 beta.
I wonder if other settings are completely fucked in CoC by default. I know nothing about these. Hopefully someone who knows his shit takes a look at them.
Anyone here compared the stability of downgrading steam 1.0006 to 1.0004 and installing AMK the normal way, instead of using that "fix" patch for 1.0005?

>>150881343
>>150882767
Before Misery and LA being utterly terrible compared to their over the top hype, there was far less shitposts concerning mods. This whole kys meme is even worse than that phase where everyone was a shill.
>>150885506
Even though some people will disagree, ArsenalOverhaul is pretty OK. At least compared to vanilla. Reborn isn't even remotely similar to vanilla.
so why can no fucking gun mod (with exception for stcop or stcs) render red dots correctly and its just an ugly picture in the sight picture
>>150885949
Thanks mang. I'll give AO a looksee. Am I the only one who can't stand incorrect shit on guns? it bugs the ever living /k/ out of me.
>>150884931
I remember seeing a mod chart making a joke about Misery saying "1000 ways to die of tetanus" so i guess that's where it came from.
I'm one of those people who's in the middle on Misery, i don't consider it "the mod to save all mods" like some do, but i don't despise it. I've had my fun, after tweaking it a bit.

What mod you speak of?
Is there a mod for any of the games that adds decent content with out making enemies bullet sponges? I want to do more stalkan but am burned out with CoC at the moment.
>>150888664
Nah, i've known about TAZ and used it when i played. It definitely improves the arsenal.
The misery weapons weren't that great, even with TAZ. They're way ahead of vanilla, of course, but not much compared to something like STCoP or AO.
I just finished replaying SoC. I still want to keep on keeping on with my inner Stalker. I was wondering if there was a mod out there that had factions battleing for territory, including setting up patrols, and constantly going after eachother.
I'd love to see an all out war over the 100 Rads area between DUTY, Freedom, and even the military. I know CS has the broken system but default, but yeah. Does Faction fronts fill the bill, the Moddb page doesn't have a lot of info.
What should I change in a weapon's .ltx file to make its scope have variable zoom?
>>150890626
CoC with Warfare is the closest thing you'll find, but it's out of date while the modders all wait with clenched asses for CoC 1.4 to come out.
you know what the AI should do more often? run away, literally every fucking time a pack of dogs attacks you all you have to do is literally SPRINT, they are blind and underfed just fucking run away stop dying because you decide to do a 5v1 like a retard
>>150890896
If the AI had even half of the movement capabilities of the player the games gunfighting would be 10x more interesting in general.

I wish NPCs could sprint for situations other than blowouts, be it away from danger or otherwise. Would be neat seeing some Loner hauling ass towards you with bloodsucker on his heels, things like that.

Seeing bandits scatter in all directions is pretty interesting, especially when they go full speed straight at me
>>150892110
Oh yeah, Grenades. Grenades and Blowouts.
Did the devs disable NPCs running under all other circumstances because they were ashamed of the shoddy 3rd person sprint animation or something?

Should be next year if that interview with their CTO was anything to go by. I just hope it's open world in the sense that SoC is open world, without ubisoft busy work to fill up the maps with crap content.
I don't care if the main storyline is mostly linear along with fixed and hopefully interesting side quests just like in SoC. Just want to have explorable maps with a-life like randomness in it so it's infinitely replayable just like SoC.
>>150914041
adding more exploration but keeping the polish of the Metro series is what i'm hoping for.
I also want a better inventory system that would fit an open world game.
So i'm playing CoC and i'm currently trying to move my shit from Zaton to maps that actually have stuff going on.
Stalkers, do i become a cheating fuck and temporarily increase my carry weight, or constantly pump my veins full of hercules and make two trips back and forth through red forest?

Nope gave up after 10 attempts or so, but maybe one of the Gauss weapons will do the trick

The Zone has you now.
I've got 90k in roobulls, so I'm looking for a good weapon to buy from Nimble. Should I get the G36 or the Scar-H? I can't make up my fuckung mind help a stalker out.

The answer is AKS74U you can pick up in full condition inside vehicle station in cordon.

Oh sure, lemme just travel all the way to Red Forest to see an insane old man so I can make sure my generic gun doesn't kick me in the face every time I go to shoot.

Two-round bursts work just great on AKSU, what are you even talking about?
>>150921938

What, no, I meant manually controlling the automatic fire.

This would be great if it was calibre accurate boolit icons instead of white dots.
Anything happen in in the past 2-3 months?
