>>174298786
Keep in mind this is in accordance with the traditional DnD alignments, but here you go:

>A neutral evil character is typically selfish and has no qualms about turning on its allies-of-the-moment, and usually makes allies primarily to further their own goals.
>A neutral evil character has no compunctions about harming others to get what they want, but neither will they go out of their way to cause carnage or mayhem when they see no direct benefit for themselves.

In other words, they can be called evil because they harm others purely for their own convenience, nothing more. Thus they fit that position in the chart perfectly.

>>174304307
I did, I used the 1.0004 patch included with the mod. I draged the files and the prompt that asks me to replace the files appeared. What else could it be then?

>>174304654
dunno. if you are using steam version sometimes it can "auto update" your install. or so it's been said on here. i dunno cuz i use gog copies.

try grabbing a gog copy or a repack in the repo and use that?

>>174304653
I'll check it out. I have about 20ish seconds before I die.

>>174304806
I'm using a pirated version of course. I don't use Steam. I guess I will reinstall everything and try out regular AMK and see if at least that works

>>174305061
wait. are you installing AMK AE u linked on top of AMK? if so then thats why it's fucked up

just install soc 1.0006, downgrade to 1.0004 then AMK AE

>>174305894
Holy shit no, I'm not that retarded. I installed SoC, then installed AMK AE after using the 1.0004 patch included in the mod. What I meant in the previous post was that I'm going to reinstall the game and try out regular AMK (alone) and see if this one works

>>174306036
did you turn the game on after applying the downgrade patch to make sure it was active? i've noticed some games need to start up to apply shit sometimes.

>>174306349
No... I applied the patch and then installed the mod. Although when starting up the game it reports itself as version 1.0004 on the inferior left corner. I'm gonna try that tomorrow

Really? Well that's too bad, but how are the pirated versions better? Steam auto-updated fucks some mod compatibilities or something like that?

>>174308856
Yes auto update fucks it a lot, there is also random steam crashes and overlay problems with stability even when disabled with some mods, not to mention some mods only work on older versions.

But you should be fine playing vanilla for now, but once you want to mod, you will run into unnecessary trouble.

SoC > CoP = CS
for me
I see CS as more similar to SoC but shittier in general and with a very very bad end game.
CS somehow feels more empty even with all the patrols moving around, it feels like you are the one doing all the work, instead of being part of it like in SoC, you also never feel threatened because there is friendly fuckers everywhere and you have to go out of your way to make the entire zone hate you.

CoP is more modern and comfy but it gets just too easy and it just feels like you're at a stalker playground where nobody can get hurt because its happy hour, I really like the middle portion of it, problem is I never really feel threatened like in SoC and the labs/underground areas seem very tame in comparison with SoC, the underground road to Pripyat being good but ultimately too generic

Newfriend looking to play SoC here
I have a few hours (single digit) into it from years ago, but I can barely remember what I was doing or what mods I used

For a semi-first playthrough, should I download the 2015 Starter Pack from the OP or go with something like the newest version of STALKER Complete 2009?

>>174341963
Stay as far as you can way from COMPLETE.
Use something like ZRP instead http://www.metacognix.com/files/stlkrsoc/
and just play.

>>174341963
I'll second recommending ZRP.
If you want to go vanilla it is your best option.

If the graphics or gameplay REALLY bothers you that much and for some reason you can't push through it, then go with Complete or some other mod like it, but it won't be the same experience and it sands down certain corners that had a reason to be there in the first place.

I would probably recommend something like the 2015 starter pack over Complete though, as while I don't know what it does, I'm betting it won't mess with the atmosphere and visual style as much as Complete does.

Good hunting Stalker.

>>174342108
>>174342313
Thanks friends

ZRP is just bugfixes, right?
You wouldn't recommend getting any graphics related mods like Absolute Nature or things to improve the shooting?
I'm not sure if there is something like an HD texture pack and whatnot, I wouldn't want to completely change the original's atmosphere

afaik Starter Pack just has ZRP and a bunch of high res textures and skyboxes and so on, but I have no idea if it looks much different from the original in terms of atmosphere

I don't have much time honestly, I would probably play it like this until I reach what feels like an ending

>ZRP is just bugfixes, right?

Yes. There are some things you can pick which do possibly tweak things, but they are off by default and enabl-able via a file that's dropped in the install directory. Stuff like actual accuracy values, or an optional sleeping bag.

>You wouldn't recommend getting any graphics related mods like Absolute Nature or things to improve the shooting?

That's down to you. Honestly, I personally didn't see that much wrong with the default shooting in ShoC so long as you play on any difficulty above normal (if you didn't know, you AND the enemy die faster from bullets on higher difficulties), except for the fact that you can't kill shit that easily early on with shit gear, which is intentional.

>afaik Starter Pack just has ZRP and a bunch of high res textures and skyboxes and so on, but I have no idea if it looks much different from the original in terms of atmos
That doesn't sound that bad.

>I don't have much time honestly, I would probably play it like this until I reach what feels like an ending
Eh, just know STALKER won't hold your hand, and some sections are going to be tough or grating to get through. That's the Zone. ShoC is my second favorite game, but I didn't beat it all in one long week of playing.

Part of what draws us to the game besides the setting, the atmosphere, and the gameplay is having the challenge of survive, prospering, and finding a way to make yourself matter in a setting that cares about the player so little that it could practically run itself without the player even being there.

Just make sure you get past Cordon and Garbage. Don't be a newbie who kills the military thinking that was the direction you were supposed to go and end there.

>>174343109
Just go with ZRP. Absolute Nature is optional. Don't change anything else.

Roadside Picnic, the book STALKER is inspired from.
Granted, the differences between STALKER and Roadside Picnic are about as great as Star Wars and Star Trek.

Roadside Picnic is a bit more of a story than STALKER and the Zone is considerably scarier and more dangerous. It's straight up un-livable.

How hard is a pistol-only run for each game, assuming vanilla for all of them?

Is Call of Misery worth downloading fuckhueg installation files?
Which CoC addons work with it?

>>174354773

Seems to me a pistol-only run is "Get .45 ACP pistols ASAP so you can use .45 Hydroshok". Am I right?

>>174356667
basically everything that's just modifying sounds/models/textures

there's ao/stcop already ported for it

pretty much all the shit that changes gameplay like adding quests or something isn't going to work, but most of it's really easy to port with winmerge

>>174357397
basically. work on dem headshots until that
in soc I think you can't really get anything better than 9x19 until bar. get the morgan's big ben for memes and fun
in cs I dunno
in cop you can buy the best pistol right away from nimble for 3500
>>174356667

there's like no hydroshock available in CoP vanilla right? the only cache i know of that has hydroshock is one of strelok's stashes, and i don't recall ever being able to buy it from a vendor

Trying to play Joint Pak 2, can't get past the cave. Follow the map but there are walls where there shouldn't be, and the mutants are too many to kill and just trying to run past them is impossible. Anybody got a save file after the cave? Or knows a console command to get out of that hell?

One more question: AO or STCoP for Call of Misery?
I played AO in CoC and enjoyed it, so I would like to know what difference there is between the two.

>>174362151
ao for com fucks the balance and it's outdated
stcop is updated, balanced and has a lot more guns

>>174362151
STCoP

weapon selection is pretty much the same except for a few meme gun differences and most of them use the same models, but STCoP has much better textures and animations

also STCoP 2.9 has been ported to CoM but not CoC yet, adds some neat new shit and makes some of the sights slightly less horrible

they are still pretty horrible because its stalker but at least all the holo sights and shit actually have illumination now

Newfag from earlier here, I installed ZRP and am now playing
I still have some silly questions though

My game kind of runs bad, my computer is bretty good so I'm wondering if there might be any options I should turn on or off, there are a bunch of sliders so I'm not even sure what the Anti Aliasing is at when I slide it all the way to the right

Is there a way to have subtitles for the ambient dialogue?

In Clear Sky I don't think you can get the Limansk bridge lowered unless you use the sniper rifle they give you.

Which game in the series has the most urban setting?

is fire_distance and silencer_fire_distance the distance that the gun fires total? Might seem like a dumb question but I was looking at a mod for soc that changes the gun placement on screen and the pm has fire_distance 50 and silencer_fire_distance 100. The beretta has a fire_distance 1000. I don't comprehend.

Why can't nobody make a good A-life mod like the one in DMM-AE?

Living zone just spawns military and mercs at Duty base

In DMM-AE if a monolith got into rostok that meant that he walked from the radars,Army warehouses and finally rostok

Also Stalkers buyed things like armors and weapons since you could see a Dutyer with the avatar pic of a PSZ-5 but use a Duty Seva

>>174384091

When I first started playing SoC, I thought that the bodies you would find stuck in burning barrels was a feature, not a bug. I thought that when an NPC died, his body would get moved into a fire in order to get rid of it and provide something of a hasty funeral. I didn't realize that the NPCs were spawning in the fire and dying.

Has there ever been a good S.T.A.L.K.E.R roleplay?
/tg/'s thing died afaik, and there have been a few S.T.A.L.K.E.R roleplay servers in Garry's Mod but they always have the feel of the setting being 'STALKER-themed social chatroom' and not 'deadly anomaly filled wasteland'

>>174405738
I ran a STALKER roleplaying server that was incredibly successful back in 2007-2008 and it was loads of fun.

I got 6700k @ 4ghz, OC 480, and all the rest of the bells and whistles. I got the realistic graphics mod and all the high end mods and was hitting a constant 200fps. The thing is that the game can't handle it and you'll stutter no matter what. Turning vsync on is thw only was to prevent tearing or stutters. 60 fps might not be the best for a game like thia but it's enjoyable even in the red forest.

>>174405738
>there have been a few S.T.A.L.K.E.R roleplay servers in Garry's Mod

I remember how ghetto it was too.

You would go to the bar on the map and ask the dude for a mission and he would noclip and put an artifact in the middle of the wild territory and come back and say "Ok go get the artifact in Wild Territory".

Also there was so much de-sync on the server that killing anyone seemed impossible.

>>174409134
>60 fps might not be the best

You're spoiled.

>>174409617
Was that Taco N Banana? Those guys are faggots. on my server, I'd at least try to hide my noclip shenanigans on my server

>>174409692
Gotta admit it does suck going from 144hz to 60

Ignorance is bliss. trust me.

>>174409765
>Was that Taco N Banana?

No. I don't think they had a stalker server. And if they did it was much later on because when I played this server it had to have been 2009.

Its been a couple years since i beat SoC and Clear Sky, i never got around to playing CoP.

I played them all vanilla, but I installed CoP and it somehow looks worse than both games. How is this possible? Also what mods should i install that will keep the core gameplay but make it look & feel better?

>>174409949
atmosfear/absolute nature/absolute structures/reshade to make it not look like shit

>>174409134
no need making your hardware pump out all those fps if your monitor cant display it.

i have mine capped at 60 fps, monitor running 62hz. the enginestutters every time it's loading/spawning things. thish is why pushing out your alife switch distance can help alot, but eats up more resources. so that + SSD = minimal stutters.

Taco'n'Banana did run a STALKER roleplay server a couple times, including a few months ago. Both times it died out due to weird cliquishness common in Garry's Mod servers (ie. admins furnishing exosuits and high-end weapons to their friends) and the owner being a mentally ill tranny who would randomly get online do things like and kill everyone with infinite health enabled

>>174412235
You don't know the half of it
t. oldfag who played DSRP with Dave Brown/Rick Dark back in the day

Did you see that ARMA3 mod btw? Think there's enough interest to justify the costs of maintaining an English server?

To be honest, I'd rather just make my own game than mod and host servers for someone else's at this point but who knows, could be fun if I didn't have to deal with WAAAAH HE RDMED ME reports 24/7

>>174412365
> Think there's enough interest to justify the costs of maintaining an English server?

Certainly, there is a base of about 100-150 oldfag STALKER roleplayers who would play it. Right now there's a Garry's Mod STALKER roleplay server which is just 100% vanilla nutscript with some TNB skins and it maxes out at 36/36 players most of the day.

>>174412581
Think there's enough to justify the costs? ARMA 3 servers cost quite a bit.

>>174412694
Impossible to say, but roleplay communities are known for being lucrative. The dude in charge of Lemonpunch quit his job and coasted for years off donation money.

What is it about Call of Chernobyl that eats so many frames? With vanilla DX11 Call of Pripyat on maximum settings I get unchanging 240 FPS, with CoC I get 100-120. It really sucks 'cause I have a 240hz monitor

I noticed it uses ~10% CPU and ~60% GPU (of a 7700k and GTX 1070), pretty odd

>>174418000
don't play on DX11 because it's shit, go 10 or 9 enhanced

>>174418080
DX10 gives the same framerate as DX11, maybe 2-4 more. Even if DX11 was somehow responsible it wouldn't explain why vanilla DX11 CoP does solid 240FPS on maximum settings and DX11 CoC can't even get 120 on minimum

Also I should mention that going from maximum to minimum graphics in Call of Chernobyl isn't improving my framerate at all, it's still at ~100-120, just with ~40% less GPU usage (from ~60% to ~20%). It's almost as if Call of Chernobyl stops trying to render more frames past 100 or so.

Thinking about reinstalling SGM 2.2 but I kinda want to try something else. I've played most mods but mods like AMK and SGM are my favorites. Hated Misery.

Ugh you tried the cock with any flavourings yet?

>>174427534
Only tried honey mustard and ranch.

Playing Shadow of Chernobyl here, wondering about side missions

You can ask a bunch of characters "do you have a job for me" and they give you some tasks like "kill the mutants" or "kill the bandits"
Are those endlessly generated or limited, and should I bother with them?

The trader has like five of them available and I'm wondering if I should take them all, just one or two or ignore them all together

Do you think STALKER is gonna get a remake/reboot?

I wouldnt be surprised if another company bought the rights and made a shitty generic FPS with STALKERs name

>>174437217
No it's not. Since STALKER is a cult game making profits out of it can be difficult

>>174437217
Sidorovich won't give out the rights unless it is a ridiculous amount of money, according to his own words.

And no, we won't be seeing a reboot.

>>174437217
If it would happen it wouldn't be via a slav studio. Modern full scale 3D video games take so much money to create that no soviet-block developer can accommodate them.
That's why STALKER 2 shut down mid development, they didn't realize how much money it was going to take.

I'm not sure a western country could do a STALKER game well. The tone of STALKER is accomplished by popular slavic concepts like the futility of life. An American STALKER game would miss the point entirely and have you set out on an ultimately successful mission to destroy the Zone.

>>174399578
Turn off godrays and volumetric lightning.

Lower your SSAO settings.

Try messing with lightning and view distance, there's pratically no visual difference between 100% and 75% and it can give you some extra frames.

does STCoP fuck with bullet damage? I don't remember needing 15 body shots with 5.45x39mm to down a single bandit on master

yes I can shoot them in the head, stay on topic

>>174445101
Are you shooting them while they are stunned/staggered?

There's some fuckery going on that ignores non-head damage during those animations.

Installing the warfigher mod seemed to fix it for me. But that also makes everything far more lethal, which may not be a solution for you.

>>174445101
Every CoP mod has retarded bullet sponge HP values, CoC makes you do ~5 rifle headshots to kill a helmetless enemy

>>174445872
headshots are pretty much always insta kills for me

If it's your first time in SoC ignore the assassination missions. They don't pay much and can fuck up relations unless you really know what you are doing.

The mutant jobs are fine as long as you're using ZRP to account for script bugs.

>>174452698
I took all the missions after I figured out that they are connected in a way, like I found the mutant parts while getting the suit and the jellyfish while killing the boars

This isn't good for me and my autism I will end up doing all this shit, I'm getting all the cashes too
The only assassination I have to do is the "sales representative", any tips on murdering stalkers?

I have ZRP

Why

>>174453118
>any tips on murdering stalkers?

The best way is to accept the mission only when they're in a traveling mode that allows the Zone to take them.

Otherwise, go for a headshot from outside of the "alert" radius.

If you're in Bar, just shoot them in the ass with a silenced pistol and duck behind a Duty guard.

>>174455273
Thanks anon
I found a silenced pistol recently, it seems pretty nice

I should just throw away any guns that I don't need to use myself, right?
I'm keeping two of the starting pistols because of item durability

Does this extractor work for CoP? Can't tell if it's just for CoCk and they put CoP in front of it since it uses that version of the engine.

You never know how many pistols you might need amiright

What is a good overhaul mod to play for cop? No coc either. That shit is boring. No misery either. I don't care for the economy and don't feel like editing the files. I do like the gun play of misery though. Does sgm have good gun play?

>>174459401
sgm 2.2 lost soul, can be rough at times but it's good.

>Does sgm have good gun play?
yes, though people complain about everything, you might want to edit some values to your liking like damage values

I don't mind some fetch quests at the start. I'll try it out, thanks.

is the zone manual pretty foolproof or is there still stuff to find/avoid? i'd like a mostly vanilla experience but with mods. an enhanced experienced, just not an overhaul. ya get me?

Nah, it's fine

Well, if you are starting by SoC (wich is recommended), then ZRP is the mod you are gonna need.

So I'm playing SoC vanilla for the first time. I've beaten it numerous times with mods. I'm trying to get the documents from the military outpost in Cordon but when i sneak in nobody in sleeping and there are always two dude watching tv. When I try by force the ak might be able to hit the side of the building at 50 meters. I want to change all vanilla weapon values to CoC AO values to see what happens and if it makes bullets a little less retarded and lethal. What is the quickest way of doing this? I have notepad++ and winmerge but I have no experience with winmerge. I might just change the current ak I have and see what happens. There aren't many values to change in SoC. I know not to change sounds and shit like that.

>>174487263
change
fire_dispersion_base to make the weapon more accurate (lower is more accurate fire)

hit_power = 0.78 ; size of damage by bullet

hit_impulse = 33 ; size of physical impulse by bullet

>>174487904
ah ok. I thought hit power was the stagger factor of a round. I just ended up using a toz and slugs.

I've been playing a lot of CoC lately, but feel like playing something with more structure and a story. What is the current go to mod for SHoC?

>>174489364
it is the amount of impulse a bullet has, which triggers the stagger animation at a certain level.

that's all i really know about that, i usually keep it low though.

>>174489450
>plays CoC before finishing all 3 games vanilla and then modding them
you basically ruined it for yourself already

>>174490163

I've already played SHoC, CS and CoP.

AMK is the most go to mod of SoC, you just gotta decide on which version and variant.

LURK 1.05 also a solid choice that doesn't change much, don't go for the latest LURK.

STALKERSOUP is another meme every stalker must try, as there is nothing like killing imaginary pseudogiants with a minigun while carrying 800kgs of hello kitty AKMs and 600 other unsorted items.

Autumn Aurora like LURK, don't change much of the story, its well made, polished and comfy, it does come with an ENB so if you dislike that sort of shit you will have to turn it off.

Then there is ZoA, which every stalker must try at least once before you quit from massive dog infestation and stack traces
