Not sure where the helmet is from (Halo? No fuckin' way) The body armor is definitely from Metro, though.

What would be nice, is for your character to wear facemasks or helmets that don't replace or fully cover the head, similarly having the scientific visors also semi transparent so people wearing them have faces.

A talented Russian modder named Dennis_Chikin made some optimizations to _g.script that significantly speed up load times for the NS, DMX, & Joint Pack mods. I tested against DMX 1.3.2 dkz02 and Joint Pak 1 and it's silly how much faster the game loads from optimizing that script. I've uploaded it to moddb. Give it a shot if you're playing any soup variant. Back up gamedata\scripts\_g.script.script first if you wish to be careful.

I tested against DMX 1.3.2 dkz02 and Joint Pak 1 and it's silly how much faster the game loads from optimizing that script. This has been going pretty well, it's managed to cut loading times for certain levels by at least a minute or two on my potato. However I've started running into another problem, I'm not sure whether or not it is related to these optimized scripts or not - I'm on the third mission for Akim, where you collect the second set of documents (the ones you grab from Agroprom underground), and it crashes as I try to turn it in to him. I start talking to him just fine, then I get to the line where I say something like "I have some extra brains to lend you", and after I click on that it crashes. This is what I got from pasting into an empty .txt after the crash: Expression : fatal error Function : CScriptEngine::lua_error File : E:\stalker\sources\trunk\xr_3da\xrGame\script_engine.cpp Line : 73 Description : <no expression> Arguments : LUA error: ... shadow of chernobyl\gamedata\scripts\dialogs.script:110: attempt to index global 'quest_section' (a nil value) EDIT: it is indeed the (or one of) new scripts, I removed both of them and the quest went through without incident - on top of that, it seems the error also occurs if you try to give unique weapons to Vitek Voron (the weapons dealer by the hangar in the Garbage).

A warning to anyone playing the Dmx mod, after going to lab x18 there's a stupid as gently caress quest where your pda breaks and you have to go to the barman. It removes your hud but that's not the stupid part-you also can't keep your inventory open, it will kick you out less than a second after you hit the button. I think it's triggered when you go near the transition from cordon to garbage. Hope you're not overburdened when it happens...

The main thing is more weapons, but it also has a bunch of smaller stuff in it like Atmosfear, variation mod, and your usual bug fixes. I think it's pretty much just meant to be a Vanilla+ experience, but I've really enjoyed it over the years.

So, recently, I've been playing Far Cry 2, and I have to say that it's the closest thing I've ever experienced to an American STALKER title. You've got a free-roaming world that is ridiculously hostile and deadly every step of the way, you've got a bar full of mercenary buddies who will give you missions and occasionally come to help you out, you've got an abundance of lovely and broken weapons that've been shipped in from the outside world, you've even got the artifact hunting in the form of gps-tagged cases of diamonds. I would give my left ear for a STALKER game using that engine, fire effects and all.

So, I'm trying to get into the Faction Wars mod for Clear Sky, and I was wondering if there were any tips? I guess I'm supposed to increase my faction rep, but what's the best way to that? Is there a best starting faction or something? I just want to lead my faction to victory in claiming the Zone, but I don't know how to quickly join a faction.

A quick google shows me some news on porting Stalker to the Crysis engine. Moddb entry here. Don't get your hopes up, though. It was announced a few years ago and it appears nothing is going on.

Went to the Shooting Gallery in Orlando today to shoot some rental guns, and included a select fire AKM to get that Soviet feel on. It accurately captured the feel of using a piece of poo poo AK that doesn't like you. The inside was visibly corroded, the magazine locking tabs were so worn that it didn't want to insert, at one point the bolt got stuck back, and it went full auto no matter what. In the end I brought it back with the bolt stuck forward and the selector lever unable to be pushed all the way up.

 These people are monsters. Also really like the Arsenal Overhaul changes to the rail gun.  The only draw back is the slower fire rate, I can't take out all the mercs and scientists at the meeting in Pripyat. But more grievous, I can't take out Monolith forces out as fast on the Evacuation mission and kept getting a 1 minute timer pop up because EVERYONE WAS DEAD before I could even set foot in the escape zone. Welp, Kovalsky posthumously gets a medal and The Zone keeps it's secrets as Streloks blood soaks into the streets of Pripyat.

Just noticed, Sokolov didn't even make it out of the laundromat.  My guess is he tripped and face planted sending his nose bone into his brain. Does this have to do with the 'Realistic Damage' optional?

I've hardly ever been able to keep all 4 of those clowns alive to the end. For some reason I often find their bodies out in the open far away from the safe zone, where presumably they got killed by an emission or one of misery's hundreds of one-shot mutants. Why they decided to silently leave home and ruin chances of a perfect ending, I will never know. I think I only ever managed it on my first playthrough, which was purely vanilla.

I just want to know if anyone is going to pounce on making a Call of Chernobyl: The Faction Wars mod. Also have there been any new versions of the original TFW for Clear Sky released in the past 7 months or so? I've been gone for a while.

Call of Chernobyl has functionality to set smart_terrains to be "faction war" enabled. So people can easily set up every smart to be battled over by every faction and have a huge, all out war in the zone. I think COC has made The Faction Wars obsolete.

Speaking of Call of Chernobyl, they're nearing release. They want to release on ModDB first, but after that they're going to need some torrent seeders and I said you guys would likely help out. Who's up for that?

Made it to Pripyat and successfully obtained the unidentified weapon using the trench coat and the TT-33 and Mosin. Really like that AO3 added an upgrade tree to the TT-33, used to be a pain when it would start jamming fairly quickly with no +% to reliability

The headbob in Chernobyl is insane. Like several times higher then it should be. Supposedly I need to go to the .ini and changed some settings to 0. However upon opening the .ini all those settings are already at 0. What am I missing here?

Rookersh posted:The headbob in Chernobyl is insane. Like several times higher then it should be. There are two settings that modify headbob, one directly and the other indirectly. Effectors.ltx in gamedata/config/misc has the direct headbob settings. User.ltx has cam_inert which indirectly reduces headbob but also changes all camera momentum. I suggest halving or zeroing the 3 headbob settings in effectors.ltx and setting cam_inert to 0.32.

Fixed that by setting r2_sun_shadow_border to 1. But now shadows are super blurry if they aren't close to me/have to cache in as I walk past them. I'm guessing that's just the price I have to pay to get shadows working at all?
