STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl Mod Thread

Playing through Oblivion Lost remake. Wow, it's totally another game. Now I can see that GSC pushed the game towards more action instead of the survival horror style of the old builds. Bloodsuckers doesn't cloack in this mod as far as i know, and they emit a really disturbing scream. I barely see any stalker so far, only 3 or 5 at best. Zombies fit this mod more than vanilla it seems. Blind dogs are also more threatening than vanilla dogs. In vanilla, i almost pity the little fuckers because of those barks. Not anymore i guess:

I haven't played Pripyat or Clear Sky but I played Shadow of Chernobyl with the STALKER Complete 2009 mod installed and I have very fond memories of the experience. Haunting and beautiful.

dnf wow I should really play that mod. The videos are ridiculous.

 

Yeah, that was a lot of dogs.

 

Another WTF-like video. Goddamn machine translation, it's fucking crap. Glad to see that we will have both oldskool and newschool Oblivion Lost.

 

Turns out that they fixed the Vsync issue by forcing it to be on constantly in all three games - not the greatest idea. You can request the original renderer files from support if you are having problems.

 

Version 2.1 of Misery for COP is out. Who wants to go first?

 

Nah, I already installed I Work Alone, which is "Misery light".
First impression - pistols are useful.

Also - finished SoC with OGSE 0.6.9.3b and propably will start with LURK mod soon, or maybe Stalkersoup?

Still no news about Oblivion Lost Remake 2.0?

EDIT
played in LURK 1.1, remind me Zone of Alienation except it's uglier and no mess with magazines.
AI work properly i.e. don't use wallhacks and autoaim.

Propably play it that way but after gaining some time lately I consider to spend it on "shrinking" my backlog.

Stalker COP Misery 2.1
Robbing stalkers.
Injuring people may cause them to surrender. Taking their gun gives you their gun in good condition.

Brb, gonna reinstall CoP and Misery....

 

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. COP Miser 2.1
Sawmill.
Before this I was fighting bloodsuckers and dogs with help from these 3 stalkers.
We eventually cleared out the sawmill, with me as the sole survivor.

 

With the recent turmoil in Ukraine, I wonder how it would affect those studios there.

Zombies are of little threat in 2.1, guns that can barely damage me and terrible accuracy.

 

Strange, I have more will for another Clear Sky playthrough than playing CoP for more than hour...
Visited Boredgunner profile on moddb, found pretty nice mod pack (including Mystery, later evolved into Misery for CoP) and decided to give it a try.

Once again, whole Stalker trilogy appear on my HDD....

Also - I've found some story mod named R.E.B.O.R.N. - Another Way, there is sequel WIP (actually it have same fate as Oblivion Lost Remake 2.0 - mod in russian is ready and translation is WIP).

And I must say that semi auto snipers are lifesavers (based on last SoC with OGSE playthrough)

 

damn

 

How does this cross out any chance of an official addon? Why do they have to release it early exactly? It honestly sounds like an excuse.

 

Early release because anniversary of Chernobyl disaster?
It's something.
Compared to frozen progress of english translation for Oblivion Lost Remake - it's huge step forward.

Anyway - I already finished infamous cave for StalkerSoup, whoever played it then he know, what it's all about.

There is also modpack to Clear Sky (which contain Mystery, prototype for Misery).
Yes, I've decided to play Clear Sky again because it's nice game despite linearity. On the weak side - now enemies have pinpoint accuracy, on the better side - shotguns are deadly, especially for mutants. Might play more soon.

Found some more mods, like SGM Geozone(?) which add more stuff and more character models (actualy, they ripped of them from Metro games).

 

Who leaks a mod? Seriously.
Still, can't wait for April 26th.

 

One thing that bothered me in Misery was how excessively miserable the new textures were. One of the things I liked in STALKER was that it was based off actual exclusion zone instead of grimderp PA fiction (ok, they departed from it a bit in CoP - for worse), and Misery pretty much broke that with its tryhard attitude.

 

Sounds good. Although somewhat unfair to the LA modders, I still want to thank the tester who leaked it.

 

modders are filthy drama queens that's why
