STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl Mod Thread

Does anyone remember where the M110 SASS is in Autumn Aurora?

I remember I had it by the time I got to the dark Vally and dealt with the bandits but I have no idea where I could have got it from.

It's in the electro anomaly tunnel in Wild Territory.

Thanks. All I could think of was a stash in the Dark Vally for some reason.

Ammo for it appears to be more plentiful as well now. Both the 100 rads barkeep and the lake Yantar base stock it after the first lab is clear instead of just the Freedom quartermaster at the Army barracks. But the price is a little steep at 5000RU for magazine of 20 rounds.

 

[Surf Solar]

Wow. Never found that weapon, is it a shotgun or a sniper rifle? Only sniper in AA I have is the Mosin, saw the SVD at trader in freedom base but it was too expensive.

 

[Kouvo]

It's a sniper rifle.

Silva Ah Topol... if you want to do those missions it's best to do them as soon as you get to to Zaton. The science quests aren't vital. I think you need them to get the best ending but it's not a big deal.

Thanks. What I did was to get a spawner tool and get that artifact from the tunnel direct in my pocket. Then the scientists accepted it and the missions progressed normally. In fact, you can tell the scientists Topol and his stalkers are dead, and they open a quest for you to find a replacement team of Stalkers. I invited Mitay (the one you save from hostage earlier) and he accepted.

This game is so cool I find something new even in my 10th playthrough.

Silva Wow, that's a great find. It is amazing that there always seems to be something new. It's probably due to AA2 but yesterday I found a short cut through the Red Forest. Just past the first corner along the road, you can jump over the fence and head straight to the place with the 3 dead scientists. Urgh... in the previous post I meant Yanov, not Zaton.

Surf Solar The M110 is a beast. Definitely worth checking out. The Duty trader also sells another sniper, the SV-98. Had a lot of fun with that. Do you know where the Vintar BC is? That's probably my favourite weapon in the game. Another 'sniper' rifle you might want to check out is the modified TRs-301. Love the sound of it in AA2. Very satisfying.

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

Any recommendations for SoC mods?
I tried Complete and Zone of Alienation so far, and they were both...disappointing.

 

[Sodafish]

Try Autumn Aurora.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Doom's Mod Merge v4 Anon Edition is all you need.

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

Try Autumn Aurora.

Looks neat. Downloading it now.
Does it have shenanigans like in ZoA? As in, NPC's being able to one shot you in poor visibility, or squads of soldiers spawning in cordon in the early game?

What does that do? It's not very clear.

The lethality of the guns/grenades - and the accuracy of the guns - is substantially increased (even the POS starting Makarov is fairly effective). So yes, NPCs can kill you very quickly up close, but they're not omni-aware supermen like they are in Misery, so at range it's much more forgiving. Even so, you have to keep on yer toes at all times.

The wildlife/mutants are also more dangerous, and supplies are much more limited/expensive than in vanilla. Applying medkits/bandages and eating/drinking also takes time and puts your weapon away for the duration.

Damn.. I would LOVE a SV98.. But I killed all those Duty fuckers at the bar, every last one of them. Is there any way to access their armory? Its locked.

Oh that's ok. As long as I deal the same damage to them, I'm happy with the damage increase.

It's freeplay mod, you can play any faction, visit any location from the start and just wander around and collect artifacts. It have some LURK elements (gunplay). True gem.

Did the animation for the Ak74U get changed in AA2?

I could swear that when I first played it there was an animation for the folding stock.

Yeah I saw that as well. It doesnt matter though - it looks still awesome

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

So, I just started AA2.
So far I'm enjoying it. It's pretty difficult without resorting to bullshit, the atmosphere and graphics are top notch, and it manages to have a minimal HUD without alienating the player.

 

[Echo Mirage]

Has anyone found the location of a FN Fal or an M16?

I see them on the weapons list. But no vendors stock anything higher than a Cobra Ak74 and maybe a Groza. On the Nato side of things I haven't seen anything beyond bullets.

 

[Kouvo]

You get the FN Fal through a quest. It's in the very first village, I think it pops up after Wolf leaves it, you have to defend it from mercs then you get it as reward.

 

[Surf Solar]

Yes you also get the M16 from the merc leader there.

My game constantly crashes and stutters randomly now that I progressed through lots of the story. Makes playing a hassle

 

[Sodafish]

lol at getting enough ammo for the FAL though at 4-5k for 20 rounds. I have yet to find any in a stash or anything.

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

What ammo does the FAL need anyway? 7mm?

 

[Echo Mirage]

7.62×51mm NATO. 5000RU for a box of both normal and AP rounds. 100 rads barkeep as well as the scientists sell up to 100 rounds of both.

 

[Sodafish]

No it's 5k for the AP, 4k for normal, at least at the ecologist place. At those prices it's best saved for the luvverly SASS.
