Version 0.8! That's excellent news Clear_strelok, when will it be available for download? My mouth is watering.

I didn't even see this image at the main site. God I hope my system doesn't need me to lower the grass slider any. Simply mouth watering

See. this is why I still visit moddb... It's so colorful here.

In all fairness to the stoners question, the alpha format videos do not actually show the military choppers attacking anyone, just on patrol. I even wondered about that myself but with all that dezo-group has done with this project, I assumed it would return fire if fired upon. Of course the question about cut anims is in FAQ so no mercy on that question however... lol.

Ok, enough time spent here, heading back to the "real" LA page to flood the forums with legit questions. Like mutant AI!!! Still waiting... Dez, wink wink.

Congrats on the new site. For a work in progress, it's looking pretty good. Great new video to kick things off over there. Seeing just a small fraction of what went into making those levels and the effort involved sure makes me appreciate you guys on a whole new level. A thousand times thank you and hope to see all the followers from moddb over at the new pad. Cya!

22 min! Sprinting!
Dez, now your just being cruel. Keep it up.

The book series.
I have Roadside Picnic. Interesting story but it didn't satisfy my interest in the zone the way I hoped it would. I've heard the series books read like there right out of the game world. I actually found a site that has the German language translated to English but it still reads like pig Latin to me. I swear I'm so close to getting Rosetta Stone and learn me some Russian. I already have a head start = Vodka!

Question for the community. In an effort to ease the pain and suffering brought on by waiting for LA, I wanted to read the STALKER series books. However, I cannot find any English versions of them. Does anyone out there know of any translated copies or if they exist at all?

I see screen shots listed as version 0.7.5. Can I start to get excited about its release soon? I think this MOD is already great but the mutants not fighting back against the zombies is hard to ignore and it's all I've wanted fixed for some time now.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Nothing was said about difficulty killing rats or trouble dealing with them in the zone, but thanks for the pep talk just the same tough guy...

Just curious if Dez was happy with the visual results of the lil rats in this new lush ground or if any changes were made. Thats all.

Dez, with all the dense ground foliage, have you noticed difficulty in seeing the small rats? I noticed on one of the alpha formats that there is a rat wandering close to the actor but its barely visible in the thick grass.

It just occurred to me. If your adding in the BTR (armored vehicle), does that mean you've enabled the turret-gun on it? With extremely limited ammo that could be awesome. Even if its just for like one specific mission. Maybe like , use the BTR to defend some camp from a mutant stampede or some other crazy ****.
I realize it's late in the game to keep adding new features, just a thought. Every time I visit this site I spend the next 20min daydreaming about this damn game so bare with me.

Another month and another mouth watering calendar. Nice.

I admit, he got me. It's not April until tomorrow for me here in the states...
I was like, ohh hell no!
Good job Dez, funny stuff.

I didn't get that from Dez0wave.gameru.net. Thanks.

Y0 Dez. Can't load your web site. Does that mean the revamped site you've hinted at is going to be up soon?

I have seen the same error trying to travel to Jupiter from any location after I completed about 2\3 of game quests. Can't remember what quest specifically I was on. I abandoned the quest and finished the game as is. Mostly did that because this site seems to have lost its pulse.
Not saying dead... just needs shock paddles or something cause its been awfully quiet here lately.

Just an ordinary stalker...
No way, someone of his stature should replace the
C-Consciousness. I see it now, the Monolith carved in Dezo's image.
HA! just foolin. I expect to see some bad *** stalker somewhere in the zone, decked out in top-of-the-line gear and holding some seriously valuable info or artifact or something.
Maybe...? See, all this waiting and anticipation is taking my stalker thoughts over the deep end.

Yeah, chopper support for military for sure. If you ambush a patrol, they should be able to call for more troop support or air support. Killing military and sticking around the area should be a death sentence.
Since it appears there is a lot of LA content yet to be seen, maybe these things have been worked out already. Or scrapped if they were buggy.
Waiting for alpha format is becoming to much like waiting for the next season of my favorite show. I suck at being patient.
PS: Enjoying Priboi. It's no LA but I do like the plot.

I caved in. Too much exposure to this site has driven me to extremes!
Just started Priboi Story. Lets see if this thing can sate my appetite until LA.

Dez, how come AI do not climb ladders?
I realize it could be used against them but if there was a way to set AI to climb onto rooftops when flanking enemies or something other than pursuit, I think that would be interesting.

So cool to see uncharted territory.

Is updated version on the horizon? I am loving this mod but so tired of zombies killing all the mutants cause they wont fight back. I'd do it myself if its just some file that needs a value changed or something.

This looks very promising. Question, is there a way to get the mutants to occupy or wander into the buildings once there cleared of quest AI? Places like the ranger station and waste station maybe even Jupiter plant would be cool if mutants try to claim as there lair. Everything's (structures) so empty after the missions.

Is there a way to get mutants to enter and occupy empty buildings? I've noticed with just about every MOD I have played (and vanilla) that once you clear a building of a scripted event or NPC, mutants do not enter or dwell in them. Pripyat is a good example. All those hotels and other tall buildings are empty. Where is the bloodsucker who shows up and claims that hotel for his own and all who enter his penthouse are meal time. Its a safe bet that if your a floor above ground nothing but humans will be there unless scripted.

I really like the way you have the the spawns setup. I've played through just about every quest and explored the far corners of each map and I have yet to see anything spawn in my face. Nice. I was wondering though, is there a way to get the mutants to occupy or wander into the buildings once there cleared of quest AI? Places like the ranger station and waste station would be cool if mutants try to claim as there lair. Everything's (structures) so empty after the missions.

Nice. Looking forward to next version. Other than the mutant\zombie issue, this mod is excellent. Good work.

Same here. I was thinking of giving it a go ever since Dez mentioned the hanging lights shake during blowouts was in Priboi, but I swore about a year ago I wouldn't burn myself out on another SoC mod until the Gran-daddy of all mods, LA is released. Maybe I cave in and try it if LA doesn't make a 2012 release.

This MOD is sweet but all the zombies are killing mutants. Mutants don't respond to zombies. Is there a simple fix for that or is it something for the next updated version?

That's kinda cool. I do like the psy damage taken. Makes it a really dangerous anomaly if there's an enemy anywhere close to the exit point.
I see NLC also has a video on lighting campfires. That's a familiar topic...

Nice MOD. Enjoying very much. Since this is still being developed, will you be adjusting mutant AI? I see that mutant animals ignore zombies and therefore just stand there until shot dead. You wouldn't believe how many pistol rounds it takes a zombie to drop a motionless Chimera.
Having a good time with it though, keep up the good work.
