Water + Girls + Ship like attachments = Probably Kancolle.
Character a the 5 second mark seems to match one of the characters I've seen fanart of as well.

Its part of the animation - you'll need to extract it out, speed it up, then replace it over the original.

Can't remember if there is a setting to control animation play speed or not.

I got tired of beating myself over the head with a crowbar trying to get the XRay engine to do what I wanted (and failing repeatedly due to the fact that the CS version of XRay was most times incapable of doing what I wanted).
Plus starting work fulltime didn't leave me with much spare time, not to mention my other projects I have on the go eating into what little free time I had.
And you know how you can only have so much of a good thing right? Well, I'd OD'ed on Stalker for far too long, and needed to take a break.
If I do return to Stalker, I'd probably do small mods.
Anyway, pretty sure I made most of my assets available for anyone to use.

Haven't really watched the 1st & 2nd movies fully, but they just seem to be a remastered version of the series, back to back.
So you should be Ok to watch the 3rd movie.

Update - been to the doctors (and if I need to go, its usually because I am not doing well).
Good news: My symptoms are more typical of hayfever, apart from the stabbing headache. There have been more hayfever related treatments lately, and given my allergies, the doctor thinks this is the cause of my blocked sinuses and pulsing forehead headaches. So I've been cleared of a cold.
Bad news: The doctors medical opinion, based on the location of said stabbing headache, means I've either got an inflamed muscle in the neck thats pulling/pressing on something it shouldn't be, OR one of the spinal processes in either the C2 or C3 vertebrae has come out of alignment slightly, and is pinching either a muscle or nerve slightly.
In either case, it is firing the pain up to a nerve cluster on the back of the skull causing the stabbing headaches.
I've been given some new meds, and they are dealing with the pain better, so now I have windows where I can think clearly.

I just hope its an inflamed neck muscle...

Just a heads up - i've somehow managed to have caught a summer cold. So until I'm better, I've suspended work on this so the release will unfortunately be delayed.
Cant think straight with these migraines either

*Ahem*

I won't have decent internet during Christmas, so I won't be able to upload.
I'll aim for New Years, as I'll be back at my place then.

I'm currently working on fixing the Garbage Bandits, have my own plans there.
I'll do the same to the Duty and Freedom bases. You'll be able to completely wipe them out once you conquer them as part of the faction war.

True, its covered under a creative commons licence, which is essentially a free copyright licence.
Unless explicitly stated, work remains copyrighted to the owner, and requires written permission of the original creator(s) to be used.

I may not be a modeller, but I am a professional software developer. I have used some code that I have developed, and even some game mod code as part of my portfolio when applying for jobs. This code is copyrighted to me, and is my intellectual property. It allows me to say "This is what I am capable of" to a potential employer.

True, DoW models can only be used within DoW, but there is nothing stopping those who made those models including them in their portfolio when applying for work, as it shows their potential value to an employer. When created, they are copyrighted to the person who made them, and are their intellectual property. But not obtaining legal permission under copyright law, what you are effectively doing is art theft, which is illegal under ModDB's T&C. I already know one modeller who was banned because of similar scenario.

Zahaqiel is not being unfriendly here, instead you are. He is merely protecting the work of those who created the original models, and gave permission for them to be included into the Tyranid Mod. You, on the other hand, are claiming that because the original model owners cannot be contacted, the copyright on their work has automatically expired. Copyright law doesn't work like that.

Reported. The ModDB community doesn't need people with your attitude (and hopefully this is the last time I need to do this)

Time to go digging!

Also, as of CS (and possibly CoP given this), the 'lift anomaly still works. Might be worth you looking at.

Be nice to see a video of these on action. Wouldn't be surprised if GSC had left the engine classes in

These anomalies working ingame?

You'll just have to wait and see. I don't plan on giving up just yet. Come very close a few times though :/

If you bothered to read the description on the download, you would have noticed the only playable level is the Cordon, and it is more of a demo showcasing the start of the mod at that stage, and the alife interactions.
Also what commander are you referring to?

I didn't say what storyline changes there would be, or that you *had* to do the storyline missions at all *hint*. I just said I would be expanding on the existing storyline, I just didn't say how.

I'm currently working on it, but previously, due to RL reasons, I often have had to leave it large periods of time. I'm going to clarify what I'm doing soon.

Yep. Apart from the new overridden home page, there is nothing new here. Not worth the download. Still the same clunky UI. Still slower than Firefox and Chrome together.
Its a good attempt by Microsoft, but sadly, apart from new visuals, if offers nothing to the web experience. If Microsoft really wanted to do something worthwhile, giving IE a startup speed approaching that of Firefox or Chrome would be an excellent first start, not this marketing ploy.

Alot. No medkits, hes just wearing about an inch of armour. I'm lucky he only had one grenade.
And it was a SKS I was using. Colt 1911 as a backup weapon (which would have done bugger all)
I think next time I'll pack more ammo. Or a better gun.

I still want to release this, but current time and work commitments means I don't yet know whether I can complete it within a reasonable timeframe. I can't reliably predict more than a week or two in advance what work will be like. Its eased of a bit now, enough for me to actually get back into proper development.
So don't hold that message as Word of God. That was then, this is now, and right now, I might not get it finished this year, but I can make some decent headway on it. At this stage, I might be able to get another limited level demo out by Christmas.
I'd rather pull out a massive update of a mod that is well on its way to completion rather than break the news that I might be able to finish it at what is supposed to be the most joyous time of the year (or something like that).
Either way, just watch for any videos/images going up, it'll give a better indication of what I'm doing. I'll try provide a few more updates.

I think you need to move the whole rig back a bit. Looks like its being held right out front away from the body.

Wow, that CS base game review? Either he didn't patch it properly, or every single random bug you could occasionally experience in a playthrough he somehow managed to get.
Then again, it was done with a starter pack, so that might have had something to do with it.

Then who will fix the inevitable bugs you guys find if you do that?

The blue patches right? I know.
I've got something like 100-200 textures (exlcuding detail and bump maps) from SoC that need to be converted from the SoC format to CS format, and its about a 5 minute minimum job per texture, and I need to guesstimate the settings so it looks right, otherwise its another 3-5 minutes to redo it if I get it wrong.
I'm going to cheat, and look at some of the CoP mods that add SoC maps, and just take the textures out of there, save me a lot of time. I'll still have to do some textures, but it probably won't be too many.

Weekend today, so time to do some more work on the bar

Will do.

I don't see the difference.

Adding things, changing things, removing things, etc. Trying to recreate the SoC feel of desolation, rather than the CS one of a central hub.
In fact, there are 2 (technically 3) new things in this picture. Take a guess.

No, and because of the T&C which GSC allows us to mod, we aren't allowed to accept donations.

Sorry for the late reply.
Full version will take a while. I have a lot to do, and very little spare time to do it in. Fixing bugs and errors, and trying to get everything working and balanced takes a while, not to mention implementing everything. I am aiming to have another version released sometime this year though.
