Full concept MODIFICATION of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat that touches every game aspect including textures, sfx, music, weapons, A.I., items, weather, mutants, difficulty and much much more!

Description

This mod/addon/unofficial patch is an overhaul aimed mostly at audiovisual aspects of weapons, however also containing some bug fixes and QOL improvements, and few balance improvements, this file does not mess with original ideas and difficulty of the Misery mod, it is meant to stay as close to the Vanilla mod as possible.

Misery is like Doom in the sense that its the reason we have shooters the way they are today. What would STALKER mods look like if Misery never existed? I dont think Anomaly would be around and CoC would be the best it got.

"What would STALKER mods look like if Misery never existed?"

They'd look original.
They'd have unique stories and moments tied with an interesting story instead of "here is the same game but I made it harder and grey-er".

Comparing Misery's contribution to shooters to Doom's is like comparing Discovery space shuttle to Hindenburg.

The full version is here, and honestly i think it will also be the final version.

As much i still have some ideas for improvements all my modding enthusiasm is pretty much exhausted, and honestly this addon shouldn't have taken me this much time to finish it, but hey, at least i did finish it.

Anyway, i will do some more play-testing, see if there are any issues to fix and check here from time to time if someone reported something.

Also, i fu***d up and instead of "addons" category this file landed in "files" and I'm not quite sure if i should re-up it back to addons or just leave it here.

I still have one last addon for Clear Sky I'd like to release but after that, i guess that will probably be it. But that is something for another time. Peace.

Have you repaired the bullet casings? In your video, when the casings AS VAL fly to the left, and they should be on the right, where is the shutter handle.

Yes i did, that video is over one year old, a lot have changed since then, including the casing particles themselves. I'll have to record a new one, but after i release a patch.

Why didn't you change the models to SVD, SVD "LYNX" and SVU? I didn't find them in your changelog.

I know it is weird with one weapon having ejection ports on different sides but IMO the other models were not this bad and i simply didn't feel like replacing them so just swapped some textures. It will probably stay like that? Idk.

If you continue like this, we might get a "Misery 3.0" after all! I really like the implementation of new scripts and the quality-over-quantity approach, makes it only better! Awesome!

Congrats on the full release and thanks for doing this. Just started a new playthrough and enjoying the changes so far.

One question: The weapon proficiency is stuck on assaulter class even if you're on sniper. The "st_items_weapon.xml" file for sniper class has listed same proficiencies as the assaulter one. It seems like I have the weight, speed, eating, etc. of a sniper though. To be honest, I'm not a Misery veteran enough to tell if the proficiency of my weapons are actually correct (or even how to check that in the files) and if it's just the text that is just incorrect.

Oh yeah you are right, i will have to fix this, but you don't have to worry, it's just a cosmetic issue and does not affect the class, there is nothing but weapon descriptions in that file. Thanks for reporting.

There will be another patch, somewhere in the near future, hopefully this year, no promises on the date though, i don't want to leave this in its current state.

Seems like it would be, but want to make sure before I continue further with my playthrough... will the patch be saved-game compatible?

I'm not exactly sure because the way i put files into my game and the way end users will install this will be different but from experience i can tell you that new models will most likely cause issues if new game is not started but you should have enough time to finish your current playtrough before i drop the patch as i need to make icons for new weapons, still have to do configs for 2 other classes, clean up the obsolete files from folders, adjust this and that and then i still have to fish everything out of my game and compile everything into a patch so yeah as i said no promises on the date but ETA would be somewhere in December.

All that i have left to do is weapon configs and descriptions for 2 other classes so pretty much the most boring part, + compiling ofc, so patch soon™.

hey i've been using this for a while now and i must say all your changes/quality of life tweaks is very good. thanks for this man i'm really enjoying it, this my new go-to mod when replaying misery, patiently waiting for your next update :D

Not much has been happening with this file lately as i'm sure you have noticed. I'm exhausted with everything and, most of all, frustrated with the issues that I can't fix on my own. The skills I've acquired are insufficient to complete this file according to my overly perfectionistic vision.

Additionally, I want to make it known that the next update of this file will be the last, possibly with a minor hotfix if necessary. It's worth mentioning that the problems unrelated to this file, which were supposed to take two weeks to resolve, took almost two months without any possibility to influence or control it on my part, life i guess, but nonetheless i was unable to work on this during that period.

I would like to express my gratitude to those who have been following and encouraging me while i was working on this, i will try to release the file before the end of summer (2023).

As a my final thought i also would like to express sadness. It is really sad to see how a mod that is basically a backbone of currently the most popular stalker mods (at least in my eyes), being left out like that with hardly any interest of modding community.

Thanks for the update and I appreciate all the time you've invested into it. I've really enjoyed all the changes you've made and have completed more of the mod than I did with vanilla Misery 2.x. I understand that modding is a self-less act dedicated purely out of love for the game.

As a 10+ year long Stalker fan, I also agree with your last paragraph. Personally, Misery isn't my favorite mod, but I do wish it would get more attention than the sandbox-type mods that are currently popular.

Misery is my favourite mod and I'm grateful for you sharing your hard work. In the autumn / winter I plan to replay misery from the beginning and look forward to using your overhaul. Keep pushing, your work is appreciated. Best wishes

Patch 3 is live, and as i was previously saying, this is most likely the last patch i will release for this, i am not planning any further work on this, not really going into details why, it simply came time to call it a day.

Again, I'd like to thank you all for your support and encouragements while i was working on this, and i wasn't really able to bring misery to the next gen quality, but I'm still happy how it turned out in the end and i was able to bring most of the changes i wanted.

Anyway, if there are any bugs or issues caused by this file let me know, either PM or a comment down here (pm has higher chance of me noticing it).

Oh, and one last thing.
Good hunting, Stalker.

Thanks for your dedication and hard work, Kardiofatim. Best wishes to you for your future endeavors.

Disregard the prior question. I should have read the Installation guide! Fresh install and new game is required.
