Hi, work on gog version??
Haven't tried yet. But you can of course. I believe that if you only copy the gamedata folder it should work.
Hi Dimitri i tested your mod with the GOG Copy of SHOC but it doesn't work
Okay I will see what I will release a patchspecifically for GoG in a couple of days
Stalker! Just leave original bin folder and it works with gog version.
I stumbled around for one hour in Cordon without crashes.
Don't know exact version of exe file. It's date is 02.02.2014.
Wierd error is menue corruption when minimizing 'object detail'.
Beside that little thing it seems to be a nice super-vanilla-mod!
Yes I thought it might be the bin folder. Well the bin folder only adds a new splash screen. Could you post a screen shot of the bug as well?
oh i meant reducing 'texture detail' and restarting the game makes this error.
Btw HUD is corrupted aswell then.
Here is the menue when fx corrupting

Full Dynamic Lightning, mid/high
Gfx: HD4000 ^^
Holy ****... I have to look into it. Tbh tI have made sure the textures have mipmaps so generally they should not bug out when you change stuff but I might have messed something up. Okay I'll have a look I might have made a mistake in the config files as well. Thank you for the feedback 🙂
oh i found other errors.
script wise military at bridge and bandits at car park (garbage, Bes) act way stupid:
-military stand as a group after beeing attacked
(other mods showed that before)
-bandits don't start their raid
anyway i like your mod and i believe this are small errors
greetings
thanks for the feedback :) I generally have not changed anything within the ai behaviour itself so I guess this is something I can actually work on to improve the original Shoc AI :)
Не запускается
My last game save dont load, it crashes the game (it's says that a crash have been detected by BugTrap). I started another save to verify but when i open the door to go to the wasteland it crashes too. There is away to solve it? Im using GOG Version
The mod is pretty cool and awesome but i have a problem, the icons and minimap doesn't appear idk if is because the resolution of the game is in 800x600
