Amazing work... I have to confess I didn't believe you guys could do it - after seeing the "early release" versions in 2014. But what little I've played of the new Developer Cut release - leaves me VERY, VERY impressed.
My only criticism is the requirement to install the OpenAL Soft libraries (http://kcat.strangesoft.net/openal.html) - as another user mentioned...
Without this fix the OOTB in-game sound is TRULY AWFUL!! This makes the game practically unplayable - in the stock state...
Oh no!! Another reason to sink countless hours into 0AD campaigns 8->
Hi Devs,
First of all I appreciate all the hardwork you've put into this standalone mod. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SOC remains my favourite game of all time (one of the few I've bothered to struggle through to the end).
However I have put S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Lost Alpha "somewhat" on the shelf. I find it really hard to play the game with adequate alife stuff floating about the zone. For example I really miss the packs of wild dogs. It's lacking that immersion X-factor and random danger... I do also desperately need a new GPU (that new 2540x1440 display is a GPU killer as well)!!
Really looking forward to version 1.3004. Hoping the alife issue will be addressed. But I would gladly wait another decade for a game with the polish required and demanded of the series!
I am the maintainer of the WineHQ AppDB page for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Lost Alpha. FYI the mod runs OK on a Linux Desktop (in DirectX 9.0c mode)... I've put in quite detailed instructions to help new users install the mod - since there is no "official installer".

hmmm... zombies!! (to be read in Homer Simpson style)
Yey!! A decent looking CryEngine 2 mod. Watching this space!!

Hoping you keep to the 2009 deadline you guys have set yourself... Oh damn it I've wet m' pants again!!
Bob
Ok thanks Garcy...
So that'll be a full download - the 1.5 version - right? All sounds great. Do I have to wait another 1-2 years - like Black Mesa - or is the mod release going to be sorted in the timescale of months??

I also can't try out your mod. as there is no where to download the full mod. (v. 1.2) with an intact installer!!
www dot strategyinformer dot com is the only site and it has a broken installer package.
Help!!
Even if you could upload a torrent to get it going again that would be great... I'll happily keep seeding it!!
