The L.U.R.K. team wants to provide the best possible experience from Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, we don't plan to skew the scope of this game, because I, like many others, fell in love with the game because of the story, the realistic gameplay, and the atmosphere. I plan to preserve and improve on that concept to the best of my abilities, and our team has vowed to do so as well. Which is why we took it upon ourselves to provide that experience. We want to fulfill a niche that's otherwise unfulfilled in the modding community. We want to bring as many features to Stalker without damaging or changing the original theme of the game. While improving upon that concept with features that were dropped off the development cycle from GSC, such as stealth AI, and a strong foundation for balance, as well as dynamic A-Life, and an unprecedented visual presentation that no other Stalker Overhaul can touch.
Textures are maybe 50% done.
And yet again, you have out done yourself.
Very, very, very nice.

But why the hell does it have 7.62x39 magazine?
5.45x39 mag should be looking like this - http://www.armoury-online.ru/usr/templates/images/icon_1280728956681.jpg
And if you wanna original 7.62x39 magazine with a short AK, then you should love this baby - AKMSU.

It's a metallic 5.45x39 mag (they do exist) :P
A 7.62x39 mag would be more curved.

Emh, I need another vision of your model XD
Cause with this position this mag totally looks like 7.62x39 for me =/
I don't want to be an ***, but just enjoy the work he's done.

I CANNOT enjoy a work with weapon if I'm not sure that it is realistic. Ya know, everybody has his own categories which can let him "enjoy".
As long as it looks like a gun, shoots like a gun, and sounds like a gun, I could care less what the bullets are... Ok maybe a little =P

We, slavic peoples, take care about details a lot. Details, exactly details, are very important, my friend.
There`s a difference about enjoying details that affect gameplay and being a gun freak just for the sake of it. Especially when the dev proved that you're wrong, give it up already.

Its MY way to shut up and look at AKS-74U while thinking that it can be not 74 at all, or to continue asking.
So go and do what you want, and I will do what I want.
Poland and Romania both use stamped steel '74 mags like the one in the model. Like so: Imageshack.us

I like the look of the polymer mags too but metal mags are NOT incorrect and it'd be hard to say that Millenia hasn't done an excellent job with them.
I was about to say that, but still. Owned.

Thanks for the information!
But you didn't get it. The mag doesn't have a form of 5.45 magazine. It has a 7.62 form instead.
:@BioShocker
So you complaining about wrong form? Where have you been when devs posted this: Moddb.com and this: Moddb.com ?
Yeah, my fault. Didn't see that before. But it is better to find out a problem even at this period rather than after mod's release, eh?
Trash this comment

Russian and Ukrainian Military don't use metallic 5.45x39 mags. Metallic mags only for 7.62x39. (In Russia and Ukraine)
Wow this is the best texture I have ever seen, you are a true master.
I'm curious Millenia, is the baked normal map going to show up ok in the X-Ray engine? As I recall the normal maps I've seen for S.T.A.L.K.E.R are very green and very lacking in the detail department...
This is a stunning texture, and model, but I'm going to side with BioShocker here, it looks very much like the 7.62x39 magazine, and not the 5.54x39. Just sayin... :)
We'll see, if it looks like **** ingame then I'll just bake the lighting into the textures in 3ds max.
****. The wooden parts just look incredible. Amazing job.
Thanks. The wood texture is actually entirely handpainted :D
Wow. It looks incredibly real. ^__^
50% done? wow
holy ...!
This really is something! Keep up the good work! :)
They should of sent a poet...
