General news about TAZ - The Armed Zone mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

TAZ 1.7.4 is the latest and most stable version released, and it is also the last one for Misery 2.1.1, there will be no further updates until 2.2 is released, the reason is this, Misery Dev team have recruited me some time ago, it was after releasing 1.7.4, this made me able to have a closer look into the progress of Misery, so instead of continuing with updating TAZ I wanted to help up the team, the plan is simple, correct and fix whatever possible within 2.1.1, that's where I started posting "Vanilla updates" in TAZ. Being able to do heavy editing wouldn't be possible if it wasn't because of the help of the masters, Matt "Swartzy", Lance_W, and Millenia through his youtube videos, these guys helped me gathering the needed knowledge to start editing meshes heavily rather than editing ltx files only "I'm not telling you to go ask them for teaching :v".

All the vanilla updates shows what Misery 2.2 will contain, here are some of them :

All the above will use better animations and they are mirrored, and they are just samples, the list is massively long.

Also, several new weapons will be included in Misery 2.2 :

I posted only two weapons variants so not to spoil the update ^^

As for the future updates of TAZ, the plan is simple, wait until 2.2 is out and than start replacing the whole arsenal of Misery with the all brand new HQ models, COLT, RPK, ABAKAN, AKS74u, even some weapons will be replaced and will have new variants, like the Saiga 12k, and obviously new weapons will be added, the Vepr-3V, Veteran AN-94, and even a whole pack of AK-74 with Duty and other variants, obviously that's not all :v just a small dose of what to be ready for.

Here is a glimpse of what Niick did so far for additional camo variants :

these and more will be included in the future TAZ updates, not precisely the next one, but they will be scattered among updates.

Until then, keep on Stalking folks ! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

P.S : Here is a nicely modeled M16 that is definitely going to reach the zone.
