good but it needs a lot of work
I'm doing my best.
going to give this mod a try. thank you for the translation will let know how it goes
Is it done now?
Yes, bro. Only minor fixes remain.
Differences from the last release? Only repackage?
I updated the English translation and fixed the crash you found.
The ACOG related one? Thank man!
"gamedata.dbo" makes the game crash at start. Removing it the game crashes....after some time :p Can you check if it's correctly packed? Unpackers can't unpack it (all the other dbx of the mod can be unpacked)
Bro, you need to delete «gamedata.dbo». This file is from the old version (which you downloaded before). Just delete it.
Right!
OK, tested with 1.0006 from DVD+patches and it works like a charm :D
Can you add the "life bar" (like for "bosses" as the Agroprom Underground controller) for the 2 helicopters (Agroprom and Dark Valley) and the APC in Red Forest?
It can be done, but helicopters aren't like bosses.
I have a WONDERFUL update: -smap4096 works perfectly with the modified exe and it increases the shadowmap resolution to "today" standards :)
The only technical "issue" remaining is how grass shadows destroy performance, like in original SoC. Is there any way to easy the performance hit apart from turning it off?
One way is to modify the engine to be x64 only, but I wouldn't want to do that. There are many players who play on 32-bit systems.
Just some requests/suggestion:
*add a FoV slider like the one in original Shadows Addon (and other games)
*add the option to enable/disable the player shadow (it's a bit fake, engine limits of course)
*add the option to enable/disable the lens flare
*take ALL the low resolution textures to the retail resolution, some texture are REALLY low res compared to other ones:
I.postimg.cc
I.postimg.cc
I manually adjusted the weapon and the player's field of view, so I removed the ability to switch it. Other options may be added in the future, although I already did everything that I originally planned about two years ago.
And one last thing I've already said: About "hardcore and realism" (you say that in another post) maybe *SOME* ammunitions must remain in the guns enemies drop and maybe it's good to find around *SOME* not hidden-stashes goodies (like in original SoC) :p
For the rest, it's the BEST beta implementation we got since ever. Compliments, stalker!
Just completed a run and I'm excited to have seen a dream come true!
For several years I tried very hard to make these dreams come true... Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!
You totally deserve it, it's like having the STALKER we're promised in early 2000s !
does it require a new playthrough?
Yes, you need a new game. Detailed instructions can be found in the «ReadMe» file.
I downloaded the mod on google drive from C-Con discord server. Is it the latest version you'd released?
Drive.google.com
No, bro. I don't recommend downloading from other sources.
There is a bug with the technician in Cordon can be easily killed by dogs and wandering military. It would be better if he's invincible like other important NPC
This is a regular (non-story) NPC that can repair armor or upgrade weapons. In any case, don't forget about the second mechanic in the bar area.
Could you make a mosin nagant or add more sniping riffles?
I didn't add new weapons as it breaks the original atmosphere. Only the original weapons of the game have been improved. You have SVD, SVU, Vintorez, Gauss, modified (unique) automatic and sniper rifles... If you wish, you can even make a sniper out of an ordinary automatic rifle by installing improvements on the scope, etc.
Bro, cant start the game, it stuck on the loading screen, were it says "Client syncrhonizing".....i have the steam version..btw
Just reinstall the game and then install my mod according to the instructions.
can i play this on 32 bit pc?
Yes, I have optimized weapon textures and other game files for players on older computers. DirectX8 is fully working here. You can also additionally remove grass from all locations.
I'm discovering this mod and it's very pleasant to play. Good job :)
About the 3.0:
*old 2.0 saves are compatible?
*old 2.0 user.cfg is compatible?
No, saves and «user.ltx» from 2.0 aren’t compatible with 3.0. You need to reinstall the game.
Grass and minimap are gone, is it possible to have them back? :D
Ah, the graphics options menu(s) is(are) really semplified now, is it intended or it's a bug? -> Imgtr.ee
I have already adjusted everything (except the screen resolution) for maximum performance. Now the game engine works perfectly, without memory crashes and overloads. And the grass in this game leads to crashes and is poorly implemented.
Can you upload 2 addons to renable the grass and the minimap for who wants them?
I can return the minimap (check your private messages). Grass is more difficult, since I'll need to unpack the game archives and make other settings in the configuration files. Therefore, I advise you to try to complete the game without this buggy grass.
I understand it's buggy but the grass is graphic aspect present since the original SoC :|
Forced by myself, renderer_r2 (with r2_sun_near 25. AND
r2_sun_near_border 1.) still works well enough to enable the grass
Stupid bug (? different behaviour than the expected): the heli bombarding Tolik and his companion keeps going around (and the companion is alive): I.postimg.cc
This IF you don't bring immediately the artifact to Sidorovich but go to the Tolik's location when you got the SOS message
Most likely you still have game archives from version 2.0, just reinstall the game.
Archives are new (the oldest is from 24 august 2023). New user.ltx. It's just the hud_date ON
I recommend that you reinstall your game and this mod according to my instructions («ReadMe» file).
The issue about the heli solves by itself if you just bring Sidorovich the artifact BEFORE reaching Tolik, no big deal, just reporting ;) The mod is installed correctly, no problem going on (but I miss the moving grass :D )
R.I.P. grass :D
is this compatible with ZRP?
No, you don't need ZRP. All necessary fixes are already included here.
btw is there an option to disable enemy grenades?
Don't worry, bots don't throw grenades very often.
