STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl Mod Thread

[DraQ]

TBH I never found any location in CoP particularly scary. Nothing on the order of X18 or Red Forest, in any case.
It had its fair share of atmospheric and/or fun ones, but didn't really work as horror, unlike its predecessors.

Maybe Misery changes things a bit, I dunno, I only played it for a while.

 

[Darklife]

Yeah I have a hard time thinking of anything on the magnitude of Agroprom Underground or X 18.

The only place that genuinely creeped me out was the Jupiter factory. The atmosphere was crushing for some reason.

 

[Invictus]

So how is the new Misery 2.1? It certainly looks nice and unlike others I do dig the all the browns and greys but how is the gameplay changes? I like the Patch first version of Mysery which uses almost the same mechanics as vanilla CoP but with less resources andwhatsnot but the changes they made for 2.0 kind of turned off; all the psychic soldiers with pinpoint accuracy, supah zombies and the old & worn mechanics to weapons seemed kind of masoquistic and not fun.
But seeing those videos and general comments it might be worth a look
Back to Lost Alpha I hope the Dezowave guys make a torrent with LA so they can control themselves the distribution of the mod this time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQWUr_G_25w Pay attention to the sound design.
The only thing i think they will not deliver is the quest design. Call of Prypiat is a bar to high for unpaid modders. Only 4 days left.

In the grim darkness of the far future, flashlights give less light than a single LED . Already see it will be the first thing to mod, it's just as bad as vanilla.

Misery 2.1 is fine. Still has a couple of really annoying stuff (like enemies being able to snipe you from 300m with assault rifles) but I'm really enjoying it. I narrowly escaped death from 2 Chimeras near Jupiter yesterday.

 

[Invictus]

Oh hi there Skacky didn't you notice it was you with that avatar
One more day guys I am psyched about LA.
I was waiting to replay Dark Souls 2 on the PC but I have to say I am more interested now in a long weekend with Lost Alpah

Seriously where the fuck is it?

 

[skacky]

They're having trouble uploading it, apparently.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

I've waited for nearly a decade, what's another couple of hours or a day anyway?

 

[Baron Dupek]

Might be pity if they didn't make it for today. Such aniversary... which also can give them reason for another (propably bigger) delay.
That's my loose interpretation of Murphy's Law.

 

[Darklife]

Welp, they're saying that they can't upload it to ModDb, so a torrent will be up in 4 hours.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Meanwhile - there is something else. It's called Zone of Alienation 1.07.2 released almost week ago. Lost Alpha fever made people blind so we missed it.
http://www.moddb.com/mods/zone-of-alienation-mod/downloads/zone-of-alienation-1072

Mod looks phenomenal and have good, not cheating AI and no bullet sponge enemies.
First thing spotted in changelog - it doesn't require patch 1.0004 for ShoC, now he need 1.0006 so no need to reinstalling game, just clean gamedata.

EDIT
Survivarum was that bad?

 

[Cazzeris]

I played Survarium beta yesterday and now I need something good related to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. to stop being depressed.

 

[Darklife]

Has anybody tried People's Soup? I bumped into it now and the thing seems enormous.

Anyways, this is supposed to be the repository for Lost Alpha:

http://dl.oblivionlost.pl/lostalpha/

 

[skacky]

People Soup/STALKERSOUP is more of a patchwork than anything else. It's fun but don't expect anything too serious.
I'll probably play that new Zone of Alienation version, it's one of my favorite mods and the changes sound really sweet. Lost Alpha comes first though (release it already!).

 

[helpimarock]

Anyways, this is supposed to be the repository for Lost Alpha:

http://dl.oblivionlost.pl/lostalpha/

No.

[Baron Dupek]

Considering the fact that composer name in OST is Rick Astley - it's fake.

 

[skacky]

Apparently that was just a test to see if the servers could handle it and to see how fast the upload would be.
By the way, here's the Zone map from the manual. It's almost exactly like the one in the leak.

Spoiler

 

[Invictus]

Jesus it is like the fuckup brugade with those guys, they could have avoided a lot of angst and uploaded the torrent last nite to various sites and then say "here are the links go for broke" but thinking that at least 20,000 Stalker fans could download 7 fucking gigs from their site I mean ffs

 

[Jick Magger]

I'M A VERY PATIENT MAN, DEZOWAVE.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Already woke up with hopes and what we got? Oh yea uploads! Of OST and manual.... what a progress...

Apparently, that link (oblivionlost.pl) is not fake, just testfield for dez0wave. Still - downloading from here is furtile.

Who will be first with torrent (with fake files or not) win the internet this day.

Red Forest? Isn't that thing from Clear Sky? I think that throwing all avaliable level was not intention of LA, only those from old Stalker builds.

 

[garren]

No Red Forest?

 

[skacky]

Forest is the Red Forest now, it even has the mine from Clear Sky in the leak. Radar is the old Red Forest from the old SoC builds, but it's full of garbage heaps instead of trees.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

I'm still kind of disappointed that the game can't all be fit on one seamless map, too many bugs related to a-life and all that I suppose... But here's hoping that it fixed SoCs linear-ass levels!
