>proper OP edition

2nd for thnx for proper op

riperoni choppa

not even looking to see what this pic is of

Cute. A cozy fire.

...

anyone else get this wierd pattern sometimes, i think it might have to do with SSAO/HBAO

I've never played any mods for any of the STALKER games, where do I even start?

depends on what game and if you've finished them

I just installed AMK and it freezes in the very beginning about halfway when talking to the trader, I cant seem to find anything online about this. So what do I do?

I have the fix in the gamedata folder for 1.0005

did you do the -no prefetch thing?
I've heard people say it would help.

No, I have no idea what that is. What is it?

I did, it said nothing about that

>using 1.0005

y tho?

>I didn't read the readme's


bruh

dunno why he's using 1.0005, but if it works for him then whatever.

I have it on steam, I got it a while ago

IIRC, AMK uses 1.0004 (the versions i've played, at least). but it probably differs depending on the version.

Check the readme's for the mod and see what version it says to use. if the downgrade isn't included there it should be in the OP.

I remember getting this in SoC. It has to do with some setting with the sun/how shadows are drawn. I think it's an r_something value.

Seeing the thread this quiet makes me sad. It feels like STALKER season is just starting; it's raining more, nature is turning towards fall, it's grey, you can finally wear a leather jacket and feel comfy...

yep, can't wait.

if you are referring to the soc/amk shadow bug where you can input
r2_sun_near_border 1
r2_sun_near 20

it's not that, the shadows are fine, but in some areas, it's like there is an overlay on the screen. but there really isnt. fuckin wierd.

i would just blame it on Absolute nature but i swear it had this even before adding AN.

thanks for the input btw

Oh, I think I get what you mean. It's like there's a sort of light greenscreen effect, and the stripes appear under it, static no matter which direction you look?

That sounds like it would be the shaders, but what do I know. I know what you're seeing, though.

yeah pretty much like that, initially i thought it was some screwy textures, but it stayed with the screen when looking away at other stuff (it was most noticeable on dirt/gravel, bricked areas like in the ss i posted.)

either way just irked me, i'm going to try hdao next time i fire it up and see if it still happens.

Which mods are you using? I've actually found that SSAO error on most of the shader packs I tested on my system.

I edited the shaders manually to get rid of it.

Why not?

Well, it's going to be a fun ride the next time the game decides to spawn something a bit stronger than your usual pack of dogs since nobody is guarding the entrance anymore.

'Wonder how I'd go about changing my sleeping bag texture to something... custom.

prop\prop_mattress1

Is OWR better than AA3 and STCOP? Balance wise I mean.

It's literally vanilla balance, that's kind of the point

But vanilla balance SUCKS COCK too. What's the point of this fucking mod then?

lol

>STALKER season is just starting
nigga its 90 degrees on the regular where I live, almost no rain, and it'll stay that way into September at least.

CoC?

STCOP is underwhelming
>dude have 10 types of AK's
>most of them are exactly the same, just different colors
>AKM is OP as fuck though

It's the same in all the games unless CoC changes it for some reason. Either way it should be in prop\ somewhere

>lel

vanilla balance is like hammering toothpicks under your nails

CoC changes some things, I've browsed the install directory for like 10 minutes now, I'm probably retarded.

You have to unpack the dbs bruh

CoC is shit

sounds like AO, and so many think AO is for mouth-breathers...

>not joining Monolith and enjoying the challenge of taking over the zone

AA 3 or STCOP?

There's an Autumn Aurora 3?

Any mods that work for toasters besides AMK?

Anything that uses mostly vanilla textures

Ded game

>gas mask eyepieces are sad

>not liking emotional gas masks
Stop posting any time ⭐

...

>all masks have circular glass
Nigga you stupid.

lmao yeah the manufacturers hire artists to portray strong emotions on their safety devices

Sid dialog crashes are usually patch version mismatch. Just drop to 1.0004 and play it that way instead of fighting it with 1.0005.

the mod is hosted on moddb

>lost alpha torrent is dead
>having to download 3gb from mega

CoC sucks.

...

uguu

Do any of you cucks have an issue with pulling up the Steam overlay in SoC?, it just won't come up.

Immersive posters

>using steam

I would tell you what the problem is but anyone who says "cuck" deserves to be gassed.

it helps to disable it since it uses up RAM and disabling it can prevent memory crashes

More like you don't know shit about how to activate it, cuck.

CoC 1.4 FUCKING WHEN?!

i remember it working but sometimes on new playthroughs it doesn't. I dunno what triggers it.

Doesnt really matter to me, i rarely use it.
BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE FRIENDS ANYWAY.

After gunslinger is released.

check out this proprietary software (sorry, SERVICE) using cuck

>hurr le slavshits le slavshits xD
>let's play a slav game doe :D

kill yourselves

I like the word "cuck". It's a very nice and quick way to show someone as incapable of critical thought or forming personal opinions. Read: you.

What's this about >LA:DC soon.

I haven't noticed any thing new on the ModDB page.

>someone has an opinion
>YOU DON'T HAVE AN OPINION SO YOU'RE A KEK!

Nothing, and who even cares

AKs are poorfag, unreliable, inaccurate, shit weapons. Surely you don't use them right?

RIPIP dude

Remember that old image that went
>but it's an alpha
>but it's a beta
>but they'll patch it
It's pretty much the same just instead of patch, they call it directors cut. Otherwise it would imply it needed fucking fixing. Their proposed changelog doesn't really spark an interest though.

What a excellent way to showcase how you are illiterate.

Go read a dictionary.

what the hell was he fighting

Garden variety tushkano

Daily reminder that if you play as any faction but bandit and monolith you're a fucking casual.

>literally start off with a rocket launcher and trillion weapons because teammates are walking into anomalies and getting culled by mutants: the faction
>not casual

what's the difference desu

>a excellent
pot meet kettle

>Delusional
>Shit, got no argument on getting call out on muh bullshit definition, better criticize dudes grammar instead.

I take back the dictionary part, return to the fourth grade instead.

Lost Soul is good and least slav but still very slav.

>implying i'm him
good cuck :^)

>Implying you are not
Nice one.

everybody on the internet is a cuck by principle, especially on Veeky Forums
let's see how you both contributed to making a difference
