maybe you didnt unpack all the files
becuase russain labeled folder or watever

try re-extract without confirmation, then repaste

or try deleting user.ltx , though i dont think it will help.

or possibly corrupt download. just an afterthought

They can be anywhere

Change renderer_r2 to renderer_r1 in user.ltx

I love this game to death but jesus fuck is there any way to fix these crashes? They happen every 15 minutes. I'm running on a perfectly good computer.

agreed

My bad, haven't really been in this general much before. Also, pretty sure Call of Pripyat is the actual game and Call of Chernobyl is the mod. Anyway, here's the back end of my log.

Read the instructions.

VRAM
Or you're just playing a shitty mod. Or both.

Which instructions? Do I need to manually allocate more VRAM? I'm running a 970.

You still haven't said what mods you're using.

Did you install CoC in CoP's directory?

Arsenal Overhaul, with the versions of Atmosfear and Absolute Nature that come with it. This is all running on the Steam version.

I can already tell this part is going to be pretty aids with all those snipers.

Atmosfear is a buggy piece of shit.

I cannot get CoC to run with an extracted + edited actor.ltx/system.ltx - I've tried the "solutions" on the moddb page (twice) and it's still fucking me over.

Anyone with a modified actor.ltx/system.ltx wanna upload it to mixtape.moe or pomf.cat pls?

Should also mention CoC is updated to 1.3.20. Trying to play with Master difficulty and Loner faction.

Either you really fucked up editing it or there's a conflict with a mod.

All I did was modify for carry weights, exactly the same as SoC. Nothing else has been changed/added.

I've reinstalled Autumn Aurora 2.1 to play with FDL and now all my saves are returning this crash

Expression : fatal error
Function : CScriptEngine::lua_error
File : E:\stalker\sources\trunk\xr_3da\xrGame\script_engine.cpp
Line : 73
Description :
Arguments : LUA error: ...f chernobyl\gamedata\scripts\treasure_manager.script:344: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

I've tried various clean installations and still no luck. The saves that load (made in the CNPP) are corrupt and don't let me use items and crash.
I'm trying to load the ones made in Pripyat and Red Forest.

Yeah good luck using anything but autosaves once you get to Radar. That's AA2 for you.

Well, I tried loading the autosaves and those -start saves that the built in ZRP does, all returned the same crash.
Even my very first save in the Cordon is giving this fucking crash.
I've checked manually that the script file was correct (in the archive, I don't really trust installers), AA has always been version 2.1
What the fuck is going on

Oh. I didn't think you meant reinstalled mid-playthrough.
That is not a good idea.

I just checked, it seems 2.1 was updated in 30.09.2015 but they they didn't change the version number.
I probably had the version before that and now it's gone for good. Also, the repo doesn't have the previous one,
Guess I'm fucked.
Still I'm gonna mess with files from 2.05, maybe I'll pull some magic.

Oh. I have a copy of the '14 release. Go read a book or something while I upload it.

Really? Nice. Thanks for that.
I'll be waiting for you to post a download link then

Fixed. They need to be from \patch\xpatch_01_config.db not \config\config.db

Obvious once you realize it's there but I didn't..

Next question (which will probably also go unanswered)

How the fuck do I reduce/disable the weapon bob + sway in CoC? I'm used to SoC with its superior static viewmodels.

What's the best weapon mod for CoC? I played arsenal overload and didn't really like it, are any other ones better or is AO as good as it gets?

>get ideas for a mod adding some rare monsters and night-time encounters to make CoC a little spoopier
>no idea how to actually do it
>unsure if some of it's even possible to implement

Can someone sum up for me what Call of Chernobyl is like? I've read the stuff on the ModDB page but would like a good tldr from someone who's actually played it.

Basically, you choose a faction, and you walk around every map from all 3 of the games doing stalker things. That's about it I guess.

There's also submods for CoC (i.e. weapon mods)

mediafire.com/download/r38608q491fbz1r/Autumn Aurora 2.1 Old Edition.7z

Nice attitude fuckboy.
puu.
sh/qPdbr/d8357c923f.zip

STWP

Cool. How's the compatibility with AO3? I've been playing with it and I quite like it.

>puu.sh shit
No thanks

There is a merger on the moddb page in the addons section, it works well as far as I've experienced but I personally didn't like the mod.

Thanks user, that's the mod I was gonna try next. How is the balance compared to AO3?

Alright, nice. How about things like Absolute Nature, does it work with CoC?

Yeah, there's also a merger for AN somewhere on moddb. I personally haven't tried it but it should work.

>Killing the bloodsucker was easier than killing the 10 military dudes in front of Strelok's stash
>Stuck inside Strelok's stash with an AKM with 17 rounds and a silenced pistol while I hear Ukrainian voices shouting outside

But there's a pile of ammo inside a box in the stash m8

There is? I need to look harder, thanks for telling me before I ventured out and got massacred. Agroprom Underground is spoopy af and I'm too distracted making sure I don't step on an anomaly or getting spooked by the noises and claustrophobia.

>tfw I had to break the boxes right in front of me but I was looking for some sort of box you can interact with
Wew lads, I'm fucking retarded. Thanks again.

Does CoC not have any spawns in X-16 or X-18? Both were completely empty (minus some static loot). I was looking forward to being spooked again.

It just occured to me that this is a good example of how games have changed (and changed us) for the worst.

Instead of doing something that would be natural/obvious we've been taught to always seek out some sort of interactive object in order to continue or get what we want.

Just a thought.

They're adding lab spawns next patch

First encounter with a controller

I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD I'M NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND AGAIN

Idi ko mne

Thanks for the AA 2.1 upload

Retard

Thanks, stalker! How's Agroprom underground and that other underground area I can't remember in CoP endgame?

>I'M NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND AGAIN

Good luck with that if you plan on completing the main story

I was told this game was going to be fun.
I was told I was going to be fine.
Now I'm on the middle of a military base surrounded by soldiers and with a terrible aim.

I'm having fun, tho

>Now I'm on the middle of a military base surrounded by soldiers and with a terrible aim.
Agroprom?

>he expected everything to be daijoubu
kek get rekt faggot

Yeah. F6 and F7 are starting to get worn out

Aprogom has snorks, poltergeists and controllers in few places. Dont know about jupiter underground

Not sure what daijoubu means, but I'm not complaining. This is some masochistic fun but still fun.

>Not sure what daijoubu means
get the fuck off my site

>Everyone has to be a weeb who speaks japanese to be here

wew lad

Alright then
>Shoot the alarm siren (on the main building's top)
>Get inside one of the houses (or go inside the main building) and lure them inside.
>Use the entrance as a bottleneck, their numbers will mean nothing

Also, if you think that Agroprom's underground is scary, prepare your anus for X16. You are going to need a fucking diaper to play trough that.

For some reason after installing STCoP WP I get really long load times in CoC even with -noprefetch I played with AO before and it loaded a lot faster. Also the engine sometimes stops working during the load, and I'm not sure what else I could do.

Thanks user, didn't know you could shoot the siren. Also, the only part I found scary was that fucking controller that was right behind me, the rest was just spooks

And X18

No probs m8

> that fucking controller that was right behind me
Then you are going to love the Poltergeists at X18 they are invisible and make objects float around you teehee

CoCk 1.4 when?

So I'm reading up on CoC right now as I'm wanting for another go at Stalker after a while, and from what I understand, it basically serves as a foundation upon which you're supposed to put other mods, right? So if I'm not entirely inclined to do fuck with that shit and would just play the base CoC, how much would I be missing out on? I've read that some areas are missing monsters and shit, and that the world feels generally lacking in content, and that it's basically a huge sandbox with not much to do in it. How bad is it really? The only other freeplay mod I've played was Faction Wars for CS, and I quite enjoyed that, is this something similar just without the factions or the wars?

fuck off

Thanks man, you have a nice day too.

Fucking NEVER

>Retrieve data from X18

I don't want to do this. Please Zone Jesus.

Why not? It's fun :)

>Everything going to shit outside
>Everything depressing and dead outside
>But the 100 Rads is still comfy

That's why you play Stalker alone, in complete darkness and at night, with a pair of good headphones. And a bottle of the cheapest and strongest booze you can find. You need to become one with the Zone, embrace it and indulge yourself in to it, then you shall not fear anything, because you will be the most frightening thing in the Zone.

I wish the hub areas had more charm like Metro's did. That's the only thing I like about it over the stalker series.

Yesterday I finished SoC, and now I'm going for Clear Sky. I have a question tho.

How spooky is Clear Sky in comparison to SoC?

after you kill yourself

X-18 isn't even hard. Jesus Christ nigga, grow a spine.

Not as spooky, also more action going on but less dangerous overall due to all the friendly/neutral camps. just my 2 cents

FREEDUMB FUCKING SHITS

Б.A.П addon has those

It'll be way quicker if it's released after you stop being a huge faggot. :^)

jupiter underground has a shitload of snorks, some zombies and a couple of tushkanos here and there
