Previous thread

First for killing myself because this meme is killing the bloody general.

Whiny bitch go back to california

I didnt think so either but some user told me it works because mutants have armor too. I haven't actually confirmed it desu.

I don't mind that the rarer mutants are tougher. But beefing up swarm mobs like snorks and pseudo dogs just makes everything needlessly harsh. they should be glassier if anything. Is it safe to edit their health values? I tried modding trader values once and it corrupted my saves.

Are there companions in CoM or is it just a CoC feature? Zone gets lonely sometimes...

F

you need to be friends with them

How does one obtain this friendship? Just Give them guns and vodka?

you need to be a chill dude, who others can rely on. after long and torturous road, you might find a nice and pretty gaybuddy (male) to join you and cuddle with you
tldr do quests, increase your reputation

I started playing radiophobia and it is so fucking good, i havent played a mod like that in a long time. Is there a way to activate the minimap in it though?

CS-3 a and b look alright I guess. The others look fucking disgusting.

What was wrong with the old ones?
And where did the vanilla CS light outfit go? It was my favorite.

MAKE THEM A DUTIERS NOT LONERS REEEEEE

>Babby's first arena

I always fight in the arena but just now I noticed that your partners are dutiers but they look and talk like veterans loners, in SoC they were loners in rookie jackets

That's just what you think

What the fuck did you expect

>freedumb

you want to tell me that in the vanilla SoC these 2 rookies are dutiers not loners?

I don't know but it's entire possible.

Serves you right freedumb scum.

what the fuck are those wandering black smoke clouds in CoC?

Just another poltergeist variation a pain in the ass to kill too even with a shotgun

Another form of Poltergeist. They shoot flames rather than pick up shit and hurl it at you.

Does CoC make use of CoP russian voice actors by default?

I've noticed a couple times where they say the cheeki breeki line, but it sounds veryyyyyy different.

Tried this mod from the other thread:
Graffsam's WSOAMBK mod pack for CoM

Lots of good little fixes but the news doesn't seem to work for me. Been fuckin around Cordon for an hour or so and no news other than the "Sid is looking for this guy". Do I need to increase the frequency or something?

this game
where is this stash? another bugged one? i walk around bushes but there isn't any backpack/corpse/box

check out the readme of this addon

...

how do you guys avoid getting 5 fps due to 200 man clusterfucks with Warfare?

Primarily by playing less shitty mods

Same, i never actually found it so it might be bugged. Some of the bush stashes are stealthy as shit though

It's in Russian... And even after translating it it's not making a shit ton of sense to me.

Turn the sun off.

the news are also in russian. why would you want news written in vodka runes if you don't understand them?

Is there a way in CoM to turn up the ambient light at night? I keep fiddling with my gamma and brightness at night and then it's too bright in the day.

x-18 maybe?
for some reason it's turned off by default, which makes dark places way more dark than they are supposed to be. type this in the console r2 sun_lumscale_amb = 0.8

r2_sun_lumscale_amb = 0.8 *

Weird it won't let me type a = into the console.

That's because you don't type an =

Well when I type "r2_sun_lumscale_amb 0.8" it says not found.

when you start typing r2_sun_lumscale, does it show anything additionally?

No, I'm using the debug console btw.

don't use the debug console, use the normal one

Disregard, I'm a tard. Was using wrong console.

Still in cordon, but it's pretty good so far.

The lack of a map is the only thing i don't like. I'd only use it for finding bodies, anyway. Maybe the dev will include it as an option in another patch.

just install any soc hud with a map

I translated them. I each file through a translator thing online.

I get this in the console with that mod:

"* loading script zone_news_vs.script
! [ERROR] --- Failed to load script zone_news_vs
* loading script zone_surge_news.script
! [ERROR] --- Failed to load script zone_surge_news

! [ERROR] --- Failed to load script zone_news_vs
* loading script zone_surge_news.script
! [ERROR] --- Failed to load script zone_surge_news"

Clearly you fucked them up when you translated them

is this the bulletproof cap stat?
thankyouverymuch

No, it's fire_wound

Thanks man.

then what's this?

Burn

It's burn _burn

what's the difference between the two?

CHEEKI BREEKI I V DAMKE

burn is burn, fire wound is firearms

i get it now thankyou

Yup, apparently the site I used got rid of a commas after every line for some reason.

I wish "stalker messenger" guy would come back and updated his stuff for CoC. Stalking can be really lonely sometimes. That brief time where we would shitpost in the zone between mutant hunts, artifact collecting and faction wars were super comfy.

this is what happens when russians try to do localization

You mean STALK-IRC?

is it working now?

"STALK-IRC is kill"
"no"

And this is why I got a trip

It is definitely kill though, no one used it

Strem when?
Shit hud when?
Soupsoup when?

Also what are some fun slavmods?

Maybe Tuesday
When my artists stop literally dying
Never, I realized I was making the kind of mod I usually whine about other people making

Pick a genre

I quit; I don't want to mod anymore. I don't have the will left in me for either modding or playing video games.

All it does is remind me of a time in my life when I was so bored that I had to something just to occupy my time.

You were extremely patient with me and I was incompetent as all hell.

i'll give you the succ if you finish the mod

in seriousness, it sucks to hear that.
good luck w/ whatever you're doing then

"Deep and meaningful storytelling"

STABLE
ZoA
WHEN?

I was just going to dick around with small mods like trade files, artifacts, loadouts, etc. but I just can't, I can't...

CoC was nice, it was nice to play stalker again, but fuck, it really cut into my practice time and I want to work on something good this year. When it comes down to it, I'm just too old for video games.

Actually I feel like I was usually kind of a dick, especially since I didn't know literally anything back then either
Wrestling with ZoA was a very valuable experience to me

Hoчь Пepeд Poждecтвoм
Пpизpaки Пpoшлoгo

Are you okay?

Thanks, I'll take a look at those.

Oh, and do you have a translation for the first one? I found Ghosts of the past from the list.

Nope, I gave up and put the vodkarunes version back in. I'm trying one more translate service then I quit.

>Are you okay?
I'm fine, I just don't have the time, or the patience that I used to have when I was NEETing and messing with video game configs.

>Actually I feel like I was usually kind of a dick, especially since I didn't know literally anything back then either
>Wrestling with ZoA was a very valuable experience to me

I let you be harsh with me because I needed someone to. If we don't accept criticism from people we end up like (certain other devs) with their special snowflake complex. Every person that ever insulted me or criticized me here told me something that was useful.

No, I can get one up if you want

What are some essential mods for a guy who's never used them before, but played through all the games? I'll be replaying SoC first, CoP later.

we have a massive fucking OP for a reason

where do i find inventory textures?
see:

It says out of date tho.
What are the recommended ones.

gamedata/textures/ui/ui_icon_equipment.dds

fuck off

Is there some other reason why it's dead, other than no one using it?
Just thinking if you would make it work in CoC it might at some date become popular if more people knew about it, as it really is a very nice idea.

That would be great

>tfw you saved FF's life and dignity by shitposting on a mongolian finger painting bulletin board
No need to thank me.
But seriously, I wish you well for your non-NEETings

JP-2 for SoC, REBORN Doppelganger 7.63 for CS, Diversant for CoP.

patrician taste right here

Thank you, one word of advice I will give is that life is work, and without satisfaction from work there isn't much to gain from life, even if it is Sisyphean effort.

No
Maybe if I shilled the shit out of it on ModDB and >reddit it would last longer

I'll do it within a few whiles then

be honest, do you own a fedora? or at least some sort of trilby

Where do I get Diversant and what does it add?
And JP-2?

>be honest, do you own a fedora? or at least some sort of trilby
lol no, but thanks for the joke.

>Maybe if I shilled the shit out of it on ModDB and >reddit it would last longer
One thing that I have learned with promotion/PR, there is no shame at all in being absolutely shameless. Shill away.

The repos are out of date
The picture is fine

jp2 is in the repo
stalkermod.ru/MODYI-Zov-Pripyati/stalker-diversant-gibrid.html
Diversant is basically the best CoP overhaul you can get. it adds a lot of immersive stuff and improves every aspect of the game. one of the must play CoP mods

>stalkermod.ru
You're a bad person. ap-pro for life.

Is this Stalker Chat thing what I think it is?

A festering corpse? Yes
