Previous thread

Gunslinger when?

I've somehow managed to kill 60-some people plus another 20 or so mutants in CoC ironman without dying.

Also that "switch to another stalker on death" mode is really cool and I remember me and a lot of other people were asking for that when it first came out.

First for Freedom

i almost finished the main "questline" on ironman
got to the war lab and got killed there

What is the story mode in CoC actually? I only just saw that they apparently added something a bit more than just turning off the brain scorcher.

just visiting the main locations of the previous games and picking up some documents and clues
and turning off the brain scorcher for good this time

7th for shitting up the thread with a cute Gardevoir

8th for random STALKER-ish photo

9th for an actual picture of STALKER

10th, for love blossoming in the Zone.

...

...

13th for chikiest of briki

...

s-stalkerchan..

15th for dead tanks, lying in wait

16th for NATO stronk!

youtube.com/watch?v=3LcnXgvIF6U
uh
lads?

17th for comfy checkpoint

fuck off

kill yourself

Might not even be a thing since it's not officially announced yet. I think it looks pretty good though. But maybe that's just me always wanting a Roadside Picnic adaptation of some kind. I don't get as angry as some people at some of the stuff big TV shows do.

fuck you

We know.

out of memory, remove warfare

fug

you can reload your last save and it will work but sometime it will crash again and again

I did this for awhile but it just made the game not fun to play.

> Disaster in Russia

For you younglings who can't remember, Ukraine was part of Russia/USSR when the Chernobyl disaster first happened. CCCP didn't actually break up until 1991, 5 years after.

Do people still play DMM or has everyone moved on to CoC?

Is there any other link to download Call of Misery? The mega link is just horrible with having to wait 4hrs between every 3gb or so.

pastebin.com/Fj3KrdHK
ap-pro.ru/forum/119-89305-1

Okay dudes, how do I make money in CoM? Every dog is a potential death sentence with the starting armor and I'm getting desperate.

Are there any tweaks that make more of the traders buy trinkets/junk items? Right now only Sidorovich does it.

I'm using some Russkie mod that makes traders give you discounts based on your rating in their faction or something, and also seems to make the traders only buy certain shit (Barman only deals with food for example).

Alright lads, post your primary/secondary.

M4A1/Mav 88 Predator here.

Pretty sure Barman only sells/buys food in CoM by default.

On a scale from 1-10, how fucked up is the process for making custom maps and porting them into STALKER/CoC?

how do i get into strelok's stash in joint pak 2, the hint is gibberish, the guides I find show distinct portals

this is completely retarded

Skinflint at the Army Warehouses also buys garbage.

Steal mutant carcasses from the Dutyers at the Garbage and Rostok barricades. Look for big battles between factions and loot corpses.

selling garbage is a garbage way to make money
do quests, get artifacts, loot stashes, sell ammo

What is the most A E S T H E T I C armor in the game and why is it pic related?

SKS/Mossberg 500 Short

Are anomalies any more dangerous in CoM? I have avoided even getting a detector yet.

I want to get fucked while wearing a poopsuit

Not sure if some of the armor in the addon pack for CoC are original or from other games but I think this one looks cool. Looks kind of like what some people in the Metro games wear.

>poopsuit
uh

Kill bandits, collect everything except guns and sell. Guns weigh you down, get you killed. 100kg of gun gets you about 8000ru on a good day. Loot a sawn off and start killing mutants.

SKAT-9M aka the Poopsuit

The helmet appears to be a derivative of an Altyn helmet, very iconic in Russian armed forces due to its use by Spetznaz and other elite units.

bm-16 obrez and skorpion
anomalies types - what you need for them to make money efficiently:
gravi/electro - gasmask
chemical - good helmet/seva/chem.pills and-or multiple gravi artifacts
thermo - seva-tier suit/ssp. good thermo/grafi artifacts wouldn't hurt to have

You absolute piece of shit.
English was a mistake.

so was calling the military suit a "skat-9m" hueHUEHUehuheuHUE

electro clusters might have psi-field around them (like that one anomaly at the Garbage), so weed/psi-block + ssp-99 headgear (can savescum without it though) and you're good to go

I think it's from a Russkie mod, but I sell broken guns to stalkers. Thing is, they usually only have $3k on them tops, so you end up bartering back and forth, assuming they have anything worth buying from them.

mosin & mosin obrez

Currently rolling with a Worn Dragunov and a sawn off TOZ.

Yes, im playing CoM+stcop. Sue me

>Yes, im playing CoM+stcop. Sue me
wat

I keep getting fucked in the ass by the download limit in the mega, even tried my VPN and still couldnt even download the 6.7gb for 1.0d CoM
where else can I get it from? The addon page in moddb doesnt have it

Download and learn to use Megatools. I had to do that last night as I got to the limit too. But downloading through Megatools you don't have a limit. I had to import the files I wanted into my own library of stuff to do it but you can remove them after.

It's a command line interface though which can be annoying.

megatools.megous.com/man/megatools.html

get the torrent you dumbfuck

...

Okay now I know there's a memory leak somewhere in the current CoC patch. I ran it vanilla for a few minutes with the default settings and get a stack trace.

Stalkers won't take broken guns by default as far as I can tell.
I need that first push to get a decent set of armor and healing items before I can start doing any of that effectively.

>download limit

what?

exactly the same

moddb.com/mods/call-of-chernobyl/page/108#comments
see paun201's comment with the same error

if you arent using 7-zip to unpack the archives+patch, you should.

other than that or antivirus or win defender or updates like you said, no idea other than what i suggested


mega tools
megatools.megous.com/

even looting stashes requires decent set of armor and healing items?

what exactly does noprefetch do?

How the fuck do you kill a burer in CoM? Bullets seem to do nothing. Already have weed and psy-block.

the same way as in vanilla. wait for his telekinetic block to go off and shoot. grenade launcher works nicely

It doesn't pre-load (pre-fetch) every single item into memory. It only loads what's necessary for the current areas. Helps to avoid the program spilling over memory-wise.

it is a command/flag to not load items contained in the prefetch_files
like weapon models, textures, etc etc into memory for faster access.

Don't waste ammo when he is using his shield thing that will only extend it

wait unti he stop using that and then you can shoot him

is it a 100% fix or will i still get crashes?

son, there are no 100% things in the x-ray engine

You'll still get crashes after running the game long enough. It cuts down memory usage, but the X-Ray engine still has memory problems like Java does. You'll need to restart the game every few map changes.

I have no idea what I'm doing, what should I download? What is even going on?

Alright, I found the download, but all the command lines close as soon as I open 'em

Within the week. Expect an announcement on Wednesday ;)

just download it from somewhere else
see

yeah I did that, but there's the other addons on the mega

Crashing at the bar.. why?

Im using amk 1.4 OWR. I remember a few years ago I had the same problem, soon after I cross the bridge to the bar the game breaks. I know theres a solution, does anyone remember?

I agree. glad to see someone ain't a sheep here

Not interested in installing misery and have a good mod combination already. One problem is that I really want the ability to get baked as a brick. What can I do? is there a standalone ganja mod or can I safely rip it from misery?

github.com/utak3r/SoC_utAMK/blob/master/config/medic.ltx

add the section, if it crashes because of the .ogf
use a valid one.

you should be able to rip it
you need to add it into items.ltx, other tables (such as debug spawner if you need it), equipment.ui file and most importantly effectors or something like this to add the effect

Sounds good. Thanks for the heads up. I'll post a link to it when I get it set up. Don't hold your breath. I may just go out of my way to make a full mod itself.
"You ever see how big the zone makes plants? I've seen them with my own eyes. Stalks as big as my head and buds as big as broccoli."

dud weed lamo

don't forget to add it to trader files
add multiple variations too. like a cheap bandit weed bag, an absolutely nuclear freedom weed bag etc

Run the shell. "megacmd.bat" then put in commands there. Just import it to your MEGA in the web client, get a direct link to it and then type in "megadl linkhere"
(I haven't used it myself yet but I'm pretty sure this is how it works)
