S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Mod Suggestions Wanted

[Ravepkz]

For Clear Sky I would recommend http://www.moddb.com/mods/arsenal-overhaul-clear-sky

FYI Arsenal Overhaul 1.2 comes with SRP as well as Atmosfear which I heard some people mentioned in the chat. As well as bunch of other nice changes, I used it my self in my recent playthrough.

Hi

As a huge S.T.A.L.K.E.R. fan I highly recommend Misery for Call of Pripyat. Complete is only really good for Shadow of Chernobyl (although i do prefer Autumn Aurora), but Misery is a truly fantastic overhaul for CoP. It does make the game harsh, unforgiving and realistic , but it's so incredibly detailed and fun and the looting is just amazing. My favourite singleplayer fps experience ever for sure and when the new version is released I will definitely start from the start again.

I can't really tell for Clear Sky as I only played it once, with Complete, which was not bad, never tried out other mods for it though.

As previously mentioned by a lot of people, I suggest a GREAT mod for Clear Sky, Arsenal Overhaul. Doesn't touch on the vanilla experience that much, except adds new weapons and ammo types. Also comes with a graphical and sound overhaul. Everytime I play through Clear Sky, AO is a must for me!

PS. Sorry me no first language englando

I'd suggest OGSM for Clear Sky. http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-clear ... 014-gereng

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat
I would highly recommend playing COP with the misery mod on, it has a complete graphic overhaul and raised difficulties to which if you want to add the Armed Zone ( latest version ) as a weapon pack for the game it makes an awesome experience !!

For Clear Sky, my recommendation is to try this combo: http://www.moddb.com/mods/srp - for bugfixing and a whole bunch of stuffs, lengthy changelist included in the link, basically an community-patch. http://www.moddb.com/mods/atmosfear-for-clear-sky AtmosFEAR, for some more atmosFEARe, a series of mods for each Stalker that makes the weather more atmosFEARic. Then, absolute series: http://www.moddb.com/games/stalker-clea ... ack-for-cs abs nature makes the Zone look better by improving textures of ground and foliage; and http://www.moddb.com/games/stalker-clea ... ack-for-cs - abs structures is a mod that significantly improves textures of buildings and many objects. Im pretty sure AtmosFEAR and Absolute mods work together, SRP is 90% bugfixing patch, so it should work with these - didn't test it though. Of course some item-adding mods could be applied on top of all that, as these mods are mainly eye-candy, texture work and bugfixing. As for the Complete mod mentioned above - it is a bit outdated, and doesn't really do too much. OpieOP ;]

[MEDIA=youtube]LzB1MY8tpHw[/MEDIA] This youtube link leads to a mod called Call of Chernobyl . From the video i understood the mod itself combines all 3 stalker maps. You could look at the extra mods he used to refine CoC. This could be something for anyone who is just looking for an open world game.

Hi,

First let just say I know I'm no one and I know you'll probably question my advise.

I would really advise you NOT to play Call of Pripyat using Misery. Don't get me wrong, Misery is a really good mod, but the EXTREME (trust me, it's even more than that) difficulty, the huge change in aesthethic and the general changes this mod makes create an experience that is completely different than what the base game is supposed to be.

I'd suggest you play the game vanilla. Call of Pripyat is actually pretty stable compared to the 2 other games and is actually very polished by itself.

Here was a message writing by a STALKER fan since 2007

New to the Cohhilition, but my knowledge about S.T.A.L.K.E.R COP is based on 3000+ hours of misery playtime.

****** ABOVE ALL ELSE COHH NEEDS TO KNOW THIS; DO NOT USE QUICKSAVE IN MISERY, IT WILL CORRUPT YOUR SAVE FILE *****

Misery mod is ofc a must:
http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-miser ... misery-211

Then i would HIGHLY suggest this scope altering mod, since misery base scopes is almost nonplayable:
https://mega.nz/#!10AWRbJI!FwSgv1s_fggp ... mqloxzgUlU

The armed zone for a better variety in weapons and some much needed balance changes(atleast until we see misery 2.2):
http://www.moddb.com/mods/misery-the-ar ... ll-version

Absolute Nature 4. Adds alot of variety to the world(more trees, insane blowouts), multiple options for every zone(everything is chosen when installing mod) and some VERY needed optimization for the world:
http://www.moddb.com/mods/atmosfear-for ... e-nature-4

Whatever you chose to do, DO NOT install AtmosFear it will break your game. It became a part of Misery Mod since 2.1.1

If you should chose to follow my suggestions, everything is installed in same order as posted. NO MERGING NEEDED.

I want to help Cohh pick his class for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat MISERY

Cohh was talking about wanting to pick Assaulter but I know he really likes to sprint not only carry things.

for one the MISERY_GameGuide http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-miser ... game-guide is a really good thing for him to read. it is not filled with spoilers or anything it lets you know how the mod works. ex: you cant just go into Anomalies without the right equipment to do it. no amount of skill will help. you will just die.

but back to the classes

Assaulter - has the most carry weight - has the least Stamina and Stamina regeneration (you can carry a lot but your not going to be running)
Sniper - is the middle ground in all things carry weight, Stamina and Stamina regeneration also has a skill that allows him to regenerate stamina when he’s jogging.
Recon - has the most Stamina and Stamina regeneration - has the least carry weight

but in the end all of this needs to be looked into in the guide to fully understand how it works in the mod because stamina itself is 100% different then the normal game.

So, I was exploring the zone and I just so happen to run into Cohh!

Lost Alpha starts well, adds some interesting lore but then steadily declines into a bug ridden face palmy mess.
Pro: Controllable vehicles, intro -> first half of game, longer overall because of much bigger map.
Con: buggy, ghosts o_O , fantasy in place of sci-fi, poor ending, tedious.
Disclaimer: I haven't played lost alpha in a few years, maybe they fixed it?

Misery I'd vote against too, sure it makes the game a bit more difficult but at the cost of a lot of tedium. The huge changes to artifacts is not fun for me to play or watch.

If you could make Complete more difficult I'd say use that. It makes the game prettier, fixes some bugs, eliminates some tedium all in one easy to install package. However it does make the game easier.

I just did a normal playthrough of them all with Complete installed and quite enjoyed it. I also jacked up my carryweight to 900 because I hate inventory management :p However I don't need a game to be brutally difficult to enjoy it, I play most games on Normal->hard rather than the hardest difficulty.

As cool as Stalker VR sounds I've tried watching VR stuff on YouTube and twitch and just can't get into, I (and probably most of your viewers) don't have VR so can't relate as well.

My vote: Go vanilla with bug fixes , or hardest difficulty Complete mod.
