Couple of questions if any one can help ..

If I use the Stalker complete 2009 for SoC can I use the weather overhaul mod at the same time ? And is that a good addition to the vanilla game ?

Out of all 3 stalker games which one is considerd the best to play and with which mods ?

Love this type of game but like to play through once with the best exsperience I can get :)

Cheers ..

It'sok now i found this thread which answers my questions ---- Stalker worth playing = Marmite but Ye

I have only used the 'complete' mod for SOC and Clear Sky. Imo and in my experience, I would say I enjoyed SOC the most. Just finished CS using the complete mod and I didn't enjoy it as much as SOC. Still a good game though, by a long way. The third game I liked but not as much as the first two, it felt spartan and unfinished (as I have to admit I find Stalker generally like this anyway), but I have only played that one through once and with no mod.
 
Same here. The first just seemed much better.

Also missed things like the Bar in the duty base from the first. Much better than the weird bars in CS with the same rubbish music playing on repeat.

I tried to play the third game but it looks dreadful. You can even see where textures join, like big grids :(. Hopefully the complete mod will be ready for it soon.
 
Just started up Clear sky complete and started a new game on master difficulty, I forgot how good some of the gun fights can be. Just tried to take control of an area with some allies during the night. My allies took a few down and then got wiped out and left me one on one with a guy wielding a hunting rifle. I crept around for a few minutes trying to sneak behind where I thought he was only to be blasted at point blank range from behind and killed.
 
^^...and the next time you restart your save game you will probably find what happens is more or less totally different to the way it was before. :) That's what I like about Stalker and the X-ray engine, almost an organic feel to the game. You just don't feel like you're the only one out there. ;)
 
Yeah I thought SoC was much better than CS and even CoP. CoP has that sense of 'ok we learned from our mistakes and listened to the community' about it, but it's still somehow not as good as the original.

SoC is an amazing game and completely unique. It's a special ********* and one of the treasures of PC gaming.

I think thats partly intentional and partly because loading a save game severely screws up everything the AI was trying to do in the first place...

Been having some fun on OL SoC without rifles. Got the TOZ hunting shotgun, which is excellent even if i got it at the very start of the game from the trader, a modded Combat Chaser which, while having higher accuracy, isn't as accurate over range as the TOZ, but does have a bigger clip and semi-auto fire for close encounters, and a lovely multiple grenade launcher which came in VERY handy when i returned to Bar after ****ing Duty off in Army Warehouses and had to kill half of them AND 2 Controllers that were attacking the Duty base and wandering around the area turning people into Zombies before i could reach Barkeep to pay to calm Duty down...
 
I've just experienced my first save game crash.

I had to sneak out of the laboratory because i run out of ammo, and as i cross the bridge with the 2 guards on and go to enter the next area, it crashes on loading it. Gutted. 14hours down the drain

if i can't get it to work, i might give up on SOC and start on CS.
 
I think I know which part that is. I crashed there too. Went back to an earlier save and it went fine the next time round.
 
I've tried starting from an earlier save, still in the dark valley but before i actually leave the base and make a run for it. It still crashes when i approach those gates and tries to load to the next level.

If anyone has the 'bring the documents to the barkeep', then please let me know. Thanks
 
Have you tried going into the hole again to load a different level?

If you are using Complete 2009 have you tried ESCAPE to the main menu and pressing J to warp to the exit of the level?

Madness, in any STALKER game you have to make a new save every 5 minutes, do NOT rely on one save, I have around 120 saves in SoC

Huh? Seriously how unstable is your pc? The game autosaves it at the start of every area and you can quicksave it every 5 seconds if you want (though it could really do with more than 1 slot. Only time i've had a corruption is when the game crashed mid-save.

I have had the nice experience of trying to run STALKER when it just came out, now with V1.0005 and Complete 2009 it is stable though but I still don't trust the game enough to rely on an autosave only.
 
Need a bit of help here. I'm going through Clear sky with complete mod and i've been exploring the Agroprom research institute area, I went into a hole guarded by a few Duty people and can't get back out. The way I came in is too steep to climb back out and there is long corridor covered in flames. I can make it back and forth through the corridor without taking too much damage but after climbing a ladder I come to a locked door :confused:

I have a few earlier saves but I've done a lot since then.

Got myself out using the teleporter option by pressing F1 at the main menu :) , Hope it hasn't buggered up that mission later on.
 
Been playing SoC Complete for a while now. I only game off and on so games can take me a while. I've played through a couple of times but this is the first with Complete + the Weapons Mod.

Really enjoyable game all in all. The faction repair option and teleport options are a god-send. I killed some Duty guys and then when going to the Bar the Duty on duty :) kept shooting at me which meant killing them caused eveyone at the Bat to start shooting at me. Couldn't work out what to do so had to wait until night time and sneak passed them.

Once in the bar I got the barkeep to pay them off :)
