Ipak ponovo radi link sa Skydrive-a

Posle malo odmora za mene! - u Stalkersoup-u He. He. stavio sam nove fotke u Stalkersoup folder na BalkanZona-Stalkersoup folder

I tu je jedan mali update:

Quote :

Update
The new fixer/population control system is 100%...

Sorry for the wimpy npc and lack of respawns, these are all improved in next patch.

I was rewriting the amk respawner and while working with the smart terrain I discovered another really bad implementation.
I beleived the comment in the smart terrain that sim statistic was required for it to work. Turns out that sim statistic was just filling ram with useless unused data that was there just in case you wanted to print it...
I seperated sim statistic out and made it an option to see if the game would run without it and 'happy happy joy joy'.
Not only did it improve the speed but I just tested Priyat and at max settings I came in UNDER 2gig ram committed!!!!

There is a bad spawn in the LDK in Dead City which will cause the abort alert in game, this breaks the Collector progress, fixed in next patch.

If you get a message while playing saying that your save file may be corrupt then you should note the number displayed and report it to me. These numbers are imbedded during the real time loop and pinpoint exactly where the error ocurred.
Thanks Testers, without your help I would not be so close to Release!

Ps. Odlučio sam, da ču da uradim jedan poseban topic za instalaciju stalkersoup-a!, koji če biti sa svim linkovima do raznih fajlova, a na pitanja ču odgovarati ovdje!!.

bandits Taking many shots to the chest
Found an issue causing npc to be able to keep getting shot in the chest and not dying.

When you shoot a character in the arm or chest he bends from the hit or goes down on a knee...

During this animation those areas of the body will ignore a second hit until the animation is over. One to the chest and one to the head, for now...

This animation was added by myself and dAVROs so it is most likely just a setting that is wrong, will get with dav and figure it out..

109926 is almost ready, several quest fixes/tweaks and much better balanced damages and immunities. Both damages and immunities in NS were totaly scewed and were the cause of so much tweaking in weapon configs that things are way out of balance.

Someone without ANY knowledge of the inner workings decided they could compensate for the weapons by adjusting damages beyond their range (> 1.0). All this did was saturate the firepower/impact calculations which gave unpredictable results.

I have created a base that is the correct range for both npc and creatures, I also made all npc and creatures impervious to radiation, one of the reasons for wounded and dead all over as they had no healing power against it.

I am testing now and am very pleased, when I tweak a value it really shows, this is what happens when things are in their proper range. Now it is easy to adjust them so that a true balance of power can be acheived.

Sorry about the week npc last patch, since they did not have complete damages and immunities they had areas of the body that were not protected at all.

Nova zakrpa če biti u četvrtak!

Quote :

109926
Talked with dav and read your comments...

I will post this patch on thursday, it will not have inventories done. the reason is that dAVROs is creating a flow/tree structure of the levels/storyline. This will establish a way to determine what inventories are appropriate based on level/gameplay. The inventories will be created based on this concept and should satisfy everyone.

My new immunities/damages/conditions changes will be in this patch. A totaly new respawn system that has 100% control over ALL respawns and fixes them prior to building the all.spawn so that they do not need compensation in game. I have reduced memory consumption in the heap by another 64k and stopped another blind cstack causer.

I have played from start to the radar controls without one crash, period. I will continue playing until I have returned as the Collector. Once I have a stable mod up to this point, dAVROs and I will fix/tweak the final portion of 'level 1' the Collector start. The transition from 'level 0' (STALKER) to 'level 1' Collector is going to remain the way it is, we will just make it more cohesive.

I am going to wait until a later patch to do a final solution for the few quests that hang and need a reload so that I can focus on the final parts of NS which have missing peices of code to create.

Ako nategnete kintu za MP3 plejer, a sigurno hoćete, obavezno ga kupite kod matorog Sida, a ima i FM radio. Evo moj video.

Kunem ti se da sam pomislio da će na 0:07 posle onog efekta da krene ,,My name is" od Eminema.
Ovo sa MP3 plejerom je jako dobra stvar. To je pogotovo onima kao što sam ja bitno zbog krvopija i sličnih mutanata i situacija. Ovo me je dodatno kupilo za mod. Samo bih voleo da je HUD malo moderniji ili drugačiji.Ovaj me previše podseća na ostale modove.

Imaš u tom folderu: gamedata\sounds\ogg_player\flash_1 do flash_16!

@sadd jel TB mijenjao nesto oko .ogg podrske za xray? Koliko se sjecam im zavrzlama oko toga da se ubaci novi zvuk u xray, nije plug'n'play. Ja sam prije konvertovo sa foobarom iz mp3 u ogg i mijenjo sa nekim free hex editorom header tog fajla da bi radio unutar stalkera. Sjecam se da sam ubacivo sirenu iz Silent Hill-a da se cuje kad ce Blowout.

Evo i Freedom radio

@Tony
Pa barem tebi to nebi smeo biti problem.Svi zvukovi se moraju odraditi kroz SDK, a ti imaš iskustva sa njim.To sa hex editivanjem nije rešenje.Za svaki zvuk je potrebno zadati određene parametre( čujnost na daljinu, vrsta zvuka i tome slično).Prvo trebaš zvuk sačuvati u .wav formatu i to obavezno u mono verziji (44100Hz, 16 bit).Potom ga ubaciš u folader rawdata\sounds.Otvoriš Actor Editor (može i LE), pa ideš na Sounds\Sound Editor i onda edituješ zvuk, zadaješ te komentae.Ako ne znaš kako da stavi parametre, možeš videti pomoću jednog malog programa OggComment kako ti parametri stoje kod sličnih zvukova iz Stalkera.N kraju samo pritisne OK i sačekš da odradi konvertovnja.Kad se ukloni prozorčić, znači da je zvršio.Konvertovan fajl u .ogg formatu ćeš naći u \X-Ray SDK\level_editor\gamedata\sounds.
Ako je u pitanju stereo zvuk, onda mora da se radi zasebno levi i desni kanal i dodaje se na kraju naziva _r za desni kanali u _l za levi.Kod CoP je podržan stereo zvuk pa ne mora da se deli na kanale.

@Кровосос
Koliko ja znam, mislim da TB. sam - ništa nije radio oko tog pitanja.

i jedan uvid o tome na kakav način bih trebao da radi Stalkersoup preko interneta! - kad če bit dovršen naravno.

it has to have a special server system to support it, does not use the simplified multiplayer hooks that gamespy uses. Actually you will still have the mp system for on-line death maps, my system is integerated into a scheme that gets attached to a 'surrobot' when someone joins your game, you don't join a server. You also are able to communicate with others with your pda even if they are not in your game. You will also be able to send email and text messages, a social network for the Zone.

Biće ovo dobro. Nadam se samo da će server biti malo bliže, ipak daleko je Amerika

Nije to bio problem!, več je igra tako urađena, da ako kročiš u onu anomaliju nekakve providne plave boje postaješ ozračen sa PSI efektom i poslije toga dok ne ozdraviš svi te vide kao da si jedan zombi!! i oće da te izliječe metkima
To isto se ti dogodi i sa kontrolerom...

Stalkersoup je pun dobrih fori i ovo je jedna od njih, i zato mi se sviđa. Jedina zamjerka koju imam je da exoskeleti ili neka druga zaštitna odjela gotovo da i ne pružaju nikakvu zaštitu. Neke je stalkere teže ubiti sa kabanicom nego nekog u exo odjelu.

@flexerca
Baš na tome se sada ponajviše radi, jer kako sam več jednom ovdje rekao, da su nekada banditi u kordon-u mnogo otporniji na metke nego koji Duty ili čak Monoliti.


Ps. Mislim da če nova zakrpa stiči sutra uveče.

Nadam se da hoće, inače sve ostalo je ok....niti jedan chrash kako sam stavio zadnju zakrpu, što je vrlo pohvalno, samo da ne ureknem

@Svi
Jedan mali update o tome zašto zakrpa još nije stigla!

Quote :

Update
Hit a snag...

I have a log function that tells me the hit callbacks and other combat actions...

Problems found:
Because the physics is scheleton based you have to hit a bone, hit the body but not a bone and the hit returned is 'amount 0' and 'bone 0'. This is a problem as that is also returned when you shoot in the direction of an npc but don't hit them, like when they are behind a wall. This was compensated for with the weapons and that is why shotguns do not respond like you think they should and the spread was so tight.

Detailed bone callouts do not function. This means that sub digits like fingers and toes also get reported as 0/0 when hit. Presently the engine properly reports the head, shoulder, arms, legs and feet. All the other bone definitions were causing 0/0 instead of using the default which would return a non 0 value.

I am fixing the callouts so that this will not happen but I need to research the torso issue as shooting an npc on either side of the spine does not hurt him...

Sorry for not releasing the patch but I am sure you want this resolved first as it really is the main problem with weapons, armor and prtective devices.

Update
OK, I fiqured the bone stuff out, whoever did that part was way off base...

I now have ALL damages/immunities within 0 to 1.0, no more ridiculous values.

Created another new file, criticals.ltx. This file contains the critical bone groups for npc and creatures. Turns out that you must group the individual bones into general bone groups as the engine hit system returns the group bone index and NOT the individual bone indexes. For examples; fingers, hand, forearm and upperarm are the arm group, clavicles neck and head (face features too) are in the head group, spine, waist, tail are in the torso group and thigh, lower leg, foot, toe are in the legs group.

So far I haven't run accross any npc or creature that will die from a hit to the foot anymore. The carpark bandits though have their own settings that are meant to be more difficult to kill than normal bandits, this gives an unrealistic battle as they can take more shots to the chest.

To improve things there I increased the bleeding factor, that means that if you shoot him once and then split, he will bleed to death unless he finds a medkit. I found this to work very well with the carpark and adds more strategy to the battle.

Be careful with wounded now, they react better to wounds and can FAKE it or apply a medkit and get back up.

The drop weapon when hand hit works well except for the fact that the npc will re-equip instantly if he has another weapon. This is probably something that will need better logic scripts so it will be awhile til it's improved.

I am testing today and should FINALY post the patch.

Da vam kažem, da i ja čekam tu novu zakrpu i u međuvremenu radim na programu, koji če da automatski pravi update za igru, kad mu uz njega staviš zakrpu od TB.-ja!.
Jer mislim da če još malo potrajati da dođe do 1.1.0.0. verzije igre, a da bude i za ostale malo lakše koji se ne snalaze baš sa svim tim zakrpama!.

Quote :

Update
My new criticals.ltx works like a charm!

Still need a little tweaking but now with these files: 'immunities,damages,condition,criticals', it makes this much easier as it does NOT require a new game. Changes made take affect at run-time when the creature spawns because they are no longer contained in the creature.ltx file which has many settings that only take at game start.

I have lost track of the number of fixes at this point but there are many.

Speed and reduced memory AGAIN...

Many of the berserk ai issues were actually respawn characters or monsters that just should not have been there. I cannot test the whole darn zone before releasing the patch but so far:
Cordon starts with normal game creatures, no embankment soldiers yet, only the bridge. Some creatures will not be there yet but will spawn as time goes on. After you return to Cordon from DV then the embankment soldiers, bandits, stalkers and creatures will start respawning but have absolute limits to insure NO overpopulation. Still testing the graduation but so far it has kept up a steady pace of surprises.

I consolidated many of the startup processes into one that has cut down loading times more but I don't have a figure for you.

Testing until I hit at least Pripyat to insure the new respawner is working 100%

AGAIN a WARNING: GPS, more than a few labels will corrupt your save, not sure how many as it is a variable string of tables. If you start getting startup crashes and have several GPS labels then you should try going back to before your last GPS drop.

Update
Having 'loads' of fun...

Have played the start umpteen million times! I finaly know what is wrong in DV escort, captive immediately kills the lead guard on spawn while the other guard is still initialising so he misses the whole thing. I am trying to figure out why this happens but it may take awhile to figure out all the logic involved.

Got the bones all mapped and now understand the hit group mechanics. It is pretty good, someone mixed up on the order though and had the right arm and left leg groups crossed. I have the engine producing all 43 bone hits properly. I had to write a logic script for a bandit that made him stand there and take shots without reacting while issuing hit events. I could aim at each finger and get the right digit number.

One drawback to the engine though is that only the upper spine bone is used for armor calculations. I have an idea though..

Since I know the groupings and can reference what the armor is then I could replenish a percentage of your health and stop any bleeding. You would still get the hit animations but would recover quickly until the armor wears out that is.
I can even tell if your arms and hands are protected as well as those that have waist and leg armor. This could be incorporated into the helmet and glove system as they have 90% of the work already done.

Another innovation: Have been talking to dAVROs last couple days and I think we have settled on a way to really randomize load outs while attaining the game play balance that is needed.

If it works as planned then an npc will spawn with the ability to be armed based on level/rank out of a weapons pool. The weapon chosen is automatically paired with the right ammo. Of course we can't just go nukem dukem with them but for sure that means at least a 1 out of 5 weapon choice per npc based on community/rank/level at spawn.

This also means that each time you spawn it will be different.

Kada će otprilike 1.1.0.0? U kom periodu godine otprilike? Zima, Proleće, Leto, Jesen?

Mišljenja sam da ako čekaš 1.1.0.0 da bi igrao,grešiš.Evo već skoro 2 meseca igram,naš drug sadd pomogne u slučaju nekog grđeg problema i sve,manje više,ide OK.Poslednji peč 9.9.2.5 doneo je neke loše stvari (po meni,mada vidim na forumima da ima igrača kojima ne smeta nešto što meni ne odgovara),ali s obzirom na veličinu moda i kol'ko ljudi radi na njemu,kako i očekivati da bude sve upeglano!?Sećaš se šta je dr.sarajevsky (gde je taj čovek?) pisao kad je počinjao NS https://stalkerbalkanzona.canadaboard.net/t17-2009?Ovo sad što imamo je pesma.

Čekao sam od Oktobra, čekaću i još koliko treba. Znam da je već sad to dosta dobro ali dajem ljudima još prostora da srede šta imaju jer će sigurno biti neke nekompatibilnosti u sejvovima do 1.1.0.0.

sadd, još jedno pitanje, kad ćeš da otvoriš onu temu koju si pominjao za pomoć oko instaliranja stalkersoup i ostalo...?

@MarkedOne8
Stalkersoup - 1.1.0.0. verzije je trebao da bude urađen do potkraj januara!(bar je takav plan bio u početku decembra), ali je u međuvremenu TB. pronašao greške u uslovima za pogodke u tijelo, ruke, noge, i glavu, uz to ima problema sa funkcijom spawn-a ljudi i životinja!, jer zasad ne radi još dobro onaj njegov "rank-level-spawn" sistem! - i zbog tog sistema igra je več mnogo lakša nego prije (manji rank - manje anomalija).

Ustvari, je uslove za pogodke/povrede več sredio sada zbog toga treba da se promijene sve postavke (za jakost/udara brzinu/metka/ itd.) u oružiju i imunitet u odijelima!.
Sa spawn funkcijom je tako, da je u prošloj zakrpi bilo tog previše a sada u poslednjoj ima odviše malo spawna, pa se i to sada sređuje.
U takvom modu se uvijek kada nešto središ pojavi drug problem , koji je bio sakriven odmah iza onog prvog!, ali zbog prvog nije ni došlo do drugog(CTD-itd.) i tako se ti to non-stop....
Kad bih znao tačno kada, rekao bih vama!, ali kako je rekao jednom purke62 - uvijek se nešto događa u takom velikom modu!

Posle toga kad sam obečao tutorijal, pomislio sam da bih možda bilo dobro da napišem jedan program za automatsku ekstrakciju igre, zakrpa, bin foldera!, taj bih program uradio sve sam odvisno što bih bilo stavljeno pored njega i što več postoji u igri! - sada sam na oko 85% gotov sa njim!.
Pa bih postavio tutorijal, kad dođe nova zakrpa i kad budem gotov sa njim!

Moram da kažem, da od svih koji me pitate stvari(pomoč) oko Stalkersoup-a, Sunday je najviše odmakao u igri! - po mom mišljenju oko 55% Stalkersoup-a(NS.-Zadatki) zbog toga samo hrabro unaprijed u nove pobjede!!.

Jedan mali update sa Steam-a

Quote :

Update
I finally completed the respawn/population control system and have taken over all respawns. Turns out that only the vanilla SOC portions of the all.spawn had respawn conditions, rest were full bore on all the time.

There are a few of these respawns that are needed in quests that I have not tested yet. The marsh controllers, bar controllers, hogg's chimera and not sure what else...

Only a new start will get 100% of the new respawns as many are in the all.spawn and get modified by me while being written to the all.sav.

Respawns created in script will start using the new system and now I (and dAVROs) can add unique respawns to the other levels including LDK in free play mode.

Another trick I have added is a respawner toggle that will change what respawns every few game days, no more memorizing where and when things will attack...

Lovin the ai now that all the alife parameters are in the proper range for the engine, made a HUGE difference.

Created another config file, 'perception.ltx'. This file contains the parameters for the ability creatures have to hear sounds. Now creaures can have different abilities, npc should have so so hearing while dogs should have acute hearing...

I will test two more days then I will post 109926, it is crucial for the advancement of this mod that as many of you that can should start new. The whole mod has taken on a new level of performance and feel.

New Game
Why is this one so important to start over on?

90% of this mod is based on respawns and only 5% (vanilla SOC) were properly defined. This means that they just always respawned no matter what and this has been caos for me and this mod.

I now monitor and manage 100% of these respawns, even those in the all.spawn. I can stage them, mix them up, and create a very randomized alife now. I even change the mix every other day to insure it is never the same. This is key to the future free play levels as it also provides DYNAMIC respawns that can change each patch or be downloaded via the 'live-pda'.

Many things have been fixed as well, too many to remember so I will need help finding the ones I missed. if it weren't for tester submissions I would never be where I am today. With your help we can get to 1.1.0.0 real soon and start expanding.

Vidim ja da će 1.1.0.0 uskoro. Biće to super.
