[Sammelthread] S.T.A.L.K.E.R. / S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2

Stop NPC's XRay Vision - ABER,.. NPCs laufen wie ein haufen aufgeschreckter Hühner durch den Wald. Ob es nur an dieser Mod liegt oder vielleicht auch mit der Verbindung zu NPC Overhaul hab ich noch nicht weiter getestet. Aber dann lieber paar Hits durch ne Bunkertür als wenn Gegner nicht wissen woher geschossen wird, weil sie einen (gar) nicht mehr "sehen".

NPC Overhaul ist dafür verantwortlich das die Zone verdummt! Würde ich zurzeit nicht benutzen. Das macht ja gar keinen fun mehr!!

Hab endlich OXA Prototype Mod korrekt am laufen. Also das Waffen Upgrade System is der Hammer!!! Lauf der MP5 geändert von 9mm auf .45 für leicht mehr schaden. Nen längeren Lauf auf die Ak74N geschnallt für mehr Damage auf Kosten von Handling. Die Overhaul Mod die mir persönlich grad am meisten Spass macht. So macht die Zone nochmal richtig richtig Fun und looten wird wirklich erforderlich sowie arzt besuche !!! Klare empfehlung zu OXA Prototype!! persönliches rating, 1. OXA Prototype, 2. Stalker Infinity, 3. Modular Hard Mod. Leider ist MHM zu Flawless Widescreen und Weapon Reposition Project incompatible weswegen die Mod für mich wegfällt auch wenn sie wirklich klasse ist!

Spoiler: 1.5 Patch Notes

☢️ Highlights
A-Life changes
Life in the Zone is now simulated for all characters, not just those in the player's view.
Characters continue to live their lives and pursue their goals in the Zone until they meet their end.
The player can meet the same stalkers after some time.
Players may encounter more A-Life characters resting or interacting in various locations, adding to the world’s immersion.
Characters will no longer respawn directly in front of the player. When the player clears the mutants' lair, for example, those mutants won't simply reappear moments later.
A-Life Director will no longer respawn characters at the edge of visualization. Instead, respawn moved further away from the player, while maintaining the Zone's population.
Visualization range is slightly increased. Characters now appear in visualization range with relevant animations and equipped weapons. This reduces the "pop-in" effect and contributes to a more seamless character visualization.
Added new anomaly: Water Electric Tornado.🌪️
Added Three-Line Rifle weapon.
Added new handgun Kora.
Added the new feature: looting of mutant parts.
Added displaying of available artifact slots for armors in the Upgrade tab.
