icewindo 29 Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) Stalker Units 0.5a ported by Icewindo ==================== Description ___________ Contains Units for ArmA2 converted from the PC game "S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl" of GSC Gameworld with their permission (see credits). Changes to the models were done in the following: -Created named selections for animating the units -Added blood textures -Added Several LODs -added models with ArmA2 heads The units will animate in general ok, but as they're completely different models than stock ArmA2 and as a limit of my skills, the units will look funny from the side when kneeling and have stretching issues in some death positions. So, consider this a WIP release. Also keep in mind most of the models rank only 3.5k polys (with added ArmA2 hands, ex. head) while a ArmA2 Russian Soldier has 7.5k polys (ex. head). Still, they look pretty cool imo. See a video of them in action at Namalsk (great place to play with these units): ==================== Screenshots ___________ http://www.pixentral.com/pics/1r2Yjf95uIGeCqo5Pt7GlrOJeoR1.jpg http://www.pixentral.com/pics/1PuWUeAIEkFjha7HkZTQ7fdBxLJ1Z50.jpg ==================== Download: ___________ V 0.6a (new release @27th July 2012 - needs Combined Ops) - replaced Stalker and military hand models with BIS ArmA2 arms so the arms should animate better now, legs will strech though as I didn't change them - added glass rvmats to the scientist, military and stalker models for nicer look (see pics) Mirror 1 http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=9795 Mirror 2 http://www.armedassault.info/index.php?game=1&cat=addons&id=1300 Thanks for these mirrors :) ==================== Installation ___________ Copy the pbos to the modfolder of your choice, start the game. ==================== Credits ___________ GSC Gameworld - Permission to port based on this quote: "According to Anton Bolshakov the project manager, on 2007-05-29, GSC grants users rights to modification and non-commercial use of the game content.

icewindo 29 Posted March 9, 2010 Thanks guys glad you like them :) they are fuckin shit hot them mate, we gonner see bandits and the different types of stalker models like the guys with bandanas an hoodies an stuff? Yep probably, I'm working on the models one after another in no particular order and timeframe. If you would like to change the order I'm open for suggestions :p . So far I converted: Scientists (SSP-99M) Stalkers Military Stalkers (Bulat) "Noob" Stalkers/Bandits (leather jacket, current WIP): which leaves out: Spetznaz Model (basically bulat, but more advanced) Exoskeleton Mercenaries Clear Sky Armor Light and Heavy (this one has more polys than the usual stuff, but also resulting in more time to spent on) SEVA Suit Leather coat For pictures see: http://stalker.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Armour http://stalker.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_armors_in_Shadow_of_Chernobyl Any chance of putting these on Ofpor and/or Blufor so we can use them with the Undead Mod zombies. :( Hm, might change that, as a quick workaround just create an BLUFOR unit and set it's possibility of presence to 0%, then group all Stalker Units to it. This way the whole group will appear as Blufor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerdave 56 Posted March 9, 2010 Awesome! The selections are a bit off, particularly with some of the gear, you should try and keep most single objects (such as the pistol, where this is most noticeable) in a single selection. There's also a slight issue with the headgear, which causes it to become detached from the torso. Any chance of weapons? I'd kill people for the LR300.
