The Float32 modification for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernoby has been released this morning, which beefs up the already impressive graphics in GSC Game World's first-person shooter. This mod adds full reflection vector calculations, better bump mapping, real specular effects! All this detail improvement costs nothing in framerate and you will get 20% better framerate than before if not more! Shadows are soft and no longer jagged and the overall graphical quality has been vastly improved.



You can grab it at 3D Gamers my mirror, please post your results in the comments.

#66260 Posted on: 04/27/2007 06:04 AM The guy responsible for the instructions did a pretty poor job of explaining how to install this "MOD" considering the importance of this. I am a little confused myself, as, if you simply unpack the zip file to the stalker directory, all you will get is a folder named "FLOAT32_4247_036a_RELEASE" and I can bet my bottom dollar you won't get it to work doing that !!! He does not explain what to do with the USER.ltx file. This should be located under "C ocuments and SettingsAll UsersShared DocumentsSTALKER-SHOC". No point putting in the stalker directory coz it ain't gunna do nothin in there. And using his does nothing but screw all your existing key bindings, graphic settings etc up anyway. I gave it ago and can't see anything different. I tried various directories for the files and followed the same guidelines I have used when installing other mods which BTW have worked. So I am guessing I am not doing it correctly either. Unless of course its just a crock of SH$T Maybe someone who can write instructions properly should explain it.

#66261 Posted on: 04/27/2007 03:07 PM I did exactly the same as you did and...with no positive results at all! And I think that I agree with you in one thing too: It's a crock of SH$T! Thanks anyway, man! Best Regards!

#66262 Posted on: 04/27/2007 08:34 PM Ok. I've spend 30 minutes trying to install this mod. Actually not to install, to run the game. First you have to edit in fsgame.ltx this line $game_data$ = false| true| $fs_root$| gamedata second one should be true. But after starting game I've received error that my X1800XT doesn't support shaders 1.1 So I've looked again in readme.txt. And found last line on bad Russian. ------ Вы для помощи и поддержите! Вы будете большой помощью к общине разыгрыша! --------- I can translate it to simething like this: You should help us. You will be helpful for public joke! _______________ What do you think about it?
