The Zone [RELEASED]

The Chernobyl NPP melts down, and creates the biggest nuclear power disaster in history. The area surrounding the disaster area, herefore referenced as "The Zone" is created after the immediate threat has gone. Mutations begin appearing in the local wildlife. The military takes interest in the area and begins investigating, sending scientists to take reports. In 2006, the C-Conciousness or Common Conciousness is created, and attempts to fix mankind's war issues. This fails and affects The Zone, creating mutants, anomalies and other events begin forming within The Zone. Artifacts are formed, which are normal items transformed by radiation and other elements, which contain supernatural effects such as weightlesnes, protection from elements, and of course emit radiation.

The C-Conciousness also builds up massive amounts of energy, which it releases in bursts known as "Emissions" or "Blowouts." These affect the weather within The Zone and cause anyone caught outside of cover such as a house, to be immediately heavily wounded, and lose their minds, creating "zombies". Most Stalkers, after the first blowout, were wary of this and rarely did anyone lose their lives to these unless very far from cover.

Unfortunately, in late 201X, a huge emission burst out. Not even those seeking shelter survived. The mutated creatures ran or died off, artifacts became increasingly rare, and nearly every Stalker except those in very deep shelter became zombified due to this emission. Stalkers now rarely leave their deep cover, and trust eachother even less, the only life other than the mutated wildlife, being zombified remains of previous Stalkers roaming The Zone.

First off:
This map is PVP / RP focused for the moment as I'm looking for someone who can create zombies and item spawns for me.

Work will continue on this mod as always. It's been a long time coming to this update, but I had to redo countless amount of work after the last update had broken the map, and I lost the Gas Station, Antenna Complex, Swamp and some other stuff. Now it's all been redone, a lot of terrain has been redone, terrain materials have been redone to be more accurate.




The map has been updated plenty and is coming into mod support as well.



Update as of 5/7/17: Added light mod support. These mods may be supported. Please tell me how the game works both with and without the mods and report any errors without these mods. Thank you.






Lax's Military Mod (Spawning BTR's and some other stuff. Not completely installed. Not sure what I'll do with NATO stuff.)

I'm purposely keeping the number of vehicles very low even at full release, as there are no vehicles in STALKER without mods. Enjoy!



Only one mod absolutly required (SPY'S)



Areas fleshed out include pretty much everything, I still have some terrain making to do around the "border" area of the map, and the skybox areas. I am also STILL looking for someone who can do item spawns and zombie creation, possibly paid depending on your previous workings. I'm good at details and mapping, not spawns and whatnot. DO NOT FRIEND ME FOR THIS. Please leave a comment in the "Applications" section. You must have done serious work in the past, not just that you "want to help."

I will also be adding mod support, but this will always only REQUIRE Spy's.

Please do NOT edit or reupload this map, be it for public or private reasons, without first consulting me. If your wishes are small I may be able to implement them in the official version, and if they're not just ask me for permission first. Thanks!
