DefiantDucky @ DefiantDucky's Freedom Redux 1.0

hello, you have my word that majority of the content i have provided has been optimised and had massive size reductions. however i cannot promise you won’t see any negative performance hits. From my own experience it was none to minimal with all packs added. But i can’t say the same for yourself. honestly up to you. i would personally make a back up of your gamedata just in case. sorry i couldn’t help much. As for stutters you may see this on models that are meant to have bumps but the game will sometimes recognise them, other times it will auto generate them meaning a second or so stutter, unless anyone has had any other problems im yet to hear of.

no worries my friend, the new version should be fixed however that will be up to those reporting any further issues but the troublesome file has been modified since. thank you for getting back to me though.

the bumps and THM’s are kinda funny. one minute the game registers them and other times they dont. again i wouldn’t be knowledgable on how they would work on 1.5r7

i’ll be honest i have not, when i’m not at work or finding an excuse to procrastinate i will take a look. the models and textures shouldn’t be an issue too much, i think the military redux uses a texture.itx and clear sky models are plagued with issues since on all version last of CoC clear sky was heavily altered on all codes and scripts. so i’ll start with them.

Thank you my friend, I will attempt to compete your requests for bandits and monolith soon, i have some ideas just need to be confident with a set one for each before trying anything.

I am honestly not sure this only affects the faction models and NPC’s so unless outfits
addon does something to those characters I wouldn’t know sorry.

PS: after many restarts, resets and re-installs, the Freedom Redux is on the horizon. From now on any updates from me should be auto optimized and play tested. Many thanks.

Sorry to interrupt the great work going on, got updates from my work currently, I would recommend anyone using my military and clear sky redux mods, to please update the newest versions, HEAVY REDUCTION in file sizes. talking 10mb to 600kb on multiple files, better performance and no visual loss to quality. Special thanks to AMCJeep for showing me the optimizer program. It's certainly helped!

DefiantDucky @ DefiantDucky

hey thank you! I'm not sure to be honest, the uniforms in CoC translate to which model wears them and I am not sure which outfits correlate to an NPC model. I will be making a 1.4 Military Redux soon as the texture need compressing and I have found some great variants to add to the list

DefiantDucky @ Dаntе

Hello Dante,

I was wondering if it would be possible to use your amazing work to make some faction models for a COC faction redux project I am currently undertaking. Obviously you will be credited and linked to.

Sincerely,
DefiantDucky

DefiantDucky @ S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Chernobyl

Hey guys, I have two problems and wonder if anyone would be able to help me on this?

first, currently working on textures for models, I would like to compress the .dds textures but have an issue, GIMP - program I am using, does not detect the existing mipmaps on some of the models and when I compress it breaks the texture. Is there a workaround for this?

Second, one of the models acquired comes from a very old mod. Have all the textures and everything but whoever made it has stuck an eye texture on top of the stalkers head, I have no idea how to remove this.

Good Morning S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S! I'm happy to release the Duty Redux pack to you all. All credit and work goes to Azetrix, I'm 100% confident I will never have to work on duty models since these are amazing. I will be working on more factions and even start a collection of models for the loners. Any issues on 1.4 CoC's feel free to comment or message to work on them.

DefiantDucky @ DefiantDucky's Mercenary Redux (1.2)

1.2 update: Removed all broken models and replaced with new ones: source of bad optimisation by original creators or use of shared files caused missing textures and other problems.

This has been fixed to ensure a much better, coherent and working model pack which will not cause any problems. Further model variety and texture overhaul coming soon!

1.42 (Functional) edition has been released, I have compiled all the known fixes for 1.4 crashes and errors that people have submitted. In hopes of nuking any potential problems and having a stable base to work from again. Please keep up with the comments as I am reading all of them and checking all known workarounds.

YES I am back, packs and more coming soon, first of all fixing clear sky.

Interesting, I will be looking into this, which file on the redux is bothersome? the nebo_h.dds shows up fine my end, ive noticed a lot of the textures and models from Clear sky in CoC and mine are ported from clear sky game itself. Directx 9 shows minimal graphical issues however directx10-11 seems to show faults.

they should be fine with STCoP, they're just textural and mesh models for COC, they dont interfere with script so I don't see an issue

I have an small idea for duty, thinking maybe Russian gear with red autumn camo, similar gear to the Russian paratroopers from MW2
