Is it worth creating a remaster? (S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl)

I write in my opinion. Of course not. And now the question.... How do you want to create a remaster? You're going to get your mods and call it a remaster?
One is already trying to make a remake on UE 4.

In general, will use their own developments, and even if you have to borrow the work, the authors of the original modifications will be mentioned in the description. In general, the main goal - to use ONLY their own work, not to do banal repainting of textures in the peer, and try to fit the new content in the framework of the original game. If the new content does not fit into the canons of Stalker, then it is removed. It is planned to improve the game both graphically and gameplay. That is, to add gameplay features that simultaneously fit into the game, and were able to surprise seasoned players. And of course to tighten up the schedule. And fix the bugs of the original game, while not creating new ones.

Nonsense. It's not a remaster, it's a sock. You'd drop this case. Not now, you'll leave later. And if you make such plans, first you would work for something, then show, or ask the opinions of others. And the wrong forum is for such topics.

Oda, how many more will be riveting these remasters, in many resources, already lie all sorts of packs of graphic fashion, there is nowhere to improve, and there are unofficial patches that correct the bugs of the game one example of ogsr engine or an unofficial patch from the author of the lvg_brest, remasters already abound, every pancake year one and the same.

Who only did not do these remasters.

No

do not take on impossible tasks without having a budget, a team and serious experience.
It is better to do something modest, but your own, on what you can earn.
Pi promote the product as "Spiritual Heir stalker", peel your own, similar assists, make the product budget, in the spirit of indie-development. But take the time to something authorial that can shoot if your hands grow well. (and if not - what the is remaster?)
Shorter... Why work for Grigorovich's glory? (to then go to his work?)
you can try to become someone as well as yourself.

But if the goal of "remaster" is not to make a game, and to go to friends, unwind you-ute channel or eventually get a job in gamedev - then for God's sake. But why ask for an opinion?)

Naturally!

If it turns out at all))

one mean, stupid

if I am sure that the remaster of your work will not be silenced by the rights holders, and is ready to spend time and nerves, only then...

Do you think the first person to think of this? ))
Only others have already done, or rather tried. Twisted Dx11, OpenGL, pictures in 4K. But.. all these insinuations invariably rested on the dvigun. If it was possible, it would have been done long ago. So, if anyone will make a remaster, it is the PYSH itself, on the new engine. )

A good remake is needed on the new engine. Remaster does not rest at all, already there is a bunch of mods, you will not surprise anyone, unless of course you modify the engine to some X-Ray 6.0 where there will be a cool graphon, physics, etc.

You can't do one. You'll drop it in a couple of months.

Do you want me to go to you a rimsir?
Do you have experience, time, desire, team, etc.
TAGDA DON'T BE RIMISTIRA ((((

I'm looking forward to an official remake or remaster series from GSC in the near future.

You think they'll do. The original is not particularly outdated in terms of graphics, and with mods and generally keeps a beard)

As for the topic of the forum, again what is the point of doing something new, already made a bunch of mods on the graphics and more. It is only possible to update the list of references of houses, trees and other static objects, and just a seamless zone to do that is quite real but it is difficult, I already have developments on this topic, even can snuggle up can but hz whether I will finish it if soon a new part, the question is debatable ...

Pretty much out of date, especially the range of rendering, and even in the AP it is quite terrible. Animation again. And in general. Maybe after the release of Stalker 2 will think about such a prospect. On the other hand, if they have plans to continue the stalker to do, then like to and not too necessary. )

If everything was so simple it would have long been created, although so there is a huge number of mods that pull up including graphone, not to mention a ton of original mechanics, features and chips that add to the game, moreover, a bunch of mods with its plot and quests.

What was the point of asking, if you can take and do, your work will appreciate as well as a huge number of global mods.
