    **** SEVA Suit Texture Fix ****

The SEVA suit in the STALKER SoC game has a mismatched 
texture reference. The _SEVA_SuitTextureFix files are 
meant for use with the SoCPUP utility to extract and patch 
the file to correct this issue.


The files needed to do this are:

_SEVA_SuitTextureFix.bat
_SEVA_SuitTextureFix.patch
SocPUP.exe

SoCPUP is available separately if you don't already have it. 
See below.

-------------------
Credits:

The original fixed SEVA suit OGF file was supplied by MrSeyker. 
The fix batch and patch files were made by NatVac.
The SoCPUP utility is a subset of bardak's converter, adapted 
by NatVac to support resource extraction and patching.

-------------------
NA and WW versions of SoC, retail and STEAM:

Folks with North America and World-Wide versions can use the 
batch file as is.

-------------------
Russian version of SoC (not tested; should work):

Folks using the CIS version need to add the "-2947ru" option 
to the SocPUP extraction command line in the batch file, 
like so:

SoCPUP -extractx meshes\actors\hero\stalker_scien.ogf -dir gamedata gamedata.db4 -2947ru

The SoCPUP -patchfile line does not need to be changed.

-------------------

If you have write permission for the STALKER SoC directory, 
you can use Windows Explorer to put those three files 
mentioned above in that directory and then double-click the 
_SEVA_SuitTextureFix.bat file to make the change.

If you don't have write permission, you can make an SoC 
subdirectory in your Documents folder, copy STALKER SoC's 
gamedata.db4 to it and then put the files mentioned above 
in the same directory.  Then double-click 
_SEVA_SuitTextureFix.bat.  Drag-drop the resulting 
gamedata subdirectory over to your SoC installation 
directory and select "Overwrite" if/when prompted.

NOTE:  If you don't have any other mods, you will need to 
change the second line in fsgame.ltx so that it looks like this:

$game_data$   		= true|	true|	$fs_root$|		gamedata\

You will be changing any false on the line to true.  Extra 
spaces are optional.

The SEVA suit will now use the correct texture in the game.
