Thanks Chode for the heads up on this.

GSC/THQ have finally released a new trailer for the much-anticipated S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl (the first official trailer in almost 12 months). It comes in at 43MB, and shows off their DirectX9 renderer in a night-time environment. There is also a low resolution 8MB version for download.

GSC's Comments:

The DX9 renderer is shown in all its beauty (although in the future we will show this functioning in full outdoors and in daytime). Lighting is all dynamic – even each blade of grass casts a shadow from any light source.

Combat AI is demonstrated - team actions, accurate reactions from the sounds of characters other beings, accurate reactions from the grenades as well as the AI ability to evade gun-fire and grenades, camping skills as well as ambush and group attack.
