Im only at the beginning and this mod looks really good- the pistol sounds are a kick-asz, night is dark and beautiful (new skyboxes), sleeping bag, vehicles and more. (thanks for JochuaC for the heads-up)

But Im having some issues- rain gfx artifacts (not all the time), the first night was dark but the 2nd and 3rd, after sleeping, were...hmm.. days. Sun and all.
FPS Slowdowns- like the nividia vram bug I never had before.

Patched to 1.0005. Mod 1.2, patched to 1.22.

I dont want to ask the devs cos it seems like the guy is going breserk everytime someone sais he's having trouble with his mod.

I'm having troubles too, and frankly the attitude of the dev has led me to the opinion that they're cock suckers. It's going to take a lot to turn this notion around :rolleyes:

Try pumping up the detail level, AA I believe.
There was a similar sort of problem when the game came out, maybe its been inherited !

So, anyone know how to kill Burer, that damn ****er is looking far to much like a levelboss to my tastes... If there is ANYTHING that turns me away from a game in an instant, it's levelbosses:mad:
Wasted ALL of my ammo on him, and i cant get out of the door. I've read something about being susceptible to light in the PDA but there is nothing i have that makes light except for my flashlight and that only seems to attract its attention, instead of doing something bad for him.

At Joker, if you look into the inventory, you'll see a clock showing the time... That way you can see how far away from the night you are :)

Pretty good mod till you get to Burer. I promptly deleted the mod and reinstalled the game with the 1.0004 patch and have fakaies mod or something on right now. The mod is okay but I'm probably gonna delete it too and upgrade to 1.0005 and just install the smaller mods I want.

I look at the clock, why else would I expect a night when the sun is up?;)
Anyway I think its ok now. I loaded a save and all was dark and well.

About this burner, Im far from it- but Ive read somewhere you need to use an artifact. Check this vid and look at what the guy is doing- its right at the start- the mod allows you to manipulate artifacts in a way the vannila didnt.

And if you figure out how'd he do it, let me know.

Apparently you do use artifacts to kill him. To activate the artifacts drop them into the pistol slot. I'm making my way through the game again and I'll let you know if I kill the Burer.

Hi guys I haven't been on this forum as of late recently and I have only reinstalled RO after a very long break!. I really enjoyed Stalker. Yet for some reason my collectors edition disk cracked. I can still play it however but I believe its on its last legs. I really want to play this mod. Its sound great. Worth getting it on steam again?

Try a no CD crack?

Its perfectly legal as long as you have the original discs - which i should mention before the ****ing do-gooders jump on my post.

here to kill your monster
As dcode says unless of course you find that patching the game removes the DVD/CD check anyway- that is sometimes the case, can't say myself cos i'm playing v1.00 because the saves are incompatable with patches.

I am absolutely in love with stalker, even though ive only travelled to 2 areas sofar. I'm a bit of a pikey in these kinda games- searching everywhere, stealing/scavenging everything I can and trading it to raise more and more cash ( which i understand i will hardly need anyway). But i still can't resist. Downside is it's taking me ages to progress.

But you must have this game so if you need to i would still buy it.
I plan to check this mod when i've finished vanilla (that may unfortunately be sooner than expected if v1.00 bugs out and i can't continue)
though can you use the realistic weapons mod with this one too?

I haven't got this into a game since SS2/deus ex and I-war2, and i know it hasn't even kicked off yet.

So is it the same single player game but with tweaks or does it add an entirely new campaign?

Same but they are working on another mod that will have a completely new storyline, some new areas, 5 deeply revised areas and you will play a different character.

edit: hmm... my 666th post- we must celebrate. Bring me a pint of a new-born's blood MUHAHAHAHA!
