View Full Version : Sharing a mod update for STALKER game

For the past year I've been working on a mod for a STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl PC game.

Stalker was in development since 2002 and was shipped in 2007 still unfinished, this gave the grounds for growth of a large modding community around that title, producing a lot of updates to bring the game in line with modern technology.

When I first entered the modding scene, those stand alone mods were scattered all over the message boards and it was really hard to track and apply them. So I joined forces with other artists with intention of brining most of the community work on a surface and make it more accessible, so we can turn Stalker from an underrated and buggy title to a cool new game anyone can enjoy.

This is not a mod in traditional sense, more of an unofficial update, trying to fix what it can, with the main story and gameplay intact. It focuses mostly on visuals (skyboxes, sun/moon effects, UI), so any critique from fellow Conceptart members about weather system and user interface changes is appreciated :yayca:

Mod can be seen and downloaded here:

The game is really different, gives outsider's experience, almost depressing at some point. I think every artist should play it once.

Buddy of mine just purchased S.T.A.L.K.E.R for the reduced price. I recommended this mod to him. Great work.

Yes, Priboy Story and upcoming Lost Alpha are awesome, they recreated new games basically with new quests and stories.

By the way, my buddy said the difference with S.T.A.L.K.E.R Complete is like night and day. :)
