the weight hacks appear to be standard across all stalkers. the patch would change the saved game file structure but not the config file structures

really it is pretty mandatory this game because of the vast empty spaces and lack of functional storage boxes like they used to have in the other games

it may feel cheap but it will increase your enjoyment of the game dramatically
 
im running game default. i bought a tuned niva, i store all my stuff on my tuned niva, including several cans of gas for refueling.
 
Is it possible to do this with the new patch? I heard it changes the file structure.

i guess you could find some mod.. the correct way would be to unpack all the gamedata files to a gamedata folder and do the old editing trick, its too much bother though, at least for me :p
 
overwhelming the amount of stalker fans here..

anyway, driving my tuned niva in the forest, this thing is a goddamn jeep, climb mountains and shit :D

Third patch is out. Maybe I'll actually start playing it,though it's a pain to start a new game as required with each new patch.

I'm gonna give it another few months until I'm back in the Stalker mood. Then this shall be played day and night..labs only in daytime of course :D
 
I've been playing Secret Trails 2 mod.
It's good! Been playing it on and off for about 2 weeks now. :eek:
It has a lot of hours in it. ;)
 
I might give this game a shot, never got into the series too much, but there's a void in my life that Fallout 4 should be filling.
 
Saw mention in the Lost Alpha comments that Autumn Aurora 2 may be better than Stalker Complete for SHOC.

Anyway, Lost Alpha is still at 1.3003 since July so I suppose it's stable now, and they are apparently working on a "developer's cut" which looks like a long haul to finish.

good to know. I've been waiting to play this forever.
 
I want to go back and play STALKER again. I only played vanilla, oblivion lost, and stalker complete. I really liked oblivion lost!
 
It gives a much larger & original feeling to STALKER than Shadow of Chernobyl did. I recommend it. I still need to play all of the way through it myself, which I'll get around to eventually.
