I've noticed that the master server patch ceases to work when loading the full PROJAM 5 on AVP2 (PROJAM skins work fine). Is there something I'm missing with getting AVP2 PROJAM + Master patch to work? The master patch adds some well needed fixes to make AVP 2 work on modern PC's. I'll mention as well that the Primal Hunt PROJAM works fine, and the master server patch loads with no issue.

Thanks for this! Right now I'm just trying a base RvS 2.0 run, to familiarize, but I've noticed that some weapons (Glock 19, AR10, etc) don't work, and cause the game to crash after planning. Is your link to the RvS 2.0 patch the full RvS 2.0 mod, or just a patch to the full mod? If so, do you have a working link to RvS 2.0? Other than this issue with certain weapons, everything seems fine.

I just installed the 10.4 RC, but I'm just wondering if I installed it correctly before I begin a new game. I installed it over the 10.3 patch, is that alright? Or did I have to uninstall the old version first?

Just wanted to pop in and say I'm greatly enjoying this! I never played ACM due to the original feedback, and being an Alien fan, I didn't want my favourite franchise tainted. However, going in with this I'm inclined to say that this actually isn't a bad experience thus far! Dare I say, I'm enjoying the game!
I hope to see an update soon!

As for some info for new users, make sure you use those .ini fixes that Templar found, and I'd suggest delving into some guides and wiki's for further .ini fixes and edits. Also, if you run into strange crashes where you need to restart your PC, just go into the settings next time you boot up the game and crank them to "full", once you get past the area and to the next checkpoint, restart the game and continue on!

The Extended Gameplay DLC under addons will fix it. Definitely the definitive way to play Lost Alpha in my opinion.

I must say, I quite enjoyed this! I was pleasantly surprised, and I just completed the main story. I'm writing a proper review, but one thing I REALLY think could improve Lost Alpha is overhauling the undergrounds. They are extremely lacking when compared to the above ground levels, and even compared to vanilla undergrounds. They simply do not have the atmosphere to be expected from a Stalker game, whether it be the ghosts and flashbacks which either bug out or are simply presented in a subpar manner, or the layout being that of a labyrinth instead of a believable, livable, workable environment.
Going hand in hand with this, is the overuse of cutscenes. They should be kept to an absolute minimum, and exposition and backstory should preferably be provided in the way of documents or notes (Making use of those computers spread about the Zone). However, if some cutscenes are presented the same way as the introduction is, I would be rather pleased, I thought the introduction was very well done!

So I'm at the end of the game, X-2, and didn't have any issues! Only recommendations are to update it with the new military models, and perhaps revert the Monolith models to default? Come Pripyat, it was VERY hard to tell the difference between the two factions, very important seeing as the military were sometimes allies.

Running with extended and am not having any issues so far, although I've only tested Cordon and Garbage thus far. I did remove the new_npc xdb packages that I installed from extended, not sure if it'd work with those.

Glad to have helped find it, apologies for not clarifying I was using optionals. I'm using at least one option out of all the other optionals and can confirm they work (or at least don't crash upon a new game), just the binocular frames have the issue. Thanks for putting this together, last I played Autumn Aurora I was thinking how awesome it'd be alongside AMK haha!

Ok, think I solved it, apparently using either enabled or disabled in the optional Binocular Frames folder results in the crash, however I'm not sure if this is simply an issue on my end or not.

Hmm, same issue. Reinstalled outside of Program Files, as I heard that can have issues, installed v1.0004, and then put gamedata back into the Stalker directory. Game is definitely v1.0004 and successfully goes into the game with vanilla. I can't wrap my head around what is wrong. I did notice that with the gamedata installed I can see v1.0004 and AMK 1.4.1 in the lower left, but no AMK menu, although usually I thought that is on the pause menu, which I unfortunately cannot even get to.
Oh, and binoculars work fine in the vanilla without gamedata.

Oh, and my first try I used the included 1.0004 downgrade, my second install I directly installed v1.0004 before installing the mod (US patch, not Worldwide, if it matters)

I'm getting a crash upon loading a New Game, right when it hits 'synchronizing'.

Arguments : There is no 'binoculars' bone for weapon 'wpn_binoc_hud'.

I've attempted a reinstall of both the game and the mod.

Ahhhhh damn it haha. I forgot to use 'nointro, no prefetch' in the target line, disregard my issue!

Hi! I am very interested in using this, however I am running into an issue. I did a clean install of Stalker, upgraded to v.10005, then downgraded with the drag and drop v.10004 you included. All worked well, however as soon as I placed the gamedata folder into the folder, I get a CTD as soon as the X-Ray engine splash screen pops up.
