X-Ray Multiplayer Extension is a multiplayer modification for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. CoP that brings coop experience to the game. Doesn't work with Anomaly!
Step-by-step guide on how to install, set up and fix possible issues.
DOWNLOADING THE GAME
If your total game size shows as less than 7 GB when downloading the game - restart the launcher to fix issues.
LANGUAGE CHANGE
If you have English language in-game and you need, let's say, Russian, then exit the game, go to Settings in launcher, select any language other than the one you want and click Apply. Then select the language you need and click Apply again.
"WINTER STORIES" SEASONAL EVENT
To launch the seasonal event, open up the Seasonal Event tab and click Create server (WARNING! Do not set a password on your server, otherwise no one will be able to connect), then after it has started, click on Connect to your server. For your partner to be able to join the server, they need to launch the game from the same Seasonal Event tab. It works the same way with the base game - to play in Defence mode, you need to launch the server from the Server tab and launch the game from the Home tab. If you've got dynamic IP and the server isn't visible in server browser, you can use software to imitate a LAN network, such as Radmin VPN. Instructions below.
INVALID HOST ERROR
Disabling firewall can fix this issue. Open the Start Menu, type Windows Firewall, then in the left-hand menu click Turn Windows Firewall on or off and turn it off.
RADMIN VPN
Download and install the program, after launching it click Network > Create Network, type in your desired network name and password, then click Create. After that, if you've created your own network, invite other players to it by giving them your network's name and password. After joining the network, players will need to copy the IP address of the one who they wish to join and paste this IP in-game by clicking Direct IP in server browser.
IMPORTANT! xrMPE has English translation, to enable it, switch launcher language to English and start the game.
P.S. If you can't create or server or don't have teammates to play with, visit our Discord server: there you can ask players to launch a server or find teammates to play with in an appropriate channel.
Open up your xrMPE installation folder and open the bin folder, then start a startdedicated_df file. Then in the server list click Direct IP, type localhost as an IP and click Join.
IMPORTANT! When creating a server, you must consider whether your IP is static or dynamic. Dynamic IP won't be useable for hosting a server as nobody will be able to join it (use LAN-imitating software like Radmin VPN instead). Static IP makes your server publicly visible.
You can find more information about hosting a server on the internet.
IMPORTANT! X-Ray Multiplayer Extension is currently in beta testing, so there are a few things that you need to remember when installation or setting the mod up. Glitches and crashes are also possible.
If you did everything according to the instruction and still have problems, contact us on our Discord server. In case of a game crash attach the most recent .mdmp and .log files from _appdata_\logs of your game folder, or from _appdata_server\logs folder if it was a server crash.
IMPORTANT! We don't provide support for projects based off xrMPE and we will decline your help request if you are playing such a project, ask help from its creators. Also, support can decline your help request if you're playing an outdated version of the mod or if you downloaded it from unofficial sources.
Removal of items and bodies:
Values of #: -1 - never remove, 0 - remove after some time, 1 - remove instantly.
P.S. Thanks for playing our project. We will be grateful for your feedback.
Hello my beautiful dev's, i really appreciate your job and supporting my dream to come true and play stalker with my friends.
But when i tried to download it my windows didn't let me to open it and it erased it.
Is there anything suspicious going on, or the junk OS just tripping?
<3 <3 <3
You can, please, go to our Discord server (the link is in the file description) and ping @unnamedguy, it will help you. Thanks!
thought this wasn't a defence mode release, ya trolled me hard
Sorry. :(
Hello!
First of all, thank you for your work. At least I can play Stalker with my friends, because I can't manage to create server in any of the part of original trilogy.
But now I have a problem. I couldn't update the game or launcher, so I deinstalled the whole thing and downloaded latest launcher installer. There weren't any issues with that, but I can't download the mod itself. Either download doesn't start or when I start the launcher again, there is highlighted "play" button, but this error comes up when I click it: Prnt.sc
Your help will be appreciated.
Hi. We apologize, are investigating this issue and hope to resolve it soon.
hello.. does anyone having this issue when game launching?? xrEngine.exe caused BREAKPOINT in module "I:\Games\xrMPE Launcher\game\bin\xrCore.dll" at 0023:6A224972, xrDebug::backend()+146 byte(s)
Send us a ".log" and ".mdmp" (located in the .appdata folder) on our Discord server, please. Information and a link to the Discord server are in the file description.
oki everything works flawlessly after uninstal and re-downloaded 😉 amazing mod!!
Thanks!
I'm about to install it as well, but unfortunately it's being detected as a "Suspicious.Win32.Save.a". Can you guys maybe look into what could be causing that? I'm not doubting you, but I would rather be 100% sure that there's nothing sketchy going on. I mean, it's not like you could not obfuscate it completely or something, but why would that ever pop up in a virus scan? Thanks for the hard work! Looking forward for the open world stuff.
You can rest assured that everything is fine with the launcher. It just does not have a signature, since we have a non-commercial project. Antivirus might be wrong. :)
Tried to download but it is completely erased by win defender as a:
Trojan:Win32/Spursint.Q!cl
Desktop\xrMPE-Launcher-Setup-0.4.4.exe|https://sjc2.dl.dbolical.com
Microsoft.com

haven't tested it out yet , but thank you people for making our dream come true :)
This might be a dumb question, but does this work on anomaly?
No. :)
HI! i've downloaded and install all the stuff!
have a question, probably i misunderstood the mod.., but it's only planned to play TDM and Defense Game Mode?
i thought was something like MMO Open World with friends :D
anyway good job guys ^^
So far, only the "Defence" mode is available, the rest of the modes are planned, but it is not yet known when. :)
Make sure that the system and time are set correctlly?
It is necessary to set the correct time zone, date and time in the system.
а что делать если в лаунчере слишком днищенская скорость загрузи?
К сожалению, ничего, кроме как дожидаться, пока кто-то ещё станет на раздачу, поскольку лаунчер работает через торрент. :)
What games does it work with? Is it only CoP or maybe the entire trilogy?
Hey! COP only. :)
Hello, wanted to ask about an issue, I cant open the game as it says "Warning make sure that the system date and time are correct" How can I fix this.
Hey! In addition to the date and time, you need to set the correct time zone (find out the real time zone in your region and manually set it in the settings). :)
work in anomaly?
No, this is an individual modification, not an addon to the Anomaly. :)
even when i change it to english its still in russian?
Please, go to our discord server (you can find the invite link in the description) and ping me, @unnamedguy, then I'll tell you what to do

Do i need the original stalker call of pripyat for this to work?
Nope. Standalone mod. :)
Вопрос) а голосовой чат есть?)
Есть. :)
Is there any chance that this project could extend to standard stalker coop? I don't know how hard it would be, but i guess if it was easy you would do it in the first place.
Nothing is impossible.
But it's irrational to work on something that is not geared towards co-op, which would mean that we would have to thoroughly rework the game experience in order to make it interesting to play in co-op. This is not to mention the fact that an infinite amount of script data would have to be transferred to the multiplayer rails and all possible situations would be synchronized. As a result, having spent many years implementing even part of this plan, we would still end up with an empty and boring world for the sake of 1-2 passages by two players.
What I can't say about the multiplayer modes we're working on. Even the released Defense mode has a lot more variety of game situations and fun, especially when playing with friends. And future modes will multiply this fun a hundredfold. :)
Hello I was trying to download, but the launcher is stuck on "preparing to download the game". So I downloaded the game through the torrent and followed the directions but it just pulls up a window showing the server information and the game does not launch.
What's new here?
Moddb.com
Nice job!Keep up the good work.
any idea of how to fix download speed?
my internet is 479.9 Mbps download and 508.7 Mbps upload
but launcher can only get 500bps to 89kbps
It is very interesting and I liked it a lot but could you put it in Spanish since some Latin American players would like to try it in Spanish to understand more
Hello, we do not currently have the ability to translate into Spanish. :)
hola
Hey! :)
Hello.
Quick question:
Is this steam-pirate crossplay compatible?
I will buy another copy, but knowing this info can be useful.
Really happy to see this project going forward, take your time and best of luck.
