The Zone of Alienation mod is an adaptation of the renowned AMK mod. It is built on top of a specialized variant of AMK that uses a magazine system. From this premise, it has expanded to aim to include the following:

  • Realistic ballistics.
  • An expanded arsenal of weapons.
  • Improved AI.
  • An expanded and embellished storyline, from the original Shadow of Chernobyl, while preserving the original core plot.
  • New levels.
  • New characters.
  • New quests.
  • An artifact detection system, and new artifacts, with old artifacts having altered properties
  • A realistic implementation of night vision, weight, sleep, and possibly weather even affecting the actor.
  • Many visual improvements over the standard SoC, and AMK. 
  • Vastly increased difficulty.
  • Optional freeplay with the ability to traverse every level of the game, and join any faction.

Zone of Alienation mod, version 1.07 is out, I couldn't successfully upload it to Moddb, but here are the links.


File size was not the issue here, I simply could not upload it to this site, the compressed archive is 2.32GB, which is slightly under Moddb's limit.

I've been paying attention to many of the bugs people have been encountering with it. Almost no mod release is perfect, especially one with a history as rough around the edges as this mod. So below is the link to the first hotfix. I will be working on a follow-up patch in the next few days that adds some things, a few fixes, and in general tries to get the mod more functional and enjoyable to play.

Since this is now out, and we have a new base for the mod to work on, I can start work on incorporating new levels soon, but first I'm going to take a small break from major stuff and work on a followup patch and an optional addon. In the meantime, I'd like to welcome a new member to the modding team, Piznut, he worked on many of the weapon descriptions, and I look forward to him working on this mod in the future, speaking of which, I will be restructuring development very soon, as the changes being made after 1.07 involve a number of things that are currently out of my league.

Good hunting, stalker.

May be it a silly question, but is it normal that (I guess) Whirligig anomaly is invisible.
I always run into it sometimes when I roaming with careless.
I a bit worry about my rig graphic issues because I use very low end laptop PC.
Thanks in advance.

That's pretty intense but I love it.
Now, I can adjust myself; always throw the bolts, and re-memorize safe routes.

Still EXPLODED sometimes.

the anomalies change positions after every emission, so don't bother :P

I got a crash after refusing to join C Consciousness in the Monolith Control. It's kinda saddening to considering I'm this close to freeplay.

Getting through the CNPP plain of despair and down the Sarcophagus's halls of woe was a mighty undertaking to say the least. Thank you.
