But... anomalies are actually visible right now if you look carefully.
if you use The zone mod by IgorNitch anomalies are invisible as it is intention of the modder to make you use bolts a lot, i prefer visible anomalies as they were always one of the core items in stalker games...
I'm speaking about vanilla Anomaly, where anomalies are barely visible but visible. Completely invisible is PURE INSANITY. And completely visible maybe it's too easy, uh?
yes maybe its too easy i agree on that
but it is a matter of preferences, i like them visible as if in a real world scenario..
Could you please take the time to fix the scopes bug (reticle being to the side ) on lower DirectX versions ? I mostly play this game while im away on my laptop and it barely runs on DX10 , so i prefer higher FPS and i play it on DX8 . This modpack is just SOLID GOLD but i cant properly run it the only problem being the sniper rifles scopes not being centered when aiming .
a user already found the solution take a look:

okay so basically, there is a file inside gamedata>configs>texttures called "scopes_16.xml". Open this in a text editor. In this document there is a line that starts with "<wpn_corsshair_bino". There is a line under that that starts with "<auto_static". Change both the x and the y value to 0, and then mess with the "width" value and the "height" value on that same line until the texture fits your screen in game. It took me a few tries, you have to save the change you make and then boot up the game, see what it looks like, and then exit the game and change the values again as needed.
Sorry for the long instructions, I hope this works for you."
i can try to help you fix the issue.
what resolution are you using?
This mod comes to cater to my opinion about the zone.
It's a personal opinion, but I've never liked the idea of how something that reacts to the world around it would be almost invisible being entirely made of fire, electricity, poison, and so on, even in a science-fiction theme like Stalker, since it aims so hard towards natural-world verisimilitude. It makes sense from a game perspective since its developers would want the anomalies to surprise you, but not form a natural standpoint.
It's a small thing, but I find that this mod makes the game more realistic. Thank you, m5spiritonfire, for your contribution to the Stalker community!
download got corrupted everytime i open it with winrar, should i use 7zip? what do?
it must be some problem with your winrar stalker, i downloaded just now and opened everything with winrar, try reinstalling/updating winrar or use 7zip but winrar is working for me (weird problem you have there)
Update 7zip.
