S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly Repack Update 1.3.3 file

If you have any problems with this update, first make sure that you don't have any addons installed that could cause issues.

You can get back to a clean gamedata directory at any time but deleting the gamedata directory and then unpacking the file gamedata-reset.zip to re-create a new gamedata directory with the minimal required set of files. Doing that will reset your game settings, so check them before loading a save or starting a new game!

Description

You can always find the latest Update Previews for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly Repack on this forum post: "How to install Anomaly Repack"

Enabling Dynamic Anomalies in the game settings requires a new game or will cause problems, so keep it disabled if you continue playing an existing save.

It requires the repack version and is NOT compatible with older versions of Anomaly!

Known Issues

For some people DX10 is still a bit unstable. If you have problems with random crashes, try DX11 instead. According to feedback from affected players, it removed their crashes almost completely. If you don't have issues with DX10, stick to it, it's still the recommended renderer.

If you get low FPS, you can also try to turn off SSAO and reduce the view distance a bit. Switching to the DX9 Enhanced renderer might also improve performance with some graphics cards.

The first time you load Anomaly, you may get a black screen for a while before the main menu is showing. Have some patience, it can take between 30-60 seconds if that happens. Next time you start the game, it's most likely going to be much faster.

Official addons

These addons are created by Anomaly Developers and should always work with the latest Anomaly updates

• S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly Repack Minimap
  Enable a minimap in the top left corner of the HUD
• S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly: Back to the Roots - World
  Replaces the HD textures with the original textures from LD, reduces the system requirements a lot
• S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly: Back to the Roots - Models
  Replaces the HD models with the original models from LD, some people prefer the those models

For more addons, look at the list on the addon section for Anomaly. Most other addons may not always be compatible with the latest Anomaly updates, but are usually quickly updated by their authors if that's the case.
