New engine update along with a couple tweaked user.ltx files with increased lod's and increased depth to the shadows. Performance will be almost identical while maintaining higher visual quality. There are only two differences between the user.ltx files and those differences make the zone darker or brighter overall.

Updated Engine to OGSR 2.1.186
New version of the OGSR engine fixes an issue where the engine wouldn't properly close.
How to install:
1. Open the engine update folder, copy and paste bin_x64 and gamedata into the root of Shadow of Chernobyl and overwrite all files.
2. Choose a user.ltx and overwrite the existing one in _appdata_ in the Shadow of Chernobyl folder. If yours is stored in another place search stalker shoc in the windows search and you'll find it.
3. Enjoy!

Hello, the game starts but after clicking on a new game it starts loading and the error "Cant open section" wpn_a74_m1 "
Strange. That shouldn't happen. Have you tried any other weapon mods or tried to add ZRP? If you have that'll be causing the issue. If not then I am not sure because I have never ran into the issue while testing.
clean version of gog
I played a little modification. It turned out well, but some textures need to be replaced with others.

So sorry about the late response. The video is great! I have worked out a really nice tweak for the user.ltx that adjusts the sunshafs and improves them greatly and makes every sunshaft mode look good especially the one you use in the video now looks the best. Plus adjustments to grass denity and range, made some changes to mipbias to help fight issues with fences. I made a couple fine tweaks to the ambient lighting and middlegray amount so it looks just right all the time.
How to increase the font in the game? I play tv and can barely read anything.
