Microsoft.com
Visual Studio 2008 (VC++ 9.0) SP1 (no longer supported)
Learn.microsoft.com

*If appdata is not in the game directory. Open fs_game.ltx as a txt file, first line $app_data_root$ will show the way to it. Delete or rename this folder. This is the storage of your saves, logs and user.ltx file.
Installation:
00. For Steam users: RMB click on game -> Properties -> Local files -> Browse
01. Make a backup of BIN and PATCHES folders.

02. Restore backups of your vanilla BIN and PATCHES folders.
03. Delete mod appdata folder.
Mod addons:

02. To remove mod addons, delete its db file from PATCHES folder.
03. If some db file were replaced with mod addon, replace it with original mod one.
Tips:
01. The highest difficulty in vanilla game is a laughstock. Try story difficulty here first to not cry later, if you are not ready to adapt and survive.
02. Make hard saves every now and then by ~save [name of the save file without brackets].
03. DX9 (recommended) is recommended for max settings and best experience. NO DISCUSSIONS.
04. For more graphical options use "more expert options" addon.
05. To turn off weapon inertion: ~ g_use_aim_inertion 0 - off, 1 - on.
06. If the crash is not repeatable, this is not a crash.
Hidden controls:

02. Text hangs on the screen - take off and on the helmet.
03. Out of memory crash - load last save.
04. Stack Trace: - load last save.
05. Any NPC headshot crash - load last save.
06. Any unrepeatable random crash - load last save.
07. After taking anabiotic you hear the rumble - save game and load it, use anabiotic
right after message about the Emission to avoid this glitch.
08. A very strong fps drop can occur between Eastern Tunnel and Jupiter Plant - save
game and load it.
09. You die in Jupiter underground from the emission - load the save before entering
the tunnel, probably emission will start in 1-2 minutes, wait for the end.
10. Sokolov or a military guy don’t go to evacuation point - just leave them behind, it
doesn’t effect ending anyhow.
11. During the Evacuation Mission squad stops and not moving - replay from the last
hardsave. Make hardsaves during the evac mission, when squad is on the move. It
is possible that this mission can have glitches if replayed from quicksaves.
12. During the Evacuation Mission crash on loading save - load that save again, try to
find a safe place and make another hard save.
13. If you have troubles or crashes with Evacuation mission, chose Story difficulty and
finish it at once without intermediate saves.
14. If you have crashes moving towards the mission marker on second visit to Pripyat
(Unknown, Radio interference), try to replay from autosave, or load save before
autosave, if you have one.
15. Exe file is modified, so antivirus might check it.
16. If you can't change resolution after you already selected one, go to user.ltx and change vid_mode ----x---- to your height and width resolution. Open fs_game.ltx as a txt file, the first line will show where is user data folder. Open user.ltx as a txt file.

01. Open fs_game.ltx as a txt file, first line $app_data_root$ will show the way to it.
02. Open logs folder, open the log.ltx as a txt file, scroll to the bottom.

Hi is there a way to increase grass draw distance? I tried using COP_Grass_draw_distance, but it didn't work for me.
using that addon replaces renderer .dll's, and will cause issues with ABR.
I would advise reverting those changes and use the supplied dll's from ABR Mod.
The grass can be controlled through the console, via r__detail_radius
I played through the game on the mod's preset draw distance and it was pretty good. Really good mod though. Got me back into STALKER
Cool. We're glad you enjoyed the mod. :)
First, I don't remember, since I never use it. And second, this will destory FPS and it's not advised, outdated x-ray doesn't care your PC specs, it just will lag.
Hello. When I start the game, bugtrap opens, and the log says:

You are probably using Steam cloud, it contains user.ltx that compromise your game.
Disable steam cloud for STALKER COP only, then delete your appdata (Careful it contains your vanilla saves files)
Then launch back your game.
Read important info above How to get a crash log. The thing you show is trash.
hi, would you add a difficulty setting like how it was in abr 1.2? and also 1000kg carrying weight option
No
oookay but why did you remove the old versions download link?
Outdated version. It's deleted from the site completely and unsupported.
it's not available in nexusmod neither while there's archive for abr starting version 2.0
how's that you remove older version after releasing an update
I'm curious only because the project has been completely changed since abr2 and you didn't want older abr to be available even as an archive
>it's not available in nexusmod neither while there's archive for abr starting version 2.0
how's that you remove older version after releasing an update
Nexusmods made archive feature after 2.0 release and that is nexusmods policy, which had many negative feedback. They made it for keeping collection feature working and that's not up for me, I would delete all the archives there, since it's empty waste of space on their servers, I even said them about deleting old archives but they keep everything.
>I'm curious only because the project has been completely changed since abr2 and you didn't want older abr to be available even as an archive
Old version had many exploits, like sellable weapons which were not intended (I never repaired weapons to sell them), so people played version 1.0 wrong really. Yeah, at first I planned vanilla+, but after I wanted something more, same as our team. We made what we wanted and made 2.0 without looking back on others mods or vanilla. We grew out of vanilla. Maintaining many versions is waste of time. We almost perfected 2.0, final version will be released this year. We are completely happy with it.
As for the older version availability. There are many FULL PRICE games which are unavailable to buy now. Mortal Kombat KE, Dark Souls PTDE, Deadpool. Such things happen. I don't have to keep old versions, I decided to move on. I provide version which I personally would play. Funny thing is I started 1.2 vesrion after the release, I was bored with it and started to make 2.0. Do I have keep the version which I don't like? I don't think so.
I understand that old version hyped and all, but I don't sell anything and I don't owe anything. Hype is in the past, so the old version. Vanilla fans didn't like 2.0, ok. Find some another mod to play then. Things change. Current version is 2.0. It's stable, balanced and nearly perfect.
In one word - old version is flawed, unsupported and deleted for good. It's not like I hid it, I really think it's not worth it. This is the right of the author. Author can upload, update and delete the conntent. Users should accept it.
well of course it's your right to have control over your work and I didn't say 2 is bad or I didn't like it or you have to make it the way I like it, both 1 and 2 mods are great on how they are (I've played both) but different, for sure
after all, it wouldn't hurt if both of them were available for downloading, it would be fans choice to play which one, if someone is unhappy then they have to stick to the old version, but deleting it? I'm not holding anything against you and you don't even have to answer me at all, I'm a "USER" and I thought maybe this is somthing of matter to discuss
"so people played version 1.0 wrong really" ??? c'mon
and no I don't need abr 1 download link, I have it on my harddrive
2.0 surpasses 1.2 in every possible way as 1.2 surpassed ABR PACK. Yes. 2.0 is actually 3.0 version of the mod.
I made weather for 1.2, people were happy, who would knew people will not like the gameplay we did in 2.0 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Old versions. They are holding back from the work. Thanks for all the hate from overcasualized "vanilla veterans" with they reviews and the collapse of score, here on MODDB. I am not held by old version or vanilla and I will do what I want. So final major update will have many interesting changes in gameplay. So you better keep the current version. I think new one may even not be liked by anybody, but that is what art about, the act of creation - you can't please anyone, please yourself.
No old versions, no looking back, no sellable weapons, no stashes. Adapt and survive! :D
looking forward for the new release anyway
nice
