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.

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.
How to get a crash log:
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.
03. Copy everything after FATAL ERROR in the end of the file.
Alternative: Press Ctrl+V right after the crash to paste the needed log part in text field.

Yo. People waiting for the update.
It's probably going to be a bit bigger, than it was expected, new music options, some rebalance, looks like I fixed hostage on Jupiter, now he will not die who knows from what (he's immortal as he supposed to be, hehe). Nimble will buy his unique ammo, if you don't have them any more. G36, SIG550, KS23 and some of his uniques will go into the world.
Some stuff which may be looked like nerfs. first column of upgrades doesn't need tools, 2nd column of the upgrades need 1st toolset, 3rd column needs 2nd toolset, 3rd toolset is needed only for exo run and 3rd gen nv. That means more artifact containers (if it will not break the balance ofc) and almost all upgrades are there to have. Spend more money and face all difficulties of the Zone prepared. Durability, rupture and armour upgrades can be installed without choosing between them. Since everything is needed, player damages are higher in the mod after all.
Difficulties are renamed for Normal, Hard, very Hard and Ultraviolence. Since vanilla master players still think that vanilla master ois something difficult. I hope people now will understand that choosing Ultraviolence will destroy a casual player as it should be. Play normal, dudes.
I'm pretty excited for this update, since this looks like a final update, may be it will be fixed later, if some bugs will come up. But as for the balance, this is it.
Anyways, have a good one.
can't wait to fire up Pripjat again at ultraviolence
Respect, mate.
Hi, there.
This summer\autumn ABR COP MOD FINAL probably will be released. Since no bugs are coming up anymore, I have no ideas what can be changed (burers will be there people, if you can't outthink those jedis, considering I'VE ADDED TIPS TO GONTA HOW TO DEFEAT THEM, DON'T PLAY THIS MOD, your complains will not be heard anyways).
Here are the changes of it:
• Weapon text tweaks.
• Double-barreled, pump-action and semi-auto shotguns reload speed is increased.
• M79 and RG-6 reload speed is increased.
• SVD and SVU reload speed is increased.
• Remade readme files.
• Updated TRG42 and AWM shoot weapon animations for shell ejection (PYP).
• Updated hud and world model of the TRG42 (PYP).
• Updated SKS idle, bore, reload hand animations (PYP).
• Updated Mosin reload, shoot weapon and hand animations (PYP).
• Updated Mosin smoothing (PYP).
• Controller hand costs more.
• Darker hand radio texture.
• Slug upgrade for shotguns removed, slug default accuracy is increased instead. And loadscreen tip about that is fixed too.
• Ammo and weapon addons price tweaks.
• Pseudodog tail mutant part has proper fur texture.
• FN SCAR-SSR has replaced SVU-A in Strelok's stash. Regular SVU became SVU-A.
• Fix for Beard dialog about artefact orders reappearing.
• New main menu.
• New main menu and credits music themes.
• Zaton night soundtrack tweak.
• No forced music in lab and underground addon added if you don't play with game's music (what is completely strange to me, but nevermind).
• Burning Fuzz texture tweak.
• Gauss ammunitions have white tracer.
• Weapon jammed and overweight hint text lines on the screen are returned.
Currently I'm finishing 9 mins credits theme (which nobody probably even listen, but hey? I dreamt to compose a stalker expansion ost since 2011, DREAMS COME TRUE! HE HE HE HE!).
After tests, I'll upload the FINAL version and that's it. This mod is finished.
So when is it expected to come
PYP plans some updates too. I'm still testing bulid and tweaking things here and there besides the stuff I've read about above. Dunno, this summer probably.
Alright I am desperately waiting for it.
Hi, is there a setting or settings i could tweak to make guns sellable to traders?
Nope, sell ammo and artefacts. Stalker community should stop the bad vanilla hampster habbit to spend half of the game in the inventory carrying stuff from point a to point b. This is my opinion and I have right to have it and I confirm it in the mod.
Alternatively, unpack the mod and change the mod on your own, but no support from this point. The mod is stable, not gonna cure the following bugs.
Also, you can try some other mod. Use just graphics mods.
This mod was appeared aciidentaly, when I didn't like Misery mod conception and though that it is easier to make own mod than delete all the trash items (in my opinion) from Misery (I still think this mod is OP for the community and rightfully has its cult, though I never play it, I am not a stupid hater, like many others - "oh, I didn't like the mod, it's bad", you just didn't like it, lol, it doesn't make it bad), now I think, it was not easier. But for me it was just fun around. Working with PYP was cool. I don't build a community of the mod to sell them ads or something, I don't need monetizationof it. So you just play it or not. Or you can tweak it on your own, but you have to put some effort in it. Unpack it, change configs, figure out how it works.
We did everything we could, this is a finished freebie. The funny thing is, I really asked my team mates two years ago (?) about adding such an option, and was ready to do it. But they said eveyrthing is ok the way it is. 2 against hesitating one. So nah, there is no option for selling guns and will never be. Survive, adapt, break vanilla habits, re-open the game with the mod or play vanilla\something else.
The following 2.0 version of ABR CS MOD will not have sellable guns too. And ABR SOC MOD will not have sellable guns too. The point is even ABR COP MOD 1.0 shouldn't have sellable guns, since I NEVER REPAIRED LOOTED WEAPONS TO SELL. I guess the whole ABR MOD conception is to not sell looted guns. Hehe. This is really a revelation.
Anyways, have a good one.
4 to 5 burers in the Iron Forest Anomaly is for sure very fun...
Yes, they are indeed.
If you're having trouble, change your tactics.
