Important Notes:

• If your game is crashing:
  • If the game crashes without error or with OpenAL error - Install "oalinst.exe" from "Fix Files" folder.
  • If the game crashes with library errors - Install "1-vcredist_x86.exe" first then "2-vcredist_x64.exe" from "Fix Files" folder.
  • Set "Texture Details" to maximum in Advanced Video Configuration.
• At end of this text there a list with known compatible addons.

Notes of version:

• Removed "enemy radar" from minimap and now, enemies appear in minimap only if it is in line of sight or if you are using an fully upgraded Tactical Helmet.
• Fixed Tech discount. Before this fix, all techs have their price at minimum value, always. Now their price will start high (friends will have a small discount in initial value) and price will reduce while player do quests to technician.
• Each technician have their unique prices. Less practical techs have lower prices while more secure or convenient techs have high prices.
• Improved ammo description about armor pierce capacity.
• A great UI revision. After many adjusts, fixes and updates, it's time to review the user interface, particularly the weapons stats interface. No weapons or ammo was changed in this patch, but the interface was fixed.
• Fixed some bugs with prices and weapons.
• Binoculars now have only tools requirements to upgrade.
• Revised less used artifacts, sightly increasing their bonuses.
• Chemical/Radioactive fallouts are extreme common and their duration can be annoying to players in early game, then, the fallout duration is reduced by 12,5%.
• Any report about game balance, crashes or game performance will help-me to solve these problems in future versions because I work alone and for this reason I can't test everything even with my exhaustive tests.

What expect in this pack ?

• Challenging combats.
  • You are not an "one men army". Bullets, mutants and anomalies can easily kill you. Take care.
  • Guns act like guns not airsoft! Even low caliber pistols are lethal, don't underestimate anyone, take cover before any action if you're trapped.
  • Mutants are a major threat. Never underestimate a mutant and try to hit his head to kill it faster. Act like a hunter, each mutant have an optimal strategy to kill.
  • Zombified stalkers are dumb, with terrible aim capacity but will see you from considerable distance.
  • Human NPC with reworked AI to improve combat quality.
  • What you prefer, a bullet or an anomaly? Anomalies are dynamically relocated during emissions! Use your bolts!
  • Take care, bleed can kill you! Always carry Bandages, Anti bleed artifacts or any way to combat this major threat.
  • Rats, tushkano, black dogs and pseudogiants cause great radiation poisoning if you get closer.
  • Poltergeists and controllers have a lethal, close range, psi-aura! Don't get closer!
  • Stealth is a viable play style!
  • You know when you make noise (the blue bar below minimap) but you can't know if someone see you.
  • All weapons have their "personality", with many different characteristics, upgrade tree, accepted ammunition and usability. Try to find your favorite!
  • Some mutants have natural armor. Treat them like an armored stalker.
  • Use the right ammo to the right situation! (The information of ammo use is in ammo description)
    • Hollow point ammo (HP) and super shock tip ammo (SST) cause extreme damage to soft armored targets but have a poor capacity to trespass armors.
    • Full metal jacket ammo (FMJ) have good armor penetration and damage making this ammo a general purpose ammunition.
    • Armor pierce ammo (AP) have lower damage but an extreme capacity to trespass armor.
    • Explosives cause great damage even to armored targets and have a big area of effect.
• Four types of random events in the zone.
  • During all events, a quest marker on the PDA map will show you the nearest shelter.
  • Emissions: A great and lethal wave that will kill you if you are not protected. After emission, a little radiation fallout occur, small anomalies are relocated and artifacts spawn in major anomalies zones. (To prevent bugs, by default, this event don't affect NPCs)
  • Psi-storm: A great thunderstorm with random lightning falling from sky, killing you if you are struck by a lightning out of a shelter. (To prevent bugs, by default, this event don't affect NPCs)
  • Chemical fallout: A great poisonous cloud cover the zone, poisoning any unprotected stalker. Player with sufficient chemical protection can travel during this fallout at cost of damaging their armor.
  • Radioactive fallout: A great radioactive cloud cover the zone, poisoning any unprotected stalker. Player with sufficient radiation protection/absorption is unaffected by this fallout.
• Complete economics rework.
  • Merchants will buy equipment with at least 50% of durability and there many other ways to get rich. Money will not be your greatest challenge.
  • Each faction have a unique play style. Each faction have their exclusive equipment or weapon upgrades (sold to faction friend) and the relation with other factions can completely block your access to some maps if this map is controlled by an enemy faction!
  • Armor from each faction have unique characteristics, advantages and disadvantages.
  • Complete artifact rework.
  • Become friend from a faction will grant's you the exclusive resources from this faction. Become friend from multiple factions can unlock unique equipments sold by some merchants.
  • All consumable items have their importance, even in late game.
• Base game modifications.
  • Emergency release system to release in a stash your inventory, to reduce your carried weight in emergencies.
  • Fast travel to visited locations, in open world maps, at cost of in game time and hunger.
  • Quick save and fast travel are possible only if you are not in danger! To difficult exploits, quick save and fast travel will work only if your life is above 75%, you are not irradiated, bleeding, exhausted and out of any psi-field.
  • Each achievement really make the difference!
  • Quest items can't be sold or stored in stashes, but all quest items have no weight.
  • Story line quests are revised to prevent quest marker to put player in a suicide mission!
  • NPCs can sprint!
  • Many fixes and tweaks to prevent performance issues, including a 64 bit engine to fix memory issues.
  • Helicopters are disabled by default (I don't like then) but, if you want to play with patrol helicopters, enable it in game options before create a new game and do not disable it anymore! A bug prevent helicopters to spawn if the world is created without it or if is removed.

Armor and Scope accessories:

• Radiation absorber Mk.X: Equipments with this accessory can absorb radiation at rate of "X", like analogous artifact. For example, if an armor have radiation absorber Mk.3, its equivalent to equip an Jellyfish in terms of radiation absorbtion (Radiation -3).
• Life support system: This accessory is always linked with two artifacts, one of regeneration and other of bleed control. Armors with this accessory fight bleeding and regenerate life as if the respective artifacts were equipped but without other artifact effects.
• Night vision devices: Mk.1 - Low contrast with high color saturation. Mk.2 - High contrast and low color saturation. Usual in low light situation like full moon nights. Mk.3 - High contrast and high color saturation. Usual in real dark areas. Experimental/Scopes - Black and white with very high contrast and high color saturation. Better than Mk.3 to use in real dark areas.
• High contrast filter: Combat high contrast filter - Filter the color from radiation and chemical color effects and lighten the vision (Equipped in M40 helmet and in few duty and military suits). Scientific/Scope high contrast filter - Applies a yellow filter and lighten the vision (Equipped in few scientific suits and Screen Helmet. Can be equipped with upgrade in some weapon scopes).
• Adjustable shoulder/Shoulder/Body straps: Increases weight carry capacity.

Defense characteristics by faction:

Story-possible factions:

• Loner: Don't have any particular armor but, if player become friend, can buy, at very high prices, any Scientific suit or Exoskeleton.
• Duty: All armors have radiation absorber, life support system and high armor value but all armors are heavy, have few artifacts slots, low environment protection and consume high amount of stamina. Focused in direct combat. (You become a tank, but take care, the zone is not made only with bullets and claws)
• Freedom: All armors have high environment protection, are very light and consume low amount of stamina but have reduced armor value in comparison with other factions. Focused in hit'n'run guerrilla strategy. (The only exo that have environmental defenses comparable to medium armors)
• Mercenary: All armors have medium defense values, consume medium amount of stamina, have many artifacts slots but don't have accessories like night vision devices. Very adaptable armors but extremely dependent of artifacts. (Remember, Heart of the Oasis and Compass are your best friends)
• Clear Sky: An intermediate to mercenary and freedom armors. Have better environment protection compared to mercenary but lower defense values and less artifact slots. Masters of Psi protection. (The anti monolith armors)
• Scientists: Extremely high environmental protection, many artifacts slots and extremely low stamina consumption but with very low defense values. Focused in exploration.

Enemy factions:

• Military: Extremely high values of defense and life support system but with few artifacts slots, very low environmental protection and extremely high stamina consumption. Extremely specialized in direct combat.
• Bandit: Low armor and environmental defenses but all armors are very light and have extremely low stamina consumption. Extremely specialized in hit'n'run guerrilla strategy but with lower environmental defense.
• Monolith: Medium-high environmental and combat defenses, reduced psi defense, has much artifacts slots and all armors have radiation absorber Mk.1. The real jack of all trades. (if you are not a monolith, take care with ghosts, really)

FAQ:

Q - Do you make any of used addon ?
A - Some addons, yes. But many of the addons that compose this overhaul was made by other modders.

Again, for the addons cited above: Neither of addons were made by my person and all credits need to be done to the correct authors.

Q - Addon X is compatible with this pack ?
A - I don’t know. Usually aesthetics addons don’t conflict with anything but any addon that change/add armors, weapons or anything related with will conflict. Some addons, like Warfare, are compatible except for little problems that can be fixed with little work.

Q - I found a bug, how can I report it ?
A - You can put this bug in the comments. I'll try to fix the bug to the next version.

Q - I become friend with loners and Sidorovich don’t change their price or items sold, it’s a bug ?
A - No, Sidorovich is a penny-pincher and will not change their prices, no matter if you are a friend or not.

Tip: Nimble is a smuggler, if you pay the right price he will sell what you want, but you need to proof him that you are trustworthy and if you proof him that you are really rich, he’ll increase his offer even more.

Q - I can’t find any tool, where I find any ?
A - Remember what stalker say when you ask him for a tool in Call of Pripyat and you’ll know one way to get a set of tools.

Q - Too many weapons even in early game ?
A - Initially I make weapons exclusive for each faction, high tier weapons exclusive to high tier stalkers and rare in vendors, the problem here is high tier weapons became useless due lack of ammo. For this reason I decided to put the game advance in armor and not in weapon and you can find about any weapon even in early game, just search for right faction (don’t expect high tier weapons with bandits).

Q - Why 1.4.22 ?
A - Because this is the stable version and has the majority of the addons. But don’t worry, when 1.5 is released I’ll port this pack to new version.

Q - Is this update compatible with old saved game ?
A - Yes, you don't need to start a new game. But it's advised to do. The game was greatly changed and some of this modifications will be active only on new game.

Q - Why did you give up on implementing a button to fast throw bolts/grenades ?
A - Because it's really possible in CoC 1.5 and, in 1.4.22, I need to improvise to implement this, causing many bugs and instabilities.

Troubleshooting:

P - My S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat isn't installed but I want to play Call of Chernobyl.
