Call of The Zone is a standalone modification for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. – Call of Pripyat that allows you to explore the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone – a desolate and highly contaminated region of Ukraine that has been abandoned and closed off for decades ever since the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. What has been going on in this irradiated wasteland since then? There are no shortage of rumors and conspiracy theories, each more fantastic than the last. Rumors of mutated wildlife, brainwashed cults, secret experiments, and unexplainable paranormal events abound, as do promises of great riches and wildest dreams coming true for those who are daring or desperate enough to try to break through the cordon. You are about to find out for yourself what is true and what is yet undiscovered, and experience for yourself all the Zone has to offer... or to take from you.

I had followed the Call of the Zone last spring and had only a few, mostly minor hiccups on the way. Now I wanted to give it another shot and have a problem with movement:

Walking animation halts and stutters

As you can see in the video, there is a problem with the animation when I try to move: it's possible to take a step but then the animation halts and stutters; this happens in every direction. When I let the avatar sprint, the animation weirds out.

This happens with a fresh install, patched to v1.2, no addons, standard controls (apart from keys to switch the view).

Only difference on my end to last spring is an upgrade of Windows 10 to version 20H2.

Of course, I have re-installed the game (three times by now), yet the problem persists, even on v1.0 - the version that happened to run smoothly.

What to do?

Very odd. I have never seen that before. Do you notice any problems while in first-person view?

So, apparently, I'm a dumbass.

I switched to another FPS, which I should have done in the first place, and experienced the same problem. This circumstance pointed straight to a problem with either the keyboard or the USB port. It was the latter.

Sorry to have bothered you.

No worries, glad you got it sorted!
