Have you ever dreamt about playing the old, forgotten S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ?
We were amazed by GSC's work when they released the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. screenshots in 2002. The old design, and atmosphere was stunning and we couldn't believe our eyes. Later in 2005 things has changed. They redesigned almost all old levels. Some of them became smaller, simpler (still nice, but different), and some levels were removed. After the release in 2007 we played the game a lot, and quickly noticed that some areas are missing. We opened forums, and talked countless nights about those for almost a year. Nowdays we could say, we have a full vision about GSC's old levels, due to the collected materials, videos and forgotten screenshots. We decided to remake those stunning areas, maybe they won't be the same, but we will try everything to make them look really nice, as we always wanted to see them. In early 2009, GSC released a build from 2004, which contained many old materials. We used some of the sdk objects for the level remakes, but adjusted (and bugfixed) them for our liking, also we didn't throw out our own levels. So expect to see our own Darkscape, Dead City, Rostok Factory and some more in Lost Alpha :)
Also need to say, Lost Alpha addon is not just about levels and levels. We will try to make a somewhat, but not fully restricted alife, and deliver a lot of new, never seen features, among with some old ones, which many people wanted to see for long. If you are interested in, check the Features menu for FAQ, Interview, Features List, and many more. Also do not forget to check the gallery, and the movies. All comments are welcome, also we are glad to see suggestions too, however at this stage those won't be considered.
Thanks for your understanding!
Finally, we would like to thank to the old Stalker Team this wonderful game. Without them, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. wouldn't be a "dream-game".

I am a lurker on other STALKER sites, reddit, discord etc. I still find confusion or misinformed posts about LA in its current state (DC and LAR). Hopefully this pinned post will help clear some points up.
One of the main points of confusion seems to be the story still. The illuminati part of the story and their cutscenes were removed in DC and LAR (Lost Alpha Revisited). Some were first removed in DC (1.4007) when it was released, in 2018. DC also removed the entire dream sequence in x16 so it plays as it did in SOC now. There was a "storyline changes" mod available in the launcher that got rid of others as well, but it is no longer there. However, it is integrated in LAR.
In LAR (Moddb.com) I removed the remaining cutscenes I felt did not belong. They still alluded to the illuminati story or did not make sense. Check the full patch notes pastebin link in LAR's description for more information.
Overall, the main story in DC and LAR is basically the same as SOC now. There are some people who enjoy earlier versions of LA though, in that case, the illuminati story is still intact.
Please read the below article for a little more info on the three versions of LA if you wish (note: I do not support DCE, nor was involved in it, the link below explains who was involved in DCE).
Finally, please check out the original games and STALKER 2 by scanning the below or following this link:

Hi gripcage, very cool! I am sure other people would appreciate your efforts as well!
Thanks. Tbh, I expected it to be a bigger torture than it actually is.
One thing to notice tho, said ported weapons don't appear when using the default LADC engine.... and they also cause other world models, like doors or NPCs, to disappear.
This doesn't happen with the binaries provided with LAR.
Dunno if I will be able to make it work with both - time will tell.
EDIT: with the LAR binaries I am having weird issues with trees that are further away being invisible, then popping in suddenly into view. Any idea what can cause this?
EDIT 2: found the issue of disappearing models, was a mistake on my side.
Hello! I Installed the game and LAR update first time to try out the mod and it just refuses to launch no error codes no anything downloaded third parties twice and still nothing anyone can help?
I would need the crash log lines at the very end of the xray_username log, located in appdata\logs. There would be "fatal error" or "stack trace" verbiage at the last 10 lines or so.
Please PM me that, so it doesnt clutter the messages here.
Before that, please ensure you are using the launcher included with LAR. And that you indeed have no other mods installed. Check the "mods" folder in the root dir. and make sure only the files from LAR zip file are in there.
Finally, if you want to test everything is installed correctly, you can bypass the launcher. Instructions are in the pastebin patch notes. If it doesn't start that way, there is some other issue on your end.
Hi! I just installed the game but every time I start the game or create a new game I get the error: MSVCP120.dll not found
It seems that it is due to some Visual C++ issue, but I installed the most recent ones and it still gives the same error. Any way to solve it?
Edit: Nevermind, fixed it. In case it happens to someone else, just install the 3rdparties. That fixes it.
Glad you got it working!
Which .db file contains the config files? I went through the entire database, but I couldn't find it.
There are 2 db files in the root directory (where the Configurator exe is), configs are in there.
