I used to love these mods back on Fallout 4 and Skyrim so I made my own for STALKER.
It takes you out of the immersion. It's written by a chode. I get it. I've heard it all before.
I've got 141 "tips" written up so far.
I've got about 5+ actually useful tips in there from me.
And then plenty of silly jokes, needless profanity and community submitted tips!
So it truly is a crappy user-made loading screen tips mod!
Big thanks and full credit to user Don_Zubio for the Russian-translated version!

Tip 69: Something really fucking obvious. - STALKER Anomaly probably
^not actually a tip in the mod, that's just for this page.
This mod is literally a GameData folder with two small text files.
I already know everyone's gonna fucking hate it.
It takes you out of the immersion. It's written by a chode. I get it. I've heard it all before. This mod ain't for you and it's cool.
The only difference is, if you guys want it, I'll try add a ton more in an update OR I'll completely refresh and redo the pool of loading screen tips.
Let me know and in a week's time there'll either be an update or a comment section filled with hate lol
The stuff in the mod was written in less than half an hour by a mind that really needs to go to bed right now. So I can easily improve, rewrite, add interesting stuff.
Anyway here's 5 completely random examples. I love you all and go fuck yourselves <3
Tip 57: Faction letter #1: Dear Renegades: Why are you so shite at everything? Yours faithfully, everybody.
Tip 51: PDAs of dead stalkers can have useful information on them. I sold one to a trader and he said it had "Porn. Lots of porn." on it. If I knew that, I wouldn't have fucking sold it.
Tip 1: "To err is to be cheeki." - Ancient S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Proverb.
Tip 41: MooZe, if you're out there, great fucking job on your STALKER music. People still enjoy and love it to this day. Thank you for your work.
Tip 44: Dude, there's a whole faction out there, running around in Adidas tracksuits with shit guns and shit aim - robbing people in militarised factions. If anyone gets run up on by these bandits, take it as a fucking insult.

[07/03/2023] - Thank you for the positive reception!
Currently working on another Tips mod that is taken from player suggestions! Already got half of needed Tips from users over at Reddit's r/stalker and I've just asked for more on the forums here.
Feel free to comment yours here!
[11/03/2023] - 120+ downloads! Uploaded Version 2! Uploaded to Nexus!
We jumped from 72 tips to 141!!
Included all 30ish of the Reddit community submitted "tips".
I didn't get enough for it's own standalone mod but some of them are really good so I had to use them!
Added 3 more screenshots in the description straight from my own game for your viewing pleasure.
Again, feel free to comment your own - maybe I'll do a V3 if I get enough.

Bro, I made a patch for this amazing mod, so it can be used together with G.A.M.M.A.
It has been posted in their Discord, unless you give me permission too to share it here.
Otherwise, I'll upload it only on the GAMMA discord server
Hey sorry for the late reply.
Do whatever you want with my mod, just add my username to the description somewhere, that's all.
Feel free to upload your patch anywhere. Use my comment section for advertisement too. Someone might come here and wonder about GAMMA.
I'm honored you put the work in like that for my little mod <3
Thanks bro, you are amazing, please keep it up
I hope you have an amazing day
