I want something that brings new life to Stalker. Stalker is tricky enough to run without multiple mods that could potentially clash and crash. Misery requires Call Of Pripyat installed, but the mod has an installer that will take care of the rest. That means you should have no trouble installing them, even if they can get a bit crashy. Most of these technically aren’t mods, but instead are standalone games, built on the various X-Ray engines out there. Every release has its own style, aided by the developer’s willingness to let modders use their assets and engine to a remarkable degree. The three games - Shadow Of Chernobyl, Clear Sky and Call Of Pripyat - have all kinds of mods, and those mods have their own mods. I’ve never known a game to be quite as autopsied by its own fans as the Stalker series (or, technically S.T.A.L.K.E.R., but who has the time). There’s clearly more than one answer to that. On every PC gaming forum, there’s a question that pops up without fail: “Now that I’ve completed Stalker, how should I replay it?” This time, Craig is creeping carefully through the Stalker series to bring you the best of the best.
Every other Monday, we give you a reason to dust off one of your old games and dive into its mods with Modder Superior.
