Hey if you put shading quality to epic it will fix the yellow/pink mutants if you want to keep the flashlight shadows
@moldarioКүн бұрын
brilliant tip dude. I'll pin your comment. the rest of the shadow settings can stay wherever you like but the shading quality has to be Epic. However if you're getting worse frames because of that, lowering the settings and removing shadows entirely is still a vialble option

OK, installing a Vortex update and game 2 plugin has never terrified me before today. I updated Vortex, added Stalker 2, and restarted my PC... The next thing I know it doesn't know which NVME drive to start from. I ended up having to tell it to use the boot device manager, change my MS password, and PIN #, but now it seems to be working. Yikes. I don't know what I'd do without my PC... I'm disabled and stuck at home 99% of the time. Please computer god, keep my PC healthy!

sheeesh, that sucks dude, I'm glad you got it to work. I just avoid mod organizer tools at this point until it's more widespread with stalker 2.

@@moldario I think it was a coincidence. I'm not sure why my UEFI would forget which was my startup NVME drive, but it did. So, I did a bunch of touble shooter stuff... nada... but I reminded it of my preferred boot order and it's working fine... The odd after-effect - it starts up about 40 seconds faster now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I believe you need them yes. At least that's the only way to install the mod afaik. did you get the game on Steam?

I customized the settings on my own and managed to keep the shadows on without any weird colouring. I think it was the same you did but you may be missing the other shadow drawing settings from the profile you downloaded.

huh, it could be that your Shading Quality setting was on Epic as @reiken3653 said in his comment, so you weren't seeing that bug.

stalkers wearing tiny flashlights on headbands and you turned it in to police searchlight. I have adjusted my default setting and game is perfectly fine in night time with original flashlight, i like experience as game intended.
@moldarioКүн бұрын
dude, I finished it twice with the default flashlight and "as the devs intended" brightness settings. The game looks great, the dark is dark, as it's supposed to be. But the flashlight still sucks. And I think what they had to do, was add two modes to the flashlight - far (like in the mod) and near (as it is without it)
@valdzeelis25Күн бұрын
@moldario I need flashlight when I explore buildings or tunnels and it's sufficient for that, outside is not that important because I clearly see where I going, if people at night can't see nothing then is unrealistic and adjusting settings is required.
@moldarioКүн бұрын
@@valdzeelis25 I guess we can disagree, since imo stalker was always a "properly dark nights" type of game and having a flashlight that is almost like holding a candle is just not good enough. Also, changing the brightness (away from the recommended settings) to be able to see is just not ideal. It's an omission on the developers' side. I mean running around in the woods with a flashlight that will shine further is immersive af. here's a good example of me playing with default settings and regular flashlight: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fH3blGOLqtCNd9k

@@M.A.S.L.A.N.A I guess it got lost in translation for me. So I tested it out and it does make it a little better. In the sense that you see the surrounding area that the flashlight shines on a bit better. however it doesn't fix the problem that the mod fixes, which is for it to shine further. If you don't want mods, increasing gamma and contrast is definitely an improvement

You only need to customize brightness and contrast properly. No need for mods. The game with the default settings look a little bit washed out
@moldarioКүн бұрын
I see that a few people in the comments are doing the same thing. however I love games with proper darkness. I don't want a washed out night time, I want a creepy flippin' night. But enjoying that with the default flashlight (and brightness settings that the devs suggest) is just no bueno.
