How To! STALKER Anomaly Installation Guide (UPDATED 2022)

[@scavyboi]

Great tutorial, really comprehensive and easy to follow. Instant sub, have a great day man!

[@mikehunt3420]

At first i was like why the long intro? But the intro along with the full vid are fantasticly concise and informative. No irritating bullshit. I appreciate you being the one who got me to download stalker lol

[@wizarjry]

I be thinking that too sometimes, but unfortunately I can't let a video go without getting what I feel needs to be in there, in there. Much Love homie! ❤

[@mikehunt3420]

@@wizarjry big ups friend. It’s guys like you that keep the internet revolving. Big love from Texas

[@nashandra6634]

Came back to this video after a few years , thanks man

[@wizarjry]

@@nashandra6634 Glad this guide is still helpful 👀

[@raccun9670]

I spent the whole afternoon trying to work it out myself, finally gave in and watched your tutorial. Had it done in 20 minutes 😅

[@Flat_Earth_Addy]

How?

[@Ronnie-Bagpipe]

The 1.5.2. update is out. You still need to download 1.5.1. and follow the instructions in this video, but you just throw the 1.5.2. update ontop of where you put the 1.5.1. files

[@tankaden6406]

Thank you 🙂👍

[@th3p1gkiller90]

ive tried this but just keep getting errors?

[@towerX-]

So this mod is compatible with 1.5.2? Whoops I thought I was watching an installation of the Aggressor mod LMFAO

[@Regan4491]

what do you mean just throw?

[@TheVenom46]

Thanks so much Wizarjry. My stuttering issues were driving me nuts and your fix worked! Now my favourite game looks awesome again

[@chloewebb5526]

I was worried that it seemed way too simple for all Stalker games combined into a 64bit architecture, to just Extract and Go lol, so I came here just in case. Thanks for the vid ^^

[@-Crig-]

same

[@Philipp3022]

100% true :D

[@Bleach-lu9bq]

Thanks for the video man, ive been modding fallout for years and years now and modding it to have the exact same aesthetic and difficulty of stalker before i thought…. “Maybe i should just play fuckin stalker” lol. This was a good jumpstart into modding that game specifically so its much appreciated

[@wizarjry]

I was in the same boat man, fallout fan for years, then Klean did a tutorial back in 2017 on anomaly and now I play Stalker when I want that survival RPG "horror" experience! When you hop in, GOOD HUNTING ZDALGER 🙂

[@jonathanragazzini8780]

Everything worked up until the NVIDIA part. There is NO X-Ray Monolith Engine to be found

[@memedealer5241]

Your video is so much better than the one on the website, it doesn't explain how to unpack the files or anything, thank you :)

[@Dilly-Winkus]

Your guide was great, right up until the "ANOMALY INSTALL" section, which coincidentally is the most replayed section of the video. I can only imagine why. I followed every direction you gave, three times. Where is the X-Ray Engine on the Nvidia panel? I get the launcher downloaded (which required me to download software not mentioned in the video) and opened, but it won't run? I'm glad this worked for many people, but I'm stumped.

[@bloganc]

I think you have to run the game actually, before you see it in the Nvidia menu :), he forgot to mention this.

[@Dilly-Winkus]

@@bloganc Thanks for the response! Unfortunately I think the issue is something different, I get to the launcher but it is basically telling me that it won't be able to launch (I forget the exact message) -- but to be fair, I tried downloading this for like an hour, at like midnight. I just need to give it another try and I'm sure I'll make it work.

[@bloganc]

@@Dilly-Winkus Ya I just spend all day trying to get the Expedition mod to work, which I did, but I find the shaders look worse on than off.

Couldn't find the .exe in control panel? If you click "add" then locate the .exe in your anomaly "bin" folder and select the .exe of anomaly that you use (dx9,dx11)(avx,no avx) then you should be able to edit your settings to what's shown in the video! :)
