| Hi siriusnator
Yes, you're in the correct section
Would you please post a screenshot of your installation folder - the one with just 38 files?
This should help us find out what's gone wrong
Just checking, but did the installer you downloaded have 12 files (including the Verifier), and did they all add up to 7.22Gb (7,757,576,194 bytes)?
And did the Verifier check the files were okay? | |

| Thanks for this. Your screenshot shows 45 folders and files, which is correct So you should now be able to continue with your installation  My apologies for misunderstanding your distinction between folders and files, as the Guide refers to the total You're doing the right thing so far. If you have any more problems, please let us know | |

| Well, on the step 12 the Stalkersoup fouder have 49 files, not 50. But, the game run smooth, no problems by now, i'm going see Doctor in Cordon, no ctd at all. I think the game is working nicely. | |

| Thanks for the heads up, and I'm happy your game is working smoothly
For the sake of making the Guide more helpful it would be useful to see another screenshot of your installation folder, please, so I can compare it with my Windows 7 install. Maybe it's different in Windows 10... | |

| Hi Guys,
I just finished level up 0 and currently in Cordon to find the 1st collector cache. I just killed a bunch of bandits at the old workshop and when approching the transition to Dark Valley I get a CTD (tried twice, crashed twice).
Log file says:
! error in stalker with visual actors\novice\stalker_no_yurik stack trace:
0023:068E3E87 xrGame.dll
Anyone know how to fix this ? | |

| My guess is that you have a corrupted NPC in that area (Yurek?) and when you get close enough for it to load it is crashing your game. I suggest that you send your save game and explanation to Aleks ( adoler(at)gmail.com ) so he can have a look at it. | |

| I have a weird CTD, I'm trying to go to the Swamp, (the second time, the first time everything was fine), but the image freezes, and in xray it says this:

| I don't know much about the programming side, but from the error I would guess that your game is trying to load a 'corrupted' NPC file. Unless someone else here with more knowledge can suggest something, I suggest that you send a save game to Aleks ( adoler(at)gmail.com ) so he can take a look at it.
As a temporary measure, if it is localized at the entry farm you may be able to bypass it by teleporting directly to the Clear Sky base ([ESC]+[F2] to 'swamp') and then avoid that area for now. | |

| The same effect is with Esc + F2, I'll try some of the previous saves, so I'll see what happens. | |

| Hello everybody, I'm in the Lost Village after bringing Panther to Kolmogor. I get her to safety, I receive the task to protect the village but the helicopters and the military are not spawning. I can see an helicopter behind the power lines hoovering in midair but it just stands there. If I wait I receive the second sms from Kolmogor regarding the other helicopter and the cleaning of the remaining soldiers, but again, nothing spawns so the task doesn't complete. I'm really stuck so if anyone have some advice, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks | |

| Thank s for the answer. I reloaded a lot of times, I even replayed from the Swamp but it's still the same. Panther goes to the hideout, Kolmogor sends the sms and goes to the shack, everyone is taking positions but the military are missing. | |

| Sorry N0uba, I don't know why the attack isn't starting for you. I just replayed this section and the helicopter attack began shortly after Kolmogor sent his "this may be our last battle" message. Please send a save game from before bringing Panther to Kolmogor, with an explanation of the problem, to Aleks at adoler(at)gmail.com so he can take a look at it. In the meantime, there are a couple of info portions* that you could try... derevny_zashita_start begins the attack from where you lead Panther to the bunker. It sounds as if you have already passed this point, in which case you will see a message that the info portion has been removed. In that case try derevny_zashita_have. This will bypass the battle and you should see Kolmogor's victory message. You should then be able to talk to Kolmogor back at the HQ and continue from there. - *Using info portions:
-
Info portions are sections of code that cause things to happen within the game. They are usually called automatically by the game as it progresses, but sometimes things go wrong. If the game does not call an info portion when it should, key game events may not be triggered. The Info Spawn Menu enables the player to call info portions manually. However, using the wrong info portion, or using one before you are supposed to, can seriously mess up your game. Make a hard save first, just in case! - Open the Spawn Menu with ESC then S; - Click the Info tab; - Info portions are listed in alphabetical order and spread over four pages. Use the large left-right arrows to navigate between the pages; - Find the info portion that you need, and click on it; - Click OK, then EXIT. You should see a message telling you whether the info portion has done anything. If it says the info portion has been removed, it usually means that the game has already used that info portion. Try a different one. There is a link to a list of info portions here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (updated to game version 1.1.0019.1).

| Sorry Strelok981, I'm not much good at interpreting programming errors. The LUA error at the bottom points to a program function in file sak.script, which suggests to me that you have a corrupted NPC or item in your game... or I could be completely wrong!
Unless someone else here can suggest a solution, I think your best bet is to send your save game, with an explanation of the problem, to Aleks1970 at adoler(at)gmail.com. Aleks is one of the devs and will hopefully be able to figure out what is wrong. | |

| Okay, good to know. (Sorry, reloading an earlier save should have been my first suggestion!) | |
