Since the making of this video, we have gotten EXPEDITION 2.2!
This is pretty much the same modpack but on steroids!
Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/dZ2hngr2C9Y/v-deo.html
Hey, do you know why AA doesnt seem to do anything, even when on 8x and SMAA on very high?
the mod has only 1 option: a .7z file. i need it to be a winRAR file so i can use it. (what i mean by this is that there is no option to download it as a winRAR file, only as a .7z file. this option doesnt work for me so ill have to convert the mod from a .7z file to a RAR file using some online file convertion thingy)
@@perrytheplatypus207 I did everything through WinRAR and no problems
K nevermind I figured it out
I'm not sure where the pinned comment mentions filters, but I'm not seeing it here
Thank you so much for this video. I've made attempts to get into stalker so many times but vanilla is outdated and modding is complicated, but this simplified the process immensely.
There's another modpack called Dark Signal made by a guy named Shrike or something along those lines, it's very good, it's basically vanilla Anomaly modded so that nothing new is added but minor tweaks in gameplay and graphical enhancements make the game lose its outdated feel.
Thank you so much, I was always struggling with mod selection. This looks amazing!
Have fun!
Arguably one of the more stable mod packs to put addons with. Tarkov-inspired mods and adding a magazine inventory to this mod pack is a freakin' chef's kiss.
@@meat_coolant i use provak and play as bandid or monolith ..then ..
Clear the first area in dark valley .then after upgrading a little bit starting to raid garbage ..then cordon and so ..I teleportinto the maps which is kinda like tarkovs way of entering maps ...everytime I have enough gear/ended a contract I go back to the entry point and extract ..I don't use save in the areas [only at my base] and I use a highest difficulty settings for ai ..
Plus the zone customization project addon which let's me switch on random loot and also change all amounts of spawing objects and npc chars ..
I set the squad size higher and enable zombie pack spawns...
I could change it to a more tarkov like experience if I disable all non human characters..but I really like chasing bloodsuckers ..
@@meat_coolant Magazine Inventory? Is that the one where you have to manage the ammo in each mag, like spending time loading the rounds into the cartridge and whatnot?
@@ahairyhooligan that's the one, there's even an option for magazine condition too if i remember right.
Super awesome video man, I got tired of fighting frame rates modding FO4 and could never figure out the perfect setup between beauty in performance. I have the same setup as you so this was exactly what I needed to finally have a nice modded shooter that's beautiful and plays smoothly. One of the most useful modding videos i've ever watched yet!
The fuck you on about you can run basically anything on the market rn..
For everyone who’s been wanting to play 1.2 but can’t figure out how to get it to stop crashing when using your inventory or smoking a cigarette I did something that seemed to work. So I have expedition and anomaly installed in files on my desktop, I followed the directions for a fresh install of anomaly then did the install directions for expedition. Go into scripts for expedition and drag the smoking animation and the backpack animation to the desktop. I dragged them to the desktop incase my game crashed worse after this, and to my surprise the game stopped crashing entirely, and the animations still worked even tho the files were on y my desktop and not with the rest of the files. Hope this helps somebody else
You're the man, Trevor! This worked for me and should be pinned.
@@filthypeasant7716 happy to help!
hey, im new with the modding and really want to try this mod without any crash. can you tell me where to find the smoking and backpack animations?
@@Epicern go to gamedata, then to scripts, you’ll see a bunch of files and there will be one with cigarette in it’s name and one with backpack
@@Vic-cp9vu legend, thanks!
Legend, great vid. Havent gone too much into detail on my graphics settings myself but that's about to change! cheers
Trying this after work today. All installed and ready for my first ever play through. So exciting
lmaoo samee, im trying this after work today too... Really just want something that I can lose myself in for hours and be amazed at the sights, sounds, quests, etc.
how did it go?
Yesssss! I asked for this mate thanks a lot. Been using the agressor mod but after watching some of ur vids was curious ti what u was using. Great work mate
Thanks mate, appreciate it, enjoy the video!
Thank you! I was looking for something like this!
No problem my friend!
Great video. Very concise and easy to follow. Nice work dude. Subscribed.
My man, what a tutorial ! thank u so much for this, actually i`m playing exactly how you teach in this video and the game looks amazing
Thank you for putting this together!
I just downloaded this this afternoon and I must say it is a marked improvement over "vanilla" anomaly. Having played through the main quest on the latter, I feel like this modpack adds enough visual improvements and weapon variety to make many more playthroughs of anomaly interesting.
It just gets better with age liike a very fine wine doesn't it, I would like to see these review gurus use EFP or even vanilla anomaly for bench testing instead of the terrible badly optimised AAA crap that they always use.
How do i turn on the filters?
@@Angel_Games09 Press the "home" key for the reshade options.
@@thebritexiteer7956 what is the home key the windows one or is it a other one
@@Angel_Games09 late but its diff lol it says home on it
Straight to the point 10/10 content my guy
Discovering I could turn off the bloom shaders was the huge relief for me. It was damn near unplayable with them on
Its a glitch. on the moddb website it says “delete shader_cache folder from Root/Appdata and replace with identical folder from the zip.”
Ty so much brother
Very informative and calm. Earned a sub. Keep up the good work 👍👍
Thanks for the great Video it improved my Anomaly Performance by a Lot despite being on a RTX 3070 Mobile and when it comes to AA I always have it on because Edges on 1080p doesn't look so stellar anyways xD
Thats awesome buddy!
1 year on, I'll bump this vid :)
Thank you so much for this Brother S.T.A.L.K.E.R
Amazing video! Btw just subscribed, keep the good work up and you might go big!
ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL VIDEO! Thanks for this! 👍👏👏👏👏
Thanks for watching Andrew!
Great guide! Works well!
Dude...you're one of the greatest instructors on UA-cam...PERIOD!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!
I remember seeing this game almost year ago and just forget about it until your vid weeks ago reminded me of this game lol will try the expeditions mod this time 👍
All redy downloaded and its beautiful, thx my friend
YES what a legend. Thank you man!
Thanks for watching man
Awesome modpack! i personaly like to run the "Enhanced Shader" mod with no Reshade at all but thats the best thing about this, gane can look how anyone likes
I clicked the comic filter in reshare and now I've been playing like that for a week, it literally looks like borderlands but stalker but also borderlands
I like how this mod makes Anomaly look so good that youtube thought it was stalker 2 lol
I know right! LMAO-
hey bro nice video :), question: you installed expedition then efp 3.0? can you explain
We asked and you delivered, thank you brother
Enjoy brother!
There is an upcoming series of winter uniforms by Oktopus,I seriously reccomend them for winter map playthroughs (yet another winter mod is the best winter map)
i love this video great work! one sugestion is turn of vsync in game, and enable it in you nvidia settings instead🤘
Hey man great content! i have a question, do u have any idea what happened to 3d/PiP Scopes? i think they got removed for incompatibility with some reshade things. Do u have any info is there is some compatible one with the current version? Anyway, thx very much for the introduction, i really needed the reshade thing to adjust the graphics
PiP scopes are available with certain mods, like Desolation. Not sure how they work with ReShade, but you can try them out if you want.
thanks for this
even though i have a potato laptop and i search for ways to make Stalker Anomaly run better, i will keep this video in mind once i get a REAL proper gaming pc
There are still things to learn here to make it run better :)
Thank you!
I use the reshade of Expedition on GAMMA modpack and it looks great. I would also recommend Dead Zone texture mod, 4k.
how i'am new to reshade and play also gamma
trying to get mine to work with Gamma, so far nuthin
How do you manage to do that ?
lookin good
7:50 on the SSAO settings:
- choose HDAO if you have a AMD graphics card
- choose HBAO if you have a NVIDIA graphics card
Reason? HDAO works better with AMD cards, and HBAO works better with NVIDIA cards, you can still use HDAO even if you have a NV Graphics card, but you will have a much bigger impact on game performance.
Thanks for shining some light on this!
@@CusterPlays No problem
Great video, but I was wondering does the filters option come with anomaly or a separate mod itself cuz I can’t seem to get that window
Neither can I, hope there's a way to do it
@custerplays you have mentioned some important mods at the end of the video, can you please list them?
thanks bud
Thanks man!
No problem Rhino, enjoy it and have fun!
Does Expeditions come with the mods in the mod showcase section or are you recommending those separately?
Neither is a good option, it's a non modular addon soup and the graphical part is just 10x bloom and sharpness
If you want the best experience, get EFP 3.0 or GAMMA
ty so friggen much dude
Great video! I did everything you explained but just a question: how can I enable HUD ingame? Tried to enabling it in game options, console...but still nothing. Cant see my health bar etc...
Same, i just want to see what firemode my fucking gun is on
The mod pack disables it
thank u i owe u my life
Awesome video! New to stalker and new to modding and this was extremely helpful. One question I have is how you opened the filters menu? Home key is doing nothing for me. Thanks!
I did it by hitting the home key, if nothing appears to you maybe you installed it wrong.
But in any case search for "HOME" Key in your country, sometimes it chances depending on the keyboard nationality
You probably need to download reshade
for me hitting shift+home worked
I'm having the same issue
did you ever figure it out?
There is any way to get the mod pack you mentioned in the video or the mod pack you are using?
Огонь👍🔥
what modpack were you using at the end? was it expedition?
great vid
Got in, pressed I, Game crashed.
Hope I can sort that out.
But great content you did there. Really want to dive into that.
Thanks!
Interesting observation: Most of the videos about graphic settings for anomaly recommend to switch vsync off and disable fps limiter but what this brought me was a lot of stuttering. On my PC (5800x, 32gb ram, gtx970) when I switched the vsync back on I get 60fps all the time and the gameplay is butter smooth.
It depends on you pc spec and your monitor
@@dennisdabbicco6238 i've come a long way since in terms of optimizing this game and by far the best thing you can do to stabilise and raise average fps in general is to disable hyperthreading through bios.
@@blastmanutz7798 How does one do that?
@@Chainer34822 go to bios and disable SMT for AMD or HT for Intels.
@@blastmanutz7798 ah ok I figured that’s where I needed to go but wasn’t sure.
Ok so there are HD npcs, mutants, weapons, HD textures, improved lighting and lense effects ect BUT..
All of the scene assets are still low poly in comparison. It would be very nice to know more about modifying game assets using the 3d program of choice so that they had the same overall dimensions, but a lot more detail (smooth edges, round corners, more geometry) and HD textures to match.
Can anyone elaborate if the game maps are 'as is' (models placed in situ and as one file) or if all the individual aspects like tree models, storage tanks, buildings, cars, debris, pipes ect are individual assets that get placed into the map in preset locations on loading? Hope this makes sense.
What I'm getting at is if individual scene assets could be modified to high poly with HD textures say, a drum or pipe or staircase or tree for example was remodeled with higher detail and poly count, then do all of the copies of those objects also get updated in the maps? Or would you have to go through the entire list of maps and replace the objects one by one?
i think they are separate except buildings but not sure
can someone explain what he means by home key when he gets in game and brings up that menu
I’m 8 months late but there a key it says home if your keyboard is smaller and doesn’t have on fn
@@keandreee thanks bud i also had this problem
7 on the num pad
The modpack broke my game thanks dude
What modpack? You cant even get this anymore. You can’t read pinned comments ?
Nice :)
Thanks for watching
I noticed Death Anims aren't included, do you think it'd be okay to add it?
Just a heads-up for people that use shader driven mods, Expedition doesn't currently work/have a patch for Beef's NVGs or 2D shader driven scopes
I was scratching my head for a day trying to work out what caused an error with pp_blur
pp_blur hehe
for filters of choice what button do i press on my keyboard that shows me the options to turn off or on?
Hi one question the expedition comes with the bas? Because when i instal the bas mod my game crash i cant use the bas mod with expedition
Thx ! I'm gonna try your settings !
Also, are you playing in 1440p/4k ? My game look very grainy in 1080p
Yeahs 1440p
Thank you so much
This'll help get many to Anomaly.
Thats the goal my friend!
like the first tutorial ever to not give me any problems along the way. the only thing that kinda bothers me is that the home key doesnt open up the mod panel but it looks great anyway. thx
does the mod only version come with reshade or just the content mods??
Do you change the difficulty settings? If so can you share yours? :D
How do you get your scopes to look so good? I have the expidition mod pack and everything else looks like your video except the scopes. all my scopes just have black around them and the cross hairs are just normal. Can't figure out how to change it
Might give this game a try!
You should man!
Inglês impecável e vídeo também :)
Stalker EXPEDITION Modpack got a 2.0 update on July 14th 2022! Enjoy! :)
So as I started my first character I haven't much choice about the equipment I just had the choice about 3 shotguns and I didn't started at the Rookie village but every other one who plays this mod got more choice of the start weapon and spawned by the Rookie village i spawned by the great swamps so is that normal and comes that from the expedition pack?
do you also have issues with the trees being really grainy
I don’t know if anyone else gets this problem but when I try to instal exposition 2.1 the zip file always ends up corrupted, and I can’t find a way to get a previous version on the mod
Awesome video Custer! Is there a reason that you set the shadow map in the launcher to the lowest setting?
I've always set mine to 2048, only for the reason of not having it at the lowest (aka no good reason lol).
From what ive seen, it improves performance
@@CusterPlays figured that’s what it would be 👍 any noticeable difference in the look of shadows that you’ve seen?
@@JonoLB Maybe if I took pics side by side BUT they look pretty good as it is so...The thing is anything over 2048 crashes the game for me
@@CusterPlays ah interesting. Thanks for the insight my man! Beautiful looking game settings, and I’m looking forward to more Stalker! Good hunting
@@JonoLB Thanks man, appreciate it!
Idk why but the sun rays are annoyingly visible in my game. They radiate from everything and make the game look weird. Any ideas how to change?
Never played S.T.A.L.K.E.R, but damn do you make me wanna play 🔥
Hehehe sorry mate, but you really should
@@CusterPlays yeah man, I think I will! Cheers
@@GugureSux yeah that's what I've heard before, thanks for the input! Cheers :)
@@cloacky4409 went and bought all three games, gonna get into them ASAP!
@@cloacky4409 copy that. Thanks, friend!
Very good looking mod indeed, love it! Thank you Custer.
Me and a few of my friends are also crashing at "Army Warehouse" map while loading in to the map its crashes to desktop, asked on DB no luck, any idea anyone ? try to fast travel to it via debug ?
I keep crashing whenever I go into rostok
Same happens with me, but usually when i'm playing at warfare mode, after a few minutes of staying in army's warehouse, the game crashes, when i checked the logs to see the reason why, it simply said something related to fn scar, i hope they add a hotfix
What are your temps for GPU and CPU while under full load ?
"Wow his game looks great, I wonder what mods and settings he uses to run it"
> 3070 TI
"oh.."
Anyone know's how to bring up the menu for the filters? I press my home key but it doesn't bring it up.
I know this is a bit late but this is currently the most relevant video. Why is my HUD not showing my hp bar or psyche bar. Nor does it show pda alerts. Thanks.
Are you Portuguese? Love your channel bro. Great style and narrative.
I am indeed !
hey, is there a way to disable some of the mods in the mod pack
Hey Custer!
I loved the recommendation for mods (downloaded both Expedition, and B&S and haven't looked back). However, I'm running into an issue and was hoping you could point me in the direction of a fix. I installed both B&S and Expedition, but running into a shader issue (complaining about the Laser Sights). If I delete the file, it turns the entire game green irreversibly. Any idea of how to fix that? I'd love to use all the weapons in B&S, but not sure how to.
Cheers, and loved the video!
Did you installed both the Expedition mod pack and the BS mod?
@@CusterPlays That's correct. The Graphical version of Expedition, and the full BS mod
@@tristanwong3866 Wait, no. One thing is the modpack and that already comes with BS
@@CusterPlays Ooooooooooo! The one I downloaded was the one at the top of the page. That must've been the Graphics only Addon. Is the full pack inside the mod page?
@@tristanwong3866 Yeah, i showed it man
This is a straight up guide from start to finish? Do i need any other tools or patches before i decide to start modding? Or can I just start from this video? For example if I wanted to play Fallout New Vegas, I would need to install a bunch of stuff before I actually started modding, or using a mod manager. Also this is such a noob question, but which stalker game do I need? Theres three but I don’t know which one. The reason I’m so new is because I saw your video on expedition and it seemed really nice, you really got me hooked by just one video.
Ok I just rewatched the video and stalker anomaly is completely free… wtf thats crazy
🤦♂️
Didn't knew Artyom from metro played stalker too..
JK Custer, love you to bits!
Lmfao, thanks man!
For the mighty, glorious UA-cam algorythm.
Thanks man!
DUDE THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS HOLY SHIT POGGGGGGERRRRS
I'm having a problem getting the modpack to work, i followed instrictions for the video but Expedition doesn't seem to be working
Is it safe to say that this mod with graphics improvements are fine to run on a 1080p monitor with a GTX 1070? I know most tubers play this mod on 1440p or 4k
Just wondering about the filters part as my home button does nothing and doesn't bring up the filters tab, any idea on how to fix this?
How do I change the values of the "Red-pulsing" effect in the mod-pack when you're low on health?
It's too vibrant and it's making the game harder to play during certain times of day.
Dose the mod pack have the HD models in it already? If not, what HD models mod would be best to use? Cause there seems to be a lot of them on the website.
Ive only seen one popular/good HD models mod. Were talking about npc/enemy models? It introduces massive lag at hubs/hotspots though so i recommend using one of the better vanilla based model swaps. Very low if not negligible impact on performance, dramtically better looking than vanilla in my opinion. Though we arent gonna get any amazing looking models any time soon that doesnt tank our fps I'm gonna assume.
Hi i recently installed Expedition and it's sort of annoying not having the PDA messages there and it kind of ruins the immersion a bit (i know its not really realistic seeing messages at the bottom left of my screen) but its so nice walking around and then having a fight with a bunch of mercs and seeing what they are planning or people talking about in the PDA. So any luck on fixing this at all?
delete both maingame_pda.xmls in gamedata/config
@@fireengie8488 You're a legend bro
Hey where the home key you mention for the shader settings? The home key doesn’t do anything on mine
Hey great vid I did everything but for some reason the L key doesn’t would u know how to fix
can I change HUD I want to see my health and ammo ?
Thx for the vid
Thanks bro really apreciate it! I just have one problem. Whenever i want to keybind the game to different keys when i press the inventory it crashes. Idk how to fix it. Anomaly version is 1.5.1 and expedition is 1.2.1
@@somename6955 Thank You! That helped me fix the problem :)
@@somename6955 Lifesaver bro I thought I would never find a fix lol
@@somename6955 thank you so much been looking for a fix for like 48 hours now, my game used to start with abso. no sound and idk what I did to fix it I went into stalker/bin and started from the anomalydx11 and i had sound. after that i had the inventory problem. Thank you again man.
