Have you ever dreamt about playing the old, forgotten S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ?
We were amazed by GSC's work when they released the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. screenshots in 2002. The old design, and atmosphere was stunning and we couldn't believe our eyes. Later in 2005 things has changed. They redesigned almost all old levels. Some of them became smaller, simpler (still nice, but different), and some levels were removed. After the release in 2007 we played the game a lot, and quickly noticed that some areas are missing. We opened forums, and talked countless nights about those for almost a year. Nowdays we could say, we have a full vision about GSC's old levels, due to the collected materials, videos and forgotten screenshots. We decided to remake those stunning areas, maybe they won't be the same, but we will try everything to make them look really nice, as we always wanted to see them. In early 2009, GSC released a build from 2004, which contained many old materials. We used some of the sdk objects for the level remakes, but adjusted (and bugfixed) them for our liking, also we didn't throw out our own levels. So expect to see our own Darkscape, Dead City, Rostok Factory and some more in Lost Alpha :)
Also need to say, Lost Alpha addon is not just about levels and levels. We will try to make a somewhat, but not fully restricted alife, and deliver a lot of new, never seen features, among with some old ones, which many people wanted to see for long. If you are interested in, check the Features menu for FAQ, Interview, Features List, and many more. Also do not forget to check the gallery, and the movies. All comments are welcome, also we are glad to see suggestions too, however at this stage those won't be considered.
Thanks for your understanding!
Finally, we would like to thank to the old Stalker Team this wonderful game. Without them, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. wouldn't be a "dream-game".

With this release I am officially retiring from STALKER modding including LA. It has been a fun 14 years or so! As mentioned in my previous article, I will still continue to monitor this page and answer any questions though.
Good hunting stalkers!

Constant crashes on desktop.
This offers no information... Are you playing DC, DCE, or LAR? When does it crash, at the launcher, in game, etc? Does it create a crash log in "X\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Lost Alpha DC\appdata"?
Seems to be stable on "Static Lighting" settings.
What are DC, DCE, and LAR?
It does crash randomly. Sometimes on going to the menu (ESC button), sometimes on speaking with someone, after changing graphic settings, or when simply walking through the Zone.
Long story short: it's unplayable.

Is your PC old? Or, do you use a AMD vid card? LA does not play nicely with them. If you have a combination of an old/potato PC and AMD vid card, then you may have trouble running it as you are here.
Have you tried static lighting as well?
I need help, I want to change the name of the NPC, the file in which I changed this is located in "gamedata/config/text/rus/stable_bio_name". After the change, still displays its old name, what am I doing wrong?
NPC name changes will only appear when starting a new game. The names get baked into current saves.
That's what I thought, thanks
The bloom from the sunlight keeps flickering on and off, any solution for that?
Running LAR, for context.
You can play around with the settings in the console. I use similar settings from what the addon "Brighter Lost Alpha" suggests.
r2_sun_lumscale 1.2
r2_sun_lumscale_amb 1.4
r2_sun_lumscale_hemi 1.2
r2_tonemap_lowlum 0.8
You can change these settings in the "appdata/user.ltx" as well. I typically just use the console though, so I can see changes real time. It will save your new settings in the ltx as well after you hit enter in the console.
Sadly, the only solution I found was changing the distance of the sun, but it breaks how shadows are cast. I'll be trying a full reinstal soon, see if that helps any.
I am not really sure then what you mean by flickering on and off, I have never seen that happen.
