Complete repack of Call of Chernobyl version 1.4.12. !IMPORTANT! Please read the description for more details.
For patch notes, click here.
1.4.12 is a new repack of the modification. Please do not try to install it over older versions. It is standalone, please do not install it over Call of Pripyat or any other stalker game.
IMPORTANT:
If you have an existing install of 1.4, delete S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Call of Chernobyl\database directory before overwriting the existing install of CoC with this repack!! This is because about 500+ mb size was cut from textures, meaning there are four textures.db# instead of five. Overwriting without deletion will cause the engine to load that older 5th texture db file.
This repack contains many texture optimizations and *.thm fixes over 1.4. This is the main reason for this repack. Since textures *.db use over 2GB, it made more sense to just repack the modification rather than having a 2GB sized cumulative patch.
Mirrors:
Installation:
You need Visual C++ Redist 2013 x86, if game fails to launch due to missing msvcr120.dll
You need DirectX End-User Runtimes 2010.
- First, realize the Call of Chernobyl is a standalone modification but it requires that you have a valid S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat installation on your PC enable to run it.
- Call of Chernobyl no longer comes as an installer. The entire modification comes in a 7-zip archive. Make sure to update your 7-zip as older version of 7-zip will corrupt the archives.
- Extract S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Chernobyl.7z to a known location. If your Windows user account does not have administration privileges it is recommended you do not install into the program files directories on your C: drive.
- Create a shortcut to the launcher, Stalker-CoC.exe. If you do not know how to create a shortcut, click here.
Addon Compatibility:
Please, read this.
- Call of Chernobyl 1.4.12 is not compatible with any addons made for older versions.
- Absolutely make certain that the addons you are using are specifically made for Call of Chernobyl 1.4.12 version or above.
- It is the responsibility of the addon creators to tell you how to install their addon and in what order.
- It is the responsibility of the addon creators to update their addons to the lastest 1.4 version. Older addons may be removed, especially if it is unclear to the users what version their addon is compatible for.
Resources for Modders:
- AXR Toolset is made available open source to everyone. It has many tools and features that aided in the development of Call of Chernobyl. It has a GUI-based database unpacker/repacker, LTX editing tools and other things that any modder might find handy.
Notes:
- a new shortcut command line option has been added, pass -no_bump_mode1 to skip the loading of _bump#.dds textures for reduced VRAM usage at the cost of reduced bump map detail. Generally this is for people who have crap PCs.
Please read the description for install details. You have the option to continue using 1.4 with the 1.4.12 cumulative patch or downloading the full 1.4.12 repack. This repack contains optimized textures and *.thm fixes that improve the overall look of the game while also reducing VRAM usage. Over 500mb has been reduced from the overall texture directory. Many people, especially with lower end PCs, should see a performance boost.
The patch on the other hand does not contain the texture repack. It exists more or less for the people who don't want to waste time and bandwidth for a 3GB download.
Additionally a new shortcut command line option has been added, pass -no_bump_mode1 to skip the loading of _bump#.dds textures for reduced VRAM usage at the cost of reduced bump map detail. Generally this is for people who have crap PCs.
Many thanks for this, is Mega mirror possible? I'm getting horrible speeds on moddb
Mega.nz
Sir is the mega link down? I'm unable to download the file on any network (wifi or cellular).
Is this version stable, or just a testing one?
Install FlashGet (if you are using Firefox install FlashGot plugin first). Start downloading the file, choose FlashGet, and when started, in OPTIONS, select ACCELERATED (SEGMENTED)DOWNLOADING, and click on 2 or 3 segments. Downloading will be a little faster and you can PAUSE, reboot your PC, and continuing downloding. Hope this help.
Hi I found your mod a month ago and I start playing it. I went from The Great Swamp where I started through Cordon,Garbage,Bar to my final destination Zaton. I was doing assasination quests and other things :D. But I got this problem where Iam stuck in a Jupiter. I wanted to go back through Red Forest but when Im in loading screen it says: Lost to the Zone and when I click something It goes into the Game over screen and every possible mutant near me. Is there some kind of patch or advice? Just asking because I dont want to start over now :D
Got the same problem... Looks like it happens if an Emission occured. The NPCs around me die, or turn to zombies, or rip appart, depending on what option I select.

Maybe enabling god mode can help. Never had this problem
I had a problem like this too. It occoured when an emission did not have a starting mission message, dealt no damage and did not end with a mission complete message. So when I loaded into a file, there was an ongoing lethal-stage emission with no safezones. I bypassed the error by loading the closest save I had and when the emission arrived I popped a zombie drug.
Try this: type in game's shortcut in target -dbg and then when game opens in console type g_god on
Problem should be solved
What version of Call of Pripyat is compatible with Call oF chernobyl?
Latest :)
You won't need Call or Pripyat, as this is a standalone mod.
But there is writed in FAQ, that COP is needed for COC, but not what version. Also, is this matter what launguage i have in COP? Will same language work for COC?
You need to have COP installed somewhere on your computer. YOu have to install COC in empty directory, so version and language of your COP don't play role
You need it for legal reasons (they use assets from that game), but is not required to run the game. CoC and CoP are standalone games.
If you download this version (1.4.12) you just have to extract it (the 7z file you downloaded from this page) and you can play the game.
Thanks, Have crashing all the time wit error that i have not enough space in magazine for launch some command. Support is quiet.... since week
Hi I have a question. as it is standalone, can I play it if I have a modded version of the game?
see reply my latest reply to vlad_8011's question ;)
Вопрос у меня не запускается и не устанавливается игра?! скачал с этого сайта что делать ?
Hi Alundaio, Hi at the Team EPIC,
I'v talk with DoomedOne and Stalker1994 (translators) about le file CoC exe who seem to be corrupted.
decompressé do CoC
The file is systematically quarantined after opening the decompressed file of CoC with this signature:
RDN/Generic.sts(Cheval De Troie) (in french with McAfee anti virus).
To tell us deactivated our anti virus is in my opinion a crude error! You have started a job and you have to finish it correctly. Please correct this problem that many people meet.
With all due respect, I greet you.
Hi, Coc don't detect my CoP, i had it on an old hard drive, i transfer it on the SSD with Coc, i launch it, CoP work just fine after the transfer. But Coc still don't detect it. Do you have any clues?
Is there a torrent? I know it's silly but I don't want to make a Mega account, specially because the stupid site stopped my download at 24% because "it would exceed the limit". THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY THAT BEFORE I STARTED IT? Urgh.
Anyway, I'd really like a torrent since moddb downloads are not only slow but they also have a tendency to fail midway through it.
Are there any mods that make the player character move a little more realistic? What I mean is, When in towns I like to walk around with my gun away and in 3rd person. I don't mind how stiff the animations are but I would like something that makes it so my character doesn't throw his hands down to his sides when he moves. When he has the bolt out he jogs like a semi normal person. Something like that but without the bolt in his hand. I know it might sound small and stupid, but it would help me immerse myself a lot more. Maybe a key bind that lets you sit at fires with other stalkers or just stand looking normal. Instead of battle ready at all times.

Where i pass this command??? -no_bump_mode1
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
Does it really need a currently installed CoP directory?
no you don't need CoP insalled you can just skip the reg
how, when i try to lauch the mod it says that it could't find CoP installed
thx a lot Alundaio
downloading right now
12 is a good number. My 1.3.12 version game has lasted over 9 months now.
:D hhhhhhh , good one :D
1.4.12 play-through when?
Tejas has to spend 12 years in the Zone as a social experiment
Wait, is that 12 in game years, or legitimately 12 people years.
Where i pass the command line -no_bump_mode1? do you know??
Had a game similar to Tejas. But the game became so unstable i just gave up on it
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
Am very curious whether it is more stable than the previous versions. The previous versions are impossible to play, whether with addons or vanilla, with DX 8 to 11.
How unlucky
Finally. Thanks Alundaio :)
Mega mirror is now available: Mega.nz
Thanks a lot, looking forward to messing around with Nimbles inventory
But will old savegames (1.4.10) work without new-game?
well there were no changes to the saving structure. So unless you have broken save caused by something that has been fixed then there shouldn't be a problem.
That's really nice to know!
Thank you for all your hard work on this brilliant mod.
Am I only one having trouble with scopes? The scope textures are way off from screen and unusable....
i try to use the binoculars, and they are in a corners, like 1/8 of the up/left screen
I am also having this problem, please fix.
