just to be sure... i won't be able to continue with my current saves after i install the new (russian) patch 1.5.04 ?

If so this is plain bullshit and i'm thru with this game.. i already lost my progress once because i forgot to patch to .03 right after the install...

Yes you need to start a new game after applying patch 1.5.04.

Seems they fixed bug in settings, now you can move lighting distance & shadow quality slider in enhanced full dynamic lightning (DX10) mode.

Well I didn't find crack for 1.5.04 so I installed the game and 1.5.03.
Unfortunately, Starforce protection still work despite the dll trick.

"A crash has been detected by BugTrap"
I get this error : xrEngine.exe caused ACCESS_VIOLATION in module "C:\Program Files\GSC World Publishing\Ñ.Ò.À.Ë.Ê.Å.Ð. - ×èñòîå Íåáî\bin\protect.dll" at 001B:01C2B500, Ordinal2()+604734 byte(s)

What should I do ?

I've been reading the anti-starforce forums for a while via google translation and it seems there's no reliable way to play with patch 1.5.04 as using the XPatch_04.db file by itself will cause crashes and the modified crack seems to have issues with level changes, seems you might be able to reach cordon from the swamps but you can't continue up to the garbage area.

Great. So basically I just need to install russian release, patch to 1.5.04 and apply crack files ?
And does it work with English full localization files ?

Yup same for me, the cracked protect.dll thingy isn't working with the game patched to latest 1.5.0.4 using the following method :

1. Install game using Daemon Tools.
2. Apply patch 1.5.0.3
3. Copy cracked protect.dll to game directory (DON'T DELETE ORIGINAL FILE! Just rename it to protectXXX.dll).
4. Run game from /game dir/bin/xrEngine.exe
5. The game will crash (BugTrap)
6. Unmount disk image form Daemon Tools
7. Delete cracked protect.dll file
8. Rename protectedXXX.dll file back to protected.dll
9. Now you can run the game FROM SHORTCUT ON YOUR DESKTOP.



I could try with 1.5.0.3 but oh well... Not sure I want to play the game not patched up to latest version

I might as well give up since it's taken me all day to try to make it work... for nothing.
Now I'm worried I had to install crappy SF drivers and I don't even know if there's a way to clean those 100% ...

give it up man, same problem for me...if u patched to 1.5.0.4 ur basically fucked until a REAL crack comes out...its either that or uninstall and revert back to 1.5.0.3 which I am not going to do so i think ill just wait it out..I am not going to play this buggy shit until there is a russian crack 1.5.0.4 release.....whoever said that there was a crack out for it, lied because I have searched almost everywhere and no luck

There is crack for 1.5.0.4. I found it at a russian forum. Closed the website and can't remember the address though, maybe someone else can link it, but it's working very nicely for me; don't even need to use the protect.dll trick anymore.

OK , Game ver. 1.5.0.4 working !

* Install game
* I made a backup of different dll files & protect.dll (bin folder). (5.60.1.21)
(you can find files on asf forum, p.6)
* Install patch 1.5.0.4
* Replace backup of files & dll
* Use mini image
* Launch game ok

Edit : name of mini-image STALKER_CS.iso (23mo)

And , something important :

If i mount mini.i , wait its mount , and i launch game > Failed.
For a working launch , i need to mount Image and Launch game second after ( during msg for DT mouting image)

ps: if someone want file to replace , pm ( i dont know if i can post rs link here)

Interesting I was using the 5.60.1.23 version...

EDIT : to be more precise, protect.dll is 5.60.1.23 version once patched up to v. 1.5.0.4 but the cracked protect.dll I used initially is 5.60.1.18.

So you're saying the cracked protect.dll you apllied (as opposed to the original protect.dll) is 5.60.1.21 version ?


Can you tell me what's the name of the mini-image ?
Merci beaucoup Teniak : D

So what protection does the english release use? Is it starforce too?

Release date is completely set back to the 12th here in holland, not one shop's got Clear Sky in stock. Everyone said it won't be in stores till next week... Sad ffs...

English version is protected by TAGES. Smile

EDIT: Clear Sky is also available as a digital purchase from here.
http://dlgamer.com/
(My own retail copy shipped Friday so it should arrive next week, hopefully GSC will have finalized localization of the patch by then but as I mentioned the Russian patch also includes text changes from most other languages though it can't be used without the proper engine changes to the files in the /Bin/ directory.)

I thikn so, just that AFAIK they can't people outside of Europe (more specifically the US) download it or something like that due to legal issues.
Keep in mind I can be totally wrong. :O

am stuck...and curious about holding capturing points in the game....a quest i have been given wants me to hold a point till help arrives...i sit there at that area, for almost a day(in game hours) and no fugger arrives, have i to do something/hit a key or something or is that kinda quest there to make the game take longer to complete?

...or is it another one of the bugs in the game-i actually bought this game too LOL
