In one of the bases outside the swamp there is a stalker leader called Valarian which is part of a mission, given to you by siboresky. When you get to this base and you speak to Valarian, he gives you a mission. No text comes up telling me I have completed the speaking to Valarian mission, and the new mission (kill some friends of military boss) text does not come up and neither do the kills that are meant to be near base. Is there a bug or something? Has anyone else had this problem?

Better grab hunting rifle and upgrade it for accuracy, headshots guaranteed.
This game is so extremely easy compared to first stalker. Weapons are too accurate.

Seems something is still messed up but it's hard to say what can cause it.
(Everything from bad drivers to sub-components like those VC++ redistributables and DX redistributable to having a program scan the game in the background while it's running such as antivirus programs or not running with administrator rights under Vista when UAC is on.)
It could also be that the game was installed incorrectly or is trying to read information incorrectly in that case deleting the game folder and reinstalling followed by immediately applying the latest official patch (Includes all changes from previous patches.) should help. (Don't forget to download the proper crack for that EXE, Reloaded's should work just fine with 1.5.004 though 1.5.005 will be released next week.)
EDIT: Since you got into the game itself there should be a logfile, normally you just open notepad and press CTRL-V (paste) to copy the error log into a new document, pretty smart solution actually. (Should also be available as a text file in the directory where you're settings and savegames is stored, check FSGame.ltx in notepad to find out where, located in the games install folder.)

Alright so,
Here is the xray_administrator log file in the logs folder,
http://paste2.org/p/76893
If maybe somebody could look at it and tell me whats up that would be cool, i really want to play this game!
oh and if it helps, it did the same thing on XP 32bit also.
I got the reloaded release, then i got that rar fix and then unpacked then mounted and installed, Then i applied the 1.5.004 patch then dragged the cracked files over the old ones.
I did everything correct but i still get the crash.

Just as a thought, you didn't apply the default version of Reloaded's crack on top of the 1.5.004 patch did you? it's meant for patch 1.5.003 if so you need to download the updated version of it which is meant for patch 1.5.004 or you will definitively encounter errors while playing.
EDIT: Log looks fine.
[error][ 87] : The parameter is incorrect.
(Script causes a error on line 87 about a incorrect parameter, this I would say confirms you're using either a bad modification or a old executable which can't read the updated instructions in the patched files such as a updated script file using a new parameter executed via a updated .DLL file which is then processed by the EXE which can't read this new parameter and crashes.)
EDIT2:
"c:\program files\deep silver\s.t.a.l.k.e.r. - clear sky\bin\xrengine.exe" -noprefetch -smap4096 -sjitter -mblur -glo -sunfilte
Don't copy and paste those values without understanding them. 
-noprefetch / Disables prefetching (Pre-loading of game resources) - speeds up loading times but on lower-end hardware this can cause stuttering instead.
-smap4096 / Definitively not recommended on lower end hardware as it'll change the default shadow resolution of 1024 pixels to 4096 pixels, hits performance but increases shadow detail.
-sjitter / Also not recommended on lower end hardware, enables shadow "jittering" which increases shadow detail and realism however it's pretty strong compared to for example Crysis.
-mblur / Enables motion blur but this effect will cause issues on the two "enhanced" lighting modes if R2_Mblur is set higher to 0. in the console or User.ltx file, works fine in other lighting modes but not static lighting.
-glo / This command does not exist as it's short for -gloss which alters the glossiness or specular highlights in the game, I use it for testing as it seems to remove the effect entirely.
-sunfilte / Similar to the above but short for -sunfilter, largely untested so I can't say exactly what it'll alter if enabled.
-silent_error_mode / Disables "BugTrap" error reporting but still generates a logfile to track crashes and other errors, use with -nolog to disable it entirely but it will make troubleshooting difficult.

since the game practically became unplayable to me (CTD every 20 seconds, saves corrupting every 2 seconds) i've decided to install Shadow of Chernobyl with the Oblivion Lost mod, 2.2 version. (didn't play the original game to the end, it was really bugged then also.)
so far i'm having a blast, it's more or less what the original game should have been.
am going to stick playing this until they come up with some fixes for this unplayable clear sky.

Nah Jbeckman, i used the crack that came with the 1.5.004 update download.
And my computer specs aren't that bad,
I have 2gb g-skill ram
evga 8800GT superclocked
amd athlon 6400+ x2 black edition
Not that bad specs, and i know what they mean, followed my lines of tweak guides for the first stalker lol.
But for some odd reason the game just closes down.

I'm having some problems aswell... mainly in the Garbage. I've joined the Stalker faction and there are 4 missions to conquer the bandits. I've completed the first 3. The last mission is to capture the enemy stronghold, the big central building in 'The Garbage'.
A couple of times now I have killed every bandit inside, only to be amazed at what happens next. The game actually forces me to holster my weapon (exactly like when you enter a faction base where you are neutral to)... and that's it. At first I thought I just had to wait for other guys to come and re-enforce me, like so many of the other, smaller missions, but no one came.
A couple of minutes later, bandits spawned in the center of the base and I had once again the same mission in my PDA; 'To capture the enemy base'. What the fuck?
I just left the Garbage and continued with the story (I've just entered the 'Freedom' faction's base... Is there any reason at all to go back to Garbage and solve this mess?
I really like the game, but it needs to be more polished. It has an awesome atmosphere, cool gameplay and a nice sandbox feel, but the goddamn mission bugs are driving me crazy. Didn't they playtest this?

Yep, this game screwed my quicksave about 10 times now. I'm just about to give up.

Amazing game very impressed so far, has that stalker atmosphere.
Any sleeping mods out there, I found one actually but they say it's not very good at all, screws up a lot of stuff plus it's 20 mb, wtf for a sleeping bag texture?

afraid of the dark,eh?
i like the nights.. with the flashlight it's quite ok.
dunno 'bout the atmosphere, though. there's too much shooting going on for my taste and there are too many people all over the place. you can't walk one minute without bumping into someone. which kinda breaks the lonely feeling from SoC.
i'd like a mod that gets rid of the pointless faction wars(since the enemy faction keeps respawning, you have the same fights for the same control points all the time) and brings back the stalking.
