4. Install<br />

<br />

You can install the OLMod with the Stalker Mod Manager!<br />

<br />

You do not have the Stalker Mod Manager? How to install OLMod on your own:<br />

- Go to your S.T.A.L.K.E.R Install-Directory<br />

- Create a new folder called 'gamedata' (if it is already there proceed with<br />

4.1)<br />

- Extract the archive in the new gamedata folder<br />

- Start your game and enjoy the OLMod! ;)<br />

<br />

4.1 Merging with other Mods<br />

If you have installed other Mods, make sure, that there are no files<br />

overwritten by OLMod to keep your Mods!<br />

To merge specific features, please look in part 6 'Which file does what?' of<br />

this ReadMe and copy the specific data in the specific directories or just use<br />

the Stalker Mod Manager!<br />

<br />

4.2 Playing with the german version of STALKER<br />

If you have the german version of Stalker, please delete the<br />

configlocalization.ltx and rename the localization_GER.ltx into<br />

localization.ltx. Then just go on with the normal installation.<br />

<br />

4.3 Playing with any other language besides English and German<br />

If you do not have any of these two languages installed, then you need to do<br />

multiple things.<br />

- Open the config folder and open the localization.ltx with a text editor<br />

-> Change the second line: 'language=eng' into your language abbreviation and<br />

save the file<br />

- Open up the configtext folder<br />

-> Copy the 'eng' folder and rename it into your language abbreviation<br />

-> Problem: You now have many english text parts in your game.<br />

-> What to do against that? (Advanced and NOT needed!)<br />

-&raquo; Extract your gamedata.db* files to your Desktop f.e (Start with<br />

gamedata.db0 and end with gamedata.dbb)<br />

-&raquo;> (Use the STALKER Unpacker found on multiple internet pages)<br />

-&raquo; Now open up the new Stalker folder and open up the configtext folder<br />

-&raquo; Now open your language folder and copy these two files into a new directory<br />

on your Desktop f.e :<br />

-&raquo;> stable_dialog_manager.xml & stable_dialog_manager_uni.xml<br />

-&raquo; After that, also copy the stable_repair_dialogs.xml from the OLMod to your<br />

new Desktop directory<br />

-&raquo; Now use a program like 'WinMerge' to merge the new stuff into your language<br />

files and save them<br />

-&raquo;> If you want to, you can now translate the stuff and play completely in<br />

your own language<br />

-&raquo; Now you can install the OLMod and after that overwrite the changed files<br />

with your new ones<br />

-&raquo; Have fun after your hard work! :)<br />

5. Uninstall<br />

<br />

Use the Stalker Mod Manager or just delete the gamedata folder you have<br />

created!<br />

If you have just installed specific files, then delete these specific files<br />

again.<br />

(To find them, you can use part 6 'Which file does what?' of this ReadMe!)<br />
