The 'Weird Water' artifact has to be bugged

[FallenActual]

Looking at this post to confirm how easy it is to see and some know spawn locations, I have been reloading a save in the anomaly field at 21:55 for multiple hours for the past 3 days and have not got it to spawn.

It is not easy to see at all. It took me good 15 minutes blindly moving around to actually find it. It is very much possible I overlooked it as there is no distinct indication you have found artifact--everything is greenish yellow and the anomaly can hurt you if you get too close, which you have to do to actually spot it.
Could it be bug? Possibly, sure. Stalker 2 is not beyond such possibility...

I mean it looks pretty obvious to see in those photos and i have my gamma, contrast and brightness maxed out

I've spent around 3 to 4 hours tying to find it, reloading A LOT just before 22:00, like ppl that got it suggest. Havent found it, pretty sure it must've fallen trough textures when I was in this area for the first time and its not respawning.

everything is obviousl once you know. It's really hard to spot. I've found mine on "first try" randomly wondering for 20mins? and it was in the dark on the ground, not even in the light at the time, and you see it once you are 1-2m away.

Yes I hoped maybe my installed mods messed with it but it's still not spawning in vanilla.

I picked this artifact up last night. Waited for night time and for the glowing green blobs to appear, ran in and found the artifact sitting on the ground around the middle area.
