crash on shaders compiling

[Ellebelle]

divers have been reinstalled and everything help

[Ninefinger]

you can skip it and try that, shaders will compile on the fly and wont be precompiled but I suggest using this Engine.ini found in AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\Config\Windows. if the file does not exist just create it and paste this into it.

the part that skips the compiler is this

This worked, I was having a crash after the Shaders would take forever to compile then get stuck. Thank you!
