[BUG] invisible ***** during cutscene
spoiler ahead

played the game a bit, only got as far as getting out of sirca after the incident and being sent to find quiet

restarted game a few time after patches came out

during my latest playthrough I got to the slag heap cutscene with colonel and dalin, during the cutscene dalin was invisible, his voice was still audible but there was just nothing there, haven't gotten into sirca yet to see if it's a problem with his model or if it's just a cutscene problem, after the cutscene when i turned around during freeplay he was still not there

started this playthrough before 1.1 patch and took a break and continued after 1.1 maybe that affected it or maybe it has something with the bandaid fix for compiling shaders i saw in the 1.1 log

Wow, weird, to me the general was invisible, not Dalin, I may add however that I played the game from a new save + mods + NO SHADER WARM UP, that may have affected it?

I have the same problem, Dr Dalin doesn't appear and I can't continue playing because I can't leave the building.

I was able to leave the building, I forgot to add i'm using a optimization mod

Optimized Tweaks S.2 from nexus
I play with the no shader compile mod for a month and never had any issues like these of invisible chrs, been through this cutscene like five or six times.

same, Dr Dalin is invisible during the cutscene. Installing Optimized Tweaks S.2 from nexus didn't help.

Right after the cutscene with missing Colonel just type XTeleportNPCToPlayer Korshunov in console and he will appear. To have a working console you need to download UeTools https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/64

This still will not make him appear for me after installing UETools. Something I'm missing?

So I had this happen to me yesterday (more like last night but whatever). After flailing around for a while, the one thing I changed compared to all my attempts before was to leave the factory with varan and his lot with my inventory weight in the green. There's a stash bag downstairs just on the outside from the room with the two bodies that I used to keep the things I want to sell later.
So did that, went to Slagheap and did the quest steps without speaking to anyone else.
I saw a post on reddit where someone mentioend a non spawning issue in a later quest with overloaded inventories so I figured I'd try it.

Also, with the console stuff mentioned above, here's the thing I was gonna try afterwards. These should be the triggers that put them into the cutscene as taken from the .cfg for it.

So to maybe force Dalin to spawn:
XStartQuestnodebysid C_E03_MQ06_TerriconeVarta_Cutscene_TeleportCharacter_Dalin

Same thing exists for the Colonel:
XStartQuestnodebysid C_E03_MQ06_TerriconeVarta_Cutscene_SpawnObjectNPCMonster_BP_NPC_ColonelKorshunov

But I've not tested either of these, what they do exactly or what it actually triggers. So don't just blast these into a save you're not willing to ♥♥♥♥ over. FYI.

May have to reset the quest first, like:
XResetQuestBySID C_E03_MQ06_TerriconeVarta_Cutscene
Maybe?


Good luck everyone!

I wrote the Stalker 2 support Team and they told me, they are currently working on a fix. I wouldnt suggest to manipulate the savegames with mods or random console triggers as you can destroy your savegame completely with that

Absolutely not true. Mods will not effect your saves as you state. I have my game modded out and it has no effect on my saves. I can even remove the mods and put the game back to normal without issues.

There are numerous sequences where NPCs don't show up. I had issues where Korshunov wouldn't appear during the SIRCAA Monolith activation test sequence. I ended up following a tutorial that showed me how to use the console to clear the sequence.

I also encountered something similar.
when the Varta first arrived at the Garbage
Korshunov was invisible in the cutscene and his AK74 was flying in the air. Nothing helped.

Here is the video for Dalin but it also works for Korshunov. You will have to install the Unreal Tools to enable the console. It's more of copy and pasting to get it done. The video shows you how to do this.

Your save file contains modded files, you delete these modded files and the save files could turn corrupt. Just because you havent experienced this, doesent mean that it cant affect the files
