wondering about mods

[yogurtstrawberry2]

are there any must have mods I should use on a first playthrough I thought about stalker anomaly but I heard thats a standalone game so any other mods i should use?

Anomaly is the last mod you should play if you're a newcomer. For a first playthrough, nothing is recommended. CoP is very polished already. Maybe a FoV fix and that's it.

John buys a game he's interested in.
John is told there are must have mods.
John plays the game as is and gets his money's worth.
John enjoys free mods now that he finished what he paid to play.

John is a normal person, driven by his own needs and interests rather than people's opinions.

i got these mods and worked perfectly fine the first day but today the game stops responding while loading in to the map and never loads to confirm it i waited a solid 15 minutes and it never started responding again

so changing the lighting from Enhanced Full Dynamic dx11 to Enhanced Full Dynamic seems to have gotten it to start

I kinda gotta agree with Psy least first playthrough. How are you gonna know what the mods improve if you don't play vanilla?

Because I have seen a playthrough of stalker cop (it was years ago so I don't remember much story wise) and I've played the other games
they don't change the weapon animations very much in-between games so gunslinger (which is mostly just animations) doesn't really change anything I haven't already seen and atomos fear is just weather stuff I had also already played a portion of the game before installing any mods (investigated most of the helicopters)

Is this a joke? Look at Shadow of Chernobyl's weapons, then look at this game's and say this again.

You could have finished the game by now, instead of wasting time for three days here.
