Strelokkkkk has announced that his remaster project for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl will release soon. In order to celebrate this announcement, the modder has also released a brand new gameplay trailer that you can find below. This trailer will give you an idea of its visual/graphical improvements.
According to the modder, Stalker SoC Remaster will have 4K skyboxes and a new particle system ( with dynamic collision with static objects). Moreover, it will increase the poly count for NPC ( up to 70/80k). It will also increase the poly count for mutants and for some static and dynamic objects.
Not only that, but this remaster will feature better god rays and lighting system. As such, the game will have a more natural and less bright look.
Last but not least, this mod is compatible with GoG international version, and will be 30GB in size.
Enjoy the trailer and stay tuned for more!

waiting for new stalker game since 2010 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ce7f6c7edd65b9f1974004867748341c95102e377078830229a2936ef4b193eb.jpg
Playing stalker mods since 2010
WOuld be nice a before and after comparison since the original already looks damn good.
To quite honest I’ve yet to be impressed by any of those graphic mods.
They usually always overdo the effects and spend too much time on texture resolution, not even caring if it fits next to each other.
This one doesn’t impress either.
It honestly suck fat d**ks, i don’t understand why this gets an article…
You are r**ard.
Your mom
I agree.
Plus this is “Remaster”, shouldn’t it be “Remastered”?
Whatever, this article is just a longer description for a video.
Perhaps it gets an article because there are people who are interested in this, and the internet isn’t just about you?
Stalker is one of my favorite games actually.
Check out Stalker Lost Alpha, is a bit hard to follow the news for it since they are in Russian but it has so many fixes and additions that it feels like what the game was intended to be.

Looks great. I haven’t played the original as standard in ages, play all the mods constantly though. So next time I give the original standard game a run through I will definitely use this.
At first, I agreed with some people here saying it wasn’t impressive, but I’ve been comparing with other graphic mods, and after all, it does look like it could be the best.?
I think it looks very colorful sometimes, though. It won’t be for everybody, especially people wanting to preserve the depressing washed-out colors of the zone.
On the negative side, I think nights are insanely dark, literally pitch black, and that’s too extreme…
