Modder ‘Andrey0007’ has been working on a fan remaster of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl, and shared some new screenshots from it. These screenshots will give you a glimpse at what this fan remaster aims to achieve.
According to the modder, this overhaul mod will replace almost all of the game’s textures with 4K versions of them. Theoretically, Andrey0007 will use AI techniques in order to upscale the original textures. Moreover, the modder will create some new textures for some surfaces and/or objects.
Players can also expect new sounds (from mutants to dialogs and weapons, replacing with high-quality ones, creating and adding new ones), better NPCs (also with some new NPC models), better shaders effects, and more.
Unfortunately, there is no ETA on when this overhaul mod will come out. Naturally, though, we’ll be sure to keep you posted on its progress.
Enjoy!

Looks like he just cranked up the sharpening filter lol. Why do these “modders” keep wasting our time with s*** like this?
Yeah, the sharpening is brutal. It reminds me of Escape From Tarkov.
This ‘remaster’ does not look impressive in any way.
honestly stalker’s textures were never the issue with the game’s graphics.
WOAH, looking forward to this. This “remaster” will make me replay the game again before STALKER 2 comes.
The mod topics are just lame.
Just play Autumn Aurora 2.1 + HD models for SoC Appart from a visual overhaul it modernizes the gunplay and enhances many other aspects of the game, for me that’s the true remaster of the original. A texture pack is ok, but gameplay wise the original title aged like crap.
Amazing walls and floors I guess?
Oversharpened as hell!
Plenty of mods already exist to modernize the game.
Uhhhh, the author should already know theres already a ton of graphical overhauls for SoC that already look way better
OSGR improves the textures and lighting and adds cut content and a bunch of better animations, its a much better “remaster” than just ai upscaling some textures
Texture upscales is not a remaster, we saw that with the GTA trilogy definitive edition
OSGR is a true remaster project, enhanced gameplay systems, enhanced lighting engine (wich honestly makes old games look way better than texture upgrades ever could), and hand crafted enhanced textures rather than sh**ty ai upscaling
And there are a half dozen other mod overhauls that do similar amounts of work in terms of graphics upgrades to shadow of chernobyl
Can this website please stop giving exposure to sh**ty attempts like this one? Stalker has plenty of high quality mods, including graphical ones, and this ain’t it.
Does he not know about Stalker Anomaly? Or perhaps he’s just toying around with AI and learning how to do this himself…
