Hi all =)

so, I recently redeemed my keys here on Gog, and went for the full saga in a row. I first installed the Complete Mods, and nothing else, because I think they're just enough ^^ But I couldn't manage to get to install the Clear Sky Complete mod ? It says the installer can't find the location of the game.

I tried to put the mod installer in the game folder, but to no avail. Tried to uninstall/reinstall the game : same thing.

Anyone having a clue as to what's wrong ?

(I got the latest version of the mod, and of course, the game version from Gog)

Thanks !

I don't have it installed at the moment and it would be a mission for me to do so now to test, but such things normally rely on the registry for the install path, unfortunately sometimes when people make such an installer they are stupid and don't let the user browse for a location after their installer can't find the desired location.

So you could try make sure the registry entries exists and are correct, which should solve the Complete mod not being able to find the games location.

One way is to manually edit the registry (regedit will work which you can start from RUN (WinKey+R), then type "regedit".

Browse to, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\GSC Game World\STALKER-STCS, in there you should see something called "InstallPath" and it should have a value that matches the location of the game, if that value location is wrong correct it. If none of the paths/entries exists create them.

Or if you are unfamiliar with Regedit you could try this.

Copy the text between the lines and paste it into a text document, edit the "InstallPath"="******" so that it matches where you've installed the game, best to take note that this method uses double \\ in paths to enter a folder.

Once you've edited it to show where you've installed the game save it as something.reg wherever you like, then double click your something.reg file and Windows will ask if you want to import stuff, click yes, then try install the Complete mod again.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\GSC Game World\STALKER-STCS]
"InstallPath"="F:\\Games\\STALKER Clear Sky"

Note that is for a Windows 64 bit system (when will people learn to give system info when asking for technical help), remove the "\Wow64Node" part if you're using a 32 bit version of Windows.

Failing that I remember there also being a "manual installer" which is just an archive that I presume you extract into the game folder (and maybe some things in "My Documents", don't know), which might be worth a go.
