Currently Playing: 3 Easy Ways to Install MODS for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2

I'm a bit late to the party with this one, but I wanted to do a complete modding tutorial for Stalker 2 for a while now, and finally took the time to do it! So here's a complete guide on how to install mods, use different mod managers, understand load order, conflicts, and also how to use Reshade. Hope it helps! ---------- Mods Folder Location : Steam: .../Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl/Stalker2/Content/Paks/~mods GamePass: .../XboxGames/S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2- Heart of Chornobyl(Windows)/Content/Stalker2/Content/Paks/~mods If there's no "~mods" folder, create one and don't forget the "~" symbol. ---------- NEXUS MODS https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl VORTEX https://www.nexusmods.com/about/vortex Should not be needed anymore but if you can't find STALKER 2 in Vortex use this: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/958 ---------- MOD ORGANIZER 2 https://www.modorganizer.org/ https://github.com/Modorganizer2/modorganizer/releases STALKER 2 PLUGIN https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/631 SteamID should be 1643320 (not 583675) ---------- Reshade: https://reshade.me/ Presets Collection Chornobyl Exclusion Zone: https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/676 Real Stalker: https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/225 Principle: https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/1295 World on Fire: https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/146 The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone Presets are installed pretty much the way its shown in the video, for Real Stalker / Principle / WoF the installation requires a few more steps. You can check the mods descriptions for all the details, but the idea is: - During Reshade Installation, on the effects page, Select the preset you're using with the “Browse” button at the bottom to automatically select / download the used effects - Copy the "reshade-shaders" folder they come with into your .../Stalker2/Binaries/Win64 folder ---------- 00:00 Intro 01:10 Manual Mod Installation 02:59 Understanding Load Order 04:15 Using a Mod Manager: Vortex 06:36 Mod Collections 07:15 Mod Organizer 2 09:36 Reshade - Check details in Description
