📋 About This Mod
Extension that adds unofficial support for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky to Vortex.
Description
This extension will add "S. T. A. L. K. E. R.: Clear Sky" to list of games supported by "Vortex".
Also, be sure to have full folder structure in "gamedata/configs", as game always checks entire folder for files. Even if it has not any game/mod related file. As Vortex, will create "__folder_managed_by_vortex" file in folder it creates, you will have infinity loading bug. As i'm
mentioned above, game will try to read any file that located in "configs" folder, include "__folder_managed_by_vortex" file. (This happens only with "configs" folder) I will also add fix for this, if you can't do this manually!
How to install
Require "Vortex" for this extension to work. There is 2 ways to install.
1. In "Vortex" go to "Extensions", click "Find more" button, search for this extension.
2. Download manually from site and extract to "C:/UserName/AppData/Roaming/Vortex/plugins". Also you need "Show hidden files and folders" set to on, before install this extension this way.
How this works
Similar as "Vortex" supported mods, just add archive of any mod, then install it. Also, first folder in archive must be "gamedata" not "FolderName/gamedata". Extension will now auto-detects if there is "gamedata" or "bin" folders inside of downloaded archive.
"S. T. A. L. K. E. R.: Shadow of Chernobyl", "S. T. A. L. K. E. R. Call of Pripyat", "S. T. A. L. K. E. R. Call of Chernobyl" & "S. T. A. L. K. E. R.: Anomaly" have it own "Vortex" extension.
You also can drag folders into "Drop File(s)" box, so Vortex will create "7z" archive for you. (Newer versions of Vortex seems doesn't create archives, but still can install mods without creating archives)
Extension also have FOMOD support, so if mod do have one, you can just probably drop that archive into Vortex "Drop Files(s) box. Without repacking entire archive.
