📋 About This Mod
CARRY WEIGHT – 80 KG
Balanced Carry Weight & Stamina System
More carrying freedom without removing the survival challenge.
VERSION 1. 2. 2 — REGRESSION FIX
DESCRIPTION
Carry Weight – 80 kg increases the standard carry capacity in S. T. A. L. K. E. R.: Shadow of Chernobyl from
50 KG → 80 KG
while preserving the original game's weight, stamina and overload mechanics.
This is not an unlimited-weight or infinite-stamina mod.
The goal is simple:
YOU CAN CARRY MORE — BUT EVERY KILOGRAM STILL MATTERS.
Progressive stamina drain based on carried weight
Heavier loads reduce effective sprint duration
Overload remains an important gameplay mechanic
Extreme overload prevents movement
Artifact stamina effects are balanced to prevent infinite sprint
WHAT'S NEW — v1. 2. 2
Version 1. 2. 2 is a regression fix.
The established carry-weight and stamina balance from v1. 2. 1 remains unchanged.
ELECTRA ARTIFACT FIX
-
[]Restored vanilla radiation behavior for Sparkler, Flash and Moonlight[/]
[]Electra artifacts no longer generate additional radiation[/]
[]Retained the mod's tuned stamina regeneration values[/]
[]Infinite sprint prevention remains intact[/]
[]No changes to carry weight, sprint, jump or overload balance[/]
-
[]Sparkler — 0. 00015[/]
[]Flash — 0. 00020[/]
[]Moonlight — 0. 00025[/]
All three Electra artifacts retain vanilla radiation behavior:
radiation_restore_speed = 0. 0
GAMEPLAY BALANCE
