Travel all the way west and then south. You'll see it's the area where you first entered the portal chain. The doorway that you entered this area from is still open. Just make your way back through the power plant.

See Kany's fix.

I think it will be ready on next weekend, not sure. I don't want to promising like gsc. Anyway the mod is crash-free, just minor things needed, so don't worry.

About the unofficial expansion pack I did..

1. In my first release I wrote "ALL credits goes to KANYHALOS - it's his mod I just tweaked it a little". Thats all about being: "disrespectfull" - Kany's quote. And so much as being a thief which steals others work.

2. I called it "Unofficial" so tell me who can be dumb enough to blame Kany for the errors/bugs? Also I stated clearly: USE ON YOUR OWN RISK! If someone can't read - well that's his/hers problem.

3. I TRIED to contact Kany! I don't care what he thinks about it - I know the truth. Unfortunately, no replies from him came. And there was no reason for me to lie to him - if I wanted to lie, why I wrote in the readme that I dont have his permission, and I encourage him and others to contact me if the permission is denied?

4. Sorry but I must say it.. The way Kany acted was.. well.. not right. I told him the truth and said "sorry" many times. And what he did then? He insulted me MANY times! He called me a "lier" "jerk" "idiot".. well "kid" was kinda nice, but I'm not that young anymore.. Maybe it means nothnig for you Kany but I was (and still am) a fan of your mod, and by it a sort of fan of you.. You disappointed me greatly..

BTW you violated Filefront's rules by insulting me by comments!

5. Kany's mod is "not free to ruin" and only he "can understand the ideas contained in the gamedata". I must agree.. most of. But IF my mod was a ruin, why about 250 people downloaded it the first day?? Why I still have no e-mails about any bugs? Yes Kany, only you understand the mod as a whole. But my knowledge was enough to tune some unvital parts of it, and probably I did it right (no complains to date). And people liked it (probably that's why you was so angry)..

6.The reasons why I did it? For the community. For users which, like me, LOVED your mod, but was unable to include some famous/cool mods in it. And.. for comments. No, not for phrases like "you are the best" but for some constructive criticism. I thought it will help YOU Kany improve your work. I thought letting you know will be the best way for you to make it better.

7. I think that now I understand you better.
Well - see the title! "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Oblivion Lost (by Kanyhalos)"
BY KANYHALOS! Clearly stated, just like "Do you hear people?! I'm one and the only!!" "I did it!! It's MINE!!".. just like "My precious!!" from "Lord of the rings".
It's not bad you think of it that way - you have right to do it! My mistake was that I misjudged you, thought you are different. I judged you by the mod - "nice mod - nice guy". Want to say "sorry" now, but will not do it - don't want to make you angry again.

The second think that I understand now is that you was afraid of "bug reports". Yes, I should have think about it in the first place.. but anyway - already explained it (see 2).

Also I think you don't care much about other's opinion - it's your vision, and you will do what YOU like. And that's not bad at all.. Just want to say I didn't know it in the first place.

You are verrrrrrrrrry rude kanyhalos, that's not the first time, i saw your replies on other forums, it is strange that many people are involved in "your" mod and the only name that can be seen is "kanyhalos". Then the title could be longer: ol mod by amk, by srp, by abc, by dez0wave, by natvac, by kanyhalos ....... i just wanted to download that unofficial pack and play it because a friend of mine told me about it, now i can't ... "your" mod is simply a set of someones hard work, merged and called "by kanyhalos" and you accuse "Zaero" that he released an UNOFFICIAL pack?! So do you remember what you said when redux team forbade you to release your mod?

"Are you enemies of the simple (not modder) fan players' community?
I want to give the most enjoyable mod ever made to all fans who likes playing stalker! I think your most important thing is to hype yourself, not the improving the performance of the community!"

GSC Game World - Community

SHAME ON YOU !!!

[Kanyhalos]

I explain my opinion.

At first, it's NOT important how famous I am, it would be childish. This is just a game, not a real life thing. I don't understand why do you takw this seriously.
I do not.
I don't wanna hyping myself, lol, why should I? Hyping myself with a computer game?
I want to make a good job on the stalker, because I was waiting for this game long time ago, and I was seriously disappointed when I first check the vanilla game.
That was the start when I started modding it.

About add-ons, why I don't like them:
If someone release an add-on, and it will cause errors, then the players will claim them as my bad.
Also I will be totally unable to fix the errors, because I don't know what he edited, and it's not my thing to check other files which made by other person.

And..What will happen, if I post a bugfix today, because find a bug, and that will be incompatible with the add-on, and game crashes?
It should confuse me, and pissing off the players, and I can't help them.

Next time if somebody want to make an add-on, then please contact me, and send me the files, I'll check them.
You must understand that, this mod is very complex, and really hard to change something without errors or bugs.
Did not said that it's impossible just very hard.

Anyway yes, sure, I'm using so many code from other mods, lol, who does not, just look into the credits, I always asking everybody for permission before I do anything.

I do not think that I am bad with this.

Zaero,
if you still want to release your patch, then you should send me your files, and after I decided them CRASH-FREE, the you will have got my permission.

[Zaero]

Is this the same you? Hope so.. well the file is pretty big, and it was hard for me to upload this.. Maybe Filefront still have it? I heard they just made it invisible. Just ask the Admin, maybe he will be able to send it to you. I'm currently adding some new adjustments so I don't want to send the screwed version this time! Tell me the results of asking Admin and we can talk about it tomorrow, ok? Now, goodnight everyone!

PS. If you want to contact me both mail and PM me - don't trust my mail provider no more..

[S.T.A.L.K.E.R.]

Ok, spam deleted. Insults removed.

This argument stops NOW. If Kanyhalos and Zaero wish to discuss permissions to release an unofficial fan made add on they can do it via email.

As for the files, when Kanyhalos told me he denied permission (and after I asked him again, and told him my views on it) I deleted the files from the site.

[Kanyhalos]

OK. At last words. I'll contact with Zaero.

BUT:

DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ERRORS AFTER YOU INSTALLED HIS PATCH!!
If somebody do not use my original files, then I unable to handle to errors.

[Zaero]

I agree. And that's fine you deleted it - I should still have them on my hard drive. Kany what's the most comfortable way of sending them to you? (It's a huge file, remember)

[Kanyhalos]

Exact size?

Ok, nevermind, compress it with 7z and upload to rapidshare.de and send me the link via email
