Stalker running on PC with Vista - Help to Run

nickmyall · 01-02-2008, 08:50 AM

Hello,

I've loaded Stalker down onto my PC which runs VISTA. The game will load but won't run correctly. I spoke to someone before Christmas about this game (for my Son), he mentioned I may need a patch - Does anyone know which patch I need, where to get it from and how to load this down.

Any help Welcome.

Thanks in Advance.

Cheers Nick

Hello and welcome to Gamershell.

There are known issues with STALKER in Vista and you absolutely must patch it to enjoy the game properly. There are localised patches for different geographical locations, however the latest version seems to be a Worldwide release:
