  Arma2 Stalker mods, I actually only got two mods to work, both made by DAP or continued from DAP's work.  
The ones the Nightstalker clan worked on , NC , or Shadow of Namalsk , there wa sanother I forget the name ... never worked off the downloads for me.  

 They are ... interesting.  I like how everything works if you script it in.  
I just did not like namalsk as an island , ran very poorly for me ... I do have one mission that is incomplete , but has  a start of recreating STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl ...

 (I've only played CoP ( the latest ) as I figured it was most "updated" of all the Stalkers, but I've watched seen all the "lore" and understand the differences of the games.)

 The Stalker Mod for Arma2 OA , is nice ... it includes working medkits , working rad medicines, working detector , also a working PSI shield, though I do not like using the emmisions ( very problematic, PSI and Emissions kill NPC AI, even indoors. ) ...
 I wish they had "ported" more Mutants from Stalker ...
All the Anomalies in Arma-Stalker kill , and you do not get the wavy "air" indication ... bloodsuckers are OP by default too.

 But there's not really a "survival" aspect in place with the mod.  Not eating, not drinking ... no vodka, lol.
Can't place tents for storage , backpacks have default Arma2 slots.  I can get the Stalker shotgun to spawn in , but seems it's ammo is missing from the resource ...
 The Real Survival Pack is somewhat "working" , the icons do not work though ( I finally tested that ) , and RSP is made more for MilSim-RP , than it is a "survival" modification ... and it will not work with every mod or addon either.

 So it's not perfect ...  and, well to be honest , no one cares about Stalker in the DayZ spotlight anyways.
----------------------

 Real Stalker ... I havent gotten Call of Chernobyl mod to unzip, tried three times ( 3gb, one download ) , kept saying I was missing content, could have been corrupted.  

----------------------

 I actually like the DayZ inventory , over default inventory.  The one for Origins online , is even better ... but of course Origins adds in hats, gloves, mask , quite a bit more " customization".
 I like the melee/rifle switch myself, it seems more realistic to me, than "packing" rifles into a backpack lol.
