Gold Start Mod (1.5)
Description
I’ve created a few mods for a Golden and Soft Start of a new game!
All mods require the Ultimate Edition of the game (tested on PC).
Z_GoldArmor_P.pak
Modifies the “Shturm” exoskeleton — I made it stronger than “Almaz” in all aspects:
1. Increased carrying weight to over 90 kg
2. 100% stamina regeneration
3. After full upgrade, all stats are almost maxed
4. You start with a nearly fully upgraded exoskeleton
5. No death from falling from great heights
ZZ_GoldTraders_P.pak
All traders sell all items! From Zalesie to Pripyat — no restrictions based on rank.
ZZZ_GoldGuns_P.pak
Modifies several unique weapons:
1. “Sotnik” (aka Dnipro) — no recoil, no spread, switchable scopes, extended mags, increased penetration & damage
2. “Mercenary” (aka SV Vintar) — no recoil, no spread, extended mags, increased damage
3. “Cavalier” (aka M701 Super) — transformed into a beast: large mag, high ROF, maxed stats
4. “Whip” (aka SVU MK C3) — no recoil/spread, bigger mag, full-auto mode, improved stats
5. “Trouble” (aka AR416) — no recoil/spread, bigger mag, full-auto, improved damage
ZZZZ_GoldHabar_P.pak
This is the starting stash that gives you everything listed above:
1. IMPORTANT! If you just started a new game, you can collect the stash at the poppy field
2. IMPORTANT! If you’re already playing, you must not have looted the poppy field stash before — otherwise, it won’t appear
You can still use Z_GoldArmor_P.pak and ZZZ_GoldGuns_P.pak — and if you get the gear later via story, it will still be enhanced.
Installation

`/STALKER 2 Heart of Chornobyl/Stalker2/Content/Paks/~mods/`
2. If the `/~mods/` folder does not exist, create it
3. Open the ZIP archive and choose the `.pak` files you want
4. Place selected files into `/~mods/` folder
Done! Launch the game
