STALKER Call Of Pripyat 2009 Manual PLP Instructions

Fullscreen (best choice *): SoftTH (DX9 x86). In-game select massive resolution. OR Borderless: In-game windowed, quit. Edit %USERPROFILE%\Documents\ Stalker-COP\user.ltx (if folder isn't there, find in %PUBLIC%\Documents\ S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Call of Pripyat). vid_mode ####x#### yours (no border). ShiftWindow (+ border = borderless. If game minimizes, Alt+Tab back to it & try again).

NOTES:
1. Game looks good, but HUD & FMV videos are stretched. Not a problem.
2. Upon zone change in borderless, must trigger ShiftWindow again (infrequent).
3. * Fullscreen VS Borderless: latter recommended only if at end-game.
A. DX10 lighting option is only available for borderless, but minimal visual difference.
B. Borderless problem: main menu & inventory are completely visible, but partly inaccessible. Both can be used as-is, but inventory becomes pretty annoying.
C. Borderless workaround: use default hotkeys for health, & attempt keeping food on inventory pane's left side. Must occasionally revert to single-screen to sell crap.
4. Optional FOV (not needed, untested): http://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/34-stalker-call-of-pripyat-...
