an English language version of the popular Russian mods Narodnaya Solyanka + DMX 1.3.4, from a group led by Tecnobacon. Released July 30th (30-7-2011) as an open BETA test. The mod team is adding new features and rewriting the game code. The standard version retains the dark decayed look of the DMX DKZ 1.3.2 Mod. New texture packs, and revised scripts, offer improved performance. An optional mod add-on, The Collector, is integrated with the package.
Basically an english remake of the extremely popular and vast Russian mod for Shadow of Chernobyl. It's still a WIP, but looks good so far. Am busy downloading it myself now. Here's the feature list from the Russian mod, it's just a bit jumbled because I think the person who posted the thread just used google translate to translate it.
(... from the Russian download page). (BTW, I am a fan, not a mod author).
- 30+ Locations: Cordon, Swamp, Garbage, Dark Valley, Forgotten Wood, Not Reconnoitered Territory, SRI Agroprom, Bar, Wild Territory, Yantar, Military Warehouses, Radar, Pripyat, CHAES1, CHAES2, Sarcophagus, ATP, Red Forest, Limansk, Hospital, Old Village, Generators, Underground Research Agroprom, Lab x18, X16, X10, Varlab, Cave, Labyrinth, Merv, Zaton.

People Soljanka - this is not a game, it is - virtual reality. Here you are guaranteed a different experience with every game. Here everyone can find something to their liking."
The game becomes much better after the Cave level. Be warned, for some of us that love the Stalker series, this mod is addictive "Stalker crack". We can't stop playing it.
