This chart is obviously not all the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mods available, but a broad overview of many relevant ones and how they're connected. It's a good way to discover new, interesting projects to play in the Zone. The focus being on clear, easy visualization, there will be some oversimplifications and slight inaccuracies, but feel free to contact me (in the About section) if you spot any blatant mistakes.

A: Each mod has its own download link and installation instructions on its individual page. Generally, you'll need to extract the files and follow a couple of simple steps. Make sure to install the Essential Files first found at the top of the page. If you have any issues, refer to the Tips & Troubleshooting section, and the readme.txt found directly in the archive you downloaded.
A: Standalone mods, by definition, don't require the original games, but check each project's features to be sure of any requirements. It's best practice however to own the original games and have them played before starting your modding adventures.
A: The short answer is yes, all mods are curated and tested. However, I do not control all the links / mirrors so I can't vouch for anything happening outside of this website. Always exercise caution when downloading files from unknown sources.
A: Ratings are an average of the grades found on moddb.com, ap-pro.ru and stalkermod.ru, weighted by the number of votes on each website. It's a good way to reflect the overall community opinion of the mod's quality, story, gameplay, and technical polish. Keep in mind that this is a curated list though, and all featured mods are worth playing regardless of rating.
A: Not right now, I'm still working on a big backlog of mods I want to play / review and add to the website. But at some point yes, I'll make an announcement when I need new and fresh recommendations!

Winrar has issues with some files extensions, always use 7zip to extract archives.
