STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl X 46 Advanced Battlearmor Suit Mod description
This exoskeletal suit is a new protoype modification of the original battlesuits designed for extra-planetary combat

On the afternoon of April 12 in 2006, a massive explosion shattered the Chernobyl area and the rest of the world.

The Zone, as the area got to be known, was characterized by anomalous energy disturbances, rendering even the most advanced form of protective suits worthless to would be rescue teams. Months passed and nothing could be done. The military quarantined the area to prevent unauthorized entry and perhaps even reassure the local populace that the area was under control and confinement.

Almost 4 years after the initial event, expeditions can now safely traverse several kilometers deep into the Zone. Among these are the Stalkers, poachers that enter the zone searching for artifacts and anomalous formations that are highly sought after by certain organizations and groups. The player controls a Stalker, venturing into the Zone in order to acquire information, technology and artifacts to sell and possibly put a mysterious puzzle together.

Avoiding the dangers within and the military because as a Stalker you are effectively a thief, and the army that has quarantined the area, don't take kindly to trespassers. Within the Zone you will have to detect and avoid the bizarre phenomenon's (anomalies) that plague the area, avoid or eliminate various kinds of mutants and you can even expect competition from other Stalkers.

Here are some key features of "STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl":

Note: X-46 Advanced Battlearmor Suit:
This exoskeletal suit is a new protoype modification of the original battlesuits designed for extra-planetary combat by Rexler Industries for the United States Air Force. The battlesuit is built from new a newly discovered hyper-dense, but ultra light weight metal known as Quantimantium, a quantum-density alloy created in artifical "black holes". Additional onboard systems include built in night/low-light visual enhancement, radiation absorbing surface, internal inertial dampeners for kinetic/shock/concusive reduction, dual redundant power systems, and enhanced artifical musculature for large weight loads of up to 200kg weight. This advanced battlesuit is the epitomy of military defence hardware and should be undamageable by anything short of a direct hit by a 1 kiloton tactical nuclear warhead and could possibly even keep the wearer alive through that (though the suits functionality after such an event is not garunteed).

G41 AARS (Advanced Assault Rifle System):
Using the standard G36 Assault Rifle as a base, Rexler Industries built this rifle as the perfect compliment to the X-46 Advanced Battlearmor Suit. By utilizing the same quantimantium that's used in the armor on the rifle also, additional features like expanded magazine, better optics, longer range, enhanced durability, and nearly unfailing accuracy, the G41 is in all respects the proper replacement for the now aging G36/G37 line.

Real Description:
I used the excellent tutorial by Niphty on the filefront forums to make this suit and wasn't going to post it until I realized that alot of people were having such difficulty with Stalker even on easy mode that maybe this could help out in reducing frustration with the game, it certainly has made me enjoy the game a bit more. I've included some new screenshots to show the armor holding different weapons. For those who have been asking, this is the same model as the existing Exoskeleton suit, just spec modified to be more functional. This does not replace that suit but instead coexists with both the normal and unique exoskeleton suits in the game and both will still be available and unaffected by this mod.

Addionally, a new rifle, basicly a spec upgraded G36, has also been added. This rifle can only be purchased at the Freedom Trader known as Skinflint. He sells the rifle for a fair price, tho not nearly as cheaply as the armor itself.
