You need help with installation? Did you try just running it as vanilla first?

i did run it vanilla
did community update 3, zone next door mods work fine but as soon as i add cotz weapon pack it crashes
this one
im gonna smoke some nuclear green then try another gun mod i think
modding makes my head hurt but the satisfaction of it working will be worth

Feel free to send the bottom part of the crash log. Can easily troubleshoot it.
I don't personally use the CotZ WP as I prefer AO3. Even then, I dunno if Mazhra did anything with the CU3 to cause any incompatibilities.

question for call of the zone is there way to stop the memory leaks and crashes?
There's an website that apparently helps add memory, but I forgot what it is nor do I use it. You can reduce crashes and memory use by using hard saves instead of quick saving.

running the 74 rn
gentle salmon
If you're going unmodded, either or. If something like AO3, the heavy NATO rounds are much better. The ones the FN FAL uses.
blazing lichen
ill keep that in mind for next run when i use A03 ( using cotz weapon pack 1.5 rn )
gentle salmon
Yeah, saw that when I saw that shotgun.
Still, if anything, shotguns are also just good, too, since Warfighter Mod damage is unbalanced and shotguns do unrealistically high damage at high.

I wasn't that patient though. You would need a lot
I did scrape together enough to buy a SEVA before entering the factory at least
Have you ever played Autumn Aurora
It shakes up the aesthetics and gameplay but maintains the original story. Might be worth a try.
There's also OGSE/OGSR if you are looking for something that expands the original game but keeps the core story the same

One option yeah

I dont like it because instead of fixing any of Anomalys problems it just multiplies it
Only thing that isnt worse is progression because in gamma it actually exists but still
Its just different shade of bad rather than upgrade
sharp marten
Could you list some of the problems? I know one is how annoying the repair system is
upbeat coral
Item bloat, overly complicated and poorly implemented features, boring and empty maps, lackluster story, lack of proper quests, balancing of story fights (half of them are made for SoC and CS gun accuracies)
Generally solid 80% of my issues with Anomaly are present in Gamma
sharp marten
Ahh fair enough, I'm pretty much using it as empty brain filler until stalker 2 so I've not been too attentive to problems
upbeat coral
Empty brain filler describes its gameplay well
Also I hate what Anomaly and in extension Gamma did to Mercs
sharp marten
They just attack me on site. And speak English at me
upbeat coral
Yeah
Reduced from saboteurs and soldiers for hire into dumb goons from the west
But most other factions arent much better
Duty is absolutely incompetent, Freedom is bunch of drug addicts amd alcoholics, their truce is broken, Sakhrov didnt progress his research one bit, neither did Hermann. Everything is in dumb nonsensical status quo
Except for Yanov
Because..
Reasons I guess
CoC actually bothered explaining it but Anomaly for some reason removed the actually explanatory part of the story
patent apex
biggest issue is how stagnant the zone feels after a playthrough
upbeat coral
Yeah
upbeat coral
1 playthrough and theres nothing to see
idle matrix
I feel like it is too comfortable with the status quo and lacks imagination to change the zone with its own vision
upbeat coral
Yeah
patent apex
wasn't anomaly made to like have stuff added to it and then nobody did anything with it
idle matrix
That may not be a problem for everyone but after I played it for a while and then played some other mods it bothered me
upbeat coral
Their biggest vision was "feel of undisturbed zone" which they didnt even do

Welp, that was Dream Catcher.
I rate it, 7/10
The game was unstable in Limansk.
Because of Brave, the game gets -1
wintry forge
and how would you rate Anomaly?
8/10
wintry forge
<:hellonewstalker:959567602500378744>
Dream Catcher crashed when I was saving the game and I need to startover from the latest save.
Thats -1

Fortunately for me, I often save the game.
For some reason the game was unstable in Limansk, crashed several times while I was back track my progress to get all the stuffs.
upbeat coral
limansk was wild, but I didnt get crashes there so..

Anomaly is definitely NOT an 8/10

Oh and the economy overall is pretty bad.

there were too many mutants in Yantar tbh
early game economy is pretty bad considering Brave is an asshole
There are 2 things I learned from my this playthrough. Whatever you do, dont buy anything from Brave and dont sell the Psi-Helmet to the scientist.

I dont think single asshole trader makes the game bad tbh

Actually, make it 3. Dont buy exo skeleton cuz you'll get it for free from Nimble later on.

theres no fast travel option too so thats also a pain in the ass

what Im getting from the issues you listed
is that you didnt play many mods and it shows
wintry forge
I guess so.
I'm just a casual player after all.
Never really interested on stalker mods that aims for realism.

tbh if I were casual I would care more about quests and repetetiveness rather than few enemies and occasional avoidable crash

oh

also I said in faction bases, in no mod I played did Limansk have a faction base
wintry forge
yeah I'm in Limansk faction base right now
so theres no guides at all in Dream Catcher then

Lelyana is guide
she takes you from Yantar to Dead CIty
which is pretty much the only places you need to travel between more often
