STALKER GAMMA on Linux with Steam - 2025

Mord3rca's neat gamma-launcher tool makes it possible to install STALKER GAMMA natively on Linux bypassing GAMMA's installer which needs Windows to run.

This doc is a short summary of 2 other documents but aimed at using Steam instead of Lutris to run the game.

1. gamma-launcher covers the installation of gamma-launcher. If you're on Arch or a variant of it, consider using yay -Sy gamma-launcher to let Arch manage the install and keep it updated for you.
2. A guide to getting S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - G.A.M.M.A. running on GNU/Linux by DravenusRex is a good guide to getting it running with Lutris. It was the basis for this document.

Read the above for reference if you need, but the below covers the entire process.

Morrowind with MGE XE, MWSE-Lua and Mod Organizer 2 on the Steam Deck, 2025

Summary of how to get Morrowind running on the Deck with MGE XE and MWSE-Lua. MO2 is used to manage mods. Includes a method for keeping a desktop (Linux or Windows) in sync with the Steam Deck - useful since you can more easily manage your mods on the desktop with MO2, mlox, TES3Merge, Wrye Mash and then sync all of it over to the Deck.

Setup Morrowind

In Steam's game mode

• Install Morrowind on your primary SSD (not your SD card)
  • Right click the game in the Library, Properties > Compatibility > tick Specific Proton Version and select 9.0 or Experimental (which is at least 10.0)
• Run the game once - this will create a "prefix", essentially a small Windows install that Morrowind will run in

Improved Weapon Pack for Call of Chernobyl with Call of the Zone

Overview

IWP + CotZ is a fine alternative to all of the Misery-based CoC variants based on CoM (Call of Misery) Like ANOMALY, Escape from Pripyat and GAMMA. It doesn't have all of the repair and artifact mechanics introduced by Misery and then taken much further by CoM/Anomaly/GAMMA, which can be a welcome change if you yearn for the original STALKER experience as in the original trilogy.

Old World Addon (OWA) is another fine alternative. It's a demake of Anomaly that removes all the many extra items introduced by Misery and severely simplifies the crafting and other systems to be closer to vanilla STALKER.

Call of the Zone is a superb mod for Call of Chernobyl, adding quests, better spawns and a host of other neat features all done very well. Unfortunately it needs base CoC which is quite out of date these days and is also more crash prone than the newer engines based on the CoP source code.
