Here’s a list of some of the best “S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly” add-ons for players to try out.

Boomsticks And Sharpsticks

This add-on is one of many weapon packs for “S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly,” and it’s perfect for players who find the base game’s guns to be a bit lacking in the sound and animation department. Boomsticks And Sharpsticks (or B.A.S. for short) is a collection of custom-made guns and melee weapons that are meant to give the game a more tactical feel.

B.A.S. reworks the animations of all weapons and gives players access to multiple mods like canted sights, multi-zoom optics and more.

Trader Overhaul

The Trader Overhaul add-on reworks the logic behind trader inventories. With this add-on installed, trader inventories will become significantly more unique depending on the trader themselves. For example, faction-specific traders will only sell gear commonly used by their factions.

This will also add more traders to the game as well as some extra features like trader tiers that determine the quality of their inventories.

Hollywood FX

The Hollywood FX add-on revamps the game’s impact effects, resulting in more blood, dust, debris or sparks whenever bullets hit specific materials. This is a small add-on when compared to the others on this list, but its effect is very noticeable, especially to those who feel like “S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly’s” combat looks a bit dull.

JSRS Sound Mod

This add-on overhauls the sounds of gunshots, giving weapons new firing sound and improving the overall atmosphere by adding new audio effects. Installing this add-on will make gunshots and impact sounds feel more realistic by adding new echo effects and distant gunshot sounds.

The JSRS Sound Mod adds new stereo first-person sounds and up to eight layers of audio per weapon, making this a must-have for players who love immersion.
