Okay, so I've tried to install it a few times with Wine, but every time installation gets stuck roughly 2/3 in. The window in the screenie appears and none of the options work. I'm on Archlinux64 with Wine, Winetricks, Wine-Mono and Wine-Gecko installed. The last line in the setup log contains an access violation message: 'Access violation at address 00457190 in module 'setup_stalker_shoc_2.0.0.5.tmp'. Write of address 0000024C.'

You could try extracting the installer with innoextract. This works for all GOG installers.

Note that the folder in userdocs needs to go to whatever Wine is using for My Documents. The game will make its own file if it can't find this one but the one it makes is different. This applies to all three S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.

Hi...Please help me

i have a same problem about COP exactly the same as you gone through..
Damn thing pops up while installing

and i tried to solve this problem after i read reply for your asking.

But i can't follow that direction.

Do you play COP now?

Try running the installer with the /nogui option

sorry what is nogui option? i have tried crossover and wineskin winery to install stalker..
but installation doesn't finish like same problem above;;;;
please help me (((

The installer needs to be run with the /nogui command line option, so the command is:

"setup_stalker_cop_2.0.0.12.exe /nogui"

To elaborate you'll want to run the command wine "/home/user/Downloads/setup_stalker_cop_2.0.0.12.exe /nogui" from the terminal. The path won't be exactly the same as what I wrote. You'll need to make sure it points to the correct location of the exe.

thanks guys. i will try tonight again. so that means i have to type the path...
but via crossover ? (cause i have crossover and wineskin)
anyway thanks guys thanks love you

I don't know for certain. If Crossover has a way of doing that without having to deal with the terminal, certainly try that first. If not, you might just have to do it with the terminal. I'm not familiar with Crossover like I am with WINE.

In CrossOver you can either go through "Manage Bottles" - select the bottle you want to install into, click "Run Command..." and then either click "Browse" to select the installer or enter its path manually - or you can right-click on the installer in the file manager, select "Open With --> CrossOver (Run)" (might differ slightly if you're not using KDE) and then select the bottle you want to install into. Then just add the /nogui option before clicking "Run".

Jesus! I've finished install by using crossover !(~nogui") like exactly you said!
and then i run the stalker , xray engine pops up which says,

A crash has been detected by bugtrap
this is x-ray engine v1.6 crash reporting client..~~~~~blahblah

i attached photo !

please see my attached picture and give me advice! T_T

Here's the additional pictures..i think these are the logs;;



And here....

See this thread: http://www.gog.com/forum/stalker_series/running_stalker_cop_in_linux_under_wine

Ok, i gave up;;;T_T

I used wine-configuration, and disabled d3dx11_42 and launch the stalker it has a same problem...

So i uninstall stalker (installed via crossover)

and launch the stalker installer via wine, i do not know how to launch the installer + /nogui ;;;

i tried to launch the terminal and typed /home/user/Downloads/setup_stalker_cop_2.0.0.12.exe /nogui

it didn't work;; installer cannot be launched;;

Call of Pripyat works fine for me in CrossOver... did you try installing DirectX? Try creating a fresh bottle, installing "DirectX Runtime - Modern", disabling d3dx11_42 then installing CoP.
