S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: LOST ALPHA Patch v1.30013 (2nd of May 2014.) changelog:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The patch is savegame compatible, so you do not have to start new game for this patch, but for maximum experience it's recommended.
• If you installed 3rd party / user-made fixes and mods for Lost Alpha, it's highly recommended to reinstall the game to have a clean install before you apply the official patch. This is required to avoid conflicts with the 3rd party content. We can not give support for such cases.
• If you experience flickering white stripes all over the level on r3 render, thats caused by selflight.s shader, we are constantly updating dx10 and 10.1 because its not finished yet. this glitch does not happen for everyone, because it's very much driver- and vga-related. Until we find the best solution you have two options:
1. Download the old selflight.s and put it into gamedata\shaders\r3 dir, overwriting the new one:

2. Switch to render r2, which uses dx9 with many dx10 features, so you get sunshafts and others, and no such glitches.
• If you are driving a car and arrive at a level changer, please get out of the car and check if you can enter the map or not on foot, because you will lose the car if there is a blocker, since blockers can only turn back the player, not the car. We will include a fix for this in the 2nd update soon; until then, please be cautious… especially in the beginning of the story, when many maps are inaccessible.
