Releases and Patches

This a list of Releases and Patches for the Lost Alpha.

History
The development of the Lost Alpha started in the summer of 2008. The project first started out as a modification to add back the cut levels which all Stalker fans knew of. After a while, it became more than just a modification, it became a new standalone game. In 2014 it was planned to release the Lost Alpha as an official add on for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. In March and April 2014 it was reported that the game was leaked on some file-sharing websites and that it got already downloaded. The plan with the add on failed.

Release
On the 26th April 2014 the game was released titled as being "early access" and that it needs still some tuning.

Version Overview
The first version of the game was the v1.3000 which marked the start of Lost Alpha being available for everybody. For this version three patches were released, v1.30013 (also referred to as v1.3001), v1.3002 and v1.3003.

The developers decided not to release a patch v1.3004 because "it became more and more clear we need to release the developers cut, because the content we were planning was simply bigger than a patch".

On 26th April 2017 the Lost Alpha Developer's Cut was released with version v1.4000. The patch v1.4001 released shortly after was withdrawn due to errors in the packaging process and replaced by patch v1.4002. The following patches v1.4003 and v1.4004 were released for internal testing only and should be considered inoffical. Later available patch is v1.4005, released on 25th December 2017. There is another v1.4006 patch. The latest update is v1.4007, released on 8th December 2018.
