If you have any other mods that use ObjPrototypes.cfg, you will need to merge the mods.
HIGHLY recommend using the merge tool here: https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/326?tab=posts Very easy to use and has never failed me.
IMPORTANT: "REDUCED DAMAGE" only for permitted vanilla falls. Vanilla lethal fall distance will still kill you.
"NO FALL DAMAGE" can jump from anything anywhere (avoid if you like immersion).
I have some critical info to share. To extend the lethal fall distance beyond vanilla, open Stalker2\Content\GameLite\GameData\ItemPrototypes\ArmorPrototypes.cfg and change the bold underlined sections:
Needs to be changed on ALL playable armors to be effective.
I've been playing around with it and this allows +/- 25m of fall, bringing me down to 15% health from 100%. It seems that so long as the fall protection from both ObjPrototypes and ArmorPrototypes totals less than 99% the damage is still applied, anything over 100% gets a little weird and regens health to 100% effectively nullifying fall damage. Will test further to confirm max lethal fall height using these two parameters.
Edit: I forgot to add that I'm using "75% fall damage reduction" as the base file.
I had to install this, as I was stuck on the top of one of the cooling towers and there was no way of going back down or through a portal. An oversight by gsc games.
There is VERY much a way down from the Cooling towers, you have to use the cloud/boost anomalies near the bottom of the tower. Landing in them/falling through them negates fall damage.
looks like this mod reduces the damage taken, based on the damage being done... from just playing the game, i figured (but havent really tested) that fall damage is height based.. so a little more height will have a big impact on damage being done... exponentially more.. meaning that there is a cap at what height will be lethal.. elden ring has a similar mechanic with fall damage, where it would deal up to 50% hp max, but a pixel above that would kill you... i still think that this mod is a hard MUST.. fall damage scaling is insane in this game
*EDIT*
to clarify, lethal falls in vanilla will still kill you, but non lethal falls will do less damage based on what variant of the mod you downloaded!!

Ledge Grabbing PLUS NO (or less) FALL DAMAGE merge
Enjoy!
