Went with Autumn Aurora - thanks for the suggestions.

I've been feeling the itch to return to the Zone wanting a vanilla story but also an improved game experience: bugfixes, a little less wonkiness in the systems, better graphics and UI.
Autumn Aurora seemed like the best bet but I just can't get past how (

On the other hand there's Anomaly which, especially with GAMMA, looks great but is completely uninteresting to me since I want to play SoC and not a STALKER-based choose-your own adventure with crafting.
Does anyone know of a modern modpack for the first game tuned towards single player experience that doesn't also completely change the way the game plays?

Thanks, it looks exactly what I wanted! Pity I was too lazy to look into it a bit more earlier.
In the end I played throught the whole thing with AA2, I had a good time but I think will likely play ZRP-only for my next playthrough in a couple years.
I'm amazed at how well SoC holds up in terms of atmosphere, I really haven't seen anything like it since.

Came to this thread because I was in the mood for some Stalker after playing Chernobylite. It was ok- worth a playthrough, but only made me long for Stalker.
Ended up installing Anomaly and Gamma and am having a really good time. Thanks!
