[little dawn]

just saw some buzzwords and their zoomie brains just got locked in it

[jagged lion]

when the hell did arrival have an option for a "vagina malfunction"

[elfin pine]

alife has nothing to do with your active, online range to npcs

if S2 spawns stuff near you then that's just the ai system

trilogy suffered from the same issues

[drowsy knot]

Theres a caramelldansen anomaly?

[elfin pine]

so does anomaly, gamma, efp etc etc

[jagged lion]

did arrival get an update? I've never seen that in the fomod

[cunning needle]

I have no idea, but it's funny

[eager acorn]

also hi oflin

[jagged lion]

helloflin

[elfin pine]

hey hey

[cunning needle]

No, it's an option for campfires, but I didn't read it and activated it.

[jagged lion]

"vagina malfunction? sounds immersive to me! "

[cunning needle]

[eager acorn]

honestly if you want so called "a life" i think #1481332358832455731 might scratch your itch more

[jagged lion]

🐝 🐝 🐝

bzzzzzz

[elfin pine]

won't solve core spawn mechanics

[magic blaze]

where the fuck is this thing? the house has no entry and its not on the roof. theres no basement either

[elfin pine]

go to a smart terrain, hit a respawn hour, boom npc spawns infront of you

[sonic kelp]

check the window

[eager acorn]

well at least it scratches the "a life simulation" part that people call or whatever

[jagged lion]

jump in thru the open window

[elfin pine]

you can get in through the window

or the roof if you don't fall into the hole

[elfin pine]

it does.....

i do enjoy it actually

[eager acorn]

idek what a life means anymore

[jagged lion]

I was about to say, also, the fat huge hole in the roof?

[dreamy copper]

can also just shift + f on a crate by the train platform and get in that window also

[cunning needle]

Go to a window, crouch down and jump to trigger the climbing animation. From there, you just need to navigate the house to the stash.

[jagged lion]

that's literally included in the map ui

[eager acorn]

ye im saving to use it for next update tbh

[elfin pine]

people move and settle in spots that are usually empty

they move to and from bases

[dreamy copper]

AW actually having constant skirmishes

[elfin pine]

expands upon the bounty stuff, with bugs obviously.......

[jagged lion]

!hasalife

[hearty saffron]

⠀

[eager acorn]

i love bugs

[elfin pine]

bugs are primarily the fact that me (merc) has bandits sprinting towards me and just hanging around

one bandit that i seen in AW i think decided to go to Jupiter and enter Yanov Station just to stand next to me and get domed by Garry

[jagged lion]

oghhhh I hate that bug where NPCs just randomly route to your location

[elfin pine]

yeh those will still occur

[eager acorn]

has like old npcs rank up? i think thats also a system with AP where they rank up and change gears etc

[elfin pine]

i seen it happen when military tried to rush the freedom base too

like obvious pathfinding along the wall just to get to the entranc

[eager acorn]

damn

[magic blaze]

it wont trigger is there anything specific you need to do to crouch-climb

[elfin pine]

i don't look at ranks so i can't tell, but that system was and still is in place

so they probably do rank up and all

[uncut hull]

Btw how the hell they messed up with the new X-18 that not only you get killed during Emission even tho you're flippin underground but there are several invisible electras like man

[elfin pine]

depends on the map and events tbh

northern maps are super common for this scripted pathfinding type look from npcs

[eager acorn]

thatd be really cool
just finding familiar names on the top of leaderboard suddenly

[elfin pine]

while southern ones often give them more natural movement patterns

even if they have a set destination

[jagged lion]

no just spam spacebar to try and climb

[elfin pine]

they react to stuff

[jagged lion]

it's double tap by default

[eager acorn]

will never happen

[jagged lion]

possible? yes
plausible? no

[empty iris]

Is there a way to turn off companion collision, because the fucking CNPP raid has killed me multiple times, all because fucking ROGUE KEEPS SHOVING ME OUT INTO MONOLITH FIRE

[eager acorn]

lovely

[jagged lion]

get out of my way you stupid npc

already should be included in gamma

[eager acorn]

just command them "stay far" and "covered position"

[jagged lion]

increases player weight and push value

[cunning needle]

You have to spam it until you get it

[jagged lion]

alternatively, just make your NPCs wait like dogs while you do all the dirty work

[magic blaze]

i got it thrice now and just got pushed off after

[cunning needle]

Try another window or climb onto the roof

[frail vine]

[royal girder]

Damn pseudogiants only take 6 shots of 23 shrapnel.

[jagged lion]

happens when you have the right gun for the job

there is no difficult task only bad tools

[meager peak]

At times 4 seems enough as well

[frail vine]

Only 4 shots of u use the buckshot+ from arti grok
And 1 shot for eco cartridge

[pliant wadi]

Sorry y'all 😅 Was searching (and obviously found the answer). Didn't mean to just walk in and type "coop" to everyone lol

[next coral]

man i feel like im constantly repairing the hybrid armored suit, does it normally get shredded 😭

[jagged lion]

Oh yeah I do that sometimes with the search bar

[frail vine]

U can play xrmpe
Cop coop

[empty iris]

it is but it's in the do not activate section and i can read well enough to understand that

[royal girder]

Idk mine took 6 probably didn't land everything in the head.
Bro ambushed me on the bottom transition from garbage -> dark valley.

[eager acorn]

"artigrok" ok you lost me

[jagged lion]

use the search bar at the bottom of the activated mods list and type "stupid" (keyword for the mod) and see if there's a different version of the same mod that's NOT in the "Don't activate" area

[frail vine]

Weak
Just download it

[empty iris]

nope

[jagged lion]

there are some mods that are bugged versions specifically put in "do not activate" (old versions of sss)

[eager acorn]

yeah there XRMpe which is for og stalker CoP

[runic flower]

Is this what the gauss rifle is supposed to look like?

[jagged lion]

huh. lame
just download the newest one from moddb and enable it
if it crashes just remove

[fierce fable]

Yes

[jagged lion]

I've been using it for forever with a custom modlist. It works and I have no crashes

[jagged lion]

yes, athi did a delectable job with the gauss rifle

[uncut hull]

I never got that far into GAMMA, looks kinda like middle ground between Stalker and Metro ngl

[runic flower]

I thought it was meant to have a screen?

[jagged lion]

no

not anymore no

It used to have sort of COD heart monitor like the ACR

[runic flower]

Oh ok

[jagged lion]

but it was boring and just a png on the model

and the gun was also bugged and locked you into ads

[fierce fable]

Gauss rifle has existed all the way since SoC
Easiest way to get it in gamma is from the lab in zaton

[runic flower]

Thanks for the info

[jagged lion]

now it's fixed
and cooler
a lot cooler
the gauge will not refill if you're empty

[sonic kelp]

fell for the gorilla glue on the eyecup prank

[jagged lion]

reminds me of the gorilla glue hairspray girl

[uncut hull]

I mean yea i know that i've played SoC i just meant i never got it in gamma

[runic flower]

Yeah i can tell. But the gauge seems to blur out quite a lot as soon as you start moving. Is that because of TAA motion blur?

[jagged lion]

yes. turn off TAA and all post processing effects. They're ugly and just take your FPS in my opinion

[runic flower]

Ok ill try

[jagged lion]

bloom makes things blurry. motion blur makes things blurry. TAA makes things extremely blurry.

[fierce fable]

Finish brain scorcher and rush to get it fr

[jagged lion]

it's a form of enshittification in my opinion

[runic flower]

Do you mean like, turn of all the Post process in SSS settings?

[jagged lion]

sure obscurity leaves a more vague image (that the brain finds appealing by filling gaps) and smooths mistakes but at some point it just looks like slop

[empty iris]

FUCK I TOOK AN ANABIOTIC BY ACCIDENT

[jagged lion]

yes. even better just reinstall SSS without post process modules

[fierce fable]

I think there's a motion blur setting in the visual settings not only in mcm iirc
Double check and make sure

[fossil stream]

can someone explain what triggers defend barrier mission? i had it even before turning off miracle machine

and sometimes i dont see that mission at all even late game

[jagged lion]

yes there is base motion blur as well, turn that off

also turn off head bobbing

[jagged lion]

what faction

[fossil stream]

loner

[cunning needle]

@magic blaze Did you manage to reach the Stash?

[fossil stream]

do you need like at least 500 rep with freedom? or is it completely random

[jagged lion]

you'd have to have talked to lukash at freedom base and offered to defend the barrier

or you talked to gatekeeper and started the living legend breakthrough thing

or perhaps it's just forced on you when a raid on the barrier happens and ur there

[magic blaze]

no.

[wide cliff]

@drowsy knot you still haven't found the secret?

[runic flower]

I dont know, I just tried it. Its definetly noticably less blurry but at the same time there appears a lot of aliasing everywhere that is distracting

[magic blaze]

i figured it cant be that great and getting there is annoying af

[runic flower]

I think ill leave it as is for now

[fossil stream]

im talking about lukash defend barrier mission with 40 monolith, what is the condition in which he offers ou this mission

[prime stone]

Hi folks, got a question, I'm a horrible gun fiend, would love some mods for extra guns and or more attachments, anyone know anything that works nice with GAMMA?

[fossil stream]

in some playthrus i dont see that mission from him ever

[jagged lion]

sometimes you see a message on your pda where he says that there will be an attack from Monolith at the barrier followed by stalker banter

[runic flower]

Do you play with TAA off and just rawdog the aliasing, or do you deal with it with some other way?

[jagged lion]

and you go offer help before the "thanks for all the help at the barrier" message that comes a day later

[uncut hull]

Frosty weapon pack

[frail vine]

Guys am i ready for Brain scorcher Agroprom underground

[uncut hull]

Bro

[jagged lion]

I rawdog the aliasing. I get more frames and my picture is far sharper and less confusing. My brain has learned to filter it out naturally

[runic flower]

Valid

[jagged lion]

how did you even get past cordon bridge dude

[frail vine]

Sneak 100

[jagged lion]

dude those boars in training day will mess you up you need a gauss rifle

[frail vine]

i brought my grandpa gauss rifle to the zone

[jagged lion]

how are you alive sonion

[uncut hull]

And 5 military helicopters just to stand a chance

[undone stone]

може хтось помогти, код від дверей в лабораторії х 18 , від першої 1243 , а від другої який ?

[drowsy ridge]

bro I cant reload any weapons because every time i try to it makes an unjam animation, im using mags

[elfin pine]

!how2reload

[hearty saffron]

@drowsy ridge How to reload your gun:
If you are playing vanilla GAMMA: your unjam key = your reload key.
If you are playing with MAGAZINE MODS:

1. Make sure you disabled the "GAMMA Unjam reload on the same key" mod
2. Make sure you separately rebind the Reload command ("Reload Weapon & Put PDA Away") and the Unjam command ("Reload weapon/Unjam Weapon/PDA away")
3. Make sure you added magazines to your loadout (alt-click or right click -> "add to loadout")

• Make sure your outfit actually has a slot that fits the mag (hint: PPSh drum mag is Large, the starting Sunrise suit has no Large mag slots)

[drowsy knot]

Nope, busy doing a PDA related quest rn

[prime stone]

The EFT ports? I kinda wanted something to get a little more freedom with scopes and supressors and attachments in general, hell, maybe even some animation eye candy.

[drowsy knot]

I guess if you want me to find it you gotta give me a hint lol

[jagged lion]

guys what is the pripyat outskirts "teleporter" or "time machine" easter egg? heard about it here a long time ago and googled it too but never found out what it was

[elfin pine]

save game, reload save and then type 9524 (door is bugged)

#☢чат-сталкеров-ru-ua for anything else

[green grail]

what version is gamma currently

[elfin pine]

0.9.4

[green grail]

no way my roles are reset too im gonna cry

[cunning needle]

Спробуйте один із цих: 1243 та 9524

[elfin pine]

they don't

[green grail]

i aint no damn newcomer i AM RETURNING

[uncut hull]

I dont actually know that much mods so i suggested first thing that came to mind lmao

[prime stone]

oh lmao

[drowsy ridge]

nothing works

[sonic kelp]

5.45 is not nearly enough for agroprom

[green grail]

oh now its fixed nice

[prime stone]

thanks either way tho lol

[runic flower]

I heard there are some teleport points ontop of a buildings roof at yanov station but Im not sure

[green grail]

lmfao

[elfin pine]

if you use mags the reload key is set to F10 and unjam key to R

track down the binds, rebind them accordingly and then it should work

[frail vine]

i have 6 7 barrikadas

[jagged lion]

[frail elm]

Is the underbarrel grenade launcher on the M4A1 bugged by any chance guys? tried to rebind it on the settings but can't get it to work with any key. Also I deleted conflicts in MCM to be sure, still the same. Any idea?

[green grail]

you couldve picked any of the words in the oxford english dictionary, and you still managed to combine those 3 words together

[safe forge]

Try picking a different key, some just don’t work

[frail vine]

do u have the correct ammo for it
it uses m2 ammo not vog

[kind pawn]

How many bullets of 9x18 FMJ fired from an SMG would it generally take to kill a bandit?

Trying to figure out if me getting wasted was purely out of skill issue or inpart due to bulletspongyness

[cunning needle]

Привіт, я бачив, що ти питав про коди X18, спробуй один із цих: 1243 та 9524

M203 right?

[safe forge]

Yes

[wide cliff]

Hint, make a wish.

[elfin pine]

what are they wearing?

[frail elm]

Yup I got that. But will try a bunch of different keys to see if I can get it to work

[green grail]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-rainbow-imagination-box-gif-12387358019437193946

With fmj? Anything from 5 to 40

[kind pawn]

I don't know man, I got swamped by like 10 guys streaming out of the vehicle garage in cordon like some clown car, it was so chaotic I didn't really get a chance to see if I actually downed anyone, but it felt as though my bullets did jackshit

[frail vine]

i personally bind mine to b
as lowering weapon is useless

[kind pawn]

40?!

[elfin pine]

medium armor with helmet - 6 headshots, 7 torso hits with FMJ

[drowsy knot]

Oh boy. Im a looong way off.

[royal girder]

Depends on their armor OFC usually the higher the rank the higher the armor value. Bandits usually have shit head armor though so try shooting the head.

[cunning needle]

https://youtu.be/8wzPwnJmCxI
@magic blaze I made a video to help you get to the stash; I hope it helps. Good luck!

[frail vine]

a bandit will die if u hit him with a brick

[frail elm]

So far I've tried B, P and ALT still not working but will keep trying to see if I find the one

[uncut storm]

Does this mod not work anymore ? I installed it but the companions are still able to die ? is there another way to make them go down temporarily instead of dying ?

[elfin pine]

if they don't wear any helmets then its two shots on head

[drowsy knot]

Literally 99% of bandits when you hit them with .357 HP

[wide cliff]

But it gives me an idea of how the game is going.

[wide cliff]

No one plays anywhere close to the north.

[frail vine]

should work its not a keybind thing?
are u applying after binding right?

[drowsy knot]

I mean - i have to go there some day, i have a mod that turns me into a monolithian at the end

[wide cliff]

The north is so boring that no one has found my secret yet.

[drowsy knot]

I honestly just haven't been there yet in my 450+ hour playthrough

I have a bunch of quests that send me there though, so i'll get there eventually.

[kind pawn]

Huh, I guess it was mostly due to poor aim then... Blasted 120 rounds into that group, felt as though no one went down

[frail vine]

https://klipy.com/gifs/futurama-shocked-1

[kind pawn]

Do they always tend to swarm you like they did? Or is there some sort of randomization to that?

[cunning needle]

@magic blaze Let me know if you still can't reach the stash

[frail elm]

Yup, also thought I was missing the apply part but nah. Thank you anyway for the help 👍

[somber coral]

so outside of FWP, what are some good mods for adding new guns or attachments into GAMMA?

[frail vine]

u got the right attachment right?
thats the only thing left that could be a prob

[undone stone]

Thank you! This is exactly the method that helped me, very grateful)

[uncut storm]

can anybody help ?

[cunning needle]

You're welcome, it's a pleasure to help a fellow stalker

[jagged lion]

try modular attachment system for gamma
basically if it has a picatinny you can put ANY picatinny on it.
same with dovetails

[green grail]

well if nobody here uses the mod how would we know if it works or not :3

[jagged lion]

it doesn't add anything new it just allows more guns to hold more attachments

[sonic kelp]

i do! i do!
literally just based in jupiter and refreshing outskirts spawns to farm isg
that technically counts right

[jagged lion]

there also #1392269443438084227

for your .22 lr needs (very weak of course but cheap)

[frail elm]

Yup, it's the M203 grenade launcher for the M4A1. I've used it before with a different gun and it was also a different launcher that's why I was wondering if it was the gun

[pearl forum]

Chat, where tf is these stashes? I have to wipe out the entire military just to give me some breathing room to look for it.

[green grail]

.22lr vs pseudogiant ??

[somber coral]

i'll definitely check that out, thank you

[frail vine]

its the one from details section of the gun right?

[uncut storm]

maybe somebody did im a newbie when it comes to mods 😛
thanks though

[elfin pine]

!treestash

[hearty saffron]

@pearl forum Stash in Agroprom that seems unreachable:
<#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message>

||Also skill issue ||

[royal girder]

Turn off the Area thing on your PDA. Then hover over the stash and right click to make a waypoint on it then right click your waypoint and enable "show on HUD"

[jagged lion]

that's not the tree stash oflin

oh it is

[frail elm]

Exactly the same, I have the game opened so I'm checking everything. Maybe later I'll start a new save with debug and try it with different guns to see if it works

[pearl forum]

omfg

[elfin pine]

pfff imagine doubting my knowledge

[jagged lion]

I thought he was talking about the military base one, the purple one

[frail vine]

guess zone cursed you

[jagged lion]

yeah... yeah... couldn't be me...

breath holding mechanic...

[cunning needle]

I don't think anyone can help you with that mod, try... #🔨modded-gamma-support

[pearl forum]

All of a sudden I'm being forced to be Vietnamese

[meager peak]

Surely with Ledge grabbing that one is really easy?

[green grail]

hot

[pearl forum]

that too actually I couldn't find all the stashes shown

[vestal venture]

4 Controllers in zaton were really unpleasant suprise...

[elfin pine]

purple one is probably the ground floor radio

[pearl forum]

sweet thanks

[frail vine]

isnt that stash from vanilla soc

[elfin pine]

green inside base is probably just the box against the wall

[pearl forum]

I almost thought they're undergrtound

[pearl forum]

I only played cop so idk

[frail elm]

I was about the cheese the sh out of the pseudogiangts for the Big game quest in yanov and the launcher said NOPE 😔

[pearl forum]

there goes 250 of my 5.45

[jagged lion]

Ever get ambushed by 9 verystrong-tier controllers in pripyat before? With drunk's horrific controllers mod, no less? I did! :D

[pearl forum]

it's dark as shit how tf they expect me to find it lmfaooo

[meager peak]

Yeah, still kinda annoying to get from what I remember but it has been a while I needed to go there in Anomaly

[frail vine]

what mod for thsoe icons

[magic blaze]

imma try again after doing irl shit

[jagged lion]

Especially because an EMISSION happened right when they came in and they just gherked my psi health even though I had 87 res

[runic flower]

Does jam chance on guns or broken / missing parts affect companions holding them?

[pearl forum]

magazine mod. there rest is vanilla Anomaly

[frail vine]

no

[elfin pine]

no, they have their own jam/reload chances separate from the part condition and attachments

[frail vine]

i meant the overload one
oh anomaly

[jagged lion]

no
but last loaded ammo type will be adopted by the NPC
also give your NPC a shotgun they don't follow ballistic rules and just shred

[runic flower]

Oh ok

[pearl forum]

Yeah it's anomaly

[jagged lion]

give them a buckshot loaded shotgun trust me

[runic flower]

Yeah i know vanilla anomaly buckshot is op

[jagged lion]

yea. and you can have an army of NPCs doing exactly that.

[runic flower]

I dont want to cheese like that i could give them an rpg at that point

[jagged lion]

you can do that too! they can only harm the enemy

[frail vine]

which is bs why did gork added that mod

[jagged lion]

they won't explode you or themselves or your companions

and they have infinite ammo.

just be mindful of possibly killing random npcs if said friendly npc is in cqc with an enemy

[frail vine]

and its enabled by default

[green grail]

they should add snus to gamma

[pearl forum]

Kay, new problem, either ledge grabbing is mod only or I fuck it up somehow

[runic flower]

Yeah i know it just makes the game too easy its like legal cheat

[green grail]

they must

[jagged lion]

sus to gamma
(your companions backstabbing you)

[pearl forum]

I thought ledge grabbing is in vanilla

[jagged lion]

it's modded
in vanilla gamma tho

[pearl forum]

average merc gameplay

[green grail]

i merely demand. Like a chihuaha, i bark but never bite.

[pearl forum]

Yeah I was so confused because there's ledge grabbing in vanilla anomaly, just not come with the animation

[jagged lion]

gamma is unfair to you. be unfair to gamma

[wild current]

So uhh, hey, I'm new to the game, I have like 15-20 hours so far.
Is it normal for a Controller to face tank an M203 grenade and then spin like it's dance dance revolution while it makes me shoot myself with my M4?

[jagged lion]

there is no ledge grabbing in vanilla anomaly...

[safe forge]

Some of them have exos

[jagged lion]

yes! shoot him with another

[pearl forum]

there is actually, I triggered it when looking for Dushman's stash

[wide cliff]

@drowsy knot One second thought, maybe not.
Since the AI is having issue, there is no point to go there.

[wild current]

It's uhh, it's my only one, I'm stuck in the undergrounds

[frail vine]

my logic still apply

[keen sedge]

You were way to close to him

[woeful spoke]

Hey does anyone play with the mod "Fatal Error" ?

[jagged lion]

no grenades? no ammo? no nothing?

[wild current]

I'm in agroprom undergrounds, past the fire anomaly, I can't be any further sadly

[meager peak]

In theory it should die in one hit by a nade like that, but the aftermath is funny

[jagged lion]

no it's just unnecessary in my opinion :[ just s gimmick

[wild current]

Well, yes to ammo, but I usually don't have the time to kill it with what I have haha

[royal girder]

You can. Just go back to the fire anomly

[green grail]

why is gamma so much better than stakler 2 tho

[woeful spoke]

I play it and I can't open the PDA on certain maps because of Monolith jammer i guess

[frail vine]

u can debate on whether u have ledge grabbing or not
ledge grabbing wont work it your arms are fucked

[keen sedge]

Ah, well you need 2 shots but I think gls will be buffed next patch

[leaden stone]

how to disable sin spawns?

[woeful spoke]

does anyone know how to bypass the jammer ?

[pearl forum]

tru tru

[keen sedge]

Could be thinking of a different game tho lol

[wild current]

Well, I certainly feel like I'm between a rock and a hard place.
I either DO kill it somehow, or back track so much

[jagged lion]

remove the mod..?

[royal girder]

What jammer? You mean the Brain Scorcher?

[woeful spoke]

No

[safe forge]

Which jammer?

[jagged lion]

fatal error mod

[woeful spoke]

It literally says on my PDA : Fatal Error a Monolith Alpha Squad blablabla and it goes with a white blurry screen

[royal girder]

Well then kill the monolith squad.

[woeful spoke]

Let me send you a screenshot hold on

[jagged lion]

you must. you must kill it.
oh wait the pseudogiant in the tunnel might be hard on you

[royal girder]

Idk what to tell you bro.

[woeful spoke]

Well it's not happening it looks like a virus on my PDA lmfao

[royal girder]

Is it on the taskboard?

[woeful spoke]

Main menu

the main screen

[wild current]

The WHAT

[safe forge]

You don’t have to kill that. Can tp out or run past

[royal girder]

Yeah.

[wild current]

No way such an early game mission has a pseudogiant, right

[safe forge]

Why you would do that is beyond me but it’s possible

[jagged lion]

hehe... somebody didn't play shadow of chernobyl

[dreamy copper]

there is so damn many of them with alife plus

[royal girder]

Yeah about that...

[wild current]

Nooo way

[safe forge]

Mm is not an early game mission, it is the first of the two step gate to unlock endgame content

[wild current]

Yk what, fck it, I'm less scared of that than this controller

[wild current]

Oh, good to know!

[royal girder]

You can run around and there are explosive barrels to help you take him out.

[safe forge]

Just mag dump the fuck out of it. Alternatively draw your knife and bhop till it dies

[wild current]

Maybe, I don't try all of that with an M4, broken armor and an Mp-155 with buckshot.

[royal girder]

But overall i hope you brought enough bullets.

[safe forge]

Yeah no, broken armour is not the play

[wild current]

Most definitely not lol
I expected rats, snorks, etc.

[royal girder]

Yeah there's some more in there.

[keen sedge]

155 should work wonders

[wild current]

Already had trouble with the 3 blood suckers

[safe forge]

Your weapons are fine tho

[royal girder]

The MP with buckshot can maybe take him out in like 8 shots?

[wild current]

Maybe my weapons are alright, but my armor is.. shredded.
And I can't even repair them yet

[drowsy knot]

For now, still need to finish checking which mod is causing the issues

But what i forgot to tell you is that im also using a slightly older version of your emplacement mod, the one that still needed the ! and @ [exclusive] swap fix

[safe forge]

For blood suckers, even though they’re mutants, use your M4. Even if you don’t have hp ammo, blasting in a cone to reveal them as they run around will make it so much easier if you can’t manage to figure how to pin point where they are on their approach

[wild current]

I actually used my grenade launcher which was fairly effective.
But I just realized I have like 10 M4 shots left and 28 buckshots for the 155.
I'm turning back

[safe forge]

That works but is very expensive

[safe forge]

That’s enough but it’s up to you

[wild current]

I mean, there's still a controller and a psuedogiant at least, so yeah, I'm not confident

And I'm down to 4% psychic resistance

[empty iris]

if yall could have one artifact irl what would it be

[safe forge]

Volat emerald

[frail vine]

with alife plus the loners will try yo raid the mil compound
i help my fellow stalkers

[woeful spoke]

it's this shit basically

[safe forge]

I’m already very much not resistant to bullets and everything else is an upside

[wide cliff]

What is the version number?

[woeful spoke]

what the fuck is Monolith tracking script lmfao

[safe forge]

Kill the squad

[frail vine]

full empty cause it looks like balls

[wild current]

Well, my helmet is at 22% and my armor at 11%, so I think I'm cooked if I don't turn back

[steel kraken]

Surprisingly when I installed this mod the Merc sniper nest in wild territory is always occupied by loners or duty

[safe forge]

It’s a virus that got uploaded to your pda

[empty iris]

I did BS with a 0% heavy armor youll be fine

[frail vine]

cause they kill them

[dreamy copper]

thats normal tbh.

[wild current]

Okay, but I'm not an absolute chad like you, I came from Stalker 2, this is a LOT harder haha

[dreamy copper]

rarely do you see mercs occupying it

[frail vine]

u can sometimes find their bodies and its free loot

[woeful spoke]

Oh crap where is the squad then I'm waiting with my mercs buddies come get me assholes

[safe forge]

Ew, S2 mention

[calm jackal]

Never pplayed S2

[safe forge]

Neither

[empty iris]

I'm not an absolute chat i didn't know how to feed artifacts to a melter before yesterday

[prisma sundial]

Does gamma have playable guitars?

[safe forge]

Just because you can’t read very well doesn’t mean you can’t shoot very well

[wild current]

Idek what that is, but it sounds interesting lol

[safe forge]

Yes

[frail vine]

u can play them but not manually

[empty iris]

you just described the entire US marine corps

[prisma sundial]

Still cool though, ty

[woeful spoke]

LMFAO

[steel kraken]

I'm not sure if it's because of the alifeplus mod I noticed how most of the duty in rostok would sit in a single corner of the entrance to wild territory

[safe forge]

Exactly

[calm jackal]

Does anyone have the problem where the game opens up off center? It's to the point where I cant even go into the menu and switch between fullscreen and borderless to fix it anymore

[drowsy knot]

1.1

[steel kraken]

Like 4 of them huddled in one corner next to each other

[amber spade]

It says 1.4 there mate

[frail vine]

u can play the harmonica too

[steel kraken]

Speaking of harmonica how do I cancel it

[empty iris]

BAD BAD BAD DO NOT PLAY HARMONICA

[empty iris]

you cant lol its bugged

[steel kraken]

That's why

[frail vine]

thats the good part
u cant

[amber spade]

Oh? You got fatal error installed? Yeah, you are fucked. Good luck finding a transition without the PDA guiding you lmao

[wide cliff]

There were a bug that limit MG shooting range to 74 meters. Fixed in 1.4.

[plucky cairn]

how do i get to this stash in jupiter? feel like ive tried everything

[dusk chasm]

lets gooooooooooooo
my monitor issue is gone

[steel kraken]

I was in garbage running from a bunch of dogs and accidentally clicked the harmonica

[amber spade]

Me playing harmonica and the stalker pushes me out of cover: (it was an emission)

[dusk chasm]

go up

[frail vine]

!ms

[hearty saffron]

@plucky cairn
An ongoing bug causes some stashes to spawn on random objects, anomalies or NPC's, resulting in the loss of any items they might've held.

To identify if the stash is indeed bugged you can do this:

1. Disable Areas above the PDA Map to remove white circles around locations
2. Right Click the stash marker on your PDA Map
3. Select Set Waypoint
4. Right Click the waypoint you just added
5. Select Waypoint Settings
6. Enable Show waypoints marker on HUD
7. Press OK
8. The on-screen waypoint will point towards the stash

[woeful spoke]

Lmao I like when it gets harder 🤣 ( i'm not being dirty minded here)

[empty iris]

when does that happen?

[amber spade]

In buttocks pripyat?

[frail vine]

https://klipy.com/gifs/sml-mr-goodman-50

[drowsy knot]

Yea but mine dont even shoot at 10 meters 😄

[steel kraken]

Btw does anyone have a fix for my game crashing when I'm entering Rostok? Its like a weird 50/50 for me rn

[woeful spoke]

When near Monolith base or some shit

[safe forge]

In the launcher enable the reset the graphic settings option

[amber spade]

When you travel to the north, more specifically in pripyat outskirts or pripyat, since monolith had settled a jammer in those regions

[woeful spoke]

I'm trying to figure out how to remove the virus installed on my PDA lmao

[empty iris]

that hasnt happened to me, yet, and I went through CNPP

[amber spade]

Ain'T you a fellow to say it.

[woeful spoke]

Oh crap then I don't even know, you have Fatal Error Installed too ?

[dusk chasm]

[mossy yew]

reinstall windows os

[dusk chasm]

this is why i dont use mods that adds more tedium

[empty iris]

nope

[amber spade]

Have you tried rebooting the pdA? Ran an antivirus?

[safe forge]

Game crashes on loads are fairly common, an easy way is following #╰⚡fps-optimisation in an effort to help your game out

[woeful spoke]

Monolith OS *

[amber spade]

Only happens if you have fatal error installed, lmao

[woeful spoke]

Yeah it's called Fatal Error yeah the name might be a lil bit confusing when you don't know what we're talking about

[meager peak]

Why are Pins on my location instead of where I put them? It isn't making any sense

[safe forge]

DONT DO THAT ITS JUST ANOTHER VIRUS

[steel kraken]

I've already followed everything. ATP it's mostly on my end since i have a shitty RX 580

[empty iris]

I thought it was vanilla and the virus itself was called fatal error lol

[amber spade]

This is what you get, since you dowloaded those "Bloodsuckers In bikinis" gallery's

I know what type of men you are.

[woeful spoke]

Oh no no xD it comes from a mod

[safe forge]

Hey! My rig’s from the dame year. Only other thing i can recommend is turning your shader mods off. Know how to do that?

[empty iris]

[safe forge]

Noice noikfe

[steel kraken]

I don't regret killing a loner in front of everyone in rostok for a saiga 12

[amber spade]

It is cool, but painful at best.

Basically adds a lot of immersive things involving your PDA

[woeful spoke]

BONZI BUDDY

[frail vine]

can i remove it mid playthrough if u know?

[safe forge]

You can. Wether or not that’ll go well is a different question

[amber spade]

The problem is: your PDA will get damaged, by everything.

Whether it is bullets, Anomalies, psy emissions, emissions and like previously said, monolith has settled jammers on the northern region so... Good luck:

[frail vine]

[woeful spoke]

Yeah it's cool but really annoying when your PDA crashes it adds more difficulty and challenges you have to upgrade your PDA because it can fry or even gets broken, nonetheless you can repair it but it costs you an arm ( 10 000 rubles ) for the device repair kit

[amber spade]

I am pretty sure it adds new battery types for devices too.

[woeful spoke]

Yeah it does

[safe forge]

DAMNIT, I NEED THE TINY LITTLE WATCH BATTERIES AND I’VE ONLY GOT AA!

[woeful spoke]

it says in the mod description : Battery system:

1. Every Device now require it own battery type (AAA, AA, C, D or F) - see device description to find out.
2. Batteries can be charged\discharged by Universal Power Device (UPD) - simple drag battery or UPD on top of each other - you will quickly understand how to use it. Can be obtained by crafting or at 3 trade level.
3. Every battery type has a unique mAh value. For example, an F-type battery will last a very long time, but it costs a lot and is very hard to find.

[safe forge]

What do you mean there’s different types of watch battery

[frail vine]

i am installing it mid playthrough
what could go wrong

[amber spade]

Meaning that you gotta find C battery type for your shiny night vision.

Oh? You don't have it? Only 46 packs of d batteries? well...

FUCK YOU!

Monolith propaganda to lure stalkers into their traps

[safe forge]

[faint sapphire]

They should let you throw D batteries
They do damage

[amber spade]

I had 46 packs of batteries and I thought I was settled, the moment I booted my game afterwards, I was in shambles to discover that all of my batteries packs... We're for my ,Flashlight

[woeful spoke]

Australia Red Sky ( circa 2026 )

[frail vine]

just to be safe

[empty iris]

I need to find Stitch's hacking device but there's no marker for it and the quest marker just leads to an anomaly field

[amber spade]

I literally had to some crazy ass battery management, like it was some form of old ass amnesia game or something.

Lucky me, a few traders sold the said battery, at a low fair price of 6k a piece.

That is one way to put F.E.A.R onto people if I ever saw one.

[frail vine]

wtf i need the source

[amber spade]

Horror mod for stalker.

[paper arch]

source is some obscure youtube video

[woeful spoke]

• Added integration with PDA Hacking - if you play with PDA Hacking you can "hack" your PDA to get it out from BSOD state (Safe Mode Boot will not help), hack Monolith Jammers to be able to use your PDA on Monolith territory without an upgrade (perfect if you use GETAC PDA) - and many more small details.

Oh ! I found my way out !!! I'll hack my own PDA thanks ! xD

where you only need to disable miracle machine?

Literally narodnaya solyanka but smoked more meth and tried to make an actual story out of it.

You only need to disable the miracle machine to gain access to radar, and then you are able to go and shut it off.

There's a stash there? Hm that seems inconvenient

[meager peak]

I would say Truck Cemetery route less stalkers on the route

[dusk chasm]

monolith lootbox gave this

[languid goblet]

just got greeted by chimeras

feels like 90% of the time i play truck cemetary theres chimera spawned already

[meager peak]

You could try to pass through Yantar, not much else in choices to go

[cyan aspen]

Mine usually has lurkers and bugged quests but that's also cuz my save is like 3 years old

[languid goblet]

yantar one seems doable if thru agroprom because wild territory lvl transition seems to invoke firefights from ecologist bunkers

already used this route twice successfully in 2 runs but wonders if theres more to it

[dusk chasm]

what i took was this route

[safe forge]

I feel like mm is a whole lot less scary when all i have on my mind is “fucking phantom through the wall” and “yay more snork parts”

[languid goblet]

yea thats my first route i thought of but wonder if theres better one

[tiny stirrup]

#CLIPPED
#PACKWATCH

[meager peak]

Maybe through Agroprom, in the north then, Yantar seems safer overall, but prob more mutants

[empty iris]

mm is super chill when you realize there's no timer

[tiny stirrup]

longest and most brutal firefight ive been in yet.

[dusk chasm]

i tried the darkscape>dark valley>truck cemetery>army warehouse>dead city route
i died at dark valley coz a fcking controller spawned near the military base

so i took the easy route im familiar with

[languid goblet]

hugging west side to garbage just now - only few stalkers around - military on the east feels like death trap lol

[dusk chasm]

dark valley?

[safe forge]

I guess but i don’t think a timer would be that scary. It’s still just pp-2000 go brr and occasionally switching to my 3x scope lmg for zombies. Maybe it’s just the lvl2 nvg’s but eh

i didnt even know it was sultan i killed i was too busy freaking out 'cause i ran out of ammo and was using a pistol with HP 😭
Still cleaned up the Bandit Base in Dark Valley doe. Worth it? Hm... Only worthwhile stuff I got was a mercenary who tried to third party with a cool ass rifle
And, like, gun parts.

Please help me, where can I find a table where the chances of tools falling out at certain locations are written?

!tools

[hearty saffron]

@rotund oxide
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies). You get a 50% chance of receiving a yellow stash each time. This resets upon finding a yellow stash - then you need to do 7 more tasks, and look for more stash coordinates afterwards.

Thx man, that was bothering me x)

-takes a sip of my drink and opens backpack only to be shot eightteen times in the back by a bandit-

backpack anim can sometimes be the bane of me

it's mainly healing animations though i swear these guys have a sixth sense to let them know when im stuck in an animation

[nova folio]

they do

[safe forge]

I thought the controller would be harder than that for some reason. But took one ten round burst and fell over

[tiny stirrup]

Make sense. When I was raiding the bandit base I was wondering why everytime i applied bandages a guy would run into the room

Do NPCs have differing aim depending on what faction/rank they are as well?

[nova folio]

thats the reason
also yeah dont apply bandages mid fight

[safe forge]

It’s not my first one i just figured they would’ve given him mote health than that

[tiny stirrup]

Never used one I've just been mashing bandages like in the trilogy 🤣

Just had the most awkward encounted with a Sin dude. We both pushed towards each other, and our guns jammed at the same time, so we just sat there looking at each other as we unjammed our gun lol

bleeding heal is instant animation about the same
or blue medkit - health both bleed and does healing

[uncut hull]

aww dang it

That’s when you get the knife out and chef fam

there a reliable way to get blue medkits? Sido sells like. One every restock for both of my kidneys and my left lung.

[empty iris]

craft em mate

[safe forge]

Yeah they’re incredibly cheap to craft

[tiny stirrup]

Oh yeah I forget you can craft pretty much anything.

[nova folio]

blue medkit is extremely cheap recipe - Red Medkit + 2 Bandages

[tiny stirrup]

Red medkits my beloved

[safe forge]

I’d recommend simple stimpack over any of the medkits for in combat healing tho

man i've been playing so awfully. live and learn i s'pose. Took me forever to realize I could maintain the parts of my weapons.

if you think you've been playing horribly i lost like 15 different Ironman runs already if not more to the stupidest actions ever

[tiny stirrup]

hhh now i want to get back on but i have to go to bed so i can wake up for work

[safe forge]

With the amount of times i’ve been an inch away from death and popped one, knowing a bandage instead would’ve either not been fast enough or would’ve still let me die to bleed, is reason enough for me to always carry about 15 of them

[tiny stirrup]

I just don't play ironman

[rigid notch]

Yeah periods are dangerous

[tiny stirrup]

Aren't stimpacks super slow? Could've sworn the stimpack animation was the same as fent and other stuff

[safe forge]

No they’re almost instant. At least the improvised ones definitely are

[tiny stirrup]

Huh. Must've used a different one/a buff.

I do not like Sin at all they are obscenely tanky (70% damage reduction!!!!!????) and creepy

[safe forge]

Yeah but they have hardly any armour

[tiny stirrup]

At least they're about as well equipped as a zombie/bandit is yeah

[safe forge]

So you just end up treating them like mutants. Which they also happen to be friendly with

[tiny stirrup]

[nova folio]

Disguise?

[formal sierra]

well raiding larger faction bases is pretty hard, bring a fuckton of ammo and meds

or you could disguise

[cunning needle]

Or you could dress up as one of the Freedom guys.

[woeful pecan]

You could also get that one guy in the loner town to make you friendly with them for a limited time

Or is that just the military?

[formal sierra]

you'd need to repair a freedom outfit to actually good condition though, otherwise they'll see through it

[woeful pecan]

Lol

[nova folio]

wont work if you come close to them
