[lavish zinc]

ay, i have a question, why does the monolith pray shaking their heads?

its hilarious

[vale star]

to imitate the dizzying effects of the brainfrier's influence before they were completely converted. like a baby being calmed by a clock because it sounds like a heart.

[lavish zinc]

ooooh

[cinder silo]

why should i not install the modlist?

[prisma pumice]

Neither the Kit nor the actual scope are there

[vale star]

lmfao that's just my headcanon, who knows? they're cultists

[lavish zinc]

it makes sense lol

[vale star]

ikr

[elfin pine]

there's a high likelihood that the launcher won't download and install stuff properly

[cinder silo]

can it be fixed

[lavish zinc]

they are batshit insane enougj

[elfin pine]

not by you or anyone else in chat

a proper launcher fix is being worked on

[cinder silo]

ok thanks

[dreamy plaza]

This one can be bought at scadovsk

Off a fucking bandit?

I've checked the mercs too and they don't have it either

this guy has been in my playtrough since day one and i'm rly considering taking him with me because he just wont die. and his name is badass. recruit or nah?

[dreamy plaza]

Oke

So... uhhh.. It's been a while since I've played GAMMA, and been even longer since I got deep into the zone and well.. I'm... Stuckin lab X8 and can't remember how to get out.

[slender niche]

Oh
Honestly just search for X8 document in debug and forget about it

[dreamy plaza]

Is this Ivan the terrible reference?

[late flower]

I have a 'orders of transsfer' and 'x8 document' but I still cant LEAVE

[slender niche]

[eager acorn]

sell it to certain faction leaders
i forgot which

[cinder silo]

i dont use gog

But arrrgh its so stupid. To get down I had to unlock the elevator shaft and climb down it so I thought the lift was out of service

[dreamy plaza]

It happens, I’ve found basic tools in Jupiter

[slender niche]

[eager acorn]

i also love how im messing with sss shit knowing i wont even play gamma for now

[shy bobcat]

I have a week off work starting Friday. I really hope the release date holds, and the installer is fixed for non-GOG installations!

[shy escarp]

then wait a week

or switch to linux

[lime pawn]

Does quicksave spamming lead to instability?

[slender niche]

You using an HDD?

[cinder silo]

will there be a fix in a week

[blazing harbor]

the ultimate fate of a bandit

[sonic kelp]

FACT: did you know there's a SECRET UN faction in stalker?
you just never see them because they do absolutely nothing

[vale star]

everything leads to instability.

[shy escarp]

yes with the release of the new update 0.9.5

[coral grove]

this thing being a pistol slotter is a warcrime

[lime pawn]

I have Friday off just out of sheer luck then I took Monday off so hopefully I can play 0.9.5 for 96 straight hours lmfao

[lime pawn]

M.2 ssd

[brave timber]

the most realistic part of stalker

[lime pawn]

Yeah alright fair enough lmfao

[slender niche]

Then game's just slow to record stuff on the disk

[shy bobcat]

I fear we're just jinxing it by now... Release will get postponed a week again 🙁

[prisma pumice]

If I have -10 electrical protection do I just take +10% damage

holy fuck

[spare otter]

Yea thats crazy

[shy bobcat]

Click the "1 event" link at the top of the channel list

[solid linden]

meh, fair autocomplete mod is kinda broken, big sad

[sonic kelp]

how so?

[vale star]

i use normal autocomplete and it's fine?

[solid linden]

its supposed to fail missions (without penalty), if someone else completes them, such as hunting mutants, etc

it keeps failing missions, when i do them myself as well

[prisma pumice]

awh man why is 9x39 so slow

[shy bobcat]

It's sub-sonic. That's the entire point!

[lime pawn]

Jesus fuck even in broad daylight psysuckers manage to scare the fuck out of me

[lime pawn]

May 8th!

[prisma pumice]

Yeah I suppose
Can you upgrade the muzzle velocity?

[lime pawn]

Do the subsonics actually make any difference for NPCs hearing your gun?

[vale star]

you can upgrade flatness, but not velo a faik

[lime pawn]

Flatness upgrades are kinda velocity upgrades

[calm jackal]

🫃

[sonic kelp]

flatness increases bullet speed and alleviates the drop off a LITTLE bit i think

[prisma pumice]

thank god then

[sonic kelp]

honestly just practice with it once you get a decent idea of the ranges 9x39 is insanely fun

[shy bobcat]

I... don't actually know. But they seem quite effective at sneak attacks.

[vale star]

tbh the drop was way way worse in the trilogy. you can almost snipe with it in gammamba

[prisma pumice]

I disassambled almost all of my 5.45, 5.56 and 7.62x39 to build 9x39 without looking at the velocity
At least Armour penetrating capability is good

[subtle hill]

@elfin pine we did it big slime

[lime pawn]

Yeah they hit like a truck, I love my VSS

[paper arch]

no

[bleak pebble]

Can I craft expert tools?

[eager acorn]

lower detection range iirc

[calm jackal]

None of that matters when you use the PKM upgraded to the max for RPM. Anything in the direction you are looking in is dead in five seconds

[eager acorn]

welp

[sonic kelp]

no, but the best place to get them is Outskirts/Pripyat/Hospital

[elfin pine]

actually..... yes

surprise surprise

[paper arch]

[lime pawn]

Also my fuckin PDA isn't displaying some of the kills from me or my companion, and I can't find any throughline for why

[eager acorn]

[shy bobcat]

I almost never disassemble ammo. I kinda like havning a weapon for each calibre, and switching it up whenever I run low on one type. Keeps things fresh.

[wanton aspen]

congrats

[calm jackal]

Don't need stealth when you have 7.62x54R brrrr

[lime pawn]

If an enemy bleeds out on the ground is the kill still attributed to the player? Or is it an environmental kill?

[eager acorn]

i almost gaslit myself

[shy belfry]

discord bot is still broken lmao

[elfin pine]

integrally suppressed 9x18 and 9x39 have the lowest detect ranges (ambient, not direct shot at npc) of 20m

[paper arch]

and is the "loudness" actually affected by velocity or is it just a discrete stat?

[vale star]

is this a thing or just flavah?

[shy belfry]

no ticket system, do I just @ping a random mod?

[final blaze]

Grab a pkm zenit from nimble in zaton, slap the big thermal scope on it and start playing Vova Vist simulator

[elfin pine]

compared to the usual sound ranges of 75 that other rifles have

[calm jackal]

Nah, you have to dissasemble ammo if you runn anything in a battle rifle cartridge.

[eager acorn]

oflin is here rn

[elfin pine]

hm?

[prisma pumice]

I did that on my save that got corrupted because I had TONS of ammo there, like 500+ rounds for every caliber and caliber type (AP, HP , FMJ etc.) but in this one I do not

I just visit garbage and red forest to buy lots of HP to craft more later

[frail vine]

[shy bobcat]

Nah, just hit with your shots 😛

[eager acorn]

vssk ammo the same or slightly different?

[final blaze]

Sadly the mutant damage is a bit mid, worse than 5.56 hp

[shy belfry]

rejoined server, reacting on the bot message to reverify doesn't give me the option to verify

[slender niche]

Sid will have them killed before you get the chance to talk to them

[calm jackal]

my sniper rifle

[blazing harbor]

accidentally unlocked radiotherapy lol

[elfin pine]

didn't check, i'd guess similar to the dvl-10 saboteur where its integral suppressor doesn't do anything

[calm jackal]

Hard to see with the NVGs but its a PKM zenit with a 10x scope

[shy bobcat]

I'm sure there is... something.. in that screenshot?

[last dawn]

quick question what would be the way to install the latest version of Atmospherics Ive already got the latest screen space shaders and the multithreaded engine upgrade.

[shy belfry]

my bot interaction freaked out while discord was down, still can't get it through

[elfin pine]

well you already have the newcomer role taken off, so idk what you're trying to verify

[paper arch]

so the gun tells how loud the gunshot is? with no relation to velocity etc.

[river pine]

anyone knows how much time will it take to fix the crashes on launch after updating gamma?

[elfin pine]

find atmos in #1035807043933720576 and look for the beta links

[slender niche]

For now 8th of this month

[lime pawn]

May 8th

[eager acorn]

RRRAAHHHH

idk if they meant the launcher issues or post-release issues

[eager acorn]

@viral raven

[shy belfry]

? cannot use any channels except for this one

[lime pawn]

I'm assuming with the newcomer tag they're meaning the #🖥️how-to-install crashes

[shy belfry]

last time I joined I had to do a little jerk around with the bot and tell it how long my gamma mod list is

[lime pawn]

hold on I think you might have a pixel in there

[elfin pine]

if you want to do it again that can be arranged

[eager acorn]

now I can't and I'm stuck in this channel

[potent dew]

are errors normal when downloading the install, like in the black window that oppens? after that i cant boot iup the game even thougfh everything is installed, antiviruss poff and everything man

[elfin pine]

#🖥️how-to-install

#📢announcements too

[calm jackal]

The gun pulls away from my shoulder

[lime pawn]

Well currently the launcher is broken and you can't install through the launcher at the moment, there was an issue with moddb after they updated some of their security

[potent dew]

a ok so we just ant rn install

[eager acorn]

gotta ask
has the installer bonked like this before

[slender niche]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1273533835082203198/1498824219331530994/caption.gif

[elfin pine]

yes actually

[lime pawn]

If you own a Stalker game on GOG you can install there just fine, or if you're on Linux you can install fine as well

[potent dew]

do i wait for 0.9.5?

[elfin pine]

just not for this long, because usually Grok was able to just work on it and fix it

[blazing harbor]

is the death truck modeled in anomaly

[shy bobcat]

It's a "to whomever it may concern in that general area" weapon? 😄

[elfin pine]

or do some workaround shit

[nova folio]

you got linked #🖥️how-to-install
open it, read it

[paper arch]

you don't have a choice

[lime pawn]

I would, it's only gonna be 5 days and the patch is gonna be big

nuh

unless you want to get linux, or spend $20 on GOG to buy it, yes

disappointing, i will murder a rookie loner now

[solid linden]

[lime pawn]

I mean technically they could drop $20 for Call of Pripyat on GOG and play immediately

[lime pawn]

You needed an excuse?

[blazing harbor]

yes, im a loner

[sonic kelp]

WHAT THE FUCK GIVE IT BACK I STOLE THAT FIRST

[elfin pine]

then idk what the issue is, no one gave you any special lock permissions or whatever

[nova folio]

you're literally in the main channel what are you talking about

[eager acorn]

#1035807043933720576 do you see this

[elfin pine]

leave and rejoin doesn't help?

[potent dew]

do i fully unnistall game or just keep the launcher and wait for it so i ca update

[eager acorn]

#╟❓general-offtopic or this

[elfin pine]

inb4 they want to chat in #╓☢stalker-chat

[calm jackal]

It's an exploit? I just kept crafting upgrade kits and applying them

[rugged oracle]

Has anyone expirimented with the multithreading EXEs yet? Hoping if it will help with my 8 year old CPU that bottlenecked the game for me.

[nova folio]

did you read

[eager acorn]

if you mean #╓☢stalker-chat you gotta rank up a little more

[potent dew]

yes,im new man sry

[shy bobcat]

Nobody wants to chat there. Everyone knows Newbie chat is where it's at!

[nova folio]

nothing to do with you being new

[lime pawn]

Either one, doesn't really matter atm

[solid linden]

its probably going to be a new launcher on may 8th

[final blaze]

Endless upgrading or converted guns inheriting old upgrades is not intended (but that shouldnt stop you from using it 🤣 )

[potent dew]

should i also unnistall anomaly for it to be clean clean?

[elfin pine]

you can keep files that you already extracted and whatnot, just wait for the fixed launcher

[lime pawn]

Oh shit wait is that why when I used the kit on my AK5C the upgrades reset but the stats remained?

[elfin pine]

or delete all and install again once its fixed

idk, either works

[sonic kelp]

upgrade exploit? 👀

[elfin pine]

yeah.... i gotta force people out sometime

[paper arch]

[final blaze]

Didnt know the pkm zenit can do it too, cant seem to reproduce it sadly

[lime pawn]

I think people just stay in Newbie chat because it's the first channel they can properly chat in and even when they unlock #╓☢stalker-chat they've already made a mental foothold here

[final blaze]

Yes Enjoy double the amount of upgrades on one gun

[elfin pine]

its been tested for a month or two in the 0.9.5 tester branch

#1467056699683770379 works great for 1% lows and frametime stabilization, performance increase isn't that huge

[eager acorn]

no i like my ego inducing role /j

[lime pawn]

I installed it last night and have seen mild performance increases but also my single-thread performance is really good

[eager acorn]

im technically still a newbie

[shy bobcat]

Guys... please don't report any bugs. Means they needs to be fixed, and the update might be delayed!

[lime pawn]

R7 7800x3D gang 🤙

[calm jackal]

Oh, the PKM was unupgraded before getting the Zenit.

[nova folio]

exactly
cant even figure out SSS

(i cant either i hate it)

[final blaze]

It let you spam recoil reduction upgrades endlessly? Doesnt seem to work for me for some reason

Only gun i know of that also has that goofy bug is ak105 shakal

[lime pawn]

Oh I will say with this, I have seen a marked increase in how quickly my full stashes open

[sonic kelp]

this tbh

[lofty ridge]

I chat here, despite being in this discord for about a year because I rarely speak

If I have a question, I just use the search

[calm jackal]

IIRC theres like 4 recoil reduction upgrades. How I upgrade the PKM is basically just RPM>Recoil>anything else

[eager acorn]

i love you

[final blaze]

Hm, weird

[elfin pine]

sure but its also just the activity

[lime pawn]

Yeah but then you won't get Miri making fun of you for asking a searchable question!

[final blaze]

Maybe your stat card is just bugged or something

[lime pawn]

Gotta live for the human interaction and mild degradation!

[calm jackal]

theres 5 recoil reduction upgrades.

[final blaze]

Yeah i tried them all, still cant get into negative lol

[final blaze]

I think your statcard is just bugged out

[vale star]

WHY CAN'T I RECORD ANYMORE AFTER UPDATING TO THIS NVIDIA APP BULLSHIT GAH

[coral raft]

Anyone ever have an issue where only some weapons ammo check animation works?

[vale star]

that's not an issue, old weapons dont have ammo check anim

[final blaze]

Yeah some just dont have an animation

[calm jackal]

probably. looking at all the upgrades it should just be -50%

[coral raft]

Oh alright

[lime pawn]

Some just don't have the anims yeah

[viral raven]

helo!!!! hiiii!! hgaiiii!!

[sonic kelp]

ammocheck expanded adds fake reload anims for checking tho right? could check that out if ur interested

[amber spade]

you again

[eager acorn]

hello

[final blaze]

I think so yeah

[amber spade]

and 3 vals

[viral raven]

FUCK YOU MEAN ME AGAIN? DID YOU BUY A NEW MICROPHONE

[lime pawn]

[final blaze]

It uses some goofy method where it takes the reload animation and freezes it to make an ammo check or something

[lime pawn]

that's you

[amber spade]

maybe...

[viral raven]

true!!!!!!!!!!!!! hiiii

[amber spade]

did you buy payday 2?

[calm jackal]

basically my thought process was if my RPMs were really high and recoil super low I could hit the enemy with a single burst each time to guarantee a kill instantly. Which pretty much works especially if using AP ammo it will even kill nosorogs in half a second

[lime pawn]

[rapid dust]

What could cause Monolith to be... Neutral to a Mercenary Player?

[final blaze]

Yea pkm zenit shreds

[lime pawn]

Find a hyperburst weapon like the AN-94

[final blaze]

Makes the game rlly easy lol

[amber spade]

this is @viral raven according to popular belief

[vale star]

fuck nvidia app fuck nvidia app remove nvidia app you are worst app you are app stink you are app smell. rerurn to your developer

I WANT TO RECORD. I COULD RECORD YESTERDAY AND NOW I CAN'T BECAUSE DESKTOP CAPTURE IS NOWHERE TO BE SEEN REEEE

Just get OBS like a normal person

But also in general just… being weird

[viral raven]

Is OBS on windows that dogshit?

[shy bobcat]

I think a few more capital letters might help

[vale star]

i'd rather record with my phone then

[amber spade]

it will be better

[final blaze]

Nvidia shadowplay used to work fine for me back when i had an NV card. if your NV card has a dual NVENC encoder you should suffer 0 performance loss when gaming and recording

[sonic kelp]

hi qtgenn

[trail laurel]

oh... wtf... sorry to hear that. Really love, zone storytelling. Why people need to do everything we love in a weird way >.<

[elfin pine]

A handful of users indeed caused the closing down of an entire channel

[final blaze]

OBS can also be configured to use NVENC hardware encoding ithink, kinda like shadowplay. OBS is good people just dont know how to use it

[eager acorn]

well its roleplay

[nova folio]

it physically shouldn't be possible unless you fucked up settings
Because both use hardware encoding

[viral raven]

BRAINFART UNREJECT?

oki i'll give obs a shot.

not the kind we welcome

It's roleplay about a harsh environment. About suffering and pain written in letters. Moral conflicts and thoughts... not "oh watch my boobs boys"

[viral raven]

(not in dms tho)

[elfin pine]

same goes for like.. loadout screenshots which often was used for character bios and whatnot

It ended up being a channel full of copypasted inventories

[bright mason]

it's in that? I'll check

[severe flower]

Can i somehow fetch/boil water and make vodka also?

[nova folio]

i think its there, can't check i deleted that mod

[vale star]

refillable canteens mod.

[rapid dust]

Anyone know why could monolith ignore a merc player when you hold the weapon down?

[trail laurel]

Thats sad... sick peoples.

[elfin pine]

[wild rain]

yo, will i run gamma on r7 5700G and 32gb ddr4-3600 on ubuntu?

[rapid dust]

Easily.

[final blaze]

GPU?

[wild rain]

r7 5700G

[muted patio]

Got any extra mods?

[final blaze]

Oof, maybe with dx8

[calm jackal]

I am a loot rat. My belt is entirely items that give more carry weight. I will drag a quarter metric ton of water canteens from the CNPP back to Cordon just because I might get thirsty at some point

[eager acorn]

i highly doubt roleplay in any game media take it seriously

[rapid dust]

Only a translation

[wild rain]

what bout anomaly

[eager acorn]

unless gta 5 rp, but thats another whole thing

[rapid dust]

Dx11 runs, just... A bit choppily

[wild rain]

will it be playable tho

[final blaze]

You could run gamma with dx8, the GPU performance requirement difference is massive compared to dx11 imo

[viral raven]

ubuntu :(((((((((

[muted patio]

Unfortunately for you
The stalker role play was literally not that
It was corny sex

[wild rain]

i have two options 32gb ram and r7 5700G.... or i3-7100U and gtx 940mx

[novel wharf]

dependfs on what you define as playable ? and what res and what is your min standards etc

[final blaze]

Probably, just try it out. If you only have an IGPU i recommend dx8 unless you want low fps

[trail laurel]

I really take it seriosly. Every playtrough needs a story behind

[wild rain]

does vulkan thing work with gamma

[final blaze]

I dont know

[viral raven]

dxvk, yeah

[calm jackal]

But theres like 2-3 women in the zone (Unless you count Monolith, for some reason I always run into female monolith)

[viral raven]

You either do Proton via Steam or via Lutris/Bottles

[wild rain]

i could play on windows but i am running services on it (2-5% on cpu)

[muted patio]

Who said it required women ?

@wild rain, remove your Newcomer role to:

• gain access to the restricted part of the server;
• ask for help/support with custom modlists (enabled/disabled mods in MO2);
• download additional mods for GAMMA;
• talk in the #╓☢stalker-chat (you'll need to be Rookie in order to post in this channel first)

▶️ Go to #⏩start-confirm to remove the role, but ONLY after you have successfully installed AND launched at least once the mod pack.

[eager acorn]

the painter of the zone overhaul in pins works fine

[frail vine]

that guy seems cool

[elfin pine]

!tools

[vale star]

real men use boykisser hip replacer

[hearty saffron]

@stiff summit
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.

.338 lapua is useless in that regard

then the pen one obviously

[sick grove]

doesn't really matter if you're firing lapua anyway

You can:
Install it on Linux; gamma-launcher works on linux
Own S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, or S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat, or S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat Enhanced Edition on GOG, and then install G.A.M.M.A. through GOG
Or wait for a fix that will be released around 8th of May, alongside, or shortly before, 0.9.5

[novel wharf]

What ever looks the best - only rule to live by..

[elfin pine]

.338 Lapua is 140AP, it can pen a nosorog

[calm jackal]

You right my b, I was thinking of .338 Federal

[final blaze]

Whats the highest armor value an npc can have anyway

[elfin pine]

65 iirc

[final blaze]

so SVD with AP will pen anything?

[wheat shadow]

Wait, what—Gamma runs on Linux? Does that mean I can finally uninstall this damn Windows?

[elfin pine]

on paper sure

[calm jackal]

better yet... PKM

[final blaze]

Dont ISG have like, +50% armor value tied to their faction or some shit? Wouldnt that mean an ISG nosorog has a lot more armor value than 65?

[eager acorn]

bro got the falco files

[calm jackal]

if it doesn't pen their armor itll do enough concussive damage to scramble their brains

[muted patio]

Falco has Alot of fans

[prisma pumice]

.338 lapua description says 'Unlimited (140)'

[final blaze]

Yeah itll pen anything at any range first shot. Walmart gauss rifle

[viral raven]

gauss sucks tho ;c

[final blaze]

crazy

[wheat shadow]

For me, the Gauss gun ruins immersion and is a dumb concept.

[elfin pine]

because everything else makes sense

Not sure why everyone says its bad

[final blaze]

I like using it.. when i have ammo

[calm jackal]

I don't use the gauss rifle but IIRC from CoP can't you craft ammo using battery artifacts?

[elfin pine]

i hate to break it to people

[gritty sand]

do someone have ryzen 5 5600 and 6800xt can say what fps they getting?

[vale star]

you use flash artefacts. same in gamma

[elfin pine]

but electromagnetically accelerated guns are real

[eager acorn]

so ig the new gauss model is more resembling of that huh

[elfin pine]

[formal sierra]

how so?

[wheat shadow]

testoviron mrrrr

[sick grove]

it was made from portions of the flash artifact for ammo

[vale star]

but need hella power and are still pretty ass because they destroy themselves

[viral raven]

[frail vine]

isnt ther a change coming to gamma to regarding gauss rifle
and overcharging it or am i tripping

[paper arch]

it's peak imo

[muted patio]

josta jumpscare

[eager acorn]

for efp

[gritty sand]

if not 4k then its bad

[elfin pine]

its fine

[wheat shadow]

Because it’s too powerful as a weapon, and for me it makes the whole game too easy, which removes the sense of challenge.

[elfin pine]

most likely 1080p

the engine is singlethreaded and mainly cpu bound

[sick grove]

Thought it was alright, but having the maximum charge being only .338 is kinda lame for a EM gun

[sonic kelp]

have you ever actually used the gauss rifle

[formal sierra]

now imagine that with the same level of tech that lead to rogue exoskeletons ending up in the hands of basically outlaws

[formal sierra]

that's not an immersion thing though, that's just gameplay balance

[elfin pine]

i mean what more do you need for anomaly ballistics

[vale star]

ok but exoskeletons are pretty simple viable tech

[final blaze]

Then just dont use it? The ammo is rare and expensive so thats kinda what makes up for it

[elfin pine]

remember that buckshot wins in vanilla

[paper arch]

it's not OP at all
like, not even close
a basic 556 is better

[frail vine]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/dltx-modded-exes-betachargeable-gauss-rifle
its this from #📎to-do

[elfin pine]

explosives in gamma are much, much, much more lethal than gauss

[eager acorn]

maybe fusion overhauls ballistics

[elfin pine]

grenade, ubgl, rocket

and not just for stalkers, its for everything

gauss is only usable for stalkers, it fails against mutants

[lyric notch]

gauss also costs a million to shoot cuz the bullets are made with artifacts

[elfin pine]

its just a glorified sniper rifle

[paper arch]

yeah, gotta remember that gauss is useless even against dogs

[gritty sand]

best raskie optimalisation

[final blaze]

Idk, i love the gauss. Is there anybody it doesnt oneshot kill? Maybe sin to the chest, but to the head they always drop in one hit

[sonic kelp]

for the low low price of
dogshit fire rate!
dogshit ammo efficiency!
dogshit fucking everything else!
YOU too can oneshot ONE (1) stalker (with a headshot)

[nova folio]

inb4 "then why does it only do 65% damage"

[frail vine]

u can get decent amount of ammo from white stashes

[viral raven]

trvke

[sonic kelp]

dont worry about how anything the gauss can do a 7.62 rifle can do better!

[calm jackal]

I forgot I had buckshot loaded in a saiga once. Ping ping ping ping "WHAT THE HELL?!-Oh..."

[nova folio]

gauss is probably the only "bad" gun GAMMA has

[frail vine]

i always end up with 100 rounds before even doing the gauss mission

[lyric notch]

Honestly I only like the gauss rifle because it feels like the finger of god against stalkers. you just click and they fall over. no recoil

[eager acorn]

one thing i like about the gauss in gamma is the gun model, especially new one

[elfin pine]

in vanilla anom you'd tear through an exo with buckshot

[final blaze]

Maybe not meta but definetly great fun to use imo

[sonic kelp]

design is like the only thing its got going for it

[novel wharf]

IDK 90% of guns at some point will do that - its not liek there is really a challenge to dropping them

[paper arch]

also vssk maybe

[calm jackal]

that's just silly

[frail vine]

one thing about gauss i like
hip with gauss

[elfin pine]

[formal sierra]

my point is that Stalkers are the last people who really ought to have exoskeletons, they're a bunch of criminals that aren't legally allowed in the zone, which might as well be the most important place on the entire planet

[sick grove]

then you miss somehow and lament the waste of that single shot

[eager acorn]

vssk is peak wym

[paper arch]

it is

[calm jackal]

pretty sure 3a bodyarmour can stop 12 ga buckshot

[sonic kelp]

-# *every five minutes which is about the time it takes for the fucking thing to cool down

[slender niche]

I should give the guass a try outside of killing Eidolon

[sonic kelp]

can you tell i hate the gauss

[paper arch]

aesthetically, absolutely
probably top 2 sniper in terms of looks

[wheat shadow]

Okay, I admit I only know that weapon from the trilogy, and even back then I didn’t like it, so I completely ignored its existence.

[slender niche]

It's overly OP

[sick grove]

elephant foot

[lyric notch]

The difference is definitely sound and recoil. The guass rifle has basically neither which is just satisfying imo

[formal sierra]

overly overpowered?

Okay, two things
For one, the SVD actually has a good shoot sound effect
Second, it has no thermals.

[sonic kelp]

late game legendarily mythical item said to be the ultimate weapon gets utterly mogged by anything above 5.56 to the point its arguably obsolete

its also an issue with 556 being too op

but the svds all do have thermals..

can't you attach that one soviet thermal that was once a night vision scope?

tried MT?

[frail vine]

can u confirm the lag happens when doing a 360 or looking at a certain direction?

[vale star]

just turning, direction has no relevancy

[sonic kelp]

!stutter // could be something to do with culling?

[hearty saffron]

@vale star
Assuming you are on the latest version of GAMMA, try any one of these at a time (in no particular order) to see if it helps with stutters or microfreezes:

1. Bring your modlist back to default (type !default in #🤖bot-commands )
2. If you have a NVIDIA GPU, you can enable Triple Buffering, and set Low Latency Mode to Ultra in NVIDIA control panel
3. Open Anomaly Launcher via MO2 and tick Prefetch sounds
4. If you have a beefy GPU, use Anomaly (DX11) (no avx)
5. Activate the Turn this on if you stutter mod to alleviate stutters while losing some FPS
6. Consider looking at #╰⚡fps-optimisation for a performance boost, if that channel is locked go here to unlock: #⏩start-confirm
7. In game, go to Settings > Modded Exes > Optimization > Lua Garbage Collector and increase this bit by bit until microstutters/freezes stop. Default value is 300, people seem to find that 750-800 is the sweet spot, this will depend on your hardware

[blissful mantle]

Hey, have a gameplay question, how do stashes work that you get from quests, can i have any amount of them and same for yellow+ stashes, can i have several on same map? or is there a cap and i need to pick them up as soon as i get one yellow?

[lyric notch]

no cap afaik. they just sit there and wait for you

[frail vine]

no idea then

[vale star]

no, but tried shroomhead and same shit

[sonic kelp]

!stash // no cap, you can have as many as you want waiting there

[hearty saffron]

Stashes are empty by default. Getting stashes is the main way of progressing in GAMMA. White stashes can contain helpful gear, while yellow stashes are guaranteed to have a toolkit in addition to regular stash contents. Stash locations are determined based on where you are when you receive the coordinate, they always generate in or near the area you are currently located.

How to get stash coordinates:

1. Complete tasks (this is the main source of stash coordinates)
2. Loot dead bodies
3. Read looted PDAs (right click -> View them in inventory). If it's locked, go to a mechanic to unlock it
4. Buy coordinates from Sid or Cold (only available in the south)

How to get yellow stashes:

1. Complete 7 tasks
2. Get a stash coordinate afterwards - this can be from any source, e.g. the 8th task, a PDA, looting a body
3. That stash coordinate has a 50% chance to be a yellow stash. If you didn't get it, keep doing step 2 until you get a yellow stash

Exact stash location generation spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uQxe5sVL5UHHkGYdRqtgsh5OrLX1MfwdZrMJG1IuRAs/edit?usp=sharing

[autumn elm]

No cap

[viral raven]

Do mt

[stiff summit]

honestly it should, its a portable particle accelerator

[vale star]

no change

[formal sierra]

hypothetically you could eventually fill up every single stash location on every map

[final blaze]

I think there is a limited amount of possible stash locations given on a single map but theres so many that itd take ages to run out

[blissful mantle]

@val @lyric notch ty guys

[novel wharf]

does changig down res / setting make any difference ?

[sonic kelp]

ummmmmmmmmmm maybe render distance then ???

[crystal basalt]

Thanks!

[autumn elm]

The meta is actually getting a ton of southern stashes so quests give you more northern ones (if that hasn't changed since then)

[nova folio]

you dont happen to have some wacky settings enables like grass shadows?

[sonic kelp]

nah, stashes spawn relative to your current position and immediately adjacent maps

[frail vine]

no. no grass shadows, render distance is what i think is the normal distance everyone should be able to play with

[autumn elm]

Ah

[novel wharf]

no 2 pcs ever play the same lol - but try lower settings / res just for a test

[quick shore]

js nuke your graphics to default and hope it gets fixed 🙏

[final blaze]

I used to have bad stutters but then i followed all the steps in !stutter and installed demonized multithreading exes and its gotten significantly better. Microstutters will still always exist though in gamma even with great hardware because thousands of sloppily written lua scripts cobbled together by random dudes in attics

[lyric notch]

some dipshit with a shak 12 always gets me

[novel wharf]

just test the turning - that is all

[vale star]

they pretty much are at default

[novel wharf]

it is a process to point to the cause - this is troubleshooting 101

[vale star]

i did and that's what happened. there's still some stuttering but not nearly as bad but again, not gonna play on low res

[novel wharf]

how much vram you runnign ?

if you don't want additional file bloat - clean install
if you don't mind - update over existing installation

in nvidia control panel everything is either off or high performance

[hoary estuary]

is there any mod to hide bhs hud outside of inventory and move it to inventory to look something like this? (saw something like it on some gamma screenshots, but never found which mod lets you change hud to this)

[cloud moat]

my companion just survived a brawl with a black chimera

[hushed rain]

Once the new launcher is working and all that, will I be able to reinstall the previous version of gamma so I can use my old save file? I’m guessing not

[balmy nacelle]

am I crazy or in hard mode there is way more bandits than in medium?

[nova folio]

!shader // maybe post a modlist on #🔨modded-gamma-support at this point and ask for help there

[hearty saffron]

@vale star To clean your "Shader Cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[final blaze]

I think its just survivorship bias. Most people read and understand, you just dont notice them because well they understand and dont say or ask anything. Its just the ones that are confused and dont read, the loud minority that you notice

[bleak pebble]

Where is the guy that gives specific missions to kill high ranking stalkers found?

[trail laurel]

No. But there will be a mod to transfer your character into the new safe

[elfin pine]

0.9.4 will not be obtainable after 0.9.5 releases

[sonic kelp]

not sure, 0.9.5 is wholly incompatible with older savefiles and idk if the new launcher will allow you to install older versions

[next chasm]

how do i repair artefacts?

[sonic kelp]

Snitch in the 100 rads bar

[bleak pebble]

[elfin pine]

MAYBE gog will keep 0.9.4 snapshot but not the manual install launcher

[trail laurel]

New engine mod for multithreading -> old safe not compatible.

[elfin pine]

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message < read this

[vale star]

deleting shader cache does nothing. my modlist is mostly just qol shit, weapons packs and some added mechanics, nothing that would cause that much stutter. and it's been the same for a fresh gamma install so irrelevant

[hushed rain]

Gotcha, not a big deal as fresh runs are fun but I got much farther into a run than I ever had before and then my game started crashing a ton, my install is borked

[sonic kelp]

how do you just have these on standby, holy

[trail laurel]

You can use this mod then https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/new-game-enhanced-character-transfer-mod

[balmy nacelle]

is this an addon you instaled or its in the modpack?

[final blaze]

Doubt thats the reason, i applied the new engine to an existing save. Appearently one of the reasons of save incompatability is upgrade tree reworks

[elfin pine]

the engine isn't savefile incompatible yet, but its the other changes such as upgrade trees on guns/armor that will crash if mismatching
