@oak nest Use the mod name search bar to find mods in MO2, and use the mod files search bar to find which files are from which mods.⠀

[rain bolt]

I'm just not above 500 goodwill with any nato faction lol

[unborn halo]

The disguise wasnt working

[lucid valley]

[plush karma]

Lol fuck these losers

Assholes literally shoot you when you are trying to pass by

[unborn halo]

i tried being civil yk, got and fixed the disguise, i just wanted a sample artifact

ill prob load a save, just wanted to blow some steam after failing like 5 times to get through

[elfin pine]

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message < its interesting that someone wants to try a similar idea

[unborn halo]

These fucks are not worth the ammo and meds i used lmao

and i only used fmj

[plush karma]

If you find a .357 gun you can wipe them out easily

And with cheap ammo

[unborn halo]

ooh i might come back with the lever action

i fixed it but havent used it yet

hot take, the freedom base on dark valley was cooler

fuck

I coulve just climbed

i forget about the ledge grab

just chilling

[limpid briar]

oi does cuurent download for gamma work?

[radiant dune]

#🖥️how-to-install

[plush karma]

Only gog

[tired steppe]

gog is an old snapshot from 5 months ago keep that in mind

[plush karma]

GoG is 0.9.4 version

[limpid briar]

where do find

[tired steppe]

yea but mods will not be updated

https://www.gog.com/en/game/stalker_gamma

[lucid valley]

GoG costs money for gamma

[unborn halo]

BRUH

[tired steppe]

yeaa you need to own one of the original games

[plush karma]

OTS01 OP, killed it with just 2 mags

[limpid briar]

gsc playin with us huh

[tired steppe]

yeaa but i guess it supports them

[unborn halo]

Chimeras got nerfed hard

[eager acorn]

its just how gog operates

[limpid briar]

tru

[unborn halo]

or guns buffed hard one of those

[eager acorn]

its the same with anomaly even tho is free on moddb

[plush karma]

Okay I thought the health is much lower feel like boar tier

[eager acorn]

its more for the people that already had the intent of playing the other titles
the gamma as a bonus pretty much

[mild shoal]

https://klipy.com/gifs/conspiracy-theory-1--k01KQXH51MAJ80WDX8QATN03YPH

[unborn halo]

Chimeras are just bigger lurkers

[tired steppe]

i just got it for the 1 click install lol

[limpid briar]

yea ive already played all older titles long time ago

[unborn halo]

they die in like four buckshots

[eager acorn]

which is fair

[unborn halo]

i dread bloodsuckers more lmao

[eager acorn]

iirc you can still update gog GAMMA. same process as normal

[tired steppe]

i still had to move the folders to c drive so i could use gamma launcher tho

[eager acorn]

tho ig with installer being down rn you cant anyway

[plush karma]

🤔 I also killed bloodsucker with the noob smg seem like it’s super OP with hp rounds

[mild shoal]

anythign with hp is op against mutant

[unborn halo]

yes, it install mo2 and the launcher and all that

[mild shoal]

hp pistol, hp rifle, hp smg, hp crossbow

hp knife

[eager acorn]

where the hell are crossbows

[plush karma]

What is hp crossbow

[tired steppe]

just need to move files out of program files folder

[mild shoal]

hp grenades

[narrow wedge]

hp .50bmg

[mild shoal]

just add hp to it and mutant fall over from over keel

[unborn halo]

you can just open the launcher an update like normal

[tired steppe]

oh no way!! i was told to move it out

[eager acorn]

#💽how-to-update not for now tho lol

[unborn halo]

my only regreat is i wish i had bought th collection when it was on sale

[unborn halo]

yes

[eager acorn]

so you can technically just download the gog gamma how many times you want right?

[timber oak]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1029824156289732649/1498826893594591272/READ.gif

[unborn halo]

ye kinda

[eager acorn]

500 Gamma.

[unborn halo]

for that you want to move it out tho, so it thinks you removed it

[thorny forum]

my favorite part of the mod is when i stalk the gamma(i cannot download it)

[unborn halo]

im immune to raddiation

im go swim in the reactor water

its blinking red cuz i ate some dog chops i found on the ground

[slate venture]

walk on the uhhhhhhh railing

[unborn halo]

it still damages you, i just got a pill and run hopped through

[slate venture]

🐴

[swift chasm]

i wanna play gamma so bad but its not available atm so i have to sit and wait to play peak

[unborn halo]

got a bit of suit damage but meh, just annoying cuz i just healed my legs

[ebon stratus]

will 0.9.5 release alongside the new launcher?

[swift chasm]

i have no clue

[ebon stratus]

completely fair and valid response

[keen sedge]

Looks to be the case

[lucid valley]

yes

[remote fossil]

095 was originally scheduled for May 1st. it's because of the Laucher issues that it was delayed to May 8th

[keen sedge]

I don't think they asked why

😭

[ebon stratus]

the info's nice to have regardless lol

thanks people

[alpine burrow]

are new gamma version releases usually buggy or no

[keen sedge]

I thought it was known cause he did announce it

[remote fossil]

it can be. there will be bug fixes in the first few days after

[keen sedge]

Wrong gif in so sorry

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1029824156289732649/1498826893594591272/READ.gif

https://tenor.com/view/abell46s-crying-conan-obrien-llorar-gif-18525170

[tawdry fox]

ah well, maybe I can get a few extra days learning out of my 9.4 then.

[oak nest]

Ok will try to do thay

[swift chasm]

is there like a backport of gamma i could play or is it completely fucked

[keen sedge]

🤯

[slate venture]

gog flavor should work

[keen sedge]

U kinda just have to wait for now unfortunately

[vivid path]

Ok so why does the artifact melter actually suggest using artifacts on the belt?? This was a problem a while back for me when it once ate an arti on my belt without notice.

It's like yeah let's empower this artifact, you weren't using this one right? Ok good eats it

[keen sedge]

It will be fixed in 0.9.5

[vivid path]

Ah gotcha

[slate venture]

I'd recommend just waiting until 0.9.5 because like I dunno spending money sucks yo

[ebon stratus]

afaik the issue is with moddb being a bitch and so any form of retrieval of mods from moddb using the currently available launchers won't work properly

[lucid valley]

GoG, but costs money, linux installation, needs linux

[ebon stratus]

I don't actually see how this could be a problem. Surely you just end up with an artefact on your belt that's better now?

[swift chasm]

i dont wanna give gog money i wanna give gamma man money >:[

[slate venture]

👁️ 👄 👁️

[plush karma]

Well if they are doing it for free🤷

[unborn halo]

Then wait

[slate venture]

modb also isn't nexus mods and evil bastard

[ebon stratus]

like maybe it's a pain that you have to re-equip the artefact. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the issue too though lmao

[eager acorn]

#💰donations idk
gamma is free

[unborn halo]

I like gog, and what they stand for, so having gamma there is very convenient

[indigo saffron]

just like winrar

[plush karma]

I’ve been downloading nude mods from nexus since 14 or something

[ebon stratus]

I meant more the moddb system changed or fucked up somehow. I'm not entirely sure — just know it wasn't meant to be an insult to the people who host and maintain moddb

[real forge]

I don't see the why for talk bad about moddb, seems a shrimple humble platform, nothing like nexus mod or smth, idk, that's ma opinion

[lucid valley]

then wait till m,ay 8th

[eager acorn]

just wait a couple days, it aint that long

[swift chasm]

if it gets delayed i will blow up

[limpid briar]

i may have just found it on an old archive

[slate venture]

Gog is cool I just have most of my games on steam and it is what I am most comfortable with using. They have pretty good sales too that gog fellers.

[ebon stratus]

and act like you don't know nobody?

[distant dirge]

i feel the pain of waiting but we right there, i started a new playthrough before I knew about the update and now im patiently waiting for the glory of multithreading cuz fending off these monololith be hard with tanked frames

[slate venture]

you'll live

[ebon stratus]

not if they blow up

[slate venture]

just wear artifact

[ebon stratus]

I'd rather wear burer hide. Increased carry weight AND explosion resist

[crude pine]

what does this even mean lol, can't tell if the bounty is for me or not

[azure tangle]

im new to pc and wanna download gamma but it says do not download. anyone know when gamma will be able to download

[distant dirge]

#📢announcements

[odd sun]

oh hello

[real forge]

Do u know that there more stalkermods in the world

[swift chasm]

they should add faction roles so we can all be idealist towards one another

[remote fossil]

the announcement says release is planned for May 8th

[ebon stratus]

I'm guessing your name isn't $who lol

[swift chasm]

ima aware gamma is just my favorite

[slate venture]

go play reborn trilogy

[ebon stratus]

UMP45+

[swift chasm]

neva

tho i am thinking about picking up efp

[real forge]

I think that the beginning of Reborn Another Way is one of the most scary parts in stalker ever made

[slate venture]

hehe

[odd sun]

still better than a tommy gun i bet

[crude pine]

nope. lol

[slate venture]

I played last day recently and actually quite enjoyed it. Older COC based things are fun to look back on

[eager acorn]

is that the .45 one?

[crude pine]

no special characters in my either so idk

[odd sun]

yes

[real forge]

The last CoCk that i played is VESSEL, u should play it someday, but is not freeplay

[distant dirge]

question, for the big update I wanna do my first full run. Ideally a faction that has access to some cool spaces to make hideouts and can still do main story, any ideas for some fun themed runs? I also wanna run warsaw weapons ideally

[ebon stratus]

I love the UMP45 — it's my favourite gun — but the Fraiser is literally just a better version of the UMP
We don't talk about the Tommy Gun.

[slate venture]

VESSEL? Sounds intresting I'd like to be informed of this

[eager acorn]

mercenary

[real forge]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-vessel-mod

[keen sedge]

Someone is going to jump you

[eager acorn]

well if WP uhhh
duty? orrr just loners

[odd sun]

wtf a fracture just dropped a primus

[crude pine]

i'm guessing so. doubt the game would glitch the npc names so

[distant dirge]

yeah ive been eyeing duty, i wouldn't mind a loner run

[slate venture]

Seems cool though I don't speak the language

[distant dirge]

I think i will want to eventually do a unisg run but i kinda wanna finish the main story before I do that

[keen sedge]

Typically it shows your name in that message

[slate venture]

I also played OP 2.2 a bit ago and that was an experience

[keen sedge]

And then there's a chance you get jumped

[woeful pecan]

Hi chat
Never understood why the apoc helmet has so much rad resistance when there's no mask 👁️

[ebon stratus]

my guess is that Lua, or whatever scripting language the game uses, fucked up and used the variable named $who which was meant to hold the string for your stalker's name, but instead just printed out the name of the variable instead

[real forge]

there a english translation in development, perhaps would be released between these months

[keen sedge]

Or i just get some goofy timing

[eager acorn]

iirc its not an actual apoc helmet
but is similar

[slate venture]

That'd be cool. I'll keep a lookout on it and try it out when it becomes avalible

[crude pine]

yeah that's a reasonable explanation tbh

[keen sedge]

Read the description

[eager acorn]

dont ask me too much on it, i just remember a modder telling abt it like weeks ago

[woeful pecan]

I thought I did and it said like, something about having the same mount of a gas mask or something?
But I don't remember it mentioning it actually has one-

[keen sedge]

It does, the icon just doesn't have it

[woeful pecan]

Do you mean not actually an altyn

[woeful pecan]

Ohhhh
Gotcha, ty!!!
I guess it does on the worn model then?

[ebon stratus]

it's probably a fallback if your name has any forbidden characters in it that can't be displayed via the PDA notifications too, in case that's the reason

[keen sedge]

Helms don't affect the player model but npcs in dux it does

[crude pine]

Think the game is just spazzing out this time lol, no unusual/special characters in my name

[ebon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/lil-yachty-drake-gif-21712801

[crude pine]

unless the space in my name is somehow forbidden

anyways hopefully loot pinata arrives soon

[solid trout]

actor foot steps are so loud

is there a way to turn them down?

[slate venture]

normalize having multiple audio channels

[unborn halo]

The apoc helm has tho, its the Spartan helmet from metro

[solid trout]

how do I do that?

[unborn halo]

im crazy?

[slate venture]

you dont

[plush karma]

I'm stuck here with 20 assholes downstairs

[woeful pecan]

Ohhhh
I LOVE that helmet design from Metro

[fallow quest]

Not in this engine

[slate venture]

yeah

[fallow quest]

[keen sedge]

Best helm in the game

[woeful pecan]

Wait
Isn't that the Spartan helmet? The exo class one

[keen sedge]

Yes

[wild patrol]

Shrimp that sleeps, the wave sweeps

[unborn halo]

i see the icon replaced it for a altyn, i see

[eager acorn]

hii miri

[fallow quest]

Hello

[woeful pecan]

They LIED to me....
And yeah I have an Apoc and a Spatan in my stash
Not wearing either because I don't have the repair kits for them yet- 30%-ish durability rn

[timber flower]

Have you tried shooting them?

[alpine burrow]

any list of new weaps in 9.5

[unborn halo]

just checked the wiki, i dont know why they did that, but yeah the apoc helmet is supposed to be the spartan helmet from metro not the altyn

[plush karma]

There’s like 20 of them lol I started a new save

[keen sedge]

Apocalypse is 2nd best and spartan the 1st bes🔥

[sinful prism]

best scope in the game

[fallow quest]

Quoting oflin : it'll add the Mac-10, MTs-255, MSBS Grot and three different Uzi SMG's

[keen sedge]

Its an icon mod

[woeful pecan]

WIN!!!
Hopefully I can find one more set of advanced(?) tools for the heavy armor repair kit then
Dunno what you need for the exo repair kit but I'm guessing I'd be better off unlocking the North before that lol

[wild patrol]

I don't care if grok will make the mac-10 9mm for balance, i'm putting that bad boy back into the .45 caliber

What is this msbs grot tho

[fallow quest]

Probably a weapon

[unborn halo]

This is the actual Apoc helmet

[wild patrol]

Yeah the metro helmet

[keen sedge]

You can't get exo till you find the recipe book off a master or legend npc and get expert tools in the north

[eager acorn]

!exo

[hearty saffron]

@eager acorn
Exoskeleton Repair Kit and T4 Artefact craft recipes can be found with 4% chance when looting stalkers of:

• Monolith, Sin, UNISG and Mercenaries of Master or Legend rank
• other factions (except Renegades) of Legend rank

[wild patrol]

Start mass murdering monolith

[keen sedge]

Literally what I just said

[woeful pecan]

Ahhh gotcha
Yeah I was HOPING to use the exoskeleton I have stored in my stash (repair it) for the brain scorcher but uh
Maybe for the miracle machine instead?

[keen sedge]

After both

You cant get expert till the north

[woeful pecan]

Oh I didn't realize you gotta take em both out
Darn

[keen sedge]

Just use some heavy armor or even some good medium armor

[woeful pecan]

I got my SEVA suit

[wild patrol]

You just need a seva suit and some okay-ish T1-T2 artifacts

The best SEVA suits are the armored ones from duty and mercs

[woeful pecan]

I have some artifacts but I don't think any of them are that good sadly

[wild patrol]

16% BR and 5 slots is very good for a medium armor

[woeful pecan]

Which artifacts would you reccomend?

[elfin pine]

ACR at home at home

[wild patrol]

Jellyfish, wrenched, empty are good ones

[keen sedge]

🔥

[elfin pine]

basically yet another 5.56

[woeful pecan]

Gotcha, I have none of those last I remember from my stashes so I'll have to go and find those

[wild patrol]

I'm not complainin'

[unborn halo]

get decent psy protection

[lime pawn]

Is there a 6 slot heavy armor?

[wild patrol]

Seva has good psy protection

[wild patrol]

The proto exos have usually 5-7 slots

[woeful pecan]

Yeah and I'll have my apoc helmet
Think that has some psy protection, right?

[wild patrol]

Monolith and unisg has 7

[unborn halo]

My biggest pain on x16 was the psy ghosts

[unborn halo]

bring some weed and you will be gold for the most

[wild patrol]

Apocalypse helmet is the best helmet you can have before having to upgrade to an exo

[woeful pecan]

Baggies or joints? I have a bunch of joints (7)

[wild patrol]

Weed is useless, use psy-block

It won't put you to sleep instantly

[woeful pecan]

Think I have a bunch of that in my stash

[unborn halo]

weed regens psy

[eager acorn]

im gonna ban apoc helmet on my runs just cause

[wild patrol]

Weed is for when you want to sleep, it eats a LOT of your sleep and hunger bars

For psy-res you should use either eptrazine or psy-block

[unborn halo]

just down energy drinks

[remote fossil]

for psy res you can use Psyblock or Etperazine or Psysucker Ghoulash. it's also totally okay to bring 2 armors. one for the initial Psy issues and switch to another one for rupture

[woeful pecan]

I still don't understand what rupture damage is tbh
Is it melee?

[wild patrol]

2 armors? with what carry weight

[keen sedge]

Bleed chance

[remote fossil]

mutants

[woeful pecan]

Ah gotcha

[lucid valley]

bleed i think

[eager acorn]

mutant damage

[wild patrol]

Melee damage mutants deal to you

[unborn halo]

melee

[elfin pine]

Nuh

[keen sedge]

Mutant is impact i thought?

[woeful pecan]

WHICH IS IT!!!

[eager acorn]

bleed is not rupture lol

[grim hemlock]

i want to start new campain do i wait for the pach?

[wild patrol]

Some mutants deal other kinds of damage, burers attack you with impact damage

[remote fossil]

impact is from impact anomalies

[fallow quest]

Yes, needs a new save anyway

[unborn halo]

rupture is for mutants

[elfin pine]

Ballistic Resistance - Damage reduction from getting shot
BR Class - Armor ability to stop bullets
Burn, Elec, Chem, Rad res - The name tells you all
Psy Resistance - resistance to psy damage from controllers, psy fields etc
Rupture resistance - damage reduction from being hit by mutants and melee
Explosive resistance - obvious
Impact resistance - gravitational anomalies, burer blast, pseudogiant shockwaves, objects thrown at you

[wild patrol]

Psy-suckers and controllers attack you with both rupture and psy damage

[grim hemlock]

thx kind ser

[woeful pecan]

Okie dokie

[keen sedge]

Interesting

You'd think because its called rupture resist it has to do with resisting rupture but ig not😭

[eager acorn]

bleed chance is when you use artis with -bleed

[woeful pecan]

Almost ready for the brain scorcher then
Just gotta go ahead and find those artifacts (empty, jellyfish, wrenched) I suppose, and make a heavy armor kit
First time ever playing GAMMA so, dunno what's actually there

[elfin pine]

bleed chance is just… bleed chance

[eager acorn]

what if im a robot

[wild patrol]

Bleed chance in 0.9.4 is kiiiiinda tied to your BR class

[keen sedge]

Those affect how fast it heals(the blead)

[remote fossil]

do you have a Pseudogiant pelt

[elfin pine]

Always was

[wild patrol]

If your BRC is low, there's a much higher chance of you starting to bleed from bullets and attacks if the enemy is using high calibers or AP ammo

[woeful pecan]

I've tried a few times but no dice
Currently I'm using the burer skin

[eager acorn]

yeah theres not a really a thing to make the chances of bleed lower or higher lol

[keen sedge]

Brc

[elfin pine]

BR Class

[wild patrol]

It doesn't matter now, as 0.9.5 is right around the corner and will overhaul this system completely

[elfin pine]

non-pen hits prevent bleeding

[next yarrow]

Is there a flag that needs to be set in order for Monolith to raid the barrier? Zombies have attacked the barrier three times in a row.

[elfin pine]

Pen hits allow for bleeding

[wild patrol]

FUCK the old BRC system, all my homies fuck with the new BRC system

[elfin pine]

Its a 50/50 chance

reload save and you might get different rng

[next yarrow]

Just unlucky then. Thanks

[remote fossil]

well in that case you might consider bringing some Morphine. it gives ballistic/rupture/impact/explo res

[elfin pine]

Bleed severity on hit is based on rng and i think damage intake (more damage = more severe bleed)

Bleed getting worse or better over time is based on your bleed control stat

[woeful pecan]

Gotcha
SHOULD have some in my stash, I stored almost everything medical-wise except for some bandages, medkits, and yadulin

[wild patrol]

Having artifacts that give you negative bleed res literally makes your character contract hemophilia

So you better patch up that papercut

[elfin pine]

kid named stimpack

[eager acorn]

[remote fossil]

oh also, Epinephrine can be great for Brain Scorcher since it's a race against time

[fallow quest]

Loot on the way back

[plush karma]

I saved like 12 M203 grenades

[zealous mulch]

i forgot that the toggle hud button is the same as the assault armor button

[wild patrol]

There's more than enough time to finish the rainbow emitter imo

[woeful pecan]

Hmmmm
Dunno if I have any
Might have some?? If not I'll buy a few

[wild patrol]

As long as you don't keep stopping to loot like a dumbass

[crude pine]

does anybody know if bounty squads can travel to any map? they still haven't showed up

[wild patrol]

There's no bounty squads without extra mods

[sinful violet]

is the sr-2m veresk worth it? i was thinking of putting the kit on it

[wild patrol]

You can enable "enable mugging squads" but it's kinda different

[radiant dune]

it's goated

[unborn halo]

yes

[wild patrol]

Don't, it's a waste of money, try to find an already kitted out one

The veresk IS pretty strong tho, literally 0 recoil

But do not waste money on the kit, enemies regularly drop the kitted one

[unborn halo]

Kits in general need some adjusting

[sinful violet]

damn never found the kitted one

[wild patrol]

Kill more duty

[radiant dune]

prices are getting reduced

[sinful violet]

will probably buy the kit anyway, bandit life really pays off

[radiant dune]

Duty and Military have it often

[wild patrol]

So will thermals stop costing nearly 400k?

[unborn halo]

yes it just makes no sense the pl-15 kit being 46 grand

its a rmr and a laser

[ebon stratus]

does increasing psy resistance increase the speed at which you recover psy health? I feel like I've noticed that a bit but it also definitely could be my brain connecting dots that aren't there

[unborn halo]

thats weed

[remote fossil]

yes the bounty squads will follow you directly to your position regardless of map

[elfin pine]

Uhh not sure, maybe slightly

Meds also slightly boost psy regen and belt utilities give a significant regen buff

[ebon stratus]

hmmm something to tinker with then I guess, thanks

[unborn halo]

joints are goated if you have decent psy res

the bags of weed only if you have coffe or energy drinks

[ebon stratus]

are the bags just worse then? Or are they better for psy regen but make you too sleepy

[wild patrol]

Meds massively raise the regen

Not sure about the psy-res from armors though, i didn't notice it regenerating faster with them, and artis make it come back real fast

[sinful violet]

so the time they take to reach you is variable? i guess i only ever saw one squad of mercs try to kill me, and i remember getting a lot of warnings in the pda in several runs

[elfin pine]

It was nerfed a bit

[wild patrol]

WHY

[elfin pine]

Too much reliance on just meds to tank stuff

[wild patrol]

Did grok also nerf those damn ghosts at least? because FUCK ME, are they horribly damaging

[ebon stratus]

I've had no warnings sometimes when a Monolith hit squad descends upon me

[remote fossil]

as far as I know, they need to travel across the maps to get to you

[elfin pine]

And this is for 0.9.4 btw

not 0.9.5

[wild patrol]

Can't even THINK of having to kill a psy-sucker early on, the bastards kill you in 3 ghosts when you only have light armor and no meds

[elfin pine]

Regen from 0.9.3 was hella quick on just psy block

And you’d get like 40-50 psy res easy

[unborn halo]

They still hit hard, but with like 40-50 res its chill plus meds of course

[elfin pine]

currently the same amount of psy regen is obtained by wearing a pelt/artefact while the medical one was nerfed

They’re stackable ofc

[unborn halo]

its just hell tho when you got like three or four enemies for the ghost to hit you, its just chaos

[ebon stratus]

I dunno if it's 0.9.4 or what but I remember picking up GAMMA again and seeing that a controller doing the 'look at me' thing wiped like 95% of my psy health in one move when I just started an invictus run

[unborn halo]

they still two shot you most of the time

[wild patrol]

You're lucky it's not an instakill

[elfin pine]

It was like that since the psy rework in 0.9.1

[wild patrol]

The homer simpson mfers deal a fuckton of psy damage

[elfin pine]

Which is honestly good

As in 0.9.0 you’d just tank those attacks left and right

The only time controllers were a problem was with the kill aura

[ebon stratus]

weird, I never remembered them doing that much. Then again it was a long time before that that I played last

[sinful violet]

i didnt catch that similarity before lol

[unborn halo]

Their range is stupid high, it goes through some covers but they are very easy to deal with if you have some hp ammo

[wild patrol]

If they can see you and you can't see them, start praying your death will be quick

Or idk, hide behind a rock and see if the bastard can still see you

Wait until he comes close and blast em

[remote fossil]

controllers have one of the highest damage multipliers for hitting the head at 4x

[fresh shale]

where's the best place to sell artifacts?

[wild patrol]

That's where all their nasty powers come from

[remote fossil]

Scientists

[sinful violet]

not too close though or you'll kill yourself

[ebon stratus]

Army Warehouses bloodsucker village had me die to the homers a few times

[unborn halo]

there nothing more terrifying than hearing the charging noise and not being able to see the cunt

[wild patrol]

Don't sell artifacts, get task givers to find artifacts, these yield the real money

[unborn halo]

Scientists for artifacts and hunters for the mutant parts

[wild patrol]

One 99% artifact can get you from 50-150k depending on rarity

[fresh shale]

Got it

[unborn halo]

Those being butcher and forester(?)

[sinful violet]

my first encounter with a controller was also my first time in truck cemetery, at the exact time he charged his attack and made that loud noise, a pulse appeared above me, i almost insta closed the game

[raw helm]

If i want to change a suit to my faction and im a loner do i have to run all the way back to rookie village?

[unborn halo]

for the exchange? if the trader tha does it is there, ye

[olive spire]

what da hell is this

[eager acorn]

iirc you also can in skadovsk (?)

[unborn halo]

im clear sky i dont know

[eager acorn]

correct me if im wrong on that

[wild patrol]

Some bullshit, don't talk to the evil rock

[lucid valley]

say nothing

[patent mason]

Be grateful you don't have to go to the damn swamp... Fucking clear sky...

[lucid valley]

evil rock

[wild patrol]

Get away from it, your psy-health drains while you're near it

[unborn halo]

The swamp is the best part tho

Its so chill

[olive spire]

i did that and nothing happened, where tf do i go

oh, i get it

[eager acorn]

! wishgranter

[hearty saffron]

@eager acorn Did you think the evil rock could win the game for you?
The evil rock remains evil ||and everything softlocks/crashes you ON PURPOSE.||
Go this way instead: Lost in CNPP?

[patent mason]

Maybe to you, not for me. I have a personal grudge against the swamp ever since 5 minutes into a new save I get attacked by a bloodsucker in the bushes at the north exit into agroprom.

[cyan aspen]

Wait people like the swamp?

[wild patrol]

Man that place is full of nasty shit

[unborn halo]

low key dont remember, isnt there a door somewhere to Ccon?

[wild patrol]

Bloodsuckers, controllers, boars and lurkers jumping at you from the bushes

[alpine burrow]

best faction to do the most content other than loner?

[wild patrol]

How i HATE the swamps after the safety week ends, anything can find you there

[unborn halo]

The TOZ 34 is right there

[wild patrol]

Freedom

[vivid path]

Its more that I don't want it to do that, I just want it to lock the belt artifacts rather than list them as ingredients. This had other unintended side effects too, artifacts listed as ones I could sell....were ones on my own belt (why would I sell an artifact off my own belt??)

[frozen olive]

loner

[wild patrol]

You can do bandit stuff

[unborn halo]

Monolith

[olive spire]

nope

[wild patrol]

And merc stuff as freedom

[cyan aspen]

One time i had to enter swamp up north and immedietly had a controller hiding in the bushes after spending 30 minutes trying to fight him i just went nope and left

[unborn halo]

c:

[olive spire]

there's just a ramp leading me to nowhere

[unborn halo]

doesnt the task tell you?

[remote fossil]

have you done the Last Dawn questline where you meet Scar?

[olive spire]

yeah, i just have to figure out where to go, my bad lol

[wild patrol]

Are you doing living legend?

[unborn halo]

here @olive spire

[wild patrol]

Do what the baldy mfer said

[glass wyvern]

Ive never played STALKER GAMMA before and saw the "do not install the game" Am i just waiting for the next patch to come out or is there some sort of hotfix?

[patent mason]

I got a question about a possible stash location in Prypiat, I think it's in the hotel room where you can see through the window of the roof and see a quest book and a decoder on the shelf but when I try to get in the door won't open, is it in there and what quest do I do to get in or is it somewhere else?

[unborn halo]

Shit broke, now game only on 8th

[keen sedge]

Wait till 0.9.5

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1029824156289732649/1498826893594591272/READ.gif

[wild patrol]

Wait till friday for the next patch

[worthy berry]

Does radar drop expert tools?

[keen sedge]

No

[glass wyvern]

Dope thanks guys!

[wild patrol]

You murdered doctor, didn't you

[remote fossil]

that might be the Hotel Room which you need the Doctor's Key for. for that, you will need to kill the Doctor in Swamps

[patent mason]

Wait you serious...?

[unborn halo]

i also fell for that temptation

[wild patrol]

Oh wait, you didn't kill doctor, that's why you can't enter strelok's crib

[patent mason]

Why the hell...

[wild patrol]

Anyway don't do that questline, it's ASS, so ABSOLUTE SHIT, it's worthless

Mystery of the zone was the worst run i've ever done

[unborn halo]

Hes alone in a cave, alone, hes asking for it im a maniac

[wild patrol]

Just do living legend and the other 2 subsequent ones

[elfin kiln]

talk to the good rock

[wild patrol]

It's a lot less hassle too

MoTZ requires you to basically redo strelok's steps

[patent mason]

So that stash is just a lie then? I literally have to kill my own factions doctor to get in...?

[olive spire]

thank uuu

[wild patrol]

Not your faction doctor, the doctor, the guy in the swamps

[west swift]

im actually also at the hotel room 26 part (cant get in but im trying to get in to get the documents). i only wanted to get in because i thought it would have the expert tools but finally after many hours got one elsewhere

[wild patrol]

Living in a cave away from everything like some animal

[unborn halo]

thank @eager acorn they are the ones that pulled that

[wild patrol]

Killing him has no consequences after you talk to him for living legend though

[patent mason]

Ohhhh, why him?

[wild patrol]

Because he has the items to start MoTZ

[unborn halo]

I will murder

gtg bye

[wild patrol]

The hotel polissya key and some papers

[stoic steeple]

Hello all.

Good night all.

[wild patrol]

@lofty mountain he's calling you

[patent mason]

So wait if I kill him it let's me into that room and gives me the worst questline ever according to you and I get no consequences if I do randomly bust a cap in his forehead?

[wild patrol]

Yeah

The questline is just "go into every lab, grab papers"

[patent mason]

Weird...

[timber flower]

Guys, I’m really craving some Gamma, but I don’t wanna play it unless I can actually keep my progress rolling. Friday could not come sooner

[wild patrol]

Uhhh, about that

[timber flower]

No, don’t say anything

[wild patrol]

0.9.5 will very likely crash all saves previous to it

So... a new game it is for you, buddy

[timber flower]

…well why did you have to go and say it

[wild patrol]

It's better like that, because you get to actually experience the new armor rework

[patent mason]

Wait... I might actually have all the papers already... I kinda looted the entire place whenever I went into a lab and picked up everything not nailed down...

[timber flower]

I suppose…

[stoic steeple]

Isn't this the UNISG questline?

[wild patrol]

Did you give the papers to any faction leader or trader?

[wild patrol]

The unisg questline is even worse than this one, actually lol

[stoic steeple]

Lol. Lmao even.

[patent mason]

Nope, their stuck in my inv. Didn't know what to do with them honestly.

[wild patrol]

At least in motz you get teleported directly to the sarcophagus in the end and has to do a last stand against like, 40 monolith ghosts with great gear

[patent mason]

Well, I doubt it's different from the hell I went through doing the Sarcophagus in the first mainquestline I did...

[wild patrol]

The unisg questline you just get the papers, deliver then, and done, it's over, that's your unisg run

[remote oxide]

Are there any big difference between these two with Gamma?

[ionic skiff]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/888516333568925716/1094730113318408252/ezgif-2-5c8025bf76-1-1.gif

[wild patrol]

It IS a bit different, because they will come in waves at you, it'll feel like an eternity

[patent mason]

That was hell... I was so desperate for ammo I was using the bullets from the enemies themselves...

[wild patrol]

No corridors with cover for you either

[hot owl]

Can you actually place your own campfires? Wherever I go with logs to make one it says surface not sufficient?

[wild patrol]

You'll be in the literal monolith room, on the open

[wild patrol]

Try aiming a bit up and then place the campfire

Some shitass glitch is not letting you put them, just aim up

[stiff shadow]

ive tried numerous times to clear BS but i have no luck, but i have a benelli m4 on my backpack, which is way better than the spas to clear the lab (makes headhots much easier ), should i go back, repair the thing and try with it ?

[stoic steeple]

Surprising they don't at least pit you against the military constantly or some shit.

[wild patrol]

Why don't you try using an assault rifle

[stoic steeple]

Rifle is fine.

[nova folio]

one is compatible with gamma
other crashes your game

[stiff shadow]

is fine for most of the spawns but a couple of them have exos, i use the shotgun with those.

[wild patrol]

Like, for the exos just use AP ammo

The tin cans can't survive more than 6 shots of it on the body

[remote oxide]

Lol which crashes your game so I can avoid it

[hot owl]

that is jank af but it worked thank you

[nova folio]

the one that doesnt have "compatible with gamma" in description

[remote oxide]

Lol 10-4 thx

[wild patrol]

Rule of thumb, always go for the one with the most recent update

[stiff shadow]

my install is from... i believe february 2025 ish, is there something relevant on the new updates ?

[wild patrol]

Hmm, i think just the 0.9.4 update

Wait till 0.9.5 this friday

God, i hope i can update without the servers exploding

[plush karma]

Guys my GPU is at 37% usage cpu 9% for some reason fps is 36. Anyone know what’s going on???

[stiff shadow]

that keeps gamma quirky

[wild patrol]

Try #╰⚡fps-optimisation

[stiff shadow]

xray is a very old engine and benefits from single core performance, thats why x3d cpus have a lot of improvements for gamma

[wild patrol]

0.9.5 will have multithreading from the new modded exes

[stiff shadow]

THE WHAT!?

[plush karma]

Shit that may explain it

[wild patrol]

(Experimental)

[languid thunder]

just to confirm, unable to download current build right? just making sure its not a false positive like it is in the ROM hack world (says dont but actually do)

[stiff shadow]

i was legit going to buy a x3d cpu for gamma only haha

[high basin]

Still do.

[wild patrol]

What?

[plush karma]

This game runs better with my old laptop 🤷

[wild patrol]

Yeah you can't download right now because the launcher shitted itself

[high basin]

The amount of performance you get from x3d chips is insane regardless.

[remote fossil]

correct. do not download at this time. only installs on GOG or Linux are currently working

[stiff shadow]

here in my beautiful mexico we have access to the 3500x3d

[wild patrol]

What is a x3d chip

[languid thunder]

AMD processor

[gleaming robin]

some furry shit I think

[stiff shadow]

chips with a lot of memory on l3 cache

[wild patrol]

I see.

What is l3 cache?

[high basin]

Google.

[languid thunder]

memory pool

[stiff shadow]

the fastest memory the computer has access to for cpu instructions

[wild patrol]

Oh hey, that's pretty interesting

[sand smelt]

just got this off a veteran merc wtf lol that condition

gun itself might be from fwp not sure

[wild patrol]

It is.

[high basin]

Pretty much crazy performance in games,and you can still multitask real well.

[fallow birch]

I wish I had that when I used to play arma 3

[wild patrol]

The mk14 is not in base gamma

[languid thunder]

i have a 9800x3d from a 9700k and its night and day

[stiff shadow]

that thing ran at like 2 fps in my old fx6300 haha i still had a lot of fun with that chip, i wish new chips would be just as tough

[high basin]

Brother, get help.

[short oriole]

the mk14 is from vanilla anomaly and can appear on scripted npcs

[sand smelt]

it's from lass i didn't make it lol

[high basin]

LOL

[stiff shadow]

i still forget ryzen are about to hit 2 digits lol

[wild patrol]

The mk14 in base anomaly? i've never seen it

[plush karma]

I have a i9 10900X which runs like ass

[wild patrol]

Also, you changed your name again, momo?

[high basin]

Yeah intel kinda not hittin' anymore.

[wild patrol]

No consistency smh my head

[languid thunder]

9950x3d is the latest lol just 50 more for 10kx3d

[high basin]

TECHNICALLY, the 9950x3d2 now.

[languid thunder]

after intels horrible response to 13 and 14 gen issues, never going back

[stiff shadow]

while we are still off topic (and waiting for the hammer!) should i ask for a bad loan in the prospect i will be able to pay capital after a rough patch or should i try to work with what i have ?

[plush karma]

I bought this 10gen cheap cpu for my model trainning rig

[high basin]

I mean.... if you can afford a upgrade, and you want to upgrade. Just do it. Dont put yourself in debt for it though.

[wild patrol]

Intel fucking sucks, never buying anything from them again

[lime pawn]

R7 7800x3d gang

[stiff shadow]

oh no is for regular debt, i had a bike accident

[wild patrol]

I used to have their shit on my pc but got so disappointed they pushed me into AMD gpu and CPU

[plush karma]

after checking their battlemage gpus I can confirm intel is ass now

[stiff shadow]

good thing theyll stop puking their crap

[languid thunder]

affirm is your friend

[high basin]

Ahhh.. I say personally wait. Wait for 0.9.5 with the new multi-threading and see if it makes a difference for you.

[plush karma]

Gotta pull out my old laoptop for now I guess

[wild patrol]

You can test the modded MT engine right now

[stiff shadow]

i would love to have affirm here on mexico, i used to collect for them and they even have extensions and promises to pay

[high basin]

Oh yeah, true.

[fallow birch]

Real miss my Intel core 2 dou

[wild patrol]

#1467056699683770379

[high basin]

Test first Serpo. Go go go.

[plush karma]

Does it require new save?

[wild patrol]

Yes.

[plush karma]

Well I can test it anyway

[wild patrol]

But 0.9.5 will brick any saves anyway

Might as well try this now

[high basin]

Im just gonna wait for 0.9.5. I dont have GAMMA at all unfortunately.

[short oriole]

when's gamma chat like come on recoil platinum can't (can) be developed without gamma

[high basin]

Reformatted new pc not long ago... sadge

[stiff shadow]

didnt the last update like, totally crash and burn in flames ?

[wild patrol]

I think i'm having a stroke

[wild patrol]

Just the launcher that shitted itself

[stiff shadow]

ah okay

[wild patrol]

Grok couldn't fix it in time because he has his wagie job to pay the bills

[high basin]

Apparently if you get it on GOG, you can play.

[stiff shadow]

i saw grok posting and i was like "oh, someone did a funny hehe"

[high basin]

But have fun with that... I already own the games. Im not buying them again.

[wild patrol]

What? you don't need to buy stalker games to play gamma

[languid thunder]

is it free on gog

jk

[stiff shadow]

i bought them full price, still happy for it

[wild patrol]

I bought the trilogy like, 6 years ago?

[olive spire]

i killed all of the monolith that the mission requires and i got out of the sarcophagus, but the mission didn't update and it doesn't show any objectives of this mission in the map

[high basin]

On GOG, you have to own Stalker 2 and Pipryat on GOG. I own them on Steam.

[wild patrol]

You have to find your way, look around

[wild patrol]

What the shit, no, you don't need these to install gamma

[stiff shadow]

i bought it because of a dumb green text about someone ruining christmas for his family by pointing an ak to their aunts haha

[high basin]

Yes you do on GOG brother. Promise.

[languid thunder]

from GOG, says its a req on their store page

[stiff shadow]

you only need cop isnt?

[wild patrol]

Man i'm almost 100% sure you don't need ANY stalker games to install this modpack, it's literally built on anomaly

And anomaly is a standalone game, for free too

The guys are gog are smoking crack or something

[languid thunder]

GOG just says its a mod and needs stalker 2 or another game to play

[elfin ravine]

can you still mod gamma through gog?

[high basin]

On GOG right now.

[wheat remnant]

there are two ways to install

• mod it into anomaly (kinda long process for first time)

• skip the hassle and install with gog (but only if you own a stalker game on gog)

[eternal lichen]

You only need One

[fallow birch]

10 fucking dollar for cop wtfff

[stiff shadow]

just buy this

[wild patrol]

What the fuck are the gog guys doing

[stiff shadow]

is the enhanced tho 🤮

[wild patrol]

Just wait till the update comes out i guess

[wheat remnant]

I'm sure GSC forced this deal or something

[high basin]

Validation basically, cause GOG wants a cut.

[elfin ravine]

is there a way to get the originals without the enhanced?

[wild patrol]

It's the first time i see that gog forces you to own a stalker game for you to install gamma through their launcher

[plush karma]

I already bought stalker 2 and all triology on steam

[wild patrol]

Sail the seven seas

[high basin]

Same Birdman. Kinda ass but it is what it is.

[stiff shadow]

is the price of mainstream. we have to keep it clean tho, i would like grok and the team being able to make a living out of this

[fallow birch]

Wait didn't x-ray went open source or was the source code leaked ?

[wild patrol]

The originals are now unobtainable as GSC pulled them out of the stores

[high basin]

Does the GOG version have the MO2 Launcher and everything?

[stiff shadow]

apparently gog still sells them

[wheat remnant]

If you download with GOG it actually gives you the option to install enhanced or classic

[wild patrol]

Well except for gog, bless them

[elfin ravine]

real, i think my dad owns the disk of the first game but not the others

[high basin]

Like can you edit and add mods and shit?

[wild patrol]

Yeah

[fallow birch]

Yes .. gamma can't run without m02

[elfin ravine]

wait thats sick

[stiff shadow]

is the easiest way to install gamma and ofc thats why is pay to win haha

[high basin]

Oh yeah duh. Lol. Was just wondering if it bypassed the MO2 dashboard or something.

[wild patrol]

If you already owned the original trilogy on steam you can still play them, but buying them is impossible there

[sonic kelp]

good morning gammacord

[stiff shadow]

they gave the enhaced for free but demn theyre uuugly

[fallow birch]

No mods are stored in m02 itself .. not in the anomaly folder it would complicate things

[languid thunder]

could always be worse, xbox app has it for full price in their store

[wild patrol]

The enhanced have fixed almost all of the bugs and finally gave multithreading capability...

[stiff shadow]

but looks horrible haha

[wild patrol]

But i refuse to play that AI upscaled shit

[high basin]

Lol true... Ill just wait for 0.9.5 and do it the ol' fashioned way

[stiff shadow]

sidorovich looks like a muppet

[wild patrol]

I have principles, okay?

[fallow birch]

I bought all stalker games on sale for 3 dolla STEAM

[sand smelt]

How do I get artefact fusion volume 2?

[short oriole]

the enhanced edition buy comes with the original trilogy too and they cost barely more

[wheat remnant]

the skyboxes are pretty great I don't see an issue as long as it looks pretty, I know there was some political controversy but it's trivial

[stiff shadow]

oh nice

[wild patrol]

i know, i have them

[short oriole]

you get 3 modern ports that actually play well out of the box and the 3 sovlfvll ones that are objectively worse in every way possible save for the textures

[stiff shadow]

therefore unplayable

[sonic crescent]

Why did the Freedom in Jupiter suddenly aggroed on me? I'm loner and has high relations with them. The Freedom at Army Warehouse are still friendly

[wild patrol]

Sounds like a fair deal to me

[short oriole]

but being objectively worse is ✨part of the charm™✨

[stiff shadow]

exactly

just like infinite combos on sf3

[wild patrol]

Look, they could have just NOT put an horrid, cheap ai upscaling

[languid thunder]

but 4k

[plush karma]

MT is definitely much better 👍

I’m going to unlock my gpu power and test again

[wild patrol]

Remember to give mr.demonized a greek kiss for his hard work

[eager acorn]

maybe theres a mod to replace them with og ones lmao

[short oriole]

it's crazy that textures being upscaled is the dealbreaker when the tradeoff is that you can actually play the game without getting like 300 different community patches hosted on web 1.0 style pages

[wild patrol]

Oh i'd love to find these pages actually

Nowadays every stinky bastard wants me to join their fucking discord server

[stiff shadow]

i can still play it out of the box, it just crashed a couple times. fallout 4 was much more unstable

[short oriole]

and it's crazier that upscaled textures is a dealbreaker solely if done by a corpo but not when it's done for a texture mod, then it's nintendo hire this man

[woeful pecan]

Quick question chat
Do artifacts like Miser's Skull deteriorate over time? I don't remember what causes them to degrade 👁️
Just found my first ever artifact naturally so

[stiff shadow]

NUFF SAID!!

[wild patrol]

I think you're going a bit far with that hyperbole, buddy

[eager acorn]

if its labeled as a perk artifact it degrades

[viral raven]

Smooch for demonized

[wild patrol]

yeah perkifacts degrade over time if they're on your belt

[woeful pecan]

Gotcha, ty

[wild patrol]

You can disable that though

Except for the phantom star, that one will degrade regardless

[stiff shadow]

welp im gonna try clear bs for the 29th time, im too old for this haha

[short oriole]

phantom star degrades only when slotted but has a really short runtime

lucifer is the only one that degrades while in the backpack

[stiff shadow]

but is nice cause this game made me destroy my friends on halo

[wild patrol]

About 1:30 second of invisibility i believe

[woeful pecan]

Hmmmm
Might because like
I'm gonna either always keep it off my belt and go through the hassle of equipping it every time I need it, or just turn off the degrading

[eager acorn]

except the gta trilogy imo
that shit was actual ass

[wild patrol]

Yeah, basically

[viral raven]

Yes

[short oriole]

reread the message

[woeful pecan]

Do you know where it is in settings?

[eager acorn]

you can repair the perkifacts with other perkifacts

[wild patrol]

Nah, i haven't played gamma in a month, forgor already

[stiff shadow]

i should take one of those, disable the BS and then take my sweet time killling the monos

[wild patrol]

Try looking around in MCM, you'll definitely find the right file

[void kettle]

wait is gamma dead?

[stiff shadow]

like every three weeks

[wild patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

[woeful pecan]

Yes Gamma is cancelled it's not coming back sorry

[void kettle]

i came here cause the update isnt working and now i see i shouldnt update it 🙁

[viral raven]

Hmm, spawns are static though. You really can't do it?

[void kettle]

wth man

[stiff shadow]

im getting old ig. last time it just took me three attempts. it wasnt on hardcore tho

[wild patrol]

brain peepeepoopoo is a matter of coming prepared (bringing a bunch of ammo) and getting used to it (doing it constantly because i do invictus runs)

[woeful pecan]

Hmm...Something isn't right here.
All of my guns have a low FOV now, huh

[void kettle]

does anomaly work still?

[wild patrol]

Yeah, fatass scope on the m4 protector

[viral raven]

If you kill them with one bullet others won't react. So you can do quite a bit of it without them shooting back

[wild patrol]

Do you have gamma already installed?

[plush karma]

I can finally play at native 4K

[void kettle]

yeah but i cant play it for some reason

[wild patrol]

You do know this game doesn't require an internet connection to work, right?

[plush karma]

It’s just that my gpu is like a chopper

[stiff shadow]

fr?

[viral raven]

https://youtu.be/LlQDn7IlB8k

[wild patrol]

Or you can mag dump every one that appears so quickly they won't have time to shoot you

At least that's what i do so i don't waste time

The aek-971 is one of the best guns to take there because of it's ungodly high RPM and reloading speed

[stiff shadow]

T_T

[viral raven]

You don't waste time by doing this

you can do it with 8 mins left

[stiff shadow]

2!

[void kettle]

when i try to play it just lanches anomaly not gamma :(#

[wild patrol]

What gun is that

[wild patrol]

What exactly are you doing?

[woeful pecan]

Isn't that the AUG ?

[viral raven]

mdr

[wild patrol]

Oh it's the uhh, mdr

[woeful pecan]

Aw man
Close enough

[void kettle]

i open the gamma launcher, i press run on the modloader and it launches me into anomaly instead of gamma

[wild patrol]

But using a whole fuckin' x51 to clear bs is overkill

[wild patrol]

You're launching through mo2, right?

Do not launch the gamma updater, launch mo2 instead of it

[stiff shadow]

threeee

[void kettle]

ill change to launch in anomaly dx11

nope still launches normal anomaly

[wild patrol]

How many mods do you have active

[void kettle]

i havent changed any thing but lemme check

[wild patrol]

Send me a screencap of your mo2 screen actually

[wild patrol]

change your anomaly to dx11 normal

[patent mason]

How do you do the anomalous activity again? It's been a minute...

[wild patrol]

Then press run again, and send me what appears when the program launches

[void kettle]

that did nothing i was gonna change to dx11 av to text

[fallow birch]

Bruh clear ur shader cache 😭

[wild patrol]

Put the anomaly detector on your hand, approach the quest mark and stay there until the meter fills

[sand smelt]

Go to place, hold scanner in area. Walk back to giver.

[stiff shadow]

foour

made it pretty far tho

[wild patrol]

Have you considered using morphine

Or bombs, monolith hate them

[sand smelt]

Cocaine should just be more OP and give damage resist ngl

[void kettle]

@wild patrol

[patent mason]

Is it supposed to fill quickly or does it take a long time to start actually doing something...

[wild patrol]

The hell, this is weird

[void kettle]

normal anomaly in dx11

[thorn magnet]

why tf are there people in the installation support vc?

[patent mason]

I always avoid these man, I remember why now...

[void kettle]

who knows man

[wild patrol]

takes a bit but shouldn't be long

Are you holding the detector IN YOUR HAND?

[thorn magnet]

yeah that's a fair point, probably shouldn't have even asked tbh

[wild patrol]

Make sure you're right at the quest marker too

[stiff shadow]

fiveeee

this one was fun, plenty of hip firing

[void kettle]

is this the right launcher like im not crazy right?

[patent mason]

Well I got it out, I'm standing here in the marker. Do I keep leaving the marker and entering until it starts doing something?

[fresh shale]

do medication buffs stack? or do they override each other?

[sand smelt]

What are you doing lol

[wild patrol]

No, open through mo2

[plush karma]

This launcher is not working now

[patent mason]

Cause it's been like 3 minutes now.

[void kettle]

through mod loader???

[thorn magnet]

that things broken af right now apparently

[wild patrol]

Yes, go to the GAMMA folder and open this

[stiff shadow]

siiiiix (cheese mr sava)

[languid forge]

I mean it does say not to install

[void kettle]

ok lets see if that works

[stiff shadow]

bs haha but failing misserably

[void kettle]

NOPE FUCKING ANOMALY AGAIN AHHHHHHHHHHHH

[wild patrol]

Man what armor are you using to die so easily to these mopheads

[wild patrol]

Yeah i have no idea why your game's fucked

[stiff shadow]

im even cheating with multiple pelts lol

[sand smelt]

Oh, I usually do BS like a marine. One frag per room.😅

[void kettle]

🙁 wtf man i was enjoying gamma

[patent mason]

Jesus christ... I figured out the damn problem... It doesn't like you using a detector that isn't the exact one they give you for this quest...

[wild patrol]

try asking @elfin pine , maybe he knows

[void kettle]

i stop playing for a couple months and suddenly i cant play?

[woeful pecan]

Me and the random Freedom member I recruited as a companion when the companion alerts the primary military base (quicksaving to keep him alive rn)

[void kettle]

i hate to be the guy in general asking for help but the support channels are gone

[plush karma]

It seems with the new MT exe the GPU usage is always 100% which is weird

[wild patrol]

It's only fair to harass the moderator when the support channels are down

[stiff shadow]

wow, tapped me twice. thats rude (seven)

[elfin pine]

Or use #🔨modded-gamma-support

[wild patrol]

Haha why's that no locked up?

[void kettle]

...ngl i cdidnt check if it was open

[elfin pine]

normal for multithreading tbh

Rendering of stuff is offloaded from CPU to gpu, because somehow someone thought it was good to push shit like grass render to cpu

[wild patrol]

[elfin pine]

the more free gpu usage you had the better it can work

[wild patrol]

Slav magic at it's finest

[elfin pine]

Similar to lossless scaling or similar

[carmine tide]

is it normal for npcs to call me a filthy jew

[shrewd rune]

Hello. I am still semi new to Gamma, and play through GOG, will the new patch automatically go though on the 9th to GOG, or is it something that requires me to go through the manual method of setting up Gamma (Not GOG)?

[quiet smelt]

Gamma has a love hate relationship built in so if you dont give it enough attention the game wont launch after a while 🫠

[elfin pine]

me when unnecessary comments

[void kettle]

🙁 damnit

[plush karma]

Not sure if nvidia capture has some bug the frame and GPU usage is always 60/100% even after I power limied my GPU which is weird

[wild patrol]

hmm

[stiff shadow]

haha 8 times

[sand smelt]

Happens when they have Mein Kampf in their inventory. Very rare.

[elfin pine]

We don’t know when GOG will update their snapshot but it most likely won’t be immediately

Dunno if them updating means download entire package again or just update files

The manual launcher option will always be there tho and you shouldn’t be forced to update either

[wild patrol]

You should try converting all of your medkits to stimpacks

It's a bit quicker to use them, and they heal you much faster too

[elfin pine]

Users having already installed modpacks?

[wild patrol]

Makes a lot of difference while you're under fire

[elfin pine]

Majority of base support was „help i can’t install”

[eager acorn]

after i past BS i might use AP mod

and increase zcp squad spawns ig

[wild patrol]

Ap mod?

[void kettle]

apparently MO2 should be loading gamma not anomaly as its run profile??? so its not launching the right things

[stiff shadow]

10!

[shrewd rune]

oh right, the stalker gamma launcher is accessible through the GOG gamma page iirc, thanks for the info

[eager acorn]

alife plus

i have 1.0 ver still, idk if ill update it lol

[elfin pine]

How many mods are active in mo2?

[void kettle]

554

[elfin pine]

well then if launched through mo2 it should end up being… gamma

[void kettle]

well its not 🙁 just launches anomaly

[elfin pine]

[unborn sky]

guys why can't i install right now, why did grok say do not install?

[void kettle]

games broken apparently

[elfin pine]

moddb increased their security against bots and that caused the launcher to not work reliably

[elfin pine]

And this is based on the main menu being like vanilla anomaly yes?

[unborn sky]

bro i just spent the last few hours troubleshooting a broken system, i have a ridiculous amount of corrupted files on my computer now lololol

[wicked fractal]

#📢announcements

[void kettle]

yes and when i start my character making its all anomaly

[calm jackal]

It uses the anomaly launcher but it is gamma.

[elfin pine]

hmm odd

[void kettle]

yeah but the game itself is anomaly

[elfin pine]

dunno why that might be

[void kettle]

not gamma

[stiff shadow]

i should have switched to ap sooner, they just die in like 2 shots haha . (eleveeen)

[calm jackal]

We're saving you from the fate of playing gamma

[woeful pecan]

Dismantled like a lego character death

[stiff shadow]

we are my stubs yo

[unborn sky]

real strelok holy moly

[woeful pecan]

I got Miser's Skull so I basically got some studs from him ❤️

[void kettle]

i did a file verify and its saying failed??? do i need to reinstall anomaly?

[wild patrol]

Commander is a master of yoga, so he tends to do that

[stiff shadow]

thireteen

[unborn sky]

i had it on my old computer but now im getting it on my new pc because stalker 2 isn't very fun

[void kettle]

fuck it guess ill just play anomaly

i hope its as good as gamma

[woeful pecan]

Rookie Commander
This is just like that youtube short, with private Major Major Major

[elfin pine]

!verify

[hearty saffron]

@void kettle YOU'RE NOT PLAYING ANOMALY VANILLA. THIS IS A MOD PACK, REMEMBER?
Don't verify stuff with the Anomaly Launcher, you're using Mod Organizer 2 to launch the game and to manage the mods used in GAMMA.
The error you'll get is harmless and doesn't mean anything, that's not the problem you have with your game.

[stiff shadow]

fourteeen., pretty bs haha i was clearing with nades and some dude poked out

[void kettle]

FUCK

[pearl current]

now, out of curiosity, is there such thing as multiplayer gamma?

[icy token]

Anyone have a clue?

[elfin pine]

No

[wicked fractal]

!mp

[hearty saffron]

@pearl current
For information related to multiplayer, read this: #╭📖faq message

[pearl current]

i am just imagining, being in limansk, fighting a squad at that bridge

[stiff shadow]

rude. 15

[dark scarab]

Где искать инструменты, в тайниках по гайдам из инета уже второй реальный день найти не могу, ни в желтых ни в белых, ни на одной локе будь то на севере или юге. Смог обменять у повара на янтаре, но бегать по всей зоне и искать 20 стопок водки для улучшения инструментов до тонкой работы и калибровки какое-то такое себе занятие, даже броник не надеть нормальный, все рваное

[stiff shadow]

limansk is fun, too bad is all full of sin. good thing hp ammo is cheap

[elfin pine]

Sin have a 70% damage reduction, using AP is a resource waste

Use FMJ or in some cases HP

They usually don’t wear much armor but they might

[wicked fractal]

hp works surprisingly well on Sin

[pearl current]

ok, good to know

[elfin pine]

FMJ can break armor quicker than HP

[elfin pine]

yes, because most wear leather jackets

[eager acorn]

damn you realistic water
burning my gamba

[pearl current]

irl does hollow point actually do that much more dmg ?

[stiff shadow]

ah shit is stipped counting. 17 i geuss

[elfin pine]

google ig

Ballistics in gamma aren’t meant to be matching irl stuff

realism isn’t at the front focus in any regard

[eager acorn]

is TAA also heavy

[elfin pine]

Yeh it can impact performance a bit

[urban ravine]

At this point I’ve lost faith that ur even trying. I think you enjoy seeing the # go up

[wicked fractal]

hollow is meant to deal more flesh damage irl

[eager acorn]

alr ill uninstall it and measure again

[fossil nest]

I mean "damage" isn't really a thing irl like in games, but it expands really well in soft tissue, so you'll feel more force

[eager acorn]

thing is fps now is mostly stable
just the heat is getting more hot

[wicked fractal]

it does leave a more jagged wound, which technically would be more "damage" to the target

[mossy yew]

glass buckshot

[stiff shadow]

god realm is reserved only to the faithfull

[wicked fractal]

yea that's an automatic war crime

[proper marten]

when 9.5 drops, do we have to download from scratch?

[mossy yew]

the zones a lawless place what can i say

[wicked fractal]

then might I suggest wire rope slugs

[fossil nest]

yeah. I belive it would leave more of a cavity where it lands since it doesn't go all the way through

[elfin pine]

You’ll be able to update the existing install

[wicked fractal]

that's why it's banned and a war crime

like shotguns / buckshots

[void kettle]

OK APPARENTLY MY ENTIRE FUCKING ANOMALY IS BORKEN

[fossil nest]

luckily stalkers already break the law, so go crazy

[mossy yew]

Borken

[stiff shadow]

okaaay, 18 tries! but bs is clearable with meh armor

[wicked fractal]

here before we get taken down for offtopic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYvBJkNLzGc

[dull tiger]

how much bullet res

[wicked fractal]

true the zone really is for psychos

[eager acorn]

[short oriole]

they should cap resistances at 67 by default

[dull tiger]

that is double the what i had for torso .i didn't have anything for head

[stiff shadow]

yeah but for some reason everybody spawns with ap so my armor rate is negligible haha

[mossy yew]

am i schizo for saying 67 is made by saturn worshippers

yea i am

fucking gonna just have to wipe all my gamma and anomaly files

[stiff shadow]

HIJO DE SU PUTA MADRE ME ASUSTO UN CHINGO EL PERRO DESGRACIADO AAAA LAVERGA YA NO ESTOY PARA ESTAS COSAS

[wicked fractal]

I'm guessing they weren't working

[short oriole]

monolith goons always use ap regardless of rank

[void kettle]

well i just loaded up anomlay and its just black screen

cant interact with anything cant turn on a light nothing, its like everything is broken

[stiff shadow]

haha good thing i f5ed

[short oriole]

and you literally can not gather this information through gameplay alone because it's not conveyed anywhere and the tracers are identical, it's fantastic game design

[wicked fractal]

are you ok oflin ?

[eager acorn]

ARE YALL SEEING THE REACTIONS OR AM I TWEAKING

might just cry honestly i loved gamma XD

[wicked fractal]

dude just wait until the end of the week

[paper arch]

react if you love me, onlin

[void kettle]

its been like this for me for like a month

i just havent wanted to play properly until now

[paper arch]

[stable crown]

I just came to install gamma and I'm so sad

[eager acorn]

drunk oflin

[wicked fractal]

few more days you'll be fine

[vivid pulsar]

I’ve been playing dayz to cope it’s not the same

[void kettle]

DAY Z SUCKS

[mossy yew]

theres dayz stalker servers

[vivid pulsar]

It does

[paper arch]

[wicked fractal]

HE REACTED

[mossy yew]

and u can play with friends

[cyan aspen]

Honestly there should be ways to get older versions for when its not possible to update or if you dislike changes that were made

[mossy yew]

archived builds

[paper arch]

I know

[eager acorn]

oflin gpt broke

[mossy yew]

top tier reacting

[wicked fractal]

you can try EFP or just play anomaly

[vivid pulsar]

EFP is a good idea

[eager acorn]

[short oriole]

both recoil gold and the ergonomics mod work on vanilla (modded exes) anomaly as it was the intended platform, those are the only mods you'd ever need to enjoy the game so just go play vanilla anomaly with those two

also the ditman glitch mod (but only once per loading screen because i'm an idiot)

[paper arch]

[vivid pulsar]

If I go down the rabbit hole of modding anomaly Ill end up not playing anomaly for 5 hours just installing mods and making sure they work

[eager acorn]

5 hours is an understatement

[thorn island]

Play an actual good stalker experience. Like a soup mod, misery, or stalcraft

[eager acorn]

zero investment

[short oriole]

implying gamma isn't soup

[brazen plover]

play an actual good S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

like Tarkov

[eager acorn]

gamma is slop

[fallow birch]

If u like soup mods try OP2.2

[cyan aspen]

12/10 bait

[thorn island]

hey jimmy, gimme a gamma with nothin'

[brazen plover]

https://tenor.com/view/polly-o-cheese-nothing-nuttin-pizza-gif-5817644302252767462

anyone have experience with the mod

" PDA REPLACER - BTTR "

btw?

[thorn island]

I don't have gambla installed right now, but yes I do

[brazen plover]

how compatable is it

had any issues w it?
