[shy bloom]

Cuz this isn't spooky at all >_>

[topaz thicket]

Yep, but looks intresting

[shy bloom]

Very much!

[dire needle]

Through balcony, and yes it didn't have an interior until I added it (still rought, need decals etc...)

that's a good question

that would be nice spot for fishing

[warm sierra]

great natural look but fov is abysmal

[acoustic raptor]

the man's playing on ultrawide

it looks more normal on his screen (i think)

[shut nest]

HOW?!

[dire needle]

Exactly on curved it looks normal maybe minus 2-5* degree would be more natural but I don’t see difference on my monitor

[dawn pulsar]

looks kinda like a nerf thing

[candid shore]

it looks like 50 action express to me

[dawn pulsar]

both equally valid assumptions

[austere trail]

cool menu screen

[dire wharf]

uhh where can I find this? I'm interested in the way the buttons are made

[austere trail]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/enhanced-gui
If you only want the menu then in that case you are going to have to customise it through the mo2 installation process

[dire wharf]

oh yeah thanks, I'm gonna rip it apart anyway and put it over this stupid thing I quickly made yesterday, having the text ready without the hassle of doing it myself is bliss #╟🎮stalker-videos📹 message

[potent sun]

Mogged and cheesed. 4 at once. :C

[shy bloom]

Having more companions will help split up the aggro

[potent sun]

I actually left my companion (ol Fanatic) at the Laundromat. He kept getting mogged too, and I need my loot mule

[shy bloom]

Ya need more meat shields!

[south jungle]

[midnight canyon]

hmm

thats not quite right

[rapid tide]

Turn off reshade and try again

[midnight canyon]

oh okie

[rapid tide]

Could be one of the reshade options

[midnight canyon]

cuz i was gonna post blowout pic

but then i realise all my pics since updates has been like this

[rapid tide]

Yea check around in reshade for the culprit, usually its reshade that causes these issues

[midnight canyon]

okie

also merc pathfinding is a lil busted

who did i go report this to?

[rapid tide]

They all angy

Need to update gamma if not yet fully updated to newest development

[midnight canyon]

there were enemies inside, but their pathfinding was f'ed

[rapid tide]

Pretty sure grok fixed these issues in his latest development progress possibly but yea something in 0.91 breaks it

[midnight canyon]

oh it

[clever badger]

Your rain is broken

[queen matrix]

which reshade do u use mate ?

[lavish yoke]

[queen matrix]

thank you for your quick response

[lavish yoke]

Np np

[shy bloom]

Snorks be CAKED UP

[midnight canyon]

why do ppl keep taking pics of caked up ragdolls XD

[lavish yoke]

That was an old screenshot but I had to send it because of the person above lol

[midnight canyon]

[shy bloom]

Be real you'd smash

[midnight canyon]

my heart rests with the great wishgranter who says it will remove my sadness (it labotomised me)

[shy bloom]

LMAO

[midnight canyon]

where were you anyway

[shy bloom]

Miracle Machine lmao

Just switched it off, I think I gotta fight Monolith on my way out

[carmine scaffold]

Nah, that would be brain scorcher, and you'd be fighting them inside

[shy bloom]

Okay good lmao

[carmine scaffold]

Just be careful because monolith uses ap ammo, and if you don't have good protection you'll get clapped really fast

[midnight canyon]

as if its not gamma you're talking abt, we all get clapped

[carmine scaffold]

There are ways to survive

[shy bloom]

i have decent protection, nearly maxxed BR resistance and I got AP ammo of my own

[potent sun]

What additional texture packs are you using, if any?

I wanna spice up my ZONE a bit for my next run

[shy bloom]

I reinstalled 289- Grass Tweaks by Aydin but choosing ONLY the summer trees then I installed these two mods at the end of my load order

And also HBAO mod which replaces the default SSAO with a higher quality ambient occlusion

[potent sun]

Any performance knocks? I've got a pretty strong machine, but Gamma still chunks along at times of heavy AI simulation.

[shy bloom]

Nah not really, might drop 10 frames in Agroprom (I haven't been to Rostok yet tho)

But butter smooth everywhere else

[potent sun]

(like Jupiter. That place can really crunch in the station)

Right on! I've got a few more days at least with this run, but I'll give it a shot for my Merc playthrough.

[shy bloom]

Go for it 😄

[midnight canyon]

is that a USAS-12 i see in that man's hands?

[wheat goblet]

What graphic pack are you using? This looks amazing

[midnight canyon]

bro, who u trying to meet?

[bleak cave]

GTR_optimized for textures

ZONE Reality reshade settings + RTGI. RRGI is costing on GPU and its payed but i can share it with whomever wants it for free

[verbal sundial]

Dude I think there is some stalker in your Fortnite

[astral veldt]

My workshop at the Bar's entrance corner

[bleak cave]

How did u place guns

[verbal sundial]

New placeable furniture

There are gun racks now

[astral veldt]

Hideout furniture addon

I think they added new furniture in the latest 0.91 update

[bleak cave]

amazing

[astral veldt]

You can craft at the workshop or buy from traders

[verbal sundial]

Also: On my way to mod in a chance for NPC's to steal easily accessible guns in the gun racks as they pass by

[astral veldt]

Nooooo lol

[bleak cave]

no thanks lol

Small PPistol

[cosmic skiff]

[indigo thicket]

Nice Hole.

[astral veldt]

Is that the mg42 from the ultimate gun pack?

[bleak cave]

its from ultimate gun pack and i think u are right

i was using debug mod to test FPS and stuff with infinite ammo

[astral veldt]

Animations looks good

[bleak cave]

what grass mod is that

[shy bloom]

How many frames you getting? Looks like you got all the graphics cranked to the max AND you're playing super mega wide screen mode 😮

[pliant shore]

That was the last screenshot I took before the game crashed

Chimera bad

Chimera dead:

And from here on out i changed the color grading to default

Get the meme ready

[dense canopy]

4 fps 🤨

[upbeat fulcrum]

3 fps

No waaay

[upbeat fulcrum]

Thats imposible xd

[pliant shore]

Broke this guy's arm

[pliant shore]

You should see it at 0 or 1 fps

[rapid tide]

Does 4 fps feel bad or does it actually feel any different

[pliant shore]

[rapid tide]

Can you play all throughout with just four fps? That is a feat

[pliant shore]

It feels good enough to play aside from some delay on inputs at times due to lag and stutters, 4 to 5 fps is the max I get on average, but it fluctuated between 2-3fps to 4-5fps a lot

[carmine scaffold]

Wtf

[dense canopy]

god.....

[rapid tide]

I see

Shit you got more willpower than any of us

[carmine scaffold]

How... like genuinely how are you able to play this game on that low of frames

I mean, how do you go against a chimera?

[rapid tide]

My guess it also runs at 5 fps towards you and we can see 5 fps easily

[pliant shore]

If it didn't run at all, I'd not play it, if it runs, I adapt

[pliant shore]

Except when i aim and shoot he's no longer there

[rapid tide]

[pliant shore]

I literally have to predict every AI movement to counter it effectively, what mutants specially will do

Lead shots ahead of the mutants and NPCs and use every tactic I can to get an upper hand

[rapid tide]

In grand scheme of things you are becoming a predicting king

Would be great at tarkov xd

[pliant shore]

Probably XD

If it ran I play Tarkov on offline mode

But i gotta admit, so far nothing beats Stalker for me

[pliant shore]

Watch the animations carefully and anticipate my moves to compensate input lag, jumping to the sides and aiming for the head

[pliant shore]

Funnily enough, it's actually faster than you'd think, aside from lag at times, 4 to 5 fps is those 4 to 5 fps just going by really fast

Guess you could say I'm playing....STAL-FRAMES

[carmine scaffold]

jeez

[pliant shore]

Now here's a thing...Stalker Gamma is one of the best looking games I've played that also runs semi well in my rotten potato

Like I've played The Walking Dead by Telltale, it stuttered so hard it crashed, played Dying Light, lagged so much Parkour was broken, played State Of Decay 2, it somehow ran smoothly with occasional crashing

[elfin garnet]

damn... should we start a gofundme or something? feels really bad man

[pliant shore]

If ya want, it'd help me pay for college easier XD, but i am saving up for a PC currently

[elfin garnet]

I know the struggle, so why not help a fellow stalker ^^ because, cmon... 4 fps... wtf?

[pliant shore]

Best part is seeing it drop to 0 sometimes

But if you want i won't stop you, but it's not necessarily needed.....for now at least

[elfin garnet]

I'd imagine if you set it up yourself, there would be less possible future complications. Alternatively there's PayPal, but I don't think a single small double-digit amount would be of much help. On the other hand I don't even know, if anyone else would be willing to help at all...

[pliant shore]

The budget I'm going for it's a 2K pc i can upgrade with time, currently I have half of it saved up, 1 or 2 more months and I'm getting the upgrade

[elfin garnet]

hopefully not one of those pre-built... things... 😅

[pliant shore]

Not in my life time, my dad bought that crap and it's what i currently use, but i have a friend who's going to help me build this new PC

[elfin garnet]

Good 🙂 What specs are you going for?

[pliant shore]

If it can run Stalker 2 at max settings that's my goal XD

Or even Starfield for that matter

[elfin garnet]

Or a heavily modded Gamma 😛

re blurry edge of screen. Same when no Gas mask 🙂.

That must be some deliberate thing ...

edit: fixed via #╭📖faq message

anyone know a fix for these little black pixels everywhere its not sss

https://gyazo.com/7faf94e7a399808a8c32468ad9e037df

[orchid kestrel]

Hmm any advice how to disable? I did not change shader or anything invasive. Followed the performance guide on discord to a large extent.

[vernal shuttle]

Been a while since I touched Anomaly but the SSS settings are located in the MCM menu

It's related to DOF so you'll have to mess around with some sliders there to reduce it

[orchid kestrel]

Okay thank you I will take a look there :). Btw, cool 🐢

UGP?

[shy bloom]

Any body know a mod a that only changes sky box textures to something higher res?

While this looks good, I want the clouds to look better 😄

[bleak cave]

you can find any mod that u like that changes anything and delete other files

after u install it

skies redux is installed in the game already

looks for 2k or 4k ones

[bleak cave]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/2k-upscaled-skyboxes-almost-definitive-edtion

1k vs 2k comparison

https://imgsli.com/ODMxNDk

[shy bloom]

Ehh the 2k looks a little too sharp, I was hoping for something inbetween like a 1.5k skybox just to bring out the details more without being too sharp, any suggestions?

[sour knot]

skies redux is 1k and some being 2k. that is default. upscaled has all 2k. there is no other skybox mods ive seen.

[shy bloom]

and is skies redux JUST the skybox textures?

[sour knot]

skies redux is what we have normally

yeh

oh and hippos has sky textures in there ithink too

maybe. i dunno

[sour knot]

but yes thats just sky only. look at the folder

[shy bloom]

Ahh okies, gonna give the upscaled a go

Is it as simple as downloading, enabling and putting it at the end of my mod list?

[sour knot]

its all we got unfortunately. let me know if you see anything else haha

[sour knot]

yeh

[shy bloom]

Swaggerino bambino

[sour knot]

im not 100% sure on disabling skies redux but i did when i activated 2k

[sour knot]

oh yeh Frost apparently has 4k skyboxes but i couldnt even find the skybox textures in his pack. might ask him today.

[shy bloom]

I don't want 4K, the 2K will do just fine

[sour knot]

his screens looks crispy asfk sometimes tho

[shy bloom]

Ehh, on a few of them yeah they did look a little too crispy in some places but I don't tend to just stare at the sky haha

[sour knot]

these are a couple of the 2k ones

[sour knot]

those are 4k images tho. doesnt usually be that sharp

This exists in GAMMA?

[compact wedge]

not gamma by default, been testing with GTR and maps from anthology

[shell saddle]

damn, you made the game from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. to Resident Evil 4 kekw

can I test it out?

[compact wedge]

no

[shell saddle]

ohh ok

Not sure why you wouldn't want to share the preset unless it is actually fake...

[shy bloom]

I'm using the games SMAA set to High, the ONLY thing that eats my fps (I'm capped at 64) is lots of NPCs

[wooden ermine]

and just a few tweaks of the enhanced shaders config later - totally different vibe. so much fun to fuck around with that

[carmine scaffold]

Really good, mind sharing it? @wooden ermine

[wooden ermine]

no problem
cfg_load bonezone

[carmine scaffold]

thank you

Actually wait, isn't what you doing a reshade preset?

[wooden ermine]

nope, just shader edits

i dont use reshade personally

[carmine scaffold]

Oh where that would be in the config?

[wooden ermine]

so you can edit colour power parameters in any cfg file placed in your appdata folder.
if you take the one i have posted here, put it in app data, and type cfg_load bonezone into the console, it'll load all those changes in that file

you can play around with them while the game is open, edit them, save the file and reload it to see the changes without restarting the game too

basically they work like
shader_param_ (R, G, B, Power)

[carmine scaffold]

Interesting, and if I want to stop using the file?

[wooden ermine]

default for gamma is cfg_load atmos

[carmine scaffold]

[wooden ermine]

thatll take you back to square one

its the biggest rabbit hole bro, so easy to waste hours just tweaking it into insanity lmao

[carmine scaffold]

Much appreciated. I'll play with it and see what kind of image I get

Besides I also use reshade

[wooden ermine]

have fun

[carmine scaffold]

So your file is basically a more customized atmos

[wooden ermine]

yeah mine is cooler in tone, slightly greenish hues in the shadows. it was originally made for winter presets

[carmine scaffold]

Interesting

Thanks again, will check tomorrow!

[hoary valley]

game looks amazing what u using for graphics anything differnt also whats ur grass settings

Making various texture packs, I have fleshed out eh entire Summer to Autumn to Winter seasons and their transitions. I'll try to get a collection of screenshots together after work tonight. Using Grim Reshade with them all.

[thin geode]

👀

[pine pewter]

@white orchid could you please share your graphics settings
I really like your Autumn_new reshade your shared before with photorealistic approach, the lightning is great!
But unfortunately my 3090 struggling with it in 4k:))

maybe I need some optimisation
I even turned off MXAO effects (I have HBAO addon) but still impossible to reach 60 fps

[delicate venture]

Play in 1080, upscale to 4k

Lossless Scaling on steam is great for this

[vernal gale]

I have a question
How can I change grass and trees to something better. Like winter or summer

[vernal shuttle]

That last one is nice

Tasteful weapon dof

Or a better autumn

аддон какой-то на сюжетку Сахарова? или он встроен куда-то?

[strange finch]

I swear some people either have really bad monitors or they love having extremely low gamma and high contrast resulting in a crushed image that is way too dark for the scene. Noticing this while browsing through here on occasion.

[charred aspen]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/promzone-level

[rapid tide]

could be the latter I think

I know my monitor is like what from 2016

but yea some images do get crushed

[strange finch]

What I end up seeing on about 30% of screenshots here

[vernal shuttle]

Crushed blacks because of muh HDR

[strange finch]

HDR go Brrrr

[rapid tide]

is it cause of hdr then?

or cause of the monitor

[vernal shuttle]

I doubt it

[strange finch]

I think people just stack lots of reshade effects that alter black levels/contrast/gamma when they only need 1-2 max

resulting in crushed blacks on good moniters but they are doing this to compensate for their bad monitors or monitor settings

[delicate venture]

Maybe some people just like it 🤷🏻

[vernal shuttle]

I only use like two effects for color grading at most

A lot of these presets just stack "HDR" shaders upon "HDR" shaders to the point whites are blown out and blacks are crushed beyond belief

[strange finch]

I think it's just bad monitor/monitor settings. I would know because I had shit monitor settings back when I played tarkov I had to compensate those settings with terrible color fx settings

[vernal shuttle]

I saw one that was like
HDR
HDR
Tonemap
Contrast/Brightness
Lightroom

Like holy shit

[strange finch]

LMAO

[vernal shuttle]

There's no need for that much at all

[strange finch]

I think taking the time to calibrate your monitor to the best of your ability goes a long way. Even if it's a tn panel you can still make it a bit better

but TN panels do suck though

I also know this because my secondary monitor is a tn panel and those crushed black images are actually good on my tn panel monitor

but absolutely terrible on my main "good" monitor

[rapid tide]

like for me all I use on this is just some regrade colors

[vernal shuttle]

I've seen those bodycam reshade presets that stack THREE barrel distortion effects on top of each other

[strange finch]

I'll be like oh this screenshot is good let me open in browser and move it over to my main monitor....oh nvm it's not as good as I thought

[rapid tide]

oh yea the bodycam ones

[strange finch]

lol

[vernal shuttle]

Many of those also have like 20 fucking shaders running at once as well

[strange finch]

This is fine I dont see any noticeable black crush

[rapid tide]

didn't know screenshots looked different on monitors

or like other monitors

[strange finch]

Monitors are just as important as a gpu upgrade

you don't do it as often ofcourse but it goes a long way

[rapid tide]

yea

I need a better monitor

mine got some dead pixels on it

[strange finch]

Good thing good ips monitors are cheap nowadays

You can spend $200ish for a nice 1440p ips panel

U.S prices ofcourse

[rapid tide]

yea something I need is that

[strange finch]

not sure how it is in other places

[rapid tide]

I'd say 200 is the ball park for usd yea

I got this only singular dead pixel right between my screen but luckily its just one

[strange finch]

Without putting a link here look at the gigabyte m27q 27" on amazon currently for $270

[vernal gale]

Ok can I send 3 shots and you tell me what should I change?

[strange finch]

sure

[vernal shuttle]

Time to buy a reference monitor to color grade my stalker screenshots

[strange finch]

Yeah okay those are good on my TN panel "bad" monitor

but super contasted and deep fried on my main monitor

[vernal shuttle]

Oh god it's so crushed

[strange finch]

Yup

especially the image with the pistol

[vernal shuttle]

Oh NO THR ONE WITH THE PISTOL IS SO BAD

[strange finch]

Sorry @vernal gale not trying to be mean

What is the reshade you are running

and whats your gamma setting?

ingame

when showcasing the reshade, show me the effects

[dense grotto]

I should go back to shooting stalker CoP someday.... got a few shots left in stock

[strange finch]

This is nice and artistic

[vernal shuttle]

Mm

Flare

[strange finch]

See its dark but i can still make out details and the darkness is used for a more artistic touch

[vernal shuttle]

I've been trying so hard to get these looking flares in anomaly

[strange finch]

darkness is only bad when black crush

[strange finch]

Can't you import the textures?

[vernal shuttle]

Yeah but the sun flare in anomaly is limited to only one sprite

It's not a chain of sprites like in that image

[dense grotto]

indeed.. I really don't understand how people get to crushed blacks

[rapid tide]

when you say crushed

does that mean it just gets dark

[dense grotto]

Very, very dark

[rapid tide]

I see

[vernal shuttle]

Like 0, 0, 0

Void dark

[dense grotto]

Makes stuff that should normally be highlighted, unusually dark

[strange finch]

Should make a "days without black crush" meme like the emission meme post

[nocturne horizon]

Lmao

[vernal gale]

this is my reshade at gamma 9 i don't remember in game settings sorry

I just try fix my faults

Ik it's too dark

[nocturne horizon]

I also noticed that my reshade is pretty much no reshade gamma lol

[vernal gale]

Or too much bright

[vernal shuttle]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920013807479296042/1158390239346299023/image.png?ex=651c127a&is=651ac0fa&hm=3f12ba6f2665189bb48a1dcf2b8b1ae9329fc30bf87565c0a77a7aa34e924a08&

God I hate it when discord crops this into 16:9

[vernal gale]

So please tell me what should I lower?
HDR?

[strange finch]

Give us a sec to look at it

but also a gamma of 0.9 is a bit low current atmos uses a gamma of 1.05 but the upcoming release uses a gamma of 0.95 or 0.97 depending on the ltx file that is loaded. But with gamma that is lower I had to compensate with higher hemi and amb and lumscale values It's all a delicate balance.

But I'll take a look at gamma 0.9 and the reshade together

[shy bloom]

This needs to be a loading screen picture!

[warm sierra]

too many people for some reason like too high contrast

[vernal shuttle]

Personal preferences or as said, just compensating for bad monitor

Or even the monitor itself is shit

[nocturne horizon]

I feel that

[carmine scaffold]

@strange finch what do you think of the ones I posted earlier?

[strange finch]

Sorry guys my internet died

lol

[strange finch]

Your screens are good no black crush at all

[carmine scaffold]

Okay thank you. I have a BenQ 24 inch monitor with a IPS panel but I never properly tweaked it's settings

For me colors are fine though

[shy bloom]

Most monitors you shouldn't need to tweak unless you are doing very specific things like colour grading or LUTs thankfully, I haven't needed to tweak any settings on my Samsung curved monitor (forgot its model name lol)

[clever badger]

Mmm flares 😌 share your sun.ltx

[rapid tide]

is the sun.ltx what makes it flare?

[strange finch]

From COP

they said that in anomaly you can't stack flares in the same way as cop?

[strange finch]

The only reason I tell people to tweak because I see people here still using dx 9 dx 10 renderers which makes me think their pc is old and if their pc is old then their monitor is also old

[woeful sigil]

Встроен в new level 0.5

[uncut atlas]

This looks crazy good. Can we get the preset, pls?

[clever badger]

Why not. I’ll try. Look at this flares https://youtu.be/5ul-K7KyeZg?si=uyl5KLSMxk608hwi

[strange finch]

Not sure but those are also the flares I use for atmos

they look good

[clever badger]

No it’s from asr. It’s not the same

[strange finch]

Okay so filmictonemap cancels out filmic pass and vice versa with your settings so they are not needed

These are your settings

[quaint plover]

how do I get to this stash in wild ter?

[strange finch]

But most of your issues are from adaptive tonemapper

your settings are weird for tonemapper

[strange finch]

They look almost the same

as far as the flare and not the sun itself

[vernal gale]

I know it was my first time doing this without enb

Cause I try make something looks like enb

[vernal gale]

Also can you please explain this shader a little

Sorry for taking your time

[clever badger]

No Hippo, it’s different. Maybe texture is same but settings in sun.ltx is different.

[shy bloom]

Yeah that's fair, some monitors can be really sketchy with the colours especially if the light is fading in them

[strange finch]

Oh Im sure the settings are different

Im talking about the texture

the texture is the same

[clever badger]

Yeah, textures is the same, only I was changed is a main sun texture. Sunset and sunrise textures

[white orchid]

are my blacks 'crushed'?

[strange finch]

Capa you know damn well Im not talking about you

Lol you're screens are perfect as always

[white orchid]

anything you would change?
