[fallow cairn]

"169 - Body Dots"

[abstract venture]

Will let you know after work, I can't remember top of my head 🤣

[tepid jetty]

do you guys use Reshade on top of the SSS and isn't there a built in LUT system too? Don't they overlap or anything?

[abstract venture]

Yeah I have reshade running on top

[sleek raft]

its upgraded PDA, first upgrade shows bodies of enemies you killed, 3rd grade shows all dead bodies

[tepid jetty]

Thanks for letting me know man

[urban cobalt]

Amazing how modding GAMMA looks close enough to Stalker 2 at the environment level.

[dull orbit]

I havent updated this mod in like 2 years, when tf did it start looking this good

looks better than Stalker 2 💀

[frail cargo]

How do you guys turn off HUD (even the health bar)? Num Enter only removes minimap and status icons

[fallow cairn]

This is like the Peter Griffin death pose but for Stalker

[dark brook]

No reshade is the the best reshade

[clear oak]

do you only have project inverno ? i wonder if they are some other mods that enhance the experience a winter themed zone

[clever badger]

Yes, it's project inverno, idk if there is something else

[clear oak]

okay because the snow looked a little too good for me. The snow is the only complaint i have about inferno

[lost fable]

the snow in that pic is from inverno

is it normal that there is no shadow casted by the moon ? is their a way to turn that ON or something ?

[junior silo]

Is there an easy way to max out my graphics? Like some mods that will enhance it?

[patent coyote]

My best advice is to check the #╟🎑reshades channel. There are some 'full suite' packages in there. Just be sure to read carefully.

[proven night]

The "Even More Hidout Furniture" mod is such a godsend. Should have added it sooner!

[clever kindle]

[supple forum]

What do you think about the refillable canteens at sinks mod? I think it's kind of ridiculous, like your in the Zone for crying out loud. Any and all food and drink is smuggled in. And where's that plumbing come from. For me personally, I don't like it. Feel like I'm getting cancer just from looking at it.

Hi, a noob question. Did you install those via MO? (Minus the reshade)

[dire needle]

Yes

[eager owl]

Zulu's old place makes for a pretty decent base, I feel.

[forest dune]

Awesome, thanks.

And do you happen to know where the mod "Ccons grass overhaul" is? Searching is fruitless, even if I tried to compensate for a potential typo

[dire needle]

Never heard about that ccon thing I only know this one #1279805292472832101 message

[patent coyote]

Wait you have Ccons and Ayidn's at the same time? I thought this was not possible. Then again, idk much about tinking with files.

[cyan mason]

ccon doesnt change all grass in the game yet from what im aware, running aydins is just making sure theres no vanilla grass

ccon is just overwriting anything that aydins does if it has the file, and letting aydin fill in the rest

[patent coyote]

Oh sick ok! So you are just giving CCons priority and haven't been running into any issues with the game trying to use both in one map?

[cyan mason]

well im not currently doing it but i did it on stalker custom and here and it was sweet yeah

this grass and trees mod is so good

did you install pancerides grass? or did it come by default

[haughty bough]

Yeah I installed that one, I like it very much

[fossil lily]

ah sweet i think gamma still has aydins as default since you can reinstall and pick any season quickly

[spark fractal]

Do you have a link to the grass mod?

[sly raven]

Damn, these two screenshots look really nice

what reshade are you running?

i need my gamma to look like this :D

[fossil lily]

the reshade is actually just anti aliasing

bloom comes from sss22 and everything else is atmos

well not everything but lut and weather wise

[sly raven]

ah ok I'll have to look into it then

haven't played gamma in a while, reinstalled yesterday for the update, and my game just isn't cutting it looks wise

and reshade was the big thing last time i played

either way, fantastic screenshots

[fossil lily]

Thank you

fwiw it’s pretty much like higher res shadow map, grass setting turned up to c consciousness grass recommended plus ultra grass shadows in SSS

The rain and stuff is just atmospherics which is in gamma

And sss ofc

any changes to shadow maps? any other changes in SSS beside ultra grass shadows?

[hardy rose]

Wow...

[queen matrix]

very nice mate any addons or reshade ?

[rocky tapir]

only these with COAR rtx reshade preset

and all autumn presets , and only map selected in ccgrass trees , and only grass selected in painter of the zone

also my screenshots seem to be darker than it really is idk why

[queen matrix]

are u using aydins grass and trees also ?

[rocky tapir]

Yes I just put these mods i screenshotted at the bottom of load

I Didnt disable anything

[dry vector]

so i dont really want to change how the trees look, but I really want there to be less spots on everything while the trees move around

idrk what the term would be, would anyone know a fix for this?

[fossil lily]

there isnt really besides playing at a higher resolution

even tfaa doesnt fix aydin winter trees

but you can install #1303699338312159232 @dry vector and use these, theyre an upscaled + other things done to them, version of the same trees

thickens the branches to an extent among other stuff which drastically improves aliasing and shimmer

[dry vector]

SHIMMER

thats the word

tysm

i shall try

it's def better, but there is still a fair amount of shimmer ty for the help it looks a lot nicer

[turbid vortex]

who needs stalker 2 anyways

[turbid vortex]

what gpu do you use?

[viscid depot]

early game loadout after ~4 in game days

pretty happy with it

[dark brook]

wait for TAA compat with SSS

[turbid vortex]

DLDSR looks also pretty damn sweet, if you have the gpu headroom of course

[dark brook]

I prefer Lossless scaling

[dry vector]

rtx 2080 super

i usually get around 100fps while traveling and around 80-60 depending on the city/camp

[turbid vortex]

you could give dldsr a try then, considering stalker pretty much always hangs in a cpu limit anyways. That pretty much negates any jaggies/shimmering

[turbid vortex]

I assume this is cpu limited though? (gpu not being used fully)

[dry vector]

yeah

[turbid vortex]

probably wont hurt to try dldsr then. If performance dips when using it, just go back to native res again

[dry vector]

how exactly would i use it o.0

[turbid vortex]

you enable it in your nvidia control panel

sec

[dry vector]

also it looks like i get around 20% cpu utilization and around 60gpu utilization in game

[turbid vortex]

its german, but you can probably follow it anyways

you then select the resolution that appears ingame, higher then your native res

1.78x for 1440p comes out to 3413x1920 then as ingame resolution for example

[dry vector]

holy shit it looks so much better

[turbid vortex]

it really does. and if youre gpu is still not used 99-100%

no reason to not use it really

[dry vector]

gpu is still around 60

[turbid vortex]

did you actually select the higher res in the ingame settings? no gpu use increase at all sounds kinda wrong

[dry vector]

sec

woah okay

went to 2715 x1527 and it's gone to around 80% gpu

[turbid vortex]

yeah that sounds more like its working

should look a lot better, i assume

[dry vector]

oh wait no

96-99 wen i went outside lol

[turbid vortex]

xD

well, so now youre gpu limited then. Up to you to decide if the fps suffice or not now 😛

[dry vector]

fps is fine tbh

still around 60

[turbid vortex]

in any case, it should help alot with the foliage

[dry vector]

yeah it doesn't have much shimmer at all now

still some but its better

[gritty crest]

gorgeous, is that ccon grass? what addons?

[turbid vortex]

yeah, ccon grass and the newest version of SSS in ko-fi early access atm, no additional addons except what GAMMA comes with

[lofty condor]

Is it just me or does Stalker 2 not look good graphically, and the performance is horribad to boot what gives? UE5?

[patent coyote]

After replying I realized this message should be in #╓☢stalker2™-chat-not-gamma-keep-waiting

[lofty condor]

Yeah, i was going to ask there, but figured here was better since its dedicated to graphics more so. Figured in general was more for gameplay talk over visuals.

[patent coyote]

I would still suggest talking about it in the aforementioned channel. Just to avoid any issues.

[fallen inlet]

Ngl, This is better than stalker 2

[tacit cairn]

Vanilla Gamma be doin numbers against me

[patent coyote]

Man your game always look so gorgeous! Are you using a personal reshade? Or? I’d love it if the Zone had this vibe on my install!

Also, are you using update sky textures?

[daring aspen]

Thx mate! Yeah, I use my personal reshade preset.

Skyboxes and weather are Atmospherics (in GAMMA by default)

[patent coyote]

Oh man you dropped the link?! You’re a GOAT! Thank you! 🤘🤘 Last question, I’m assuming you stuck with Aydins? Or is that GotZ?

[daring aspen]

its C-con autumn alternative + Midwinter aurora for grass and GotZ for trees with brich and poplar from Midwinter trees

[patent coyote]

Shit, actually I don’t even know where to drop the .ini 🙃

[patent coyote]

Oh nice, ok! I have Ccon downloaded so I may have to swap back over. Forgot to back up so all my settings got default with the update.

[daring aspen]

I usually drop them in bin folder, so its easer to find it in reshade

all atmos presets are also here

[patent coyote]

Ah yep that’s where they all are! Thank you a million for all the help!

[daring aspen]

last thing, there are probably no NiceGuy shaders in your reshade, so you'll have to reinstall reshade with effects, uncheck all and pick NGLightning and Volumetric Fog if you want the exact same look

[patent coyote]

Noted! Thank you good sir! I do have access already to the NiceGuy shaders within Reshade thankfully, so I should be able to do that no problem. The only thing you mentioned that I am not familiar with is the Midwinter Aurora

[dry vector]

[sinful kite]

Looks insane. What all are you using besides base GAMMA?

[runic vector]

i dont remember honestly usually ccon, rotten life or ato, adega lfo or winter trees for vegetation

[patent coyote]

Man is just getting leg day in! xD

[sinful kite]

I used ADEGA before the update. Whats ADEGA LFO though?

Also any sugguestions on the CCon/Grass settings?

[runic vector]

just the textures/lfo directory from it for the trees. either those, gardener of the zone, midwinter, or reworked vanilla trees are all great

[sinful kite]

Okay dope. I think I've just got Aydins atm set to autumn

[runic vector]

if you like autumn grab the lfo from adega or check out Reworked Vanilla Grass i think @stark smelt had an autumn version cooking

[patent coyote]

Where should I drop ADEGA in the load order with the new update to 0.9.3?

[runic vector]

adega as a whole isn't updated anymore i'd replace it with rotten life or ato. if you still wanna use it just put it higher priority than gamma disabled

[sinful kite]

Okay dope. Using ATO 4 this update and its looking steller so far

Thanks for the help 🫡

[patent coyote]

Would you mind dropping the link for ATO?

[runic vector]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1192574018398715904 for rotten, https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/ato-4 for ato

Any tips on how to reduce ghosting effect when lossless scaling is enabled?

[frank loom]

is there a way to make the trees less pixelated?

[agile crescent]

Forcing aa in your gpu control panel, or using reshade aa settings

ingame smaa is incompatible with shader based scopes

so dont use that

[cyan mason]

try drme tfaa on reshade

[frank loom]

thanks guys ill try those

[random flame]

or try vortmotion.fx

[frank loom]

is that a reshade effect?

[random flame]

yup

https://github.com/vortigern11/vort_Shaders

almost the same effect like tfaa + drme. but i have to say i use it with adaptiv_sharpen @75 to get a good image.

you have to try out what fits you best. every system is different and the impact can be also different on your fps.

I do like frostans reshade alot but its too heavy for me on fps.

so i use my personal light reshade with vort, adaptiv_sharpen and glamary to get the most fps with a great optic.

[sick stump]

Could anyone share some performance-oriented AA settings from the NVIDIA control panel? Or just enable the AA and thats it?

[cyan mason]

Whats your problem? is it more in motion and pixelation of trees, or when your stationary and jagged edges?

[stark smelt]

are those speedtree normal maps or did u make them

that's looking amazing

[sick stump]

Trying to smooth out things like tree branches, they get really pixel-y and ugly lol

[cyan mason]

Best bet is using DRME with TFAA in reshade

its gonna steal some frames, but if you can sacrifice some, its the best way to cope with it

[sick stump]

how intensive in your experience? I could get fps back from following the in game setting guide from faq. I'll work on getting that working, thank you

[cyan mason]

well in my current scene im losing 1 fps..

i swear i was losing more earlier

[dire needle]

speedtree

but still

[cyan mason]

ensure DRME is above TFAA in reshade

[dire needle]

i hope i can somewhat achive similar effect for grass one day

[stark smelt]

bro those look so fucking good

[dire needle]

and they are still decreased

but imo im gonna revert back normals to more angular ones

[stark smelt]

brightest part of lighting is reflecting too much with those yea

[dire needle]

?

ok

[stark smelt]

i mean ain't those really bright spots from the normal map

[dire needle]

my brain is not working

[stark smelt]

i'm on mobile so kinda tough to tell lol

specular + normal + sss magic

[sick stump]

thank you, they look much better. is there a way to change the flicker when i start/stop moving?

[cyan mason]

It's a sharpening tool that helps it, I can't remember the name, it's like immersive something something sharpening

Sorry I'm in bed now so can't remember but if you message me tomorrow I can tell you the exact name

It helps with the transition and keeps everything more balanced

[rocky tapir]

is it a part of SSS ? or how do i enable this

[daring aspen]

its in reshade

[rocky tapir]

cant seem to find it in my reshade 😮

[daring aspen]

reinstall reshade and find it manually in installation menu, its one of NiceGuy's shaders

[clever badger]

sounds good maybe it hides popin

thanks

[rocky tapir]

yep do i need to download the exact same version gamma uses again ? cant seem to find anything to be able to reinstall

[daring aspen]

I use 6.2.0 version. It causes crashes when changing some settings, but I'm fine with it since most of these changes require reopening the game anyway

[honest tiger]

2 version, i more like this

[hardy rose]

Awesome, can you share it or any way to download this?

[rocky tapir]

ty man looks amazing , I just copied your settings for fog and global light and put it into COAX RTX reshade and got this ❤️

[wooden eagle]

How do you pause time and pose him like that?

[night ferry]

I can share the background video and sound, but it's up to you to make it work on your GAMMA. I'm still on 0.9.2 and the left side menu is from UI Rework G.A.M.M.A. Style - Sota mod.

[patent coyote]

Can anyone please tell me if these are in the right order? I asked 3 times in #🔨modded-gamma-support to no avail, hence me asking here.

[dire needle]

no ccon should be under sss

[robust carbon]

Honestly can't tell stalker anomaly and stalker 2 apart 🤌

[patent coyote]

Thank you! Do you know if ATO is in the right spot there?

[dire needle]

yep

all texture mods should overwrite sss

i mean all texture mods that change ground and grass tetures

[patent coyote]

It's odd that Aydin's is above SSS by default but C Cons has to be below it

[dire needle]

aydin is stock grass but fixed

[patent coyote]

Aha!!! That makes so much sense!! Thank you!! 😄 😄

[dire needle]

so it dosen't matter here since sss have bump maps for stock grass

but that lod compatibility should be under sss

probably mistake

but it doesn't matter here since you are using ato that is overwriting that lod combability

[patent coyote]

So should I put LOD and CCons above ATO but Below SSS? Or just leave LOD where it is?

[dire needle]

above ato below sss

ato ccon lod

and rest as it is

[patent coyote]

Precisely what I just set! Thank you so so, so very much for all your help!! 😄 😄 You are awesome!

[mental belfry]

I was told that 2 things i should change before playing was weapon condition and instakill "bullshit" . Well i dont know what that instakill stuff is about, i found weapon condition, made it a little nicer for me. Also, i got the vibe of those fallout nv comics about the dumb courier. So i feel legend may have really nice quality or basically broken.

[acoustic tiger]

[solar swallow]

How tf do I get my game to look this good

[rocky tapir]

Alot of extra tweaking and mods heres what ive added:

CCon Grass Autumn 4k version (best grass mod out there but its still in beta)

CCon Trees (only selected the MAP fix in the fmod installer)

Rotten life textures

ATO 4 (deleted everything except the asphalt textures) (I like them most of all) so I merge that one with rotten by putting them in prio over rotten

A.D.E.G.A Trees only just deleted everything except the LOD folder and than I merged it with Red Autumn mod

Optional Upscaled Sky Textures from A.D.E.G.A

Weather Expansion for Atmospherics

Emergent Zone 2 (Collapse preset at 75%)

Than I have SSS 22 RC3 and the Atmospherics Beta version which you only get from supporting them on koffi and join that discord

And Im using COAX RTX reshade and only deleted the LUT effect from it

And thats about it , mad props to all those mod devs they really are doing amazing stuff

[rocky tapir]

heres my load order of those mods , and the emergent zone 2 is at the bottom which cant be seen in the screenshot, also I tweaked some sss settings to high in parallax and terrain settings , and used the force volumetric option in sss

and if you do this dont forget to read all instructions on these mods : SSS , ATMOS , EMERGENT ZONE , CCon grass as they have configs and some settings need changing

[vital cargo]

new GAMMA update is great

[acoustic tiger]

You're over estimating my modding capabilities . i just fully installed it and put the load order like this

[tepid jetty]

Did you have to delete shader cache etc or just installed it and that's it man?

[acoustic tiger]

it never occurred to me to do that, i just installed and after that was staring to the ground for a few solid minutes admiring the new textures

anway, hardest thing was tuning the SSS settings. I hate any blur or DOF effect. And getting a bit more FPS with tuning down world visibility and gras size/density. my game also ran 10x smoother with tripple buffering on in nvidea panel settings.

[heavy pelican]

[toxic dune]

is this from default gamma or is it from a mod?

Can SOMEONE please help me?!?! I have been asking this for a couple days with 0 response so I apologize for asking here. But does anyone have any idea why Reshade is suddenly locking my game at 30fps?! It runs perfectly smooth and fine at 50-60 without, but as soon as I add it back, the game is locked to 30.

[turbid vortex]

vsync issue perhaps? have you tried disabling that (ingame or in nvidia control panel/amd software)? Not really an idea other then that.

[patent coyote]

Let me triple check, thank you for your response!

[warm sierra]

#╟📸stalker2™-media

[timber cobalt]

Is that a jojo's reference?

[patent coyote]

So after some dinking around, it is the in-game VSync specifically. If I do not have Reshade Effects on, and VSync is on, it runs fine. But if I have BOTH the In Game VSync as well as Reshade on, it locks at 30, which it never did before. This is so confusing. I basically have to choose, V Sync with no screen tearing, or Reshade with Screen Tearing. -_-

[turbid vortex]

Nvidia or AMD?

[patent coyote]

Nvidia, I just turned VSync on in the Control Panel to see what happens.

[turbid vortex]

You can also try setting vsync to "fast" in control panel if regular vsync still caps to 30

[patent coyote]

Going to try this because even Contol Panel VSync locks it at 30, which is starting to make me think it is something to do with Reshade it self? But I looke and there is no Refresh Rate/VSync setting in Reshade itself

[patent coyote]

It WORKED!! Thank you so very very very much for your input!

[turbid vortex]

You're welcome, glad it helped

[turbid vortex]

to have the same effect as a whole you would need to also use SSS22 though with lens dirt enabled, that what makes the upper part where the light hits the mask look so dirty

this stuff

[thin obsidian]

Ah great, I was wondering if that would interfere with it, i use sss22 so thats perfect

thought it was a static one

the two things combined look real damn good together
#╟🎮stalker-videos📹 message

I also used to run that option in headgear animations where u have to take your mask off when you eat etc, it made it so immersive

only thing that bothered me was when you needed rad pills and stuff really quickly in a radiation patch

[turbid vortex]

yeah, same, nice to see thats included with gamma now

[thin obsidian]

yeah very

all I want now is a good breathing fog

that is synced to sounds as well

[turbid vortex]

yeah, since I'm sort of a immersion freak I also use the dosimeter mod that actually shows environment radiation, and I tend to walk around with it in hands

[thin obsidian]

Ohhhhhhhhhhh im going to try that!

its called dosimeter enhanced I think
