I'm using Arch Linux with CachyOS repo, and installed their gaming meta package.
After that, the only dependencies left was:

[raw arch]

If you use my texture rework, I already uploaded the fix for black eyes

[solid thorn]

that's just LSD

[solid thorn]

jokes aside, i thought i was using it. good thing you noticed it wasn't properly installed

i've also noticed i'm using 1.1 and not 1.2

[raw arch]

Ye 1.2 is just the eye fix.. Forgot to exclude those files in 1.1

[dire needle]

wdym it’s out for few months now on those ss i used summer season

[steep zinc]

It just looks different here…has more of that darker green, grass color…my summer grass looks a bit “lime” colored…and my summer alternate looks like a mix between autumn and summer..…in these SS’s the grass all looks to have a uniform, darker green color… maybe my eyes are failing me…but my greens don’t look like that at all

[dire needle]

in my trees mod you have matching textures for grass (one i used on those ss) you need to place it under ccon grass to use it
load order:
ccon grass (dosent matter what color you choose)
ccon trees summer

[dim atlas]

yo this is sick what reshade and texture are you using

[craggy basalt]

LMAO

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I havent seen something like this since this:

[raw arch]

Aight lemme try and understand this.. I'm happy with my looks but I am genuinely curious:

1. ATO 5 replaces most of Rotten Life (especially Alpha 3) so that makes it redundant.. Plus, ATO 5 is horribly optimized and missing a lot of common practices to make it better (bumps and shit)
2. Reworked grass meshes will only do something with PanceRide/Aydin so that mod only works in Deserted Hospital and Limansk since C Con is right below it in load order
3. Grass and Trees by PanceRide right under C Con? Sooooo it just replaces the whole C Con? Or did you hide specific maps?
4. C Con Trees under PanceRide.. Again, it just replaces PanceRide.. Why?
5. Vehicle Textures Redux.. I take it you don't use Rotten Life 2.0 at all? Since that mod is included and baked into Rotten Life

TL/DR:
ATO 5 replaces most of Rotten Life (if not all of Alpha 3)
Reworked grass meshes only works on 2 maps if you use C Con
PanceRide below C Con???
Trees below PanceRide???

Unless you are deleting specific textures, that load order makes no sense at all

[raw arch]

This is very recent, where did you even find this it's not like the old one you used to show from some other dude

[craggy basalt]

in the HACR server

dude didnt write ever since I told him that his modlist is bazooka ass

[static hull]

what would be the best way to arrange it???

[craggy basalt]

either pance or ccon grass, either ato or rotten

remove vehicle textures redux

[raw arch]

1. Delete ATO 5 and use Rotten Life 2.0 + 3.0.0
2. Reworked grass meshes is fine but will only effectively work for 2 maps unless you remove ccon

Here it is:

• Texture mod (only one) - If you use Rotten 2.0, delete Vehicles Redux
• Reworked grass meshes - Only works for 2 maps if you use C Con
• Grass mod (only one) - C Con OR Pance, not both
• Trees mod (only one) - C Con OR Pance, not both

This is what I did with Pance since I mainly use C Con which doesn't cover those 2 maps yet

And I deleted trees from Pance because I use C Con trees

[raw arch]

That is wack lmao.. I've never seen one like that
Mine looks similar but I deleted/hide A LOT of stuff

[craggy basalt]

You either remove stuff yourself so the bumps and shit wont conflict with eachother, or you pick singular one for specific stuff

Those dudes go for 3 texturepacks for the same thing lmao

[craggy basalt]

One thing is clear, you better pray to God that pipnik never finds you

[raw arch]

Ye my modlist looks a lot worse than that HACR one if you don’t have context

[hushed hollow]

I'ts mindblowing how huge leap forward GAMMA took in visuals, in comparison to the last year.....

dunno how to remove more hud elements lmao

[willow mountain]

in the game's keyboard settings, there is a setting that completely disables the hud

[solid thorn]

thanks

[willow mountain]

To turn off the health indicator, press the H key repeatedly.

[solid thorn]

my keyboard doesnt those keys, fuck

oh, MCM godsent

[solid thorn]

didn't find the keybind, anyway
hud_draw off

what else should i add? better trees?

[willow mountain]

Don't you have an "h" key?

[solid thorn]

i don't have numpad keys

[raw arch]

H isn’t on the numpad?

[solid thorn]

H removes some, other elements are set to the numpad enter

[raw arch]

You can change the keybind in MCM I believe.. The hide minimap thing.. For me, H removes BHS and Enter removes minimap and crosshair.. Nothing else is on the HUD then

[split skiff]

Cool binos, where from?

[solid thorn]

GFY, but I'm not sure

[split skiff]

gfy changes binoculars too? I thought it was just player models

[steep zinc]

Ok this is fire….thx

[wintry roost]

what reshade is this?

[strange finch]

No reshade

[wintry roost]

damn then how did you get the lighting and shadows like that?

and that grass

[strange finch]

Most settings cranked to max. Ccon autumn or summer grass and trees. Rotten textures. Terrain textures redone. And gfy texture overhaul. Half the reason that my game looks decent is due to the texture mods.

[jagged fulcrum]

do those texture mods have rly high resolution textures?

prolly have to have a ton of vram to run them

[strange finch]

Yes but vram isn't as big of a deal as you think, whats your gpu?

[jagged fulcrum]

it's a laptop rtx 4060

[strange finch]

What res do you play at?

[jagged fulcrum]

2560*1600, though i lowered it down and had pretty good performance increases

so it's like 2x lower rn

even though It doesn't use up 100% of my gpu, it just feels better to play

[strange finch]

I would just check out the texture mods one by one and try them yourself

[jagged fulcrum]

i don't mind the way it looks in base gamma tbh, it can look beutiful with the right lighting

but I'd be willing to try some out, what are your top ones that you'd reccomend?

Hi, can you tell me how to take a panoramic screenshot like yours?

[quasi parrot]

Good to know, I will try

[vernal gale]

hey, panoramic shots made out of many more shots in a line

for example those needed 50 shots in a row

simply set your time factor to 0.1 and start taking shots

after that go to Photoshop and photomerge part

[willow mountain]

it sounds complicated, but I'll try, thank you)

You use any reshade?

[north raft]

Yes, I use it, I set it up myself

[craggy basalt]

I see. Are you using ambient light or something like that? Since the moon light and the light around the campfire looks too sweet for vanilla lol

[north raft]

Most likely it's because of forced volumetric lighting from sss

[craggy basalt]

I see, thanks

[grand kettle]

why is bro live recording the zone

[unborn lark]

You telling me you wouldn't watch a live stream of the zone?

is that a grass mod that works for the new levels or is that the grass that comes with them?

[night wind]

how does this all affect your alls performance on 0.9.4?

Assuming 1440p lol

[cedar gull]

the worst performance hit is dense foliage (source: my ass). whittling down my foliage levels helps fps a ton

[grand wadi]

which grass looks better??

[mellow plinth]

id say second one,its also like a reasonable dense grass look and not too colorful like 3

[raw arch]

Incredibly blurry and "glowing" when looking at the sun tho

Instant uninstall if I ever saw that.. But that's just me

[mild wedge]

isnt that a loadorder or settings issue maybe?@raw arch

[raw arch]

Yeah it's something in SSS.. But does not just affect grass.. But it is what it is.. I don't like those meshes anyway..

But if the guy above is asking for personal opinions, mine would be his 1st image.. That one is best by far

[mild wedge]

by pure looks yeah i agree no doubt

what grass are you guys using??

[vernal gale]

[willow mountain]

I don't even know where it's from, but it might be the grass that comes with the new locations. As far as I know, ccon hasn't been adapted for the new levels, and I don't have any other vegetation addons. Maybe it's Rotten? I don't know

[raw arch]

Base New Levels comes with its own grass.. Some are decent but 2 of the levels at least look absolutely horrible..

The only mod I know of that has adaptation is Gardener of the Zone.. I was personally working on adding CCon to New Levels but gave up after a bit since I became ill and not in the mood lol

[willow mountain]

I got it, thanks for the information, but what happened in the end? Did the development stop?

[raw arch]

I think Huh teased a few times that he would look into it but I wouldn't bother him for something like that.. And at this point I doubt it interests him enough.. My development on it stopped because it was too much info for me to handle I tried understanding it as best as I could but gave up in trying.. I need to be spoonfed these things lol..

[willow mountain]

Hype when I found that the first time, only for it to be just meh.

I want to say you’re wrong, but now you got me doubting myself. Kinda crazy and says a lot when it’s not immediately apparent which one is the game from today or the game from ~15 years ago 🤣

oh! thank you!

[terse ruin]

near campfire - grass shadows (left picture) , a few meters away no grass shadows (right picture)
any idea on how to increase the shadow distance so I can see the grass shadows from far away as well? I tried tweaking a lot of shadow settings but none seem to have any effect so far

[willow mountain]

I've been wondering about this too, but I haven't found a solution. However, there is information about this on the moddb addon page - To activate the new grass features use the option Grass shadows quality. Is recommended to set this option to a minimum of MEDIUM to fix the grass shadows rendering. Non-directional shadows ( Flashlights, Bonfires, etc. ) are enabled in the ULTRA quality [ This option is only recommended for HIGH-END PCs ]

[terse ruin]

I set the option to ULTRA and cranked everything related to it up but there was no difference
maybe I need to restart the game after making these changes but it didn't help

[willow mountain]

yes, I have the same problem, even if I turn on all shadows on ultra, but in version 21-22, when I turned on grass shadows in the game itself, I didn't have this problem

[terse ruin]

what grass mod do you run?

[willow mountain]

ccon

[terse ruin]

me too, maybe it is related to ccon, I also don't want to uninstall ccon to test it with different grass right now xD

[willow mountain]

although I haven't paid much attention to it lately

Used debug mode in order to make this happen, spawn 3 dutys right in the get-go when i started new game.
Thats it, i have 60 hours in, 3 pals that is there for me and i for them.
damn i love this game experience.

[steady bison]

damn your pics look so realsitic at some points is it playable with this reshade/luts or its more of a screenshot settings

[devout viper]

Do u guys de activate HUD or simply cut it ?

[tired marlin]

I deactivate it most of the time with the hotkey but if I have a buff icon I just crop it out in post

[terse ruin]

love the lightning in those screenshots!

[willow mountain]

for the most part, these are SSS settings, use reshade at your discretion, to get the blur, I use the Cinematic DOF

[steady bison]

yeah Im not a fan of reshade never use it so was wondering what ya did to make it look so realistic. do ya had a channel out here where ya share your sss settings to make it look like that? and does it hit fps alot?

[willow mountain]

on my settings, I get 40-60 fps, and on the default settings, I get 60-80 fps

[steady bison]

uuff quite a big hit but graphics do look amazing. mby u got a video or smth?

[willow mountain]

I'll finish the video soon, and it will probably be on the channel tomorrow

something just looks off about the grass

[strange finch]

No AO?

amb or hemi too high imo

[onyx walrus]

ive got it on medium

[onyx walrus]

hemi?

[onyx walrus]

im running the game on a rtx 3050 and a 10 year old cpu so maybe thats also part of the problem

[dire needle]

r2_sun_lumscale_hemi or r2_sun_lumscale_amb, when you paste those into console they will show your current values try lowering them

[onyx walrus]

Ohhhhh

Thanks

[onyx walrus]

Amb is at 0.7 and hemi is at 0.8

And I keep on getting really bad fps in army warehouses and agroprom

[dire needle]

hmm look ok i have no other idea

[dire needle]

decrease grass density then you use high af density and struggle to get 30fps

quick question, im assuming this is c con, is it the autum recolor or default autumn ? and was any reshade used if u do remember

[timber cobalt]

Bro is melting his pc with this grass density

[atomic hinge]

maybe hes upping the height to give the illusion of being filled ?

[timber cobalt]

Depending on what grass mod you're using

[atomic hinge]

would it not work with ccon ?

Base upgrade

[strange finch]

Its about 0.38 density

Mine is on 0.22

[atomic hinge]

0.38 density for me would look like a desert

[timber cobalt]

Using aydin's grass ?

[cunning raven]

this one felt cozy

[atomic hinge]

combination of c con and adins, so whatever area isnt covered by c con adin would take it

[terse ruin]

looks cool but maybe you could fit a rug in there to make it even more comfy ?

[fiery pike]

my optimal settings gor grass it's density 0.25, height 0.8, and distance 90-100. I tried a different settings, and if i increase any value, my fps go lower
however, if I decrease it, I practically don't see any changes, a couple of frames don't count, it's not a 2-fold drop if you increase the density from 0.25 to 0.15, for example, but I was surprised that even the height of the grass affects the fps

[clever badger]

Yess yess i was thinking that im still looking for advanced toolkit and stuff i need for rug

[terse ruin]

looking forward to it !

[cunning crest]

yup. high grass = more pixels => more overdraw.

[fiery pike]

I always thought looking at crazy values ​​like 1.5 height that the grass texture itself just stretches to horrible values, but apparently it works a little differently

[dire needle]

whole mesh is scaled in every direction and iirc stops on set max value

[fiery pike]

I can't figure it out, I disabled blur in sss, it's not about it, I don't remember such shadows from sss on the grass before, they blur quite a lot and create an unpleasant halo, I already reset sss settings to stock, cfg - ccon_warm, but I changed hemi to 1, and gamma to 1.1 with brightness to 0.7. Looking at the shadows on the trees, I can assume that the problem is not in ccon grass, maybe someone knows what the problem is? Just don't say that this effect is accompanied by a new TAA
also, quite rough shadows on the trees looking not good, again the sss settings don't help
you can see it in the first screenshot on the grass near me, and in the second one there are small bushes also near me

[fiery pike]

Yes, that's pretty much how I understood it

[wary spade]

May i ask what are your pc specs? i'm trying to find the sweet spot
