and thats why shes the best mule

shes hard to kill, angry as hell and can carry over 100kg

[tepid basalt]

Molten Chimera

[outer grove]

dinner time

[tepid basalt]

spicy man meal tonight baby

that fuckin chimera cleared the entire top half of the map

the bandits at the fuel station, the military at the north, and finally came to me at the merchant housing.

[outer grove]

Whoa. That's unusual even for a Chimaera.

[outer grove]

Wait.. where are you with that description?
I can't think of any places that have a fuel station and a military outpost.

Zaton has a fuel station near the south-west, but not much bandit presence. Also judging by your hands, you are probably wearing light armor unsuitable for Zaton.
Cordon has bandits, and a military outpost at the northern checkpoint—but no fuel station.
Darkscape has a fuel station in the south-east, but no military presence at all.

[outer grove]

Wait.. that train in the background. It is Cordon!
Did you mean the Vehicle Station?

[dark brook]

In cordon ? What the fuck that's so rare

[outer grove]

'Monkey on typewriter'-situation.

[gilded schooner]

a better nade has never been thrown... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuzInEqGeMg&ab_channel=Rob

[dark brook]

POG

[outer grove]

Yep. It's satisfying to get that throw just right.

[tepid basalt]

Yea

Saw it had a few barrels so I thought it was named fuel station haha

[outer grove]

Aha.

[tepid basalt]

fockin hell they always travel in pairs

ngl perk artifacts are the best version of artifacts ive ever had

everytime I find a new one its so cool

Nature Wildlife: The Cycle of Life

[dark brook]

Wait for my artifacts rework to be combined with it

You will just be able to run from one field to another none stop

[tepid basalt]

very nice

[dark brook]

I'll make Artifacts sellable no matter their condition

I also need to fix a problem with the melting UI

And get a proper icon for the melter

I'll also rework artifacts prices and stats

And weight

Most likely weight / 3

Because you'll swim in artifacts literally

[trail dagger]

Death lamp should weigh 6.66 pounds

[dark brook]

true !

[wintry hamlet]

or maybe use what all normal human beings use ? 0.666kg or 6.66kg (haha imperial bad metric good)

[trail dagger]

Merican

[patent hedge]

6.66 stones

[wintry hamlet]

6.66 cheese burgers or big macs

[torpid mauve]

stalker brok e

[patent kettle]

oh yea? check this out

right after my previous screenshot lmao

[worthy river]

hahahaha idk why this comed to my mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_C9NKOK7AI

[tepid basalt]

seconds before disaster

[wintry hamlet]

another one comes at you from the right?

right after you killed the first one

[toxic lily]

Remember me that Windows XP wallpaper back in the days

[wintry hamlet]

kerosene and canned corn in the cordon tent ? gamma starting to bully players

[clever badger]

since its a sunset I made the sun a little more yellow

[sacred stag]

Nah I'm sure you were stuck in a psy emission zone.

[clever badger]

what

[sacred stag]

Well

Every color changes to extreme yellow when you're stuck in a psy emission zone, like the Miracle Machine for ex.

[clever badger]

no?

it was literally a normal day

there were no emissions lmao

[edgy mountain]

I think he was joking about how it looked like you're in a psy zone

[clever badger]

okay

[tepid basalt]

the food chain

the flesh actually started to fight back lmaoo

[sacred stag]

The fleshes has started their uprising

Soon, they'll be the new apexes.

[bleak cave]

did he ded?

[torpid mauve]

he gone

[wintry hamlet]

first day cordon

i let fanatic kill it as i literally just took his boar quest

had to empty multiple mags into it myself tho

[dark brook]

Yeah ZCP can very rarely spawn some

Thing is, even a Toz can kill it

[wintry hamlet]

something i just noticed, thank you for making early knives capable of skinning boars

sure realistically you wouldnt be able to skin them with a weak knife but for balance since they are in the early game a lot we should be able to skin them from the start

but now i cant skin the chimera for its precious meat and thats sad

masculine meal is best food

[dark brook]

Yeah you need a good knife for that :(

[wintry hamlet]

first thing in messages when i spawned in was "help, a psy dog jumped us in cordon"

have you made sure zcp wont absolutely undo every balancing you did to stalker and mutant squad spawns?

[toxic lily]

A bit foggy this days...

[dark brook]

I didn't touch them

Spawns are vanilla

And I use ZCP 1.4 with spawns balanced by Demonized

It's much less cancer than ZCP 1.5 spawning Controllers by groups in early maps

(honestly it was a lot of fun )

Getting ganked by 2 controllers in the swamp on day one

[toxic lily]

Yeah.. fun... i remember one gameplay when i chose "The Humanity need to be controlled"...

Lets just say that i kill controllers with extreme prejudice now on...

[fickle roost]

So apparently DLDSR only works with the max resolution of the monitor, so enjoy a random screenshot in a crazy 7680x2160 resolution, I had to put it on Google Drive because the PNG weigh 30mb

Giant molten chimera in the swamps (While being hunted my militaries (got a bounty on my head))

The beauty of Anormality

[wanton delta]

Do anomalies light up like that normally? Or is it a reshade or addon? @coral sable

[torpid mauve]

the green one is from cinematic vfx

and the below is the pulse anomaly, that one lights the area it will affect

[coral sable]

The light one is the Pulse anomaly as Pip said, during night its light is more visible

[wanton delta]

@bleak cave wooow. Still using the same Reshade? What is that?

[bleak cave]

I keep modifying it 😄

[wanton delta]

What's the current setup? Do you have the files again? 😛 Sorry

[bleak cave]

Yes ofc ill share

I've realised the more important ones are reshade settings but also some settings for the shaders and color grading addon

Also I'm on EFC 3.0 right now, not sure what other graphical mods they have

this is the reshade preset

r2_sun_lumscale 3.0
r2_sun_lumscale_hemi 1.0
r2_sun_lumscale_amb 0.5

those are important

[alpine cypress]

clear sky missions seem to be quite a bit more hardcore than duty ones lol

once had a defend rostok mission where i defended rostok from 1 bandit

usually just a few of them

not a wave of them

[wanton delta]

Which seems like its already in GAMMA.. So these effect should be visible in game shouldnt it? 🤔

[wanton delta]

What are they? Where do you add them or change them?

[dark brook]

That's a bit overexposed to my taste

[bright peak]

You can change them either in the game via opening console or in the user.ltx

I remember Raul saying his preset is based on Aggressor so it's Tarkov based, hence the exposure and contrast.

[clever badger]

Really?

Somehow I finished them using only shotgun with 2 round magazine

[bleak cave]

Also I've used the "B.o.n.K" preset , i can't remember which is which now 😄

[wanton delta]

Shit.. the increased zombie setting finally kicked in -_-

[wanton delta]

Damn that looks awesome. Is that a reshade? @gritty rain

[gritty rain]

It is autumn textures + expedition reshade (which I tweaked myself)

[keen void]

Yup, that's why I asked for the user.ltx file as well. Color grading, lumscale settings are stored in that file. Great job btw, I like what you're doing with this.

[bleak cave]

ty 😄

[thin ocean]

half-life vibes

[night gull]

Oh yes

[alpine cypress]

think i might reinstall glossy ssr and remove the water bit lol

[dark brook]

Weird

[clever badger]

you need to keep one of the water settings enabled for this to work, i forget which one

[alpine cypress]

soft water?

[torpid mauve]

yea

[clever badger]

yeah

[alpine cypress]

i already have it though

[clever badger]

idk turn all the water options on and see if it fixes it

i just remember seeing the same thing and undoing it

[alpine cypress]

i'm actually gonna turn it off because my options are already on

[clever badger]

that works too lol

[alpine cypress]

yup, classic turn it on and off again

welp still the same

[bright peak]

did you clear the shader cache?

[alpine cypress]

hmmm no

i'll try that

still the same

[torpid badge]

are you using some other textures for the water?

it happened to me several months ago when i used classic textures with ssr

maybe you're using some other world texture addons that replace the water texture

@alpine cypress

[alpine cypress]

ohhh yeah

classic textures

[torpid badge]

then that's it

[alpine cypress]

thx

[torpid badge]

;]

@dark brook be sure people with classic textures disable the ssr addon

[alpine cypress]

you can just disable the water part of the ssr addon

[torpid badge]

oh good

btw i like ssr water the most but still the vanilla water is better than the vanilla anomaly water in my opinion lol

[alpine cypress]

yeah i quite like the vanilla textures

[clever badger]

What is the addon, which adds this mask overlay?

[leaden jetty]

As a bandit it's time to grab the whole armory.

[grave sleet]

The sun is rising. Time to search for artifacts in Truck Cemetery....Not sure if thats a sane thing to do,i hate this part of the zone.

[split hedge]

Too high to give a fuck.

And this was nuts.

[dawn trench]

thats cool

[sacred stag]

yo, what suit is that? Looks rad.

[grave sleet]

Never visited this place before...after all this time, this game still has new places to discover

[thin ocean]

Mercenary STS-W

[sacred stag]

nice, thanks dude

[dark brook]

Where's that xD ?

[split hedge]

Looks like the port in Outskirts to me.

[grave sleet]

Yeah, exactly

[sharp steeple]

what the fuck lol

[lime dove]

How did you get it to look so pretty?

[dawn trench]

if you read, just a little bit further...

[grave sleet]

we been there too many times huh haha

[split hedge]

Yep, more than I would had liked

[torpid mauve]

truck cemetary

[wintry hamlet]

at least now those bloodsuckers or bueres or psysuckers or poltergeists dont surprise us anymore

depending on your luck

[split hedge]

If you take the right path to Strelok's hideout, then you don't have to face any of them.

[bright peak]

Just act surprised, they have feelings

[wintry hamlet]

oh sorry i didnt know please ask them to not cancel me

[lime dove]

Do these come with gamma?

[torpid mauve]

No

[worthy river]

With the new reshade version i can get more than 30fps in performance mode at dx10 on low end laptop, amazing.

[dark brook]

Hehehehehe exactly why I took it for the main menu

[dark brook]

Oh so Reshade 5.0.0 increases performances ?

[worthy river]

Yes with performance mode on. I dont play with reshade on in my laptop because it goes from 45fps to 20-30, but this new version with performance mode on go with 30-45 fps.

in a low end laptop, i think they go for a few optimizations, but i play without reshade because framerate will save my life from a chimera.

[grave sleet]

I got 2 brain cells for real, didnt even noticed its the place from the main menu. My brain is melting from playing this game too much....but i never stop . I can finally hear the Monolith calling my name. Im coming oh Monolith. Your child is coming...

[wintry hamlet]

[late lava]

I'm actually really digging 0 saturation mode

[wintry hamlet]

if you really hate colours

it's moody

because it is lol

[bright peak]

Noir Anomaly ReShade preset when

[bleak cave]

Its autumn!

[quiet cradle]

my eyes legit water looking that thies @bleak cave but im not sure if its in a good or bad way xD

[wintry hamlet]

this is from efp i am pretty sure

[quiet cradle]

efp did something wierd to the colors/light

[wintry hamlet]

nope he did his own changes

[quiet cradle]

no i ment from my pov

it didnt look bad, just different, hard to explain

[wintry hamlet]

not saying its bad

but it looks a bit too colorful i think

and bright

[bleak cave]

Its my intention to make it colorful and bright

[quiet cradle]

dont get me wrong they look good, but they also hurt my gremlin eyes at the same time

[bleak cave]

I know u're used to this 😛

[quiet cradle]

yeah the good old "the world is sad and dark and unfair oh look a cat" style

[bleak cave]

exactly!

thats how i played 90% of my stalker games

with the dark tone

[quiet cradle]

i think i would go with more colors if i ever play as freedom

but i dont know if my avatar would survive all the consume to maintain them

[lime dove]

What do you use to make it look so colourful?

[bleak cave]

ENHANCED SHADERS AND COLOR GRADING FOR 1.5.1 addon

• Reshade settings and even the ingame Basic Light settings help

[bleak cave]

with tweaked settings

[lime dove]

This is an extra addon not part of gamma?

[bleak cave]

Im not sure if its part of gamma, Im playing on ETF modpack at the moment just to test sdifferences

[lime dove]

ah

We have something called enhanced shaders colour grading 1.09 in gamma

[bleak cave]

thats it

but u need to change some settings

eighter u copy paste that user.ltx i uploaded here into your appdata

or you change them in console

r2_tonemap on
r2_tonemap_adaptation 10.
r2_tonemap_amount 1.
r2_tonemap_lowlum 0.5
r2_tonemap_middlegray 1.5

I think those

haha

[thin ocean]

how many broken guns is too many broken guns?

[bleak cave]

why are ure icons broken too?

[thin ocean]

the screenshot button breaks UI for some reason

[lime dove]

And of course when i do the changes its night time

[bleak cave]

getting late

[bright peak]

Raul, you sure like looking like a proper tourist with those screenshot, not a zone dweller are you trying to brainwash us showing zone this beautiful, what is your point hmmmmmmmm

[bleak cave]

haha

Im an undercover Freedom member

that thinks the zone is beautifyl

[bright peak]

That was quick lmao

[fickle roost]

I also went for the colorful zone look on my own game, I like the contrast between the harshness of the Zone and it's beauty, as if nature simply did not care about you and your suffering

[ocean ocean]

Your wish has been granted

[quiet cradle]

yes

[lime dove]

lmao stalker noir

[quiet cradle]

seems legit

[bright peak]

True wish granter right there

[quiet cradle]

o-O yo is that dima in the shot? mothatrucker owns me money

[bleak cave]

Thats Dima right there

[quiet cradle]

he pretends to be a statue? no wonder i could not find him!

[night gull]

Omg this hurts more then a flashbang

[split hedge]

Shiny. But honestly that is how the Zone would probably look like in real life too despite the grey and gritty mentality. Still prefer it that way.

[clever badger]

Golden autumn is so good

[fickle roost]

I agree. I tried the desaturated version for a while but then came back to the original

[clever badger]

the bloom

[clever badger]

ZAMN!!

[fickle roost]

lewd

[wintry hamlet]

at first i thought your hand was burning

[lime dove]

Its the sheer power emanating from the echo

[thin ocean]

Gatekeeper's part of the quest spawned a bunch of Freedom along with the Monolith

[wintry hamlet]

its supposed to spawn a few...

[lime dove]

I loved that part of my anomaly play through, got so much great loot

[split hedge]

Supposed to be that way.

[ocean ocean]

I guess SAS stands for Super Accurate Shooter.

[thin ocean]

aha, modern warfare.

[hybrid summit]

Great game that one, that mission too

[ocean ocean]

Yep, the tense feeling when Zakhaev's men chasing you through Pripyat. Not many COD games these days give you back that feeling.

[bleak cave]

I dont know why its even more colored now

"on morphine"

[ocean ocean]

Lol Sakharov! Chill bro!

[grave sleet]

your eyes are probably melted already. Aint this a bit too bright brother?

[bleak cave]

https://tenor.com/view/ayo-blink-sirberus-best-sirberus-is-best-cool-man-gif-24116019

I'm ok with it

[languid sedge]

seems pretty straightforward

[bleak cave]

jsut do it

My boys and the teletubies in the back

[ocean ocean]

Hey! The Power Rangers!

[grave sleet]

If u say brother,just make sure u still see the brightness of the Monolith .

[bleak cave]

My friend doesnt play around

He hunts monoliths

I have no idea how he made it this far, he has no radiation protection

[bright peak]

That tends to happen if you are a walking reactor or an emission never gonna forget that one.

[grave sleet]

Its time to be scared to death

I WANT A GOOD PC AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[grave sleet]

im playing usually with 30 fps too

[sharp steeple]

i can't even use shaders man i use dx8

someone said you could use shaders on dx8 but uhhh i don't know how

if i could tho mashallah i would only use beef's nvgs

[wintry hamlet]

life of having a shitty laptop as your gaming pc

[grave sleet]

u can download reshade from here https://reshade.me ,install it for directx 8 by chosing directx 8 avx from the games bin folder. once its installed u can open the reshade menu in game with home key

[sharp steeple]

so i would effectively have two copies of reshade right ?

[grave sleet]

im not the best in case of explaining things,but there should be guide on youtube on how to install reshade, my english is shit btw ,im from eastern europe

[sharp steeple]

it's quite ok man you're trying to help which is what counts

[grave sleet]

not really,u need to install the reshade for every directx version of the game ,so i think thats either gonna be a different installment of the reshade,or u can simply update the already installed reshade version

[sharp steeple]

ohh alright

thanksss

[grave sleet]

bro is playing stalker fairy tale edition

[grave sleet]

no problem,hope i can help

[grave sleet]

ayo what reshade are u using?

[sharp steeple]

autumn textures i'm guessing and whatever reshade

[grave sleet]

looks dope, a bit too happy for me but its dope

[sharp steeple]

hehe i know rightt

[grave sleet]

i found an installation guide for the reshade, check it out if u want https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2opnyajsw6c

[sharp steeple]

sicks thanks

my pc would probably cook lol i'm only trying this stuff to get beefs nvgs working

[grave sleet]

u can just simply install the reshade and use some basic effects,no need to install agressor , cause agressore is basically just a bunch of reshade effects pre aplied

[sharp steeple]

hmm alright alright

[bleak cave]

Don't watch the chat

[grave sleet]

i mean its hard to find a women in the zone, no wonder he was coming out

Aint she pretty?

[bleak cave]

she is

[fleet sorrel]

Hm

🤔

[bleak cave]

Absolute Nature addon

[wintry hamlet]

that almost looks like how old stalker games had their grass textures but different colours

[bleak cave]

im testing stuff

Tryin to get the "dead zone" addon

i think it was removed or its behind a paywall

nevermind

i found it

but its ||encrypted|| 😄

ill post here some comparisons

Not encrypted...but u need a dbl-file unpacker

https://www.moddb.com/mods/dead-air/addons/dbl-file-unpacker

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17PMTp1UQtpAbVfE5bALF-mEEa-ZoIgje

and the link for the actual files

[ocean ocean]

Dude has a cool avatar. Looks like he's moonwalking

[bleak cave]

"dead zone" summer

Would be nice to have a seasons mod

with all those texture

we have summer, winter, autumn

"dead zone" dead preset

[bleak cave]

the zone after ... atomic explosion

[dark brook]

Dead zone flora isn't that good...

[bleak cave]

It looks very outdated

[dark brook]

And Agressor ground is better

[bleak cave]

I removed it pretty fast

[dark brook]

I think dead zone have nice textures for buildings and stuff

But for nature you need some of the flora redux stuff

[bleak cave]

Do you mean this ?

ABSOLUTE NATURE REDUX ANOMALY ADOPTATION

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/absolute-nature-redux-anomaly-adoptation

[dark brook]

This

These fat leaves look good and help with antialasing

[grave sleet]

I hate the great swamps but man...This looks stunning

[grave sleet]

is absolute nature performance heavy ?

[worthy river]

tried it yesterday it hits my laptop the same as vanilla grass

is more like pasture than grass with plans and leaves here and there, i doenst look that good at lower than 70% grass density like vanilla grass that mixes better with the ground textures.

the thing i really notice is that nature redux looks less pixelated from affar

it doesnt mix well with the trees (my pov) but i just tried it in cordon.

ill try dead zone textures but with nature redux flora

lol i am just a 30fps-40fps player thanks dx10 helped me with the stuttering.

[real citrus]

In case you ask the image is not mine, I took it from a stalker facebook group of a guy who modded his game, I asked him what method he used to get those results but he never answered me :((

[dark brook]

Oversaturated shadow that hinders gameplay

Easy to make, nice for screenshots, but unplayable as any ennemy hiding in the shadow will rape you

[primal glacier]

Playing without enhanced shaders (ssr only) and in my opinion it looks better. Maybe it's just my personal taste

[compact panther]

doing it before the update

certified big brain play

[hybrid summit]

The 100 ones are all taken before updating

I don't think it affects what you take before that

The price though, that's a good question

Can't complain

[worthy river]

Nice try zcp.

[ocean ocean]

Hey! I've found Yeti in Red Forest!

[gilded schooner]

Stalker looking good. Maybe a bit too saturated though

[unkempt sparrow]

It's conflicting with another mod for the ground texture because DZ make ground as mud/red, which I prefer making it a more desolated place

[gilded schooner]

Last one

[grave sleet]

ohh,thanks fo the answer

[bright peak]

Gamma has Agressor ground textures.

"Make GAMMA texture pack:

Dead zone + Agressor ground + EFP sky boxes + some flora redux grass (the fat leaves to help with aliasing)"

Also Grok said this in to-do channel.

[bleak cave]

yes but ... I want people from here to see this too

[wintry hamlet]

[bleak cave]

u're there so u can see them, but there are people who aren't in that channel

[wintry hamlet]

looks straight out of a teletubies episode

[bleak cave]

u remember the scientists?

[wintry hamlet]

ofc

[bleak cave]

The actual teletubies

[wintry hamlet]

[wintry hamlet]

very cool view from up there

"now how do i get down "

[thin ocean]

[wintry hamlet]

well, you are ded

you are very ded

[spare peak]

Minimap 🤮

[thin ocean]

It's actually not super aggressive ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[thin ocean]

[wintry hamlet]

he can kill all of them

you might want to help before that happens

[thin ocean]

I only had to shoot it like 10 times

they deleted it

[split hedge]

That's the type of screenshot you can hear.

Symphony of gun fire.

[wintry hamlet]

can i ask which outfit is that?

[high shore]

something i whipped up today, not connected to any outfit, unless when Jurko finishes ABC (his outfit rebalance/overhaul) it might be used there

[wintry hamlet]

thought it was connected to the starter duty outfit as the chest area looks very similar to the icon

[balmy knot]

that helmet looks sick

[tepid basalt]

just updated and got your latest batch @@plucky oak

GOOD fuckin work man

[tepid basalt]

nothin abnormal

just one ugly fucker

[queen hawk]

In a weird way he's cute 😍

[wanton delta]

Holy shit those icons look so clean, all the armors etc. What are the icons used?

[tepid basalt]

cr3pis

not entirely sure why it isnt chosen by default

some dont jive with it i guess, and prefer the old familiar items

[wanton delta]

Interesting.. .. purist scum!

Wonder why its disabled.. It should be optional if it works..? Maybe its broken in some way

[torpid mauve]

cr3pis updated the vanilla icons recently

it works fine

[plucky oak]

thanks thanks thanks
helmetless ones, for gamma, soon

[tepid basalt]

Shit looks buttery smooth

[tepid basalt]

Is is optional

[thin ocean]

I threw a grenade and he flew

[outer grove]

Haven't seen this outfit previously. Very nice.

[wintry hamlet]

i think thats a model of the nosorog

they are very nice tho

[unreal sonnet]

Nice morning view in the swamp

[thin ocean]

Truck cemetery was a gold mine

[wintry hamlet]

advanced tools? nice

thats a few technician missions completed

[split hedge]

This makes me wonder how tough would it be for a Monolith to get basic tools.

[ocean ocean]

So this is how you play guitar in the Zone.

[outer grove]

Not tough at all since you can find basic tools in the north as well.

[split hedge]

Oh, that's nice then.

[sharp steeple]

yet another drug making kit, this time in radar

[night gull]

Ayo

[leaden jetty]

I'm offically SIN faction now due to mutations

[wintry hamlet]

.... am i the only one here failing to see anything recognizable at all in that image

[leaden jetty]

The gun is fused to my right arm

If I walk, it stays that way

[wintry hamlet]

[bright peak]

Someone tried to fix that but it's just not one code to correct, you gotta work on every place's static AI so the guy abandoned the mod

[languid sedge]

my face when

[bright peak]

Monolith heard about my stash in the Rookie

[languid sedge]

they really want that ball artefact huh

[languid sedge]

game casually spawns a pseduogiant at the exact location i have a quest at

[leaden jetty]

[compact panther]

get ks23 and dump its bullets into the thing

easy

[fickle roost]

Campfire are comfy

[sacred stag]

This thing makes me remember a video about the same thing, but on the Skadovsk, with Kino - Calm Night as background and ends with an emission on YT.

[sacred stag]

Yeah, that one with a guy drinking vodka and later, the other that sniped a fucker with his SVD.

[steady bison]

Oh no

[sacred stag]

rest in people's inventory

[outer grove]

Nah. At that angle it won't hit you.

[bright crater]

Wonder if the pulse can kill mutants if they're underneath it? In base Anomaly the amount of pulses which seemed to specifically track and hit the player was insane, it was ridiculous

[wintry hamlet]

i think they act like other anomalies . mutants are affected by them

[bright crater]

Great! Would love to see some muties get fucked up by one

[clever badger]

only hit player

[wintry hamlet]

i could be wrong, i never seen them strike above a mutant

[clever badger]

priorities

[grand jungle]

I thought like : Ohh sheet. Normal day agroprom... and then

yep no, im out

[thin ocean]

What mod is that?

[outer grove]

Guys.. Can you please stop shooting at each other for five minutes?
I'm trying to sort out my stash over here..

[clever badger]

Not from stalker but it still looks good

[sacred stag]

Nice flash. Good ol' Madness Combat.

[wanton delta]

Nice look. That a Reshade?

[half palm]

so pretty

[wanton delta]

@dark brook This is that setting i was talking about in the reshade. It's not that bad is it? It just removes the grey smokescreen on the game.

[half palm]

pretty clean looking

i keep going back and forth on my reshade I cant be satisfied

[wanton delta]

That was me for ages. Then i accidently over-wrote it and it messed my shit up and ive never been able to get the same look, so i started just trying to get rid of the shitty grey smokescreen in the game, and with a single slider adjust on a config in the default GAMMA reshade i was able to achieve it. All this time 😛

The reshade GAMMA comes with is already good, just feels under-utilised (example above) to get rid of the grey smokescreen. Its preference though, i guess some like the dull drab grey look

[dark brook]

I'm pretty sure my game doesn't have that grey effect

[wanton delta]

huh.. Well i was using a clean install with the reshade gamma comes with.. maybe you changed something on yours?

[half palm]

what setting was it?

[wanton delta]

#old-feedback-suggestions message

For me it's 5th from the bottom in reshade shaders settings

[rigid cradle]

Demonstration of how to safely traverse Hanging Moss

[rigid cradle]

A further demonstration of navigating around Hanging Moss and Ground Moss

[wanton delta]

I just walk through it. Works every time?

[rigid cradle]

i make a point to stop and go through it slowly,

cause sometimes the shitting things sting me if I walk through it in one continuous go without stopping

[wanton delta]

Post your skills guys - This might help view some kind of trend where one is dominant where it might be able to be tweaked to be a more even spread for balance.

imo endurance (i think this affects run speed and stam?) def needs to be lowered. 8 game days in and i can run infinitely with a nearly full pack at 130kg

[bright peak]

They need to be nerfed ya, I dropped all of them around 50%

[tepid basalt]

self nerf; the solution

[bright peak]

Some like challenge but some crave suffering.

[tepid basalt]

and some want to run around like they are wearing an exo

[bright peak]

Never used it, does these stats also effect exos?

[tepid basalt]

used what?

[bright peak]

Are they like fo3 like power armors or 4?

[tepid basalt]

an exo?

yea they require batteries

[bright peak]

Oo i see

[bright peak]

Yup, i meant these personal stats

[late lava]

no, the exo has it's own carry weight buff and movement penalty seperate from the skill system

[bright peak]

Sheesh sounds fun

[tepid basalt]

personal stats are seperate everything else adds on top of it

prob could reach 200kg with an exo if not more

[bright peak]

Zone's chonkers

[languid sedge]

gotdamn

[sacred stag]

Hey guys, do you know where this stash is located? The white one near the icon of the entrance to Lab X-18.

[outer grove]

Chest at the end of the underground corridor leading to the lab.

[sacred stag]

ah, so it's underground. Thanks.

[wintry hamlet]

dont go inside the lab. its right before the entrance

[sacred stag]

yeah yeah, I know that part. Thanks for clarifying it out though.

[torpid mauve]

[wanton delta]

Looks amazing. What are you using?

[torpid mauve]

a modified dead zone + modified expedition 1.0 reshade

[clever badger]

is that agressor ground textures/vanilla grass?

[torpid mauve]

you mean me?

[clever badger]

yea

doesnt look like dead zone ground

[torpid mauve]

I think its the summer pack

[wanton delta]

Thank you for burning my eyes out of my skull with the bloom.

[compact panther]

yep

[late lava]

free sauna

[random shard]

I wonder what it looks like

[clever badger]

My guess is an Ash12

[sacred stag]

It would prob like this

And Grok may change the name to ShAK-12 aswell

Though the ASh is still a rocking choice.

[tepid basalt]

last mutant on doing spring cleaning for mercs

not sure i have enough nades for this fucker

[wanton delta]

cant see anything

[tepid basalt]

the thing of nightmares

[random shard]

that is sick

[sacred stag]

Yep, I predicted it. Great work nonetheless.

[lament jasper]

i just hope it wont look/sound cancerous like some of BAS weapons :v im not a fan of that LOUD pulling out weapons (just why?) or ultra ,,tacticool'' reload/run like bas scar-h

[wintry hamlet]

the run is a bug on the scar-h. one save after that animation happens and you get a crash

loud pulling out weapons?

what volume do you play on breh

[lament jasper]

take for example ak-104 alpha

it just sounds dumb

[night gull]

me after a rade:

there also happened to be some emission in the middle of it

there were about uhhhhh idk how many bandits

probably about 6 or so

and some stalker bodies too (not lootet until i did)

i rushed

[bright peak]

Are you playing on 800x600?

[night gull]

yep..

[bright peak]

Damn

[wintry hamlet]

both bandits and mercs are easy loot for loners, if you have anything that can shoot through their armors at least

[night gull]

potato pc

[night gull]

me who had just PMm and some kind of sniper without piercing ammo:

i used the sniper atleast TWICE

for 2 ppl

but that's basically it

[night gull]

actually lemme try to change it
might lagg a bit more once it is changed but...hey,higher perfomance

[bright peak]

What's your specs?

[night gull]

Good question

I have...no idea

[bright peak]

[wintry hamlet]

[bright peak]

I mean if it's working and you are happy with it (even 800x600 in that case) there should be no problem.

[night gull]

Wait

Wait a minute

[wintry hamlet]

i would not be able to tell what am i even looking at in that resolution

[bright peak]

I remember those old days where I was playing old DayZ with my laptop integrated GTX260

[night gull]

It works with 1280x600 too

[wintry hamlet]

thats an upgrade

[bright peak]

Still 600 p you get more screen thats nice

[solar nebula]

Almost HD!

[night gull]

Yes indeed

Also the sniper is VERY useful to me so im keeping it

[bright peak]

A little bit sharpening should do the trick but I'm not sure which GPU you have

[night gull]

Neither but
Lets hope it can take it

[bright peak]

You can sharpen a bit using the GPU's own driver, I'm on AMD but I'm sure NVidia has it too?

[night gull]

Its a laptop :3

[bright peak]

Let's hope it's not intel

[wintry hamlet]

it could still have a mobile gpu

from nvidia

[night gull]

yeah

[bright peak]

Ye, it can be an external gpu

[solar nebula]

Been some time since i last saw someone with integrated graphics lol

[night gull]

Lol

[wintry hamlet]

they still exist and are still a nightmare to use

[bright peak]

Ryzen's last ones are okay for 1080p light gaming but intel just yuck

[wintry hamlet]

[night gull]

It even works with

1280x720

But it laggs a bit...heh

[bright peak]

@night gull are you on Win10?

[night gull]

11

[bright peak]

O dam

[wintry hamlet]

[night gull]

Yes

[wintry hamlet]

why would you

[bright peak]

Dude is living in the future

[wintry hamlet]

its literally a downgrade

[bright peak]

Dude what CPU do you have what

[wintry hamlet]

and might as well be worse for fps

[bright peak]

It allowed you to upgrade to win11

[wintry hamlet]

yea thats a good question

[night gull]

It is ueah

I forgor where to see the Specs

[wintry hamlet]

settings>this pc>about

at least in win 10

not sure about 11

[night gull]

Right thanks

Also

1

XD

Windows one

M yes we all know it

[wintry hamlet]

[night gull]

So the RAM is uh

4,00GB

There

The CPU

[deft blaze]

How do you function on 4 GB of ram

[bright peak]

You shouldn't be on Win11

[night gull]

Intel(R) Pentium(R) Silver N5000 CPU @ 1.10GHz

[bright peak]

System alone useing so much ram

WTF

HOW

[wintry hamlet]

what the

[night gull]

And this is a fucking work PC

[wintry hamlet]

how does it have win 11 tho

[deft blaze]

You ACTUALLY launched Anomaly with GAMMA on this?

[bright peak]

That PC is a fucking nordic ruin

[night gull]

Yep..

[deft blaze]

And it works???

[night gull]

It does

After 13 hours of work

[bright peak]

Props to that pentium ffs

[night gull]

Yes

[deft blaze]

I'm amazed

[night gull]

Welp i guess i can only say
Technology got the best of me?

Lol idk

[bright peak]

You prolly gotta go back to Win10, even 7.

10 should be better compatibility overall for games but still

[night gull]

Ye

What if i do reinstall it to 10?

[deft blaze]

With 4GB I'd either use 7 or Linux

[bright peak]

There should be roll back option

[night gull]

Aye will do

But

[wintry hamlet]

just careful with doing that

[night gull]

What about the data?

[wintry hamlet]

better research it first

make sure it wont ruin anything

[night gull]

Yeah

[bright peak]

https://www.windowscentral.com/how-roll-back-windows-10-if-windows-11-preview-acting

its kinda old but?

[turbid pond]

Just install Windows 10 LTSC

[night gull]

Will data go lost?

[turbid pond]

aka the windows ATMs run

[bright peak]

I don't think the data will be lost, you can choose the option to keep everything

[turbid pond]

only the data in the drive where windows is installed if you install it correctly

[night gull]

Aye
Well i guess imma just do a roll back lol

[bright peak]

There will be windows.old folder in the drive you installed windows which contains all the documents etc you had.

[turbid pond]

you still need to reconfigure apps like steam, browsers

[bright peak]

But read everything when you try to do. Windows warns you about the things you'll lose.

[bright peak]

You can actually take your appdata from windows.old and paste it. Not sure if it works but still

[turbid pond]

screenshot

[night gull]

Hmmm

It popped up a window

Saying "delete updates"

[bright peak]

Do you have SSR shader on in ReShade?

[turbid pond]

yes

[bright peak]

We better continue this in #╟❓general-offtopic tho

[night gull]

Yes

Yes we should

[hybrid summit]

[turbid pond]

I went in there hoping i would find a dvl but nop

[turbid pond]

Damnn, impressive

[night gull]

M yes

Telekinesis

[sacred stag]

Well guys

I'm gonna travel to Wild Rostok, gonna decept others to thinking that I'm a Loner.

Lol

[bright peak]

You won't be decepting us

[sacred stag]

Haha, you think? Hang on, lemme get my camera on.

hehe, my sel-fucking-fire

[bright peak]

This is an actual nice #931238326172794881 message tho.

[sacred stag]

heh

[bright peak]

Nice lighting

vanilla?

[clever badger]

ty its just enhanced shaders that come with gamma and reshade gi

[clever badger]

Ol`reliable

[random shard]

is this gun any good? it's from someone with a sight problem so I don't trust this gun.

it looks sick though

[wintry hamlet]

i cant figure out if you are joking with the second part but yes its probably the best 556 gun

[dark brook]

Best 5.56 yes

[random shard]

repaired, yes it's so good. the fire rate and accuracy

I FKIN love this game

[turbid pond]

storm

[random shard]

Limansk?

[turbid pond]

yes

the monoliths finally entered the house while i was going back and fourth trying to catch the flash and the guy had this on him

[random shard]

I know nothing about guns but this looks even sicker

[turbid pond]

and this in his inventory

rpk pog

[random shard]

you've ruined a happy monolith's fat looting day for sure

[turbid pond]

my character said "opachki" when i examined that rpk

[wintry hamlet]

this and the hera are the best 556 assault rifles in stats, they each have their positives

in the end its either you want the integrated scope or the 60 round mag

[turbid pond]

and day comes as i slept next to two dead bodies

edited the enb so it doesnt look glossier as before

[random shard]

colors are more saturated

looks too happy to me. I like my zone grey and depressed

[turbid pond]

i mean the effect i use that changes the whole color is PPFX SSDO

pp

[random shard]

fit the theme

[turbid pond]

OOH HE HAD ALL THOSE WEAPONS IN HIS INVENTORY

because while i was trying to catch the storm flash screenshot he was looting the people i killed

lmao

[random shard]

what is "but warm" mean

overheated?

[turbid pond]

i think when you shoot it alot the barrel overheats

[random shard]

fine...

[turbid pond]

but how because i picked it up like 7h ago ingame time and went to sleep

been warming me thru the nights

[bright peak]

Dude was gonna stash his friends' loot to the nearest bush so they could take them back when they respawn

[turbid pond]

ooh wait another squad is coming in from the right on the screenshot

i died just like the loser i am

and now they didnt spawn/come?

[bright peak]

You'll get them next time

[torpid mauve]

too much blue

[turbid pond]

but now that i look at the map better

they spawned out of the map?

because to my right theres nothing but a fence and no way of getting past it

infact im stuck trying to find my way

[bright peak]

You got xray'd

[turbid pond]

i got through a street but THERES AN INVISIBLE WALL

[bright peak]

Ye that happens

Zone doesn't want you to lose your way

[turbid pond]

dude im still on the 1st quest and i have killed so many

went through hell and im still nowhere close to my destination

[bright peak]

If you wanna see hell, advance north

Stop by red forest

[turbid pond]

command is gonna be pissed because ive been slackin

[bright peak]

Command left us remember?

[dark brook]

I'm fucking thirsty bro

Merc base is full of sweaty skinny mercs

All thirsty, all hungry, all wanting their fucking free space

[bright peak]

Never played with Tarkov voiceovers as they sound so clean and quality. But played enough Tarkov to got used to them so yeah. Apart from "nice job bitch" gets really boring and I hope I'll never learn Russian so i can enjoy these vanilla voiceovers

[torpid mauve]

Never played

[gilded schooner]

I have tarkov voices. I teacher teenagers and they sound the exact same. "I"M SO FUCKING TIRRRRRRRRREEEDDD"

[bright peak]

They only complain

[gilded schooner]

I preferred the FEAR ones

[clever badger]

rip

[coral sable]

Connection Lost

[dark brook]

Yes I'm considering them

[random shard]

red dot sight became too huge when NV is on is this intended or is there a workaround?

[sacred stag]

Looks like it's intended.

[random shard]

same for laser
