nah i haven't seen yours

[torpid mauve]

oh boy

check this out

early access to gamma rc5

#╟📸screenshots message

[clever badger]

why does this look like it was taken from a shitty mobile game

is that actually playable?

[torpid mauve]

dunno

just turned it on for a screenshot at the moment

liked the glow on the hud numers tho

[clever badger]

the hud looks sick but the insane lens flare does not

https://tenor.com/view/bright-light-george-kusonoki-miller-joji-upgrade-song-flare-gif-18664862

[hybrid summit]

lauta_ro really do have GAMMA RC5 considering the fact that every screenshot he take is always a different game

[runic stag]

fr

dude has like 10 different graphics setups

[torpid mauve]

in the end, the truth for the best graphics was revealed to me

vanilla

[clever badger]

this one is one of your best screenshots

am a bit jealous, wish i could get video game to look like that

[runic stag]

great swamps my beloved

prolly gonna turn the bloom down just a tad, during days like #╟📸screenshots message it's kinda overwhelming

[clever badger]

what is up with all these people posting screenshots where their game is blood red?

[desert sphinx]

Movin on up, scavenging has been more fun since I started Gamma

[rustic orbit]

is ecologist fun?

seems like it could be kinda boring at times

[desert sphinx]

For me it's pretty chill

[clever badger]

looks great other than being a bit bright, i'd go for slight tweak and i think you would be golden

[runic stag]

i wish i could have it looking good at all times 😦

[desert sphinx]

Only have to worry about bandits, tho if I take up assassination missions of other factions, I can attempt to disguise as a merc when I perform a hit

[clever badger]

#╟📸screenshots message my game looked like this for awhile while i fixed it, do not worry my friend

[runic stag]

[clever badger]

game is weird when it comes to shaders. they can either look amazing or horrible

there is no in-between most of the time

[desert sphinx]

I blame it on the zone

Zone works in mysterious ways

[clever badger]

I like first one but it's a little bit too saturated

[clever badger]

gonna fix this shiz in the morning

[dark brook]

way too dark

[timber rover]

Agreed

[outer grove]

⬜

[clever badger]

i think it's the fake.hdr setting. just looks ugly

[runic stag]

fake HDR just makes it more contrasty

pretty wack imo

[clever badger]

messed with it a littles so it doesn't destroy my eyes

[harsh coral]

Too gold

[clever badger]

i agree, it's the contrast

[jovial cedar]

That one is looking great, and so does your last picture

However, it feels more fitting in Autumn settings

[timber rover]

if this is a reshade I would use a prod80brightnesssaturationcontrast filter bring up the brightness a tad and increase exposure and then bring saturation down by a smidge and it will bring the image to be much more clear at least imo

I like the gold aesthetic it has so I would try and keep that

feels like a dead air kinda vibe to it

[clever badger]

lemme try this

[timber rover]

give it a go and lets see

[timber rover]

much nicer

at least to me

[runic stag]

🟥

[clever badger]

too red?

[runic stag]

for my liking, yeah, but if you like it i'll let u rock

[clever badger]

nah all feedback is good feedback

just trying to come up with my own shader set to share 😈

[timber rover]

bring up some more gamma

brighten her up

[runic stag]

put some more gamma in yo gamma

[clever badger]

what we got

[timber rover]

oof

gamma needs to go up and saturation down to like 1.05 or 1.1

or even 1

reshade can do that for you if you want saturation

it's just too dark

[clever badger]

u right

[timber rover]

is that a foggy/cloudy weather?

[clever badger]

yes, going into night also

[timber rover]

thats good then

[timber rover]

what does midday clear look like?

[clever badger]

Oh let me turn on debug and check

Gimme like 10 mins

Am walking da dog

[clever badger]

YO

What is that bro, gimme your reshade settings

[runic stag]

It's built off Majestic WeatherFX and it's shaders so if you're gonna try it, you'll need to install that, but here you go ❤️

This game looks so stunning with G.A.M.M.A., really glad i found out about it, and congrats on the awesome modpack and the modding community overall, been playing it for a while, and i can see myself sinking much more hours into it.

How does one use / install this?

[runic stag]

drop it into your anomaly/bin folder, press home in-game and select the Majestic - Movie preset

[reef fog]

cheers

[runic stag]

[clever badger]

i only shot him how did he get crushed like that?

[desert sphinx]

The zone works in mysterious ways

👻

Really do like some of the new anomaly finds in this

[desert sphinx]

NVG scope is pretty neato so far, shame base anomaly didnt have these properly implemented on some of the rifles but do appreciate how it works here.

[jolly lark]

Finally got expert tools ...

[runic stag]

[jolly lark]

I feel like I'm too op now

[quiet cradle]

there is always that time in gamma

[clever badger]

the last stash in outskirts had expert tools! finally!

[desert sphinx]

its a miracle

[clever badger]

i hope i didnt hit 40 stashes without expert tools as i had 7 or 8 in outskirts and got about 30 in other places like red forest Jupiter and so on

[dark brook]

55 days

[outer grove]

Only 144 stashes searched though.

2,6~ stashes per day on average.

[clever badger]

139 stashes found before expert tools

[jolly lark]

i found mine in last stash in ourskirts too

Eheh, was talking about the aspect ratio

[dark brook]

Best 7.62x51 gun congratulations

[random flame]

my fault. Yeah, i do like it that way. Dunno why...

[clever badger]

ohh i found sr-25 too but didnt repair it no laser or alternative sights so repaired different gun with them of 7.62x51 caliber didnt knew its best gun

[dark brook]

No laser but best accuracy. Use a specter for alternate sight

[clever badger]

thanks for tip ill play around with my current one before repairing sr-25

[west flint]

help me find this stash pls

[clever badger]

i think its that short tunnel in front of butcher not sure

[proper tapir]

I love that sky blue, how do i make it?^^

[runic stag]

believe that comes with majestic weatherfx

though i don't know for sure if he's using it

[jovial cedar]

@proper tapir This sky comes with Gamma weather as well, a certain time of the day in the morning

Clear2 - 7AM

Not quite the same maybe

(Ha, forgot to push the grass setting)

[rough spindle]

Hey, that's a new reshade preset that i'm working on. Specially design for gamma weathers... I'm just waiting for Gamma 1.0 to release it.

Grok, please don't change the weathers & Dynamic tonemap settings. lol

[runic stag]

day count is inflated, probably like 15-20 days, still shit but holy fuck was that ever challenging

miss me with that ironman shit

[red spoke]

@runic stag r u using the auttum textures

The majestic weatherfx mods is so nc

So realistic

Looks like tarkov

[runic stag]

i'm using simple autumn retexture desaturated

[red spoke]

Looks great

But your sun looks too bright

R u using more bloom effect

[runic stag]

im using the bloom that comes with majestic along with ambient light

[dark brook]

Not planning to. I'm just curious about the difference between standard gamma Reshade and yours xD

[jovial cedar]

Ha, that one reminds me of the compilation I made quite a while ago around the mod simple Autumn retexture x)

[red spoke]

Turn off bloom or reduce u still can see the beautiful sun ray

[rough spindle]

I can send you the files if you want to see it. NP

[clever badger]

i might be hoarding too much this is just about 400 pieces of 5 different parts

[quasi oak]

It's a bit too cold though, trees are grey. Autumn should look a bit warmer. But it sorta looks cool. No pun intended lol

[clever badger]

there is no too much

[clever badger]

well all of these are at 0% condition and i kept about 20 of each in best condition

i changed my mind

and sold a bunch

stop hoarding

smh

[clever badger]

i think he is too scared to lift his gun against me

[bright peak]

Or giving you a chance

[clever badger]

another one

wait what more are coming stopping and not shooting me what is going on?

[runic stag]

Blame it dynamic tonemapping, I'll probably disable it and tweak the settings a bit

[high shore]

if you spot this guy again in spaghetti mode can you send me the visual ID? I swear ive edited the model 5 times and it still happens

[clever badger]

sure

[high shore]

thanks

[tawdry quiver]

what are yoour reshade settings, please?

[dark brook]

Show me #╟📸screenshots and I will be happy. You can use juxtapose.js to show default gamma Reshade vs yours

[rough spindle]

Nice! didn't know about juxtapose.js. Thank you! I will think about the comparison shots. I have custom shades, luts & effects... So, that will be tedious. Is not turn on a preset, and change to the another. I need the whole reshade folder for Gamma & another for Scavenger. There's a way to do that? Two instances of reshade at once?

[dark brook]

you can switch profiles ?

[rough spindle]

? Install Gamma reshade + his own folder of shaders in overwrite. And the Scavenger directly in the bin folder? perhaps?

will try that

[dark brook]

install scavenger effects over gamma, and save the scavenger config in a new ini then switch between gamma and scavenger ini in game ?

[rough spindle]

Like i said, the problem is i'm using different effects for the reshade. So if i overwrite your reshade with my stuff, yours will look different when I switch back to yours. You use a different LENS effect texture, Different Ambient Light effect. etc. Making your reshade look different. Sky mostly, yours will be super blue. Insanely blue. Not fair comparison

Two different folders is the way. Overwrite & directly on bin

[rough spindle]

Gamma with my reshade folder* I am pretty sure that's not ok

[torpid mauve]

lower saturation

[rough spindle]

No easy way to switch between the two. Reshade folder in Overwrite always wins

[rough spindle]

yep

Have to change the directories manually for each photo, my god

with gamma reshade folder

❤️

[jovial cedar]

Do you have a few more in other weathers/map/time of the day ?

The best selling point for a reshade is consistency

Morning/Day/Evening/Night
Clear/Rainy/Foggy/Stormy
Swamps/Cordon/Army Warehouses etc

Well, the showcase x)

[rough spindle]

That's gamma reshade, not mine.

Just the firts pic is with my reshade folder (not the .ini). Gamma looks weird with those textures & effects

[jovial cedar]

I usually back up the reshade folder, even the entire bin folder on the desktop, then delete the reshade to use another one

[rough spindle]

Yep, that's the best way to go.

Not an screenarcher btw. Just normal gameplay photos for reference

Still fighting with dynamic tonemap. But i dont wanna change weathers, or gamma defaults

[jovial cedar]

Fair enough, I should probably try doing some reshade as well to try but Gamma's one is fairly satisfaying already

[rough spindle]

so far... not bad. Different from gamma. Diversity. Skyrim community knows about it. "oh, now im going to play with X ENB with X thing..." and... well 10 years later.....

[rough spindle]

is my favorite... lol but shhh

and piknik's. Very well done too

[rough spindle]

Not so easy to master...

[jovial cedar]

True but I usually go blindly at this stuff x)

Until I like it

[rough spindle]

That's the spirit

[clever badger]

hey sorry i just saw this, i'm still tweaking at the moment but it's the expedition reshade but with a lot of changes

[fluid token]

I think it's a huge testament to how well GAMMA is optimized and put together that even on my craptop it looks this good

[runic stag]

Did you push that grass slider ?

The holes between patches are giving me anxiety

[torpid mauve]

[runic stag]

i'd rather keep my frames

[hybrid summit]

Now this is a screenshot

Finally

Bravo

[jovial cedar]

What the hell is even that ?

xD

Doesn't hold a candle to your previous shot

[hybrid summit]

I prefer this instead of the other one

It's literally something else instead of the usual gun in the air + sun

[jovial cedar]

I usually do the no gun version x)

But true, it's always the damn sun x)

[hybrid summit]

It's always the damned scenery

We don't have stuff like that ever

Good photo, I like it, 10/10

[jovial cedar]

But isn't it from the mod with the piano ?

[hybrid summit]

Make a main menu out of it

[jovial cedar]

Easy enough x)

I can make it for you tomorrow if you're serious x)

[runic stag]

[clever badger]

what da helll

[jovial cedar]

Not my words really, just from the meme I can't post if I don't want to die x)

[jovial cedar]

Wish I could see that in real life x)

[clever badger]

i did have something similar happen expect instead of an emission sky there was a rainbow

[jovial cedar]

Not quite the same intensity

[red spoke]

What preset r u using

I like rally preset or clean tonemap

[runic stag]

custom

[gleaming siren]

he had a long day

[tawdry quiver]

Ah, no problem! You got it working for Gamma? Wold you share it?

[hybrid summit]

I just need to put it next the other Majestic files for Reshade, right?

[hybrid summit]

Send it here, I swear I'll pin it, it will be like a final answer to the "can I play Expedition with GAMMA?"
I'll answer "no you can't but check this out"

[jovial cedar]

Beautiful shots

[runic stag]

Yessir, next to the other presets

[quasi oak]

Those helmets with goggles always remind me of those WW2 military motorcyclists

[random flame]

Wow, l love your custom preset. Superb Job!

[clever badger]

Agrhrhhfh majestic weather content doesnt look valid

[clever badger]

this anomaly sent flesh flying across the map and left dog floating mid air

the rebounder anomaly on the right barely visible

[runic crow]

Rebounder is one of the cool anomalys I've found

That and the time one

[dark brook]

Tried my best

[clever badger]

emissions always look amazing

[clever badger]

couldnt reach the stash so used a psiudogiant to do that

[jovial cedar]

May I ask what's your setup here ?

[gleaming siren]

1 grass density, volumetric sun lighting on, and a modified GAMMA preset with arcane bloom and DELC_Sharpening on

[jovial cedar]

So it's still the same graphic settings ? Autumn No leaves + Gardener of the Zone ?

[gleaming siren]

yep

[jovial cedar]

That's noted then, I'll try something on my own as well

[clever badger]

beautiful sunset on low settings

[clever badger]

Gotcha, I’ll tweak one or two more things then send it.

[clever badger]

Grass shadows ON vs OFF

https://tenor.com/view/glare-cant-see-blurred-vision-gif-15278830

[torpid mauve]

could be the weather and textures

[outer grove]

Yes. It is also cherry-picking because you are looking directly down on the ground where the shadows don't overlap.
Try standing on a hill looking toward the horizon.

[runic stag]

still can't see them

[outer grove]

[rough spindle]

lol

[bright peak]

GPU is like

[runic stag]

the difference is crazy

so is the fps difference though

[outer grove]

What's the FPS-reading from this setting?

[cunning bison]

-100

[rough spindle]

it looks good enough for me without shadows

[outer grove]

Looks good for me =/= Looks good for everyone

[torpid mauve]

with grass shadows 70

without 80, around 10 fps difference, but keep in mind that this is in debug mode spawn, means 0 population

[rough spindle]

ouch

[outer grove]

It's a bit of optimisation for those who need it.

Good to know.

[torpid mauve]

yea i need to upgrade cpu

You have to type

In the console

And then vid_restart

Who shot up the flea market? Its a bloodbath back there.

[gleaming siren]

duty military were both fighting loners

not sure why, but after all the military were killed the loners started sneaking up and blasting the duty guys in the flea market, which caused the duty guards at the checkpoint to show up and clean them up

free loot for me

[desert sphinx]

yep

shame that stray bullets not intended to hit someone else draws aggro, causes a lot more infighting than it should

more loot is never a bad thing tho

[jovial cedar]

That looks amazing! How?

also my game seems to look very gray and bland

How did you end up taking this? I sitll can't find a inspect weapon keybind

its disabled by default in gamma, find the inspect disabler in mo2 and untick it

or you can stand idle and wait for the inspect to play by itself

not yet at that lev... an update is released "even more building and now you need to set up defenses at bases you care about to keep the traders and important npcs safe while also fighting off attacks from mutants and other enemy factions"

[dim sierra]

For modding community of stalker, there is nothing possible

[normal heron]

can't wait to collect the 6 infinity artifacts and build the emission generator

Thanks chaps

[jovial cedar]

As far as I know, it did the same before but on the other face of the building here, so reverting will probably don't do anything in that case

[clever badger]

yep, its just the building, it looked like that for me too on older versions

[jovial cedar]

@dark brook Here is it, sometimes it gets worse like the picture that was shown above but it's always that one building in Meadow

Other than this one, nothing similar happens

[jovial cedar]

Yup, it's always that one building

[dark brook]

I reverted the SSS changes anyway

[clever badger]

well i always slap the newest one on anyways so eh lol

[jovial cedar]

Yup, gonna do the same, the pictures I took were actually with update 7

[clever badger]

the versions look almost the same anyways

[dark brook]

oh?

[jovial cedar]

I did not update the game yet with the big update you announced

Since I was busy working on my stuff, so I still have the old one with the water veil

Another one

And I guess I still have update 7 if it was before the large update you pushed

Honestly I'll just revert the changes to update 8 again, not gonna throw away all the good stuff for that one building from a map I never go to anyway

[clever badger]

found a guy in spaghetti mode again how do i get visual ID you asked for?

[jovial cedar]

Point your crosshair at him

Esc

F7

Get info

@clever badger

You can take a screenshot of the info you get

You need debug mode though to do so

I think

[clever badger]

yeah it seem like

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, it's not an issue for me, it's always on

[clever badger]

is this what he needed?

[jovial cedar]

Nope, what else do you have ? It should have the word "visual"

It should look like this

[jovial cedar]

Yup, this is the one

[clever badger]

didnt click get info

[jovial cedar]

Well I did x)

[clever badger]

thanks for help

[jovial cedar]

This being said, you should post your spaghetti shot and this one with the ID in #old-bugs and ping Dux there

[clever badger]

ahh ok

Out of curiosity, is Dux looking for info on any and all spaghetti? Will keep an eye out for them, although I've only ever seen 2 of them so far

Latest one was a Fracture in Garbage, spahgetti'd between 2 trees

[jovial cedar]

I think yes, best bet would be to use debug to get the info from any spaghetti model you can find

[high shore]

I dont touch mutants, only other stalkers

[finite spear]

Gotcha, will keep an eye for stalkers then

[clever badger]

finally decided to sell silencers and tool kits and got just 360k

[runic stag]

[dark brook]

Yes it's a good source of money. Now buy AP ammo for 200k

[clever badger]

Well I already have 250kg of ammo stashed I think I don't need to buy more

For a while at least

[desert sphinx]

Yeah, they sell like hotcakes. Monolith is especially guilty of carrying all that sweet loot.

And you'll get a lot of gunsmith kits that you can swim in them

[rapid comet]

It's fucking miserable out here!

[bitter dagger]

A pseudogiant spawned in Cordon at the start of the game.

[dark brook]

it can very rarely happen

just run

[bitter dagger]

surprisingly the rookies managed to kill it eventually, 5 bodies later

[desert sphinx]

Time to loot

[runic stag]

a happy little accident

[fluid marsh]

Well, guess I'm not getting artifacts today

[torpid mauve]

Where is that sakarov model from?

[frosty vale]

Mono dude made quite a stretch

[wintry hamlet]

can you use debug to get the info of the model? dux is trying to find which model has that bug

[frosty vale]

oh shoot, hold on. How do you do that?
I would need to turn on debug right?

[wintry hamlet]

!debug

[humble pasture]

How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[wintry hamlet]

press f7 in game to open the menu

[frosty vale]

Then i just point on the model ?

[wintry hamlet]

point at it and click get info

screenshot the info and post it here or in #old-bugs i guess

[bright peak]

Maybe it's a feature

I saw that gatto

[wintry hamlet]

as intended

[dark brook]

Wooooow that's goddamn nice

[clever badger]

thats one huge rat

[desert sphinx]

The giant rat that makes all of the of the rules

[clever badger]

ummm hate to bring this to you but axe got thirsty and went chop chop on that rat

guess chopping over 10 renegades wasnt enough for it

[jovial cedar]

The Zone will probably make you pay for that sin

[bright peak]

@tepid basalt sighted irl

[clever badger]

all you can eat mutant chops bar is open here is the menu: some burrers and dogs a bloodsucker chimera ghoul and bunch of cat with snorks and zombies

[bright peak]

[clever badger]

ohh we got new delivery of 2 burrers 3 ghouls and a few zombified

and for desert a karlik

[bright peak]

[clever badger]

and we keep getting more zombies and zombified a ghoul with special 4 snorks cooked in electro

anyone who is late dont worry we got more snorks with zeds and even 2 pyro porlterghast!

[tepid basalt]

Oh shit they found the model I bribed Grok to edit in.

R.O.U.S

[clever badger]

[runic stag]

Enjoy the new axe sounds

[coral sable]

The Shaders are fantastic!

[small vessel]

Hello I just installed the default game (GAMMA and all the sutff), it works well, thanks for this masterful work btw.
I played some stalker games before (Shadow of Chernobyl), and Call of pripyat (Misery mod too), but i'm not very good at modding.

Any advice or pack of addons that you guyz use to increase the graphics of GAMMA ? (i mean reshade and HD textures smthg like this)

[runic stag]

I highly recommend the Majestic Weatherfx pack, looks really good

(not sponsored)

[jovial cedar]

My man doing the publicity whenever possible

[runic stag]

I am not being held at gun point to promote Majestic Weatherfx I swear

[jovial cedar]

So far you've tried it with Gamma's actual graphics only ?

Or any other retexture ?

[small vessel]

Yeah, quite good but I'm searching for some more

[clever badger]

bloodsucker just running inside the base and no one cares

[runic stag]

I did and it looked okay but I wanted more vegetation so I turned off the 'dead zone' mods, it was too vibrant for me

so i settled with the desaturated simple autumn retexture

[jovial cedar]

I was going to settle with either my Autumn repack, or Summer to Autumn

Because I got a bit tired of the actual settings x)

[small vessel]

Are they all compatible ? Like there is a season timeline ?

[jovial cedar]

Ah yes, a new member of the community xD

[small vessel]

Autumn retexture seems very nice

[runic stag]

[jovial cedar]

I'm actually based on that one to be honest

All compatible, nope, either one or the other, since they are touching the same

[small vessel]

Okay so Autumn texture and majestic weather

[small vessel]

Makes sense

[small vessel]

Any pics to see how it is ?

[jovial cedar]

I did mix Simple Autumn Retexture & Autumn Dark

[clever badger]

wait i think i know whats going on here i heard somewhere that freedom are bloodsucker fuckers so that explains it

[jovial cedar]

Technically, not true, just Duty propaganda, but that's the wrong channel for explaining more x)

I'll take a few screenshots when I'll update GAMMA

Gonna try Majestic if it's all good with the latest update as well

@runic stag Is it though ?

[runic stag]

yes

[jovial cedar]

Even with the latest SSS ?

[runic stag]

i told Joe about the new SSS update and he made Majestic compatible w/ it

[jovial cedar]

What a brave soul

Kind love

Okay, let's get to work for some x)

I think I still have your file for reshade

[runic stag]

The first and third picture are a bit blue cause of dynamic tonemapping, so I highly recommend turning it off.

[small vessel]

Can i just drop the file to the mods and install it vanilla with MO2 or do i need to follow the 161341506153 steps before on modb ?

[small vessel]

Fucking nice

[runic stag]

but that's not how it looks by default, that's my own reshade setup

[small vessel]

mmmmhhh lot of annoying thing to set before to have this

[hybrid summit]

The one you already sent, right?

[clever badger]

now i got woken up by monoliths attacking the base...

[runic stag]

drop all the necessary mods into your mods folder, don't install them via MO2. also, it isn't that long of an install process, as long as your shader category in MO2 looks like this you're probably golden

don't bother with the soundscape overhaul 3 patch

redundant

[runic stag]

yessir

[hybrid summit]

[jovial cedar]

I'm gonna try as well with my old setup, see how it looks now

[small vessel]

Fart noise

[runic stag]

well yeah you gotta install the mods

Keep beef's, disable 188 and 190, redownload them and get all the files shown in my pic

but you'll also need to redownload beefs to get the 'Only ES no SSR' patch

[small vessel]

Dayum is it all in the majestic mod or I need to install or the other in the moddb page ? Where did u find all of these ?

[jovial cedar]

You should have it in your download folder

[runic stag]

Beef's NVGs
Enhanced Shaders
Screen Space Shaders
Majestic WeatherFX

the 4 mods you'll need

[small vessel]

God bless u man

[runic stag]

lemme know if you need anymore help

[small vessel]

So I just put them in " Downloads " in the Gamma RC3 and that's it ,

[runic stag]

i know some people have had trouble installing it

no, drop the folders into your 'mods' folder in 'GAMMA RC3'

with MO2 closed of course

[small vessel]

Oh !

[jovial cedar]

Quick question, why didn't you combine all the 01-02-03-04 folders in one ?

[runic stag]

cause that's how Joe had it setup, works fine that way anyways

[jovial cedar]

I'll try the "clean" way to see if it works

Having it this way is making me sweating profusely

[runic stag]

[jovial cedar]

I like ordered stuff xD

This is heresy to me xD

[small vessel]

I extracted the files (rar zip) to the mods folder, they dont pop on MO2

[jovial cedar]

You need the actual folders

Basically one named folder with "gamedata" inside

[runic stag]

yeah, open the zips and drag out the actual folders, all the folders with the same names as the ones in my picture

[small vessel]

Fuck

Did i fucked my game ?

[jovial cedar]

Nah

Just redo it the other way around x)

[small vessel]

Well i just extracted all the shit

[jovial cedar]

If you know what you extracted, just delete it

[small vessel]

CTRL Z best friend lol

[jovial cedar]

Sometimes it's not, I speak as a modder here xD

[runic stag]

ctrl z fucked me one too many times in file explorer

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, like it does destroy your files for no reason sometimes

[small vessel]

So what do I put in mods ? Just the "game data" folder of each ? They will all have the same names I dont get it

[runic stag]

no

[jovial cedar]

Also, are the default SSDO & SSR not working ? Hence the need for reinstalling ?

[runic stag]

put the folders NOT the gamedata folders

you could probably get away with using the SSS included in gamma but i just reinstalled it just to be safe

[jovial cedar]

Ah, time to go "experiment" mode

And what about Enhanced Shaders ? Same ?

[runic stag]

idk if gamma's comes with the color grading addon and corrected cubemaps soooo

maybe?

[jovial cedar]

Bouuh, bad prophet

You were the Chosen One 😢

[small vessel]

Ok they popped in MO2 but Weatherfix is with a "X" isnt recognized

[jovial cedar]

Because it's content is elsewhere now

[runic stag]

okay first of all

[jovial cedar]

You don't need that one anymore

[runic stag]

you have way too many patches

second, you don't have the actual majestic weatherfx main file

look at my picture and copy it 1:1

delete everything else that is not in my picture

[jovial cedar]

Damn, Sensei is irritated x)

[small vessel]

Mine arent in shaders but in " GAMMA Disabled "

[runic stag]

so drag them there

or rightclick > send to priority 190 or something

[small vessel]

Now it's cool

[runic stag]

no

the priority matters

copy my screenshot

remove these

[small vessel]

Okay

I'm missing 01 enhanced and 02 enhanced

[runic stag]

those are from enhanced shaders

that will also come with the Optional corrected cubemaps

[small vessel]

Okay done

[runic stag]

hit me with a screenie

[small vessel]

Missing majestic and beef

[jovial cedar]

Quick question Apollo, on your screen, Majestic Main is placed in the Shaders section of MO2 right ?

[runic stag]

yes

[jovial cedar]

So you disabled Gamma weathers altogether ?

Since it has priority

[runic stag]

no

[runic stag]

order is still incorrect

redownload beef's and get the ES no SSR patch

[small vessel]

Okay I get it, just one sec

[runic stag]

[bright peak]

yeah don't forget to hydrate

[runic stag]

it's a long process

[jovial cedar]

Done

[runic stag]

https://tenor.com/view/birdman-hand-rub-thinking-dance-gif-17449632

[jovial cedar]

Funny how in the main menu your reshade look yellow/brown x)

[runic stag]

yeah

[jovial cedar]

Also wanna know a fun fact ?

[runic stag]

the weathers dont work cause gamma's overwrite them?

[jovial cedar]

I didn't install anything else than appdata, the main one, and reshade x)

I put it last

[runic stag]

oh

[jovial cedar]

Or after at least

Gonna run around to see

I also disabled Gardener and Simple autumn

[small vessel]

Trying to get majestic again

[runic stag]

one last step

well two

you gotta delete your shader cache after

[small vessel]

Trying to download majestic again and Then Autumn after

[small vessel]

Where is it ?

[runic stag]

Anomaly/appdata

delete the entire shader_cache folder

[small vessel]

Okay, dowloaded Majestic again, do not pop in the Gamma disabled categoy in MO2

[runic stag]

well it will, just drag it to the shaders category

[small vessel]

Still missing the main file

[runic stag]

it's inside the zip

it'll probably be like zip/majestic weather/majestic weatherfx - main

[small vessel]

the fuck is this

Ok i just Copy paste the main folder to the mod gamma folder

[runic stag]

lmao

[small vessel]

it works

[runic stag]

drag the 'main' folder into your gamma rc3/mods folder

you'll also need to install the reshade files

[small vessel]

Tadaaaa

[runic stag]

the reshade files will go in your anomaly/bin

[small vessel]

Do i delete the cache first ?
How do I install the reshade next ?

[jovial cedar]

First, backup your bin folder

Somewhere safe

[small vessel]

done

[desert sphinx]

@elfin crown Used a save where I was in Yantar

[runic stag]

open the 'reshade files' folder, drop everything into your 'anomaly/bin' folder

shader cache you can delete at any point

the new cache won't be created until you launch the game again

[small vessel]

The reshade files folder from " Majestic " ?

[runic stag]

yes

[small vessel]

Okay done

[small vessel]

So now can I test it ?

[elfin crown]

Thanks my man

[desert sphinx]

np

[runic stag]

[small vessel]

Okay so same shit with Autumn atmosphere mod ?

[runic stag]

for that one, install it using MO2 and place it above/below the existing 'simple autumn retexture'

you might also want to disable 'grulag's dead bushes'

[small vessel]

Cant take any pic of the game but thank you a lot man this is working ! ❤️

[runic stag]

glad it works first try 😅

you're very welcome

[jovial cedar]

@runic stag Does it do that on the sides of your game with water ?

[bright peak]

Apollo to the rescue

[runic stag]

yeah

SSS issue I'd assume

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, thought so

[bright peak]

That happen with all screen space reflections, I mean all games

[jovial cedar]

Here is Gamma reshade though, with some tweaks

[runic stag]

that's true, all games have the same issue

so annoying

[bright peak]

As your screen cuts of from that point, those textures are also not rendered so no reflection

That's why ray traced reflections are just gasm

[jovial cedar]

The one issue I had with your reshade file was the interiors

[runic stag]

are you on dx8?

[jovial cedar]

Nope, that would be insulting my PC xD Joking, I'm on DX11

But I know it can be different for anyone's screen

[torpid mauve]

yeah the fix for that is ||enable grass shadows||

[runic stag]

these are my light settings btw, might help with the interiors idk

[bright peak]

Only game I saw tried to override that was Crytek's Hunt:Showdown where they simply reflect the latest frames from the horizontal cut point and make it not look like shit.

[runic stag]

https://tenor.com/view/vietnam-flashback-cat-gif-18770750

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, I'm usually on 1.3

I'm loving it

[runic stag]

[hybrid summit]

Majestic or Majestic with Apollo preset?

[jovial cedar]

Majestic with just a few tweaks to GAMMA Reshade

[hybrid summit]

Send

[jovial cedar]

Wait a minute, I need to find the file x)

Is G.A.M.M.A. Reshade named Reshade.ini ?

[runic stag]

no

[jovial cedar]

That would be the one

I found the right file

I'm gonna try a few stunts

[runic stag]

must be nice being able to use grass pfft

[jovial cedar]

This grass ?

[runic stag]

NO WHERE'D MY EMOTE GO

WTF

[jovial cedar]

The sheesh one ?

[jovial cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/seriously-laugh-laughing-you-serious-jk-simmons-gif-6107729

[north stratus]

not one

but two gunsmitthing tools

[small vessel]

I dont get how to install Autumn season redux mod

Can someone help ?

[jovial cedar]

#custom-textures message

[small vessel]

I dont get how to put it on MO2

I copied it in the mod folder, I tried to drag it in the program directly, it doesnt work

How I am supposed to get this in MO2 ?

[jovial cedar]

You can install an archive with the top left button below "file"

[bright peak]

Hi, my name is Eden and welcome to Jackass Stalker Edition

[small vessel]

It's a ".5" file. MO2 doesnt find it

[jovial cedar]

And I actually meant changing a few files xD

[jovial cedar]

Can I see you screen ?

[jovial cedar]

Ah, try changing the "5" to "rar" by renaming it

[bright peak]

I figured but first time I read that message, couldn't help but reminded me some stupid jumps around Zone and injuring, killing yourself thanks to that screenshot above it

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, seems like the perfect weather for people wanting to end everything in the Zone

[bright peak]

[jovial cedar]

Fun thing is, I actually discarded half of majestic weathers

[small vessel]

OKay it works thanks

Which one do I need ?

[jovial cedar]

01 & 04

I could be wrong, but you may try 01, 02 & 04 actually

And if you want the reshade with it, tick the last box as well

[small vessel]

I've BEEF it wont work with it

[jovial cedar]

Try following the instructions on the link above as well for placing it

[runic stag]

i can hear lautaro on his way to tell you to turn on grass shadows

[small vessel]

Ok I installed it, it works first time. I'm lucky af

[jovial cedar]

Somehow, this is with Grass shadow

I don't see much here xD

[runic stag]

yeah something isn't allowing them to show

lautaro said what it was but i forget what they said

#╟📸screenshots message

it's probably majestic

[small vessel]

Thank you mates for your precious help @runic stag @jovial cedar

[torpid mauve]

I LOVE GRASS

[runic stag]

[jovial cedar]

So what is it that prevent Grass Shadows ?

[jovial cedar]

The new Far Cry is looking good

[torpid mauve]

jungleee

[jovial cedar]

I have to say, it's a refreshing change

What's your setup here ?

[torpid mauve]

on my way to edit npc models, to make them 8 feet so i can see them

[jovial cedar]

I'd like to try that version x)

[torpid mauve]

majestic weather + reshade, some dead zone textures, and vanilla trees/grass

[jovial cedar]

Ah, for some reason, our setups are like the extreme opposite xD

[jovial cedar]

You should consider sending these screenshots to the author

[torpid mauve]

[jovial cedar]

I have become you

I am fucking playing Far Cry

[torpid mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/farcry3-vaas-island-insanity-49685-gif-13374786

[jovial cedar]

Well, I know how to make stuff green now

[jovial cedar]

Still prefer the brown

[fluid marsh]

This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them!

[jovial cedar]

Aaaaaaxe

[hybrid summit]

Send

[jovial cedar]

Let me retrieve that one, because I deleted folders xD

Again, I did the same as I did for Autumn, so you won't like it anyway x)

I followed lauta_ro setup above, swapped Majestic for Autumn Redux Weathers, load_cfg grass + load_cfg majestic, and then tweaked Gamma Reshade

This one should be the last I had before deleting, might need a little tweak here and there but you have it x)

Different setup than the previous one of this kind

[dusty pike]

these farcry pictures are so beautiful.

[bright peak]

Even Ubi couldn't manage this visual ha

[runic stag]

emote retrieved

[jovial cedar]

Yayy

[lost moon]

best version this time, I swear

[torpid mauve]

chimera my beloved

[clever badger]

time for second try of npp with axe only because i forgor strelok in bar

[bright peak]

Homeboy using blinding bloom to it's advantage. Mfs learn

[clever badger]

big shinny rock!

[outer grove]

⬜

[clever badger]

i did end up with over a 100 nades after streloks quest in npp

[jolly lark]

that happened to me too, grok is nerfing nade spawn soon

[jovial cedar]

Before or after the update regarding the grenades in inventory ?

[clever badger]

Haven't updated game yet

[clever badger]

It should been vodka!

[clever badger]

a new monster spoted! floating dog head!

[nocturne geode]

HAHA Trophy mutants heads mods when!!!

put a chimera head there

[runic crow]

Getting stuck with a pseudodog and no meds is not an ideal situation

[jovial cedar]

And here you are trying to shot whatever is showing on the door to get damage xD

@hybrid summit I don't know if you remember well that weather mod, but it doesn't seem as dark now that I modified it, it's rain2 and it was infamously dark at 8am on the original

And here it is at peak afternoon

[clever badger]

black and white setup

[jovial cedar]

Yup, it was a particularly greyish day, but more like not much colors on screen x)

[clever badger]

it does look fitting! 😄

[jovial cedar]

Thanks, I'm trying multiple styles

[clever badger]

a lot of these look good but are actually unplayable lol

cuz u cant see shit

[jovial cedar]

Truth is, it looks clearer in game

[clever badger]

yea but still, the engine cant handle details in shadows so everything is just dark as shit and tall grass just fucks you too

[jovial cedar]

Well, shadows are really depending on weather honestly, while tall grass is just my setting, definitely not default 0.7 xD

[clever badger]

i mean yea, everybody can play how they want

i try to make it "realistic"

[jovial cedar]

On the rainy pictures above, I don't any problematic shadows

[clever badger]

so clear weather is bright and colorful

[jovial cedar]

The problem with realistic is that you will not be able to do so without a lot of modifications

[jovial cedar]

And even then, the engine is still dated

[clever badger]

my pc can handle it lol

[jovial cedar]

You got me curious

Go on

[clever badger]

i didnt do much a lot tbh, i just use a custom majestic fx reshade from the filmic preset, turned on grass shadows, made it a little brighter and yea thats kinda it lol

im still unsure if i should use dynamic tonemapping or not
