[shadow sapphire]

@carmine wyvern I understand that a bit, however with crafting being the real only way to acquire weapons and armor I understand the decision to just unlock them except Exo batteries.

[lusty talon]

For some very strange reason I keep dropping my equipped items at random times. Mostly I will randomly drop my backpack, but I just managed to somehow lose my pistol which was equipped in the secondary slot. I checked all keybindings for dropping items in the menu, but I have these unbound, unless I missed something. I also dropped off the quick release system in the stash so I don't accidently use it. Anyone has any idea why am I randomly dropping my items along the way?

[shadow sapphire]

@lusty talon are you using any of the optional mods, or any mods you added?

[desert remnant]

hey is there a recommended game setting by the devs for the g.a.m.m.a. experience? gameplay and progression difficulty settings and such

[lusty talon]

@shadow sapphire All the changes I made after installation are as follows: Increased my damage dealt, turned on infinite stash space in the mod organizer and turned on infinite bolts like in vanilla.

[desert remnant]

playing fresh install

[lusty talon]

I have 327 addons active in the mod organizer

[visual dirge]

You are dropping by pressing Shift. Check MCM settings.

[lusty talon]

@visual dirge Checking

[visual dirge]

G.A.M.M.A. Press Key to Drop Item --mod

[carmine wyvern]

all the setting that are on by default when you first start the game are made by the DEV

[desert remnant]

ah fair

it looked like vanilla settings

i did notice mutant population was down tho

I'll just start on highest difficulty settings in the create screen and see how it goes

[lusty talon]

@visual dirge Nothing is bound to Shift in MCM settings. Drop item is bound to Mouse4 now, but nothing happens when I press Mouse4

So I guess I should disable this?

[carmine wyvern]

highest difficulty is master

which has to be enabled via console

[visual dirge]

Check mcm for keys conflicts

[lusty talon]

@visual dirge There's a lot of conflicts 😅

I will see about resolving all of those and see how it goes afterwards. If the problem persists I will write here again. I also disabled Press Key to Drop Item in Mod Organizer. Thanks for the help./

[autumn lodge]

is there a reason when i load into gamma the game world is black but the UI/HUD is completely visible/interactable?

[visual dirge]

!blackscreen

i can still throw on gear and shoot weapons

[lusty talon]

Also does anyone have any idea why the "Teleport companion" keybind doesn't work for me? They really like getting stuck

[brisk zinc]

Because you need to enable the mod

[lusty talon]

@brisk zinc Thank you

[desert remnant]

for the magazine mod, I can't reload by pressing r and I have to manually click and drag the mags in my inventory

am I doing something wrong?

[graceful rover]

yes

!magazines

!mags

[raw raft]

If you just updated GAMMA, you use MagsRedux, you can't find ammo on dead stalkers and (maybe) you have this in your crashlog: mag_aug_9x19_default (you probably do if you're reading this): #╭📖faq message

[desert remnant]

well im not having any of those issues

I guess I'll reinstall the mag addon

[north turret]

You probably need to disable unjam reload

If you didn't

[desert remnant]

ah thank you will try

[thick python]

Everytime I try to setup a campfire it tells me "Surface does not suit". Is there anything I could do to make it work?

[north turret]

Can anyone tell me, or better yet show me, where exactly in Radar is Deadwood? I looked through the discord, but cant find info.

[north turret]

Have you checked if there are any MCM settings regarding this? Maybe you can tweak it to be able to place campfires anywhere.

[desert remnant]

is there a way to search mods by name in mo2?

hard trying to find by name through 326 mods

[thick python]

yes, there is a small box down right corner

[desert remnant]

ah

yeah mags redux even says to disable jam reload

rarted moment

[north turret]

It's the whole area of woods where the fallen helicopter is. If you're looking for artefacts one is on the chopper itself and the other one, well, it's hard to explain because I don't remember at the moment.

Its for the artifact quest chain

[thick python]

yes, but it still tells me the surface does not match, even tho the surface is totally flat and fine :/

[north turret]

If I am not mistaken they're here. The one on the choppa is 100% there.

[north turret]

Is it inside or outside? Tbh I've never ever placed a campfire before 😁

[thick python]

both doesn't work, regardless the settings

[north turret]

It should be configured in MCM by Grok but I am not sure. Though the author of the addon says the following: (Default radius of surface check is apparently too high, so change its in MCM to 1 or 1.5)

[thick python]

I played around with the settings and spammed the fire with the quickmenu (f4) until it worked, but ofc not where I wanted it.

I managed to place it by wildly swirling the mouse in the direction I wanted to place it. Did that + spamming f4 until I got nearly blind and then it placed the fire kiiinda where I wanted.

[north turret]

Well, that's strange... I'll need to try it sometime

[desert remnant]

one more question

about the limb health system mod

when I try to heal my limbs and I have the missing health turn yellow

the yellow just slowly depletes instead of refilling with white?

is there a secondary medicine I should be using on top of the regular med kits?

[brisk zinc]

That guide is for something else, it's not related to this issue

[brisk zinc]

[north turret]

if i disguise as an enemy faction for my target, kill them, leave and undisguise and come back will they be aggressive?

[tulip ore]

how long does it take you to increase your rank?

or is it rep based?

[north turret]

A bit longer than before. I have currently 16 days, 189 level changes, 347 killed stalkers and 540 mutants. I’m an expert at 29907

[thick python]

check the meds (yadulin for ex.) for a white heart symbol.

[north turret]

Basically rank increases with almost everything that you do like killing stalkers, mutants, completing tasks and etc.. It has been nerfed a bit and it’s noticeable. By day 16 I would have been a Legend already 😆

[tulip ore]

ye im about a week in and still rookie lmao

but granted ive been taking it slow

i just thought i was bugged

[north turret]

That’s pretty fine then. Once you get North and start smoking Sin and Monolith it’ll be a bit faster. Personally I think this is really fine the way it currently is

[timid jewel]

Can I turn off the voice of my playable character?

[north turret]

is there any good place to farm for a good exosuit?

[buoyant stump]

how often big gamma patches usually come out?

from what I'm understanding next one will also update the game so I assume it will take a while?

[desert remnant]

is there a way to reduce radiation just as a thing?

[graceful iron]

#📢announcements #📢development they were very frequent for a while but grok is working on one large update with less free time

[desert remnant]

cause Its hard to tell when im out of a radiation patch

[graceful iron]

wear a better gasmask ?

[desert remnant]

and then when you get high radiation after 10ish seconds you get permalocked in the rad zone

[buoyant stump]

I see, thanks

[desert remnant]

ah fair

[north turret]

medicine

[graceful iron]

you can also use radioprotectant

a lot of ways for dealing with radiation. just need to get better gear before going too far north

[desert remnant]

just doing a merc start and there's a radiation patch like 50m

out of the sports spot

[graceful iron]

you started with a gasmask ?

[graceful rover]

But step 3

[desert remnant]

no :*

:(

[graceful iron]

i highly recommend you either restart with one or debug one in

[graceful rover]

while the guide is for something else, in the end, it does solve the issue

[graceful iron]

you will get a really unpleasant experience with radiation otherwise

[brisk zinc]

You're half correct on that

But you need to specify that, because people will follow the entire guide, not just the step 3

[thick python]

whys my question gone..
what should I deactivate if I don't want my character yawning?

the tired symbol is enough

[brisk zinc]

Your message ended up in the middle of the drama, I had to delete everything and your message also disappeared

[thick python]

I see, np.

[severe shadow]

Is there something new in the damage system? I'm recieving apparently random limb damage and I can't understand why. Rads damaging limbs again?

[honest tendon]

is there a command to force update the trader inventory?

[brisk zinc]

Debug mode

Or you can sleep 24 hours

[novel dune]

I want Y to be my unjam button (I'm using mags so I can't have the same button for both reload and unjam). when I set unjam to be Y, it also adds/tears off the patch every time I press it. Where is that function set up? It is not in regular keybindings. I went through MCM but I can't find it.

[graceful iron]

its in the mcm. its named "function"

i think

[novel dune]

ahh, got it

"patches by hotkey" in MCM

I disabled it

[graceful iron]

okay

[buoyant stump]

so what factions usually roll around with a saiga 12?

looking for one

[tidal raft]

Imagine going to the exclusion zone without a respiratory filter.

Baaah.. It'll be fine.

[graceful iron]

random dead person. died of radiation in cordon

[clear vale]

Very random question but I thought about this

Does an emission/psy storm damage or wipe out the QRS stash?

[tidal raft]

QRS?

[rapid fractal]

any idea what causes my screen to change color spectrums depending on scopes as well as just random changing tones during weather
i turned off dynamic tonemapper and it still persists?
i sometimes get light shades of blue that change back after a few seconds while playing and it seems very out of place

[tidal raft]

High-contrast upgrade?

[clear vale]

Quick release system

[tidal raft]

No.

[rapid fractal]

i disabled my reshade and i believe it has to do with the effect for scopes maybe? cause it looks normal now when i ads, but sometimes when i look left to right my game almost brightens up and then back down unnaturally

[clear vale]

Oh gotcha

wow nice

[jade axle]

Hey guys, just got the army rifle repair kit
Any suggestions for some fun/good guns? I have too many rifles stashes away

Anyone know where the new exes are located?

I just reinstalled the whole thing and i have forgotten where they were

[clear vale]

C:\Anomaly\bin
right?

Or replace that path with your own to Anomaly

[jade axle]

Thank you gamers, any Warsaw Pact favourites?

[blazing basin]

There is 2 folders

no?

[clear vale]

Sorry, I don't follow

[blazing basin]

No like

[jade axle]

Could you send screenshots? I have my exes in there

[blazing basin]

i remember last time i copied the exe files from another fodler that was included with the install

then i moved them to bin

[clear vale]

Oh, hmm

[graceful iron]

the exes are in the modpack patches/bin

[clear vale]

You would find those in

Yes there

[blazing basin]

Oh thats the one

Thanks bro

Also do i copy all 3 folders or just bin?

Not sure if i need the new user.ltx file or not

[graceful iron]

depends on the issue

you can copy only the bin folder

[blazing basin]

Oh im just copying them cause im stuttering really badly when entering pripyat for the first time

Thought it might fix it

[violet condor]

is there a file one can make a copy of that saves all MCM configured addons you don't have to redo all addon settings after every major update?

[brisk zinc]

!backup

[raw raft]

"Why does every update completely reset my keybinds/my settings/my mods/my stuff in general?"
G.A.M.M.A. has a default mod list to make sure everyone has the same things, everything goes back to default when you update or you do a complete installation, it's normal.
You can backup your keybinds and mod settings following this guide: #╭📖faq message

[frank robin]

Is there a way to enable the darker outline/vignette around the screen for helmets? I'm using a gas mask atm so I'm assuming its either not a thing or it doesn't apply to this mask.

[crimson carbon]

Is it possible to find the PDF guide files (anomalies, characters etc.) somewhere else than in-game?

[sweet vale]

Does Dushman's armor exchange account for the quality of the armor?

like, if I turn in a wastelander suit, would I get a coyote in exchange, as opposed to a Jackal?

[warped ginkgo]

i think you will always get 1 type of armor, doesn't really matter what rank of armor you give him

[graceful iron]

he will give you the same condition on the armor that you gave him

wait... nvm. you were asking about the tier

if a gun looks like it has a laser on it, how do you use it? are lasers a thing in gamma?

Do the perk artifacts like Black Angel degrade when being used?

[graceful iron]

only junk artefacts degrade while equipped. radioactive ones dont

[north turret]

how can i reliably get nato guns if im playing clear sky?

almost all nato faction are friendly to clear sky

[minor star]

Disguise as an enemy faction and kill some people

[north turret]

thanks

this pretty much breaks my immersion

[warped ginkgo]

or just loot dead bodies

[north turret]

not that reliable

and not as funny

[buoyant stump]

this might sound dumb but do artifacts work inside a container? i mean the radioactive ones

and is the radiation a big deal

[graceful iron]

to use radioactive artefacts safely you need application containers. they still give both negative and positive stats

[green oar]

I have a stupid question that keeps bugging me, south of the rooki camp, is there a way to the great swamp or not? It is on the map but I can't seem to find the entrance

[graceful iron]

yes. its an underground entrance

you will need to follow the fence and then go around it

[green oar]

alright thanks! I'll try it

[terse sun]

how's the 5.56x45 stock with loner traders? Trying to decide between F90 and AK105 specialist and the ammo availability would probably be the decider

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual traders are NATO and WP. 556 is a NATO round and loners are a WP faction

you can get goodwill with clear sky or freedom to get the rounds from their traders

[terse sun]

nice, thanks 🙂

it's about time I make a ak105 playthrough anyways

[tulip ore]

whats the minimap keybind?

[brisk zinc]

\

Check in settings or MCM settings, you can change it somewhere

[terse sun]

oh another question from my side - can weapon kits only clean parts and not the barrel?

or is it that it only cleans dirty parts and not worn, even though my worn barrel in the gun is at 70%?

[buoyant stump]

i cant be bothered to go to the swamps for clear sky, where is freedom located?

[terse sun]

quote:

• If a gun has a barrel with a condition above 60% condition, you can buy a cleaning kit from mechanics and right click the gun > clean barrel. Same for other parts. It's an easy way to get good guns early since you can buy cleaning kit without any toolkits unlocked.

from the manual - so this should apply to a 70% condition worn barrel? no idea why I can't clean it and I'd like to avoid spending all 5 uses of my army rifle kit

I say something in between

it's not as annoyingly "realistic" as EFP is for example

[shadow sapphire]

@terse sun when you right click the gun go to maintain parts and you should have the option to clean it or replace it. Keep in mind you will have to do that for each part you want to be at 100

[terse sun]

I tried it first without the army rifle kit and only rifle cleaning kit (ak105) in my inventory and I had no "maintain parts" option at all

then with the rifle repair kit in the inventory the only option is to replace that barrel

and if I replace every other part and leave the barrel to be cleaned by that kit, the "maintain" parts then shows up but the dropdown menu is blank

weird

unless the kit really does require the part to only be "dirty", not "worn"

that's my only reasonable explanation

[shadow sapphire]

@terse sun yeah that would have to be, can you post a screenshot I'm just curious because it has worked for me fine with the cleaning kit in my playthroughs

[fresh plover]

is there a weapon inspection button and also what the button to unjam for some reason its not z

[shadow sapphire]

By default reload will also unjam

[brisk zinc]

Army Warehouse

[brisk zinc]

Yes there is one but you need to enable or disable the mod for it, I don't remember right now, it's in the mod list

I think you need to disable a mod in order to do that

If you're using Mags Redux it's a different thing

[terse sun]

ok so this is the gun and its condition

https://ibb.co/MnX7Zh9

[fresh plover]

no not using mags redux

[brisk zinc]

Don't quote me on this since it's late and all, but cleaning kits and repair kits are two different things

[fresh plover]

Alright thanks

[brisk zinc]

Cleaning kits... clean the part
Repair kits maintain (aka, replace) the part

[shadow sapphire]

@terse sun The barrel is at 50%

The 70% you were reading is how much damage it will do, if you look towards the bottom below the ammo you will see the parts and their durability.

[terse sun]

ah fml I was looking at the AP redux

yeah I see it now

[shadow sapphire]

No worries!

[fresh plover]

is it this one? @brisk zinc

[brisk zinc]

If you disable that, you'll be able to inspect the gun

The jam should be on R btw

Not Z

I don't know why you said Z

Also it's late here so don't listen to me

That mod is just something that disable the "inspect your gun on command" animation

You were asking about jamming

Press R when you have a jam

There is a mod that makes reload + jam on the same button

[fresh plover]

i was looking at the keybinds image

I messed up all the key binds now lol I like my default efp key binds

um wtf is a daddy token?

[clear vale]

Is it possible to change viewmodel fov but not camera fov at the same time?

Oh hud fov, I didn't realize it counted the arms as hud

[shadow sapphire]

@fresh plover Basically it a I feel I need a save, but not at campfire. You get one like every 5 minutes, but you only can have 1 stored up. So basically an emergency save away from a campfire.

[fresh plover]

ahhh ok i'm guessing no save scumming in this modpack?

[clear vale]

You can turn this off if you'd like

[shadow sapphire]

Up to you in a sense, there is a way to turn off campfire saves if you want to.

[fresh plover]

oh ok how do I do that just for future reference

so you can technically save scum to get what you want? :V

[brisk zinc]

...maybe

Try it and let me know

[buoyant stump]

yessir

[brisk zinc]

I don't think it works but try it

[terse sun]

shouldn't work because I always get the same loot no matter how many times I reload save

didn't test extensively though since I only reload when I die

[brisk zinc]

Yeah I thought so

[worn moat]

Which armour do I have to trade to get the ACE suit from mercenaries?

[terse sun]

btw what does the BR class in this game do? I thought this only counts towards the enemies?

or is it just for reference

forgot to mention I mean the BR class rating on the suit itself

[rancid gale]

Is set by gamma preferences something about mutants population for loner after fresh new game? So far I've only met those from the rookie village thanks to the quest.. Nothing else. My settings is 1 for population

and in ZCP is increased too

[terse sun]

I have it set @ 0.25 as it's stock and I'm encountering mutants all the time

[north turret]

i just wiped out an entire military base and im still rookie? how long does it take to rank up

[pseudo fog]

BR class (while I'm not sure what it stands for) is the "protection" level of the armor. Lets say you have a BR class of 25, and someone shoots you with a bullet that has a BR penetration of 30. The damage will go straight to your health. But if they shoot you with a bullet that has a penetration of 15, they have to break your armor before you take full damage. I'm pretty sure that's how it works? I definitely could have gotten something wrong.

[terse sun]

yeah I know but this is supposed to work in the direction of player->npc

probably this doesn't apply to my character?

I mean it would be neat if it did but..

[pseudo fog]

Ah, sorry I misunderstood. I'm not sure if that's how it works the other way around, but I'd guess it works similarly, but you'll take more damage if the projectile doesn't pierce your BR. At least that's what it feels like.

[rancid gale]

Its weird 😄 I need them for make some money because i just start new life 😄

[fresh plover]

whats the best way to get sleepy

On the flip side, are there better options for reducing sleep than caffeine pills? It barely rises

[real onyx]

so, ive got a repair kit for a shotgun I am trying to fix. I was hoping to swap out the bad barrel in that gun with a better condition one. When I open the workbench it doesnt give me the option to swap it?

[real onyx]

yes...

[pseudo fog]

Huh, double check if you have the right barrel, that's all I can think of.

Also check if you have basic tools in your inv too

[terse sun]

hey, have the armor stats been modified in this game? (except the fact that suits are all detached from head gear)

[shadow sapphire]

!armor

Falco let me down there, I really expected it to be a command. But here is a spread sheet that shows the armors and their stats: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mzFmk1zVWa3-scEWwfPZLHxhkmCKXta5DTjUhASVmbw/edit?usp=sharing

[terse sun]

thanks! so much fresh air that sets it apart from other modpacks, I'm stoked right now 🙂

[shadow sapphire]

Its really amazing, and does feel very fresh. There is also a similar spreadsheet for weapons. Be advised that helmets are not on that list. The spreadsheets are in the manual channel. You can also use the Left Control key and mouse over an item to see what the stats would be at full durability!

[rapid fractal]

!weapons

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah thats not one either apparently

[rapid fractal]

lmao

worth a shot

[shadow sapphire]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MtcGryS-7sWRKWrDXpg28n1QXs6th-dofZYAqAP7mYQ/edit?usp=sharing

Its in the manual channel

[terse sun]

yeah I learned that feature, so nice for comparing purposes. As for helmets, seva suits + spartan helmets, oh boy oh boy!

also, exoskeleton + backpack = a ma zing

[shadow sapphire]

Dont forget you would have to power that exo though lol

[terse sun]

any idea if a voyager stalker suits also lets you equip backpacks now too?

[terse sun]

yeah I know, though PSU + battery can alleviate that a bit

I used to abuse generator in combination with that PSU in EFP but here artes have a fast declining health so that's a no go lol

[shadow sapphire]

I am not sure that a battery arti works on it.

[terse sun]

oh are there different recipes for that?

[shadow sapphire]

You would have to look, as I havent done that yet tbh. But I believe someone was talking about the fact that the battery artifacts do not give any charge to the exo power units

Could be totally wrong.

[terse sun]

well by themselves they don't, but usually you can upgrade an exo PSU with a battery artefact and you get a PSU with 80% reduced battery consumption and it recharges the battery while you stand still, albeit slowly

that's by far the most economical way to do it but yeah, no idea if it works the same in gamma though

[shadow sapphire]

That I am not sure on.

[terse sun]

I think I read somewhere in the gamma manual that ecologists are supposed to sell these recipes when you hit max goodwill with them

usually it's mercs + ecos selling those so maybe it's similar

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah that is correct. I should hit that shortly so if I remember I will let you know.

[terse sun]

yeah please do 🙂

[odd moon]

There's a way to switch off the Nvg in the 1pn93-4 sight?

Worked, thanks!

[pastel silo]

Oh my god, thank you, I've been looking for a way to do this for ages

[stable surge]

A quick question I have is that I turned off the brain Scorcher and Miracle Machine as a Loner. Shouldn't I now be neutral with the Mercs or are they still gonna attempt to smear my brains all over the ground?

[terse sun]

Usually it only works the other way around - you need to be a merc and do those two to be friendly with loners.

[stable surge]

Damn, guess it's time to put a disguise on and farm rep.

[pastel silo]

You can always faction swap: loner to ecologist, ecologist to merc. I assume you want to buy from merc traders?

[buoyant stump]

do your voicelines change to english if you swap to merc? lol

Yes they do

[vivid kraken]

Like Clear Sky has the Last Dawn questline, does any other faction have additional ones like that, not including the ones in vanilla anomaly

[warped ginkgo]

i think not

there are 3 CS/military/ and the one from ecológs to artefact research

[smoky dome]

where is the northwest of the swamp, keep on running around but can't find the archianomaly

[carmine wyvern]

The Merc Pathfinder and ACE sound really good

[dense hearth]

whats used to upgrade the kevlar plates?

[carmine wyvern]

it tells you in the crafting menu

[obtuse berry]

how do i put artifacts in the lead lined metal box?

[north turret]

Drag them onto the box

[obtuse berry]

@north turret that didnt work for me but ill try again later

[north turret]

If they're perk artefacts they don't go into boxes 😁

Just the ones that emit particles

[smoky dome]

hmm its 10pm ingame and spore said that a scout will arrive in camp between 8-11pm, do I have to wait an extra hour?

[north turret]

You should have received a task at 9pm to find the missing scout.

Check your PDA tasks or messages

[obtuse berry]

alright thanks

[smoky dome]

nope none, is it because I finished the task before finding the scout at like 8:30pm already?

if so then fug I have to wait another day

[north turret]

It still should have triggered That's strange. I remember giving in the task at 20:00 and it triggered for me at 21:00. It's always 21:00 on the same day.

[stoic pollen]

Anybody has a way to decrease and smooth out the heavy glittery effect on water ?

[smoky dome]

maybe I have to wait till 22:00?

oh yea it trigged now at 21:00

do you have to do the mission at night or can u wait till day

[north turret]

It'll fail if you wait until day so you'll have to venture into the dark 😅 👀

[smoky dome]

fug

I do have NV tho

[north turret]

That's water SSR and a quick search says it can be disabled with a bit of fiddling:
#🔨base-gamma-support message

[north turret]

i just fought and killed a controller and now my gun position has changed, whats going on?

quiksaving and loading fixed it

[manic garnet]

Why does my water look like this?

[north turret]

There’s an addon which simulates suicide caused by a controller taking over your mind. The closer you get to the controller the more your character raises his gun to blow his brain. Something must have bugged out there for you.

[north turret]

Could be due to disabling soft water in graphics settings.

[manic garnet]

That's exactly what it was had to restart my game after putting it back on, Thanks!

[sleek delta]

Is there some sort of pre-requisite to finding expert tools?

[brisk zinc]

They only spawn in Red Forest and north from there

[sleek delta]

Then my rng is must be shit because i've been loitering around Jupiter collecting stashes for so long

[brisk zinc]

Yes it's probably that

Try Radar or Zaton

[versed tusk]

people swear by outskirts

[sleek delta]

I am attempting pripyat because I have a couple of stashes there

Neverminded its crawling with pseudogiants and Monolith

I'm going to be honest this is tilting me a bit

I can't do do radar cuz it has too many monolith, I can't do Priyat cuz its even worse

and the other places that I can manage don't have any stahes to find, or RNGesus just cucks me

[versed tusk]

What gear you wearing? Radar should be fine with Advanced and the wide range of gear it opens up to you

but yes, i agree, rng can be cruel

[sleek delta]

I can't enter Radar cuz Monolith are literally standing on the entrance of it and they pop me before I have a chance to respond, so I have to enter through another passage or wait an ingame day or something to change their positions

[sleek delta]

I'll show you my gear in a sec, the game crashed

[versed tusk]

I did gatekeeper a few days ago and Radar/brainscorcher just yesterday

so i have a rough idea what works rn with Gamma on hard/surv

[carmine wyvern]

i swear by Red Forest

but it seems I am the only one

[versed tusk]

i've yet to do my stash round in the RF

[carmine wyvern]

i got a 66% success rate

[versed tusk]

i have like 8 of them in there but no green ones - will report back

[carmine wyvern]

2/3 white stashes

[versed tusk]

as mentioned above, just did Radar and no luck - have yet to buy the route for RF

not gonna go through radar in there

my entry into Radar was 5 Chimeras, 2 Burers, a controller and a giant

all in the first long road section

[carmine wyvern]

were they fighting each other?

[versed tusk]

they thought I'm a snack tbh

[warm remnant]

So is it just me, or do "move to point" on followers not work? I hold it down and release like it says, but usually my follower just stand there and looks at me like "nah"

[sleek delta]

here's my drip

[versed tusk]

ye no wonder

[sleek delta]

Yeahnik not the best

[versed tusk]

you are wearing an ECO suit for battle

[carmine wyvern]

are you migrating somehwere ?

or why are you overencumbered

[sleek delta]

but This eco suit was literally the best I could find

[versed tusk]

farm up, Radar and BS is no joke.

[sleek delta]

I am a dirty fucking loot goblin and I can't fix the habit

[carmine wyvern]

jesus christ man

i am too

but i sit around 60kg when i roam

[versed tusk]

this would be suitable for radar

[warm remnant]

You can stash your stuff in little goblin hideouts like the rest of us XD

[sleek delta]

I have six companions and ALL of them have a full inventory

[carmine wyvern]

lmao

imagine having mules

[warm remnant]

wtf poor guys

[carmine wyvern]

first thing i did was buying 5 backpacks and putting them into Dead City as a stash

[versed tusk]

you srsly need BR armor

[sleek delta]

wait wtf, you can have a gun in binocular slot???

[versed tusk]

and something with a lot of pen and a good scope

[carmine wyvern]

yea

bino and knife slot

[sleek delta]

oh I have a ton of weapons with good pen... but oh wait THEY ARE GODDAMN EXPERT TOOL LOCKED

[pseudo fog]

That might be a bit excessive

[carmine wyvern]

you can do Radar / BS with less gear tbh

[versed tusk]

overkill is the best kill in the scorcher

[pseudo fog]

Can't argue with that

[carmine wyvern]

its just the question of good ammo

[versed tusk]

gotta get in, through and out

[carmine wyvern]

i am confident i could do BS w/ my current loadout

[versed tusk]

the rest is rly a skill thing, can you click heads fast enough

i died inside a few times, mono decided its a good idea to bring RPGs inside

[carmine wyvern]

once i did radar/BS with campfire mode.

so i thought i can only save until i was done w/ the BS

[versed tusk]

ouch

[carmine wyvern]

basically in and out of BS in one go

then i found out you can just hit F5 in all of the X-Labs

[pseudo fog]

wait really?

[carmine wyvern]

ye

when not in combat

thats a agony thing tho

i really did ALL the X-Labs in one go

it was horrible

[pseudo fog]

You poor soul

[versed tusk]

rdy for ironman then

[carmine wyvern]

nah

i value my heart and life expectancy too much

also wrong channel for this conversation lmao

[versed tusk]

indeed

sry Falco 😘

[sleek delta]

Can that chestpiece be fixed with advanced?

[carmine wyvern]

heavy

so expert

[sleek delta]

FUCK

[versed tusk]

this is all medium/advanced, except the mask and NV

[carmine wyvern]

wait what

is that the duty pathfinder ?

[versed tusk]

i dont remember the name

let me boot

[sleek delta]

I have it, but one of my companions is carrying it and I don't remember which one so I couldn't check myself

Also, big news

[versed tusk]

nah you right, i found a heavy kit

[sleek delta]

I returned to Pripyat and the monolith are gone

[versed tusk]

and this one i upgraded as i was prepping

[sleek delta]

I can get the stashes

Pray for me please I need it

[versed tusk]

PSZ 9 command

i wore the one that is medium untill i walked into radar - my bad

but almost as good anyway with upgrads and plates

[pseudo fog]

[brisk kindle]

why is the svt-40 locked to expert tools?

[carmine wyvern]

semi-auto 7.62x52R sniper rifle

[brisk kindle]

when you have expert tools, no way that you're ever using an svt

[carmine wyvern]

what repair kit does it use ?

[brisk kindle]

advancesd

[carmine wyvern]

advanced or historic ?

LMAO

my SR25 uses the same and it a LOT better

[brisk kindle]

i think it's a tiny bit bullshit to lock the svt to expert tools when the mosin is only basic

[carmine wyvern]

fair

word it better and put it in #old-feedback-suggestions

[brisk kindle]

i'm sure grok has a reason for it

[carmine wyvern]

sometime its just oversight

the SVT is superseded by almost all guns by the point you reach mid-game

only reason to keep it is the AP Ammo

or does a upgrade kit exist for it ?

[brisk kindle]

not that i know of

[sleek delta]

I can't seem to find this stash at The hotel, can somebody tell me where it is?

[north turret]

Is it possible to make a shotgun sniper?

[carmine wyvern]

AP Slugs + zoomed scope + no pump shotgun

and you should be good

afaik you can put a 4x on a saiga

[clear vale]

Are white stashes > green stashes, or is it just different kinds of loot?

[carmine wyvern]

White Stashes CAN contain all types of Toolkits

Greens are guaranteed to Contain one

[clear vale]

Ohhh

[carmine wyvern]

The further up North (Red Forest and Up) you are the higher the chance to optain a Expert Toolkit

[clear vale]

Gotcha! Cus I have 5 white ones in the swamps, one in the cordon, and a green one in the swamps

(quite the adventure incoming I think)

[clear vale]

Does anyone know where this car stash actually is? https://i.imgur.com/552uZ3W.jpeg

I ran around the car for a bit, got super irradiated, ran out lol

Oh in the trunk, didn't know you could loot that part

[pastel silo]

so... what are you meant to do about psi-phantoms? Are you supposed to shoot them, dodge them, or just pump up your psi-res and eat their attacks?

[sleek delta]

all of the above

[pastel silo]

is there a means of restoring psy-health directly?

[versed tusk]

take psy res drugs, and shoot them - prioritize your targets. it's meant to finally be a threat

[brisk zinc]

What Skom said

You can (and need to) shoot them

[sleek delta]

Bit of a problem, I'm standing on where the stash should be but there is nothing

[rancid gale]

Hi.. What addon changes the population?
I still only have 326. Even though i set the in the zone tab maximum population which is 1. And in the ZCP i have 2 for stalkers and 1.65 for mutants.. It seems that something is blocking it because when i set it as i set it, I still only have under 400 🙂 Please let me have my zone wild and full of dangerous

[graceful iron]

the starting announcement isnt accurate, and you need to wait a few days for the new population settings to spawn into the zone (unless you started a new game after changing them).
you only need to change the zcp settings in the mcm for population, they will overwrite the game settings

the zone can get too crowded easily and even lag your game to desktop. you really shouldnt increase the zcp populations too much (1.0 in zcp is already double the anomaly default 1.0)

[rancid gale]

It's just a new game. I know that it was enough to wait about 2 days to sleep and the like and then the population changed.. It's just that even if i have it set in zcp in mcm, I'm still below 400.

[rancid gale]

Good to know 😄

[graceful iron]

how are you checking the numbers?

[rancid gale]

Welcome message addon

from mod posting

[graceful iron]

in default gamma, zcp is not overwritten by anything. the population settings in the mcm are the ones that get applied

[rancid gale]

So it dont work 😄 Okey.. but my fps still are 100+ fps instead of 60 on warfare with 670 population 😄

I playing now only story mode

[shadow sapphire]

Okay did the APB silencer (the one for the upgraded APS) get removed I have yet to see it anywhere and I have maxed rep with CS, Loner, Eco, and 3/4 for duty (which is where I expected to see it)

[obtuse berry]

yo is there a noclip command, at a buggy ladder that i cant climb

[rancid gale]

Okey so i just going play and hopefully there will be enough enemies to kill 🙂

[graceful iron]

no. it should be sold by WP factions like loners and duty

[shadow sapphire]

@obtuse berry if you launched in debug mode its either numpad 0 or enter I believe

[graceful iron]

you can press numpad 0 and then press enter to move to the new location

!debug

[raw raft]

How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[shadow sapphire]

That is what I thought... but I dont see it, I see the "APS" silence which is not actually for the APS, but not the one that actually goes on the aps lol

[graceful iron]

do you have the tactical kit for the aps ? you need it applied on the gun before being able to use a suppressor on it

[shadow sapphire]

Yup, I have had that for quite some time, and stopped using the APS in favor of something silenced since the mutants have really good hearing (I love it, not a complaint) and without a silencer seems like a whole map will come at me while looting lol

[graceful iron]

you didnt change anything with the economy or configs?

[north turret]

With this kind of pop your FPS will go to shambles after a few days or moving into Northern locations.

[shadow sapphire]

Nope literally running default everything with Unlimited stash and Turn this on if you stutter as the only optional activations. Here is the pistol just in case I am missing something

[rancid gale]

I know north locations are bigger and more populated.. But look in cordon is just fanatic no one else 😦 😄

[graceful iron]

are you using the default gamma? which zcp version is enabled in the modlist ?

[shadow sapphire]

Im assuming that is to Alz?

[graceful iron]

what?

oh. yes

because that cordon population doesnt look right

[rancid gale]

Yeah default only i have my graphic improves (Expedition 2.0 shaders) without any configs. ZCP 1.5d

[graceful iron]

gamma uses zcp 1.4

disable 1.5 and re-enable 1.4

[rancid gale]

Yeah but if i playing with 1.4 there is no mutants somehow 😄

Okey i gonna try again 1.4

[north turret]

Regarding APS silencers. I recall traders selling the one for vanilla Anomaly APS. The one for BaS either unlocks at a higher level or isn’t in the trader inventory.

[graceful iron]

i know its there because i have used it myself

[rancid gale]

I had it on, I think default with 1.4 but not 100% sure.. Balanced spawn means less mutants in Cordon and swamps? 🙂

[stark hill]

So... I have no task for the 2nd part of the science guy at the old church wanting me to go find his laptop and 'magic dirt'. He still gives dialogue options though as If I do have task. I went to Agroprom to Bushwacker anomaly and found one of the 'magic dirts'. Anyone have screenshots or a link to the locations of the other objectives? I wanna see if I can still complete this task even if it is no longer on my PDA (and still active currently through the task giver).

[graceful iron]

balanced spawns is just a preset made for gamma. it doesnt reduce mutant spawns

[shadow sapphire]

Can you show me your task list please? Did you get the laptop already?

[north turret]

When you pick up his laptop you’ll activate the tasks to find artefacts. Surely you can find them before getting the laptop if you’d like to

[stark hill]

see this is the problem, I had the task originally, then all of a sudden it disappeared.

and i have never picked up a said "laptop" or whatever else it was besides the dirt

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah that is what I am seeing, but I havent seen it in trader inv, unless its literally in the final unlock for duty which would blow my mind since yes good pistol but still a 9x18.

[stark hill]

or at least 1 dirt >.>

[rancid gale]

Yeah it fixed now with balanced spawns and zcp 1.4. And finally i have mutants too not just stalkers 🙂 Thanks for your help.. Idk what happend before because there were no mutants and i had it set up like this 🙂

[amber kiln]

I need someone who has Mags Redux installed. Need 3 Screenshots from the 3 Pages in the MCM menu please ❤️

[north turret]

@shadow sapphire according to trade preset ltx files the silencer should be available for wp factions at supply lvl 1. So it should be there. Maybe it's just not highlighted or smth.

[amber kiln]

OMG thx dude 😄

[shadow sapphire]

@north turret Something must be borked with my save then... because its not there either by name or highlighting. I wonder if the APS silencer works (the default vanilla one) if not hmmm strange...

[rancid gale]

No problem 🙂

[amber kiln]

tbh after reinstalling Gamma i had the same Problem in the Menu
https://i.imgur.com/MnbVE3E.jpeg

XD

[rancid gale]

Yeah but is not big deal for me 😄 Still can understand everything

[shadow sapphire]

Yup none of the silencers available at duty work literally bought them all and tried. going to check my file

[graceful rover]

does donating stuff at a trader do something? like increase rep with their faction?

and if so, how much impact does it have, roughly?

[shadow sapphire]

okay_cat, I know you said you have used it, was that on the most recent version I am assuming. My files state it should be there at SL 1, but its deffo not. I am running a fresh install, I am going to boot a quick seperate save real quick and double check if its my save.

[north turret]

No, just a tidy way to get rid of junk

[shadow sapphire]

Ok, not there on new save either. I will move this to bug channel at this point, no idea what the issue is, but all my files check out, freshly updated, new save, no optionals, and still does not show, even though its in the mod file.

[graceful iron]

it was on an older version, but since then nothing was changed with traders and economy so the suppressor should still be there

its supposed to be at supply 1?

[shadow sapphire]

Strange, I moved it to bug as it should be supply 1, and even with update, only base mods, default settings, fresh run it still doesnt show.

[graceful iron]

i am checking right now. i cant seem to find the suppressor on a fresh easy tourist save, but maybe it has to do with the progression difficulty?

nvm. its just not there anymore

[north turret]

It says so in GAMMA economy trade preset files.

[graceful iron]

#old-bugs alchx found the issue

[weary hearth]

question: which is the mod that enables temporary/post healing? I'm really not fond of the temp health system. please don't !heal me because I know how the system works, I just don't like it

[graceful iron]

disable the body health system and disable the gamma minimalist HUD

both are addons in mo2

[weary hearth]

by body health system do you mean GAMMA Body Health Balance?

I can't find a mod called that in my modlist

[weary hearth]

OH it was in a tab that was both greyed out and hidden, thank you! wouldn't have found it otherwise

[graceful iron]

search bar

[weary hearth]

yes but the "high priority" category was collapsed and I didn't realize it until I took a closer look, that's why I couldn't find it

[unkempt leaf]

Hi, is there a way to sell 100% condition weapons I'm not using anymore ?? Every trader I've yet found isn't intrested to buy any weapons... even 100% condition ones.

[brisk zinc]

No

[unkempt leaf]

Ok, thanks for the info

[brisk zinc]

The longer answer is that GAMMA is literally this, you can't buy or sell weapons or armors

It's the main feature

[unkempt leaf]

Yeah, I really like this feature of GAMMA.. I was just wondering if it's possible to sell guns somehow 😄

[brisk zinc]

The only way is to bring back the old economy

!vanilla

[raw raft]

If you want to be able to buy and sell guns/armors again: #╭📖faq message

[brisk zinc]

If you really have to

[lyric steeple]

thats one of the best features of this mod!!

[north turret]

there are some tasks to bring a specific weapon to a person
Freedom's leader keeps asking me for shotguns
not a reliable way to get profit off a gun you've outgrown, but still

[visual dirge]

Extract a weapon parts, diassemble a gun to get a barrel and 1-2 scrap. Sell it to a technician. Give him a little puzzle.

[north turret]

hand Mangun a tin plate, a paperclip, and a 12-gauge barrel
"have fun!"

[velvet mantle]

is there any benefit to giving the toolkits to traders as opposed to jus using them yourself?

[shadow sapphire]

Traders, not really but they sell well. Mechanics, yes it is how you increase their supply level, so they will start selling better items and more items.

BUT I would recommend that you keep one of each for yourself.

[velvet mantle]

Yea sorry, mechanics is what I meant. Didn't know it increased their supply level, but that makes sense.

Thanks!

[shadow sapphire]

Someone more knowledgeable may know but I have not found a use for extra gunsmithing kits unless they ask for it after the expert kit.

[brisk zinc]

They don't, keep one, sell them

[warm remnant]

So is there a way to "use" the bedspread for better sleep? Or is it automatic when you use the sleeping bag while you have one in the inventory?

[twin pebble]

Question for you GAMMA gurus... Should I update ReShade? On the main menu screen there's a notice of newer versions available but I wasn't sure if they were supported in GAMMA

[versed tusk]

yes, just have it available in the inv

[versed tusk]

no need to

[tulip ore]

how do i install the aggressor reshade with gamma? or will it break it?

[buoyant stump]

what does the "turn this on if you stutter do" ? i stutter every like 40 minutes maybe should I enable

[rancid gale]

Someone know how to hide this bar from health system if you hide it with H ? Still is there this bar.. Only play with no hud or exist way ? 🙂

[graceful iron]

!hud

[raw raft]

Can't see the HUD anymore: press Numpad Enter

[rancid gale]

You can try it.. But for me personally working have game on SSD have enabled prefetch sound and Dx11AXR but i think axr is just for amd.. And turn off CPU 0 🙂

[tulip ore]

can you assist me in getting my shaders working?

i tried doing it the normal way via redoing the config folders n such and now reshade wont show up at all

[buoyant stump]

thanks

[rancid gale]

No problem.. Hopefully it will work for you too 🙂

[sullen ember]

What is M bound to by default?

Making a night-vision esque sound but I want it bound to my PDA, any ideas?

[graceful iron]

you can change the nvg scope to something else in the gamma keybinds fixes addon. right click > open in explorer >look for bas nvg scope and change the key

[scarlet idol]

Is there a way to change the viewmodel fov without changing the fov itself?

[graceful iron]

i really have no idea how to do anything with shaders, but you should ask in #╟🎑reshades or #🔨modded-gamma-support

[cunning parrot]

[tulip ore]

alright lmao new issue

how do i fix this lmao

stg if its not one thing its something else

this is the remington sniper rifle btw

[graceful iron]

delete shaders cache ?

!cache

[raw raft]

To clean your "shaders_cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[tulip ore]

alright lemme try

ayeee it works, thank you @graceful iron

[gleaming granite]

So I got a dumb question that's not even quite gamma related, but if you gain enough goodwill with duty or freedom, does it make the opposite faction eventually hostile to you even if your not part of either faction?

I haven't been able to find a solid answer for this for awhile

[graceful iron]

no. if you are neutral to both, you wont be able to make one of the factions hostile by doing quests for the other one

you need to have -500 goodwill with a faction to make them hostile to you, but doing quests will stop lowering your goodwill once it reaches 0

[gleaming granite]

Ahh gotcha, thank you

[dense hearth]

How come sometime after I reload my gun just starts shooting automatically ?

[rancid gale]

Same happend today to me. With both weapons

[shadow sapphire]

Anyone had issues with the freedom quest "phantoms in the dark" Im there at night, I have killed one of the spiky bloodsuckers, and like 3 psysuckers ran around the whole zone, killed everything in the zone that isnt friendly NPCs, went to red forest came right back re ran around the zone, relit fires, shot off some unsupressed shots. Did a little dance on the quest marker, no luck.

And I did also check every single building/tent on the map just incase this bloodsucker is some kind of coward.

[grave yarrow]

For some reason my rescue mission wants me to drop the guy off at this spot, none of the AI here give a mission complete dialogue, nor does the rescued guy

[shadow sapphire]

Ah let me guess now its a captain in exo suit standing there?

[grave yarrow]

nope

I mean he is

but he's not giving the dialogue

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah, hes on the quest marker.

I have the same issue

[grave yarrow]

last time I had it solve by talking to the rescued guys

but he doesn't give any option

[graceful iron]

how did you get a quest from him even

[grave yarrow]

I didn't

I honestly don't remember how I got it

[graceful iron]

[grave yarrow]

I think I was just spam accepting quests

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly he just gives it to you, OR its possible one of the generic dutiers gets replaced by him...

[turbid adder]

Sleeping bags do crash the game?

[shadow sapphire]

No they do not, did you adjust the sleep settings in game? And do you have any other mods loaded?

[turbid adder]

I just had two crashes trying to use one.

[turbid adder]

No I didn't, and I only have 334 addons active.

[shadow sapphire]

There are only 326 by default, which other mods did you turn on?

[turbid adder]

.Agressor Reshade
.New items highlight
.NPC can't see through folliage
.Unlimited Stashes Weight
.Turn this if you stutter
.GAMMA companion rework
.Jolarint's JSRS v5 GAMMA Patch

The last one missing I don't remember clearly, maybe it was "Old to ammo..." or one related no knives animations.

[graceful iron]

why did you enable the JSRS V5 patch ?

the aggressor reshade is only grounds. its probably conflicting with the other texture addons unless you disabled them

the companion rework is a beta for testing only

[turbid adder]

Oh, that one was by mistake, the other ones I was just testing. First day playing GAMMA.

[graceful iron]

you really should try playing with the base pack first without any changes. enabling or disabling optionals is fine but try to not mess with any of the other separators

especially the disabled one

[turbid adder]

Okay, thanks.

[shadow sapphire]

@grave yarrow I am currently unpacking the db files to get my task id, once I have it, I can give you the command to try it for yours

wtf it send wrong clip

https://medal.tv/games/stalker-anomaly/clips/x0xXP0FIgC66E/d1337Wyb19XW?invite=cr-MSxka04sODY2NjI3NjMs

[graceful iron]

the emission effects being inside the building? yes

its normal

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah thats been a thing in anomaly for as long as I have played, modded or not.

[graceful iron]

its been in stalker since the originals actually

[shadow sapphire]

So basically its canon that only the belief the building protects you is why you are protected...

[graceful iron]

what?

[carmine wyvern]

I just one shot a Military in an Exosuit w/ the Carabener Shotgun (?) at point blank range w/ Buckshot, that doesnt seem normal... ?

[graceful iron]

was he in the bleeding out animation ?

or hurt at all?

[carmine wyvern]

Nah

He mightve been hurt

Cant tell for sure

They were fighting rookie bandits, i doubt they did anything to him

[graceful iron]

buckshot and slugs can still do a lot of damage at close range, even if they dont go through the armor

[carmine wyvern]

"Blunt" damage I guess

[graceful iron]

yes

he was definitely hurt

[carmine wyvern]

Okay good to know

Guess I got lucky finding the shotgun w/ a 72% Barrel then

[winged nexus]

is it guaranteed that at least one item gets destroyed when disassembling armors?

[graceful iron]

no. its random

[winged nexus]

it sure doesnt feel random, last time i remember disassembling armor without "X has been cut" was a couple weeks ago when the mod count was 314

[graceful iron]

i didnt say it has good chances

i think this was supposed to be "fixed" or removed but it didnt

[winged nexus]

are the chances affected by anything like remaining durability?

[graceful iron]

i know its affected by the tool. multitool is the best one

not sure about durability

[winged nexus]

i have all 3 that im aware allow armor disassembly; multitool, grooming kit, swiss army knife

idk its not hindering me too much but it sure is annoying as all hell when i lose 1/4 to 1/2 the parts every single time

especially when that part happens to be the only thing over 50% on the armor

hmmmm

i mucking around with it and it seems a bit odd

i may in fact be misreading this whole thing

yeah ok, i think ive been dumb about it, has been cut appears to be a display error

if i dont get an item from the armor it just doesnt get listed in the pda entry

"has been cut" always appears at the end of the parts list and the part its next to appears to be one that you actually receive
i think what its supposed to say is this:

<armor name> has been cut
obtained parts:

• X
• Y
• Z

but for whatever reason, "has been cut" doesnt appear next to the armor but at the end of the message next to the last item you get from disassembling it

[smoky dome]

for some reason the AK 5C ISG Special Leopold sight for me drops to 5 fps whenever I zoom in

is there a way to fix it?

[shadow sapphire]

@grave yarrow Okay sorry for the delay, that took ALOT longer to figure out then I thought it would. You need to open the advanced debugger (F7 key, followed by 0 on the number row) In the bottom most box paste the following: task_manager.get_task_manager():set_task_completed("simulation_task_27")

[grave yarrow]

no worries bro, thanks 🙂

[north turret]

It’s a PiP scope which kills performance. This thing should have been removed from GAMMA. Just don’t use it because there’s no way of fixing it 😄

[smoky dome]

awwww man

it was a cool scope too

guess imma have to use generic scope

[north turret]

It kind of is but it’s not the best one. Especially full auto.
Look for another ISG variant of AK5 😁

[smoky dome]

or I think at this point imma just stick to my M4 SOCOM

[north turret]

Probably even a better idea

[smoky dome]

its a good firefight weapon with 40 round mag

idk why ppl say they have mixed feelings for the M4's in here tbh

[regal rover]

I don't know if it's a bug or what not but I can't find the anomalous sample in the hell's wall anomaly

[north turret]

It’s really fine. I used it this run and upgraded to a Howa later

[smoky dome]

HOWA?

[north turret]

Type 20 😁 It’s in the game, I’ve found mine on a Monolith in Radar

[smoky dome]

is it a gun or an upgrade kit for M4

[shadow sapphire]

It may not be on the marker, have you searched the whole anomaly?

[north turret]

It’s a separate gun

[regal rover]

Yeah, even the detector doesn't pick anything

[silk hinge]

where's hell's wall at?

[smoky dome]

ah yea I just checked its a Japanese gun which makes it even cooler

[shadow sapphire]

From searching the discord, it appears that it will be on a roof approx 60m away from marker

[north turret]

If you're talking about Army Warehouses the sample is in a yellowish house second floor with burner anomalies.

[regal rover]

Yeah I found it, thanks

[velvet crest]

can i restore everything to normal ( in settings and mod settings ) it seems that i changed number of things and missed them up and cant remember where or what i changed

[shadow sapphire]

!default

[raw raft]

If you need to bring your mod list back to default, inverting any changes made by you, you can:

1. open the installer with admin rights
2. Press on "only update GAMMA addons"

[velvet crest]

thx

[shadow sapphire]

It will wipe your settings too if you don't back them up first

[velvet crest]

it's ok i didn't change much in settings the most importent thing is it dose not wipe saves xD

[median lagoon]

where is in GAMMA the file that rebalance outfits stats, like carry weight for instance?

[lament falcon]

Water looks weird, any solution?

[brisk zinc]

In theory

1. Open your MO2 (mod list)
2. Find this mod: 190- Screen Space Shaders 7 - Ascii1457
3. Right click on it -> Reinstall mod
4. Untick "water SSR"
5. Go in your Anomaly folder, in appdata and delete the folder called shader_cache

In theory because you'll probably see this

[lament falcon]

Yeah, can't reinstall

should i disable it altogether? or is it integral

[brisk zinc]

It looks bad but it works

Unfortunately the problem with the mod is that it's installed in a way that you can't reinstall it, it only contains the files Grok wanted for GAMMA

This is what you should have when you reinstall the mod

@lament falcon at this point you could just install the new mod, it works for me, this is what I chose, I'm not entirely sure about the modded exe so I didn't clicked it
You need to put it directly where you already have the old SSR

[lament falcon]

Ewww...

[brisk zinc]

Let me show you now (later, emission )

[lament falcon]

i'll just update the addon, see if it works

[austere mortar]

i thought its the city

[twin kayak]

Hi all. I have a little issue with the magazines and clips. When I hit reload sometimes the clips don't swap out. Gun goes down, clicking noise, gun comes up, nothing has happened. Sometimes reloading works, seems to be random. Anybody know how to fix this?

[brisk zinc]

Are you using Mags Redux?

[twin kayak]

yes.

[carmine wyvern]

sounds like a Jam

[brisk zinc]

Did you disable the mod in ()?

[twin kayak]

Ah, no.

[carmine wyvern]

lmao

there u have it

[twin kayak]

tnx.

[twin kayak]

Does turning that off usually break saves?

[brisk zinc]

Nope

[twin kayak]

Hmmm, if I turn that off the saves crash on loading. Works if I turn it back on.

[brisk zinc]

!crash

[raw raft]

Send your crash log here, it's inside your Anomaly folder, this is the complete path: Anomaly/appdata/logs. Send the file called xray_yournamehere.txt, you just need to drag and drop the file here, Discord will handle it for you.
Make sure you're not using any extra mods.

[brisk zinc]

Wait

What are you disabling exactly?

Mags or the other one?

[twin kayak]

I disabled the one you took a screenshot of.

I assumed that had to be off.

[carmine wyvern]

Enable Mags Redux, disable G.A.M.M.A Unjam

[brisk zinc]

If you're disabling Mags I swear to God

[carmine wyvern]

also enabling Mags Redux mid game means you dont have any Mags for your current guns

[twin kayak]

My problem I previously described was happening while I had the one you screenshot on.

[carmine wyvern]

try starting a brand new game

with Mags Redux enabled and G.A.M.M.A Unjam not ticked in MO2

you need to have the Magazine in your Loadout (right click the magazine for your gun and click add to loadout)

only THEN can you reload/swap mags

[twin kayak]

Okay, I'll experiment a bit more. Its not that it wasn't working, just seemed to randomly decide not to

[carmine wyvern]

weird

[twin kayak]

I usually check first thing when I load ,if mags swap out. If they don't I quit the game and go back in and check again. But it's like a dice roll.

[carmine wyvern]

thats.... very weird

[versed tusk]

first time I see that issue too, IF I read that right.

(also alt-click mags to put them in/out of loadouts)

[carmine wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/write-that-down-taking-notes-school-universities-university-gif-17937210

[twin kayak]

I was clicking and dragging onto gun to add to loadout. I'll try the others next time I play.

[versed tusk]

wrong channel again?

[graceful rover]

oh yeah

🤣

[weary hearth]

found an SVU that I managed to strip and repair its parts for... except for the barrel. can't figure out how to repair the barrel either, since it's at 30% condition (the part, not the gun). is there no way to fix it except for the advanced weapon repair kit?

[graceful rover]

basically that or the parts repair kit which you can buy after handing in advanced tools

[real onyx]

Im doing an ecologist run, having a hell of a time finding better respirators. Shy of raiding stashes or maybe getting one off a stalker, what are my odds?

[weary hearth]

if I disassemble my mosin I can get the barrel I need at 100% condition but apparently I still need the adv toolkit to be able to swap in the workbench. grr

[versed tusk]

!apart

[raw raft]

Text guides about repairing, mantaining and cleaning your gun and your armor:

For weapons: #╭📖faq message
For armors: #╭📖faq message

[versed tusk]

kill, loot, repair - that's the gist

As Ecos have the least enemies in the zone that part is maybe a bit slower

[real onyx]

I like those odds

[versed tusk]

You still can try to farm Bandits, Renegades & Military

[weary hearth]

so I can't replace the barrel or fix it until I get my hands on an advance repair kit after all, huh. and the damage from a gun at 30% cond barrel is going to be less than half, okay. thanks.

[versed tusk]

Pump out quests as best as you can, get the stash locations and farm them. I found mine in Agroprom.

[real onyx]

I managed to find a better mask on a bandit earlier. just need to repair it up. Shouldnt be too bad

[north turret]

Yes, you can get advanced toolkit at aprogrom, yantar and army warehouses most of the time. Expert tools can be found at red forest, Pripyat/outskirts and beyond.

Once I've found advanced tools in Cordon but that was just once.

[buoyant stump]

!unlocking

[raw raft]

To unlock every faction from the beginning, you can type greh/renegades/isg/z when you start a new game, in the starting loadout menu.

[dense cargo]

has anyone found any solutions to amd driver crash aside from those listed in #│🔧troubleshooting ?

[stoic moth]

Save guns you find with a 60% barrel early on if you want to use them. You can clean the barrel when it's in the gun too

[shadow sapphire]

Are the base SIN dudes wearing heavy armor or no? (Backstory: went into Red Forest with my good friend the SKS tactical to save some freedom bro. Walking around popping mono in exosuits and other heavy gear with AP ammo giggling all the way like the madman I have become. Apparently in my glee at killing monolith I decided it was a brilliant Idea to start my firefight near the mine entrance. Imagine my surprise when some dude stands up in a trench coat basically next to me and tanks half a mag of AP 7.62x39. So basically did I just panic half a mag of AP away on a dude with no armor which is why he tanked them, or do I need the AP and SIN just stronk?)

[silk hinge]

SIN stonks

but they can still die

[clear vale]

What artifact condition should I aim for to sell them? 100%?

[shadow sapphire]

Cool, I'm actually pretty chill with that I mean he is dead, I was just concerned that needing 10+ rounds might have meant wrong ammo being used as the monobros in exosuits drop in maybe 4 at most

[silk hinge]

they have special stuff on them, they're meant to be tougher than Monolith

[shadow sapphire]

That's actually really awesome

[silk hinge]

even though they may not look it

I went with 5.56 AP or one of the 7.62x51/54 weapons

haven't tried the bigger snipers on them yet, since there's not that many of SIN

[shadow sapphire]

I'll say this whatever changes were made to red forest/SIN make it a much more terrifying and fun to explore zone

[warm remnant]

So if i make a "hideout" (placing down a lot of the hideout equipment in one place) that doesn't stop enemies from spawning there right? I should make hideout in friendly faction occupied locations right?

[austere mortar]

hm...hm...

[austere mortar]

depends, if u make it somewhere in the middle of field then ye, they will spawn on top of it

if u make it somewhere in a tunnel then they will still spawn not in it but around, and npcs will still be able to travel to it be them enemy or not

[swift rivet]

hey, is there a way too teleport too stash location? i have one in eastern tunnel in jupiter. check on top and in it where the mark is. but cant find it

been here like 15 min

i cant for the life of me find it lol

[shadow sapphire]

There's no like built in way other than you could use debug mode.

[swift rivet]

never used it, if you have could you just give spesific commands

i try to refrain from debug modes usually

but i got so mad at this one stash. i have to find it now T_T

[brisk zinc]

Yes, debug mode, only way (like Larkin already said)

[weak eagle]

Is Anomaly HD Models mod compatible with Gamma?

[obtuse berry]

how can i get armor repair kits, specifically medium ones?

[warm remnant]

Yeah thanks, that's what i figured. Don't wanna be travelling to my hideout after a long day of fighting and travelling, and there's just a bunch of hooligans squatting there

[graceful iron]

you craft them with toolkits or buy them from mechanics after giving them toolkits #│📚manual

[warm remnant]

Traders start selling them after you get more rep with them

[austere mortar]

oh for fast travel? i can make a small addition to despawn every enemy around u in some radius
(or at least check if enemy is there that warns u)

[graceful iron]

no

[warm remnant]

oh

Well yeah toolkits is what i meant

[graceful iron]

you cant buy toolkits either do you even play gamma ?

[graceful iron]

.

you get toolkits from stashes

[obtuse berry]

is it just like RNG that a toolkit drops so i can play the game

like

[warm remnant]

Im saying, yeah after you give them toolkits

[obtuse berry]

😦

[warm remnant]

Stashes mostly

[obtuse berry]

ah, i keep forgetting to check them..

[warm remnant]

That you get the locations for, for completing quests for people

[obtuse berry]

yeah, ive got quite i few i think

thanks 🙂

[warm remnant]

Yeah it's a good idea to keep 1 toolkit for yourself so you can craft stuff though 👍

[graceful iron]

#custom-textures

[shadow sapphire]

What the heck. So I left Hip in Rostok to hang out (Hate companions, but needed a packmule for the stash move from cordon to rostok.) Everything was chill, hunting the bloodsucker for freedom and just found her standing on the road north of blood sucker village. LOL. Also Xcvb your night mutants mod just really showed its head, go to leave rostok to army, and there is a pack of dogs, a pack of zombies, and 2 chimeras killing all duty at the checkpoint. Thanks for the free loot!

[austere mortar]

left her how

[obtuse berry]

dead on the floor

[shadow sapphire]

Told her to guard this position next to the stash I am using by the command bunker

[austere mortar]

that doesnt work all the time

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah I figured, was just surprising, I honestly almost shot her, since she doesnt look like anyone friendly in this map lol

[austere mortar]

i think gamma has the remember base addon, check mcm for keybind

a pack of dogs, a pack of zombies, and 2 chimeras
ok thats... bad, i need to remove some smarts that are close to potential victims

[weak eagle]

thnks

[nocturne sky]

Hey I just got gamma up and running but it seems to have campfire save going even when I don't select it. Any ideas?

[shadow sapphire]

Will do. Also did you see my post early this morning about the dynamic quest bug with the duty captain? Honestly it was fun for me as it was an easy fight just sat in the back and used some hydro shock whilst duty served as snacks. BUT yeah probably lol.

[graceful iron]

the campfire saving is on by default. you can go to the mcm and find YACS and disable campfire saving

[nocturne sky]

Gotcha, thank you.

[austere mortar]

who, what quest

i didnt do any quests

[shadow sapphire]

@nocturne sky Just so you know, its a better campfire save than vanilla, and every 5 minutes or so you can use shift F5 to quick save without a fire. Im normally against campfire save, but I like it how it works

[nocturne sky]

Might be worth giving it a shot, cool.

[shadow sapphire]

I swear I read your name in the more dynamic. But honestly, it was like 2am so you know. #old-bugs message

I am also not sure which mod is causing it, but basically he gets 1 time flagged for the dynamic quest dialogue, and then next time you talk to him all the options are gone. It leads to getting a task from him, and being unable to turn in. I dug around for awhile but couldnt find why he is getting the flag.

[austere mortar]

i only added type of tasks and slightly changed reward/goals, everything related to npc, task picking and dialogues is vanilla

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah it didnt look like your added tasks were the problem, but figured I would mention it to you, just in case since you were here.

[frosty mist]

The modpack is more optimized than EFP (been playing efp for over 2 years) but everytime i go to Cordon, my fps goes down to single digits. There's always a firefight going on while this happens.

Other maps are fine, even Rostok which surprised me.

[shadow sapphire]

Hmm. I am not encountering that. Is it literally every load? Or only during a firefight? What is your cordon population like (how many stalkers/bandits/mutants/mil/etc.)

[frosty mist]

1. yes every load, 2. there's always a firefight going on while the drop happens, 3. i have ZCP set to 0.5 respectively

[austere mortar]

do u have offline combats turned on

[frosty mist]

For example: I enter Cordon thru Garbage, i walk to the bridge with no problems and then it drops immensly

from 90 to 7

only on smart terrains

world distance is set to 0 btw

[graceful iron]

the gamma default was recently (i say recently but it was about 2 months ago) changed from full to smart terrains only

[austere mortar]

try with full, that should reduce firefights a bit, but i had them too constantly even though i have like 0.25 stalker pop, lesser enemy respawns on cordon overall and military are friends to loners there, also respawn time is like a week...and i still get firefights too often ;[

[frosty mist]

how is that even possible xD

[austere mortar]

majority of people like to find free loot everywhere and shoot at whatever, so that shouldnt be such a big problem (for majority ofc)

[frosty mist]

i raised the stalker population cause i wanted a harder game

i'll try it

[graceful iron]

[austere mortar]

i'd also increase offline combat radius, because in vanilla and probably in gamma aswell its only 20 meters, its very rare for dots to collide into each other's 20 meters radius ;[

[graceful iron]

there is already more than enough fighting going on with the defaults. increasing the population settings wont do much to that and will just kill your fps

[frosty mist]

i'd assume that also, but fps didnt change after hours of gameplay, just made it more fun for me

[graceful iron]

clearly, it did

[frosty mist]

😂

[austere mortar]

i dont get it, so u want firefights or fps? xd

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly most zones it probably wouldnt drop it too bad if you have a pretty good PC, but cordon is very compact, and already has a lot of extra stalkers by default lol

[frosty mist]

that would make much more sense if GAMMA used HD models as default

and i do have a beefy pc

in rostok i get 30-50 fps which is more then i'd ever want there, but Cordon seems too beefy for my pc to handle i guess

[warped ginkgo]

https://tenor.com/view/cpu-cpu-kill-gif-22236310

[shadow sapphire]

Thats hilarious

So I am on night two of trying to do the phantoms in the dark quest. Night 1 killed one of the spiky bloodsuckers, and 2 psysuckers. No completion. I have searched the whole map both nights, on night 2 Freedom killed a psysucker over by road to radar as well as a burer. I dont want to complete quest via debug, but at this point I am not sure what to do. (I have reloaded, tried earlier saves, switched maps and came back, completely exited the game and come back)

[vocal cipher]

The mutant "squad" that the quest points to probably didn't spawn properly

I have had the same issue

[shadow sapphire]

Dang, had a feeling. Did you have to debug, or did you just wait it out

[vocal cipher]

I just ignored it, too lazy to look into the files to find the squad to spawn to fix it

[warm remnant]

So whats the difference between normal sleep and sleeping very well?

[brisk zinc]

Normal sleep: you wake up early
Very well: you sleep the amount of time you choose

The "very well" can be achieved by using a sleeping bag and a bed spread

The latter need to be in your inventory, you only use the sleeping bag

[austere mortar]

can i get "very very well" by having a lullaby before sleep

[shadow sapphire]

So the phantoms in the dark is pretty easy to fix, if you F7 go to mutant squads, and scroll down and its special_bloodsucker_squad_task

[graceful iron]

spawning them and killing them completes the mission ?

[shadow sapphire]

Yup, and can confirm in the logs it appears that it is popping the restrictor for them on load, but it is not spawning the squad. My guess is the spawn is getting overwritten by something.

[edgy tapir]

Is it normal for the game to consume so many resources? I got 16 gigs for ram and 6 gigs of vram

[shadow sapphire]

The GPU should honestly always be pretty high whilst gaming, so 85% is pretty normal for most games, temp is actually very good so no worries there. In terms of RAM, Im at about 13gb utilization with game and anything else running, so that seams about right. CPU is barely being touched, so that is also good.

So I guess to help you the real questions is what made you ask about that?

[edgy tapir]

Well, other games like say Cyberpunk, on high, uses only 4 - 4.5 gigs of vram and around 10 gigs of ram, I dunno, I guess I am just afraid? I don't know what happens when they are all maxed out

It's kind of a dumb question, sorry

[warm remnant]

So i finally got my hands on a psy helmet (RIP my 30k), but i can't "equip" it so does it just work when in my inventory?

[graceful iron]

just have it in your inventory

[warm remnant]

Ah ok, thank

[graceful iron]

its a quest item for going north

[silk hinge]

it's a quest item so no need to worry about it
