[shadow sapphire]

Sorry for the delay, im also at work coding some stuff, so had to deal with that real quick. Here is mine, and this is not even the brightest NVG setting.

[mystic wind]

@shadow sapphire not a problem at all . i honestly appreciate you for taking the time to message back brother !

[shadow sapphire]

I am assuming you dont ever get that?

[mystic wind]

wow ! no sadly

[graceful iron]

if you didnt try deleting the shaders cache yet, see if that changes anything

!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.

[mystic wind]

ok thank you guys ill try that

[spark summit]

I'm playing as UNISIG and need to get the X8 Documents, but I don't see them anywhere. Looking at moddb shows the three locations for them, but I dont see them there.

Are they in a different spot since I'm UNISIG?

[graceful iron]

i am still not sure what you mean by followed beefs set up. the default settings that come with gamma should be just fine for beefs nvgs

[mystic wind]

oh on moddb if you go to the description and click read more there is a little calibration section https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/beefs-shader-based-nvgs-v10

[lunar harbor]

@spark summit I found the documents yesterday. They are all in the same room. If i'm not wrong there is a big square hole in the center fill with water

[spark summit]

Yeah I didn't see any there, checked all over while holding F

Found a bunch of other items but no docs

[graceful iron]

there are 4 spots in X8 but only 3 for the main questline and the 4th for some other quests (i assume including the UNISG quest). its a room you get to through the elevator and sometimes has a burer or 2

go to the lowest elevator access and climb the ladder until you reach an open door

[spark summit]

I'll try that then, just wanted to make sure I didn't have to do anything prior 🙂

Thanks Sandwich/Cat

[warm sand]

hey i only have ~170 active mods even after updating it or doing whatever the install channel said, if it still runs when i open it is it fine?

[pure scarab]

if i give the mechanics the toolkits will he sell more toolkits?

[warm sand]

if your asking if they resell stuff you give them they should

[pure scarab]

no i mean for their tasks

[warm sand]

oh idk then sorry

[lunar harbor]

@pure scarab it does increase their supply lvl

[graceful iron]

no

he will sell more supplies and will start selling repair kits

[forest onyx]

how to disable the dynamic anomalies?

i have one blocking a door to the next zone

and can't move through it

[graceful iron]

i think there is an option in the mcm

[forest onyx]

i found a setting under ZCP in the mcm menu, but i can't get rid of the one already spawned

[pure scarab]

yeah mb, i meant repairkits

[graceful iron]

its not zcp. it should be under dynamic anomalies overhaul ?

[warm sand]

yeah its not working at all i dont know whats wrong

[forest onyx]

that worked thanks @graceful iron

[spark summit]

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I went down the elevator ladder, and it leads me to the water area that MrSandwich was mentioning he found them at yesterday, but I don't see anything there.

I'll do the other lab ones first I guess and maybe X8 is meant to be last?

[graceful iron]

the elevator ladder goes up to the very top. a room only accessible through the elevator

not the water area

[spark summit]

I'm even watching someone on YouTube who did the missions and the documents arent where he is getting them, its so weird

And hmmm ok

[spark summit]

Are they the elevators directly to the left once you enter X8?

[graceful iron]

yes but you need to enter them from the lowest floor they can reach, just above the water area

i think i might be explaining this badly

what does the quest exactly say?

[spark summit]

Because if its the elevators to the left of the entrance, it goes down to the lowest floor, and if I climb them up then its just to the entrance?

[graceful iron]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_4zVIVGZoY 3:20 and after

[spark summit]

Ahhh its not open for me

Thats why I was confused what you were talking about, I only have the left elevator open, the right hand one is closed

[graceful iron]

yes. the conspiracy documents are different from the main questline docs

it cant be closed

[spark summit]

Ill screenshot sec

[graceful iron]

make sure you are on the correct floor

[acoustic rock]

Help my rf reciever numbers wont show up

And it has baterry

[spark summit]

Yeah I'm just dumb

:^)

Thanks Cat

[graceful iron]

sorry if my directions were horrible

[spark summit]

I didnt think that one lead anywhere, thought it was just back to the top so never checked

Hahah its okay, I didnt realize it was open at the bottom for the right hand side, and even then I was just thinking it lead back to the entrance

[graceful iron]

using default gamma with no changes to visuals ? which dx are you using?

[fickle flax]

fast guestion do i need to open the game always from MO2 ?

[spark summit]

Found them! Thanks again Cat 10/10

[untold olive]

Yes, otherwise the mods wouldnt load

[fickle flax]

okey thank you

[graceful iron]

you can make a shortcut of the exes to launch them from desktop

[fickle flax]

so i can make a shortcut so i dont need to open the mo2 always ?

[graceful iron]

yes

[fickle flax]

okey that was my question thank you guys

[minor bone]

I have encountered this weird issue in WPO. If I am ADS and a Jam occurs, multiple voices start spouting out profanities.... When I am not ADS, only one voice says something. Its only when I am ADS that I hear 3-4 voices.

all at once... Like every voice line plays at once when ADS

sorry wrong channel. My bad

[heady field]

How many mules ... I mean companions can join you at the moment? (latest version) Before and after the achievement.

[solar ivy]

not enough

[heady field]

Yup 😄

[south jungle]

at least seven

[solar ivy]

before the achievement

[south jungle]

at least seven.

[graceful iron]

recruiting companions normally only allows 2 before the achievement and 4 after

but you can get way more with quests

[spark summit]

Do I just need to check Trader Overhaul or are there some mods I need to detick for it to work?

[graceful iron]

you can just tick it or you can enable it and disable the gamma economy. it depends on what you want it to do

!to

[raw raft]

Trader Overhaul isn't about weapons and armors (no you don't need to start a new game): #╭📖faq message

[spark summit]

Ooohh

Thanks Cat

[south jungle]

I usually manage to find two volunteers from my own faction during my first days, then you can have Hip follow you on an artifact hunt, a pair of stalkers from a tourist safari task, one from 'rescue the courier' task, and I think the Fanatic (if you're a loner) and perhaps an ecologist from Swamp tasks

[heady field]

Thank yall so its same as it was been. Its clear for me. Cheers

[south jungle]

at least I can attest to having 5 people with me without the achievement

[graceful iron]

mortal sin : to war gives you 6 companions i believe and it doesnt care if you have the achievement or not

you can still stack more over that or before it

[boreal jewel]

Who is this Hip person people keep talking about?

[solemn fractal]

stalker's best friend

[south jungle]

A female stalker from the rookie village. She will follow you if you give her a TOZ-194 (used to be the Bison variant in regular Anomaly), 20 buckshot rounds and a tuna can

she used to reward you for the gun with a wastelander suit I think, but in gamma she gives you a basic toolkit.

[lyric steeple]

the mag mod, grok mentioned, what does it do, and do i have to manually enable it?

[empty phoenix]

Does this new update change any user or MCM settings?

[lyric steeple]

on full reinstall, you loose all of your keybinds

[empty phoenix]

I am aware, I am just wondering if I am good to save my user ltx and mcm settings for this one

[shadow sapphire]

user.ltx is not compatible

[shadow sapphire]

Did you get help>

[carmine wyvern]

Did you use the Installer with the Version 3.7?

Also dont Spam the Download or else you get blocked from Accessing Moddb for a couple hours thus failing to download the Mods

[finite falcon]

Is there a way to change the language to russian, without changing all the text? I feel that English doesn't fit with the game

I tried in the Settings menu, but then it changed the text as well

[chilly nebula]

what faction do you play?

[finite falcon]

Ecologists - aint they russian scientists?

[chilly nebula]

nope

[shadow sapphire]

I know Merc for sure, but some of the factions speak their lore appropriate languages

i.e Merc seem to speak english

[chilly nebula]

as far as i know they are 4 vanilla NATO factions: Clear Sky, Freedom, Eco and Merc. CS and Freedom are "native" and Eco + Merc are english speaking

[finite falcon]

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check out Gamma more. 🙂

[chilly nebula]

Just to test it try a start with a "Native" Faction like the go´ol Loner and listen then! 😉

[finite falcon]

Yeah, I heard the professor Sakharov talked russian. 🙂

[shadow sapphire]

Anyone else gamma data download going hella slow?

[finite falcon]

Yeah, it took forever

[shadow sapphire]

Probably a github thing then. Thanks

@brisk zinc Back to 331 now btw

[hallow vine]

is there any settings for lowering the radiation zones in the vanilla gamma? or is it hardcoded zones?

[willow hawk]

nope

use a gas mask and radio protecting drugs

[finite falcon]

I die almost instantly from radiation wherever I go, it's totally different from vanilla Anomaly

[halcyon tapir]

I take it putting unshielded artifacts in the stash attached to the portable workbench and taking radiation damage is intended?

[finite falcon]

even though I have a protective mask

[halcyon tapir]

I may need to craft me some more artifact containers 😄

it seems like I only take radiation damage when I have the stash screen open unless I'm missing something

maybe I should just put them in a separate box

[hallow vine]

kind of silly to make a player of gamma die all the time cause of radiation on some less important areas? like anyway what so ever around yantar and on the way to Rostock xD but thats my 5 cents of rants. rest of the gamma i do like alot 🙂

[halcyon tapir]

I have consumed more alcohol and cigarettes in my first 15+ hours of Gamma than in ALL of the other vanilla/modded Stalker experiences that came before 😄

My body is always broken or irradiated in one way or another; I love it

[willow hawk]

use a gas mask

start with one

[finite falcon]

Yeah, I got the respirator, that's what was avaible to start with

[hallow vine]

well he just told you that he did, and iam watching him playing it and it doesnt work..what i can see

[willow hawk]

then don't go to areas too far in the north or use radio protectants

Mercs have the hardest start with rads imo

[finite falcon]

Yantar bunker is too radiated to be nearby 😄

[willow hawk]

loner and cs the easiest

[halcyon tapir]

I don't think the respirators "prevent" radiation so much as reduce it

[willow hawk]

(well Duty is the easiest)

[willow hawk]

they do

[hallow vine]

xD All hail the Monolith!

[willow hawk]

Monolith is very hard yes

[warm sand]

Vex and larken, trying to fix rn waiting for crap to finish will update if i still need help, also grok the install channel is outdated (still says to stay on 1.5.1)

[halcyon tapir]

Hmm... I've been wearing one for the full game

And I take rad damage everywhere.

Latest build (fresh install on Sunday)

[hallow vine]

but i still like them the monolith the most ❤️

[gleaming granite]

!2

[raw raft]

1. Have you updated your installer yet? The latest version is 3.6. You can grab it here: #📢announcements message
   You'll just need to replace the old one you can find in GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer.

2. If you're having problems with the installer or with an installation already finished, make sure you're doing everything correctly: #old-only-installer-support message

[willow hawk]

try removing it

your mask

and enjoy even more rads

use cigarettes, rad protectants, etc

[halcyon tapir]

Lol I figured given the tooltip 😄

No complaints from me; I love how brutal gamma is; you've done great work assembling the pack

[willow hawk]

cigarettes can actually prevent rads to be accumulated

😉

vodka is too precious for trades imo

(with Spirit in Yantar)

[finite falcon]

I wouldn't mind a slider to increase or decrease the amount of radiation areas, or the damage taken from it 🙂

[gleaming granite]

I'm experiencing a memory crash when trying to load a save, and just figure I'll do a full fresh re-install. Is there an uninstaller for Gamma and MO2? or do I just straight up delete it?

[willow hawk]

!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.

[gleaming granite]

I was trying to upload the crash log, but discord wouldn't upload it for some reason, just don't want bother you guys too much

oh cool it uploaded now, thanks

[sharp roost]

which one is supposed to be activated? Finally came back and updated

since 330 v 331

[brisk zinc]

How have you updated?

[sharp roost]

applied the 1.5.1 to 1.5.2 anomaly patch, then hit update modlist then full install

[brisk zinc]

Sound about right

!modlist

[raw raft]

Send your mod list in this channel, learn how: #╭📖faq message

[deft turtle]

So should I turn on item use animations, enhanced recoil and bleeding effect in the options or do mods affect those and I shouldn't touch them

[brisk zinc]

No
No
If you want

Don't touch them (the last one is fine)

[deft turtle]

thank you

[brisk zinc]

I don't recommend it because it's seriously too much, you won't see shit
But try it, maybe you'll like it

[lyric steeple]

might want to move this to #old-bugs

!heal

[raw raft]

A quick video about how to basic heal yourself: #╭📖faq message

[pseudo salmon]

Is there anything special about the flea market in GAMMA? i only noticed basic ammos and some busted walkie talkies

[timber briar]

Hi, I understand that expert tools can be found only in stashes in high level areas. Problem is, i was getting stash coordinates by paying Sdorovich and the guy in the swamps. However these two focus on low level areas. Is there a simlar NPC that sells stash coordinates for high level ones?

[brisk zinc]

!stash

[raw raft]

Stashes are empty by default; you will have to find or get coordinates to actually find something in them. These coordinates can be obtained as rewards by completing quests, by reading PDAs that you can find on the bodies of stalkers you kill, you can even threaten wounded stalkers to get them, before you kill them.
You can also buy them from traders, although the location is always random, so it could be anywhere.

Inside these stashes you can find toolkits.

In the south part of the Zone (everywhere UNDER Red Forest) is where you'll find Basic and Advanced.
In the north part of the Zone (INSIDE Red Forest and ONLY NORTH from there) is where you'll find Expert, along the other two.
You also have the gunsmithing toolkit, which is used to craft ammunition of all kinds and you also have the drug making kit, used to create drugs and medicines.

Depending on the location, north or south:
White stashes have a small chance of finding ANY toolkit inside, this means that you can find ONE basic/advanced/expert toolkit OR a gunsmithing toolkit OR a drug making toolkit.
Green stashes have a 100% chance of finding ONE toolkit from this specific pool: Basic, Gunsmithing or Drug Making kit. Advanced and Expert are random and depend on the area the stash spawned in.

[timber briar]

Thanks, the question is a bit nuanced. I am asking about the NPCs

[versed tusk]

its completely RNG

[brisk zinc]

Third line

Sorry but after saying the same thing for months, I let commands talk for themselves, because I also wrote them

[timber briar]

Thanks. It does not feel random tbh. I spent around 2 million on stashes and eg i got hundreds in Swamps but only one in Zaton and one in Jupiter

[shadow sapphire]

Bruh, if you got that much cash you must be doing tasks, which give stash coords, do the tasks up north, youll probably get stash coords up north.

[brisk zinc]

It's RNG, believe me

Do stuff north and you'll swim in northern stashes

[deft turtle]

!busyhands

[raw raft]

DO NOT ENABLE any of the disabled animations. These are the root cause of multiple animation loops that can break the game, to the point where you have to delete the save.
This bug is called "busy hands", an animation loop that prevents the player from interacting with the action keys, except for movement.

If you are still unsure whether you have it or not, try to do any of the following: interact with objects or people, use a weapon, open your inventory, drink/eat/sleep and so on.
The only possible way to, maybe, remove it completely is to disable any extra activated animation that was previously disabled. You will also have to go back to a previous save where you are 100% sure that you don't have busy hands.

Animations that bring busy hands:

• Opening/closing backpack
• Skinning of mutants
• Disassembling objects with Left-Alt pressed
• Picking up objects

[deft turtle]

!to

[raw raft]

Trader Overhaul isn't about weapons and armors (no you don't need to start a new game): #╭📖faq message

[timber briar]

Thanks @brisk zinc . Did not do THAT many quests, hunting stashes was a fun quest in itself. And taking it very slowly, the main goal is to have all weapons in the game, fully upgraded 🙂

[deft turtle]

!factions

[raw raft]

To unlock every faction from the beginning, you can type greh/renegades/isg/z when you start a new game in the character creation screen.
Since this sound strange, I literally mean "TYPE WITH YOUR KEYBOARD", you don't have an option where you can type in, like a console command.

For example, if you LITERALLY WRITE on your keyboard isg, and then you open the faction menu, you'll see the UNISG icon. Same goes for the rest.

[deft turtle]

so.. i guess following the guide if i want the most quests i'd play as an ecologist?

[lyric steeple]

like story quests? or just quests from randos?

[deft turtle]

story quests

[lyric steeple]

because i have a PILE of quests.

i think there are a few factions with "story" quests

i think you might just need rep with folks inorder to access their story quests.

but i might be compltely offbase there

[shadow sapphire]

AH okay ill explain it for yall

[deft turtle]

i'm just talking about what i read in the manual

[craggy cloud]

is there a way to make the water in great swamps radioactive again?

[deft turtle]

Because ecologists get access to
Lost to the Zone, Artefacts Hunters, Last Dawn, and Operation Monolith Retribution.

[brisk zinc]

Loners have the same stuff as well

[deft turtle]

loners don't get Operation Monolith Retribution though

[brisk zinc]

No shit

You're right btw, with Ecologist you can do everything (apparently)

[deft turtle]

except whatever Operation Afterglow is, from the UNISG faction?

[shadow sapphire]

So loners yes you wont get operation monolith, however, with eco you can only actually kill bandits and mercs without running into problems, and they have a much harder start.

[deft turtle]

ok

[gleaming granite]

!missingmods

[raw raft]

Follow this guide if you're missing one or more mods: #╭📖faq message

[shadow sapphire]

Is this your first gamma, or your first stalker playthrough?

[gleaming granite]

Sorry, quick question. I finally got my game running again no probs, thanks to Groks final solution, but the only thing missing seems to be campfire saves

[shadow sapphire]

If you have played anomaly before, pick who you want/like. If you have not played anomaly or other stalker games, I would highly recommend loners.

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah thats a bug from the saving in cars fix, should be patched up in about 20 hours grok said. For now, you can be lucky or honor system it.

[deft turtle]

first gamma, played a bit of anomaly and i know the lore of the games but not really anomaly

[buoyant stump]

is the #📍577-mods-in-mo2 accurate atm?

[shadow sapphire]

Should be...

[buoyant stump]

alright

[shadow sapphire]

issues?

[gleaming granite]

Oh thank god, Glad it can just be patched

Thank you!

[shadow sapphire]

I would recommend loner then tbh. If you get the hang and want to change factions you can, and also you can do a new run if you choose to.

[gleaming granite]

I can confirm since I just did a fresh re-install, yea that's the current mod count

[deft turtle]

I appreciate the advice

[buoyant stump]

no, just saw some stuff about mods not downloading properly

im currently updating

[shadow sapphire]

Oh, no worries, moddb can just be annoying sometimes.

[deft turtle]

i'm guessing you change factions with commands

[shadow sapphire]

I am trying to update but github is really not working

[deft turtle]

and a isg playthrough is more of a special playthrough right?

[shadow sapphire]

Nope, if you get enough good will you can go to a faction leader and talk to them about it, and they will give you a quest to do so.

[deft turtle]

oh awesome, that will avoid like conflicts then

[shadow sapphire]

Very, and very difficult, I would recommend beating the first 2 parts of the base anomaly storyline first.

[deft turtle]

Can you convert to the isg faction normally

[buoyant stump]

the gamma data button on the launcher?

[shadow sapphire]

No

[shadow sapphire]

Aye

[deft turtle]

got it, that'd be a separate save

[buoyant stump]

what's going on? first the EU moddb then github

[deft turtle]

separate playthrough entirely

[silver cobalt]

Is there a way to combine helmets and gasmasks together?

[shadow sapphire]

Yup! Thats kind of nice as there is replayability in story and just sandbox 🙂

[shadow sapphire]

Oof @brisk zinc disregard

[versed tusk]

either BR, or hazard res - never both

[shadow sapphire]

Wait, I read that as helmet and armor

shoot.

[buoyant stump]

wait how

[lyric steeple]

you can dodge a bullet, you cant dodge radiation

[shadow sapphire]

The answer is no. There are helmets that do walk a middle ground though. Best idea is one set of gear for anomalies, and one set for combat to get most protection in both situations, BUT there are headgear that absolutley do well for both, just not best protection for both.

[versed tusk]

wym? combining both would break progression and make everythign else obsolete. so, no. yoiu have to chose

[tidal raft]

No. Both compete for the head slot.

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly seems to be some sort of international issues happening with backbones today, even my work systems were affected which shouldnt happen.

[buoyant stump]

oh my bad i thought you were saying it was possible

[lyric steeple]

its a series of tubes, and you can fill those tubes...

[mystic wind]

i have a 3080 , ryzen 5600x , 36 gb of ram why am i stuttering and only getting 50 to 90 fps lmfao .. is this normal

[shadow sapphire]

On an engine this old it can be, BUT you can try a few things. Turn on the "Turn this on if you stutter" mod in the pack, turn on triple buffering in nvidia control panel. And then:

!core

[raw raft]

How to 0 core: #╭📖faq message

[shadow sapphire]

I have a 2080, and an i7 9700k with 32gb ram, and pull a solid 90 most of the time.

[mystic wind]

@shadow sapphire will do btw never got nvg thing to look nice like yours but im not worried about it .. again thank you for all your help i really appreciate it

[blazing basin]

I just reinstalled gamma , can someone tell me if this is normal?

Also i have 330 mods instead of 331

like it says on the discord

[versed tusk]

open the category

which mod?

[blazing basin]

Better knives

[shadow sapphire]

Anytime man, wish I could give you some better advice for the NVG, I am honestly running total default, only thing changed is one keybind, and the stutter mod, and body dots mod.

[shadow sapphire]

Right click that one, reinstall include the BaS patch.

[blazing basin]

Oh

Do i merge or replace?

[shadow sapphire]

merge

[blazing basin]

Oh wait nvm

eh

i still have 330 mods

[versed tusk]

iirc the modlist in discord shows 1 too much? i could be wrong

[shadow sapphire]

You are wrong

Mod 12, PDA radio enable it.

[versed tusk]

hmm, that one should be on after the latest update, no?

[lyric steeple]

(it is in the 1 - Audio group)

[blazing basin]

Found it thanks a lot

[lyric steeple]

modOrg has not been the best at dealing with turning on and off some single mods. not sure why

[shadow sapphire]

Should be yes. Is it? Nope.

[lyric steeple]

i ran into a pile of issues with dark signal audio mod.

[versed tusk]

ye, i had BHS being red X'd and if i reinstalled it it showed gboobs

[lyric steeple]

damn things wouldnt stay dead

[versed tusk]

dont ask me why

manually installed bhs again

worked

[finite sail]

does the antialiasing work i put it on 8x and it looks the same as if it were off

[versed tusk]

i recommend turning them off and using the nvidia panel or the amd equivalent

[blazing basin]

Change it in nvidia control panel and disable it in game

[versed tusk]

but when I tested AA, i had to reboot the game to see any change. every time

[finite sail]

tried that as well still looks jagged

[warped ginkgo]

also keep in mind population settings

even with a high end rig, if you have like 1200 stalkers fps will start to hurt

[mystic wind]

i have the half stalker pop on. im trying the 0 core thing... i think im doing it right ?. lol

ty you guys tho

[warm sand]

Update, yeah the 1.5.2 patch fixed it, should really put that in the install channel somehow, thought i spent 2 days on nothing

[dense pawn]

Any tips on finding repair kits/stash quests? I essentially binged a 24 hour session and I've been struggling to find anything other than the basic. Not more than 4 tho.

[lyric steeple]

completing any quest should get a stash location you can go loot.

[shadow sapphire]

... it is in the install channel

[dense pawn]

Maybe I touched a setting

[lyric steeple]

when you finish a quest do you get the popup saying you get stash location"

[dense pawn]

Also do y'all sell your mutant meat immediately or store it for quests? Not sure which is more optimal.

[dense pawn]

I've had it appear on killing people.

[lyric steeple]

I store some, but sell them to butcher

[dense pawn]

And a stash specific quest

[dense pawn]

Based on price?

[lyric steeple]

hrm, i have TONS of stashes on my map, from random quests.

[dense pawn]

I've been picky about what quests I accept so that could be it. I'll check after I update my game.

[lyric steeple]

based on him telling me to sell him that shit... honestly have looked at the price myself. I might be able to get a better price at one of the ecologist vendors, not sure.

[lyric steeple]

lately ill take just about any quest that is offered.

i have SOOO Many quests in my log.

[dense pawn]

Ecologists have been giving me less money than Mercs. But Mercs never give me enough quests.

[dense pawn]

I stopped randomly accepting when I realized some are on timer

[lyric steeple]

are you talking to everyone? or just certain folks?

AH, havnt had timer quests.

[dense pawn]

I talk to everyone, but I don't really do mutant part quests that often.

[solemn fractal]

Butcher is better for selling schmeat

Any mutant parts really

It's a small difference from ecologists but in large amounts of loot it's noticeable

[lyric steeple]

i generally ferry a full bag of parts over to him.

[dense pawn]

Which faction is he again?

[lyric steeple]

even better, (on default settings) setup a stash near him(backpack) and fast travel to him.

[dense pawn]

Also Dushman literally won't give me a single quest. 😔

[lyric steeple]

you can fast travel to your own stashes even when encumbered

[dense pawn]

I just wanna level my trader up. He dislikes me too. 😩

[dense pawn]

Wait

[solemn fractal]

butcher is neutral

[dense pawn]

Free Stalkers?

[solemn fractal]

is that what the non aligned guys are called

either way he'll trade with you regardless of your affiliation

[shadow sapphire]

Butcher is actually neutral I believe.

[lyric steeple]

lol yup

[dense pawn]

Is there a way to check what quests are timed before I accept?

Also what's the best way to farm goodwill? I assume just quests. I haven't figured out how to check what mine is yet but I'll learn eventually.

[lyric steeple]

There is a tab in your pda

[dense pawn]

I know I'm just blind

I know where the tab is just not the number.

[lyric steeple]

I think there is a button to swap to number on that tab

[dense pawn]

🤔

Oh

[lyric steeple]

That work for you?

[dense pawn]

I think it will, I'm taking a break atm

[shadow sapphire]

Open PDA, Task list in upper left corner of Area Map tab. Can be covered by minimap if you have that up.

[winter breach]

Does anybody else have the shadow map issue still? Like the borders of the screen are full of shadows?

[dense pawn]

Is there any decent companion characters for Mercs? I feel lonely.

[shadow sapphire]

Death is the only companion for mercs if I have anything to say about it. But on a serious note, I dont know of any like names special ones.

[solemn fractal]

i think hip might be the only traditional companion in anomaly

[dense pawn]

That's the Duty one right?

[lyric steeple]

She's at rookie camp when you start there

[dense pawn]

I almost went Duty but I wasn't vibing with it at the time.

[shadow sapphire]

There are a few others I believe, but Hip is the most famous.

[dense pawn]

Oh the loner

[winter breach]

So this shadow issue is only me 🥲

[dense pawn]

Could be reshade?

[shadow sapphire]

I think so m8, vanilla mod list?

[winter breach]

Man I thought maybe at first, but I loaded up a fresh new Anomaly (not even GAMMA) and same thing

[shadow sapphire]

Ooof

which dx?

[winter breach]

Dx10

[dense pawn]

Dang. I only have the black shadow thing in inventory. I know that's reshade though and not really a bug.

[winter breach]

My pc has no trouble running the game the shadows are the only thing, its not game breaking its just immersion breaking tbh

Ive tried changing the sunscale settings and all that in the debug menu but to no luck

[shadow sapphire]

Can you send a screenshot of what you are talking about?

[shadow sapphire]

Its like bethesda, not a bug, but a feature.

[winter breach]

I took this video last night, ive seen this problem talked about before but I cant find a solution anywhere

[shadow sapphire]

What graphics card do you have?

[lyric steeple]

thats clearly a UFO following you 🙂

[winter breach]

Geforce 3060

[shadow sapphire]

Shit, it could almost be like a shadow mutant.

[winter breach]

Oh god they found me

[shadow sapphire]

Do you have any unusual or non default nvidia settings on?

[winter breach]

I changed vsync in the control panel to "fast" for anomaly

But thats all I can remember ever changing

[shadow sapphire]

do you have HDR on in windows?

And does it show up if you record your screen...

[dense pawn]

!md5

[raw raft]

This function checks each mod archive to make sure everything is downloaded, installed correctly and isn't outdated on Moddb.
It CAN and WILL cause Moddb to flag you as a bot, so don't use it (or spam it) if you want to perform a Complete G.A.M.M.A installation right after doing it. It's either MD5 OR the installation.

[tired violet]

I am pretty sure everyone has those shadows on the side, a result of widescreen or whatever and exists even in vanilla Anomaly iirc

[winter breach]

How would I check that? And yea I can record the game it shows

[winter breach]

Yea thats what I was getting when doing my own research, im kinda on my last leg right now so im here haha

[tired violet]

Yeah I could be wrong, someone will correct me if that's the case, but it's an engine thing related to widescreen - you're seeing what wouldn't normally render on screen in the OG games

[winter breach]

Its just weird to me becauss I played Anomaly earlier this year with no issues, not even these shadows.

[shadow sapphire]

Weird, in widescreen I didnt have that issue, My trees were just weirdly fat in periph, but I am on 32:9.

[tired violet]

That fatness is just fisheye from your FoV

[winter breach]

I usually have it fullscreen borderless, do yall have it any different?

[tired violet]

It's more noticeable in GAMMA because of graphics mods and such bringing out the shadows more

[winter breach]

Its the only thing right now for my game I cant find a fix too 😭 sad days

[pure scarab]

who though it would be a good idea to put a chimera spawn in the cordon?

[shadow sapphire]

Bruh. Honestly didnt even think about that because I am so used to modern shit not having an issue.

[shadow sapphire]

Haha what time of day was it?

[pure scarab]

bright as the day

[shadow sapphire]

Oof, yup occasionally you can get some danger meats even in cordon, its rare, but it can happen.

[tired violet]

Yeah OG stalker games were not built for widescreen and high FoVs iirc

So you see some of the engine's graphical ... well ... anomalies on the sides with these mods that unlock all of that - this one is related to sun shadows and normally off-screen randering of them being visible due to widescreen and high FoVs.

[shadow sapphire]

The funny part was I think I checked it at first and moved from the default 80 to 100 and didnt notice any change on that so just assumed too old for ultra wide, play in window.

[pure scarab]

listten u gotta thank GCS to make a fucking amazing game that has a huge modding support

[winter breach]

Damn, I guess ill have to deal with it then, appreciate you all for the help though 🙏

[tired violet]

@pure scarab Ah, nobody is complaining, just explaining an issue someone is having that it's an engine related thing. As amazing as STALKER is, Xray is old and funny

[pure scarab]

bro i am amazed that X-Ray has one of the best lighting i ever seen

[tired violet]

@winter breach About 80% of the time you will probably not notice, since it'll be behind other hills and buildings and stuff on many maps

[shadow sapphire]

X-ray is a freaking nightmare.

[tired violet]

It's just the open ones like Cordon and Zaton and such you will see it on the distant hills. Eventually you won't notice.

[winter breach]

True its like once I noticed my eyes just went straight to the shadows every time I tried to play lol your right though ill probably forget in 30 mins, thank you again!

[tired violet]

No problem. If there IS a solution out there for it that someone around here knows about, I'm sure you'll get a ping about it.

[warm sand]

Where can I find the mod that's disabling the ammo counter in MO2

[shadow sapphire]

Explain. If you are talking for Mags Redux, its not disabled, just no longer part of mags, enable the ammo checker in MO2.

[warm sand]

Larkin i just wanna say thanks for helping me this is like the 3rd time you have, to rephrase i mean, is there a way to reenable to weapon thingy in the bottom right corner that's in vanilla anomaly?

[brisk zinc]

No

You'll have to use a mod

You mean something like this, right?

And on the left you have this

[pure scarab]

i have to say those old graphics do be nice

[warm sand]

Yeah, thank you, if i have to get yet another mod i think I'll just wait till i get used to not having it,

[brisk zinc]

SidHUD
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/sidhud

[pure scarab]

anyone know where the white stash in middle is?

[brisk zinc]

On the roof 100% (most probably)

[pure scarab]

i alredy checked

it aint the one on the roof

[brisk zinc]

Already tried upstairs?

[pure scarab]

yep

[shadow sapphire]

I know you checked the roof, but did you check on the overhang under the catwalks on the outside of the second floor.

[pure scarab]

yep

it aint that one

[shadow sapphire]

Wait. Isnt that the one at ground level on the outside by the messed up vehicles?

[pure scarab]

nop

eh fuck it

[minor star]

The one on the small tunnel by Butchers place?

[winged nexus]

X is both loner and duty at the moment as those are the missions im doing.
I think this may have started after i did a mission for a clear sky guy in the bar but cant be certain

[dense pawn]

Update should be savegame compatible?

[short shoal]

Hey everyone, does anyone know if there is a fix for the crafting menu cutting some items off?

[shadow sapphire]

Yes

[shadow sapphire]

Huh?

[short shoal]

When I use a vice, the craftable items look like they go off to the right

like I can see the smallest part of the next box for the next item

[shadow sapphire]

First why would you use a vice. Second and more importantly what resolution are you at, and what is your hud fov?

[short shoal]

I do have ultrawide though

[novel moth]

I've done several full installs since Grok fixed the 2D scope textures, but the crappy default look still remains. The Scopes Extravaganza mods are present and active in MO2. Any ideas as to what the problem is?

[short shoal]

I wanted to make a portable vice

to make a little stashhouse where I can make stuff at

[shadow sapphire]

Ok that makes way more sense I thought you were paying a mechanic for a vice I was like why?!

[short shoal]

xD

[shadow sapphire]

Any non default mods?

[short shoal]

hud fov is 0.77

nope

hud is 72

[novel moth]

@shadow sapphire, nothing that conflicts with them. A couple of companion behavior mods, and a Hip retexture.

[shadow sapphire]

Hmm it doesn't sound like that's the issue. Is gamma scaling? I haven't had that issue on ultrawide or non. I'd send a screen shot so we can compare but guthub and I are having arguments right now.

[shadow sapphire]

#🔨modded-gamma-support please

[novel moth]

@shadow sapphire Thx m8

[short shoal]

mine is 5120x1440

how do I change the gamma scaling

[shadow sapphire]

Best resolution. And I'm not having that issue on 32:9. I don't believe there are in game options, option a) adjust FOV for Hud and normal fov if you have the fat tree thing I did. Option b) try the windows high dpi setting stuff but good luck, never works for me in other games.

[short shoal]

Sadness Ill see if I can send a pic on here through my phone real quick

[formal spear]

I've seen this discussed, but haven't seen any solutions, so apologies if this has been answered before.

In the middle of my playthrough the Yantar mechanic and cook just randomly disappeared. I can't seem to find them anywhere either. They are not in the bunker and their icons do not even show up on the map. Is there a way to fix this or at least a way to avoid it from happening in the future?

[shadow sapphire]

F12 for screen shot and it can be found in anomaly/appdata

[raw raft]

We can't really see the problem if you take a picture with your cellphone. If you have a problem you want to share with us, you can do the following, since we don't care about your second monitor or your desktop image:

1. Press F12 in-game, look in Anomaly\appdata\screenshots. If it's not there, look in your GAMMA RC3 folder, inside a folder called overwrite
2. Press PRTSC (Print Screen on your keyboard) open Paint, CTLR + V to paste the pic, save it, send it
3. Windows key + Shift + S, which let you choose what part of the screen you want to copy, it will directly copy the pic for you (Snipping Tool™️ is subject to Windows own settings, not game settings, meaning gamma, brightness, and colour balance will be different.)

[brisk zinc]

Ah the ultra wide thing

[short shoal]

Dang

Is there a way to fix it?

[brisk zinc]

Not that I know of

Can you click on them?

[short shoal]

Yeah and I can click on the ones that are half missing too

I just don't know if theres more missing ones that I can't see

[pure scarab]

how many trades of vodka for basic toolkit can be made at yantar?

[shadow sapphire]

[shadow sapphire]

Farm bandits in cordon and garbage they will drop it eventually. Are you trying to farm 5 basics so you can make advanced?

[pure scarab]

yes

[shadow sapphire]

Renegades in swamps may have one.

Easiest way to farm 5 basics is just do to a bunch of tasks and check every stash honestly you'll be swimming in basic tools before you pass red forest.

Keep in mind you'll need 6 basics total

[buoyant stump]

does anyone know if campfire saves are broken atm

i didnt disable the mod and i can quick save anywhere lol

[shadow sapphire]

They are, grok said he will patch tomorrow

[buoyant stump]

good to know 👍

[pure scarab]

i wish grok would ping us all

i dint knew there was a update xD

hints why i though it was strange that campfire saves where broken xD

[shadow sapphire]

..... if you didn't know there wasn't an update, why did you take the steps necessary to update lol?

[pure scarab]

i dint

[lunar harbor]

@short shoal I do have a 21:9 too. The icons are just half cut, you r not missing any items. It just sucks

[dense pawn]

I have 2560x1440 but it seems to lack the same issues I had on 2560x1080

[lunar harbor]

3440X1440 here

[pure scarab]

any good place you guys reccomend to use as "base"?

[shadow sapphire]

16:9 is a standard aspect ratio that's why

[dense pawn]

2560x1440 is 16:9?

[shadow sapphire]

2 questions, which half of the zone are you operating in, and do you want like a good place to put stuff that also has traders and stuff or somewhere to build your own away from peeps?

[shadow sapphire]

Yup

Also known as 1440p

[dense pawn]

That explains why the only games I had issues with were still set on 21:9 in the settings.

[shadow sapphire]

That would do it.

[pure scarab]

i am on the southern half still, i still need to talk to the doctor and recuperate the PC for the ecos in agropron

[dense pawn]

Oh almost forgot, is it worth keeping SDAO?(I think it's called) on? I am unsure if the reshade preset Gamma comes with has it's own form of.... I forget the name.

[shadow sapphire]

Also do you have any factions you are unfriendly with/don't want anything to do with?

[pure scarab]

i would like somewhere with traders, i like to base up where there are more meat shie.... friendly stalkers

i am a loner, i am trying to work with every faction right now, but its kinda hard, duty freedom and ecos need more love from me xD

[shadow sapphire]

SSAO I'm guessing. That depends honestly it's pretty meh especially on an engine this old, but if you have a decent pc and are getting decent frames I would just leave defaults on. Looks pretty good, no issues for most.

[dense pawn]

I have it on with smooth fps, just wasn't sure if it'd brick the rehsade unknowingly, or if I was accidentally screwing up the lighting.

[shadow sapphire]

Rostok it's fairly central, trader, mechanic, medic, and bar man. Plus arena. They are a WP faction but freedom is directly north and they are NATO, so easy access to both, also near Yantar and pretty much as safe as you can get.

[shadow sapphire]

In all honesty I have no idea. There is a guide to what each and every video setting does and how to play nicely with it. Check the FAQ or ask one of the more experienced peeps. Never been huge into messing with reshades and the like myself

[dense pawn]

I try and avoid messing with reshade tbh since it gives me a headache, I was just going to leave it on as it's default and work my game settings around it.

I like reshade I just don't wanna configure it myself.

Here's to hoping I didn't unknowingly break it. But at least I can't tell.

[shadow sapphire]

If you checked the faq you should be good.

If you didn't check the faq... good news is I have no idea, bad news, good luck lol

[buoyant stump]

so i just killed some freedom guys by accident at army warehouses, thing is i'm a loner and kinda wanted to do some quests for them later on

can i reload the area and they'll be chill with me again? or did i fuck up

[soft niche]

i saw a video about base building being added to gamma or something, its what brought me to the mod. is that true?

[dense hearth]

so you can't go into prip at all until you shut off the brain scorcher?

[shadow sapphire]

You'll be fine, worst case go to scammovich or barkeeep and ask to pay them off, if you only killed a couple though you'll probably just have a longer rep grind and they shouldn't be hostile

Guns is supposed to be changed soon™️ because we have good_guns, a lot of them will be removed from the game.

[lavish kettle]

thank you!! just what i needed

appreciate it

[shadow sapphire]

You can always check the FAQ channel it has a list of commands like that...

[lavish kettle]

i was looking but i just couldnt find it

so many commands :p

[worthy slate]

Where can i get some decent armor?

[shadow sapphire]

What do you mean?

[graceful iron]

kill other stalkers and loot theirs

if you mean what are good areas to find those stalkers, go to army warehouses or red forest and limansk

[worthy slate]

right now i have CS-1 but I probably need to upgrade to keep heading north

[lavish kettle]

i just did x19 with a salamander sunrise suit

its worth hanging onto any good armors you find even if theyre battered

fix em up later

[graceful iron]

you can try going to agroprom or garbage first. those areas can have military and merc stalkers with good gear

[polar fulcrum]

!152

[raw raft]

In order to update your Anomaly 1.5.1 to 1.5.2, follow this:

1. Download and extract the 1.5.2 update into the root of your Anomaly folder
2. Overwrite everything when asked to do so
3. Open the installer with admin rights
4. Click on Update GAMMA data -> Full GAMMA Installation

[shadow sapphire]

I'm assuming you already did the cs swamps quests that has you kill a bunch of renegades, otherwise I would say that will at least get you something better

[worthy slate]

I completed the machine yard quest and got the ACH helmet

although I haven't had much luck with armor

I guess i'll kill some mercs in garbage and hope they'll drop some

[feral rover]

What's the difference between the different DirectX versions

[deft turtle]

so for repairing you can use armor parts as supportive materials to repair either the entire outfit or the same part

[feral rover]

I've been having FPS issues and I wanna know if me using DirectX 11 is influencing that

[shadow sapphire]

It can yes, but what is the fps issues you are experiencing and what kind of hardware do you have?

[feral rover]

I'm using a GTX 1050 w/ 16 GB of RAM

and its moreso just, my games slow

[shadow sapphire]

Ok you definitely shouldn't need to drop to a older dx. What do you mean by slow?

[feral rover]

Like

I dunno man its slow, when I use my inventory my cursors jitterly slow and its just

It's like its 30 FPS or smth

or 15

I dunno man

[shadow sapphire]

[shadow sapphire]

Hit your home key, on main menu to open the shader menu, scroll down about halfway and you should see an option for fps and it will be a small white number in top right corner

[carmine wyvern]

if you tap out mid game it will be like that for the rest of the game session

[feral rover]

bruhh

[carmine wyvern]

maybe borderless windows causes it too

you need to restart your game for it to fix

[feral rover]

tbh im just gonna
snooxe and
worry about it tmrw its 2 am

[shadow sapphire]

You're talking about the scrolling bug, he's talking about fps. Which is?

[feral rover]

It's FPS mostly

[carmine wyvern]

so your FPS crumble when opening your inventory ?

[shadow sapphire]

Ok well if you want to see fps follow what I said or use a different program, but it is difficult to help without knowing what your actually getting. You can also follow #old-framerate-optimisation

[steel forge]

is it normal that the upgrades on the weapon doesn't change the stats shown when watching the said weapon? There is the green arrow that shows its upgraded but i am just wondering cuz i am quite new to stalker

[graceful iron]

some stats change after upgrading but sometimes you will need to save and reload for the stats to be fully shown

[carmine wyvern]

I had a small Issue with a Upgraded Suit

I upgraded the weight to its -3kgs

i kept it on me with its original 6,6kg even after upgrading.
only after un- and then re-equipping did it change the actual weight to the new 3,6kgs

Is there any way to play Unisg in warfare without it crashing?

[frozen mesa]

Hi friends, sorry to post when another question just got asked, but does Gamma not come with Expedition 2.0 as part of the installer? It was always my impression that it is supposed to, but I don't see it anywhere in MO2. But I could be totally wrong.

[carmine wyvern]

nope

Expedition is a separate thing

[graceful iron]

expedition is an entire modpack. you can try installing the visuals from it separately into gamma yourself (see #╟📸screenshots or #╟🎑reshades)

gamma does not have it by default

[steel forge]

oh cool , thanks

[willow hawk]

Expedition is only good for particles and graphics (even so it needs a lot of tweaking to be actually properly tuned), and gamma comes with custom particles and reshade already + some custom graphics like sun flares etc

[frozen mesa]

Oh okay thank you, I really appreciate it! Sorry for the confusion

!warfare

[raw raft]

G.A.M.M.A. isn't built with Warfare in mind and Warfare, per se, have bad perfomance, bugs, issues, etc., this is why it isn't recommended.
You can play it if you really want to, but forget about #🔨base-gamma-support and #old-bugs, in these two channels the support is only for G.A.M.M.A. vanilla and are also used by Grok for bug fixing.
Since G.A.M.M.A. vanilla doesn't use Warfare, you'll need to use #🔨modded-gamma-support.

[deft turtle]

!update

[raw raft]

In order to update your G.A.M.M.A. installation, YOU DON'T NEED TO DELETE ANYTHING, please AVOID in deleting something WITHOUT A GOOD REASON or at least ASK FIRST.

1. Open the installer with admin rights and make sure you have the newest version, which is 3.7. You can get it here if you don't have it: #📢announcements message
2. Click Update G.A.M.M.A. data, wait for it to say "done"
3. Choose between "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation" OR "Only install G.A.M.M.A. Addons". Before you ask, NO, YOU DON'T NEED TO CLICK THEM BOTH. ONLY ONE. AND NO YOU WON'T DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING AGAIN. If you're missing something in your mod list, you will, of course.

It really depends on WHAT DO YOU NEED and WHAT YOU WANT TO DO. So, if you don't know the difference, learn it here: #╭📖faq message
This is because MOST OF THE TIME, NOT ALWAYS, "Only install G.A.M.M.A. Addons" is what you need to do, but it really depends. You can click on "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation" if you haven't updated for a long time OR if you're missing mods.

Always keep an eye out on #📢announcements because Grok (the author of G.A.M.M.A.) will ALWAYS announce in #📢announcements if you need to do a "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation", because you don't need to do it every day.

[bleak nest]

what's the difference between green or white marked stashes? and do other stalkers get to them if you take to long? mine have been disappearing.

[carmine wyvern]

!stash

[raw raft]

Stashes are empty by default; you will have to find or get coordinates to actually find something in them. These coordinates can be obtained as rewards by completing quests, by reading PDAs that you can find on the bodies of stalkers you kill, you can even threaten wounded stalkers to get them, before you kill them.
You can also buy them from traders, although the location is always random, so it could be anywhere.

Inside these stashes you can find toolkits.

In the south part of the Zone (everywhere UNDER Red Forest) is where you'll find Basic and Advanced.
In the north part of the Zone (INSIDE Red Forest and ONLY NORTH from there) is where you'll find Expert, along the other two.
You also have the gunsmithing toolkit, which is used to craft ammunition of all kinds and you also have the drug making kit, used to create drugs and medicines.

Depending on the location, north or south:
White stashes have a small chance of finding ANY toolkit inside, this means that you can find ONE basic/advanced/expert toolkit OR a gunsmithing toolkit OR a drug making toolkit.
Green stashes have a 100% chance of finding ONE toolkit from this specific pool: Basic, Gunsmithing or Drug Making kit. Advanced and Expert are random and depend on the area the stash spawned in.

[bleak nest]

well goddamn you guys have bots for everything lol

[shadow sapphire]

No items should not disappear

whats the key to change magnification on the scope? i bought one that has written on it from 1x to x4 but i didn't find any binding for that

yeah

some people say its changeable by mousewheel

i never got that to work

[steel forge]

mine works

[shadow sapphire]

Interesting, what do you mean by vanished? As in you didn't check them and the icon went away, you got there and nothing in it, or you put stuff in it and it was gone?

[carmine wyvern]

so its the 4x fixed maginification or the Backup Irons / Docter Sight w/ the upgrade

[shadow sapphire]

Mouse wheel works for me.

[carmine wyvern]

hmm

[steel forge]

uh i can both zoom in and out plus use the iron sight

[carmine wyvern]

weird maybe i had a older version where that didnt work

[shadow sapphire]

But it's opposite what you expect for the scroll, down to zoom in up to zoom out.

[carmine wyvern]

yep

you can replace the irons with a docter sight later on w a upgrade

[steel forge]

wot

[carmine wyvern]

the upgrade is like 120k

[bleak nest]

i had the 3 on my pda when doing stuff in the swamps, planned to hit agro for buisness then hit garbage to collect them. before heading into garbage i checked the pda and the markers are gone. im now in garbage and they are still gone.

[steel forge]

oh ok , guess not for my league, which faction has nato stuff? besides clear sky , freedom?

[graceful iron]

clear sky, freedom and mercs

[shadow sapphire]

Any changes to mods, updates that happened, reloads? Were these stashes from quests, or pulled off bandits? Do you remember where one is, and if so can you check to see if it has stuff?

[bleak nest]

no mod changes, all from quests, i had a bunch of reloads but theyve always been there. i can check one location i remembered brb

[graceful iron]

make sure the stash markers is still active in the pda. this could be the bug with stash markers where it would put them on npcs or mutants or even crows and then fix the placement after an emission or save/load

but never seen it cause 3 stashes to disappear from the map entirely

check if the markers got moved somewhere else

[carmine wyvern]

if you got a stash coordinate from a NPC, died and killed the same NPC again, theres a high chance he wont give you a coordinate

that should only be a problem in long times inbetween saves tho

[shadow sapphire]

He said they were from quests.

[carmine wyvern]

oh

god damn my readin comprehension is lacking again

but same things applies

you also dont get a stash coordinate everytime, even if its the same quest

sometimes you get money, sometimes items, sometimes stash coordinates

[shadow sapphire]

Don't worry happened to me a few times today XD

[bleak nest]

@shadow sapphire ight so this one had nothing in it even though it was def marked at one point, unless there is another spot near by. I've had these markers for a few in game days now. but after doing the underground they got looted i guess. is there a cap on quests/markers maybe?

@graceful iron if your interested too

[shadow sapphire]

Wait, your stash marker on your pda looks like it's off.

Should be the second button from left at the top next to task list

[bleak nest]

oh sorry i was flicking that on and off a few times, still nothin

[minor bone]

There is this rainbow circle that appears when looking in certain areas. When looking somewhere else, it will disappear. Anyone know what might cause this?

[shadow sapphire]

Okay. No worries! No new stashes marked in other maps?

[bleak nest]

It seems to be only the ones in garbage that it happened too i still got some around the map

[minor bone]

its not super noticeable in the still frames but when moving it is.

[shadow sapphire]

Try disabling roadsides lens flares see if that fixes.

[shadow sapphire]

Right what okay_cat and I are asking is, do you have 3 new ones, or rather did they move basically?

[bleak nest]

ngl i dont know. ive had quite a few i neglected. will keep an eye if any vanish or move from this point on though.

[minor bone]

k will do.

[minor bone]

yep that worked. Is this normal for that mod or do some people have issues like this?

like basically am I just unlucky with using that addon?

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly I have it, haven't bothered to turn it off lol. I saw the same question posted yesterday and that was the solution so I just parroted the answer to you. No idea if it's normal or doesn't like us lol

[shadow sapphire]

Please do. And report it again if it happens.

[minor bone]

!modlist

[raw raft]

Send your mod list in this channel, learn how: #╭📖faq message

[shadow sapphire]

As in you want my modlist lol?

[minor bone]

lol no I forgot I was replying to you. I was actually trying to find that mod (roadside flare) so I can learn what it does in game and if I should just bite the bullet and deal with that tiny issue I was having

I couldnt find it on moddb but maybe its under a different name?

[shadow sapphire]

Lol no worries, let me see what I can find about it real quick before I head to sleeps

[minor bone]

I mean its no pressure. Get some sleep if you need it

[graceful iron]

you can find the addon in mo2, right click on it and visit on moddb

nvm. that addon doesnt have the option

it could be a github download

[shadow sapphire]

From what I read, known issue with the mod, high end monitors its harder to see and takes very specific lighting conditions to notice it (probably why it doesn't bother me much lol). Appears safe to disable as people have been using that as a solution for the last month or so.

Literally seems to just add some lens flares effects and lighting changes for them

[minor bone]

ah ok, yea my monitor is a bit dated so that could be the reason why its so noticeable for me. Well until I upgrade, Ill keep this off. Thx for all of the help

[willow hawk]

can you open the F7 menu and weather editor ?

this is weather specific

and time specific

[minor bone]

Yea I tried that and tried looking on moddb but couldnt find anything so maybe it is from somewhere else.

[willow hawk]

I still need to nail down what is the incriminated weather and fix it

[minor bone]

Yea actually. Ill do that. I can run some tests to see when it is noticeable like this because now that you mention it, I didnt notice it yesterday when playing but It was also clear and not cloudy

[willow hawk]

cloudy / rainy weathers during the day tends to do that

[shadow sapphire]

Oh, easy I can let you know tomorrow for me (8ish hours at least) I regularly have it in darker conditions? Honestly on my monitor seems to look like a very faint light reflection from the gun, but in ways it shouldn't reflect XD

If github let's me download the damned definitions

[minor bone]

yea in darker conditions for me as well. Doesnt seem to be an issue when it is clear. More noticeable when cloudy and during the morning to evening period

[minor bone]

Hey does the integrated aimpoint sight on the protecta shotgun have a laser built in?

[graceful iron]

no

[rotund sun]

uh, has anyone had problems with crashes when you try to put a jellyfish or other artefacts into an LLC, it happened twice in a row the second I tried

[graceful iron]

is it the jellyfish from fanatic's quest?

its a known issue. the temporary fix is to get another jellyfish from debug

[rotund sun]

its from a random junior lieutenant at the rostok checkpoint south

[graceful iron]

post the log after you crash

its a text document in anomaly/appdata/logs

[frank spire]

anyone know where the companion teleport mod is in MO2 so i can enable it?

[versed tusk]

use the search function?

on the bottom in MO2?

[frank spire]

oop

thank you

[versed tusk]

[solar ivy]

@molten mason any way to spawn doctor Pirogov? he's not spawned and i instafail the quest. I loaded a save just before accepting the quest , to simplify things.

[wise gull]

!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

[lusty quiver]

Hi all, I've got a question, do I need to install 1.5.2 anomaly patch before installing gamma? Or is it supposed to be played on 1.5.1 anomaly? Thanks!

[north turret]

Heyo, I just updated GAMMA after like a 2 month break and I got a question. I went through the modlist and magazines redux isnt checked yet I had magazines in the game. And even though I added the loaded mags to my loadout, I wasn't able to reload with R, only manually in the inventory. What am I missing here? Or is this a bug?

[north turret]

You need to update anomaly to 1.5.2, yes

[carmine wyvern]

check redux and disable gamma unjam

remove and re-add the mags to your loadout

[north turret]

I tried the second, didn't help, odd

Also, I would prefer not to have magazines I think

[carmine wyvern]

then you need a new save iirc

[lusty quiver]

thanks a lot!

[north turret]

It is an entirely new game. And no magazines addon was checked as far as I'm aware, hence my confusion

[north turret]

np

[carmine wyvern]

...weird

[lime ibex]

Is there a way to specifically get northern stashes? If I finish a quest, most of the stashes are filled up either in cordon or dark valley

[north turret]

@carmine wyvern Well thanks anyway, I'll fiddle with it a little lol

[solar ivy]

!npc

[raw raft]

Xenotech/Spirit/Peregrine/Gatekeeper is dead/probably dead/is gone and you can't find it? Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[solar ivy]

Is it okay to update to 1.5.2 in the middle of a playthrough?

(might be a stupid question)

[versed tusk]

yes its fine

[solar ivy]

thanks

[lime ibex]

How do you deal with the revenant spam in the labs? There are so many and i can get hit only 4 times before I die, should I just rush through it?

[solar ivy]

you can shoot them

if you mean the phantoms

[versed tusk]

smoke a joint, use psy res meds, wear a proper res helm, shoot them with a pistol before they hit you, rush the kills on the main mutant

that's your options

[solar ivy]

you can use them to locate mutants, as they spawn on real ones

[versed tusk]

if the snorks at the elevator shaft hide in the toilet its rly annoying

mainly tho - use your meds, dont hoard them in your inventory "for later use"

[lime ibex]

Psy block doesn't do a whole lot for me, are there stronger Psy meds?

[carmine wyvern]

Cannabis

or Artifacts

a decent Stoneflower makes you almost invincible against Phantoms and Psy Damage in general

i survived the Miracle Machine w/ just Psy Block, but it was rough

[warm helm]

I've lost my PDA, must've accidently dropped it, do I have to reload to a previous save or Is there some recovery system thingy

[north turret]

Can someone tell me what's Psoglav's ID? Since he can't be deleted now, i am trying to spawn him with debug, but i can't find him in Squad Description files for Cordon and Limansk.

[graceful iron]

you can just buy a new one from any regular trader or craft one. loading a save is another option

[steel forge]

is there a faster way too descend/climb ladders?

[dry anchor]

My friend has found like a dozen artefacts on bandit bodies on his first in game day ever playing, something feels up with that but I have no idea lmao

[lime ibex]

Is there any way to get stashes in the north? Most of my stashes now are in cordon and swamps and dark valley, should I just do quests in zaton and jupiter or something?

[versed tusk]

stash info is pure RNG

[cursive musk]

Small question : would this affect anything if I turn psy storm from "kill" to "turn into zombie" ? For instance, will this break the "NPC die for real during emissions" addon ?

[graceful iron]

no. it will just make psy storms turn npcs into zombies instead of killing them

[cursive musk]

Beside jumping down, no, I don't think so. Would be a cool addition

[graceful iron]

thats normal. junk artefacts spawn everywhere and can be found without a detector but sell for nothing and are not always useful, they are mostly fuel for the artefact melter #│📚manual artefacts reinvention

[molten mason]

yeah
but where is he supposed to be at ?

[solar ivy]

i have no clue

[solar ivy]

the quest originates in Army Warehouses

[versed tusk]

there is one eco in AW, at the houses next to the Red Forest Exit

i dont know if that's him tho

[solar ivy]

yeah, that's the guy who gives the quest to meet Pirogov

[molten mason]

ok i know who

[raw raft]

1. Stashes (white stashes have a chance of having one toolkit from all the available toolkits, green stashes have a 100% chance of finding one toolkit)
2. Go to Spirit in Yantar and bring him vodka
3. Give Hip the gun she's searching

[molten mason]

[solar ivy]

give me a second to get there

Interesting, now both Chenrov and Pirogov are missing

[molten mason]

[solar ivy]

I'm at Chenrov's place tho

before accepting the quest

[worthy slate]

What are some decent guns that i should be on the look out for while in army warehouses?

[tidal raft]

Anything which spits out lead at high velocity.

[high remnant]

anything you can repair and you got ammo for

[solar ivy]

will just spawning them back in work?

[fringe mauve]

Is there a way to make the Aug A1 scope in 2D ?

[versed tusk]

Dont think so, better get the modular versions

[solar ivy]

@molten mason i think Pirogov should be in Yanov, he was named Beetle in older versions of the game

i think

[blissful heart]

Hi folks. I'm particularly interested in having a horror survival experience focused on playing renegade faction in warfare+story mode. Dynamic mutants is a minimum requirement for this in my opinion and besides that I wanted to see if the gamma community has any presents that would achieve this goal.

[molten mason]

warfare isnt supported by gamma

[high remnant]

gamma vanilla is already horror survival 😄

[blissful heart]

Fat rip

[molten mason]

!warfare

[raw raft]

G.A.M.M.A. isn't built with Warfare in mind and Warfare, per se, have bad perfomance, bugs, issues, etc., this is why it isn't recommended.
You can play it if you really want to, but forget about #🔨base-gamma-support and #old-bugs, in these two channels the support is only for G.A.M.M.A. vanilla and are also used by Grok for bug fixing.
Since G.A.M.M.A. vanilla doesn't use Warfare, you'll need to use #🔨modded-gamma-support.

[blissful heart]

Can I play story as other factions? I want that escape from tarkov style "stranded in the zone" kind of deal.

[solar ivy]

you can play story as any faction

and there's a few storylines

check PDA guide

[graceful iron]

or #│📚manual

[blissful heart]

Aight I'll do some reading

Mutant add-ons are supported tho right

[graceful iron]

currently gamma has night mutants by default. you can try adding some yourself but it wont be conflict free out of the box

you can find the gamma modlist in #❗welcome

[molten mason]

i keep looking but i dont see or cant find a single guy called pirogov

[solar ivy]

give me a second

im gona revert back to that save if i still can

[molten mason]

[tidal raft]

Full Installation. Your MCM is outdated.

[thick python]

ok, ima do that. thx!

[molten mason]

@solar ivy

[molten mason]

then this

[north turret]

hello, is this mod, https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/warfare-alife-overhaul compatible with gamma currently? tia

[carmine wyvern]

Warfare is not officially supported in Gamma

that mod is in the MO2 of Gamma but highly experimental

[solar ivy]

where in Dark Valley should he be spawned/

at the southern farm i guess?

[molten mason]

pretty much

the farm with loners

[graceful iron]

you need anomaly 1.5.2 before you run a full installation #📢announcements

[thick python]

ah well.. good thing my internet is fast ._.

[north turret]

Okay thanks, are there any other things I should know if I try it? I know warfare isnt "supported" but has anyone got any experience or issues/fixes?

[magic thunder]

where can i disable dropping items when i press shift on them

[solar ivy]

it autofailed again, let me check logic again

[graceful iron]

in the mcm you can bind the key to something else

[forest onyx]

what mod is controlling trader rep levels in Gamma?

[carmine wyvern]

Gamma Economy i think

[magic thunder]

and where exactly?

[carmine wyvern]

i would suggest NOT disabling it

[magic thunder]

thanks

[forest onyx]

is there a guide or something on trader rep? I don't understand how to unlock more items with Sidorvich. Do I have to just do free stalker tasks? or only tasks directly from Sidorvich?

[magic thunder]

i thought you meant the entire mcm menu

[graceful iron]

doing quests for stalkers and traders from a faction gives you goodwill with that faction. goodwill increases the supply level of the traders from that faction

you can see the goodwill info in the pda > relations

[forest onyx]

Yeah I Just did 3 quests and my rating with Free Stalkers didn't change

[graceful iron]

supply levels from 1-5 require goodwill from 0-2000

[tidal raft]

What are you looking at?

[forest onyx]

the relations values on the PDA

[tidal raft]

Wrong.

Look at the Goodwill row.

[forest onyx]

Ahhhh

[graceful iron]

the first row is your goodwill with the different factions

you can click on show values to see the exact numbers

[tidal raft]

You also get a message telling you Your Goodwill has increased with X Faction.

[forest onyx]

ok so my free stalker is 490, so does level 2 Sid unlock at 500?

[graceful iron]

yes

[forest onyx]

I see

[tidal raft]

Yes, when his inventory refresh the next day.

[graceful iron]

forgot to mention that

[forest onyx]

pog, so much to learn in this game. is there a online guide about all these things?

[worthy slate]

I found some CS-3b armor is that worth repairing?

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual. there is also a guide in the pda > guide > gamma manual

[high remnant]

the pda guide is actually pretty comprehensive

[solar ivy]

@molten mason i tried not turning Chernov's quest in, spawning Pirogov in DV, turning the quest to Chernov and it instafails.
I also tried turning the quest in, spawning Pirogov in DV, then came back to AW to see that Cherov is gone

[hollow apex]

not familiar with the term but what is this "16Go" mean? I know 16G or 16GB, but not with this "o", is that "optimize"?

[solar ivy]

That's GobiBytes

[molten mason]

i know why

[bleak nest]

does anyone know the location of the reshade presets?

[solar ivy]

bin folder

anomaly bin folder

[solar ivy]

<disk letter>:\Anomaly\Anomaly-1.5.<1-2>\bin

[bleak nest]

ight cool thank you.
I made a preset and it changed my directory to a different location

[solar ivy]

lol

[bleak nest]

put it here with the screenshots

[molten mason]

db.actor:disable_info_portion("ah_pirogov_dead")
try this on the function executor

before asking for the new quest

[solar ivy]

i have to exec before turning the previous quest in, otherwise chernov dissapears

or will execing this prevent from him dissapearing?

[molten mason]

no thats to prevent the instafail quest

you still need to spawn both

[solar ivy]

ok so i'll spawn him before turning the quest in, so that chernov doesnt dissapear

that might work(?)

[molten mason]

if you dont place chernovs logics he will just run off and despawn

[surreal pollen]

how do i replace cr3spins icon to maids?

jsut disable cr3sp then reinstall and check everything in maids?

[solar ivy]

chernov has to have his logic as he was giving me quests normally, so after turning this quest in and changing levels, he must be losing his logic due to Pirogov being dead and function not being executed?

[molten mason]

fucking xray being xray

[solar ivy]

in the middle of sleeping to fast travel the game crashed xD

it fucking worked

[knotty storm]

Can you repair weapons parts that are below 60% in any way ?

[solar ivy]

thank you so much @molten mason , again 😅

[solar ivy]

weapon parts cleaning kit i think

[molten mason]

[knotty storm]

Damn, gonna have to wait I guess

[versed tusk]

very expensive, but yes you can directly replace parts by spending a weapon repair kit charge or the parts repair kit

but its not worth imo

[knotty storm]

I got a SV98 with all weapons parts to 100 except the trigger that is like 20

[versed tusk]

i mean, you can def spend 1 of the 5 charges of a kit

[graceful rover]

Currently looking into crafting artefacts and this one seems sus. Can anyone give me an insight on what this one does other than changing the stats? Because the description definitely makes it sound like it does something else, too

[versed tusk]

just dont use it up

[boreal jewel]

So I upgraded my Echo Locator right up to the one above Bear (Veles or something like that?) and now it doesn't appear to do anything? I've tried running around various anomolies with it out and no lights or beeps. And yes, the batteries are full.

[surreal pollen]

Do i need to turn on the DII on maids icon or no

[brisk zinc]

If the anomaly doesn't have artefacts in it, it won't beep or show anything on the screen (duh)

[surreal pollen]

Falco, Do i need to enable maids DII?

[brisk zinc]

If you want

[surreal pollen]

oh

[brisk zinc]

It's optional

[surreal pollen]

i thought theres indicators too

[brisk zinc]

Check in #╭📖faq, there should be an updated guide to use it

[graceful iron]

the description on the volat emerald ? its just flavor text

the artefact reduces your ballistic resistances a little (as shown on the stats) but thats it

[boreal jewel]

[graceful iron]

the veles detector doesnt make any beep sounds. it uses a display screen to show you where artefacts are

look for yellow/red dots

[boreal jewel]

Awesome, thanks. Are the other detectors also worth upgrading?

[surreal pollen]

yeah falco?

you should update the maids icon guide

[graceful iron]

which ones do you mean? the other 2 high tier detectors are grizzly and svarog. the svarog works like the veles and shows you the exact locations of artefacts but also shows you the locations of anomalies while the grizzly has the same display and beeping as the bear but can detect all artefact tiers like the veles. can also be used with nvgs at night or any light conditions unlike the veles and svarog

[brisk zinc]

...with what?

Finish your sentence, you're not very helpful

[graceful rover]

oh

interesting

[boreal jewel]

Yeah I just realised you can't upgrade the gieger counter or the RF receiver. So functionally the Grizzly is better than the Veles due to the night vis compatibility?

[graceful iron]

yes

but doesnt give the exact locations

[solar ivy]

BUT YOU CANNOT CRAFT THE SVAROG FROM THE GRIZZLY, WHEREAS FROM THE VELES YOU CAN

sorry

caps

i was playing, believe it or not, gamma

with detector on caps

[molten mason]

honestly i craft the grizzly and run with that

[boreal jewel]

Am I correct in thinking that there are no circumstances under which the PDA will work with NV on? I upgraded mine fully, and top tier NV, but it's just a retina melting white mess

[river forge]

I enabled Trader Overhaul and Destockifier. and noticed that some traders are selling firearms and outfits now, and it also lets me sell guns at good condition. It's not a whole selection, more like 2-3 outfits and 2-3 guns, but GAMMA's description says that you can't buy or sell guns at all

[graceful iron]

no. you can go to the mcm > beefs nvgs and untick nvgs stay on when using pda (something similar)

[river forge]

Is this being caused by TO and/or destockifier, or does GAMMA have a few purchasable guns and outfits baseline?

[graceful iron]

nope. that is definitely caused by destockifier

the gamma economy doesnt allow you to buy guns and armors or sell them but there are a few guns that escape the selling rule due to oversights

[boreal jewel]

Exactly what I need, thanks.

[river forge]

Okay, I'll try disabling Destockifier and waiting until the next trader stock cycle, thank you

[solar ivy]

M700 Deer Hunter is sellable

[obtuse berry]

i have an M4 Tactical, can i put a short and long range scope on this, if so, how? i see the kits for sale from the merchant but do i have to use specific scopes for that.

[shadow sapphire]

I havent used one in game, send a screen shot of the weapon, and the kits in question and I can answer for you probably.

[tidal raft]

It can. Use ACOG or March scopes.

[shadow sapphire]

There ya go!

[obtuse berry]

ok so i cant mix and match any scopes, thats dissapointing

[gusty pine]

how much psy resist u need to not have your psy health drained in 2 seconds in x16

[tidal raft]

You can use the scope kits, but it's personal preference if you want an ACOG+Canted optics, or a very long range scope, E.g: March.

[hollow apex]

what is this about? syringes?

[obtuse berry]

yeah im currently using the specterDR sight and saw the kit for it and tried to put another sight with it

[tidal raft]

You can't.

[shadow sapphire]

scroll wheel on specter will take you from 1x to 4x if you dont know about it. Just be advised default is scroll down to zoom in and up to zoom out for some reason

[obtuse berry]

this kit is compatible with the M4

or am i misunderstanding it

[tidal raft]

It's the same amount of zoom as an ACOG. If you want more 4x zoom you must detach the kit and place different optics.

[graceful iron]

right click on the gun > details > attachments. see if the scope can be used on the gun

choose which kit/scope you want to put on your gun

[stable surge]

I've got a quick question. How do you turn off the mags on the side of the screen so I don't see them cluttering.

[frosty mist]

MCM menu, u can enable/disable most features

[stable surge]

Aight, I must be blind and missed it. Brb.

[pearl vale]

Try the num pad enter key.

[stable surge]

Still didn't work and I can't find an option in the MCM.

[minor bone]

is there a guide for BHS. I keep trying to heal my head and whatever T is but its not working.

I guess tonsels

[frosty mist]

there's plenty of guides you just gotta not be lazy

[minor bone]

lul

Yea I have looked
