Helping people out is hard lmao, I'm trying my best to help out the mod team but bruhhh I'm already struggling

[summer lava]

have upgraded to 1.5.2, am using windows 10, C:\Users\Theo\Desktop\Games\GAMMA RC3

C:\Users\Theo\Desktop\Games\Anomaly-1.5.1

[astral condor]

Ehhh did you have to install GAMMA in Desktop?

That might be the problem

Well, did it work with you before? Did you change the locations?

[summer lava]

this is my first time installing it

played plenty of modded anomaly, which works from that file location

[astral condor]

That really looks like Mod Organizer's lack of sufficient privileges, i.e It might have not been able to inject mods to begin with

So yeahhh I'd honestly recommend moving GAMMA & Anomaly out of Desktop. Move it to C: and just make a shortcut to desktop

[summer lava]

done

[astral condor]

But it really fucks up the privileges putting things in Desktop

[astral condor]

With GAMMA it might be a bit more complicated, I'm afraid

Wait lemme grab the guide rq

[brisk zinc]

That's something I need to add in it

No fucking Desktop

[astral condor]

!move

[raw raft]

Moving G.A.M.M.A.:

1. Open your GAMMA folder and ONLY delete the mods folder you'll find inside, leave the rest untouched, you don't need to delete anything else
2. Move your GAMMA folder to the new location
3. Run the installer as admin, click on Update G.A.M.M.A. data and then on Full G.A.M.M.A. installation.

Moving Anomaly:

1. Move the folder to the new location
2. Open MO2
3. Click on the green and blue gears icon to manually edit the new .exe paths of your Anomaly folder

[astral condor]

Here we go!

Sorry that took so long

Be advised, you don't have to redownload all the "mods" after deleting the mod folder. The installer does have the Downloaded ZIP files to work with so you should be fine <3

[brisk zinc]

This of course if GAMMA has been already installed

[summer lava]

gamma has been installed yes

ill do all that and try again, thanks!

[astral condor]

Np! Report back and good luck

[astral condor]

Yeah lol that's a very common mistake apparently

[winged ether]

how do you replace weapon barrels? Do you need a repair kit and vice access? And do you need basic/advanced/expert tool sets?

[lyric steeple]

if you have the associated weapon kit(check details) you can replace the barrel. if yo uhave a basic tool set, AND the associated repair kit, you can swap the barrel with one you have.

[brisk zinc]

What ThreehamKablaam said

"Replace" the barrel will use one "charge" off your weapon kit, if you have the actual thing on you + the tool kit & the weapon kit, you'll just replace the barrel, without using a "charge"

[winged ether]

but do you have to be at a vice?

[lyric steeple]

nope.

[silk hinge]

workbench, as in your toolkit

[lyric steeple]

also, check #🤖bot-commands i just ran ! apart it should give you all the details you could want about repair armor/guns

[winged ether]

Cool ty both

[brisk zinc]

Nope

Tool kits are basically "portable vices"

You don't need to go to a technician and pay 1000 RU every time

(also because they don't have said tool kits)

[viscid sparrow]

svarog detector det4ects the same artifacs as velles and grizzly?

[summer lava]

still crashing on new game

[astral condor]

Send crashlog?

[stable surge]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but is it worth waiting for GAMMA 1.0 before doing a full playthrough or should I be good to go ahead and start now?

[sturdy stone]

Depends on how long you intend your first play through to be, but imo start now

[stable surge]

Will it get deleted if I update to 1.0? @sturdy stone

[lyric steeple]

is the current date end of sept? or was he aiming for earlier?

[brisk zinc]

It's september from what I remember, yes

[lyric steeple]

thats what i thought i had seen too.

plenty of time to play a bunch! 🙂

hell thats a heap of ironman runs, if thats your thing! 🙂

[stable surge]

Good enough for me. Thanks for the help.

[cunning merlin]

So, ive been setting up gamma to do a first time play through of stalker, why paly vanilla when you can play modded. Ive gotten rid of the economy changes, sleep, and a couple more i forget. Is there any other big changes that gamma brings that wouldnt necessarily be good for a first time play through? Im fine with the gun mods, skill system, wpo.

[astral condor]

That'd have to depend on personal preference really

Play around with GAMMA a bit, see if you don't fancy anything and just disable it if you don't want it

[solemn obsidian]

It worked, thanks mate

[astral condor]

the necropost is real lol

[tidal raft]

It was only two days ago.. Keep shitposting to a minimum outside of #🎪bruh-fart.

The minimum being 'zero'.

[astral condor]

lmfao fine

[rustic comet]

Grok broke ump

[rustic comet]

they will never find you

[astral condor]

lol

[finite sail]

how can i reduce inventory lag its like 5 seconds now dont remmeber it being this bad few days ago

[tidal raft]

Carry less stuff.

[finite sail]

just cleaned my inventory and its the same

[astral condor]

I remember like, sorting plus or some other inventory addon increasing lag with inventory but not to that degree

[tidal raft]

Restart the game if you haven't done so in a long time.

[quaint shadow]

Isn't it a bug if you keep alt tabbing without going to the pause menu first?

That your inventory starts to lag? I swear it was some stalker modpack lmao

[tidal raft]

No. Only slow scrolling, not slow loading.

[finite sail]

i just started so it hasnt been running long

literally the first thing i notice that the lag was off

[tidal raft]

Game on an SSD?

[finite sail]

yeah

[tidal raft]

Actor is in which area? Is your 'main stash' in that same area?

[finite sail]

dead city and yes

[tidal raft]

Try opening your inventory in a different area, your main stash may cause loading times if there are too many item IDs within.

[finite sail]

ill try

well its a bit better i would say

[tidal raft]

You may want to clean out your stash a bit then.

[north turret]

just crashed for no reason

died then tried to go back to my save (ive died five times in the same place, save works)

[sly moss]

what are these things? i cant pick them up, but when i picked up other stuff it disappeared and an armor upgrade thingy spawned in the container

that how its supposed to work?

[terse sun]

yes

the addon basically converts vanilla upgrade kits into "simplified" versions

and sometimes the conversion happens after you open a stash/inventory

if you reopen that inventory you should immediately see the correct kit

which you can pick

[icy needle]

is there controller support?

[tidal raft]

No.

[astral condor]

||#pcmasterrace||

[icy needle]

thanks 👍🏻

[spiral pasture]

killed everone on a duty raid mission but it's not completing

am I missing something?

[sly moss]

i see, thank you!

[last ruin]

where do I find ctd reports?

[graceful iron]

anomaly/appdata/logs

[north turret]

hello?

game just crashed again, was in the immediate aftermath of a fight

I was medkitting then it crashed

why? anyone know?

[graceful iron]

a stack trace. does the game launch? is the crash reproducible ?

[north turret]

yeah it runs

but it crashes randomly

before I crashed after dying and loading my save

now I crashed beFORE I died

[terse sun]

last time this happened to me (couple days ago) my save file ended up being corrupted

but I'm just saying that, it's not necessarily your case

[graceful iron]

as far as i know, there isnt any known cause or solution for this. you can try at least making sure everything is installed correctly and making sure the antivirus isnt messing with anomaly or mo2. try adding the gamma and anomaly folders as exceptions from the antivirus and make sure to run mo2 and anomaly as admin

[tidal raft]

No custom modlist etc.

[graceful iron]

people reported similar crashes before, its really just xray sometimes

[last ruin]

I keep getting a ctd on fresh install I go to start my new game I can pick my loadout and everything but it crashes when its trying to load up the game.

[graceful iron]

post your crash log

!crash

[raw raft]

Send your crash log where it was asked, 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.

[graceful iron]

what was that supposed to be?

[strong ice]

Been getting a new crash suddenly. can't load my save, CTD whenever I try loading my save. Anyone have any ideas?

[graceful iron]

not using any extra addons?

[strong ice]

Haven't downloaded anything extra

I don't even know how to mod STALKER lol

[graceful iron]

update anomaly to 1.5.2 as instructed in #old-how-to

!152

[raw raft]

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

1. Download the 1.5.2 update: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/downloads/stalker-anomaly-151-to-152
2. Extract the update into the root of your Anomaly folder
3. Overwrite everything when asked to do so
4. Open the installer with admin rights
5. Click on Update GAMMA data -> Full GAMMA Installation

[strong ice]

If by extra you mean stuff in the optional category then yeah, I'm running Mags. but it hasn't caused me any crashes yet.

[graceful iron]

extra is anything that was not enabled by default

[strong ice]

Gotcha, in that case I'm running mags

So yes I am running an extra mod

[graceful iron]

when did the crash start? does a new save crash as well?

[lyric steeple]

did you follow the instructions for enabling mags? or just enabled it?

[strong ice]

Crash started suddenly today. was playing like an hour before it happened, got off briefly. tried loading, boom. can't load save now 😦 happening in Dead City.

[strong ice]

yeah, mags was installed properly. didn't experience the crash for the last like 4 days I've been playing this save. just today.

[strong ice]

Just tested, new saves don't crash.

[graceful iron]

how many times did you try loading your save? could you try again?

a save just crashing without any changes sounds familiar

[strong ice]

I tried it 4 times, I'll test it again rn

[graceful iron]

oh. probably not the same case then

[strong ice]

after it crashes if I click on the Mo2 thing it freezes my entire PC for like 30 seconds and pops an "0x0000" error

crashed again

[terse sun]

sounds like OS or hardware issue

kernel of a modern OS should be able to handle freezes without compromising the whole OS

[lofty bluff]

shot heli with rocket 7 times

will not fall

):<

[strong ice]

doubt it, nothing else has problems, or crashes, game doesn't normally crash. think it's more like just an xray engine being broken problem.

[terse sun]

can you post the exact error code you get when you crash?

the 30 sec freeze one

I'm curious

[strong ice]

It was something about referenced memory.

like 0x00000B87876D referenced 0x000000B7 blah blah blah, I can try to grab it real fast.

[terse sun]

please do if you can

[lyric steeple]

!crash

[raw raft]

Send your crash log where it was asked, 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.

[terse sun]

these specific error codes can many times lead you to exact issues

[terse sun]

ok so this means that the application was trying to read something from memory which could not be read

[strong ice]

it only "freezes" up if I click on the mo2 manager after the crash and before xray closes fully

[terse sun]

hence probably the freeze since the application was trying to loop-access that information

[strong ice]

yeah thats kinda what I was thinking

but without the technical terms

"the PC was getting angry bc the game was fk'd and mo2 was being trash and didn't like that."

[terse sun]

at this point I would suggest you to try to reinstall gamma, along with anomaly, there may be a corrupt file somewhere in there

[strong ice]

thing is, I can load different saves no problem, including a new save entirely

[terse sun]

ah ok

important info

it may just be that that save file is corrupt

[strong ice]

Fuck

[terse sun]

I know, happened to me too

xray

if you have the option of reverting, do try that and try to find the first stable save

[strong ice]

wtf

"This message can't be posted because it contains content blocked by this community. The message may also be viewed by the community owners."

[terse sun]

yes, don't swear 😄

[strong ice]

I can say "Fuck"

but not fuc**d

[terse sun]

yeah, it's a selective anti-swearing system lmao

[strong ice]

sus

[terse sun]

[strong ice]

I have 2 different auto saves within a few mins of eachother, and they're both fuc**d. what are the odds of both of them being corrupt?

[terse sun]

well if the first save was corrupt... odds are the next one will be too

ok but your quick saves?

try that

[strong ice]

thing is, this isn't the first time of me loading the whole save

thats what i was trying to load lol

I have 5 quicksaves, tried loading 2 seperate of em

both a few min apart, both crash

this is the 4th day of me playing this save

[terse sun]

did you extend your quicksave amount to 20?

[strong ice]

negative, on the regular 5

[finite sail]

yo i have just updated gama and my game is way too dark is there a way to fix it?

[terse sun]

go to settings-> other then select 20 for amount of quicksaves

will give you some more breathing room

and every now and then, make a hard save, just for cases like this

[graceful iron]

!blackscreen

[raw raft]

Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[terse sun]

corrupt saves don't happen often so it's not like you're risking a corrupt save every 5 minutes, but hard saving helps a ton

[strong ice]

true enough

i just wish I could decipher the crash log to pinpoint exactly what is causing the crash, in case it isn't just a corrupt save

[terse sun]

yeah, I mean, would be wise to wait for some more people to chime in, maybe there's something else at play

but the way you described it, it kinda smells like a corrupt save

[strong ice]

true, I'm just hoping it isn't at this point. would hate to lose my 4 days of progress 😢

[terse sun]

I literally lost like 15+ days of progress less than a week ago for the same mistake of not making hard saves 😄

it's not that bad though, your second playthrough in GAMMA is way quicker than the first one, you'll get up to speed in no time

[strong ice]

RIP...

F

[terse sun]

what you can try though while you wait

try to install a second copy of gamma

make another stalker gamma instalation with a fresh copy of anomaly and try to migrate your saved game there

see what happens

[strong ice]

Fuck thats gonna take like an hour to DL lol

[terse sun]

you can borrow the "downloads" folder from your existing install so you don't have to redownload every mod again

[strong ice]

That could work

[terse sun]

!delete

[raw raft]

If you really need to delete everything because you're having problems: #╭📖faq message

[terse sun]

follow this

[strong ice]

😮

[finite sail]

didnt work

[terse sun]

it's not such a big deal, I personally always keep a zipped copy of anomaly and 1.5.2 update stashed on my drives for cases like that, then the reinstall literally takes 10-15 minutes tops

[finite sail]

could this ss shader have something to do with it?

[lofty bluff]

i want

[graceful iron]

how is that addon in gamma disabled, and why is there multiple of it?

[astral condor]

Ghillies don't do jack crap

[lofty bluff]

dnc

looks cool

i require it

[graceful iron]

why are you posting this here?

[lofty bluff]

wanting to see if it's actually obtainable.

[graceful iron]

it is

[lofty bluff]

yeeeessss

[astral condor]

It is but no actual benefit

[graceful iron]

question answered ?

[lofty bluff]

thank you my friend

want my debit card info?

[graceful iron]

no, i only take cash

[lofty bluff]

you will be able to extract cash from an ATM after i give you the info

it has 52$ on it

i am very poor

[graceful iron]

make sure mo2 is sorting by priority, and make sure you have the default modlist enabled

!default

[raw raft]

Modlist
To bring your mod list back to default, inverting any changes made by you:

1. Open the installer with admin rights
2. Click on Only install G.A.M.M.A. addons

Keybinds
To bring your keybinds to default, DON'T press the default button in the menu, you'll mess up everything.
Instead, do this:

1. Go in GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches\appdata
2. Copy the user.ltx file you'll find in there (note that every change made by you in your user.ltxwill be reverted to default)
3. Paste this file in Anomaly\appdata

[lofty bluff]

though a nigerian scammer would kill his best friends for 52$

[river forge]

Is there some sort of guide for dealing with some of the new mechanics not mentioned in the manual/faq? For example some of the new mutants and mutant actions (not sure how Controllers work now, I tried getting to cover from the tunnel vision but still got blasted + not sure how the suicide works)

Just something to read up on before doing stuff like Ironman runs

[graceful iron]

its mostly vanilla with controllers but only difference is that you also want to keep your distance. line of sight + distance and they are still the same to deal with

[finite sail]

did that but it looks like its still under disabled

[graceful iron]

there is no collective guide on a lot of the new stuff except whats already in #│📚manual or #╭📖faq sadly. you can always read about each addon in their pages

[graceful iron]

how many addons active?

[graceful iron]

dont enable it then

never enable any addons under the disabled separator

[brisk zinc]

We have a new version of that mod, under... I think it's "Shader" or something section

It should be version 10

Grok can't automatically delete any old mod we don't use anymore so they all go under Disabled

[finite sail]

nah even with default config it doesnt work

[graceful iron]

did you try the fix i linked for black screen?

especially the console command?

!blackscreen

[raw raft]

Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[graceful iron]

which DX are you using?

[finite sail]

11avx

[graceful iron]

report back if this doesnt work

[finite sail]

the first 2 steps or should i just reinstall the game again

?

[graceful iron]

try the first 2 and if that doesnt work try the full install. the instructions couldnt be clearer

[finite sail]

its wroking now

so those ss shaders are no go then

[graceful iron]

there is already another version of the addon active. please never enable disabled addons

[finite sail]

but the game looks still a bit contrasty then it was before updating

i can live with that ty for your help

[native cliff]

Heya sorry if this has been solved already. But I'm watching my friend play, and he has the ammo/fire select on the health system UI. Mine is the standard Ammo box icon in the corner. Is this because I use ultrawide? I keep everything vanilla mod-wise

Everything else works perfectly fine, and I even have no problems updating the game either. This is my first weird quirk outside of the usual ultrawide UI stretching which is nbd

[north turret]

FUCK

I crashed AGAIN

I was dismantling things when I started getting shot so I changed to my gun, fired one round and then poof

I cant get past fuckin jupiter like THIS

[dense cargo]

I read !tasks already but just want to ask if anyone has had issues with last dawn: find scar, sidorovich gave me the info but he is not appearing at ||substation workshops||

if i need to debug mode to advance quest thats fine but just wanna see if im missing something

[trim mauve]

I'm guessing there's no way to pick up containers

[graceful iron]

while in the inventory, click on take all

twice if there are items already in it

[trim mauve]

yeah just tested it, posted that then thought, wonder if theres a take button

sure enough lol

workbench made me think there was a separate option for it

[north turret]

how do you get from limansk to the dead city? it seems like a dead end

I found a tunnel with acid that almost killed me

[terse sun]

that leads to red forest

[north turret]

then how do you get to the dead city?

[terse sun]

open PDA

head back and on the left you will see a passage

[north turret]

im currently in front of the red house next to the river

can you give directions from there?

[terse sun]

oh you meant that little tunnel

[north turret]

orange, I mean

orange house

[north turret]

in the river yeah.

[terse sun]

I don't have the game open right now

post a screenshot of the limansk map from your PDA

[trim mauve]

go through the house to your left

should be some stairs you can take.

you're still a ways away from dead city entrance

rough route

still a couple spots to encounter Monolith, assuming they're hostile to you

[terse sun]

just go down all the way, then turn to your right

you will see a passage with big doors

also

those arrows that are on your pda

those will actually give you information where they lead to if you hover over them with your mouse

so you literally can't screw up, just give it a look first

[dense cargo]

Can anyone provide some input? I used debug menu to advance the clear sky quest since I was stuck on ||Find Scar - he isnt appearing at the substation workshops.|| When i advance the quest it doesn't do anything or initiate the next task

[north turret]

how do stashes work?

[north turret]

i AM monolith

I spawned at the service base and am gonna make my way killing things to agropom

[trim mauve]

gotcha, and also stashes only have loot if you find them from people/rewards/etc

[north turret]

no like

[trim mauve]

once they're marked they get loot spawned in them

[north turret]

I made one with a backpack

so whats the deal with that?

is it like a storage box? does it dissapear or not?

that's storage that will stay there forever until you pick it up

[trim mauve]

not unless you pick it up

[north turret]

stalkers cannot loot it, it is safe

FOREVER even if I change map?

[trim mauve]

yup

[north turret]

its unmarked but its still there, huh

[trim mauve]

should be marked.

[north turret]

so you gotta remember where you put it?

[trim mauve]

you made sure your stash option is ticked on your pda?

[lyric steeple]

it should show up on your map.

[north turret]

yes, but it should be marked on your map unless you've changed something
and they can be used as fast travel locations

[north turret]

it aint

[trim mauve]

might be due to stash changes from gamma tbh

I haven't used a backpack

but the other containers don't leave a mark either

[lyric steeple]

did you turn off fast travel, or stashes?

because it for sure shows up if you "put down stash"

[graceful iron]

backpack stashes are marked on the map but with a different color

brown/yellow color

[north turret]

weird

in my previous life it didnt

but now I died and did it again it does

its a gold color

[trim mauve]

weird

[bleak anvil]

is there anyway to see quest location on the PDA? I have them in my task list but cant find them on the map

[north turret]

other containers don't make marks, and I assume that's because they are "hideout furniture" and thus you're meant to have several in your base
would become a big mess if you have a ton of marks in one location

[north turret]

if the quest points to a specific area, it'll have the circle icon next to the name in your PDA
if not, hover mouse over the quest to know what area your quest is in, and find that location otherwise

[bleak anvil]

ta

[dense cargo]

[valid axle]

Hi! New in the gamma experience, I've just started to get the hang of repairing guns and armors after a few in game days, so my armor is really worn (25%) and I dont know how to save it and I dont seem to be able to get the basic toolkit or the light armor repair kit. What can I do?

[graceful iron]

sadly your only option is finding a basic toolkit. doing quests and getting the stashes you got as rewards is your best bet

[willow hawk]

find an armor that needs field repair kit and patch it up using a mechanic vice

field repair kits can be bought

[graceful iron]

that is also an option, going with another armor

[willow hawk]

then get a basic tool, the easiest is at Yantar for vodka

[graceful iron]

or if you find a toz194, give it to hip at rookie village for a basic toolkit

[trim mauve]

yeah, Yantar is my go-to to get a basic, then farm them to craft an advanced toolkit

for armor, once you replace a couple pieces, you can use normal repair kits and it'll bring the other internal parts up as well, unlike weapons @valid axle I personally recommend crafting your own workbench asap, good stash and free workbench in one.

[valid axle]

Is that thingy that can also be bought?

[trim mauve]

which thingy.

[valid axle]

Sorry. The workbench that comes with a (blue) stash?

[trim mauve]

ah no, once you get your basic toolkit, you can right click it in your inventory and use it. in the crafting tab, under hideout items you can craft a workbench with wood and metal scraps. I think 12 of each? then you can place that wherever you wish. it doubles as a stash with 300kg of space, and a workbench. It can use the materials in its stash for the workbench, but can not use toolkits from the container.

so when you use the bench, you have to move the toolkits into your inventory, but everything else can be inside the stash

[valid axle]

Ohhh okey! So much thanks! I'll try to get the basic toolkit asap in yantar! Or if I'm lucky the one hip gives for the mission

[cinder linden]

i just installed gamma and im having a problem, where can I ask it?

[graceful iron]

here or #old-only-installer-support

[cinder linden]

ok

[south phoenix]

Is there a point where mechanics start selling more advanced outfit repair kits? I've got everything I need to repair a gas mask except the repair kit itself.

[trim mauve]

pretty sure its tiered, and tied to which toolkit you hand in

[graceful iron]

they only start selling repair kits after you deliver toolkits to them

[trim mauve]

I only got medium armor kits after turning in advanced

[south phoenix]

Do their inventories act like traders which restock after awhile?

[trim mauve]

think so.

[graceful iron]

its more cost effective to craft those repair kits yourself with those toolkits

[graceful iron]

yes, every 24 hours

[south phoenix]

pepehands

Cheers though I gotta just wait in that case I got xenotech advanced tools by now

[trim mauve]

but yeah, crafting the kits is way cheaper

What's the mod size?

Hmmm, let me finish something up and I will do some more digging, you are doing this in the F7 and not console right?

[clear tinsel]

I have entered
game_relations.change_faction_relations ( "actor_stalker", "ecolog", 200, 1)

[clear tinsel]

yeah

It says it executes, but nothing happens

[north turret]

thank you ❤️

[clear tinsel]

I did just get this though

That was when I put in a value of 2500

[shadow sapphire]

hmmmmmm

[shadow sapphire]

let me find the actual player "faction" reference

[clear tinsel]

any luck?

[shadow sapphire]

relation_registry.set_community_goodwill( "ecolog", AC_ID, 2000 )

That should put you at SL5

[clear tinsel]

perfect

thank you

[graceful iron]

this works for every faction in the same way? its just their game file names (killer/isg/ecolog/stalker/dolg... ?

[north turret]

tested, and yup
"killer" got Merc rep, so it does follow those file names

[shadow sapphire]

Yup literally everyone

[boreal jewel]

So the 6500r stashes you buy from the traders aren't guaranteed to be green? I just started in the Clear Sky base in the swamp, got enough money together to buy two - both of them white, both in Agroprom! FFS

[north turret]

wait no, Freedom is just "freedom", not "svoboda"
unless that's the coded faction name, and outfits just mismatch
Duty is "dolg" though...

[graceful iron]

models can have different names. its soldier for stalkers and i believe army for the faction

[shadow sapphire]

freedom is freedom in files

[shadow sapphire]

Nope, they are random

Should be: Stalker, Killer, Dolg, Mil, ecolg, greh, isg, renegade, bandit, c_sky, monolith

only one I am not sure of is mil

[north turret]

mil is "army"

[boreal jewel]

Are locations completely random, or are they just guaranteed to not be in the map you are currently in? I never seem to get any in the current map.

[shadow sapphire]

locations are totally random

[trim mauve]

anyone know how good Merc lottery is for monolith/merc
Assuming you can even use merc patches, knowing stalker I'd imagine it'd piss them off lol

[grizzled raven]

any patch works

mono is the best one alongside ecologist iirc

[trim mauve]

gotcha, wasn't sure which was best

I knew it said better would be worth more

I have 5 ecologist patches, I might have to become their enemy at this rate.

I do have a suit... as a back up plan...

[boreal jewel]

Are radiation patches placed randomly (like anomalies) on new game? I made it to Garbage last night on Ironman after three hours and got a massive dose of radiation before I'd even got past the bus/truck/camp at the very start of the map. Was down to pretty much no health, trying to run through with black vision, smoking, taking meds, ran right into a burner and died instantly.

[versed tusk]

Some radiation spots are indeed randomly assigned on new game

[boreal jewel]

I can't believe how much the gods of RNG hate me in this game. I watch YTers playing and they never have the shite luck I have.

[versed tusk]

well, they also can be very scripted and planned out/edited after it worked

[boreal jewel]

OFC

[shadow sapphire]

Whoever asked earlier by the way, if you are still here, I handed grok the fix for the weapons. Sorry about that apparently my test weapons all exclusively had sprint animations so I didn't notice non excludeds going to default.

[boreal jewel]

How do you deal with detecting/avoiding random rad patches early game? I get that knowledge helps with the non-random patches/areas.

[shadow sapphire]

Geiger counter. Seriously I take my starter ru and buy one I scrounge for everything else.

Also helmet is the first thing I repair, and typically I repair 3 or 4 light ones if it's better I fix it.

[boreal jewel]

Do you need the geiger counter equipped and out, or just in your inventory? Yeah, the only mask I found in 3 hours was at <10% so no way to repair it.

Also, is there a hotkey to cycle through devices?

[shadow sapphire]

You can repair masks at any durability... Geiger counter doesn't have to be equipped 8 to see the number and it will give the beeps

[boreal jewel]

How?

[shadow sapphire]

Basic tools take the components out and replace them. It doesn't use armor kit uses.

You don't even need to put 100 parts in it if you don't have it, just get it to 50 and you can use a kit

[boreal jewel]

Yeah I've had games where I've played for 20+ hours before finally finding Basic Tools!

[shadow sapphire]

Which faction did you start as?

[boreal jewel]

Loner usually, tried CS and Merc too

[shadow sapphire]

Merc is rough but loner or cs give hip a toz194 from a bandit or trade spirit vodka for a basic tool kit

[north turret]

completely new to gamma i did see a section in the guide to start the main story but can't find faction leader and spawned in clear sky camp as a loner?

[versed tusk]

Loner Faction Leader is Sid in Cordon

[north turret]

why would i have spawned in clear sky camp?

or is it random

[versed tusk]

you select a spot or it is random

[north turret]

oh i see

[versed tusk]

its a 4 minute walk, not that far

just dont enter cordon in the southern spot - there's military there

[carmine wyvern]

I am struggling to get Experts

First Playthrough I got 2 in the span of 5 Minutes in RF

Now I checked RF, Jupiter and Zaton and I got nothing

Rotten luck

[boreal jewel]

Do the 'Loot dead bodies' and 'Pick up anything useful' options in the companion commands actually work, because I've never found anything in their inventory after enabling it and playing for a while, and I never see them looting? I am a bit of a loot goblin though, so it may just be that I've got to everything first?

[shadow sapphire]

Nah they loot, hilariously alot of the time it's crap you dump from your inventory though.

[north turret]

how does one check ammo?

[graceful iron]

in default gamma you can see the ammo count on the bottom left

[north turret]

ah by health thank you

how does one remove the blur after firing

[shadow sapphire]

The what? After shooting or did you get hit in the head in a gun fight?

[north turret]

when firing my weapon i get a blur effect

[shadow sapphire]

Odd.

[north turret]

like a cinematic effect

[shadow sapphire]

I don't remember that. Did you add any shaders or animations?

[north turret]

no just standard modpack

[graceful iron]

could be the enhanced recoil effects from GBO but those are very brief

unless you are running the game at 5 fps...

[north turret]

na running smooth

[river forge]

When the Seraphim is used, does it give some sort of notification?

Like is it obvious

[shadow sapphire]

I mean honestly I would probably need a video or something as I laid down so I can't check mine, but I seriously don't remember that and blur effects and I do not get along.

[river forge]

I’m missing mine and I don’t recall being killed or anything, wondering if I dropped it somewhere

[graceful iron]

did you have it equipped ?

[river forge]

Yeah

[graceful iron]

perk artefacts drain while equipped and drain faster when used (or in some cases drain completely when used)

1% every 20 seconds by default, but some of them last a shorter amount of time

[river forge]

As in they drain away and are destroyed?

[graceful iron]

yes

[river forge]

The thing is I don’t have Artifact Reinvention on, and checking the artifact on a previous save shows no percentage bar

Is it invisible?

The bar that is

[shadow sapphire]

Then why are you in gamma vanilla?

[river forge]

Well I was just asking a vanilla question

Which was whether Seraphim has a noticeable effect when activated

[graceful iron]

perk based artefacts addon adds the perk based artefacts (i know, surprising) and it manages them differently from what artefacts reinvention does to radioactive artefacts

[north turret]

damn how does one use the echo detector i thought it was o

[graceful iron]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[shadow sapphire]

Caps

[graceful iron]

its either an icons addon overwriting the bars or perk based artefacts by default doesnt give them bars, but you can still see the efficiency in the properties of the artefact @river forge

i have no idea if it has an effect, but so far i have seen and heard effects from other artefacts so i assume it has its own

[river forge]

Ah now I see it

Thank you I had no idea that was a thing

I mean I thought it was for some but I figured more like a bar that waxed and waned depending on use not literally burning it out

[graceful iron]

you can tweak this in the mcm > perk based artefacts

try to refrain from using the vanilla channels for a custom modlist please

[river forge]

I will, thanks for clearing this up

[narrow crescent]

i want to make a new game because i unlock new factions, but when i want to choose the faction i unlock, it doesn't appeared, what should i do ?

[river forge]

This is a vanilla question then, does efficiency affect the Perk Artifacts in any way, or is it just an indicator of its ‘health’?

So for example if I had a Generator, would it charge my stuff less with less efficiency?

[graceful iron]

it does for some and others it doesnt, read each one's properties

[river forge]

Or is it an all or nothing deal sort of thing

Ah okay

Wack

[graceful iron]

you can unlock them by typing the faction names in the starting loadouts

!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.

[narrow crescent]

okay i will try it

[charred sorrel]

anyone know how to detach the lasers of the guns?

[versed tusk]

lasers are not parts you can detach, unless you take the whole kit off - if it is a kit

[charred sorrel]

can i take the kit off with some tool or something?

[versed tusk]

i never tried as all my kits are on on purpose

[charred sorrel]

I just looted an Ak with a laser and a extra scope

[north turret]

nope, if a gun spawns with a kit you can dismantle it and MAYBE get the kit
but that kit can only be used to create that specific gun again

you cannot take a laser off one gun and put it on any other gun

[charred sorrel]

ok

thanks

[bleak anvil]

why is my lead lined container not stopping the rads from the jelly fish?

[versed tusk]

are you doing the cordon starting missions?

[bleak anvil]

yep

[versed tusk]

did you pick up the anomalous bread too?

[bleak anvil]

yeah i did

thats probs it

[versed tusk]

yeup

[bleak anvil]

i cant find it in my inventory tho

found it

stupid bread

[versed tusk]

it happens to almost everyone

[pulsar yoke]

Is there a way to pick blue boxes up after placing them? cause I was setting up my hideout and had a stutter in the moment I was about to place a blue box, so now it is not where i wanted it to be 😅

[gritty minnow]

Which faction sells 5.45x39 ammo?

[narrow crescent]

duty, loners and maybe bandits

monolith both

[north turret]

press "take all" when the box is empty

[gritty minnow]

Dang it, i'm currently a mercenary

That's gonna be really hard to get

[north turret]

go to bandits and buy off them
or go shut down the whatever lab which apparently then makes Loners neutral

[bleak anvil]

how do i pick up a sleeping bag i placed down?

[north turret]

use the compression bag

[bleak anvil]

danke

[pulsar yoke]

Thank you it worked, thought I have to live with a not exactly aligned to the wall placed box (my inner monk hates this) 😅

[north turret]

the feng shui must be perfect

[gritty minnow]

Where are the bandits located again?

[north turret]

Dark Valley is their main base

[gritty minnow]

Gotcha, thank you @north turret !

[north turret]

[gritty minnow]

@north turret , bandits don't seem to sell 5.45x39 ammo, unless I gotta be a certain relation level?

[north turret]

should be supply level 2 onwards

[gritty minnow]

Ohhh gotcha, thank you!

[north turret]

level 2 might only get you 30 rounds per stock, so getting to 3 is preferably, for ~120 rounds of FMJ, usually some HP or AP is available too

[north turret]

why is this happening

[tidal raft]

That's a very suspicious-looking link.

[north turret]

unbelievably mad

ive spent FIVE HOURS trying to salvage this

[north turret]

christ

its just an embed

not trying to get people to click on it

I saved in the mobile research center in yaktar or something

right

and now when I spawn im instantly spotted by mercenaries and im half HP anyway so I die

[tidal raft]

You might as well have posted a screenshot instead.

[minor star]

I have one possible idea, what's your FOV?

[north turret]

oh shit

its like 180

1sec

[minor star]

Tone it down

120 or below I'd say

80 is the vanilla FOV iirc

[north turret]

ye

its good now

i forgor 120 is the max in most games

[willow hawk]

load an earlier save ?

[tidal raft]

But my pride, Kakarott!

[north turret]

I didnt save for like two hours

and recently I tried saving halfway through killing the mercenaries

[willow hawk]

blame yourself

[north turret]

heads up, five seconds later they appeared in front of me

I know

but FUCK

[tidal raft]

You stayed in Yantar for over two hours?
Just load an autosave

[willow hawk]

in their base ?

[north turret]

thats the ISSUE

no in the mobile science thingamajig

[willow hawk]

ah

[north turret]

they surrounded it, so I killed half and ran in

and now the rest just fuckin surrounded ME now

[willow hawk]

just wait for them to come through

[north turret]

no like

I spawn in the CENTER and theyve taken positions

I could record it but its like a fuckin prison escape mission

[willow hawk]

if you are in the mobile lab it's easy

open the front door and pick headshot them

[tidal raft]

I bet you he aggroed the Ecos as wel..

[willow hawk]

I guess so

[north turret]

a few times yeah

[tidal raft]

You're fucked.

[willow hawk]

you are better off reloading an auto save

[north turret]

I aint got one anymore thats the issue

[willow hawk]

debug your way through it

[tidal raft]

Did you remove it yourself?

[torn totem]

do I should start new playthrough every update? I noticed some things getting bad after last one, enemies going through walls, when im moving from one map to another my character have 0 hp, AI is seriously stupid, my companions do not react to enemy moving on front of them, I dont know what happen, also I got couple of crashes during trying to load the game.

[north turret]

I overwrote it accidentally

[tidal raft]

With what?

[willow hawk]

load a previous save

[tidal raft]

A manual save?

[willow hawk]

look, you spent 5h fixing this

[north turret]

I have two saves

[willow hawk]

this could have been 5h of progression from an earlier save

[north turret]

but I stubbornly didnt

and now im in this hell

ill try to get out but doesnt look too good

[tidal raft]

Oy vey, why don't people learn to use multiple save slots?
Even quick saving creates up to five separate slots.

[willow hawk]

otehrwise just use debug, make yourself invincible, make ecologs peaceful and kill the mercs

how old is your save ?

(in before 2h old save x) )

[median lagoon]

what is this setting for?

[north turret]

5h

[north turret]

I WOULD if this game let me think for five seconds

its mainly a personal issue though

im impatient.

[tidal raft]

Pressing F5 takes less than five seconds.

Pressing F5 near any safe location should be a subconscious response for any Stalker player with YACS enabled.

[north turret]

I got the game yesterday

talk to me like the COD player that I am

[tidal raft]

[warm remnant]

When you're comparing guns, does it show the stats with or without upgrades?

[north turret]

How do you disable FDDA?

[versed tusk]

FDDA is off by default, except the 1st option

you find it, as many mods, in the mcm menu

[north turret]

Hmm, I still get animations for drinking and eating tho

[versed tusk]

yeah, those are active and fine for the most part

[north turret]

Ohhh okay thnx I’ll check it out

[tidal raft]

Compares with any currently applied upgrades.

[warm remnant]

ok thanks 👍

[willow hawk]

when you pass near campfires, light them up and save

[north turret]

Yea it was in the MCM settings thanx a ton

hmm

is there like, a command for full-hp or for stamina regen?

cause if I had ONE of the two this would be long over

my stamina is constantly zero and im dying so not like I can do much but wait to die over and over

[warm remnant]

You could turn on debug mode

and then god mode

[minor star]

Turn on degub menu and turn on god mode

[north turret]

aight bet temporarily to get out of this hell

[minor star]

Infinte HP and infinite stamina

[north turret]

so how do you do that?

[minor star]

!debug

[raw raft]

How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[minor star]

Once you have it enabled, check the ingame debug menu, it'll show you the keybinds for different things

By default godmode is G I think

[north turret]

aight thanks

[rain cargo]

what are you meant to do to fight Mortal sin, im just trying to get to forester in red forest and each sin dude is soaking 1-2 mags of AP 762x39 and dropping me in a second. is their something im missing, Wearing heavy armor and a apocalypse helm(altn)

[minor star]

You should not use AP ammo on them unless they have good armor, other than that, there are no other real tips for fighting them

[versed tusk]

click heads with AP - 3-4 shots would do the trick. stay distant

[minor star]

They have an 85% damage reduction so you gotta hit them hard, either full headshots or a high caliber enough weapon

[versed tusk]

if you magdump you're doing something wrong to begin with imho

[orchid barn]

Fighting Sin just boils down to: "Just do more damage, lol"

[minor star]

Gotta click on heads

[willow hawk]

they don't take 30 AP ammo to kill, aim better

[rain cargo]

full auto at point blank and watching the red mist effect when you hit them seems to show otherwise. Didnt remeber them being this tough before

normally i stay on semi, just didnt seem to be enough

but such is my luck i guess

[warm remnant]

there's your problem, don't get into point blank range with them, click on heads from a distance my guy

[rain cargo]

ill try anything once

[minor star]

You don't even need AP unless they are wearing good armor

It takes 4 headshots to kill one of them with 5.56 FMJ

[willow hawk]

For them what matters is ROF or pure damage

i.e. high ROF rifle or big sniper. .338 Lapua isn't overkill for Sin

.338 lapua to the head

Usually what you need is very low recoil endgame rifle in 9x39 or 5.45 / 5.56/ 7.62x39 / 7.62x51

but actually a 5.7 SMG work well if you spam the head

[warm remnant]

So i have a broken quest, i have fixed these before, but this time i can't find the quest ID, I've looked in both the Gamma xml file and the Anomaly one, and none of them have it

[willow hawk]

even a UMP would work well actually

like UMP with hydrashok against light armor sin = easy kill

[rain cargo]

at this point im tempted to just rifle grenade the area they are in

[warm remnant]

could do that, or just do like me when im out of options, and just axe them some questions, work out like 40% of the time

[north turret]

Hello everyone ! My stalker gamma crashes each time I try to load a new game, what can I do for it ? I enabled a few optional mods, it didn't work, also removed them didn't work either

[willow hawk]

works too

[willow hawk]

!crash

[raw raft]

Send your crash log where it was asked, 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.

[rain cargo]

either way im collect 20 ish grenades for it and have not have much reason to use them

[north turret]

I only use the mods that comes with the installation of GAMMA

[solid drift]

Where do I check for other screenshots. In anomaly folder I could find only a few of them. Is there other one?

[willow hawk]

!152

[raw raft]

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

1. Download the 1.5.2 update: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/downloads/stalker-anomaly-151-to-152
2. Extract the update into the root of your Anomaly folder
3. Overwrite everything when asked to do so
4. Open the installer with admin rights
5. Click on Update GAMMA data -> Full GAMMA Installation

[north turret]

oh I have the wrong anomaly version ?

wot 'appened?

[willow hawk]

you need to patch it to 1.5.2 as described #old-how-to

[north turret]

I was screwing around in a new save with the debug stuff and it crashed

[native cliff]

Ahhhh I think this is just an ultrawide side effect after all.

[willow hawk]

welcome to xray

[north turret]

random?

[willow hawk]

most likely

[north turret]

bruh

i was about to go CRAZY bro

debug mode on top

I was transported back years ago to when I found the cheats after finishing red dead redemption on my xbox360

[tacit rampart]

Hey, quick question. Let's say that I happened to do a full gamma installation update before updating to 1.5.2, and now I need to run it again as a result. About how long is the delay between full gamma installation checks to not get flagged by moddb as a bot? The installer only says "too often", but in my experience with what websites think is "too often" it's somewhere between 5 minutes and the next 48 hours.

[willow hawk]

2 consecutive should should be safe

3, you'll get flagged

wait 1 or 2h between each try to be on the safe side

[gritty minnow]

Is it worth it to give patches to the mercenaries? I seem to be getting useles artifacts a lot

[willow hawk]

but 2 consecutive should be ok, wait 2h after these 2 tries

[tacit rampart]

Alright, I'll give it another 45ish minutes to be safe and if it flags me, well, well, that is how it is. Appreciated.

Oh, then I will try it again now and just hope for the best.

[willow hawk]

you can try with a VPN or your phone shared 4G

I'm just curious about how you didn't see you need 1.5.2 update

[tacit rampart]

I uh, I misread 1.5.1.2 as 1.5.2

And went 'I'm all up to date!'

Like, I got no one to blame but myself on that, I only realized due to it crashing and seeing your post about 20 minutes go about needing to be in 1.5.2 and realizing that was not 1.5.1.2. 😦

[median lagoon]

sorry for asking again but is this keybind used in gamma?

[tacit rampart]

For whatever it is worth, I've personally never used it. I think it's for scopes that have iron sights on them as well?

[median lagoon]

but what does it do?

[tacit rampart]

Oh, I think it is this mod: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/quick-scope-equipping

It takes the scope off/puts it on quickly, like how the suppressor key works.

[native cliff]

Per the Convo I just had in stalker-general, where can I go to see the loot tables for loadouts/stash spawns? Trying to see if the WA-2000 is possible to find without enabling the console.

[willow hawk]

the key was moved to the MCM hotkey module @median lagoon

[median lagoon]

ahh ok , it kinds of overlap with toggle scope https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/togglescope/ which works while this one does nothing so I am bit confused

[tacit rampart]

I may be mistaken, but that's the only thing I can find that has anything to do with "kb_scope"

[median lagoon]

nevermind I will ignore it

[tacit rampart]

Oh, also, just wanted to say, 2 times does seem to be safe without ModDB flagging

[median lagoon]

might be a left over in gamma 😄

[willow hawk]

yes it is

[gusty lintel]

Can you spawn in objects/props to maybe make a jerry-rigged staircase somewhere?

[north turret]

how do you do a weapon inspect manually?

can you?

[wintry oar]

NPCs refuse to pass this door, in MM.
is this on purpose?

[gusty lintel]

jerry-rigged indeed

[tacit rampart]

I was wondering, has Mag Redux been fixed, or is this hotfix still required? #╭📖faq message

[lofty bluff]

how to kill'

[brisk zinc]

That thing is extremely specific, you don't need to do it at all

[shadow sapphire]

Pull the trigger, don't miss, repeat until it die, you do, or you run out of ammo

[lofty bluff]

mm

thanks friend

[raven sparrow]

like poltergeist but different colour

[tacit rampart]

Ah, then I've broken Mags Redux in some other way it would seem.

[lofty bluff]

would give you my debit card but already gave it out

[brisk zinc]

!mags

[raw raft]

In order to properly enable Mags Redux:

1. Enable Mags Redux (Disable G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload) (the mod under "Optional")
2. Disable G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload on the same key
3. Enable Ammo Check
4. While in game, check your keybinds for reload and unjam

KEEP IN MIND that once you enable Mags Redux, you can't disable it in your current save file. The only safe way to do so, is by loading a save where you don't have the mod enabled or by starting a new game WITHOUT Mags Redux.

[tacit rampart]

Ah, I missed Ammo Check, I am sure not on my game today.

[brisk zinc]

It's a recent thing

[tacit rampart]

Lemme see if this fixes it. Thank you for the prompt response.

Unfortunately no dice. I've got an SKS that seems to be able to shoot without a magazine in it. Reloading it occasionally seems to use the normal reload system, and sometimes uses the magazine system.

[shadow sapphire]

o.0 intriguing. You have my attention. Can you send mod list please?

[tacit rampart]

Yep, want me to just export as the CSV? I can also stream it if you want.

[shadow sapphire]

!modlist

[raw raft]

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

[shadow sapphire]

Just post here

[tacit rampart]

The specific weapon is the wpn_sks_tac and the magazines are mag_sks_7.62x39

[shadow sapphire]

Interesting. Modlist should be good to go as long as you turned the sleep stuff off right. Can you send an xray log of the bug happening?

[tacit rampart]

I've turned on showing the ammo counter for showing this and yeah, let me grab it

what mod does gamma use so that it looks so good

[tacit rampart]

The xray_[windows_username].log fight?

[shadow sapphire]

yes

[shadow sapphire]

theres like 20 something visual mods lol

[magic thunder]

ye but

i downloaded them

and it didn't look like gamma

[shadow sapphire]

send the .bkp

[shadow sapphire]

GAMMA has preset settings and tweaks to all of that, grok built it so it just comes pre setup

[magic thunder]

bruh

[shadow sapphire]

You checked through keybinds and I am assuming thats all good?

[tacit rampart]

Should I be looking for a keybind other than just "reload"?

[magic thunder]

alright then how can i disabl not being able to buy goons and otfits

[shadow sapphire]

Check that reload is what you want with no conflicts, also check unjam, and ammo check, and inspect (should not exists by default, but just incase something weird)

[shadow sapphire]

go to #🤖bot-commands and type !vanilla

[tacit rampart]

@shadow sapphire I'm gonna be real, I think I've wasted your time. What I think it was is that I loaded a save without Ammo Check installed, because now that I have it installed, removing the magazine, then reloading the gun seems to all be working now.

At least, I am unable to reproduce it now.

[shadow sapphire]

Haha no worries. Not a waste of my time, was a good wake up brain exercise.

besides the weird problems are fun to me. Ill literally spend hours working with someone who is kind like you, and has an interesting problem that isnt just "I didnt read the manual"

[tacit rampart]

Want me to ping you if at some point I do manage to reproduce it? I'm like, 99 percent sure at this point it was due to not having ammo check.

Which... I mean, kinda falls under "didn't real the manual"

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah im honestly curious if it happens again, go ahead and ping and close game and immediately send log.

[tacit rampart]

Sure, I'll let you know. I messed around for a few minutes trying to reproduce it and failed. Thanks for the swift support, even if it was user error. 😅

[shadow sapphire]

Anytime, have a good time in GAMMA!

[oak swan]

I ran into a problem don't know if it is on faq , for some reason my whole game is blue (not main menu). any help?

[shadow sapphire]

!modlist

[raw raft]

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

[shadow sapphire]

also trythis

!bluetint

[raw raft]

If you have that annoying blue tint, open your GAMMA folder and go here: .Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_addons/. Then, delete this mod: mod: 188- Enhanced Shaders - KennShade
Now, open your MO2 and reinstall 188- Enhanced Shaders - KennShade and tick:

01 Enhanced Shaders - PBR
02 Enhanced Color Grading
Optional - shader_param controls - simple

[shadow sapphire]

yeah try the stuff above

[rocky crane]

Okay so, if you were to throw down a sleeping bag in a base, would it remain there between different level loads? Cause I have a place I want to make a little 'home away from home' in Pripyat outskirts

[wintry oar]

how .357 HP compares to .45 Hydroshock in raw flesh damage, without taking their anti-armor capabilities into account?

[shadow sapphire]

Ya know thats actually a good question. I havent tested it, but I want to assume so as all the hideout stuff does...

[brisk zinc]

Yes

I have a sleeping bag in Cordon

[minor star]

It should stay, I have done it a couple times but I can't say for sure

[rocky crane]

Okay cool.

[shadow sapphire]

What anti-armor abilities XD honestly .357 is slight worse for mutants than .45 but its nowhere near as expensive.

[minor star]

I think they just mean against flesh

Like .45 HP has a 3x damage while .357 has something between 2-3x

[wintry oar]

well, .357 still has BR 30. good enough for light armored targets.
so .45 Hydro deals even more damage? I'm mainly looking from cost/flesh damage ratio.

okay, thank you

[shadow sapphire]

Oof, cost damage gets complicated. Probably its in .357 favor tbh.

[wintry oar]

hm

[lofty bluff]

seeing emission clouds through walls?

[minor star]

.357 is a better all rounder due to better br pen, .45 is a specialized mutant killer or low armor enemy killer

[shadow sapphire]

Welcome to Xray

[wintry oar]

if only desert eagle had a laser sight upgrade kit, ehh

[shadow sapphire]

Now one of the drawbacks is there is no .357 full auto, or smg that I am aware of, unless one of the pistols upgrades

[wintry oar]

I'm mostly looking for a handgun for running around zone with detector in second hand, and/or cost-effective and powerful anti-mutant option.
Having a SVDS in second slot.

[tidal raft]

You don't need .357 auto.

[sturdy stone]

Check mod-only-postings, there is one

[oak swan]

still chiling in the ocean 😦

[tidal raft]

Press PgUp.

[shadow sapphire]

Wow. Thats amazing

[lofty bluff]

are there any stashes in sin base?

cannot find any

[oak swan]

doesn't do anything 😄

[shadow sapphire]

Who said anything about need, sometimes we just want.

[shadow sapphire]

I mean if they arent marked on your map, then they are empty...

[tidal raft]

Deactivate all filters in ReShade (Home-key)

[lofty bluff]

hrnggg

[shadow sapphire]

im going to regret this For my own curiosity, how long have you spent looking for stashes that are going to be empty?

[tidal raft]

You have done something very wrong.

[oak swan]

yup 😄

[brisk zinc]

Wait, he asked a different thing

"are there any stashes in sin base?"

[tidal raft]

Close application, then type "!cache" in #🤖bot-commands. Follow instructions.

[shadow sapphire]

You gotta read the whole thing: are there any stashes in sin base?
-> cannot find any <- I mean I could be wrong, but to me that sounds like a - fresh start as sin looking for some free loots, or be killed all the sin, and looking for extra loot

[brisk zinc]

I still believe he's asking about a thing to unload his inventory

[shadow sapphire]

@lofty bluff Are you looking to unload your inventory, or are you looking for loot? Falco and I need to know.

[lofty bluff]

nono

i want empty

so i can store stuff

[wintry oar]

Found, thank you.

[lofty bluff]

unload

[brisk zinc]

Larkin lackin'

[shadow sapphire]

Fuck @brisk zinc You win.

[minor star]

There are some inside the base but I don't know their exact location

[oak swan]

@tidal raft @brisk zinc thank you ❤️

[lofty bluff]

auauhaghafnj

[shadow sapphire]

In my defense I am shocked someone actually read, so you know. Learned behavior and all that.

[minor star]

Keep looking around for boxes and stuff

[lofty bluff]

i just want to drop the stone blood and llmc i have in one

why does it hide from me

also

these guys have been stuck since i started my game

[magic thunder]

#╭📖faq message when i delete the file it still doesn't let me buy goons

only when i disable the mod

[lofty bluff]

fuck it.

they can keep it.

[shadow sapphire]

1. Disable G.A.M.M.A. Economy
2. Disable G.A.M.M.A. Economy no BAS injection

[magic thunder]

i kno i did it

but

in this message

[shadow sapphire]

I just copy pasted that directly from the message you linked.

[magic thunder]

it also says if i want to keep the other parts of the economy but get goons i could delet the file

[shadow sapphire]

Oh yeah, I can tell you right now, that is definetly out dated, as gamma uses other presets as well.

[magic thunder]

burh

[brisk zinc]

[magic thunder]

am gonna play ppsh

[lofty bluff]

WHYYYYYYYY

[shadow sapphire]

wait yall didnt know?

[lofty bluff]

I HAVE NO BOX

[magic thunder]

epi

[tidal raft]

No, because I'm not bad at the video game.

[brisk zinc]

Of course not, if people don't report if stuff don't work, how would I know?

• what Aldourien said

[lofty bluff]

I

SWEAR

TO GOD

THIS IS BULLSHIT

[brisk zinc]

The no weapons/no armors stuff is literally the best feature of GAMMA, literally what I love the most

[shadow sapphire]

AH okay, well to make it simple gamma traders have their related preset, their nato/wp preset, and then the base trader preset, plus then also the discounts preset.

[brisk zinc]

@lofty bluff you're posting in the #🔨base-gamma-support

[lofty bluff]

why must the game hate me

[brisk zinc]

That's a question so it's fitting

Skill issue is the answer

[brisk zinc]

If you can throw something together about it, I can add it to the guide

[shadow sapphire]

Tbh, you basically would have to delete all presets entirely, which would get them selling guns, but then they wont sell any mod stuff.

Which means you no longer have gamma economy.

[brisk zinc]

I'll just delete the thing about keeping the economy then

It's just impossible

[shadow sapphire]

Basically yes.

I know I am usually a play your own way person, but honestly, why play gamma in that case?

[brisk zinc]

Because it contains the "most successful mods" on Moddb, all crammed in a mod list and they just works™️

[lofty bluff]

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah I guess. I have to admit, it works a dream, even doing some small things, I still dont know how grok got this to such a polished state.

[fair vigil]

how do i get discord to show it like that, do i need to be streaming?

[soft niche]

how do i install a reshade?

[cursive jackal]

Alright, I'm yielding this question to you guys because I can't seem for the life of me figure it out.

I'm looking for one of those RF Packages you occasionally get it's on 175MHz in the location of Cordon.

I've Narrowed the location to the farm/northern farm but I cannot find this damn thing.

[shrewd basin]

It might be inside a bush

I've had that kind of luck with them before

[shadow sapphire]

Hold F while searching, you want the beeping to be as fast as possible, its an item not a box

[fresh moth]

I just started Gamma, unfortunately I suffer with motion sickness and am finding the actor cam movement a bit of a problem. ((when sprinting)
I have head bobbing set to Zero. Are there any options I can mess with to resolve this ?

[wintry oar]

Worst immersion killer by far, imho. Good it's a modular modpack, though.
edit: doing first playthrough on vanilla setting anyway, to get the "feel"

[edgy echo]

Thats a question I asked myself lots of time lol

[shadow sapphire]

Check motion blur, it is usually the #1 cause of motion sickness

[edgy echo]

Theres a mod that add camera movements, search it in your mod option menu (camera reanim or smth like this). I couldn't stand the walk/run anims myself. Hope this is what you're searching for

[fresh moth]

yes, i was looking at that (camera reanimation inertia ) but when i uncheck it the game crashes on start.

[lime ibex]

Do you have (iirc) the lamp artefact? It light up the package

[shadow sapphire]

Hmmmm let me take a look at that mod, can you send the crash please and maybe I can find a way to safely disable it.

[fresh moth]

is that the Xray.txt or am i looking for something else ?

[north turret]

Is my hud bugged? My guy screams when I run (I've used first aid + post heal items), it seems like I have a duplicate HUD, there's two of each character if you can see the HUD. Like two T's, one white and one black

[shadow sapphire]

yup xray.txt

[shadow sapphire]

Hit h

[north turret]

Hitting H switches between all black and this duplicate white-black version

Is it supposed to be like that?

[shadow sapphire]

There should be 3 modes with H, you can also try numpad enter. Are you able to interact with things?

[edgy echo]

I had crash myself when changing mcm options sometimes. Check you don't have any axr_options.ltx in the Anomaly/gamedata folder also. Usually I'm able to launch the game if I retry though.

[north turret]

Yes I've tried both 3 modes, tried numpad enter as well. Numpad does work correctly, hiding/showing my companions etc

[shadow sapphire]

Also disable G.A.M.M.A camera reanimation fixes mod its under the gamma fixes serperator

[shadow sapphire]

!modlist

[raw raft]

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

[north turret]

There you go - I've also disabled the shader mods as instructed, fyi

[graceful cosmos]

I've not played Gamma for a few months and recently updated the data and found that all the pistols in the game, even the ones I knew had working jam animations like the 1911's, no longer play the unjam animation but rather disappear off screen and then re-emerge unjammed like some pistols did when I last played.
The only exception to this seems to be the Korth pistol which does play the unjam animation properly but has a tendency to completely disappear offscreen when sprinting with it and then just stays invisible until I equip another weapon and select it again.
I'm not using any custom mods or anything out of the ordinary, 331 mods active - the 2 extra being "Npc's can't see through foliage" and the ANUS name update, confused as to what's causing it

[fresh moth]

YES ! thank you so much that did the trick. Thx very much for your help. 🙂

[shadow sapphire]

kk Taking a look now

[shadow sapphire]

No worries. I also have motion sickness with games, so I felt your pain!

[north turret]

Thanks a lot

[shadow sapphire]

Ok next question have you turned on any animations that were not on by default?

[north turret]

Nope, haven't touched anything at all that I can remember, I kept by the instructions

[shadow sapphire]

Im not sure about jam animations, but the update yesterday did affect sprinting animations. There is a fix pending for it, you can also find the file in #🖇old-mods-posting and replace the file in the mod41 folder

[north turret]

Like, just to make it clear that I didn't do anything wrong IG, I've used both first aid and post aid after a gunfight, though my guy keeps screaming and loosing HP when I run. I'm not near my carrying limit or anything neither

[shadow sapphire]

You are quickly becoming a favorite of mine. Ok, so besides the wonky hud, anything else wierd? (my guess is the hud is scuffed right now, so you probably have an injury you cant see)

[north turret]

Not that I could point out. Is that stamina bar supposed to be full too? Cause it seems all black as well, along with the radiation one. I was getting injured from radiation, took some pills to fix that, the bar didn't change at all

The hud just doesn't do anything at all, it's there in short.

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah it should be full the stamina.

[shadow sapphire]

let me ping @brisk zinc because I feel like there is an easy fix for this, and I just dont know it.

[north turret]

And you could see there's like 1-2px of white in the beginning of each bear, I guess that's from that white-black duplicate state.

Alrighty, thanks a lot again for your time

[shadow sapphire]

Falco hes got the messed up BHS hud thing, enter (num) and H did not work. No other issues

[graceful cosmos]

It's quite confusing because I'm 100% sure that weapons like the Lebedev, all the 1911 variatons except the lottery burst one and most other pistols had a proper unjam animations last I played, but pistols like the Deagle and some others just had the default no animation unjam of going offscreen and then reappearing unjammed, now it seems all of them except the Korth and I think the Makarov are missing it

[north turret]

Can I link the youtube video I've uploaded with the issue here?

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah thats fine

[shadow sapphire]

Hmmm, try the fix in #🖇old-mods-posting message and see if I broke more than just sprint anims with my botched update. (Sorry, I promise I do test stuff, I just ironically grabbed weapons that all had good anims without realizing it.)

[dark bane]

How can I trade an armor for another one? I have a PS5-B Battle Armor with 9% condition and want to change it to one of the Free Stalkers, but when I talk to Sidorovich and say Ive got a Medium Armor (i tried also all other options), he doesnt change it. Does the Armor need better condition to be changed?

[shadow sapphire]

go to #🤖bot-commands and type !outfit

[shadow sapphire]

I believe there is no minimum condition, but it does need the patch on it still, the originaly patch I believe.

[pure matrix]

im on a 3440x1440 monitor, is there any way to get my hotbar to show up?

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah I know thats a thing, and I am afraid of it being busy hands. I just dont remember the specific issue if it isnt. Falco does I am sure. Let me take a look through #╭📖faq and #🤖bot-commands for you real quick.

[shadow sapphire]

Hot bar?

[graceful cosmos]

I've replaced the file and it fixed the pistols from disappearing while sprinting but for some reasons guns I'm sure had proper unjam animations (1911's) are still missing them

[pure matrix]

yeah the F1-F4 part of my HUD where my meds are bound doesnt show up

[shadow sapphire]

Okay, I was pretty sure I didnt break that, but figured since I had a fix for some animations, might see if it fixed the ones you are talking about to. After all we are dealing with xray. To be honest its possible they were disabled due to the busy hands issue.

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah it doesnt in GAMMA hud...

[pure matrix]

oh okay good to know thought it was a bug, what submod covers that?

[graceful cosmos]

The only reason I'm so sure of it is because I tend to only use weapons that have all the proper animations, and that used to be 1911's and AK's 😄

[shadow sapphire]

GAMMA minimalist HUD, but I dont believe you can just disable that as it is tied into BHS. I would try asking in #🔨modded-gamma-support

[shadow sapphire]

A lot of models have also been changed to different ones. But my honest assumption would be some have been disabled for busyhands reasons.

Lets try a couple things, 1 - if you start a new game is it still bugged?>

[north turret]

Lemme try

[nimble cargo]

Is there any reason that i can;t create or load a game in Anomaly? It always crashes during a creation

[north turret]

Nope, still persists

[shadow sapphire]

!crash

[raw raft]

Send your crash log where it was asked, 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.

[shadow sapphire]

Ok, close game and tell me if any red boxes in m02, also can you send your xray log? If you dont know how (goto #🤖bot-commands and type !crash)

[nimble cargo]

Most recent attempt

[shadow sapphire]

Which version of anomaly are you on?

[north turret]

Oh well I fixed it

[shadow sapphire]

oh?

[north turret]

Seems I've forgot reshade's "UI Mask bottom" on

[shadow sapphire]

AHHHHHHHHH lol well, glad its fixed.

[nimble cargo]

Should be the most up to date version, i just did an update overnight

[north turret]

Turning it off got the hud back to normal immediately

Jesus... I should've thought of it lol. Thanks for your time

[shadow sapphire]

Not gamma, anomaly. You need to be on 1.5.2 and it looks like you are on 1.5.1.2

[shadow sapphire]

No worries, glad its fixed! Have fun in GAMMA

[nimble cargo]

So, that sounds like either another update or reinstall?

[shadow sapphire]

Go to #🤖bot-commands and type !152 and follow that. Yes saves are compatible, no you can not carry over any .ltx files. And no it wont download anything thats up to date again.

[nimble cargo]

Outstanding, Thanks

[pure matrix]

Debug fast travel is charging me money, how do i disable that, im testing some stuff

[shadow sapphire]

limited fast travel settings in MCM menu

[north turret]

Ok so to make it clear, my guy's still hurt because of my leg's condition right? I need to fix him another post-aid item?

[shadow sapphire]

First aid, then post heal, yes your leg is hurt enough that running will harm you.

[north turret]

Great, you're a legend, thanks again ❤️

[tacit rampart]

@shadow sapphire Well, I've done it again, and I have absolutely no idea how. I noticed it was pulling ammo from my inventory directly when I reloaded rather than using the magazines.

[nimble cargo]

@shadow sapphire, Fast question, when it asks for root, that should be just the anomaly folder where the mod is stored, not the version i currently have?
