🔨base-gamma-support

[heavy haven]

not all items fix torso

i think yadulin wont but ibu will

[rustic dome]

+1

[heavy haven]

but there is some other injectors

[versed tusk]

items tell you what part they heal A H T L

[heavy haven]

yeah and then if it says post heal it turns white

[rustic dome]

yea it could be cool

[heavy haven]

also if you hover over item the health on the left will give you a preview

[dense cargo]

ecologists have barred all loners due to increase in artefact/medical thieving

[fickle briar]

is there any option (or adding/removing mods) to remove the cooldown between quicksaves?

[dense cargo]

would prolly just be annoying tho if it happens when you're trying to turn in quests lmao

[versed tusk]

check YACS in mcm

[rustic dome]

yeah open mod manager menu and disable it in YACS

[fickle briar]

no option to remove the cd

[versed tusk]

without a CD you can turn it off anyway

as it is like not using YACS

[fickle briar]

ye that's the plan, which mod is the save one exactly?

[versed tusk]

take a guess

[rustic dome]

idk, you could try turning off the mod but its just easier to set everything to 0 and disable everything and it will work

[rustic dome]

yet another campfire mod

or whatever

something like this

YACS in shortcut

[fickle briar]

can't set it to 0, that's the problem, there is no cooldown slider, i'll just disable it

[rustic dome]

wait lemme show you how i did it

before you accidentally uninstall windows32

[fickle briar]

i just disabled the mod n 203 (yacs better campfire saves)

[versed tusk]

there's a guide

[fickle briar]

should be that 1 judjing by name

[versed tusk]

#🤖bot-commands !yacs

[rustic dome]

yeah you propably just deleted windows 👏

could have just do this

and the mod technically is loaded but doesnt exist

[fickle briar]

oh tought removing option just limited where you could save even more

like that way can't even save for ""free"" on campfire but only after 4mins

[rustic dome]

no

[fickle briar]

welp the more you know

[rustic dome]

you can save anytime you want

idk how it works

but yeah i can save like in vanilla stalker game

[fickle briar]

nice

also, noticed some mods are disabled by default, it's because they'r unstable or just deemed not "right"?

like "body dots on minimap"

[versed tusk]

it depends

[fleet glacier]

would ruin immersion i think

[versed tusk]

everything under "disabled" dont touch - optional stuff is mostly OK but I would always ask. also, once you use optionals you cant get normal support anymore but need to go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

just FYI

[fleet glacier]

for dead bodies there pda 3.0

[north turret]

so items just above 10 percent require the part repair kit?

[rustic dome]

in most cases there is a reason in mod title

if they are not in GAMMA Disabled or GAMMA cool mods that have issues or whatever then i think its save to enable them

[brisk zinc]

!disabled

[raw raft]

Mods under the G.A.M.M.A Disabled category are disabled for a variety of reasons: compatibility, performance, bugs, busy hands, etc. DO NOT ENABLE THEM FOR ANY REASON.

After reading this you'll probably ask: "But why are those mods there if you can't activate them?". Because G.A.M.M.A. as a whole is STILL IN BETA, and no, Grok can't simply remove them. Version 1.0 will have a clean mod list.
And you'll also ask: "What about the other disabled mods that aren't under the "Disabled" category, then?". Don't enable them if you don't know what you're doing. Ask in #🔨base-gamma-support before doing anything.

DO NOT ENABLE ANIMATIONS THAT ARE DISABLED BY DEFAULT, IN MCM IN GAME OR ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE MOD LIST, they're disabled for the same reasons written above. If you use them, forget about #old-bugs or #🔨base-gamma-support, don't use these two channels. Use #🔨modded-gamma-support instead.

[fickle briar]

they are not under disabled

in doubt i'll just leave as is tho

[rustic dome]

enable them if you want them

but do it at your own risk lol

might just delete windows again

[brisk zinc]

Like Skom said, "it depends"

[rustic dome]

or steal your ip

nobody knows

[brisk zinc]

It's more quick for you and for us if you just ask what you want to enable

• if you read, there's something about it in the command

[rustic dome]

kick me then, i broke the rules, i have no idea wtf im doing but i enabled and disabled some mods 😐

[fickle briar]

like this

[rustic dome]

who uses minimap anyways

[fickle briar]

putting pda in and out for npc its annoying

for quest npc or stashes

[north turret]

how does one zoom in on pda so i can read guides

[fickle briar]

R

[rustic dome]

or left click

[north turret]

can you zoom in futher than that?

[fickle briar]

the map with the middle mouse button+

guides idk

[rustic dome]

get some glasses bro

or bigger monitor idk

[north turret]

i do lol
had to open it in faq

[rustic dome]

no faq u

[brisk zinc]

You didn't broke anything, chill

And stop insulting other users, thank you

[rustic dome]

😭

where are you from falco

[gusty glen]

is #old-framerate-optimisation still up to date ? i tried to disable addons following the instruction but then everything were like super bright, didn't look the same the last time i played, which was around RC 3.0

[brisk zinc]

Yes it should be

Maybe you aren't up-to-date with something else

[gusty glen]

i just updated gamma 5 days ago

[brisk zinc]

Okay but what about the installer?

!questions

[raw raft]

Please, answer these questions, help us to better understand your problem.

YOUR MOD LIST MUST BE VANILLA. Any other mod added by you or that isn't enabled by default is considered as a "modded mod list" and you should ask in #🔨modded-gamma-support.

1. GAMMA doesn't work anymore with Anomaly 1.5.1, have you updated to 1.5.2? (if you didn't, go in #🤖bot-commands, type and send !152)
2. Using Windows 7 or Windows 11 instead of Windows 10? Go in #🤖bot-commands, type and send !windows7 or !windows11
3. Where do you keep Anomaly and GAMMA? We need the full path of these two folders.
   ^If you're using Desktop/Downloads/Documents/One Drive/Program Files or Programs Files (x86), move everything out of there.
4. How many active mods do you have in your mod list? The default is #📍577-mods-in-mo2
5. Have you enabled or disabled something? Can you see any red crosses in your mod list?
6. IF ASKED, send your crash log and your mod, go in #🤖bot-commands, type and send: !crash and !modlist

(I'll add more if I can think of any, suggestions are appreciated)

[brisk zinc]

Here, it's quicker

[gusty glen]

yes i did update to 1.5.2

because i tried to update then run with 1.5.1 it crashed

[dense cargo]

shiet, might have already been asked but.. duty expansion needs a fresh save?

[gusty glen]

like, i run gamme without any shaders and graphics pretty much default, the lightning reflection is really bright

[willow hawk]

no

be careful though

[dense cargo]

im already pretty late game so might just wait til i start a new faction

[winged ether]

im doing the scientist's quest in Dark Valley to find the three artifacts on that map, but there wasnt any quest artifact in the Bubble Baths anomaly. I went on top of the vats where the acid anomalies are and I have a good detector but I dont see any artifacts except for this random Meat Chunk which didnt progress the quest. Am I missing something?

[dense cargo]

yeah.. unfortunately you probably gotta use debug mode to spawn the artefact

[winged ether]

cool ty, how do I do that?

[heavy haven]

are isg there if i just started the game as merc or do i need to progress the main story

[rustic dome]

in the anomaly launcher turn on debug mode

while in game press f7

and you will figure it out yourself with ease

dont accidentally press W while in debug menu tho

you will regret it

trust me.

i know this shit ok?

you dont want to press W

[solid pilot]

Always quicksave before using the debug mode. Will save you headaches

[dense cargo]

theres an item spawner with different categories. one thing, if you feel like, is just to keep spawning the "quest artefacts" until you get the notification, then revert the save and only spawn that one. The #╭📖faq has an entry for this but somehow the ! commands are gone and couldnt find the name

[rustic dome]

but the rest is so simple that even my 2 last braincells can process it with no problem

goodnight yankees

junkiees

lol

[solid pilot]

Adios

[brisk zinc]

What command do you need?

They're all inside #🤖bot-commands now

[dense cargo]

ah, thanks. im a boomer and just now realized i can open a side tab for pinned messages

[winged ether]

cool that worked, ty all

[loud glacier]

there is any way to turn off the voice of my character ? every time a pick up a weapon he make strange noises

[dense cargo]

!voice

[raw raft]

Disable 15- Voiced Actor - DesmanMetzger and G.A.M.M.A. Voiced Actor in MO2.
You can disable them safely even in the middle of your playthrough.

[dense cargo]

or through the mod config menu in ESC? at least volume wise

i finished living legend and ||halfway through mortal sin -> if you play as the unlocked factions do they have quest lines or is it all continuous quests from living legend?||

[solid drift]

Does someone really know how to activate PSU "engine" for exo? Its says to double tap x but It doesnt seems to work

[astral condor]

what's your sprint button?

[lofty merlin]

is anyone else crashing from trying to craft the st_placeable_gas_lamp?

[bleak anvil]

how do you get repair kits for better guns? all i can find / buy is handgun repair kits and i'm stuck with my starting weapon and havent upgraded for ages

[lofty merlin]

@bleak anvil better tools (Advanced/Expert) can craft them or find them or buy them as you increases your reputation with said faction

[desert slate]

How can I go about removing the swaying when taking drugs to restore my white health? :)

[versed tusk]

You'll need Basic, Advanced and then Expert tools

[bleak anvil]

is there a guide on crafting tools?

[versed tusk]

with those, you craft repair kits

[versed tusk]

if you take yadulin, use an energy drink, glucose shots or caffeine tablets after

[versed tusk]

find a Basic Tool Kit in stashes, then right click it and open the workbench - thats it

[desert slate]

Oh awesome! Thanks :)

[lofty merlin]

@bleak anvil just click on the options when you right click and use a toolkit(Basic/Advanced/Expert) in those options you'll have your repair kits click on it, and it'll show you what you need to craft it

[bleak anvil]

ok thanks

[winged ether]

does the disguise system prevent you from disguising if your rep is too high like in vanilla Anomaly?

[lofty merlin]

@winged ether shouldn't, are you wearing a full covering mask?

@winged ether they made the AI more intuitive, you gotta stash your weapons/armors from THAT faction, cover your face, wear armor with the patch on, even then you have a limited time to be in there and to get out, and try not to run or draw attention by doin overt things

[winged ether]

i havent tried yet, im just curious before I spend resources to fix up another suit. I remember in vanilla Anomaly after a certain point it would say "You cant disguise as X, everyone knows you're Y" when trying to disguise

[lofty merlin]

@winged ether that was supposedly fixed

[winged ether]

cool ty

[lofty merlin]

@brissn i havent had an issue like that as long as you do the mentioned above

[dense cargo]

I cant seem to get quick companion teleport to work (default J) even though i checked it in the list

it just moves my screen slightly when i press it

[brisk zinc]

Spam it

Do a 360 and spam it

Yes I'm serious

[dense cargo]

😮

[lofty merlin]

@dense cargo more points if you can pull a 50/50 grind 😄

[dense cargo]

WOW wtf lol

[winged ether]

I remember reading fast travel is enabled by default - how do you use that? Besides paying guides

[lofty merlin]

@winged ether PDA zoom in/out right click the green house on map and you can select Fast Travel Cost/Fast Travel

@winged ether try turning off Area if you cant click on the icon

[bleak anvil]

Does anyone know where this stash is?

its in the clear sky camp near the bartender

i cant find it -_

-_-

[solid drift]

Of course x

[vagrant falcon]

how to remove this?

[shadow sapphire]

Mcm settings mags disable hud

[vagrant falcon]

ok tnx mate

[fickle briar]

f i kill a single guy from x neutral faction
does all the faction agro me?
or just the guy squad

[compact birch]

if thats the one im thinking of, you look at the radio between the bars of a window in the back of his room, the stash is the radio

[bleak anvil]

thanks ill try it out

[compact birch]

its a bit tricky iirc like only one angle works

[shadow sapphire]

Not the whole faction. But occasionally you will meet hostile members

You can pay them off at npcs such as aid or barman though

[lofty merlin]

is anyone else crashing from trying to craft the Battery Torch or Gas Lamp for the hideout features

[summer ridge]

help my game crash when I create a new game :(((

[digital turret]

Hello, can someone tell me where I can get the BaS mod for gamma, and if it can be installed?

[grizzled raven]

its pre installed alongside gamma

just do full installation

[grizzled raven]

!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.

[grizzled raven]

then post it in #old-bugs

[lofty merlin]

is anyone else crashing when they Craft in the workbench for either the Gas Lamp or Metal Torch recipes

[digital turret]

I see but I didn't get to see it reflected in my game

[grizzled raven]

bas weapons are all ingame

[digital turret]

how can i check that

[grizzled raven]

debug menu

[digital turret]

OK I will see

[bleak anvil]

is there a storage crate in the clear sky base that i can use?

[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.

[shadow sapphire]

Yes in the bar go around to the side and door

Or make one

[digital turret]

I was looking at the debug and I didn't find anything, I tried to install the mod manually and I get an incompatibility error

[grizzled raven]

reinstall gamma

chances are you just missed the weapons though

[patent siren]

Hi all, I saw that Grok's newer update requires a "full install". Does that mean I need to re-download the mod pack again? Wanted to make sure before I my ModDB gets locked again lol

[bleak anvil]

@shadow sapphire where are you referring to?

[knotty storm]

When there's a patch do we just do "Update GAMMA Data" + Only Install gamma addons ?

[shadow sapphire]

Literally the building go around the side there is a radio that is a stash

[shadow sapphire]

Some yes, others no. #📢announcements will say do a full install as needed other wise do what you said.

[pure matrix]

i have a question about debug outfit editor, im trying to make a test edit to the Nomad suit.

how does one unpack a .ltx file, and does Nomad have a different name in the files? it doesnt appear in gamedata>configs>items>outfits

[river forge]

With the new BR system, how does it interact with bullet and or other resistances? Should I just rely on the bars in the inventory to gauge defense?

[grizzled raven]

#│📚manual message

[south belfry]

hey all, new here and im in a bad way. one of my legs is completely down to zero. im trying to bandage and then heal with a medkit but it doesn't heal. im not sure how to heal my limbs? i can't sleep because im not tired to heal. what should i do?

[grizzled raven]

!heal

[raw raft]

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

[winged ether]

I think it always applies ballistic resistance as defense vs bullets

[river forge]

Thank you missed that part in the manual

It says from Player to NPC not the other way around

[winged ether]

melee attacks are generally rupture, and gravity/telekinesis is impact. I might be missing some other impact ones tho

[grizzled raven]

pretty sure impact affects bleeding too

[river forge]

So I assume that means the BR value is mainly for NPCs, and serves more as a quick reference versus the reg ballistic resistance for me choosing a suit?

Also are grenades rupture impact or ballistic?

[south belfry]

Thank you! I kept thinking I needed a first aid kit after bandage, didn't realize the post-heal modifier!

[river forge]

I’m pretty sure medkits don’t post heal. At least they don’t in my game

[west horizon]

Hi, I need help because I screwed up and hit reset on the keyboard binds and now I have it messed up 🥲

[river forge]

Generally medkits and bandages apply first aid and something like Yadulin or Ibuprofen post heals

[shadow sapphire]

!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

[west horizon]

thx

[river forge]

Also this might be an obvious question but are normal artifacts also supposed to degrade similar to junk artifacts?

[grizzled raven]

no

[river forge]

Okay thanks

I thought mine was mucking up but I think I just messed up in the settings is all

[rain barn]

How do I heal my limbs?

Im using a health kit but its not healing them

https://i.imgur.com/eLFnBhr.png

[minor star]

!heal

[raw raft]

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

[rain barn]

Thanks, I thought the yellow was where it was healing too, so I have been waiting

wasted many many medkits

[minor star]

It takes a bit of learning, but you get used to it

After a bit of time you'll just remember which item does what and you won't need to stop to check

[rain barn]

I understood all of it except that the yellow was temporary

https://i.imgur.com/Vbudnpv.png

Been playing for hours, have probably spent like 90% of my money on first aid

[bleak anvil]

@shadow sapphire im not sure if im just stupid but i cant find this radio

[shadow sapphire]

It's literally in the building with him you have to like peek at it

[minor star]

Peek through the window

[shadow sapphire]

Opening by the door to the right of his shed

[minor star]

At the side

[bleak anvil]

holy fuck i found it

thank you all

what the fuck

so hard to find

[rain barn]

So Im in a position where I have no money, Im not tired enough to sleep, and my limbs are absolutely destroyed. What can I do?

I have essentially softlocked the game

I dont have enough things to make my tired either, and no money to buy

[shadow sapphire]

Do you have tools?

[rain barn]

I have a swiss knife

thats it

[grizzled raven]

newgame

[shadow sapphire]

Do you have stash locations on your pda?

[shadow sapphire]

No

[rain barn]

Nothing close enough

[grizzled raven]

how many hours so far

[buoyant stump]

cooking field kit?

[shadow sapphire]

It's not a soft lock

[rain barn]

probably about 7-8

[grizzled raven]

cause you could be saving yourself from suffering if you start a new game

[shadow sapphire]

Cubed that's not real advice man.

[rain barn]

I dont have any resources to cook food or craft anything

[astral condor]

Eh the beauty of the game is in the suffering lol

[buoyant stump]

now that's a tough situation

[shadow sapphire]

Send a picture of your inventory

[grizzled raven]

i guess you could try to get easy missions for money

[rain barn]

I agree, but this is a bad "suffering"

[minor star]

I'm trying to think on how to help this man

[minor star]

Do this

[astral condor]

If you have some sleeping pills, pop one

[buoyant stump]

agreed

[grizzled raven]

something like search the stash

[rain barn]

I dont have sleeping pills

[grizzled raven]

aint that bad

except for the limb health

[minor star]

Limbs are fucked

[rain barn]

I cant go anywhere

[minor star]

Only way for you to realistically heal them would be sleep

[rain barn]

But not tired enough to sleep

[shadow sapphire]

Plenty to work with here

Ok it looks like you are at farm right?

[rain barn]

Yeah

I can sell my gear, I guess

but then I might as well start a new game lol

[shadow sapphire]

Sell mechanic any ammo that isn't buck shot or fmj

As well as the ammo crafting stuff

[astral condor]

And buy some post heal items

[shadow sapphire]

Let me know how much money you get

[rain barn]

trader doesnt have any ibuprofen

[astral condor]

Yadulin is the best in that regard

[astral condor]

Yadulin, go yadulin early on

[shadow sapphire]

Loris doesn't have any post heal

[buoyant stump]

also see if the guys buy those mutant parts

[shadow sapphire]

Also sell mutant parts, syringes, and jars you get a million of them

[buoyant stump]

if you get enough money for booze maybe it would work

[minor star]

If you get enough money, sleeping pills would be a priority I think

[shadow sapphire]

Sell the mirrors too

[minor star]

A good night of sleep should be enough to heal your limbs enough to move around and fight a bit

From there, just be careful with any enemy encounter and try to do some easy jobs

[buoyant stump]

reason I suggested alcohol is because the sleeping pills are on the pricier side I think

[shadow sapphire]

The big issue is the armor though. What happened with it

[buoyant stump]

anyway you got only 3 bars of sleep so you don't need much

[grizzled raven]

probably picked it up

from a dead loner

[buoyant stump]

prob

[rain barn]

Yeah, just found it damaged

[shadow sapphire]

Is it better than what you had?

[rain barn]

yes lol

[buoyant stump]

damn bro ur stacked

[rain barn]

It was about equal, but it has a artifact slot

also thats the trade

FUCK

[buoyant stump]

oh

[buoyant stump]

lmaooo

[rain barn]

I just died trying to trade

[shadow sapphire]

Ohhhjh

[rain barn]

he didnt have any alcohol or pills

[astral condor]

were you bleeding?

[shadow sapphire]

Wait.

[minor star]

He has alcohol

[rain barn]

I wasnt bleeding

[shadow sapphire]

You're bugged

[minor star]

[shadow sapphire]

Look at his bhs hud cro

[minor star]

Yeah

I can see it

Man's got no health

[shadow sapphire]

And no psy?

And is alive?

[minor star]

That tiny bit of arm health is keeping him alive

[shadow sapphire]

Did you turn on any animations?

[rain barn]

lol no

I was just in the trader menu

[minor star]

Honestly, at this point I'd say it's best to load a previous save and try not to get hurt as much

[rain barn]

selling stuff

[shadow sapphire]

His torso is blacked he shouldn't ve alive

[buoyant stump]

could be visual glitch, restart game

I've had that one before

[rain barn]

https://i.imgur.com/97Ui7lG.jpeg

[shadow sapphire]

Now hit enter on num pad and send screen shot

[rain barn]

my last save was thankfully slightly before I spent a shitload on first aid

[minor star]

Try to spend that money on some Yadulin

[shadow sapphire]

And just to be sure. You did not check any boxes in the fdda menu?

[astral condor]

One medkit and one yadulin is better than 2 medkits

[rain barn]

https://i.imgur.com/gw6zi4x.jpeg

Yeah I havent touched any settings

[shadow sapphire]

Oh hit h

[buoyant stump]

yeah, maybe energy drinks to counter dizziness also

[shadow sapphire]

Where is your psy bar

[minor star]

Close the inventory when you take the screenshot btw

Opening the inv hides your psy bar

[rain barn]

https://i.imgur.com/1huFhd9.jpeg

[shadow sapphire]

Oh fuck me I forgot. Thanks cro

[rain barn]

Enter hides the psy bar

does H just refresh?

[shadow sapphire]

H switches modes

[minor star]

H changes the BHS hud a bit

[rain barn]

What does it change to?

[minor star]

Press H and see for yourself, it's not a game breaking thing

Just a bit more/less info

It has 3 modes you can cycle through

No hud, partial hud and full info hud

[shadow sapphire]

Also @minor star @buoyant stump thanks 😊

[buoyant stump]

[minor star]

Np

If I can make the mods life a little easy here I'll try my best

[buoyant stump]

same here

[minor star]

Too bad I don't really know how to fix/spot bugs, my knowledge is in gameplay things

[rain barn]

https://i.imgur.com/bQK5Bcs.jpeg

Thanks for the help guys

[buoyant stump]

you got it

[rain barn]

wait what kind of sick fucking joke is this https://i.imgur.com/fP1UlXv.jpeg

[minor star]

Not enough sleep

[buoyant stump]

[minor star]

Your libs are too hurt, you'll need more time for them to heal fully

[buoyant stump]

woke up early? or just not enough hours

[minor star]

But also, if you are not too tired you'll just wake up early

[rain barn]

So my limbs are too broken to do anything, and sleeping is the only way I can fix them, then I am screwed

[minor star]

Can you buy some Yadulin?

[rain barn]

No

There is no yadulin or ibuprofen for sale

[minor star]

Sleeping pills? So you can go back to sleep?

[rain barn]

No sleeping pills either

[buoyant stump]

he doesn't have em

[rain barn]

I drank all my alcohol and what the trader had

but I guess it wasnt enough for a restful sleep?

[buoyant stump]

how many hours did you sleep btw

[rain barn]

It was around 12pm, so like, 17hr?

[buoyant stump]

that's actually a lot, I don't think even 24h would've healed it all then

[rain barn]

Well fuck me lol

[minor star]

Torso and head take a lot of hours to heal after all

[buoyant stump]

only option is taking easy quests and let your guys do them then

if it involves shooting

[minor star]

Get some money and buy Yadulin

[rain barn]

Ain’t no yadulin for sale

[buoyant stump]

don't remember if the farm guy sold it. I know sidrovich does tho if you have some money and will to take a walk down there

[rain barn]

I’m just going to launch in debug and spawn some shit

[minor star]

Fair enough

[buoyant stump]

your game dude, no problem in that

[rain barn]

Just going to spawn ibuprofen or something

[shadow sapphire]

No one here is gonna mock you for that. As we don't care how you play your game. Point out mods is to play how you want.

[minor star]

Don't get addicted to the power debug gives

[rain barn]

in and out

Just one little thing

[buoyant stump]

true lol

[rain barn]

And then that’s it!

I’m glad there is at least a debug option

Because a situation like this is just not fun lol

[buoyant stump]

even though bugs happen and it's handy to have it on i force myself to disable it every time

[rain barn]

It’s not the type of struggle I want

[buoyant stump]

go for it dude 👍

[river forge]

Well that’s the point of it being modular right

To play how you want to play

[winged ether]

does killing stalkers with headshots increase the chance of them dropping their armor?

[grizzled raven]

no

[viscid zephyr]

How does one go to the red forest without dying in less than 1 minute

[terse sun]

I accidentally disconnected the internet cable when I was performing full instalation, can I just close the installer and start the procedure again?

[terse sun]

git gud, git gear, git psy helmet, start blasting 🙂

[viscid zephyr]

I don't even know what a psy helmet is

[terse sun]

that's why you're dying in 1 minute 😄

[viscid zephyr]

I can't find any

[terse sun]

you have to buy it

from sakharov in yantar

30k RU

buy the calibrated version

[viscid zephyr]

At what level?

[terse sun]

any

need to wait 2 ingame days for the calibration to finish though

[viscid zephyr]

Thank you I'll go check

[nimble cargo]

What was the debug command to no clip? Door to x18 inner bunker area witht he notes isnt opening

[brisk zinc]

Numpad 0 -> Enter when you cross the door

[nimble cargo]

thx

[gritty minnow]

Is the x-18 exoskeleton good?

[north turret]

I have a mp5 parts are 20 percent what is the best way to repair them? i had a look at the guide and the only way i can see so far is the parts repair kit?

[main raft]

welp. @brisk zinc @astral condor. It didn't work out. My new cpu is a lga 1200, the one i have now on my motherboard is a lga1152. so it didnt fit. and also i noticed my cpu i currenlty have has smashed/smothered pins. So it's time left is very limited....fun day

spent four-five hours diagnosing and fixing all that

[buoyant stump]

loot other parts for it, you have to replace them. how is the barrel btw?

[north turret]

77 percent

so just take other parts from smg's?

[astral condor]

Fuck man I'm sorry. Maybe a new mobo won't hurt? Either way, please don't let one incident ruin your mood. Save up, buy a cheap mobo, put in your new CPU and enjoy

If you want, I can research some good mobos for you

Though we'd have to move to #╟❓general-offtopic lol, but I'd gladly help you out brother

[main raft]

i built this pc. its been 5 years

its time to upgrade the mobo

[astral condor]

That's the spirit! Nothing's lost, don't worry

[main raft]

looking at a z490 pro msi rn

and a new fractal tempered glass case. now all i need. is money

[astral condor]

Absolutely take your time with that bro, don't put yourself in a bad financial situation for a PC

[main raft]

i can always just refinance pull out a second morgage ona house. no big deal

lmao

[astral condor]

Well either way good luck

[astral condor]

Yeah any part above 60% is an absolute must keep

[main raft]

^

[north turret]

sweet

[main raft]

find a smg or weapon with a good barrel and just cannibalize other smgs to make that one better

field strip stuff all the time

thats how i make lottsa money

[north turret]

i made the mistake of removing the barrel from it and destroying it so had to reload a save

[main raft]

oh no lmao

so why do we not use core 0 on anomaly?

whats up with that

[astral condor]

Cuz some system process run on it

We're trying to force anomaly to use an unused core

[main raft]

ah

[astral condor]

Yeah it's really to improve performance marginally

[main raft]

i dont have much trouble its just occasionally my entire pc just freezes mid sprint and idk what to do

otherwise its smooth as can be

[astral condor]

Turn on the "Turn on this if you stutter" addon, might help a bit

[main raft]

maybe

i turned everything to piss low and im stuttering

ill go take a look

[astral condor]

It's really sudden spikes of CPU usage, I think

Thanks in part due to A-Life

[main raft]

gotcha

[terse sun]

hmm latest patch installed, 330 active mods instead of 329, any ideas?

[shadow sapphire]

!stutter

[raw raft]

1. Update G.A.M.M.A. to the latest version (open the installer with admin rights, click on Update G.A.M.M.A. data and then Full G.A.M.M.A. installation)
2. Bring your modlist back to default (type !default in #🤖bot-commands)
3. Turn on the "Turn this on if you stutter" mod in your MO2 (you can found the mod under the G.A.M.M.A. Fixes separator)
4. If you have a NVIDIA GPU, you can enable Triple Buffering in NVIDIA control panel
5. Open Anomaly Launcher via MO2 and tick Prefetch sounds

Still a WIP because I need to add something else

[main raft]

appreciate it

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah that happened to someone else too. But I'm not sure what it was.... is duty expansion on by default?

[terse sun]

just btw, setting frame limiter (not vsync! turned that off) to 58fps completely removes stuttering for me, no idea why except for maybe the fact that my stuttering was mostly because of screen tearing though I would hardly describe hard stuttering as screen tearing

[terse sun]

I just checked before, no it's off

[main raft]

i will do all of those things

[shadow sapphire]

Is there one for ak74u?

[terse sun]

hmm typing this into search gives nothing

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly no idea and I'm not at pc.

[terse sun]

it's alright, I'm off to sleep for now anyways

will drop back tomorrow 🙂

hf guys!

[main raft]

im doing the full install again

here we go

[digital wind]

can I exchange nosorog monolith exoskeleton for a mercenary one?

[jagged belfry]

When you take a mission, and the mission giver then dies during an emission or whatever, you get mission failed but also lose faction reputation, is this normal?

[digital wind]

you loose rep because you couldn't complete the mission and come back to the guy that gave you the mission so yes

when you deliver packages the other guy gives u the money

[jagged belfry]

I don't think the player should get penalized because some mission giver ai acted stupidly

[digital wind]

it shouldn't be super bad though u loose very little rep depending on the mission

[jagged belfry]

Ibuprofen being the best post heal remedy to fix a broken leg isn't very logical. Splints would make more sense

[main raft]

its smooth now

thank god

[digital wind]

Nice

[digital wind]

@shadow sapphire the expert tools are found only in stashes and are very rare?

[fathom cape]

does anyone know where the documents are inside the monolith control center for the quest?

[shadow sapphire]

Yes and yes possibly in rf packages too maybe

[shadow sapphire]

Also only in rf and north

[keen tiger]

Hey just making sure, if i delete the gamma folder nothing bad will happen right?

[shadow sapphire]

To your pc or to your game?

[digital wind]

its

[shadow sapphire]

To your pc no. To your game, you won't be able to play gamma

[north turret]

can't ads all of a sudden just zooms in view?

[keen tiger]

Cool just making sure, thanks :)

[shadow sapphire]

Hit v

[digital wind]

take a right from there

and there should be the control room and the straicase on the right side has the document

[fathom cape]

found it, thank you

[gritty minnow]

Question for the Artifact "Volat Emerald", it has negative % stats, does it bring down your stats to that level or just decreases by that %?

For example it says 0% ballistic res, does it bring my ballistic res from 50% to 0%?

[digital wind]

yeah if it has negative stats

it brings down the resistance

it displays the stats most artifcats emit radiation and it shows a - on the side effects

so the same concept applies to ballistics resistance

[tribal plover]

Do duty expansion still brings changes towards dialogue menu or was it unified with current game style?

[gritty minnow]

Sorry another question but is the Full Empty/Empty artefact the same one as what those SIN faction wear? The one where you shoot em but some forcefield stops the bullet?

[brisk zinc]

In theory it's fixed now, update GAMMA if you didn't, still be careful

[brisk zinc]

No we don't have that kind of protection

Grok planned to add that force field stuff when you play as a Sin

[gritty minnow]

Ohhh thank you @brisk zinc !

[winged ether]

what’s this duty expansion stuff?

edit: if I update Gamma for the duty expansion fix from the Announcements post, will it work on a current duty save?

[gritty minnow]

Do people still run ACE armor with artefacts? Or do you go for exoskeletons now?

[brisk zinc]

I've used the ACE with artefacts for a while before getting my hands on a Nosorog
You could also run two separate things, the ACE for artefacts scavenging, the Nosorog for battles

[brisk zinc]

Right click on the mod in MO2, open on Moddb, read the description

I know it's okay with already started games but still be careful

[gritty minnow]

Any tips on getting an ACE? I'm currently playing as a merc a little late game

[digital wind]

does anyone know where the stash for the zombie village is

i looked on top and everywhere

i cant find it

number 11 but its in the middle of the house

of zaton

nm its prob a glitch i cant find it

[winged ether]

does the condition of major artifacts (the ones that give off radiation) degrade with use like the minor ones? And does condition affect stats?

[teal barn]

Anyone know how to get past the crash on starting a new game after equipment screen? Definitely had all mods

[severe shadow]

After the last update my guns are not showing the new cool animations anymore, I had them on shotgun and handgun. Is that intended or something has gone wrong during the install?

[echo elk]

And the anomaly is fresh?

[echo elk]

Might be this, dunno.

https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/commit/9436249751fe06fe09d18c9c4be5fd21cabf3a11

[echo elk]

Condition does affect stats (obviously) but don't know about the radiation amount, I think it stays the same.

[winged ether]

does the condition degrade with use?

I just reloaded a quicksave after disabling

YACS better campfire saves
the two mods for disabling !voice

and now three artifacts that were in LLMCs are at full condition after being at very low condition... is there any way to debug change their condition? feels kinda cheesy lol

edit: repeated quicksaving and quickloading is making their condition fluctuate

edit2: seemed like a one time thing actually. All I had done with them was take them into my inventory and put them in the LLMC, and then quicksaved/lodaded, and then they were full condition. I did a couple more quicksave/loads and they reset back to their original conition, and I havent been able to recreate it after trying to replicate by taking them in/out of the LLMC, in/out of my storage box, and quicksave/loading 🤷‍♂️ at least I dont have the 3 cheated full condition ones though lol

[teal barn]

Yeah 100% run it one to create the other files and stuff blah blah

[gleaming robin]

Is there a way to start the Toppers quest (kill top ten stalkers ) with the console, I can´t ask snitch about the quest

[crude oyster]

its in the rafters of the house attic

right next to the chimney, nestled between the frame

[echo elk]

I'm pretty sure the condition of artifacts is sorta finicky, because stalker anomaly tries to spawn them at 100% condition and then the mods try to modify the condition back to usual 5-20%, but sometimes the mods fail and you can get a free 100% condition artefact, don't think anyone found a reproducible way yet

[graceful iron]

a few people keep saying the artefacts dont work correctly or get their condition randomized when most dont encounter such an issue. grok fixed the resetting multiple times

radioactive artefacts dont degrade @winged ether

[median moat]

Quick query - How does one utilize the various magnification levels on a variable optic?

[graceful iron]

mouse scroll wheel

[median moat]

That doesn’t seem to do the trick for me with the “Specteror” scope D:

[graceful iron]

which gun is it on?

[median moat]

The UMP 45.

[crude oyster]

specterDR doesn't have a zoom function, only certain optics do like the march tactical

[graceful iron]

the UMP doesnt allow for variable zoom with the scopes

[graceful iron]

it does

[median moat]

Heck D: Alrighty. Thanks!

[crude oyster]

wait what? is that new for the ump custom?

[graceful iron]

the specterDR was changed to be a variable zoom scope recently but it still doesnt work on all weapons

[crude oyster]

ohhhh interesting, good to know myself.

im guessing some of the more recent updated/added weapons to the pack feature the zoom ability like the ump custom?

[gleaming robin]

Is there a way to start a quest by a console command ? @graceful iron

[graceful iron]

i literally just said, the UMP doesnt allow for the specterDR's variable zoom...

[graceful iron]

i have no idea

[gleaming robin]

All rights, will experiment a little. Thanks

[crude oyster]

im not saying the ump custom itself does it, obviously not, im saying the weapons that were changed recently like the ump custom to allow those scopes had those features added

[pure crescent]

so gamma isnt lauching it just stops and closes

[graceful iron]

post the log

its in anomaly/appdata/logs

[pure crescent]

nvm i fixed thanks

game is very dark on highest settings

[carmine wyvern]

Type
! blackscreen in #🤖bot-commands

[primal relic]

how do I boost the efficiency of unique artefacts like the heart of the oasis or volat emerald?

[graceful iron]

craft more of it

[primal relic]

oh i didn't know you could even craft those

[graceful iron]

you can fuse artefacts into higher tier ones

[primal relic]

ty

[fleet glacier]

question, im clear sky and have a medium military armo, went to cs trader to exchange that but didnt give me anything even tho i had both money and armor(trader didn't take any money or armor from my inv)

[graceful iron]

did the armor have its patch on? and which armor exactly is it?

[fleet glacier]

yes, it was a beril 5m

[graceful iron]

clear sky dont have access to a beril-5 variant

the beril-5 isnt included in any of the armor trades

[north turret]

not even the Bandit one?

[fleet glacier]

damn

[graceful iron]

nope

[digital wind]

thank you so much bro yeah i got the stash based on what u said

[crude oyster]

np i got stuck on that stash myself not too long ago

[drowsy bolt]

is upgrading binoculars viable now? I remember there was a game crash related to that

[versed tusk]

nope

still bugs and not worth

[drowsy bolt]

ok, thanks

[hoary cedar]

Does anyone know what reposition mod does gamma use?

[north turret]

hi, i just made a clean install and i have 330 mods. what gives?

[warm sand]

All night vision is useless and i have no idea why, tried every NVG and they are all the same tapping n just changes how much grain there is and how green the overlay is

Or blue

[versed tusk]

deleted shader cache already?

[midnight shard]

What this mod does?

[pulsar yoke]

I think it does what it says, sometimes monsters get stuck between trees. bushes etc. and I think this aims to reduce this? yesterday a pseudogiant got stuck in Prypjat between two bushes and I could kill him with ease. ( pls correct me if I'm wrong with this)

[warm sand]

No skom, do i gotta do some wierd crap or can I just click the box in the launcher

[versed tusk]

!shader

[raw raft]

To clean your "Shader 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.

[versed tusk]

weir crap just delete a folder and relaunch the game

not sure if it helps either, but a good start

[warm sand]

Nothing can be as simple as "click the button that says it will do thing" in this god for saken game

[versed tusk]

sounds like a you problem

[midnight shard]

I asked that cuz its turned off by default when u install GAMMA. So maybe its kinda optional mod or smth

But thanks

How to turn ON death in anomalies for NPCs(humans) ?

[grizzled raven]

id advise not to

[north turret]

there is a mod for that but you do not want that because GAMMA has Dynamic Anomalies
meaning Anomalies are in places that NPC pathfinding does not know to avoid, meaning they die like lemmings

[grizzled raven]

because xray does not like it

potential lagspikes and your companions die all the time

[midnight shard]

Oh, okay then

Thanks, boiz

[boreal jewel]

Who is it you give vodka to in exchange for shiny things? The technician in Rostok near 101 Rads is giving me the option, but I'm pretty sure it's not him I've seen mentioned before.

[versed tusk]

its in Yantar

Spirit is the name iirc

he sits outside the bunker

[hoary cedar]

Which mod makes opening the backpack or wearing armour instant?

[versed tusk]

don't enable any animations

it'll brick your game with Busy Hands

[graceful iron]

its not a mod, its the item animations option in the game settings

[versed tusk]

!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

[hoary cedar]

oh, thats good to know

thank you!

[raven sparrow]

After gatekeeper calls out on the radio that a wave of monoliths/zombies are coming, how long do I have to get there? I went there asap from rostok but no enemies are in sight.

[north turret]

I thought it was Lukash that gives the call
in his case I had to go talk to Lukash to get the attack started

maybe the same is true for Gatekeeper, try talking to him about that upcoming attack

[raven sparrow]

Oh yeah, it was Lukash

Talking to him started things off, thanks

wow, 3 legends and 2 masters, freedom is sending everything they've got with me 😄

[north turret]

last time I did it I don't think any freedomers died

but it doesn't hurt to be proactive with shooting zombies in your sightline, and trying to loot everything in the middle of a firefight is a bad idea

[raven sparrow]

I got plenty of loot, I only combat looted a few legends. They are always a priority.

[boreal jewel]

Why are all my red dots neon green? Is there a setting somewhere?

[simple lodge]

what's the worst that could happen if i try to play warfare?

its it ok just for lulz and some cheating, running around being a douche?

dont really mind if the save is fu**ed

[cursive parrot]

Does anyone know who to give the yantar psy documents to? It wont let me give them to sakarov or the merc trader

[sturdy stone]

Frustrating crashes, mostly. GAMMA just isn't optimized to run it so performance is pretty shite, understandably.

[sturdy stone]

A lot of the docs are for an Army questline iirc

[simple lodge]

well i dont think a beefy rig will affect the performance hm?

[sturdy stone]

No

[simple lodge]

ah im sure there are other modpacks that can cover that for me on a separate install

[sturdy stone]

Warfare runs pretty fine for a few days, but it just gets worse and worse as time goes on

[loud glacier]

there is any way to change this white toning on the ground?

[graceful iron]

#│🔧troubleshooting #│🔧troubleshooting message gloss factor

[past zodiac]

What does reputation do? Like brilliant vs awful whats the difference?

[past zodiac]

i had the same. press ` and type r2_gloss_factor 0.35

[south jungle]

I don't think so. But you can increase the amount of autosave "slots" in settings.

[graceful iron]

dont use multiple channels for the same question please

[south jungle]

it definitely didn't fit #old-bugs tho

[lavish patrol]

I've previously asked if updating G.A.M.M.A can break old save games and got it cleared that it doesn't, but with this huge new update going from Anomaly 1.5.1 to 1.5.2 is this still the case?
My saves are still based on an older G.A.M.M.A build from the middle of August.

[hearty goblet]

i have updated the game but still getting the same issue

ive also deleted all my mods and redownloaded them

[brisk zinc]

Playing with 1.5.2 right now and my save is old

I'm playing just fine

If you're "scared" of doing it, just backup the folder

But it won't break anything

The fix used by that dude (I've already forgot the name) literally doesn't touch in the slightest Anomaly or the Anomaly folder

(as in, it doesn't touch saves, because of course the fix goes inside Anomaly)

[lavish patrol]

In Falco we trust.

backup as in the entire root folder?

GAMMA RC3

[hearty goblet]

is this an issue?

[brisk zinc]

Anomaly-1.5.1\appdata\savedgames

Just this folder

This folder contains your save files

I just checked the fix the dude used, this folder isn't even touched

He fucked up something in the process, the fix doesn't touch save files

[lavish patrol]

oh I see, alright I'll get to it

[brisk zinc]

I'm not even the only one on 1.5.2

It just works™️

[sturdy stone]

far from it

[brisk zinc]

GAMMA is for 1.5.2, wdym

If you're on 1.5.1 and you didn't updated, it's a you thing

[sturdy stone]

You made it sound like it was rare to be on 1.5.2

[hearty goblet]

Question. Does having JSGME cause issues with the MO2 stuff?

[brisk zinc]

Quite the opposite

[sturdy stone]

I would hope most of us are at this point

[brisk zinc]

But then again my english isn't the best, so you're probably right

[brisk zinc]

It's obligatory

That's why I said "I'm not the only one", as in...

You know

It's safe

It doesn't break saves at all, I mean I've just updated and my save is fine

[south jungle]

Safety. don't forget it

[brisk zinc]

Yes goddamn it

Anomaly must be clean

It's written in #old-how-to

Learn how to read please

Sorry for my being rude but I seriously can't take it anymore

I mean it's not a suggestion if it says "Anomaly must be clean"

[sturdy stone]

Reading the Manual must be out of style

[brisk zinc]

That's another problem but you can learn how to play GAMMA even without the manual

As long as you know how to heal and repair, you don't need it, almost everything can be done without it (if you want to learn)

[south jungle]

but yeah backing up the saves just in case something fucked up during the update is kinda wise

also: are all "slots" for the ingame loading screen tips occupied?

Maybe we could write something more into there

[lavish patrol]

Damn says You need 1.5.2 if you update GAMMA from now on. It's cross compatible with existing 1.5.1 saves from Groks announcement

sorry Falco

[brisk zinc]

I would never tell a lie to Thomas Angelo

[thick python]

Any idea why my game keeps crashing in Limansk without any crashlog?

[high pelican]

To all those with radeon gpus who suffered from shader compilation crashes at random time intervals and then deleted your shader compilation only to be met with instantaneous crashes, you can try switching to DX8-AVX for a potential solution.

[raven sparrow]

Is there anything that can be done about base characters going missing? This is worse in Gamma than anything I

I've experienced in Anomaly

Mechanic in Yantar and guide in Outskirts are missing. They arn't too important but I'd rather it didn't happen to someone I use frequently

[heavy haven]

update your gamma versions

[north turret]

The same situation as Psoglav? Did they just vanish or somewhere they are dead?

[willow hawk]

Oh look, 330 addons and it’s not more stable than 0 addons

[raven sparrow]

🙂

[willow hawk]

NPCs can disappear for various reasons

You can spawn them back easily

[raven sparrow]

I understand that and its not critisism, I was indeed looking for the way to resawn them

[willow hawk]

There’s even a guide in #╭📖faq to do so

[raven sparrow]

neat, I'll take a look

[willow hawk]

For instance

!scar

[raw raft]

Scar disappeared and you can't complete your Clear Sky quest?

Spawn dragun_squad with the following method: <#╭📖faq message>. Save and reload, talk to him, a swarm of dogs will appear, kill them and then talk to Scar again. Spawning and talking to Scar immediately will fail the quest.

[thick pawn]

@graceful iron hey okay cat was just wondering if i could ask u something

im playing around with adding weapons to NPC loadouts atm because i want the useless AK varians back. so if i just underneath each rank that i want to have i just add the weapon name?

like this wpn_ak:0:0

[loud glacier]

i am playing as a ecologist and i doing the last dawn mission, if i kill the military at the machine yard, will military become my enemy?

[thick pawn]

and i copy and paste it like 3 or 4 times depending on the way another type of ak has already been done

but some have a 0:03 and some have 0:0r

which i just dont get, am i missing anything or what should i be aware of?

if i just add it will it add it fine?

im about to test in debug mode by spawning bandits and killing them

to see if the new gun i added will drop

ive added it to bandit novice just to test, ill let u know how it goes

[graceful iron]

put the weapon's name under the npc rank and save. i still have no idea what the numbers exactly mean but they are not important for the drop itself

[thick pawn]

what about r?

and what about the amount of copy and pastes?

some have the same waepon pasted multiple times

YES IT WORKED

[graceful iron]

i didnt make the addon, i literally have no idea. i just know that adding one weapon by putting its name there works

[thick pawn]

its as easy as that

hooray

[graceful iron]

no, but the military in the machine yard and the rest of their squads will shoot you

[thick pawn]

that makes me happy

it worked

[graceful iron]

no need to ask your question twice

[willow hawk]

That squad yes, but not the entire faction no, unless you have bad goodwill with militaries

[willow hawk]

Npc loadouts are very specific and you can attribute the kind of attachments and ammo through the numbers between :

[vestal echo]

Is there a way to check how many hours i’m playing this masterpice game?

[willow hawk]

There’s an addon for his iirc

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/total-playtime

@vestal echo enjoy

[vestal echo]

Thx

[velvet pier]

Can someone explain why some locations have this weird dot effect?

[graceful iron]

radiation

[velvet pier]

In a camp?

[minor star]

Yes

[graceful iron]

radiation spots are everywhere

they only dont spawn inside of the main faction bases

[velvet pier]

kek

[thick pawn]

@graceful iron so im going through the loadouts and seeing what weapons do and dont spawn and adding them as im a gun hobo that loves variety... but.

@graceful iron is there a genuine good reason the FAMAS doesnt spawn?

its really fun finding and using all these different guns in stalker, i and many others enjoy the immersive variety

theres really no reason to cull entirely different guns that work even if stats are similar its really not a good enough excuse, especially if they arent causing bloat, bugs or issues. its nice to have them anyway.

as far as i can tell the famas works fine

[astral condor]

They do cause bloat, iirc. And some have been culled due to the low quality of animations, and some can even cause busy hands in some cases, so yeah it's really better to keep the weapon selection to a minimum of great weapons

[thick pawn]

nah, they dont cause bloat. its another gun that adds variety.

[astral condor]

Lol in my case, even with all the guns culled, I'm having inventory performance issues

[thick pawn]

genuine bugs and crashes? sure i can understand.

then dont store it

grab another stash

or whatever lol

[astral condor]

Yeah no dude, all items are loaded in at once per map

[thick pawn]

wide variety doesnt hurt

thats my opinion

at least i can add them back

[astral condor]

ye lol just discussing your opinion with you

[thick pawn]

i find it fun finding all these different guns in stalker anomaly

i see no genuine reason to cull them

unless crashes and game breaking bugs

[astral condor]

Gamma is more on the quality > quantity side

[thick pawn]

just "bloat" is a very blunt and open to interpretation

its just guns, if they work and sound fine no reason to cull them. once again , its variety.

[astral condor]

MagsRedux can cause busy hands with some of those weapons, and some jam anims as well which is a vanilla feature iirc

[thick pawn]

i dont use magsredux so i guess ill go ahead and re enable them

if i run innto issues ill get rid of it

[astral condor]

Ye just be careful of inconsistencies tho

some traders might buy the weapons which is against default gamma

and some lootpools might be off

[thick pawn]

meh i just wont that. i dont sell my guns anyway

[astral condor]

gl either way ig

[thick pawn]

nah so far its been working fine

adding them bakc

back*

[astral condor]

aight

[thick pawn]

i get quality over quantity

but with something as small as variety with guns especially in anomaly. i love that alot.

[astral condor]

efp doesn't cull guns

well some troublesome ones

but yeah over there there's a lot of weapons

and they just keep adding onto those

Knock yourself out really

[thick pawn]

troublesome ones can definitely understand, but im finding so many guns that have no reason to be culled. they are good and add genuine variety.

type 63 even if it is shit is fun

added it back to the bandits

havent played EFP

what are ur thoughts on it

[astral condor]

I honestly prefer gamma but efp's nice too

it's just trying to overhaul the game into something else entirely

Think of it like a gourmet burger pumped with ketchup

it's not supposed to be eaten that way but some like it

[north turret]

What faction quests am I able to do as ecologist?

[astral condor]

any faction that is neutral to your own, you can do their quest

As long as you have the ability to talk to them, you can initiate the questline

even with enemy factions IF you have a disguise

[north turret]

Okay, I see the military sends me into the labs, same as the first ecologist one, do I have to choose between them to deliver docs to?

[velvet pier]

After further investigation with the dosimeter it turns out they don't have any radiation at all tho :v

[graceful iron]

the geiger counter doesnt spot all the radiation spots. you can take off all your gear (helmet and suit) to see if you will take rads

[north turret]

is there a way to remove the sleepiness requirement for sleeping?

[graceful iron]

!sleep

[raw raft]

DON'T TOUCH Sleep deprivation IN SETTINGS. Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[north turret]

thanks

[raven sparrow]

Anyone know if I upgrade a gun for better reliability and give it to a companion does it retain its buffs? Hips is wearing down my guns with her endless spraying

[thick pawn]

so why was the M16 and all variants culled from spawning?

[main raft]

can you become neutral with all factions?

[thick pawn]

and what about the LR300?

why are u culling soo many normal weapons that work fine @willow hawk ?

[sturdy stone]

Yes, they are affected by weapon condition and attachments

[raven sparrow]

Good to know

[frank geode]

I just got a message from my pda. Is says: "the sooner you get an rf receiver, the sooner we'll help you... if we can". Anyone got idea what this is?

[sturdy stone]

Get an RF receiver and find out

[raven sparrow]

Free loot

[frank geode]

is the frequency randomised?

[sturdy stone]

Yes

[frank geode]

thanks

[sturdy stone]

yw

[sturdy stone]

Personal suggestion--avoid locations in Darkscape and Truck Cemetery

[graceful iron]

could you please not ping grok for unimportant questions you already know the answer for? and for feedback use the correct channel #old-feedback-suggestions

you can easily add the weapons back to your own game, the community and grok decided what to remove and what to keep, it wasnt a one person's decision

[thick pawn]

yeah thats fine. but i cant understand and dont see a single good reason to even remove good weapons that work fine

why go out of ur way to destroy variety

[astral condor]

This again lol

[thick pawn]

cause now i gotta go re add them all

[sturdy stone]

Still the wrong channel

[graceful iron]

why are you putting this here?

[solar beacon]

Oh, sorry, ill take my comment and leave. lol

[astral condor]

1. It was not to destroy "variety", it's to make the game more consistent, thematically, functionally, keeping it bug free, and to get rid of horrendous animations that plagued some weapons.
2. Take this to #old-feedback-suggestions and I believe this has been discussed with you and I before so no real need to ping either mods or Grok

[sturdy stone]

Nah don't leave, just put it in general 🙂

[main raft]

how much reputation do you need to become like, allies with a faction in anomaly?

[sturdy stone]

"Allies" in what way?

[frank geode]

Thanks for the heads up. I just started my merc playthrough and this is my first time playing gamma. So i had no idea about rf receivers

[sturdy stone]

The thresholds are 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 goodwill iirc

[main raft]

gotcha

[astral condor]

Maximal is around 2000 reputation I believe? Really anything above zero is good

[sturdy stone]

NP at all, enjoy! Ask away

[astral condor]

If you're enemies with a certain faction, you gotta put on a disguise and reach your rep around 1000 with them so they can stop capping your butt lol

[main raft]

another question, who sells part fixing kits, for parts in a gun? Do i first need to get a trader tools then he will accept me as his son and offer me help

[fallen galleon]

When you buy info on stashes for 6500 you get coordinates to one or several?

[astral condor]

Technicians do, traders don't I think?

[main raft]

*technicians yeah

Alright time to go find some tools i guess

[sturdy stone]

Techs sell various parts, and they sell the appropriate "kits" once they've been given a toolkit for that level, if that makes sense

[sturdy stone]

One

[main raft]

one stash for 6500. thats a ripoff sidorovich!

good ol sidorovich

[sturdy stone]

[fallen galleon]

Thank you

[main raft]

i need the icon lmao

[main raft]

yoooo

how do we check our stats?

[astral condor]

K by default

[main raft]

should i eat the zone produced food i cook? or just buy clean stuff. Idk if i wanna die of dysentery

[native cliff]

Where exactly are the taskIDs found in the base Anomaly folder? The guide in #╭📖faq says to extract the scripts.db0, but there's like 60+ files in here.

[dense cargo]

eat the mutants, minimal radiation

even the snork hand, its tough but tastes like chimken

[mortal mist]

Whats the new storylines

And where to what faction

[thick pawn]

is the unique VSS "Tide" the nimble VSS also disabled? i dont see it in any of the lists for NPC loadouts, or is it a unique player only gun?

[digital wind]

where is the unisg base?

[main raft]

can you change out the pieces of textile in armor? and if so how do you do it?

[north turret]

I can respect wanting to have fancy tasty food, but cooking mutant meat is much more efficient for calories per rouble
even if you are buying your cooking kit
purified food has good long-lasting buffs too!

also the description of cooked dog sounds delicious; grilled meat with veggies and garlic? hell yeah

[main raft]

it do sound good, i just was worried my character was gonna become a mutant food snob, or die of dysntery

[north turret]

you're more likely to die from drinking strong alcohol while using heavy painkillers, or from the cocaine habit some pick up
or you'll possibly develop scurvy

[west horizon]

Hello, I have a problem when I click "start game" the game stays on the loading screen for a moment and then crashes, I've already tried reinstalling it but it doesn't work. Help pls

[north turret]

post your log
ANOMALY\appdata\logs
xray_username.log

[valid axle]

Im loading my last save and my life appears at 0 all limbs also in 0 health with full "heal" (yellow color) aaaand it crashes when I try to save

[north turret]

cycle your health HUD by pressing H
and the rest of your HUD by pressing numpad enter
that should fix your health info
don't know what is causing the crash

[north turret]

bruh12 is a great username
! [SCRIPT ERROR]: ...-1.5.1.2\gamedata\scripts\aol_mp412_monkeypatches.script:98: attempt to call field 'callback_add' (a nil value)
sorry, I do not know what causes problems there
have you changed your mod selection from the vanilla default?

[shadow sapphire]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly version 1.5.1

!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]

I keep forgetting to check for that despite it being one of the first lines

[shadow sapphire]

Thats the engine call at the top, that one is about halfway down, after all textures have loaded, and its actually initalizing the game. But that monkey patch error basically means thats the issue.

[keen stratus]

i cant find the anomalous detector for the spore special mission and theres no map marker

[shadow sapphire]

!scanner

[raw raft]

Can't find the scanner for the Last Dawn quest?: #╭📖faq message

[keen stratus]

OMFG THANK YOU LMAOOO

[valid axle]

Seems it was the save, loaded an older one and it had no problem

[winged ether]

does updating reset your controls/game setting preferences? Or does reinstalling? I just reinstalled and those were reset

[compact coral]

silly question, anybody knows the rules of blackjack?

i want to scam the fat fuck of sidorovich but im confused

[compact coral]

reinstalling

[shadow sapphire]

Yes both do

!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

[shadow sapphire]

!version

[raw raft]

Go to your \GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer Folder and open version.txt

[thick warren]

614

[shadow sapphire]

How did you update to 614. And how long ago before that did you last update?

[thick warren]

After first error (that posted above), updated via installer. Like 10 mins ago

[main raft]

wait, is there another update out?

[shadow sapphire]

What version were you on before?

[shadow sapphire]

614

[thick warren]

Idk, i tried clicking "Update gamma data" and it started downloading

[shadow sapphire]

How long since you last used the gamma installer? a couple days? weeks? Months?

[thick warren]

Few days I guess

[shadow sapphire]

What version is your installer, on the left side next to the orange text

When was the last time you clicked full gamma install

[thick warren]

3.7
Full install like circa 2 weeks ago

[shadow sapphire]

Thats the issue

You missed multiple times when you had to use full install

[thick warren]

So should I run full install again?

[shadow sapphire]

On the updates youll see grok will say full install on some

depends, what anomaly version are you on?

[thick warren]

the latest, I guess? 1.5.1.2 or something

[shadow sapphire]

ooof

nope

ok follow this

[shadow sapphire]

Just dont bring over your user.ltx or mcm settings,

[thick warren]

ok

[shadow sapphire]

Anytime! Let me know if it doesnt work, and we will get you sorted!

[lime ibex]

Yo i literally just wanted to ask this

What a coincidence

But i also have another question - does murky spirit only mean that ironman mode has to be active?

So you can basically enable godmode all the way and still get it?

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly I dont know hat you mean off the top of my head lol

[lime ibex]

Well the murky spirit achievement says that you have to finish the MQ with the ironman mode enabled

Does that mean you can do it with the filthiest cheats possible?

Technically speaking

[shadow sapphire]

Honestly, I am not sure, you might be able to might not.

[mighty igloo]

noob question: what's the hotkey for the laser?

[shadow sapphire]

Long press L

[mighty igloo]

very cool thanks

[lime ibex]

Oh and uhhh, how do you kick mutants if you have the ball equipped?

[shadow sapphire]

F

[mighty igloo]

sorry and is steel wool only found at traders or can I craft it?

[versed tusk]

also on dead NPCs

[shadow sapphire]

Cant craft it, buy from traders, can also be found as loot in stashes, on dead stalkers

[mighty igloo]

oh ok. I just wanted to make sure I wasnt missing something. My thanks!

[finite sail]
