random item spawn
don't know if Grok wants more item spots right now

Oh ok. I have found a sutable place for a stash location that's why i ask.

Also can item spawns be fixed? I have noticed that one item keep spawning on the roof of the School in Outskirts.

[brazen canyon]

Can you change the player voice from english to russian as a merc?

[opal cove]

I don't have Anomaly Magazines is this normal ?

[versed tusk]

it's an optional mod

!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 (yes it's a mod, no it isn't a keybind)
3. Enable Ammo Check (this is a mod as well)
4. While in game, check your keybinds for reload and unjam
   Bonus) You can also enable Mags Buyable at Traders if you want, it's a mod already inside your mod list

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.

[last bear]

On that note, are there a list of optional mods? Or how I can see them/enable them?

Would really appreciate if someone had like a most-have optional mods xD

[versed tusk]

you have an optional separator in MO2
For each mod I would always advise to ASK how it works, what issues there are etc.
Dont touch anything underneath the Disabled separator

also 300+ mods are enough, especially when you havent even played the pack why put even more in, experience the pack as is and come back later when you know what you like/dislike

[willow hawk]

Yes I will add many more but don't have time currently to do so

[last bear]

Yeah I played 20 hours when I installed gamma, I followed the tutorial on how to installed and just pressed play. Played for 20 hours and I had to start watching videos of how to properly repair stuff and I saw I was missing for example a must have for me the magazines mod

I had no idea it was a mod and I was like damn I wish this had a tarkov like magazine system, turns out there is. Now I’m wondering what else I’m missing

[versed tusk]

not much imho - i personally dont use the minimap but instead the compass, mags is there as an optional. Companion teleport if you play with em is useful i guess. the "stutter" addon for performance but otherwise the pack is very stable and and brings everything I'd want to the table out of the box

[vapid talon]

Hey ! Many time mutant get stuck litteraly one nothing 😅 So i have looked in the mod list and found Monsters Unstucker Not activated. And when i have looked inside mod files monster_unstuck.script, i found nothing inside... Totally empty. It's normal ?

(Sorry my english is not perfect :P)

[graceful iron]

its disabled because it causes issues, its under the disabled separator so dont enable it

you can try downloading and installing the addon yourself but please only use the #🔨modded-gamma-support for help

[willow hawk]

vanilla issue + there's no current fix + I made that script empty as a bait so people don't install this faulty addon that is anyway archived and causes crashes

[raven sparrow]

Is this purple+green cammo zombie only or something I can get myself? It looks pretty neat.

[jagged belfry]

I tried with vanilla profile so asking here. In inventory, when I press ctrl, I can see the original/optimal infos of equipped armor. But not seeing it for weapons or other items?

[vapid talon]

Sure... but it's in vanilla mod pack, so i have asked here.

[willow hawk]

(yes I'm going that deep to prevent people creating bugs and issues on their own...)

[last bear]

Stupid question, I enabled/disabled some mods on the mo2, is there like a save settings tick or once I enabled I can just click on run? Sorry xD

[graceful iron]

weapons dont have any changing stats, and the damage/ap are displayed next to the barrel's condition

[graceful iron]

please read what i said and what grok said and then go from there

[graceful iron]

nothing else, you just run the game

[last bear]

Thank you for the patience. Will start a whole new gameplay now. My first 20 hours were just for learning lmao

[graceful iron]

just keep in mind that adding or removing addons from the modlist or disabling core addons means its no longer vanilla gamma and if you need any help use the #🔨modded-gamma-support

you can ask about each addon included in the vanilla modlist if you need to know what it exactly does, just know that any addons under the disabled separator should not be enabled

!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.

[last bear]

Understood, I just enabled the magazines with the bot instructions, nothing else since I agree the original one has everything needed

[jagged belfry]

Ah I assumed lesser condition impacted their stats. What does lesser condition do besides increase jamming?

[graceful iron]

the overall condition of the gun only increases how fast parts condition decreases as it goes down, while each part's condition increases jamming chance (except the barrel that controls the damage and AP power of the ammo shot from the weapon)

lower overall condition = faster part degradation (in-case my first explanation was too confusing)

lower part condition = higher chance for jams

[north turret]

Why those letters show there?

[willow hawk]

the dot can be bugged, not sure why

[tidal raft]

Might be some strange ANSI > Unicode interpretation error.

[grizzled hornet]

what's the name of the mod that prevents me from sleeping in the mcm?

[graceful iron]

!sleep

[raw raft]

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

[grizzled hornet]

oh

[heavy haven]

save use the console to spawn all of the variants of sunrise might be 1 of them i am not 100% sure

[raven sparrow]

cool, thanks

[heavy haven]

then you will know what to look for 😛

At least it looks like sunrise in general it should be a medium armor

[warm sand]

Anyway to save PDA quests without carrying them in your inventory?

[gritty minnow]

Is the best nosorog still merc? Or is it Duty?

[heavy haven]

merc/ mono

someone said mono has 4 slots for arti

[graceful iron]

merc/duty/mono

[heavy haven]

but you get extra style and swamp man points for wearing the clear sky one

[graceful iron]

they dont have a noso

[azure valve]

is it possible to change how much kg a stash can hold?

[brisk zinc]

!weight

[raw raft]

Stashes now have limited carry weight. To store many items, you need to craft boxes where you'll have more space to store your loot. This change was made so that base building mechanics has an in-game purpose.
It forces the player to think about what he/she chooses instead of piling up tons of useless weapons that worsen loading times, inventory opening times, it also makes the game "lighter," all stuff related to make the game more "quicker".
If you don't like this change or maybe you're in the middle of a run and can't afford/don't want to use straight away the hideout feature, you can enable this mod under G.A.M.M.A. Fixes called "Unlimited Stashes Weight".

[azure valve]

thanks

[dense ridge]

I just updated after a long period of time. Saved my key binds etc. Does "Update GAMMA data" followed by "Only install GAMMA add-ons" wipe out keybinds or only full installs?

[brisk zinc]

Both

Or better yet

[dense ridge]

Copy so I gotta back up each time just to confirm

[brisk zinc]

Update GAMMA data doesn't change anything

Only install and Full install change stuff

[brisk zinc]

!backup

[raw raft]

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

[brisk zinc]

But yes

Mods are a one time thing

User.ltx no, or better yet, you just need to backup the file and move it again after you update

[dense ridge]

thanks; familiar with this I just wasn't exactly sure if this only applied to full installs

is there any truth with newer saves performing better? I just noticed (and this could be placebo) that the game seems to run better on my new save I started yesterday vs my save I started like 3 months ago

[brisk zinc]

Yes, it's true

[jagged oracle]

Guys, where can I find this stash in meadow? The description just says stash 😄

been looking for it for half an hour now and it got dark

its in the apartment near the large warehouse area

never mind found it finally

after half an hour of going up and down the apartment

its funny how I found it exactly after asking the question

[dense ridge]

can you change freelook sensitivity? Would like it fast like Tarkov if possible

[lone field]

Ayo fellas! This is a rather chill question but, i saw a video where there's this guy who is smoking a cigarette for a long time while, in-game for me at least it seems to just smoke it very quickly and throw it away. Yes, it's stoopid, but i like bein aesthetic and roleplayin from time to time around a fire too 😁

well yea the question is just, it's just it is what it is or is it just another mod that makes the animation so long?

[astral condor]

It's I think an add-on called Asnen's and Grok's cigarette animations that makes it shorter, disable that and you're golden

[lone field]

Sounds perfect! I'll check it out and disable it, thanks a lot fella!

[astral condor]

Anytime! Enjoy <3

[last bear]

Is there a way to hide only some stuff from the hud? Like only to keep the ammo count and hunger/thirst and remove everything else?

[pure matrix]

is it possible to resurrect NPCs? i got Hip as a companion and i want to keep her alive

[terse hawk]

i believe there's autohide stamina bar but thats about it, you can try to mess with the body health system in the mcm menu for the healthbar

[terse hawk]

is she dead? companions gain quite a buff so you dont have to worry about them dying much

[pure matrix]

no not currently

[terse hawk]

if shes dead you can spawn her using the debugger, spawn her squad

[pure matrix]

just thinking ahead since she got down to half off some silly dogs

[terse hawk]

for general tips i usually turn off combat if i want her to just run away

and you can use move to point/stay if you want her to stay back somewhere

also give her some good guns since she only has like a pistol iirc, most of the time my companions just smack the shit out of mutants

theres also this addon if you want her to be straight up immortal https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/immortal-important-npcs-151

[winter raptor]

is refitted pbf gas mask good for disguise?

[viral stone]

is there a way to prioritize "lesser" dissasembling tools (grooming kit/swiss knife) when ripping apart 20 playboys and not use your multitool?

[heavy haven]

there was a mod somewhere that made companions pretty much immortal they would fall down and be downed for a time you could heal them and stuff but no perma deaths

[shadow sapphire]

It's already in.

[mental dirge]

THAP rework update almost 2 hours now at it,, wtf? so i read the potato situation is going to be better, thas great. yet i wonder whether north of RF is still going to be a mess.

[viral stone]

multitool 36%, grooming 37%, swiss 68%, all in inventory
Disassembling metal shovel (right-click)
Multitool was used(now 33%)

[shadow sapphire]

I don't think you can disassemble shovels with Swiss or grooming I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure you can only do clothes with grooming and Swiss adds some stuff to that, but I don't believe it's does shovels, guns, llmcs, or anything that is "constructed" if that makes sese

[viral stone]

i totally can, once i dropped the multitool the grooming kit was used for the next metal shovel

it strikes me as odd, thats all

[shadow sapphire]

Huh. Interesting. Yeah I'll take a look when I make it out of my bed in a few.

[viral stone]

the "priority" of a given tool could be messed up

[shadow sapphire]

Indeed. I'll take a look at it. I gotta get some playtime in anyway to actually test some stuff today anyway, so I'll put it on the list

[fickle briar]

is there a mod to remove all bushes ? (not ground grass)

[viral stone]

thank you :3

[shadow sapphire]

Included in gamma. No

[thin rock]

hi all. I play with the magazines redux addon, but all magazines of the enemies are empty. what could be the problem?

[graceful iron]

its intended

[raven sparrow]

Did the rewards for Noahs missions change? I did both the snork hunting missions and the mission to get him a new armsel protecta and both times I got nothing for a reward.

[naive meteor]

I recently noticed that a couple of the main Vendors I use had expanded with new items for sale.
I looked around and I can see that they have a displayed supply level of 2 instead of 1. (or something similar if I'm miss-remembering the exact name)

How/why did this upgrade? How can I work towards upgrading it further, or upgrading other vendors while playing?

[raven sparrow]

Supply level depends on your reputation with a faction, it increases in increments of 500

So supply level 1 at start, level 2 at 500 all the way to level 5 at 2000 reputation

[naive meteor]

Thank you very much, that makes perfect sense!

[raven sparrow]

I think it also disables the Anomaly achievement "heavy pockets" that unlock all traders inventories.

[winter raptor]

are gas masks good for disguise points?

[willow hawk]

I don’t think they matter much

[desert slate]

Could I ask somone about a spoiler-ish story element of the game? Just a quick question :)

[north turret]

sure, you can even spoiler your question if you think people don't want to see it

[warm remnant]

So for some reason after updating, my companions can only carry 30kg each now, and it doesn't even change when i give them backpacks. One of them is wearing exo-suit so he should be able to carry a lot more

[lone field]

Question question! How do you pick up a metal box that you placed down?

[desert slate]

||Is the crash when picking the first option of the wish granter intended?||

[leaden rampart]

works the same way as a stash. when it's empty, press the "Take all" button to pick it up

[lone field]

Oh dam i thought there was another way to pick it up. Thank you a lot fella, you saved my displaced metal box 👍

[north turret]

I've read that it literally makes the Zone disappear. Meaning yeah.

[desert slate]

I love it!

[shadow sapphire]

Who still has a question needing answered?

[harsh marten]

What does Reputation do, Bad or brillant?

[neon summit]

hello, i cant use the xenotech vice table even after i pay him 1k, whats up with that :D?

[shadow sapphire]

The better your reputation the more likely stalkers are to trust you, and to do things like surrender. The worse your reputation, the more likely stalkers are to fake surrender, and not trust your character.

!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]

And why are you paying for a vice?

[winged ether]

are you unable to open it? or unable to craft? AFAIK you will have to either give him toolkits or have those in your inventory yourself

in which case you wouldnt need to use the vice, unless he has more toolkits than you do

[neon summit]

unable to even open it

cause i wanted to use the technicians table to fix up my clothes

[harsh marten]

Thanks!

[shadow sapphire]

You would still need the tools, and you can just open a workbench straight from your inventory with the tools...

[harsh marten]

Is there a Hockey for disassemble?

[shadow sapphire]

Nope

[harsh marten]

Oof

Thanks again

[neon summit]

okay, thanks a bunch!

the fixing system still confuses me a bit

:D

[winged ether]

have you tried any other vices?

using them is suboptimal but you should still be able to open them so I wonder what the issue is there

[wind hazel]

hey guys for some reason companions stopped showing in my hud?

[winged ether]

try pressing numpad enter

[shadow sapphire]

Have you read the guides?

[wind hazel]

i have tkl keyboard lmao can i change the keybind¿?

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah go to mcm settings I believe

[winged ether]

hm not sure, maybe try whatever enter key you have?

[wind hazel]

yea it was supr lol thank you guys

[neon summit]

yes thank you, i've been re-reading every time i boot up the game

:D

[harsh marten]

Should I even consider giving my only advanced Tools? What happends if I finish all his deliviery quest like basic, advanced, expert tools?

[neon summit]

i have a general idea of what to do

[winged ether]

I forget where but there is a graphic somewhere, I think in manual chat, that is very helpful. I'm used to Anomaly crafting but GAMMA is definitely more complicated so I def had a lot of questions even after reading

[brisk zinc]

Give tools only when you have one for yourself

Giving tools to technicians "upgrade" their shop, they'll have more stuff for you to buy

[harsh marten]

ooh alr thanks

[warm remnant]

What gun should i switch to? Running low on Ash ammo, and it expensive

(Yes i have a personal armory, i enjoy repairing cool looking guns)

[winged ether]

it comes down to personal preference. I tend to always use AK models for my assault rifles so im not too familiar with the others

[shadow sapphire]

Did anyone start a new game in cordon since last patch?

[warm remnant]

Ye, but i have so many options, which is both great and annoying :)

[versed tusk]

I can do one, anything to check for?
Just did a fresh install

[shadow sapphire]

I was doing Fanatcis questline, and the jellyfish spawned but isnt there, literally no detector beeps no item. My honest suspicion is either that an AI nabbed it and ran off, or I got xrayed. Just wanted to make sure its just me lol.

[versed tusk]

aight, gimme a minute

[north turret]

Can you check if it's in the air? From time to time they are in the air and makes it hard to take.

Once the anomaly triggers it will fly across the map.

[shadow sapphire]

Oh trust me. Its not there lol.

Its most likely me being xrayed

[hollow moon]

Has anyone played radio phobia?

The newer one

I just wanted too know if it’s possible to add the quest from it to gamma

[winged ether]

by that do you just mean Xray engine being janky?

[shadow sapphire]

110%

[severe shadow]

Is Limansk considered "North"? Can you find Expert Toolkit in there? 🤔

[brisk zinc]

Different engines, so no

[brisk zinc]

3? Yes, a bit

[hollow moon]

Damn

Is it worth it for the quest alone?

I mean I’m stuck on gamma like legit I’ve been having a ball

So I don’t wanna stop to play radio and it’s trash

[brisk zinc]

To me it looks like SHOC but on steroids and clearly not entirely vanilla, it looks good and plays okay for what I've done

[hollow moon]

Oh so it’s not like anomaly?

[brisk zinc]

It's literally Shadow of Chernobyl

[hollow moon]

Like a big open map, dynamic systems etc

I didn’t play the trilogy

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah. So looking at my logs, it spawned as it should, and I could track it, then all the sudden its gone. I am seriously convinced an NPC stole it and traveled to a different map XD. Thanks for checking just wanted to make sure it was a me issue.

[hollow moon]

I’ve been heckled about that a lot before n other chats I know I knooowwww

[brisk zinc]

You should ask in their Discord btw, not here

[hollow moon]

Sir yes sir

[brisk zinc]

I've answered because I'm kind but... heh

[hollow moon]

Your all out of kindness for the day?

[brisk zinc]

It's a good way to play SHOC btw

Again, for what I've played

[harsh marten]

My disappointment Is immeasurable and my day Is ruined

[hollow moon]

MMMMM! we’ll see when ya put it like that bub

[brisk zinc]

It's not the vanilla experience but it's good

[harsh marten]

Why

[brisk zinc]

Or at least it seems okay

[brisk zinc]

!screen

[raw raft]

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

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

[hollow moon]

[frail coral]

is there a way to remove placed stashes specifically the buildable ones such as metal box i know you can move the workbench

[shadow sapphire]

Hi! Havent seen you in a few day. Run going good?

[shadow sapphire]

Empty it, and then hit take all

[buoyant stump]

hello , it was going alright but I actually bugged my find strelok questline so I'm starting a new merc run today haha

how are you doing?

[shadow sapphire]

Good, doing some actual gameplay today for testing some stuff, but I keep getting distracted by weird nitpick items lol.

[buoyant stump]

i see i see, sounds good

[shy temple]

Where's the stashes that the Tourist achievement unlocks, anyway? Kinda hard to tell since I already have a million stashes marked on my map.

Are they even worth going for at all?

[shadow sapphire]

No idea, theoretically they should be under standard gamma stash rules, so it shouldnt be better or worse. But I could also be wrong.

[vagrant nova]

Which anomaly is Archianomaly? Is it the vortex type one NW of the CS base?

[shadow sapphire]

Yes, just north of bog pounder

[compact coral]

what button am i supposed to long press for the nvg to turn on?

[versed tusk]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

N

[compact coral]

it doesnt do anything

nvm i have autism

is it supposed to look like this?

[buoyant stump]

yes, you can adjust the brightness gain

those are also tier 1, bad NVGs

it gets better

[compact coral]

i mean the circle around and not the whole view

[buoyant stump]

oh yeah it's like that 100%

[versed tusk]

its a literal mono goggle

tier 2 has 2

and tier 3 is a quad

[buoyant stump]

tier 3 is panoramic view nods pretty cool

[shadow sapphire]

Dont use multiple channels for the same thing man.

[keen ridge]

ok

[shadow sapphire]

Send your mod list in here or #old-bugs and I will help you

[shadow sapphire]

Your issue is the translation mod you added. It breaks the sleep script. If you disable that you will be able to sleep.

[keen ridge]

aww ok thanks

[versed tusk]

the translations are bad anyway like items not translated correctly, descriptions being cut off the window etc

[jagged kettle]

I cant find the key to swap sights on a gun

[shadow sapphire]

Yes

[jagged kettle]

thank you!

[viscid zephyr]

Thank you for the quick answer!

[winged ether]

the mods here are amazing for answering questions, honestly the best modding support ive ever experienced

[viscid zephyr]

Yeah, it's really nice

Mods are doing an amazing job

[clever flame]

So I’ve gotta ask
How do I get the game to look good like it does in the videos?

Because what I have right now just looks like vanilla Anomaly

[warped ginkgo]

what videos

[clever flame]

https://youtu.be/vCHhYtk17wE this one, to start

My shit just looks dull and gray, and the shadows are… well, not great

[versed tusk]

looks like pretty standard vanilla Gamma shaders to me

changes I do see, is the zone is green

[clever flame]

Let me get a screenshot and I’ll show you what I mean

My shadows are not good

[shadow sapphire]

Definitely vanilla imo excluding no dead zone

[clever flame]

Maybe that’s just what it is

I’m just not a fan of all the gray and dead, but I swear the shadows on that vid look better than what I have
Maybe it’s the renderer I’m using?

[versed tusk]

i still have no idea what your game looks like, what settings you use etc

[clever flame]

I’m about to get the picture, had to update the game

Well I feel like an idiot
For some reason it was running on the lowest settings possible by default

Looks good now

[shadow sapphire]

One day I'll stop being lazy and split out a Dev gamma and then a fun one that I'll mess with shaders and add some things to it.

[hollow phoenix]

is there a way to shorten the time on non campfire quicksaves?

[versed tusk]

mcm > YACS if i remember that right

[hollow phoenix]

unfortunately no option for changing the time

[versed tusk]

hmm i must've misremembered then

[shadow sapphire]

I'm 85% that it's hard coded in the ish_campfire script

[winged ether]

I see in the updating guide there ways to keep your preferences for
-in game settings
-MCM settings

Is there anyway to carry over your Anomaly Mod Organizer settings so you dont have to renable/disable mods after updates?

[hollow phoenix]

so is my only option to turn it off all together?

i assume its the local token_downtime line is the one but idek what to change after that

[harsh marten]

Does the game break if i save from the menu? I mean without a campfire and no daddy tokens just overwrite an old Save.

[winged ether]

if you have campfire mode on I dont think it will let you save from menu

[shadow sapphire]

!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

[harsh marten]

But I can... and I didnt change anything

[winged ether]

cool so answer is no so that new updates have a functional baseline, thanks

[shadow sapphire]

Send me a screenshot of the line I'm not at my pc right now, or send the file and I can tell you

[harsh marten]

Its vannila no extra mods nothing

[shadow sapphire]

Huh. Interesting. I know there is an emergency save feature no idea how it works

[harsh marten]

I mean I couldnt before the Update if I think about it

[shadow sapphire]

If you click the link. The answer is yes and it tells you how...

[harsh marten]

You mean the Shift+F5 daddy save?

[shadow sapphire]

Any red x in mo2?

[shadow sapphire]

Nah that one I know

[harsh marten]

Wait let me check real quick

[winged ether]

ah ok I misinterpreted, thanks

[shadow sapphire]

No that's just the declaration. I'd have to get to the file to be honest.

To my knowledge no, you need to recharge

[winged ether]

looks like I could combine them by dragging one over the other

[harsh marten]

nope i dont see any

[winged ether]

hm I just combined two artifact melters to get one with 2 uses remaining, but when trying to fuse it shows I have 2/2 uses but wont let me use them

[shadow sapphire]

When you started game did you click campfire saving tick box?

[shadow sapphire]

Save and reload

[harsh marten]

Normaly I cant save without the campfire, imma send a pic 1 sec

[buoyant stump]

Jesus Christ is hip immortal?

I'm raiding rookie village and she won't die

[hollow phoenix]

dug around some more but dont see anything matching the 5 minute timer

[shadow sapphire]

Pretty close. That's why I wonder how people get her killed

[buoyant stump]

damnit

guess I'll run for the bodies to loot and run away

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah ill take a look later, but it's not really setup for changing that. The feature is there primarily for RL intruding on your playing.

[shadow sapphire]

Good luck!

[buoyant stump]

[shadow sapphire]

No I meant when you created character did you select the box that says campfire saving

[harsh marten]

Ah damn I cant remember that was weeks ago😅

But I do remember that I kinda just started the game didnt really change or took something besides a shotgun and a OTs02

[hollow phoenix]

makes a less sense as to why u cant further accommodate by adjusting the timer but thats just me tho

ill leave it for now but thats a lil annoying thx tho

[harsh marten]

Wait my Bad im in Rostock close to Arnie, its a safezone

[shadow sapphire]

XD no worries

[winged ether]

still no worky 😦

[shadow sapphire]

Add a charge to the meter see what happens. I didn't think you could combine them but maybe I'm wrong?

[winged ether]

how do I add a charge?

[shadow sapphire]

Hold alt and mouse over an artifact with it. It eats the arti but charges the melter

[winged ether]

is that just on the inventory screen? Im holding alt and mousing over an artifact but there arent any options to eat it, and no new menu options

[shadow sapphire]

Sorry I explained incorrect. Pickup the arti melter so click and hold, then drop it on the artifact you want to eat

[winged ether]

awesome that worked, im gonna test to see if eating an artifact will make it recognize the proper uses remaining

also that is a total game changer for all of these low tier artifacts I dont need

[tidal raft]

Your entire modlist is scrambled. Sort by priority and it should solve itself.

[tidal raft]

Also yes, most indoor areas near important NPCs are safe areas.

[dense cargo]

sid wont radio me about afterglo 🥲

why

[tidal raft]

It can take a while.

[winged ether]

Hm it still doesnt recognize when you have exactly enough charges left
-tested at 1/1 2/2 and 3/3 with both loose artifacts and artifacts in LLMCs
-Tried saving and reloading
-tried dropping and picking up melter + artifacts

it's easy to eat just one more common artifact to put you 1 over to make it work but still annoying

[shadow sapphire]

How many mods?

Did you reload to before combining?

[winged ether]

327. I updated today around noon

Disabled:
-Audio - 15 - voiced actor
-GAMMA Fixes - GAMMA voiced actor
-Optional - YACS better campfire saves

Enabled:
-Good addons with bugs - Duty expansion

[winged ether]

Yes

[shadow sapphire]

I'll test today

[winged ether]

Cool. Not a huge issue but early on that could be annoying. Thanks for your patience and help as always

[soft cloak]

is the artifact not spawning for anyone else under the fir ecomet tunnel in dark valley? im stuck on that quest

[warped ginkgo]

iirc it spawns at the end of the tunnel

if it doesn't appear, try sleeping or pass time

and come back later

[soft cloak]

comet keeps killing me

[warped ginkgo]

need to avoid it

low crouch

[soft cloak]

cheers

[warped ginkgo]

comet pass, then you run

there are a couple of mini holes that you can hide in

[crude oyster]

comets are very cringe ngl

can't recall how many times i died on the vine anomaly from falling or not realizingi the pattern lel

[soft cloak]

quest marker coul be located better

[crude oyster]

just to get a 2 kg arti that makes my stamina go oof

btw where do you get those weird artifacts like the talking stone? i know that one is like some rare drop or something like that but are the ecologist collection missions related to it?

[winged ether]

interesting, I was able to kill like 20 people in Rostock (got made someone only gave me 450 RU for 2 joints) and I only got return fired when I sprayed a dude in an exosuit 8 times with buckshot

[tidal raft]

I don't see how this is a question related to #🔨base-gamma-support

If you want to tell a story about your amazing adventure you can use #╓☢stalker-chat

[valid axle]

why is Barkeep in Tier 1 when I have 2000+ goodwill with loners, duty and even clear sky?

[winged ether]

was wondering if it was a bug since it seems like Stalkers should react when you shoot someone of the same faction right next to them

[tidal raft]

Could be related to the stealth patches. Try setting Stealth 2.0 to default within MCM.

[north turret]

really struggling to repair a gun as i've been using my starter all game
if i cant find a part would i just use a toolkit to replace said part?
also do i need a toolkit to replace parts if i already have them or no?

[tidal raft]

Go to #🤖bot-commands and type "!apart".

[north turret]

thanks that clears it up

[tidal raft]

[north turret]

ok i'm still struggling a bit

it says weapon to rusty to take apart in field so i open the workbench to replace parts that are in my inventory and i dont have that option?

[terse hawk]

you need a gunkit then rightclick the gun

then maintain > replace x

so yea its not in the workbench

[north turret]

and that will replace them with the good parts i have?

or with new parts

can i not clean the gun and then drag and drop them?

[terse hawk]

it will clean the part that is dirty to 100%

so new parts

clean the gun like its condition?

[tidal raft]

Because the firearm's condition is too low.

[north turret]

oh new parts i was hoping to use spare parts i already have

[terse hawk]

you can drag and drop but it will reduce the gun condition a lot, use the workbench to replace without a condition drop

[tidal raft]

You need to clean it. Once it is clean you can put in parts without a repair kit.

[north turret]

oh i see and in regards to using workbench without condition drop i cant see the parts in my inventory for that

[terse hawk]

oh i never knew that, thought you needed workbench always

[tidal raft]

You won't be able to see them without the appropriate repair kit.

[north turret]

damn so for ak i need rifle kit

[regal lintel]

Hi guys, may I ask if it's me or is there something off about the AI?

I've encountered a total of 3 bandit groups camping and I end up walking up to them directly, even being able to speak with them before they start reacting as hostile..

[tidal raft]

Yes. If the barrel is over 60% you can use the same technique shown in APART.

Otherwise you need a repair kit to replace the barrel.

[north turret]

damn i have all parts but one. its going to be a long while yet considering i can't find a rifle kit

[shadow sapphire]

If you didn't update today, please do so, if still happening let us know.

[tidal raft]

Consider crafting a kit if you have the resources.

[shadow sapphire]

It's honestly still decently cheap if you need to buy a couple things like steel wool or what not

[north turret]

i need to buy 4 valuepro which is 5k each

[shadow sapphire]

Not 4 kits, 4 uses only need 1 kit

You can also make it

[north turret]

unfortunately i've just figured i need advanced tools as well 😂

[terse hawk]

yea grind for advanced tools, green stashes = guarenteed kit of some kind

once you get advanced then the game becomes a lot easier

[north turret]

bummer yea my gun is munted and my armour is gone 😂

[tidal raft]

Aussie, mate?

[terse hawk]

oof, never let it get below like 70 for armor and 75 for guns

[north turret]

nz

[tidal raft]

Close.

Like coalition said, best to start maintaining the starting gear very early.
It is much easier to maintain already well kept gear.

[north turret]

ye i got some armour from clear sky which is now on 15 percent

[tidal raft]

Is it a light outfit?

[north turret]

cs-1

looks light

[tidal raft]

Check Details.

[north turret]

yep light armour

[tidal raft]

You're in luck. See outfit repairs of APART.

You'll be able to fix that.

[north turret]

i need another special kit

its 15 percent so i need to replace individual parts

[tidal raft]

You have a Basic toolkit, right?

[north turret]

yup

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah make a light armor repair kit. You don't need to get every part to 100, though that is the cheapest way. You just need to get the suit to 50 and then you can burn a charge of the light armor kit to get it into repairable territory.

[tidal raft]

Then you can craft a Light Outfit Repair Kit and replace those parts.

[north turret]

hmm ok

[tidal raft]

That info was already in APART.

[north turret]

i was looking for something referring to light armour

i've spent hours trying to work it out

[tidal raft]

The principle is the same for all outfits.

Just different tiers.

Always check Details for requirements.

[north turret]

i've played vanilla anomaly before gamma is quite overwhelming for me

but i'm enjoying it so far

just some systems are very in depth

[tidal raft]

Yep, it's a high starter threshold.

[north turret]

damn so i still need the parts in my inventory to repair my armour too

[tidal raft]

I take it you haven't been salvaging much at all.

[north turret]

i've been salvaging every corpse i come across

[tidal raft]

As in, disassembling their equipment. #│📚manual

[clever flame]

Is there a way to remove the upgrades off of a gun? (Reliability, accuracy, handling, etc). I’m trying to use the Upgrade Kit you buy from a trader and don’t want to lose the upgrades I put into this thing

[shadow sapphire]

No

[tidal raft]

No. Upgrades are permanent.

[clever flame]

Shiiiit

I just dropped like three T1 & T2 handling kits on this thing

[shadow sapphire]

Good thing you can make them

In vanilla you would just be sol

[dense cargo]

unhandled exception occurred :*(

[crude oyster]

technically you can get them back... if you disassemble the entire weapon/suit

[tidal raft]

Which also destroys the firearm.

[crude oyster]

right

of course gamma just needs the "gun lore" mod where you watch a video of your gun getting reassembled with the gotye trap remix and boom you got your gun back

[shadow sapphire]

!version

[raw raft]

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

[dense cargo]

621

This has been happening intermittently from the beginning.. maybe 6 updates since?

a couple months

[shadow sapphire]

Update, then disable mod 44.

[dense cargo]

oo, has that been enabled for a while between versions?

I think last version? it was disabled.. and now that i think ab it i didnt have the errors around that time

[quartz vine]

i assume toolkits are still stash rng only

[tidal raft]

Ofc.

[shadow sapphire]

Yeah. The day we disabled it, my self and some others started having weird npc spawning issues, I told grok it was the issue, so it got re enabled until we could test and determine. Turns out I had a messed up folder, and the others fixed by reinstalling so once grok tests himself hopefully it will be gone again. But I've been running without it for a few days now and have had no issues. @dense cargo

[quartz vine]

guess ill die cos no stashes with toolkits so far , i need something to repair some of the armor i have and weapons cos god damn the USP and Toz wont cut it

atleast i have 4 artifacts for sale tho

so thats neat

[dense cargo]

I see, thanks for the insight. Ive been wondering whats causing that random error

[shadow sapphire]

Trade 7 bottles of neimoroff to spirit for basic or finish hips first quest.

[dense cargo]

Ive been in top 10 for a while and the bounty squads dont seem to work anyway so no skin off my back

[shadow sapphire]

Anytime, I want yall to have the best experience possible!

[sly lark]

is there any way to invert scroll/mouse wheel? (zoom direction mainly)

[shadow sapphire]

That's basically what I've found is it doesn't even seem to work, half the time I just see it error out

[dense cargo]

weapon type toolkits or like.. basic/advanced/expert tools?

[quartz vine]

so get neimoroffs asap alright

[quartz vine]

anything to have option to repair

armor wise atleast

weapon wise i just pray to find a good 12 gauge (preferbly a saiga that has atleast barrel in perfect condition) and maybe a 556 / 545 gun

[shadow sapphire]

Ps hips first task is for a toz194 not the fucking rare one. You can get it off bandits. Literally this run my first kill had it. Giver her that and 20x 12ga buck and tools.

[dense cargo]

And once you have the tools you can use it as workbench to craft a light armor repair kit for cheap. you either have the mats or you buy them off Xenotech

[quartz vine]

i have mats already dw

i think i can repair CS-2t

[regal lintel]

Hi again all, thanks for the tip about updating earlier. I'll see if it affects the latest bandits I'll be facing.. I have another question

Is there any way to wait out the time somewhere? My character doesn't want to sleep 'coz he ain't sleepy yet, but I don't have a way to kill time for daylight (it's pretty dark already)

[uneven prism]

so uh

wtf is 176781999471390016

[dense cargo]

do you have sleeping tablets? or extra food?

or marijuana

or alcohol

[winter raptor]

[shadow sapphire]

Why?

[winter raptor]

does trader price depend on your rep or goodwill? or both?

[uneven prism]

Thats what im sayin

[shadow sapphire]

Oh. Its called a numbers station.

look it up

(not anomaly related) Just probably a cool bit of fluff

[winter raptor]

p

[uneven prism]

So how do I decode it

[shadow sapphire]

I dont know that we can. At the minimum you would have to find a key for it, and I dont think there is one in the game. I think its honestly nonsense there for atmospheric reasons. Still cool though.

[uneven prism]

Is it a part os GAMMA or is that in base anomaly

[compact birch]

im pretty sure it's just fluff, how they say random stuff. during an emission if you have like the RF reciever on it wigs out and you hear the numbers station "the buzzer" and morse code and all sorta strange crap

[uneven prism]

ah

Still pretty cool

[buoyant stump]

is that 7 bottles or 7 uses?

like i got 3 uses in a bottle rn

[shadow sapphire]

20 uses so almost 7 full bottles

[buoyant stump]

oof

[shadow sapphire]

Yup

[crude oyster]

shoot, is there a map of the various ecologist researchers for the explorers quests? can't remember where vorobushkin is

[uneven prism]

Does anyone know where i can sell the Documents that are "Heavily Encrypted" to?

the description is like just a bunch of random letters with it sayings its only worth selling

[winter raptor]

so for an advanced toolkit 20 times 5 you would need a 100 uses of nemiroff to craft up advanced tools out of 5 basic

you would prepare spirit for life

1 nemiroff is around 1k ruble

~35k rubles for advanced tools

can you even buy infinite basic tools from spirit

[echo elk]

Mechanics or usual traders take them afaik

[pseudo salmon]

How much electrical resist is good for early game electro anomalys like garbage and meadow?

[carmine wyvern]

if you play smart you dont need any

electro resist matters for the exact moment when you step into one

and even with relatively high res you are almost one-shot anyway

the "ambient" damage they do is negligible

all the other resistance types are more worth speccing into

[pseudo salmon]

but u need some at least right so u dont lose too much suit durability right? or do you go in naked?

[carmine wyvern]

i always take the Electrical Resistance that comes with the suit and nothing more

i wont use upgrade slots for any further electrical resistance

and Camelbaks, but they reduce electrical resistance by 14% which is certain death when stepping into one

[pseudo salmon]

do u ever buy the surge protectors?

[carmine wyvern]

you could get the Volat Artifact in the endgame that gives your 99% to all resistances

[carmine wyvern]

no

[pseudo salmon]

im still at basic tools at this run as a merc

[carmine wyvern]

play smart and dont step into electrical anomalies and you are fine

at the start take something like a Camelbak and Armor Plates

[pseudo salmon]

ok

im currently at 37% fire resist, 7% electric, and 14% chem. Just trying to figure out what anomalies are worth it without breaking the bank on sewing kits

[carmine wyvern]

at this stage ?

none

going for artis early game is not worth it

[pseudo salmon]

except gravitational right?

[carmine wyvern]

yea

they mostly require high rad res tho

[pseudo salmon]

make sense thanks for the input!

[carmine wyvern]

alternatively you could use drugs to boost your chemical resistance

but your suit will still take damage

but for a rule of thumb at the current stage:

any item/artifact that give you negativ resistance will kill you, take them off go artifact hunting and re-equip after you are done

the resistance calculation is....broken for the time being

[quiet robin]

Anyone know whats causing the water to look so funky ?

[graceful iron]

usually its related to AMD GPUs, but you can try deleting the shaders cache and checking if its a visual setting you changed

!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.

[quiet robin]

yeah it probs is coz of using AMD gpu and mine is an "old" one so its just constant problems on other games too

ill try if that helps thanks mate !

[turbid gull]

Whats the best way to get advanced tools? Currently doing a merc run and i have yet to come across one/don’t have enough basic tools to craft it

[carmine wyvern]

loot stashes, do quests

there is no easy cheese for merc, like the loners got

[graceful iron]

you have a chance to get advanced tools from the patch lottery

[carmine wyvern]

you could try doing some quests for CS

[turbid gull]

Alright, thank you 😃

[compact coral]

get a fuck ton of quests and finish them all, then see if youre lucky with your stashes
dunno if its a thing with cordon but i got like 3 in the north near the military checkpoint, getting missions in the dark valley and garbage can also help too imo

[carmine wyvern]

Limansk, Dead City, Yantar, Dark Valley, Army Warehouses and Truck Cemetery can contain Advanced

[harsh marten]

Green/purple stashes or random MHZ mission from anonymous person, I got mine with Dark Valley and 47 MHZ, every load or after you traveled to another zone the message will pop up with "dont forget about the hidden stash XYZ MHZ in ABC zone" it might be based on progress, I have over 1,000 points ( green ones ) and a goodwill with 2 factions over 500.

[vapid talon]

Hey ! In gamma is still worth giving basic tools to Xenotech ?

[primal relic]

i do it for the money when i have them to spare

[carmine wyvern]

no, only give kits away when you got multiple

Kits are important for crafting stuff yourself

[vapid talon]

Thanks guys, i wanted to be sure.

[proven thorn]

Is there a list of which SMGs can be one-handed?

[runic stone]

sorry for interrupting you chads, i wanna ensure to not have my artefacts degrading over time and i wanna make sure to make the correct settings, wich settings should i change

[low peak]

Just received a 100 condition armor, it's worse than the one i'm using. Should I disassemble it? I can't sell it

[graceful iron]

mp7/p90/SR-2M. thats all of them

[graceful iron]

yes, disassemble it for parts or keep it for disguise

[proven thorn]

[low peak]

[graceful iron]

radioactive artefacts dont degrade over time, but junk ones do. you can go to the mcm > perk based artefacts and tweak the degradation on them or make it 0

dont change any of the other (artefacts condition) settings tho, they will have a big warning on them not to since they can cause issues

[runic stone]

thank you good cat fella ❤️

[pseudo salmon]

Do you lose rep when you get a hit man quest for an allied faction? Like if im merc and i get a quest from bandits to kill a freedomer, do i lose freedomer rep when i make the kill?

Also if you do it while disguised with a silenced sniper shot do you lose rep? what about an IED?

[carmine wyvern]

i would NEVER EVER accept a Kill quest in the middle of a faction hub, if you kill the wrong guy the whole base will get aggroed on your forever

[sweet seal]

eh question, probably in the wrong area again, but i keep getting a fatal script error that crashes me as soon as i try to start the game about "placeable furniture". It looks like this

LUA error: c:/anomaly/bin/..\gamedata\scripts\grok_spawn_lights.script:54: attempt to index global 'placeable_furniture' (a nil value)

[graceful iron]

how many addons active in mo2 ?did you disable anything ?

[sweet seal]

329

I only enabled 1 more which was "death animations", and disabled it after the crash, but same issues still.

[pseudo salmon]

thats good to know. ive never really tried killing allies before. but being a merc mad bomber in Rostok is bae

[carmine wyvern]

you cant go to rostok as a merc w/o bloodshed

Duty and Mercs are Enemies

except using Disguise

[uneven prism]

@graceful iron Who gives you the mission to get the documents in x16

I had an old run where I had it but now that I'm looking I dont have that mission anymore

[worn moat]

Can I disable relation loss with Mercs when completing tasks for Loners/Duty/CS when playing as a Loner?

[pseudo salmon]

Yeah i go in disguised for hit jobs in rostok + 10 sec IED. Then shoot my way thru the checkpoint to escape into Truck cemetery. When i use 30sec fuses and get too far away, they dont seem to detonate

[graceful iron]

any red X's in the modlist ? when did you last install or update ?

[sweet seal]

yes 3 red X's

whether they're enabled or disabled

i just last installed/updated about an hour ago

ill give it another go though

i will say with the red x's enabled it shows that i have 332 active mods

[graceful iron]

can you screenshot the addons? or get their names

just the ones with the red X

[sweet seal]

(both of these are under Newly Added Addons) Gardener of the Zone Textures , AUGmented Weapon Pack Addons , Weird Tasks Framework (G.A.M.M.A Disabled)

[graceful iron]

gardener of the zone an aug pack should be installed and enabled. follow the guide for missingmods to install them correctly

!missingmods

[raw raft]

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

Explaining WHY you're missing something from the mod list:

Moddb isn't really suited for the installer, it's not that much ordinary to download 300+ mods casually every other day, so you can lose some files in the process, when you download them.
MO2 can't obviously know if you have everything or not. This is because, if the file structure of the mod is "okay", the mod is "okay".
Anomaly, on the other hand knows right away that something is wrong, because it has to look for certain files in certain mods, and if those files are not there, the game crashes.

[graceful iron]

to find the addon easily, just right click on it in mo2 and visit on moddb

[sweet seal]

okay!

[graceful iron]

@sweet seal did you update anomaly to 1.5.2 already?

if not, follow the update guide

!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

[sweet seal]

i did update, following your instructions and the guide instructions now, hopefully all works. will get back to you soon

launching the game and retesting now

no longer missing mods

still crashing

utterly confuzzled

[graceful iron]

post the crash log

also, screenshot the anomaly folder

[lime ibex]

I have a jellyfish and a bat in my inventory, but i am just wondering

1. I can only transmute the artefact, but it says i can also upgrade it, but thats not an option. Whats going on?
2. What is the upgraded variant of the jellyfish?

[graceful iron]

transmute will upgrade/mutate the artefact

i think its a chance thing

[lime ibex]

Oh so upgrade or transmute

And does the condition remain the same?

My jellyfish is like 99%, will the wrenched (iirc) also be 99%?

[graceful iron]

i dont remember if it changes or not

you can save and test it

[lime ibex]

Alright

Do armor plates degrade?

[graceful iron]

no

[lime ibex]

Or surge suppressors

Only mutant pelts and perk artys do that then?

[graceful iron]

belt attachments dont degrade, only junk artefacts do

perk based artefacts

[lime ibex]

Alright, thanks

[pulsar yoke]

Guys should I rather use the in game aliasing or the one in the nvidia control panel ?

is there anyway to sort items by weight?

not sure whats weighing me down

[carmine wyvern]

combine items

medkits, vodka, drugs, repairkits

basically everything that can have multiple uses

[versed tusk]

no sorting for weight, besides the sorting.ltx and that only sorts by categories

it's recommended over favourites tbh - but takes a bit of work

[brave bone]

i see

btw im trying to repair some armors i found

[carmine wyvern]

i think @brisk zinc needs to expand the FAQ

drag the PU onto it? it should still take it

[versed tusk]

iirc the sks is the only gun not showing the PU compatibility

[graceful iron]

oh. because grok added the PU to this specific sks manually

[versed tusk]

ye

[graceful iron]

he didnt add it to the attachments part of the details

[opal relic]

Im doing the Sample finding quests in Army warehouses and cant seem to find the sample in the hells walls anomaly. Is it meant to be there or is it a bit away from the marker?

[next dagger]

All of my squad died in a psy storm getting stuck in a door in limansk. I remember a recent update that prevented this kind of death for companions, what happened after that?

[opal relic]

As far as I know the companion immunity should still be in effect...

[versed tusk]

the one in the town?

[willow hawk]

toolkits are only in marked stashes and rarely laying in the world

[willow hawk]

that's because of how the attachment is made iirc

I don't think the base game sks or k98 show the scopes in details as well

because it uses an old method for attachments

[opal relic]

Yeah with the old chimney stack in the middlee

[versed tusk]

it is further south in one of the houses on the 2nd floor

pretty much straight south from the marker

[opal relic]

Thought something like that may be the case, thatll teach me for reading but not looking XD

[versed tusk]

you are one step ahead of most people - reading

[opal relic]

Now i just gotta learn to do as the sacred scriptures foretell!

Got him, stupid me wanted to loot little box, was a dumb move, thank duck I repaired and kept a Ruby suit!

[echo elk]

Mosin too!

[willow hawk]

yeah all the ones working with bones hiding

[gaunt pecan]

Good afternoon.
My mouse sensitivity is constantly reset, even when I'm dying. Also because of this, I can't use optical sights because the sensitivity becomes unplayable.
How can this be fixed?

[willow hawk]

open the game, save your sensitivity. Quit the game. Relaunch it

[quartz sinew]

hello
im very interested in this mod but i would like to know how i would be able to run this with the vanilla anomaly economy, with vendors selling weapons, no rebalanced economy etc.
if anybody could gimme a hand i would greatly appreciate it

[versed tusk]

if you want to negate/disable what makes this mod so great, go to #🤖bot-commands and type !vanilla

[willow hawk]

Don't underestimate the changes made 😉 . But if you are allergic to fun, you can enable Trader Overhaul and load it last

[tribal plover]

Ok, lol, what's the deal with custom stalker names (i killed two Aldouriens so far) and is there a way to disable them? Kinda "stabs the eye".

[covert spindle]

any way to get a psy helmet in a game that i unchecked story mode?

[north turret]

debug mode

had to do the same myself

[carmine wyvern]

never seen a stalker named like that

[covert spindle]

so open console and type something?

[versed tusk]

activate debug

!debug

[raw raft]

How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[north turret]

item spawner, I think quest items, spawn the helmet, it just works

[carmine wyvern]

i wish i could look like aslan

man is a tank

[covert spindle]

thank you guys

[north turret]

There are two of them.

Read carefully and take the calibrated one.

[tribal plover]

For example

[median gazelle]

how do u keep game settings and reshade settings after updating GAMMA ?

[carmine wyvern]

ahhh

[tribal plover]

:|

[carmine wyvern]

those are from ANUS and not translated into Russian/Ukrainian

hence the Western Letters

[willow hawk]

you enabled ANUS ?

[carmine wyvern]

#🤖bot-commands and type !backup

[tribal plover]

Nope

[willow hawk]

@wet haven You are working on disabling ANUS names translation by default in Russian no ?

[covert spindle]

once i have it in my inv im good? i dont see an activate or anything

[real tiger]

yo, guys

all stalker nicknames start with A, rarely with B
everyone I meet is either Agafopus, or Aurelius lmao

how can I fix that? what mod corresponds to that? thank you

[tribal plover]

Translation error, as it seems

[north turret]

Yeah. It stays there.

[covert spindle]

ok ty

[north turret]

yeah it works just like that
go to Yantar's lab environment, Red Forest or closer to center, you will not get the psi-protection warning or psy-drain

[real tiger]

I mean I've killed like third Aurelius in like an hour

[covert spindle]

awesome, didnt want to start a new game with story mode lol

[wet haven]

Opened PR #42 will make translated name files empty (and disabling them completely), but this will require to start new game. Not doing so and updating modpack will result in IDs instead of names.

[willow hawk]

maybe make an extra addon named in russian 'tick for old saves' with old files

[real tiger]

enabled that ANomaly updated nicknames mod

didnt help

everyone is still Aurelius, Agaphiy, Andrey, Avdey etc

[tribal plover]

Tbf ANUS names are kinda silly anyway, do they really need to be on by default?

[orchid barn]

They aren’t AFAIK

I ended up not liking the default English names & had to turn it on

[real tiger]

but my problem is that like 80% of nicknames start with A

[wet haven]

This will work, yes, but in my view: either not fully translated names as of current, or the same names as identifiers, like choosing between bad and worst. That's why I suggested this PR for the merge only when starting a new game is necessary.

But if you think the option with a separate addon is not a bad idea, I have nothing against it. But I can't do it for now, out of town, will return in a week. Basically, it's just moving ANUS files from 228 into separate thing, then merging PR42.

[willow hawk]

Ok will do when I have time

[real tiger]

in order for ANUS to work I need new game?

[orchid barn]

The name update expands the list of names significantly, so Stalkers spawned with vanilla names only pull from the top of the list. After a week or so of simulated in-game time enough will die & respawn that you’ll start seeing the full list

[real tiger]

aaahh

[orchid barn]

You can fast-track that by starting a new game if you want

[real tiger]

thanks dude

lets hope they die fast

[wet haven]

You'll need a new game to disable it that's for sure

[real tiger]

mods starting to work

thank you guys!

[tribal plover]

Well, they are.
They are for certain going for quantity over quality, default names at least looks in-line with timeline.

[orchid barn]

AFAIK you can disable it just fine, but the reverse will be true. You’ll see a lot of nameID codes until those Stalkers die off

[real tiger]

whats up with ANUS ?

can you show me an example of names

they're really that bad? x)

[tribal plover]

Some of the names are from Ancient Greece or Roman Empire. Like, what for lmao.

[real tiger]

ahh. all my names are from ancient greece without that mod tho

Aurelius and shit

[orchid barn]

I play in English with anglicized names, so I’m not in a position to judge that. I just like the faction-specific naming logic that ANUS has

[tribal plover]

yeah, because for some reason ANUS names slipped into default russian localization, so for some reason even without ANUS on you will see them.

[real tiger]

AND I have plenty of old slavic names

sych as Agaphiy

[tribal plover]

Yeah, like there's literally 0 Agaphons i've met in my 30 years of life in Russia, yet here we are xD

[real tiger]

пиздец, короче

[desert slate]

[quartz sinew]

thank you a lot for the attention, and for the mod pack. im sure you guys are working a lot for this to happen
dont get me wrong, i can see where you guys are coming from and what you're trying to do but, personally, i believe it makes the game a whole lot more grindy, crafty oriented and also adds an extra rng factor that i dont wanna have to deal with. im simply tired of rpg mechanics
i just want to talk to a vendor, get the gun i want, and have my fun by just killing things and trying to get my sorry ass back to camp in one piece with all the loot i can carry 😁

[versed tusk]

and that's fine - it is modular for a reason, we just like to tease a little.
Working towards a gun/armor feels so much better, you have a longer progression arc and will actually feel the tension of survival. Once you reach Midgame you dont need to worry about a thing as long as you engaged with the mechanics.

All in all, just as I already told ya - go to #🤖bot-commands and type !vanilla to get the full guide on how to achieve this in a few simple steps after you got the game running and installed properly

you enjoy the zone the way you want to

[compact coral]

whats a good weapon combo to start venturing to the north?

more especifically, the red forest

[north turret]

an assault rifle with an optic and a mountain of ammo

[versed tusk]

any 556/545/57/938 will do, silencer & a kit for close/long range option is fine

i usually bring a shotty + FNX for muties extra

[willow hawk]

Just debug the gun, much less trouble

[versed tusk]

that also works

[willow hawk]

keep in mind there's no trader profile balanced around gamma stuff

you can turn on the "Trader sell Mags" stuff from gamma (which adds guns to traders) and remove the trader preset file from gamma

this should make traders sell guns somewhat balanced, even though you can get good guns super early most likely for nothing in terms of cost

so all in all, just debug yourself some guns and have fun since you don't want to spend some time grinding@quartz sinew

buy useless shit and throw it if spending money is what you want

[distant pumice]

i got a few questions if anyone doesnt mind. 1st one, so since buying weapons and armors isnt possible by default how is one to get the TOZ for Hip? is there a spot where it spawns in the world for it or a quest reward? 2nd one, what quest(s) does enabling the "Mystery of the Zone new quest" under DLTX add?

[versed tusk]

The TOZ can be acquired by killing Bandits, lot's of them. Not sure which other factions might bring it, probably Renegades too.

The other questin I sadly have no clue - never used it

[willow hawk]

don't use that mystery of the zone quest

it's really bad

like, to the point that after the feedback I got from people I removed it

[distant pumice]

damn THAT bad huh

[willow hawk]

only interesting part was visiting the monolith warlab, but you can do it through a military storyline, which you can do with any faction thanks to the disguise system

get an ecolog or military armor, fix it up to 100% go to mil base and don't act funny

you will be able to speak with people and do quests and you'll eventually even be accepted by them

[distant pumice]

i must be really unlucky cause ive been in a constant war with the bandits and occasional renegade squad around the stalker camp north of the railway bridge 😅

[distant pumice]

i give that a go once ive gotten a bit more geared up, loving the modpack btw great work to you and everyone involved

[north turret]

Even if you are really close to them?

[willow hawk]

yes

already walked in merc base disguised as ecolog like it was nothing

until I released I was disguised and why the bar was increasing xD

[sly swan]

Anyone knows what kind of vodka that guy in yantar wants for a basic repair kit?

[willow hawk]

red bottle

[azure valve]

been having this error for some reason, i've searched the chat history in the server for a fix, but the only one there wasnt working. also just done a fresh install of only anomaly and still the same thing

[warped ginkgo]

do you have any audio devices connected?

[azure valve]

i have headphones

[warped ginkgo]

had the Crash on my own modded anomaly some time sgo

[azure valve]

the game was working fine last night

[warped ginkgo]

and It was BC i had no audio devices connected

[azure valve]

it crashed before i got off for the night

and now this error

okay well i just restarted my pc and it works now

[meager nimbus]

Hello, flash light, lantern and any light do not work, any solution?

I know how use both item, but don't work

[worthy meadow]

Hi fellas, is there any sort of list with the ingame achievements and their benefits? got one for disassembling stuff, wondering what else is out there

[versed tusk]

your PDA lists them all + bonuses

[versed tusk]

have you cleared shader cashe already? Is everything else working, like guns, looting etc?

[meager nimbus]

Yes and yes, i can equipe lantern and use, but don work, the ilumination don't work

Energy drains

[versed tusk]

i dont know then, i had this happen with busy hands, but it also made my Health HUD stop working as an indicator

and you deleted the shader folder, not done via the launcher?

[meager nimbus]

I do not touch the shader settings or folder

[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]

try it, it might be the reason

[meager nimbus]

Ok, thank you bro, i'm going to try

[young plinth]

What to do if there's still no 329 active addons after 3 complete gamma installs?

[shadow sapphire]

How many are active?

[young plinth]

276, from old version

I figured I had to do complete gamma install after updating gamma data when it's been that long

[shadow sapphire]

Installer version?

Also anomaly version

[young plinth]

3.2 and 1.5.1

[north turret]

!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

[shadow sapphire]

!installer

[raw raft]

The latest G.A.M.M.A. installer is 3.7. Make sure you have it. If you don't: #📢announcements message

How to update the installer:

1. Open your G.A.M.M.A. RC3 folder
2. Go in .Grok's Modpack Installer folder
3. You'll find G.A.M.M.A. Installer, don't delete it, just drag and drop the new installer in here
4. Windows will ask you if you want to replace the old installer with the new one, click on Yes

[shadow sapphire]

You need the new installer and to update anomaly to 1.5.2

[young plinth]

what de hell 1.5.2 anomaly is real

[shadow sapphire]

Yup is indeed real

[untold creek]

mod organizer launches vanilla anomaly how to fix?

[north turret]

If it's selected the Anomaly Launcher, change it to other executable.

[shadow sapphire]

Do you have to anomalies?

[untold creek]

my hdd died I tried to move it but files were missing from anomaly folder

I re downloaded anomaly and it does this

I ran the gamma launcher to update it but it doesn't change anything in mo2

[shadow sapphire]

If it's a total fresh anomaly in a different spot follow the instructions for #old-how-to regarding the gamma installer. I.e. run as admin -> Allow Powershell -> create a new portable instance for mo2 -> full gamma install. Make sure your anomaly is 1.5.2 and your installer is 3.7

[pulsar yoke]

||Is it intended, that when I join Clear Sky the first two missions I have to do is helping the mercenaries ?? ||

[steady cave]

Is there a way to enable the transition question when near the exit of a zone?

its really annoying when you are in a battle near one of these points and you walk backwards into the exit and it takes you out and despawns the corpses

[raven sparrow]

Check MCM settings, there might be something there

[pulsar yoke]

yeah same, failed a quest because of that

[raven sparrow]

@pulsar yoke I havn't played Clear sky, but for loners its random I think who you have to meed up with and do a sidequest for

So probably the same for clear sky

[pulsar yoke]

Oh ok thx

[raven sparrow]

Some are just straight worse to get though, like I got find 4xMP5A3s for the freedom leader in Jupiter, I havn't seen a single unmodified one in my entire play through. Can

Can't seem to cancel the quest either XD

All quest lines lead to the same end though so its fine I think

[pulsar yoke]

I had to go into the lab X8 I think it was in Pripyat Outskirts and find some documents there for mercenaries

[raven sparrow]

I got that one as a normal quest as a loner

[pulsar yoke]

As soon as I entered I heard a crying baby, freaked the shit out of me at first

[raven sparrow]

Havn't done it yet though.

[north turret]

In MO go to "Optional" and look for 206-Areas transition without confirm. you can disable it if you want

[raven sparrow]

Burers can be scary creatures, rifle grenades works wonders against them though

[steady cave]

Thanks!!

[willow hawk]

It’s random

And Mercs are your allies

[pulsar yoke]

Yeah I noticed, goodbye Dead City merc farm runs

[north turret]

how can give a target god i.e a companion that wont die?

[orchid barn]

Just take Hip

[north turret]

she doesnt die?

i left her cause i didnt want her to get blasted

[orchid barn]

She’s extremely tanky. Theoretically she can, but I’ve yet to see it happen

[harsh marten]

can i start the game with DX11

[north turret]

yes

[harsh marten]

even DX8? does it crash or anything

i mean he said start the game in DX11 AVX

[north turret]

Im not sure

[harsh marten]

yeap thats my problem rn i dont wanna lose everything

[north turret]

why do you want to use DX8?

[harsh marten]

FPS boost

i have tried the videos settins and so on

didnt try to disable reshades but i dont want the original look XD

[north turret]

Yeah even with my 3060 ti this game runs at like 30 fps

[harsh marten]

it is ugly asf

thats why i wanna see if it works

[north turret]

How do i return the old looking anomalies

[harsh marten]

whats the difference between DX11 and DX 11-AVX? and or DX 8 and D8-AVX?

[north turret]

like what mod do i have to disable to have the vanilla anomalies back(the new anomalies in the pack like the fruit punch in a dense area can cause massive stutter)

[harsh marten]

fuck it im gonna run DX8-AVX and see what happends wish me luck

[shadow sapphire]

AVX is basically allows the CPU to be used for some graphics stuff

[harsh marten]

huh my 99% GPU everytime i play the game says otherwise

but thanks for the explanation

[shadow sapphire]

You want GPU at 99%

GPU utilizations directly corresponds to how many frames you get. Higher usage == more frames.

By freeing up some GPU stuff to CPU you get more frames.

[harsh marten]

but it can brake after a long time of usage right

[shadow sapphire]

Nope, they are designed for that.

[harsh marten]

the texture is black cant really see shit at night so thats a no go.

[shadow sapphire]

As long as heat stays in a reasonable range (under 80 or 85 depoending on card)

[shadow sapphire]

It might not be possible with your processor, which one do you have?

[harsh marten]

i7-3770 3.40 and 3.80 ghz

[shadow sapphire]

Let me check for you

Should support AVX

[harsh marten]

dont get me wrong the game works fine most of the times but i do get random stutters even if i changed the settings and turned the '' on if you stutter''

[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

[shadow sapphire]

Did you do all that?

[harsh marten]

yes

[shadow sapphire]

Where do you get the stutter?

[harsh marten]

i think its because somethings is going on in the map im in or when something spawns

its random thats the thing

i cant really figure it out

oh yeah and now in rostok i feel like i have 20 fps

i have the fps limit set to my monitor refresh rate of 144

[shadow sapphire]

Rostok is going to be rough. Honestly. If you turn off the helmet visuals you will get an extra 10fps on average

[harsh marten]

so its more of a to many NPC kind of a thing right

ah whatever the zone is the zone imma play regardless

thanks again for the time and help

[slender kettle]

anybody know the exact times for the moon artifact? is 'dusk' 9 p.m. in the zone?

[shadow sapphire]

Anytime!

[pulsar yoke]

I had to do a quest in dead city for Hog, with the Merc but he is hostile towards me, attacks me with a knife all other mercs are fine only he attacks me for some reason? I'm Clear Sky faction

Managed to talk to him and get the quest while he attacked me with his knife

[shadow sapphire]

I believe 9pm is night

[slender kettle]

thanks!

[shadow sapphire]

give me a moment and ill let you know

[slender kettle]

time to eat caffeine tablets like candy so my char doesn't pass out before 9 then x)

Is there a console command to temporarily hide the body health UI? It seems to be the only new element unaffected by hud_draw, and I wanted to pop it off for a second to grab some screenshots.

Oh, it's just a toggle? Thanks

[shadow sapphire]

Friend of the night is 9pm - 5am ingame

[leaden rampart]

is the nvg hand animation from vanilla anomaly or from a mod? wondering if it can be disabled because i'm pretty sure it gave me busy hands

[shadow sapphire]

Vanilla. I think someone found a way to disable it. Its the Headlamp animation.

[winter island]

Hi guys

So i see gamma have that body dot in minimap. But if i activate it, the game crash ?

Just started playing 30min

[shadow sapphire]

It shouldnt crash. How many active addons. I use it myself?

[winter island]

Uhh im away from my pc right now. But if i remember it, when i tick the body dot it said to overwrote 1 file from another mod

[mortal mist]

what are the mod names that dont let you buy guns and sell them

[shadow sapphire]

When you get back to your pc, send me the log and a picture of mo2 please

[shadow sapphire]

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

[river forge]

Is Arszi's Radiation Overhaul integrated in GAMMA in any way?

In the base vanilla modlist I mean

[shadow sapphire]

!vanilla

[raw raft]

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

[north turret]

yeah its just i dont want to have to save up a ton to fix some shitty gun

[shadow sapphire]

You dont have to save up to fix a gun.

Its literally cheaper than buying any gun with vanilla economy, even if you buy all the parts to do it.

[versed tusk]

just debug it in, save yourself any trouble

[inner plover]

Anyway to get my companions back after I used a guide to fast travel? I enabled companion teleport but it didn't work

[main raft]

the repair and maintenance portion of gamma is fun imo
