just click again on the gamma update button and then proceed with the installation as usual
the gamma_definition.zip should be 402,497kb in size
any less than that and you have a corrupted file that will fail to install any updates
so once you upgrade a gun with a tactical kit, does the gun become a component of itself
am I going to have to replace the lebedev pistol itself
I did fix this thing up to 100% before installing the kit too, I dunno why it says 83
It's a component. It does not affect anything. Just displays it for some weird reason.
phew thanks
Isn't there a recipe or something that requires a snork mask?
Got a bunch of them and wondering if I should hoard or sell
.... I honestly don't think so but I could be wrong
I swear I thought I seen something that needs a snork mask but I can't find it.
I honestly don't remember one.
Yea I can't find it. Maybe I'm just going crazy 
snork masks are shown as armor parts sometimes
maybe as a material for repair kits
by accident
you can use them for some repairs
but youre better sellign them
Ok thanks
in coffee description it says better to drink hot, is it just for immersion or there it becomes weaker as time passes or something, are there some numbers behind it?
I am trying to repair my armor and it's showing it in the repair interface but I can't click on it to select it, repeated with multiple tools, m17, emergency armor repair and the armor repair kit, any idea what causes this?
It's upgraded if that might be the cause
it displays the gun so disassembling the upgrade gun makes you get the gun back
ah okay that's neat
Reloading the game fixed it, must've been a bug
I encountered this bug too. Reload fixes
As my first advanced weapon, which one should I repair: ds arms sa58 (aus and osw), svds, sr25; going to use it for both sniping and mid range full auto. The above guns are all I have found so far; I wan the scar h but no luck so far
also have a vssk, sv98 and sako trg but those are sniper only due to low rate of fire
Personally either the SA58 or SR-25
sa58 which one? the aus and osw both have the same stats but aus is longer in length and takes some tactical kits
Guys, what's this bug when you're in the crafting menu, and suddenly this item description keeps blocking the whole thing and I can't click anything even if I can see the stuff I want to craft?
!tooltip
If the tooltip is stuck in the crafting menu:
It's you closing the menu with the cursor on it
ah i see
that makes way more sense
and im glad i know now i fucking hate walking around here its so long and theres nothing here basically
Thanks, mate
I'm decently along in current playthrough but haven't unlocked any of the recipes in the craft menu. I remember seeing one for sale but didn't buy it. I've read through some previous chats including the search word "recipes" but am still unclear. How does it work now? In the past they were found iirc.
They're disabled in GAMMA, you have all recipes aside from certain exo things.
Keys to move forward in noclip. Edited message couse lost the original
Left click and Right click
Then you can use Shift or Ctrl to go faster
Are you sure you can't move forward with W?
Ah yes
Ah! Didnt know can use left click and right buttons. Sounds perfect. Thanks you!
Is there a prerequisite (goodwill for example) for buying the Melter? I hauled my ass to the Yantar bunker and it wasn't on sale.
(I'm Loner)
yeah goodwill
might be level 2 (500 goodwill) or 3 (1000 goodwill)
Thanks!
Still having issue with scopes overwriting my sensitivity
hey is there a keybind to change the reticle on this ac16032 sight ?
no, you get what you see
aight I thought it was modeled thanks
sad about the faction leaders :c
Good on you for using the search function. 
Hello! How to get back weapon and armor stats in bars, not these unaesthetic numbers?
Better aesthetics. For me, numbers are just... ugly.
ugly but practical, that's how I choose my cars, and my stats display
You "can" re-enable bars, it requires some scripts edits though
I would be grateful if I could get instructions from you on how to do necessary edits.
yeah sure for 20$ Here's how you do it: https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/blob/eb090d0d395bfbae6c6ba6c74dcc787fefb68141/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_addons/Momopate's Detailed Weapon Stats/gamedata/scripts/ish_item_stats.script#L16
Set that to track true in that file, that you can find in MO2 right panel, just use the search function at the bottom of the panel and look for ish_item_stats there.
Set track to true for everything you want to be displayed as tracks
@fossil robin there you go pal

Thanks!
I can convert once it's on my paypal account so it doesn't matter
to do anomalous study task i got to stand still at the exact point with the device right? Shit task i got its i nthe middle of heat anomaly, im dying
was hoping to do it from the edge in my garbo bag suit
@willow hawk so I did like you said. Stat bars really appeared, but they don't seem to show actual stats.
yep you can't, you need to go in there
Can someone upload boomsticks and sharpsticks in a torrent file ? Downloading through ModDB must be the most painful thing i've ever endured in my life
Yep it's annoying 😦
It's literally the last addon i've to download but i don't have a stable connection right now, so anytime i lose connection, the download (through the browser) just stops and i can't resume it so i have to restart the download all over again
!mags
In order to properly enable Mags Redux:
- Enable
Mags Redux (Disable G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload)(the mod under "Optional") - Disable
G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload on the same key(yes it's a mod, no it isn't a keybind) - Enable
Ammo Check(this is a mod as well) - While in game, check your keybinds for reload and unjam
Bonus) You can also enableMags Buyable at Tradersif 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.
No btw
Thanks 🙂
If i turn it on, can my gun no longer jam? whats the point of weapon dmg then?
it still jams
is it a different key to unjam? since i have to disable unjam reload same key addon
nevermind. Fully read the bot instructions now xD

Reading is a skill issue
anyone know the key for checking ammo? cant find it under keybinds
how do you get more belt slots? is that tied to your armor
if you have the mod toggled on i believe the default is Z
Yes, armor and upgrades
hmm Z was sew on patch
yeah i bind it on the same key as unjam weapon
for most guns it will do an anim then
like the remington 870 shotgun will actually pump it and look at the round inside
aaah cool. no animation for the colt 1911. But i will try with some other guns
Theres something weird going on. i have the remington 870 but it doesnt show the animation. only text like "half full"
^I have the same problem, no anims on any guns so far. Maybe i installed it wrong
Also is there any way to disable the artifact quality system? I just want to be able to sell the ones I find but they're usually too low quality to sell
Any guns is impossible
Some guns don't have animations or just some animations, but many have them
Greetings, how do I start an operation Afterglow after I completed the SIN questline? Does it randomly occur?
Actually, I think I didn't complete "Remnants of the SIN" yet
i can fill the magazines as the ammo is so far down on the inventory and i cant drag it up to the clip. any tips?
can't*
thanks grok! 😄
No workaround?
will GAMMA be compatible with YAWM?
Is there anyway to increase scrolling speed in inventory? its so slow
magnitude= (100/SYS_GetParam(2,"actor_condition","max_fire_wound_protection"))
to
magnitude= (SYS_GetParam(2,"actor_condition","max_fire_wound_protection"))
not sure about that one
it already is
where do i find unjam keybind? when i have disabled unjam by reload key addon
Nothing changed 😦
Really, no solution ?
Mag mod is not a good idea gameplay wise imho, at first i liked it too, full immersion you know, but unloading every gun u find fucking over with magazines, its just wastes too much time for a gimmick that's gets old after like 1 play session
is there a command that explains why Larkin is now green and listed as creator? 
and
not listed at all? wth happened? is gamma 1.0 out or smth?
Grok is listed as a creator XD.
not on my screen anymore at least xd. dont get me wrong, i love you too ❤️
Nah, its fair lol. He probably just offline.
So when you ADS, your sensitivity changes?
ah i thought it remains even when off, cause he was always there these months. not a dsc pro, whoopsie. nonetheless, cheers! 🍻
SMGs are kinda unbalanced and useless right? Pistols are strictly better or the same, while being lighter.
the only thing they have going for them is the mag size and rate of fire. but no one is; or should, be mag dumping in gamma right?
hmm might be more feedback, will cross post
Happens when I'm using scopes, like PU on STV. Works fine with ironsights and aimpoints ect
Anything with high magnification
Is there any way to increase or decrease the HUD FOV on specific guns? For instance the MP5 seems too close to me, I'd like to be able to see more of the gun but obviously changing HUD FOV changes all guns
So the short answer is no. The long answer is damage is more complicated than that, and SMGs hit slightly harder than pistols, and Fire rate is very important against certain enemies. i.e. Sin, fire rate trumps most other stats. Especially High fire rate low recoil weapons.

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.

You would have to manually reposition each gun
if anyone knows wt makes the crashes happen
How many active mods?
could you elaborate on "hit harder"? my mp7 does 24 damage, and has a amour pen of 40 while my usp also does 24, but has a pen of 37. is that all?
332 instead of 333 i think fk
A - More pen B - More velocity, which does affect damage. The damage number you see is not the damage number that actually gets applied once ballistics take place.

A Full Install does NOT remove saves, nor does it mean you are redownloading everything. A full install will simply check every mod in the pack, and any that need to be updated will be updated.
allrighty thanks!
huh, cool. has anyone made a 'calculated' ttk, stk, or just real damage for weapons then?
Since the damage model and characteristics aren’t finalized it would be a fool’s errand I think… so I’ll get right on it 
Any idea how I can do that?
haha, well is there a known formula if i go code diving at least then?
might be advisable to build a dynamic DB that pulls from the git variables for guns, amour ect
So the major issue with that, the damage of the weapon is calculated on environmental, condition, and enemy equipment, and enemy (this is a simple explanation) So theoretically you couldnt really do a "real" damage. That damage number is "real" Its just not accurate in every situation, and once all factors are taken into account. Best way to compare is to understand that if 2 guns do the same amount of damage with the same caliber and round type, the faster bullet will still hit harder.
#╙🖇mods-making-discussion search draggable hud editor.
Just imo, I kinda like how the damage/performance aspects have a more “analog” feel to them anyway, I don’t wanna see under the hood too much else I might start to see the matrix 
so it would be something to the effect of (D*V)/(C-AP) D - damage V - velocity C - caliber AP - amour pen
This is why I literally never give the actual numbers, variables, or formula XD
I sort of understand, might just want to remove those numbers if there inaccurate then
Not a bad effort, but honestly not even close. If you truly want to know go look in the files. I dont and wont explain it, especially in a channel where people look alot as people dont want to see it.
omg thats exactly what I need thank you
I think the numbers are good, but it could be made more clear that they are just one part of the formula and not the final product
Thats the thing, that number is an accurate number. Its just not the only variable. Its the way you have to look at it. When I buy a car for instance, the top speed is lets say 300kph. Which is fine, but that top speed isnt "accurate" in the way you are asking the damage to be. Its there as a tool for you to measure other cars against, but it is not the only thing you should check, nor is it necessarily the speed you will get the car to be able to reach full out.
I experience frequent annoying bugs
I crash whenever i load screen,i crash when i fast travel or transition
The fix for these is somehow to delete all the common squad stalkers,from which i have after effort acquired lots of quests.Deleting them will tank my reputation and i will have to go collecting quests all over again
The dynamid ui made my character stuck in the zoomed in position
I sometimes get massive frame drops and things go into collision rampages
Is this the experience for everyone?

What will sending my modpack change
I removed bhs,sleep mods etc just for more qoL,i didn't stray far from the modpack
Why does this modpack produce so many problems
And this.Why,why does this happen?And why is the solution such a massive inconvenience
First the modpack doesnt produce the problems. You literally disabled major core mods. So A - your no longer playing GAMMA, B - You need to use #🔨modded-gamma-support
He removed sleep deprivation. 
The crashes on fast travel happened before i changed anything
I didn't touch sleep deprivation 😦
And for that matter,it changing that option breaks the game, why not remove the option?

Doubtful. Considering no one else including me gets consistent crashes on fast travel on the vanilla modlist
It is basically a nuke button in disguise
Does "File Dependency" mean anything to you?
The modders can stitch that together
So let me get this straight, your request is to have provide you files, that we prevent you from touching at all?
No. 
How much is dependent on that single option?
??
The talk about the sleep deprivation thing is different
Honestly, #🔨modded-gamma-support ask them the correct way to do whatever you attempted. Maybe they will help you.
This is an unpaid modpack for a decade-year-old game. This statement and sentiment is really tone-deaf
It has nothing to with my complaints of crashes,i didn't touch that
I am not being aggressive towards the people who worked on this
Going through so many bugs though would infuriate everyone
You're right! Thankfully none of us have this problem, although it sucks that you do, truly.
Did i really do so many catastrophic changes?
I followed faq guidelines for any change i did
I will speak to the support modlist channel
I don't get any helo spawn with the option on is it disabled in GAMMA?
I asked.However,just to give you guys a sense of how comedic this is
I got stuck on the zoom of the dynamic UI mod
Are you in dx8?
How does this even happen?!
What else can cause this problem other than the single mod related to it?And How am i the only one who has experienced it
Yes
Did you turn the shaders off...
Ok. just checking. Also @fading rock Hey, can you confirm for me that on dx8, you dont have this issue, and dont have constant crashes?
Will check if switching to dx11 will solve it
But i got other bugs such as mutants being stuck in place etc and i am confused
i crashed like after half an hour of playing but thats cause i was constantly alttabbing ill be hopping on again shortly so ill update you later sometime
DX8 does crash on alt-tab.
game may crash when some mutant enter bleed state
Shit, any dx can crash on alt tab.
Yeah it has that problem.I don't alt tab though
Often
Enabling mutant bleeding will fix that or will cause it?
!disabled
Mods under the G.A.M.M.A Disabled category AND ALSO other disabled mods that aren't under this category, are disabled for a variety of reasons: compatibility, performance, bugs, busy hands, etc. DO NOT ENABLE THEM.
Also, 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.
Since you'll probably ask: "Why do we these mods if we can't activate them?"; Because G.A.M.M.A., as a whole, it's STILL IN BETA. NO, Grok can't simply remove them. Version 1.0 will have a clean mod list.
If you really want to use stuff that is disabled by default, forget about #old-bugs or #🔨base-gamma-support, don't use these two channels. Use #🔨modded-gamma-support instead.
i usually hafto cause i dont know how to add the game specifically to steam so i get the overlay and discord overlay can be extremely fucky if u use it to talk to people
Switching to dx11 did not fix the zoom problem btw
Why are you using 3 channels?
The question is appropriate to all 3


If you don't mind I'm still struggling a bit to compare guns.
These two have the same ammo
Are the damage stats of the displayed gun worse or better then its comparison?
DO NOT use multiple channels. As discussed your are NOT running gamma vanilla. literally regardless of your issue #🔨base-gamma-support and #old-bugs ARE NEVER relevant to you. Because you arent playing that.
I'm a Loner yet this Monolith dude just watched me murder his pals in Outskirts, standing there doing nothing and he also has tasks for me. What the fuck?
!gammavanilla
What Vanilla means for GAMMA:
Vanilla GAMMA is considered to be the GAMMA modpack as it comes. This means you have #📍577-mods-in-mo2 and have not enabled or disabled any of those, have not enabled any animations in MCM, and have not added any mods of your own.
Damn alright
Huh. What a bro
Is this a bug or what?
bad stealth setting can do that. what version you on?
Kind of fucked the whole vibe of taking out that squad

Hey that's rude i am just confused
I mean how can that even happen regardless of modlist
come on man, even if you think your in the right. you know acting like this isn't the way to get help right?
634
For some reason the modlist i run produces many more problems than you guys and it just made me confused and angry
Thats not a stealth setting. Do you have debug on?
hmm, well stealth has been 'fixed' but I got the same thing as you when it was bugged
Yeah but it didnt let you talk to the NPCs lol
I just have to accept that you do not have the problems that i do
He asked what version I was on, linked the version bot command so I copied the number from the folder as directed.
https://streamable.com/5fih4t
this was from the sam fisher patch, i can talk to renegade
And I'm not running debug
Oh. You know what. I forgot about that
around 45s
Do me a favor, Escape -> Mod Configuration Menu -> Stealth click default on those settings.
see if he tries to kill you
I put that patch out of my mind XD
it was the first patch I installed 
Oh god, you STARTED on that patch? LOL
I recently updated my game but am having an issue with the Dialog Dynamic UI mod, it’s present in my load order but has no affect in-game nor does the MCM show up, tested on new game too, any idea why?

Then Load back in, hit F7 and use the Get Info on him and send me that info please
@shadow sapphire any thoughts on this then?
It really does suck that you're having all these problems, I know it's gotta be frustrating. If you're up for it, it might be the best thing to do a complete delete/cleanup and start from scratch on a 100% vanilla install and then come back and we can work through problems step-by-step with you.
it even says (-1) (-x or +x)
haha I know that man. but apparently because of the ballistic calculations behind the scene 'real' dam = bullet speed + dam. one of these guns has one less dam, but better vel and the other the opposite
Well I loaded back in and he tried to shoot me so that's good; although I don't know if defaulting the stealth settings did the trick or just the simple restart
Maybe enable Enemy Health setting and do some testing?
Enemy Health? is that a hud mod?
try the top one, "can see me?"
Ill be honest I would literally have to do the math for differences that small. Most likely they will be practically the same tbh. In a case like that, its pick the one that fits your playstyle (which is always how I pick XD) Which one gets the attachments you want? Which one has the better upgrade tree? etc etc.
Ok, hes just a default mono (just wanted to make sure it wasnt a trader or something that can change things) Effectively 1 of 2 things happened. #1 The stealth settings were scuffed. If youve carried over MCM settings that could cause that. #2 Rarely Alife will disconnect from an AI and they will become dumber than a wall in which case the restart would resolve it.
Not a mod, setting
does godmode on affects sleep, hungry, thirst, etc?
UI setting I think @radiant stirrup
I cannot run the vanilla modlist,i had to follow the guide to remove mods that make the game prettier and then i made some changes,following faq procedure,that had more catastrophic results than i thought.
People had helped me a lot during installation so i am sorry if i showed a lack of gratitude
However i stand correct when i believe saying i have a lack of Adderall also does not help anyone in any way,i do not see how that comment serves a purpose
So only a big difference in stats is worth worrying about.
Thanks Larkin.

Yes
I think that comment was made in a more joking way than it was received, but I can understand your frustration. I wish I could be more helpful :/
who named these vars 
634
Heh. part of it
What exactly did you do to update. Because that is not the 634 modlist, thats not even the 630 modlist.
i noticed too late that stashes have a weight limit is there a way to disable that at least temporarily
Ok so the bars never go down..
I was using god mode to obtain unlimited weight to transfer stuff throught bases
Keep in mind, that is one of the formulas, for a very specific interaction XD
Enable unlimited weight in MO2
thanks
I followed the instructions given to me by Falco, run the installer and update
but that's the math you can expect when you ask those questions
You can also make or buy stash boxes from the vendor.
so, better roll what feels good
And then you have to click either Full GAMMA Install or Only install GAMMA addons depending on the update. have you clicked either of those since you installed?
I have received a lot of help, especially from Larkin and Skom.Thank you all and sorry if my the comments i made before were insulting,i didn't mean it
When I first installed the modpack yes, but not when updating
From what I can tell the other mods in the recent update seem to work fine though
It’s just Dynamic UI
Youre good man. I get it, its frustrating when it doesnt work. If I came across rude, I am also sorry, we just get the same questions, and whilst gamma plays like a fully from the ground up built game, its not. Its a game that Grok spent 8 months 8+ hours a day stacking 333 mods ontop of. ANY changes can break crap. Its just how modding works.
You dont have half the other mods XD

can you edit, and spoiler that please for people who dont want to see the matrix?
It is still a lot of work,damn.The modding community for Stalker is robust

sorry about that bud
No worries!
how do i get a basic toolkit?
you can find them in green stashes as rewards for quests
||Woah, air resistance is taking into account ? Is that what the muzzle velocity is for ?||
||I was told bullet speed speed factors in a lot into damage. if two guns of the same dam, and caliber but different velocity the one with the higher velocity will do more damage||
thank stom, he dove into the code for it!

right? not sure how people can live their lives missing on DPS from a very slightly better gun 
you never stop having fun if you enjoy the items you are using
I'm not that picky but when you play Ironman you better pick up any advantage you can.
Still using my preferred gun over something slightly better
5% of additional damage won't change much when you go full auto.
is there any way that mutants dont attack you 6 times in a second or do you just get fucked if your unlucky
whoah check out Mr money bags and all his loose ammo over here 
Someone just got killed by a pseudodog
SMG supremacy.
Don't let them get close 
yeah snork ai is hell. i feel you brother
it jumped at me, stood in place inside of me and i lost half my health before i could even move
and half was all i had left
jumps, and laps around you, hitting you twice in one jump
Weirdly enough I never had issue with snorks. Pseudodogs however... Once they get close to you, you're fucked since they will chain you to death
Same for fractures but they are rarer
asaik the answer is no, unfortunately.
a mod that removes air control for mutants would be amazing
i got jumped by 3 psydogs and got my shit rocked- but somehow lived and killed them
i was also then jumped by a chimera, a controller, 3 cats, and 5 dogs
love truck cemetary
Only air control they get is when they are lifted by a whirlwind
you should try a CS start in the grate swamps 
my condolences
Great swamp is easy since you can just... stand in the water and be invulnerable to melee
not even that- the worse i ever got was a pack of boars that ambushed me through a grassy area
i didnt get almost any mutant activity in my first few hours of great swamp
I thought Grok was going to make this cheese impossible by adding deadly water 
iirc that caused problems?
I didn't know about that cheese!
Would be nice, but currently being in water is harmless, the radiation you get is non existent
Also i thought the problem with water cheese was just in great swamp
Anywhere with water. Except Zaton because it's shallow
Huh
Dark Valley have a good patch near Bandit base where you can cheese the nocturnal mutants quests
what does it do? mutants can't path to you inside of it?
They can still leap at you, but p much
They can still pounce at you when you're near the shore
Not deadly.
The idea is to avoid it until you have enough rads res.
You shouldn’t be able to go into the water with the first armor and gas mask without getting rads
Giving same type of armour two times for exhange to your faction trader ends up with a %100 armour. Is this intended?
Hum what ?
The kind of stuff you people come up with though 
Asking for the same armor two time like why
😅
But ok, what’s the thing I need to fix up ?
No no its ok
well it is an exploit... 
Sry
im not the game police haha
Okay I'm losing my mind here, because my memory is shit
I have a gun, I need to repair just the barrel
Can I repair just the barrel without a tool kit and/or the repair kit?
Nope
Shit game 0/10
If you can clean kit

Cleaning kit on barrel above 60
Hm okay
The goal is getting a gun with a barrel above 60
Since it’s heavily rng, it’s usually not the gun you would have hoped for
Yeah you're right, it's always about the 60%
And that’s what make you use stuff you otherwise wouldn’t
But that’s also how you start loving your gun
Also, hoping for a good 60% gun when looting someone fills your gambling addiction nicely on top of helping with your hobo murder psychotic behaviour

I am curious whether the barrel plays a bigger part on the guns overall condition though. In the case of the <<20% cond pick up, where you must use a weaponkit to increase its condition, probably if you do it for a barrel you get a bit more condition of it than doing it for bolt?
I love the gun system so much 
where does the warlab entity hide at? i've looked everywhere but all rooms are jus tempty
any idea wt r best options for minimzed lagg on graphics n stuff any tricks?
!stutter
- Update G.A.M.M.A. to the latest version (open the installer with admin rights, click on
Update G.A.M.M.A. dataand thenFull G.A.M.M.A. installation) - Bring your modlist back to default (type
!defaultin #🤖bot-commands) - Enable the "
Turn this on if you stutter" mod in your MO2 (you can found the mod under theG.A.M.M.A. Fixesseparator) - If you have a NVIDIA GPU, you can enable
Triple Bufferingin NVIDIA control panel - Open Anomaly Launcher via MO2 and tick
Prefetch sounds - If you have a beefy GPU, use
Anomaly (DX11)
larkin i cant find the option turn this on fi you stutter in mo2
gamma fixes tab
As @buoyant stump literally should be at the bottom
Also turn off AVX
LOL good timing, was just typing
it wont change the saves or anything right?
Nope
awesome ty for the help! 🙂
Uhm, I somehow managed to mess up my body health ui.. it doesnt show the body picture in left down corner, but dots in left center. halp 😄
Press h?
H
it only hides it
You might have to press it more than once
then it shows it again 😄 wrongly
!crash
Can you send a screenshot?
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.
And what happens when you press h?
it hides/shows this only
you changed stuff in mcm
I am certain, that I ticked some mode, but i cant find it 😄
oooooh, mcm
mcm > BHS
yep, thank you kindly
keep crashing when i click to load a save :/

You need to turn mags back on
Oh wait my bad!!
!modlist
Send your mod list where it was asked if you're using the command in another channel: #╭📖faq message
I didn't realize you'd already sent a crash log earlier.. I thought that was a different person XD
You were using mags right?
yessir in game
!mags
In order to properly enable Mags Redux:
- Enable
Mags Redux (Disable G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload)(the mod under "Optional") - Disable
G.A.M.M.A. Unjam Reload on the same key(yes it's a mod, no it isn't a keybind) - Enable
Ammo Check(this is a mod as well) - While in game, check your keybinds for reload and unjam
Bonus) You can also enableMags Buyable at Tradersif 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.
Follow that, when you did the update/default it turned mags off
honestly if i was smart id play without em but fk it 😛
larking
new one now when i trried to save it crashed me
What item did you try to use right before that?
looted something i think
i can try older load
still crashes
larking not sure wt the bugg was but with avx it works
so ill keep it on
Interesting. Sounds good
Dont use multiple channels for the same issue please
@shadow sapphire apologies., I was unsure which channel was better suited.
dont delete any of the gamma folders or addons, most things are there because they are required
So I realized artifact efficiency is enabled in GAMMA, I tried looking in #│📚manual for how to charge them, but didn't get a clear answer. Do I just combine two of the same artifact/use the artifact melter to recharge an artifact?
if you want to enable or disable addons in the mo2 modlist, you can just tick or untick them in the list easily but if you ever need help or run into issues #🔨modded-gamma-support
you need the melter and 2 of the same artefacts to empower, it will combine them into one with higher condition
Oh okay thank you, so there's no way to stop an artifact from depleting itself while in my belt until I get a metler?
they dont, only perks do
Gotcha ty, guess it's time to ditch the spike then
cant load game after update
help D: i had to reinstall stuff because of a crash situation, and now after reinstalling everything and following the guide to a tee, i keep getting crashes when i start new game and verifying the files says shits fucked
no matter how many times i reinstall same issue
how did you update, full installation or only gamma addons ? did you have any extra addons or disabled any?
Question : Where can I find sniper scopes like March-F ?
dont verify files through the anomaly launcher, its only used for the vanilla anomaly. post the crash log
!crash

Full install and yeah I had stuff enabled

Thanks, about to be lvl4 with merc
you didnt update anomaly to 1.5.2 ?
!152
In order to update your Anomaly 1.5.1 to 1.5.2, follow this:
- Download the 1.5.2 update: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/downloads/stalker-anomaly-151-to-152
- Extract the update into the root of your Anomaly folder
- Overwrite everything when asked to do so
- Open the installer with admin rights
- Click on Update G.A.M.M.A. data -> Full G.A.M.M.A. Installation
you know what, im a retard...
I just tried to start a knew game too and it crashed me
i can just update it now and should work?
yes, follow the instructions above
.
Lol new*
what addons do you have currently ? how many active in mo2 and did you try with the default gamma modlist ?
welp, still have to probably reinstall everything from scratch as now it just wont start anymore
newest log and no i did not
if you didnt mess with anything and followed all the other instructions in #old-how-to, you can just follow the instructions for updating anomaly without having to reinstall anything
Delete this one is what I am asking
yes
delete it and place the new one you downloaded there
ok thanks! one more question, what mods adds new super versions of mutants, like the spikey ultra-bloodsuckers that take like 30 buckshot to the torso to kill? they feel incredibly unbalanced
the giant bloodsuckers? they have the same health as the normal ones
its just a re-skin
ehhh, then its the shotguns nerfed to bits
dont shoot with broken guns
i abused one of their AIs at one point and spent literal 30 buckshot from 10 feet away
!ammo
Explaining why X type of ammo isn't good anymore for stalkers and why you can't kill them: #╭📖faq message
and it was 100% condition
but that might be the same bug then that happened with repairing my SKS which still kept jamming after each and every shot
where it repairs the gun but doesnt really repair it
parts are separate from the gun
oh?
you have to repair the parts
that might be it then
its a new addition not familiar with, played expedition a ton back in the day
So click update data then full install?
#│📚manual make sure to read that, it has a lot of useful info (there is also a manual in the pda > guide in game)
yes
thank you my friend
gotcha, its just a very long list i bet :P
Now to wait another 2 hours not being able to see the screen.
Very interesting process
Fuckin google told me alt n window n arrow 😐
What’s the offline combat setting? Smart terrain only?
it determines if npcs will fight outside of the "online" radius around the player and where. makes the zone feel more alive without the player doing anything but can be intensive on old CPUs
smart terrains is the places where npcs can spawn, like bases and outposts
try defaulting the modlist and see if you still run into the same issue, if not then please use #🔨modded-gamma-support for help with your crash
!default
Modlist
To bring your mod list back to default, inverting any changes made by you:
- Open the installer with admin rights
- 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:
- Go in
GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches\appdata - Copy the
user.ltxfile you'll find in there (note that every change made by you in youruser.ltxwill be reverted to default) - Paste this file in
Anomaly\appdata
Oh I fixed it
I accidentally enabled a bounty hunter thing? That was the issue
I hope it works
Hey, don't know if its intended behavior, but Stalkers are carrying artifacts without LLMCS. i noticed this after i updated from the version before the stealth changes to current.
only if the artefact isnt irradiated
you can tweak the population settings in the mcm > zcp but the defaults are already good enough, i wouldnt recommend messing with them too much and please dont enable any zombies
Yeah, you won't feel it at the start... but the default population is insane later on
Alright.
Moved the population for stalkers up .10, but will all of these mutants still spawn?
Do rifles jam for npcs too
Probably not.
yes
Coolll
cat i require thy help
Would it be fine if I just enabled all of those other variants?
dont enable any extra zombies or mutants over whats already enabled by default
normal mutants and zombies will spawn, yes
you put the stalkers to 1.0 ?
ok
was at .4
which special mutants?
burers and large bloodsuckers should be enabled by default
wait
I thought some of these are special
Like the psy sucker and psy zombies
Mod added
this is the zombies section only
Yes
probably for the survival mode
Alright'
gamma is balanced for story mode only
what does efficiency do
Yeah, they were holding some irradiated ones, also can give them to companions, wich i think i couldn't do before
So, i just did the install gamma only addons thing on the installer, and now I only have 332 mods enabled in MO2 rather than the 333 stated
how many addons active in mo2?
any way to tone down the radiation effects? its a bit too much to barely tip your toe in a radiation field for half a second and lose half your health
especially when they seem to wander around a bit
and when a lot of map transitions force you to go thru them
Got a question. The pump station mission is strange in that you can apparently be assigned it again but as I've read on the discord if you picked up the sniper rifle from the dead CS up in the tower you can't find the commander to talk to when you get to the station. This definitely has been my experience. Wondering if anyone has had this same thing happen? Is there a fix?
edit: I'm referring to picking up the rifle during the first time through it btw
Since the companion weight balance patch, irradiated artifacts can now be passed to the companion. Probably unintended tho
did you start with the gas mask? try to get better radiation resistance and use radioprotectant and other meds to deal with rads, they are not that bad unless you go north without a good mask
332, ticked off both voiced actor mods, ticked on turn this on if you stutter
Maybe that makes other stalkers capable of carrying irradiated artifacts aswell?
is this something to be worried about
in Darkscape and the game's crashing whenever I die and have to reload a save
theyre actually just reskins, theres no stat difference afaik
If I place down a backpack as a stash is there a way I can pick it back up or no
i use all of them and i got no crashes so far
empty it and it will autonatically go back in your inventory
Shift + T
Take everything
at a certain point in the forest, my body health hud just reset and froze up so it looked like my health and limbs were at 0, and then when I tried using ibuprofen I got the busy hands glitch
it happened again but just with my legs
is this a busted save now
looks like the body health system might not be initializing correctly
I loaded the last one at that fire and one of my legs still didn't fill up
gonna try jumping back farther I suppose
that seems to have done it, guess I won't save immediately after psi-storms anymore
bad juju, clearly
Is there a difference of “rumors spreading about my missions” and reputation/goodwill. I’ve done Atleast 6 missions for clear sky’s and the number just never went up or anything so I was confused
And since I’m a mercenary is it even possible for me to get friendly with the loners or we just enemy’s the entire game. Didn’t really know how that system works
sorry, newbie question but.. how do i use the rf receiver?
just got some message text on my pda saying that as soon as i get an rf receiver, id get some help...
Once you get one, random messages will pop up
They will tell you to go to X location in a specific point of the map
Using the receiver, you'll pick up the signal
The more louder the signal, the more you're closer to the package
It's an item in plain sight, it's not inside stashes or anything like that
When you feel you're close to the package, hold F
You can use left and right click to change frequency
Shift and Ctrl change frequency in bigger intervals
this message had no location to it.. does it mean anything?
"Once you get one, random messages will pop up"
"They will tell you to go to X location in a specific point of the map"
Start by acquiring one

oh, ok, sorry
Don't worry
Again don't worry, all good
These are optional quests, they're infinite as well
Meaning that once you find a package, another "quest" will pop up with another location
And so on and so forth
You can just ignore them if you want
it's my first time going for them, so i guess i'll at least check it out
thanks for the info!
Since you already have one, wait a bit
Sooner or later you'll see the message with the location
You can go to said location whenever you want
It's not a timed thing
i just need to keep the receiver with me then?
Exacty
ok, cheeki breeki then
If you get tired of seeing the same message every time, IIRC, you can directly drop/stash the receiver somewhere and you won't see them again
whats the main difference between the grizzly and veles detectors? or basically which one is worth upgrading to
I’m at a stash box in cordon and it says “chest above bridge.” But I’m on top and see no chest
Depends on what you want.
They both can find all arti
The veles can upgrade to sav and is a bit easier to see where arti is
Grizzly works with nvgs
Screenshot the pda please
yes sir here it is
yo im loosing health even tho everything is fixed idk why?
my health is going down
thirst maybne
on the bridge behind the container
Ah. Start climbing the bridge scaffolding
ye im dumb mb
WOAH thats crazyyyyy. they got you checking everything
is fast travel disabled or was there something I need to do specific to get it to work in the UI?
Right click the green house, or one of the light blue icons.
ahh there it is. thanks
what is the highest supply level btw?
normal trader is the dude who sells ammo and stuff right?
Yeah
am I stuck with the loners as enemies or if I do missons with their Allie’s do I get better with them
You can improve it, one of the best ways is disguise and do missions
If a arti is too damage to sell how to I fix it
#│📚manual artifact melter
Dumb question but I’ve always wondered this and never tested: Is it possible to do missions/etc for a faction via disguise to the point where you’re no longer shoot on sight? Like freedom player becoming non-aggro with duty. With vanilla settings
Vanilla gamma? Yes. Vanilla anomaly... no.
Shit, that’s cool as heck. So your faction is still KOS but you personally get the ok? That’s wild, so many more options I didn’t know existed
Yeah. You have a relationship with the faction and so does your faction
wow that is cool
now i feel kinda bad for clearing out 3 bandit bases and killing 3 vice owners
is it possible to make friends with monolith 
technically, but not via disguise
you need to trick the rock huggers into giving you tasks
you can get them by talking to them when they're distracted or can't see you
unless there's some hidden perma-aggro code on monoliths, aside from the one that sees through disguises
Oh yeah mono I guess probs not
How can I get rid of this weird discolored circle which moves below and with my character model during the rain?
whats the key for checking ammo?
equip a RF Receiver once
also whats the key for taunting, playing a bandit and i need to be able to taunt enemies
oh, i thought the mod was included
It doesn't hold a gameplay role so I didn't include it
i saw a video where they could do it with a keybind but he was playing monolith
gotcha, thanks!
ill look into it, thanks
finally managed to craft myself a medium armor repair kit and fix up my stuff, woo!
not that I'm really complaining, but fixing up my stuff didn't seem to consume uses of the medium armor repair kit, it's still listed at 4 remaining uses
is it supposed to be permanent or is this a bug
replacing parts does not consume uses of the kit
oh sweet
you can keep a kit at 1 use and use it for replacing
The idea is that, repair tools are hard to get, but once you have one, you can repair anything
so you can try different armors, etc
yeah still trying to even find basic tools lol
noice, I did find a couple of ecologist suits I was sure I'd have to put off fixing
question is, if youre just unlucky enough, youll end up never just getting the tools you need?
me and lady fortune arent on good terms :P
You know about hip and spirit right?
i know about Hip, i play as a bandit however
but im talking about tools in general not just basic tools
stashes is your best bet
all i want is an SKS rifle for now but finding the repair kit is more likely to hit gold when taking a dump
yeah, ive been going thru those a lot
i crafted my historic one
complete tasks for Sultan and friends and they'll keep sending you stash locations
How many days in game, and how many stashes looted?
days in game as in real life or ingame?
In game
8 days, 16 stashes
You've only looted 2 stashes a day?
well, havent been getting that many
that are around areas i can access without radiation protection
Did you take the respirator on start?
yeah meds but meds are so temporary, i have plenty but its damn annoying keep spamming them
didnt notice respirator and dont want to restart the game
Mask is the highest priority
RIP. Ok well the answer is you will find tools, but at 2 stashes a day it will probably be awhile...
working on it, no repair kits though
i do keep finding drug making kits for some reason
like i said, me and lady fortune... not on good terms
lead underwear is more important
Chastity Belt
It's normal that in last dawn quest to seize the machine yards and kill every military, there is nobody but the quest don't update?
Don´t know whether this question was asked before, but is there any reason to "clean install" the whole game after few updates? Like bloated files/folders or old stuff which will not removed through update which may interfere with new data and files?
No. But you are running other mods. Ask in #🔨modded-gamma-support
If by clean you mean delete and re extract, honestly no.
which knife is a good early game upgrade from starting one and not have lesser durability
hunting knife broke down after i skinned like 2 dogs
The starter knife has a broken amount of durability, literally every knife has less.
except hunting knife 
ooh k
That reminded me about it though XD onto the trello it goes.
good bye infinity knife
btw anybody knows where this red "gas balloon" is somewhere in the world? For multi stove recipe, i never found it
you can use kerosene
or fuel
ah you mean crafting it?
it is a loose loot item
found a ton lying around
where, i never did
plenty of jerry cans, but never found red gas balloons
even if its in the CNPP sarcophagus im gonna go and get it and bring it back to my base and craft the multi stove, cuz i want it
Ay i have a quick question, what mod should i remove for unlimit fast travel? I need to move stuff and dont wanna spend a long time on it x.x
Limited fast travel
Thank you ❤️
I think I found one at the pump station in the swamps once
@gaunt vaultSame issue here
or it could have been the machine yard
hmm thxs time go in swamps
good luck
some traders even sell it iirc - could be at a bar/food trader or a mechanic
not sure, i just bought the stove from butcher
i rip them from the cold hands of other stalkers
like bro, every other monoliths has a stove
baloons are rather rare
yeah
and its about baloons
accidently pressed buttons and minimap appeared and i want it gone, no keybind for it in the settings
@slender peak should be /
does anyone know why ZCP was removed?
cannot find ARchianomaly (clear sky quest)
ahh
i had to read the quest text goddamnit
reeee where is the anomaly i run over "south west corner" of the map 100 times
Scanner?
yes
!scanner
Can't find the scanner for the Last Dawn quest?: #╭📖faq message
is there a way to fix your leg, even if temporarily with a splint, other than visiting a doctor?
and im not talking about the 1 or 2 minutes you get by using a morphine or something
oh thanks
have to waddle my way thru darkscape with 2 broken legs D:
Learn how to heal properly

!heal
A quick video about how to basic heal yourself: #╭📖faq message
thanks!
i thought it was just "use bandage and medkit" type a deal like with other modpacks in the past
Read the #│📚manual, it's also in your PDA
It's like that, basically
a whole lotta reading D:

It's either that or learning stuff by yourself
for sure, ive just been avoiding it, but ill read it for sure
Does the debug item editor work? Seems like if I make a change it doesn’t do anything, is it because nothing is in the actual anomaly gamedata file?
how can i safely turn off the new grass? i'd like to have the original one but i can't find it in the mod list
In bin folder, OAL files are those created by 10 - better sounds ?
what surfaces are suitable to place firewood?
why gamma has this addon, i thought nobody is playing with campfire saving
I do.
Yes, you need to enable debug mode first
!debug
How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message
If you're talking about "why the Zone is dead, I want the green grass back", check the command
Otherwise I don't know what you're talking about
!deadzone
How to bring back the default look for the Zone: #╭📖faq message
IIRC plain surfaces, I don't think you can create them inside places but I've never used them so I really don't know, I'm going off with memory
I don't use it neither but many people stick to the vanilla mod list and don't touch anything at all (literally)
Will there be any point when i can purchase weapons from traders on full quality, or even any quality, or i just have to find, and repair them myself?
No
Yes
you'll have to find and repair
Oh i see okay okay
Oh and anyone knows where do i have the best chance to get a Monolith AK12
Spent half of my whole economical founds to get an upgrade kit for a regular AK12
thats not compatible with the kit KEKW
increase mcm values
any flat perimeter of cursor should be suitable
(mcm can make suitable surface less flat)
I do have debug on it’s just that the outfit doesn’t save the changes
alright, will try a barbeque again. thanks.
I don't think there's the right topic for this question, so I might as well just ask here - I'm seriously considering getting the 6750xt GPU, at this moment nvidia has nothing to offer price-wise to compete with that card, but I'm wondering, has anyone here with an AMD gpu tried the dx->vulcan wrapper and had success with the vanilla gamma? I'm trying to grab as much info on this as I can, to avoid spending 450eur only to get myself into constant crashes
What

10 stashes later and still no basic tools, fucking sucks how one of the most important progression item is hard locked behind pure luck
welp, guess thats the end of this run
Yeah when I try to add an artefact slot or increase the stats it doesn’t save to the outfit. I went in to it again and it has the stats saved then when I hover over it, it reverts again
Someone didn't read the #│📚manual
but ive been told here to get it from a stash?
As well. You'd know there are other sources had you read the Manual™️.
"crafting is based on toolkits that you will find in marked stashes"
so how is that any different from that advice or are you just being snarky
yeah, thought so
spirit in yantar, aslan's patch lottery and hip's first quest for a TOZ-194, all of them give a basic toolkit
for spirit you need some nimrof vodka
as a bandit my only option is Aslan though?
yes, or finding more stash locations
right, and lottery is just another luck based thing?
yes
Yes, I am snarky. The information is on the server though using the CTRL+F function.
thanks though
yeah i know how the search works but it gives like 5000 results all pointing to the same advice i was already given
i might be stupid but im not retarded
I guess I'll have to make that flowchart anyway. 
please, dont stop on my account
Oh, I won't. It's the same reason why I made APART.
You don't have to.
Dunno what's going on here
deserved
childish much?
there should be, or a gas mask of some sort
you can craft a cloth mask
you didnt change anything with gamma ?
only a cloth mask, mut its like 3% protection
but*
nope, all default
even a slight tip of a toe into a radiation field has me burning thru cigs
and here im trying to quit...
Start as Freedom, get cash, join Bandits.
its an idea...
could start as merc as well but would be harder
It's a solution.
anyway you'd do quests for freedom regardless
yeah, already did a merc playthru in expedition and wanted something different entirely
is sidorovich the only one you can buy stashes from ?
Merc and Bandits are very similar.
i would do more stuff for freedom if it wasnt for all the radiation in most areas
around army warehouses
but my luck finally turned up and got the basic tools
took only, what, 30 stashes?
Pretty standard.
i mean... its kinda grindy for a singleplayer game, ive known mmos with far less grind for early progression
just sayin
You're entitled to your opinion.

that i am
i just dont find it fun being stuck with your starter gear for the first 20 or so hours playing a game
actually, no, i could repair a pistol
Just lower the difficulty until you've learned the mechanics.
so not entirely... starting gear...
No. About knowing the guaranteed drops.
is that really standard, i swear i got like 5 basic tools in my first 10 stashes 
and as a bandit you can only get it by faction swapping or pure luck?
Sshh..
Use a disguise.
disguise as a loner > talk to hip
my experience with disguises is they never worked with the game, so they fixed it for this then?
unless ofc you removed the difficulty altogether
It works, like I said—it's an issue of skill.
20 hours in a probably 200 hours playthrough is an ok % for starting gear, especially if you chose correct and just kill everything with it till mid game. but as Aldourien alrdy pointed out, that's knowing the mechanics & items.
repair them, using one with multiple bullet holes wont work
my experience with disguises is from expedition and there none of that stuff worked, tried every trick under the sun and only when i completely removed the difficulty they would stop shooting me on sight
wait till a legend rank on cordon dies to one dog and get best weapon in decent condition on day 1 sounds more like luck issue
This is not expedition.
i know...
thats why i said earlier my experience is only from expedition
and im taking in the feedback as we speak
sorry im pretty grumpy
Yes! We have noticed that! 

well you didnt help lol
Because you weren't humble about it.
barging in making me feel dumb while giving nothing but advice you already knew i knew
just to feel important?
No, to teach humility.
im not humble about it when im treated like some idiot
and ofc i will defend myself
lol how do you teach humility by being snarky
by your own words
Because when you realise nobody wants to help you, you begin to look internally.
you clearly know nothing about human psychology but oh well, im done
Sure, good luck then. 
snarky attitude like that will only make people hostile and thats exactly the opposite of "teaching humility"
but im off
Bye, have a great time. 
the radiation in arszi addon felt harsh but fair, idk why grok decided to change it back into something that kills u instantly
Mostly to prevent early North rush.
