[prime fulcrum]

oh yea i see thx

[cinder plover]

Dunno if this is the right chat but want to get stalker and gamma but dunno if ill be able to run it will a 1660TI and I5 9th gen be enough to run this?

[remote plank]

How do you get to it? There's no prone right?

[lyric shell]

Ok, in the light of that we are currently more or less DDOSING Mod DB, woudnt it be a good Idea to shift some of it to a P2P network, uncompackted, so we can do a dual DL of the files, That way we can change the missing mods under each other since everyoen looks like missing different things and with a propper set up P2P download patch the programm should be able to detect that there are already files of it's archive in the folders.

[prime fulcrum]

ofc you will

people run it fine with laptop versions of 1650s

[low shore]

you can prone, don't know the keybind by default, but you will have to turn on walk and then crouch

[lyric shell]

Ofcourse the size of 50gb dl and more will be scare some people away, but in my books it's still better that way then to make ModDB's server immolate themselves

[keen cedar]

No

[remote plank]

Thanks

[keen cedar]

Repacking files takes away acknowledgement from the authors of the mods

Grok has stated multiple times there will be no repack or torrent of Gamma

[lyric shell]

not repacking, I am talking about RAW

no compresion no arhcives

[nova stratus]

mmmmm yea i think moddb is spazzing

[prime fulcrum]

my GOD i can't keep up with the servers, i start with one and then after 2 minutes it dies and another one comes back alive

[nova stratus]

either that or something is wrong

[prime fulcrum]

? everything is normal

[low shore]

but that won't give credits to the authors of the mod. Also, we are not that big. Modb hosts mods for a lot of games

[prime fulcrum]

...what's wrong

[nova stratus]

uhhhhhhj

it's...

not

downloading...?

[rugged pawn]

uhh how many mods am i supposed to have total?

[nova stratus]

333

[keen cedar]

#📍577-mods-in-mo2

[prime fulcrum]

the "reverting back to default moddb mirror" means that it began downloading it

[oak vine]

I am trying to complete a quest where I have to put a scanner in an anomaly but no matter where I place it my quest wont complete. tried it on multiple points and the one marked on the map

[rugged pawn]

well i have 348 and counting?

[prime fulcrum]

the second "error" just shows that your last download was aborted and now it'll retry it

[keen cedar]

!default

[raw raft]

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

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

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

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

[keen cedar]

Do the thing under Modlist

Don't manually activate anything

[prime fulcrum]

aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I can't keep up with the serversssss

They die way too fast

My installer can't finish checking the installed mods in time

[sharp crow]

is it doing what it supose to do?

[rugged pawn]

k so 279 active and 351 in the list

[low shore]

yes

[prime fulcrum]

yes it is

[low shore]

by default is needs 333 active. Keep doing update/download gamma data -> full gamma instalation

[rugged pawn]

aight thank you

[lyric shell]

There must be something we can do to get the edge off of ModDB's servers, how it's currently going it cant stay

[keen cedar]

!p2p

[raw raft]

There will not be a collected add-ons torrent for GAMMA.
Read about the reason why the installer exists in #❗welcome.

[low shore]

If you've any idea that keeps the installer crediting the authors whitout having to deal with the modb servers you're free to suggest in the #old-feedback-suggestions xD

[keen cedar]

Yeah the solution is called "wait a week for the giant spike in traffic to calm down"

[prime fulcrum]

im trying something rn

[low shore]

not even a week, I'm sure tomorrow the people will get 333 mods in the first or second run

[prime fulcrum]

that may help with the missing mods issue'

[low shore]

ping me if you get to anything interesting as I'm off for now

[prime fulcrum]

well its not really a fix

and i can't get it to work because of the servers dying so quickly

[low shore]

if that workaround needs the servers to be "just fine" then I think it's not needed, as the servers not being "just fine" are the main problem

[glad yacht]

Ok, I'm on my third attempt to "Full Gamma Installation" button. The program has said it completed install, but checking active mods, it only says there are 241 active

[low shore]

anyways, Grok already posted in #📢announcements so people can get an idea and don't get frustrated

[low shore]

#📢announcements

[keen cedar]

Do it again basically

[rugged pawn]

on my 10th run at 297 so a bit closer

[prime fulcrum]

(now because of that half of the people will stop trying to download and another half will be able to do so)

[floral oxide]

is there anything i can do with parts and textiles that are on 0%

Are they even worth storing?

or should i just send them to the dumpster

[rugged pawn]

all errors for me rn

[nova stratus]

306 mods

5th try

[glad yacht]

I understand the servers are struggling, ive been attempting this over the past 2 days

[low shore]

A.K.A weekend

[nova stratus]

[glad yacht]

ok just wanted to make sure I didnt break anything

[ripe agate]

Is getting errors like this expected?

I saw other people asking too but I couldn't find the answer

[low shore]

what does the log in the installer says? @ripe agate

[prime fulcrum]

on my 3rd day rn

[glad yacht]

just curious, I saw some talk about updating gamma too, is that hard to do? like will I have to do this all over again when a new update releases

[ripe agate]

It seems to be progressing just fine, for each mod it goes through a few different moddb mirrors but it works at the end

Can't scroll cause it's downloading stuff but here's the logs at the bottom

[low shore]

well. ModB it's a big website for mods. We are a small part of its community

[low shore]

seems fine

[nova stratus]

would be nice if there's an option for already installed addons won't need to be reinstalled

[keen cedar]

Some of them can be used to boost repairs, you can ditch the ones that dont

[keen cedar]

It already does this

[ripe agate]

I don't think it downloads the ones that already are

[low shore]

full installation just check the mods missing

[nova stratus]

oh huh.

...huh?

[ripe agate]

moddb is just under a lot of pressure soo

[glad yacht]

I think it only avoids downloading a mod twice

[ripe agate]

even if you try a few times it seems to be quite likely to fail

[glad yacht]

its definitely reinstalling everything each attempt on my end

[nova stratus]

yeah

[ripe agate]

I assume that's what the errors in the console are (it first checks if the file exists locally, if it errors aka can't find it, it downloads it)

[floral oxide]

i didnt know that before thanks dad

[nova stratus]

i mean people with SSD's won't notice it i guess

sad HDD noises

[ripe agate]

Not really, the speed issue is due to the moddb servers

[glad yacht]

epic SSD noises

[floral oxide]

xD

[ripe agate]

SSDs don't make noises thankfully

[floral oxide]

but ssds dont make noises

[glad yacht]

yo will this shit run on a 3080

[ripe agate]

I got rid of my HDD cause that shit was so noisy

[low shore]

yes, cause the mods downloaded are stored in the Gamma/downloads folder, it does reinstall them, but doesn't download again, so it doesn't contribute to add more weight to the servers

[nova stratus]

no like i mean for these parts

[ripe agate]

I mean.. it should lol

[floral oxide]

Easily im rocking it on a 960

with a 4790

[ripe agate]

Ah the extracting, yea I guess so :P

Still though, probably more-so cpu limited

[glad yacht]

not if you increase the grass density all the way :)

[nova stratus]

sad i5 gen 7 noises

[glad yacht]

shit got down to 15 fps

[ripe agate]

Well.. #old-framerate-optimisation

[nova stratus]

ah, grass density, the bane of all GPUs

[glad yacht]

lol its a bit, grass density looked horrible at that level anyways

[ripe agate]

I'm currently waiting for the amd and intel launches so I can get a new pc

[nova stratus]

upping grass size with 20% density is always the best

[ripe agate]

Still not sure what I'll get, nvidia smoked some crack while pricing the 4080 which is what I was planning on getting so..

[rugged pawn]

i cant get it to got past 297 active so i guess im screwed til the server empties eventually

[ripe agate]

Is there maybe a way you can get the rest using MO2?

🤔

[low shore]

this has helped a lot to tweak the visuals #╭📖faq message

[nova stratus]

you know, considering i live in the other side of the world for most people here (i assume) i really should donwload it in the morning

[shell zenith]

so i basically finished installing full gamma and it seems everything is in order, but the desktop shortcut icon did not install is that normal?

[nova stratus]

didn't not?
so it did?

[low shore]

taking in to account that Modb serves mods for A LOT of games, GAMMA users are probably a drop in the rain

[nova stratus]

i mean yea i guess

[runic wharf]

oh man the bar for the full GAMMA installation really isnt moving an inch by the looks of it

[low shore]

it can happens and is cleared in the #old-how-to-install you can just create a shortcut from your modorganizer.exe

[shell zenith]

yet the installation clearly states that the shortcut was created xD

[nova stratus]

woaho the installer is doing some dumb shit

[past quiver]

holy shit downloading is going A LOT faster than yesterday due to the traffic

[nova stratus]

nvm it's gucci

[ripe agate]

It pops up another small window that is the progress bar on the mod it's downloading currently

[glad yacht]

its no surprise, its a terrible time to buy a new card from them, they fucked up big time banking on the now non-existant crypto miners

[shell zenith]

i see thx

[ripe agate]

@runic wharf it only does one at a time so the bar in the installer will only go up once each mod is complete

[ripe agate]

Yea, my 1660 ti isn't handling a lot of games well any more, gotta upgrade

[glad yacht]

id get a 30 series dude

[runic wharf]

70GB of mods i assume i only got 4 out from it looking at the bar

[glad yacht]

theyre great cards, pretty cheap for what you get, and theyre actually avalible now

[nova stratus]

dw it's moving

ever so slowly. (reminder that it took me 8 hours to "fully" finish the installation for the first time(""because it's actually not everything yet and i need to repeat the process a couple time after the 8 hours mark))

[ripe agate]

Massive difference in performance though :/

[glad yacht]

im yet to run into a game I couldnt run at max settings with at least 60+ fps

[ripe agate]

Also DLSS 3 is looking juicy

[glad yacht]

DLSS is ugly as fuck

I hate it

[ripe agate]

I'm getting a 2k 240hz monitor soo

[glad yacht]

NVidia is cheating using it for all performance stuffs

[nova stratus]

minecraft with shaders:

[ripe agate]

It's really good imo

Especially the newer versions

[glad yacht]

nah everything is blurry and ugly no thanks

[runic wharf]

same here im running 1660Ti

[ripe agate]

not necessarily, depends on the settings

[glad yacht]

along with a myriad of issues like ghosting etc

[nova stratus]

aayyyyy gpu brother

i mean i got the max-q one, which is for laptops but still.

[ripe agate]

it's honestly fine but it can't handle 2k 240 fps 😂

[glad yacht]

also that was 60+ fps on 4k

[runic wharf]

might get a 3070Ti after 40series come out into the market

[glad yacht]

so youd get better performance for 2k

[runic wharf]

but i dont think max performance is required in this game right, surely?

right...?

[glad yacht]

I was running the cod beta with all max settings on 4k at 85 fps, im not a frame enthusiast tho so thats plenty for me and my 120 hz QN90A

[ripe agate]

I have no clue how heavy it's going to be with all the mods, haven't installed it yet

[ripe agate]

85 fps is unplayable for me ngl

but I don't run max settings

Not for multiplayer FPS games atleast

[runic wharf]

never run max settings when u play fps games

[ripe agate]

my 1660 ti did about 120 fps at low 1080p

with FSR at max quality

[keen cedar]

expecting 85fps out of X-ray engine

Lower your expectations my friend

[glad yacht]

mmm id prefer max setting over more frames all the time unless im getting into the 70s for frames, im not a very competitive player though

[ripe agate]

Honestly i'll be happy with 60 on this game

[keen cedar]

It's a good day when I'm on 30-45 consistent

[ripe agate]

💀

is it that bad? lol

[keen cedar]

It's an old engine without many optimizations for things like multi threaded cpus

The game is literally from 2005

[shell zenith]

well shit

[glad yacht]

depends on your hardware, I was getting 90-100

[ripe agate]

settings/res/specs?

[cloud shuttle]

does anyone know how to exchange armours in spore shop?

[radiant cobalt]

I have 321 Mods and like 20 Mods have a red cross. Should I try reinstalling them first and then get to 333?

or just wait for 333 and then reinstall

[keen cedar]

Also the older your save is (ie more items for the game to track) the slower it runs

[keen cedar]

Just run full install, it skips things that are properly installed

[ripe agate]

how much is the full installation btw?

[keen cedar]

Size wise about 70gb iirc

[radiant cobalt]

got it but im stuck now. The servers are still fucked right?

[ripe agate]

including the anomaly stuff?

[glad yacht]

asus 3080
i7 9700k
32 gb ddr4 ram
other stuffs i dont know off the top of my head

[shell zenith]

only 186 mods active xD

[glad yacht]

3600 speed on the ram too

[keen cedar]

Very

[radiant cobalt]

:]

[keen cedar]

I believe so

[ripe agate]

Okay, not bad then

[ripe agate]

on 4k res?

[glad yacht]

yep

[ripe agate]

damn okay

i hope I can get atleast a stable 70~80 😂

[keen cedar]

Also this game is single player only

So dw about competing lmao

[glad yacht]

jesus this boomsticks mod has downloaded like 2% in the last hour

aight imma go play for honor while I wait

[ripe agate]

Oh no don't say that

[glad yacht]

:)

[ripe agate]

It just started downloading that mod

[radiant cobalt]

BaS took like 4h for me

[ripe agate]

[radiant cobalt]

ye xD

[glad yacht]

modding video games is so fucking cool right up until you get to this part

[floral oxide]

i dld it manually

it took like 40 mins

[glad yacht]

accept for minecraft, they got the fucking google servers running this shit

[floral oxide]

Do it manually

[north turret]

i think its just loading

[ripe agate]

[radiant cobalt]

yeah that is smart

[north turret]

it takes a while tho

[floral oxide]

it saves u a shit ton of time

[runic wharf]

alright how horrifying it is is to download BaS, cause i keep seeing ppl saying about it

[ripe agate]

how large is it?

[glad yacht]

I dont beliebe you tbh

[radiant cobalt]

from where do you get these files?

[ripe agate]

also did you download it through moddb?

[floral oxide]

the discord

[ripe agate]

BaS discord?

what discord 😂

[radiant cobalt]

but u cant download all mods manually right?

[floral oxide]

it used to be in

#old-how-to-install

[radiant cobalt]

cause im stuck with 321 for like 4h

[floral oxide]

but it was rewritten

[radiant cobalt]

after 30 Full Installations

[glad yacht]

If this was a while ago then thats why it was easy

[floral oxide]

is someone still having the links for the mirrors?

[ripe agate]

honestly the most annoying thing is

[weak leaf]

I need help, my game randomly crash

[ripe agate]

it's download like 0.5 MB/s

😩

[radiant cobalt]

#1025143518978650122

[glad yacht]

yea if only all this was done through curseforge or something

[radiant cobalt]

oh can ask there

[floral oxide]

for me it was 1-2 MB/s

[glad yacht]

how do you see download speeds?

[ripe agate]

task manager is showing me 4/5Mbps

[floral oxide]

sadly, moddb and nexus limit the dl speed

[ripe agate]

tbf valid, their servers are dying

[brazen sundial]

Can I safely disable GBOOBS?

[floral oxide]

task manager shows what is possible, not actual

[odd ivy]

is there a list of the 333 mods that should be enabled?

[ripe agate]

the performace -> ethernet speed is showing the current down/up speed

[keen cedar]

#❗welcome

[radiant cobalt]

how can I play Anomaly Vanilla? just diable all mods?

disable*

[keen cedar]

Your best bet is making a thread in #1025143518978650122 and posting your modlist though

[ripe agate]

without GAMMA?

[keen cedar]

Just run the exe right out of the Anomaly folder

[ripe agate]

Just redownload it

[radiant cobalt]

yes

[glad yacht]

I cry

[radiant cobalt]

I have a black screen ingame when I do that

idk why

[odd ivy]

cheers m8

[ripe agate]

just extract the Anomaly files elsewhere

[shell zenith]

so if i have only 186 mods out of the 333 active mods, i have to full game install again and again xD?

[glad yacht]

yes but itll skip download for already installed mods

[radiant cobalt]

good idea

[glad yacht]

gotta give it another go

[past merlin]

Does ironman work with GAMMA? I've died like 15 times with no consequences

[pale isle]

https://tenor.com/view/we-got-him-we-got-him-ladies-and-gentlemen-gif-13874411

https://tenor.com/view/wedding-crasher-hro-gif-25636997

[shell zenith]

well done, i'm at 186 xD

[radiant cobalt]

yeah but HOOOW

[shell zenith]

persistence i guess xD

[radiant cobalt]

@shell zenith did u use an VPN?

[pale isle]

well. it only took like 7-8 full installs and about 24 hours

i did the !scramble too

[floral oxide]

Ohhh yeeee

[pale isle]

!scramble

[north turret]

can i turn on more than 333 mods

[shell zenith]

what no, i'm still at 186 the king is @pale isle xD

[north turret]

some are unchecked

[floral oxide]

forgot about that doggo

[pale isle]

xd

[shell zenith]

i see so i'm half way there then xD

[pale isle]

update launcher too, and do download data again
then full installs till u get it

[ripe agate]

Btw what does this button do?

Pull the latest update from github?

[pale isle]

2 full installs had me still at 326. then after download gamma data it got me to 331. then another to 333

[shell zenith]

you mean the anomaly launcher?

[radiant cobalt]

what should I do when moddb thinks im a bot?

[pale isle]

the gamma launcher

the gamma installer*

[pale isle]

wait xd

[radiant cobalt]

noooo xD

[pale isle]

it gets all the data u need to download the mods

just do it once, on the latest installer

[sharp crow]

221... is this a problem? How to fix it?

[pale isle]

Did you got the latest installer from #📢announcements ?

Get that, then download gamma data again. And then just keep full installing. It will take a lot of time but

[sharp crow]

no i did evrything from how to install

[pale isle]

Today a new installer got updated

Get that

[sharp crow]

ok

[ripe agate]

Well he did join today

So I assume he did get the latest installer 😂

[pearl rock]

went back to cordon and some guy magdump his entire pistol upon seeing me, how come
got no disguises going on pretty sure

[runic wharf]

seeing the announcement, the traffic is at max capacity

skull moment

[brisk zinc]

Hover the mouse on it

There's a tooltip

[sharp crow]

so when i get installer what to do ? run it put it somewere?

[brisk zinc]

There's a tooltip for everything

[brisk zinc]

!fullinstall

[raw raft]

Grab the new installer in #📢announcements, you'll need to overwrite the installer that you can find in the ".Grok's Modpack Installer", inside your GAMMA folder.
Open it with admin rights > Click on Download GAMMA data > Click on Full GAMMA install again

You can also try with another possible fix, go in #🤖bot-commands, type and send !scrambled

A Full GAMMA Install does NOT remove saves, nor does it mean you are redownloading everything and it won't delete anything at all.
A full install will simply check every mod in the pack, and any that need to be updated will be updated.

[pale isle]

ye but it was posted in announcement not in how to install.
so many could miss it

[ripe agate]

Right.. then I don't have it either

I thought the #old-how-to-install would have the latest files

[pale isle]

[ripe agate]

Welp, do i just stop the installation and update it now or wait until it's done and then do it?

[pale isle]

just wait

patience is key

[ripe agate]

Cool, thank you

[pale isle]

if your installer doesnt have an option to check for moddb servers then its the old one

and download gamma data again after u get the new installer

[ripe agate]

It's version 3.8

[pale isle]

ye idk the version

[ripe agate]

[pale isle]

ye u got the right one

[ripe agate]

cool, ty

[pale isle]

i guess they did update in the how to install

[ripe agate]

I actually downloaded this one from the how to install https://mega.nz/file/VCM0mR7R#rdwi9E5nmtol2kgwG4qNSv57_ul0PtZNTWE9_YpLAzk

which is supposedly 3.7

unless they just forgot to rename the file 😂

[pale isle]

prob

[sharp crow]

so should i click allow power something and launch mo?

[eternal olive]

just finished installing everything, but I can't launch. For some reason I only have 180 mods active in mo2 even though I followed the how-to-install instructions

[ripe agate]

Keep doing it until you get to 333

[pale isle]

u are not alone xd

[prime lichen]

is there a way to remove the zooming-in effect when accessing the inventory? I tried searching for this on the discord but couldn't find anything

[ripe agate]

Due to moddb server load issues you need to retry quite a few times

[eternal olive]

so delete and restart? or just hit the full install button again?

[ripe agate]

Just click full install

It'll skip ones that you downloaded already

[eternal olive]

gotcha, ty

[quiet sluice]

is there a mod that fixes the ugly armors? and NPC textures?

[pale isle]

Not really. It will check them. But it gets faster the more mods u got

[ripe agate]

It doesn't try to redownload them

It only extracts/installs them to the game files

the download is the part that takes ages

[eternal olive]

I think my first go around skipped all the big ones, it finished in like 5 minutes and I was pleasantly surprised, but now its crawling lmao

[ripe agate]

Oh yea it's gonna take much longer than that

some people have been trying for 12h+ apparently 💀

[warped ginkgo]

you mean vanilla textures?

[quiet sluice]

the ones in gamma that are pixaleted compared to expedition

[pale isle]

Fr 💀

[quiet sluice]

something like that

[warped ginkgo]

expedition uses some mix of "hd" models + gunslinger npc rework

imo mots faction look really off

[oak vine]

this doesnt go away

[warped ginkgo]

for some reason author turned clear sky into a full brown camo

[eternal olive]

I'm guessing all the traffic is due to that one video about it?

[quiet sluice]

the hd factions looks really good though

[fair forum]

for some reason if i equip a detector and a secondary (or a knife) its zoomed in and if i unequip my secondary (or knife) it will zoom out, it wasnt like this before and it now happens. The pda is also a lot more zoomed in my screen when i equip it and i dont really like it

[warped ginkgo]

stalker faction only has like 3/4 meshes for all types of stalkers

[pale isle]

Cause u didn't find another way in

[oak vine]

but why

[ripe agate]

which vid?

drewski?

[pale isle]

Try loading save?

[eternal olive]

ya I think that's who it was, don't remember the name of the person

[ripe agate]

I don't think so tbh

He's got a pretty large following but still

[pale isle]

Well, i knew about gamma. But he convinced me to install it

[storm spindle]

I'm having and issue trying to launch the mod I keep getting this error [2022-10-02 16:00:48.337 I] using game plugin 'STALKER Anomaly' ('stalkeranomaly', variant (none), steam id '') at C:/Users/USERNAME/Desktop/anomaly

[oak vine]

no doesnt help

[tidal cloak]

anyone else notice the what looks like an anomaly splash or water splash at your feet when climbing down from ladders?

[quiet sluice]

yep

[warped ginkgo]

it's the legs in first person

[graceful plinth]

Okay so I’m dumb, why do none of the traders have any weapons to buy?

[warped ginkgo]

they are a 'npc' i think? or some visual that appears and are sticked to the player camera

or creature idk

[tidal cloak]

weird. good to know it's not just me then

[ripe agate]

That's not an error lol

[warped ginkgo]

they disappear while climbing, and spawn again when you are walking already

thats the effect you see 'splash'

it's the legs spawning/despawning

[ripe agate]

Also use the instructions in #old-how-to-install

[ripe agate]

#╭📖faq

and #│📚manual

[oak vine]

my screen still flashes "find another way in" how do I get rid of that?

[ripe agate]

Did you try reloading the save/restarting the game?

[tidal cloak]

but why would this cause a graphical effect?

[oak vine]

did not help

[runic wharf]

oh boy, here we go again

[ancient fossil]

Hi, If I only have 302 mods active how do I get 333?

[oak vine]

Ill try a full reset

[keen cedar]

Don't install it in desktop

!move

[raw raft]

KEEP IN MIND AND REMEMBER THAT USING THE FOLLOWING FOLDERS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR ANOMALY AND GAMMA, DON'T USE THEM.
Desktop, Downloads, Documents One Drive, Documents, Program Files/Program Files x86
DON'T. USE. THEM. DON'T.

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

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

Moving Anomaly:

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

[keen cedar]

Run full install, don't delete anything

[runic wharf]

is it normal if i get ERROR messages in the black window tab for the 1st installation?

[fresh grotto]

quick question how many files should be in the Download folder if everything is downloaded?

[shell zenith]

Now the real question tho @pale isle, did u manage to actually start the game and play it ?

[north turret]

guys is it possible to disable the mod where traders dont sell weapons?

[stable stag]

324 for me, but I have an old installation so maybe some of those mods are not downloaded anymore

[ocean geode]

Just downloaded it and it only says 180 active, I thought there were 333?

[fresh grotto]

ok 208 so far

[north turret]

i have no luck with finding a decent weapon on dead enemies, so i would like to buy one from the traders since i have some good money now

can i somehow make this work?

[keen cedar]

Can't buy weapons in GAMMA, you must find and fix them from dead stalkers or stashes

[north turret]

i know that homie, thats why im asking

[shell zenith]

Keep running full install till you get 333, that's what we are all doing xD

[north turret]

can i disable that specific mod

somehow

[ancient fossil]

Can you buy weapons in annomaly?

[north turret]

not by default

i want to disable taht mod

if i can

[stable stag]

!vanilla

[raw raft]

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

[ancient fossil]

Ahh okay

[keen cedar]

If you have less that 333 active mods, run full install again. Moddb servers are breaking right now and you will likely have to try multiple times.

[north turret]

thank you brother

❤️

[eternal olive]

I've never played normal anomaly, is buying and selling weapons normally allowed and gamma disables it?

[fresh grotto]

in Vanilla you can sell/ buy guns etc

[stable stag]

Alllll in the interest of progression. If you can stick with the Gamma system its way more rewarding

[ancient fossil]

is anomaly made by the same folks who made gamma?

[keen cedar]

No

[stable stag]

No, it's a completely different outfit

[keen cedar]

Regular anomaly allows gun trade but this makes getting rich with good weapons very very easy

Gamma way is harder and rewards persistent effort

[ancient fossil]

❤️

[split nova]

Does how much power you have in the artifact smelter determine how big the repair boost will be?

[keen cedar]

Same reason why stashes are empty by default in Gamma

[eternal olive]

gotcha, that makes a lot of sense

[sudden meadow]

The installation guide says to not use campfire saves. How do I use the right saves?

[stable stag]

Nope

[keen cedar]

Already done for you by default. If you want to quicksave anywhere, turn off "campfire save" in YACS in the mod configuration menu

[split nova]

Is there anyway to turn off artifact condition cause I don't feel like finding 5 of the same artifact just to have 1 proper artifact?

[ripe agate]

When you say 'done for you by default' when does it auto save?

[runic wharf]

is it normal if im getting these error messages during the process of installation

[ripe agate]

Yea I think so

[keen cedar]

It doesn't auto save

[ripe agate]

Right okay, ty

[keen cedar]

Hammer that F5 quicksave

[ripe agate]

Haha okay ty

[keen cedar]

Yes. Moddb server issue

[eternal olive]

so it's just manual f5 saves only?

[keen cedar]

Manual and quicksave only yes

[runic wharf]

alright then, thanks @ripe agate @keen cedar

[radiant cobalt]

same here its full of error right?

[keen cedar]

With YACS (Yet Another Campfire Save) on you can only save next to campfires or in friendly/neutral bases

[runic wharf]

im guessing moddb server is running full traffic so we cant really get every mods installed in a few tries

[ocean tusk]

in game louncher shadow map which one to pick and what difference?

[radiant cobalt]

how many installs can I do so that im not flagged from moddb?

[runic wharf]

not more than 2 times in 1 hour

[radiant cobalt]

so 2 times an hour

[runic wharf]

ye

[pale isle]

Ye
Everything seems to work so far

[radiant cobalt]

Contrags xD

[shell zenith]

Well that's good to hear

[radiant cobalt]

Congrats*

[pale isle]

Thx xd

[gray anchor]

if i tried reinstalling it more than 2 times do i just to wait an hour?

[shell zenith]

No worries it will take you 2 hours for even one download xD

[proper kiln]

where should the unjam keybind be located? i can't find it in the mcm nor in the controlls

[ripe agate]

Did you manage to get all 333 mods? 🤣

[stable stag]

Shadow resolution. Keep it at 2048

[eternal olive]

people saying this worries me, I just finished my second one all in 30 minutes, I must be missing some massive ones

[runic wharf]

#old-how-to-install its all written there, just to be safe I'd say wait it out

[eternal olive]

LOL I went from 180-185, rip me

[runic wharf]

my first installation i got 216, so it varies from user to user

[pale isle]

Yep

[runic wharf]

my guess is the internet speed and the server issue

[sharp crow]

so if not all mods dowloaded just spam install?

[keen cedar]

Basically just server issue

[eternal olive]

only 2 times an hour or you could get locked

[keen cedar]

Wait between full install attempts so you don't get flagged as a bot

[gray anchor]

my mistake i meant the full gamma install. I went from 157 to 217 but now it wont download anymore so i'm assuming i just gotta wait before retrying

[sharp crow]

dose the time spend instaling count?

[runic wharf]

Ye the full gamma installation, you have to wait an hour after 2 tries

[eternal olive]

not sure, I'm just gonna wait an extra 30 minutes before doing my third

in the gamma installer it says if you get flagged its a 2 hour wait, so I would be careful

[ripe agate]

how long did that take?

[sharp crow]

what happens if you get locked?

[runic wharf]

If you hover over the full gamma install, you'll see the text saying twice in an hour

[eternal olive]

about 20 minutes

[ripe agate]

2hr ban basically

[ripe agate]

for only 5? 😂

[gray anchor]

gotcha didnt know that, since ive tried more than 2 in last hour do i just wait an hour or do i have to do something else

[ripe agate]

hey atleast they weren't tiny ones lol

[eternal olive]

yep, this is gonna be a long ride

[radiant cobalt]

thanks god I have 321 xD

[eternal olive]

in the installer itself it says you get a 2 hour lockout if you get flagged as a bot

[olive haven]

anyone has issue with the warlab entity? I cant find it anywhere

[runic wharf]

well my installation went from 216 to 246, thats an improvement i guess

[eternal olive]

I have really bad internet so it could be a cause of my low number

[radiant cobalt]

u can check if u get flagged out by joining the moddb website

if u can its all g

[deft fern]

So, i ran the installer multiple times now but i still have only 326 active mods. Do you have any ideas why?

[keen cedar]

Moddb servers are fucked that's why

[eternal olive]

keep trying

[ripe agate]

keep trying

yea

[runic wharf]

the servers are full right now

so you're missing a few mods here and there is a normal occurrence

[deft fern]

alright, then i will try it at tomorrows dawn, then the rest of the eu folks should be still asleep ^^

[keen cedar]

Lol good luck, that's when the Americans wake up

[deft fern]

na, at that time they should also be still asleep

[eternal olive]

aren't eu and na moddb servers seperate

[ripe agate]

Yea but there's more EU servers than NA

[ancient fossil]

im on 303 now

[ripe agate]

Also you can use NA servers

[runic wharf]

its 9am to 12pm in NA right now i think

[ancient fossil]

improvement

[ripe agate]

Even if you are in the EU

[eternal olive]

wait so I should try using EU servers?

[radiant cobalt]

which servers should I use?

[keen cedar]

Also you assume the NA ppl aren't desperately trying EU mirrors lol

They're ALL full

[radiant cobalt]

moddb should react

[runic wharf]

yea i wouldnt count on waiting it

[ruby wigeon]

finally got the install for 1.5.1, it's a 3 hour download LMAO

[ripe agate]

You know that there's a torrent version right

[runic wharf]

just pick whichever server is closest and install it from there

[ripe agate]

in the description

[runic wharf]

they dont know

[keen cedar]

why should they? It's only been four days tbh and buying a new server is expensive, esp if this spike will die down in a week or so

[ripe agate]

[radiant cobalt]

I know its delusional but let people hope

[ripe agate]

Well, using a CDN wouldn't be that expensive

[runic wharf]

renting a server cost like $200 at minimum, so yea nah

[keen cedar]

Point is wait a few days

[runic wharf]

yep

or, with sheer will and patience, keep trying until u get the full 333

[calm cypress]

Is there a way for me to spawn in gear/items? I used Cheat Engine to give myself a bunch of money. I have neverr played STALKER and I'm trying to figure this game out in super easy mode

[burnt pine]

hey, does anyone have a link to the RemadeAnimations on moddb? it's the only mod I'm missing and it'd just be easier to manually download it.

[runic wharf]

holy EU

at 264 cap

[livid stream]

does the mag redux make it where u have mags that u have to load and that stuff

[shell zenith]

cool me on 227 xD

[shell zenith]

264.33% now i understand xDDD

[burnt pine]

And when I search for it, it just can't seem to find it.

[ruby wigeon]

thank you, i did not see that

[keen cedar]

Yes, but there are some extra steps to enable it properly

!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.

[radiant cobalt]

how can I fix being flagged on moddb? I waited the time that was shown on the website

[livid stream]

thank u so much

[north turret]

is this normal?

[ripe agate]

wait 2 hours

[ripe agate]

Yes

[radiant cobalt]

k

[north turret]

i tried 3 times im still in 240 mods

[ruby wigeon]

is using the bittorrent dl risky?

i just got a weird popup

[runic wharf]

you mean qbittorrent?

[ripe agate]

what popup

[ruby wigeon]

i think it was just something that comes with bittorrent web

[runic wharf]

there shouldnt be any popups

[ruby wigeon]

it just looked very weird

[runic wharf]

what popup did u have

[north turret]

is there anywhere else to download mods?

like from gdrive or torrent

[ruby wigeon]

these two things installed to my pc

[ripe agate]

right

[ruby wigeon]

but idk what they are

[ripe agate]

you're one of those who just clicks accept on everything when you install stuff

🥴

[ruby wigeon]

well no lmao

[ripe agate]

and no don't use bittorent

[ruby wigeon]

what should i use instead?

[ripe agate]

qbittorent transmission and deluge are all good

i personally prefer qbittorent

(which is also open source)

[ruby wigeon]

i feel like such an idiot but do you know what these are?

[ripe agate]

just remove them

adware and garbage that is bundled with installers

[ruby wigeon]

i did, uninstalled them immediately

[ripe agate]

be careful what you click

[ruby wigeon]

that's what i figured

[ripe agate]

webadvisor is just annoying garbage idk what spyhunter is

[steady sundial]

adware

[shell zenith]

wait isn't there only utorrent as a safe option ?

[runic wharf]

qbittorrent is the best one

[steady sundial]

fucks up chrome

[runic wharf]

utorrent is the worst

utorrent also has adware

[ripe agate]

yea μtorrent is by far the worst

😂

[steady sundial]

utorrent snitches your downloads to govts etc

[ruby wigeon]

so qbittorrent is the way to go?

[runic wharf]

yes

[shell zenith]

oh my god for how many years have i been using it and haven't known

[steady sundial]

thats what i use too

[ruby wigeon]

cool, thanks for helping my dumb ass

[runic wharf]

no problem, we've all been there

[steady sundial]

yep,pass the knowledge to the next guy u see and stuff

[sharp crow]

only 93 mods to go 😄

[ripe agate]

just finished BaS after 2 hours lol

[runic wharf]

congratz mate

[ripe agate]

hey, better than 4

💀

[runic wharf]

i still dont have it

[ripe agate]

hahahaha

[violet walrus]

if i want to use the trader overhaul should i disable the gamma economy mod? if theres any other advice id love to hear it because i can't get the mod to work

[ripe agate]

oh no

[novel ivy]

hey I'm new to both Stalker and GAMMA, where do I sell the guns I loot from NPCs?

[steady sundial]

so i got a qustion so i need 70gb free so does this include the install size of anomoly or is just the mods?

[runic wharf]

just the mods

[ripe agate]

!to

[raw raft]

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

[novel ivy]

mods

[warped ginkgo]

you cant with default gamma settings

[keen cedar]

No gun selling or buying by default in gamma

[novel ivy]

oh ok thanks

[ripe agate]

for guns just focus on getting some guns you can actually use :P

[warped ginkgo]

the reason to disable buy/sell weapon/outfit is for progression with toolkit and crafting

[ripe agate]

you can read up on #╭📖faq and #│📚manual for some tips etc

[warped ginkgo]

i mean, play the way you actually have fun, but i guess enabling those will make crafting/repair useless

[runic wharf]

yooo lesgo i got the BaS

now to wait for 2 hours 🛏️

[steady sundial]

gonna be honest i remember installing those mods crafting/repair was so extremely tedious

[ripe agate]

Ah, are you downloading them through MO2?

I'm using the installer

[steady sundial]

definetly recommend if you like to suffer

[runic wharf]

yea im using the MO2, seems easier to organize this way

[ripe agate]

Yea fair enough

[runic wharf]

not guarantee it will run though

[ripe agate]

I just followed #old-how-to-install down to the t cause I know from experience with KSP and factorio that modding is finicky as hell 🤣

[eternal olive]

another 30 minutes for another 5 mods, I think it's time to wait a week

[runic wharf]

well mods are finicky from the start

[keen cedar]

Noooo. The installer also selects the right options for installation

[steady sundial]

with mo2 even you fuck the mods,vannilla anomaly will still work

[keen cedar]

Run it through the installer only

[amber shard]

so...how do I install this shit? is there like a website that explains the steps?

[novel ivy]

I'm generally new to playing stalker so I didnt know much about how the game works and I'm running a test run rn, I'll stick with vanilla gamma until I learn everything about the game, thanks for the info tho!

[keen cedar]

#old-how-to-install

[runic wharf]

i am running it though the gamma installer, im using MO2 to organize it only

[radiant zealot]

how any mods should be active?

[runic wharf]

333

[radiant zealot]

i only have 168, rip

[ruby wigeon]

does qbittorrent have adware so i don't have a heart attack again?

[steady sundial]

nope,nothing

[ripe agate]

idk about the installer

[runic wharf]

it doesnt have any, its safe

[ripe agate]

I doubt it

[ruby wigeon]

thank god

ty

[runic wharf]

i've been using it for years and nothing suspicious came up

just note that, never ever use utorrent

[quaint iris]

Does anyone know what setting/mod makes the ground almost shine? I see it now that I turned grass down a lot

[ripe agate]

God I really hate the always on top behaviour of the installer

Why is that a thing

[runic wharf]

you can shift that onto a new desktop

[ripe agate]

wdym

[runic wharf]

windows + tab > click new desktop on the top left, and place the installer there

[ripe agate]

oh yea i know

but i want to be able to see the progress on my 2nd monitor

why does it have to be on top 😂

[runic wharf]

its annoying that its always on top but yea

it is what it is

[broken ember]

Can I only get toolkits from staches?

[crude cave]

hey, i keep taking random damage and i dont know which effect it is
what damage effect is the red screen that blurs your vision

[mighty hill]

I'm guessing that the 10ish mods under "gamma disabled" are disabled on purpose?

[steady sundial]

let me guess the secret tunnel in cordon?

[crude cave]

ive fixed my bleeding, radiation, hunger, water, sleep, etc. but my screen flashes red and my health is drained
i drank vodka, smoked, and used different meds

[crude cave]

no

i was just standing in front of sodorovich

after doing an escort to Truck Cemetery

[mighty hill]

I believe anomaly has disabled the static tool kit spawns from the regular games, so stashes are the only source. Specifically look for green ones on your pda which are guaranteed to have one. You'll get a green every like 10 stashes, and you can discover stashes faster by doing tasks

[steady sundial]

mf your character taking emotional damage from sidorovichs death stare

[crude cave]

i guess so, but i almost died so wahtever it was doesnt stop after ALL THAT idk then

[north turret]

Hi people, so if I (finally ) have all the 333 mods, should I check them somehow for integrity? Like, are they 333 working mods and not just corrupted files and empty folders?

[crude cave]

unless you get crashes, they should auto sort with the gamma modlist

if you have a bunch of red X error in MO2 then uhhh

!scrambled

[raw raft]

Close MO2. Go to GAMMA/.Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_data/modlist.txt copy it to GAMMA/profiles/G.A.M.M.A. and paste it there, replace the existing file. Now launch GAMMA/modorganizer.exe

[north turret]

Only one, in a disabled mod

[crude cave]

yea that one is normal

it should be BaS and say (keep disabled)

[broken ember]

Guess I just have bad luck then since I haven't found a single classic weapons toolkit

[north turret]

Yes, it is!

[crude cave]

i had to adjust the setting for spawnrate in the mod menu
its like a 10% chance in vanilla GAMMA settings

so one out of ten stashes will have one

[north turret]

there is like a playlist that just play constintly while playing how do i turn it off i like to run around the zone without music

[crude cave]

check PDA radio, and music settings in the Esc menu

[north turret]

i have

[crude cave]

the radio and enviroment music are seperate settings

[north turret]

it some weird ambiance

[crude cave]

i think the mod menu has the environmental sound setting, the Esc menu has the music, and the PDA plays music independently of both

[pine wharf]

could someone help me with my water? I cant seem to find a setting that fixes these weird reflections on it. I'm sorry if wrong section for this. Thank you guys.

[crude cave]

the reflections look badly rendered

might be a graphics option in the settings menue

menu*

try every setting if your water looks weird on all of them

[pine wharf]

suggestions on which setting to tweak? Ive tried a lot of them. AMD GPU.

[lyric meadow]

hello guys, dont know if this is the proper channel, but im having some trouble opening the game, there is a tutorial somewhere that help fix this kind of issue?

[crude cave]

uhhhhh
i use Nvidia but lemme check while my stuff gets fixed

[crude cave]

what exactly is the issue

[placid compass]

Anyone have the modlist? I need to know which mods to enable since most won't check the box.

[crude cave]

specificly*

[lyric meadow]

i was actually able to open it, but i was having a black screen, could see a thing, but the game was roling in the background

[pine wharf]

thank you

[crude cave]

should have 333 enabled, they will enable on their own

[lyric meadow]

i deleted the shader cache folder and then it didnt opened anymore

[lyric meadow]

it just doesnt start anymore

[crude cave]

uhhhhh waht
thats a pickle

[lyric meadow]

when i press run

[crude cave]

idk man, thats out of my league

[dense ridge]

Yes hello

[placid compass]

I have most if not all the mods on MO2 but it won't enable quite a few

[crude cave]

@pine wharf

[pine wharf]

soft water doesn't change anything 😦

[crude cave]

i use screen space reflections, and for AMD you should use HDAO

SSAO try HDAO

[pine wharf]

kk

[crude cave]

the water might be loading the sun reflection wrong

[lyric meadow]

know someone that can help me with that?

[crude cave]

id ask #1025143518978650122 or someone who knows their stuff in #old-bugs

[calm cypress]

How do I regain permanent health?

[crude cave]

you need all (or 332 might work) of the mods
the modlist is here

[raw raft]

Close MO2. Go to GAMMA/.Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_data/modlist.txt copy it to GAMMA/profiles/G.A.M.M.A. and paste it there, replace the existing file. Now launch GAMMA/modorganizer.exe

[placid compass]

TY, I'll do that after this next download cycle.

[dense ridge]

So this whole BAS thing. I have GAMMA installed previously and it runs fine as of now. When I go to update do I need to download a new installer? Am I understanding that correctly?

[crude cave]

👍
also the mods might not enable if the mods they rely on arent downloaded
so after a few cycles it might randomly enable them all at once

[placid compass]

This is like cycle 15+. It's crazy

[pine wharf]

@crude cave The HBAO fixed it! Thank you so much!!!!!!

[crude cave]

ikr
i got it done after two days of cycling and updates before i realized the my mods just werent being seen as mods
i got my game to work with 332 mods, its some frankenstein shit

[crude cave]

👍
HDAO is used for AMD and HBAO is for Nvidia
but im guessing a driver update might have made them interchangeable

[covert blade]

this is where i can ask for help correct?

[crude cave]

questions about the game

[floral oracle]

brothers! is there any way to change the keybinds found in keybinds-in-gamma? i would like to rebind M

[crude cave]

#old-bugs is for crashes and things breaking

[mellow urchin]

Anywhere to download the game faster, looks like my downloads are pegged from the site side?

[covert blade]

I just had a question about the download

[crude cave]

if theres a keybind for it in game i think its bind-able

[crude cave]

wdym?

and most likely not

[floral oracle]

Nyet, unless you still need anomaly, then you can torrent that

[crude cave]

!moddb

[raw raft]

ModDB is currently struggling to keep up with download demand. If your installer is running but showing errors, wait for it to finish. Unfortunately we have no ability to address the issue. Errors in the installer for now are normal when downloading, slow download speeds should be expected.

G.A.M.M.A., IN GENERAL, can be downloaded in 30 minutes, maybe 1 hour.
This, of course, is when we don't have a big YT channel with 1.50mln subscribers that makes a video on the mod pack AND an update for a mod that is comparable to the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Since this stuff happened literally in the span of two days, you'll have to be patient and wait. Or just don't download G.A.M.M.A. for now and try again in few days.

This is the official torrent for Anomaly 1.5.1: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:c307c208636d1fd98ca4fe70ca0c692035659855&dn=Anomaly-1.5.1.7z&tr=udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce&tr=udp://bt1.archive.org:6969/announce&tr=udp://bt2.archive.org:6969/announce&tr=udp://tracker.torrent.eu.org:451/announce

my download speed is pegged at 250kb but i have 500mb donwload speed, guess im just waiting at this point? lol

[crude cave]

at some points there are 300+ people in QUEUE to download

[crude cave]

yea

[mellow urchin]

thats probably it then

[north turret]

🤔 out of curiousity does getting to 333 mods random because after fresh install it's 308 active only

[sand notch]

Use the torrent link. I was downloading at 30 MB/S

[low shore]

Mods that are disabled by default are so for a reason (majority becausd were used for test and discarded, 1.0 will clear those mods). If you, by default, don't have #📍577-mods-in-mo2 then keep trying update/download GAMMA data -> Full GAMMA instalation till you get 333 mods active by default. This weekend has been bad in terms of installing/updating due a VERY HIGHT load in the Modb servers. Just follow the very clear and easy steps in the #old-how-to-install

[floral oracle]

i waited around 9 hours for my install LMAO

[crude cave]

or give it a day, week, idk
i pushed through and finished downloading after 2 days

2 days of multiple passes*

[mellow urchin]

i feel this rn LOL

[placid compass]

I see the Disabled list but the ones not on that list I thought they were supposed to be working.

[sand notch]

Tried the torrent link?

last pass before it worked was 306 317 and now 332

[runic wharf]

bro at least you got into the 300

[floral oracle]

is there any way to change the keybinds found in #│💻keybinds-in-gamma? i would like to rebind M

[tough iron]

Can I just restart the "full gamma installation" until it downloads all mods successfully ? or do I have to delete everything in the download folder everytime I do that ?

[runic wharf]

mine remained at 200+ 💀

[placid compass]

324 😭

[sand notch]

What are you guyes trying to queue up for? The patch or the GAMMA client?

[runic wharf]

the gamma

[sand notch]

Use the torrent downloader?

no queue

[runic wharf]

we meant the mods

[sand notch]

Oh

[floral oracle]

yes you can

[tough iron]

Alright thanks @floral oracle , How many files should I have in my download folder ? (to know when it's all good)

[sullen arrow]

so i got flagged because i was still at 254 mods and need to wait 24 hours is there a way to play anomaly without the modpack
?

[ocean geode]

I've tried downloading it 3 times so far but it still only says 188 active and not 333. Is this normal?

[floral oracle]

for now its normal

if you wait a month it'll probably be easier

moddb just constipated

[ocean geode]

A month? That ain't worth it lol, guess I'll find something else

[low shore]

Tomorrow, just for the shake of it being monday and the weekend over, will be better

[remote plank]

Who is the military ammo trader?

[crude oyster]

should be sergeant spooner

[stable stag]

In Agroprom. You should see an icon for traders

[crude oyster]

he's in the weird lil house across from the main agroprom research complex

[remote plank]

Thanks

[eternal olive]

I'm getting one mod per 30 minute install, can't even get to 200

[broken ember]

am i supposed to make all the ammo mysel?

[mellow urchin]

Torrent is deff way to go

[hasty bane]

My mods are stuck at 265

how do i fix that?

[mellow urchin]

download from torrent took 20 minutes

[hasty bane]

link?

to the torrent file

[eternal olive]

torrent file is for the base game

not mods

[hasty bane]

i meant for gamma

[eternal olive]

gamma is done through the installer

not torrent

[hasty bane]

okey, it is stuck att 265 mods

i have tried full download like 8 times

stuck at 265

[winged void]

Hey Guys, i got a weapon with Canted sights. How do i use that?

[eternal olive]

servers are overloaded, have to keep trying

[keen cedar]

Good luck keep trying. Moddb server issue.

[eternal olive]

were all in the same boat

[hasty bane]

haha ;(

[stable stag]

Use underbarrel grenade launcher key. V by default i think

[winged void]

Thank you!!

[placid compass]

I'm stuck at 324 after the last 2 days of running downloads and doing every trick I've been told to try.

[hasty bane]

rip

good luck man

[rustic geode]

what is the use of disabling cpu 0 from #╭📖faq

[placid compass]

I know after this time though if I say I'm gonna take a break it'll finish.....

[ripe agate]

Do it if you get stutters

Idk why that fixes for a lot of ppl but it does

[rustic geode]

the fix mod in MO2 works fine

[ripe agate]

yea or that 🤷‍♂️

[keen cedar]

Forcing it off cpu 0 (iirc) forces it to use a real core and not a virtual one

Helps in single threaded applications like the x-ray engine

[dreamy nimbus]

is this screen normal btw ? I am missing 1 mod from having them all installed I am just double checking cause I am going paranoid about errors and what not

[idle herald]

very dumb question so please forgive me but do I need to own a copy of stalker to play the anomaly/gamma mod?

[dreamy nimbus]

no

[broken ember]

how am i spoosed to progress when i cant get my hands on slugs

[placid compass]

I got the game to load with 324 but I have a feeling it won't fully run

[brazen sundial]

keep yammering that download button tll it dont download no more

[placid compass]

3 runs without it moving from 324, break time before I go mad

[eternal olive]

so is the traffic normal? or should i just wait a week

[oak vine]

why is everything so reflective all of a sudden?

[keen cedar]

Very abnormal, if you can wait that is probably best

[ruby wigeon]

do i need to run the full gamma installation multiple times to get all 333 mods?

[low shore]

!modb

[ruby wigeon]

because i ran it once, it said it finished and when i checked only 203 mods we're installed

[low shore]

!modb

[ripe agate]

[eternal olive]

lol

[low shore]

yeah xD

#📢announcements message

[brisk zinc]

!moddb, this is the command

[runic wharf]

yea its best to just wait

[elder rain]

General question, are stashes now limited in the size of items they can take?

[keen cedar]

Yes, I think it's like 30kg max

There's an optional mod for unlimited stash weight though

[runic wharf]

well what do you know, i got flagged as a bot in moddb

[golden fulcrum]

Sorry if this has already been answered but what would be the difference between winrar and 7zip extraction? Does winrar not handle any compressed format in a lossless sense?

[runic wharf]

guess its time to sleep and wait it out

[misty coral]

is there a wait function or do i have to sleep in game for time to pass quicker

[crude cave]

hey, asking again

which damage effect is the full red screen and blurry vision

[keen cedar]

Winrar has known issues extracting Anomaly

[golden fulcrum]

aight bet thank u ❤️

[crude cave]

what effect is this?

it happens every 5 ish seconds

[golden fulcrum]

my installation wasnt working before so probs why

[mellow urchin]

I'm downloading the mods via Grok's, i see lots of errors?

normal?

[warped ginkgo]

thirst/ hurt head?

[crude cave]

ive eaten, drank, bandaged, post healed, drank vodka, smoked, etc.

nothing

[crude cave]

is it bugged or am missing something

[warped ginkgo]

yellow means you are thirsty

[crude cave]

i just drank 3 waters

like 3 full mineral ones

[warped ginkgo]

enabled god mode?

or touched drink settings in menu?

[elder rain]

Oh sweet yes.

[solar ivy]

@molten mason It's me again (sorry for ping). Quest: Needle in a Haystack - quest accepts normally, however Stitch's Decoder does not spawn where it should be (the NVGs and RF receiver don't work too for some reason), i managed to get it to spawn once, but picking it up didn't complete the quest. (also now i noticed - wrong channel)

[crude cave]

nope

and no god mode

loner story mode start

just got to sidor after running to Truck Cemetery for a job

[warped ginkgo]

weird, if nothing works, then post in #old-bugs explaining everything and posting the save if necesary

[crude cave]

BRUH
NO IT WAS THE WATER

[molten mason]

[mellow urchin]

seeing lots of errors in the Gamma client, normal during install?

[molten mason]

Send me your save so I can investigate that

[crude cave]

my inventory showed full water, but i finished my last mineral water and it stopped

[warped ginkgo]

moddb servers are saturated

[crude cave]

this is bonkers

[warped ginkgo]

there a lot of people downloading the addons, i guess some have faulty downloads

[mellow urchin]

hmmmm

ok

[crude cave]

😐
i drank water, loaded my gun
and it crashed

[solar ivy]

(didn't know which one)

[crude cave]

onto #old-bugs i go

[molten mason]

Ty
I'm busy atm so give me a few

[solar ivy]

thanks for helping again

[molten mason]

Is this before or after the decoder?

[solar ivy]

before accepting

the quest

[molten mason]

Ok

[sharp crow]

2 times in hour you can dowload?

[north turret]

WHY DOES MY GAME KEEP GETTING UNHANDELED EXCEPTIONS

[solar ivy]

i managed to get it to spawn again, but, just like before, it didn't complete the quest

[molten mason]

Btw for future reference
It's all 3

[solar ivy]

ok

that's what i thought judging by their size

[elder needle]

Do anomaly and or GAMMA have multi-player?

[runic wharf]

no

[solar ivy]

clueless

[glossy marlin]

Did performance get worse with the new update/s?

I am running the game with the same specs as when i played a few months ago. I am getting less than 30 fps in most areas. Worse in hubs. I have done most fps saving methods including running the game in dx10 now and it doesn't help

[mellow urchin]

when i click run in GAMMA, game crashes right away

using dx11-avx

[inland cairn]

quick question, dead city running like 20 frames, no matter if i use dx11-avx or dx8-avx

[north turret]

Why don't we share the whole /downloads folder via torrent so people don't need to wait for moddb to be under capacity? Is it illegal or something?

[glossy marlin]

Same for me, no real or noticeable difference between running dx11 and dx8

[thick dock]

Just quick question, first time doing something like this, but what renderer is recommended when updating Anomaly to 1.5.2 for GAMMA?

[inland cairn]

i mean, my 1080ti should at least run the game at 60fps in dx8, at least

[solar ivy]

dead city does the same on my 3060, i7600, it's i believe engine, limitations

[terse hawk]

it's not about the gpu, it's about your cpu's single core performance

[inland cairn]

1700x.. not good single core performance, whats with the "framerate_optimisation" channel, does it help?

[glossy marlin]

It certainly helps a little bit

[north turret]

You can also try and turn AMD SMT off, it sometimes helps for older games

(And for newer ones like Spider Man too)

[heady fulcrum]

Hi there, having an issue with the game where I changed the Texture MIP setting and now none of my settings are being changed, even tried resetting them in launcher. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

[vivid mulch]

game keeps crashing whenever I load my save

[void merlin]

d:/games/anomaly/bin/..\gamedata\scripts\sim_board.script:346: attempt to perform arithmetic on upvalue 'stalker_pop_factor' (a nil value)

[void merlin]

Any idea what could cause that error?

[inland cairn]

Whats meant by Right click Beef's NVG addon and tick the following: Beef's NVG and that's it (untick all other options).

thats all i get when right clicking, what should i untick?

[glossy marlin]

Press reinstall and tick only beefs nvg

[crude cave]

it wasnt thirst

[glossy marlin]

I think some settings can't be changed but correct me if i'm wrong

[crude cave]

i knew it couldnt have been
nah it was bleeding, even though i used two bandages and a tourniquet

i think it was bugged

[vagrant pasture]

how do i remove ui ammo

mags redux mod

[solar ivy]

add mag check mod

[rocky urchin]

Check McM Config for Magazines, there is an option to remove the hud

[vagrant pasture]

mod is there and in mod menu I checked the hide options, no worky

[torn pine]

öhm... why did my message blocked? I didn´t do anything against the rules, i just had simple question... Just wanted to ask if it is possible to install a certain mod which adds animations to animal chopping

[vagrant pasture]

maybe a restart

[latent hull]

how do i enable de bug from the organizer

[vagrant pasture]

happened to me too trying to ask this

[rocky urchin]

It is included in FDDA already but you will get the busy hand bug.

!busyhands

[raw raft]

DO NOT ENABLE any of the disabled animations. These are the root cause of multiple animation loops that can break the game, to the point where you have to delete your current save file.
This bug is called "busy hands", an animation loop that prevents the player from interacting with the action keys, except for movement. This bug can also and especially be found with vanilla animations. Try not to spam them.

If you are still unsure whether you have it or not, try to do any of the following:

• interact with objects or people
• use a weapon (you shouldn't even be able to see it when you select it)
• open your inventory
• drink/eat/sleep
• check your HUD in the bottom left corner

If you cannot do any of this, it probably means you do have busy hands.

The only possible way to, maybe, remove it completely, is to disable any extra activated animation that was previously disabled. You will also have to go back to a previous save where you are 100% sure that you don't have busy hands.

Certified DISABLED animations that bring busy hands:

• Opening/closing backpack and any option related to this
• Animation for skinning mutants
• Disassembling objects with Left-Alt pressed
• Picking up objects where you can see the hand movement

[versed crow]

how do you pick up a backpack stash<?

[rocky urchin]

"Take All" when empty

[versed crow]

hm doesnt work

[torn pine]

thank you for the info. I loved that mod cause it added just the right amount of immersion

[rocky urchin]

Is it a stash you put down yourself or is it a generated stash ?

[versed crow]

put down myself

[rocky urchin]

Strange, should be able to pick it up. Try reloading a save and try again. if not... Well you have one backpack less

[calm girder]

My Last Dawn: Repel the renegade attack is bugged, and I cannot complete it using the debug menu.

The command i'm using is task_manager.get_task_manager():set_task_completed("cs_task0_ambush_renegade_story_name1")

Nothing seems to happen when I run the same command with any of the other tasks in the questline

[rugged pawn]

Im screwed for the next 20 hours my ip is banned i guess

Any idea how to get whitelisted lol

Or to try again would a vpn work

[sharp crow]

what to do?

[lyric meadow]

there is a problem with the servers to download gamma files?

[keen cedar]

Wait, if it's really stuck check out #│🔧troubleshooting

[naive berry]

i installed gamma through GoFile and i cant find the gamma file to extract

[keen cedar]

Yes, there have been issues for a few days now

[past nymph]

Is there a way change the ammo type my Toz 106 accepts so it can use slugs?

[wheat igloo]

Any possible place i can ask for help regarding installation

[floral oracle]

is there a way to rebind any of the gamma keybinds in #│💻keybinds-in-gamma? would like to rebind M key

[sharp crow]

thanks for answering problem solved i just needed to wait

[keen cedar]

#1025143518978650122

[warped ginkgo]

check in the upgrade tree of the weapon if there's a caliber change somewhere

if not, you can't change the ammo type

[keen cedar]

Yes, if keybind is not in Settings, check Mod Configuration Menu

[warped ginkgo]

unless you mean change the ammo type it supports

in this case it's the 'Y' keybind to open up the ammo options you have
