unable to load any spawns ^

[steel drift]

Where to access gamma save files?

And is it possible to transfer save files from gamma from another PC to another pc

[north turret]

Is ZCP supposed to be enabled in the MCM?

I feel like it's screwing with my game somehow

Since I found monolithians in CORDON.

Early game too

[prime fulcrum]

!save

[raw raft]

If you want to back up your saves, go into: Anomaly/appdata/ and backup the folder called savedgames

[prime fulcrum]

1.4 is

screenshot your MO2

[north turret]

Is 1.4 the current version?

[drifting ember]

im just reinstalling gamma and anomaly rn because i checked install and it said a bunch of files were corrupted

[north turret]

I haven't touched its settings

[prime fulcrum]

then what's the problem

[north turret]

I've just been seeing really weird occurances

Such as a mutant attacking the courier

And monolithians under the bridge in cordon

Things that just feel like they shouldnt happen

Because of the monolith I got a Korth with a suppressor and reflex right off the bat

[quaint quarry]

How the hell do you get sleeping pills? None of the vendors really sell them and I can't find a crafting recipe in game but they are in the debug menu.

[willow hawk]

kill other stalkers or buy them from medic

[vital narwhal]

Sooo....if I were to turn on one of the "optional" mods in MO2, do I have to move ita round in the load order, or is it fine, in theory?

[drifting ember]

yo i just reinstalled gamma and anomaly and im getting this error on trying to launch post anomaly launcher

correction: doesn't even reach the launcher

[prime fulcrum]

does anyone know what i have to do to fix this? just installed for the first time

[wooden crystal]

Thank you!

[gilded rose]

After the last update my performance has dropped from 60 fps to 30 fps give or take. Anyone else had the same experience?

Running Max settings on all except grass

[prime fulcrum]

hmm i wonder why

totally not because you're on max settings

[gilded rose]

yeah but i didn't change any settings between the updates

[surreal pond]

I died while having an open inventory now my game is blurry no matter what save i pick , anyone know how to fix?

[prime fulcrum]

get your gun out and right click

[rotund lance]

Might be a longshot, but I just installed GAMMA (358 active mods) and I'm experiencing a very slight micro-stutter every 1 second. I tried the "turn this on if you stutter" fix, triple buffering, disabling core 0, DX11 (not AVX). I also tried enabling/disabling G-sync, but I don't know if that's related.

This mod is a dream come true, but the small stutter makes it hard to enjoy it. Thanks!

[prime fulcrum]

!stutter

[raw raft]

1. Update G.A.M.M.A. to the latest version (open the installer with admin rights, click on Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then Full G.A.M.M.A. installation)
2. Bring your modlist back to default (type !default in #🤖bot-commands)
3. Enable the "Turn this on if you stutter" mod in your MO2 (you can found the mod under the G.A.M.M.A. Fixes separator)
4. If you have a NVIDIA GPU, you can enable Triple Buffering in NVIDIA control panel
5. Open Anomaly Launcher via MO2 and tick Prefetch sounds
6. If you have a beefy GPU, use Anomaly (DX11)

[surreal pond]

does not fix the issue (tried with 2d scope and reflex sight)

[prime fulcrum]

!dof

[raw raft]

It's the new DOF (Depth Of Field) effect. You can turn it off:

1. Open the game
2. Go in Mod Configuration Menu
3. Search SSS Settings
4. Disable whatever options you don't like and/or move sliders to the left

[rotund lance]

tried all of that, but thank you

[prime fulcrum]

there's no other fix

[surreal pond]

since i had other issues with dof before this was the first thing i tried so it does not help too

[prime fulcrum]

turned all in SSS off?

[surreal pond]

yup

[prime fulcrum]

and all sliders to the left?

[surreal pond]

yup

[prime fulcrum]

do you have saves before you died with an opened inventory?

[surreal pond]

these also have the blur

i could try to reinstall the mod related to the DOF but i have no clue which one it is

[rose kayak]

if you unload a weapon in companion's inv, ammo is gone

[brisk field]

Hello community.
I have a problem. Every time I go to sleep I get this error message and the game closes.

[raw raft]

It's the new DOF (Depth Of Field) effect. You can turn it off:

1. Open the game
2. Go in Mod Configuration Menu

[brisk field]

this ?

[sharp bough]

yes, what are the extra mods you got enabled?

[narrow sparrow]

i bet its the german translation that causes the game to crash on sleep

[brisk field]

German mods 😋

[sharp bough]

welp, disable 'em

[north turret]

Hello, is 16 GB of RAM enough to run Gamma?

[surreal pond]

in case you have not read this was already done

[narrow sparrow]

yes

[sharp bough]

it's a game from 2009 with mods. Any modern rig can run it

[brisk field]

yes

[north turret]

Oh ok I think gtx 1050ti is not good then

[sharp bough]

German translations will break your game so disable 'em

[brisk field]

For real ? what a shame…
It will try right away.

[sharp bough]

also, remove your newby tag in #⏩start-confirm

[brisk field]

check

[north turret]

with a gtx 1070 you think I could play in 60 fps low quality ? I'm asking because if I make this purchase and it still doesn't work I'll cry

[surreal pond]

i dont think you need to upgrade your graphics card because the game is free and you can try it with specs you have now

also if you dont have a crappy cpu a 1070 should run it fine even on more than low

[north turret]

yet my game is very badly optimized, under the rain I have 10 fps no joke
I have tried the discord tips but it does not change anything

[surreal pond]

hmm what cpu do you have

[rustic osprey]

So I wanna know how people can play this with zero stutters lol I have a constant 60 fps but as soon as I get into gun fights my game stutters

[north turret]

ryzen 5 3600

i don't think it's a bad cpu

[rustic osprey]

@north turret have you tried opening the modpack installer and downloading gamma data and then full gamma installation

[north turret]

what is your gpu ?

[rustic osprey]

RX 5600 XT

[north turret]

wtf

[sharp bough]

It's a game... From 2009... You're good man. But don't expect stable anything. The mod pack has over 300mods, you're lucky it even works

[north turret]

I understand but my game runs at 30fps so I wonder

[rustic osprey]

@north turret what? Is that bad or something lol

[north turret]

I wanted to change my gpu but I think I will do nothing it's better lmao

[surreal pond]

this might be stupid but have you set the game to dx 11 NOT avx?

i had an issue where i set it to avx and it struggled

[north turret]

yep, i have test all dx, dx 11 and dx 10 is better performance (30 fps 😮 )

[sharp bough]

that's because the game is running on hardware that it perceives as magic to it, with over 300mods stacked untop of it. Try adjusting your settings using this guide:
#╭📖faq message

Or if you are really desperate. Get rid of your newby tag (do it regardless of what you decide!) in #⏩start-confirm and check out #old-framerate-optimisation , but do it at your own risk because it can break your game

[rustic osprey]

Yea it might just be a bad install it happens my game was the same way yesterday I did the gamma data installation and then gamma full install and it fixed the problem

[north turret]

Thanks i try this

[surreal pond]

the fix to my issue was doing the full gamma installation

[opaque knot]

well ill send an image then

[rancid arch]

Got this error trying to launch the game, what should I do?

[sharp bough]

[sharp bough]

you have 2 mods disabled, why?

[languid mesa]

this happened coz expedition and beefs nvg, ive done everything, disabling, enabling, new presets, deleting stuff, reinstalling, new modlists, new saves

[rancid arch]

Only the ones that they tell you to disable in the discord for retexture

[opaque knot]

and if i start new game and going to the dark valley there is no crash, dead city, cordon~~ every place is fine but only dark valley

[rancid arch]

Put the mods back to how they were originally and still have the same error

there's an easy fix for it... Just play with this music on loop!

do you have a different drive you could install it it?

[nocturne topaz]

m.2, yes

[sharp bough]

what were you doing when you crashed and what is your ingame FOV?

[nocturne topaz]

should i install on that drive?

[sharp bough]

"Assertion failed", from what we know, is a permission issue, but it could be something else.
All the other fixes you tried failed, the last one is to install it to a different drive, so try that.
Follow the guide in #old-how-to-install

Could there be a reason that I can't enter Pripyat at all? The game crashes no matter which transition point I use, I've tried going through Jupiter, Radar, Pripyat Outskirts, tried Debug mode and fast travelling to a random stash there, tried the guide in Jupiter, can't go there no matter what

[tardy bramble]

Hello. I'm having a fatal error.

[tender forge]

Could you go to anomaly/appdata/logs

[ivory aspen]

Hi! What's the best 12x76 ammo type when dealing which such chonkers as chimeras and pseudiants? Buckshot seems to work fine for me, but I'm curious if slugs or darts can kill them faster. Or is their tough skin not actually considered as armour and they just have lots of health? Cause if that's the cause, based on stats buckshot is superior?

[tender forge]

We post crash logs here, sir.
If you want help with that question..

2. Open GAMMA installer as ADMIN.
3. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
4. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"

Will do, I dont know why im getting so many issues now. My first time installing this was super clean a month ago.

[tender forge]

Either you've pressed full gamma install more than 2 times in less than an hour.... Or moddb being trigger happy lately

[winter kite]

Umm excuse me
But whenever I try to install Gamma the installer stops responding after sometime After I click Full Gamma Installation (I'm on windows 11 and have followed all the instructions on the how to install channel)

@tender forge Redownloading the data fixed my pripyat crash, thanks a lot! PS : the recommended mirrors have some special files is that why they are recommended? Not sure what the logic is how doing a reinstall fixes it?

I love everything about the game so far except how hungry and thirsty my character ALWAYS gets. its like I just drank, I just ate. Moved halfway across a map. Instantly hungry again. Is there a way to slow down the hunger rate or thirst rate just a little. I like that the meds make me hungry and thirsty etc. But on its own its a little frustrating.

[ornate nymph]

dumb question, but how do I reset the default gamma modlist?(I forgot what I disabled and enabled)

[narrow sparrow]

!default follow the modlist part

[raw raft]

Mod list
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.ltx will be reverted to default)
3. Paste this file in Anomaly\appdata

No clue. Your error leads to nothing that I can think of. Best I can suggest, is you reinstall Gamma and Anomaly completely and hope that fixes it. I passed your info to the other staff. Maybe they can figure out a fix

If you are going to reinstall, be sure to follow #old-how-to-install instructions

[opaque knot]

k if i reinstall gamma my current save is gone? or can i keep using that save?

[languid mesa]

so im reinstalling

its not going well

[wraith creek]

in which folder was the installer

[narrow sparrow]

YOu are missing mods run a full install

[raw raft]

Full GAMMA Installation 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, reinstall and fix them, and any that need to be updated will be updated.

To do so:
1. Open your G.A.M.M.A. installer as admin
2. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
3. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"

In case you want to save your in-game or MCM settings (because the installer will revert them back to default), type !backup in #🤖bot-commands.

[narrow sparrow]

gamma/grok modpack installer

[sharp bough]

Your save file is on Anomaly/appdata . If you back that up you should be fine, but be aware. It maybe that it's your save file that's corruped

[opaque knot]

corruped... ok i'll try thx

[narrow sparrow]

!k98 try this first

[raw raft]

1. Go in this folder: GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches
2. Copy these three folders (check pic)
3. Go to your Anomaly folder
4. Paste these three folders (check pic)
5. Overwrite/replace all if asked
   It won't delete your save files.

Here is a picture for reference: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1012510897136222293/1013951079538495528/k98.png

[languid mesa]

huh.

[narrow sparrow]

Go to moddb.com and see it you got flagged as a bot

[languid mesa]

oh no, i just installed once

[narrow sparrow]

Try again in 1.30 hours or use a vpn(not a browser extension) and run a full install from the installer

[languid mesa]

i thought you had to do multiple times to get flagged

[latent arch]

Greetings!

I'm having a bit of an issue :

I try to change the resolution to 2560x1440 though every time I do that, the game crashes and I get this error.

Thanks for the help!

[narrow sparrow]

Depends on how moddb is feeling

[languid mesa]

[glacial knoll]

[latent arch]

Much obliged! It's all working. Time to start my first adventure 🙂

[wary ocean]

hi folks, new pc so fresh install of GAMMA, game won't launch from MO2, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anomaly boots perfectly fine on its own, updated to 1.5.2.

Gamma installer has completed and shows no issue when pressing md5 check, MO2 shows 358 mods active, when I press play to load the anomaly launcher, launcher loads, I press play and then I get the splash loading screen, windows error noise with no window and the game never boots. I can't figure this out 😅 have tried running mo2 as admin, redownloaded gamma fully with same issues, again all run as admin.

[tender forge]

Have you tried going to mo2 and choose to launch dx11 instead of anomaly launcher

[glacial knoll]

Is it possible to run Gamma without any shader mod? My system runs Anomaly on DX10 perfectly but shaders do tend to cause some drops in FPS.

[wary ocean]

yes I have tried direct to dx11 both avx and non avx modes and dx10 versions too, I will try dx9 now and see if that works but Id rather be playing with dx11 if I can 😅

[wary ocean]

nah still nothing with dx9 either

[tender forge]

@narrow sparrow would that be k98 issue?

[narrow sparrow]

when in doubt try it

[tender forge]

I wouldn't say dumb
Dumb would be missing 1.5.2 anomaly update

Have fun

[hearty holly]

I've been looking all over in the discord and haven't found it yet, but I'd like to replace the Vanilla npcs with the HD models, is there a specific method to do so?

[tender forge]

Not recommended

Like at all

[brisk zinc]

I don't remember the command for new people, was it !new?

[hearty holly]

As in functionally or naturalistically?

[tender forge]

Yes

[hearty holly]

Lol.

[brisk zinc]

!new

[raw raft]

YOU HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO THE SERVER.
DO NOT REMOVE THE NEWCOMER ROLE IF YOU HAVEN'T LAUNCHED GAMMA SUCCESSFULLY AT LEAST ONCE. YOU WILL BE PUNISHED FOR DOING SO.

If you have just joined the server, read this: #❗❗newbies-read-this

If you've been in here for a while, launched the game AT LEAST ONCE, yet still have this badge -🔰- near your nickname and (rightly) don't understand why half the server is gone, carefully read here:
#❗❗newbies-read-this

[brisk zinc]

This is to answer to your "I can't find it"

Because we do have it

[hearty holly]

I like the HD models, but if it causes a problem then I guess I just have to deal.

[brisk zinc]

And yes it cause problems

[tender forge]

Now where's that pinned comment

[hearty holly]

I see. Thanks for the info. That's too bad. I thought they were cool lol.

[brisk zinc]

This is basically the reason in pills

[hearty holly]

Yeah I figured. That sucks, but is what is it is. I just installed GAMMA after playing Anomaly with them for just under a year(?) or so. I'm just stoked to see what's different in Gamma.

[brisk zinc]

I'll remove your role manually

[tender forge]

Could have just directed to #⏩start-confirm

[brisk zinc]

I already did

The command is above

[hearty holly]

So I'm good?

[languid mesa]

i never got this role

also since when did gamma go from 330 mods to 358

[tender forge]

Yup

[tender forge]

Someone hasn't followed #📢announcements

[languid mesa]

your correct, i dont like pings

[hearty holly]

Lol Based.

[brisk zinc]

Here, have another

You don't have the role because you got in before the flood

[languid mesa]

im on do not disturb

im not getting pings, im just on the channel

[brisk zinc]

I'm on do not disturb as well and if someone mention me, I get the ping

[languid mesa]

i turned that off

also i am offended that moddb calls me a bot

[brisk zinc]

Ah the "mention" thing directly, okay

[brisk zinc]

Just wait for it, or use a VPN

[languid mesa]

'it appears you are a bot'
im not an npc wth moddb

During the early artifact research quest line for the Ecologists in the Great Swamp I accidentally discarded one of the three artifacts and now it’s gone. Is this quest-line fucked for this play through?

[restive ivy]

HI I HAVE NO ANIMATION WEN AMMO CHECKING

[languid mesa]

me neither pal, me neither

i dont think there is

[brisk zinc]

!inspect

[raw raft]

If you want to manually inspect your gun, you'll need to disable this mod in MO2:
"G.A.M.M.A. Inspect on double tap F disabler"

inb4 "I don't see any animations for this specific gun" - that's because your gun doesn't have animations for that

[restive ivy]

hm okey thanks

[languid mesa]

35 seconds AGO

HUH

[brisk zinc]

Just wait a little bit

[languid mesa]

its a minute AGO, the time has already passed

[brisk zinc]

You'll be unblocked eventually, don't panic

[languid mesa]

how long do i need to wait? i didnt know it did THIS

[tender forge]

The more you refresh, the longer it will take

[brisk zinc]

Basically

[tender forge]

Go make some Pelmeni or smth

[glad python]

Go touch grass, then come back

[languid mesa]

i dont have a life man what am i meant to do

[keen cedar]

Get a vpn

Or wait another 30min

[tender forge]

Or get Patience

Play some 2fort in the meantime

Hello people, i have a bug with my HUD when i try to remove it with the hotkey, it's only removing the psy bar and i still have all other informations. (and it goes back to normal when i press again enter) And sometimes when i change zones, my health bar is completly false until i die and reload the quicksave... any idea ?

[keen cedar]

Body HUD is cycled by pressing H. And your health bar being fucked up when changing zones is a known bug that is generally fixed by reloading + moving to a different area

[trim summit]

howwww i didn't know that, im gonna try this next time ! Thanks a lot !

im going to... delete the relevant files, and move the patched files over again, even though i copied them over (i made sure to overwrite existing files when i did copy them over the first time), see if this changes anything

ah, issue is that i dont have some of those files...lol

problem solved

[mint violet]

my game freezes and then it just stays like that 80% of the time while im playing oh and forgot to add i gotta close it with task manager the normal one doesnt work

[dense pumice]

hey chat, how do you fix this? i've tried for a while now, like updating gamma and spamming quick load https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/921956761949327380/1055524154968899694/image.png?width=1051&height=657

my zoom get's stuck, my buttons don't function, and my health meter looks fucked

i'm pretty sure there's more under the surface lol

[keen cedar]

!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

[keen cedar]

@dense pumice 👆 this sounds like you

[dense pumice]

let me try

[keen cedar]

see also !busyfix (go type it into #🤖bot-commands )

[mint violet]

dude i really need help with this

[dense pumice]

but like, it always appear when i go into cordon lol

[keen cedar]

yes, known

[dense pumice]

ah, cordon is just cursed huh

[keen cedar]

and yes, transitioning between zones can cause it

not specific to Cordon

[dense pumice]

ah

[willow hawk]

Badly

[keen cedar]

deeply nonspecific tbh. not much we can do about it with the info given except telling you to redo a full install

!backup

[raw raft]

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

[mint violet]

well shit

[dense pumice]

well, i sure hope it doesn't fuck my save too hard

since, i have some good stuff

[keen cedar]

here's hoping you made lots of save backups

and didn't just rely on quicksave and autosave

[dense pumice]

what the fuck is a backup

[keen cedar]

cos the fix is essentially "roll back saves until you get one that doesn't have busyhands and pray it doesn't happen again"

[dense pumice]

i do know a quicksave that is safe from it

[hardy valley]

Hello! Having busy hands from start of a new game is new to me

[dense pumice]

i hope so at least

[keen cedar]

screenshot your MO2 pls?

[keen cedar]

you're missing mods, you should have #📍577-mods-in-mo2 with the latest updates, so start by running a full install

!full

[raw raft]

Full GAMMA Installation 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, reinstall and fix them, and any that need to be updated will be updated.

To do so:
1. Open your G.A.M.M.A. installer as admin
2. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
3. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"

In case you want to save your in-game or MCM settings (because the installer will revert them back to default), type !backup in #🤖bot-commands.

[hardy valley]

ty)

[dense pumice]

btw, @keen cedar

do i have to like, close down gamma?

[keen cedar]

??

[dense pumice]

like, it's running rn

[dense pumice]

i'm fucking with the numbers, while gamma is open

[keen cedar]

yeah it's not gonna take effect until you close GAMMA and MO2 and relaunch those

generally speaking you should NEVER modify any game files while the game is still open

that's a one-way ticket to corrupting your save permanently

[dense pumice]

good to know

[keen cedar]

for all games, to be clear

[dense pumice]

wait

if i fuck with the settings while the game is running, that could fuck up all my saves?

[keen cedar]

YES

[languid mesa]

hello

[dense pumice]

welp, i'm so lucky i'm not that dumb

[languid mesa]

and yes correct

[keen cedar]

do not modify game files while the game is running. and make backups of your saves.

[dense pumice]

still don't know how to make a backup tho

[keen cedar]

!save

[raw raft]

If you want to back up your saves, go into: Anomaly/appdata/ and backup the folder called savedgames

[dense pumice]

ah

[keen cedar]

AND make multiple save files

don't just rely on autosave and quicksave

[long terrace]

Can somebody link me the thread on uninstalling and doing a clean install?

[keen cedar]

!delete

[raw raft]

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

[long terrace]

thanks

[dense pumice]

ok, so

i gave up on my latest save

since, i found a same save that's safe from the bug

now, how do i prevent busy hands?

[tender forge]

!busyfix

[raw raft]

A possible fix for busyhands if you have the "Turn this on if you stutter" mod enabled: reduce the auto_switch_distance_start in small increments of a few hundred at a time in \GAMMA\mods\Turn this on if you stutter\gamedata\configs alife.ltx.
Start with like 300 or something, then every time you get busyhands randomly, reduce it by 200 more.
If the fix needs to be resistant to changes made by the installer make sure to also modify the alife.ltx file in \GAMMA\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_addons\Turn this on if you stutter\gamedata\configs

If you get the bug on first load, try loading the same save again. It loads faster and is less likely to bug.

[dense pumice]

right

[keen cedar]

do not spam anims, basically

resist the temptation to turn on every FDDA anim no matter how much you love backpack unzipping

[analog nymph]

I have light bug. How could I fix it?

[mint violet]

@keen cedar turns out it was dynamic music

[tender forge]

!shader

[raw raft]

To clean your "Shader Cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[tight mountain]

Have any idea what's causing this? I put a bunch of hours in to this save with multiple saves and no matter what I get to one morning and it crashes on this

[sweet horizon]

Yeah same for me @tight mountain

I keep getting this everytime I try to load a save

[tight mountain]

I can load a save just fine but when I play, I get to a certain point and it crashes

[tender forge]

Screenshot mo2

[north turret]

hi i update new gamma and try 4 times but all time this 2 new weapon in Purple pls eny help

anyone knows the fix ? Would be much appreciated 🙂

[burnt shore]

hello, I have a weird problem.

some icons have disappeared mid game

thirst, hunger etc.

in addition the icons of my companions are gone, they are still around me but I dont see their health anymore

[sweet horizon]

Load last save, that had happened to me a couple of times and all I had to do was to restart the game

[burnt shore]

restarting has not solved anything

[tight mountain]

@tender forge the log?

[burnt shore]

i restarted the session, restarted the game, restarted my pc, nothing helped

[tender forge]

Read again what i've asked
Screenshot your MO2

[keen cedar]

when did you last update

[tender forge]

Did you press num Enter by accident?

[sweet horizon]

Literally did an update yesterday or 2 days ago.

!modlist could i get your modlist pls?

[raw raft]

Follow these instructions to send your mod list: <#╭📖faq message>

[sweet horizon]

And I did it to try to fix the problem. The problem was happening even before last update

I will check now

god yes

what is the point of this button? just to add some extra immersion?

[tender forge]

Press on Category and tell me if you see any red ❌

[burnt shore]

anyway thank you people for helping me, have a nice day/evening and get out of here stalker!

[tight mountain]

@tender forge no red X's

[tender forge]

In that case

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/night-mutants-01

Download the mod file(s) from moddb. DO NOT EXTRACT.
Place them into your GAMMA\downloads folder. Overwrite if needed.
Run the GAMMA installer as admin.
Click the "Download G.A.M.M.A. Data" button.
Click the "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation" button

If you recently did a full install ignore the above steps and install it manually from Mo2

[tight mountain]

@tender forge ok, I'll do that. Thank you

||Also skill issue ||

[tender forge]

You're missing mods and quite few of them actually

[calm mortar]

i downloaded the whole gamma launcher with everything

[tender forge]

Do a full install again

1. Disable antivirus temporarily
2. Open GAMMA installer as ADMIN.
3. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
4. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"
   We STRONGLY suggest you use mirror 127 or 128 when you do.

!backup also don't forget

[raw raft]

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

[calm mortar]

aight thx for help

[burnt shore]

wtf so the devs placed it there? I did not even know you can climb/jump on that tree. My guess was that somehow the anomalies messed with the spawn point of the stash. xD Thanks again!

[keen cedar]

all stashes are placed on purpose by Anomaly devs

they don't change location

[burnt shore]

yeah but I did not expect them to put a hovering stash into the game that looks like some kind of bug. 😄

[tender forge]

Just your usual misplaced item

[keen cedar]

they're a bunch of sadists who think it would be funny to make you parkour for it lmao

[calm mortar]

is there a proper way to uninstall it or can i just delete it

[tender forge]

Right... Battery low, ill be back in ~30 min

[tender forge]

You don't need to uninstall anything, just follow the steps

[keen cedar]

no need to uninstall or delete anything

[calm mortar]

[harsh siren]

So um How do i fix this? or is it supposed to be like this?

[keen cedar]

you'll have to run another full install, but first go to https://moddb.com and see if you've been flagged as a bot

if you have, you'll see a big red screen

[harsh siren]

I did not get a big red screen so ill try the FUll install

[frosty prairie]

my computer crashed and after i restarted it i got this error

[keen cedar]

!dest i am sorry my friend

[raw raft]

You'll need to delete your Anomaly folder.

1. Open your Anomaly folder, if you have any save files you want to keep, take them from this folder: Anomaly\appdata\savedgames
2. Delete your Anomaly folder
3. Extract a clean Anomaly folder (VERSION 1.5.2 IS THE ONLY SUPPORTED VERSION FOR GAMMA, if you don't have it yet, type and send !152 in #🤖bot-commands)
4. Run the installer as admin and make sure you have the latest version: 3.8 (If you don't have it, grab it here: <#📢announcements message>)
5. Click on Download GAMMA data and then click on Full GAMMA installation

[keen cedar]

perfect. yeah, just open installer as admin, click "Download GAMMA Data", when that is done select mirror 128 in the GAMMA installer, then click "Full GAMMA Installation"

[frosty prairie]

when i do that do i need to allow power shell scripts

[keen cedar]

no

[frosty prairie]

ok thanks

[keen cedar]

so what specifically is your issue when you try to run the game?

like what is the error you are getting, are you missing mods etc.

[vapid glen]

I haven't run it yet since I am stuck on the part where Gamma Installer cannot find the MO2

[keen cedar]

can you run MO2 directly from the .exe file in your GAMMA folder?

[vapid glen]

How can I do that?

Wait I might've gotten something

[frosty prairie]

do i just re add my saves to that file location

[keen cedar]

you double click the file??

[keen cedar]

!crash can you provide your entire crash log here, please?

[raw raft]

Send your crash log where it was asked IF YOU ARE BEING HELPED, not inside #🤖bot-commands if you're using this command in this channel.
You won't be helped, it's literally just a channel where you can use commands.

The file is inside your Anomaly folder, this is the complete path:
Anomaly/appdata/logs.

This is what you could find:

1. xray_yournamehere.txt
2. xray_yournamehere.log
3. xray_yournamehere without any file extension

You just need to send ONE of these files where it was asked. It's either ONE file with .txt OR .log OR with nothing at the end.
DON'T send anything with .bkp at end.

Drag and drop the file inside the Discord channel, Discord will handle it for you.
Make sure you're not using any extra mods, if you do, you'll need to ask in #🔨modded-gamma-support.

[keen cedar]

if you made save backups, yes, you just put them back into Anomaly/appdata/savedgames

[rancid arch]

@keen cedar Are you able to help with this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/922555488665743391/1055558189736787998/image.png

[keen cedar]

you did not reply to my question

so answer that first

do you have red crosses next to any of your mods in MO2

[rancid arch]

Oh sorry, yes I do

[keen cedar]

ok, only way to fix that is to run another full GAMMA installation. but first, make sure you aren't blocked as a bot on moddb: https://moddb.com

do you see a big red screen?

[rancid arch]

Nah

Just gamma Anomaly is fine?

[calm mortar]

yo i have that problem after i did a new gamma installation

[keen cedar]

FULL INSTALL:

1. Disable antivirus temporarily
2. Open GAMMA installer as admin
3. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
4. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"
   We strongly suggest you use mirror 127 or 128 when you do.

[keen cedar]

then either wait for it to go away or use a VPN and run another full installation

[keen cedar]

you do not need to delete anything or touch your Anomaly folder. do only the steps I pasted above

[rancid arch]

Okay, Thanks!

[keen cedar]

copy and paste wpn_sks_b_pu_hud.ogf into the search bar on the bottom right of MO2, and tell me which mod it's from

[mystic hedge]

i don't really see a search bar in MO2, MO2 is 2.4.4

[mystic hedge]

76 boomsticks

[narrow skiff]

i don't know if someone help you or you find ansver by your self but in my case problem was DX11 setting for some reasone it was DX10

[keen cedar]

If you have this folder - delete it, if you don't have it - skip this step.
7) Launch the GAMMA installer with admin rights, press Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then Only install G.A.M.M.A. addons
8) If your issue isn't solved, press Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then Full GAMMA Installation in the installer.

[mystic hedge]

[bright canopy]

hi i have a probelm where the SSR dosnt work properly there are no reflections on weapon and arms only on water and puddels any one that can help

[restive radish]

hey guys, just realised something strange, all my tasks/quest have disappeared from the task list and from the map.
like i never had them.

any of you that know what the fault can be?

[outer willow]

Hey guys so I was having issues all day yesterday where I played the game fine with no issues for a couple days and then out of nowhere started getting CTD every time i loaded my save. I was instructed to go to the installer and do a full install and it bugged out so I had to do it a second time and that worked. Played all night and some of this morning but I crashed again because the game couldnt find a file for a boars leg. Loaded my save and CTD during loading now with the same crash report that i had that was preventing me from palying the game. Any ideas?

Not sure if this belongs in custom modlist or default modlist as the mod in question I think is mags redux, I frequently get this crash and it specifically happens when looting a body or opening a container.

[keen cedar]

in #🔨modded-gamma-support since it is indeed a mags issue

but also, don't install Anomaly or GAMMA into your Downloads folder

!move

[raw raft]

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

DON'T. USE. THEM.
DON'T.

Moving Anomaly:

1. Move your Anomaly folder to the new location
2. Go to your G.A.M.M.A folder
3. Delete the ModOrganizer.ini file. It should be below the ModOrganizer.exe application

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

1. Open your G.A.M.M.A. 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 G.A.M.M.A. folder to the new location

When you have finished moving everything to the new location:

1. Run the installer as admin
2. Click on 1. Allow Powershell scripts
3. Click on 2. Launch MO2
4. Select your Anomaly folder
5. Click on Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then click on Full G.A.M.M.A. installation

[whole tiger]

It's not my actual downloads folder its just a separate folder with that name I use for 3rd party downloaded games, but ty I'll check custom modlist

[keen cedar]

is it located in C:\Users? if so, get it out of there

[restive radish]

i have mine PDA.

have tracked back some saves and it seems that the issue came yeasterday.

i experienced massive lag, managed to go to a campfire and save.
Now when i load that save, i immediately get that all my tasks are completed.

i can load a previous save but loose some hours of progress. but i guess that is not the end of the world

[keen cedar]

yeah, load the previous save

[trim belfry]

[past summit]

Crashing whenever entering Yantar. Not sure what causing it. Need help

[restive radish]

Had the same issue.

Had to reinstall the gamma mod pack with full installation.

[restive radish]

You have to start the gamma installer as admin otherwise it will not fix the issue

[past summit]

any other possible fixes? also will I lose my save

[cerulean hawk]

I just did an update, full gamma install.
Launching the game from MO2, I get the default stalker anomaly logo, not the gamma logo, and then the game never opens
Anyone have any ideas

[narrow sparrow]

!k98

[raw raft]

1. Go in this folder: GAMMA RC3\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches
2. Copy these three folders (check pic)
3. Go to your Anomaly folder
4. Paste these three folders (check pic)
5. Overwrite/replace all if asked
   It won't delete your save files.

You should not loose your saves 🙂

[outer willow]

okay should i extend any of the tabs or just as is when its opened?

[sharp bough]

have them all collapsed

[restive radish]

Just open the gamma installer as admin,

Click download gamma data, then full gamma download.

Check that you have the correct nr of mods in the modlist afterwards

[sharp bough]

if thou art playing GAMMA, remove thine newby tag, sir!
#⏩start-confirm

[restive radish]

Thanks, had missed that detail completely.
Sorry

[sharp bough]

WTF?!
Is your game located in a Temp folder?!

[sterile anvil]

is it normal to be stuck at this point for over 8 hours? i've tried redownloading gamma data, deleting all of the gamma files and redownloading them.

[outer willow]

Im honestly not sure I watched a youtube video and the followed the instructions on the discord for my initial download/install.

[sharp bough]

post the full filepaths to GAMMA and Anomaly here

[sharp bough]

Restart the installer

and make sure you followed all the steps in #old-how-to-install @sterile anvil

[outer willow]

so i can only find the Anomoly folder I right clicked the GAMMA shortcut and went to file location and it is in a temp folder. Everytime ive installed after its done i open MO2 and go to the Anomoly folder and select that as the location and then it gives a error and creates a gamma short cut that i use.

[cerulean hawk]

here's a pro tip, once you got something working at all, don't go messing with it unless you want to spend a full day debugging one solitary change

[sharp bough]

wtf

[cerulean hawk]

Modifying Gamma: More terrifying than running out of battery on your headlamp in truck cemetery in the rain at night and being jumped by a bloodsucker during an emission

[sharp bough]

find your GAMMA and your Anomaly folders. Move the to the root of your drive by following this guide

My Anomaly folder is in the root of the drive so i should only move the gamma one then correct?

[sharp bough]

[rocky hatch]

Is there a list for the 358 mods that're supposed to be active? I fat fingered "Enable All" and now I have 415.

[sharp bough]

!default

[raw raft]

Mod list
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.ltx will be reverted to default)
3. Paste this file in Anomaly\appdata

[rocky hatch]

I clicked that. There's still 415.

[cerulean hawk]

whew, I narrowly dodged a bullet there... ALWAYS make a backup of your anomaly installation folder before messing with stuff... yikes

thought I had bricked my save

[sharp bough]

did you open installer as admin?

[rocky hatch]

I followed everything the #old-how-to-install said to the T. I was just about to launch when I fat fingered "Enable All" in Mod Organizer 2.

[sharp bough]

...

[rocky hatch]

Yeah, I know. I'm disappointed in myself too.

[sharp bough]

now FIX IT by doing this

yeet

[rocky hatch]

Well, not STALKER mods. This is the only actual time I'm modding STALKER outside of throwing Call of Chernobyl on and calling it a day.

[tender forge]

We are playing a mod on top of a mod on top of a mod that was build on top of CoC

[rocky hatch]

Sounds about what's been described to me.

[digital tide]

So i was playing Stalker and everything was going good and then my game crashes twice and then i restart my pc and this happens when i try and boot the game up any known fixes for this?

[sweet horizon]

Hello, can I have help for my issue? Everytime I try to load a save, I crash and receive the following message

[tender forge]

Like error says, AV most likely deleted anomaly exes and now they reside in quarantine

That's why its recommended to add Gamma AND Anomaly into AV Exclusions

[sweet horizon]

Cheers

[digital tide]

is there any way to get it back?

[sharp bough]

ask it nicely

[sweet horizon]

Assistance would be very much appreciated 🙂

[tender forge]

Yes, either go to your av and restore them from quarantine, or extract exes from anomaly zip folder that should still be on your computer somewhere (unless you deleted it and now will have to download anomaly again)

[sharp bough]

sup?

[digital tide]

can you guide me through it cause i have no clue what to do?

[sweet horizon]

IHello, I receive this message everytime I try to load a save

[sharp bough]

screenshot MO2

[sweet horizon]

mo2 is launcher ?

[sharp bough]

@tender forge you started this now finish it

[sharp bough]

ye

[tender forge]

Can't.
Im not near pc to tell exactly in which folder the exes are

I would just straight reinstall anomaly with the update and called it a day tbh

[sharp bough]

any ❌ in MO2?

[sharp bough]

just do this:

!dest

[raw raft]

You'll need to delete your Anomaly folder.

1. Open your Anomaly folder, if you have any save files you want to keep, take them from this folder: Anomaly\appdata\savedgames
2. Delete your Anomaly folder
3. Extract a clean Anomaly folder (VERSION 1.5.2 IS THE ONLY SUPPORTED VERSION FOR GAMMA, if you don't have it yet, type and send !152 in #🤖bot-commands)
4. Run the installer as admin and make sure you have the latest version: 3.8 (If you don't have it, grab it here: <#📢announcements message>)
5. Click on Download GAMMA data and then click on Full GAMMA installation

[sweet horizon]

Yep, no X

you can choose mirrors in the GAMMA installer

#🔨base-gamma-support message

Ah ok. Will do. Just to be sure, it would be recommended to keep user.ltx file to keep all of my game , correct ?

[sharp bough]

if you want to keep your settings do this:

!backup

[raw raft]

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

[sweet horizon]

Ok perfect, thank you guys. your help has been very much appreciated 🙂 Goodnight.

[tender forge]

Just don't forget to launch GAMMA installer as ADMIN

[cerulean hawk]

what is zcp?

if zombies tick box is disabled in ZCP, does that mean no zombies will spawn?

why are zombies turned off by default in zcp?

[digital tide]

am i deleting gamma to @sharp bough

or just anomaly

[sharp bough]

no

[digital tide]

word

[sharp bough]

Zombies still spawn. Don't touch that

[cerulean hawk]

also where is the warfare/remote combat that I disabled last time? I can't find it

[sharp bough]

warfare does not work with GAMMA

!warfare

[raw raft]

G.A.M.M.A. isn't built with Warfare in mind and Warfare, per se, have bad perfomance, bugs, issues, etc., this is why it isn't recommended.
You can play it if you really want to, but forget about #🔨base-gamma-support, this channel support is only for G.A.M.M.A. vanilla (which basically means no extra stuff at all) and is also used by Grok for bug fixing.
Since G.A.M.M.A. vanilla doesn't use Warfare, you'll need to use #🔨modded-gamma-support.

[sharp bough]

Alife simulation is in default Settings I believe

[cerulean hawk]

so its disabled by default

[wise wren]

Heyo, I recently installed gamma and get this error message when trying to start a new game. I've got no idea on how to fix it, anyone know how to?

[modern grove]

I have a question. I cant start stalker gamma. When im inside the mod organizer it shows that all mods are active ( 358) and no problems. But in the log there are three consecutive errors. Can somebody please help me?. Ive had Gamma before and it worked perfectly

[cerulean hawk]

oh yess that was it, thanks.

Follow up question, is ZCP how I would tune more/less stalkers?

because I rarely encounter enemy stalkers and it makes me sad

I want more gunplay and less Left 4 Dead

[sharp bough]

yes

[modern grove]

Id really appreciate if somebody could explain the problem to me via screen share

[tender forge]

!152

[raw raft]

1. Download the 1.5.2 update: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/downloads/stalker-anomaly-151-to-152
2. Open the zip, you'll see 4 folders and a text file
3. SELECT the content of this archive (4 folders and a .txt file)
4. DRAG AND DROP the content of this archive inside your Anomaly folder
5. OVERWRITE everything when asked to do so
6. Open the installer with admin rights
7. Click on Download G.A.M.M.A. data AND THEN CLICK Full G.A.M.M.A. Installation

IF YOU HAVE THE ENTIRE UPDATE FOLDER NAMED Anomaly-1.5.1-to-1.5.2-Update IN YOUR ANOMALY FOLDER, THE GAME IS NOT UPDATED.

What are you smoking?

[cerulean hawk]

lol, the mutants remind me of L4D, and I really like the tactical gunplay more than that... though mutants are good cash

[tender forge]

[cerulean hawk]

final question for now, I have disabled HD models, in the MO2

I want to know what else is safe to disable for easy graphical nerfs. Basic Anomaly runs at a solid 200+ FPS, but something in GAMMA is making it hard to stay above 30... with all shaders off (causing overheating as well)

I've done #old-framerate-optimisation

[north turret]

uninstalled, adios 👍

[cerulean hawk]

and extra stuff I've found on reddit, etc also over the last 2-3 weeks

[wise wren]

So did I do it wrong? I assumed I updated it to 1.5.2 since it I shows the text document in the folder

It has the 151to152 document there already

[sharp bough]

game has over 300mods in it. You're lucky it even runs

[modern grove]

did u try the fixes inside MO2?

[cerulean hawk]

what specifically

[tender forge]

Maybe didn't extract all the files, try again

[modern grove]

its named "turn this on if you stutter" haha

[cerulean hawk]

not talking about stutter, I'm talking about serious overheating and tanking framerate

[cerulean hawk]

not just stutter and occasional dropped frames

[keen cedar]

also make sure MO2 is actually looking in that folder

[cerulean hawk]

wrong reply, sorry

[modern grove]

whats your shadow map resolution set as?

[cerulean hawk]

lowest

[wise wren]

Ah okay will do so

[modern grove]

1536?

[cerulean hawk]

I've done the CPU Core 0 trick, I've set the priority in windows to real time, I've disabled full screen optimization

[cerulean hawk]

yes. I'm not coming at this without doing some serious investigation on my end

[modern grove]

maybe try to set it from realtime to high priority

[cerulean hawk]

realtime is the highest priority?

high is a downgrade

[modern grove]

is it deleting the shader cache that is changing the weather on reload?

or is there something else changing the weather on reload?

just GAMMA things

I've also checked so that the MO2 is looking for the proper folder

[void storm]

is it possible to enable the animation where my dude pulls out his backpack when I go into my inv

[tender forge]

Yes but also absolutely not
If you enable it, the game will crash constantly

[void storm]

why and how

[mystic nexus]

does it require a new save?

[tender forge]

!fdda

[raw raft]

This command is specific for a specific kind of crash, but it's good in any case to remember an important lesson:

If you enabled ANY FDDA animation, turn them all off.
Yes I'm talking about backpack, crouch, mutant loot and items pick up. It's causing your crash. I don't care what you think it is, it's FDDA. Turn that shit off.

The only thing you can keep enabled is the first option: Enable FDDA animations

[void storm]

😦

[sharp bough]

[tender forge]

iirc it shouldn't
It will take 48 hours for traders to refresh their stock, so the guns would appear in their list of items.

[tight mountain]

@tender forge I finally got the night mutant crash to stop! 🥹 I had to right click the mod on the list and reinstall it from there

[cinder rampart]

All my sss settings are off and I still have Depth of field when aiming?

[hexed jasper]

Hey guys! The installation instructions mention troubleshooting channel, but I can't seem to find it. Am I blind or is it not here anymore?

[tender forge]

You are in one

There's also #│🔧troubleshooting

That's the one mentioned in the guide, but I can't see it in the sidebar. Maybe it's because I'm still a Newcomer?

How do you disable Depth of Field after the recent update

[lost loom]

Does anyone know if the GAMMA addons are now part of the rc3? Because in this video it shows the actual addons (1st photo), but when I click the link in the 'how to install' section of the discrod, it pops up with only the rc3 (2nd photo)

[north turret]

hey guys I want to disable groks ballistic overhaul and possibly replace it because it makes the game extremely unrealistic when it comes to gunfights, when I disabled it in the modlist it crashed when I shot at a soldier.

any ideas on how to fix or what mod I can replace it with

[tender forge]

Disregard video
Follow #old-how-to-install

[lost loom]

Alright thank you

[hexed jasper]

Hmm, should I disregard the file size post in troubleshooting channel? 'Cause my file sizes are not correct at all it seems, and the Boomstick addon (the biggest one on the screenshot) is not even in the downloads folder.
I'm asking 'cause there might've been some updates that changed the file size and therefore made the screenshot in that post irrelevant.

[outer willow]

Thank you for your help. The game is working fine now and I would guess part of the problem on top of it being a temp folder was BitDefender did not have the temp folder as an exception and was causing issues as well.

[eternal harness]

Thanks Grim. Should I drop one of the suggested files here?

[tender forge]

Yes

[tender forge]

Looks like shader cache issue to me.

[eternal harness]

Yeah it happened so fast that I closed the popup before I could even realize the game closed lol

Didn't catch an SS of the error message

Delete shaders and try again I guess?

[vagrant sinew]

When i installed the first time it crashed at about 25% now when i try to download grok freezes here

[bronze raven]

is ther anybody that knows where to change the setting for screen space shaders cus it odst seem to work when i change the numbers in the for example settings_SSR script

[random smelt]

Hey i wanted to report a bug where your health would drain over time wich couldnt be healed via medkit or medic. i dont know what caused it but it feels like it could be the game thinking your character is bleeding out. it happened several times already and i have found no cure except reloading an older safe.

[hexed jasper]

So my install seems to be fcked for some reason and I have a question.
Do I absolutely have to install Anomaly and Gamma specifically in the root C/D:\Anomaly and C/D:\Gamma folders? No other filepath can be used?

[north turret]

what should i do?

[sharp bough]

it's best to have them in the Rood of the drive, don't matter which

[hexed jasper]

Ok, thanks.
Guess I'll do a full reinstall then.

Should I wait before doing that though? Not sure if I'm flagged as a bot right now.

I only clicked "Full install" button once though.

[sharp bough]

why are you reinstalling. You can move your folders

!move

[raw raft]

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

DON'T. USE. THEM.
DON'T.

Moving Anomaly:

1. Move your Anomaly folder to the new location
2. Go to your G.A.M.M.A folder
3. Delete the ModOrganizer.ini file. It should be below the ModOrganizer.exe application

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

1. Open your G.A.M.M.A. 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 G.A.M.M.A. folder to the new location

When you have finished moving everything to the new location:

1. Run the installer as admin
2. Click on 1. Allow Powershell scripts
3. Click on 2. Launch MO2
4. Select your Anomaly folder
5. Click on Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then click on Full G.A.M.M.A. installation

[hexed jasper]

My installation is screwed. Files are missing, sizes are incorrect, CTD at launch. I'm pretty sure moving stuff won't work.

1. Download the old BaS version:

Mirror 1: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19ttcqQ-iAxgmeZ0ufjYc2XEOb5y-T1lH/view?usp=sharing
Mirror 2 (only if first mirror is down): https://mega.nz/file/2JFXQAhR#ZPV7LkKuWba60Kkfjf1lOK0Zx-IqXHLDfeF-zBL7AO0

2)** Extract** what you downloaded wherever you want
3) Copy the gamedata folder you'll find inside
3) Open your GAMMA RC3 folder and go to GAMMA RC3/Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_addons
4) Create a new folder exactly named 76- Boomsticks and Sharpsticks - Mich
5) Paste the gamedata folder inside this newly created folder
6) Now go to GAMMA RC3/mods and look for a folder called 76- Boomsticks and Sharpsticks - Mich.
If you have this folder - delete it, if you don't have it - skip this step.
7) Launch the GAMMA installer with admin rights, press Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then Only install G.A.M.M.A. addons
8) If your issue isn't solved, press Download G.A.M.M.A. data and then Full GAMMA Installation in the installer.

[sharp bough]

that's the fix for the error you got

[bold wing]

Thank you! But why the hell did this start to happen? : O

[hexed jasper]

Ok, but the MO2 screenshot I posted doesn't really give full context to the crash.
Basically, I fucked up the last step of installation process by running "Anomaly launcher" instead of "Anomaly (DX11)" in MO2. I realized that after Anomaly Launcher popped up and didn't actually launch the game from there. I closed the launcher, launched MO2 again, selected "Anomaly (DX11)" option instead and then got the crash when trying to run it.
Could this be part of the issue as well?

[tender forge]

Do the fix

[hexed jasper]

Ok
