any red crosses

in the chat

[junior moon]

I will commit stab

[rotund pulsar]

Now that I want to see

[opaque hawk]

Okay, I'll check everything, then I'll write it off.

[terse jay]

i don’t know if thats necessary at this point, he added extra tasks mod, and its crahing because of a task

I mean

[rotund pulsar]

so?

oh XD

[cloud pecan]

@harsh robin

[junior moon]

Errhm.... if you deleted the .dll files and did the !k98 thing then try opening the vanilla game again

[rotund pulsar]

ok i ll try

[north fractal]

okay i have the installer

[junior moon]

Great, now do what Kolerder told you to do (bot message)

[terse jay]

363

[rotund pulsar]

anomaly vanilla worked for 5 seconds and now i have a black screen

[opaque hawk]

Give me a sec

[rotund pulsar]

but it runs

[terse jay]

wait thats good

[junior moon]

Define black screen, is it in the menu or in the game?

[terse jay]

!blackscreen

[raw raft]

Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[rotund pulsar]

in the game

after my alt tab I tred to reopen it and this popped up

[north fractal]

ok, done

i didnt change my keybinds so i only did the add-ons one

[opaque hawk]

Additional

[terse jay]

[junior moon]

So how many active mods do you have now?

[terse jay]

you should see that you have exactly 358 mods enabled

[rotund pulsar]

but I launched it from my folder

[north fractal]

yep, i do

[rotund pulsar]

not from MO2

how do you launch vanilla anomaly from MO2

?

[terse jay]

then you should be good, if you run into serious performance issues try #old-framerate-optimisation

[junior moon]

!dx8 Do this for potato pc:

[raw raft]

If you're playing (or if you want to play) with DX8, you'll need to do something first (this also applies to NVG): <#╭📖faq message>

[terse jay]

launch mo2, top right

[rotund pulsar]

i m in MO2 but how do I launch vanilla anomaly from there

?

how do I do from here?

[north fractal]

ok, done

so there should be no crashes now, right?

[terse jay]

more like if you crash now we can actually try to fix it

because youre using standart mods

[junior moon]

You can't.

[north fractal]

ok

[rotund pulsar]

how do I launch vanilla anomaly from MO2 then?

[north fractal]

lemme try going into the red forest again then and ill see what happens

oh and btw when i tab out and tab back into the game it crashes

[fair sluice]

i get this error that tells me the AnomalyLauncher.exe isn't found, the exe file is actually not where it specifies because the whole folder is in "F:\STALKER Gamma", i moved it there and changed it in MO2, but it seems like MO2 still tries to find the files in the old location and i don't know how to fix this
any help is appreciated

[terse jay]

sean left, and i dont know why he needed you to run vanilla

he probably meant anomaly with no mods i guess

[rotund pulsar]

yes

[terse jay]

you sont run it from mo2, go to the folder

[tender forge]

Close mo2
Go to gamma folder and delete modorganizer.ini file (its under the modorganizer.exe)
Run mo2 and guide it to the anomaly folder

[north fractal]

when i go into the red forest, it doesnt crash

so thats a good start

[terse jay]

the game should be good now minus the supposed terrible performance you told us about earlier

[rotund pulsar]

this popped up

[terse jay]

can you translate?

[north fractal]

yeah suprisingley its running the same as before

[rotund pulsar]

yep

[upper mist]

hey i ran into a issue that says this ERRORS:
Unexpected end of archive

ERROR: Data Error : MAIN FILES\gamedata\sounds\music\level\ambientmusicpack\accg_quiet_days_on_earth.ogg

i dont know if i should be concerned because its still downloading i think but very very slowly

[fair sluice]

thank you, that fixed that issue, but now the game crashes on startup with an error sound but no error showing

[terse jay]

!crash

[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.

!k98

[rotund pulsar]

The GPU device instance has been suspended. Use GetDeviceRemovedReason to determine the appropriate action.

that's what it said

[tender forge]

We broke a bot

[terse jay]

youre going straight for k98 i see

[rotund pulsar]

I think my pc is cursed for this game

[fair sluice]

this is the logs file of the crash

[azure pivot]

You ever fix this? I get a similar thing. Decent cpu and gpu so not sure why I hold 80fps but microstutter and 99% fps reports 36-50ish always

[tender forge]

!k98 ⬇️

[raw raft]

1) Go in this folder: [YOUR GAMMA FOLDER]\.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.

[terse jay]

can you check if the gamma uses integrated gpu when youre running it?

maybe with geforce overlay

or nvidia control panel

[rotund pulsar]

how do I do that?

[flint warren]

Someone know the mod that causes the weapon to disappear and not come back? I can't play the game because it keeps occuring.

[terse jay]

youre using nvidia right?

[rotund pulsar]

yes

[fair sluice]

this worked and the game launches now, thank you once again

[opaque hawk]

Yes, the problem is in the mod for additional tasks, after disabling it, the error disappeared. I put additional mods on the advice of streamers for the game. But for some reason, they didn’t have such troubles. Now everything works on the stock version, thanks.

[tender forge]

Yes

[terse jay]

you were right how about that

[upper mist]

May I post an error message here about a install problem? Or is that only in the other chat

[terse jay]

makes you wonder why k98 fix doesn't come pre applied with anomaly

[tender forge]

It does

Installer sometimes fails to apply it

[terse jay]

oh is that how it works, interesting

what if we just prepackaged it i wonder

[rotund pulsar]

wait, I have 2 monitors and my GPU is only used for the monitor who doesn't run gamma

[terse jay]

only need permission from 1 author

[rotund pulsar]

i ll try to lauch the game

[terse jay]

you may

[tender forge]

If you can start a new game without a crash
Go to #⏩start-confirm to remove your newcomer tag

[rotund pulsar]

oh, anomaly uses my GPU

[terse jay]

@tender forge do we have a bot command for checking if the game runs on integrated gpu?

because thats the next step here

[rotund pulsar]

nevermind

[tender forge]

It doesn't.
I know only of one person who got it running on igpu using dx8

[upper mist]

Mine is stuck on a certain mod and it keeps going very slowly should I. Let it go or just try and fix it. I did get an error messsge

[terse jay]

well ok then, its just that [REDACTED] tells me that is a first step

[terse jay]

what error message, screenshot it

[upper mist]

ERRORS:

[upper mist]

does that help

[terse jay]

yes

[junior badge]

hi all i played some time and i cant find kriss vector

who use it or what?

i only find ump

[tender forge]

Gameplay questions ask in #╓☢stalker-chat

[junior badge]

ok

[terse jay]

who is kriss

eksdee

[robust sky]

How long should it take to install Gamma? Just curious

[terse jay]

3 hours

or in other words

boo

it depends on your internet speed obviously, could be fast

[robust sky]

Alright, I've got pretty bung internet so probably 3 to 4 hours

[rotund pulsar]

well, I give up on playing with Gamma

I ll just play regular anomaly because it works

Thank you helpers for all of your help it was very kind of you to give me some of your time

[drifting ivy]

any way to get nv to work on dx 8?

[upper mist]

Fixed it. I forgot to run as administrator after I fixed my issue before that

Running smoothly

[crimson vapor]

Ayo which button is it so I can bring the PDA closer to my face, i'm fuckin blind as hell lmao

[clear vale]

Quick question, this is the right amount of shaders for the Gamma reshade file, right?

I'm asking because I'm pushing an edit to the Linux PC installation guide which fixes the lack-of-fancy-shaders issue

[covert dirge]

Hello! The "2560x1440" resolution option is not showing on my settings menu... Anyone knows whats going on?

[clear vale]

Could you take a screenshot of your Display Settings in Windows on top of your in-game resolution options?

So that you can see both at the same time

[covert dirge]

like that?

[clear vale]

Oh, your gamma cannot use a higher screen resolution than what your monitor is currently using. So you would have to close gamma, set your Windows screen resolution to 2560x1440, and then restart gamma

[covert dirge]

i see! ty

[clear vale]

Yeah because it would make Gamma so big that you would not be able to click on 40% of the game anymore, so generally games and such only let you use 100% of your Windows display resolution

[solid goblet]

Sup fellas, i want to install ''Anomaly HD Models Addons'', it will work on GAMMA?

[clear vale]

Also, do the emissions warp people to hell intentionally now? I'm wondering if that's my new shader setup, or if it's just part of gamma

[clear vale]

It should technically work, but please ask in #🔨modded-gamma-support . That is where people can help you with edits to your modlist setup

I don't know the specifics, someone in there should for sure (and have some heated opinions, naturally)

[solid goblet]

thanks brother !

[clear vale]

Yw

I think this is fairly normal when you light it, on my end it lit up like a flashbang, I think they know it's a bug or something

[fallen anvil]

Anyone else sounds randomly stutter and cut out?

[agile comet]

how do i replace my barrel it says "cannot be switchout in the field"

[weary ferry]

use workshop

[fallen anvil]

You need the proper toolkit and repair kit to do so. Right click the gun and go to details and it will show you which repair kit you need. Keep in my mind you have to have a toolkit or it will not work unless you swap it out directly with the repair kit using "Maintain Parts"

[weary ferry]

open your PDA, guide, there's a lot of things in there

[lucid pollen]

Guys, i'm new to the Stalker series. Downloaded GAMMA today after playing Anomaly and I cant get my radiation OFF me. I keep taking damage even if my "rad bar" on the inventory seems empty (No white bars showing), after several beers/vodkas

[hazy linden]

anyone encounter some bad stuttering? Im on an i7-12700k with 3080ti and its been happening fairly often

[fallen anvil]

Go into MO2, go under gamma fixes, then select the box that says "Turn this on if you stutter", Open ANOMALY launcher, delete shader cache, use 1536 shadow map, save settings. Yes you need to close, also use nvidia control panel turn off vsync in there and in the game and use the FPS limiter in control panel to set your maxed frame rate

[hazy linden]

I'm assuming I need to save and close before doing so?

[robust sky]

The installer was unable to create a shortcut, how do I do it manually?

[hazy linden]

legend

[fallen anvil]

I get almost no stutters and have 150+ fps on every map with graphics settings maxed out and my set up is not as good as yours

[foggy relic]

Came here from the other channel. running into a consistent crash during the Northern Hospitality mission in Limansk, every time i cross under the concrete wall behind the construction site

[brisk zinc]

!shortcut

[raw raft]

The installer didn't create a shortcut for G.A.M.M.A.: #╭📖faq message

[brisk zinc]

Cap

I've read this stuff at least 20 times, every time it was cap, it's just not possible

[fallen anvil]

LOL okay

[terse jay]

admited to lying live in 4k

[fallen anvil]

set the max to 144 and this is what im at average

get fucked

[weary ferry]

Could you share your graphic setting?

[fallen anvil]

In game or reshade?

[weary ferry]

in game

Some options are confuse

[fallen anvil]

Every thing is maxed except for grass, render distance is 150, size 0.7, grass shadows on but I would still recommend keeping it off and setting your render distance lower and move the density slider down a bit from default

I also keep actor shadow off but other than that every slider is maxed out with all options turned on

I use HBAO instead of SSDO because I have an Nvidia gpu

[weary ferry]

Yes, What is SSDO HBAO thing

and sun rays slide? Do you max that too?

[fallen anvil]

its an ambient occlusion setting for shadows

[prime fulcrum]

@hazy linden #⏩start-confirm

[fallen anvil]

I keep the intensity of sun rays default

[weary ferry]

OK, I will have a try

Thanks!

[foggy relic]

5th attempt, cannot progress past the construction site

[brisk zinc]

except

except

graphics settings maxed out

Get fucked

[fallen anvil]

Have fun at 50 fps (:

[brisk zinc]

Just stating the truth here

[vernal spear]

im having an issue with companion inventory his weight limit is full and i gave him items to carry for me such an exosuit and an m4 tactical but when i go into his inventory to grab them theres nothing there i understand they are in his "secret inventory" and show up if he dies but not while hes alive. ive tried using 220 companion item fix and a separate mod to fix but neither have worked any insight is much appreciated

[brisk zinc]

That's not maxed out

[foggy relic]

okay

[brisk zinc]

The day you'll have grass, I'll get fucked

Till that day, cap

And I perfectly know you can't have grass but I just hate reading "maxed out" when it's clearly a blatant lie

[cyan halo]

anyone else experiencing slow download speeds when "full Gamma installation" in the EU?

like, hole shit... 30 minutes and still not even half way through

[brisk zinc]

Could be everything

Your internet connection, Moddb

The mirror you're using

[cyan halo]

yeah, I've selected the mirror to EU 126, still really slow

[fallen anvil]

dm me doc I have a fix for that

[pure pelican]

I have a small problem and maybe someone can help me out? I usually crash when I kill certain people. For example I nearly killed the entire military on the agroprom map, but when I get into their base and kill what I believe to be the "commander" or "boss" or whatver you call him the game instant crashes. I tried it twice and both times instant crash. Am I not supposed to kill military guys? They instantly fire on me so naturally I fired back. Btw same thing happens on other map. Btw I have a hard time figuring out who are friends and who foes. Usually I fire back at people that shoot me, but I got a radio message that my standing with the faction lowered. So I assume I could be friends with t hem. How would I become friendly with a faction?

[fallen anvil]

you can install all the add ons before you start the gamma installation and it will save you from having to download them all one by one from modDB

[languid tangle]

i need help

[brisk zinc]

You can report your stuff in here if you want, it's all good "feedback" towards good FPS for everybody

If you can manage to get EVERYTHING maxed in Rostok (The Freedom base is there, right?) I'll eat my hat, because that place is one of the most badly optimised and you just can't have grass there, it's impossible

There are places where you can get 100+ FPS, Great Swamps for istance, but many places are FPS "friendly"

But you just can't have everything maxed, it's impossible, grass will always be low

[terse jay]

He's running Gamma on nuclear reactor

[brisk zinc]

I would honestly believe that over the "everything maxed"

I have really read it too many times not to believe it

[terse jay]

The grass slider is a gpu self destruct button btw

Real gamers don't touch grass anyways

Btw Falco my role is fucked and doesn't give me slowmode immunity pls haelp

[brisk zinc]

I know, I can read

I don't know why you have this problem

[terse jay]

I can;t be literally the first one to be experiencing it bruh

DIscord is a scam

[fallen anvil]

exactly its common knowledge that the grass sliders tank fps, I thought it was obvious what I meant by maxed out, I still get 135-144fps in rostok and every other non fps friendly location especially faction bases

[brisk zinc]

At this point share your settings if you haven't done already because the whole server is curious
Also share GPU and CPU

[fallen anvil]

it has to do with a lot more than just your in game settings

[terse jay]

when you set your game to run on core -1

[fallen anvil]

there are some A life optimizations you can make in mod organizer 2 that deal with the switch distance that help a ton, have v sync turned off in game and in nvidia control panel with the fixed refresh rate option on set to your monitors refresh rate

[limpid field]

Bad?

[brisk zinc]

!verify

[raw raft]

YOU'RE NOT PLAYING ANOMALY VANILLA. THIS IS A MOD PACK, REMEMBER?
Don't verify stuff with the Anomaly Launcher, you're using Mod Organizer.

[limpid field]

How do I launch the game then?

[brisk zinc]

...with Mod Organizer?

[limpid field]

just click run?

[brisk zinc]

Choose a DX and then click run

[mellow terrace]

hey guys this may seem dumb

but I downloaded everything a while ago and I frgot how the client is called

[brisk zinc]

[terse jay]

"a life optimisations in mod organiser 2 that deal with switch distance" you mean the Turn this on if you stutter mod?

[brisk zinc]

Or at this point you could do this

!shortcut

[raw raft]

The installer didn't create a shortcut for G.A.M.M.A.: #╭📖faq message

[brisk zinc]

Create a shortcut again so you don't miss it

[fallen anvil]

No, you manually go into the a life optimization and change the switch distance lmao

[fallen anvil]

Also make sure auto switch is set to false

[terse jay]

The expected framerate in Rostok is 60 fps at a good day, just changing autoswitch won't double it my man, something else is happening there

[fallen anvil]

alright let me show you

[terse jay]

Is it 60 fps with auto switch?

Watch litterally 100% of framerate optimisation problems being the fucking autoswitch

I swear to god

[brisk zinc]

My main problem with GAMMA is stutter and, well, wonky framerate

[fallen anvil]

nope I will without a doubt get atleast 130-144fps no problem

[brisk zinc]

I can reach that kind of FPS as well, the problem is to maintain that kind of FPS

[mellow terrace]

Somhow I still cant find modOrganiser idk what happend but thanks anyways

[terse jay]

I strongly suspect the reason its this high is because he stands completely stilll for several seconds to check his fps

are you using geforce? there is an overlay with fps counter

im curious what it is when youre actually moving/shooting enemies

[fallen anvil]

Of course it drops a tiny bit during huge gunfights and stuff but I never notice it

if I can figure out how to record the gameplay Ill show you

[terse jay]

drops a tiny bit

to 15

[fallen anvil]

Yall mf keep doubting me and ive proved you wrong everytime lol

why would I lie about the fps I get?

[terse jay]

I wonder why we are doubting you, maybe because this is a 300k people server and we told every single one of them that average of 60 fps is the best they can hope for

[fallen anvil]

thats so fucking dumb lmao

[limpid field]

What I do?

[fallen anvil]

you can go on youtube right now and see people getting far far beyond 60 fps lol

[terse jay]

yes, because they are youtubers

[fallen anvil]

jesus christ lol they dont have access to some crazy hardware we dont

[terse jay]

anyways im not going to teach you what average pc user looks like, just tell me if it was 144 fps when you first launched it and started playing

or did you do something specific

[fallen anvil]

omw to rostok to show you lol

[limpid field]

What did I do wrong?

[terse jay]

nothing yet wait

[limpid field]

Ok sorry

I’m not as high today so it’ll be easier I hope

[north turret]

I downloaded all of the mods but literally none of them were enabled like the last time I had it installed

[terse jay]

!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

[fallen anvil]

I have a 5900x and a 3080, its still the changes I made that increased fps though because when I first installed gamma it ran like shit

[terse jay]

i wonder what 3080 users call "like shit"

is it 60 fps? or 30

[north turret]

less than 120 FPS

I know some people who refuse to play in 30 FPS because it hurts their eyes lmao

[fallen anvil]

yeah lol 60 because thats what fps was capped at

[terse jay]

So you turned off vsync

And it became 144, makes sense

[prime fulcrum]

...you do realise that by doing this you're putting all the NPCs out of the switch zone radius into the offline mode?

You literally won't hear gunfights farther than the distance that you'll set it to, because NPCs won't be even there

#1061663181472272494 message

[fallen anvil]

It depends on what distance you set it to

[prime fulcrum]

And what distance did you set it to

[fallen anvil]

mine is 2000

[north turret]

It didn't work

[terse jay]

bruh

[brisk zinc]

Yeah I was thinking about that, talking about switch and all

[fallen anvil]

default is 350

[prime fulcrum]

Wait what the fuck

You just maxxed it out?

[terse jay]

Damn dude that 3080 is staring to look very buyable right about now

[limpid field]

i open stalker and it says i have an update but i cnat read it fast enough

[fallen anvil]

it doesnt make sense I know, you would assume more online objects = tank fps but thats not the case. A guy on a obscure stalker forum recommended this and I tried it out low and behold my game runs really well idk

[prime fulcrum]

ignore

[open oar]

does weapon quality matter in anyway when given to a follower?

[prime fulcrum]

@willow hawk

That same guy claims he helped grok with the alife something or another

ctd any time i get close to the transition from limansk to hospital

[molten mason]

what do you need madi

ooh is it about changing the value on the stutter fix ?

[terse jay]

yes

[prime fulcrum]

We need to see if setting auto_switch_distance_start in \GAMMA\mods\Turn this on if you stutter\gamedata\configs alife.ltx to 2000 will help your fps

[molten mason]

ok on that issue its a yes and a no

[versed tusk]

depends on hardware

[molten mason]

it can help on some pcs
but

its not a 100% fix

[fallen anvil]

it's under the a life optimization in file explorer

[molten mason]

its mostly confirmation bias
however it does work for some users

its a very hardware dependent thing

in some cases it can reduce stutters

[fallen anvil]

like I said idk if that's why my game runs well or not, I just made the change after seeing a guy online talk about it and I haven't noticed the drops I was getting in fps before I did that

[molten mason]

yeah

[fallen anvil]

I do have high end hardware though so hard to tell

[molten mason]

because swapping a npc to online takes a bit

and thats why it stutters sometimes

[fallen anvil]

I always assumed people with intel cpus would run the game better

[molten mason]

specially when you get close to npc heavy hubs

[fallen anvil]

clock speed and all of that, I have always said to myself lowering stalker population in bases would help everyone's fps

[molten mason]

i have tried it
it is a smoother experience

however
the general performance on low end pcs will suffer

setting it to 2k range is better if your pc is good

[fallen anvil]

I mean anyone can get really solid fps if they are willing to sacrifice the way the game looks lol but finding a way to do so without doing that seems pretty difficult without significantly changing the spawn rates of npcs

[molten mason]

npcs and stashes are real resource hogs

[north turret]

All of the mods are still disabled for me in MO2, I tried every way listed on the server and nothing has worked yet.

[molten mason]

mostly stashes tbh

[terse jay]

Let me clear this up, you ran into the issue of fps being capped at 60
You went and both changed switch distance to 2000 AND at the same time turned vsync off
Then your fps became 144
And you claim the performance improved because of switch distance?

[fallen anvil]

Oh really? I never would have guessed that

[molten mason]

yeah stashes also have to swap to offline depending on the range

and if they are loaded
this will tank your performance

[worn elbow]

Yeah you can get MASSIVE stutters approaching your created base

Even on good hardware

[molten mason]

on this pc i run the game at 120 fps

once i get to my base it drop to 67

[fallen anvil]

I have nvidia controlling my fps limit, using the fixed refresh rate setting set to 144 fps and vsync turned off in nvidia control panel and in game

[molten mason]

then it just dances between 100 and 80

[terse jay]

but it wasn't off when you first launched the game right?

[fallen anvil]

I play in 1920 x 1080 though

[terse jay]

it wasn't set to that the first time

[terse jay]

the time when you experienced shit performance before going to fix it these nvidia settings wasn't applied yet?

[terse jay]

!default should work, i went and checked it right now, doing that enables any mod i untick

[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

[fallen anvil]

yes, that was just gamma running normally

[north turret]

It didn't work for me, honestly.

[terse jay]

Well let me solve this mystery for good, you launched the game for the first time it was hard capped to 60 fps, you called it shit performance, you went in your nvidia panel, and, among other settings, turned vsync off which means no more 60 fps cap

that what fixed it for you, that and you having 3080

[fallen anvil]

vsync option turned off in nvidia control panel as well and the in game fps limiter set to 144 just to make sure lol

[terse jay]

yes

[soft leaf]

what the fuck happened

[terse jay]

nothing?

[molten mason]

its the change the stutter fix range from 350 to 2000 again

[terse jay]

we for a second thought that turning a life swithc distance to 2000 can double fps

[molten mason]

i just tried it on my game

[terse jay]

but what actually doubled it was changing fps cap from 60 to 144

[molten mason]

i lost 20 fps

[fallen anvil]

My fps barely changed

[molten mason]

[timber owl]

is this stash/npc loading thing possibly the reason I ctd in the north of dark valley 100% of the time?

[terse jay]

skill issue

[molten mason]

see this is why i told you its unique per pc

[soft leaf]

ah i play with 1k on switch and it runs WAY WAY better than the usual 3m that gamma has

it depends on a lot of things

[terse jay]

i believe you, but it should have, are you sure you actually have mods to enable? there are mods listed in mo2 right?

[north turret]

Every mod is there, it's all downloaded, but every single one is disabled and I have no way of knowing which ones need to be enabled.

[fallen anvil]

I thought I noticed a difference when I changed mine to 2k seemed to stutter even less but who knows what caused it. The biggest change i've found is simply capping your fps without using vsync

[terse jay]

launch the installer as admin, press download gamma data, press only install gamma addons, screenshot the installer window and send it here

[molten mason]

its on the #old-framerate-optimisation to cap your fps for best performance

[sharp remnant]

Hello, i am new here and have a problem, any clue what happened?

[terse jay]

hidden threat monkas

[fallen anvil]

they need to adjust the wording, it says set it to 60 fps and a shit load of people can run a way higher refresh rate

[molten mason]

its mostly for potatoes

[north turret]

I just noticed there are a couple errors. I'm not a computer person but I can kind of understand. If this is super obvious and an easy fix I'm sorry for my ignorance.

I figured MO2 can't find a path to the game or something

[sharp remnant]

What does that mean?

[fallen anvil]

i've played on a potato damn near my entire life, got sick of it and just built this rig lmao

[terse jay]

your rig is built to fight gods

apparently

i wonder how high your fps goes without a cap

[fallen anvil]

buys 3080.. 40 series launches a 3 months later

[terse jay]

fucking infinite fps

[molten mason]

from a 1050ti to a 3060 with a brand new cpu

[foggy relic]

finally got a decent log

[terse jay]

it means you have 355 mods active on your screenshot, explain yourself

[fallen anvil]

honest to god if you mainly just game go intel 100% sure ryzen is great and all but as someone who has had 5 ryzen cpu's and a handful of intel cpu's I would no question rebuild this pc if I could with an intel cpu

[fallen anvil]

DId either of you try the gamma patches?

[sharp remnant]

I followed a youtube guide on how to install gamma and followed each step

[fallen anvil]

I have reinstalled 3 times and couldnt even run the game without installing them lol

[terse jay]

He is a tester, so i assume he tried everything that is possible or not

[terse jay]

which step had you disable 3 mods

[fallen anvil]

the latest gamma has 358 right?

[terse jay]

!default do this either way

[terse jay]

yes

maybe he just hasn't updated in a while

[fallen anvil]

my game literally would not launch without those patches, he should reinstall and use those

[terse jay]

what patches are you talking right now

we have a lot of patches ready to be deployed at different errors, im not sure what you are referring to right now

[terse jay]

!k98

[raw raft]

1) Go in this folder: [YOUR GAMMA FOLDER]\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches

[fallen anvil]

that

couldn't run game without them all 3 times on a fresh install

[terse jay]

maybe that, most likely that, but that won't fix him having 3 less mods for some reason

[fallen anvil]

thats why I would say fuck it and just start over lol

[cyan halo]

hey @terse jay what are those 3 patch folder for? I followed a guide on youtube, but the guy didnt tell what they are, just that they fix game not starting apparently

[sinful dust]

if Gamma.installer.exe wasn't able to download everything the first try does download gamma data and full gamma installation just download what files are left?

[terse jay]

they are to fix game not starting

thats their purpose

there isn't much more to it really

[fallen anvil]

they work tho lol

[terse jay]

yes

[cyan halo]

right, so if my game starts without applying them, then no need to do anything right?

[terse jay]

correct

[cyan halo]

sweet ❤️

[terse jay]

if it aint broken

[fallen anvil]

I really wish there was an instruction for new players under "how to install" for how to install your downloads without pulling them from moddb 1 by 1

it literally saves hours of time

[upper mist]

hey um

[versed tusk]

[upper mist]

i cant launch gamma

[terse jay]

what

[upper mist]

i have everything and anomoly avx dvx11

[terse jay]

you mean the #old-how-to-install

[fallen anvil]

yeah

[fallen anvil]

I had to find out how online

[terse jay]

im not following, did you download all mods in a sigle package?

[cyan halo]

😮

[terse jay]

you installed everything right? then post a crashlog

[terse jay]

!crash

[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.

[fallen anvil]

you can just copy all the add ons from this archive in 7zip and move them over to the gamma downloads folder and then start your gamma installation, it literally cuts the time in half maybe even more

[terse jay]

oh gotcha, the old and outdated method of downloading

right

[sharp remnant]

Hi again, i placed the patches and did the install only gamma addons thing and its the same error. I am guessing the next step is to re install the whole thing?

[fallen anvil]

Its so much better than the current method though by a long shot

[terse jay]

yeah just tell me who distributes that archive "online" whatever that means

imma go shoot him

that is actually fucking illegal, the bastards

[fallen anvil]

Anyways, i'll stop bloating up the chat so these people can get the help they need. Have a good night man

[brisk zinc]

Good night as soon as we ask to snitch

[fallen anvil]

idek what that means lol

[versed tusk]

ofc not

[upper mist]

im on the mod orginizer screen for gamma i selected dx11 avx and it loadds but then crashes on startup

[versed tusk]

[brisk zinc]

He's asking where did you get that zip, because it's an old thing we used to have

[upper mist]

i dont even see title screen

[fallen anvil]

oh I thought it came from gamma?

I haven't pulled it from anywhere else lol

[brisk zinc]

Let's change the question then, where did you get it?

[fallen anvil]

in fact a guy I helped earlier had the same folder

[terse jay]

it did, and then it stopped coming from Gamma, FOR A REASON

[fallen anvil]

Oh idk I downloaded gamma forever ago so its probably from when I first installed it

[terse jay]

like 3 month ago

[fallen anvil]

its literally in a yt tutorial on how to install gamma, it just comes with the gamma files

[brisk zinc]

Can you send the tutorial then?

[fallen anvil]

or used to anyway

yeah ill try to find it hold up

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQl2gkl_3-c&ab_channel=GaryFox look at the top pinned comment, thats how I figured it out

[terse jay]

ITS TIME BOYS

[fallen anvil]

who gives a fuck it came from gamma lol

[brisk zinc]

Nah the link is not there

[somber edge]

Game just CTD, saw this error that I haven't seen before. Anyone know of a solution?

[fallen anvil]

oh you mean to get that archive?

[brisk zinc]

You're not getting what we're talking about, I'll explain very quickly

Yes

The archive

The archive was a momentary thing

[fallen anvil]

dm me if you can

[brisk zinc]

Not a forever fix

[fallen anvil]

^that yes

[terse jay]

ok what does he actually mean tho, did that actually work when we had archive

[brisk zinc]

Yes, the top comment doesn't have that archive

[fallen anvil]

you just copy that archive into your downloads folder before you start installation

[brisk zinc]

IIRC that was the procedure, like, what you needed to do

[terse jay]

you can't have that archive now, its gone

nuked

[fallen anvil]

but a lot of people still have it

[terse jay]

[terse jay]

how many mods did you enable/disable?

[somber edge]

The only mods I've disabled are those for framerate optimization as well as YACS and fast travel limitations.

[terse jay]

Trick question, the correct answer is none, this is a default-modlist-support

If you prioritise not crashing my way of fixing it would be to go back to default and check again

If you intend to stick with this modlist go #🔨modded-gamma-support

[somber edge]

Lol I took it as haven't added additional mods. My bad

[gilded skiff]

hello...i have downloaded everything, launched the game and played a bit,,,but this time when on MOD2...i noticed my ACTIVE MOD number is 0

am i not actually playing or enjoying teh Gamma mod pack and just playing anomaly?

is there a basic profile i can download that will enable the good and suggested mods?

[terse jay]

so you are just playing anomaly

[gilded skiff]

i knew i was dumb

[terse jay]

how is your experience with GAMMA

anyways launch the installer as admin

[gilded skiff]

YESum

done

[terse jay]

press download gamma data

[gilded skiff]

le dun

says up to date

[terse jay]

now press Full Gamma installation

[gilded skiff]

okay thats running

[terse jay]

this is gonna take some real time

[gilded skiff]

okay...so that will check everything and get back to normal?

[terse jay]

it should install any mods you are missing

[gilded skiff]

understood

[terse jay]

and check them in mo2

from what you told me it might be all of the mods

might take hours

[gilded skiff]

yeah so i have like 421 mods in MOD2

i just dont think any of them are actually enabled

[terse jay]

what

this is a random number right

[gilded skiff]

yes

absolutely i got alot

[fallen anvil]

I do have a question real quick

[terse jay]

Doesn't sound quick to me

Ask

[fallen anvil]

is there a way to change font size in game

[terse jay]

uhhh

[fallen anvil]

without changing resolution

[terse jay]

thats a very quick question, slow down

no

[fallen anvil]

okay lol

[young dew]

downloaded Anomaly..played it for 2 hrs..died 10 times to wildlife like cats and dogs..while killing tons of bandits with no problem..uninstalled right away 👎

[terse jay]

and?

Skill issue

[compact parrot]

my game starts loading then immediately crashes with no error

[sharp remnant]

hello again, came to say that installing again actually worked, and wanted to thank you for helping my dumbass

[terse jay]

never mind

[terse jay]

what just happened

whered it go

[compact parrot]

ill try that

[hushed vault]

Anyway to turn off the depth of field effect when using an item?

[prime fulcrum]

!dof

Also go to #⏩start-confirm

[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

Shaders Cumulative Pack for GAMMA has to be enabled in MO2, otherwise the SSS settings won't be visible.

[hushed vault]

you guys are lifesavers

[terse jay]

🛟

[sharp rampart]

!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

[terse jay]

#🤖bot-commands is a channel for commands

[sharp rampart]

ak ok

I'm getting busy hands all of a sudden with items that animate

[terse jay]

when did you last update gamma

approximately

pulls out a calculator

ok ill make it easier, was it 3 months ago?

[sharp rampart]

I updated gamma add-ons today

[terse jay]

before you caught busyhands?

[sharp rampart]

after

[terse jay]

and before that?

[sharp rampart]

hmm, probably a couple months yueah

[terse jay]

brurb

you can fix busyhands out of the game, but you can't fix busyhands out of people playing the game

!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.

[terse jay]

actually it says if you have stutter fix

so youre probably gonna have to load a save where you don't have any of the bugs

[sharp rampart]

that did fix it

[terse jay]

gaming

[sharp rampart]

Hope I didn't make it sound like I had the bug for a long time, this is a new issue so I wasnt just playing a long time with the bug

[hoary whale]

Hello people, I need your help, when I try to start a game I get the following error, even if I start new games, what can I do?

[terse jay]

!152 thats what

[raw raft]

You haven't updated to 1.5.2, that's why you're seeing this error.
If you already updated to 1.5.2 and still having problems, it means you did something wrong.

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.

any chance it's bugged and that's why I can't find it?

If you're crashing with the following error: gamedata\scripts\z_beefs_nvgs.script:561: attempt to call method 'GetZoomType' (a nil value)

1. Make sure you have the latest G.A.M.M.A. installer, version 3.8. If you don't have it: #📢announcements message
2. Open the installer with admin rights
3. Click on Download GAMMA data
4. Open your GAMMA RC3 folder
5. Go here: .Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_patches/bin and copy-paste the .exe files to your Anomaly folder inside the bin folder

hello, the minutes have passed, and now this comes out...
what am I supposed to do? wait more ?

So I told my companions to wait at some point and then changed maps without making them follow again

[marble whale]

My SR-25 looks like a nerf gun. Please help

Now they’re missing and I don’t know how to fire or kill them

Full GAMMA Installation does NOT remove saves, nor does it mean you are redownloading everything and it won't delete anything at all.

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.

!solving

[raw raft]

If your installer is stuck and you can read "Instruction solving..." at the bottom, follow this:

1. Close the installer
2. Go to your C:/Windows/System32 and look for a file called Robocopy.exe
3. Copy this file and paste it in GAMMA RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/resources.
4. Remove Robocopy_10.exe from this folder and rename your recently pasted Robocopy.exe to Robocopy_10.exe
5. Relaunch the installer with admin rights, it should be fixed.

when did you try it

[harsh glen]

I was trying to fix an error with a reinstall and now when i load a save i get this message

[harsh surge]

last night but I think it gave more just now when i did the full install again. Im in the game now it says 358 / 358

some mods have red x. does that mean it didnt work right?

no valid game data

how can mods be active but also say no valid game data?

[harsh surge]

yeah i feel like half the mods are missing data or dont work. I think every time you install youre going to be missing some amount of textures or mods.

i think when you download you have to connect to each mod from mod db and if the servers are overloaded it may skip some downloads

[harsh glen]

it says i have 417

[harsh surge]

screenshot it

You haven't updated to 1.5.2, that's why you're seeing this error.
If you already updated to 1.5.2 and still having problems, it means you did something wrong.

2. Open the zip, you'll see 4 folders and a text file

4. DRAG AND DROP the content of this archive inside your Anomaly folder
5. OVERWRITE everything when asked to do so

Thank you. Instructions on changing the mirror to 127?

[next stirrup]

Thanks, wasnt sure how to "validate" my mod/gamefiles. Will try that and hope it fixes it!

[tender forge]

!default do the modlist part first

[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

[tender forge]

!mags then this if you played the game with mags redux.
Or start a new game if you wish to play without this mod (because otherwise you won't be able to launch your savefile)

[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 in Settings > Controls > Bindings
5) After successfully following all steps, you need to Left-Alt + left click the magazine to add to your loadout, before a reload can work
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 just disable the mod in your current save file and call it a day. Your game will crash. To remove Mags Redux you'll HAVE to remove them from your save file with this addon, follow EVERY STEP: <#🖇old-mods-posting message>

[raw raft]

1) Close MO2

How many active mods does it say you have?
And did you enable mags redux mod?
Because like i said, if you don't wish to play with mags mod... You will have to start a new game

[harsh glen]

I did enable it I enable all 417 to check if it would give me that error again ( disabling the reload mod you mentioned)

[tender forge]

Why do you keep enabling them all

It should be 358 active yet you purposely keep enabling them all

[shell kraken]

It kindda worked

[harsh glen]

Oh, I didnt know that, i must have missed the mod activation portion

Kinda but you're missing 1/3 of the mods

yeah with the influx of people joining it makes sense

well im just gonna do a fresh reinstall later then cause it seems like that would be better at this point

Hey does anyone know how to fix mags not being avaliable from traders?

[pearl wasp]

Hey guys so i just imported the whole anomaly and gamma folders to a different directory and (ofc) it has problems, mainly because the mo2 couldn't found the files in the previous directory, how can i fix this?

[tender forge]

Close mo2
Go to your gamma folder and delete modorganizer.ini (its under the exe file)
Launch mo2 and guide it to the anomaly folder

[tender forge]

Check if you are blocked from accessing https://www.moddb.com/
If yes then wait for the indicated time + 40 minutes.
Or use vpn.

Then do exactly this:

1. Disable antivirus temporarily
2. Open GAMMA installer as admin
3. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. data"
4. Change ModDB download mirror from Default to 128 or 127
5. Click "Full G.A.M.M.A. installation"
   Don't delete anything

[sweet magnet]

👍 TY

[pearl wasp]

Ive got two of them, should i delete them both or choose one of them?

[hidden yarrow]

So I discovered the solution/cause, unless it was a complete fluke.
Bringing in companions to X-16 does indeed cause the game to crash, as when I sent them away and entered on my own, there was no crashing.
So this is probably something that should be looked at, so that people can bring their companions in there.

[tender forge]

Why do you have both?
Guide it to the one you used during gamma installation

[pearl wasp]

No I'm talking about the ini file

But it seems that im talking about the wrong one

Since deleting two of those files doesn't do anything to the mo2

[tender forge]

What did you even delete?

[pearl wasp]

If i may ask what is exactly the path to the file you're talking? Because i cant find an exe folder in my gamma folder

[tender forge]

Screenshot the whole folder using win key + shift + s

[pearl wasp]

Will do in a sec

here is my whole gamma folder

[bleak tiger]

got some problems with lighting, any idea how to fix it?

[tender forge]

There's a third file that's just called modorganizer (white icon)
Delete 3 of them and then launch mo2

[pearl wasp]

ohhh i see

i think thats why, will try to delete that

[tender forge]

Or rather just delete that one, and keep 2 that you highlighted in the picture.

[pearl wasp]

alrighty

Hey 😄 I just wanted to ask, because it started to become annoying - is there any option to make foggy weather appear less frequently? 🤔 Every other time I go from map to map the weather suddenly changes to a fog. In settings it's set up as default - 3 hours duration and rare occurance. But in spite of this it seems to happen very often. I did not change any mods nor and I have the newest available GAMMA version. Thank you for help in advance 😄

[dry ice]

anyone know this issue? my water shaders are broken af

[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

[quasi heart]

ah my bad

[umbral hawk]

My games started crashing a lot all of a sudden. Dont have a lot of items, nothing really happened recently in game either that I can thing of. Didnt have an issue for 20+ hours but now its a crash around 5-10 minutes of playing.

Cant even close the game after either, its like a partial crash. Only way to get the game to close is clicking shutdown and forcing my PC to close it for me. Task manager appears but it shows up BEHIND the game and cant be accessed, so I have to use that solution.

[narrow sparrow]

!crash send the log.

[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.

[narrow sparrow]

Also make task manager be always on top so you dont have to shutdown your pc

[dry ice]

fixed by myself

[umbral hawk]

Going to grab the log now, also didnt even know that was a thing appreciate that a lot.

[narrow sparrow]

Is this right after the crash?

[umbral hawk]

Thats the only file I have in there besides a BKP file.
I did just launch the game again after posting OG message, not sure if that overrides the previous log or not.

If it does I'll just play until it crashes again and send that log before launching.

[narrow sparrow]

The log gets overwritten each time you press run. Play until it crashes then send it again

[umbral hawk]

Alrighty, thanks guys!

[tender forge]

@narrow sparrow bet it will be missing weapon file?

As long as its not a suspended gpu or empty stack trace

Try running Mo2 as admin.

[tidal stream]

Same issue

[narrow sparrow]

The only 'fix' we have that might work is reinstalling anomaly on a different location.

[tidal stream]

What if I only have the one drive lol

Should I do a fresh Install of both?

[umbral hawk]

Crashed again

Did not launch again after crash, just chillin at desktop.

[wraith sparrow]

My game started crashing with no errors on screen. Wouldn't be a big deal since it's a very rare, but now it's crashing right after loading so I'm kinda bricked. Any ideas? I can send the log I guess

[thin pivot]

does anyone know why my game is so pixelated i deleted the shader cahche to get rid of black screen idk if it had something to do with it

[umbral hawk]

Lmao just tried again and crashed within 2 minutes.

[thin pivot]

like this

[narrow sparrow]

Reinstall anomaly but put it on a different folder this time.

[narrow sparrow]

send that log aswell

[dry ice]

Activate FXAA, Chromatic aberration and stuff like that.

If you want smooth pixels.

[thin pivot]

where

[dry ice]

Shade settings

and in anomaly settings

[tidal stream]

Once I do how do I replace the Instance? been a few months since ive messed with Mo2

[toxic remnant]

!nvg

[raw raft]

If you're crashing with the following error: gamedata\scripts\z_beefs_nvgs.script:561: attempt to call method 'GetZoomType' (a nil value)

1. Make sure you have the latest G.A.M.M.A. installer, version 3.8. If you don't have it: #📢announcements message
2. Open the installer with admin rights
3. Click on Download GAMMA data
4. Open your GAMMA RC3 folder
5. Go here: .Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_patches/bin and copy-paste the .exe files to your Anomaly folder inside the bin folder

[narrow sparrow]

delete the Modorganizer.ini fille from the gamma folder

[thin pivot]

like do i start anomaly without mods and turn them on????

[narrow sparrow]

Are you clearing a military checkpoint?

[dry ice]

No

[thin pivot]

kinda lost

[dry ice]

Press home button when you ingame to open shade settings maybe?

And try some settings that may fit your request

[thin pivot]

alright thanks

[dry ice]

Like filmic bloom, FXAA

[thin pivot]

thanks

[dry ice]

Your welcome

[umbral hawk]

The past couple crashes yes, but its crashed in other areas as well. Like the trainyard in Garbage, Railbridge in Cordin, and ecologist research base. (Research base is when it started.)

Currently was taking down the military at the South Cordin checkpoint.

[narrow sparrow]

Usually killing the mechanic in that checkpoint crashes the game. You can try deleting him from the debug menu.

[umbral hawk]

Well shit that might be it, cause I killed him before heading to said research base.

Sorry for the noob question... But how would one go about removing this man from existence? I dont even know how to find the debug menu lol

[dapper pendant]

!debug

How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[umbral hawk]

Ty!

Okay I got debug working, is there a bot command for how to remove a dead npcs files lol? Cause his body despawned since the last time I was here.

[narrow sparrow]

Press F7 and in the console that pops up type release_id 54966

[umbral hawk]

Hopefully that works, really appreciate the help guys. If the problem persists... Well I suppose start a new game and see if it still happens lol.

How many mods are active in Mo2?
Any of them have a Red X next to them?

[analog elk]

Active: 359
There is no red cross.

[narrow sparrow]

whats the extra mod you enabled?

[balmy meadow]

got this message when doing a new install+

this is MO2

[tender forge]

Check if you are blocked from accessing https://www.moddb.com/

[balmy meadow]

i disable antivirus in windows security?

[tender forge]

in windows defender, yes.
Or you can add Anomaly and Gamma folders to Exclusions
windows security > virus & threat protection > manage settings > exclusions

[analog elk]

None from outside sources.
Included only shops.

[narrow sparrow]

Whats the name of the mod?

[balmy meadow]

i added the folders to exclusions already 👍🏼

[analog elk]

1. 207 - Mags Redux (Disable G.A.M.M.A Unjam Reload) - RavenAscendant
2. Mags Buyable at Traders

[narrow sparrow]

1. Find the Gamma Ui mod in MO2 using the search bar
2. Right click > Open in Explorer
3. Delete everything inside the mod's folder
4. Run installer as admin
5. Click "Download G.A.M.M.A. Data"
6. Click "Only install G.A.M.M.A. Add-ons”
   This will reset your modlist to default. Re-enable Mags so you can load your save

[balmy meadow]

installation is complete

[feral jungle]

yo is there any way to open gamma in windowed or borderless? for whatever reason, I can't render anomaly or gamma in fullscreen, which when launching from mo2 forces fullscreen by default

[keen cedar]

Edit Anomaly/appdata/user.ltx

[feral jungle]

so I can hear game audio but it's a loop of my monitor trying to render the game in full screen and failing miserably

[keen cedar]

Near the bottom of the file

[feral jungle]

thanks my man shall give it a go

also while I'm here any idea why my monitor has a stroke trying to render anomaly and gamma in fullscreen?

[keen cedar]

What resolution is your monitor

[feral jungle]

I have it at 1920×1080 it's also at 120hz if that helps although I have tried putting it to 60

[tender forge]

and how does mo2 look now?
358 active with no ❌

Or 358 active with even more ❌ ?

[tender forge]

Should be able to run now

[balmy meadow]

im new to this community, and people like you and others who help people experience this game are absolutely great, thank you for your time

[honest crag]

Can you somehow put minimap properly in the frame? https://imgur.com/a/PzbKF6i

I guess that happens because I have 16:10 ratio not 16:9, but can you fit it somehow without changing resolution to 16:9?

[upbeat spear]

Hi, is this the place I have to ask for a error? I apologize if not, I'm new here. Every time I right click with my night vision my game crash : (

[late vessel]

How do I fix the issue with none of the boxes having loot unless ive gotten a stash info from a dead person?

[honest crag]

This is a GAMMA mechanic, it's on purpose. You can go to Mod Configuration Menu > ZCP (it should be at the bottom) > Loot, and change it how you want, but it will completely destroy mod balance

[late vessel]

its not gamma, anomaly had the same issue

[honest crag]

I played base anomaly and I"m sure I was looting things from stashes without having stash info. Don't remember if I setup something too, it was a long time ago, but I'm sure i was finding some staff in Anomaly too

[late vessel]

i found none ¯_(ツ)_/¯

i think actual game trilogy had loot in undiscovered stashes- maybe just in one though, like clear sky

@narrow sparrow hi, the log?

[long phoenix]

heyhey what does a yellow exclamation mark in the rightbottom corner of the screen mean?

[narrow sparrow]

Yep, the log

[long phoenix]

just like this guy #╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

[narrow sparrow]

I think its the stealth indicator

[long phoenix]

thanks for the response but I dont get it O: i just started a new game, and its there, and it doesnt matter if i have armor or not, or if im crouching or not

[honest crag]

You can enable stealth indicator in mod options, it should be like white/black dot instead of this exclamation mark in exactly same place

Maybe it's something different, that just appear in exactly same place as optional stealth indicator
