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 launcher with admin rights
7. Uncheck every box in the Launcher
8. Click on Install / Update G.A.M.M.A.

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.||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​|| _ _ _ _ _ _ https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/922555488665743391/1031175832376447077/unknown.png

Do what @jolly ginkgo says

They know this one better!

[jolly ginkgo]

its from this post #1026867123584258169 message

[brazen creek]

@high barn anomaly / appdata the log is in here and you look at the txt one

[simple surge]

[past dew]

i updated it if thats what ur saying

[simple surge]

You need to update anomaly

[jolly ginkgo]

read instruction, this is about the Anomaly game file needing to be updated to 1.5.2 properly

[simple surge]

By adding files and replacing pre-exiting

🙂

[simple surge]

Thank you for showing me that one

[teal shore]

im getting a lot of random frame spikes anyone know a way to fix them?

[simple surge]

How we looking boss. It's plucking away? No ERROR on command prompt?

[simple surge]

I know a way to give more recourses

If your PC can handle it

[teal shore]

that would be great

it def can

[simple surge]

How much RAM do you have?

[teal shore]

32 gb

[simple surge]

Awesome

In the MOD2 Launcher

Go to the "Fixes" tab

Activate "12 GB RAM"

This will keep all the games textures "In local memory" taking strain off the PC

Gives on average 10-20 FPS more!

[high barn]

I guess it will be this?

[simple surge]

As well as less stutters!

[teal shore]

goated thanks for the help

[simple surge]

NP! Happy hunting Stalker!

[brazen creek]

@high barn yes

[high barn]

Any idea how I can solve the problem of the kriss?

[covert bane]

I have a question

[simple surge]

Shoot

[jolly ginkgo]

@solar narwhal is it possible to use an older save and see more stability, or would loading any save crash your game right now?

[solar narwhal]

Well I tried a save from 20 minutes before the latest one.. same result.. so I'm updating gamma seeing if that fixes anything.

[covert bane]

So on MO2, next to the 'Run' button it says 'Anomaly Launcher' and if you click that, it shows various 'Anomaly Launcher' options. Do I press on the 'Anomaly Launcher (DX11-AVX)?

[lucid stone]

I got an error saying "shader compilation fail".

[past thicket]

i get this every time i update

[simple surge]

I help you with a few things to make the game run right and better, but you want 11

[covert bane]

I just remember a previous video saying to do it but its an outdated YT video

I wasnt sure if I still do that

[brazen creek]

@high barn not sure , could try to update again and see if that fixes it

[simple surge]

Don't bother with AVX. It can be worth it if you are packing a high end GPU, but I find 11 to be much more stable

[covert bane]

My GPU is decent I think

okay sounds good I'll put it on 11

[simple surge]

Also make sure to disable it in the Stalker Anomaly Splash Screen/Launcher

[simple surge]

Also turn the shadow mapping down for more FPR

[covert bane]

Can a RTX 3060 handle it fine?

[simple surge]

It's less about if it can handle it, and just a more stable game overall

[covert bane]

Okay

[past thicket]

so how do i fix this, i am kinda new to Gamma i would appreciate ur help

[jolly ginkgo]

read bot message

[sterile basin]

I just killed all the army in agroprom and the game crashed godamn!!!

[tender forge]

Thats not dependency issue tho

[simple surge]

Oh one last thing too, if you want the game to have more color I recommend this as a base line, but customize as you see fit (you have to be in game loaded in to see the menu)

[sterile basin]

what went wrong?

[eager turret]

I still can't get pda task list to work it's it's greyed out but installer seems to have worked fine

[simple surge]

Enjoy the update and happy Stalking!

[past thicket]

then what is it ?

[jolly ginkgo]

it's not? it looked like it for me for some reason

[eager turret]

What would cause greyed out mods in MO 2?

[tender forge]

You're using latest gamma launcher 4.3, correct?

[high barn]

I thought the same and it didn't work

[past thicket]

yes i am, but for some i always update and it always says there is an update despite updating it just a few seconds ago

[narrow parrot]

What is the latest installer?

[tender forge]

Just to verify, screenshot me the launcher window

[jolly ginkgo]

[raw raft]

1) Add Gamma and Anomaly folders to the Windows defender exclusions and disable real-time protection temporarily, before downloading the file.
You can find the settings here
Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Manage settings
2) Grab the latest launcher. <#📢announcements message>
3) Go to [YOUR GAMMA FOLDER]\.Grok's Modpack Installer and extract the G.A.M.M.A. Launcher.exe here
4) Delete G.A.M.M.A. Installer.exe
5) Launch G.A.M.M.A. Launcher.exe with Admin rights and either follow the 1st time setup procedure, or follow the instructions from the Helper.

[past thicket]

here it is .

i am currently updating it again, after deleting all the content that has been downloaded

for the bot issue, yeah ik this is my second today

[tender forge]

Tell me once you're done, and screenshot mo2 in fullscreen once the installer finished its job

[solar narwhal]

@jolly ginkgo Okay I updated relaunched the same save and now got this https://gyazo.com/84b4815399a9793404a8608405aa7eec

okey, i added u as a friend

does anabiotic help you get through a psi storm as well?

[tender forge]

Yes

Also gameplay questions go to #╟🔰☢newbies-chat

[split ginkgo]

oh wait didnt mean to post here sorry, was searching for something and ended up here accidentally

[jolly ginkgo]

any borked mods? screenshot your mo2 window

[tender forge]

Better question

How old is the save? And did you use custom mods with it?

[solar narwhal]

post 0.9 and today old

[tender forge]

Hmm

Did you enable duty expansion by any chance?

[solar narwhal]

But i didn't have the Expanded enabled xD

Just enabled it and I'm in

[past thicket]

well that was embarrassing

[tender forge]

By default it should be disabled
As it can cause the same crash down the line

[jolly ginkgo]

also (good addons with issues and bugs)

its in that category

[solar narwhal]

yeah I enabled it because I wanted to check it out ... I knew what I was getting into XD

[tender forge]

Ye well

I would disable it and start a new game tbf

[jolly ginkgo]

dooty moment

[solar narwhal]

So was that the cause of my crashes earlier... because besides some duty goons I got with me... I'm in a place with a whole bunch of merc corpses

[tender forge]

Probably, that mod is usually the cause of that specific crash

[jolly ginkgo]

you could have mentioned that and removed a lot of my headache trynna debug that shit but Kirbo is a pro at asking the right question

[solar narwhal]

So.. why is it included if it causes such problems?

[tender forge]

!1.0

[raw raft]

1.0 WHEN?

Short answer:
When it's done™️.

Longer answer, more informative:
Grok is trying to release 1.0 ASAP, he's working now (as in, he have a real job) so his modding time is limited. For now, he's doing the same things he has been doing for months: polishing, bug fixing and releasing (almost) daily updates.
Also, Boomsticks and Sharpsticks have been updated, this has clearly slowed down the work, because you have to put weapons in loadouts, give them to NPCs, balancing these guns, make sure everything is in place... it's a lot of extra work that is already being worked on these days and for which 1.0 is delayed.
However.
G.A.M.M.A., as it is right now, can already be considered 1.0, because the actual 1.0 will literally just be a more organised mod list (once and for all), so no disabled mods that can harm your game, etc.

As for actually new things to be added, he has already said not to expect the world for 1.0.

[tender forge]

Bottom line, if the mod is disabled by default, means it's disabled for a reason

[jolly ginkgo]

and if you really wanna know, there are people who are very good at modding that can debug their own shit

[neat spade]

I have a quick question about updating to the newer version of gamma. WIll the updated version corrupt my save from the previous version?

[tender forge]

If the save is before 0.9 update, then there is a high chance yes

Depends.

1. Do you have 376 active mods in mo2?
2. Do you see any ❌ in MO2 under flags?

   answer all 3 questions.

My favorites aren't showing, as in they aren't high lighted (but they still work normally, like not being disassembled, etc) in my inventory.

I take it it's because I'm playing on a 0.9 save, but I started a new play through to check and the bug's still there. Should I try reinstalling addons maybe?

Increase texture quality

[storm horizon]

My other PC (it's on 0.9 but I didn't install the latest hotfixes yet) has favorites still visually show, so I'm not entirely sure

[crude oyster]

i have heard that those memory read problems is due to pre 0.9 saves but im starting with a new game. others have had the same issue specifically with rostok which just happened to be the spawn i chose for the new playthrough

Idk then, a bit of a random error that i have no notes for.

Either try this from the bot, or maybe try playing the game in dx10?

[simple surge]

Are you asking for some of the things I found out?

[tender forge]

No, was asking what 2 extra mods he enabled... And he answered

[simple surge]

Ah, didn't want to ignore you. Was afk for a second

[strange fox]

are normal my stealth overhaul be greyed?

[crude oyster]

ill try that and see, grok mentioned an issue with modded exes early on with the 0.9 release so there might still be some things not ironed out there

[tender forge]

I hope you didn't start the install, then closed it just to get to mo2?

[strange fox]

nop

[tender forge]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Go to your gamma folder, delete gamma definitions.zip and version.txt files
Run the 4.3 launcher, make sure 4 boxes are ticked, click install / update gamma

[crystal pier]

i updating following the guide and i went to launch and its saying shader compilation failed

[past thicket]

@tender forge So i screen shot everything i have in mo2

[tender forge]

https://tenor.com/view/pour-drink-alcohol-lets-drink-tequila-gif-17171578

[past thicket]

there u go the whole thing

[jolly ginkgo]

[vague yacht]

are any of these in the disabled section supposed to be enabled?

[crystal pier]

i updated following the guide and i went to launch and its saying shader compilation failed can someone help

[jolly ginkgo]

no

[pastel tendon]

hey im having problem with an item and im trying to turn on the night vision but it dosent seem to work

[tender forge]

! disabled

[raw raft]

Mods under the G.A.M.M.A Disabled category and ALSO other disabled mods that aren't under this category, are disabled for a variety of reasons: compatibility, performance, bugs, busy hands, etc.
DO NOT ENABLE THEM. SERIOUSLY. DON'T.
(If you don't know what "busy hands" is, type !busyhands in #🤖bot-commands)

What about animations? Can I enable them?

DO NOT ENABLE ANIMATIONS THAT ARE DISABLED BY DEFAULT, IN MCM IN GAME OR ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE MOD LIST.
They are disabled for the same reasons written above.

Why do we have these mods in the mod list if we can't activate them?

Because G.A.M.M.A. is STILL IN BETA.
NO, Grok can't simply remove these mods. Version 1.0 will have a clean mod list.

If you really want to use stuff that is disabled by default, forget about #🔨base-gamma-support, use #🔨modded-gamma-support instead.

[sharp cloak]

Any mods disabled?

[crystal pier]

i didnt touch any mods i just started the game

[crude oyster]

yknow, i wonder if it was because i deleted my shaders cache before install assuming it would be needed with the updates to them

[vague yacht]

Im still getting the same problem as yesterday. my hideout furniture isnt showing up even though I have the updated files

[crystal pier]

i had stutter fix on i think before

[sharp cloak]

Delete your shaders cache in your Anomaly game folder, then try running the game again

[crude oyster]

otherwise i might just have to play on dx10? which is uhh ok i guess but this is certainly an unencountered issue beforehand, all my months playing gamma never ran into this kind of bug

[sullen aspen]

I'm working on a crash upon starting a new game, get to the loading screen and it throws an error about toz textures

[crystal pier]

can i do delete shaders in the launcher

the little box

[strange fox]

cant found the definition.zip archive

[sly shore]

There are probably easier ways to do this but i know this way works 90% of the time

1.Open your anomaly launcher from the Anomaly folder (the unmodded version)
2. Once the splash screen shows up tick the "delete shader cache" box and start the game
3.after you get to the main menu exit the game.
4. In M02 look for "cummulative shaders pack for GAMMA under the disable category and enable it.
5. Launch GAMMA from M02 like normal

[tender forge]

[strange fox]

[tender forge]

Thats the most hacky way to fix shader comp error

Which is mostly caused by one of the 2 reshade mods that didn't install correctly

[wind orchid]

i was just getting my sin buddies to a place they need to be at and then my game crashes

[vague yacht]

Yep still no furniture or AP ammo to be used on the mosin, my game files ARE uptodate

[hardy turret]

My bullets do very little damage ever since I did the update. Anyone know a fix?

[crude oyster]

i believe hideout furnitures is disabled by default for now

[tender forge]

Modded gamma?

Ui isn't default one

[vague yacht]

I have some UI and texture mods thats about it, my game is uptodate, nothing to do with my mods

[tender forge]

join support voice channel 1 and share your screen

[strange fox]

i found it

as just looking in the wrong folder

[main mango]

#📢announcements message

[crystal pier]

this worked thank you

[vague yacht]

Its was the "G.A.M.M.A. Artefacts Reinvention" thats was fucking with hideout furniture not showing, grok updated a line of code, my file has said code as its uptodate but hasnt made a difference

Do I have to start a new save maybe?

[tender forge]

here's the thing

[main mango]

Also don't enable shaders cumulative patch.

[tender forge]

if you mess with the default modlist, all your issues are going to #🔨modded-gamma-support
no ifs or buts

[wheat flint]

Ive downloaded the downloads.zip 14~gb do i have to check all the boxes in launcher or only Force extract? wanna full install

[zinc abyss]

I have it enabled now,game didnt work without it

[vague yacht]

Boi I launched the default modlist and it was the same tf

[tender forge]

yet you messed with the game using the existing save... and now it doesn't work

[main mango]

That's why you have to delete shader cache and then do the fix i linked you in the previous message

[stuck sun]

Thanks Kirbo

[zinc abyss]

Will do, Thank you very much

[main mango]

No pro

[vague yacht]

Sorry what? You mean, I updated my game because important hotfixes were pushed? And everything was fine before? Hmmmm, I cant even do a hotfix update without borking my save?

[rocky cypress]

Hello. My Stalker Gamma turned blue and I was wondering if anyone knew what to do.

[copper solar]

this crash after updating today, anyone know what could be the cause?

[thorn vale]

Have been away since Friday and saw all the hotfixes, can I update and keep saves or do I need a new save?

[sterile basin]

My game crashed again when I killed certain soldier in agroprom army base...

[sharp cloak]

! bluetint

[raw raft]

If you have that annoying blue tint, open your GAMMA folder and go here: .Grok's Modpack Installer/GAMMA/modpack_addons/. Then, delete this mod: mod: 188- Enhanced Shaders - KennShade
Now, open your MO2 and reinstall 188- Enhanced Shaders - KennShade and tick:

01 Enhanced Shaders - PBR
02 Enhanced Color Grading
Optional - shader_param controls - simple

[hardy turret]

My bullets do very little damage after updating even on a new save anyone have any clue why?

[rocky cypress]

Alright, thams very much

thanks*

[neat spade]

So I tried downloading the new update but the command prompt came up and all these errors showed up. Gamma seems to be downloading just fine still. is this normal or should I just try a clean reinstall of gamma?

Might not work since it is a bit outdated

[tender forge]

in which folder did you put the launcher?

[vague yacht]

Would ya look at that! A fresh save with no hideout furniture. Its fine, I guess my case is too convoluted, I'll just re-install lmfao.

[wind orchid]

so the game crashes when i bring a person or a squad to a select area for a task

breh

[tender forge]

maybe don't kill him?

[wind orchid]

hope this gets fixed soon or maybe its a dx9 issue

[jolly ginkgo]

using the same custom UI mods? o.O

[sterile basin]

No choice there is a juicy stash over there

[tender forge]

snatch and run yo

[vague yacht]

Yes but I just said that everything was working before WITH my custom mods, so a fresh save couldve helped, but didnt :/ Now will try default list AGAIN but this time with a fresh save

[rocky cypress]

Nah it turned my game green instead lmao

[neat spade]

same place the gamma installer was. made sure to delete the installer

[stray venture]

some pistols no longer go to the "lowered" stance when sprinting for me. I know its something to do with exclusions but can someone help me fix it?

[tender forge]

but did you press green button first, before starting the install process?

[vague yacht]

If on the default list with a fresh save and its STILL fucked.....then idek what the fuck is going on considering my shit is updated. brb to test

[jolly ginkgo]

wrong place to ask, go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

it look to be colored

normally its just white

[simple surge]

Might be something that coincides with the "green compass" add on (a custom one)

[hardy turret]

I'm playing with default mods list and a new save. By bullets do very little damage even when I turn damage by player all the way up. Anyone have any clue what it might be?

[tender forge]

Did you use gamma launcher 4.3 to update your game?

[hardy turret]

@tender forge yes

[tender forge]

!k98 try this

[raw raft]

1) Go in this folder: [YOUR GAMMA FOLDER]\.Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches
2) Copy these four folders (check pic)
3) Go to your Anomaly folder
4) Paste these four folders (check pic)
5) Overwrite/replace all if asked

[neat spade]

no, I clicked the orange install/update button. I was following the instructions to the second install guide on the page below the first one.

[crystal pier]

my game looks like this now... i dont remember shit lookin like this

[vague yacht]

Aiight, how does this shit make sense. Furniture is showing up with the default list, but it didnt yesterday. Furniture was showing before 0.9 with custom mods, so something must be fucking with 0.9, when it wasnt before....ugh. Least I know now.

[chrome minnow]

@simple surge Looks like everything's working, thanks for the help earlier

[simple surge]

Glad to hear and no problem! Happy Stalking

[crystal pier]

i shoulda never done that update

[tender forge]

i mean i can help, but snow offered the hacky way

fix is on him now

[simple surge]

Can confirm it works, I helped people using the same way

[crystal pier]

damn ;-;

[simple surge]

NGL

[tender forge]

ik it works, but it works for the wrong reasons

[vague yacht]

thats a shiny lad

[simple surge]

Yeaaaah

But as a temp fix it works and it seems to mainly happen to updates, no fresh installs

[tender forge]

not even a temp fix

most of the time it's because Atmospherics didn't install correctly

[pale dagger]

RF receiver doesn't work with the "No need to pull out your RF receiver", I can hear the static but it doesn't beep unless its in my hands, anyone else got this problem?

[crystal pier]

what cann i do now lmao]\

[simple surge]

[tender forge]

a bit rarer is when SSS got corrupted in the install process

[simple surge]

How does one fix that

[tender forge]

Open mo2, in the middle there is a search bar, type Atmos in it and screenshot the result (aka the mod)

[vague yacht]

wadiyatalkinabeet m8 (but actually not sure just another sassy lad m8 haha)

[hardy turret]

@raw raft I've replaced those files
Now my game won't launch as it says shader compilation failed.

[tender forge]

could you drag the version tab to the left and show me the full name of the green text

[sharp cloak]

Delete your shaders cache folder

[hardy turret]

@tender forge I've replaced those files. Now my game won't launch because it said shader compilation failed.

[tender forge]

yes i've read that already

[crystal pier]

1.7.9.7

[tender forge]

ok, that one is correct
now what about Screen space shaders, find it

[crystal pier]

15.3

[tender forge]

screenshot

and please don't crop mo2

i need to see the entire window

[crystal pier]

oop

lmfao

[hardy turret]

Where can I find my shader cashe

[sharp cloak]

In your Anomaly game folder, inside appdata

[tender forge]

ok last one
delete the text in the search bar and screenshot mo2 again... but with categories closed

[vague yacht]

C:\Anomaly\appdata (example directory)

[neat spade]

so gamma has almost finished the install/update process. Should I have pressed on the first install initialization button? if so what do I do from here?

[tender forge]

close the categories
also, apart from the scp being enabled... what's the 2 extra mods that are on?

[crystal pier]

unlimited stashes and stutter fix

[tender forge]

!k98
ok, if this doesn't work
i guess we will have to roll with SCP for now

Disable the shader cumulative pack
Go to your anomaly/appdata folder and delete shader cache folder

then paste these 4 folders as specified by the bot

[raw raft]

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

[simple surge]

This is all for that same shader problem right?

[tender forge]

no

[crystal pier]

uhhh i dont have an annomaly folder in my appdata where else would it be

[hardy turret]

@sharp cloak I've deleted shader cashe folder. But I am still getting same error and the game won't launch. Shader compilation failed.

[tender forge]

Anomaly/appdata

[sharp cloak]

Any mods disabled?

[tender forge]

not Appdata/anomaly

[crystal pier]

ohhh

mb

i get it

delete shader folder or the contents?

[proud sable]

Having an issue, a core npc in the game killed a leader which I need to lot a KPK from. But because he killed him, I cant loot him, and I cant kill the npc because it will end the questline.

[copper solar]

can someone tell me what is keybind name for pause menu? i just deleted it after trying to change some buttons ;-; i cant go to the menu for options

[hardy turret]

@sharp cloak I haven't disabled any but I have one optional one. The new item highlighted.

[simple surge]

Puase

[tender forge]

no
right now we're playing a guessing game

[simple surge]

I'm trying to take notes and I'm just over here like

[copper solar]

@simple surge is the default kescape for it?

[simple surge]

It's pause

[copper solar]

hmm ok

[crystal pier]

ok then im good to launch after this and cross my fingers?

[simple surge]

Should be somewhere over by numpad I think

Hope that helps

But yes, in my options its pause is bound to "pause" lol

[sly shore]

I mean i did say there was probably an easier way. Fixed my issues once.

[crystal pier]

fucked my shit UP 😭

[simple surge]

[crystal pier]

i did this then launched and it says shader compilation failed

[sharp cloak]

I want you to open Mod Organizer 2, disable Enhanced Shaders and Screen Space shaders, then delete your shader cache folder then open the game

[tender forge]

fuck

[crystal pier]

frfr

[sly shore]

Apologies. I have always lived by a "if shits too fucked, reinstall it all" philosophy

[crystal pier]

ill be playing at approximately 5am

[tender forge]

i approve such philosophy

[crisp scaffold]

thats what i did and i fixed my issue

[crystal pier]

RIP me

[simple surge]

It's 5 o clock somewhere

[crystal pier]

not here brother

[simple surge]

[crystal pier]

can i reinstall without erasing everything and starting from the begininging

[simple surge]

What part?

[crystal pier]

do i need to reinstall the launcher and download all the files again

[simple surge]

This should help

#╭📖faq message

[crystal pier]

im tryna keep my save too

[simple surge]

Just drag them to the desktop

I'll give you pathing

Once you do all that start here

[crystal pier]

bro do i need to delete annomaly or gamma

im so confused atp

[simple surge]

#🖥️how-to-install message

The key is to be precise and to read twice if you have to

[simple surge]

I would do both

If you want to do a clean install

[hardy turret]

@sharp cloak ok game is launching now. Let's hope what I did to cause the shader problem fixed my bullets doing very little damage problem. Thanks for the help.

[simple surge]

I would get rid of even the folders

[lyric wolf]

Im getting this crash message when entering agroprom underground. Does anyone have a solution?

[simple surge]

As it is recommended

So I'll give you a check list, if you can read you got this

[sharp cloak]

You're welcome, I hope the damage is fixed.

[jolly ginkgo]

!1080

[raw raft]

Tick "Pre 0.9 Save Fix" addon in MO2

[tender forge]

notice mod count

[jolly ginkgo]

[simple surge]

Step one: Saves (drag them to desktop from drive/anomaly/appdata)

Step two: #╭📖faq message
-Yes delete everything other than saves on desktop. Yes even folders

Step Three: Start here from scratch and follow everything in order
#🖥️how-to-install message
-Common mistakes are, not running launcher as admin, not giving folders access privileges, leaving anti virus and fire wall on --MUST BE OFF--

When done you should have 376 (+1 -1) mods loaded on the MOD2 Launcher with 0 flags (not counting ones you may add or take away)

WHEN FINISHED PUT THE SAVE FILES BACK IN THE SAME SPOT (THERE WILL BE NO SAVE FOLDER IN THERE YET BECAUSE IT IS FRESH -- THEN IN THE MOD2 LAUNCHER TICK ON "9.0 SAVE FIX")

Read twice, everything works if you follow directions. Taking your time now will save you time later

[simple surge]

When you make new folders, make sure your pathing is this to the T (drive doesn't matter)

[lyric wolf]

That did it! thank you

[simple surge]

There is no more information I can give you

[hardy turret]

@sharp cloak replacing those files fixed damage bud at he cost of resetting my key binds. Thanks chaps!

[sharp cloak]

Happy for you! Good luck

[lone saddle]

Hello, I have "black screen in main menu" problem, tried reinstalling a few times, didnt work. What should I do?

[jolly ginkgo]

keep in mind that with the pre 0.9 save, in addition to the extra mods you have enabled there, eventually your game save will get buggier and buggier. This only help you load up the save, but it will not prevent eventual save corruption or other problems with your playthrough down the line if you choose to continue playing the old save instead of making a new one after 0.9

[lyric wolf]

Understood, very helpful

[jolly ginkgo]

!blackfont

[raw raft]

Disable Tactical Fonts

[jolly ginkgo]

or you can choose to keep that one and disable modern UI font

anyway search "font" in MO2 filter bar and you will find these mods

[charred wind]

hey my game is crashing whenever I try to start a new game

[simple surge]

Can I see your full MOD2 Launcher please

[simple surge]

Try loading it on D11 and see if that fixes that problem before we go deeper

[dusk star]

so idk what i pressed but my "press f to talk" isnt there anymore how do i bring that back?

[simple surge]

Also don't use AVX mode

[simple surge]

Use the regular DX11

[charred wind]

what about for potato pc

[fast wharf]

Is this in general for everyone? I've been crashing to desktop with no clue as to why and my launcher had the AVX on by default

[simple surge]

It's more stable from what I've seen personally. AVX is for HIGH PROFOMANCE cards

I have a 3090 and still don't use it

[fast wharf]

Bless ty i will try it

[jolly ginkgo]

in general its better, but for some system AVX can help with performance, it's just poorly implemented for x-ray engine from what ive heard which is why most people don't enable it

[simple surge]

Make sure it is also disabled in the DEFULT Stalker Anomaly Launcher!!!

[simple surge]

@fast wharf

[fast wharf]

Roger that! Turning that off now

[simple surge]

For potato PC'S also turn the shadow map down while you are in there!

Will help

EXAMPLE

[fast wharf]

I hopefully shouldn't quite be potato level but if I keep crashing and get desperate ill keep that in mind lol 3060ti and i5 9600k

[simple surge]

Another thing, this seems to be the BIGGEST killer of FPS

If you use 1080 at 23 inches you don't need it, if you use anything higher rez than 1080, you don't need it

This is 4K with it off steady 100+ FPS (top right)

I promise

[jolly ginkgo]

press numpad ENTER key

[hardy turret]

I can not launch the game when screen space shaders is enabled.

[lone saddle]

I unticked tactical fonts, still black screen

[jolly ginkgo]

screenshot the screen for me

completely black screen or black text?

[lone saddle]

completely black screen

[dusk star]

THANK YOUUUU

[charred wind]

that fixed it but it runs slow on my pc now

[simple surge]

Turn setting down in the in game option until you get a FPS and visual fedality you like!

Key note: If it says DO NOT TOUCH

Don't touch it

[charred wind]

I mean, when I played regular anomaly it still ran slow until I lowered the directx to like 8 or something

[jolly ginkgo]

did you try dx8 but without avx?

[simple surge]

As far as I know, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, that's a big no in Gamma

[simple surge]

But this might work, so again, could be wrong

[charred wind]

I'll try that now

but yeah it was like 25 fps at peak

[jolly ginkgo]

im just kinda guessing since I haven't fucked around with helping people run gamma on older PCs lol

if you have a lot of ram though like 16gb or more you can run prefetcher mod

[simple surge]

I think they just rolled out something to fix the DX9 not too long ago, but I don't know about DX8 yet

That's why I wanted someone to correct me

[jolly ginkgo]

long first load into the game but it should give some extra frames for most people

[simple surge]

That's why I recommend the 12 GB (if the PC has the juice)

Slightly longer load times, but I get 0, and I mean 0, stutter now

[jolly ginkgo]

another bonus is faster load time between zones

[charred wind]

yeah this still crashes

[charred wind]

I'll try this now

[jolly ginkgo]

ok so it look like its dx8 related for you then

[charred wind]

I think I have 16 GB

[simple surge]

Yeah , they haven't fixed DX8 yet

[brazen creek]

!avx

[raw raft]

Actual explanation at the bottom but simply put:

Do you have a good CPU? Use AVX (if you have a crash, it probably means your CPU doesn't support this function).
Do you have a good GPU? DON'T use AVX.
Do you have both? Try for yourself, see what's better.

Actual explanation:
AVX is a way for your CPU to do calculations on a large array of data simultaneously. This is the same kind of job GPUs are primarily meant for.
So if your GPU is decent, AVX is (in most cases) outclassed by the GPU itself. Best way to know which is better for you, personally, is to try both versions and see what does or doesn't crash/performs better.

[simple surge]

While great, overall game stability is better with it off -cough cough-

It's just the engine, it's not that the tec ain't spicy

[jolly ginkgo]

there are more to it than that definitely, but for a lot of people they wouldn't understand whats a "good CPU" anyway

[simple surge]

[brazen creek]

true

i dont use no need

[jolly ginkgo]

xray engine also run a lot better on cpus that perform well on single core operation

so even some older CPUs will out perform more modern ones

[charred wind]

okay so this didnt work either, but I found this I'll try next #╭📖faq message

[jolly ginkgo]

!dx8 oh yea i also forgot about this

[raw raft]

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

I seem to not be able to reload my weapon anymore after updating the modset just now

[simple surge]

Yes yes, good good. Give me all the juice

[abstract dagger]

how do i fix this?

[simple surge]

You might have unbound the key binding in the mod settings in the game

Look through your mod configuration less than find "Unjam reload same key" or something along the lines of that

We'll start with that first before we go deeper

[charred wind]

still crashes :\

[simple surge]

Then try DRX9 for now

I know that one is solid

[abstract dagger]

there is no MCM bind that says unjam or reload, the basic game controls has a unjam but its currently not binded

there is also no basic bind that says reload either

[charred wind]

alrighty

[simple surge]

The problem persists just run it on DX11 and turn down the graphics settings inside the game menu

I already gave a bunch of tidbits to which ones kill your frames the most

Just scroll up and you'll find it

[south garden]

377 mods in MO2 after install, game launches fine but textures of water flash in and out depending on my angle of view, also rocks have a black texutre on them that doesnt seem to belong

[simple surge]

Someone had this earlier

I personally do not know the solution but I know there is one

[south garden]

Thank you @simple surge

ill look through the thread here

[simple surge]

Good luck!

[charred wind]

alright, ty

[simple surge]

Sorry, I was taking a dab

Okay

I'm back at my PC, I'll look for you

[simple surge]

Are you using the mags additional mod

[quartz forum]

WERE YOU ABLE TO FIX THIS? IM GETTING SAME PROBLEM

[abstract dagger]

not sure i am just using all the regular mods, none of the additional or deactivated ones minus the shader compilation cuz my game would either not start or be black

let me check

[simple surge]

It's something you have to enable

So if you didn't enable it, it's not enabled

@abstract dagger

[jolly ginkgo]

unjam button for regular setting is the reload button

[simple surge]

Don't enable it as well

[jolly ginkgo]

so unjam should be R by default

[abstract dagger]

omfg

yea

that was it

[simple surge]

[abstract dagger]

the unjam bind was unbound in the basic controls and that is also the reloading key as you said

[candid heath]

idk if this fits here but I get some visual artifacts when i move my camera vertically

[simple surge]

Because the mod makes them one

[candid heath]

like a line of 2-3 pixels being a bit off

tried anti-aliasing and it didnt do anything

[jolly ginkgo]

uh no, I think that area is only ever relevant for unjam/reload when you are using the Mags Redux addon

[simple surge]

I am

[jolly ginkgo]

if you are not using mags redux addon then you should have R in the unjam key for normal setting's keybinding

[simple surge]

[abstract dagger]

got a new issue, trying to press 5, for binos or detector or RF receiver does not do anything

even though they are equipped

its binded too

[jolly ginkgo]

it should be 6 by default

[winter kite]

Press 4 for binocs

6 for detector

5 for bolt

[jolly ginkgo]

👍

[winter kite]

Keybinds have changed quite a bit in gamma...mostly for the better

[abstract dagger]

4 is nade 5 does nothing and 6 is bolt

[jolly ginkgo]

did you messed with those keybindings from before and trying to figure it out now or???

[abstract dagger]

nope

[winter kite]

Then check your keybinds again.....set it to default and try changing it again. It not working delete user.ltx

[jolly ginkgo]

that is super strange for your keybindings to be out of place like that

[abstract dagger]

trying to reset keybinds in the menu does not work i guess i will have to delete the user.ltx

[winter kite]

Ikr the only default i think are out of place is X for sprint...
Also i rebind it but keeping it to x gives that stalker feeling.

[simple surge]

There are also 2 spots for binding as well, I know this sounds dumb but use both spots for the same key (only for key having problem/has worked for me)

Or, I've had it were I made a lot of key bind changes in one go and some of them just didn't work. Save your game and give it a reset

[winter kite]

How do I learn bot commands y'all?

[abstract dagger]

[jolly ginkgo]

this will not only fix your setting issue, but potentially your previous issues you might have as well

[abstract dagger]

oh binding those did nothing, and i never had to do those before

[abstract dagger]

will it also fix the everything is black issue or will i just have to delete shaders again

anyway thanks

[jolly ginkgo]

potentially

!shader proper way of deleting shader cache btw

[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.

[winter kite]

The grenage binding is by default clear....clear that and use the grenade quick throw binding....

That's a potential fix

[jolly ginkgo]

its ok the !k98 command will fix all those key binding irregularities

[simple surge]

So why are bindings !k98?

[winter kite]

What does !k98 do? Lemme just

I see

[jolly ginkgo]

those are basically backup files from the GAMMA folder in case people borked their Anomaly folder for w/e reason

[tender forge]

Not exactly

[abstract dagger]

this fixed it for me

[jolly ginkgo]

and it also include the default user.ltx

[tender forge]

Those are actual patched files that installer uses to patch anomaly

While the default user ltx is located elsewhere

[simple surge]

Nice

[winter kite]

Good to hear

[jolly ginkgo]

ah ok, well it also include user.ltx in one of those folders so

[tender forge]

Actually true

the one in @abstract dagger's anomaly isnt right for w/e reason

I updated my gamma today and the zone still looks gray and dark. Is there a reason that the spring time zone wouldn't automatically be enabled??

[rapid veldt]

Gotta ask again, which settings eat the most fps? Changing resolution seems to change a lot but since its so pixelly I can't live with it so I'm trying to find alternatives.

[winter kite]

the grass and shadows...godrays maybe

[winter kite]

!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.

[rapid veldt]

Shadows were turned down and I don't want my game to look dogshit so I keep the grass on a little bit

[winter kite]

additionaly use the defaukt modlist

[rapid veldt]

Not default but not at 0 either

[simple surge]

I know what you are talking about 100% try this first

[rapid veldt]

I'm trying to find alternatives to those 2 though

[simple surge]

Trust me

Do that

You need to be in game

At a load

[winter kite]

also there should be a addon in mo2 to decrease stuttering

[rapid veldt]

I know how that works simply can't do that cuz my PC is off

Doesn't that simply make the game more vibrant?

[rapid veldt]

Don't have much an issue with stutters, pure fps lag

[winter kite]

that AND some minor performance

[vapid glen]

Is there something wrong with hideout furnitures at the moment? Not present in my workshop tabs.

[winter kite]

Are you on a HDD or SSD?

[crystal pier]

i finally just got to the installing gamma part i understand how to get my saves i should be back in the zone soon brother 🫡

[rapid veldt]

I fucked around with my settings and I'm getting 60ish in smaller maps and 40 to 50ish in bigger or active onew

[rapid veldt]

Ssd

[simple surge]

Awesome, LMK how everything works out!

[crystal pier]

Thank you for your time and super helpful guidance

[winter kite]

well in that case what are your specs? and how good do you want your game to be? do you have avx turned on?

[simple surge]

Sorry I thought you were talking about the color, I scrolled up and saw your OG post

The thing that easts the most FPS

[crystal pier]

Hopefully flawlessly from here on!

[winter kite]

we wish you luck good sir

[simple surge]

That eats the most FPS

[rapid veldt]

Rtx 2070 i7 9700k 16gb ram idk mhz ssd is kinda shit but it's an m.2 ig

I think 3600mhz

[winter kite]

well thats way better than mine...dunno whats causing your issue. How much avg fps u get?

[rapid veldt]

I'd expect like 60 fps stable everywhere

[simple surge]

Another thing you can do is turn the shadow cash down in the Anomaly Launcher as well as disabling AVX

[winter kite]

well i have a 3050 and the fps still drops to 40 sometimes....

[rapid veldt]

As I said 60 very sometimes 70 fps in small maps like rostok and 40 to 50 in big or active

[rapid veldt]

Avx off shadow map 2560

[narrow parrot]

How do I revert to the default mod list in the loader?

[rapid veldt]

I might have that at 2x or 4x

I'll have to turn that off

[simple surge]

You can also (if you have the PC power) enable the optional mod 12BG (under the fixes tab in the MOD2 Launcher) --BUT YOU NEED 12 GB FREE RAM--

[winter kite]

thats a perfectly expectable fps(at least for me) for a age old highly modded community taken care of game.
Nevertheless please guy what NorMee suggested

[winter kite]

update the game and it will automatically revert. There might be a bot command for reseting the mod order i am unaware of

[rapid veldt]

I've done that actually but I haven't tried playing with it

[simple surge]

If you play at more than 1080p you don't need it, if you play at 1080p at 23 inches or under, you don't need it

[rapid veldt]

Well thr issue might be that I have a huge 1440p monitor

[simple surge]

As in the 2x or 4x

[rapid veldt]

Hence why I don't like playing 1080p

[simple surge]

I'll show you that's not a problem

[jolly ginkgo]

default modlist? no other mods enabled outside of the 376 default?

[rapid veldt]

It used to be 60 and above

Is the issue

[simple surge]

4K 120 FPS average

Ultra wide

Almost 40 inches

[rapid veldt]

Didn't you have a rtx 3090? 😉

[winter kite]

shits gorguhauhdas(idk how to spell gorfhiushefs)

[simple surge]

Shhh

[simple surge]

That's not the point

[rapid veldt]

Bit of a difference

[simple surge]

Eh

For gaming not too much better than a 3080TI

[rapid veldt]

Still a generation above mine

[simple surge]

It's just they are faster for more things like AI work or renders (some of the stuff I work with)

[rapid veldt]

Anyway guess I'll try disabling the AA

[simple surge]

But trust me, kill the x2 and x4

You are above 1080p

[rapid veldt]

Yes

[simple surge]

Meaning you wont notice it being off because of pixel density

[rapid veldt]

I did get 100 fps in rostok at 1080

[winter kite]

well if all fails you can pull out the good ol reliable
delete shader cache
update gamma
delete user.ltx(not applicable in your casse)
lower your graphics settings
stay hydrated
reinstall(hopefully you wont need to)

[rapid veldt]

But I can't get over the pixels being visible

[simple surge]

That was make to make 1080p look better at high bigger inch ratios

[simple surge]

That was make to make 1080p look better at high bigger inch ratios

You won't

I have it off

Do you need mine?

[rapid veldt]

Honestly dont think it's THAT severe I think it's just tinkering with the settings

[winter kite]

yea dont forget to stay hydratedf

[rapid veldt]

Sorry you lost me for a sec, need your what?

Settings?

Do not the emoji

[simple surge]

Like some help tweaking settings

[vapid glen]

Currently updating to today's ver. Changed some lighting and shader mods for Atmos, but other than that default. At least one instance of hideout furnitures was disabled when I checked before starting to update (Not my doing).

[rapid veldt]

Well I'd appreciate that but I don't really have access to my game rn seeing as I'm in bed

But if you have any other general options I could tweak ill remember it

[magic sentinel]

addon download supposed to faill so much?

[simple surge]

Gotcha, hmm. I've given you the best of what I know and compaired to some of the helpers and mods that's nothing. If the game is running, just at low FPS. At least we know you did everything right

We just need to find the ideal setting the match the FPS you want with the visual fidelity you want

[rapid veldt]

God I spent like 2 days straight bugfixing

[simple surge]

Right, so you are past that

[rapid veldt]

If it didn't work I'd be disappointed

[simple surge]

Now it's just tweaking

Once you have it fine tuned, you don't have to do it again

[rapid veldt]

I still have to manually delete a file for my game to work every update though

[vapid glen]

Hideout furnitures simply isnt't working for me right now.

[rapid veldt]

Mostly yes

[simple surge]

Wait what???

[rapid veldt]

Momo multifix script from gamma close quarters combat fucks with the damage

For me anyway

[simple surge]

Did you update? Or fresh install?

[rapid veldt]

I literally needed grok personally to help me w this

[rapid veldt]

Both

Fresh reinstall once update like 10x

And the file comes back everytime

So I need to delete it

[simple surge]

Sheesh, yeah man at that point it's past me. Luckily some mods have been really active

If it was just an FPS problem I could help you all day

[rapid veldt]

Would've never known if not for grok tbh

[simple surge]

Sheesh

Yeah well the mods here are great

[rapid veldt]

Though I wonder why it only seems to affect me

Don't see many other people w the issue even though I use the installer just fine

Every copy of stalker gamma is personalised iceberg

[simple surge]

So just give em time and make your problem known (obly don't be obnoxious), but they will get to you for sure. I don't want to dip my toe in on something I'm not sure about yet

I'll reach out to a few people

[rapid veldt]

Sure

[winter kite]

bugfixing is the most fun part.....8 hours straight bugfixing....then talk to sid to get main quest....walk out of rookie village.....notice somethings not right.....quit.....repeat

[rapid veldt]

But well that's not the issue

Alright so I need to just finetune the settings and get rid of that AA ig

I'll check it out later

[rapid veldt]

When I was fixing my dmg I didn't even bother to talk to sid I just spawned and killed the first stalker I saw

Repeat that 10x and that was me for a whole day

Each time a new save

Depends on what you want to do

As far as I know md5 is crucial

[winter kite]

just update...everythings working

[rapid veldt]

Large files isn't unless explicitly stated

large files generally not needed after your first attempt at updating or installing

Is there any way to play Gamma with HD models?

[simple surge]

Yes, this was solves about 2-3ish hours ago

Look through posts

Kerb solved it

[simple surge]

Okay so

[winter kite]

it might be disabled in the default modlist if not might wanna manually download and install it

[simple surge]

How much RAM does your PC have?

[thorn vale]

16gb

[simple surge]

Okay, we won't give the game additional ram then because that's cutting it close (but it might be worth testing, the result may very depending on XMP RAM profile/speeds)

[simple surge]

We can save that for last

[glacial stag]

It's not on the mods list, and when installing manually, it apparently works, but I'm pretty sure the game crashes if I try to equip some outfits.

I was wondering if there's a compatibility patch for gamma, like there is for EFP.

[winter kite]

im out of ideas here mate. maybe @simple surge can help

[simple surge]

First simple "fix" is turning this to off

@thorn vale

[thorn vale]

That was already off

[simple surge]

Good

Second is to change some setting in the default splash screen/Anomaly launcher

Follow that

[ocean patrol]

16gb ram is fine for gigachad meatchunk's prefetcher...........

[simple surge]

Then make sure your MOD2 Launcher is using REGULAR DX not AVX

[simple surge]

You think so?

[simple surge]

I'll take your word for it, I'll tell them how to enable it!

[thorn vale]

Sure, where is that setting?

[drowsy owl]

Hai
Because I think it's a bug
I can't utilize the irons on the mosin while the scope is equiped- the underbarrel gl option that usually uses the canted sights simply turns off the 3D scope effect on the scope.
What can I do to fix it?

[ocean patrol]

I have and use........the game will use 12gb then......np here........

[simple surge]

[jolly ginkgo]

probably from all the extra vegetations in the "spring look" that Grok enabled to match current seasonal period

if atmospherics appears to be the latest version but I am still getting "shader compilation" issues, what can I do?

This was solved by Kerb up in the chat about 2-3 hours ago

[outer hinge]

[arctic lion]

Is there a link to download the old bas that isnt from MEGA?

[simple surge]

Now we know you can use the 12 GB boost (Credit to @ocean patrol ). It's going to be located in the MO2D Launcher! Type RAM into the filter box. Then tick it on under the "fixes" tab

[ocean patrol]

the performance aspect is crazy.......some say its worse......some say its better.......for me the last update is running way better than the previous ones........

[thorn vale]

12gb RAM? seems uh... a bit much, no?

[simple surge]

Same

[simple surge]

Honestly no

No modern games now a days recommend 16

[jolly ginkgo]

hey now, discount-kirbo is the best you're gonna get right now

but I can take a look

[simple surge]

This will help take load off the computer because it stores the games textures in "local memory" allowing them to be accessed faster

Still better than me

I have 16gb and I use......its awesome for stutters......meatchunk is a gigachad............

[drowsy owl]

I repeat the question- what might be broken here that I can't utilize the irons on mosin via the underbarrel gl bind?

[simple surge]

Once you are done with all that, let me know how it runs

If you are still having FPS problems, you could go back to the fall look and get rid of a lot of the flora. It seems to be hit or miss, again as @ocean patrol said

"the performance aspect is crazy.......some say its worse......some say its better.......for me the last update is running way better than the previous ones........"

Can anyone help with this error

[jolly ginkgo]

what version is your GAMMA launcher?

[tribal hedge]

I don’t know, can’t get it to work

[simple surge]

Yeah something is broken, should work with that keybind

[magic halo]

@brisk zinc thought of a better way to make my question clear, but im asking it here to follow ur request.
im basically just grabbing the stuff that makes the atmosphere of the game. (sound visual animation) and throwing out the gameplay stuff (gameplay gunplay hud) if that makes sense?
not that you didnt understand me to begin with ofc

[thorn vale]

where do you change the RAM dedicated then?

I ran with the current changes and its a bit better

[drowsy owl]

any ideas how to fix?
Or what might be causing a conflict?

ahh my b, ok

[brisk zinc]

It makes sense but you should ask in #🔨modded-gamma-support (I know they have basically the same name) because this channel is for "vanilla" stuff

[simple surge]

No worries!

I'm here to help

ah. damn. I went here to ask about a vanillia thing then didnt click back. sorry

Don't worry all good

so basically need to do a clean install to fix shader issue?

[simple surge]

Were you the person having shader problems?

[violet walrus]

Got a question, so previously there were animations for taking your bag out or looting items, after updating to 0.9 i cant seem to get those back, any advice or are they just gone for good?

[thorn vale]

I'm passively using 7gb RAM rn, so idk if allowing 12 for the game would be wise

[outer hinge]

didn't think doing an update would brick the game to this level

[simple surge]

Then leave that off

[magic halo]

agressor reshade seems to make the game brighter. does that detract from the eerieness of the zone?

[outer hinge]

I am having a shader issue now that I did the update

[tender forge]

Wtf
Is that a steamdeck?

[tribal hedge]

Yes

[outer hinge]

I had it running Friday then did an update today

That's all I can offer, other than going back to the fall look, but again. Results very

[ocean patrol]

test it.....if don't work the way you want......just disable.......

[simple surge]

This too

[jolly ginkgo]

did you try clearing shader yet?

!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.

[simple surge]

A lot of how we learn what we learn is trial and error

[outer hinge]

I did delete the folder yes

[clear prairie]

Mannnnnn it's a holiday

[fast wharf]

Granted I have 32 gigs of RAM, I was passively reading chat. Enabled that RAM thing for my game. Either I really needed to restart or its a huge help cause I bumped up like 30 FPS lol

I checked mod updates today. I can’t get the launcher to work either

Well cause they don't work on Linux

[simple surge]

You need to enable them

I'll show you how

[outer hinge]

any other suggestions?

[eager turret]

I've been asking for days, for the love of god can someone tell me why certain mods are greyed out, like the PDA task bar mod and how to correct it... I've done full installs, I'm using the new launcher etc...

[clear prairie]

You have to update everything on pc and transfer it over

[magic halo]

do you guys like playing the game with aggressor reshade? do you find it feels the same? or does it feel less eerie because it looks like it makes it brighter?

[tribal hedge]

So update and run it on pc then transfer. It’s weird cause I thought I got it working with lutris

can anyone help me figure out why weapons wont reload

[glacial stag]

If this really works, the game is incredibly epic with these models.

[violet walrus]

idk, the setting for item animations doesnt seem to bring back the ones from the previous version of the modpack, sadness

[magic halo]

obv this is based on PC specs, but are the load screens crazy long?

[simple surge]

@ocean patrol said this might work too #🔨base-gamma-support message

[simple surge]

Depending on how much you have stored in stashes and how long you've had the save, yes

[simple surge]

It is recommended to use at least an SSD

[magic halo]

on nvme

[violet walrus]

whats busyhands? idk what thats supposed to mean for me, sorry im kinda new to modding stalker

[eager turret]

@karmic dagger On mine it's because the game rebind's R as unjam, and reload is on F10

[ocean patrol]

!busyhands

[eager turret]

I'm not sure if that's supposed to be normal behaviour but it's always been that way for me

[raw raft]

The busyhands is the name of a bug that among other things prevents the player from interacting with objects or the weapons player holds.

If you can't:

• use your weapon or reload
• open your inventory
• drink/eat/sleep or otherwise interact with items you have
• correctly see your HUD in the bottom left corner, and it appears like everything is at 0 and it's all red
• transition between locations

Then it means your save file is affected by busyhands. The only known way to fix this is by loading an earlier save that was made before any of the things mentioned above started happening.
It is believed that the most common causes of this bug happening in the first place are:

• Enabling mod Turn this on if you stutter in Mod Organizer (or auto_switch_distance_start value being manually changed).
  ⬆️ If you're using this mod - follow !busyfix ⬆️
• Enabling disabled animations, or adding new animations with custom mods

Certified DISABLED ANIMATIONS that bring busyhands if you enable them:

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

[magic halo]

Id reckon its stuff like "high res load screen" and "high res pda map"?

[simple surge]

So @ocean patrol seems to know more about that one than me, give him a shout

[karmic dagger]

theres no where in my keybinds for reload weapon anywhere

[simple surge]

Could play a part as well, but I don't think it would be anything crazy

[magic halo]

maybe i misread. load times are long?

[eager turret]

@karmic dagger it also binds Y as bring up available ammo. It's in the MCM list not the normal one, although I think there's 3 at the bottom of the normal one

[simple surge]

Yes

[eager turret]

scroll all the way down

[magic halo]

ok. I see. skipping those wouldnt cut much time

thx

[simple surge]

Correct

[wispy widget]

how do you backup your save, about to update and dont want to lose my save

[bleak widget]

hey was just wondering if i could fix quest icons not appearing on my map?

[simple surge]

Just drag the savedgames folder to your desktop

[magic halo]

do you like playing the game with aggressor reshade? do you find it feels the same? or does it feel less eerie because it looks like it makes it brighter?

[simple surge]

That is the file path

[wispy widget]

thanks

[balmy seal]

Hey all, mind if I pop in with a q as well? not sure whats causing this bug on new game launch; just updated to the new installer and did the 0.9 updated (full, with all boxes checked including remove shader dlls bc crap pc and I normally use all or most all of the fps optimization guides). I know mods dont always fully instal so I did it again with no changes; base mods only for these last attempts.

[simple surge]

@wispy widget No problem

One more thing though

[violet walrus]

!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.

[narrow parrot]

If you want a fresh install you have to do this!

#╭📖faq message

Remove the folders too (make new file pathing... I already gave a step by step to a few people about 4-5 hours ago, worked for them if you want to find it)

Then follow this from the top step for step

So im seeing from the bot that those animations were removed because they caused busyhands, or at least thats what i got from it

yep........
