[north turret]

it works if i do anomaly launcher then run

[graceful iron]

what were you launching? dx11?

[north turret]

i tried dx11 dx10 and dx8

[graceful iron]

dx11 and 10 should work just fine

and now it works if you start the launcher first?

[north turret]

yes

[graceful iron]

and game runs fine?

[north turret]

yes

[graceful iron]

okay...

[timid edge]

Was going to ask more about Hip quests. Did you run into any fail scenarios? I picked grabbing the medicine, wasnt sure if that was right choice.

[graceful iron]

the pack runs fine? is the main menu green? if it is then the pack should be fine. but still look through the modlist, i think active mods are supposed to be 238 not 237?

tell me if there are any addons not ticked in mo2

[north turret]

yeah it works fine, i loaded into a game too and it worked good

[graceful iron]

okay

[north turret]

thanks for the help

[long halo]

Hi, is there anywhere I can sell low-condition artefacts ? Or do I have to fuse them ?

[graceful iron]

you have to fuse them

[long halo]

Dang. Alright, guess they'll sit for a while until I can invest in the melter

[graceful iron]

best way to make money is quests

[timid edge]

Yantar scientist.

[long halo]

Noted, thanks

[graceful iron]

they dont buy them at low condition

you have to empower them

[long halo]

Nah, he doesn't buy them, I hauled my ass there with like 30kg worth of them

[timid edge]

Ah. I forget my settings.

[graceful iron]

they are more powerful and expensive now. so try empowering them to use them

[graceful iron]

how about no

[long halo]

Alright, thanks again !

[graceful iron]

btw whiskey did you want to ask about the hip quests still or something?

[timid edge]

Yeah. I wanted to know if there was any situation where i could fail her questline like i failed clear sky.

[graceful iron]

not really, unless she dies. but at the end i think the delivery quest is timed? i am not sure

[timid edge]

How many are there and what quest was that? I'm delivering medicine to jupiter.

[graceful iron]

it gives a choice, deliver weed to yanov or take a package from barkeep

i think you have to do it in the same day

not sure

[timid edge]

Okay. Will run for it then, just to make sure.

[graceful iron]

you can use the guide in AW

he can take you to yanov

cheese

[graceful iron]

this is the last quest, after it hip is available as a companion

[timid edge]

That's right. And it's not cheesy :P

[graceful iron]

say all you want, taking a guide from the start location right to the finish is a cheese

[halcyon mulch]

Lol

[timid edge]

@graceful iron you know if you are able to change out her outfit afterwards?

[graceful iron]

i dont think so

anomaly does not do that and i dont think gamma has any mods that do that

you can give her a backpack for more carry weight

[sour urchin]

the hotkey to switch between scopes is set at the bottom of control bindings and its the Kb_scope setting right? e.g. primary scope to canted sight

[graceful iron]

no

[sour urchin]

...what the blazes does that setting do

[graceful iron]

that one removes/replaces the scope if you have another one you can equip by double tapping it

blazes?

[sour urchin]

hell, what the hell

just confused i guess/frustrated, not sure why but making a new save=keybindings wiped

so i gotta redo em for some wierd reason

so whats the Keybind for switching between scopes

[graceful iron]

what? it should not do that. v is the grenade launcher keybind and its also the scope switch key

[tidal raft]

Probably already answered, but no. There's no failure state in her task chain, except her dying.

[sour urchin]

yea im not sure what to say, decided to fiddle around, clicked new game and things likee detector/pda/sprint, sensitivty even FOV were all stock

also the kb_scope function doesnt seem to do anything, gonna try n reload save n see

[graceful iron]

it does not, you have to change it in mcm

called toggle scope

[sour urchin]

so kb_scope in controls is what, and toggle scope is what? same function and the keybind entry in "Controls" doesnt do anything?

[graceful iron]

same thing but the one in controls is overwritten by the one in mcm

so you have to set it in mcm

[gritty oar]

so im trying to use the winter mod. but none of the textures arent loading in

[sour urchin]

alright now to figure out a good keybind setup that works for me

thanks for the help

[frigid lotus]

I have question, why is trader's overhaul included? Will Gamma economy be changed if I enable it?

[soft leaf]

in my experience nothing breaks and can spice the gameplay quite a bit

iirc the artefacts melter doesn't appear in sakharov's inventory but it could be bad rng

[sour urchin]

is igis tasks safe to enable on a save?

[hollow apex]

Does anyone know the exact prerequisite of unlocking the secret PSU recipes?

I can buy this at many vendors like Dushman etc but my friends cannot, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with rank or relation

[vestal jackal]

Nice! Thank you

[wraith token]

IIRC Grok said they drop off High Rank Monolith. But i could be wrong.

search feature on discord might be able to find something

[hollow apex]

thank you, but monolith only drop battery recipes I think, these PSU recipes are sold by vendors

[zenith thunder]

anyone not reading manual

[hollow apex]

I'm sorry I don't find anything related to PSU recipes in the manual, as I said it maybe has something to do with relations and supply level, but I'm not sure. so I post a question here.

my friend reached 2000+ relation towards freedom faction and skinflint's supply level 5, still no recipes, but I can buy recipes from Eco and Merc with no problem.

[zenith thunder]

you mean the batteries?

exo baterries?

[hollow apex]

it's in the picture above

[zenith thunder]

idk maybe you need to find some manual with a recipe , I unironically didn't dabble into that part of the armors

with the exos and batteries and all

so idk actually perhaps you unlock a recipe from somewhere or you get a manual as I said

those little books

[hollow apex]

I already said i can buy this at vendor so yes

[zenith thunder]

they only have what difference anywya?

probably ecologist sells those as you said

[willow hawk]

It was moved to MCM hotkey menu

I have to remove it

[vernal prawn]

Hello

is there away to download the mods via torrent?

[fossil crater]

Not that I know of, lot of us would be downloading via torrent if it was possible

[vernal prawn]

Thanks 😊

[willow hawk]

Yeah the download part is kind of annoying but it's a one time thing.

Check #old-how-to last messages there are few tricks

[vernal prawn]

Thanks @willow hawk hope to get it working, i had a total nightmare with expiditon pack and could not work out the crashing issue when i went to open invintory

[willow hawk]

Lel. Expedition is bad and untested anyways

GAMMA has been updated daily since December

And with over 3000 testers

And if there's an issue I can patch it fast and people can just update GAMMA automatically to get the patch 👍

[lapis silo]

Does gamma gain much performance from being on a SSD? I feel like it wouldnt make much of a difference

[fossil crater]

Loading screens

[lapis silo]

they are already quite long lol

[fossil crater]

They have a difference

Yeah

[lapis silo]

yes obv, but not much i would imgine

maybe a f ew seconds

[fossil crater]

HDD is like go out walk your door and prepare some coffee

Depends on your standards

[lapis silo]

damn ok

[fossil crater]

Also probably depends on your ram but not sure, Xray works question marks

[lapis silo]

Im fine with waiting for a long time, I guess ill just try

[blissful tree]

HDD gang...

[fossil crater]

But yeah, only loading screens have a difference to me, other than that. No in-game performance whatsoever because this game doesn't have texture streaming vice versa.

[lapis silo]

Ahh okay, that helps thank you

[vernal prawn]

Cheers pal. And good to see BaS mod comes with it. Does this pack come with Warfare mode thats all I want to play as I've smashed the games 100s of time s

[willow hawk]

Well there's more to do

And Warfare Optional pack comes with RC2

Which I'm publishing in the next days

[vernal prawn]

So is this different to the standard Warfare you get with CoP / Anomaly?

Another question any known issues with GAMMA and AMD cards??

[willow hawk]

Yes

#│🔧troubleshooting

• potential issues with SSR add-on

(graphical glitches on the water)

[vernal prawn]

thanks

[strange nimbus]

hey how do you guy's set the free zoom key to a mouse side key. i've been trying to figure it out. the past week specify mouse 5

[boreal mural]

What should i do. I started updating my g.a.m.m.a and i don't know why but downloading just got freezed. Is it okay if i turn it off with task manager and i would try to update again?

[wooden nacelle]

Got a mission to rescue a stalker's friend that got captured by bandits, the Stalker that gave me the mission died on my way to him, mission failed but I cannot dismiss the Stalker I rescued... What do I do?

[boreal mural]

Now i got this error and download is still not working.

[warped ginkgo]

Do you have 7zip installed?

[boreal mural]

I have win rar.

[warped ginkgo]

Install 7zip

[boreal mural]

Oh, okay.

Still same error. I'll try waiting now.

Maybe it won't stuck again.

[willow hawk]

Isolating the key number is annoying. It's in FreeZoom.script in Keybind fixes. Current value is 341, you can try different 340 342 etc until the correct key works for your mouse

You can edit the value > reload save > edit value > reload save etc. No need to reboot the game everytime @strange nimbus

[willow hawk]

7z is included in GAMMA.

Try downloading the addon manually from moddb and put it in GAMMA RC/downloads folder

[boreal mural]

I think now it's okay, now it's downloaded more than before.

Thank you for help.

[north turret]

how do i completely remove HD models without crashes

[wraith token]

Remove add on. ReAdd dicks and fvm. Start a new game.

[north turret]

how can I fix it?

these swalow shadows

[willow hawk]

From an existing save ? You can't

[willow hawk]

Rtgi in reshade?

[north turret]

yep

[vernal prawn]

just reading your AMD tips if i make these suggested changes will it affect other games i play?

[modest depot]

can someone tell me how i can make the world more colorful with commands

[willow hawk]

Open console, type saturation > TAB > increase the value

[modest depot]

much obliged

[vale mantle]

playing as military, loners stopped attacking me for no reason, pda still shows them as hostile

could that be because i was doing missions for barkeep?

[marble quarry]

Hey guys. I updated with the installer, and am not getting this new hover over feature using left alt to show 100% durability stats.

It makes me wonder if I am doing things right.

Is updating as simple as using the update option in the installer?

[willow hawk]

Yes

Update Data > Update GAMMA installation

[marble quarry]

ahh ok

one then the other

thank you

[willow hawk]

Yes

[vale mantle]

why there's no mirrors for europe in #old-how-to?

[willow hawk]

Depends on the day

That's why you have to click the link

[scenic pulsar]

does anyone notice steps behind you when you walk on water?

[willow hawk]

That will be fixed in RC2

(soon)

[scenic pulsar]

nice, thanks!

[wise sparrow]

this happened to me too but i just kept him around until snorks got him. you could always just kill him with the debug menu though.

[graceful iron]

you still lose rep if you delete him using debug, thats why you always keep saves before doing quests that you know can break or are risky

[strange nimbus]

thank you very much. it was 341 and also thank for telling me that i can test stuff without reloading the entire game

[willow hawk]

Only scripts and XML edits. LTX edits require game reboot

[strange nimbus]

good to know

[scenic pulsar]

is the "dump" junkyard? I have no quest marker for this on the map

[graceful iron]

dump is the garbage

he is under the flea market

[scenic pulsar]

thanks!

wow, talk about mislead...not much to go by with the quest dialog lol

[graceful iron]

thats why there is a full channel and a team working on rewriting these quest lines

[willow hawk]

#old-additional-storylines-rewrite

[scenic pulsar]

👍

nice

[surreal hinge]

I'm having issues with free zoom. I've tried disabling the mod and deleting the script and I'm still zooming in game. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

[scenic pulsar]

check gamma keyfixes

the mod is in there too

[graceful iron]

go into the file and delete the script for freezoom

[surreal hinge]

I did delete the script.

[graceful iron]

in this one?

[scenic pulsar]

and disable the one on top

[graceful iron]

and disable this

[scenic pulsar]

fast cat lol

[graceful iron]

so you deleted the script for freezoom in gamma keybind fixes and disabled the freezoom addon?

and its still zooming? @surreal hinge

[surreal hinge]

Hold on, it was there again. Lemme check now.

Ok, got it. Thanks for the help.

[graceful iron]

[gritty oar]

what mod affects the trade ammount for ammo? im max rep and they still barely have any ammo

[graceful iron]

rep? you mean goodwill?

[gritty oar]

yeah

[graceful iron]

goodwill levels up a traders level, you can see their levels in the trade menu

[gritty oar]

i have trade overhaul on is that causing it?

[graceful iron]

they should start increasing ammo types and amounts after level 2

[graceful iron]

yes ofc thats causing it

why would you do that

did you disable gamma economy?

[gritty oar]

ahh okay i though that was trade destockifier

no gamma economy is still on

[graceful iron]

wait you also have trade destockifier ?

[gritty oar]

no

[graceful iron]

trade destockifier does reduce amounts of items sold in total by traders

if thats what you have enabled

idk what trade overhaul does exactly, but its really redundant with how traders are already set up with gamma economy

[gritty oar]

yeah im level 5 with sid and he still only has like 10 rounds of 54r

[graceful iron]

nope something is wrong with that, normal gamma he would be selling more than 60 of those at that level

[gritty oar]

yeah thats why im confused

i turned off overhaul and it didnt change theen i turned off gamma economy and it was the same

[graceful iron]

enable gamma economy back and wait for the trader to restock

takes 24-72 hours in game depending on the difficulty or what you set it to in gameplay options

[gritty oar]

i turned the restock times down to 12 hrs

and you cant restore trade inventory with sid in debug for some odd reason

it says hes non human nor mutant lol

[graceful iron]

what

which trader?

[gritty oar]

yeah sid

its kinda spooky tbh

[graceful iron]

y u do dis

[gritty oar]

what?

[graceful iron]

why did you enable trade overhaul in the first place

[gritty oar]

cause i thought it added more stuff atleast thats what it did in kleans pack

[graceful iron]

it does not and it never did

unless the specific pack changed the addon in a way

[warped ginkgo]

are you using trader overhaul + gamma economy?

[graceful iron]

thats what he was doing apparently

just disable trade overhaul and make sure economy is enabled and wait for trader to restock

[gritty oar]

okay lol

its okay now

[graceful iron]

please no messing with mod list unless you know what you are doing

[gritty oar]

its how i learn okay lol

[graceful iron]

okay

[gritty oar]

i even learned how to edit textures i used a COP mod for the ghillie suit texture kinda proud of myself on that one

[sour urchin]

Anyone here play with magazines redux?

[trim bloom]

Yes

[solid berry]

how do I use this bedspread to sleep, if that's even possible?

[desert robin]

It's not. that's a junk item to salvage/scrap. Real bed is sold by npc/trader or found

Just dumb item bloat i guess

the real one is called 'sleeping bag'

[graceful iron]

disassembling it gives useful junk items for crafting play gamma on hard survivalist

[graceful iron]

basic anomaly knowledge but you need a sleeping bag or to find a base bed to sleep. bed spread is junk item with crafting/disassembling uses

[solid berry]

clearly most of my basic anomaly knowledge does not apply to gamma

reading the desc it seemed like you should be able it use it for sleep

[stark nimbus]

I think in the original “immersive sleep” having it in inventory decreased your chance of waking up early, but it might have been changed in gamma or later patches of the addon (I used this mod with my Anomaly like half a year ago)

[graceful iron]

i would check moddb page or github for the addon to make sure of that, but i didnt know that

still its not really used to sleep so my point stands

[willow hawk]

There's a small wheel on that item icon. It indicates it's just and needs to be disassembled

[desert robin]

I already do

[desert robin]

Hey is there a way to slow the speed of time in the game? It feels so fast...

[north turret]

where is the briefcase? i cant find it

[weak kayak]

Anyone else having issues updating? "Update G.A.M.M.A. data" isn't loading today.

[lapis silo]

its in the main building, you have to follow a pretty straight path over some walkways until you get into some office rooms

[gritty oar]

is there a way i can get EFT modular helms and the mdical system to work with gamma?

[long halo]

Just updated, no issues for me

[warped ginkgo]

you would have to put them in high priority

then make the patches yourself

[gritty oar]

ahhh

[weak kayak]

Fixxed it by reinstalling the installer folder (downloaded from git manually)

[solid berry]

are other stalkers supposed to be able to sell you their full condition guns with the arms embargo and all that?

[willow hawk]

No

[willow hawk]

Ah that's because its missing from trade_preset

Time to make a script....

But After RC2 release

[blazing cedar]

Is there any possibility to "disable" repair system and healing system in GAMMA? I like your visual, these new questlines, all these cool bunch of mods combined together, but these repair and healing systems... Too boring and non-QOL for me.

[sour urchin]

well yea its a modular mod pack, as in pick n choose pieces, so for the healing system likely you wanna disable groks body health system and the repair system, im not sure what you want to remove/disable and what mods that entail

also remember that a lot of these mods come with patches in OTHER mods so those need to be reinstalled without the patches

[willow hawk]

Disable Grok's Body Health System. GAMMA Minimalist HUD and anomaly WPO

[sour urchin]

does mags redux need patches enabled with gamma?

wondering what pressing R to reload just stows n brings out the gun

[warped ginkgo]

no

[warped ginkgo]

you need to equip a magazine

the amount/type of magazines depends on your outift

[sour urchin]

oh like a quickslot style system independant of the f1-2 3 4 key

reminscent of tarkov

the rig pocks in essence

pockets*

[lapis silo]

no, you hold ctrl and click the mag in your inventory, it will add it to your loadout. then you can load it in your gun by hitting R

you can load diff ammo in the mags and use the ammo selector to switch between them

check out the MCM, it has some good options for mag unload behaviour etc

[sour urchin]

will do, debating if i wanna do a playthrough with this for some different vibes

[lapis silo]

I really dig it, so i can recommend it. Only issue is you cant uninstall without starting a new game

Its not everybodies cup of tea though, so be prepared i guess haha

lots of inventory management, but youll get the hang of it

[sour urchin]

played a bit of tetris i mean tarkov

so i kinda get it

[lapis silo]

lmao fair enough

that should do it

[mellow canopy]

Hi guys, a question about Hip. I'm stuck with her and she's useful in a way. But it annoys me having her all the time, I can't disguise anymore and keep waiting for her. Apart from getting her killed, can I park her somewhere with the "stay there" order and forget her to roam the zone alone for a few days ?

[willow hawk]

You can talk to her and "separate ways" I think ?

[mellow canopy]

Nah there's nothing like that

There is even a sentence "can you carry that detector for me" and I tried it. I gave my bear and now I've got no detector. And nothing in her inventory.

[winter gust]

i think you have to complete her questline to get rid of her, though i'm unsure

[zealous haven]

Have to finish her quest for her to become dismissable
The military after my 10th visit to their HQ decied to murder her and it sovled my problem 😅

[mellow canopy]

Thanks guys. I guess she may die someday indeed.

[brisk zinc]

@sour urchin just remember that if you wanna use MagsRedux, you can't disable it midgame

[gritty oar]

is the HD models post outdated? i followed it to the T and it doesnt want to work

[warped ginkgo]

probably yea

[gritty oar]

so is hd models just out of the question now?

[warped ginkgo]

you can use it

you just need to pinpoint your crash

try enabling it, see the conflicts and disable or make patches idk

[sour urchin]

what does weapn hit effects do exactly?

[gritty oar]

can i show you my crash log and see if you can help me figure out the cause?

[grim marsh]

I recently installed this and got all my keys bound. i use my mouse 5 button to change to a main weapon but its also zooming way in when i press it and i looked all over the place and cant figure it out.... please help

[gritty oar]

gamma keybind fixes addon its the zoom scrpit

[grim marsh]

can i get rid of it somehow?

[gritty oar]

yeah you just delete that script

[grim marsh]

is it in the MO2 list or do i go hunting in the files

[wraith token]

wepl? It adds the feedback sounds of hitting shots. All the gore/crunches etc you hear when you shoot ppl

[gritty oar]

right click gamma keybinds fix in mo2 then go to flie location then open scripts then delete zoom @grim marsh

[grim marsh]

YESSS thank you so much

[sour urchin]

ohhh thats what was causing it, ill give it another go i guess, it can be kind cool since im trying it now but also kinda jarring (think i used it in the past and heard CRUNCH from 100yards out while sniping) @wraith token

[wraith token]

yeah the distances are a bit much imo

but i like the mod overall

[gritty oar]

no probs had to ask that same question not to long ago my self

[wraith token]

nice man, thank you for paying it forward and helping out

[gritty oar]

oh yeah now if i can only get my HD models to work thatd be grand lol

[grim marsh]

went in game and it worked, much appreciation man, have a god one imma go kill things now

[gritty oar]

this is my crash log im not sure what to look for in it

[wraith token]

[gritty oar]

so i figured the mp7 thing but now its saying cant open section sim_defualt_killer_5

Put hd models before all the addons

disable the english voices addons, there are 2 i think

Hd models
Thap rev
thap rework
additional storylines
gamma economy
Additional storylines fixes
blackjack compatibilty

[gritty oar]

i figured it out i just needed to make a new start

[warped ginkgo]

all of those addons must overwrite hd models

[sour urchin]

so where are graphic settings stored for anomaly? used a preset for graphic settings and it A) crashed and B) wont start now so need to delete a file and make a new config/ltx file i take it

[gritty oar]

anyone might know what is causing that?

[sour urchin]

had same issue i just went into m02 and reinstalled body health system and chose a preset like no quickslot+ammo items shown and it went away

not sure what causes it

[fading pendant]

I just finished the install and was looking through all the folders on MO2. Where can I find information about the unchecked mods in "179-DLTX", "192 - Optional", and "G.A.M.M.A. Disabled"?

[gritty oar]

did you do the BHS patches @sour urchin

[sour urchin]

no i just reinstalled body health system itself but i chose no quickslot+no ammo display

and chose replace files when prompted

left the patches alone

[gritty oar]

mine is still messed up after reinstall.could i remove it and then try to manually add it back?

[sour urchin]

in mod organizer 2 you clicked reinstall for "body health system redux" and chose to replace files?

[fading pendant]

Is there a way I can change the item icons back to vanilla?

[north turret]

Good evening. Can you please tell me if I can play this modification completely in russian?

Wouldn't it turn out that some of the names of locations or objects will be in english, and the other - in russian?

[gritty oar]

isnt it just in the language settinggs?

[north turret]

I understand that it's in the settings, that's not the issue. It means that even if I set the language to russian in the settings, can I count on the fact that my game will be COMPLETELY in russian without problems, such as part of the names of something in english

[warped ginkgo]

i mean, try it?

[graceful iron]

#custom-textures message

[graceful iron]

there is one addon in DLTX thats disabled by default, and any addons in disabled can cause issues if enabled(other than the npcs cant see through foliage, you can still enable that but AI becomes dumb) optional addons are okay to be enabled but have a look at the mod list first and ask about anything you are not sure about

[graceful iron]

i guess you can disable these

the 2 highlighted addons and cr3pis ammo

[fading pendant]

Thank you very much. But I now have a bigger issue. When trying to load into the game after making a character, it will load for a moment and then CTD with the following error in the .log file.

disable the addon called weird task framework

Thank you again, that completely fixed it.

[frigid lotus]

Is it safe to install companion inventory mod? Because despite asking to not loot any dropped weapons, they still take them and I can't remove them.

[graceful iron]

you can add it at the end of loader and tick in mo2

not sure if its safe but you can back up your save

[willow hawk]

It should be fine. I think mags Redux is in english though. But its Optional

[willow hawk]

Yes

[soft cargo]

is there a laser sight button?

[willow hawk]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

Yes

[soft cargo]

long press of L got it thank you

[steady helm]

how do i open the debug menu through mo2

nvm i got it

[vocal abyss]

Which addons are new? I updated the pack but it seems like there's no new addons in mo2

[graceful iron]

only load order has been released, RC2 is not out yet

[vocal abyss]

oh ok, thanks

[marsh hatch]

Huh guys. So I reinstalled MagsRedux with selected options based on #│🔧troubleshooting to prevent Busy Hands from happening. My question here is: Is there a way to reintroduce ammo counting feature (the holding down F button thingy) instead of the small ammo counter right next to the body HUD? I know it'll causes trouble again but I just really want it back.

[quick fable]

will GTR be implemented? how easy will it be considering it clashes with Enhanced Shaders?

[storm moon]

what is this? I don't remember where I got it

[cedar raptor]

just drop it

I think its about Igi Weird Task Framwork but I had it enabled before an update

Any ideas?

Okay, solved. Had to drop it from Optional to the bottom of the load order like it was before an update.

[stone vale]

hey just wondering can I use propserity , cinematic vfx and modern Ui with this mod?

cause as much as I love it, I wanna make it look better

[fresh aspen]

prosperity is just a reshade so no conflicts (imo gamma reshade is better), cinematic vfx is already there. Modern Ui I think will interfere with some GAMMA ui elements

[stone vale]

ah shiiiittt

[north turret]

@willow hawk my game closes when I switch the language to russian in the game menu

[willow hawk]

Post your log in #old-bugs

Most likely delete localization.ltx in anomaly gamedata folder

[slow topaz]

I think I might have fucked up
MO2 error message didn’t appear the first time lol

Mods are downloading fine but will this be a problem?

[clever hound]

Hello. I haven't played GAMMA in a while due its performance. I ussually got 40 fps max at lowest settings. My specs: Gtx 1650 i7-9750H 16GB ram. And don't get me wrong, I did tried everything to increase performace. Like disabling shaders. But the problem was that, whenever I disabled shaders - game crashed with a Shader compilation failure. Sure, I did deleted Shader Cahce folder and yet it was the same message all the time.

So don't know if that was fixed or not.

[slow topaz]

Does it normally take a lot of time for the installer to finish the solving thing?

Does anyone actually answer in this channel regularly

[warped ginkgo]

solving what

[slow topaz]

Nvm it finished

[willow hawk]

The performance improved in the past week

[clever hound]

Okay, I will trust your words and work. I will try once again and give you feedback afterwards

[sour urchin]

so is rc2 out> not sure what the load order release entails specifically

[willow hawk]

No it's not out

Wait for an #📢announcements

[sour urchin]

alrighty

[graceful iron]

means the exact mod list and the order they are in

[gritty oar]

cant find child bolt?

[sour urchin]

@graceful iron so if i manually install mods and follow the load order im good to go if im impatient and want a particular mod for my playthrough i should be good to go or need to wait for that Grok touch of quality?

[graceful iron]

depends on which addon that is

[sour urchin]

looking at roguelite in particular

[graceful iron]

i think you can add that one

[sour urchin]

im gonna assume thats gonna need a patch or two

[graceful iron]

end of loader

nope no patches

it does not conflict with anything

just add it at the end of loader in mo2

[sour urchin]

alrighty, was gonna do that or maybe give gunslinger a go on CoP

[gritty oar]

is the groks foot steps mod the reason it sounds super weird in water?

[graceful iron]

no, its soundscape

but footsteps in water were always bad in anomaly

[gritty oar]

ahh. it sounds like a wet fart now walking water lol

[clever hound]

HOLY SHIT!!!! 60 FPS - FINALLY !!! So, at first when I louded the game, the performace were trash. I did step by step your performance guide and it worked. This time game did not crashed like it did before. Thx man for your hard work. Finally I can enjoy your game properly

[gritty oar]

would the eft footsteps conflict?

[wooden nacelle]

Does ACCRMCS "Ace" suit still exist?

[smoky junco]

what is the name of the mod for campire only quicksaves?

[brisk zinc]

Yet Another Campfire something

122 in the mod list

[smoky junco]

ty

[brisk zinc]

@willow hawk correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that the only way to get a compatible ACOG for the Ash-12.7 is by using this kit... why

I could understand if the kit could be crafted but in this case I'm "forced" to find it or I have to take it with debug mode
A separate ACOG would be nice to have

And I'm still having that animation issue when I reload the gun

[gritty oar]

whats it doing animation issue wise?

[willow hawk]

Animation wasnt changed

I can ask Rubra to make an Acog model if he has time....

Ran into an issue with Explorers Quests. I have to find a professor in Yanov station, where the marker points, and there is nobody there. Any tips or input on how to rectify this?

[graceful iron]

he should be in the yanov station, wears a white spp suit

[timid edge]

usually the target points directly to the person, i wonder if it doesn't this time. It just points to the middle of Yanov. I didn't think to look around more than the initial area.

[graceful iron]

look around inside the yanov station

maybe he is in the underground room

[timid edge]

sucks. the funny thing is is right where the marker is there is an invisible barrier that i can't move through. It does exactly what it would do if an npc was standing there....

[graceful iron]

...

did you change any model related addons ?

[timid edge]

no

[graceful iron]

can you talk to him still?

[vale mantle]

these markers are broken as shit, one was pointing at electro anomaly in red forest but artifact was in the tunnels with Sinners

[graceful iron]

pretty sure most people who played through any of those quests have already figured that out mr. obvious

[timid edge]

no, there is nothing there. Will have to look around further, or hope it corrects itself.

[timid edge]

that's what i was thinking the issue might be. The marker is just giving a general idea instead of pinpointing, like it did with artifacts.

[graceful iron]

reloading a save/ moving out and in to the area/reinstalling DICK and checking the modlist for any missing or incorrectly installed addons

[desert robin]

So, can someone please help me understand this logic with the weapon and repairing parts.. So a gun is made up of parts, that are damaged or need cleaning. So you can repair all the parts, clean it all, yet it's still in bad condition? I dont understand the logic? What else is there that contributes to the 'condition' apart from the individual parts you just repair and fix, that actually make the entirety of the gun?

Shouldn't the individual parts contribute to the % of condition of the weapon? What else is there?

[vale mantle]

you fix the gun and its parts separetely

[desert robin]

What i',m saying is, What else apart from the parts, make up the gun?

What actually needs repairing?

[vale mantle]

after you get the parts right you still have to ''clean' the gun

[vale mantle]

the gun itself

[desert robin]

Is the parts that MAKE the gun, not inherently doing this already? It doesnt make sense to me.

[vale mantle]

no

have you read the manual?

[desert robin]

You have the trigger, the barrel, the bolt, spring etc, Like, what, the Grip? Are we really just cleaning the grip? I dont get it man.

[vale mantle]

man gun that has the parts right but is covered in shit wont be shooting well

dont think about it dude, just use the suitable kit after you are done with parts

[graceful iron]

the stock

the body of the gun

thats what you clean

and other smaller parts that are not included in the part repair

[vale mantle]

overthinkers

[graceful iron]

https://tenor.com/view/elmo-shrug-不造-i-dont-know-gif-5094560

no he just hates something called having fun in a video game, people like this want "immersion" instead of fun and entertaining. why else do they focus on stupid details that make no difference

[graceful iron]

if you really wanted to know this you could have just googled "what are the parts of a gun"

but no you just want to say "GaMe bAd PlS aDd ImmERsioN"

[frigid lotus]

I noticed that duty expansion is included in the mods to be added section.. But what about the known bugs it has?

[graceful iron]

what are the known bugs? anything mentioned in the mod's description ?

[frigid lotus]

Well there are two, nimble dialogs don't work properly and dialogs when speaking to someone won't be added to messages. Something about a new dialogue system for Anomaly 1.6.0.

Also for some including me, when speaking to Chernobog for the first time at the hospital, the game crashes when you're suppose to blackout. Not sure why though.

I should mention that I reinstalled it for operation afterglow... No problems whatsoever.

[brisk zinc]

So, I've finished Anomaly once and for all, apparently there is someone that's looking for me in Rookie Village but there's literally no one, apart Fanatic, Wolf and one NPC that I can take with me

[wraith token]

Go bug Sid

He will give you a new task in a day or two or sometimes 3

[graceful iron]

a npc that you questioned about sin movements when you were in limansk, he will thank you for "helping him see that he was brainwashed" or something similar and will offer to go with you as a companion and apparently he can fix stuff

like a mechanic

i think he can bug and not spawn, he should spawn in the village and i am not sure but it seems any population settings in zcp under 0.6 can just delete even important story npcs

so make sure thats always (its by default) on 0.6

[timid edge]

Say. Can someone do me a favor and go to Yanov station and get the console ID for Professor Zhuk?

[timid edge]

How do you finish Anomaly?

It should be under Section:

[graceful iron]

finish 3 story lines

each story line gives an achievement

you can find this in the pda

[graceful iron]

you only finished 2 story lines?

i cant remember how each one ends so i cant tell which ending has the "fan" at rookie village

[brisk zinc]

@graceful iron @timid edge I did the Loner stuff, ||both Monolith and Sin are basically dead||, I don't think there's more to do, I still have something about going to one trader and look what he need, it's a main quest as well but it's always basic stuff like "kill those mutants" or "bring me this specific thing", you bring what he wants, he send you to another trader, repeat

Let me know If there is a way to actually see what I've done

[wary dragon]

Does step 7 for framerate optimization have any downsides or is it purely just performance gain?

"7. Turn off core 0 for Anomaly. CTRL+Shift+ESC while in game. Right click Anomaly process > Details > Set Affinity > Untick core 0. Also, click Priority > High."

[pure scarab]

where do i bring the sound of the gasmask berathing and smoke? i find them really immersive

[gritty oar]

was there a change to remove the geiger counter sounds?

[sour urchin]

anyone ever fiddle with config files for WPO? Wondering if its possible to emulate gunslingers mash fire button to clear jam/press R to clear double feed jam

[graceful iron]

one more story line, op afterglow

you will talk to sid and he will tell you about some sort of radio frequency

i will leave the rest for you to find out

[north turret]

Good afternoon. I finally figured out the assembly. Everything is installed, everything works, the game starts - you can play. I made a test entry into the game world and immediately noticed that my FPS was too low for a comfortable game. I understand that Glossy Surfaces SSR is installed in the default build and I have a question: is there any way I can safely disable this mod and all the patches that come with it? Yes, mine is very cool, I don’t argue, but it’s still heavy for my processor

im nott sure too if its on last dawn storyline

i just watched waveys where to find the main quest for it and it lead me to that mission

@willow hawk any help? framerate optimization ended up with this. beef's nvgs and enhanced shaders are still on since it seems to crash with out enhanced shaders

[north turret]

I sincerely do not understand why the author included mods in the assembly, which by default reduce a huge number of frames. why couldn't they just have been made optional from the start?

[broken pendant]

found the scanner delivered to spore but this the only lines i get to him

[graceful iron]

save and try doing the mission again? or wait till night and he should send you a message on the pda

[willow hawk]

Delete shader cache ?

[north turret]

delete always

[willow hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/gnagnagna-gif-4653237

[graceful iron]

...

[willow hawk]

Even on toasters the game runs fine.

By following instructions properly you shouldn't have issues

Your problem is related to shaders, so I guess you didn't disable one of the add-ons ?

[graceful iron]

enhanced shaders causes shader compiler crash when disabled

[willow hawk]

Ask how @clever hound he did

[graceful iron]

deleting shader cache apparently does not fix that

[willow hawk]

He followed the instructions and went from 30 to 60 stable fps

[north turret]

I turned Enhanced Shaders back on because without them I get an error. So I had to turn it back

[willow hawk]

You don't need ES

[graceful iron]

try disabling and deleting shader cache again i guess

[willow hawk]

Then use color grading warm

[north turret]

You do not understand. As soon as I turn off ES, I get an error

[willow hawk]

"I followed instructions"

"But I still have ES enabled btw"

[graceful iron]

y u do dis

[willow hawk]

Because you didn't disable other add-ons mentioned in #old-framerate-optimisation

Your color issue is solved by #│🔧troubleshooting > black white screen flickering

[willow hawk]

Tired of people that cannot follow instructions

––––––––

Black and White Flickering screen or total black screen

While in game if everything is black or flickering black and white type in the console:
cfg_load grading_warm

@north turret

[graceful iron]

i am not sure if they do or not at this point, it seems sometimes even with instructions something breaks. already tried that but i guess trying again cant hurt

[north turret]

Where am I wrong? I disabled ES and deleted the shaders folder. What is my problem? I do what you say.

[willow hawk]

I have tons of things to do and I wake up and see "why didn't the author didn't add this as optional blabla" while it's clearly a PBCAK

[willow hawk]

Reenable ES as it was, delete shader cache, while in game open console

cfg_load grading_warm

[willow hawk]

And that's because you need to read #old-framerate-optimisation

[north turret]

I have already done this many times. But especially for you, I will do it again. Good

[willow hawk]

Then you should know that you just need to reinstall beef NVG

Or disable it

But do as I said here

Reenable ES as it was, delete shader cache, while in game open console

cfg_load grading_warm

ES barely eats Framerate

SSR does

That's why I say that you need to disable the SSR patch in Beef NVG patch

[graceful iron]

do the above and see if it works now, maybe we forgot about a step

[willow hawk]

Now if you really want to get rid of everything:

Disable ES
Disable SSR
Disable Beef NVGs
Disable beef NVG patches
Disable Cinematic VFX
Disable GAMMA Glowstick patch

[graceful iron]

i think he had decent enough fps so no need for disabling everything, its just the color getting messed up

[willow hawk]

And for this, the cfg_load grading_warm should work

[north turret]

Okay. Wait. I start from the very beginning

[willow hawk]

Sorry if I'm a bit irritated, I just have tons of things to do and would rather publish RC2 than doing individual people support

No it's not that

cfg_load is his issues

[graceful iron]

yea sorry about that, just couldnt figure out why the color grading console cmd was not doing much help

[north turret]

You could make your life easier by making these mods that you listed initially as optional. It was not necessary to implement them in the database. From my point of view it was a bad decision. It's my opinion. I would do otherwise

[graceful iron]

the problem right now is that other people have followed these steps and the game worked just fine for them

[willow hawk]

I can run the game with 110 fps stable in 2k

With these add-ons enabled

It's just a matter of rig

[broken pendant]

i will try this

[willow hawk]

Why should I make the life of everyone harder while a handful of people just need to untick 5 add-ons and delete shader

[north turret]

What you can run at home is one thing. Not all people have similar PC characteristics. It would seem an obvious thing. But for some reason you didn't take it into account.

[willow hawk]

So then I should provide a potato setting by default

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-14359850

I provide an optimized setting by default

[graceful iron]

it 2k

i told you

[willow hawk]

That most config will run

[graceful iron]

gamma defaults to 2k res

[willow hawk]

And I provide a nice way in #old-framerate-optimisation for toasters

[north turret]

I didn't say that. I said that the default mods like SSR that eat a large number of frames should be made optional, because the game is processor dependent. No matter how powerful the processor you have, this mod is very CPU intensive

[willow hawk]

What else can I do? Providing an option in the launcher to set graphics to potato friendly ? Sorry to be a one man team #📎to-do everything

[graceful iron]

did you try the steps above? any progress?

he said 11 avx

[willow hawk]

Most people don't check optionals and I will have "but expedition pack is nicer ??!"

And disabling SSR is really easy as described in #old-framerate-optimisation

reinstall beef NVG patches > tick only ES > done

[north turret]

You talk like it or someone else made you brother for the assembly alone. No need to blame me for this, I just wanted to do the best so that people like me would not pester you in the future. Because you yourself are to blame. You've entered very complex graphics in terms of performance mods into the database and forgot that people can have different PC specs from your specs. That's what it was about. Don't point arrows at me. I just pointed out the problem, provided information. So do what you want with this information. I said everything

[willow hawk]

Thanks for your feedback

[broken pendant]

[willow hawk]

You just need a command in the console for that

[north turret]

@graceful iron Now I'll do it. I have a dispute with the author

[graceful iron]

https://tenor.com/view/problematic-stressed-smh-oh-dear-gif-23576897

[north turret]

@graceful iron I disabled everything from what grok listed me and when I start the game I still get an error with shaders

[graceful iron]

you have enhanced shaders enabled?

keep them enabled and make sure beef's is reinstalled

with the correct patches

[graceful iron]

good fps?

[north turret]

Okay. I don't know how it happened, but everything seems to be fine. The problem is that if I disable ES, then when I start the game, I get an error. When I turn ES back on the game starts. This time it started up and, as you can see, in normal color.

I haven't set up the game yet. I reset my options

Now there will be more

it uses the anomaly directory with the executables

is there a problem?

I just don't get it, if the game is launched from the game folder itself, then what is it for?

[graceful iron]

this one is a backup i think

[willow hawk]

In MO2 > right panel > click bin folder > right click any exe > Reveal in explorer.

Then right click the exe in the new window > properties > compatibility> tick "disable Fullscreen optimization"

[north turret]

I know how it's done. This is not the question. And what is the way to do it. It's just that in MO2, in your assembly, exactly the same files are in the bin folder. So I wanted to understand in what way to turn off screen optimization

[willow hawk]

It's launched from the game folder.

These exe are patched exes that the installer applies to the game folder when doing a complete install

[north turret]

Ok

did you enable the ES patch?

oh wait...

Let me explain. If I turn 177 on and off, then I still get an error on startup. Like this)

[graceful iron]

did you do this?

[willow hawk]

Right click Beef addon > reinstall mod > tick Beef's NVG only

Right click beef patch > reinstall mod > tick only ES no SSR

yea i figured that was the case, only reinstalling one of them

and this

@willow hawk It works 🙂

Without error

Ty again, man

@graceful iron too

[graceful iron]

add it to this ?

it only mentions the patch

[willow hawk]

Yeah cause that's the only one needed

Beef NVG is just beef NVG

[graceful iron]

oh

so no need to change it anywas

okay

I mentioned it here in case Quaker also modified it

I haven't reinstalled the patch before. I reinstalled only the main BEEF mod at number 176. And 177, in turn, did not touch at all)

dynamic music makes music change as you move through the zone, stops music when fighting and starts when the fight is over. changes music volume sometimes

[north turret]

I don't quite understand how to do it. What is "zcp"?

[graceful iron]

not sure what EAX does

[graceful iron]

its a mod, the mod configuration menu has settings for some mods included in gamma. zcp changes stalker and mutant spawns and behavior

zone's customization project

[north turret]

this?

[graceful iron]

no

there is another version of it

its enabled by default

[graceful iron]

this is the mod configuration menu

its in the game

[graceful iron]

its this version

[north turret]

Ah, ok

This just preset for sittings, right?

[graceful iron]

yes... basically

i dont know if it has any special configurations other than that

[north turret]

Is there anything to be done here? What is this folder for?

[proven lynx]

read the name

just leave them there

they are mean to be

[north turret]

Should i wait for RC2 or just download the modpack now?

[graceful iron]

no, you can enable the last one (npcs cannot see through foliage) if you want but its not recommended

[north turret]

I am familiar with this mod. Might not show up.)

@graceful iron you said turn it off. is there something wrong with him?

[graceful iron]

it can cause issues and bugs

its disabled by default

[north turret]

nothing else to turn off?

[graceful iron]

no

[north turret]

[willow hawk]

depends how much you can wait

RC2 beta will be released hopefully today

but it might be buggy

because of the shear number of new stuff thrown in

[north turret]

Hmmm, will the download steps be the same as the install section

[desert robin]

I really hope the install steps are condensed and cleaned for rc2.....

[proven lynx]

im gonna assume rc1 saves will not be compatible with rc2

[graceful iron]

grok said they should be compatible

[proven lynx]

oh

poggin

[graceful iron]

testing has yet to be done i think

[north turret]

We can be the guinue pigs for the beta

[graceful iron]

[willow hawk]

To get RC2 working, you will just need to extract the archive, and move your downloads folder of the RC1 (delete its mods folder to save space), as well as the ModOrganizer.ini of the RC1 to the RC2 folder. Then launch the launcher > complete installation > done

so updating from the RC1 to the RC2 is really easy 😉

saves should be cross compatible

I cannot guarantee it yet

[willow hawk]

yes it will be

like no portable.txt

otherwise it will be the same

can't guess where your Anomaly folder is installed sorry

[graceful iron]

[willow hawk]

But honestly install steps are like:

Extract
go to the launcher, launch it
click 1 > 2 > select portable instance > show anomaly
click update data
click complete install
done

[proven lynx]

i hope they are cross compatible cause i just started a save yesterday and dont wanna restart when rc2

[willow hawk]

Otherwise it will be a handful of mods that will cause an issue and they can be disabled

So what I mean is, RC2 will be cross compatible with RC1, but some addons might need to be disabled

[proven lynx]

alright

[desert robin]

Anything being removed? Is there going to be a changelog or like, what's new/different details etc? would be great to read about it

[frigid lotus]

Is it fine to wait until rc2 to come out of beta before updating?

[strange moon]

Heyyyy um my nightvision doesnt work

Any way to fix it?

I have already tried reloading but that didnt work

[frigid lotus]

Try press and hold n. Then press n to switch the intensity.

[strange moon]

I already tried that

[wary dragon]

I am very sorry if someone provided an answer and I didn't see it but:

Does step 7 for framerate optimization have any downsides or is it purely just performance gain?

"7. Turn off core 0 for Anomaly. CTRL+Shift+ESC while in game. Right click Anomaly process > Details > Set Affinity > Untick core 0. Also, click Priority > High."

Also does it have any impact on new CPUs (11th gen i5)?

[vocal abyss]

Is Igi's Tasks mod still unusable?

[graceful iron]

useable but very unstable, if you want to use it move it to end of loader in mo2 and tick

[graceful iron]

it just moves anomaly engine from the core 0 to another core, so it has more to work with. dont think it has any downsides but you have to do this step everytime you start the game

[graceful iron]

does it cause you to not be able to save or open inventory ?

[strange moon]

Nope

That happens randomly anyway

[graceful iron]

so its not busy hands...

[strange moon]

Mhm

[vocal abyss]

ok thanks

[wary dragon]

Alright, thanks a lot,

And I reckon Windows compatibility settings aren't recommended since Anomaly is ported to 64 bit, using DX 11, and the fact there is no mention of this in framerate optimization.

[graceful iron]

compatibility settings?

[wary dragon]

My bad, 1 sec let me get a screen cap

[graceful iron]

what windows are you running?

[wary dragon]

11

[graceful iron]

oh..

[wary dragon]

Oh?

[graceful iron]

not sure how well win 11 runs gamma

i guess its fine

[wary dragon]

No issues so far, perfect frame rate 1440p

[graceful iron]

no need for compatibility settings as far as i know

disable fullscreen optimization

[wary dragon]

Oh yeah I forgot that,

All it does is make tabbing smoother at the cost of performance when it's not disabled, right?

[graceful iron]

not sure about what it exactly does

[wary dragon]

Fair enough, just pre established wisdom, hah.

[graceful iron]

you can probably google it, most likely will pop up as the first result

[wary dragon]

Thanks a lot for the help. Also love what you guys are doing here. I was about to trudge through the mass modding process of my Anomaly install with Groks curated list, but this makes life so much easier.

[north turret]

Is Toxir Air built into the assembly?

[graceful iron]

no

[icy nebula]

Any way to play story modes without the disable miracle machine/brain scorcher missions ? must've done that a 1000 times lol\

do all available storylines need these?

[graceful iron]

there could be some console commands to bypass them, if no one answers here you can try asking on the anomaly server

[icy nebula]

ok hopefully someone answers here...

[willow hawk]

I removed it from RC2, FYI

it was causing issues for few new tasks... not worth the pain

[vocal abyss]

got it

[brisk zinc]

@willow hawk where do I need to put it?

[brisk zinc]

Could be this one? Sid doesn't have anything about radio frequency, maybe I need to wait
(no it isn't)

Okay then

[willow hawk]

Where you want ;)

[rugged star]

any tips on to what type of npc i should sell certain things like mutant parts, artificats, ammo/gun parts etc for best profits?

[brisk zinc]

For mutant parts the best one should be Butcher (in Garbage IIRC)

For artifacts go see Sakharov in Yantar

Don't know about ammo/gun parts since they need to be in good shape, I always sell them to mechanics if I have some but in the end I just keep it or only loot the good ones/what I actually need

@graceful iron ||I'm keeping the secret for myself, I didn't tell anything to Sidorovich||, did I finish Anomaly or is there something else to do?

[long halo]

A certain someone will contact you after some time IIRC

[brisk zinc]

The ride never ends

[long halo]

Sadly it does, unless you try and write the rest yourself

[visual hill]

Are there plans to continue save compatibility with GAMMA versions for as long as possible?

I know RC2 is working for save compatibility but I mean in other releases

[wary dragon]

Which mod is behind artefact durability? Or has that always been a thing and I've been living in a cave in normal Anomaly?

Also are there any recommended optional mods.

Also why is something that sound like a fix not enabled by default such as STALKER names woman fix?

[long halo]

I think you can turn it on in vanilla Anomaly, and you can turn it off in the options or tweak it from MCM

[wary dragon]

Ah ok, thanks a lot. I'll have to find where it's hiding around at.

[brisk zinc]

Don't use that

Stalker names woman fix

It's in Disabled because reasons

[wary dragon]

Noted!

I shall not question the wisdom of the developers,

[weary sable]

I got this quest, to find three artefacts but I can only find two.

The quest also only marks two places and there are no more artefacts in those areas, or anywhere else on the map, that I can find.

Any ideas?

Nevermind, I found it in a unmarked location by accident.

[long halo]

Where ?

[weary sable]

In that building before the construction site.

[long halo]

Thanks !

[weary sable]

Big red thing, didn't even need a detector.

[weary sable]

Seems like its suppose to be that way and not a bug. The next quest also had "find three artefacts" but only two marked on the map. The third one was "somewhere in the factory". So I guess its working as intended.

[long halo]

Good to know, didn't start this yet, thanks again

[rugged star]

I obtained some headgear NVG but I don't understand how to toggle nightvison. I tried N button which is binded to nightvision but it dont work. Do I need some other head equipment?

[weary sable]

Had the same issue for a while but you need to press and hold the key for it to turn on.

[rugged star]

thx!

[weary sable]

And once on, you can just press it to change to NV settings. Then press and hold to turn it off.

[gritty jay]

How do you put ammo counters back on the hud?

[gritty oar]

maybe reinstalling groks body health system in mo2?

[modest depot]

what can you/are meant to do with a flight recorder

just found out that you can give it to lukash

[untold olive]

hey, just trying to figure out if the music and weird (human?) sounds from the Doom Inspect Mod are supposed to also be in the Artefacts Reinvention mod? i tried reinstalling the Doom mod a long time ago to remove those sounds, worked then but ever since the Artefacts Reinvention mod was added i also always had those sounds there and need to delete them every update in order to not have them

[visual valley]

Is there any way to reduce flinching when you're shot in-game? I mean like with medication not by deleting mods lmao

[willow hawk]

RC2 will most likely be the "the last" big version

Then there will be the official release, which will be RC2 with few fixes from #📎to-do

So it will be "forever" compatible with new saves

[halcyon mulch]

I like that idea....morphine injection reduces flinching @visual valley

Addiction when ?

😋

[visual valley]

Dont give Grok Ideas PLEASE

[graceful iron]

[visual valley]

Also yeah legit though the 'pain resistance' thing gave resistance to flinching but idk if that's true or not

I dont really know what it does tbh

[halcyon mulch]

I dont think flinching reduction is in game

[rugged star]

How do I use fast travel? I have visited the location on PDA but still cant clikc on it for fast travel.

[halcyon mulch]

Pretty sure fast travel is guides only

[brisk zinc]

Maybe it's disabled

Look in options

[gritty oar]

fast travel makes my character terribly hungry everytime lol

[visual hill]

Thanks I appreciate the info

Excited for the final release

[rugged star]

@brisk zinc these are only options i find, but "visited only" should count as enabled ye?

[hexed galleon]

I just upgraded the ak12 monolith

It's supposed to have to sights, no? How can I switch between the two? pressing 5/6 doesn't work

[gritty oar]

v

[warped ginkgo]

you're probably traveling with time change enabled

[gritty oar]

ohh yeah didnt think of that

[hexed galleon]

isn't v the grenade launcher?

[gritty oar]

its also switch sights

[hexed galleon]

ok

thanks

[gritty oar]

no probs you can change the gl keybind in the settings

[hexed galleon]

the ak12 has some weird sideways iron-sights than

[gritty oar]

yeah i dont use sights for the gl lol

[hexed galleon]

I don't need a long range ak with 60 round mag, haha

[brisk zinc]

Yes

[rugged star]

hm so i dont understand why it dont work :/

[brisk zinc]

Try to remove "Areas" inside your PDA

And try to click on the green houses if there are any

You can also remove the add-on Limited Fast Travel

The last option is to enable debug mode

[gentle tulip]

sakharov in yantar has them. I think you need max rep with ecologists though

[echo halo]

My first time using GAMMA. I updated following the instructions in #old-how-to and have a question regarding the "Old addons that got updated will be located at the bottom of the load order, you can safely delete them if the updated addon is in the correct position of the load order" step. I deleted the ones that were safe to delete, but G.A.M.M.A. Footsteps was at the bottom as well but I don't see it anywhere else.

It's unticked, at the bottom dunno if I should just leave it alone or what...

[brisk zinc]

You can put it where you want and enable it

It doesn't matter
