oh, maybe you're trying to use an NV scope while NV is on?

[tidal raft]

SKS with what scope?

[brave hemlock]

NV cancells each other

[red silo]

na'

reg scope

[brave hemlock]

hm

[red silo]

yes

[tidal raft]

[red silo]

works fine during daytime

[tidal raft]

What scope?

[red silo]

shouldnt matter

[tidal raft]

It does, what scope are you using?..

[brave hemlock]

you have it with every scope?

[red silo]

updating my game now again.

idk

the name

[graceful iron]

why are you updating ?

[red silo]

only checked this one

[graceful iron]

[red silo]

cuz clearing shader cache made it worse

[vocal gulch]

tbh there is something funky with the sks

[tidal raft]

I really hope you didn't empty the cache using the Anomaly Launcher.

[red silo]

before clearing and after. huge difference

[graceful iron]

did you go to anomaly/appdata and delete the shaders_cache folder ?

by hand

[red silo]

didnt know there was another way

[tidal raft]

Ugghh....

[red silo]

what other way is there

[tidal raft]

Deleting the folder manually.

And it is the only correct way.

[graceful iron]

@red silo

[red silo]

didnt even know that was a thing

[tidal raft]

You were told.

[red silo]

just now yes

[tidal raft]

And this is why we're asking for specifics when it comes to attachments:

[red silo]

bottom left scope

and i meant that it shouldnt matter cuz they should all work

[graceful iron]

ah yes, the pip scope

[tidal raft]

'Should' is not the same as 'will'.

[red silo]

works so good on the sks

[red silo]

hence me here questioning

[rotund moss]

you already beat me up for that ^^

[red silo]

he hit you? how rude

[tidal raft]

Lost three teeth.

[red silo]

dam son

[rotund moss]

and was shitting blood for a week

anyway aint that one of the "3D" scopes, they funky either way

[red silo]

so i JUST updated again. before launch delete shader folder?

ight

[brave hemlock]

Vepr or Saiga?

[tidal raft]

SPAS-12

[graceful iron]

pip scopes, yes its the funky ones that are really bad and feel inaccurate to use while also halving your fps

[rotund moss]

yeah those

[red silo]

delete the whole folder or whats inside?

just to confirm

[graceful iron]

the whole folder

[tidal raft]

It could be the NVG effect being "doubled" by the pip scope.
Since it's a picture in a picture.

[red silo]

sank you

[rotund moss]

i delete the folder usually

[rotund moss]

you might on to something since it kind of looks like i try to have 2 nvgs the one on my head and a nvg scope running at the same time, in other mod packs

[tidal raft]

Yep, the effect is doubled. I get a very intensified NVG image through the PIP-scope.

[torn berry]

does sidorovich no longer have blackjack?

[rotund moss]

anyway anybody know why i cant read the display on the RF receiver or the Geiger counter or any detector? i did update since i saw something related to detector shaders in #📢development but it didnt fix it

[rotund moss]

i cant call him a fat fuck anymore so maybe?

[graceful iron]

i think it will have to replace the files? so probably you need to reinstall the mod after updating

[red silo]

must be the scope. its the same

yolo and fml x1000

[tidal raft]

pip-scopes are bad in general.

[rotund moss]

sounds like live in the zone honestly

[red silo]

lolol. i woudlnt survive there in reality. I have tourettes. screaming curse words = eatin for dinner

yolo again

[rotund moss]

try weapons with non glow irons, low power holos and PSO scopes

usually works fine for me

[red silo]

no choice now

[rotund moss]

you kind of get used to the blur

[red silo]

the sks is fine without the scope. iron sights work fine

[rotund moss]

NVGs in the zone are "cheap"

yeah but beards AK comes with the glow sighs

[red silo]

i usually just spanw my self the best ones at the start

*spawn

[rotund moss]

basicly makes you blind since they have the power of the sun at night

[red silo]

nobody wanna build 3 nvgs for the best ones

[tidal raft]

I did, because I don't cheat.

[red silo]

want a cookie?

[tidal raft]

No thanks, I've already had some oranges.

[red silo]

eww. thats racist

[tidal raft]

My browser doesn't allow cookies anyway.

[red silo]

lol this guy

[torn berry]

the nvg's arent even hard to build if you dissassembly most of the stuff you come across

[red silo]

yea but carrying all that is mad annoying

[torn berry]

just dump it to hip

or any companion

[red silo]

tis tru

im lazy

[torn berry]

my companions are backpacks first and fighting companions second lmao

[tidal raft]

Create a stash somewhere central, dump stuff into it, and roam the countryside.
Rinse & repeat.

[red silo]

same. i started with ecologists for this mod pack cuz i wasnt sure how hard it was gonna be

[rotund moss]

rostok is a good place to start with that

[red silo]

i usually do rookie village and fast travel

[torn berry]

is there no medic for loners at the start?

[graceful iron]

in cordon? no

[torn berry]

sad

[rotund moss]

if there was a doc, sid would miss out on massive profits through meds, why you think Wolf goes missing every other week, comes back alone and everyone with basic medical training is gone?

[tidal raft]

Vaati! :babyrage:

[void storm]

How can I change the zoom hotkey?

[strange moon]

Where is the um

The shader cache?

[graceful iron]

#╟❓general-offtopic message follow these instructions

[graceful iron]

anomaly/appdata/shaders_cache folder

[strange moon]

So i just delete it

[graceful iron]

yes

[strange moon]

Kk

[vapid dirge]

so even with high psy protection i still cant even go as far as radar

do i need to shut down some lab?

[graceful iron]

psy helmet from sakharov

it costs 17k and it was always required for base anomaly runs

[brave hemlock]

just had your scope bug. It happened because Hip was behind me with her light on and I was in front with NV on. So her light got into my scope and that fucks it up. Saving and loading solved it for me

[graceful iron]

the first picture has some moonlight behind you

thats why it looks well lit

[vapid dirge]

so if playing a faction not so friendly to ecologists, you'd have to just blast your way to Sakharov?

[graceful iron]

disguise

[vapid dirge]

damn. my brains really running on one cylinder. Thanks!

[red silo]

She was in stealth for me. Light was off

[brave hemlock]

huh

[red silo]

You said her light got in your scope. It wasn't the issue for me. Her light was off

[hollow loom]

Since you pay off factions but can't get close to them, does that make it impossible to ally yourself with them by gaining rep?

[rotund moss]

since they will shoot your kneecap and then your face if you get to close - yes

[hollow loom]

stealth behind them, then frantically spam the "got anything you need doing?" dialogue and blindly accept it

then sprint away

hope they forget

[rotund moss]

just use a disguise and be quick about it o-O

[red silo]

yea its the moon i guess. Had Hip in stealth since we entered the swamp

[torn berry]

can mags redux be ticked on mid save or is does it need a fresh game

[graceful iron]

it can be added mid save but cant be removed

[pliant garnet]

random question am i supposed to be able to find a savog detector in the cordon ? i was on a mission to find documents and it was in the stash with them. did i just get lucky ?

[tidal raft]

That shouldn't be possible with current settings. Maybe they don't work for task-related stashes.. @willow hawk

[pliant garnet]

ah i figured something was up , i'll wait to see what Grok says, thank you.

[torn berry]

are you meant to get this much ammo with mags redux on?

i usually got like 10 ammo tops, now guys like mercs are dropping about 30 ammo combined from mags

[sharp roost]

I've searched through but I wanna make extra sure, does GAMMA include the roast meat in campfires mod

[tidal raft]

There's a cooking overhaul mod that change cooking a bit. I don't think it's quite what you're searching for though.

[vapid dirge]

does anyone use dynamic relations? does it drastically change things?

[brisk zinc]

@tidal raft

[knotty spindle]

easyhealing - first aid restores blue health, disabled temporary healing mechanic. (false by default) do i need to start a new game ? don't seem to work when actives

[torn berry]

is there any way to check your in gun mag ammo

[valid spire]

is there a way to make traders sell weapons?

[graceful iron]

disable gamma economy and bas injection

[valid spire]

is a new game required

feel like it would be

[hollow apex]

I've noticed GAMMA using an old version of FDDA is that to prevent more serious bugs than busy hands?

[sharp roost]

why dont I have the option to clean the parts on my gun

has a dirty trigger mechanism

[rotund moss]

try having the right repair kit on hand

[sharp roost]

oooh ty

how would I go about repairing an armor I found / its parts?

I don't see an option to replace its fabrics

[rotund moss]

you need some kind of tools to access the workbench or pay a mechanic to use his workbench, the parts needed and the repairkit needed - in gamma the repair kit can have only one use left since replacing parts does not use up charges

oh and make sure the parts are repaired/at 100% or they will be of little use

[toxic copper]

I picked up a dual optics kit for picketinny rails, how do I switch between the optics when their equipped to the rifle?

[rotund moss]

i usualy rebind the keybind via MCM something scopes something to the Key 6, single press will take of the scope double press will change to the next possible scope if its in your inventory

you can find it in MCM under keybinds @toxic copper

[toxic copper]

Cool, thanks!

[hollow loom]

@rotund moss Replacing parts doesn't use charges?!?!?

Oh my GOD that's AMAZING

[rotund moss]

ikr

[hollow loom]

Bro holy shit

[rotund moss]

upgrading and using it for % repairs will tho

[hollow loom]

Ever since misery that shit has made me so angry

Like it's a REPAIR KIT, it's a tool

It makes no sense that the tools would be unusable after 4 times

[rotund moss]

oh and you can use parts below 50% to help repair parts aboth 50% (for the field repair kit or threat) so basicly every part still has some sort of value, even if its only for crafting

[hollow loom]

Yeah I've been gathering parts for a bandit SKAT i found

[rotund moss]

oh for some reason replacing parts on weapons does not "repair" them so you will have to replace the parts and use repair items to get them to 100%

at least on my version i didnt update since yesterday might already got "fixed"

[toxic copper]

Woah, where is that done?

[proper bramble]

have any of you guys tried putting in custom music onto the PDA radio?

[rotund moss]

i did not, since modding with instructions does smoke my sorry disabled brain enough 😦

[rotund moss]

if you have a field repair kit (you can buy them at any mechanic or find them in stashes, sometimes they drop on enemies) or threat (also can be bought at mechanics, and the same to the rest) in your inventory and parts that can be repaired, just double click the kit/threat, this does take charges tho

[proper bramble]

appreciate it, ive made attempts on adding music but to no success. apparently converting mp3 to ogg and adding ogg comments isn't enough. 🤦‍♂️

[rotund moss]

you can ask God - i mean Grok he added a bunch of additional soundtrack to the modpack

[hollow loom]

For the lab in dark valley, am I meant to ||take a PDA from a dead scientist and go get it unlocked so i can read the code for the door?||

[hollow apex]

nope, you get the code immediately after you interact with the corpse iirc

[hollow loom]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

oh my god

it was a message

[static lake]

does armors work like weapons now? you have to replace parts in order to actually make it functional. a mechanic repair won't cut it anymore?

[hollow apex]

it seems so, mechs dont seem to repair my armor at all

[glad cradle]

is the sky supposed to be this bright?

[willow hawk]

Mostly yes. I recommend reducing the Ambient Light main value to about 1.450

[willow hawk]

Yup. And you can't repair armor parts below 0.50 condition (a bit easier that guns where the cutoff is at 0.60)

[hollow apex]

is gamma now activated "ai can't see through foliage" by default? I'm squatting in a bush and enemies seem confused

[uneven prism]

No location has a circle anymore and idk if this is a bug or a new feature

i didnt have areas clicked

[mossy seal]

Is there any reason to not turn fdda on?

[fallow sequoia]

I think so. Sometimes i take cover behind a tree with a bush under it and they don't shoot me while peeking

[fallow sequoia]

Cigarette animation takes forever

[hollow apex]

and if you suffer serious busy hands BUG

[willow hawk]

Yes I did. Makes the game slightly more forgiving. You can't really cheese AI.

RC3 should be easier than RC1 and RC2 actually

But the progression is even slower

(since you can't cheese helmets and armors repair nor North stashes speed run)

[hollow apex]

progression is fine by me, I always thought the skill leveling was too quick

[willow hawk]

It's two times longer now

[royal oxide]

is there a way to prevent mod options reset after updating via installer? it's getting old real quick :/

[plush jackal]

Is the minimap included in Gamma or installed separately?

[glad cradle]

In gamma as far as I’m aware

I haven’t installed anything that isn’t in the mod pack

If it doesn’t appear you might need to enable it in the mcm

I’ve actually been meaning to disable it in favour of the compass just haven’t gotten around to it

[vocal gulch]

Could someone explain this part in steps because i dont fancy deleting my mod folder and doing everything from scratch xD and MCM settings bla bla

if you know what you are doing, you can extract the following texture of the GAMMA RC3\downloads\CR3PIS_ICONS_2.1.4.7z archive: CR3PIS_ICONS\MAIN\1A_VANILLA_MODELS\gamedata\textures\ui\ui_new_actor_armor.dds and add it to the 192- Cr3pis Iconpack addon

[cunning pike]

Hi, first time user. Just installed now. Thanks heaps. Weird issue (I have sprint bound to my side mouse button)... when ever I press sprint, it zooms in... how do I disable the zoom?

[rotund moss]

i think it got explained here, but i had no coffee yet, so take it with a grain of salt
#╟❓general-offtopic message

[cunning pike]

thanks for the infos

[rotund moss]

So im still confused, on how and why the RF receivers and the Geiger counters and i think the bear detectors (didnt got anything bigger than that with RC3), display is really hard to nearly impossible to read. Only visual i have disabled is the agressor reshade since it sadly eats to much performance from my potato and the light with it enabled legit hurts my gremlin eyes
and yes i will ask a few times today as well, as long as i have to ^^

[willow hawk]

No, they are just rare

[rotund moss]

Okay so i think i fixed the non readable display shit, since updating and deleting shader cache folder did sadly not help, basicly all i did was a fresh install, with only a bit of trouble shooting and now it seems fine - all i can assume is that while switching from RC1 to RC3 something got messed up, and or the Update yesterday did not get downloaded/applied properly

[graceful iron]

i think grok said the change to fix the displays needed a complete installation or to reinstall the mod manually

i dont remember which mod it was tho

[rotund moss]

i did all of that and it only now works after killing it with fire and giving it new live with Phoenix dawn

[graceful iron]

[rotund moss]

thats why i was confused like grok released an update addressing the issue 5min after i noticed it for the first time

[marsh hatch]

Ok mate, thanks for the clarification. Was so scared when you posted that long list of removed guns in RC3.

[brave hemlock]

Armsei Ptotecta.

is it good? How good is it? Better than Vepr/Saiga?

what I don't like in my fully upgraded Vepr is recoil

[vocal gulch]

saiga

[brave hemlock]

huh, interesting. Why Saiga?

[vocal gulch]

better than protecta thig

cant decide between veper and saiga tho

i dont full auto thats for sur

[bright seal]

How come I can't unencrypt this PDA?

[wooden nest]

greetings stalkers, is the rc3 somewhat stable?

[blissful tree]

That PDA costs a lot with just that message.

[royal oxide]

It's very stable for me

[rotund moss]

you can ask every mechanic to unencrypt it for you cost 500R per PDA

[bright seal]

Not this one 😛

[rotund moss]

well it legit says kill strelok so might just follow through?

[vocal gulch]

did the other companion from duty get removed? or did i break something ?

[plush jackal]

What is the offline combat recommendation for Gamma? Full / smart terrain / none?

[rotund moss]

im not sure if thats standard but my setting is on Full, i dont had major problems with it so far

well sometimes idiots i need to reach die because of it

and i think it can cause studdering

stuff you can ignore, i think it can cause problems with memory tho

[graceful iron]

i think its a bit CPU intensive so if thats being used too much you can turn it to smart terrain or none

[plush jackal]

Right, will give all options a go

[willow hawk]

Is not good when empty

Takes forever to reload

[rotund moss]

the Protecta is a beast until its empty

also you kind of have to get used to its sighs

[vocal gulch]

full means squads heading to a "smart terrain" = bas or resource they would be engaged, smart they would be engaged on the site... or something like that

[plush jackal]

I know, I was wondering if theres any default recommended by Gamma

[vocal gulch]

ah sorry i just left as is

he is selling heavy repair kit with advanced tool kit handed in only. Is this correct?

[rotund moss]

looks like every other technician after you handed them advanced tool kit

note that after heavy armour there is Exos

[gentle osprey]

how do you replace a barrel without destroying the gun?

[vocal gulch]

ye true

[rotund moss]

#│📚manual for more details, but basicly you need any tool kit or rent a workbench to access the crafting/repair menu, then you need at least one charge of the required repair kit and the new barrel

[stark raft]

Hi

How do you remap the Free Zoom mod to another key?

[gentle osprey]

oh, so you have to destroy another gun to remove it and then attach it to the new one?

[rotund moss]

you also can use the repair kit to replace the barrel via maintain parts option, but that will use up one charge of the repair kit

for that you have the gun and the right repair kit in your inventory and right click the gun>maintain parts>replace/clean barrel

that way you dont need a new barrel but you use up charges

[gentle osprey]

also, when i rented the vice and used it, it played an animation but nothing happened

[stark raft]

Anyone would know

?

[rotund moss]

did you make sure to "confirm" before leaving the workbench?

[rotund moss]

im searching for it in the discord since it got asked a few times gimme a moment

[gentle osprey]

nothing popped up, it just played an animation when i pressed f

[stark raft]

Ahh thank you i did read up on the person who created the mod before coming here but the way he said didnt work for me unless i did it wrong

[rotund moss]

#old-bugs message @stark raft

[stark raft]

on his mod comment section i meant

[rotund moss]

thats the newest for that problem

[stark raft]

Thanks i just have to update the mod I only installed it today

[rotund moss]

if you use the workbench it should open a menu with like 3 tabs (repair, upgrade, craft) and only play an animation if you press ESC to leave it or if you took longer than 5 IRL minutes and the technician "kicks" you of his workbench

[gentle osprey]

then it might be a bug. i'll have a look in the morning. thank you!

[graceful iron]

its not intended but i think grok either forgot to remove it or didnt edit the correct file

[vocal gulch]

honestly i think its neat to finally have someting to spend money on

you cant upgrade the armor fully anyway only to T2

[rotund moss]

wait heavy and exo suits should be behind expert tools?

huh it felt right the way it is atm xD

[graceful iron]

you can craft the heavy outfit kit but its more expensive with a advanced toolkit

[rotund moss]

i would get why tho, since exo tool kit is basicly just extra heavy

[vocal gulch]

ye true you can craft it with adv, forgot that.

[rotund moss]

ah so you basicly have access but you should not be able to buy it from tech who only got advanced tools from you so far

makes sense

[vocal gulch]

indeedilydoo

ye rather buy it than fap around with parts to make one tbh xD

having said that i doubt i have all the parts to make 4? mediums

[graceful iron]

mechanics who dont have expert should not sell the heavy outfit kit

[vocal gulch]

buuuuut this is gooood thoooo

[rotund moss]

fixed the typo

😦

[graceful iron]

oh ok

[rotund moss]

you did read you can still craft them

I'm at 3,545 Rep but still a Rookie Ecologist, making my way to Cordon but I keep having to avoid fights to avoid bumping my rep too high

[sharp roost]

Ok so I feel like I'm doing repairing gun parts wrong, if I field strip the trigger off my gun, then clean it, then put it back, it absolutely tanks my gun's condition?

[hollow loom]

it will drop it a bit

read the guide in the pda

it goes over a bunch of stuff

buying a multitool lessens the penalty

[sharp roost]

it dropped by 30%

hmm ok

[hollow loom]

the logic is that you have to relube the gun ig

[uneven lagoon]

Anyone nelse having an issue where they can't search someone or change ammo types?

[rotund moss]

yes the more goodwill you have with the faction that packed it, the more usefull stuff will be in it

[hollow loom]

found on random body

prolly when i delivered it way back

[graceful iron]

save and load

[rotund moss]

you mean what you get if you do it, or what you lose if he dies? (only way to fail his starter quests) or are you talking about his "kill mutants" or the "find battery artifact" task i dont quite understand which one you talk about sorry

[uneven lagoon]

@graceful iron ty, a bit annoying to have to do with campfire saves lol

[brave hemlock]

in darkscape, where are the anomalies?

[graceful iron]

open console and type save (save name) and enter

load that save through the menu

[dense condor]

I mean being able to initially accept his 'kill mutants' and then the 'anomaly search' quests

[rotund moss]

you can save via opening the conlose with ^ and typing "save [name of your save]" in case you want to avoid gettin fucked by bs

[dense condor]

IIRC, base anomaly has a Rep cutoff once you get past thr Rookie Rep level, im curious if that is still a thing

[uneven lagoon]

Thanks, that should save me froma bit of the frustration

[rotund moss]

i thought you have to go through his crash curse as a loner to "unlock" em but im not sure, honestly never talked to him if i didnt start as loner

[dense condor]

nah, ive done it as an Eco in base anomaly, im hoping it is still the same

you just have to be a low enough Rep by the time you make the trek to get to him but I dunno what the exact cutoff is :/

[rotund moss]

huh, im not sure so thank you for your sacrifice in the name of science

[dense condor]

:p For science!

[rotund moss]

is it save to throw a taunt addon into gamma? i kind of want to use my new found and free mouse button for screaming at stuff

[hollow loom]

lol

drop it in addon suggestions

[tidal raft]

The character does so after a few kills automatically with Voiced Actor, but if you want extra—try it.

[dapper iron]

How can I fix these white dots in grass?. Gloss factor in console dont fix it and neither cfg_load grading_warm in troubleshooting .

[rotund moss]

im asking for personal preference that why its here

[rotund moss]

willco

[dense condor]

How do I disable the degradation of specifically perk artifacts and all artifacts in general?

[tidal raft]

Main Menu > MCM > Perk Artefacts

[dense condor]

i get that it breaks balance but i want to goof around with some of the artifacts, namely the phantom star. i want to observe the denizens of the zone in their natural habitat. for science reasons, of course

i did so but my phantom star continues to degrade :/

[delicate sand]

There is gamma artefact renovation addon, you can edit it as you see fit

[dense condor]

Okay cool, so I just havent found the right item list / script to edit then. Thanks, i'll keep digging. I've already editted the Demonized files and one of the gamma artifact lists

i have saved OG backups ofc :)

[dense condor]

I have edited each item list and script that i can find that mentions condition and degradation and yet my phantom star continues to degrade, i even changed locations to force an updated autosave but the degradation persists :(
I also disabled degradation in MCM
looks like ill have to buy a melter and farm some artifacts so i can charge my phantom star legitly

i think this issue of degradation of the Phantom Star may have something to do with the "6 minutes of use" mentioned in its description. seems like it has a custom script component. the other perk artifacts i have collected do NOT degrade, just as intended

[vapid dirge]

I have decent-ish radiation protection, but Radar/Red Forest etc just dose the shit out of me

do you need 100% protection for northern spots?

[wary field]

is there a way to switch off the NV on your binoculars or even just remove it altogether?

[vapid dirge]

does turning them off not work like usual with binocs?

[sharp roost]

the first care package I got was in red forest.... is there a way to reset it?

[warped ginkgo]

you mean after upgrading them?

[hollow apex]

hi there, my friend used #old-framerate-optimisation to boost his game performance but now he is saying his view is "blurred" when using the scope, is anything related to this in #old-framerate-optimisation so I could tell him to reverse the settings?

[warped ginkgo]

They are blurred on purpose

He could try with the command scope_factor

and change values

1 is the highest

[strong maple]

hello i just have a gameplay question. i went to the car park to do one of wolf's quest and after that ive been taking damage despite using bandages and medkits here are a couple of photo's as iam unsure whats wrong.

[warped ginkgo]

Leg damaged?

Maybe you are trying ti run with damaged legs thus taking damage

[willow hawk]

You can't

[willow hawk]

You run with a damaged leg

[willow hawk]

Looks fine to me.

[strong maple]

Ah ok thanks how do I fix it and is their any good guides for this mod pack ?

[rotund moss]

#│📚manual message

[strong maple]

Thanks appreciate the help guys

[rotund moss]

i was to lazy to write it down, but noticed it took around the same time to find the post and link it

[sharp roost]

Is there something wack with the three soil sample mission,

I'm combing over the area with my detector, I grabbed the artifact but there's no sample

[lusty quest]

Right, I'm most likely not the only one regarding this, tried going through multiple channels here to find a proper answer, but does 5.56 or 5.45 (not AP) supposed to be sponged by even Renegades wearing trench coats or LC suits? Or even Mili people wearing their lowest tier armor? I dumped like 13-14 rounds into a trench coat wearing Renegade until he went down and I get clicked in 5-6

[glossy zenith]

I was starting to suspect the same thing or that the weapon is to blame

I believe youre talking about the FMJ rounds right?

[rotund moss]

what part of them are you shooting at? you can get a general feeling on how stronk your AP is (you are talking about BR3 in case of 5.56 or 5.45 FMJ, but what you are describing nearly sounds like the use of HP - which is holo point both with a BR of 1) if you read this #│📚manual message

[lusty quest]

I do not use HP, that is exclusive to mutant hunting, I use FMJ in those scenarios

[lusty quest]

Aye, AP is scarce, like the manual suggests and I use it for heavier dudes only

[glossy zenith]

oh i know, i feel the same way about the reg ammo

not that reg ammo is rare but that the dudes in the t1 armors were tanking them a bit

[lusty quest]

And which parts? I go body/head, it's kind of ridiculous how many times I clearly tap them in the head with visual blood splat and flinch they get, that after 3 shots they just waddle to the side

So now going for the legs, and this is for trench coat wearing motherfuckers that I suspect use FMJ against me and body me faster when I wear the same exact clothing

My .45 P220 is stronger than an AK or M4 breed of weapon...

[glossy zenith]

you can tune it in the settings menus

make their bullets do a little less dmg

[lusty quest]

Which one? I know there's a setting for damage that you output

[glossy zenith]

but i was starting to think the same thing

give me a minute to check

might be mod config menu

I had to tune mine cause it was too hardcore at first

[rotund moss]

i have to ask this question because for some reason stuff like this does not happen to me, i do end up pumping buckshot into a Skat9 dude tho

[lusty quest]

I have no flack for HP, it works like a charm against mutants, I see the difference immediately between regular .45 and Hydro Shock which 1 shots dogs/cats and 3 shots boars/fleshes

[rotund moss]

basicly BS since .45 acp is only usefull against unarmoured to very lightly armoured targets

[lusty quest]

Completely understandable, but I just in case checked the thread you linked and I honestly do not understand why it's behaving so weirdly

[rotund moss]

so you using FMJ the targets you describe should be within its punching range and you still need over 10 hits to down them?

because thats def not like its intended

[lusty quest]

Yes zir, had one instance about an hour ago, was like 20-ish meters away from the fucker

[glossy zenith]

its somewhere in settings>gameplay setting si believe

[lusty quest]

But a single shot with a .45 bodied him to the head

[rotund moss]

thats like so not how it works o-O wtf is going on in ya alls versions xD

[lusty quest]

I'll have a look

[glossy zenith]

10 shots is a little hardcore lol

[lusty quest]

I'll try and record some, cos it's honestly worrying that FMJ can't even do shit to low tier enemies

[glossy zenith]

I wasnt experiencing it that crazy

[rotund moss]

i would understand buckshot to a well armoured target but not FMJ assault rifles, even the weak ones

[rotund moss]

please do that

i mean grok even made some testing videos and everything you see there is like i experience it in my runs

[glossy zenith]

for me it was just a few targets I had to spray the hell out off. Few and a bit far between. Nothing alarming tho.

If I experience anything like it ill record it too tho

[rotund moss]

it might be that the visuals do not actually relate to what the NPC is packing, but thats just a guess on my side - also sometimes i have a hard time telling apart medium armours from heavy ones (Berrils from Skat9 for example)

either way that amount of shots is downright crazy and def not as intended (they would need way heavier armour than LCs)

[lusty quest]

Yeah, that one I can relate to

In any case, will document my findings and post 'em here

But besides that, in the past day, been having a really good time with the modpack

[rotund moss]

please note that the NPC visuals went through a major overhaul, so it can be that you mistake them for lighter armoured targets - if you are not used to them, not saying that is the case but also a possibility

[lusty quest]

It would be kind of strange that the visual model is wearing a trench coat but in reality the mofo is wearing a Berril

That hasn't occurred though, those which I've killed and looted would wear the armor which is on their 3d model

[rotund moss]

it could be a heavy trench coat with a helmet they have better BR ratings if memory serves

also have seen models like from bandits with trench coats and ballistic vests, didnt notice the vest until i went to loot them, they took quite a few hits (5 body shots) with FMJ, but that was back in RC1 not sure if this model is still around

[lusty quest]

I just got a mission to clear some Renegades from an outpost, got an M4 with me, will put it to the test

[lusty quest]

Shooting starts at ~30 seconds, the initial bit is to show I am using FMJ on my weapons, audio may be a bit loud so turn it down @rotund moss

[onyx depot]

Howdy folks, possibly stupid question. Whenever there's a lack of light on the screen, the contrast seems to drop. Very minor issue, just kinda annoying. It doesn't seem to be related to Resahde, and I fiddled with the Dynamic Tonemap options and it didn't seem to fix it. Any ideas?

Okay weird it doesn't show up on recordings

My monitor being weird maybe

[rotund moss]

monitor settings them self?

[lusty quest]

Same, don't see anything odd in the vid

[rotund moss]

hmm thats wierd, how ever i see a ballistic helmet and a plate carrier vest on that dude, so you might be shooting at a target at least in the BR 4 range with BR 3 ammo either that your your install is somehow fucked. because if that dude was in the BR 3 range your FMJ is suited for he would have been ded or bleeding out after max 5 shots on that range with that gun

[lusty quest]

So a 3rd person model wearing a bandana = a ballistic helmet?

[rotund moss]

i have to go to the swamp more to hunt me some renegades to get a better feeling for their visuals

[lusty quest]

All of them were wearing bandanas or light gas masks

I can do another run and closer to have a better visual

[rotund moss]

didnt sleep for the last 30 hour let me rewatch it again

[rotund moss]

unload your weapon and reload the FMJ on the video for further evidence

i do trust you that thies are your last 28 FMJ in the mag but still

[rotund moss]

ye only looked a helmet while he was wobbling because you hit him my bad

[lusty quest]

I knew it, I fucking knew it

It's fine, I'll do a new recording

[rotund moss]

just being extra carefull because we both know ppl watching after us will ask

[lusty quest]

I completely understand that bit, but I knew that will be a concern

[onyx depot]

Okay, so I cranked the gamma as a test and it seems to be actually visible, not my monitor then.

[rotund moss]

cuz whats on video is def not FMJ behaviour for that visual target, and you didnt miss that many shot due to wobble/something in the way

[onyx depot]

Apologies to jam my issue between your guys' convos lel

[rotund moss]

NP sorry for not being able to help you out with your issue @onyx depot

[onyx depot]

No worries 😄

[rotund moss]

try the old faith full and delete the Shader cache folder

might help and if not you at least killed what will become skynet later on with fire

[onyx depot]

That didn't work, but weirdly, swapping it from Fullscreen to Borderless did. I have no idea what was going on, but I'll take it

[rotund moss]

oh i always play on borderless maybe thats why i never noticed anything like that (borderless seems to help to not crash the game all the time, if you tab out like a mothertrucker, so like me)

[onyx depot]

Lmao yep, I do that. I only had it on fullscreen because it used to stutter more in Borderless for me. It's SO MUCH SMOOTHER NOW MY GOD

[lusty quest]

As requested, unloading, swapping to HP and then swapping to FMJ and then unloading to the same tower Renegade(s) as before

[rotund moss]

okay lets say half went into the pole or missed somehow, still doesnt explain why that fucker is still standing

[lusty quest]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rotund moss]

imma start a test with debug menu and stream it in the lobby, no active mic tho since im tired af and coughing like no ones business

live now

[sharp roost]

Which gun is the SUP for? doesn't say in the description

Ah nvm its for ash 12

[strong maple]

would anyone know how Post healing works ive taken a bunch of meds to heal my leg but it hasn't improved

[tidal raft]

See the Healing-section in #│📚manual

[rotund moss]

#│📚manual message

[rotund moss]

yellow properties first, then white ones

[strong maple]

ive used meds that have white dots for the leg in particular Anabiotics and Fentayl

[rotund moss]

in the example im showing you would heal your arms and legs to a certain amount but not your torso since the post heal does not affect the torso. It would get a temporary boost from the first aid tho, also post heal can not be higher than your first aid

[tidal raft]

However, if you get injured in a limb that has temp. healing on it—the temp. healing will not drain first. Instead it'll directly affect the remaining permanent health of that limb.

[strong maple]

This is what i used first

[rotund moss]

that not first aid but post heal properties

yellow first, white after that

[strong maple]

oh i see

[tidal raft]

It's like applying a splint first, and then casting the limb.

Except very abstract.

[rotund moss]

please stop me from making a "piss first, sugar later" - joke

[tidal raft]

p|mute....

[rotund moss]

solid method but im heading out anyway also any idea why weird stuff happens with FMJ ammo for certain folks? we did a bit of testing and on my end it works as intended but they struggle

[strong maple]

yup its worked appreciate the help guys

[clever hound]

How can I revert back ammo drop rates like from rc1 ? Rc3 made ammo drops like in a missery. Which means CqB at this point is not an option if you are not aiming at the head. Max 10 bullets per body ? Rly ? This is stalker experience ? That's EFP type of shit.

[tidal raft]

Are you joking? When do you ever spend more than four bullets per enemy?
In addition, you can craft bullets from unwanted ones—and even buy bullets if you're just holding down M1 at anything.

[clever hound]

I am not very good player. And having max 30 fps in close quaters does not help too. So I miss half of the time

[tidal raft]

Did you try optimising your settings for frames? #old-framerate-optimisation

[clever hound]

I am in Limansk now. Had like 200 bullets for FN Scar. Right now barely 100. And I haven't reached a middle of the map

It's not working for me. No matter the optimisations my laptop can not handle heat that gpu produces. Which means, gpu overheats up to 90c all the time and limits its self from major meltdown

[tidal raft]

I haven't tested it myself, but you can go into MCM > Drop Condition and increase the amount dropped for bullets.

[clever hound]

In the beggining of the winter, room had 20c and game ran just fine. But winter season came and homes got warmer. So having 26c in a room does not help too for pc cooling

[clever hound]

Okay, ill test it out

[wary field]

Sorry for the late response but yes

[torn berry]

does jupiter count as north in term of getting expert tools?

or do i need to go upwards to like zaton

[tidal raft]

Anywhere above Army Warehouse is considered "north".

[torn berry]

cheers

[willow hawk]

Use bandage / first aid AND then a post heal item

[willow hawk]

ZCP in MCM menu

[tidal raft]

Not Drop Condition?

[dapper iron]

Is there any chance to make the numbers of condition parts large or big? sometimes I have to eat my monitor to read the numbers

[tidal raft]

You can see the status of parts here:

Dirty, Worn, and Functional are above 60%.

Anything else is garbage.

Or "yellow" and "green" texts to simplify.

[dapper iron]

ty 🙂

[tidal raft]

[gritty drum]

how do i install bomsticks and sharpsticks for stalker anomaly

[tidal raft]

Are you asking how to install BaS for Anomaly itself, or as a part of this modpack?

[rapid comet]

how unstable is the warfare overhaul addon? like may break the save bad?

[tidal raft]

It can cause crashes.

[willow hawk]

Yep

And fuck your framerate

[warped ginkgo]

does anybody have 'blur2.ppe' in the mo2 file explorer?

[warped ginkgo]

[willow hawk]

It should be in the ballistic overhaul ?

Or the limb system ?

[warped ginkgo]

as a file?

i can't seem to find anything on rc3

[warped ginkgo]

thanks, it should go in gamedata/anims
right?

[tidal raft]

Yup.

[nimble cargo]

Is there a way to get around the southern most fence in Agroprom? I have my objective artefact over it and i cant get ot it

[tidal raft]

This fence? No, not without no-clip.

If the Artefact rests against the back of the fence you can reach through it with deep-crouch + holding the Use-key.

[nimble cargo]

it reset itself after leaving the area and coming back

[void storm]

Is there a way to look at the goodwill between a trader and myself

[nimble cargo]

go to your pda and look at the relations tab

[graceful iron]

your goodwill with a faction is the "goodwill between you and a trader"

so you can see this in the pda relations tab

[void storm]

I am Duty and it has been 300 from the start even though I did quests for Duty

Ohh I see it

Goodwill

[graceful iron]

if you kill friendlies or fail missions you lose goodwill

a lot of it for killing friendly stalkers btw

[void storm]

Is Barkeeper not considered Duty?

[graceful iron]

loners

[void storm]

what

weird

[tidal raft]

No. Duty and Loners share Rostok.

[graceful iron]

nope, even in soc, he is a free stalkers

[void storm]

that's good to know then

[nimble cargo]

its advised that you only kill the factions that were red when you created your character

[graceful iron]

if you want duty quests talk to petrenko, the general or the random duty stalkers

[void storm]

Does every completed quest give me goodwill?

[nimble cargo]

every completed quest gives goodwill and it depending on whos quest it is, it can give to multiple factions

[cunning briar]

quick question, the buffs/debuffs seen to the right of the Health and body condition HUD have stopped appearing for me completely. does anyone have any ideas? i'm using the modpack as-is, no additional mods and everything as it comes out of the box.

[tidal raft]

Try pressing Numpad Enter

[cunning briar]

thank you so much❤️

[tidal raft]

[grim grotto]

Hi guys,I updated Gamma today and everytime I go with squad into fight,when one of my team kill someone,he gives me a warn not to loot a guy he killed.Is there an option to disable it?

I tried to find it in mod config butno luck..or I just dont see it

[graceful iron]

loot claim

disable that mod

[grim grotto]

@graceful iron ty sir 🙂

[shut gale]

i updated from rc1 to rc3 and now my movement speed is very slow and my stamina drops fast even when iam walking. i cant play like this. what effects the movement speed now?

[tidal raft]

Gotta Go Fast in MCM

[shut gale]

Any recommendation, what value should i choose?

[tidal raft]

1.1 and 1.2 respectively.

[fallow sequoia]

what does handling do for guns

[tidal raft]

See previous debate:

[brave hemlock]

you know what? NV is supposed to highlight warmth.

instead, it highlights light. I get it, highlighting warmth is not as trivial as a lame visual filter

but what bothers me most is the impossibility of using the detector with NV

there should definitely be an NV with a built-in detector 🙂

[brave hemlock]

lolwhat

[willow hawk]

Thermal vision =/= Night vision

[brave hemlock]

oooooh?

[willow hawk]

yeah

[tidal raft]

Night vision devices operate on low-light conditions. Thermal goggles are for heat signatures.

[brave hemlock]

so weird

[willow hawk]

get your shit together

[brave hemlock]

yeah, I mean... why wouldn't we have thermal goggles then?

[willow hawk]

There is

but it's not in GAMMA because compatibility

[brave hemlock]

interesting

[willow hawk]

and also, it makes the game way too easy

Meanwhile the available shaders are nice, and give a nice effect on NVGs

[brave hemlock]

are the compatibility issues serious? I would like that

[willow hawk]

check on google and try it yourself have fun

[brave hemlock]

well, that's not useful

I can ask again

[willow hawk]

[rough yacht]

Do you guys know if the visual effects from looking at an anomaly from a distance is a mod that enhances it's visibility, or is that a change vanilla 1.5.1 anomaly did? I know that there's a mod to make thermal anomalies easier to see but i can't find any other mods on the mod list that changes this

[willow hawk]

I think it's in #old-suggest

[brave hemlock]

what is it incompatible with?

[willow hawk]

Cinematic VFX + Fairer Thermal anomaly

[brave hemlock]

will it break the game or something?

[willow hawk]

shaders stuff I think

It will crash

most likely

[brave hemlock]

well, lol

[willow hawk]

I'm interested in it cause it' makes the game too easy

[tidal raft]

Computer will catch measles, overheat, and catch fire.

[brave hemlock]

I'm not gonna debug it then. But it would be good to have as a late-game device

or maybe even as an optional mod

[tidal raft]

Oracle is good for every situation.

[willow hawk]

there's already a target acquisition scope I think

EOTS

Didn't test it though

[fallow sequoia]

i'm following #old-framerate-optimisation but i don't understand what to do with beef's nvg. i rightclick it and i'm not sure what i'm supposed to "tick" it's just a normal rightclick menu

[tidal raft]

The EOTS creates a box-outline around enemies when you aim at them for a little while.

[brave hemlock]

like in vanilla

pretty good

[tidal raft]

It's a half-million roubles gimmick.

[willow hawk]

Right click reinstall addon : Tick Beef NVG and Beef NVG (ES patch only)

[fallow sequoia]

should i merge or replace

[graceful iron]

replace

[fallow sequoia]

ok thanks

[fading violet]

Has anyone encountered a bug in which the game crashed when opening the PDA? It's especially weird because it only started to happen after I exited the x16 lab

Looks like a Dux Innumerable Characters Kit bad install issue ?

Check the addon file size #│🔧troubleshooting

[fading violet]

Could it be anything else?there is no crash when I switch to dx8

Dux is the same size with the picture in troubleshooting

[icy nebula]

Is there some sort of ceasefire in Rostok now (RC3), I'm playing as military and free stalkers arent attacking me

i can even talk to them, take up tasks, etc

[tidal raft]

Name is a bit wrong, but replace Duty with Loners.

[icy nebula]

not even free stalkers attacking

ahh ok saw ur second

[tidal raft]

Loners = free stalkers

[icy nebula]

line

got it thx. rationale ?

nevermind checked moddb - rostok in duty control

[quick cloak]

Hi, anyone know how to turn off the ramdom patches of radiation?

[willow hawk]

ah true sorry

[red orbit]

Are there any plans/thoughts for RC4?

[tidal raft]

RC3 just released. It's a bit early to tell as Grok's busy squashing bugs.

[red orbit]

just was wondering if there is still stuff he wants to add etc.

[tidal raft]

#📎mods-added-for-next-build

[willow hawk]

There will be no RC4

Next step is official release on moddb, with added guns to the GAMMA Weapon Pack

(like 3 guns changing the meta)

new best shotty (RAPTR, mag fed shotgun with 20 rounds, high ROF and low recoil), new best SMG (Vector in .45 with a switch to 9x19, high ROF, very high accuracy)

After official release some big change will come when CWWP is released and a new client might be necessary

[red orbit]

Okey, thank you for then info

[lusty quest]

I identified the issue, in my save, my M4 has a pretty screwed barrel which in turn causes it to do like shit tier damage. I went to debug mode, spawned some novice Renegades, shot at them with my M4, 5-6 shots to the head to kill them at like 1-2 meters, spawned a fresh M4, insta 1 tap at the same range. Decided to replicate it and was able to, disassembled my old M4, added the broken barrel to the clean one, bam, same 5-6 shots just like with my own M4. Dunno if this is intentional or not though ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tidal raft]

Broken barrels deal less damage, this is intended.

[old geode]

How to kow if a script is working? is there a console command to verify if a script is loaded?

The tooltip to the side is not working in my case

[lusty quest]

I see, personally it is rather silly, cos of the obvious example I gave, but least now I know

[tidal raft]

Better than not being able to shoot at all is it would be in reality with a broken barrel.
Doubly so, since the chamber could explode in your face.

[lusty quest]

I get that viewpoint and possible end result IRL, but am playing a video game, again, an offset has to be made, no hate, an observation, just glad to have it figured out in the end

[graceful moss]

So what's up with the eye-adaption or whatever is making the brightness change depending on where I'm looking?

I don't like it

Here's a video of it (with extra gamma so you can see it more clearly)

https://streamable.com/xnzwxg

Is this a mod I can disable?

[graceful iron]

i think thats supposed to be reflections ?

[willow hawk]

happens with some parts of the map sometimes....

what you want to look at is low lum in MCM menu of Dynamic tonemap

[graceful moss]

uh, so I tried fiddling with that, but nothing happened. I then tried switching the mod off in the in-game mod menu and even restarted the game but nothing changed

It's still happening

[willow hawk]

then it's a map thing

does it happen everywhere ?

I didn't notice such issues, but with specific map spots, which is a vanilla issue

[light timber]

Was the speed of the character slowed down ?

I like it better that way but just asking

[graceful iron]

i think it got changed a bit since RC1

[graceful moss]

I mean, I haven't explored all that much yet. So far I've only really seen it in the Swamps Camp

[graceful iron]

but remember that the skill system mods still affect it over time so with endurance levels you will be a bit faster

[light timber]

yes i know but since 3.0 ? like since last week ? might be my Mcm settings, just got back from playing the miserable Misery wich feels faster

Will i feel like superman at maximum levels ?

[graceful iron]

i dont think so, also you can always tweak walking and running speeds in the mcm for grok's gotta go fast

[light timber]

right!

[willow hawk]

yup it was reduced in a different kinds of ways

Since RC1

since last week, hum, I enabled the carry weight speed yes

so the heavier loaded you are, the slower

also the more broken your legs are, the slower

and as usual guns and armors affect your move speed

[wise sparrow]

is survival skill supposed to go above 15 now? just updated from the initial RC3 release and it shot up to 21

only thing i changed was enabling jabbers rougelite addon

[hollow loom]

Is there a mod or setting that has the same effect as an eyecup for nvgs

I'd like it so I can only see out of the nvg part of the screen when they're active

nvm mcm has a setting for it

[willow hawk]

2 times more levels, 2 times less bonus for each level

So a longer progression to reach the same benefits as before when reaching lv15

[graceful iron]

that sounds nice... but wasnt slowing down leveling good enough to do that ?

even at lowest level gain ?

[willow hawk]

Slowing down levels = less rewarding

[graceful iron]

more levels with less bonuses does the same... no?

[willow hawk]

more levels for the same benefit gives a better illusion of progression

[graceful iron]

illusion

[willow hawk]

[graceful iron]

having the player start with less than base anomaly stats and then end up at level 15 with a bit more than base anomaly stats felt just fine especially after level gain got slowed

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

if this change is going to make someone complain less in #old-feedback-suggestions i guess i can live with it

[strong pivot]

speaking of skills, how can i check their levels? and their bonuses maybe?

i opened the menu where it told me their levels accidentally at some point and then i couldn't close it

can't find it through the keybinds

[willow hawk]

K

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

Just print it

[light timber]

i like that, nice one dude

[strong pivot]

thank you

[willow hawk]

I should make a printable version

[tidal raft]

What if..
We automate the bot to respond to certain phrases?

[willow hawk]

But my next milestone is finishing the Vector (despite not good anims but we don't have an animator...) And revamping the whole NPCs guns profile and stashes guns drop table

[willow hawk]

That would be super neat

Great idea

[tidal raft]

Nice, I said something worthwhile.

[pliant garnet]

is not being able to repair armors at technicians intended ? i am able to pay to repair my weapons but not armor or helmet .

as in the #│📚manual it says its possible but costly

[bold shore]

A question. Is 5.45 AP ammunition supposed to be like this or is it a problem from my end. I need a high amount of AP bullets to kill even a light armored enemy. Thank you.

[somber tusk]

Hey, I have a bunch of gun components, but whenever I try to use the file/multitool/ramrod to repair them none of them show up in the repair menu. any help?

[delicate wharf]

they have to be over 60% for those

[vapid dirge]

was quick transferring removed recently?

[shut gale]

is hunger and thirst related to stamina?

[vapid dirge]

yes. hungrier/thirstier, more the stamina drains

[shut gale]

after updating to rc3 my food drink etc... animations are gone. why?

[vapid dirge]

animations were disabled, busy hands issue i believer

[somber tusk]

ah, right

is there any way to repair parts in lower condition that 50% or are they just garbage

[delicate wharf]

there is a parts toolkit which repairs parts that are like 15% and above or something

but its fairly expensive so 60% parts are a lot better

[somber tusk]

I have an ak74su in 100% condition but the gas block is all fucked up so it keeps jamming anyway

well, failing to feed

[delicate wharf]

if you have the army rifle repair kit you can just right click > maintain part

if you don't have one and can't buy/craft one then yea finding the part is the only option

I think its adv tools to craft

[somber tusk]

I'm in early game poor sod mode right now

[vapid dirge]

is it a regular part of a broke barrel

[shut gale]

thats sad, i liked the animations.

[graceful iron]

yes sadly it had some issues

[graceful iron]

too many issues with them currently its not worth having pretty animations

[plush jackal]

Does sleep heal you in any capacity?

[shut gale]

i got busy hands bug myself a few times, but nothing i cant handle. i just hope it comes back again.

[brave hemlock]

ok, so I've been wearing this Duty uniform for many days now:

and it caused no issues, I didn't even realize it was Duty

And now I'm seeing a message from Duty that an outsider caught in their uniform will be punished

[graceful iron]

its just a random message

[brave hemlock]

oh

also, it seems like some mercs aren't fighting me. Some do, but some just talk to me

Duty and mercs aren't friends, I checked

[tidal raft]

More of a reminder when you are disguised.

[graceful iron]

what faction are you?

[brave hemlock]

loner

[graceful iron]

where exactly are these mercs ?

[brave hemlock]

here:

bottom left corner of outskirts

[tidal raft]

That's scripted.

[graceful iron]

the library

thats normal

[brave hemlock]

huuuh

[graceful iron]

just dont fire at them

you can trade with them

[tidal raft]

Or do, we don't care.

[brave hemlock]

well there was one of them who attacked me, so I killed him, but they didn't mind at all

[graceful iron]

i guess that was a random patrol

[brave hemlock]

right

[tidal raft]

Because he was not part of the scripted scene.

[brave hemlock]

oooh, there was supposed to be a scene

crap, I just teleported in there

[graceful iron]

[brave hemlock]

I didn't realize the game had scenes

I haven't seen any at all

the closest one was when I disabled the brain scorcher the first time, when everything goes dark

[graceful iron]

its not a scene, its just a character starts messaging you saying they wont shoot you if you dont shoot them and explaining some other things

[brave hemlock]

oh, good, I'll get it later then

[vapid dirge]

anyone got good spots for advanced tools? I have basic and expert but cant find advanced for the life of me

[graceful iron]

craft 5 basic tools into advanced

[tidal raft]

Army Warehouse or Yantar.

[uneven prism]

Is there any way to disable the inability to buy weapons and armors

[graceful iron]

disable gamma economy and the no bas injection

[tidal raft]

https://discordapp.com/channels/912320241713958912/912320242301149216/961208618529730580

[uneven prism]

okay

I need a playthrough i can just play

Keep giving up after like 10 missions with all my armor destroyed and no repair kits

thank you

[sharp roost]

Is there a way to repair outfit parts if they're above the threshold?

[graceful iron]

do you mean bellow 60% ?

[sharp roost]

above 60%

[graceful iron]

if they are above 60 you can use sewing thread and field repair kit for armor parts

armor field repair kit i think its called

[sharp roost]

oh I mean like if it's still in the armor

[graceful iron]

no, you can only replace them or repair the armor itself

[sharp roost]

[graceful iron]

how low is the armor condition ?

[sharp roost]

condition's like 98 but I have a part of it that is 77

[tidal raft]

Sewing kits, or replace the parts with a repair kit and basic/advanced/expert toolkit.

[graceful iron]

if armor condition is above 65 you can just use a repair kit...

gamma does not have outfit parts overhaul

[sharp roost]

oh so part condition doesn't matter as long as the outfit condition is high enough?

[graceful iron]

i dont remember seeing a suit with 98 but a 77 part.. that makes no sense

[tidal raft]

Replacing individual parts restore the entire outfit condition.

[wise sparrow]

if the barrel of the gun is in poor condition it will do less damage than is shown on the tooltip

[bold shore]

Oh, thank you. The barrel is, actually, in poor condition.

[icy nebula]

For those playing with headphones - do you keep EAX on in the sound settings? Should it be used with Dolby Atmos for headphones?

[rancid plinth]

is there a manaual to explain health and the health icons in game?

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual

there is a section about healing

[vapid dirge]

was the quick transfer removed completely or just disabled? I gotta get that back

[rancid plinth]

ya its pretty brief didnt explain a lot

been a while sinc ei have played and am confused about healing and health bars

[graceful iron]

each medical item has properties that you can read, basically to heal you will need something with first aid(yellow dots) and then something with post heal(white dots)

an example of this is using a bandage to first aid your arms and legs and then to use an ibuprofen to post heal them

[muted sinew]

how am I supposed to survive blowouts in this? I go to shelters and still die, even in Sid's bunker I just croak

[graceful iron]

there is a certain spot on the staircase that cant be used as a shelter

make sure you are not on that spot (the game will tell you if you are in a shelter or not)

[tidal raft]

Don't wear any artefacts or attachments that give you a psi defence penalty.

You'll die in shelter.

[muted sinew]

I'm literally talking to sid and then I die. tried it with several shelters too

oh that might be it

the artifact part

[graceful iron]

wut... thats something i never knew about

is it caused by something in gamma ?

[tidal raft]

It's been around since Vanilla.

[graceful iron]

thanks

[tidal raft]

[dapper iron]

I have worn parts at 45%,yellow, its normal?

[tidal raft]

That should be orange.

Unless it is outfit parts.

Outfit parts can be yellow around 50%.

[muted sinew]

thx for the answer, it worked

second question though, my NVGs just don't work

they are in the slot

they have a battery

[graceful iron]

hold n #│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[muted sinew]

hold it

why didn't I try this

well now I feel stupid

ok thx

ug guys are gr8

[tidal raft]

Okay, only Dirty and Functional parts are usable in firearms.

Worn, Damaged, and Broken are not.

[graceful iron]

me not stupid this time

[north turret]

is there a way to get traders to sell guns again?

[graceful iron]

disable gamma economy and no bas injection mods in mo2

[north turret]

alr

also im assuming i can turn on trader overhaul aswell then?

[graceful iron]

after you disable the gamma economy, yes

[uneven lagoon]

Anyone else have an issue with the FOV increasing when shooting anything in full auto?

[brave hemlock]

never noticed

[uneven prism]

Where is the objective once in the Argorpom underground

the conspiracy

[graceful iron]

its a known issue

i think it happens with certain guns only

[uneven prism]

wrong entrance apparently

[nimble cargo]

For the combo sights on the RPK-15, is there a way to swap between the main scope and the 45 degree red dot?

[fading pendant]

Does anyone know how or where I could add unused scopes to certain weapons? The Dushmans Saiga, for example, has a picatinny rail but will only let you use red dots. Which sucks because I love using the Saiga as a pseudo-DMR with a PSO and slugs.
In the w_saiga12s_m2.ltx file there's a big section at the bottom labeled "NOT IN USE". Pretty much all of the NATO scopes with any kind of zoom are there, plus some extras. I tried just adding the scopes I wanted to scopes = section on line 82, but since there's no .ogf file for it to reference, it just showed up in-game as having no scope on it.
I tried looking up how to frankenstein another .ogf's scope models onto the saiga m2, and got as far as AXRToolset, before realizing that viewer=/=editor, and I'd need something expensive like Autodesk Maya.

[fading pendant]

I had trouble with that, too. Your underbarrel grenade launcher bind should work.

[nimble cargo]

@fading pendant Thanks, works like a charm

[fading pendant]

👍

[uneven lagoon]

Thanks

[graceful iron]

sorry i dont know if there is a way to fix it for now

[uneven lagoon]

All good. If its a known issue, I'm sure some fix will happen eventually

[nimble cargo]

do expert tools only appear in green stashes or is it just up to chance?

[calm tangle]

They appear the further north you are.

I can't confirm when they start to spawn, but I found Expert Tools in Pripyat / Outskirts.

I am guessing it is like CoP where you obtain them in Pripyat. I was finding Advanced tools in Jupiter and Zaton I believe.

[graceful iron]

its only anywhere further north than army warehouses, so red forest and further

[nimble cargo]

well, looks like i got some walking to do

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual

[calm tangle]

Huh, I looted many stashes in red forest, never got expert.

first 2 stashes in Outskirts both had Expert.

[graceful iron]

its rare, the further the higher chance

[torn berry]

is yantar the only good spot for ecologist missions? i can barely get like 5 of them a day

[royal halo]

when a companion reaches a higher rank, do their combat capabilities improve?

right now i've got seven of them, and Hip, and we wipe Rostok off the map every now and then for fun

[graceful iron]

for all npcs, higher rank means better combat skills and higher toughness

in gamma they also have more carry weight and even increased armor

[royal halo]

this doesn't directly answer my question

[graceful iron]

it does

npcs includes companions

[royal halo]

it's also wrong. my companions do not get higher carry weight when improving their rank

some of them have been at the same max carry weight since I first got them

my guess is that the system does not change their capabilities when they achieve a higher rank

[graceful iron]

the carry weight probably has to do with their outfit but the outfit is based on rank

[royal halo]

but do you know, FOR SURE, that their AI also changes when they go from for example Experienced to Veteran to Master?

[graceful iron]

the rank they start with

[graceful iron]

grok said they get better movement and aim

yes i am sure

https://tenor.com/view/anger-annoyed-dwight-schrute-gif-11782657

[royal halo]

well if grok said so then I guess it must be true. just like he said RC2 saves were fully compatible with RC3

but alright, I'll take the chance and assume it is true

[graceful iron]

i am not dealing with this i need sleep but i am sitting here making sure no one needs help with installing or game questions

you can believe it if you want

[rotund moss]

I didn't want to say anything since its before my coffee but as somebody who had to watch his companions for over 300 hour I can say

yes they do get smarter

Like remembering they have melee

Sneaking up to enemies who did not notice us yet

Actually hitting rats

[royal halo]

alrighty then, good to know

[rotund moss]

Now apologies to cat

[cursive flax]

Who can I sell artifacts to? None of the Clear Sky traders, farm, or Sidorovich will buy them.
