I have a stone flower and a jelly fish.

[rotund moss]

is your stone flower and your jelly fish "weak" means they are not at lets say what everyone never played gamma should be used to 100%?

also i dont know why but CS traders for some reason never bought Artifacts unless you had an addon for that

[cursive flax]

yeah they have basically no "condition"

so should I just chuck them away?

[rotund moss]

no

never

this is gamma even junk finds its use

go to yantar

buy an artifact melter

read #│📚manual

spend days IRL grinding

become god

[cursive flax]

oooh okay

[royal halo]

is the shift to transfer system working for anyone else? I just updated

It appears that this has happened before

[rotund moss]

it did work for me no issues for the last 2 months

updated last yesterday on the RC3 build

FDDA and pick up animations together with the shift transfare did and do cause problems tho

[royal halo]

which mod on the list is shift transfer?

[rotund moss]

im sorry but i have no idea which one it is

but i cant live without it anymore 😦

[royal halo]

same...

it appears at least two others are having the same problem

grok also updated several things yesterday onto github

[rotund moss]

i had a quick read on the #📢development section and cant see anything stating the swift transfare was removed

did good old faith save and reload, or reload from 5min earlier also not help?

[royal halo]

i'll try a new playthrough real quick and see if it affects a new save

[rotund moss]

in that case it would remind me of what i could only describe as a crawling corruption stemming from FDDA (it did soft and then hardlock a save of mine back in RC1 once, but only once and i have no idea how i managed that)

and yes on a new save it should work

if not we are doomed

[north turret]

Shift doesn't work for me as well. If I hold it and click two times then the whole stack is transferred. Just like with Control. So damn annoying when you're full of loot 😩

[royal halo]

it does not work even on a new save. loaded in, made a stash, cant transfer items with shift

[rotund moss]

okay it did work yesterday for me, i will try - even tho i wont get shit done if i start up the game now

[rancid trout]

Hello, I am trying to find a missing squad in Meadow with RF receiver but it won't display a frequency, is Meadow just bugged?

[royal halo]

the displays were bugged. if you update now it will be fixed, go to #💽how-to-update

[rotund moss]

note my "version" was updated last shorty after the Free Zoom MCM keybinding fix

[royal halo]

so it is probably one of these

[rotund moss]

if you are "up to date" and im not, but mine works and yours not, yes

so that still wont help right now but for fix later

[royal halo]

i updated about 30 minutes ago

[rotund moss]

and thats a start

[royal halo]

i just got a nosorog too...

fully repaired and wanted that speed buff

[rotund moss]

nosorogs are overrated in my eyes, still always nice to have one

[royal halo]

what suit do you prefer then

[rotund moss]

Merc SEVA ACE is one of my "oh i have to repair that one asap"

[royal halo]

probably the ACE right

yeah...

[rotund moss]

but i also have a love hate relationship with the nomad

[royal halo]

i cant combine a helmet with that one

[rotund moss]

or the Merc woodland exo

[rancid trout]

I'll give it a go, thanks for the tip!

[rotund moss]

every suit in gamma is helmetless tho

[royal halo]

not according to the description

[rotund moss]

like you can put a helmet on everything if you want to

[royal halo]

also that makes no sense when a helmet is part of the materials lol

wearing a nosorog with a spartan helmet is like cheating

because the spartan helmet is already part of the suit

[rotund moss]

suits got re balanced their old with integral helmet values do not apply

so no you just wear a better exo suit on a frame and what ever helmet you choise for it

and no i dont know why the helmets are part of the parts again

also swift transfer works fine on my end

i do use FDDA but only for actual item use

with the rework disabled

because that crashes my game for reasons beyond my understanding

[royal halo]

what was in the rework? it was always disabled by default

[rotund moss]

im not sure, i think it should improve stuff but for some reason it crashed the game, thats why its disabled until fixed by default by now

okay testing what you said about suits now, cuz what the heck did not notice that

spawned in a Military Stalker Nosorog, Tooltipp says "headgear: not included"

checking parts, no helmet

going to the workshop with it now

in place of where the helmet used to be is a Kevlar AP and Steel plate

you think the last update might fucked things up a bit?

[royal halo]

i can check my monolith nosorog real quick

[rotund moss]

i will spawn one in as well

[rancid trout]

This worked, thanks again!

[royal halo]

the monolith nosorog has the kevlar and ap steel plates but the spartan helmet is on top

[rotund moss]

okay lets both make screen shot so we have evidence

[royal halo]

6 total parts

[rotund moss]

6 in total here as well, but no helmets

this is how it looks in the workshop for me, no helmet in no way up to this point
state of my version as reminder last updated shortly after the Free Zoom Keybind update

[rotund moss]

you did not disable anything in you modpack correct?

[royal halo]

you're probably talking about the lack of green icons

[rotund moss]

example

[royal halo]

yeah i disabled the crappis pack

[rotund moss]

hmm im honestly not sure if that could cause something like this

[royal halo]

also "gamma icons"

[lapis silo]

So you are playing with Vanilla icons rn?

[rotund moss]

does that cause trouble for ppl?

[lapis silo]

You neither have Cr3psis, Maids nor Gamma ones enabled?

[royal halo]

that is correct, I use the default Misery/Anomaly icons

[lapis silo]

Thats the issue

[royal halo]

like I have for the last 10 years

[lapis silo]

Enable Gamma icons and either Cr3psis or Maids, whichever you like more. Vanilla icons do not support helmetless armors afaik

[rotund moss]

now that you mention it, makes awful lota sense

[royal halo]

but it doesn't affect gameplay right

[lapis silo]

No, howe would icons affect gameplay

It just gives you better icons with indicators (or no indicators if you choose so=

[royal halo]

"better" is subjective my friend

[rotund moss]

unless he can get a helmet from taking the thing appart

[lapis silo]

They are better than vanilla, 100%

That is an objective observation, not an opinion lol

[royal halo]

unless you memorized every item part so you have no need for indicators

i dont need some blood drop symbol to tell what a medical item does

[lapis silo]

You can disable them, chief.

[royal halo]

I also know that the yellow pills are vinca, lol

and the red ones are psy-block

[lapis silo]

.

[royal halo]

i dont really care if they're higher resolution

[rotund moss]

yo

nobody bashing on your preferences here

[lapis silo]

Are you done? @royal halo

[rotund moss]

we just wanted to know the fuck causes you seeing helmets

[royal halo]

yea i guess it does make sense

i was thinking it was funny that I was basically wearing two helmets

[rotund moss]

but you actually dont

[royal halo]

yea i know

[rotund moss]

last test would be saving and taking the thing appart

if you get a helmet

well shit fucking broken then

[royal halo]

....I just got a spartan helmet

hahaha

you're not supposed to I presume

[rotund moss]

well either get used to new icons or dont abuse it

[rotund moss]

no you dont ^^

@lapis silo strelok are your dms open i have a question or two?

[royal halo]

well, i dont think i can really abuse this too much. the helmet also takes the same repair kit as the armor does

[lapis silo]

Sure

[rotund moss]

i ment for future runs, you always have that moment where you have a suit but not the spartan

[lapis silo]

Wait, if you got the helmet, that is a different issue...

[royal halo]

lol

[lapis silo]

Not sure you understand what I meant and please don't do that man, I am trying to help you here.

[royal halo]

im only joking around

[lapis silo]

Icons dont affect gameplay but you getting your spartan helmet has nothing to do with icons

[royal halo]

yet the icon mod created the problem

or rather the lack of it

unless it coincidentally has to do with something in the new update

[rotund moss]

your Monolith Noso is unupgraded?

[lapis silo]

No

[rotund moss]

just fully repaired?

[lapis silo]

DO you have this mod active?

[royal halo]

yes

see 192

i might just assume this one might be a liiittle bit important

[lapis silo]

Yeah tick 192, it is literally just armor icons

But further than that I dunno, maybe the mods know something or Grok himself. Will have to wait for them

[royal halo]

great, more people to line up trying to convince me to use cr3pis

[lapis silo]

You really don't get what I am saying, do you.. The mod no 192 is to correctly display the armor icons (without helmets) and it just happens that Cr3psis made them. Nobody is trying to convince you to use Cr3psis Icons, I am trying to fix your goddam game

[royal halo]

this guy has no sense of humor

[lapis silo]

Very funny..

[royal halo]

it was just a funny observation. also yes 192 removed the helmet icon at the workshop, taking it apart now

wait wait, my bad, i just took apart the radsuit

ahaha, i got an exo helm from it

taking this apart gave me a spartan helmet

i gave you the wrong info, because the radsuit does not have the helmet icon on top like the monolith nosorog does

my guess is that "Gamma Icons" has some kind of script that prevents you from getting a helmet from a suit

which is weird considering "Gamma Armors no integrated helmet" and "Cr3pis Iconpack Helmet Less Armors" are both enabled

[lapis silo]

Gamma icons is just .dds files in the texture folder, you can check it yourself in Mo2. I think there might be something wrong with the No Helmet mod itself.

Are you on RC3 and when did you last update?

[royal halo]

literally about an hour ago

[lapis silo]

@willow hawk Having mod 192 and every other Icon replacer deactivated somehow causes Monolith Noso to drop Spartan helmet somehow? Helmetless armors is activated

[royal halo]

i was just complaining about a bug causing shift transfer to not work which has affected several other people

[fading pendant]

oh shit, we can just ping him whenever?

[rotund moss]

not thenever

[fading pendant]

inhale

[royal halo]

strelok can because he's got a blueee name

[rotund moss]

and i think the 2 of us managed to figure out that the last updates since the Free Zoom Keybind fix did something

[royal halo]

get a blue name and then press this and Grok comes running

[rotund moss]

the helmet thing was just something i noticed you mentioning and i know its not intended so i took a further look into it

[fading pendant]

"how to get blue name free 2022 no virus"

i need my mf saiga-12 dmr

[lapis silo]

No, please don't

[royal halo]

gotta write those additional storylines my friend

[rotund moss]

so i delibertly disabled Gamma Armors no integrated hemlet addon and this is what it looks like

[fading pendant]

if anyone can help me create .ogf files out of thin air, it's him. probably.

[rotund moss]

@royal halo can you please check if its somehow disabled at your end by accident? if not its something we can add to the list of things that need a look at

because if i only disable the icons

i still have no helmet

[lapis silo]

It's not like he doesnt read messages he isn't pinged in, you can just text here and he will most likely pick up on it and answer you

[rotund moss]

only way to recreate your screen shot was disabling the armor addon it self

[fading pendant]

should i make my question from earlier into a thread? do i even have perms to do that?

[royal halo]

i cant help but notice you have those green and white arrow icons on the top left which I assume means you have upgraded your gear, but for me it was the default brown gear symbol on mine

You should disable Gamma Icons like I did

[rotund moss]

okay making a screenshot for you to further show what i did

[lapis silo]

How do you mean? Sorry, I dont understand what you are saying

[royal halo]

oh and i also disabled "new mutants icons parts - tdlemon" but I doubt that matters

i have left on Gamma Icons Cr3pis Ammo

[rotund moss]

didnt touch that one during my test so i dont think? but this is xray so you never know

[fading pendant]

earlier i asked about changing the Merc saiga to use all picatinny scopes instead of just red dots. i was wondering if i should make that question into a message thread, and if it would be easier to see that way

[lapis silo]

Ahh, yes, you can best put that in #old-feedback-suggestions and link the thread there, if it possible. Grok regularly reads through that channel

I like the idea, some slug sniping

[fading pendant]

thank you, i will do that

[royal halo]

ok so @rotund moss my mods are like this

ingame is this for monolith nosorog

disassembling the monolith nosorog gives me helmet

[rotund moss]

okay and you play on the "newest" version unlike me, correct?

[royal halo]

the spick and span version from my update an hour ago right

[rotund moss]

because on my end it looks like this without the armor addon and without gamma icons

and like this if i enable the armour addon but still have the gamma icon disabled

thats what i ment with i had to disable the armour addon on my version to recreate your screen shot

and yes same thing if i would turn on and off Cr3pis icons

didnt touch the mutant icons tho, but didnt seem to have had an effect either way

[royal halo]

oh... aha, i think i figured it out

check this shit out

[rotund moss]

enlighten me, so far im fearing the last update fucked something up, we try to figure out if thats the case, well at least i do

[royal halo]

took off my spartan helmet and put it in my stash

[rotund moss]

and now you will show me a helmetless exo right?

if thats the case im both impressed and destroyed at the same time mate, ngl

[royal halo]

ah, well

it appears i made a mistake

no, that did not remove the helmet

[rotund moss]

so on your version regardless of how the icons are enabled or disabled you have helmets in suits that usually came with helmets yes?

while on mine which is missing the "last 3" updates, it still seems to work as intended?

[royal halo]

yeah it's in the parts list

[lapis silo]

Did you disable stat display?

[royal halo]

what stat display?

isnt that it?

[lapis silo]

It's in Nitpickers modpack, it display the bars as %

[willow hawk]

Let me checl

[royal halo]

the king has arrived

looking a lovely shade of green today, grok. or is that the radiation?

[rotund moss]

just let him work plez

[royal halo]

the only thing that comes up under 'stat' is this

[rotund moss]

can imagine better ways to start your day on discord ^^

[royal halo]

to be fair, i did not even view the helmet thing as a bug in the first place. i much more care about the shift transfer thing

[rotund moss]

like i said i just randomly picked up on it, because you mentioned it

im used to break gamma on purpose and hide my findings half of the time, unless its not oddly specific of how i broke it, or nobody already mentioned it

[lapis silo]

Since you also do not appear to have stat display, something else might be the cause, but I am not proficient enough in this to make any good guess

[willow hawk]

Get real and update your shit people

[rotund moss]

Grok i am the one on the older version and i have not that issue xD

[willow hawk]

Delete mods folder –– Launch installer –– update gamma data –– Complete Install should fix it

[royal halo]

grok i just updated like an hour ago

[willow hawk]

There's no issue

[royal halo]

i agree, i dont care about the helmet thing

but it's been this way since I first installed RC3 the day it was released and I didnt think it was a bug

[rotund moss]

but ye ppl seem to have an issue with the swift transfer, which was the actual issue. and since im stupid i cant help them fix it 😦

<<<just good at breaking stuff

[willow hawk]

Just do what I wrote

[royal halo]

grok, mate, I did that an hour ago

[willow hawk]

Don't "update GAMMA install"

NO

you "updated GAMMA install" for sure

[royal halo]

grok, I followed the #💽how-to-update instructions

[willow hawk]

do what I wrote

[royal halo]

i did not hit that button

[willow hawk]

#💽how-to-update message

[royal halo]

holy shit grok

[willow hawk]

Icon missing = problem = do that

Some changes I make can only be obtained through complete install

because I change the install instructions for addons

and update gamma install doesn't reinstall addons if they aren't updated

[rotund moss]

so because i always update that way i basicly never have the problems other have?

explains a lot

i just did it that way because it worked

[willow hawk]

You still miss icons though 😦

I reinstalled the pack yesterday and my laptop and it works

@royal halo sorry about the confusion 😉

[rotund moss]

my last update was yesterday before you made updates, and i disabled icons on purpose to show they had nothing to do with helmets comming from suits who should no longer have helmets ^^

[willow hawk]

But yeah basically when you have issues with the pack, simply follow the "Have issues" section of #💽how-to-update

[willow hawk]

aaah ok

[rotund moss]

i know im breaking your mod pack often, but always on purpose

[willow hawk]

[royal halo]

grok my point is that the icon thing is likely caused by me disabling a couple of the icon mods myself. I am doing what you said and I will check in a minute if anything changes

[willow hawk]

aaaah

Disables stuff, and then complains about problems

[royal halo]

I never once complained

[lapis silo]

[royal halo]

In fact I've been saying I don't care about the icons bug one bit

[rotund moss]

to be fair his armour no helmet addon is active and he still had helmets, the icons didnt do anything with it

[willow hawk]

It is, just disable pretty pistol pack

[royal halo]

That was several days ago when I updated from RC2 and couldn't load the save. And yes, I did disable it, no, it did not work at the time. Too late now

[willow hawk]

Shift transfer works perfectly fine for me

[willow hawk]

Well you report issues in #🔨base-gamma-support and people try to help you

[royal halo]

Grok, you're killing me here

I was answering @rotund moss 's questions about it when I randomly mentioned the helmet icon in my game

[willow hawk]

I'm a bit in a bad mood and got tons of stuff to do, I see an issue for my passion project I try to solve it

but there's no issue

I shouldn't have come to discord with a bad mood sorry

[royal halo]

I'm sorry man

[willow hawk]

#🔨base-gamma-support and #old-bugs shouldn't be for "Hey I disabled stuff and got that funky issue"

cause when I see an issue I investigate it

[rotund moss]

grok thats my fault i was the one jumping on "wait why you have helmet" thing

i wanted to find out why and how and should have taken that to DMs

[willow hawk]

[royal halo]

I have mentioned exactly which mods I disabled to ThirdCain several times, provided screenshots too

To be honest I want to stop talking about the damn helmet icons now

It was no doubt always caused by me disabling a couple of addons, I didn't blame the mod

I was trying to help ThirdCain figure out which addon it might have been, he was wondering if the latest Gamma update did anything

Anyway enough of that

[willow hawk]

Hahaha I get it XD

[willow hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/the-summoning-bad-cat-hitting-broom-gif-10352523

[rotund moss]

anyway for next time "investigations to dms if possible, to not clog up channels" takes notes

[willow hawk]

Or open a thread

[lapis silo]

[whole pewter]

For what it's worth, I've been playing an RC1 save in RC3 with no problems after disabling pretty pistols so that does work.
I've also noticed that RC3 without FDDA seems to have almost completely solved my busy hands issues that were plaguing me almost constantly in RC1 without FDDA.
If it helps anyone else, I also removed the "alt" key from disassembling, which seems to have helped possibly, maybe with the event queue?
I know this isn't a question, I was merely responding to someone mentioning old save issues above.
Thanks again Grok for all your work, and I personally think that you're entitled to bad moods with all the work you put in. I'm sure no one takes any offence at it. If I made this pack, and these channels, I'd be going out at night throwing bricks through random windows to relieve the stress 🙂

[rotund moss]

to jump on that, i use FDDA but only for actual Item use and it wasnt a problem so far, but i noticed that it still can mess with your save a bit (early signs are missing text from disassembling stuff shorty after skinning mutants, as a lootgoblin rat my self i often get into situation of "cleaning the aftermath" of fights i might have not actually been part of. Oh and i mean you get no text message about what you got from disassembling) if you have the skinning animations on. Usually quick console save and then reload via main menu solves that issue.
Can confirm that removing the "Alt" key from disassembling does also seem to help quite a lot

[glossy zenith]

Where to disable?

[rotund moss]

if you want to disable certain animations from FDDA go into your MCM

[glossy zenith]

i meant disable the ALT

[rotund moss]

gameplay settings if memory serves me right gimme a sec to double check

[glossy zenith]

ok perfect. Gameplay settings thats all I needed. Youre good u dont have to.

[rotund moss]

Controll>General

[glossy zenith]

sweeeet

I spend like 15 mins looking thru both menus for stuff sometimes lol

[rotund moss]

option is known as "Hold (ALT) button for disassembly

uncheck it and the deed is done

[rotund moss]

oh i know that feeling

[shy gale]

Is there a way to edit the 50kg weight capacity without messing up any code for the game? I saw that you need to edit the options lua files but that causes issues

[delicate sand]

You can change values in the o_backpack, looks easier

[shy gale]

Where would I find that file?

[delicate sand]

remember that after any update of the gamma installator any changes will be cancelled, so you will have to manually change it again or you can create a separate addon with this file only to keep your changes through gamma updates

[delicate sand]

here for you, just install this as usual with the mo2 and place it after all other addons, then you can easily change all the numbers inside and keep this changes till you don't need them

[shy gale]

Awesome thank you! I appreciate that alot😄

[daring hull]

can anyone tell me where the mod for body damage is, im trying to disable it

nvm found it

[delicate sand]

[willow hawk]

This could help for Busy hands really ?

[fallow sequoia]

i just updated gamma and i'm getting a crash when i try to load my save

i think it reenabled some of the stuff i did when i followed #old-framerate-optimisation too

[calm tangle]

Funny, cause I couldn’t go 20 minutes without Busy Hands in RC1, now I only occasionally get Busy Hands in RC3 when I queue to many actions.

[graceful iron]

crash log ?

[fallow sequoia]

where do i find it

[graceful iron]

anomaly/appdata/logs, it will be a text document you can just drag and drop here

[fallow sequoia]

is it the ammo maker thing

[rotund moss]

from what i gathered and experienced from my own play throughs (i tried to force busy hand at some point to understand how and why) it does seem to help at certain circumstances like having a lot to break down, but i would say just not playing the animations outside from item usage from FDDA helped the most

[graceful iron]

how many mods are enabled and do you have any red crosses ?

[fallow sequoia]

239, i disabled some stuff before and it was working til the update

i still have to disable some stuff for framerate optimization

[graceful iron]

you disabled over 10 mods ?

[fallow sequoia]

yeah some sleep stuff, economy, weapon parts overhaul, body health then shaders for optimization

not exactly sure if i disabled the same stuff i did before

i think i disabled craft and repair overhaul actually instead of weapon parts let me try

[graceful iron]

i guess that was it ?

[willow hawk]

Yes for FDDA Rework 2.0 I plan to only have items animations for healing stuff. Drinks and food are kind of optional, mutant stuff is a nice touch but doesn't impact gameplay. Oh and cigs will receive a new animation. I'll maybe keep the drinks animations and food animations with a toggle, let's see

[fallow sequoia]

i'm still crashing lol i think i'll just reenable everything for now

[willow hawk]

If you have issues, just check the "load order scrambled" #│🔧troubleshooting

[rotund moss]

only "problem" i have is that the actor hold the Cigs like its a fucking commercial then again, ppl want to show of their hard work somehow. Also agree it takes as long to skin mutants with and without animation, so while it looks nice i can live without it

[graceful iron]

you can disable some mods but they have patches and other mods you need to disable with them, you dont just disable the body health system without its patches or you get a crash

[willow hawk]

I'll also make the fake skinning animation shorter

[graceful iron]

ask how to disable each mod you are trying to disable if you dont know what to do with it

[fallow sequoia]

i disabled bodyhealth on its own before and it seemed to work. for the sleep stuff i also disabled anything that sounds related to it and made it work too. i'll try to figure out this crash with the ammo maker

i'll disable stuff one by one for now

[graceful iron]

i think the ammo maker has to do with something with crafting

you can click on a mod to show conflicts (shown in red)

[willow hawk]

but why do you want to disable ammo maker

You must also disable Minimalist HUD

[fallow sequoia]

no it was causing afatal error in the log xD

yeah i did

oh kek i think i found it

i disabled arti recipes overhaul because i thought it meant artifacts

because i also disabled artefacts reinvention

[graceful iron]

arti is supposed to be a mod author i believe

they are called artefacts in stalker (idk why)

[fallow sequoia]

yeah and i just learned how to peek in the files and i found some ammo stuff in it

[shy gale]

@delicate sand just quickly checking, the file you had sent was empty, sorry I was just afk. but if I copy the code for the original o_backpack.ltx file and paste in the rebalancer, I can edit the weights and such in there correct?

[delicate sand]

empty what the

[whole pewter]

yes, please keep fdda with a toggle, or in optional. Maybe it's just me, but it just seems like way too much potential trouble/baggage for a few hand waves/gestures in front of the screen. They don't really do much for me in terms of enriching the game, I'm more focused on killing/looting/staying alive than watching an animation when I chug a drink or pop a pill.

[fallow sequoia]

oh god i'm getting a thing about take_item script now
[error]Arguments : LUA error: ...ly-1.5.1.2/bin/..\gamedata\scripts\take_item_anim.script:35: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value

[graceful iron]

#│🔧troubleshooting

[fallow sequoia]

oh yeah some FDDA stuff was disabled in MO2 by default for some reason after i updated

[shy gale]

Strangely yes. maybe had an error downloading it but will retry it. I assume though its the original code though correct?

[delicate sand]

thats ultra strange cuz on my end the file inside it

[fallow sequoia]

oh i see it

[graceful iron]

fdda causes issues, dont enable it for now

[delicate sand]

Yes just copy o_backpack there and you're good

[shy gale]

Okay gotcha

ill sift through the code to find what I need, im new to lua based stuff so good exercise 😂

[delicate sand]

you literally can edit the whole balance as you see fit

[shy gale]

Indeed, thank you.

[fallow sequoia]

it's working now, thanks

[willow hawk]

for medical items though, it's actually good in battle

Because you can predict easier when to attack etc

So if anything I would only keep Medical items anims

[rotund moss]

so kind of like i do it atm? Item use only?

[calm tangle]

Healing anims make the battles a bit more thought out, and I like that.

[dapper iron]

If you use a tent in the middle of nowhere can you avoid die from emissions?

[calm tangle]

Take away healing, and it will just be F1 & F2 spam mid-combat

[rotund moss]

no?

idk actually i only place them in the 100 rad bar for a laugh

[willow hawk]

Use anabiotic for that, the one that causes a blackout

[rotund moss]

that would be pretty OG stalker, tho i like to run my face against a wall in a different way nowadays

that one?

[calm tangle]

Yea, I didn’t find OG STALKER fights much fun

way to cheesy

[willow hawk]

yes

[dapper iron]

ok, but I wanna know the difference between tent and a sleeping bag and I though maybe the tent save you from emissions

[willow hawk]

always have one

[rotund moss]

i do but i never use them xD

but ye why is there a tent in the game?

[willow hawk]

Tent you can sleep anywhere, sleeping bag you need to be in a building

[rotund moss]

so if there is an blowout during my sleep

[calm tangle]

They are lifesavers, Anabiotics... I just used one to save my run cuz i’m trying to get to pripyat early.

[willow hawk]

you can avoid it with a tent I think

[rotund moss]

as long as im asleep i assume

like no place it and go to bed while the red mist is rolling towards you

the more you know i have like 600+ hours on the clock and only used the tent to cheese npcs with the physics (and maybe crash the game a few times with that)

[rotund moss]

is it normal that i have my 3rd bounty squad going after me? the run is like at the end of its first ingame week

i did kill a lot of bandits and renegades tho

[graceful iron]

it depends on where of the zone you spend the most time and who you kill and near whos base

so if you are near an enemy base they will have a higher chance of sending squads

[rotund moss]

i did spent like 80% of my time somewhere around garbage or inside rostok i would say

it was a bandit squad again

[north turret]

The radiation detector says it has three modes. Is there a way to cycle them? I'm pressing the 8 key and it's just giving me a readout of my current rad level.

[delicate sand]

hold shift

[north turret]

Just tried that with the detector in my hand, nothing happens?

[delicate sand]

You need to press 8 and hold shift at the same time

[dense bramble]

is this a bug or a feature? am currently confused atm.

theres 2 flashlights at new game, one is 50 and the other is 300, taking both and removing both lowers the counter to -250 because the 50 one reverts to the 300 for some odd reason.

[graceful iron]

a known bug, just dont take the 300 one

[slow topaz]

Are there more possible things I can do to reduce the fps stuttering thing other than disabling core 0 in Anomaly’s renderer? It’s getting quite annoying

[graceful iron]

disable cvfx ?

[slow topaz]

Is that ingame or mo2

[graceful iron]

delete shader cache folder in anomaly/appdata after just in case

[slow topaz]

Oke

but disabling that wouldn’t cause the particles square problem?

[graceful iron]

if that happens re enable the mod and i guess you can try disabling shaders and some other visuals to get better fps and hopefully less stutters

[slow topaz]

I kinda didn’t want to make my game look like SoC but oke

looks like it’s the solution

is this normal?

[plush jackal]

Is there a time limit to missions now or now you get punished for 'failing' missions when the mission-giver dies?

[graceful iron]

if the mission giver dies you always lose some goodwill and the mission fails by default

which mission is it exactly tho?

there are a few time limited missions with the new storylines quests

[slow topaz]

I just updated and these errors appeared

[graceful iron]

whats the version of the installer ?

[slow topaz]

The same

3.1

[north turret]

You are a god. Thank you.

[graceful iron]

did you enable powershell scripts ? i would assume you dont need to do that again after installing for the first time

[slow topaz]

Oh

maybe I did

because it’s the first time I’m updating after installing

[graceful iron]

then there is no problem there

[slow topaz]

Those errors mean nothing then?

[graceful iron]

i am not saying that

is it still updating ?

[slow topaz]

Will they cause problems that’s what I mean

[slow topaz]

no
it ended

some time ago

[graceful iron]

if the pack runs and has no red crosses over any mods or missing mods i guess its fine...

i was looking for the last time i seen this error but couldnt find much other than "powershell scripts are not enabled" or "missing powershell 5"

[slow topaz]

My gamma installer still looks fucked even with the 3.1 with the same cut words and not showing the completion bar

[graceful iron]

i think thats just a resolution thing, but it does not affect anything really

it works just fine from what i have seen

[slow topaz]

Well it’s working it’s all that matters

[delicate sand]

[weak kayak]

Haven't played in a looooong time. I thought ZCP was removed long time ago just to run into a burer outside of cordon rookie camp.

[graceful iron]

it got "balanced" a bit but you will still run into powerful mutants early just less of them

you can tweak it in mcm or disable it

[rotund moss]

basicly if you gut "lucky" and run into a giant, it most likely is only one and not 4 of them

[weak kayak]

yeah i remember running into a group of 3 burers and 2 giants approaching behind them a while ago

[graceful iron]

remember, you dont have to fight them

[rotund moss]

yeah some basic zone r*pes you sideways stuff can happen, but nothing like 10 chimeras rushing you as soon as you get to dark valley

[weak kayak]

yeah but running to town doesn't do much good to the local population either

[graceful iron]

mutants have a range and memory, they will forget about you if you move far enough

use anomalies to your advantage

[weak kayak]

ill prob turn zcp off since it breaks some of the lore. like burers are only underground or atleast in dark places

[graceful iron]

you can use the balanced mutants spawns option and see where that goes

[weak kayak]

didnt check if arzis bure overhaul is enabled, wher you could blind them with a flashlight

seems to be removed in rc3...

[graceful iron]

probably was in RC2 but caused issues so got removed

[weak kayak]

Hope they can return someday, loved arzi's mutant overhauls

[graceful iron]

wait isnt it this one ?

[weak kayak]

unless grok combined them it's this one https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/arszis-burer-overhaul

[graceful iron]

oh its an overhaul by itself

[weak kayak]

and this one https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/arszis-psy-and-controller-overhaul

[graceful iron]

with zcp some of these can really break the game

[weak kayak]

yeah probably

If I could I would disable zcp and enable this, flavor over quantity

[graceful iron]

you can probably disable zcp but idk about enabling those overhauls

some conflicts probably

[peak atlas]

the FDDA mods and patches are disabled by default after updating. should i enable them?

[graceful iron]

they are disabled due to some crash

so leave them disabled

[peak atlas]

understood, thanks cat

[willow hawk]

It was never in

[weak kayak]

hmm then it was only on my own list, any chance it will make it to g.a.m.m.a.?

[hollow loom]

@graceful iron u think i should update my game

[graceful iron]

?

[hollow loom]

any bugs in the latest patch that u've seen

i installed it like 5 days ago

haven't updated since for fear of breaking shit

[graceful iron]

best way to update is to do a complete installation #💽how-to-update (delete the mods folder > update gamma data > complete gamma installation) but unless you are running into one of the issues that got patched in the #📢development i guess you should update

[hollow loom]

Is Spleen meant to not ask for tools?

In Zaton

[wary field]

If i attack a faction while wearing a disguise will I avoid the goodwill hit?

[mossy seal]

Are the mercs friendly as unisg?

Nvm is says they are not in the character creation screen but they are

[uneven prism]

is there any way to turn off binocular nvg

[wary dragon]

I just reinstalled my modpack this time around but has anyone had any issues with their icons disappearing, equip animations disappearing (as in not having an armor equip pause animation), crashing in outskirts, or some other issues?

[plush jackal]

How do you open locked cases? https://i.imgur.com/sfIA2ic.jpeg

[nimble cargo]

I believe that you can take it to a technician and pay them to unlock it

[rotund moss]

aint these quest items?

[plush jackal]

I looted one randomly and did not get a quest marker, so dunno.

[rotund moss]

hmmm

might actually as a tech next time you hit your base again

[deep veldt]

It may be a mistake on my end but higher tier NPCs in Cordon can take multiple (4-6) high center mass shots from a sawed-off toz custom at 7 meters or less. Example: CQB at the village in The Cordon, NE from Rookie Village.
Is that damage correct? Medium difficulty with medium loot/progression (survivor?)

[delicate wharf]

are you using buckshot or ap slugs?

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual ballistics, if you were using normal slugs or buckshot on an armored stalker you wont be doing much damage

grok's ballistics overhaul

[hollow loom]

@deep veldt what is the barrel condition on ur gun

if it's damaged it absolutely RUINS damage

[graceful iron]

also that

[hollow loom]

Are there any traders that buy guns for good price

Thinking of making a habit to fix up all guns with clean+ barrels if the $ is worth

[graceful iron]

you cant sell guns unless you disable gamma economy (excluding some guns that grok didnt remove from some trader's sell menu)

[hollow loom]

b-b-b-but

repairman steve playthrough 😦

what about to stalkers

[graceful iron]

i actually dont know

[deep veldt]

Thank you @graceful iron and @hollow loom. The barrel is in good condition.
I believe I was able to sell guns to individual stalkers when I was playing several months ago. I would have to check to confirm.

[quick cloak]

Anyone know how to keybind the zoom button from mouse 5 to mouse 4 ?

[graceful iron]

wait...

i think grok already put it in mcm

sorry about that

@quick cloak you dont need to go to the script anymore, there is a keybind setting in the mod config menu in game now for the zoom

[quick cloak]

Wonderful thank you

[north turret]

Is it the reshade that makes the binoculars have like... a layer of gel slapped on the lenses?

[hollow loom]

The "high contrast sights?"

[north turret]

Idk, I haven't gotten a scoped weapon to see if it's just the binos.

[graceful iron]

shader based scopes i believe is the mod that does kind of change scopes and binocs

also try deleting shaders_cache in anomaly/appdata folder

but it shouldnt be as bad as "having gel slapped on it"

[north turret]

Lol, it was the best description I could come up with.

I'll try deleting the shader cache.

[graceful iron]

[warped ginkgo]

i think the binoculars are inside the 'scope radius fixes' file

that's why they look 'blurry'

[graceful iron]

but why are they blurry tho?

[quick cloak]

Sorry to bother, but MCM doens't have any kep mapping option

[graceful iron]

no zoom?

[quick cloak]

NO

i mean no

[graceful iron]

when was the last time you updated ?

[warped ginkgo]

they are affected by shader driven scopes

[graceful iron]

what did i say then

[quick cloak]

i download the mod pack about 2 weeks ago

[warped ginkgo]

yeah but deleting shader cache won't change it

need to delete the line that adds the effect to the binoculars in scoperadi scirpt

[graceful iron]

you can go to the installer and update gamma data and then update gamma installation #💽how-to-update

[north turret]

How do I do that?

[quick cloak]

Doing it rightnow, thank you for the support

[warped ginkgo]

search for G.A.M.M.A. Scopes radius fixes in mo2

open in explorer then open the scoperadi.script

search for something that should say bino and delete that line

[north turret]

Thank you

[north turret]

Thank you as well

[deep veldt]

For some reason for me it kept resetting when I use the MCM to bind free zoom key

[graceful iron]

resetting how ?

[deep veldt]

I think it is called free zoom

[deep veldt]

Ohhhh looks good. I found it in it's MCM option. Thanks catI will check there!

[graceful iron]

it says !!! but it works just fine, i can change it from mouse button 4 to 5

[thorny nexus]

How large is GAMMA storage wise?

[graceful iron]

downloading anomaly takes 15GB, downloading the gamma folder takes 1GB after its extracted and the full installed game takes just less than 50GB after downloading and installing mods using the gamma installer

[regal vortex]

Yo is the jellyfish from the rookie village supposed to be at zero durability?

[graceful iron]

5-20 #│📚manual artefact reinvention

[noble oar]

How is RC3 compared to RC1? Was gone for a month or two and we're on 3 now

[graceful iron]

#📢announcements message #📢announcements a few messages there have some changes but there is a somewhat full changelog

[dawn hornet]

What mod is the PK-A sight from? I want to check if there are any quality options for the mod, because when i aim in with the sight my frame rate is cut in half wich i would like to avoid. :)

[graceful iron]

its a picture in picture sight, those are just bad like that by default. try using other sights and avoid any sight with yellow text on its icon

[dawn hornet]

👍 Ok

[static lake]

what tools do you need to repair armor parts?

[graceful iron]

field armor kit and sewing thread

[somber tusk]

I keep finding artefacts with like 10% durability which really sucks since their stats are almost useless and I can't sell them
I go to anomalies right after blowouts, too
am I doing something wrong? I am just using the echo detector, does it only find really degraded artefacts?

[hollow loom]

read #│📚manual

explains alot about gamma

[somber tusk]

thanks

[static lake]

I'm guessing you can't rip out armor parts and repair them indvidually like weapons?

[graceful iron]

no, you can only replace them in the crafting menu (vice or tool kit)

if the suit is above 65% you can use the sewing kits to repair it and parts will be repaired as well

[dawn hornet]

😬 uhh woops i think iv broke the texture alignment. My AK-12 has turned in to this. Got a pro tip to try to fix this or should i just reinstall?

[graceful iron]

increase texture quality in game settings

[dawn hornet]

thank you!

[strong maple]

Hello just wondering how do I obtain better factional armour?

[graceful iron]

looting stashes and stalkers are currently the only ways of getting armors and weapons

[strong maple]

Ah ok so how you progress with weapons

Thanks for the info and quick response

[graceful iron]

check #│📚manual for more detailed info on stashes and the progression system

[hollow apex]

is anyone knows why in some very rare cases the two factions normally hate each other will suddenly join forces with no "Dynamic relations" on?

[graceful iron]

which factions exactly ?

[hollow apex]

well in my case it's the merc with loners, but my save is corrupt so no screenshot, my friend case is UNISG with loners

[graceful iron]

multifuel stove cant cook using charcoal or campfire ?

[graceful iron]

if you are a merc and you shut off the brain scorcher loners become friendly with you

[hollow apex]

so what about UNISG

[graceful iron]

i have no idea...

it could be the same as mercs ?

did he shut the brain scorcher ?

[willow hawk]

You play as Merc ?

[willow hawk]

Yep you need liquid fuel

[graceful iron]

[hollow apex]

yes merc case I think @graceful iron is right I recall there's a message after I turn off that machine says loner is friendly, but UNISG I don't know

[graceful iron]

but what about the basic recipes that you can cook with a cooking kit? i thought the multifuel stove was supposed to just be a direct upgrade from all other cooking kits

[willow hawk]

Yes it's a story thing

[hollow apex]

so what is the trigger event of UNISG be friend with loners?

[willow hawk]

Well no. You can cook the best recipes but need fuel

And it has endless uses

[willow hawk]

Degatyev stuff ?

[graceful iron]

i mean basic recipes that only require the meat

[willow hawk]

The multi fuel stove cannot use firecamps

Because it doesn't work with charcoal

[graceful iron]

ok.. my fault

[hollow apex]

yes he did

[willow hawk]

Honestly I don't like it so much.... It's a lot of investment to cook high tier mutant food

So what I'm doing is buffing these food like a madman

[graceful iron]

i noticed its good for mid-late game long lasting buffs from food

thats what i used it for

[willow hawk]

Buffs duration is about 6 to 8 in game hours

[deep veldt]

Yeah I usually cook low tier or medium tier and take the rads

[graceful iron]

ok then back to the good old cooking kit

[willow hawk]

I'll revamp the buffs at some point so they are maybe stronger even

But basically it's an endgame thing for food yes

[deep veldt]

RC3 is so good Grok! Great work!

[willow hawk]

Cook a lot of mutant meat at your base with it, take these with you, and enjoy super carry weight buffs all day long etc

[willow hawk]

Thanks !

So yeah basic meat cooker are still useful

[plush jackal]

Thats the goal or current state?

I haven't bothered with cooking, leftover from normal Anomaly

[graceful iron]

playing on harder difficulties makes buying food really hard especially early game

[plush jackal]

Playing on highest/highest diff, buying food isn't too bad

Mostly looting

[graceful iron]

huh...

[plush jackal]

In a way, Gamma is easier because it has 1 stalker per squad so you get lot of missions.

[fallow sequoia]

Mutant foodies are usually lighter than other food so i started carrying only those

[plush jackal]

Yea, I started buying those. Will start cooking.

[willow hawk]

current state

buffs will be stronger soon though I think

[willow hawk]

Mutant food is free and gives a lot of calories. There's no reason not to cook it, and now you just need to use a cooking kit near a firecamp

[plush jackal]

Yea, doesn't seem to irridiate you much

But buffs? Didn't know that

[willow hawk]

That's for high tier mutant meat

needs the multi fuel stove cooker and actual fuel + meat and vodka or beer depending on the recipe

those give you mad kcals and very long lasting buffs

and you can cumulate buffs

[torn berry]

theres no fireplaces in the run up to sarcophagus?

[willow hawk]

No... This will be addressed with fire camp markers + portable firecamps

You can add these add-ons yourself btw

[torn berry]

not necessary just annoying that rogue going infront of my SVD shooting at monolith insta fails the main quest

[willow hawk]

Use console > save

[torn berry]

fair enough

btw the busy hands bug is completely fixed on my save

havent had one in over 7h

[plush jackal]

Whats the minimum durability of armor that you can repair?

[torn berry]

if you mean at a technician you cant, if you repair it yourself however its 65% i think minimum to repair with sewing kits and bellow that you have to replace parts

[plush jackal]

I don't see anything that repairs lower than 50%

[torn berry]

yeah you have to replace parts at that point

[plush jackal]

Ugh, which means I need kits I can't find anywhere

[torn berry]

replacing parts doesnt consume the kit, you just need one

[willow hawk]

No FDDA but Crooks UI on ?

[torn berry]

crooks off as well

i can turn it on to see if it happens

[willow hawk]

Please update before

[torn berry]

bet.

[willow hawk]

#updated-mods-in-gamma

I pushed a potential fix for Crook's UI

[torn berry]

updated and testing the save now

@willow hawk fixed the instant busy hands on load

dunno about the one that happens after a few hours that screws up the entire save

[plush jackal]

No kits, just unlocked light and historical, I imagine they are tied to tools and I got no joy finding those

[torn berry]

basic tools and intermediate are super easy

its the expert that are annoying

as they are red forest and furhter up north

if you loot stashes you'l get them easily

[willow hawk]

Using your old saves right ?

The ones you uploaded

That were completely screwed xD

[north turret]

Hey just wanted to say thanks to Grok and all involved, the community around this game never fails to impress me.
Quick question are the food/drink/medication animations in this or not? Because they aren't for me but then I watched a YT vid of someone playing GAMMA and they were on just made me wonder if I had not installed properly or it's just a tweak on their end?

[torn berry]

they've been causing some crashes on the newest build

so they are disabled

im guessing its temp

[north turret]

Ahhhh that makes sense it was from an older build as there was some other minor differences I noticed. I just assumed with how easy the install was something had to have gone wrong 😅

[main timber]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but can anyone who still play with FDDA active check if you still get the "busy hands" bug while playing with both "Hold(Alt) button for disassembly" and "Item usage animations" in game menu turned off?

I've been playing for a long time after turning them off (with FDDA active) and haven't encountered the "busy hands" bug.

[cerulean bridge]

Hey all, I've been playing for a few days now and it's been great, but I can't for the life of me find a damn toolbox so I can actually craft/repair my stuff. I've been searching stashes (and narrowly avoiding certain death by chimera), killing everything in my way and I still can't find them. Is there a setting I'm missing? Also, every single piece of armour drops with such low condition that it's actually impossible to get better gear because my old shit doesn't just break. I'm still wearing the leather jacket I started with. Can anyone help?

[light timber]

Hello, i just upgraded my P220 with a tactical kit and im supposed to have 12 bullets mags and not 7 bullets mags anymore. is it caused by Mags Redux ?

[torn berry]

you mean just the basic toolkit jerome?

[cerulean bridge]

Yeah

[torn berry]

thats just insane bad luck then, also the armor is supost to be repaired by replacing the parts

[cerulean bridge]

Which I need tools for

[torn berry]

yeah lmao

im pretty sure hip gives you basic tools

[cerulean bridge]

Where do you find the tools?

[torn berry]

if you complete her quest

[cerulean bridge]

Oh

[torn berry]

just find the shotgun shes after, 20 buckshot and a can of tuna

and you'l get it from her

[cerulean bridge]

Maybe then the other tools will start spawning. Thanks bro, I'll try that

[torn berry]

no worries

@light timber if you have mags redux it doesnt matter what you upgrade and what the mag size says, its only the mags you use for it, i can for example use 60 rounders on a m4 that says 30 mag capacity

[light timber]

so i actually have 12 shots on my p220 now ?

[torn berry]

you can also try retooling the mags if it allows to see if its the 12 shot one

no the mags you use for it dictate how much mag size it has

doesnt matter what you ugprade a wep with

[light timber]

ohhh okay, so i better find or buy the 12 rounds ones !

[torn berry]

yeah

pretty sure for the p220 its the warsaw pact traders

like duty, military, etc

[light timber]

yeah, mercs too ?

[torn berry]

mercs are NATO i think

[light timber]

alright. gotta go incognito. thanks Rezie

[torn berry]

no problem brother

[north turret]

Are there campfires in the underground areas? I've never played with the campfire system before and I'm really enjoying it but utterly terrified at the proposition of heading underground.

[torn berry]

underground works like normal anomaly

can save anywhere

for most of them

some of them have campfires

[north turret]

Thank you. No doubt I will fall right back into save scumming when given the option! It really feels like a new game not having that option there for the most part.

[willow hawk]

You can re–enable them, just look for FDDA in the bottom left corner of MO2 and activate everything but you might get the busy hands issue (can't do anything but reloading, pretty annoying)

[willow hawk]

stashes marked on your map

[fallow sequoia]

bruh i am crashing on the defend the pump station clear sky mission in great swamp. logs say not enough memory resources reeeee

[keen sierra]

how can i quickly and easily get new headgear? currently respirator + leather jacket

[lapis silo]

Find a new headgear and repair it

[keen sierra]

how do i find new headgear=

?

i found a shitty clear sky outfit that needs repair and another shitty bandit outfit that needs repair but no headgears so far

[lapis silo]

Stashes and enemy stalkers

[cunning kindle]

Heyo, so I updated gamma today and now the animations for medical, eating and looting mutants no longer seems to be active?
Are these removed or disabled by default somewhere?

[keen sierra]

how do you obtain parts for repair? all parts i get are below 50% and unrepairable. @lapis silo

[keen sierra]

they're disabled due to a few bugs, enable at your own risk

(game breaking bugs, may i add)

[cunning kindle]

Aha, okay thanks for the head up! 👍

[lapis silo]

In the same way, you can also repair some of the parts and you can craft them too.

There is no "easy and fast" way in Gamma, only "slow and resourceful". Except you are Ald, then rules do not apply to you

[keen sierra]

do i need to deliver basic/advanced tools etc. for the traders to have the things to repair parts?

[lapis silo]

No, they won't sell armor parts

[keen sierra]

i know we gotta be slow and resourceful but i have been slugging for so hard

[keen sierra]

no, to repair the armor parts

also they should sell armor parts

[lapis silo]

They won't repair armor as well, since RC3. You have to fix it yourself

[keen sierra]

ACTUALLY, traders should sell armor and headgear, after all it's only a problem with weapons in the zone, not armor.

and some armor is even zone-made so

[lapis silo]

No they shouldnt, that would be way to easy

[lapis silo]

[keen sierra]

nono, im speaking the thing to repair the armor parts

i read the lore

obv they wouldn't sell exos or anything like that but the zone-made armors should still be available for sale

basic headgear and armor should be sold after reaching a good amount of loyalty with a trader, don'tcha think? @lapis silo

[lapis silo]

No

[keen sierra]

because that way, after getting so far in the game, if your armor just breaks or something you can go to a trader to buy shitty, yet good armor

very low tier stuff but again

[lapis silo]

The whole idea of Gamma is that you have to find and repair you own stuff. So no, I don't agree.

[keen sierra]

well to each to their own

[keen sierra]

again, ^

field armour repair kit or something like that

that repairs parts?

or does the sewing kit thingy do that?

[lapis silo]

Mechanics sell that one, yes

Just look into the details of the repair kits man, do a bit of your own research. Most stuff is all explained in game, right click -> details is your friend

[north turret]

Can I just confirm this is correct. I can swap out weapon parts (except for the barrel) without any additional tools/kits.
To swap out armour/headgear parts I need the relevant tool/kit?

[keen sierra]

yeah, you can field strip the weapon parts (except for the barrel, you need tools/a mechanics table)

for armour/headgear you need the vice (oh look i remembered the name for it) and the relevant tool/kit

[torn berry]

dont even need the vice, just right click basic tools

and you can replace it yourself

you can open a workbench on your person if you have the tools with you

[north turret]

I can change armour parts with basic tools and nothing else?

[torn berry]

yes

[lapis silo]

No, you for armor you always need the appropriate repair kit.

[lapis silo]

[torn berry]

?

to change parts its just the toolbench

isnt it?

[lapis silo]

No...

[torn berry]

oh shit your right

[lapis silo]

You also need the repair kit

[torn berry]

oyu need hte kit

yep

im stupid

been playing this for like 100+h and managed that answer

10/10 bruh

[lapis silo]

Maybe only answer questions, if you know the correct answer?

[reef galleon]

does this mod pack include anything new in regards to armor or hd textures

[lapis silo]

If y gun is over 25% cleanliness (general condition), then you can change all parts except the barrel with just drag&drop.

[north turret]

Thank you! I thought this is how it worked.

[lapis silo]

No new armors and no texture pack (yet). Textures you can always add yourself though

[reef galleon]

thank you

what is a good one that most folks use?

[lapis silo]

Golden Autumn is popular, there is also another one on moddb

Or you can go for GTR, but that is still in Beta with a lot of textures missing

[reef galleon]

awesome, thanks

im having some problems with this item, the headlamp part works as normal but pressing the nightvision keybind does nothing. Just me or?

Oh wow, it's at 5%. I think you have helped me solve this one 😆

I thought I was going crazy

[royal oxide]

I think by default it's hold, not press

[dawn hornet]

Thanks!!

[void storm]

Find a new one and then you should kill them with one hit to the head

[rancid trout]

Thanks for the help!

[edgy echo]

a single press will change intensity of the nvg when its on

[hexed shadow]

I went and grabbed a LAM for a PL-15 but it doesn't seem to change anything when I attach it to the weapon. Am i doing something wrong?

[north turret]

OK the answer to this one might just be "use your eyes/ears" but how do people quickly identify where they are being shot from? I seem to really struggle with this in open areas more so than I can recall with vanilla/modded anomaly.

[fallow sequoia]

Usually the blood indicator on screen will kind of point toward the direction if you got hit

[raw tulip]

Are there specific items to heal Limbs? This is my first time playing a stalker mod with limb health and I noticed healing items so far only seems to give it temporary health points.

[hexed shadow]

You can see if a medical item heals your limbs by looking at the description. Should be something like "post-heal" and should be some white dots that tell how which limb/s they heal and by how much

Think sid sells them at the start

[raw tulip]

oooh ok. I did see some dots but didn't give it a second glance. lol will definitely pay more attention. Thanks for the help!

[void storm]

Ibuprofen, Yadulin and Antibiotics are pretty good post-heals

[north turret]

Any idea which mod(s) that comes from so I can do some reading up on it? I can tell the game is giving me feedback but my dumbass doesn't seem to be able to quickly interpret it.

[fallow sequoia]

I think it's just from anomaly itself

[delicate sand]

?

What is this

[reef galleon]

question, where do i sell equipment now such as armors and weapons lol

[north turret]

Hmmmm interesting. I'm beginning to think I maybe had an enemy glitch below the map because I later had a companion in combat and firing at the ground in the same area and ended up having to set them to do not engage to get them away.

[slate goblet]

Usually I'll just dismantle them, keep the parts above 60% & sell or drop the rest

[reef galleon]

Ahh

Just sell the parts to the parts guy eh, okay I'll go with that thanks.

[slate goblet]

Yup! The mechanic/technician like Xenotech

[royal oxide]

I only dismantle when the barrel is 60% or over, otherwise just field strip and leave the husk on the corpse

[slate goblet]

LOL! That's actually pretty good advice. Don't know why I didn't just field strip instead

[royal oxide]

yeah, you save the multitool a lot by field stripping xd

[reef galleon]

Dismantle when barrel is over 60%?

[royal oxide]

60 or over, yeah

Then you have a useable barrel you can fix

[slate goblet]

Coz you can't field strip the barrel

[reef galleon]

Ooo gotcha

[brave hemlock]

I've tried to find the monolith lines that can be heard out of speakers in Pripyat on youtube. Have they been there in the original game?

[void storm]

How does this work? There's a beep and it's getting clearer the closer I get but I can't seem to find anything

nvm I found ut

[marsh hatch]

Ahhhh

I can't find this stupid scanner

A guy suggested me to go look for it a bit further North West, but the results were disappointing.

Nevermind

[sonic ermine]

how do i reset my installed mods back to default

like base gamma

[edgy echo]

When I took the parts from my old sks via "field strip" they became 0%. After reloading my save I was able to take them and that they stay in their condition. This also happened with the barrel via "disassemble", once again after retrying it worked fine. Is there a random chance or I just got an issue ?

[obsidian vortex]

what mod is connected to keybind C? it plays voiceover every time i press it and C is my keybind for crouch

[void storm]

Why can't I fieldstrip some guns?

[mossy seal]

Is the heart of the oasis supposed to come damaged?

[peak atlas]

the eating and medical stuff hand animations are gone after update. intended or ?

[edgy echo]

FDDA animations are disabled by default in MO2

[mossy seal]

yes you can re-enable it by going the animations and turning on FDDA and then going to Fixes and turning on GAMMA FDDA rework. WARNING it was removed because it could cause a really bad busy hands glitch

[hollow apex]

did Oasis respawn in GAMMA? just wondering

[mossy seal]

I also cant empower it with anything

[hollow apex]

it's supposed to empower with the same artefact so I'm wondering if it respawns

but it seems I could craft one with Bubble + Firefly tho

[brave hemlock]

where do you find it? 🙂

[hollow apex]

Jupiter

[mossy seal]

Spawned another one in to test and i cant empower either

[brave hemlock]

uh, damn I missed it.

[graceful iron]

you can enable lasers by holding L #│💻keybinds-in-gamma . i think that kit also lets you attach more sights? i am not certain

[graceful iron]

you cant sell weapons and outfits in gamma, its part of the gamma economy

[hollow apex]

there's a small puzzle you need to solve tho

[hollow apex]

that's weird

[hollow apex]

maybe try using 100% firefly + 100% bubble to craft one? I don't know if the result would be 100% Oasis or not

[brave hemlock]

a teleport?

I remember something like that from vanilla

[hollow apex]

Zaton has a teleport in Noah's quest, Oasis you will ||cross some pillars in a certain pattern or you will be repositioned at the beginning of the puzzle.||

[brave hemlock]

Noah is weird. He asked me for a shotgun. I brought him one, he took it. That's it. No more quests from him.

[hollow apex]

i think he also want you to kill some snorks

[brave hemlock]

I was like: huh, strange. Also, when I ask if he needs anything, he says yes, but there's no option to continue, only to stop

oh

right

forgot about the snorks

damn 🙂

also Sidorovich's quest to steal documents from the military outpost. Are you meant to kill everyone there? I did. But I remember in vanilla anomaly you were not supposed to kill anyone, but it also was a lot easier to get to it

[hollow apex]

yes the roadblocks quest

just kill'em

[brave hemlock]

I managed to kill at least a half of them withoug being noticed

stealth killings are tricky

and take time

[hollow apex]

that takes a lot of effort

[brave hemlock]

yes

[mossy seal]

Nope it just made on a 22%

[hollow apex]

that's not fair

definitely need a patch

[hollow apex]

and a side note: be sure to talk to the food vendor(forgot his name) in Clear Sky base in the marsh, that's not a visible quest but I think he will give you some stuff after you meet with Noah.

there's a dialogue option involve his dog and the dog in CS base

[rigid linden]

what ammo gives you red gunpowder?

[hollow loom]

Not sure what red gunpowder is

Check gunsmithing tools and look at the recipes for the varying ammo types

See which one requires what

[rigid linden]

I figure red gunpowder is extracted from other ammo that requires red gunpowder to craft

[graceful iron]

you need 2 of the same artefact to empower one of them, most artefacts can be detected or crafted but it seems the heart of the oasis does respawn in gamma

[graceful iron]

red gun powder is obtained from large rifle calibers

762/792/12/9x39

308/338

[mossy seal]

I had 2 heart of the oasis and the empower screen was empty

[graceful iron]

was the artefact melter filled with enough charges? it cant be used if it has one charge only

[mossy seal]

it had 10

[graceful iron]

can you try again? it definitely seems to work fine last time i used it myself

[mossy seal]

nope nothing i have 2 oasis's in my inventory and no other artifacts and 10 charges in the melter

[graceful iron]

does it work for other artefacts ?

[glossy zenith]

Do NPCs seem a little bugged to anyone else lately? I constantly see human NPCs getting attacked (including my companions) and they just stand there pointing their gun at the enemy while they get destroyed

[mossy seal]

yes

[graceful iron]

so its just heart of the oasis

[mossy seal]

yes

[uneven prism]

is there any way to see your trust levels

[mossy seal]

other than with the pda?

[graceful iron]

trust ? most relation/reputation things are shown in the pda relations section

but what do you mean by trust specifically

[mossy seal]

if you are looking for numbers click the triangle in the top right area

[valid spire]

hey fellas where do you see gamma economy and bas injection in MO2

nvm I see im dumb

nice and organized in MO2 ive never used that feature

[slow topaz]

Can I save my changes in the modpack after following #old-framerate-optimisation? Like, after I update all the changes would be gone and my game would keep stuttering so is there a solution for this

[karmic lava]

Is it an optical illusion or does my character actually slow down when I use zoom?

[uneven prism]

It says I've gained a lot of trust from Loners, Clear Sky, and Duty

but

It doesnt change in the menu

no matter how much trust I have

[graceful iron]

goodwill

the trust notifications mean you got goodwill with the faction

[uneven prism]

how do i check that

[slow topaz]

does anybody know?

[rotund moss]

did you also have 2 of them in the Inventory? something i noticed is that sometimes you see 2 atrifacts, even with different % on their little stat bar, but you actually only have the 1 empowered one in your inventory, does usually only happen while empowering multiple times tho

[graceful iron]

this is your goodwill with each faction

[uneven prism]

ahhhh

[rotund moss]

the stuff under that line is a reminder of how the factions stand towards each other atm

that one will not change, unless you have dynamic relation active (in the settings)

[plush jackal]

There are no wearable berets, are there?

Gas mask + beret?

[rotund moss]

can somebody give me the estimated BR of the wastelander suit and the Mercenary STS-W body armour? i fixed up the wastelander, but it as always with loner suits so does not feel like the flavor text says, anyway quick reload and i could fix up the Wolfen (STS-W) as an alternative

[rotund moss]

never have been

[plush jackal]

Sad. Military has some.

[tidal raft]

No. Gas mask takes up the head slot anyway.

[rotund moss]

we have a beret ingame?

[plush jackal]

So it would be gas mask + beret combo in one slot

[plush jackal]

Yea, though it might be part of military models

[tidal raft]

Only on military NPCs.

[rotund moss]

thats what i thought, that is only a visual on NPCs

[tidal raft]

And why the hell would you wear a beret instead of a helmet inside a "warzone".

[rotund moss]

to die looking cool i would assume

anyway back to my suits

[plush jackal]

Same reason why some wear non-ballistic headwear and masks.

Be poor, but with swag.

[red orbit]

[rotund moss]

idk mate the Sphere Series Helmets have a loota drip on their own

no berret needed, you could at Catears for further insults tho

[tidal raft]

Blech.

[rotund moss]

so about the suits

anybody knows their BRs? or how i find this informations?

[tidal raft]

No idea about BR. Try to infer from Ballistics resistance.

[rotund moss]

the wastelander won that one, does how ever feel like im wearing a leather jacket

hmmm i will start up the game and check "hit modifiers" or something

<<<sad all loner suits suck, because everyone hates us noises (just kidding)

[tidal raft]

Save a copy of your user.ltx into a separate folder.

[tidal raft]

Nomad is decent all-around.

[rotund moss]

does not count

Nomad suit to strong compared to the rest D:

[tidal raft]

Wow, that's very selective of you.

[rotund moss]

but yeah it is a good suit

i just hated how easy it was to get in vanilla and that it became meta not only because it was good, but BETTER than basicly everything else

[slow topaz]

Alright thx

[rotund moss]

talking about loner suits here

[tidal raft]

You may also want to rename the MCM config mod in MO2. Read description.

[tidal raft]

Nomad is a loner suit.

[slow topaz]

okei

[plush jackal]

Is Nomad better than wastelander?

[rotund moss]

and im comparing it to other loner suits if i say its better then them o-O

[rotund moss]

ngl it is

in an allround pov

[slow topaz]

I can rename it to anything I want?

And it’s the one under the gamma fixes right?

[tidal raft]

Okay. You were writing about it as if it wasn't a Loner outfit.
