[slow fox]

Is there a way to craft the purified water? Or only buy

[graceful iron]

only buy and loot

[slow fox]

Ok

[royal halo]

er, are the mods supposed to be out of order?

grok did something with the separators?

[graceful iron]

#│🔧troubleshooting message #│🔧troubleshooting mods out of order

[royal halo]

no mags

also no ammo... but oh well

[brave hemlock]

there's no artefact there. And why does it say Scanner? I don't have scanners, I use detector instead

[graceful iron]

it says the synapse, but that one is the witches jelly or something

the synapse is a bit further north west, west of the depot

its an electra anomaly

[brave hemlock]

it's both

one artefact should be in synapse and one in the witches jelly

the pointers are switched, lol

the witch points to synapse and the synapse points to witch. Anyhow, it doesn't change much, I don't see artefacts in either of them

why...

[graceful iron]

the witches jelly is a big anomaly, did you look around the whole thing?

[brave hemlock]

yes

ran around the whole thing

[royal halo]

i also had this problem and couldnt find the requested artefact

my guess is that i needed a better detector but the quest markers disappeared

[brave hemlock]

I have the best detector

also, I tried saving and loading after getting the dead ecologist's PDA

[graceful iron]

you can find most the artefacts for these quests with the lowest detector tier so thats not the problem

[brave hemlock]

and I tried leaving and entering the location

I'm afraid they mean you to use a different device to find the artefacts...

[graceful iron]

try going to the synapse one and getting the artefact there

see if its there or not

[brave hemlock]

I tried

it's not there

[royal halo]

this is the quest where you have to go to 3 anomaly fields right

when i did this quest i only found the artefact in two of the fields, one of them did not have it

[brave hemlock]

no

I mean, it's part of that quest...

I'm quite late into this quest

It has like at least six iterations

of artefact finding

[royal halo]

"find sample in X anomaly" yeah its the same one

im pretty sure its bugged

[graceful iron]

what release of gamma are you currently on?

[brave hemlock]

I updated pretty recently, like about a week ago.

[graceful iron]

ok

[sharp roost]

anyone know where this stash right on top of Dushman is

[rotund moss]

on the roof

[sharp roost]

I checked the roof

it's not there

[rotund moss]

oh wait it might be "under" him

[tidal sentinel]

Does anyone have any issue with looking in the direction of the sun and onscreen theres a "flashlight". It looks very faint so its hard to take a screenshot to even show it. Once I look around 90 degrees away from the sun however, it disappears. Its sorta distracting and annoying.

[rotund moss]

there is a tunnel system under the streets of dead city

[rotund moss]

you talking about lense flare or the freshly added "staring in the sun" effect?

[sharp roost]

hmmm most of the tunnels I saw didn't elad there, i'll look farther tho

[rotund moss]

if memory serves there is an entrance to that system under the stairs in the HQ you might need to low crouch to pass through there tho

[graceful iron]

it could be the new sunflares, you can disable the mod in mo2 just fine

[tidal sentinel]

Im assuming lens flare. Im not necessarily starting directly at the sun. It just looks like an extremely faint flashlight

[tidal sentinel]

Alright, ill try that now. Thanks

Also, is there a way to make the stash/traders UI not transparent?

[graceful iron]

i think there could be some opacity values in the mcm or maybe in the gamma UI files

[sharp roost]

right but it doesnt lead to under him

[graceful iron]

a quick look through the mcm and cant find anything to do with the UI sadly

so it must be the gamma UI files i think

[rotund moss]

if you go there then north a bit and then left there is a stash, could be around his position

[graceful iron]

it should be in the sewer system, cant be on his floor or the second floor

[sharp roost]

there's no left, there's a very short dead end north of the entrance under the stairs but there's no left

[rotund moss]

lemme boot the game up and show you what i mean, dead city was my home for my invictus run way back

[sharp roost]

oke

[graceful iron]

does anyone remember which option grok said to disable and did it help with busy hands at the time?

[rotund moss]

"must learn name"

[graceful iron]

there is multiple entrances to the underground sewers in dead city

[tidal sentinel]

this worked, thanks again! I'll be checking the GAMMA UI files to see if I can make it not transparent as its sorta distracting for me but its not a game ruiner.

[rotund moss]

anybody else has his loading time (first time loading after the game got started) doubled since the shader update?

[royal halo]

also quicksaving took twice as long

[rotund moss]

i mean i can go and make coffee or go for a smoke so i dont realy mind but if i "gotta go fast" it kinda hurts ^^

[royal halo]

it fixed once i deleted rc3/mods and reinstalled

[sharp roost]

I havent noticed any load time increases

[rotund moss]

must be something on my end then

[graceful iron]

just like busy hands, it happens but it makes no sense

you can sometimes start the game and it takes a few seconds

and some other times it just wont load

[rotund moss]

fml i spawned in yantar

stopid cain stopid

[royal halo]

is there a console command to despawn corpses? i cant finish the sarcophagus monolith fight because the corpses keep spazzing out and reducing my framerate to unplayable levels

[rotund moss]

im not sure but maybe delete?

[royal halo]

corpses, yes

whoever decided having to fight 10 waves of monolith in an extremely confined space is a true genius

[rotund moss]

the Devs of SoC way back did that as well

tho to be fair it was an actuall wave type of fight

[soft leaf]

do artis apply resistances on your body or on top of your armor

i.e. i'm getting shot by an ap round but i have some ballistics from artis

[graceful iron]

you were the one looking through the files idk tho

[slow fox]

If i have like -20 reputations with ecologist, are they gonna let me in, or shoot on site?

[soft leaf]

but that should be in anomaly's base code

and xray is an eyesore

[graceful iron]

[royal halo]

i played SoC as well and I think you have to fight about 100 soldiers throughout the entire CNPP, but there's probably at least 100 you have to fight in this one room alone in the mod

either way the bodies will not stop spazzing out and ruining the framerate and making this section uncompletable

[soft leaf]

dude the ending to motz sucks

you have to savescum every kill and pray that the corpse doesn't start spazzing out

[sharp roost]

man fuck this stash

[royal halo]

yea thats what ive been doing so far. it sucks

[graceful iron]

did you try the debug menu delete command ?

[royal halo]

while i'm at it i'll spawn myself a gauss rifle and 1000 batteries. fuck this section

[graceful iron]

if you are from a friendly faction i think they wont shoot on sight, yet

[rotund moss]

okay so i looked up every nook and crany i know of around the HQ and you dont end up around that location, only thing i can do next for you is free cam the shit out of

[sharp roost]

what's the free cam command

[slow fox]

Yeah im a merc

[graceful iron]

just go freecam and see what section that is and how to get to it

[graceful iron]

while debug mode is on press num 0, dont open the debug menu

[rotund moss]

0 if you play with debug mode on, demo_record 1 if you play with out it

[sharp roost]

0 opens a NPC logic execute and Num 0 apparently does reload_system_ini

opened with debug btw

[rotund moss]

no you just press 0

on the numpad

[sharp roost]

ahh I see

[rotund moss]

no menu or anything needed

its just that if you hit 0 without the debug mode on

nothing will happen

[graceful iron]

there i fixed it

[rotund moss]

i just remember something: somebody said something about the market stash he just got is a fucking pseudogiant, and if the giant moves the stash moves as well. Is there by any chance a merc sitting on the 2nd floor at the position aboth Dushman?

[sharp roost]

oh yeah

hmm no tehre isnt

[royal halo]

the problem is that i have to look directly at it and do this on every corpse before it spazzes out because it becomes untargetable for obvious reasons. I guess there is no blanket "delete all corpses" command?

[sharp roost]

LMFAO

It was dushman himself

HE WAS THE STASH

I killed him and it disappeared

[graceful iron]

not this again, walking stashes

[rotund moss]

did you try to save via console and reload? at least part of the spasm should be gone that way

[royal halo]

what is with your obsession with saving via console? i save with f5

and yeah i have to reload to fix it but it's a gamble if it works

[rotund moss]

okay last time i tried to help that one

[sharp roost]

im mad >:(

[slow fox]

Ive got body part health disabled but sid huds emblems are on top of my health bar. How to fix? Just turn off sid hud?

[graceful iron]

hi mad i am sad

[graceful iron]

its in mcm, you can disable it

[slow fox]

I mean atm i dont have the actual hud

Just emblems

[graceful iron]

?

[sharp roost]

wtf

why can't I upgrade

"missing the required tools"?

[royal halo]

basic tools

you need basic tools in addition to the red toolkit

[sharp roost]

that's dumb

[royal halo]

its the same thing for mechanics, they need the right tools

[sharp roost]

Yeah I thought basic was included in advanced because advanced is included in expert

wack

[graceful iron]

no

[sharp roost]

or actually

hmm

Wack that you can't upgrade with better toolkits

[royal halo]

i agree

[graceful iron]

each toolkit is .5kg

[sharp roost]

yea brain fart :(

is a grizzly worth it

[royal halo]

no lol

[sharp roost]

yeah but by the time I've found expert tools i'll be 100 years old

I haven't gotten a single green stash above garbage

[royal halo]

you must search stashes above red forest

[sharp roost]

right, I've searched all of the white ones above it

and zero green stashes have been marked for me beyond garbage

[rotund moss]

did you try doing tasks for the bandits and merc in jupiter/Zaton?

they should spawn some stashes further norht

[royal halo]

for me i found 2 expert toolkits the very first time i searched radar but I found 0 advanced toolkits and had to craft mine

[graceful iron]

its fun to use, looks good and does not give you the literal locations of anomalies

[sharp roost]

good idea, I should do that

[graceful iron]

and its only an advanced tool kit

[sharp roost]

hmmm true

[royal halo]

welp im stuck here

i cant turn off the c-consc generators

i can only assume because quest isnt finished or something

[graceful iron]

did you skip a part of the quest? what does the pda say?

[royal halo]

its the ending of "a concrete tomb"

and it says to turn off the generator pods

[graceful iron]

is there any other thing you can turn off first maybe?

[royal halo]

ive ran around the whole lab and shot all of the c-con guys but i cant find anything else

eh i dont really need to see the ending to SoC again anyway, i'll just leave

ill consider this playthrough of gamma "completed"

[graceful iron]

you can try loading a save?

[royal halo]

i did and all of the c-con guys came back and say nice things to me

"been better days"

[graceful iron]

tf

[royal halo]

oh you know, trying to kill you mfers

[graceful iron]

this is getting better and better

[royal halo]

alright it was fun, time to start another playthrough

[sharp roost]

ok so as far as the dushman stash went

he had a ton of ammo he normally shouldn't sell[

refreshed his trade inventory, ammo was gone and marker was gone

[sharp roost]

im ngl this is harder than I thought, their quests are dogwater

"bring me 12 antidote" "bring me 10 medkits"

breh

[rotund moss]

yo worst roll ever

the medkits can be at least made fairly easy

but antidote?

[royal halo]

its just 4 full stacks

or 3 + 1

each antidote is 3 uses right

[rotund moss]

making it, as in crafting

but yes you are correct

i just checked

[royal halo]

hm i cant remember if the medics sell fentanyl

[rotund moss]

its actually fairly easy to make antidote

[royal halo]

if they do you can make it easily

[rotund moss]

you just have to buy a lot of cheap pills as well for it

[royal halo]

either make etperazine with fentanyl or buy the etperazine

[rotund moss]

its using Etperazine and i think thats like 900 bucks for them

[royal halo]

i find it funny that i use antidote to heal head hp more than to actually protect against chemicals

unfortunately i haven't found a pill that can protect against random crashes

[rotund moss]

510 bucks actually

[graceful iron]

[royal halo]

so uhhh i found maybe a little exploit

the best way to raise survival? walk over landmines

[graceful iron]

with a high explosive res suit that will be chewed through ? sure

[royal halo]

or throw grenades at my feet

very skillful

[graceful iron]

the skill system mod has a few known exploits, go report it to the author i guess

[royal halo]

im not even sure why the skill system is in the game to begin with

i thought about turning it off but i understand the rest of the mod is probably balanced around it

[graceful iron]

to give the player another thing to grind for, i think it has its own balance or there could be a patch you can disable with it in the mod list

yup

[royal halo]

for example the suit movement speed modifiers are probably directly balanced around having the skills increase it over time

[graceful iron]

without the skill system you will only have the grok's gotta go fast changing speeds along with the suits multipliers

you can tweak that in mcm just fine

[royal halo]

the suit modifiers no, but the gotta go fast yes

[graceful iron]

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

did i say you can tweak the suits multipliers? no

[royal halo]

uh, you kinda did

doesnt matter either way

[graceful iron]

why do i keep trying to help?

it does not matter either way like you said

[willow hawk]

Rad bar

[graceful iron]

i was asking what was the part of UI that was still there stuck on top of the vanilla health

[willow hawk]

You need to edit UI textures @tidal sentinel

[sharp roost]

so uh

what do I do with this boi after the quest

[willow hawk]

You drop it

[graceful iron]

you just put it in the anomaly

dont take it with you

[sharp roost]

oop

well I dropped it at the scientists feet now

since quest is over :v

guess itll despawn, or not

[rotund moss]

they will most likely loot it as soon as you are far enough away

yes NPCs loot random shit from the floor if you are not around

[sharp roost]

Oh btw I don't really remember, white stashes still have a chance for tools right

[rotund moss]

yes but rather low compared to green ones

but yeah you can still get tools from them

[wise sparrow]

best way to get expert tools in RC1 was white stashes in radar, not sure if that's changed

[graceful iron]

stashes didnt change, but that could have been one time luck

highest chances for expert tools are in cnpp, the further north the better

[wise sparrow]

true but getting to zaton/cnpp on a story playthrough takes a bit longer than radar

got expert on my duty ironman run first white stash in zaton

the green ones tend to have other toolkits plus weapons and armor in my experience

[molten tartan]

Is there a way to compare the weapon damage output with different guns and ammo?
For example a gun's description says damage is 20 and is loaded with HP ammo comparing with another guns damage 25 loaded with FMJ ammo. Which gun does more damage?

[willow hawk]

Damage =\= Penetration

And in game you can't

Just stick to the ammo description

At some point I might display the real used values in bullets description

[edgy helm]

how demanding in terms of system requirements is the mod?

[graceful iron]

takes about 50GB of storage in total after being completely installed, should run on anything thats not a potato after some optimization #old-framerate-optimisation but its a bit CPU and RAM intensive

[mossy forge]

i got crash for reasons i think ?

no reasons*

[torn berry]

how do you level up strength? i'd like to at least know how to actively grind it, since it affects carry weigth

[grave plover]

Kill with melee weapons and traveling with weight, not to the point of being encumbered but enough to move

[warped ginkgo]

search for your log and post it in #old-bugs after you crash

[torn berry]

how do i get on the right houses roof

theres no way to acess any of those 2 roofs i can see

[fallow sequoia]

anyone know who sells the recipe for the PSU with a battery artifact in it

[torn berry]

arent the PSU just max rep ecos?

all 3 of them i think

[fallow sequoia]

i've only seen the two. i'll wait a few days then

[quick ravine]

the loner trader in Cordon is just gone/missing after an emission, which is kind of a pain since my big stash is there and I can't even buy food
is it possible to teleport him/his corpse to me, or should I just spawn a new one through the spawn thing?

[warped ginkgo]

loris?

sometimes he goes to sleep in the back of the window at night

[quick ravine]

I went to the swamps and came back the day after at 10am and he is still not there :c

[onyx vigil]

I have a question regarding artefacts. I can't find any info anywhere. I have 3 artefacts on me, and i can't sell them to the Eco boys because artefact condition is to low. Is there no way of selling these artefacts or raising their condition? Or should i use the artefact melter and melt them, will that raise their condition?

[torn berry]

the artifact melter allows you to empower artifacts with the same artifact if its radiation giving off ones

you can use the non radiation ones as fuel

so for example combining one empty with another will give you more durability on it and make it more powerfull

think ecos will buy artifacts once they are 30%

[onyx vigil]

Oh okay thanks. So anything below 30% cant be sold, and should just be used to empower other artifacts. Thanks

[torn berry]

the radiation ones yeah

the other ones allways spawn at 100%

the junk ones

[onyx vigil]

Oh yeah im talking abouit the radiation ones

[torn berry]

then yeah

[torn berry]

wich AK should i fix up? i got an RPK and a 105 upgraded with Swamp thing from the group i wiped

[royal oxide]

https://tenor.com/view/john-travolta-well-where-is-it-looking-for-something-gif-5291661

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIwA1WqNT3Q

please help

[torn berry]

that anomaly allways bugs out to me

and is never there

if its completely screwed you can allways go back to prof and say you didnt find them

he'll give you more quests

[royal oxide]

good to know, thanks

[nimble cargo]

The location for that artefact isnt bugged, the marker is bugged. The artefact location is somewhere within the abandoned town

[willow hawk]

Warfare ?

[willow hawk]

105 swamp

[torn berry]

what is a must buy from most gunsmiths if im planning on doing mostly crafting?

[quick ravine]

nope, regular

I also tried finding a vendor that sells 7,62x54 ammo but couldn't find one, checked clear sky, sidor, duty, freedom

I bet the cordon loner sells em but he gone on a vacation

[willow hawk]

That's unlocked by WP traders at 1000 or 1500 rep

[clever garnet]

question where can you buy guns from just been to the army trader in agroprom and he is selling no guns

and a few other traders are not selling them like the flea market where do you buy guns in gamma

[willow hawk]

#│📚manual . You can't.

[clever garnet]

cool but just asking why

[warped ginkgo]

#│📚manual message

[clever garnet]

cool thank you guys

[tired hound]

I'm getting desperate here, none of the merc allied traders sell 9x19 VSN mags

I need to know where to find those

[willow hawk]

Edit mags files

[royal oxide]

Thanks, good to know for the future

[tacit yew]

sh

[tired hound]

w8 u mean vityaz mags aren't sold by traders?!

[clever garnet]

is it a glitch or on purpose why i cant fast travel any more north than army warehouses

[tired hound]

intended or should be

[grave plover]

you can only fast travel to visited places (if you dont play with debug menu)

[clever garnet]

grrr was hoping to sneak past up north hehhee

hehehe

[willow hawk]

I. Don't. play. With. Mags.

[tired hound]

you should it's pretty awesome

[willow hawk]

There's a psy barrier everywhere anyways

[willow hawk]

I don't like the extra management

[tired hound]

to each their own

I've got such a high opinion of mags redux that I think it should come with base anomaly

but until then full compatibility with gamma would be nice considering it's in the modpack

[quick ravine]

WP? 🧐

[flat knot]

Warsaw Pact

[quick ravine]

ahh, figures

ty

[graceful iron]

@torn berry that anomaly is not bugged, the artefact is not there, go further south to one of the other burning houses and have your detector out

[tacit yew]

i have lamp artifact, and it tells me the package is here hmmm

not reachable?

[royal oxide]

Is the ghille suit worth using? What does it do exactly?

[graceful iron]

there is a stash in the fire, the backpack. did you look around the other room for the package you are looking for?

[tacit yew]

yes, and i've check the roof, nothing

[slow topaz]

When I delete my mods folder and click check gamma data then click complete installation is it possible that I lose my save progress?

[graceful iron]

it sounds like it could be a bit further

[slow topaz]

because I have problems when I click check gamma data and then update pack

[graceful iron]

no, you wont lose a save unless you delete the save files in the anomaly/appdata folder

[nimble cargo]

No, you do not lose your save file. It saves the files under anomoly

[slow topaz]

Ah okei

[graceful iron]

i think its not in that building, it could be a bit further away

outside in the bushes or in the other destroyed buildings

the RF receiver is going to beep even faster than that when you get close enough

[tacit yew]

already spent 30 min

idk

[daring hull]

why do my limbs never heal when I take something like ibuprofen. the only thing I can do is either sleep or use things that will temporarily help them to continue on

[graceful iron]

you need a first aid (yellow dots) first like medkits

and then a post heal (white dots) like ibuprofen

[nimble cargo]

You have to use the temp. heals, then you use the post health items

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual

[daring hull]

oh shit thanks i’m dumb

[steep pollen]

sido doesnt sell 7.62*54 ?

[graceful iron]

he does at a higher trader level

[steep pollen]

i repaired a svt 40 for nothing ?

[graceful iron]

you can craft or loot the ammo

gunsmithing tools can craft ammo

[steep pollen]

oh ok

i wasted a historic repair kit

[willow hawk]

It starts at 1000 I think ?

Check Sid trader file in GAMMA Economy

[steep pollen]

but it means that if you repair a mosin at the start, you can't buy ammo ?

[grave plover]

you can search for an ammo kit (dont remember the name) and craft ammo through dissasembling other calibers from dead stalkers

[graceful iron]

gunsmithing kit

now stalkers drop ammo parts as well

crafting ammo is not that hard anymore

[willow hawk]

Well you can't repair a mosin super fast anyways. And 1000 is rather fast to get

[willow hawk]

I think you don't even need to buy ammo now

[graceful iron]

thats true

[willow hawk]

Break calibers you don't use

[willow hawk]

I need feedback on that btw

I set some progressive values but if you get too many parts, I will reduce these

[torn berry]

i have 1k in small rifle propellant its a bit much i think

its at most a 15h run atm

[willow hawk]

[torn berry]

and the first 5 was mostly me crying myself to aspirin to be healed

[willow hawk]

How often you get these parts ?

On every body or ?

[torn berry]

if it means anything i started as military and rushed rostok wich means im mostly killing peeps in wild territory and army

so i kinda skipped the south part

ill pay atention to how much im getting it but i dont think its on every body

[willow hawk]

Yeah but you can also get parts from breaking ammo

I don't want to fuckup the whole economy because of this lol

I reduced the parts

[torn berry]

the parts for weapons seem fine

[graceful iron]

ammo parts, not weapon ones

[torn berry]

im not making enough to smother in ammo but i get enough propellant to supply an army

yeah i meant that

my b on phrasing

i just wiped like 3 to 4 squads and got this amount of propellant/ammo parts, it seems fine to me

i allways had a problem with propellant not with ammo parts

[graceful iron]

seems fine to me

[torn berry]

yeah biggest problem for me was allways the propellant when it came to crafting ammo

the ammo parts were 100% fine

[graceful iron]

the large rifle propellant is always a large problem

[torn berry]

dont you mention to me that devil

i understand its scarcity tho, it is bigboy rounds

not really ticklers

[graceful iron]

[willow hawk]

I don't want people to be able to craft everything just from found ammo parts

Ammo should activately be disassembled I think

Ammo parts found is just the icing on the cake

[willow hawk]

That's too much I think 🤔

Let's see.

Just give me some feedback, I'll edit accordingly

[torn berry]

will update and do so

[willow hawk]

Also I need feedback on hard busy hands without these 3 add-ons #📢announcements

[graceful iron]

i am so busy right now i am multitasking or i would do some testing and feedback myself

[torn berry]

your just looking for the busy hands that crashes your game right? not the one that you can save/load away

[willow hawk]

Yeah the one where UI doesn't respond and save crashes the game

I have high hopes that dynamic rads are involved

Btw the instant 3500mS rads patch will be fixed soon

[torn berry]

bet, ill make a testing char with the rock lickers and do so

[willow hawk]

Basically it's like, create char, full armor and shit, just gun down everyone and loot everyone, go rape the game

[torn berry]

yeah ill just play unisg or rock lickers

[willow hawk]

I vote for UNISG as a faction kek

[torn berry]

should i enable FDDA and disable the add-ons in anoucements or just keep it off?

[willow hawk]

Just keep FDDA off

[torn berry]

bet

[willow hawk]

[royal oxide]

What does ghillie suit do? Is it worth wearing it?

[willow hawk]

No

[royal oxide]

[willow hawk]

There's ghillie suit Addon but it makes you invisible to NPC. Not really fun.

It improves your stealth in GAMMA still

[royal oxide]

Thanks

[torn berry]

does unisg have psy barrier imunity?

[quick ravine]

Does it matter what scope I put on a weapon intended for my companion? Does it change anything about their AI or accuracy at all?

[topaz berry]

i cant see the minimap, i have the default square one

and it simply disapeared

is that a bug or something?

i tried the default slash key to make it appear

[grave plover]

do you have the rest of the hud on? maybe you pressed the enter key on numpad and disabled it all together

[torn berry]

did you try saving and reloading?

[old geode]

Exo in dark valley possible?

I just got one from a mercenary hit squad

[willow hawk]

Light exos, yes

[topaz berry]

oh, that was the problem

thanks

[willow hawk]

Full exos, potentially, I don't remember all the maps. Check no exos in the south addon script (grok_nes.script) @old geode

[old geode]

["l04_darkvalley"] = 1,

I am assuming 1 means no; yes the script comment says 1 means no exo

[azure jewel]

I swear I remembered there was a sawed off shotgun that could fit in a pistol slot, does anyone know the name (if it exists, and if so, where to buy it?)

[willow hawk]

Was it a light exo ?

[topaz berry]

toz 34 i think

[azure jewel]

Thanks, i'll see if I can raid the bandit base to try and find one to repair and/or check out butcher

[old geode]

it was a mercenary exoskeleton

[willow hawk]

Well the timer runs every x min, so perhaps it didn't despawn

Or the npc has an armor profile just below

Or it was simply a protoexo

Little question about the new THAP update.
Grok said we should put it in the download folder before we update but should we delete the old version the download folder of THAP?^^

[willow hawk]

You can yes

To save some space

@timber jasper

[rigid karma]

Okay, I just repaired my SVT-40 (I know it's not the best gun in the world but I like it) Where might I find a scope for it?

I know it's more or less random, but I was wondering if there was somewhere where it would be a good bet to find

[willow hawk]

Can you screenshot shot the compatible scopes on that thing?

[timber jasper]

Thanks Grok!

[rigid karma]

It says "PU Special Scope"

[quick cloak]

The Ak12 monolith upgraded doesn't has any side aim scope ?

[slow fox]

Hi. Which mod changes the status effects in the bottom left corner?

Im not using body part health and would like to keep the anomaly health bar and status icons

[quick cloak]

disable minimal hud and and gamma hud

[slow fox]

You mean gamma ui?

[quick cloak]

yeah that one

[slow fox]

Ok ill try thank you

[quick cloak]

the icon won't weird out anymore but you'll lose the ui

[rigid karma]

This is the scope I need

[slow fox]

ok now the status doesnt pile up anymore but ive lost a lot of features 😦

maybe ill just keep the minimalist one off

[quick cloak]

You can try out body health. It's not that bad honestly

[teal marlin]

what do i need to repair an exoskeleton?

killed a bandit that had one

[quick cloak]

expert tool kit and part that more than 60%

fix the part then use the tool kit to fix the exo

[rotund moss]

only half right

[rotund moss]

Exoscelleton repair kit (ususally locked behind the Expert tool kit) and the parts used in the Exo you want to repair (hopefully at 100% each), and then you just repair it like every other armour in the game

also if you guys rightclick the items and go to "details" you can see in the list what kind of repair kit and cleaning kits you can work with, on that item

[slow fox]

what does the "maintain parts" in a weapon do?

also, to change the barrel i need a vice with an appropriate repair kit right? or just vice and new barrel

[bold rain]

Maintain parts let’s you repair parts in a gun without removing them from the gun

#│📚manual all the way at the top may help

[slow fox]

crashed but log doesnt really show any fatal errors. i was shooting some loners when it happened

[nimble cargo]

From what ive seen in my own playthrough, the game is trying to calculate your reputation drop, increase the number of people in hit squads, and increase the bounty on your head. The engine cant do it all so the game crashes

[slow fox]

NPC sim_default_stalker_1 has no trade information
stack trace:

at address 0x00000001401482CA

these are the last lines

ok

[flat knot]

Will the THAP thing eventually be a part of the main package when ModDB gets back in full gear or should we remember to do that bit from here on out?

[grave plover]

installer updates and downloads from moddb, today the servers were on fire as usual so thats why grok said to download manually

[willow hawk]

THAP should be downloaded automatically already, it's just for safety measures

[ruby blaze]

Is it possible to disable the ballistics overhaul? If I uncheck 181 & 183 the game crashes when shooting someone.

[willow hawk]

I don't get why anyone would like that

Base game ballistic is garbage

Just tweak the ballistic mod script to your liking

grok_bo.script

AMA

[ruby blaze]

I agree and I don't mind it, but I've just started with GAMMA and it's going to be rough for the longplay I'm shooting for. Just asking if there was an easy way to revert.

[tacit yew]

Hey, this is the 1st mission of Spore, where is the anomaly?

[long grove]

Hey. I'm currently watching your Anomaly play through and loving it.

the only way to get a basic toolkit is stashes?

[ruby blaze]

Cheers! 👍

[graceful iron]

use the right ammo for the target or aim for head/ legs since they are the least armored

you can kill armored stalkers with buckshot to the legs or head if you are close enough and if you hit enough pallets

its not effective, thats why you should not fight unless you can win or have to early game

[graceful iron]

right here

btw check pinned message for the exact location

[mighty thorn]

Can't download the mod files because ModDB thinks I am a bot

[graceful iron]

you can wait for moddb to stop shitting itself or you can use a vpn but i have a feeling moddb will still shit itself

[wispy loom]

any news on the artifact repair bug? it takes all my willpower to not abuse it

[graceful iron]

grok didnt say anything about it

oh no discord is having a stroke now?

[wispy loom]

i dont think so i see your messages lmao

but alright i really wish i could forget that forbidden knowledge man

[graceful iron]

my first message took 5 second to send

[wispy loom]

holy shit

ay its a lot of data

[ruby blaze]

Cheers for that, I'll play around with it.
I'm not a big fan of the barrel condition affecting dmg. It doesn't sound like there's an easy way to improve a barrel in the field, is that correct?

[graceful iron]

you can hope for a gun with a good barrel or dirty barrel since repairing that is easy, or you can get a full repair kit to replace the barrel

but the ballistics isnt hard or annoying if you get to know it and find how it works

[ruby blaze]

Does fixing a barrel's condition exhaust a use of the repair kit?

[graceful iron]

if the barrel is only dirty you can maintain the gun using the specific gun's cleaning kit to clean the barrel, if the barrel is beyond dirty you will need to replace it using a repair kit, you can either get a new barrel or repair one and then use the vice menu(you can open it using a toolkit to) this way wont use a charge from the repair kit. or you can right click and maintain the gun but it will consume one charge from the repair kit

#│📚manual

[ruby blaze]

Ah okay, so the barrel is still cleanable up to a certain condition as per vanilla rules

[sharp roost]

yea

60% you can maintain it

[ruby blaze]

Okay, sweet, that changes everything. I read the manual a got worried when I saw that barrels had to be replaced at workbenches, but maintaining as normal can mitigate this.
Looking forward to getting stuck in. 👍

The field-stripping ability is pretty cool.

[graceful iron]

a lot of people got scared of a lot of gamma mechanics, especially ballistics, gun repair, health system and artefacts but they never played with the mechanics enough or sometimes never read the manual which can be really helpful

[idle cloak]

@graceful iron I tried to disable Artefacts Reinvention mod and my game always CTD is there a work around or is it something im doing?

[graceful iron]

and here we have a perfect example

[ruby blaze]

I'm not so worried about the mechanics, I have a good understanding of vanilla and have read the manual for GAMMA. I was more concerned about how much had changed and how drastically it would affect the next run - I have a very specific structure in mind.

[graceful iron]

you need to disable a patch or 2, wait let me check

[long grove]

Well, unless I’m missing something obvious. (Which is entirely possible) you need a basic toolkit to repair armor and craft anything. I’m six in-game days in and have not seen one toolkit drop. Idk if this is as intended or I’m just massively unlucky.

[graceful iron]

only marked stashes have toolkits in them, do quests to get stash locations as rewards

[long grove]

Yeah, checked at least 10 stashes by now no luck.

[vapid dirge]

it took me a while this run to find any, just gotta rent the vice for a while

[graceful iron]

10 stashes by day 6?

[tacit yew]

Day 3-4 Already had basic and advanced kit, gunsmith and drug making kit, open all the bodies as you can, spam missions, and go to green stashes

[long grove]

Yeah, it’s my first anomaly / gamma play through.

[graceful iron]

@idle cloak you dont need to disable anything with artefacts reinvention, it should work just fine how many mods active and did you add any mods yourself ?

[idle cloak]

Nothing added and im running the gamma profile

I have removed all artefacts from my inventory

[graceful iron]

that explains a lot, are you friendly with loners? you can do the shotgun quest for hip (a stalker in rookie village) and she will give you a basic tool kit

[graceful iron]

post the crash log

[idle cloak]

it crashes on reload

[long grove]

Think im just under 1k with loners rep. Also, still have not found her particular weapon for that task.

[graceful iron]

toz 194

also, you will need a lot more than 10 stashes to get any tool kit depending on luck

[long grove]

Good to know.

[graceful iron]

crash log should be in anomaly/appdata/logs, its a text document

[idle cloak]

where do you want me to post the logs?

[graceful iron]

here, or in #old-bugs i guess

drag and drop the file

[tidal sentinel]

Hello, Im trying to get Groks masks to work the way I want it to but im having issues/troubles. If im having a durr moment let me know.

I want my game to look like the first image (that I copy and pasted from someone in this discord) and I also want the distortion on the corners gone. I know this is possible because i've done this in vanilla Anomaly a year ago and i absolutely loved it. I tried reinstalling Mask reflections (129) in MO2 and selecting OPT1 while also disabling "No mask textures" under GAMMA fixes but it just shows "Shadows/Dark spots" rather then a more "realistic" overlay. If anyone has any ideas or to tell me im missing something id appreciate it!

First image (this is what I want)

Second image (what I have right now, after doing the instructions I listed).

[graceful iron]

it could be a difference in masks

is this the same mask in both images?

[tidal sentinel]

I went in debug and tried a bunch on and they all had the same overlay in image 2

[tidal sentinel]

Yes thats what I want. That being the first image. I dont know why its not working for me. AFAIK im doing the instructions correctly..

moddb link
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/groks-4k-and-reflections-for-navs-mask-v12#comments

I dont seem to understand

if you're referring to the modpack GAMMA, yes.

Im only getting the shadow of the overlay rather then a more "accurate" portrayal of a gas mask (ex. the first image showing the nose piece)

thats what I cant figure out

[tidal sentinel]

Okay I finally fixed it, I wasnt setting the directories correctly by right clicking it

[graceful iron]

what directories ?

[tidal sentinel]

To get this gas mask overlay..
right clicked mask reflections (129) > install > Select No > Select OPT3 as <stalker anomaly directory> | > personal choice of either Blurred or Crisp

I was following someone elses instructions when I ctrl+f'd this discord and they only mentioned that they installed the OPT1 option and that was not working for me at all

do you also know if theres a way to remove the outline behind groks health? its in the bottom left of the screen. It disappeared at some point when I toggled hud but its still there now even if i turn off the hud

[peak atlas]

What was the fix for the nvg not working?

Cfg load grading warm says cfg not found

[graceful iron]

thats not the fix for nvgs not working, holding n blurs the screen?

[peak atlas]

yup

[peak atlas]

but no nightvision just blur

[graceful iron]

dx10 or 11?

[peak atlas]

11

dx11-avx

[graceful iron]

and 261 mods active i assume? unless you didnt update recently so it could be 256 or 252

[peak atlas]

255 without the framerate optimisation mods, minus fast travel and campfire on optional and new item highlight, disabled music, mags redux enabled

updated yesterday

[graceful iron]

you reinstalled beef's nvgs and ticked only the nvgs option?

[peak atlas]

yup

[graceful iron]

apparently, try deleting shaders_cache?

i am not sure this is going to do much, but i am not sure what else we can try

[rigid karma]

Silly me the scope is sold by npcs you give tools to... Didn't know that was one of them

[graceful iron]

nimble?

[graceful iron]

i just made sure, someone fixed the bug of nvgs not working by deleting the shader cache folder in anomaly/appdata

[peak atlas]

Fixed it thanks

[reef galleon]

how do you mark a stash?

[graceful iron]

you cant, you can put items in a stash and it will automatically have an icon on the map

getting stash locations from quests or dead bodies marks the stashes on the map

[tidal sentinel]

Hello, I want glass reflections off permanently on my masks. Its off in the player settings but everytime the mask comes off (putting it in my inventory, eating/drinking, etc) glass reflections turns back on once the mask reapplies itself.
Anyway to stop this?

[graceful iron]

i honestly dont know so i guess grok will answer that when he is online

[tidal sentinel]

Alright cool, thanks!

[reef galleon]

thanks

for some reason some keys on my keyboard stop working randomly?

[sonic ermine]

my butcher m4 has a laser module on it, can i activate it?

found it, for anyone searching hold flashlight button

[wary field]

Are there other stats for weapons aside from accuracy, handling, dmg, etc? Like bullet velocity, drop, that kind of thing?

[graceful iron]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[neat furnace]

where is the GAMMA RC3 folder to put the THAP zip into? is it downloads?

[graceful iron]

yes

[neat furnace]

thanks

[clever hound]

Hello. I've checked all the boxes in settings to be able to fast travel to my backpack and yet it does'nt work. Why is that ?

[graceful iron]

you right click on it in the map and it wont open the fast travel menu?

[clever hound]

Nope

I can travel to other places without problem

But stashes does not work. It worked once

[graceful iron]

it can only be a backpack you put

[clever hound]

And then not anymore

[graceful iron]

not other stashes

[clever hound]

I know

I even replaced the stash to the other area and yet it still the same

What kind of bug is that could be ?

[slate goblet]

Have you tried disabling the limited fast travel mod in the optional section?

[clever hound]

Nope

[slate goblet]

You could try disable that first in mod organiser & see if it works

[clever hound]

Should I ?

Okay, will do

[rotund moss]

is backpack travel enabled at you save?

[clever hound]

Yes

[rotund moss]

hmm is debug mode active?

what would at least allow you to fast travel directly to the stash you placed, it would be up to you to not abuse it tho

[clever hound]

No, debug is turned off. I guess that would be a last option if anything else won't help

[slate goblet]

Yeah. But I'd suggest disabling the limited fast travel mod in MO first. See if that helps

[clever hound]

And It did'nt

[slate goblet]

Oh darn...

[clever hound]

It's weird. At first it worked just fine

Maybe I have to change a level in order to refresh it ?

[graceful iron]

make sure backpack travel is enabled? maybe you enabled it before updating and updating reset the settings?

[clever hound]

I am 100% sure it's enabled

[slow fox]

Ive read that the armour repair is done in the same manner as guns, yet it seems to behave in the same way as anomaly. As in i can repair it by using stuff bought from the mechanic and the parts inside will repair too

[clever hound]

How about making a separate section in pda for fast travels ? It seems pda markpoints are bugged. Most of the time they don't even work. or just a certain point works.

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual , they are similar but not the exact same. still armor repair is not the same as base anomaly either

[slow fox]

Ok

Damn, i start to feel the survivalist difficulty. Ive been doing lots of quests for my merc faction and dont even have 500 rep

And traders dont even sell guns in this mod

Makes me question whether having scavenger would have actually made much difference

[rotund moss]

i usually play on scavenger and its a mixed bag, how ever once you got used to it, you could call it easy

[slow fox]

I mean its fun in a way. I kind of always thought that for all traders to have all guns and armour was a bit too much. I could understand military and duty for example. But others..

Right now im fine with the survivalist, quite enjoyable. Just the rep grind is a bit much

[grave plover]

remember you can tweak the values to your liking

[slow fox]

Actually yeah, good point. I think ill tweak that a little

[torn spindle]

Just updated Gamma and I have this black screen (Playable if you are a daredevil from Marvel comic 😅) every time I start a new game or load my game, is anyone have the same problem?

[graceful iron]

delete the shaders_cache folder in anomaly/appdata

if that does not work try the black and white screen fix in #│🔧troubleshooting

[ember herald]

Is it worth spamming sidorovich to get stashes locations

I've yet to get basic tools

[willow hawk]

Depends on your difficulty

Just get the toz to Hip to get basic tools

[ember herald]

Oh ok she gives basic tools instead of the outfit

Gotcha

[void pagoda]

to be fair the outfit she gives in normal anomaly was one of the best possible early game outfits which was a bit OP

[quick pebble]

is there a fix for putting the deerhunter kit on the R700 or does it only work for the m700 or something

[willow hawk]

it crashes ?

[quick pebble]

Yeah

[slow fox]

@graceful iron hello, just regarding the stutters i was getting. from i can see on the console they happen when it says the game spawns artefacts, and also when there is an action connected to the bounty squad

idk if theres a solution, just giving an update

[graceful iron]

what is your average fps?

you can turn fps counter on by pressing the home button and then going to settings tab and show fps

if the fps is somewhat low you can try #old-framerate-optimisation

if its only stutters with those console events i have no idea

[topaz berry]

if i updated my gamma installation can will i be able to play a save from yesterday that had busy hands or not?

or at least will it be playable?

[graceful iron]

you can try playing, if the bug is still there you can try doing a complete installation #💽how-to-update but there is no 100% fix yet other than loading a save where the bug didnt happen yet(and thats still hit and miss)

[willow hawk]

Perhaps. But try reloading an older save

[topaz berry]

oh ok, thanks

should i look after a save with certain characteristics?

i disabled fdda animations from mod settings because i realized that might be the problem

[willow hawk]

Be sure to update and disable Crooks UI

And load the oldest save you have

[topaz berry]

thanks

[quick pebble]

My quick saves used to be very quick but for some reason they now take ages to load

Anybody know how to fix this

[graceful iron]

try closing the game and deleting the shaders_cache folder you can find in anomaly/appdata

dont keep the game running for more than 6 hours at the same time

[slow fox]

i think i might have found a bug or something. ive dropped a bunch of weapon parts with very low health. when i returned to the location the two stalkers who were there before were dead (duty killed them) and they both had weapon parts in their inventory. 2-4 parts each and in 100% condition

soo ??? -> profit?

[quick pebble]

Ah good that fixed it

Now I need to get a new fucking m700 I can use the conversion kits on :/

[slow fox]

how does the bounty party system operate? my game crashed and when i reloaded it freedom shoots at me, even though i never shot at them

before it crashed they didnt shoot me

same with an older save ( some faction guys are shooting at me some dont. i can still talk to them and stuff but they shoot

i have 350 rep

[willow hawk]

1. stop alt tabbing. 2) delete shader cache 3) reboot the game

[willow hawk]

Which kit on which gun ?

[quick pebble]

Deer hunter on the r700

[quick ravine]

does the RF reciever work? it never changes its beeping speed and only 1 light is flickering no matter where I go

[torn spindle]

Did that aaaaand crashed

[torn berry]

i know this is a really dumb question but each faction has their own specific weapons right?

its not just a toss up wich wep the game gives them

[delicate sand]

#│📚manual message

[torn berry]

nvm found my answer #│📚manual message

[quick ravine]

ty, I've read that, but still unsure if it works... I was on the right frequency on the east side of agroprom and I swear I ran everywhere. Beeping rate didn't change

[delicate sand]

You missed it somewhere

[quick ravine]

i cri

[sonic field]

Is there a way to change how fast time passes?

In game obviously

I want to make 1 hour in game take 20 minutes irl

[willow hawk]

You need to be in a map with RF stash and set it to the correct frequency

[willow hawk]

There might a ltx file about that but I forgot which one. Ask Anomaly modding discord

[sonic field]

I can’t get 2fa because my old account was deleted by discord

So I can’t message there

Maybe someone else could ask for me

It’s not really that important, more of a preference really

[fiery jasper]

I like how long the days and nights are, its always a pet peeve of mine when i walk somewhere like 10 minutes away in a game just for it to already be sunset by the time im there

[slow topaz]

Did thap rework get added to the installer already or does it need to be done manually yet?

[grave plover]

yes you can! check for time_factor in alife.ltx, tweak it to you likings oh and also here are some parameters for switching the alife on in x meters (for performance reasons). The archive has all vanila values except from the start date

[sonic field]

Thanks mate, much appreciated

[ember herald]

turn off this if you cant right click on the fast travel icon

turns out that the white circle thing on the pda makes you unable to right on it

sometimes

[royal oxide]

how do you use NVG scopes?

[ember herald]

long press N button

wait no im dumb

[grave plover]

nvg googles? long press n, go to #│💻keybinds-in-gamma for other controls

[ember herald]

duno about nvg scopes specifically?

i only know nvg goggles exist

[torn berry]

nvg scopes is M

but yeah #│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[royal oxide]

thanks!

[fiery jasper]

also heres what i meant earlier, because of the scope the bizon toz pops in and out with the holstering animation. id imagine theres no real fix for this but i thought id ask anyway

[sonic field]

You’d just have to extend the animation

Doubt anyone would want to do that

[fiery jasper]

i would if i knew how but thats beyond my knowledge

all i can do is textures and edit config files

[cunning talon]

This might be a silly question but is there any way that newish global chat mod would work with Gamma?

[quick ravine]

that would be kinda cool

[willow hawk]

Time factor slows down everything I think

[grave plover]

i think there is some conflicts when you change time factor, atleast from my experience in modding stalker cop they said it would bug the scripted mission where you go to the bloodsucker lair

[willow hawk]

Bizon toz will be removed

[fiery jasper]

😔

is there any other reason why its being removed or is it solely this peeve with the scope

[willow hawk]

Well eitherway I rework it from the ground up

Or I just remove it

Don't worry there's a scoped shotgun that will arrive

Automatic, dual scoped shotty

With 20 round mags

[fiery jasper]

nice

i guess a sighted remington can suffice with the help of free zoom (i dont actually know how accurate the bizon toz i never really tried it was planning to try it this playthrough)

[grave pivot]

What are other voicelines for mercs?

I hear when mercs fight its from cod mw2 shadow company

whats the chatter where they talk about delta guys?

[desert robin]

How does this work with quests that have timers? time events, and the hoard of other stuff that relies and uses the time values? (meds, food/hunger etc) Ive wanted to edit the time values but looking on the moddb pages of mods that do this seems to be questionable.

[grave plover]

if now a medkit heals for 10% in 5 seconds if you change the time factor you will need to rebalance everything to the new time factor... i think. For myself i only fiddled with the date and starting time and the switch_distance parameters (meters which is alife ON = performance / stuttering, vanila anomaly value is 750)

[desert robin]

What did you set your switch distance to to address stuttering?

[quick ravine]

did anyone find toolkits in white stashes?

[brittle apex]

Toolkits? Not me. I set like 1% chance to drop.

If you meant tools. Yeah I get them pretty often

[grave plover]

ill explain to my understanding: there is 4 parameters, objects_per_update which i think is how many objects loads the engine at a time (default is 20, i have it on 1), switch_distance where the number is how many meters where alife is ON (default anomaly is 750 / on misery mod was like 450-550 and vanila like 300, i have it on 750) then auto_switch which can be true (on) or false (off) (default is false = off), and last there is a subparameter for the auto_switch called auto_switch_distance_normal which is like switch_distance but when you have activated auto_switch <- that i think it functions as a pseudo on the fly where the game switches from your switch_distance parameter and auto_switch_distance_normal. For example i play switch_distance 750 but then the game switches to my auto_switch_distance_normal parameter 500 for performance reasons so i would have alife on 500 meters instead of 750. You will need to test some parameters for yourself, for me, does this work? I dont know... i play on an ssd and still xray stutters sometimes loading alife, stutters wont be gone miraculously but maybe they will be alleviated. Sorry for wall of text

[desert robin]

Thanks man. Where did you source this info? Or is it all just experimenting or theory? Im just trying to unwravel some of this stuff too 😛

I can confirm about the switch distance, i know that from testing

Not sure about auto switch distance normal though

[grave plover]

i can only say years of playing modded stalker

check this link if you wanna read more https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-misery/forum/thread/alifeltx-objects-per-upate-stuttering-reduction

also in anomaly addons page there is an addon that touches this with a video comparison

[desert robin]

@grave plover Ah ok thanks for that. I just scanned anomaly discord about auto switch... found this :<

[grave plover]

could be, im playing fine atm but i have both values at 750

[desert robin]

What was the logic between changing the start times and the start date?

[grave plover]

ocd (check the date on your pda) , and for start time if you want to start at midnight or whenever you want

[cosmic swift]

guys i have a question i need some classified information for the eggheads and i could not find them in that area

nvm i have found it im so dumb XD

[grave pivot]

interesting textures

[royal oxide]

is that how NVG is supposed to look like, or is something wrong?

[grave plover]

its intended

[grave pivot]

yep, thats even good quality

high quality night vision stuff

[royal oxide]

i mean, I can see clearly outside the green circle

[grave pivot]

then dont use it

this is how it feels to use gen 1 night vision

[willow hawk]

That's invaluable knowledge. In my 2 years of modding Anomaly I never checked these hahaha

So how's GAMMA compared to your other modded stalker experiences ?

[grave plover]

im enjoying it really much, and i have played since LURK for SOC

progression is really good and fun because it makes me use existing mechanics like crafting which i never and i mean never used through other playthrougs in anomaly. Also im a big fan of travelling and backtracking so i play with low loot chances and trader destockifier and that means i need to travel a bit to replenish my basic needs. Was a big fan of the trading system in dead air, i mean with random stalkers and not only traders so maybe this could be a suggestion

[modern fern]

Why are the food animations disabled by default? Busy hands related?

[grave plover]

yes they are disabled for now to help backtrack that malicious bug

[willow hawk]

Busy hands yes. I'm working on improving that

[grave plover]

message from the bot is still on some channels #old-feedback-suggestions #updated-mods-in-gamma #old-suggest #╟🎑reshades #╟🔫loadouts

[royal oxide]

nvm, you can change the overlay to black in mcm settings

[karmic shore]

Is there a way to change in setting to tell when im bleading or not?

[grave plover]

i think its on visual but its a bit obnoxious

visual -> player -> bleeding effect

[eager acorn]

Im new to all this stuff

any ideas why reshade is doing this?

everything is black

[karmic shore]

Thank you!

[willow hawk]

Did you change the Reshade ?

[eager acorn]

I did

[willow hawk]

Then, just know what you are doing

[eager acorn]

dang

[willow hawk]

Complete install of GAMMA should fix this

[eager acorn]

Okey dokey, thanks

[vivid basin]

heya

what does it mean in #old-framerate-optimisation that i need to untic keverything when i right click beefs nvgs

theres like nothing to untick in the drop down menu

[willow hawk]

Reinstall mod

[vivid basin]

ohhh thanks a lot

and then replace ?

[karmic shore]

What do the numbers above your health mean

Above the radiation bar

[willow hawk]

Yes

[soft topaz]

Is there a mod that disables weapon selling? seems weird that i cant sell a 100% condition mp5 to any trader

[vivid basin]

okie thanks

[willow hawk]

?

[willow hawk]

It's part of GAMMA Economy

[soft topaz]

Ahh ok, worried i had broken something, no worries

[grave pivot]

i think its possible to turn it off in some menu

[soft topaz]

il have a look but thank you both 🙂

[grave pivot]

imo i dont feel economy being much different than anomaly, except harder start

[grave plover]

firemode A for automatic and 1 for single, then above you get the bars for the body health

[grave pivot]

do npc have jams? I see them reloading very often

[karmic shore]

Thank you

[old geode]

wHAT anomaly is that big black ball of smoke?

[torn berry]

think its a variation of the poltergeist

[old geode]

hmm, not killable?

it one shoted me

[soft topaz]

If its an anomaly probably not

[old geode]

ok thanks, so avoid black smoke. I never seen this anomaly in OG Anomaly mod.

[torn berry]

the big black ball of smoke can be killed

just aim for its center

its the same with the poltergheists

[sharp roost]

yea, takes a couple shots tho

they beefy

[torn berry]

the hitbox is also kinda wonky, they'l grunt on hit

[sharp roost]

it was a bit easier with the poltergeists cus they'd scream your ears out when they got hit

[torn berry]

yeah

[sharp roost]

the grunting is hard to hear sometimes imo

[torn berry]

how do you get into eco's base as a UNISG to get the helm

so i can enter red forest

im assuming disguise as any of the friendly to them factions

[hollow loom]

disguise

yeah

ecos are friendly to uh

[torn berry]

cheers

[hollow loom]

like 80% of factions

be careful though, you need to get in and out FAST

[torn berry]

yeah im using a clear sky, should be fine

yeah i just wanna pay sakharov for the helm

and bail

[dapper iron]

When FDDA will return to GAMMA?

[ember herald]

i mean u can always enable them in mo2

[torn berry]

yeah FDDA can be turned on, its just grok is atm trying to hunt down the busy hands root

[neat furnace]

Is there a way to update GAMMA without losing my settings? It goes back to default whenever I update

[tacit yew]

macking a backup of user.ltx?

[neat furnace]

would that cause issues if an addon gets added in the future?

[tacit yew]

not sure... i'd wait until groks reponse, or make screenshots like i do @neat furnace

@graceful iron ?

[neat furnace]

ok thanks!

[graceful iron]

?

for the most part you can keep a backup of user ltx yes, and for mcm settings

[graceful iron]

deleting shader cache crashed ? wut

[north turret]

If I activate trader overhaul, can I still continue my current playthrough? Or is it not safe at all to do this for an already existing save

[graceful iron]

i think its safe, but you might want to disable gamma economy first

[mossy seal]

is there a max level for the skills?

[graceful iron]

25

[junior night]

Millitary skat-9 bulat or monolith exosuit (radiation suit)? Have both repaired, wondering which is better

[graceful iron]

exosuit is more resistant than skat-9s in general

[slow fox]

Is it normal that when i loot bodies when the screen first opens i can see some loot for a split second, and then some loot disappears?

[karmic shore]

Is it possible to turn off only being able to sleep when your tired

[graceful iron]

yes, the skill system makes it with low scavenging you lose some loot and with high scavenging you gain some loot

[slow fox]

Ok cool tuanks

[graceful iron]

yes, but its easy to drink some vodka or eat some sleeping pills and use a sleeping bag instead of a bed for better sleep and have a bed spread in your inventory so you are less likely to wake up early. to go back to normal anomaly sleep you can disable gamma sleep balance, immersive sleep and fdda immersive sleep patch

[vapid dirge]

do mercs just not want to hang with me, or are they normally tough to recruit as companions

[torn spindle]

Yes, but never mind just fixed it by reinstalling it. Thank you so much❤

[graceful iron]

you need to be a higher rank and to have high goodwill with them

[vapid dirge]

I have high rank and goodwill, my duty/freedom runs i got companions easy

these mercs just have some better motives

[graceful iron]

make sure you are not asking guards or main characters

and keep in mind 2 is the companion limit and once you get folk hero achievement you can get 4

[vapid dirge]

im usually askin in dead city where i can find one

ive only had 2 companions once this play, since then ive only been able to grab one

[fiery jasper]

would anyone know how to change the pda message system to just disable the "CONNECTION LOST..." message when a blowout or psy storm starts

[slow fox]

@fiery jasper would that be in the game settings?

Not even mcm just normal settings

[fiery jasper]

I tried setting it to "no warning" but the pda message always appears

[slow fox]

Ok then idk😀

[fiery jasper]

Im currently looking in the unpacked files to figure out where the pda even gets its messages

[fiery jasper]

tyy

i should be able to make the change for myself from here

[fiery jasper]

i got it

idk why but that connection lost message always peeved me couldnt tell you why

[slow fox]

is there perhaps a spreadsheet for the helmets in gamma? the armour one is amazing

[fiery jasper]

I still dont know how helpful helmets are in anomaly

Do they actually protect your head or is it just a flat ballistic resistance bonus? Maybe they actually protect your noggin thanks to the body health system

[graceful iron]

they only protect the head, and they have the most radiation res in gamma so that makes them really powerful

[graceful iron]

for armor and helmets you can hold left alt and then hover over them in the inventory if they are damaged, will show you their full stats as if they are fully repaired so you can compare multiple of them

you can use this for artefacts as well

[reef galleon]

i didn't know that thanks cat for always having the answers

[fiery jasper]

Ty

So helmets do probably be pretty important in normal anomaly too

[graceful iron]

they protected from headshots and any damages that hit the head bones i believe, even in anomaly but i would assume the health system does it in a different way

[limber sorrel]

how can I clear out old versions of addons in the download folder?

do I have to manually go through and delete them or is there a thing in the installer

[graceful iron]

no you have to go to the downloads folder and clear old versions manually, just make sure you dont delete any newer versions

[limber sorrel]

damn alright thanks

[teal marlin]

what mod are you guys using for night vision in this pack?

[graceful iron]

beef's nvgs

[teal marlin]

thanks imma yoink this for my own private setup

[graceful iron]

ok?

[limber sorrel]

[rotund moss]

remind me, who are the Mothertruckers dropping the MP7 again?

[unique coral]

Does limb damage heal over time? or is there an item I need to buy?

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual healing

you need to use first aid(yellow health) and then post heal(white health)

[unique coral]

okay, so I think i need patience then, I used first aid, then used heroin.

[graceful iron]

first aid like bandages or medkits and post heal like yadulin or ibuprofen

[unique coral]

or ya, yadulin is what i ment, sorry.

thank you.

[graceful iron]

each medical item has in its properties what it does

[unique coral]

Ya i figured when it said post heal the letters ment parts of the body.

[graceful iron]

[tidal sentinel]

I never found an answer on google but is the tree flickering impossible to fix or is there a way to make it not look so bad

I assume its just part of the engine?

[wise sparrow]

usually monolith or mercs. should be easy to find one in the radar or on the patrols in zaton.

[wise sparrow]

no idea what you mean by "tree flickering". if you are talking about the aliasing on the trees yes it's not great the only real solution is to play at a higher resolution or use driver level super sampling if you have an nvidia card.

[tidal sentinel]

Yeah the anti-aliasing. They "flicker" really bad whenever I walk. I heard the anti aliasing option in settings doesnt do anything. I've never noticed a difference.

or use driver level super sampling if you have an nvidia card.

If I use AMD am I pretty screwed then?

[wise sparrow]

don't have an amd card but i don't think AMDs super sampling is out yet.

[tidal sentinel]

That'd be too bad. I'll have to look into it. ty

[wise sparrow]

quick google got me this. good luck https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/dh-010

my bad

[graceful iron]

gamma has a few gamma exclusive mods and patches tho

[glad schooner]

oooo

yeah but. im whiny about gamma cause i couldnt nerf it down to run on my laptop properly. i couldnt find certain things i needed to remove and i screwed it a few times so i gave up

[graceful iron]

did you ask for help?

[glad schooner]

no

[graceful iron]

it could just be some easy fix...

[glad schooner]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/493156996644864001/964133027674464306/ezgif.com-gif-maker.gif

it probably was

tell me though

is there more guns than provaks?

[graceful iron]

gamma has BaS and has a small weapon pack made by grok and a few others that will be added soon along with CWWP that will be hopefully added when its out

[glad schooner]

the whole game to me is about the guns

[graceful iron]

the game is a first person shooter but dont forget its also a survival game

[glad schooner]

i turn hardcore AI aim on, turn up the difficulty, and try to fight 40 people by myself

it's loot and shoot to me

i gotta look at the changes in gamma though, im not too sure what all is there

[graceful iron]

ok no need for the gif spam

[glad schooner]

sorry lol

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual

[glad schooner]

:0

ok ill download it

[graceful iron]

if you will download gamma make sure to follow #old-how-to and read the important notes before

[glad schooner]

mhm

i will come back after i need to remove addons to aid performance

[graceful iron]

#old-framerate-optimisation but you can ask here about the pack and if you need help

[glad schooner]

yee yee, thanks bro

[desert robin]

Anyone elses companion teleport not working? Pressing J does nothing

[torn berry]

Gamma is quite allright, worst comes to worse you can use DX8

[graceful iron]

the mod is disabled, you can enable it just fine

[desert robin]

Damn, yep. thanks

[grave plover]

for amd make a custom resolution, it will alias the image

[graceful iron]

?

[willow hawk]

Provak has only janky low quality shit.

GAMMA adds BAS level quality guns only. And new guns exclusive to GAMMA are coming

[rotund moss]

save scummed Aslans Lottery while sporting my Wolven Suit (day 2 and they still dont know im actually a Loner) to see what he has in store after the changes and got one from him, but good to know i also can encounter it in the wild

[willow hawk]

Use texture packs without leaves
