Don't use anything with yellow text

[vapid hull]

the PiP scopes?

[hoary veldt]

They're 3D Scopes and can kill your performance

[atomic grove]

I'm not sure I've seen any yellow text anywhere 😮

Okay I suppose I'll just play around to find the ones that don't do it

[vapid hull]

if you can zoom the scope independently from the "main game" outside the scope then it's going to kill your fps

as its re rendering the game inside that scope

[atomic grove]

Ahh I'd thought it might be that

Thanks for the confirm

[vapid hull]

[swift breach]

so is the skill system similar to tarkov? level strength by moving while carrying more than your limit, level endurance by moving while carrying less, and so on?

[hoary veldt]

Level strength by carrying near your limit, level endurance by carrying less yes

how do i collect soil samples for professor kovalev?

[bleak egret]

Is there in fact any way to decrease loading times? I have an NVME and was hoping to get a bit faster on dem loading screens.

[vapid hull]

my loading screens on a shitty nvme drive is around 20-30 seconds

what do you get?

[vagrant star]

im on a hard drive and i get the same times wtf

[vapid hull]

[olive haven]

did the acces code to X18 lab second locked door changed location? The room with the pseudogiant has an unlootable box and thats it

[soft leaf]

the pseudogiant sometimes throws the scientist around the room with its stomp

it's best to go into x18 with a pda 2.0 to get the body dots

[bleak egret]

Bout 10s

[vapid hull]

oh well im not sure you're going to get instant loading screens

there is inherently latency to reading data from the drive, processing it and then doing whatever randomization needs to be done

[vagrant star]

the loading screens in unmodded anomaly are way better, i wonder what mods cause it to slow down so much

[soft leaf]

for me it's the opposite

[bleak egret]

Not for long. MS has that new Direct Storage coming out

[soft leaf]

i've also read that having the game on the same drive as your OS helps with loading times

[vagrant star]

that might be slowing mine down, mine is on a secondary hard drive

[bleak egret]

Yeah i have it on C:STALKERANOMALYGAMMAHAPPYFUNTIMEMOD directory so its where its supposed to be

[kindred wing]

how does one remove the ZF scope from a kar? The typical way seems to work with every rifle save my kurtz

[vapid hull]

i would have to know a lot more about how the game works to give you a good answer but i dont think the latency of an nvme drive and it's transfer speed of like 300MB/S is going to be the bottleneck

[quiet willow]

#📎to-do message

[bleak egret]

Well, mine is 7GBs per second

Was hoping for a bit more OOMPH

[vapid hull]

[kindred wing]

gotcha.

[olive haven]

went 5x through the room and there is no body at all anywhere

not even on the containers

and PDA 2.0 don't work inside lab it shows the outside map only

[soft leaf]

they appear in the minimap

[olive haven]

minimap says nothing in the room too

[atomic grove]

I'm losing FPS on all scopes past 4x, not just the yellow text ones

is the game choosing to render more in the distance upon zoom?

[vapid hull]

probably

So if I field-strip a gun I can take out everything except the barrel. But to then put the parts back into it, I can't do it by hand?

and for anyone who uses the Mags redux addon, what does the "retool" option do?

[graceful iron]

you can, but the gun needs to be clean aka high condition

[graceful iron]

it uses the multitool to change the ammo used by the magazine for guns that have conversion upgrades

[swift breach]

cool, that's nice

[glossy canyon]

does anyone know why technicians cant repair armor?

[graceful iron]

they cant repair armor anymore because that bypasses the craft/repair mechanics for armors completely. see the manual in your pda or #╭📖faq for a detailed guide on how to repair armors

[swift breach]

that's by design for gamma

[graceful iron]

so if you are wondering, no its not a bug

[glossy canyon]

ok, thanks

[swift breach]

and apparently doing it by hand ruins the gun's condition lol

[graceful iron]

yes

[swift breach]

tested it and my gun went from 79% to 55% condition after stripping and then reinstalling all parts

I have achieved learning

[graceful iron]

this is basically an early game way to repair any gun if it has a good barrel

so it has to have some down sides

[soft leaf]

replacing parts by hand only ruins the gun when it's in relatively good shape

that's why you want to: clean the barrel or do stuff until it's >25% but still orange, replace everything by hand, and then use cleaning kits to restore it to 100%

unless of course you have repairing kits and tools

[graceful iron]

it will always reduce the overall gun condition and at a certain condition they cant even be put into the gun anymore

[swift breach]

and under a certain condition no repair/cleaning kits can be used either

[ivory comet]

Sorry for the same post guys but I really can’t find this stash, it’s not the toolbox on the left by the lockers or the underground sewer, where could it be?

[hoary veldt]

Have you tried the roof?

[ivory comet]

I didn’t know you can reach the roof XD I’ll take a look

[vagrant star]

is it safe to remove Limit Fast Travel?

[ivory comet]

[vagrant star]

sometimes stashes can be hidden "in" things, like a pipe or cracked tree stump, although they dont have a physical model and you just have to look for the hole

[tall charm]

odd for some reason i cant use my cookin kit on a campfire

dog meat isnt elite meat so it should work aye?

[vagrant star]

try getting closer and reopening your inventory

[tall charm]

in right on the barrel is the thing xD

any further in and im setting myself on fire

may just be a weird fire glitch

[vagrant star]

does it have a map icon?

[tall charm]

lmao figured it out

it was a fire glitch

the "fire" in question was animated, giving light and sound

but was not actually "lit"

[vagrant star]

lol

[tall charm]

i even stepped in the barrel and it set me ablaze

but for all intents and purposes it wasnt "lit"

i relit it with a match and it worked properly

classic x-18 jank

[vagrant star]

do i need to use the artefact melter to recharge artefacts?

[rare sluice]

What am I even supposed to rescue the rogue scout squad from?

[graceful iron]

[rare sluice]

Yeah

[graceful iron]

there should be a monolith squad in a nearby building

How do I use the PSY HELMET after I get it from the ecologists? Does it attach to a helmet?

[vagrant star]

why is my pda super zoomed in? it takes up the entire screen

[hoary veldt]

It's just an item that exists in your inventory, so you can wander into the Psyfields in Yantar, Radar, Red Forest and beyond

Be warned it does not protect you from normal psy-fields

[hoary veldt]

Press R to put your PDA away from your face

[vagrant star]

no like it was so zoomed in parts of it were going off screen

[hoary veldt]

Were you free zoomed in or something?

[vagrant star]

whats that

[hoary veldt]

It's a key to make you zoom your camera in

By default it's mouse 4

[vagrant star]

no it wasnt that

it went away on its own so idk what it was

also how do i see if i have a bounty? i have positive relations with loners but they are attacking me

[hoary veldt]

Typically someone will message on the channels about your character having someone after you

And what do you mean? You have positive goodwill or positive faction relation?

[vagrant star]

both

[hoary veldt]

Did you accidentally hit one of them with grenade shrapnel or something?

[vagrant star]

no i killed 3 for a quest

[hoary veldt]

If you killed 3 loners, then obviously they're gonna attack you

[vagrant star]

yeah but its different loners across the map

[hoary veldt]

What's your reputation then?

[vagrant star]

its 211

[hoary veldt]

If you have low reputation, people will attack you

Not your relation

Your reputation

Is it bad or something

[vagrant star]

where do i see reputation

[hoary veldt]

Your statistic screen in the PDA

[vagrant star]

its neutral

[hoary veldt]

And you're playing what faction?

Also is 211 your goodwill?

[vagrant star]

im also a loner and have 211 goodwill

[hoary veldt]

Then I have no clue

I'm just gonna assume some relationship system is telling those loners you killed the prior 3 loners and they don't like you because of it

[astral wigeon]

@willow hawk is there a solid reason as to why you should run in borderless windowed instead of fullscreen? I know for Fallout New Vegas it's to help Alt+Tabbing but does it have any significant performance increase for Stalker? to run in Fullscreen instead of borderless?

[vagrant star]

Fullscreen should provide a performance boost however it probably wont be much, and running borderless fullscreen makes alt+tabbing work better

is there a way to repair gun parts below 10%? Or do I just have to find new ones?

[hoary veldt]

A part repair kit from a mechanic should work but they're damn expensive

[vagrant star]

those are only usable above 10%

[hoary veldt]

I mean a literal part repair kit

[vagrant star]

yeah, that wont work if its below 10% it says on the tooltip

[hoary veldt]

Then probably not

Shouldn't be hard to find parts above 10% anyways

[willow hawk]

I always recommend to play in Fullscreen. I don't know where you saw you should play in borderless.

Yes Fullscreen avoids stutters

[astral wigeon]

I might have to reinstall GAMMA lmao

it's hard crashing after I get into a fight with any mutant

weird

I haven't added any severe mods that should break it either

[willow hawk]

You still added other mods

Therefore, do a complete install and stop assuming you know how to mod this game and then complain about a crash

[astral wigeon]

what?

how did I assume?

if I assumed I knew how to mod the game I wouldn't be asking here now would I?

the only reason I kinda know what I am doing is I make mods for FNV

[brisk zinc]

100% you added them "the wrong way", I saw what you did in #🔨modded-gamma-support, GAMMA is based on a specific mod list with specifics conflicts and overrides, if you add stuff without knowing what they do, problems will happen

That's why Grok told you about "assuming" that you didn't do anything wrong

[astral wigeon]

So how would I go about getting HD models to play nicely in this mod list? any extra steps I need to do?

[willow hawk]

Perform a complete install, play the game to see if it doesn't crash, then ask for help in #🔨modded-gamma-support

Quick question, I was trying Azazel mode
I started as a merc but then I died, but after dying I turned myself into a Bandit instantly in the same place
I'm not supossed to just die, loading screen and then respawn as someone in another random place?

Like, it's a bug or an weird add-on

[willow hawk]

Azazel is untested in gamma

[shell magnet]

some of my water is black lol

is there a reason ?

And i got a charcoal black dog

[graceful iron]

the black dog is a base anomaly mutant...

[small fossil]

Hey guys, i'm new to the mod. How can i fix my broken/"0 health" leg?

[bleak egret]

Bandages will give it Temp Health (Yellow). After that, you need a Permanent Health healing item (White) to convert the temp hp to full hp.

[vagrant star]

my screen goes black and i hear a gunshot and i die, what is doing this?

[full orbit]

Ok so first time playing a stalker game and i finale got to the radar map with the monolith (had no clue where to go for main story) ,,, did i mess up by taking to long because everyone is a professional or higher and i saw a legend in the mix. i have medium armor and a nice solid sniper, but i cant upgrade more because my RNG on stashes for elite tools is the hid and seek champion. (default and lowest scrub mode iirc: Tourist and nothing else changed for base Gamma settings)

[small fossil]

so i need temp health before i get perma health?

[bleak egret]

Yes. Step one: get shot. O no! My limb bar has a bunch gray on it now. Balls. Ok, use any healing item that has the little yellow dots in the description for that particular limb( aka Torso, Arms, Legs). Now the gray bar is yellow bar and the limb is function again, goody! Now you need a healing item with the white dots that affect that particular limb. The most basic one would be ibprofen or yaudlin.

[full orbit]

Some items give Yellowish health, then you take an item that has a white heart, this turns a portion (depending on the Dots when you look at the item (Hover or Details)) into White HP. White HP is Perm until damage. (My understanding)

[small fossil]

loved that explanation lol. Too bad i used my ib without knowing about this mechanic before

[bleak egret]

Either way, should prolly check out the in game manual in the PDA, or go to #│📚manual

[vagrant star]

also your main health is seperate from your limb health and doesnt function the same way

[bleak egret]

Say, is there a way to mass batch disassemble ammo in your inventory? Its kind of a pain to click on the 15 different ammo types i collect after every battle. Like a keybind that just nukes all ammo that is non-favorited in your inventory?

[delicate wharf]

that sounds like a reasonable loadout for radar, get to sniping them monos. I assume you have the psy helmet to survive in the north. The expert tools you need to get into the really heavy armors and advanced weapons is only found starting in the red forest / radar and further north so not having them when going to radar is completely normal

[full orbit]

@delicate wharf they just seem endless.

[bleak egret]

Has nothing to do with how long you took. That is just regular Radar.

Farther north you go, the saucier it gets

[delicate wharf]

endless high rank monoliths mean lots of chances to loot nice guns

[bleak egret]

Thats true, their faction seems to use weapons from every faction

[graceful iron]

your psy health reaches 0, dont run into a psy anomaly or emission

[full orbit]

@vagrant star Also you shoot yourself to "escape a worse fate" (You went insane)

im pretty sure i killed atleast 40 on my way to the stone wall, guess i need more then 100 bullets since some take more then 1 to the dome

[bleak egret]

yeah

100 is a biiiit low

especially if you are in Radar for a certain quest

[full orbit]

So i decided to fall back after picking up an Exo helmet (and bullets ran very low) and now im wondering
The Helmet has Durrability, but the items that make up the helmet has durrability
So what does it effect if the interior materials are at 37/100, but the entire helmet is 100/100?
A link or explanation is appreciated.

[hoary veldt]

The entire helmet can't go 100/100 unless the materials are 100 as well

Vice versa, if you put good materials into the helmet it'll get repaired

[full orbit]

so avg the % of the inner materials and then that is the max % helmet can be

[hoary veldt]

I guess?

Baseline is that the higher condition the materials in a piece of armor is, the higher condition it is

[calm temple]

Question, is there anyway I can make my character sleep? I simply keep getting the message they are not tired enough yet, despite it being the dead of night and having being running around since morning. I want to try and rest now while I have a chance, but I saw the recommendation of not messing with the deprivation values. Can I disable this particular feature or would that break everything?

[hoary veldt]

If you want to sleep, pop some sleeping pills

It won't recover your sleep bar but it'll let you pass the time

And you can disable the feature I think, but I don't recall how

[vagrant star]

alcohol can also make you tired but i think its very slow

[bleak egret]

Take sleeping pills or drink vodka

[calm temple]

I understand that, but I am in the very early game and right now, pretty strapped for supplies and money. I was wondering if there was a way to get my character to rest without having to pump them full of booze or drugs.

[hoary veldt]

Sleeping Pills aren't that expensive, you shouldn't break your bank over buying one packet

Finding them on Stalkers is fairly common

[bleak egret]

Also making sure to eat properly during the day is good too. Pretty much all decent foods decrease your sleep stat, so on par you should lose sleep due to food, and due to firefights making you consume medicine.

[calm temple]

See, that's what I am confused about. I have been fighting all day, using med kits, smoking, drinking, and yet its like 9 pm, and my sleep bar is only half way. I do not want to go trudging out into the swamps at night so my plan was to sleep til morning but it refuses to let me. I understand there are ingame options but what particular mod governs this?

[bleak egret]

What difficulty are you playing on? I wonder if that affects the stats.

[wooden nest]

picked up and artefact inside the lab in radar, it's not showing in my inventory, currently swimming in radiation, wtf is this?

[brisk zinc]

Don't touch sleep deprivation

It will ruin your save

[wise sparrow]

chain smoking keeps the sleep bar up there but it hasn't bothered me since i'm crazy enough to go into the truck cemetery at night with just a glowstick

[astral wigeon]

@willow hawk this is a PURE fresh install nothing was changed and I completely reinstalled anomaly and changed ZERO settings, and for some reason this scope is doing this on the SCAR H that comes with a scope

[graceful iron]

that looks like really messed up depth of field

[astral wigeon]

dof is turned off tho?

[graceful iron]

how many addons are active ?

[astral wigeon]

whatever is on by default, it's a fresh install of GAMMA

[astral wigeon]

only these

[graceful iron]

you can ignore those 2 your installation looks fine

did you have anything in the gamedata folder for the anomaly?

[astral wigeon]

nope

purely fresh

[graceful iron]

delete shaders_cache ?

[astral wigeon]

nope

shall I?

[graceful iron]

i am asking if you done it already but yes you should try that

[astral wigeon]

I did it for my old mod list setup whenever a mod in the description asks me too

[wise sparrow]

just tested it on my install and it works fine. that gun uses a pip scope though and I'm not sure if it actually drops or if they added it with debug.

[astral wigeon]

I added it with debug yeah

So it never drops?

[wise sparrow]

not that i've ever seen. there's some functional guns that aren't in stalker loadouts or in stashes. some guns in debug are just broken though which is why i tested that one to make sure it's supposed to be working.

[astral wigeon]

....

it doesn't help I never actually played the game

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/968014125068333086.gif?size=64

[graceful iron]

stop using debug and just play the game then

[wise sparrow]

the scope on it should be working though so there's probably something funky with the install

[willow hawk]

This is a PiP Scope, don't use that. There are like 3 scopes like this and of course you'll pick it up and report it

[astral wigeon]

Of course

[willow hawk]

No it should not

[ornate salmon]

picture in picture btw if u didnt get it

I have a gun with a damaged barrel. My part repair kit doesn't allow to repair the barrel. Am i doing something wrong?

[bleak egret]

What gun and what repair kit

[full bridge]

Remington 700 and "Part repair kit"

[jagged lance]

you'll need a historic weapon kit to repair the barrel in the gun

[bleak egret]

Pretty sure youll need a Historic Weapons Kit

[jagged lance]

the parts repair kit is for repairing completely broken parts that are in your inventory not in your gun

what % is the barrel at

[full bridge]

22

[jagged lance]

yeah you'll need a historic weapon kit

[full bridge]

Ok thank you guys

You are really quick ahahah

[jagged lance]

can make one if you have a basic toolkit

or you can buy one if you've given a mechanic basic tools

[bleak egret]

or buy one if you have... 1000 rep

with the faction the tech is with

[bleak egret]

oh, is it tool based? i thought rep was relevant there

[jagged lance]

nah rep is for other traders iirc

[zealous hawk]

how do i get better duty armour cause im in duty

[jagged lance]

think rep just gives mechanics more stuff but idk about that

more stuff as in more of the stuff they have but i have no idea

[jagged lance]

bring duty friends out on adventures and take the armour of their corpse

[bleak egret]

yeah idk, its prolly BOTH tools and rep

[zealous hawk]

sounds good

[haughty token]

I think rep more affects the trader, you want to give tools to the mechanic to be able to buy better repair kits

Or at least that’s how it appears to me anyhow

[jagged lance]

yeah thats my experience

[north turret]

How long does it take for traders to restock

And where can I change instead of saying goodwill it will say the points per faction

[tall charm]

Depends on the difficulty

[north turret]

I think hard

[tall charm]

Hard surv is usually 2-3 days

[north turret]

Thank you

[tall charm]

You can change the length in gameplay setting tho if you really wanna tweak it

[jagged lance]

theres a button on the pda to tell you the exact goodwill value

its on the top right on the relations screen iirc

[zealous hawk]

nah but srlsy how do u get fucking better armour

thrugh stashes

im guessing

[jagged lance]

yes

read the manual bro

[ornate salmon]

and #│🔧troubleshooting if trouble

[jagged lance]

and enemies

but youll find more armours on enemies the higher your rank is

[ornate salmon]

or u can set ur outfit drops on full

but thats an alternative

[haughty token]

Upgrades help big time

And the upgrade kits are reasonably plentiful

[north turret]

is there a command to revive important npcs? playing a military run and after running to the underground and resting my quest npc got chewed on.

[zealous hawk]

so does it matter if im wearing freedom armour but im with duty

[hollow olive]

im currently trying to manually download every addon that freezes up while being installed, what's the moddb page for the one called "freedom_mutants_videos.rar"?

there's none on the site

[charred glen]

will 1.0 gamma release break saves or will they be compatible ?

[willow hawk]

it will be compatible

[charred glen]

glorious, thanks 👍

[digital latch]

should I give the documents I find the underground levels to faction leaders or keep them?

Giving them away just gave you some goodies and money in Anomaly

[ivory comet]

^besides money and some goodies, are there other benefits/consequences for handing them into factions?

[pseudo harness]

it will disguise you as freedom, so duty will shoot you - just tear down patch from armor and you are good to go

[full bridge]

How do i get the stash? I can't open it from behind the barbed wire. (Sorry for the terrible quality of the photo)

Hi, I've found 2 gunsmithing tools, should I sell one then ? (iirc, you don't need them for mechanic quest right ?) thanks !

You only need one Gunsmithing tool, and that's for yourself.

[tall charm]

Yea sell that shit

[charred glen]

thanks !

[digital latch]

I'm gonna see what happens later but if Grok hasnt changed it you just get money and goodies, no goodwill or reputation

Its a mechanic ported straight from Dead Air where you needed to hand in those documents to unlock trader tiers

how can i stop my MCM settings resetting after each update?

or is there a way i can save all my MCM settings and put it back after an update?

does anyone else play with increased bullet power factor?

[north turret]

How do I reset all commands in debug mode? since its now showing every single stalker squad in the zone

I was messing around a bit

[tidal raft]

Disable Debug HUD.

[graceful cosmos]

I've been running into a few spots around agroprom that keep giving me "Unknown path" messages, mostly the sewer entrance and another place down south, is this intended due to future quests or something or?

[pseudo harness]

do you have all map transitions unlocked? for example do you see on map where is entrance to strelok's underground, to garbage, yantar etc.?
if not, you dont know way there and you have to find it or unlock it somehow

[tidal raft]

Did you untick "Accessible Zone" in the character creation?

[ornate salmon]

oh no

oh no...

[graceful cosmos]

Nope

[north turret]

How do I do this? The markers are still showing

[tidal raft]

I have a hard time believing that—unless you added an add-on not included in the modpack.

[tidal raft]

In the Debug Menu.

[graceful cosmos]

I've just updated the Gamma data and that was about it

Half an hour ago

Everything else is default that comes with the pack

[warped ginkgo]

Probably unticked accesible zones

Anyway doctor in swamps

Should give you access to it after you start the quest for strelok search

[thick pawn]

hey grok
do you your self play with increased bullet hit power factor? i feel like it actually makes it harder because u take way more damage but it also is a bit more rewarding when dogs die to 1 headshot from a PM 9x18
or is there actually custom set stuff that the game works best with hit power on 1/default?
it's not too easy, but i feel like im getting shrekt less. definitely surviving more shots and being punished less, i am wearing a sunrise suit though.

[north turret]

My game keeps crashing when I do that command sadly

[tidal raft]

What the fuck have you done to your installation?

[graceful cosmos]

I'll try booting up a new game and opening up the fast travels and checking, thanks

[warped ginkgo]

You can also fix it in your current playthrough

[ornate salmon]

yooooo wassup lauto

[warped ginkgo]

Open debug mode then select'unloxck all routes'

Whan a Moderator says it, "Nope"
When a CBT player says it, "Ok"

[north turret]

[pseudo harness]

does Agroprom looks like this on your PDA?

[charred glen]

I'm loner, but when doing missions for duty (pertrenko, etc), I gain rep with clear sky as well, shouldn't it be for loner instead ?
(I've the clearsky armor CS, but the patch is torn off, in case...)
thanks !

[north turret]

Depends on the mission @charred glen

[pseudo harness]

are Loners friendly or allied to Clear Sky?

[north turret]

does it include killing Enemies of CS?

[tidal raft]

That's normal because CS and Duty have strong ties (normally).

[calm temple]

Just normal and scav for now, nothing fancy.

[calm temple]

Gotcha. Guess the only option then will be to cram booze. So it goes in the zone

[pseudo harness]

also: if you did quest like killing enemies of duty which are also hostile to Clear Sky, this might be reason

[north turret]

whenever I launch the game the fps counter is on on the top left how do I disable this?

[tidal raft]

Can be external software hook. Fraps, MSI Afterburner, etc.

[graceful cosmos]

Yea now it does, must've unchecked the zone thing when starting. Was just having an aneurysm with the agroprom stash and ran into it. Had recently updated the files and ran into some UI/Hud issues so thought it was tied into it

[north turret]

Looks like its from the game itself rs_stats does only work when I started the game but it happens whenever launching

also when trying to select unsig as my new faction for a new char the game crashes

[tidal raft]

You've probably done something with the main installation through the debug menu—try unpacking Anomaly again.

[molten tartan]

I'm in the northern outside area of the Chernobyl NPP and a emission is starting. There is no way to seek shelter there. When I try to use the debug menu to stop the emission me and my comps die. Any idea how I get out of this with my comps?

[north turret]

With unpacking anomaly do you mean reinstalling?

[tidal raft]

Yep. Don't remember anymore if it came with an installer or not.

Remember to back up your saves.

[brisk zinc]

Anomaly? No, you need to download it separately

[tidal raft]

Falco, missing the point.

[brisk zinc]

As always

[north turret]

How do I do this exactly?

[tidal raft]

Copy "savedgames" from appdata to somewhere else.

[north turret]

thank you!

[tidal raft]

[late depot]

Is there a way to add other mods to MO2 along with the gamma stuff? I'm trying to add a level transition from garbage to rostok so I dont have to walk all the way, but it's greyed out in MO2 and when i enable it, the transition doesn't show in game

[brisk zinc]

There is a button on the top left that let you install mods

Click on it and choose the zip of the mod

Put the mod at the bottom

Enable it

Done

[late depot]

Cool, I'll get out of this ambush i gotten into and try that, thanks for the help

Also, Duty has started to randomly turn hostile on me for some reason? I have 560 goodwill with them and I didn't even touch one of their guys. I was just repairing stuff in Rostok and i got jumped by the whole faction

Forget that, my brain just did a dumb

Got a looted exosuit > took the patch off > reloaded to before that > forgot to take the patch off

[devout copper]

if add that PDW in pistol slot mod will I break anything?

[north turret]

can I adjust the settings for my game when being launched with gamma or do I have to make changes in anomaly itself?

[brisk zinc]

From GAMMA

Since GAMMA... is Anomaly

GAMMA it's just the name for the mod pack, the game is still Anomaly

[magic reef]

anyway to disable the anomaly pulse in the game? That thing is just one of the stupidest things in anomaly?

[north turret]

I have downloaded it again unzipped it and now the game crashes when trying to launch gamma

Should I just do a complete reinstall?

[tidal raft]

Yes, because now the installation is missing some key configs from GAMMA.

[swift breach]

If I turn on FDDA's animations, will it conflict with Anomaly's own extra animations for wearing backpacks/armor, skinning mutants, eating/drinking etc?

[lapis silo]

Spartan Helmet, ACE Suit, VSS Merc, Ash12, P90 and Korth 6"

Aka "A Joy to Play"

[brisk zinc]

I don't remember know if they're turned on or off by default

I suggest to not touch them since they can bring busy hands

[swift breach]

They're off by default on my install

[brisk zinc]

If you're using backpack animations you will bot get support, it's very bugged and disabled by default

[brisk zinc]

Leave it that way then

You can disable some "fake" animations by pressing + if you want

Basically the ones you were talking about, like wearing armor, backpack, etc.

[swift breach]

that's kinda unfortunate, but good thing I asked. thanks again falco 😄

[brisk zinc]

Grok is looking into it

Unfortunately busy hands comes from animations

Some are okay, playable without any problems

Some are not okay and very buggy, like the backpack animation

The general rule to prevent busy hands is by not spam them

You heal, you wait for the animation to be done, then you drink, for instance

Those "fake" animations should be okay

It's just a suggestion disabling them because it makes the game more "quick"

If you like them you can keep them, just remember the spam thing

[magic reef]

starting items spawning with around 70% condition is that new?

[swift breach]

if I do enable them and get this busy hands glitch, how do I fix it? Reload save?

[brisk zinc]

Apparently yes but Grok will made them 100% soon

#📎to-do

[swift breach]

weird, my gear started at 80%

may be difficulty-related? I'm on medium/scavenger

[brisk zinc]

A quicksave to an older save where you didn't had them resolve the issue, yes
Of course you'll also need to disable the animations if you don't want to get busy hands again

Keep in mind that busy hands is a thing that can always happen

Even with the safest measures

[swift breach]

alright. so I can just keep a savegame handy and test them out. If they're really that much of a headache I'll just turn them back off

[brisk zinc]

But in that case, when you're "safe", a simple quicksave to a previous save solves everything

[brisk zinc]

Yeah you can also do that, for testing and stuff

[swift breach]

thanks for the tips

[brisk zinc]

Just don't use the backpack animation

I like it too

But it's too damned bugged

[solar ivy]

is it? i've been using it for a few hours yesterday and it was fine

[brisk zinc]

Nah I think it's about what you choose, I'm currently doing an easy/easy just to "relax" (the game is always hard) and my starting stuff was like 70%

[brisk zinc]

Yes

Also don't ask for help, you won't get any

Yes we're strict about it

[magic reef]

sorry for asking again but can the pulse be disabled in the game?

[brisk zinc]

If I'd knew what that pulse was I'd help you

What pulse are you talking about?

Let me understand the problem

[magic reef]

the pulse anomaly that appears ranndomly in the skie and rolls a dice if you get killed or not

[brisk zinc]

Oh that Pulse

I didn't know it could kill you

[magic reef]

hehe, its just a stupid thing really. Killed my IM run even when i was under roof

[brisk zinc]

I'm not entirely sure if you can disable anomalies...

Try in settings

MAYBE you can find something in there

But again I'm not sure about it

[magic reef]

there is a mod that disables it it puts a file in the script folder of anomlay but i dont know if it affects gamma mod

[winter drum]

how do I get into the northern region of limansk? i have a quest up there but i cant seem to go beyond the bridge/front outpost

[brisk zinc]

Well it's a mod, install it with MO2, put it at the bottom and check if it conflicts with GAMMA or if you can run the game without any problems

[magic reef]

ok thanks

[brisk zinc]

Hm I guess you can't find the way in?

There should be a hole somewhere in a fence, IIRC

The whole place is locked, there should be like one way in

Maybe it was inside a house

[bleak egret]

Its on the ground floor on the monolith house on the east side. You enter by going up stairs on the west side of the house and drop down a big hole on the east side and head out the door.

[brisk zinc]

Yeah that one

[winter drum]

i dropped into the first floor and the only doorway i see to the east has wooden boards across it

[bleak egret]

thats the west side m8

unless im backwards

[winter drum]

ur right lol, give me a min and ill check the other side

[calm temple]

Question, can I disable the mini map mod to get the old one back? Or atleast change which corner it is in?

[bleak plank]

To update and risk breaking my save or not to update and don't risk?

hmmmm

[bleak egret]

I update like twice a day and have no issues lad

[graceful iron]

updates dont break saves...

[brisk zinc]

If you didn't add anything extra, you can safely update

[bleak egret]

damn

[bleak plank]

The only thing I do is play with the trader overhaul

[brisk zinc]

That's okay, update and enable it again

[bleak plank]

okay prefect 🙂

thanks Falco

[vernal bough]

Is there a fix to FOV alteration after shooting? It happens with all weapons (no scope included).

[ornate salmon]

gotta start a new game since the bizon update?

[quasi junco]

Is there a easy head bob disabled

[brisk zinc]

I don't think so?

That's clearly a Byzon problem tho

@willow hawk

[ornate salmon]

yessir

i didnt have any bizon in my inventory or anything like that to maybe cause some spawning issues

[tidal raft]

Settings menu

[graceful iron]

did you update after the fix?

[ornate salmon]

i updated seconds ago

277 addons (excluding the ones i had from way before)

[bleak plank]

bruh big sad my save isn't working anymore 😭

[quasi junco]

@tidal raft ok thanks I’ll look again

[ornate salmon]

lemme try a new game @brisk zinc

[brisk zinc]

Send the log

[bleak plank]

oooo wait I forgot to reenable trader overhaul

[calm temple]

Also, I been having a weird.. bug? Graphical error? I am unsure what to call it but for some reason every few minutes my screen goes black for a few seconds then pops back. Anyone have any idea what it is?

[bleak plank]

it work 😅 sorry

brain moment still waking up

[faint hornet]

Can anyone tell me where screenshots (F12) are saved?

[graceful iron]

gammaRC3/overwrites/bin

[brisk zinc]

Okay

[faint hornet]

Fantastic! Thanks 🙂

[north turret]

Hi it is not letting me download the mod via the disc link

[ornate salmon]

@brisk zinc new game is fine

[brisk zinc]

Hm okay

I know what I'm not doing

[ornate salmon]

ooooooookay nvm i noticed something very important

[north turret]

"Sorry, you can't view or download this file at this time."

[ornate salmon]

i tried spawning it in using debug mode

as soon as i clicked on it

[brisk zinc]

What

[ornate salmon]

game crashed

💀

[brisk zinc]

I guess Grok messed up something

[ornate salmon]

same error btw

idk if its from me but people here or at least one said that their bizon is working

so maybe i am the one that did something wrong

tho idk what

[faint hornet]

Hmm, ok. Well there are some screenshots in gammaRC3/overwrites/bin, but they aren't mine :/

[ornate salmon]

ok falco i think i concluded something

let me quickly test it

no jumping to conclusions

yet

[tidal raft]

Check appdata, if you imported your user.ltx from vanilla Anomaly.

[rose blade]

will Gamma have any of the cool weapon customization features from desolation? where its kinda like tarkov? is it possible to have the best of both worlds? what i mean is like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSWX1nG7rl0

[tidal raft]

Ctrl+F "Desolation"

[ornate salmon]

ahahahha @brisk zinc i found out the issue

you better report this to grok cuz lemme tell you, its fucking stupid

[brisk zinc]

Yes

[brisk zinc]

Yes

[ornate salmon]

dx10 is legit unplayable

the crash is because of dx10

[brisk zinc]

Oh

[ornate salmon]

i looked at the log and error

its something to do with dx10 and the textures of the bizon

lol

[warped ginkgo]

no

[brisk zinc]

Well then

[ornate salmon]

and i mean, its fucked, the gun just doesnt work (doesnt matter if spawned with debug or looted cuz it crashes) and it also crashes ur saves

thats ONLY on dx10

[rose blade]

ah thanks, sorry for asking again lol.

[faint hornet]

Nothing in appdata either

[ornate salmon]

hopefully grok can fix this

im useful for s o m e t h i n g i guess

[tidal raft]

While in-game, press "PRT SC" and quickly read the target folder at the top of your screen.

[ornate salmon]

but yeah on dx11 now, nothing bad is happening, lemme confirm by spawning it in too

all good now

in my inventory, managed to spawn it in

so its 100% because of dx10

thats

for sure weird

[primal hazel]

is it intended that your faction and allies don’t see you as your disguise? i’m playing merc, and i’m wearing an ecologist disguise and i’m friendly with everyone, except the murder hobo factions of course. why would i ever take this disguise off? am i missing something?

[bleak egret]

Mercs are dicks and you are experiencing happiness for the first time. Also the disguise can be seen through.

[faint hornet]

Mystery solved. I was hitting F12 out of habit. PrintScreen saves to the Gamma/Overwrite/Bin folder. Thanks again!

[vernal bough]

Anyone?

[tidal raft]

Complete Installation.

[quasi junco]

i think i did something wrong how can i get my gamma short cut on desk top

[brisk zinc]

Go inside your GAMMA folder

Find MO2.exe, this should be the name, it's MO2 anyway

Create a shortcut and move it to your desktop

[quasi junco]

thnaks

[thorn ridge]

Issue: trader supply level
I have read how the trader re-stock works in the in-game guide and here on discord too but is it normal that trader's supply level goes back to 1? I do all of his tasks but after I sleep at night the supply level goes back to 1. Any suggestion?

[hollow apex]

do I have to start a new game to get the new Bizon/SR25?

[graceful iron]

no

[charred glen]

Do you guys drink/eat as soon as the icon pops up, or do you wait until it's yellow for instance ?

[graceful iron]

you start losing health as soon as the white icon appears

[thorn ridge]

As soon as icon pops up

[bleak egret]

I wait, since I have an HP regn artifact to ensure maximal food consumption.

[graceful iron]

also, check your inventory UI, you can see the exact level of hunger/thirst/sleepiness

[grave canopy]

best place to sell mutant parts?Å

[swift breach]

parts? scientists

meat? butcher

[graceful iron]

butcher in garbage buys parts and meat for the most money

[quasi junco]

@brisk zinci cant seem to find the mo2.exe in my gamma rc3 file

[charred glen]

Thanks !

Just got a drug making kit (hard/survivalist) should I keep to craft, or give to a medic in my base ?
Thanks guys !

[graceful iron]

you should keep a full set of tools. give the extras to medics and technicians

[brisk zinc]

[quasi junco]

ya i dont have that do i need to do a full reins off gamma

[brisk zinc]

How do you even manage to play GAMMA without that?

[graceful iron]

how did you install gamma without it...

[brisk zinc]

Another good question, yes

[quasi junco]

i have modorg but its not in my gamma folder

[hollow apex]

should I do a complete installation to get the new latest SR25 update? cuz when I hit "only install GAMMA addon", it ends in less than 5 seconds...

[graceful iron]

no, just update data and then install only gamma addons

if a complete install is needed it will be in #📢announcements

[hollow apex]

okay ty

[olive violet]

Can you easily move the entire gamma install folder to a new drive?

[graceful iron]

you need to delete the mods folder inside and then you can move it yes. you will have to do a complete installation in the installer after

and if you want to move the anomaly folder as well you will need to set mo2 paths after moving it

[olive violet]

ah ty

ill leave it where it is then

[north turret]

Do I click yes for mod organizer is not set up to handle nxm links associate it with nxm links?

[graceful iron]

no, click dont ask again

please, read #old-how-to

[willow hawk]

Desolation is not ready... Most likely conflicting with a lot of addons, and the models / parts aren't really of great quality currently. Also, I don't know about the balance. Desolation will come to gamma, but I prefer to wait for something more polished / balanced

[calm temple]

Is there anyone that will buy armor sets? I was given a completely 100% durability low tier armor set from doing a mission and while its nice, its worse than my current one. But no one seems to want to buy it.

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual you cant buy or sell guns and armor

read the manual in your pda

disassemble the outfit for parts

[bleak egret]

Does anyone know if the scavenging skill raises much faster when looting stashes vs corpses? I need to level up my skill quite a bit... for reasons.

[north turret]

Can you mark stashes in game?

[graceful iron]

no. placing items in a stash marks it automatically...

#│📚manual

[graceful iron]

its only when killing/looting stalkers

[north turret]

Sorry I meant name them on the map

[bleak egret]

Thanks!

[graceful iron]

you can place a backpack as a stash and name it anything

[novel dune]

But won't the professor in Yantar pay more for scientific parts?

[graceful iron]

no

[quiet rock]

so i been having CTDs when loading a save, this happened after an addon update (using the installer). From what i've read at the end of the log is something related to the magazines mod? Anyone can illuminate me Also happens with old saves/autosaves

[graceful iron]

you forgot to enable mags

[quiet rock]

could've been deactivated when i updated GAMMA? i should check after i do that then

[brisk zinc]

Yes

[novel dune]

Yes, once you update Gamma it goes to the defaults. And by default, magazines addon is turned off.

Not everything resets, but active addons do

[quiet rock]

right, not the activated default ones

[brisk zinc]

Yes

[quiet rock]

just the ones i activate manually

[novel dune]

yes

[brisk zinc]

Yes, you need to enable them again

[granite tundra]

Excuse me gentlemen what are just the "basics" of gamma ? Because i don't really want to download 50 gigs of stuff if not absolutely necessary

[brisk zinc]

I'd say look in #❗welcome, #│📚manual is good for knowing a little bit of the mechanics

[novel dune]

crafting, survival, agony

[quiet rock]

dismantling guns and armor

:)

[granite tundra]

yes i have the manual mod list open. up to which mod is the well "core" of the mod is my question. Like in the case of vanilla anomaly.

[brisk zinc]

"G.A.M.M.A. aims at providing a balanced survival, scavenging, cooking, crafting and repairing focused experience with a long progression and smooth gameplay, which one could consider the ultimate immersive solo survival looter shooter."

This is what you want to know

[novel dune]

there are 277 active addons + many more deactivated by default

[granite tundra]

Ok let me rephrase it

[quiet rock]

what you need to know is that GAMMA has it's own economy, own (modified) repair/craft system and own trader's presets that changes the game a lot

[brisk zinc]

I mean this is the mod pack, no weapons/no armors, you start like a hobo and you continue like a hobo until you find better gear that you'll need to maintain yourself + you can become rich if you want or spend everything on stuff

The end

[novel dune]

gamma is a hobo simulator

but you will love it

[granite tundra]

which mod from #1 to #277 are "essential" to run

[novel dune]

LOL

277 of them?

[brisk zinc]

277 is default number of the mods enabled that are required for GAMMA

[granite tundra]

Thank you

that was my question

[novel dune]

it is plug and play, just install it and start

[brisk zinc]

Inside your mod list, you ALSO have OTHER mods that are DISABLED by default
If you want to enable those optional mods:

1. It depends because X mod can overwrite Y mod and makes Z mod unusable
2. No you can't enable all of them
3. Something can get stuck with you until you start a new game without it, like MagsRedux

[full orbit]

im unsure if a bug or im missing a hotkey, my PU Scope is a 3.5x but when i scope in its definitly a 1x or maybe a .75x

[novel dune]

mags redux are chad

early game when you have one mag and you are surrounded by 4-5 enemies ❤️

getting second mag feels like christmas

[quiet rock]

then you have so much mags that you don't know what to do with them

since you can't sell them

[novel dune]

later on, yeah

yup

or dismantle them

[swift breach]

game was very generous to me then, because my initial loadout came with 2 spare mags + 1 included in the gun

[novel dune]

ah, I know what my issue was ... I enabled magazines later on, after a few hours of gameplay

so I only got one (the one in my pistol)

if you have magazines enabled from the start, you get more

[plush pewter]

what are the files to save to keep all your keybinds again after an update?

Aslan maybe

Dead City, Mercenaries, he runs a lottery

[young reef]

Damn, hostile to those.

[thorn ridge]

I play as Merc, it's like that

[brisk zinc]

Disguise as a merc or someone friendly with them

[young reef]

Oh shit yeah those exist

Thanks 😄

[dire garnet]

Does anyone know why custom loading screen would become so dark when played through GAMMA ?

[north turret]

probably because Anomaly puts it's own filter over it, so like gamma, lighting, tonemap and stuff

tonemap less likely, but

ye

[ornate salmon]

wait

the exo frame gets repaired by exo repair kit

right?

[dire garnet]

And I guess there's no way around this ? Because it basically makes any picture dark and ugly no matter how it was at the beginning

[tidal raft]

Does it matter?

[dire garnet]

Yup

I mean, the mistake in on my part, I should have seen that coming, but hours of works went out the window

[north turret]

kind of, you could make the original alot brighter

see if it changes it

[dire garnet]

It did, in some ways, but it still looks like a youtube 360p

[north turret]

Personally it doesn't look 'bad', because on every monitor it's going to be probably alot brighter

has something to it

idk

[dire garnet]

I'm going to show another one to pinpoint the difference with a much brighter one

[ornate salmon]

nvm

[dire garnet]

The base image, and how it looks when I increase luminosity by 50%

Better, but still not quite there

[north turret]

well, let's put this into perspective... these are load screens, which means they won't be very long on the screen and from what i've seen and from what you're showing me right now this looks more then passable, so i wouldn't really say all the work was for nothing

[dire garnet]

Yeah, that's right, but it's quite unsatisfaying, at this point, vanilla looks 10x better xD

[north turret]

i don't even think you can change the way anomaly displays it in-game

[dire garnet]

Most pictures have to be 1024x512 actually

[north turret]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/922555488665743391/980913786263322664/AnomalyDX11AVX_2022-05-30_21-14-25.png?width=980&height=551

this for example, if i saw it i'd be like nice and load into the game

like it's not really that deep, even if it is to you

[dire garnet]

I'll have to keep tweaking until I get it right

Maybe I'm too harsh on my work, I'll still try to improve it, 50% luminosity was one step in the right direction

Once it's done, I can put the vanilla-ish filters

Thank you for the assistance still

Not suspicious at all

[thorn ridge]

A while ago it happened to me too and I was smart enough to click on it (different link but same thing). Had to make new account

[north turret]

[ornate salmon]

what patches can you put in for the lottery?

[north turret]

All of them afaik

even Mono/Sin

even if he says he doesn't accept them

Aslan is a liar...

[swift breach]

would you trust a lottery made by a liar?

[dire garnet]

Absolutely

[ornate salmon]

do you need a specific amount for it tho

[north turret]

15 for one

[ornate salmon]

kk right

gonna stack up more on these then

i heard one guy got the pistol with just 30 of those

💀

[hoary veldt]

Well, 30 patches are usually the higher tier of rewards

15 just puts you in a lower tier of rewards IIRC

[ornate salmon]

then im definitely going for 30

30 radiation patches

gotta go through cordon anyway to get to great swamps

[hoary veldt]

I recall if you put in a 30, you can usually get 3x Artifacts + an AAC to put it in

And I believe that Sin/Monolith have better rewards if you turn their patches in

[ornate salmon]

bruh?

also

not 15 tho

[north turret]

i think grok changed it to where you get an aac that has an artefact inside

instead of seperate

[hoary veldt]

I thought he changed it to just be in a LLMC?

[ornate salmon]

i just want the pistol man

[hoary veldt]

Since before you would accumulate rads since they were out of container and you had 3 of them on you

[ornate salmon]

sounds cool

[hoary veldt]

It's just a fancy 1911 to me, but so is the Korth so...

Good luck

[ornate salmon]

is the korth the 3 round burst one?

[hoary veldt]

The Korth has a full auto upgrade but has 7 rounds

The Voight Infinity has roughly 13 rounds I think last time I had it? That has the 3 round burst

[ornate salmon]

ooo

[ornate salmon]

does that come WITH

or

upgrade?

[hoary veldt]

T3 upgrade

[ornate salmon]

damn

[hoary veldt]

Honestly, you can do without it

[ornate salmon]

might as well use the lebedev for that unless its something special about the korth

[hoary veldt]

Hydrashock is a slapper already

[ornate salmon]

can hold 24 rounds in a mag

and has an autofire upgrade

but when ill get 30 radiation patches, ill see what i get

guys how do I set the core 0 off permanently?

I tried the tutorial in #╭📖faq but it's still on when I check in task manager

[dire garnet]

You probably have to uncheck your starting loadouts addon

[magic reef]

Well. I mean in the way that your character is reacting. So you dont have to look at the hud

[granite tundra]

That doesn't give me issues

Just the UI. I don't mind

[dire garnet]

If anything, you can still do a reinstall I suppose, because something is definitely missing from the UI

[granite tundra]

🤷‍♂️

[bleak egret]

The HUD... thats literally on your screen? Its not like you need to open the inventory to check. Theres also a RAD bar that fills up as you get rads. Also your character coughs and takes damage. Also geiger crackling noises.

[granite tundra]

I am not re installing this late. But thanks anyways

[bleak egret]

Also your screen gets fuzzy.

[quick olive]

i can give spirit the vodka for the berill suit but wont get it from him/containers also empty. is this intended, since traders wont sell armor?

where can i get those?

I suppose it only means they're "upgrades" compared to the regular mags

for example I have a 10-round SVD mag and a 20-round SVD mag. The 20-round has the "up" label

[hoary veldt]

Yeah, they're upgrades

Those are 45 round mags

[small fossil]

oh i get it. it says its a fast loading mag, maybe thats the upgrade

so it only have 30 bullets

So i should use the 60 bullets mag over the 40 bullets upgrade mag, since it is the only one that is not fast loading, right?

[swift breach]

That depends on what you prefer

higher capacity or faster reloads?

[slow topaz]

It works now
First time I opened task manager and it’s naturally off

[small fossil]

sorry, i think i wasn't clear. The two black mags on the top are 30 bullets fast mags, and the tan mag is a 40 mag, but not a fast mag. Can i swap that 40 mag for the 60 mag, since apparently the only difference is the bullet count, or is there some hidden stat that might affect my gun, like stability, since its a bulkier mag?

[cinder valve]

Can I enable the GAMMA Alife fixes in the "disabled" section?

[swift breach]

oh, sorry about that. I don't know, then. Maybe give them both a try

logically, a high capacity mag would be slower to load since it's heavier, bulkier and so on but I have no idea if that was implemented in gameplay

[brisk zinc]

No.

Keep everything in Disabled disabled

They're disabled for a reason

I mean the divider is called disabled for a reason as well, a little bit of logic, come on...

[small fossil]

yeah, i don't think either. Even the weight doesn't make sense. The bigger mag is lighter than the other

[cinder valve]

https://tenor.com/view/austin-powers-dangerously-gif-20939086

But why implemented in the first place then? Check-mate

[small fossil]

thanks for the help 🙂

[hoary veldt]

It was implemented because it was supposed to fix things and now it doesn't

You don't use a broken fuse once you find out it's shorting your circuit board

[brisk zinc]

They were enabled before, because they worked, before

[hoary veldt]

[brisk zinc]

Now they're disabled because Grok needs to fix them

[swift breach]

"sufficiently-advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"
Don't remember to whom that quote is attributed to lol

[brisk zinc]

Hence the "Disabled" divider

And yes I told him to just remove the damn thing because it's useless and people will ask about it

He "can't"

So I need to deal with this question everytime

Lucky me

[delicate wharf]

the problem with removing them from the modlist is that it will leave them orphaned in mo2. Removing them from the list helps new installs but makes it confusing for updates

[brisk zinc]

I'm a scientist myself and he's saying correct things

[north turret]

Even with warfare alife on I can't seem to be able to enable story and warfare together, is this a bug or a feature?

[mortal flame]

gamma is not made for warfare, it's just how it is

somewhere is mod that allow you to enable both

[north turret]

figured that'd be warfare alife

[tidal raft]

#old-how-to

[dire garnet]

I beg to differ #╟📸screenshots message Although I agree it's not optimal

[north turret]

I did read to avoid it, I just wanna do it anyways

[slow topaz]

where I see my crash log?

[graceful iron]

[slow topaz]

oka

happened right after I got killed by a bandit in cordon and tried to quickload

[brisk zinc]

You can

Don't expect support for it or your game in general as long as you play with Warfare

You get a crash? Your problem

[north turret]

that fair

I just wanna know how

[slow topaz]

how about mine? I was playing vanilla gamma, if that sentence even makes sense , but uh game was running with some stutters even with core 0 off

[brisk zinc]

I don't really see a problem in there

"Parametro incorretto" is not really an error (yes I barely understand spanish, very similar to italian )

[slow topaz]

maybe related my cpu being able to cook an egg every time I boot gamma? Because for some reason every Acer nitro 5 has overheating issues so maybe this can cause problems

[slow topaz]

that’s Portuguese
and you added an extra t there

somrrey

[brisk zinc]

Because it's in italian, literally the same thing

[slow topaz]

well all Latin origin so plausible

Anyways
I think I’ve lost all hope in my potato laptop

[brisk zinc]

Is your computer a potato anyway?

I wouldn't suggest to play with that

Okay it's a potato

I don't recommend it because you're still playing with DX11

[slow topaz]

i5, gtx 1650, 8gb ram

yeah potato

[brisk zinc]

For your potato, DX10 would be better

[slow topaz]

[brisk zinc]

If even then you can't manage to run it, DX8 + #old-framerate-optimisation

Or even DX10 + #old-framerate-optimisation

• #╭📖faq because there is something in there as well regarding NVGs if you want to keep them

[slow topaz]

oka
I was expecting to have to sacrifice graphics but it’s fine
thx anyways

[hidden bloom]

looks like one of those crashes that xray just does from time to time tbh

unless it happens regularly i wouldnt worry

[slow topaz]

yeah it’s been some time I’ve got my last crash
I haven’t been playing these days, just today I decided to

[slow topaz]

so xray being xray
bit less worried now xD

[brisk zinc]

Yes it could be that as well

For your perfomance, follow what I said, it's up to you at the end, you can still play in DX11 if you want

[hidden bloom]

I mean it could be more, but seeing as how I get comparable crashes once or twice a day I wouldn't worry unless it keeps happening in certain situations repeatedly. XRay is janky after all.

[vague moss]

Anytime I try to use Nightvision googles using the "N" keybinding, It doesn't work. I even changed the key binding, still didn't work. Is this a problem or a feature of the mod pack?

[hidden bloom]

try holding the key for a short time

[vague moss]

lmao im retarded

[brisk zinc]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[hidden bloom]

dw it happened to me too l0l

[halcyon surge]

hey guys, i was running debug mode earlier and now i have this massive textwall on the left side of my screen i cant get rid of, anyone know how to fix this?

[fallow cliff]

Does Gamma come with any kind of texture improvement addonds/mods or should i also install the graphical edition of EXPEDITION?

[hidden bloom]

open debug menu again, and disable "Debug HUD" in it

[halcyon surge]

it worked, thank you!!

[grave canopy]

how to get back my companions

i teleporett to another map

without setting them to follow me

so now theirs hp bar is grey

and i cant find them anywhere

[brisk zinc]

Try to go to another map

If they don't show up, you'll need to remember where they was

[swift breach]

I'm not sure if this is also true for GAMMA, but in regular Anomaly you could use the PDA to check their location in other maps. I think it was in the lower part of the Contacts tab.

[brisk zinc]

You can see them on the map, yes

For the other thing you said, I don't know

[stuck wave]

Hello! Can anyone help me with modorganizer? I'm trying to install boomsticks, but it says "The content of <anomaly> does not look valid"

[north turret]

Is enhanced recoil effects worth putting on?

[hoary veldt]

I personally wouldn't, but your mileage may vary

[graceful iron]

also GBO already has its own recoil effects

[north turret]

Alright I will keep that off for now thank you

Are there any settings that should always be included in a playthrough in your guys opinion?

[novel dune]

Boomsticks are already part of Gamma?

[regal veldt]

Yeah

[stuck wave]

I know, i wanted to try anomaly with a few addons on just to see how it was, but just can't seem to install it

[pale silo]

does giving booze to mangun in the rostok base do anything?

[regal veldt]

Yeah he lets u use the bench for free iirc

Well for 5 minutes instead of money

[novel dune]

Well this is gamma support, not anomaly support - Gamma already has BaS addon as its default

did you install gamma ?

[graceful iron]

#🔨modded-gamma-support or go ask for help on the anomaly server

[stuck wave]

Yea sorry i just didn't know where to seek help, yea i did play gamma

[graceful iron]

these channels are for gamma support only

[stuck wave]

Thank you

[twilit bloom]

What’s the button to see your skills again? i.e endurance etc?

[warped ginkgo]

K

[twilit bloom]

Tyty

[swift breach]

on that same topic, what's the max level for each skill?

I hope it doesn't go all the way to 51 like tarkov

[bleak egret]

30

[tidal raft]

30, up from 15—with half the progression rate for each level.

[bleak egret]

Here's some questions. What dictates an enemies chance to have a certain armor? Is it just a flat %? Is it ranked based too? If im farming, lets say the Mercenary ACE and Nosorog suits, should I let them be for a few days and let them "stock up"? Is that a thing?

[tidal raft]

See MCM > Outfits Drop. Straight up percentiles.

[bleak egret]

Ah thanks, that is useful.

[exotic lichen]

What are default human/mutant multipliers for difficulties? i had started on max hard economy and low gameplay dif, and cordon was litteraly swarmed with dudes, even converging from nearby locations, i checked out and found 1 for stalkers and 0.25 for mutans, odd for me.

[tidal raft]

See ZCP in MCM. It overwrites the population of Settings.

[exotic lichen]

Thanks, will chek it tomorrow.

[magic cargo]

So I'm trying out some of the scopes, I've been using the Acog 3.5x and a canted laser device and I want to try some new things. I've swapped to a normal weapon to test some scopes but I'm encountering some problems.
I can't seem to zoom the 'Elcan SpecterDR Sight', only swap between 1x and ironsight. I also can zoom in the 'Leupold Mark 8 CQBSS 1.1-8x24' but it won't zoom out again.
Is there a separate keybind for this or am I missing something

[graceful iron]

the Elcan does not have variable zoom. as for the mark8 it works on some guns and does not work on others, try v(under barrel GL keybind) or try the scroll wheel

[magic cargo]

oh that sucks, the description made me think it works like a real elcan

[twilit bloom]

how do you swap between multiple scopes on one gun? thanks in advance

[magic cargo]

the grenade launcher keybind, V by default i think

[icy needle]

do i copy the [RecentDirectories] part at the very bottom too, or just the part above that

[brisk zinc]

"now copy this code that you can find below, you'll need to paste it LITERALLY ABOVE [recentDirectories]"

Seems okay to me

[icy needle]

thank you

[tall charm]

Do "damage resist meds" actually do anything

back in RC1 they just hurt the player and i dont believe they actually did anything.

Not sure how it interacts with GBOOBs

[tidal raft]

Morphine and Metamizole is fantastic nowadays.

See my usage here:
#╓☢stalker-chat message
(Not to be taken out of context.)

[opal haven]

I suppose nobody ever upgrade night vision on binoculars, because it's literally breaks them, making unusable at daytime, since damn night vision can't be turned off

[graceful iron]

same for the high contrast upgrade, dont use them

[opal haven]

yeah...

[tall charm]

no need for a binoc anyway once you find any scope

just deadweight at that point

[nocturne halo]

Do defense stats have a cap or can I keep stacking? UI shows red when I try to add more ballastic Def when it's already full for example

[tall charm]

they have diminishing results the higher you go if my memory serves me right

at a certain point it doesnt matter, a couple ap bullets will kill you regardless

[tall charm]

yo lets fuckin go, I remember being so dissapointed when they did nothing back then

glad it got worked

[graceful iron]

from what i understand grok has put a limit on ballistic res but dont use the UI to figure it out since its not too accurate. just stack a good suit and a good gasmask and then an artefact or ballistic plate

[tall charm]

Better to not think to hard on it and just slap all the best shit you can find on yourself

[nocturne halo]

did he cap other stats? Can I check stats beyond what the UI is telling me?

[graceful iron]

grok only reworked ballistic, rupture and impact i think

not sure how to check the stats

[shut slate]

Is there a way to turn off 3d scopes/PIP? I'm having frame issues using the PK-A scope on an SKS.

[jagged lance]

just dont use it

you can tell which ones are pip by their icomns

pip have the orange name in the icon

[shut slate]

okay, thats what i kinda thought with the different coloring on the scope name, thank you so much

[jagged lance]

np bro

sucks having to find a 2d scope though

[shut slate]

it looks so nice but i drop to like 35 fps and its kinda bothersome

[jagged lance]

yeah its not just you

[plush ginkgo]

Does disassembly guarantee you'll get the weapon parts you need or is it better to "field-strip" first?

[graceful iron]

you can just disassemble weapons and get all parts and sometimes scrap as well so no need to fieldstrip first
