[brisk zinc]

You have GAMMA inside Anomaly

That's already a problem

[frank lichen]

inside?

oh tha just mod file

i put the mod i find on there

not the anomaly game

[brisk zinc]

That won't work

You need a clean Anomaly folder

Anomaly in english

I know english is hard but it's the only way if you want to play GAMMA

[frank lichen]

yeah this is oringinal vanila anomaly file

[brisk zinc]

Okay, you need to use this Anomaly
Not "Anomaly China Taiwan Edition"

[graceful iron]

btw thats windows 7

[brisk zinc]

Your GAMMA folder need to be outside the Anomaly folder

You need to have two folders:

Anomaly
GAMMA

[brisk zinc]

Grab the guide for it, please

[frank lichen]

Anomaly China Taiwan Edition it just the file i put the mod in it just the storad not the game folder

[graceful iron]

#│🔧troubleshooting message #│🔧troubleshooting you need powershell 5 to install gamma

[brisk zinc]

I understand that

But you can't use it for GAMMA

GAMMA require a clean folder of vanilla Anomaly

[frank lichen]

it is vanilla Anomaly

pure eglish not have any changed

[brisk zinc]

Okay, perfect

Use that folder

Follow #old-how-to and install GAMMA

[frank lichen]

github?

[graceful iron]

the #old-how-to channel has the full instructions to installing gamma

[stoic moth]

Do I need to reinstall gamma to get the updated AUGment pack?

[graceful iron]

no, see #📢announcements

[olive haven]

For updating I only select only install gamma addons right?

[brisk zinc]

#╭📖faq First message

[graceful iron]

you just need to either install the addon manually or do a complete install with US mirrors or the 126 EU mirror in the installer

[frank lichen]

Be sure to right click and "Launch as Admin" on G.A.M.M.A. Installer.exe and click “1. Allow Powershell scripts.” but i right click it it say gamma stop working

[stoic moth]

I see the bushes and ammo parts on hover were updated but not augmented

[brisk zinc]

Did you follow this?

[teal cave]

hey, for some reason the traders wont sell me guns. i've been stuck using a sawed off TOZ-34 long enough for me to aquire 150,000 Rubles. is this intentional? I am playing loner and sidrovich is at supply level 3.

[graceful iron]

read the manual in your pda

traders dont buy or sell guns or outfits

[tight garnet]

How do i disable campfire saves? i already disabled the mod that forces it now i just crash

[delicate wharf]

don't disable the mod just turn it off in mcm

if you really want to disable the mod you need to disable a patch for it as well

[graceful iron]

its also mentioned in #╭📖faq

[tight garnet]

i just want to be able to save normally

my bad

[delicate wharf]

yea turn if off in mcm

I do that

[graceful iron]

disabling it in the mcm is fine as well

[hazy ridge]

Wait

Is it intentional to have blank drug recipe

?

Solid in freedom base sold me drug recipe #1 and #2

[graceful iron]

you dont need recipes, all crafting and cooking recipes are unlocked from the start

see the manual in your pda

[hazy ridge]

oh rofl

why he selling it then

[graceful iron]

just dont buy them

[hazy ridge]

Yep

Time to reload

[vagrant falcon]

wait how do i remove the parts from the gun? do i need the repair kit?

[hoary veldt]

Right click

Field strip

You can't remove the barrel though, that's a repair kit thing

[hazy ridge]

Barrel you either replace it in the crafting menu or right click > maintain part if you have the repair kit

[brisk zinc]

Vanilla feature, I guess

Grok made our life easy by directly giving us all the recipes, making crafting more efficient, you can basically craft a bunch of stuff as soon as you get one basic toolkit

[ivory palm]

I'm having a bunch of NPCs spawn on top of me when leaving X-16

Anybody have an idea what might be causing this?

[hoary veldt]

Probably a bounty squad

[ivory palm]

like spawn on my position

[hoary veldt]

Yup, sounds like bounty squads

[hazy ridge]

🪄

[ivory palm]

how to make them spawn not on my position

[graceful iron]

you can try tweaking it in the mcm, bounty squads overhaul i think the addon is called

[ivory palm]

Ok I will check that

[jagged lance]

alternatively fast travel away from inside x16

[stoic moth]

Is there a way to turn off the yawn the and the weapon inspection idle?

[graceful iron]

you will have to find the yawn in the voiced actor files, as for the weapon inspection you can reinstall grok's doom weapon inspection and choose what you want or disable the addon completely

[stoic moth]

I did disable it and it did stop the inspect when I first equipt a weapon but not when my character idles

[graceful iron]

it could be from another addon then but i have no idea which one

the actual animations come from blindside's reanimation and rebalance so maybe its that addon

[tawdry ruin]

does anyone know how to change the color of the dots in the text body health hud?

[gloomy rose]

Hey everyone. Just a short question: I like to make my personal changes to the mods each time a update comes out (because maybe I like the new values more), but will my changes to 21:9 screen monitors for BAS (1 mod at the end I created like it was said in #╭📖faq) be deleted when I make a update? Or will they stay there?

[graceful iron]

when installing only gamma addons the changes should stay, but if you want to complete install you will have to backup the addon before installing

[rugged cargo]

is it normal that radiation areas can suddenly appear anywhere? got whole merc camp in army warehouse radiated and its pretty frustrating

[graceful iron]

dynamic radiation patches spawn when you start the run, but they can be in annoying spots

[rugged cargo]

can I disable it?

[graceful iron]

you can easily counter them by just using a smoke as for disabling them i think they are tied to dynamic anomalies overhaul and some gamma addons as well, not sure if those can be disabled without issues but you can disable dynamic anomalies overhaul

[rugged cargo]

right, looks like cigarets are pretty good in this modpack, they got better radiation heal than in EFP I think

[jagged lance]

depends on the cigarette

[graceful iron]

and they have a 10second animation only now

[jagged lance]

some can do like 30m/s and some are less than 10m/s

[graceful iron]

but they last a little longer

[paper sable]

i didn't see it mentioned in manual so because i never bothered with artifacts my question is as follows : do they degrade over time after empowering them?

[graceful iron]

only junk (perk based) artefacts degrade

and only while equipped

[paper sable]

i see,cuz i want to start an artifact based run and wasn't 100% sure if it's worth it

thanks a lot

[plush tendon]

is psy-block supposed to stop me commiting suicide in psy-fields?

because i pop the pills walk into the area and still proceed to instantly kill myself

[graceful iron]

nope, just supposed to increase already existing psy resistance from your helmet

[plush tendon]

oh damn and im guessing the psy helmet doesn't help for that?

[graceful iron]

nope

[plush tendon]

duly noted need a helmet

[graceful iron]

helmets and some outfits have psy resistance, thats what you need for surviving controllers and psy fields

[plush tendon]

oki doki will acquire tinfoil helmet and dominate controllers and psi fields

[severe shadow]

About #old-framerate-optimisation : are those steps something everyone is supposed to do? Or just on bad performing PCs?

[graceful iron]

if you are having random stutters you can try the core 0 affinity, if its fps drops near anomalies or near gunshots try disabling cvfx, but if you are not experiencing bad fps or stutters then you can ignore them (but you probably should limit your fps either way since it keeps hardware from heating up)

as for low end pcs you need to follow the steps from 1

[severe shadow]

Thanks

[obtuse orbit]

Can you switch the scope on the Specter DR from 4x to 1x?

[tranquil idol]

just got gamma and when i load into a game, its all dark? how do i fix it

[graceful iron]

v #│💻keybinds-in-gamma or the under barrel GL keybind

[graceful iron]

see #╭📖faq #╭📖faq message

[obtuse orbit]

It switches to the iron sight on top it sounds like there should be a 1x zoom

[graceful iron]

the 1x zoom is the ironsights

[tranquil idol]

its not that dark, i can see things but its very dark

[graceful iron]

can you screenshot it?

[obtuse orbit]

That sucks I guess I'll just keep hotkey swapping between the acog & red dot even though it's not very realistic

[next rune]

Can the desolation modpack be used with gamma?

[graceful iron]

please dont even think about it

no

[next rune]

So it can only be used with vanilla anomaly I guess.

[tranquil idol]

yeah here

[graceful iron]

the second fix in #╭📖faq should work for that, but still try both

[tranquil idol]

ok, thank you bro

[graceful iron]

grok has said that if desolation becomes polished enough there could be plans to add it to gamma, but for now probably no

[rugged cargo]

got quest I need to pick up some delivery, I am on the spot but there is no delivery, how is this quest suppose to work?

[obtuse orbit]

its in a stash

[graceful iron]

what does the quest exactly say? it could be a stash

[rugged cargo]

Skinflint has a delivery needs to be picked up

[graceful iron]

yes its a stash, look around but it should be exactly on the spot on your map

[tranquil idol]

neither worked, still the same

[graceful iron]

could it just be foggy weather? do you have debug mode enabled to check whats the current weather ?

[rugged cargo]

the spot is next to the Asian

[tranquil idol]

i got debug, lemme check

[obtuse orbit]

The only stash I know of in the merc base is the one left of dushman on top of the boxes

Its probably there, it's in a weird spot

[rugged cargo]

no its not there

[tranquil idol]

its was foggy, but when its changed to clear or something, i get this

[graceful iron]

that definitely does not look right, even the cfg command didnt change anything ?

[tranquil idol]

nope, it didnt change anything sadly

[rugged cargo]

well the quest is broken I suppose, damn

[graceful iron]

can you screenshot where the marker is on the map ?

[rugged cargo]

never mind, its on the roof 😄 I didn't know there is a ladder to the roof 😄

[graceful iron]

did the command run or did it completely fail ?

[tranquil idol]

im not sure, i typed it in and and i couldnt see a difference

[graceful iron]

make sure it was correct, it should say that something changed if you look in the console

[tranquil idol]

oh yeah, it says it successfully loaded, but thats really it

[graceful iron]

how many addons are active? did you disable any?

[tranquil idol]

no, i left it as it is, are they all supposed to be on?

some were disabled

[graceful iron]

no, it should be 288 addons active by default

[tranquil idol]

yeah it says that

288 in MO2

[graceful iron]

you deleted the shader cache folder from anomaly/appdata manually ? i dont know what else could be causing this and the new addons dont seem to affect weather or reshade

you didnt change any shader settings either ?

[tranquil idol]

yeah i did it manually, and no shader settings got changed, i left it as it was

hmm, imma delete shader cache one more time, then imma reinstall everything

[graceful iron]

wait, which DX are you using btw?

[tranquil idol]

dx11

[graceful iron]

also you can go to anomaly/bin and try launching DX11 through there, close and then launch gamma and see if that makes a difference (do this after deleting shader cache and trying again)

[tranquil idol]

ok will try, thanks

[rugged cargo]

even small radiation is killing me and there are radiation at the spots cant be evaded, any way how to disable this?

[slow topaz]

ZCP has an option for dynamic radiation anomalies if that can help

also a gas mask helps a shit ton with that

[rugged cargo]

all moneay throwing for cigarets is not fun

I have gas mask

not helping

[tranquil idol]

didnt work, now its pitch black but imma delete cache and then reinstall if it dont work

[rugged cargo]

maybe I need better gas mask, but I need to safe some money first

thats impossible

[slow topaz]

from my experience with the Soviet gp5 it can tank a lot of radiation

[willow hawk]

Use rad protectants. Or eat Bloodsucker meat green tier

[rugged cargo]

I am at the beginning, I dont have much

[obtuse orbit]

I was fine in the southern zones with the starter gas mask

Just haul ass as soon as you see the radiation start going up

It's always in pockets

[willow hawk]

Then avoid radiation areas

[rugged cargo]

radiation in merc camp cannot be avoided

[willow hawk]

The gasmask you start with should be fine in the Areas connected to your main faction base

[rugged cargo]

in army warehouses

and its pretty important route

I dont think I can go to yantar

[obtuse orbit]

It will move eventually

[willow hawk]

If you go to dead city with your starting loner gasmask, you need rad protectants

And starting as Merc is hard. Merc is like the 2nd hardest faction to play with and you constantly need rad protectants.

But still it's doable. Got basic and advanced kit after 48h in my Merc run in hard survivalist

[obtuse orbit]

If you started as merc go do missions for the bandits, they have good ones

[graceful iron]

you can go to yantar, there is a new transition to the south west of dead city thats outside the psy emissions

[obtuse orbit]

Found a random monolith guy in red forest with 12 duty patches lol

Damn he's just like me

#╓☢stalker-chat

[ornate salmon]

why k98 not showing up in starting loadouts when using maid's hd icons?

[sour seal]

what type of weapons can i put in my melee and vision slot?

i only found out recently that i can also put my pistol in the melee slot

so is there any other weapon types i can put there? or is it size based

[somber junco]

Anyone have suggested settings graphics wise? Idk what I should set them to for best quality while still having good performance (and no stutter too).

I discovered the core 0 affinity today so I'll do that, but what settings in game do people use with high end hardware?

I have 9700k, 3090 and 32GB RAM and run at 2560x1440p.

[hoary veldt]

Melee weapons can go in there too, but the P90 and MP7 are the two things you want to consider putting in there

[sour seal]

gotcha, thanks!

[tired copper]

Probably a dumb question but I have been getting stash coordinates from missions but cannot see the stash icons on the map. is this by design or am I missing something?

[rough drum]

Does ballistic plates increase BR at the moment ?

[graceful iron]

make sure stashes are enabled on your pda

[graceful iron]

not yet implemented #📎to-do

[tired copper]

yep, it is enabled I am sure. Let me check.

[graceful iron]

stash locations can be anywhere in the zone btw, so sometimes they will be really far from where you completed the mission or bought the location

[tired copper]

I have just checked the entire map and cant see any stash icons. Is it the default stash icon I am looking for? Just in case the mod has changed the stah icons and I am not seeing them.

[tribal loom]

is duty expansion worth to try out or is it not playable due to its bugs?

[tired copper]

Okay so the icon has changed and its now a tiny little white icon that is ridiculously hard to see

[inland delta]

just wanted to know how to fix the eft mag mod because i have the mags but thay dont work it just taks my amo from my stack?

[charred glen]

I killed an ecologist by accident when raiding machine yard, will this make all their faction hostile against me ?

[sudden egret]

Just one duty kill shouldn't make the whole faction hostile

[zealous hawk]

anyone know what is best locations for expert tools

[charred glen]

I hope so...^^ otherwise, i'd need to redo all the assault....
Thanks👌

hey guys, when i'm fighting with other factions somehow my guns lock up and i can't shoot or reload. anyone knows how to fix it?

It's not happening when i'm shooting mutants btw

[small breach]

Hay so I saw on announcements about some new stuff for updating, but being distracted I forgot to change the download mirror as suggested.

Should I just redo the installation?

[graceful iron]

all download mirrors should be fine at the moment

so no need to redo the installation

[graceful iron]

pressing r multiple times can probably cause a soft lock, try to not spam it

[small breach]

Arite just needed to make sure

[charred glen]

which do you guys prefer to run : P99 or P220 ?

[fresh merlin]

weapon parts can only be cleaned if they are above 60 condition?

that means any parts below 60 condition are to be trashed?

[ornate salmon]

i trash every part below 50

[small breach]

Was able to restore most of the parts with a weapon kit to 99% on my end

But yea I just sell low quality parts off because of that yea

[fresh merlin]

to 99%, but from how much?

is there hope for parts below 60?

[small breach]

50 odd plus

Like anything below that I sell

[fresh merlin]

I thought you could only clean parts above 60 condition?

[small breach]

Oh no wait It came up with replaced not clean

Derp

[charred glen]

I went to storm the South military checkpoint in cordon, and for some reason, Wolf came with me and died...

[fresh merlin]

is there a guide NPC for fast travel in Cordon?

[icy fable]

Hello everyone. Sorry for a noob question, I am new to Stalker mods. I just installed Gamma and started playing it. I dont like that all trees look dead and have no leaves. How can I change that? Also the game seems VERY dark. Is it intended and I should increase the brightnes or something is wrong?

Thanks!

[fresh merlin]

I changed the gamma in basic light setting to make shadow more visible

[icy fable]

ok, thanks, and what about trees?

[graceful iron]

see the #📢announcements about the new texture addons, you can disable them in mo2 without issues

[graceful iron]

how dark is it? if everything looks like a dark shadow try the fix in #╭📖faq for black screen

[icy fable]

I go to Visual in MO2 and I dont see anything about tree textures. In announcements It's not stated what I should disable

[ivory zodiac]

is bullet hit power factor changes something with that gamma damage overhaul? bcuz it dosent feel like it does

[graceful iron]

hit power factor is completely overwritten by addons in gamma

[graceful iron]

use the search filter in mo2

[icy fable]

okay, thanks, I'll try to figure out

[charred glen]

in #🖇old-mods-posting search for "guide", there's an add on which adds additionnal guides through the zone, and there's one in cordon near sidorovitch

[rugged cargo]

I am losing health for no reason, what is that?

no hunger, no thirst, no radiation

[graceful iron]

rads/bleeding/being near anomalies/thirst/hunger/sprinting while a leg is damaged

any of that ?

[rugged cargo]

the leg I think

how to repair leg?

any splint or something?

[graceful iron]

there is a full manual in your pda and in #│📚manual read one of them

there is a section about healing

[rugged cargo]

ok what is the cheapest way? 😄

[graceful iron]

sleeping and medics

[cloud zephyr]

I have an Aks that has 3 parts below 50%. What kits can repair gun parts below 50%?

[graceful iron]

on the field you will need a medkit and then a yadulin (example)

[graceful iron]

you need a repair kit for the AK, right click on the gun and see details

you can right click on the gun and maintain, you can replace any part but it will cost you a charge from the repair kit

[cloud zephyr]

Sadly i cannot find any replacements...

[graceful iron]

you dont need replacements if you have a repair kit

#╭📖faq APART guide for repairing guns and armor

[ivory zodiac]

what to do with low condition artefacts? i got jellyfish from that quest with fanatic and i cant really sell it to anybody and its condition is really low

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual artefacts. you need an artefact melter to empower or fuse artefacts but they are more powerful and much more expensive as well

[ivory zodiac]

okay thanks but can i sell them with that low condition to anybody or do i need to empower them first

[charred glen]

I've got this quest "lost signal" with the RF receiver, but there's no location indication, does it means I've got to search every map with it ^^ ?

[azure jewel]

Ok so following last night, I've done a fresh re-install of everything in anomaly, reinstalled the game, and reinstalled all of the mods in GAMMA, but the game doesn't crash, it doesn't open.

[graceful iron]

yes, vanilla quest

[azure jewel]

Checking logs, it only records the session when I went into the game in full vanilla.

[graceful iron]

nope, the lowest you can sell is 30%

[ivory zodiac]

okay, thanks man

[graceful iron]

no log after launching gamma?

[azure jewel]

The only flag is on Agressor reshade, which says 'no valid game data'

[azure jewel]

No log, it just refuses to open

[graceful iron]

aggressor reshade is not really important, you have 288 active addons ?

[azure jewel]

288 yes

[charred glen]

huh, that's rough haha ^^

[graceful iron]

the log that should be in anomaly/appdata/logs ?

[azure jewel]

It's an extremely long log, and there's no errors

[ornate salmon]

scroll down to the bottom

[azure jewel]

But, it was a few minutes ago when I launched it in vanilla, trying to open it with GAMMA means it just doesn't open at all

Bottom of the logs.

[ornate salmon]

you opened the .txt file

right?

[azure jewel]

Yes this is the text file

[graceful iron]

are the mo2 paths set correctly ? can you screenshot the mo2 window ?

[graceful iron]

try exiting this program, it can cause issues with mo2

[azure jewel]

uninstalling it right now give me a few

[graceful iron]

idk if uninstalling it is needed, just closing it is probably enough

[azure jewel]

Uninstalled it, still doesnt work

[graceful iron]

still no log ?

[azure jewel]

yeah, same problem as last time, no log.

[graceful iron]

delete shaders_cache ?

[azure jewel]

where is it located?

[graceful iron]

anomaly/appdata

[azure jewel]

Still doesnt run

I can record what's happening actually, give me a second

[graceful iron]

try launching mo2 as admin

Same problem

[graceful iron]

you will lose freedom goodwill if you kill them, its your choice

[charred glen]

what would you advice ?
I accepted from ukraine with love, it's in army warehouse..

[graceful iron]

as a loner you have many quests you can take that dont require you to kill friendly/neutral factions

[tidal raft]

You can tell the difference from the Start icons.

[graceful iron]

just keep asking important and random npcs for quests and see which ones you can complete

[fallow cliff]

the game keeps popping that reshade has an update should we update that or is the settings fine tuned for this version of it?

[graceful iron]

i looked at them after you asked which windows, i just never paid attention to them

[north turret]

Since some time I have fps in the low 30s, mid 20s. My specs are GTX 970, I5 4590 and 12GB RAM. Is this cause of the ram? I also since some time sometimes get the "Memory could not be read" crash, is it all cause of the lack of ram? Earlier in the same playthrough fps was fine, no issues whatsoever.

[ivory zodiac]

why sometimes my USE key (F) not working? i cant loot any corpses and stashes until i reload a save, same with companion commands wheel, anybody else got this problem?

[graceful iron]

#old-framerate-optimisation dont enable any type of overlay, they can cause issues with mo2 and some fps drops. you can press home and in the settings click show fps

[north turret]

That's what I use most of the time. I enabled msi afterburner's overlay just to see CPU/GPU/RAM usage

Thanks. It's just been downloading for 6 hours and the green bar isnt even half way full.

[past elk]

yeah, first part was slow here too.

[brisk zinc]

Is your internet connection slow by any chance?

I'm playing war thunder while downloading without ping issues, but it's around 4.5 Mbps.

Yes, just save and reload using the console. #│🔧troubleshooting

@inner ivy take a screenshot of your installer

Should the launcher be unresponsive? (can't move the windows or click on anything)

[brisk zinc]

You're stuck on "instructions solving"

Check #│🔧troubleshooting

If the launcher is unresponsive, as in, if you click it, it goes "white", it's stuck for good, but this doesn't seem the case

BaS is one of the biggest mod in the pack as well

Where are you installing GAMMA? SSD or HD?

If you're doing it on a hard drive, it's normal, it takes time

Fixed it. I'm installing on an HDD.

[brisk zinc]

Okay, perfect

It will take some time, it's a big mod pack

On SSD it's much more faster

[inner ivy]

I would guess so, but I don't think I have enough space on there.

How big is the game after installing GAMMA?

[brisk zinc]

This is my GAMMA folder, I have some extra mods but nothing big

This is Anomaly

[inner ivy]

Can I play anomaly while installing GAMMA?

[brisk zinc]

To date, you must have at least 55 GB free, to be sure

[brisk zinc]

I don't really know, it should be okay but again, I don't know

[ornate salmon]

it might be ok because mo2 uses a virtual folder separate from your actual anomaly folder

which is why you always launch the game via mo2

that virtual folder is where all the mods actually are

if you launch the normal .exe it wont do shit

but then again i havent tried it nor do i know what happens if u try it

[jagged flame]

Jesus, I have done the dumb and not been doing the update gamma step since I started playing gamma. Thanks.

[brisk zinc]

Generally speaking, "Complete Install" isn't required everyday

You only do it if Grok says "do it" in #📢announcements

You can just use the second option

But like I said in #╭📖faq, it's really up to you

[jagged flame]

No no, like I was only using update gamma add on and not updating the definitions using the middle option in the installer first.

[brisk zinc]

Oh

[jagged flame]

Yup, been doing the big dumb.

[fallow cliff]

does anyone know why a bandit can sometimes just spawn right next to me and start shooting at me?

it has happened few times now

[bleak egret]

you 100% sure he spawned? sometimes they been creeping up on ya

[fallow cliff]

yeah i entered garbage couple of times now and this fucker just suddenly appears and 1 shots me thankfully got some backup and this time they reacted

I was pretty close to the zone transfer thou so might have come from there but he did it from different direction everytime

will see if it keeps happening i doubt its the bounty addon either as i used it before and it worked fine

[steep pollen]

Hello guys, i cannot find this stash, do you know how to reach it ? thanks

[north turret]

can you send a picture of what it looks like when you go in there?

I also have a similar stash that I can't find and its located near trees at garbage

[fallow cliff]

if its the one next to the zone to Cordon its in the bushes next to the 2 trees close to that marker

its like a kettle

[rotund swift]

Hey, I am playing as Duty and I got a quest "Patrol Local Area" from the Military in Agroprom (marked yellow). So am I supposed to kill everyone here which is hostile to Military? I mean this would be tricky since its Loners, Ecologist and Clear Sky in multiple squads hanging around here.

[steep pollen]

i think this stash doenst exist ?

[north turret]

can people be stashes???!!

I just killed this duty guy and the stash icon went away (been trying to find the stash for over 30 minutes)

[sterile cedar]

finally go into jupiter last night, since i came from red forest i decided to go to oasis straight away and get the heart of the oasis, i reach the house with the secret passage to the underground tunnels and i notice theres no armed zombies there, then i remember ive never really seen armed zombies during my playthrough, so im guessing they were removed, if so why? im curious

[ancient ruin]

1. If my companion is enemys with a faction but im not, will they attack my companion
2. Does anyone have a mod that replaces the bullet casing cause the current model is ugly

[azure jewel]

1. I've encountered freedom while escorting a duty hostage, as long as you set them to not fire, I think you should be ok
2. No idea kek

[ancient ruin]

[azure jewel]

Ok so push comes to shove, GAMMA isn't working, should I just uninstall everything related to gamma and reinstall?

[novel dune]

windows 11 or 10 ?

[warped ginkgo]

10

[novel dune]

I was asking @azure jewel he has win 10?

[azure jewel]

11

[novel dune]

well, that could be the issue

[azure jewel]

I can't roll it back since im doing some work on it, plus i've been on 11 for a while and gamma worked on it.

[novel dune]

but complete gamma reinstall on fresh anomaly is always helpful if something dies

[azure jewel]

when i updated gamma suddenly it ceased.

im just gonna delete and reinstall gamma rc3

i already got a fresh anomaly download too

[novel dune]

try that out

and new game

if the issue will persist, call bill gates

to fix his shit

[granite ledge]

i7 6900k/RTX 3060 and only getting 40-50 fps? I’ve turned off grass shadows/lowered render distance/dropped settings. No change

[warped ginkgo]

disable the reshade, lower stalker/mutant population and lower grass settings

[severe shadow]

Some tip for grass settings? What's the best balance for an FPS boost while keeping some grass density?

[pulsar void]

Hello, i just got a notification about a token what's that about?

[granite ledge]

@warped ginkgo I’ve done all that except disable reshade, I didn’t think that would make a huge difference as I use it on other games but I’ll try that

[warped ginkgo]

probably the daddy save token

if you activate it it would instant save your game and then close it

no idea if it still closes your game anymore, at least in the first versions it close if you needed to save and leave the game for a emergency

it's meant to be used if you play with campfire saves

[warped ginkgo]

yea it will probably eat 10-20 fps maybe

[pulsar void]

thanks

[granite ledge]

@warped ginkgo thanks, gotcha. Sorry if this has been covered before but to disable it do I do that through the mod organizer or through reshade itself?

[warped ginkgo]

you can either delete the reshade folder inside bin, or just boot up the game, open the reshade menu and untick the activated options in the reshade

[tall charm]

Are the trash pits in garbage still bugged to not be radioactive?

[granite ledge]

@warped ginkgo okay I see, appreciate it. And to disable core 0 I’d just right click on anomaly.exe/see details/set affinity/and untick core 0?

[warped ginkgo]

no idea about the core 0 sorry, i never disabled it

[granite ledge]

That’s okay. Thanks for the help!

[brisk zinc]

We have a guide for that

#╭📖faq

[serene cedar]

Did you get the performance to increase? My laptop has that issue too. Checking the 'Prefetch Sounds' box in the launcher helps out, but you may still have a few stutters.

[granite ledge]

@brisk zinc I did it through task manager and it is running better now. Thx!

[brisk zinc]

That is a temporary solution but it works as well

[vagrant falcon]

is the agressor reshade the only mod that affects the grass textures?

[charred glen]

Do know if this quest is worth it ? (I guess no.. ^ )

[vagrant falcon]

omg this crappy grass

[warped ginkgo]

it doesn't affect grass

[vagrant falcon]

then what does

this isnt the default anomaly grass

[warped ginkgo]

affects ground texture

[vagrant falcon]

which mod affects grass texture

[warped ginkgo]

idk

gardener of the zone

or some autumn shit

i don't remember names

[sudden egret]

so what exactly happens if the player gets hit with ammo that doesn't penetrate? Does it reduce player BR / damage the armor?

and you have to repair to get it back?

[novel dune]

if you want summer zone, disable those 3

[cedar star]

Is the maintain part tooltip on the universal weapon cleaning kit wrong? I can't seem to maintain a part on any gun, it only works if I use the repair kit

[vagrant falcon]

thanks

[azure jewel]

god damnit my wifi corrupted my gamma instillation

alright its fine if I just restart the installation again right

[novel dune]

let us say that your wi-fi died at downloading addon number 35

go to gamma/downloads

delete 35.rar

delete everything from /mods

and start complete install again

from 1 to 34 won't be downloaded again, just extracted

[azure jewel]

i have 3rd world wifi

so now I gotta

wait for another like 2 hours

[novel dune]

and after that downloads will continue

[azure jewel]

i'm just gonna restart everything, i have no idea which addons it stopped at.

[novel dune]

pay attention to the installer next time when your internet is DCed

you will see exactly where the download is at

at what is the archive's name

[sour seal]

where do titan plates usually come from?

[azure jewel]

alright so do I delete both the download thing and the mod folder?

[novel dune]

baby titans

[sour seal]

but where do baby titans come from?

[novel dune]

parent titans

[sour seal]

i havent had the bird and the bees talk yet

[sudden egret]

these armors. they also appear randomly in stashes or in dead stalker inventory

[sour seal]

so to be clear, its not from baby titans?

[sudden egret]

well, it could be. I haven't seen one yet

[sour seal]

lol ill keep looking i guess

but thanks for the info

[novel dune]

delete the content INSIDE /downloads and /mod, not the folders. and start complete install again. when your internet dies again, check the installer messages and do what I posted earlier

[sour seal]

just super rare i guess since its only from specific heavy armors

[azure jewel]

yup, did that, time to take another nap

[sudden egret]

Yeah. I think Grok is going to change the plate recipes because the ingredients are too rare. It's in #📎to-do

[ancient ruin]

does it tell you if you fail invicitus?

[tacit magnet]

where can i get the 3.3 exe?

nvm found it

[soft leaf]

you won't know untill you complete the agme

there's a mod that has a script that checks if invictus is still running

[ancient ruin]

does it work with gamma

[tidal raft]

Pretty sure the PDA just tells you your current Invictus-state under Guide.

[ancient ruin]

it says ironman state but not Invictus

[tidal raft]

Oh yeah, maybe that's what it displayed.

[radiant marlin]

Does weapon damage depends on ammo caliber only? Or weapon stats
affect dmg too? And does GBOOBS system use vanilla parameters in damage formula? @willow hawk

[willow hawk]

Depends on caliber and gun damage. Vanilla parameters ? Like bullet hit power ?

[radiant marlin]

Yeah, is it used?
k_disp = 0.66
k_impulse = 0.58
k_ap = 0.55
k_air_resistance = 0.25

I want to tweak 5.56 to be slightly better then 5.45 in terms of AP power

[willow hawk]

It already is

0.27 vs 0.25

[radiant marlin]

Oh, nice

So vanilla vars doesnt matter?

[stoic moth]

Is there any way to increase the sound distance of footsteps?

[obtuse osprey]

Anyone know where you can get the Ghillie suit and Redline leather jacket?

[stoic moth]

I got a red line as a quest reward at some point

[stable stag]

Ghillie from high ranking monolith. Red line from stashes

[obtuse osprey]

Ah alright thanks!
Redline sounds really good with that 30% extra movement speed.
Ghillie just for the aesthetics unless it actually improves stealth?

[willow hawk]

Look for the correct file

[stable stag]

The extra concealment was removed if I remember

[fallow cliff]

is it normal for stalker names to come out as factionname_number_factionname_number

alot of the chatter in the PDA and even my latest kill quest has just the faction name for the stalker and number

[bleak egret]

I had a similar issue. Make sure the ANUS mod is turned on in mod organizer. No seriously.

[fallow cliff]

i dont suppose you remember which tab it is?

[azure jewel]

holy shit it worked

[bleak egret]

Newly added addons tab

[fallow cliff]

ah yeah it wasent turned on for some reason

cheers

[fiery plover]

Has someone changed the carry weight higher than 50 with this modpack? Any proeblems?

[bleak egret]

Yeah it will default to off when you update, at least for now. Make sure to turn it back on after an update.

[bleak egret]

Carry weight levels up with the Strength skill

[fallow cliff]

i notice the monster unstucker is still off by default i assume it still has issues?

[fiery plover]

thats nice, finaly some level stuff 🙂

[bleak egret]

TBH ive turned that mod on and noticed no difference in monsters being stuck. It doesnt seem to work, at least with GAMMA.

[fallow cliff]

to level the carry weight make sure to carry alot of stuff so your carry weight is yellow

to get exp for that skill

[bleak egret]

You can level it by meleeing people too. I always make sure to knife zombies and dogs.

[fallow cliff]

is the bizon replacer off for a reason or just another one that defaults to off?

[bleak egret]

I know they recently upgraded the bizon to be like THE smg to use early game, big 60 round clip etc. I dont know what the mod does.

[fallow cliff]

kk prolly wont use it in game anyways got 3 guns to fix atm at the start of the game but money is short

[bleak egret]

money? what does money have to do with gun repairs lol

[radiant marlin]

Thank you! missed this files due to inattention. Last, question, what parameter is responsible for displaying damage in the game? And if it is in w_* files, does it really affect dmg? I want to make addon that adds upgrade option to weapon to switch caliber, i dont want to break existing GBOOB system @willow hawk

[ancient ruin]

Could i add this to my game, im kinda salty rn cause i think i may of lost my invicitus run trying to make a mod
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/invictus-protect-rc1819

[willow hawk]

weapon damage * base ammo k_hit

[fallow cliff]

need to buy dem repair kits 🤷‍♂️

[radiant marlin]

Thx

[bleak egret]

o son, you craft them. save big roubles

[fallow cliff]

havent actually even checked the material amounts for those, in base anomaly the amounts are insane to craft just one thing but will check it in here for sure 👍

[bleak egret]

well, once you craft, youll quickly get the achiement where less mats are required to craft. that and save every damn thing you find that is at least 50 quality armor part, and 60 for weapons. anything with a lil hammer icon is for crafting, anything with a gear is disassemble able.

[inner ivy]

I just installed and updated, but the game crashes before even opening. I looked at the crash fixing guide and it says to download the files that aren't the same size as in the picture. The files that I have are newer versions of the mods, and I guess that's the reason they aren't the same size. Should I still download them manually?

[bleak egret]

#old-only-installer-support

[median lagoon]

hello, what are the addons that manage the companions mechanics? I have seen that they can use the weapons I'll put in their inventory and increase their carry weight with backpack. Is there more? Does any armour in their inventory affect anything? Their outfit also change with time thought I don't know how.

[agile dune]

What's the fast travel toggler that was just added in the to-do list going to be about?

[bitter pumice]

Hey, is there a way to throw the glowstick, cant seem to find an option for it in keybindings

[dawn quarry]

Hey, how do I use night vision? My keybind is set to N for night vision but it isn't working

[tidal raft]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[tidal raft]

Bind it to a new key in the MCM menu.

[plush wharf]

Hold the key down

[bitter pumice]

Ty!

[tidal raft]

It's better to teach a man how to fish, y'know.

[plush wharf]

And now he can fish. Fancy that

You didn't understand the simile, but that's okay.

[plush wharf]

My poor tiny brain.

[median lagoon]

is there a firing mode for some weapons? what's the key?

[tidal raft]

You can find it in Settings > Input > Keybinds.

[glacial atlas]

Hi, am I doing something wrong ? Recently I got psy-helmet from the professor. So i went to the Agroprom to retreive a notebook for ecologists inside the nerve wracker anomaly. I have the helmet in my inventory, but every time i enter the anomaly, my character still goes bananas and shoots himself

Does psy helmet work only in certain areas?

[tidal raft]

In areas north of Army Warehouse.

[rough stirrup]

is it common to find neutral monolith members? just chatted up a monolith guy as a clear sky member in cordon. this is a "bug or feature" type of question ig

[ivory zodiac]

can i somehow use laser point and flashlight thats attached to AKS-74u Tactical?

[brisk zinc]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

Yes you can

Laser, yes

Flashlight, let me know if you find a way

[tidal raft]

It's a bug. Saving and reloading should re-apply their proper behaviour AI.

[brisk zinc]

I think it's a bug, I talked to a bandit some time ago, I was a Loner, talked to him as well
You can even make them companions

[agile dune]

Anyway to make the difficulty change permanent every time I change it reverts to the old difficulty whenever I load a save or goto a new area.

Can anyone tell me what's the default mutants population factor in ZCP?

I've messed with it during my first run, but now in my new game it feels like it's just devoid of mutants

[brisk zinc]

I'm in game right now

Where can I see it?

[grave olive]

in MCM

it's under ZCP

[grave olive]

0.6? Damn. Is there a cooldown timer or something before they spawn then? Like it take a few days or something?

Because I barely saw any. In fact the only ones I saw was the one I needed to hunt for a task

Been dismantling pretty much all the armor I can get my hands on but haven't gotten any of the kevlar k129 plates which are required for making the first armor inserts. Have pretty much all the mats to upgrade them to imp carbon but not the k129's, where are they from?

i'll try it

Any idea on how to get the player_english sounds to play? All of my callouts are in Russian. Or do those only take effect when playing as a merc? (currently a loner)

I will add I also recorded my own voice lines in OGG format and threw those in

[hoary veldt]

It only takes effect when you’re a merc or UNISG

[shrewd crater]

How does one get ahold of companions?

[bleak egret]

Befriend them and their faction and ask em.

[gusty pasture]

thanks will work my way into becoming a merc

[azure jewel]

For some reason, when I try to make a new game as the mercs and spawn in, the game crashes, I'm gonna try another faction, but checking logs, it mentions something about campfire saves

[bleak egret]

Renable YACS. If you dont like YACS, disable it in MCM on main menu.

[azure jewel]

alright thankyou

[stoic moth]

Does using the upgrade kit on the K98 keep the stats and caliber upgrade from the base gun?

Or will it revert back to base caliber?

[bleak egret]

Dunno. Save and try it out.

[molten siren]

Is this normal?

[hoary veldt]

Eh, looks fine to me

[bleak egret]

No, looks pbad. Try using a screenshot next time lmao

[molten siren]

lmao, should I be worried about the 2 red X's? I've already had a crash

[azure jewel]

Hey my game's doing that weird 'slow scroll' thing, save and load?

[bleak egret]

Yeah. Try not to alt-tab unless you have paused the game.

[azure jewel]

Noted

Thanks

[bleak egret]

Nah, I have X's in the same place. The crash is something else.

[ember vortex]

am I stupid or is there no disassemble all? I think I developed RSI after manually disassembling like 50 guns after brain scorcher mission

[graceful cosmos]

Really confused as to how to get a hold of ballistic plates, haven't been able to find the k129 kevlar plates from disassembling and all the traders are selling everything but the plates:
https://i.gyazo.com/fb47f5eb6c576b46cde66e73d3923eaf.png

[bleak egret]

So, Grok is still kinda balancing out the plate availability/costs to craft from what i heard. If you want plates, got fight a buncha guys with solid armor to disassemble. Head north.

[bleak egret]

There was one back in ... RC1 i think? It was removed due to some bogus bug i think. Also, you really dont need to disassemble like every gun you find. Armors yes, guns no.

[jagged lance]

you craft them

[vagrant merlin]

Is there some trick to the artefact condition mechanic / artefact melter? I've experimented in debug for ages but I just can't seem to figure out the trick to it. Any artefact repaired basically 80% of the time loses that condition immediately out of the crafting menu, or it gets reset to <30% the moment it's put in any Container.

[bleak egret]

Ive been able to use it with no issue without debug. You got any weird mods?

[vagrant merlin]

Nah, just standard Gamma, with some MCM setting changes to ZCU and DAO, but that's about all I've changed.

[bleak egret]

Well, sounds like you should hit up #old-bugs

[elfin moth]

where do I find GAMMA modlist again

[brisk zinc]

#❗welcome

[elfin moth]

ah cheers

[plush pewter]

there wouldn't happen to be a mod to build a campfire + one of those big chests

It's totally unnecessary and redundant, but I'm just dreaming of squatting in an apt in dead city

[azure jewel]

Is it safe to disable the new graphic mods (that changes the color and stuff) in an ongoing save?

[bleak egret]

Pretty sure the campfire mod is built in already. As for a chest... I dont think so? You can already create a stash using any backpack.

[ornate maple]

How can I restore the "vanilla" addon selection in MO?

[bleak egret]

Yes. Grok says you can turn it off in #📢announcements

[plush pewter]

do you need resources to build a campfire? I might've missed it in the crafting section

[azure jewel]

alright pog

[azure jewel]

I think you need firewood or something

[hoary veldt]

[slow fox]

How do yall get into the yupiter ventilation complex?

[bleak egret]

yupiter

[hoary veldt]

Buy from firewood from a trader and find a good surface then use the firewood

[bleak egret]

[hoary veldt]

The one for the Oasis?

It's on the side, towards the east of the map

[slow fox]

Yes

[hoary veldt]

Go to the top of the plant, face east, run forward

You'll hit a white-ish building that sticks out

Go in and thats how you get to the entrance

[slow fox]

Ok. I was trying to climb the actual location but there is an invisible wall

[swift breach]

[astral wigeon]

How long does it take for the traders to restock?

[hoary veldt]

12 hours, or basically 1 in game I think

[brisk zinc]

Big chest, I don't know
But GAMMA have a portable campfire mod

[brisk zinc]

#📢announcements to see what you need to do
The answer is yes

[brisk zinc]

Open the installer with admin rights

Update GAMMA data
Click the option under "Complete GAMMA installation"

Or, if you didn't update yet recently

Update GAMMA Data
Complete GAMMA installation

Both bring your mod list to default

The difference is that "Complete" update everything

The second one only update what you can find in #📢development and bring your mod list to default as well

The "Update GAMMA data" isn't needed to bring back everything to default, it's just to be sure that you are up-to-date with everything everytime

[plush tendon]

is there i way to make it ask to travel like it used to?

[brisk zinc]

"Make it ask"?

[plush tendon]

one sec this one is easy to just show

one more sec SOC crapped out again

[brisk zinc]

Maybe I get it

You mean the transition from one map to another?

[plush tendon]

yeah

[brisk zinc]

You want the confirmation back then

[plush tendon]

travel between areas

[brisk zinc]

Okay

Yes I get it now

I can't check on my computer right now

It's a mod

Open your MO2

[plush tendon]

ITS NOT A DEFAULT OPTION

WHAT

[brisk zinc]

Nope, it's a mod

@graceful iron can you help me here?

[graceful iron]

bruh

[plush tendon]

is it an anomaly thing to remove confirmation?

[brisk zinc]

It's a mod

No

[graceful iron]

no

pogggies ty

cool idea but STALKER just aint made for that

each one of them does something, i really have no idea how visual and texture addons work so you will have to either go with all of them or none of them or try tweaking them yourself (adding or removing)

the default is all enabled

[wheat jetty]

ok

[north turret]

Will any trader buy artifacts? Tried every scientist bunker and they just won't buy any artifacts I can find

[graceful iron]

artefacts need to be in 30% condition or higher to be sold

you can empower (repair) them using an artefact melter

#│📚manual or read the manual in your pda in-game

[desert robin]

@willow hawk Haru Skills got updated, i think the GAMMA Skills rebalance haru_skills script is outdated, is this the case? Just checking as i have an addon/tweak i made to that and was wondering as i was going to update my tweak. Cheers

[clear finch]

I've noticed some guns from Anomaly like the WW2 German weapons, M24 and most of the melee weapons are still the same?

These weapons were ported from Misery and their quality looks rather questionable compared to the rest of the modpack.

Is there going to be any sort of model improvement / change for them?

[soft mirage]

is the mod for the immersive back pack open not in this mod pack? also is GAMMA supposed to have infinite rain?

[mystic finch]

I just updated and noticed the bizon replacer has been unchecked is there a reason why?

[hoary veldt]

You can turn it on in the MCM FDDA settings

[graceful iron]

the backpack animation? its in but you have to enable it in mcm

[hoary veldt]

And no, it shouldn't have to

[graceful iron]

at your own risk

[hoary veldt]

come on cat type faster

[graceful iron]

ok

[soft mirage]

thank you! much appreciated!

[graceful iron]

apparently caused some issues

[mystic finch]

okay I will leave it unchecked thanks

[sullen valve]

When I click “complete gamma installation” it doesn’t download my current Addons twice right?

[hoary veldt]

No, it'll just check for anything you have already in the downloads folder and skips once them once it verifies it's there

If it finds anything new it'll download it and save it into the downloads folder for later updates

[sullen valve]

ok ty

[brisk zinc]

What the other two already said + keep in mind that we won't help you if you'll have problems, that thing is very bugged

[molten siren]

Is there a 3rd person view? If so, what is the keybind?

[brisk zinc]

Yes

Check in settings, keybinds

I think you need to choose what button to use

[molten siren]

😄

[mystic finch]

yeah unbound by default

[soft mirage]

what do I do about this infinite rain? or is that just GAMMA?

[graceful iron]

save/load

do you have any extra addons ?

rain never stays for more than a few in-game hours

or you are just unlucky with weathers

[soft mirage]

i have nothing extra. Just what's in GAMMA. Damn its been way longer than that maybe 10 hours total now. May just be my luck haha

[celest junco]

Do artefacts still spawn in anomalies after emissions? Or is it all controlled by the gamma system which makes them spawn near anomalies when you enter a map?

[graceful iron]

the gamma system makes artefacts have a chance of spawning after a set amount of time

same as emissions but timed instead

but they will still have a chance to spawn after emissions (vanilla system)

[maiden nexus]

Campfires, and possibly some anomalies, are causing my game to stutter really badly when they are in view, even though my framerates are high. Anyone know what's going on?

[long path]

are you using in-game vsync? that caused campfire stutter for me. I enabled it in nvidia CP and it went away

[maiden nexus]

I think v-sync not enabled in game

[graceful iron]

disable cvfx ?

#old-framerate-optimisation

[maiden nexus]

Hmm I'll give that a shot

I like the other effects and they run just fine. I don't understand why campfires would be specifically giving that problem

[graceful iron]

try limiting your fps and see what part of the hardware is being heavily used when looking at campfires i guess

[maiden nexus]

It looks like enabling vsync in the control and panel in the game seems to have solved it

[sly sinew]

Is there a mod/way to add in the Surv12 and/or CMS kits to heal my limbs, like in the EFP modpack?

[graceful iron]

you would have to add the mod with those medical items, but its probably going to conflict and possibly cause issues with some of the medical item addons and fixes in gamma

if you need help with extra addons over the base gamma pack go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

[tired copper]

Aren't Antibiotics supposed to heal my limbs completely? I just took one and it didnt heal any limb damage

[left plume]

I have a dumb question to ask

[graceful iron]

anabiotics ?you are supposed to black out for a certain amount of time(usually surviving an emission or blowout even out of cover) and heal all limbs

[hoary veldt]

It's post heal only

If you didn't first aid yourself first you won't heal

[graceful iron]

wait it doesnt function like sleeping ?

[hoary veldt]

I don't think so?

All it says is "Post heals whole body completely"

[graceful iron]

because the properties say it fully post heals

i would assume it works like sleeping

[hoary veldt]

But Rebirth says First Aids whole body completely and post heals as well

So I think you need to first aid yourself first

[left plume]

How do I equip this suppressor to this pistol? It's both .45 ACP, but do I need to put a threaded adapter to the pistol?

[tired copper]

Damn, that sucks

[hoary veldt]

I think you need the non russian version of the 1911

[left plume]

Well damn

[graceful iron]

guns have the attachments they can take in their properties

and you can right click and open details to see all attachments

[left plume]

I see none for this gun unfortunately :/

So I guess it gets no attachments

[graceful iron]

yes

[willow hawk]

perhaps an upgrade

[left plume]

You can upgrade the weapon to allow attachments?

I'm assuming that's what those kits are

[willow hawk]

depends on the upgrade tree, but yes

[north turret]

yea theres upgrade kits you can find i mostly just sold them for a quick buck

[left plume]

I see

That makes sense

Thanks for the info eveyone

[remote stream]

Is this normal?

not sure if it's a bug or a feature

[graceful iron]

in the details of the gun you can also see the whole upgrade tree

[graceful iron]

its a 3k rads spot, i think its not intended

[left plume]

Yeah I saw that as well. I didn't see anything about how the barrel is or how it can attach a suppressor. But like mentioned before it could be upgrade kits too

[graceful iron]

for that gun specifically there are no attachments or kits

[left plume]

I mean it is the starter pistol so I figured lol

I do apologize I'm pretty new to the WPO mod. Kinda new to stalker anomaly in general honestly

I'm sure I'll get the hang of it

[graceful iron]

[remote stream]

Weird, i only installed this mod moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/beefs-npcs-die-in-anomalies-v10

And it doesn't change anything at all, no overwrite or anything

[left plume]

Why? Because fuck them that's why. Had me rollllling lolol

[willow hawk]

be sure to update

[remote stream]

i updated yesterday

[willow hawk]

Are you using other footsteps addon ?

[remote stream]

Not at all, i only installed "Beef's npc die in anomalies"

everything else is as it came with the pack

[cloud zephyr]

At the cordon loner base, shouldn't there be a trader and the loner's leader or something like that?

Why aren't they there, theres only a mechanic.

[remote stream]

Is it nighttime?

that trader goes to sleep at night

[jagged lance]

yeah the trader sleeps in the back

just on the floor lol

[cloud zephyr]

No it's around 17:00

[graceful iron]

there are 2 traders in cordon, one of them is in the bunker near rookie village (loner starting point) and the other is loris at the northern farm

[remote stream]

Check if he didn't get into a fight and died nearby

[graceful iron]

the first one is sidorovich and he is the faction leader

[remote stream]

he means Loris

[cloud zephyr]

(I know about sidorovich cause I've played shadow of Chernobyl.)

[jagged lance]

go into freecam and check the back

[graceful iron]

did you happen to change population settings or enable any extra stalkers/zombies in the mcm for zcp?

[cloud zephyr]

And what happens if he died?

[graceful iron]

he cant die, nothing targets him

[cloud zephyr]

Maybe ...

[graceful iron]

only the player can kill him

[cloud zephyr]

What should the number be?

[graceful iron]

what did you change? population numbers should be fine as long as you dont enable zombies or zombified stalkers

[cloud zephyr]

I only changed the number of stalkers from 1 to 0.75

I loaded a previous save at 13:00 and he isn't there.

[graceful iron]

in the game settings ?

dont change game population settings, if you want to tweak them go to the mcm for zcp

change that back and tweak zcp if you want and then save/load

[cloud zephyr]

Should I revert the population number to 1?

[graceful iron]

yes, just in-case, i have no idea if it actually has any effect

[cloud zephyr]

Whait, my bad.

It's already at one

I only changed the mutants to 0.75

[graceful iron]

all population settings are available in the mod config menu, just please dont enable zombies or zombified, they can break other spawns

[cloud zephyr]

Okay on ZCP

It's 0.75 and 0.6

[graceful iron]

those are gamma defaults

[cloud zephyr]

Everything seems normal

I can't find his body around

It's only 13:44

And for some reason

He isn't there

[graceful iron]

try going to another area and then going back, if that doesnt work i guess you can try spawning him with debug mode

#🔨base-gamma-support message getting his ID is the only issue

[cloud zephyr]

Should I load a previous save from another area?

[graceful iron]

you can try i guess

[slow fox]

How do yall farm artefacts throughout the game? Like whats the routine? Ive been a potato and played without them most of the time. Thank

[willow hawk]

Well, each map has their spot, gotta start knowing these spots and get a sense of the timing

[cloud zephyr]

I went to another area and then I returned... Nothing happened.

I loaded another sabe

Save

Nothing happened

[willow hawk]

Easy way, walk with you detector out as often as possible @slow fox

[graceful iron]

you can try spawning him using the method mentioned here, but you still need his ID

[willow hawk]

you'll start learning the common spots and get a sense of which map drops the best artefacts

but if you want good artefacts fast, check the red forest

[alpine moon]

Can I tweak how dark storms and rains are? It's ridiculously dark when it's raining. It's worse than moving in the middle of a night.

[willow hawk]

Just fixed that today

[graceful iron]

it literally just got changed

[willow hawk]

update data > only install gamma addons

[alpine moon]

Thanks!

[willow hawk]

if you didn't udpate since a long time, perform an update data > complete install

@alpine moon

[slow fox]

Grok what faction you play as?

[willow hawk]

Merc

[slow fox]

How you get the Ace armour then?

[willow hawk]

I don't

I get an hybrid suit or an exo

[graceful iron]

you can try getting his ID by starting a new save and going to that spot, aim your cam at him, open debug menu and click get info. after that you will take the ID and paste it into the spawn command

the ACE is just one of the good suits, there are many other suits that are as good if not better

[cloud zephyr]

Also

Doesn't that base also have an "important character" like a leader or something?

[alpine moon]

My save is crashing after the update 😦

[graceful iron]

post the log, also as grok already said if you havent updated in a while you need a complete install for some of the changes

[alpine moon]

I think I updated pretty recently but I'll try to do complete installation first

[graceful iron]

#📢announcements see when the changes that needed a complete install were released

[cloud zephyr]

I downloaded the game this Thursday, should I also do an update?

[graceful iron]

no need to do that, your problem is probably not tied to updates

you can update if you want i guess

if you want to update make sure to do a complete install, there was an update to some addons that needs a complete install after the 2nd of june

#💽how-to-update run the installer as admin, update gamma data and then complete gamma install

[cloud zephyr]

Thanks

[alpine moon]

Under which tab is a GAMMA unjam reload?

Got it

[charred glen]

Do you think a skat 9 is good upgrade to beril, or should I wait for something better ?

[plush pewter]

aggressor was off by default when I updated, is it best to keep it off now?

[charred glen]

It's off because of the newtextures additions

[willow hawk]

yes

[charred glen]

check #📢announcements , few posts above

[plush pewter]

tyty, I'm loving the new look @willow hawk

[willow hawk]

[cloud zephyr]

Is there some kind of library with ids for spawning NPCs? For some reason the trader at the loner's base in cordon (not the village, the other one) hasn't spawned.

[willow hawk]

he's most likely wandering around...

or simply sleeping

[cloud zephyr]

It's 13:44

And I Searched the bodies around none of them ar his.

[slow fox]

Is playing Ecologist fun in gamma? In anomaly it seemed boring
