[hoary veldt]

Yup

He scales with Duty Goodwill as well

[little needle]

Hmm. Like adding both or whichever is higher?

[candid totem]

Hey can someone explain to me where the stash in the train hangar is? I know its supposed to be up, im just not sure where... I can get to the catwalk outlining the top of the building but after that im lost lol

Something about scaling a fallen steel frame?... i just cant locate it

[graceful iron]

there is a large hole in the roof to the south east corner of the train hanger

with steel scaffolding and other objects that you can climb on

there are a few stashes on the roof (second image is how you reach the first one) sorry about the image spam

[little needle]

RF squad missing quests, what am I actually looking for? I found a location in wild territory that beeped faster, and I saw falling particles and blue effect, but nothing happened.

[graceful iron]

you are supposed to find dead bodies and get a pda from one of them

[little needle]

Huh alrighty then. I wonder where they actually are ... Seems like a pile of bodies would be pretty obvious.

[graceful iron]

what blue effect are you talking about tho?

poltergeist screen effect ?

[wise sparrow]

Probably from being near electro anomalies

[slow fox]

from what i saw its just one body

[little needle]

Something like that

Idk where that fucker is 😂 I hate the RF I hate the RF

[wise sparrow]

Could be underground.

[little needle]

Of course! The tunnel

[maiden nexus]

Is there no way we can get a grass color or texture that maybe blends a bit better?

[limber sorrel]

ok thats not what its supposed to look like

are you using default gamma settings

[limber sorrel]

try setting grass size to 1 instead of 0.7, it should blend a bit nicer since there would be less visible ground

[shut wadi]

is there a way to get armour that im able to fix, beacause all the armour ive find so far was in less than 20% condition. Ive been just runnung around the zone basically naked

[willow hawk]

read the manual inside your PDA

[shut wadi]

or is there a specific mod that i can disable in the pack that allowes me to buy guns and ammo?

outfits not ammo sorry

[jagged lance]

#╭📖faq message

[reef blade]

@willow hawk yo Grok do ammo maker parts Spawn on bodies in the base mod? Or is it only in gamma?

[willow hawk]

@shut wadi you most likely didn't understand how the system works

read up the armor and gun repair section in your pda guide > gamma before trying to circumvent the system

[willow hawk]

it's only in gamma

[reef blade]

Where can I find the loot files? In case I wanna port it for my other custom modlist or modify it?

[willow hawk]

death_manager.script from gamma economy

[reef blade]

Thanks

[cinder valve]

Still doesn't work. It's impossible to get the TASK ID for completing a broken quest

[primal condor]

is there a way to get rid of this annoying film grain effect?

[north turret]

pretty sure thats a effect that plays when you're in radiation

[mystic finch]

my artifact is degrading everytime I sprint is that meant to happen?

[primal condor]

i have radiation effects disabled and theres no radiation in that area

[north turret]

depends what kind of artifact is it?

[mystic finch]

miser's skull

[willow hawk]

perk artefacts, most likely yes

[north turret]

might be some kind of bug with the dynamic radiation mod

[mystic finch]

is there some way to protect them then?

[willow hawk]

You can recharge them using other perk artefacts using the artefacts melter

[willow hawk]

radiation effect

[primal condor]

i've disabled that though

[mystic finch]

I was hoping putting them in one of those artifact containers would protect them

[willow hawk]

it's a vanilla effect

[primal condor]

oh so theres no circumventing it?

[willow hawk]

if they aren't equipped, they shouldn't degrade

[idle beacon]

Can Xenotech (Cordon Mechanic) roam out of Cordon?
I noticed he isn't in Cordon anymore, nor is he dead.

[willow hawk]

yes and this will be disabled

[idle beacon]

Any way I could locate him through the debug menu?

[mystic finch]

this doesn't really work with miser's skull as it needs to be equipped all the time for it's effect

[willow hawk]

yes, and so it degrades all the time

just recharge it using other junk artefacts as I said

[mystic finch]

guess I need to wait to use it then

[willow hawk]

You'll find other artefacts anyways

[mystic finch]

so the non perk artefact don't degrade in this way?

[jagged lance]

no

[odd kettle]

How can I tune how much damage can stalkers take? For some reason all enemies are semi-invincible now. I have to hit several head shots on mid-tier bandits

[jagged lance]

vanilla artifacts dont degrade

[mystic finch]

ok that's good to know

[mystic finch]

what armour do they have? what ammo are you using?

[vapid seal]

Turning off dynamic radiation makes the game crash on load in. Anyone know why?

[jagged lance]

probably save-related

try making a new save file

[vapid seal]

Think that'd mean I'd have to restart?

[jagged lance]

i'd say so yes

[vapid seal]

dammit

[willow hawk]

no

[mystic finch]

ok thanks grok I didn't read anything about this in the manual but I may have forgot

[odd kettle]

5.45 regulars and wearing sunrise suit

[mystic finch]

what armour do the bandits have? If they are wearing heavy armour or higher you will need to shoot them in the legs or head with regular ammo or use ap ammo

[odd kettle]

Those bandits have mid line armours but still the amount of ammo I have to waste to put them down is ridiculous

[odd kettle]

It's like 5-8 head shots or several shotgun shots point-blank

[crimson sedge]

By any chance are you using 5.45 hollow points and buckshot

[jagged lance]

whats the barrel condition of your guns

[odd kettle]

Shotgun is perfect and ak's is rusty or something like that

[odd kettle]

No HP

[jagged lance]

that explains the ak

what percentage specifically

[odd kettle]

It does not for me. Anyway the bullets hit stalkers' skulls multiple times and they can simply ignore that

[jagged lance]

#📢announcements message

[odd kettle]

'round 50 if I am not mistaken

[jagged lance]

fair enough

[odd kettle]

So is there a way to get back to the vanilla anomaly armour penetration and damage balance?

What addons should be turned off?

[jagged lance]

no idea

grok's ballistic overhaul is the base

but idk if other mods rely on it

[little needle]

Pretty easy work around is just give yourself a full repair barrel

Then everything will feel basically normal, at least it does to me.

[odd kettle]

I still don't think that a human skull can just soak 5 buckshot shells point-blank

[mystic finch]

just repair your weapon and if you can't use a different weapon you can repair

[idle beacon]

Turns out not only is Xenotech gone, but Loris is gone as well.
I wonder if it's related. lol

[little needle]

Yea it can't, it's a video game. This mod pack doesn't really chase realism, at all.

[jagged lance]

loris might be sleeping in the back

[idle beacon]

I checked with debug, he is actually not there.

[mystic finch]

it was changed because it was game breaking to be able to take out an exo just using buckshot

[jagged lance]

welp idk

seems lots of people have been having problems with xenotech and loris lately

[little needle]

Buckshot was way over tuned in base anomaly

[tired copper]

Nearly 700kg worth of loot and I haven't found any weapons or armour I can upgrade or any kits to make the tools needed to upgrade. This is brutal 😂

[little needle]

Yea my stash weight is disgusting

[jagged lance]

wtf what are you picking up

[little needle]

I basically pick up and destroy every armor

I want the upgrade parts for plates

[jagged lance]

me too but mine is around 200kg last i checked

[little needle]

I stashed like ten guns I think are cool but can't fix

[tired copper]

Yeah I have been picking up absolutely everything. Lots of running back and forth

[little needle]

It's really effective way to make money actually

Basically selling weapons with extra steps

[mystic finch]

do lots of tasks eventually you will get a green marked stash point hopefully it will contain your basic tools

[little needle]

I somehow got advanced tools from the same box as some documents barkeep sent me to get?

Idk what happened there

[long turret]

why are tools considered so important?

[tired copper]

Done lots of missions and only got one green stash which was in Wild Territory. Finally got my gunsmith tools from that plus 2 X advanced tools. Crazy lucky.

[long turret]

are mechanic upgrades that good

[mystic finch]

yes you also need the tools to repair equipment

[mystic finch]

yes very lucky

[mystic finch]

what area was the stash in?

[little needle]

Army warehouses

Just don't understand if it was quest related?

[mystic finch]

yes this is where you can find advanced tools also I believe that stash counted as a green stash hence why you got a chance at advanced tools

[long turret]

so you need tools to replace barrel?

[jagged lance]

yessir

along with the specific weapon repair kit

[little needle]

Just not sure if it's based on the quest? Or how the quest was in the same box

[long turret]

and then same w armour

each replacement eats a use

[mystic finch]

the quest I believe counts it as a green stash that's why you got advanced tools

[jagged lance]

if you're repairing the barrel without a replacement

if you're moving in another part it doesnt use up a use

[mystic finch]

only if 60 percent

[jagged lance]

if the barrel is in the inventory

if its in the gun you can repair from 0 with the weapon repair kit

[mystic finch]

yes the parts need to be 60 percent or it will consume a use

[jagged lance]

it doesnt matter

[mystic finch]

this is if you are replacing a part though

[jagged lance]

if you use the repair kit to "maintain part" it uses a use regardless

[mystic finch]

yes this is different

[little needle]

Ohh wow. That's a nice quest

[mystic finch]

if you can it is better to repair parts to 100% and use a toolkit with a repair kit in inventory this way you will never consume uses of the repair kit

[jagged lance]

i thought you meant using the repair kit without a replacement part to put in the gun

my bad

[mystic finch]

you get a chance at advanced tools it could be any other toolkit though just not expert tools

[mystic finch]

yes you can drag parts on to the gun directly this will decrease the condition though you can't replace a barrel without a toolkit or workbench though unless you use the weapon kits and mantain parts and choose the barrel

[jagged lance]

thats what i was saying lol

dw i get it

[icy fable]

Hello. Can someone please explain how do I make a complete uninstall of Gamma, so no traces left in the system?

[fallow cliff]

what is the most intense graphic option in the game? im running 3090 with 5900 and in some weathers/time of day my fps might go down as low as 40fps I read the framerate optimisation thingy but i dont want to so drastic option lowerings if possible

i did the 0 core thingy already

[rotund charm]

why i can't attach the scope for the bizon?

[fallow cliff]

it might need an upgrade first?

some weapons needs an upgrade before you can put scopes on them

[jagged lance]

which scope

[rotund charm]

1p29 tulip scope

and i got the okp-7 too

[primal condor]

i have a question, is the addon where companions can run and follow you installed into GAMMA? idk if a quest companion is different than from a normal one, but he can only do the light sprint and lags behind quite alot

[jagged lance]

right click the bizon and scroll down

it tells you what scopes it has

neither of those can be put on the bizon

[rotund charm]

u right i'm sorry

they looked the same i swear

[jagged lance]

dont stress

the 1p76 and 1p29 yeah

[rotund charm]

u have u install it

can u share it on private pls?

[rotund charm]

i don't think so i m trying right now and i can't

[fallow cliff]

i dont think its possible to sell guns as the merchant has to have those type of items in their inventory for them to buy them

[jagged lance]

ive been able to sell a few guns but you're not supposed to be able

[sudden egret]

grass density and grass rendering distance

[fallow cliff]

Do merchant still get "better" stock with higher reputation or the big money achievement in GAMMA?

[jagged lance]

higher goodwill yes idk about the achievement

chances are you wont get the achievement anyway

[sour seal]

Does EOTS-62 scope's "target detection function" actually do anything?

[jagged lance]

only on the gauss rifle

otherwise there's a mod somewhere that should let it work on other guns but idk how stable it is

[sour seal]

gotcha. so just a overpriced sniper scope at this point

Walk through them, you won't get damage

[ornate maple]

I'm trying to improve performance, I like keeping grass really high and it seems to affect the pavement moss / leaves

[brisk zinc]

Performance and grass togheter

I have a 3070 and in order to maintan 60 fps I keep grass almost on minimum and (almost) everything else maxed

Don't expect to have a good performance with high grass

[ornate maple]

The pavement moss looks ugly in my opinion anyways so for that reason alone I kinda wanna get rid of it 🙄

[cunning crest]

I have a problem with the amount of zombies that spawn in the game, I'm talking about gigantic hordes of 15-30.

[cinder valve]

@willow hawk the troubleshooting for completing stuck quests (like the mutant tracker quest) is unclear. Debug HUD does not give any info on the Task ID, with the quest active

[bleak egret]

did you perhaps change some mutant settings in ZCP?

[median lagoon]

is it possible to make prone toggable? having to keep pressed both SHIFT and CTRL make it hard to use any other keys like strafing left right etc

[ornate maple]

@median lagoon toggle crouch via menu options, should be able to toggle crouch and then toggle prone

[bleak egret]

there is no toggle prone option there, just for crouch

[cunning crest]

yes, although later, suspecting that this was the problem, I lowered the values to 10% and the amount of basic zombies to 1. and it remained the same.

[bleak egret]

it can take up to 48 in game hours for the zone to change completely once you make population changes

[cunning crest]

start a new game

[bleak egret]

well you could. that would certainly be easiest to tell if your changes had an impact.

Hey, in the Last Dawn story line one of the first quest (the first?) you have to retrieve a scanner in an anomaly south-west of great swamps, it is not marked on my map so I suppose the scanner is in the bog pounder anomaly which is kinda south-west?

[north turret]

hey guys

does anyone know whats stalker base populations settings

[willow hawk]

0.6 iirc

[north turret]

theres default, survival and minimal, I'm trying to make the bases more alive as I raided the bandit base and it was nearly empty

[willow hawk]

check ZCP in MCM menu

[north turret]

yeah im playing with ZCP

its a fun mod for sure

I'm trying to strike a good balance between stalkers and mutants

[willow hawk]

mutant is at 0.75

can produce mutants at areas transition sadly

but makes the zone more lively

[north turret]

I have beefy pc so I'm adding tons of everything to experiment

so far mutants are everywhere which is so fun

[willow hawk]

it's not a matter of having a beefy computer

[north turret]

but stalkers seem to be pretty weak, or not there

[willow hawk]

most cities and bases have reduced population to avoid lags

[hidden bloom]

"default" is the most base population, the other presets focus on a more desolate zone rather, but you can add your own presets if you want to spend some time on it

[north turret]

cheers

[north turret]

fair enough

[hidden bloom]

...i just checked this channel randomly, i must get some sixth sense for whenever zcp comes up

[north turret]

ZCP is the best mod prob lol

[brisk zinc]

I've pinged you on something

I don't know if you saw it

[hidden bloom]

makes me happy to hear it

[north turret]

anomaly before was dead

[hidden bloom]

yea I answered you lol

[brisk zinc]

I didn't see it then

[hidden bloom]

hheh, well chimera day 1 is def zcps fault

[brisk zinc]

What about pseudogiant?

[hidden bloom]

that too

[brisk zinc]

I stg, I always found one in Cordon

Every time

[hidden bloom]

with balanced spawns there's a small chance for both of these

[brisk zinc]

So it really is ZCP fault

[hidden bloom]

always? not sure, maybe balanced spawns algorithm causes that

but i looked over it and i didnt see any errors

or maybe the weight on that one is a bit high

[brisk zinc]

I've made some new games recently, a pseudogiant is basically a must near the farm in Cordon (where Xenotech is)

[hidden bloom]

with 1.5 spawn templates it's simple to adjust these thigns tho

[hidden bloom]

I'm gonna chalk this one up to RNG, because it makes no sense for an error like that to be tied to a certain smart

[hidden bloom]

also, feel free to ping me if you need help with editing presets

or rather, @brisk zinc if someone needs support for ZCP, feel free to ping me when it happens

i'll answer when i'm online and have time for it

[brisk zinc]

[main sphinx]

whats a good faction to side with

[bleak egret]

Thats subjective. What do you want out of the game?

[main sphinx]

I have no idea tbh just want some cool weaponry, easiest access to decent ammo and to not be shot at by everyone

I'm a loner btw

[bleak egret]

Well, you can continue to get Warsaw items from Loner faction, if you want to get NATO gear too, ally with Freedom, The Ecologists, or ClearSky

[sour seal]

any way to separate the keybinds of grenade launcher and switch sights?

[stoic moth]

Not without editing some files

[brisk zinc]

I think you can stay a loner without actually become one of them

[brisk zinc]

not to be shot at by everyone

You can be an Ecologist then
I think the only enemy faction with them is Monolith

[little needle]

weird

[graceful iron]

or gammaRC3/overwrite/bin

[little needle]

aha!

thank you

[brisk zinc]

I guess that depends on what button you press, then

If you press F12, you can find "screenshots" inside appdata

[graceful iron]

print screen

its a shortcut for shift+win+s

[brisk zinc]

That shortcut is , way quicker than pressing the button, open the folder, sending the pic

[graceful iron]

windows 10 is sometimes really nice, i forgot at some point why i didnt want to upgrade from win7

[brisk zinc]

Probably because it was the best operating system around at the time (as far as gaming were concerned) and because 8 was crap in every way, Microsoft at that point didn't have much credibility, so the general thinking was "8 sucked, 10 will suck twice as much"
If I am not mistaken, there was also something like "XP good, Vista bad" kind of thing involved so it was easy to just think "7 good, 10 bad"

[tardy bramble]

Any way to lower the weapon part cost from merchants? a 1000% increase is a little much.

[plush wharf]

Not really answering your question, but in gamma you can see parts on weapons and their durability. Try salvaging parts from weapons you find with field stripping, or using the multitool for barrels

[north turret]

is there any way to show fps easily? when I try to pull up the Nvidia control panel it just tabs out

[graceful iron]

dont play with any overlay, just press home and then click settings and show fps

[pulsar void]

is there a way to make ppl die realistically, like 1 headshot max unless they are wearing exo or high tier helmets? i'v boosted my dmg to 3x but everyone is a bullet sponge still

[plush wharf]

Use the right ammo for the job

[north turret]

home?

do u mean windows key

[tardy bramble]

Home key is near DEL

[graceful iron]

#╭📖faq message have a look at this

[north turret]

oh thanks

[graceful iron]

there is a key called home on your keyboard (unless small keyboard)

[north turret]

I never use that side of my keyboard besides del.lmao

and arrow keys

[agile prawn]

Suddenly im just ADSing instead of looking through scope

Did I hit some keybind or smething?

[pulsar void]

gun is 100% using AP but ppl still doesn't die with 1 HS even if they are just wearing low tier gear

[graceful iron]

i am not sure what you mean by adsing instead of looking through the scope, did you press v (the under barrel GL keybind)

[graceful iron]

then its 2 headshots, if you want to 1 shot use a rifle caliber like 762x39 or large rifle like 762x54

if you could 1 tap with 556 then there is no reason to use anything more powerful than that(which i think you already are able to one tap headshot with it but not consistently)

[pulsar void]

Is it possible to just deactivate the mod responsible for the armor rework?

[graceful iron]

probably, but i honestly dont know how

and i think its a really large part of what gamma is

[pulsar void]

ye but i simply hate the RPG approach to armor, i and the enemy both should die in 1 HS gonna try to deactivate it and see if it works still thanks for the help.

[plush wharf]

Sounds like something else is going on. If youve multiplied your damage by 3x and the enemies are still "sponges" it sounds like you have a bug

[graceful iron]

the damage multipliers in game settings are completely overwritten by GBO and damage balancer

they dont change anything

[plush wharf]

Ah, I see. Ive never used em so that makes sense

[pulsar void]

I'v deactivated Gamma outfit balances and the game it's already more realistic

[bleak egret]

Do w/e you want.

[agile prawn]

Are there voice actewd quests?

Like in the main games

[full comet]

Hi its possible to see FPS in game or Fraps needed?

[brisk zinc]

There should be an option with Reshade

[rotund charm]

statistics in reshade

[fallow cliff]

I been playing few hours now and I havent seen a single zombified stalker are they off by default? Do I have to add them via the ZCP also while talking about ZCP what would be the recommended settings there to turn on for more hardcore/hard gameplay dont want to accidently turn on mutants that will crash my game or something never used that mod before.

[graceful iron]

they are disabled by default, the settings for them in zcp (at least the version gamma comes with) can break other spawns for mutants and stalkers, you can still find zombified stalkers in their usual bases like the AA complex in jupiter and the saw mill in zaton but thats it, as for mutant zombies you will still see a normal amount of them

[fallow cliff]

Ic so i shouldnt mess with it then

kinda miss seeing just a squad of zombified stalkers wandering about in the zone

[bleak egret]

im glad they are off. nothing but free gear. zombified loot pinatas

[fallow cliff]

cant you customize the loot they drop?

more akin to a normal zombie loot or something

[graceful iron]

this is supposed to be fixed in the current version of zcp but grok said he is going to update it at some point and you can probably update it yourself but it will take some tweaking

[agile prawn]

What kind of progression do u recommend for a new player? I've done a bunch of work in Cordon and moved up to the Garbage. I kinda want some more story in my game so I'm considering picking up a main quest

Also: it's generally speaking not worth to pick up armor/weps unless I can repair them right?

[tidal raft]

I can give you the long version, or the short version regarding both topics.

[north turret]

Hi guys, has anyone had issues with game crashing due to you changing advanced graphics settings? I tried lowering some settings & afterwords the game crashes and wont start again

[fallow cliff]

so far i been just disassembling pretty much everything and grabbing anything over 15% can use the 50-60 below as filler material to fix same parts

[graceful iron]

you can take them and store them in a stash somewhere in your main base to use them later, if you know you will never need them just disassemble them and take the good parts if they have any (50% condition for armor parts and 60% for gun parts)

[cobalt venture]

If you like a gun or find one that's rare pick it up and put it in a stash you never know when you have the parts to upgrade it. In my opinion

[agile prawn]

ah that's good advice. And when asking random stalkers about if they know anything, does that informatio nactually matter or is it RP?

Sometimes they vaguely talk about locations

but without saying any names for example

[fallow cliff]

Gamma comes with a handy addon that tells the base price for a stuff so i been saving the more expensive guns/armors

[cobalt venture]

from what I have seen mostly RP

[agile prawn]

Short is fine, but mainly looking as in how to progress a more story oriented parts.

[fallow cliff]

not sure about crashes from changing settings but I get an occasional crash from time to time

[north turret]

its really bad

its do to with shaders

when I disable the shader mods it helps to launch into the game

then it crashes after misson launch

only full delete and reinstall helps

[fallow cliff]

which mission?

[north turret]

all of em

[tidal raft]

Shoot/stab hostile stalkers, check their weapons for effective parts or any model you want to keep, bring them home to stash, throw away any parts below 60% for firearms, <50% for outfit parts.
Don't carry all firearms you find, only the ones you plan on fixing in the future.

[fallow cliff]

thats a pickle

[agile prawn]

ah yeah, most of the stuff i have seen on corpses is like <10%

bandit armour for example

[tidal raft]

It's normal. They are essentially trash mobs.

[fallow cliff]

not sure if its completely random or if it matters where you shoot em

sometimes when i see armor with 1 on everything it feels like a bug

[tidal raft]

Y'see.. 'cause they hang out at the Garbage..

[agile prawn]

What makes it so I cant fast travel>? i used to be able to right click

is it weight based? im not overencumbered

[tidal raft]

No. Is it a place you've visited at all?

[agile prawn]

ye rookie town

[fallow cliff]

you can customize the fast travel via the MCM menu

[tidal raft]

Disable the Area marker on your PDA, right-click the green house marker.

[fallow cliff]

are you running windows 11 from what i saw yesterday people were saying it can cause problems for this game

[north turret]

yeah windows 11

[tired copper]

Should keep the parts over 10% so you can sell them to mechanics. Every little bit adds up in this game.

[fallow cliff]

you can sell that low %?

[cobalt venture]

I thought over 40% something

[tidal raft]

Eeeehh... the Roubles-to-weight ratio is way too poor to be an effective trade-off.
You gain much more value from keeping the useful stuff, while being able to sprint unhindered.

[bleak egret]

I mean, you sell them for nothing and it costs tool durability..... idk about that

Its like 500 roubles for 10 pieces of trashed parts

[agile prawn]

When someone calls for lets say an escort mission and their location is "SW of X". How big of a radius is it around X? im trying to find this person

but iirc theres no marker or anything

[tidal raft]

Fairly generous. In the general vicinity of 100-200m is enough.

Once you are in the right area, the option to say "About that request.." > "Here we are." will appear.

[agile prawn]

in the messages tab fo the PDA?

she says she SE of the bridge in cordon but im looking around. It's night so hard to find her

[tidal raft]

No, you speak with the person you are escorting.

[agile prawn]

nah I mean as msg like this:

3rd line

[bleak egret]

arent they usually chilling @ camping spots?

[tidal raft]

Aha. Well, you weren't being specific.

[agile prawn]

ye i looked around at some camping spots

[tidal raft]

They will usually wait around nearby the spot they marked off.
However, the radius varies wildly. Anything from 1m from the centre of the area to 300m.

[hybrid spire]

Quick question about the "Artifact Hunter" questline. I wanted to start it at the church in great swamps, but the assistant lies dead infront of the church. can i get the quest elsewhere or can i revive the npc via consol?

[tidal raft]

You can proceed to the next assistant in Yantar.

[agile prawn]

Ah I donit even see a marker, maybe they already ran off

[hybrid spire]

so i cant get the swamp quests anymore?

[tidal raft]

There may be a way to revive the fallen assistant using Debug, but I don't know the exact commands to do so.

[agile prawn]

Every time I sprint I take dmg, no clue how wtf

Did I break something?

I took a medkit and went to sleep

ran outside the housed and started taking dmg

[bleak egret]

#│📚manual

[tidal raft]

Broken legs.

[fallow cliff]

one of the perk artifacts says it gives me mighty foot but i cant see a hotkey to use it anywhere?

[ember vortex]

is there a better way to get kevlar titanium composites? i've only got them from disassembling certain UN armor which is super rare, but you need 20 to make the improved plates

[tidal raft]

Your Use-key.

[plush wharf]

Those are much more common from sin enemies.

[ember vortex]

ah ok, i got like 5 titan plates from like 7 un armor's, killed like 250 monolith and not got a single one lol

[haughty token]

How do I repair the gauss rifle? It has no parts nor am I able to even open up the repair menu on it

[plush wharf]

Yeah, grok has his eye on that. Might be worth mentioning your part drop rates in feedback because grok was looking for stalker kill counts with total parts salvaged

[willow hawk]

@ember vortex yes please

[fallow cliff]

was it 10 or 15 days of play time that it turns on the hard mode?

[willow hawk]

14

[ember vortex]

is that info stored in a file somewhere? the "stalkers killed" on the pda is glitched for me, its been stuck on 178 for ages. I know how many sin and UN I've killed though and how many titan ap plates I've gotten from them 🙂 @willow hawk

[past swan]

anyone got a fix for textures looking like this?

[willow hawk]

Make sure DICK addon is properly downloaded and installed #│🔧troubleshooting

[lost rapids]

Where can I sell looted guns ingame? No trader I find wants them even if they are in perfect, repaired condition

[plush wharf]

Can't sell guns in GAMMA

[quick cloak]

I play the game on Direct 8, should i follow this last step for optimisation ?

#old-framerate-optimisation message

[lost rapids]

Bruh, okay. I see the economy here is very different from OG Stalker games

[bleak egret]

[lost rapids]

Well then, how do I get food and aid stuff without buying it?

[bleak egret]

craft

[lost rapids]

h o w

[bleak egret]

field cooking kit, multi stove for food

drug making kit for drugs

[lost rapids]

Well and what do I kill to get meat? All the stuff there makes me radiation poisioned

[bleak egret]

#│📚manual

[lost rapids]

okay

Is it possible to eat human meat?

[bleak egret]

yes

[brisk zinc]

@lost rapids is this your first time playing Stalker?

[bleak egret]

S n 0 R k

[lost rapids]

No, its my first time in anomaly. I have played the main parts before

[bleak egret]

This aint anomaly, this is GAMMA, a whole nother beasty

[lost rapids]

yea

[brisk zinc]

Okay, so you have the basic, that's good

Like Demonturtle already said, we suggest to read the #│📚manual, you can read it from your PDA as well if you want (maybe that's better)

You can't buy or sell weapons or armors, that's the main feature of GAMMA as a mod pack

To earn money, you need to do quests

You can get quests from traders (recommended) or NPCs (also recommended but I prefer traders)

You can sell what you find looting stalkers and mutants

[lost rapids]

Okay, thanks. I´ll look into it. But 1 question remains, I got how to get food, money and stuff but how do I get armors? Also craft?

[fallow cliff]

Stashes that get marked via doing quests or killing stalkers are actually worth checking

[brisk zinc]

You can buy food and water if you want, but it's a waste of money buying food, since you can cook mutant meat

Water and stuff to drink it's fine to buy

[fallow cliff]

armors/weapons you loot from other stalkers

[brisk zinc]

Crafting is "locked" behing toolkits, you'll need to find them

[fallow cliff]

is VSS "Savanth" classified as sniper or machine gun?

[lost rapids]

Ah okay. And how do I regenerate HP fast? In OG Stalker it regenerated by eating or by using medkit. Since they are pretty expensive here tho, I dont want to waste them

Im walking like this for 5 minutes already

[fallow cliff]

medkits or sitting next to campfire for 10+ mins

[lost rapids]

bruh

[brisk zinc]

It's a difficult mod pack

[fallow cliff]

you can also get some perk artifacts that give health regen

[brisk zinc]

If you can't manage "difficulty", don't play it

[plush wharf]

Yadulin heals over time as well. It's cheap.

[brisk zinc]

I don't want to gatekeep, it's just the honest truth

It's a different experience from Anomaly (that you've never played) and the three OG games

[lost rapids]

Okay, thanks for all the info

[fallow cliff]

this mod pack is basically for masocists i even ramped up my settings to make the game even harder

[median lagoon]

it's not that hard to figure out things if one read the manual, at least for the healing and crafting part

[bleak egret]

i mean gatekeepings a good job, someone has to hold AW down

[brisk zinc]

nope. flavor

[median lagoon]

if you started in cordon you can move to the swamp and do quests for clearsky. there is doctor there which can heal you for a small fee 1850. Also there are 2 CS quests that will reward you good starting and mid game armour. Bear in mind that at the beginning all your money will be spent on meds and ammo.

[lost rapids]

Im on my way there already. Thanks for info!

[median lagoon]

make sure you understand the differenceo between yellow heals (temporary) and white heals (post heal meds like yadulin)

what start patrolling area (in companion commands) does?

[fallow cliff]

does the Batch disassembling for ammo take into account the achievement perk for disassembling?

[bleak egret]

yes (for now)

[fallow cliff]

is it that OP?

[bleak egret]

i didnt think so, but i swear i saw grok or someone talking about adjusting it

ah here it is

#📎to-do message

[fallow cliff]

just making sure as its pain in the ass to disassemble every pile of ammo separately

if you got like 200 rounds for a gun you dont use at all

[bleak egret]

yeah, i feel yah, i batch dissassemble all extra ammo after every fire fight

[lost rapids]

Hey um, where can I get one of these drug making kits you were talking about?

[bleak egret]

stashes

[fallow cliff]

i assume random stash

[lost rapids]

Looting or does someone in Cordon sell them

oh

okay

[fallow cliff]

remember that random stashes in this one dont usually have anything

it needs to be marked for it to generate stuff in them

[bleak egret]

you start getting better and more toolkits around "mid-game"

rostokish areas

until then you gotta be thrifty with your medicines and ammo

[lost rapids]

Okay, thanks

[median lagoon]

just talk wiith every stalkers and get a task from them, when you complete it there is an high chance you get a stash location and in the stash can spawn one of those kits

[bleak egret]

murdering people is good too. get lotsa pdas

[fallow cliff]

the biggest pain i got now is healing my damn legs after every fire fights

looting stalkers can also give random stashes

[bleak egret]

gotta learn cover. let them shoot them selves out then pop out and blast em

also geta good shotgun when you can

they use the lower tier repair kits and are very cost efficient

[loud sierra]

Is it worth using Dynamic Relations with this modpack or is it still hopelessly broken?

[fallow cliff]

i got a named shotgun from a veteran stalker worth like 70k just need to get the tool kit to actually fix it

[bleak egret]

named?

dont they all have names?

[fallow cliff]

btw is it normal that when i use the workshop to trade parts for an armor it doesnt use any charges?

[bleak egret]

yes

[brisk zinc]

@tidal raft didn't you finish a game with that thing enabled?

[bleak egret]

named shotgun lol

ima name my shotgun Swiss

[fallow cliff]

Dushman's saiga

[bleak egret]

oh lol

[fallow cliff]

XD

[bleak egret]

yeah thats not unique

the second to best saiga in the game

the Mercenary variant

[fallow cliff]

im still trying to hunt for Mercenary Seva i assume its still the best armor in the game

[bleak egret]

no, but the Mercenary ACE Seva is

[fallow cliff]

yeah that one

[bleak egret]

that or their nosorog

[fallow cliff]

wanted to start Mercs but after found out i can't buy them anymore went Loners so i can blast everyone of them for a chance for one

[bleak egret]

lol there ya go

the only thing you miss out on is the best pistol in the game, but thats super minor compared to getting the best armor in the game

[fallow cliff]

using MP-443 atm

[bleak egret]

thats ntb, low dmg though

[tidal raft]

I use it all the time.

[tidal raft]

Dynamic Relations work fine by itself. Do not use Fluid Relations alongside it, that's bugged and broken for weird reasons.

[fallow cliff]

where is the setting for fluid so i can make sure its not on?

im using dynamic relations also

[tidal raft]

In MO2, under the Warfare separator.

[fallow cliff]

thx

[tidal raft]

[past swan]

did a full reinstall still some characters have no textures like in the screenshot. eny further davice? thank you heaps!!!

[willow hawk]

go to GAMMA RC3/downloads and check Dux Innumerable Characters Kit zip size

and compare to #│🔧troubleshooting

[agile prawn]

Whenever I run I take damage, none of my legs are completely fucked and there's no status icons bottom left. I looked through the manual but I didn'trt find it

[fallow cliff]

treshold for leg damage is quite big

[bleak egret]

are they half fucked?

[fallow cliff]

you can adjust when it starts hurting you from the body health setting in the MCM

[bleak egret]

50% is the threshold at stock

or maybe 60?

[tidal raft]

60% last time I played.

[bleak egret]

yeah, 60 sounds right

[fallow cliff]

has anyone figured out a fix to the weird shadow bug in the distant areas when you turning the camera

like in the top right and left of the screen

[tidal raft]

Engine limitation for drawing shadows.

[fallow cliff]

its just weird that its fine when looking straight but if i move the camera the same area is then drowned in this shadow

guess there is no way to get the middle of the screen to stretch out to the edges

[tidal raft]

No, because the rendering area is like a parabola-shape.

[bleak egret]

https://tenor.com/view/wut-what-huh-uhm-confused-gif-16433684

[past swan]

It has the same size

[fallow cliff]

ic that is a shame

[tidal raft]

Old engine for old PCs. You'll get much better rendering and performance when Stalker 2 releases with UE5.

[fallow cliff]

yeah looking forward to that

[bleak egret]

mmmm stalker 2

glad the devs are in Prague now

lot safer id imagine

[tidal raft]

Yep. Hopefully all of the staff made it.

Since UE is known for being very mod-friendly, we'll possibly see a tonne of add-ons made for Stalger Dva.

[bleak egret]

what is a Stalger Dva

stalker 2 in another language?

[tidal raft]

Yes, in Cyrillic.

[bleak egret]

https://tenor.com/view/cheekibreeki-cheeki-breeki-intensifies-stalker-bandit-radio-stalker-clear-sky-gif-24295015

kenshi a cloooose second

[lost rapids]

Where can I get water besides buying and looting?

[tidal raft]

Nowhere else.

[bleak egret]

thats it

keep the mineral water for yourself and cook with the canteens

[tidal raft]

Don't suggest refillable canteens add-on.

[bleak egret]

lmao, is that a common request?

[tidal raft]

Ctrl+F "canteens"

[lost rapids]

Why cant I just drink the spicy water thats anywhere

):

[tidal raft]

Unless Falco deleted the dupes.

[sudden egret]

does the flatness upgrade for the VSS actually reduce bullet drop or is that controlled by the ammo entirely

[tidal raft]

Because it's completely stupid to drink irradiated water. Nobody would do that if they were in the Zone just to save a few thousand RUs.

[lost rapids]

Just for the kick

[tidal raft]

Won't hold in court.

[lost rapids]

dang

[bleak egret]

it does, thats the whole idea behind the flatness upgrades

[sudden egret]

Well I know it does in vanilla, just wasn't sure w the ballistics rework

[tidal raft]

The search result comes back with five instances of "Fillable canteens addon".

[willow hawk]

are you using HD models or some extra addons?

also check Fixed Vanilla Models

it got updated recently

[bleak egret]

o no lol. well, ive always thought a still of some sort would make the most sense. come back at the end of the day to 1 water. course someone would have to make that a thing, lord know i wont, or ask anyone

[tidal raft]

If you fire a sub-sonic cartridge in a long open area, you can see the bullet trajectory.

Because sub-sonic fucking sucks at long distances.

[agile prawn]

Sorry for the stupid questions guys. But the limb system and some of the gun mechanics are not super clear to me

[tidal raft]

Purifying irradiated water isn't as easy as just dropping in some akvatabs, and rinsing it.

[bleak egret]

magical artifact powered still

[agile prawn]

When I use medkits, stims, bandages or anything on the limb system I see a buffer on each limb (in yellow-ish). I assume this is temporary? since that bar goes down quite rapidly

[bleak egret]

yes

[tidal raft]

If 'Bubble' worked like vanilla ShoC, maybe.

[agile prawn]

So how exactly do I regain their health? sleeping doesnt seem to work either iirc Ir ead that in the faq too

[tidal raft]

See #│📚manual under Healing.

[bleak egret]

use the white HP things to convert yellow temp hp to happy full hp

[lost rapids]

Aid is so fucking expensive in gamma

1 scratch costs like 5k rubel when you dont have the stuff to craft own medicine

[bleak egret]

thats the curve. once you can make your own meds and have better armor, you need a LOT less of it

[fleet grail]

dont get hurt

ez

[tidal raft]

Not compared to Dead Air.

[willow hawk]

start in easy tourist

[tidal raft]

One bandage in Dead Air is 5,000 RU, while task completion rewards less than 2,000.

[willow hawk]

there's no shame in it

[lost rapids]

Easy hurts my honor

[bleak egret]

well suck it up then and conquer de zone

[lost rapids]

yea

[willow hawk]

don't complain about difficulty when you chose it

[lost rapids]

Ill learn it the hard way

[bleak egret]

remember

always cheeki

your breekis

[lost rapids]

yes

[willow hawk]

This reminds me of my bro that ditched Doom Eternal because very hard difficulty was too hard for him

[bleak egret]

oof

[willow hawk]

Just lower the difficulty instead of raging

[lost rapids]

But for now I love the mod tbh

so much things

[bleak egret]

tbh, didnt like eternal very much for the ammo system

[willow hawk]

well it's a nice change compared to the first one

[bleak egret]

id take the first one over eternal annny day

[willow hawk]

gotta think about which weapon to use against which enemy and manage your ammo accordingly

[bleak egret]

not trying to hug enemies to get my ammo back

no sir, thats lame

[willow hawk]

me too, but doing the same thing again wouldn't have made any sense imo

[bleak egret]

let me find random piles that make no sense around the map

[tidal raft]

Medicine very early is expensive, but that's before you've done any looting or tasking.

[willow hawk]

well, can't really build up hard arenas that way

let's not pollute #🔨base-gamma-support

[bleak egret]

ah, sure

[willow hawk]

Moderators will mute me otherwise

Why is stalker anomaly not released on steam by the way? I dont know much about the backrounds but isn´t there some kind of group behind the game, that could make it more public by doing it?

[tidal raft]

Copyright.

[bleak egret]

my guess is copyright stuff. anom devs arent from GSC

[lost rapids]

damn

[tidal raft]

Anomaly is only allowed to exist as a freeware game.
Publishing it on steam requires permission from GSC, and probably Deep Silver.

[lost rapids]

Doesn´t GSC support anomaly? I mean it made their games like a lot more famous. A cooperation between them and the anomaly devs would be revolutionary for the whole stalker community

[bleak egret]

their lawyers prolly dont

and Deep Silver is the publisher, a whole different entity

[tidal raft]

Haven't I seen this exact conversation before?

Here:
#╟❓general-offtopic message

[bleak egret]

you did

it appears

lol

[molten siren]

I have a phat Red X next to this new Gardener of the zone textures

[bleak egret]

whats the question

[molten siren]

What is wrong with this mod? I think it was just added after I updated my gamma last night ,

[bleak egret]

Is it not working?

[tidal raft]

Might not have been downloaded, or files are missing.

[bleak egret]

My install has an X too, and has no issues.

[molten siren]

Oh really, okay nothing to worry about than, I haven’t checked I just don’t like new Red X’s showing up, thanks

[tribal plover]

Oi, did Grok nuked weird 1.6 dialogue thing from duty expansion or was it just text fixes?

[tidal raft]

See MO2 under Optionals separator. It's disabled.

[rotund charm]

i tried to fast travel but it's say that i need to wait 149 hr

[bleak egret]

Fast travel mod. Can be adjusted in MCM. Can also be disabled. Can find mod in optional section of MO.

[spice cypress]

Should Monolith be spawning in Garbage?
Got a nice rifle out of it, but I'm not sure I should have access to that just yet

[bleak egret]

from what i understand ZCP assigns "random squads" occasionally based on some algorithm. its certainly rare, but i believe it is meant to happen

[spice cypress]

Fair enough

[hidden bloom]

the algorithm is just a random number generator

if you set "random stalker squads" to 20% you'll get 20% replaced stalker squads, same with mutants

[bleak egret]

yeah

what the talking chemical said

[grave canopy]

i dont have simpler Autumn Retextures bushes extracted in my load order

and i also get missing data error on gardener mod

[agile prawn]

Which cooking setup do u guys recommend at the start?

[bleak egret]

you can use fires you find to cook

[agile prawn]

ah right, I tried that but I read the #│📚manual. Do I just right click the meat then near a fire?

[stoic moth]

Is there any way to remove the stutter stepping you get when moving into an anomaly field?

[bleak egret]

you need the field cooking kit still

just open it up near a lit campfire

[bleak egret]

stutter stepping?

[maiden nexus]

Setting grass height to 1 does this. Still pretty jarring imo

[brisk zinc]

Pay me

[tidal raft]

For what?

[bleak egret]

Hes talking about the canteen mod lol

[brisk zinc]

He knows

[tidal raft]

I know he is, but I don't understand what he's getting at.
As if we made a bet? As if he's getting a pay check for not deleting stuff?

[brisk zinc]

Oh you didn't get the joke then

[tidal raft]

I am so confused..

[brisk zinc]

I meant "okay, I'll do it, pay me first"

[tidal raft]

That's not what I meant.

[median lagoon]

is there a way to check the hours player?

*played

[brisk zinc]

Yeah I see it now, sorry
No I didn't delete anything (yet)

[brisk zinc]

I think you can add your game to Steam

And run it from there

No you won't see the hours you've already played but I think it's the only way

[bleak egret]

I thought that was a Bad Idea™️

[median lagoon]

I see well now it's late, my second run

[brisk zinc]

Why? You can add your game as a "game not on Steam" and run it from your library
It's like having a game that you bought on Steam, that you didn't buy on steam

[bleak egret]

Says somewhere in FAQ or manual that it be bad mojo to add any overlay to GAMMA

[brisk zinc]

That's true but it's the only way, I'm afraid

You can always disable Steam overlay

[bleak egret]

Aye

[median lagoon]

these days there is an overlay even if you don't want it. right now I have xbox games and nvidia overlay active and if I play steam it's 3 haha. I wonder how they made it work together

[bleak egret]

just disable em

[north turret]

i turned all the graphics settings to the highest they could go just to see how badly it would run, when i try and return it to default it does nothing

do i just have to

manually do it

[brisk zinc]

There are few ways, we can try them

1. Open your installer, click this

[north turret]

alright ill try that

[brisk zinc]

If that doesn't work:
2) Go in here:
GAMMA RC3\Grok's Modpack Installer\G.A.M.M.A\modpack_patches\appdata
You'll find one "user.ltx" file, copy that file, open your Anomaly folder, go inside "appdata", delete the "user.ltx" file in there, paste the one you copied before
Launch the game

[north turret]

that fixed it tyvm <3

[cobalt venture]

how rare are expert tools because it's been almost 8 hours of me going from north to rostok doing quest along the way and going to almost every stash I find. And I still can't find expert tools

[bleak egret]

you need to check stashes north of Red Forest

[mild spoke]

does gamma have a crashlog and where do i find it? my whole pc crashed and now the game doesnt want to run anymore

[tidal raft]

Expert tools only has a chance to appear in stashes north of Army Warehouse.

[cobalt venture]

and how high is that chance?

[bleak egret]

dunno. keep checking them. also make sure to loot the green ones asap, as they have guaranteed toolkit

[cobalt venture]

does that include army warehouse and dead city as well or just red forest and so fourth

[fresh merlin]

I have noticed that gear stats are always at their maximum regardless of conditions
how do I view the actual stats corresponding to condition

[tidal raft]

No idea. Chances are not explicitly written in the add-ons.
Only in Red Forest, Limansk, Radar and above.

[tidal raft]

Save and reload.

[fresh merlin]

this has been the case since start of my playthrough

I didn't know gear stats were supposed to reduce depending on conditions

[bleak egret]

you holding down Ctrl?

[fresh merlin]

of course not

[cobalt venture]

alright thanks

[fresh merlin]

hold ctrl or alt, nothing happens.

[tidal raft]

Did you install any add-ons outside of GAMMA?

[fresh merlin]

no. I have not played gamma before even.
What does it look like, for gear stats to be reduced by condition

any setting that affects that

[odd mango]

Hey quick question, i got a 9mm glock that requires modificatiom to put gemtech suppressor, but when i click on deatils theres no upgrade for suppressor, is anu upgrade counts?

[loud sierra]

Hmm. It seems like I found the bodies I need for a RF Signal quest but they do not have a a PDA on them. What do I do now?

[median lagoon]

the NVG really kills the fps or something wrong with me?

[tidal raft]

How many corpses have you found?

[tidal raft]

Depends on the level of 'meat' your PC has.

[loud sierra]

Two

[tidal raft]

Since it's Beef's NVG.

[tidal raft]

At least two more should be nearby. Keep looking.

[tidal raft]

If you have a weaker PC you may want to check #old-framerate-optimisation.

[median lagoon]

my pc its rtx3080, although in a laptop but quite good. ofc not with this game anyway as it's an old engine

[loud sierra]

You were totally right. Was in the bushes behind a stack of crates. Thank you!

[tidal raft]

Could be battery usage limitations. I'm not trying to be condescending, but have you checked the power options in your Windows?

[median lagoon]

well, pc configuration could not be a problem tbh. CP2077 runs above 60 maxed with rtx and dlss

[tidal raft]

Temps?

[stoic moth]

Is there a way to change to save location of screenshots? They aren't going into the anomaly screenshot folder

[median lagoon]

gamma runs pretty well but I manage just to get 60fps anyway. it's just now in dark valley I had NVG on and fps tanked like I havent seen it before for example in army wh

Just to be extra clear, this game is more CPU intensive by running on a single core.

Your GPU may be flex, but if you bottleneck with a CPU—you'll get screwed by the engine.

[tidal raft]

You need to edit the path in your user.ltx from Appdata.

[median lagoon]

I knbow the engine it's old and there is no way to scale up with hw. but as I said normaly I run average 60fps which is fine anyway.

[stoic moth]

Ah thanks

[tidal raft]

Still a bit strange since I run an RTX 2080 plus an i7-8770k, and have no issues with NVGs.

[median lagoon]

maybe I was in dark valley and got this because when I used it previosly never had this noticeable tanking with fps

I restarted the game just to check it's a one time thing

[bleak egret]

it was probably because its DARK valley and the NVGs needed extra juice

[quiet rock]

guys i have this night vision equipped, the lamp works fine but when i press the key for nightvision it doesn't work

[tidal raft]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[brisk zinc]

Long press

[quiet rock]

oh

i'm an idiot

thanks

[tidal raft]

Teach them.

[brisk zinc]

Catch a fish, just a day, teach how to do it...

And they'll help the whole server

[tidal raft]

[quiet rock]

tbh even having faqs and keymaps my damn brain think that's better to ask, instead of going there

[tidal raft]

One day we won't be here. That's when you'll be glad to have learned the wae of Ctrl+F.

[sleek dust]

Alright so i'm stuck rn. I've discovered the wish granter, the CCon and the war lab (so i got in the war lab) yet i can't finish the "a concrete tomb" and "northern passage" quests

when i passed the generator bunker door, all the doors were locked except one and it was for a small storage room

[north turret]

How do you reload, have the correct ammo for a pistol but its not letting me reload when I press R

So confused atm

[brisk zinc]

Are you using MagsRedux?

[north turret]

Havent changed anything with the mod, only have the 291 loaded

[brisk zinc]

Okay you're not using it then

Well are you sure you have the correct ammo for your gun?

[north turret]

Yea 100% certain

[brisk zinc]

Sorry but I gotta ask

[north turret]

and have the correct key bound

lol i understand

[brisk zinc]

Hmm

That's a first one

Save and reload

Actually

Can you do anything at all?

Talking, open your inventory

Using something

[north turret]

Yea

[brisk zinc]

Okay, it isn't busy hands

[north turret]

I shoot through my clip, and cant reload

I can select the ammo type with Y

[brisk zinc]

Yeah try save and reload
Or just reload

[north turret]

Just tried save/reload

didnt work

[brisk zinc]

[bleak egret]

change reload in keybinds?

[north turret]

No need if there isnt any conflicting keybind tho

changed the keybind for fun

didnt work either

lol

[bleak egret]

well, that was worth a shot lol

is this at the start of a new game?

maybe your d/l was borked

[north turret]

Dl was good

didnt have any errors/faults when installing

base game and everything else works fine

lol

[bleak egret]

but

this issue appears immediately after installing the first time at the start of a new game?

[sleek dust]

bump

[brisk zinc]

@tidal raft since you're around

[tidal raft]

Aye

[brisk zinc]

Maybe you have the solution for this

[tidal raft]

What's the latest thing you've done?

[sleek dust]

discovered the wish granter -beforehand i got in the sarcophagus through limansk and so, discovered the monolith control room first-

then i went up north to the generator and discovered the war lab, got in it and i tried opening everydoor (all locked) so i went back up to the sarcophagus and then at the bar where i had to meet mangun

[tidal raft]

In one sentence

[sleek dust]

that's literally what i'm doing mate

anyway, after meeting mangun i had the discover wish granter task, which i did

now all i have is this :

[tidal raft]

Discover wish granter is not from Concrete Tomb.

[sleek dust]

well i had another quest that asked me to do it and it's done now

[tidal raft]

All right, did you manage to enter the Warlabs?

[sleek dust]

yeah i'm in it now i literally just found a door that now opens

[tidal raft]

All right, you're on the right track then. Keep going.

[sleek dust]

gotcha, thanks still

@tidal raftinteresting

[tidal raft]

Yep.

[ivory bridge]

Is there currently a bug with randomized radiation? I get a grainy effect as if I'm near one, but I'm not getting any readings on my Geiger counter.

[sleek dust]

so uuuh now there's a black screen after all the cutscenes :v

[tidal raft]

What option did you pick at the end?

One or two?

[sleek dust]

||join cc||

1

i'll take two

i reloaded because of the black screen thingy

[tidal raft]

That's it. You're "done".

[sleek dust]

I see so i take it that the second is the correct uh

[tidal raft]

I guess you didn't play ShoC.

[sleek dust]

i did

[bleak egret]

seems like he didnt

[sleek dust]

i finished all the games

[bleak egret]

wut

[sleek dust]

i'm just not sure what yall are saying

[bleak egret]

did you forget.. like the games plot?

[tidal raft]

What was the last thing you did in ShoC then?

[sleek dust]

no

[red dust]

Hello, I didn't see this on FAQ, how much space do I need for GAMMA?

[tidal raft]

#old-how-to

[bleak egret]

[sleek dust]

this guy..

jk

in anomaly yes

unless i'm wrong

[bleak egret]

no... in SHOC

they had their own independent cutscenes lol

[sleek dust]

lol really

were they cut ???

[tidal raft]

Well, the other five are just variations of the same thing.

[bleak egret]

no! lmao

[bleak egret]

o yeah, for sure variations on a theme

there was like 4 or 5 "bad" endings

and a few "good" ones

[brisk zinc]

It should be something that it let you know that you're near them

It can be removed if you want
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/dltx-no-radiation-grain-fx

[bleak egret]

[tidal raft]

Essentially by asking this you seemed a bit fresh out of the water.

[sleek dust]

[bleak egret]

[sleek dust]

[ivory bridge]

@brisk zinc I've got no problem with the screen effect, but I'm saying the grainy effects are playing as if I'm near one but I hear no clicks from the counter or anything. No health damage either. I'm wearing leather coat and standard plastic respirator. The starting Loner item. So maybe it's protecting me from it?

[bleak egret]

imagine joining the ccon

https://tenor.com/view/shame-game-of-thrones-gif-11381550

[ivory bridge]

@brisk zinc Disregard. My bad. My mask was shielding me from the radiation. When I took my mask off. The damage started.

[north turret]

didnt ask !

[bleak egret]

you did!

[north turret]

stop posing on my page i will ban u

[bleak egret]

o no

[ivory bridge]

@brisk zinc I will say though, if you switch over to environmental radiation mode on your counter and walk into a patch. It won't pick anything up. Don't know if that's intentional or not, but I figured I'd bring it up.

[tidal raft]

Listen. If you want to shitpost, or troll someone—please do it in #🎪bruh-fart.

[north turret]

get a real job you turbovirgin

[brisk zinc]

Put it in #old-bugs at this point

[brisk zinc]

[brisk zinc]

@tidal raft sorry

[ivory bridge]

Right

[brisk zinc]

@bleak egret why the salt?

[bleak egret]

Fastest ban of all time, especially from me

Nice job.

Probably an alt. account. It was created 25th Jan this year.

[full orbit]

how much HP does a Psudogiant have, because 60 ash rounds did not kill it

[brisk zinc]

It depends on where you're aiming

His back and the eyes are the less "armored" parts

[red dust]

does the installer download from moddb?

[full orbit]

guessing the skull has more then =70 armor then? was just dumping because new gun lets see what i can do

[brisk zinc]

Yes, obviously

[red dust]

i have 60kbps download from moddb, im doomed

[plush wharf]

You're better off using buckshot, HP rounds, hydrashock, etc

[red dust]

just to be clear, i mean the installer, does it download the addons FROM moddb?

[plush wharf]

Pretty sure ash12 doesnt have hollowpoints

[brisk zinc]

My man 🤝

Addons and mods are the same thing

[full orbit]

correct, only 38 and 75 br bullets

[red dust]

i know

[brisk zinc]

The answer is the same

Yes

Every Anomaly mod is on Moddb

The installer use Moddb

[red dust]

ight thanks man

[brisk zinc]

You can do something about it

But you're gonna use the installer anyway

We have a Google Drive link with all the mods

Problem is, you're gonna need to update those mods

• download all the new ones

• updating the old ones

[red dust]

it's whatever, ill just leave it overnight i guess

[brisk zinc]

Use the installer then

[red dust]

just hope it'll be done once im back from work lol

[bleak egret]

why hope? make it so

https://tenor.com/view/make-it-so-picard-gif-5445593

[ornate maple]

Any chance someone know the addon associated with the stomach grumbling noise?

[hoary veldt]

Voiced Actor, probably

[soft mirage]

Any known issues of quest items not being in the location?

[fossil pawn]

I have supply lvl 3 with Mercs, how come Dushman is still not selling me 5.56 ammo? Do I have to reach supply lvl 4 ?

[torn sonnet]

dumb q, is it possible to go to jupiter at all without the psi emission helmet

i thought you could go via limansk but i just crossed into jupiter for the first time and got the psy emission warning

[ornate maple]

I fast-travelled to Yanov w/o the helmet and got the "dangerous emissions etc etc protection needed"
