[bleak egret]

thats pretty rare tbh

[fallow cliff]

woth 101k i think

i assume Merc is still better thou

[bleak egret]

BiS nosorog is merc, yes

im not sure about regular exo

probably still merc. they have all the best armor

[fallow cliff]

i killed so many mercs so far but no Seva suit

[bleak egret]

ah yes, the ACE

be careful when looting those, they share icons with other suits

theres like 3 suits, same icons, different names and stats

[fallow cliff]

yeah i usually only loot/keep stuff thats more expensive than the one im using

feels good when you finally fix up that one gun/armor thats been sitting in the stash forever as you finally got better tools to make repair kits

[bleak egret]

o for sure

[fallow cliff]

i was thinking of making the Heavy armor kit with advanced tools but im not sure if its worth it

[bleak egret]

i usually get a lot of endgame guns from the Barrier Defense mission in AW

[fallow cliff]

it takes 5 medium repair kits

[bleak egret]

not that i can use them for another 5 days lol

[low dragon]

maybe try adding more delay before the driver timeout, see #│🔧troubleshooting . this thing is weird i can has huge 2-3 sec stutter but it doesnt crash since i disabled steep parallax, it was 100% crashing when it was on, there is no logic

[bleak egret]

thats ntb, but you can always go stash hunting

5 mediums is only 15k ish in parts

thats 4 rostok missions

[fallow cliff]

true

[hoary veldt]

"only"

[bleak egret]

yeah, thats not even one rostok run

its really not a big deal

especially if you supplment with crafting parts

[fallow cliff]

im swimming in tech parts atm as i keep finding broken radios

[hoary veldt]

But yeah no, crafting into mediums into heavy kit to repair an Apoc or Hybrid is absolutely great

Sounds like you'll have an easy time making PDA upgrades and better detectors

[fallow cliff]

i made the grizzly detector i assume it works same as Veles just without the anomaly markers on it

[hoary veldt]

Yup

[bleak egret]

right

[hoary veldt]

Grizzly will carry you very well

[bleak egret]

but ima goon and need svarog lmao

[hoary veldt]

Just don't glue your eyes to it like I do with Veles and Svarogs

[bleak egret]

otherwise i run into everything

[fallow cliff]

even thou the game says im "Experienced" stalker in my PDA i still keep running into vortexes and flash anomalies while looking at my PDA

[bleak egret]

LOL

[hoary veldt]

Experienced in running into anomalies

[bleak egret]

experienced at running into anomalies

ooooooooooooooo

[hoary veldt]

Get

Fucked

[bleak egret]

LMAO

[hoary veldt]

[bleak egret]

[fallow cliff]

i do feel little proud one of my companions started as Rookie stalker and now hes title has changed to experienced

[bleak egret]

proud papa

[fallow cliff]

sometimes the Companions do feel a bit OP

[bleak egret]

yeah, i never use em

too much free weight and brings too much aggro tanking

[fallow cliff]

i gave both mine SVD's and they took out the military post in Cordon

[bleak egret]

mhmm

[fallow cliff]

[bleak egret]

but if you like em

use em

[fallow cliff]

ima use them for few more runs to bring all my stuff from Cordon to Rostok and then its time to let them fly from the nest

[bleak egret]

personally like svadosk the best

[fallow cliff]

will leave them with the SVD's (they are 0 anyways )

[bleak egret]

for a base

wooow

thanks for killing everything for me

i gift you this rust

[fallow cliff]

yep

I havent disabled the brain scorcher yet so i cant go there i think

[bleak egret]

oh yea, understandable

radar is a bitch

[civic wharf]

did pretty much all I could find there, I've even turned Vsync on, my last possible solution is to disable temp saves but other than that I just don't know

[fallow cliff]

you running the game borderless mode?

[hoary veldt]

You can head past into Zaton if you want once you have the Psy Helm

[fallow cliff]

some people say it can reduce stuttering

[hoary veldt]

Just be prepared to take Red Forest or fight through Limansk

[fallow cliff]

Red forest sounds scary with Gamma

[bleak egret]

red forest

limansk is just free loot

[hoary veldt]

It's a little freaky, but it's totally worth it for the artifacts

Plus, Sin/Monos/UNISG are there for good loots

If you can handle 'em, anyways

[bleak egret]

not for long

[hoary veldt]

[fallow cliff]

I still yet to see any monolith guess they dont appear in the southern zone

[bleak egret]

grok adding rocket launchers and lmg to sin and unisig

[fallow cliff]

oh god

[bleak egret]

good luck next run lol

[hoary veldt]

What

Dear lord please tell me he isn't gonna add rocket launchers

LMGs I can take

But getting sniped through bushes with a rocket launcher in Red Forest sounds...

[bleak egret]

#old-feedback-suggestions message

[fallow cliff]

[hoary veldt]

Lord, I hope not

AI aim with rocket launchers isn't gonna be fun

Anyways, I digress

[bleak egret]

ok, grok now saying its like a 1% chance sin gets a launcher

so we ok

[hoary veldt]

I still don't want to imagine being unlucky with a Sin spawn in Red Forest and getting sniped through bushes with it

[fallow cliff]

so with our luck the first 3 man squad we see will all have rocket launchers and LMG's

[bleak egret]

well, hes been tuning the loadoats for like all factions last couple of days

so your next runs gonna be a bit interesting

[fallow cliff]

the loadouts dont change mid game anymore?

even if it spawns new stalkers?

[bleak egret]

tbh i dont know

could always do that clear all free squads command to kill everyone

and then wait 48 hours

you can see the exact loadout changes via github over in #📢development

[fallow cliff]

before gamma i did usually run with that mod that changed factions gears and i always took the best ones for them

[willow hawk]

Ah yes, that addon is a joke

[fallow cliff]

jesus christ just had a heart attack standing in anomaly field in rain with nightvision on and scanner in my hand and suddenly my NVG go completely bright cant see shit turns out Pulse just spawned above my head just barely made out of it

[civic wharf]

trying borderless right now to see if it does something

nope, got a crash even after I increased processing time through the registry, disabled core 0, switched to borderless, enabled Vsync, turned steep parallax off, set fps limit to 60

I honestly don't know

[fallow cliff]

were you able to play the game at all?

meaning did the crashing start after some game time?

there is few bugged quests that can cause crashing

one of them is quest from Cold in the swamps to help them defend the pump station

that will make you CTD

[winter raptor]

is the new military storyline available to Duty?

[graceful iron]

only ecologists and military

[dusty nebula]

can i install the backpack animation by blindside to this pack ?

[primal condor]

why do my companions not use the weapons i give them? theyre full condition, fully repaired all parts working, they have the ammo in their inventory too, but whenever enemies appear they unequip the gun and take their base weapon out

or sometimes they just stare at the enemy with the gun out but dont shoot

[graceful iron]

#🔨modded-gamma-support

[graceful iron]

you cant force companions to use a specific gun, they will choose one based on the distance to the enemy and the damage of the gun (could also consider other stats)

you dont need to give them ammo either, they will just magically have ammo for any gun they use

[primal condor]

one of my companions' base weapon is the SVT-40, I gave them a forester k98 but they still decide to use the svt on long range? huh

okay thanks i guess ill just have to get used to it then

[graceful iron]

damage?

[primal condor]

i think the forester k98 does tons more than the svt

not sure but i would imagine

[willow hawk]

Svt is better

Stronger ammo, better ROF

[primal condor]

ohh alright then thank you

[runic oasis]

Hey hey people,

Is there a way to spawn items/complete quests?

I think something bugged out for me

[graceful iron]

debug menu, you can press f7 while in game to open it

see #╭📖faq on how to enable debug mode #╭📖faq message

for completing a quest there is another post in #╭📖faq as well

[fleet shuttle]

hi, im new to moding. have finished all three games and currently playing anomaly vanilla. wonder if i can download gamma and just check/uncheck the mods i want instead of download and install mods from moddb. will eventually play gamma as intended it was intended

[runic oasis]

Did not remember there is a faq section lol. Brainfart. Thank you

[fallow cliff]

Gamma comes with mod manager that you can freely tick/untick mods

[graceful iron]

you can install gamma and untick or add some mods but not all of them, some are just important parts. there are a few posts in #╭📖faq and #custom-textures you might want to look at

[fallow cliff]

how ever the mods were made to work with Gamma in mind so some of the game mechanics might get wonky without them

it uses the standard Mod manager 2 short for MO2

[graceful iron]

gamma uses a portable instance of mo2, any addons you want to use will have to be installed through mo2 and put at the end of the modlist to work correctly

if you need help with extra addons you can ask at #🔨modded-gamma-support

[fleet shuttle]

ok, thanks very much. i might actaully try that out and download gamma then customise anomaly with the mods i want that way. all the mods i want to download is already in gamma. or is this a not so good idea? will download gamma sometime in the future anyway

[fallow cliff]

you can add more mods to Gamma just make sure to study so it doesnt conflict with anything already in gamma

Gamma in its core is basically someone elses modded Anomaly but its a community project to make it easy and fast to hop into Anomaly without having to do modding yourself

wish there was more these type of projects for other games like Skyrim and fallout it usually takes me a full day of modding those games and by the time i finally get everything ready for play i lose interest

[graceful iron]

its inside the tower with the machine gun, second floor

[fleet shuttle]

exactly, and when i read that you can disable and enable the mods thats when i got the idea.

[fleet shuttle]

yes exactly

[patent jay]

I'm looking for the g_god command to work as I'm trying to deal with a section with completely invincible mercenaries - I quite literally unloaded 30 5.45 AP rounds into the guy's face at close range and he didn't die and his broz wiped me out with a pistol about 30 times in a row, something's hideously broken there. g_god is showing as an unknown command and I've done everything I can to run debug mode to no avail... Any ideas?

[graceful iron]

#╭📖faq see how to enable debug mode

is he wearing a nosorog by any chance ?

[patent jay]

Tried the -dbg argument on the end of the executable in the launcher, tried the tickbox in the standard launcher, nothing's working - no idea why

[graceful iron]

#╭📖faq message you run the launcher through mo2, tick debug and click play stalker anomaly

in game you press f7

debug menu, there you go

[patent jay]

aah kewl will try thanks

[fallow cliff]

if you changed your game to use 0 core already you need to run anomaly through its own launcher

cant use the MO2 one it will give error but same steps apply

[patent jay]

0 core?

[fallow cliff]

run anomaly tick debug mode start game exit game run gamma and it should be enabled

[graceful iron]

what

[fallow cliff]

0 core can be found in the Faqs it helps with stutters

🤔

[patent jay]

oh right thanks - I'm having big problems with that but thought it was my potatorocket PC

[graceful iron]

he is trying to enable debug, not disable core 0

oh

#old-framerate-optimisation

[patent jay]

no but thanks for the pointer, I wasn't aware of that - I'm running on a 2600k with a radeon 7970OC all from 2012/2013. It's a hipster PC 'coz it's vintage!

[fallow cliff]

i know but someone said to run anomaly through MO2 launcher but if they had done the 0 core change already the MO2 normal anomaly launcher wont work 😛

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/976570969768476753

almost to the bottom

[fallow cliff]

just saying that as i couldnt launch Anomaly normally through MO2 after i changed the 0 core texts in the settings.ini

[graceful iron]

you messed something up in the ini then

[fallow cliff]

had to actually use anomalys own launcher to enable debug mode

[customExecutables]
size=11
2\binary=C:/Stalker Anomaly/bin/AnomalyDX11AVX.exe

11\arguments=%ComSpec% /C Start /High /Affinity FFFFFFFFFFE C:\Stalker Anomaly\bin\AnomalyDX11AVX.exe

should be correct thou 🤔

only changed the ones the guide said to change

[patent jay]

it worked, you guys are LEGENDS thanks! I think I need a cigarette after knifing them all up closer

[graceful iron]

you can close the ini and then go to mo2 and check the paths there

[civic wharf]

Can I find a list somewhere of who sells which weapon mod packs and at what supply level?

[graceful iron]

i dont think such a list exists, NATO factions sell NATO related attachments and kits and the same for WP factions

most kits start appearing at level 4 supply

[fallow cliff]

how does the supply level increase?

just time passed?

[graceful iron]

goodwill, and you get goodwill from doing quests for that faction

#│📚manual

[fresh merlin]

what is the comparison between VSSK and SVDS PMC?

VSSK seems to do more damage the bullet has more air resistance so less damage at longer range?

[graceful iron]

yes, its subsonic

[fresh merlin]

also deer hunter m700 looks great but the lapua rounds are freaking expensive

is it really worth investing into it instead of svds pmc

[graceful iron]

you wont be able to sustain 338lapua as a main sniper

you will have to switch a lot to smaller ammo while you collect more large rifle

i have one deer hunter on me just to kill nosorogs, chimeras and pseudogiants

20-40 rounds but slowly running out

it can one shot giants in the eye and one shots any stalker

[fresh merlin]

then what are your preferred AP options for the economy?

[graceful iron]

depending on my faction, i use 556 or 9x39

one sniper or DMR and one hydrashock pistol

[supple cape]

guys i feel stupid, how can i activate a laser on a weapon, i dont find the hotkey

[graceful iron]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma hold L

[supple cape]

thanks ❤️

[fresh merlin]

you use M4's AP rounds?

[graceful iron]

yes, sometimes use other 556 guns like AK5 if i find one

[hazy ridge]

any caliber larger than 7.62x51 are too expensive to sustain for a long run
maybe only use then when you need to donk some chonky monolith
the best caliber right now to consistently deal with all NPC enemy is 7.62x51
any gun can do it, and you better land headshot to conserve ammo

[fresh merlin]

scar-h then. I mainly use scar-h too. But I have a bunch of m4 AP ammo from loot

so maybe I have to consistently switch between m4, scar-h and svds pmc

[hazy ridge]

i think both 7.62x51 and 7.62x54 can severely injure typical low/mid tier enemy so you can do some funny interrogation

[graceful iron]

556 AP can 1-3 shot headshot most enemies no matter their helmet, it has good accuracy, ballistics and economy

[civic wharf]

Bugged gun? I don't have expert tools (thus the advanced kit) yet so I can't check if replacing its parts as it says really works

[fresh merlin]

by economy you mean loot economy right? because the selling price of m4 AP is only a tad less than scar-h AP arounds

[graceful iron]

a UI bug, save/load ?

[civic wharf]

it persists through saves, it's been showing that since I got the weapon

[graceful iron]

both crafting and buying, you find a lot of parts for small rifle regularly

[hazy ridge]

german 7.92 body shot also good with low/mid tier too
but it have trouble when dealing with northern monolith

5.56 is good due to loot economy

nice stats too

[graceful iron]

you can just replace it from debug, throw it on the ground and shoot it i guess, not sure if there is a way to fix this bug since till now it was always something unimportant

[fresh merlin]

Another intriguing option is the saboteur. The crafting price for the federal bullets is unusually low

[graceful iron]

subsonic with bad ballistics, it can be good up close or for only headshots but thats about it

[hazy ridge]

btw
just a side note
9x19 AP and .45 hydra are absolute beast to deal with low/mid tier enemy and mutant
9x19 AP drop quite a lot
.45 hydra is harder to find but it shred mutant like no tmr (not include chonky bois giant and chimera)

[cunning quiver]

Guys what is it? are they dying on something?

like i have to load the last save

[graceful iron]

if a quest giver dies you fail their quest

[cunning quiver]

but why my rep goes down

when its not my problem

[bleak egret]

cause you failed, regardless of why

[fresh merlin]

Because game hates you

[cunning quiver]

daym

thanks

[hoary veldt]

It just happens

The rep loss isn't huge, you can work it back

[bleak egret]

or kill them all

for vengeance

o wait hes got an echo

n.m u cant kill them all yet

later though

[graceful iron]

take quests when you know you can complete them quickly, most random npcs travel the zone and can get themselves killed

[low dragon]

hey there is no code on the dead ecologist for the first door in X18, anyone knows why? Do I have to wait for the artifact hunter quest to trigger it?

[fresh merlin]

Is m4 tactical the best 556 rifle

[magic reef]

checked the faq and learned after 30 hours IM that you can have one damaged part of a armor and still get it to 100 by repairing if above certain percentage!

[hoary veldt]

Best 5.56 is Howa Type 20 or AR-15 HERA imo

[fresh merlin]

What makes them better

[hazy ridge]

animations

[graceful iron]

the x18 is not tied to the artefact hunters, its a vanilla location and process. the code is sent to you on the pda messages

[hoary veldt]

Howa has a built in March scope, good recoil, and has decent stats

[low dragon]

oooooh, gonna check the PDA thanks

[hoary veldt]

AR-15 HERA is basically the M4 Tactical but better

[fresh merlin]

How about fnc with higher accuracy

[bleak egret]

ar15 is all the dakka

[hoary veldt]

FNC doesn't have the recoil control and 1200 RPM of the HERA

[bleak egret]

highest rof AR

[fresh merlin]

recoil control eh

[hoary veldt]

It also doesn't compare to the Howa because of the built in scope and addition of a laser with decent recoil control, again

[fresh merlin]

I wish we could see gun recoil stats

[bleak egret]

yeah, that wouldnt hurt

[hoary veldt]

FNC is a decent army tier rifle

[fresh merlin]

I have both howa and hera. which to use then

[hoary veldt]

But I'd upgrade to a Howa or Hera when I have the chance

[bleak egret]

hera of course

[hoary veldt]

If you value precision, the Howa

[bleak egret]

lol

[hoary veldt]

If you value blasting the shit out of people, go HERA

[hazy ridge]

both

[bleak egret]

if i value precision im not using an AR

ima use a DMR

if i want dakka, i use AR

and ar-15 is dakka king

https://tenor.com/view/dakka-tabletop-dungeoneers-discord-orcs-irks-gif-22814163

[hoary veldt]

Howa is easier to feed than the SR-25

[fresh merlin]

don't they have the same accuracy?

[hoary veldt]

[visual flicker]

do I get goodwill penalty if I kill someone disguised but not uncovered?

[hoary veldt]

Again, the Howa has the built-in scope

With variable zoom too

[cunning quiver]

But that quest was for some anomolous research

[hoary veldt]

People don't care, they just know you failed

[fresh merlin]

I will give everyone march scope anyway

[bleak egret]

built in scope

is a con

not a pro lol

[hoary veldt]

It's a good scope though

[visual flicker]

Oy, em I the only one who use disguises non-ironically? 😛

[hoary veldt]

March is one of the best scopes imo

[hazy ridge]

ironsight

[hoary veldt]

Plus you can use the laser as a secondary close range sight

[bleak egret]

laser is useless when you are full dakka

[hoary veldt]

Plenty of people use disguises

[graceful iron]

disguises are genuinely useful, what

[bleak egret]

that thing is a lightshow

[hoary veldt]

I'm an ammo conservationist so

Dakka isn't my thing

[visual flicker]

Yea, but most of the time I see a questions asked about the way this mechanic interacts with another, nobody knows for sure

[bleak egret]

you are not if you use an AR

[graceful iron]

dakka is stupid. run away

[hoary veldt]

[bleak egret]

which is why i use a dmr and a shotty lmao

[hazy ridge]

its pretty sad that we cant mount precision scopes on new ASH 12
i love that boi

[graceful iron]

the kit puts a mid range scope

[hazy ridge]

it can use kit?

[graceful iron]

supp kit from WP factions

[hoary veldt]

As long as you're considered under your disguised faction, the goodwill shouldn't go down

[fresh merlin]

is this just because hera has more rounds in a mag

[hazy ridge]

thats something new, i will check that out

[hoary veldt]

Drum mag plus 1200 RPM iirc

[hazy ridge]

[bleak egret]

its because AR-15 hera has a ton of rounds and over 1000 rof

[fresh merlin]

honestly I use single fire most of the time

[bleak egret]

right, like i said

if you want to use an AR, you are only using an AR over a DMR because dakka

so if go AR, use hera or ASH

if you want DMR use other gun

[fresh merlin]

Because i have spare ammo mostly

[bleak egret]

DMRs can use small rifle ammo too

[hoary veldt]

There are some merits to using an AR over a DMR

[bleak egret]

stares at ISG VSS

[hoary veldt]

Easier ammo or being easier to repair

[simple cipher]

what's dakka?

[bleak egret]

https://tenor.com/view/more-dakka-warhammer40k-ork-orks-dakka-gif-15898836

[fresh merlin]

What is the name

[hazy ridge]

idk why it can mount grenade launcher lmao

[hoary veldt]

Because

[hazy ridge]

such in a zone

[hoary veldt]

Technology

[bleak egret]

Rifle Dynamics RD-9x39 ISG (BaS)

[graceful iron]

artefacts

[graceful iron]

read the merc VSS's description and be mind blown

[fresh merlin]

80% accuracy

[bleak egret]

upgradeable. all guns stock are incomplete

[fresh merlin]

so after upgrades it will be more accurate than upgraded m4 tactical?

[hazy ridge]

80-90% acc is fine tbh

[bleak egret]

unsure, but certainly much better

[graceful iron]

it has 87 max accuracy

[hoary veldt]

The ISG VSS is also pretty easy to feed with ammo

9x39 isn't particularly costly to craft

[bleak egret]

right, uses small rifle ammo

which is why i use it when i run out for the godly pmc svds

[fresh merlin]

isn't subsonic round bad with ballistics ?

[simple cipher]

no love for sks?

[bleak egret]

oh 100% its a midrange killer. vss is no sniper

[hoary veldt]

It has bigger bullet drop, but you can usually compensate for it

[hazy ridge]

it drop but 9x39 can 2 shots ppl so

[hoary veldt]

Yeah, 9x39 is a Stalker killer round

[hoary veldt]

SKS is amazing, wdym

[bleak egret]

so isg vss has the an-94's 2 shot firing mode

so each pull you 2 tap headshot

aka u kill everyone

[hazy ridge]

the SP6 is very good
SP 5 is pretty meh for some reason

from my exp

[simple cipher]

yep, fell in love the first time, found a tactical one too

[bleak egret]

SKS tactical is great, and can last all game

but there are better options

[hazy ridge]

honestly
i wish grok can shorten the SKS reload

[simple cipher]

im too poor for anything else

[bleak egret]

idk about shortening

if he did that you could start the game with an endgame rifle

[hazy ridge]

SKS is amazing
but that long and atrocious reload time tho

[fresh merlin]

the 338 federal rounds are subsonic right?

[bleak egret]

o is that the round for that weird ass plunger gun?

the

saboteur?

[hoary veldt]

The DVL, yeah

[bleak egret]

that gun is kinda garbage

at least i think so

[hazy ridge]

it kinda is

average stats

[bleak egret]

low dmg low clip size

looks like a plunger

[hoary veldt]

I'd use it if there aren't any better snipers in my stash

But considering the M700 is army rifle and that DVL is advanced

[bleak egret]

i mean, you can start the game with a better sniper lol

[fresh merlin]

you shouldn't look at the game's gun damage

[bleak egret]

SKS

[fresh merlin]

0.85 gun power and 1 ammo power

[red dust]

TOZ is best gun

[bleak egret]

ok, now compare it to ANY other sniper

im sure the ammo does not compensate for losing 30 damage on average

[hoary veldt]

Well, the ammo does have 85 pen

[fresh merlin]

rd 9x39 is 0.88 gun power and 0.9 ammo power with higher air resistance

[hoary veldt]

Granted, it's 1 very specific ammo type and most of the time, whatever sniper rifle rounds you're using are probably going to go to the head

[hazy ridge]

bolt action sniper need a good amount of dmg to compensate for their bolt action
from my experience with the saboteur it kinda bad
northern enemy can shrug off a head shot some time
i need something consistent

[bleak egret]

exactly

if im sniping

and it takes more than 1 headshot

that sniper is not so great™️

[fresh merlin]

so you want high rate of fire then

[bleak egret]

for a dmr, somewhat. for a sniper, not necessarily

[graceful iron]

if a sniper doesnt one shot headshot its just bad, simple

[bleak egret]

look, if i want a high rof sniper ill just use my svds pmc

does 30 more dmg than saboteur

also

[hazy ridge]

you can role play it in raining night at limansk

[bleak egret]

dont need to, been there at day 2 or 3 with an SKS

[simple cipher]

any reason why the AnomalyDX11AVX.exe executable would just disappear after working perfectly fine?

[bleak egret]

hmm

the shortcut?

[hazy ridge]

maybe it stuck?
use task manager to force close it

[fresh merlin]

what I am thinking is that

[hazy ridge]

happen to me some time

[fresh merlin]

the federal round has the best crafting economy

[simple cipher]

its not stuck, it dissapeared completely

i restarted the pc

i've extracted the executable again but now i'm getting this

[fresh merlin]

if we can work around the limitations then it's my cheapo rifle

[bleak egret]

i guess? its used on like the worst sniper so it doesnt matter. its cheap for a reason

[fresh merlin]

is it subsonic? the game doesn't say

usually ammo details something is subsonic

[hazy ridge]

when i mean stuck it mean the task running unresponsively in the background
but anyway seem like a corrupted one

[fresh merlin]

real life wiki says it's supersonic

[simple cipher]

the dx10 version works fine

[bleak egret]

regardless if its sub or not, the gun is pretty trash. hey man do what cha want, you can use the plunger for both of us

[thin wagon]

Is there gillie suits and do they help you not be seen by enemies

I want a gillie suit

[bleak egret]

yes, but its useless

[thin wagon]

Oh

[graceful iron]

you can find them in stashes and you can loot them from stalkers north, but they are worse in protections and dont help with detection

[thin wagon]

Is there a mod I can add to make them useful?

[bleak egret]

if you want, you can use the disguise system

[thin wagon]

I would use that

[bleak egret]

but thats more for going disguised, more than going entirely undetected

[thin wagon]

Is it a mod?

[bleak egret]

no, its built in

[graceful iron]

there is a mod on moddb that overhauls ghillie suits but it makes them broken

[thin wagon]

Hm

[bleak egret]

#│📚manual message

[thin wagon]

What’s it called

[graceful iron]

you can try it i guess

[thin wagon]

Ok

[graceful iron]

search ghillie on moddb, not sure what exactly its called

[thin wagon]

Ok I will

Thanks

[runic oasis]

Is it normal that I'm able to sneak up to an enemy, interact with them, sell them my shit, shoot them in the head and take my stuff back off their dead bodies?

[graceful iron]

no, but depending on what they were or if they were bugged it can happen

was it a machine gun npc ?

[hazy ridge]

if you use the ghillie to sneak by outpost and stuff
just use the phantom artifact instead

but if you want that sniper vibe

prob use the mod

[runic oasis]

no a normal bandit standing around. It works every time afaik

[graceful iron]

even when you save and reload ?

[runic oasis]

I'll try that next time and report back

[bleak egret]

are you sure you are enemies? dont have a bandit disguise?

[runic oasis]

no I'm loner and I don't have a disguise currently

[bleak egret]

did you turn on invisible mode in debug?

[runic oasis]

I reloaded and I can still interact with them even if they aggro

[runic oasis]

no they can shoot at me. no debug on

[graceful iron]

you can interact with all npcs even if they are shooting you, thats normal

[runic oasis]

even trading?

[graceful iron]

yes thats just stalker npcs

but not shooting back is a problem

[runic oasis]

lol I never realised that in SoC ^^ its funny though

as long as they still try to kill me that's fine, thanks you two

[fresh merlin]

is there a problem with the VSSK

like is it subsonic or animations are bugged?

[graceful iron]

what animations ?

[fresh merlin]

nothing, I'm just checking if the gun has any problems

before I try to get it

[graceful iron]

not as far as i know, no issues

[granite tundra]

Question. What weight counts as "traveling light" for endurance ? White weight bar ?

[fresh merlin]

yep

so SVDS PMC and VSSK AP rounds have the same price per bullet?

[graceful iron]

never looked at their prices, you could just check yourself

[fresh merlin]

even though VSSK rounds do much more damage

yeah I just checked

I was wondering what's the catch

[graceful iron]

look at their stats and ballistics, you already have the answer

[willow hawk]

I'm pretty sure 7.62x54r AP is more expensive to craft and buy

Since it has better penetration at range

And is easier to use

12.7x55 is subsonic

[fresh merlin]

I see. ammo details don't say it's subsonic

real life wiki does

[mortal flame]

i stopped using vssk for long range because it feels kinda... weird. tracer looks like it should hit, but the actual bullet hits the ground. Maybe it was only for me, but still

[bleak egret]

just use a barret

does more dmg, can still be silenced, has better rof, has better clip

same ammo

[fresh merlin]

can we fix DS Arms Fal upgrade kits so that it has variable zoom

[gloomy rose]

I think it is the same problem like all upgrade kits, that the variable zoom is not possible, when you can flip the gun to a canted sight 😦

If the Specter RMR Kit would give a variable zoom on the Specter, that would be awesome

[fresh merlin]

Someone mentioned using a config file

[stoic moth]

Yeah you have to go into the file of the weapon and just turn it on lol

[sullen valve]

Is it natural that the WP 4x scopes usually take up a lot of screen space?

[bleak egret]

yup

gigantor

[sullen valve]

Looks so ugly compared to the chad nato scopes

My favorite wp scope is the otp-7

[stoic moth]

Yes

Literally search for that on moddb

You can probably find the link in addon suggestions

It depends what the mod is. I use first person death and it's fine

[sullen valve]

Is there a an actual use for the laser sights in this game other than visual aesthetics? Seems odd that I have this big add on on the ak74u-tactical and ak74- bread if I can’t use any of it

I usually add the folder to the same designation as the modpack and choose to enable it via mo2

That’s how I did it for the bullet casing falling sound

[stoic moth]

Hold the torch button when you have a gun with a laser and it'll turn on a laser pointer

The flashlights don't work

[sullen valve]

Ohhhhhhhh

I didn’t know that

[graceful iron]

#│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[sullen valve]

Fug, ima try it when I get home

Ty fren

[stoic moth]

[fresh merlin]

darn

hera has like no recoil

Does the Hera have better recoil control than m4 tactical?

Now i want to view the recoil stats of a gun

Where do we go for that

[graceful iron]

the ASH12 is the only gun that cant toggle its laser

[bleak egret]

its so powerful it doesnt obey orders

[fresh merlin]

for the hera, between upgrading handling and upgrading recoil, which would be nicer?

[bleak egret]

recoil is how far the reticule expands between shots, handling is how fast the reticule returns to its most accurate point

so handling is more important for rapid fire weapons generally

though balancing the two has mostly been my strat

[fresh merlin]

yeah it seems subtle

[simple cipher]

does sleeping heal anything? i noticed something of the sort, but it didnt seem consistent

[bleak egret]

yes

especially good to sleep with a healing artifact equipped

[simple cipher]

does it heal limbs?

[bleak egret]

it does not, but sleeping heals limbs anyways

[simple cipher]

yeah, i was talking about sleeping

[bleak egret]

so you got free limb healing from sleeping, and free main healing from artifact

[fresh merlin]

Heal only limbs

[simple cipher]

oh yay, great

thanks

[simple cipher]

what exactly are the differences between the progression difficulties?

[calm tangle]

You can look for yourself if you load the game with the difficulty, and Settings -> Progression Settings

Its very customizable but, its mostly sliders, like how much money you earn, how much goodwill you earn, gun degradation, etc.

[versed dune]

I have maybe 15 or so addons for Anomaly 1.5.1, do I need to delete or uninstall them before I download Gamma?

[static osprey]

After turning on some mods in mod organiser i get crash after starting new game with no crashdums

[vestal tide]

You need clean install Anomaly 1.5.1 then download Gamma

[rose stump]

So I tried to open my game, but it immediately crashed, I went to the logs and it says this:

Am not good with computers so any assistance is appreciated

[brisk zinc]

I really need to make a #╭📖faq on this one

[brisk zinc]

How many mods do you have active?

[rose stump]

292

[brisk zinc]

Okay

Check mod 76

Red cross? Grey?

[rose stump]

Number 76 is marked as BAS patch and normal BAS

Neither have any red crosses

[brisk zinc]

Okay

Normal BAS

Right click on it, Open in explorer

Right click in the folder, Properties

Take a pic of the weight and send it here

After this I'll seriously write a #╭📖faq on this one because I'm tired of saying the same stuff

[rose stump]

Sorry man

[brisk zinc]

Nah don't worry

It's not your fault, obviously

[rose stump]

So this is the size

[brisk zinc]

I blame Moddb

Here comes the fixing part

[rose stump]

So manually download?

Aye, got it

[brisk zinc]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/boomsticks-and-sharpsticks

Here's the link

[rose stump]

Thanks

[brisk zinc]

Now I'll wrote the fixing part (that at this point will go inside #╭📖faq)

In the mean time, download the mod

[brisk zinc]

Adds animations in the game for the FDDA mod

Don't enable it

It's disable for reasons

Reasons = bugs, problems, crashes

Don't enable anything that is under GAMMA Disabled

@rose stump pinging you just to be sure

1. Open your GAMMA folder
2. Open your "downloads" folder you can find in there
3. Search for "Boomsticks_and_Sharpsticks_28-Nov-2021_1.5.1.rar" and delete it
4. Paste in here your downloaded zip
5. Open your installer with admin rights
6. Update GAMMA data -> Complete GAMMA installation

Can I sell the military documents from Agroprom Underground to Barkeep? Do they have any other use?

what is the reasoning behind making kar98 less powerful than other bolt action rifles

How can I fix the last part of my armor if I don't have a replacement?

I can't use repair kit to maintain parts for some reason

[graceful iron]

just repair the armor itself using any repair item

armor repair is different from gun repair

#╭📖faq has a guide for each

[stoic moth]

Will disassemble always use the multitool in my bag or Is there any reason to carry grooming kits and Swiss knives?

[sullen valve]

When I use the laser sight on my weapon, there’s no battery I need to worry about right?

[brisk zinc]

No

[wise helm]

Does the modpack have shader presets?

[mortal flame]

there is mod for using ,,best disassembling tool'', and it's picking multitool first, just stash grooming kits and swiss knives for crafting

[strange ledge]

Is it normal to not find a single advanced tools after 40-50 stashes? Are the things you find tied to the progress of the main story?

[stoic moth]

You can craft one with 5 basics

[brisk zinc]

It's bad RNG, like real bad RNG

If you have 5 basic toolkits, you can craft one

[strange ledge]

I'll try that, thanks

[willow aspen]

God, how did you play the game for that long without giving up. I Pray you get one soon

[strange ledge]

I've been playing on low difficulty and been using the shotgun with the scope with slugs. Been quite fun so far.

[willow aspen]

LOW?! Wow thats... worse luck than I thought. I got an advanced after ~10 stashes on highest progression difficulty. I hope you atleast got some good equipment to make up for that luck

[stoic moth]

That's just rng

[strange ledge]

Wow i guess I got really unlucky

[brisk zinc]

Again, it's RNG

Not something related to difficulty from what I recall

[strange ledge]

I have progression difficulty on tourist, if you're wondering

I have so many weapons stashed but I can't use them coz they're all broken

Also does anyone know how to make subtitles appear again?

[tidal raft]

make subtitles appear again
What are you talking about?
Subtitles have never worked in Anomaly.

Not even in CoP as I recall.

[snow talon]

any way to switfly disable some of the most performance intensive shaders?

my PC auto-shuts off in Great Swamps after 10 minutes

or tune the graphics so they arent quite as demanding

[stoic moth]

#old-framerate-optimisation

[snow talon]

erry nice

[fresh merlin]

I'm constantly getting the problem that not all companions will fast travel with me

What's the deal here

[snow talon]

they might be set to wait here , or go to position

[fresh merlin]

No they are in follow mode

[snow talon]

hmm, so shaders werent the thing causing my PC to crash

I assume running in fullscreen compared to borderless is also preferable?

iam certain the shut-off is related to strain

[little needle]

If PC shuts off it's usually either power supply exceeded, or temperature. Run some graphs to check temps. Either way, the solution is to apply some kind of power limit. You can limit your GPU quite easily to force it to draw less power using MSI afterburner, or whatever amd program.

I play gamma with my GPU power limited to 50% and CPU set to 45w

[snow talon]

idk how to describe it
my screen turns black, GPU Fans go into Hyperspeed and thats it

have to manually shut off power

[little needle]

That might be a driver issue, or GPU power

My GPU used to do that when it didn't get enough power

[snow talon]

drivers are up to date on AMD GPU
So power I guezz

GPU usage is always 100% on task manager

[little needle]

Yea, try that as a first step. Unfortunately, I never solved the crashes with my old AMD GPU and my fix was to get a green one.

[snow talon]

GPU also gets hot

[little needle]

How hot are we talking? You can make temp graphs with certain programs and set them to auto save. I think hwmonitor pro (not paid) can do it

Then after your crash check the graphs

[willow aspen]

Sorry, but i couldnt find what I was looking for when I searched it up. The Shift key in gamma drops stuff, but the key interferes with another mod I have. is there anyway to change to key so something else like "v"?

[snow talon]

heat goes to 70-75C

Radeon RX Vega GPU

power is limited to 50% by default

Maybe I dont have enough wattage on the PSU

its 600w, which I assume is too low then lel

[astral wigeon]

what is the default texture resolution of the game?

[median lagoon]

do carbon steel plates stack? seems having just one I have maxed all my ballistic reistance. How is that possible? they give 10% ballistic res and armour and helmet combined give 61% resistance. The bar should not fill but go to 70% more or less. What gives?

[radiant summit]

lmao I was asking myself the same thing

Also another question: If I click on "Complete GAMMA installation", and it updates all of the addons, will it wipe my save or something?

[median lagoon]

no save are not wiped

complete will reset the game settings and the mcm settings

[dusty trout]

well, the escorting ecologists in Jupiter task is bugged
anyone know if I can fix it?

Tried something listed here earlier but it didn't work

[median lagoon]

"update addon only" instead will leave all the settings unchanged

[median lagoon]

follow this topic #╭📖faq message read guide (README) on how to find the task_id in order to complete the quest

[radiant summit]

Where was that option again?

I've never seen it, or at least I don't remember it

[dusty trout]

ty

[radiant summit]

Aight man, thanks

[radiant summit]

Alright I've fixed it; I did not realize when updating addons it reset all configurations. Issue was with the old ammo addon thingy not being in the setting I've left it before

[little needle]

600w is plenty. But check on how your supplemental power is working. You can have issues there if you use one cable, or two cables from the same rail.

[snow talon]

ima try again tomorrow, I do need to rest at 2am lmao
but thanks for teh help, undervolting should help with temperature

its shutting off post 75-78 degrees

so ima trythat

[little needle]

That's definitely a possible cause

[snow talon]

have a good night

turn on debug mode in anomaly launcher

enter the game through the launcher then exit then launch gamma

i did a complete reinstall. i then enabled YAWM. when i started a new game, EVERYTHING was textureless.

how do i fix that

[orchid wave]

If I run yet another winter mod, can I also run Cold System 0.6 and cozy campfires in Gamma?

[mild nexus]

Need Help fixing profile for gamma I disabled all the mods while in the profile and I haven't a clue on how to fix it even if I did have to enable them one-by-one I do not know what mods were enabled. Am I Fucked?

[bleak egret]

just run the gamma installer, hit update gamma button, wait for it to finish, then hit complete installation button and wait for it to finish. np

[mild nexus]

Thanks Man That's a huge help

[final flume]

Hey guys is it possible to install other reshade presets on top of this?

The one it comes with is too desaturated for my tastes and I cant really find any setting that helps with it

[outer obsidian]

Getting a fair bit of fps drop around groups of NPCs notably in Rostok and Yanov with ZCP settings on default

[jagged lance]

throw a couple grenades to thin the herd 👍

[half field]

what is this and do i have to install it?

[jagged lance]

dont worry about it

just means theres an update available but you dont have to get it

[half field]

okay for sure. is it worth it though? if it makes the game more stable/look better and isnt too hard to install i dont mind doing it

[jagged lance]

probably wont notice anything if you dont change stuff in reshade

like i said i wouldnt worry about it

[half field]

sweet thanks fam!

[jagged lance]

no worries homie

[rose stump]

Okay so, I deleted the normal BAS mod and downloaded the new one so I am no longer missing the 'wpn_k98_mod_silen98'

But when I do a complete GAMMA installation the installer keeps using the old version, do I have to delete the mod file too?

[burnt topaz]

hmmm
Its me or the game is darker on dx8?
i disabled all shaders
is this the problem?

[fresh merlin]

how well would AP slugs perform against end game exo enemies ? how many rounds to the body to kill?

[willow hawk]

Quite the amount if you talk about Nosorogs

I think 5 or so

Against regular exos I think it's about 3 ?

[fresh merlin]

and it's just BR4.... would it be better to invest in SVDS PMC 7N14 rounds which are also BR4 ?

also perform better at range I guess

[queen dock]

is anyone familiar if the duty expansion mod is compatible with gamma or already in?

[jagged lance]

good addons with bugs i think the headers called

can use the search function on the bottom of mo2 to find it

[queen dock]

aye you right, thanks :)

[jagged lance]

np brother

[ancient oak]

@willow hawk You planning to mod for S2? Excited or worried?

[fresh merlin]

by endgame what's the most convenient way to gain money for AP ammo?

artefact hunting?

[jagged lance]

youll find out when you reach endgame

[fresh merlin]

that's not an answer is it ? maybe I should ask when you have access to exo armors and all the weapons in the game already

[thick pawn]

Hey guys, every other area in the whole zone runs perfectly smooth for me but Great Swamps causes constant consistent stuttering and low FPS, any ideas of what i can do? i have not touched populations or anything in any mods or settings its default. ive already followed the steps of #old-framerate-optimisation but it changes nothing in great swamps only.

[jagged lance]

youll find the answer yourself bro

dont stress

[fresh merlin]

I mean right now

maybe i should say late or mid game

[jagged lance]

only use AP when you really need it

[fresh merlin]

which is like always

[jagged lance]

eh

[fresh merlin]

I am constantly getting ambushed by bounty squads with exos

[plush wharf]

In late game, the massive swarms of unisg and sin have a load of attachments on their weapons

selling those are a very time efficient way to fund your ammo needs

[fresh merlin]

ok sell to beard scopes and grenades

[plush wharf]

Beyond this, mutant parts are always nice at butcher all game long

[fresh merlin]

yeah, or keep for quests

shouldn't artefact hunting be a really good gold source?

[plush wharf]

And finally a way to save ammo is to have multiple guns on standby with different ammo types

[jagged lance]

disassembling other ammo should be enough to keep you stocked for AP

[charred glen]

wait, I'm able to trade with xenotech as a bandit.... is that intended ?

[plush wharf]

It's good but if youre crafting artefacts, most of them get used as fuel or components

[jagged lance]

you in disguise?

[twilit yoke]

hi people

need some help

i cant see my pds

pda

[charred glen]

nope, that's why it's weird. Tho regular free stalker shoot me

[jagged lance]

xenotech or loris

[twilit yoke]

i binded but it still doesnt show

ingame

[charred glen]

both, I can trade with both actually

[queen dock]

when i reload to saves it crashes, anyone know why?

[jagged lance]

is it equipped?

i think grok mightve removed the mod that makes xenotech defend cordon

[plush wharf]

Your crash log might

[twilit yoke]

i will check it

ty

[charred glen]

Yep, I saw that change in updates, but would it make him friendly ? 🤔

[jagged lance]

yes

[charred glen]

that's a bit weird then, I mean I can ignore it on my side, but bandit shouldn't be able to trade with free stalkers.. ^^ (guess I post that in feedback then ?)

[jagged lance]

yeah i guess

idk how traders work with relation

because some of them are hostile to enemy factions and some arent

like butcher in garbage isnt hostile to anyone

[queen dock]

im having like a feint glowing of colors on my screen like an overall hue, also like a blurriness that comes in but i have nothing wrong with me

[willow hawk]

I'm planning to mod it indeed. Excited mostly. But I'm worried about how the modding community will evolve

[little needle]

What's concerning? I'm curious to hear the inside take

[jagged lance]

modding community will turn into skyrim reddit coomer cringe

[astral wigeon]

yes

[willow hawk]

I fear paid addons and shit like this

like what's happening in the FO4 community

[jagged lance]

fo4 has a modding community??

[willow hawk]

lol yes indeed

[jagged lance]

thought they all went back to skyrim

[fresh merlin]

Why don't enemies use mines?

[jagged lance]

because itd be hard to write for the ai

plus getting killed because of a mine you couldnt see would suck bum

[fresh merlin]

Muh realism

[grand canopy]

Do I need to attack the Ecologist psi-helmet to something or does just having it my inventory mean that it's good enough?

[dark pine]

2nd

[grand canopy]

Awesome, thanks.

[simple cipher]

hello, any way to change the amount of starting points on survivalist difficulty?

actually, a better question is: do you guys use different progression settings, or just the 3 default presets?

[fresh merlin]

You can tweak to your own taste

But i think the intended experience is from the presets

[uneven prism]

What would be the best texture pack

I'm looking and it looks like expedition, but is it compatible with gamma?

[fresh merlin]

Expedition sucks.

[uneven prism]

Whats the best texture pack then

I'm looking for 2k or 4k

[visual flicker]

Is there a limit on number of custom keybindings?
I installed slow motion mod, noticed some custom keybindings missing (like quick melee), I added lines to ui_keybindings.xml in all mods that had them and changed slow motions custom keybind from nr 25 to 26 (since in gamma 25 is kb_scope)

Now I can't enter settings menu in game menu

Halp!

[visual flicker]

Alright, so apparently there is upper limit to amount of keybinds. At least it seems so. custom25 is the highest. I think gamma is not using custom21 for anything, so its a freel keybind estate

[stoic moth]

You didn't need to change them all, just the one in the mod that loads last. You'd need to Merge all the changes into that. Whatever mod touched ui_keybindings last probably already had them merged to vmbegin with

[visual flicker]

Yea, I figured it out, but when it was not working I wasn't sure. Anyway the issue was that I went with custom26

[fierce smelt]

How do you use the dynamic zoom on scopes? I can't seem to work it out and I don't see a keybind either in game nor in the keybinds help section

[slow fox]

may be im a bit slow but i dont think ive seen stolichnaya vodka? i know there is nemiroff and putinka but stolichnaya?

[graceful iron]

not all scopes have variable zoom but if they do you can use the scroll wheel

[graceful iron]

there are 2 other vodka types

[jagged lance]

stolichnaya is in the flask with the fabric around it

[fierce smelt]

I'll try that out later (Can't believe that it was the one thing I didn't try smh)
Thanks!

[limber sorrel]

Expedition isn’t even a texture pack, it’s just a soup of shaders and reshape

Your best bet is probably GTR but it’s in beta and incomplete

[astral wigeon]

if I put my stuff in this stash at the freedom base with the medic is it safe? or do NPCs yoink it?

[graceful iron]

#│📚manual you can put your stuff in any stash

[echo patrol]

if i install another reshade, should i put the gamedata files at the bottom and let them overwrite the weather/lens flare/ other visual mods or should i put it next to where the (disabled) aggressor reshade files are

[stoic moth]

i put my reshades in the reshade section without any issue

[dense moss]

Um help my game keeps crashing each time i load in another place

[echo patrol]

thnx, also, where can i turn off the voice that says "i need to patch myself up" etc when injured

[dense moss]

Wait there's something like that?

[dense moss]

Nvm i found it

[simple cipher]

if you create your own stash, does it appear on the pda map?

[jagged lance]

yes

only if its a backpack stash though

dont think you can mark stashes that are already ingame

[simple cipher]

yeah, that's what i meant

thanks

[simple cipher]

as you can see, you can also create your own stashes wherever you want, and they'll also show up on the map

[slow fox]

At which supply level do traders sell basic ballistic plates?

[mystic finch]

Yeah they aren't working for me either I have traders at supply lvl 4 still no kevlar plates

[slow fox]

So there isnt a way to buy them right now?

[snow talon]

Is thete a clean way to play gamma with arzsis radiation overhaul

Dont really like death by rads and vodka being an op anti-rad
Prefer my stamina getting nuked by rads instead

[median lagoon]

stolichnaya it's very rare from loot drops but traders sells it if I am not mistaken, quite pricey though

to get the latest updates do we need complete install or just update addons?

[jagged lance]

#╭📖faq message

[median lagoon]

ty I do know that, I was referring to today update #📢development message

[ornate salmon]

always do a complete install when grok says so

otherwise, not really needed

[mystic finch]

so why aren't vendors selling kevlar plates at all even though I have some at supply level 4?

[slow fox]

How do i “upgrade” an artefact using the Bat?

Also, which one do i need to trabsmute to get a flash?

[graceful iron]

have both in your inventory and right click on the artefact you want to upgrade and click transmute

[slow fox]

Where can i find the tiers of artefacts n stuff?

Is there perhaps a list

Im trying to transmute a flash from a moonlight but no success

[stoic moth]

Did you update recently? Also have you waited a day in game?

[mystic finch]

I updated ages ago when the initial update came out it has been days in game

not a single kevlar plate I only find them on mercs so far

[slow fox]

Same issue here. Updated couple hours ago

[stoic moth]

Odd. I did the update midgame and got them in trader inventory on the next refresh

[mystic finch]

Petrovich is supply level 3 he still won't sell them

[slow fox]

How does one “upgrade” with the bat? It says there are two activities the Bat can do, transmute And upgrade.

[mystic finch]

I haven't tested eco but I'm not even close to supply lvl 2 with them

Supply level?

[stoic moth]

I had them at 5, so it's possible they only sell them at 5

[mystic finch]

the update said it was meant to be tier 2 traders doesn't that mean supply lvl 2?

[slow fox]

Kind of late to give plates at supply level 5

[stoic moth]

Hmm I'm really not sure then. What traders are you looking at?

[sour seal]

any idea where to find the conspiracy documents in lab x16?

[sour seal]

searched around a bit and i found that it is possible to sell the document?

i thought it was a different document than the one that can be sold

[brisk zinc]

IIRC so I can be wrong

Documents can be selled

You have quests documents and sellable documents

[primal condor]

I’m doing the last dawn storyline but Scar didn’t spawn in Zaton… I saw that he should normally be at the substation but he’s not there and there’s monolith/ISG, how can I find him/fix this?

[jolly spire]

HI,ANYONE know how to play gamma with mag redux

or anomaly magazine

[primal condor]

it's too buggy to work properly iirc so you shouldn't

[jolly spire]

i see someone playwith magizines,what is the version or another magazine mod ?

[stoic moth]

It's not that buggy though? I've been playing with it just fine

[primal condor]

oh well in that case i would like to know too

[jolly spire]

can u send the link mod

[stoic moth]

Just enable it under the optional mods. it come preloaded with gamma

[jolly spire]

i dont see in the mod list

[primal condor]

what load order do you use then because when i did i couldnt reload with any weapons

[stoic moth]

it's #207 on the list. i left it there and it works perfectly

i have a few extra mods ive added to it though

[jolly spire]

oh,i see it

[stoic moth]

theres a few mods in #🖇old-mods-posting too if you use mags

[whole sapphire]

Just did a clean reinstall both anomaly & gamma. And I get this :
FATAL ERROR

[error]Expression : <no expression>

[plush wharf]

How many active mods do you have?

[whole sapphire]

290

[plush wharf]

Should have 292, did you disable any?

[whole sapphire]

nope

[plush wharf]

Try an install from a different mirror.

[whole sapphire]

Didnt touch a single one

Should I delete something or straight up install from different mirror

[plush wharf]

No need to delete

[whole sapphire]

aight ill try

complete gamma or only install addons

[plush wharf]

You can do a complete install, but be wary of being flagged as a bot as it sends like 200+ requests to moddb

i.e., be careful if youve done several complete installs recently

[visual flicker]

Where are the helicopters?

[plush wharf]

Theyre hiding in the settings menu'

[primal condor]

how can i find the name of a smart terrain?

(trying to figure out the name for the substation workshop in zaton but idk how to see the code name)

[whole sapphire]

Ummm, so I did what u said, now i have 292 mods active but they are all marked with the red X flag

[plush wharf]

Might be flagged. Can you visit the website successfully?

[whole sapphire]

Oh ye iam flagged 😦

[plush wharf]

So, your options now are waiting (I don't actually know how long because Ive never been flagged)

or you can use a VPN

which will let you perform a complete install

[whole sapphire]

so it will work after the ''timeout'' yeah?

[plush wharf]

Presumably, do they provide you with a timeout option?

[whole sapphire]

It says 25min

[plush wharf]

Fair enough, but the VPN is always an option

[whole sapphire]

Aight, hopefully it'll be aight after that, ty ty

[plush wharf]

I believe #old-only-installer-support has a free one pinned but I've never used it

[sour seal]

does this mean that quest documents shouldn't be able to be sold?

[brisk zinc]

I guess so

[sour seal]

hmmm. im pretty sure i sold a doc from lab x16 so there must be another document in there?

since quest indicator still active for finding the doc

[brisk zinc]

Yeah it could be

What lab is that?

The brain scorcher?

[sour seal]

miracle machine next to yantar

[bleak egret]

Could also have stashed it. Some quest items can be stashed, annoyingly.

[sour seal]

pretty sure i haven't stashed any doc

[brisk zinc]

Hm okay I don't remember that one, I remember the brain scorcher because the document is literally in front of you inside a dead end

[plush wharf]

What's your quest objective ?

[sour seal]

the lab where you pull 3-4 levers with the annoying alarm

[bleak egret]

the document is at the end, where all the caged rooms are before you drop down into the Sewer of Death™️

its in one of the lil caged rooms

[sour seal]

yeah im pretty sure i picked that up

and sold it

[brisk zinc]

That's the brain scorcher

[bleak egret]

no, thats the MM, the brain scorcher is in radar?

[plush wharf]

Nope, that's miracle machine

[brisk zinc]

Fuck me then

[sour seal]

brain scorcher is the timed lab

[bleak egret]

😮

[primal condor]

does seriously nobody know why scar isnt spawning with the last dawn story line 😭 im begging here

[brisk zinc]

There is a fucking brain there

Call it brain scorcher, no Miracle Machine

[plush wharf]

that brain hasnt been scorched

[bleak egret]

LOL yes

[sour seal]

investigate labx16 in search for hard evidence of conspiracy

[plush wharf]

Yeah, revisit the lab, and look at the very center of the floor right before you drop into the giant underground tunnel

[sour seal]

already revisited it and did a clean sweep

i know the end place where the controller usually spawns in vanilla

[plush wharf]

If it's 100% not there, you'll have to look up the commands to complete the quest with debug

[sour seal]

2nd time in lab now because first run i deactivated the MM and got the doc

[plush wharf]

if you're going for invictus sorry for you loss

[sour seal]

not going for invitus so its fine

i guess im off to debug

maybe i try to spawn the doc to see if its the same one the quest is looking for

and if it really can be sold (again)

[plush wharf]

I'm fairly sure spawning it wont work, but give it a shot before trying quest complete commands

[sour seal]

[sick fable]

Couple mods appear to be missing from EU mirrors, namely monster unstucker and DLTX_MiniMod_Pack, resulting in errors during installation

[brisk zinc]

Try with other mirrors then

I don't see the question

[sick fable]

I am, just reporting the issue

Not sure which channel to put it in

[bleak egret]

i thought monster unstucker was removed for being useless

[brisk zinc]

It is

Disabled

GAMMA is still a beta, in 1.0 Grok will (hopefully) remove everything not used by GAMMA officially

[bleak egret]

aye

[brisk zinc]

Already known problem, reported many times, just change mirrors

[whole sapphire]

292 mods installed sucesfully and I get the same fatal error (af_ah_h2)

[plush wharf]

any red Xs in your load order?

[brisk zinc]

I love Discord that doesn't let me search for that damn error

I can't even help

[plush wharf]

Also, did you switch mirrors?

[brisk zinc]

I've seen that error at least 20 times and every time I don't remember the problem

[whole sapphire]

Yes I did, and I have few Xs

[brisk zinc]

@graceful iron help me out here

[whole sapphire]

[plush wharf]

Which mirror did you use?

[whole sapphire]

126

[plush wharf]

which mods have an X?

[whole sapphire]

193, 196, 197, 242, 54

[brisk zinc]

Probably those mods are missing on that mirror

I always use the 125, never had a problem with it

[whole sapphire]

I switched from 125 to 126. 125 didnt work so ive tried 126 now and its the same

[plush wharf]

Yeah this is an install issue, youre missing files. Not sure why

[whole sapphire]

[plush wharf]

the good news is you havent run out of mirrors yet

[drowsy light]

getting an error when doing complete installation ;
Could not find a part of the path
C:\Games\Anomaly\gamedata\configs\cache_dbg.ltx

Is this fine or will i have to fix something?

[graceful iron]

do a complete installation with a US mirror, dltx minimod has been updated with no EU mirrors yet

EU are 125 and 126

[little needle]

What I've learned is, if my installer black command line window shows anything, I'm fucked.

In this case, it showed me the failed dltx pack download
