[mild trout]

i mean, i have access to both Duty and Freedom traders

i see

[willow hawk]

5.56 is better imo

But 5.45 is easier to find

[mild trout]

it's either one or the other

[willow hawk]

And 7.62x39 or 9x39 are better than 5.56

[mild trout]

can't ever have enough ap ammo for 2 guns

for both calibers

no way

[drifting hearth]

Is the Interceptor worth repairing? I'm still rocking a Sunrise but found an Interceptor that's banged up

[hazy ridge]

I used to play with separate key to avoid the play animation repeatedly
And i thought that change is bad for me
Guess you make it work for real this time

[willow hawk]

Did you check the stats ?

[hazy ridge]

[willow hawk]

Yep yep if you don't use mags, there's no reason not to use my addon

Fixes and streamlines everything

And I don't recommend mags anyways

[stoic moth]

What's the best for sin now? High cal AP?

[hazy ridge]

Used to be mags fan
Untill it no longer compatible with everything
Too hassle to make it work now

At least 1 less problem to worry about when playing the game

[primal condor]

iirc Sin is going to be changed so that the focus is on destroying their armor instead of their health, so im guessing some AP is the best way to go

not sure tho

[drifting hearth]

Oh right, I forgot there was a spreadsheet

[primal condor]

alternatively, you can take their name literally and cleanse their sins with the fires of the holy spirit (RPG-7)

[frigid stream]

Hey, is this playable with BAS disabled, or does it affect too much to toggle it off?

[bleak egret]

i would highly suggest not disabling it. im not even sure if you can, really. why do you want to?

[frigid stream]

Just don't like it too much, didn't realize it was integral to the modpack though

[bleak egret]

well, im fairly certain you can disable it, but youll need to disable many mods dependent on it

you can do so from MO, if you hove over BAS you can see its dependencies

also, are you sure its BAS that you dont like, and not some other mod doing something? theres nearly 300 mods

your issue might be with a mod thats easily disable able

[brisk zinc]

Nope

[bleak egret]

not anymore eh?

[brisk zinc]

Too much integral to the modpack like Lymetel said

[brisk zinc]

Never been from what I know

@graceful iron can you confirm?

[bleak egret]

#╟❓general-offtopic message

[brisk zinc]

https://tenor.com/view/will-smith-rewind-time-happy-gif-14810665

[bleak egret]

lol

[brisk zinc]

Apparently it's possible then

[bleak egret]

i doubt its worth it though

so much lost content if you disable

[graceful iron]

it can be disabled but its a really long process of finding and disabling patches/dependent addons

[brisk zinc]

It's clearly not worth it but to each their own, of course

[idle storm]

It surely would need a new game aswell. So any progress made is for nothing.

[brisk zinc]

@frigid stream you can

[bleak egret]

OH, wait. SVDS PMC is a bas weapon

for sure he shouldnt disable it

[tough socket]

how do I "repair" artifacts that aren't damaged?

i turned off artifact conditions but I still can't sell them

because they are too damaged

[analog marsh]

what's the easiest way to get access to a free workshop, starting as a loner? just clearing out the bandit depot at the Garbage?

[brisk zinc]

#╭📖faq message
I think you can empower them, never used the thing till now

[bleak egret]

free one in truck cemetary if you kill bandits

[idle storm]

That isnt easy tho

[idle storm]

and they respawn

[tough socket]

yeah I read that but I thought I disabled it by disabling the condition bar

in the MCM

[analog marsh]

I forgot, which area is that?

[analog marsh]

was always easy enough in vanilla Anomaly

[idle storm]

At 60% height on the very right, a huge place

[bleak egret]

north of darkscape, east of rostok

[idle storm]

looks like a huge parking lot

[analog marsh]

oh thx

[bleak egret]

im pretty sure in GAMMA you still need basic tools though

which renders your quest for a workshop meaningless, since in GAMMA tools ARE workshops

[analog marsh]

ah right

[bleak egret]

[frigid stream]

Tried disabling every addon related to BAS but it doesn't seem to want to launch without it, no obvious error message either, oh well.

[idle storm]

just sleep with the mod maker and let him make you a MCM to disable parts you dont like while still being able to play the modpack gamma.

easy as that

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[civic wharf]

You can't have more than one "guide" quest at a time? Can I change that value somewhere?

[sudden egret]

did the price of yadulin go up

In a recent update or something

[frigid stream]

that's fine but maybe the author should put a small disclaimer somewhere BAS is heavily integrated and the pack wont really function without it

[idle storm]

true, but just our of curiosity, what dont you like about the mod?

[bleak egret]

well, thats kinda weird tbh. with that logic he should have to make like 40 disclaimers

for the many many many integrated mods

[idle storm]

well its called gaMma

the 1st M would justify that disclaimer

[frigid stream]

the guns feel just a tiny bit too tacticool and high poly/good looking, just a personal preference

[bleak egret]

thats only for the BAS weapons

theres a lot that are not BAS

[frigid stream]

yeah but you can immediately pick the BAS guns apart

[bleak egret]

well, there is a list in #│📚manual if youd like

bit of a stopgap measure

but its better than nothing i spose

[sick latch]

Do enemies spawned as quest targets not follow normal loadout rules? Just had 2 bandits out of 4 in an interdict mission show up with sv98s, in cordon on day 1.

[sick viper]

Guys, What am I doing wrong here? Tried to turn core 0 off. X-ray monolith engine doesn't respond after launch, can't get to Anomaly's main menu.

[stoic moth]

Check the arguments again

[drowsy light]

anyone know why there would be a white glowing circle ring under my character when i jump etc?

[magic reef]

kevlar plates and attachments is it craftable or buyable?

[brisk zinc]

The base one is buyable

[magic reef]

not at xenotech

i have to give him advanced kit first?

[brisk zinc]

Traders I think

Not technicians

[magic reef]

aha thanks

[brisk zinc]

You need 500 goodwill IIRC

[magic reef]

so at sid?

[brisk zinc]

Yeah try him

[sick viper]

Can't see anything wrong there. Prefixes, path - everything looks fine for my eyes

[fresh merlin]

no....

[north turret]

Maybe change / with this \ ?

Copy and paste this in the arguments

%ComSpec% /C Start /High /Affinity 0000000000000FFE E:\Anomaly\Anomaly-1.5.1.2\bin\AnomalyDX11AVX.exe

[sick viper]

Did that and nope. The path itself seems fine, because it launches x-ray engine. But it can't start anomaly process itself.

Core 0 is disabled though, so this part seems working too

[north turret]

Hmm weird

[daring sinew]

Hello, guys, is there any way to fix this problem (cannot select food in the crafting menu)? I'm using Field Cooking Kit near lit campfire

As far as I remember I had the same problem in vanilla anomaly

[muted spindle]

historic kit can be only found?

[graceful iron]

you can only craft and buy repair kits

[graceful iron]

save/load ?

[muted spindle]

so no luck for me, desperately looking for historic kit 😄

[graceful iron]

get a toolkit from stashes and then craft it #│📚manual or see the manual in your pda

[ornate maple]

Can anyone spare a sec and tell me how I should be interpretting the conflicts in MO? Like, should I be more concerned if a selected addon has a conflict with an addon that's loaded after (or before) it? I'm just struggling with how to interpret the information I'm seeing here

[dense moss]

uh guys

isnt it supposed to be 290 mods?

or its actually 263?

[bleak egret]

Hello there stalkers, I have a problem when entering Great Swamps zone, everything else works great and I have FPS from 80-120 but when I enter Swamps it drops to 15-30 for some reason and I'm unable to finish quests there because I can't fight like that, anyone else have the same problem, how do I fix this? Thanks in advance.

[dense moss]

well mine just went to 263

and not each time i load the game it crashes

and saw this

[plush wharf]

Since great swamps is very large with a lot of objects, you can try reducing draw distance for: grass, world objects, etc in the settings

[plush wharf]

If your total # of mods after install doesn't match #📍577-mods-in-mo2 then you need to troubleshoot

[dense moss]

well its not after install its just after restart of computer but how do i trouble shoot?

[plush wharf]

You're saying your mod count went from 295 to 263 after restarting your computer?

[dense moss]

ye

[plush wharf]

You'll have to reinstall

[dense moss]

oof

[plush wharf]

ensure to consult #╭📖faq

[dense moss]

alright thanks ill just reinstall again but it wont remove my game saves right?

[plush wharf]

Right, but backup your user ltx

for your settings

[dense moss]

um where should i find that 😅

[north turret]

In your Anomaly directory

Open your Anomaly game folder then open appdata then you will be able to find your user.ltx

[dense moss]

ooh alright thanks!

[north turret]

You're welcome

[north turret]

thanks, it did help a little bit, at least to make it playable to finish quests, thanks!

[sick viper]

Hey, have you solved your core 0 issue?

[civic wharf]

nope, but my game was crashing so heavily because of Reshade

[mortal trout]

Ayo I saw theres a Weapon inspect mod, how can i inspect my weapons

[gilded jay]

double tap f

[past elk]

or z

[gilded jay]

[sleek rune]

it's disabled by default, think the addon in MO2 is called "inspection disabler" or something

[past elk]

disable on double f i think

[sleek rune]

i've reenabled it before but most weapons are missing inspections anyway so meh

[grand willow]

So I tried to do some research but I couldnt find anything and its been so long since I played through base anomaly I honestly dont remember which quests are part of it and which arent so my question is which quest is Mysteries of the Zone and should I enable it since Grok decided to disable it by default?

[bleak egret]

its the questline to reveal a conspiracy in the zone. have to go to a buncha labs and snag documents

it breaks half the time and slathers your pda with 5 main quest markers

[graceful iron]

and the ending is just the ending from one of the original games, nothing new

[grand willow]

Ok I know what quest it is now. Appreciate it

[errant whale]

With any update can I still use old saves or do I have to start new?

[north turret]

You can still use old saves

[errant whale]

Nice, I'm use to skyrim mods that have incompatible updates

Is there a way to lower aim punch in this? the second my arm takes a scratch of damage i swing my sights like its a damn bola

[sleek rune]

the MCM

[north turret]

Which one controls it?

[sleek rune]

"body health system"

[north turret]

you are amazing

[sleek rune]

ik 😉

[north turret]

it was on 9, why is that default xD

[sleek rune]

thats for the threshold so if you want the effect to be less prevalent then lower the "power" setting

I have mine on 0.5 and it's good for me

only turn into an inflateable tube man when my arms are over halfway damaged

[north turret]

Got to say, this mod is absolutely mind boggling, been playing non-stop for a bit. made it so there are always mutant on the map so i never leave cordon 😄

[bleak egret]

[vernal wharf]

Hey so i'm having this issue "CRASHING ON TRANSITION OR FAST TRAVEL TO A CERTAIN LOCATION OR FROM A CERTAIN LOCATION" that the #╭📖faq has an answer but if i do the Delete common squads i lost a bunch of companions (my mules) and fail like 5 missions, but can travel to other locations
Is it the only way to solve it?

Also, i noticed that i have only 289 active mods, how can i check which i'm missing and install them. Or the lazy way, how can I re-install everything and see if it completely installs (and maybe solves other bugs?)

[bleak egret]

#💽how-to-update

[vernal wharf]

Now it says 288

Should i do a complete GAMMA Installation instad of Only Addons?

[bleak egret]

well, first make sure you have the latest installer

#📢announcements message

it has an MD5 option. and yea, i would do Update Gamma, then after its done, go for the Complete Installation

[vernal wharf]

I have de MD5, clicked it and it is checking everything, will try the complete install after!

[frigid tartan]

Is it possibile to turn off the 3d scopes?

[bleak egret]

its possible to not use them

[vernal wharf]

MD5 Check said everything is up-to-date and correctly installed...
So i'm doing a complete Install and after it finished it still says 288 Active Mods and notice thins in the cmd

Like, i think close to every mods says ERROR something

[bleak egret]

well

that doesnt sound good

you did hit Update Gamma first, right?

[vernal wharf]

Yep, Update GAMMA Data returns this
Checking current G.A.M.M.A. data version G.A.M.M.A. data are up-to-date!

Also the complete installation doesn't say anything about errors

[bleak egret]

might be that your mirror is borked

see if switching it helps

[vernal wharf]

And Mod Organizer has lots of mods with the X now..

Ok, will try

[dusky kite]

is there way to repair your legs?

[graceful iron]

[bleak egret]

#╭📖faq #│📚manual

ty

[graceful iron]

you used both back to back? you dont need the MD5 check if you are going to do a complete installation anyways

never use complete install or MD5 check(or both) more than once in a while, you could get flagged by moddb

what does the error say ?

[vernal wharf]

Done it like 6 times already...

[graceful iron]

check if you are flagged as a bot on moddb

[vernal wharf]

Yep, i am a bot 🤖

[graceful iron]

wait for an hour or use a vpn and then do a complete installation. run the installer as admin, update gamma data and complete gamma install

make sure you done everything correctly, if you didnt read #old-how-to, make sure to

[vernal wharf]

Ok, i will try to find a vpn and do it. Thanks!

[glacial prawn]

Hi all, does survival mode (zombie horde) not work with Gamma? I've got a good working install and have had no issues otherwise. I know Warfare mode isn't/wasn't compatible at my time of install but I don't remember seeing anything about survival mode.

I love you my dearest Stalker. Updated through a VPN (Update GAMMA Data and Complete Install, no errors appeared in the CMD window this time), I see 295 Active mods in Mod Organizer, and have only 2 marked with the X in Flags (3 if count a deactive one).

so are the labs like ... endgame content in gamma? Cuz i swear i cant get past the 2nd floor of x16 because that pesky poltergeist keeps 2 shotting me with wooden crates n shit lol

[queen torrent]

im a fucking idiot.. thanks for reminding me lmao

[mystic arrow]

Any tips on keeping hunger down?

[graceful iron]

eat cooked food #│📚manual

[queen torrent]

cooking for sure

[graceful iron]

better stats UI, dont just eat when the hunger icon appears

[queen torrent]

had to learn that as well, but man cooked food is just way better and rather easy to come by since you can make some fairly good mid tier food over a simple campfire and clean water

[mystic arrow]

Ooh thanks

I was eating canned beans but they literally did nothing

[queen torrent]

good tip the loading screen gave me "use bottled water for yourself because it weighs less and keep the canteens in your stash for cooking"

[queen torrent]

yeah .. mres are kinda the only good buyable food left and even that is not that great for what it costs

[mystic arrow]

Is there anything to do to make hunger go slower?

Without breaking the game lol

[graceful iron]

its already slow but taking medical items makes you hungry, but you end up with enough food or meat to cook, food wont be a problem

[mystic arrow]

Ooh okay thank yoy

What item post heals torso?

[sleek rune]

iirc Yinca, yadulin and fentanyl

[mystic arrow]

Ah thanks!

[tough socket]

i killed a loner and his body disappeared

[idle storm]

he ascended to godhood

[tough socket]

lmao

[idle storm]

or fell into the ground, try "demo_record 1" to fly down there if he was important

[tough socket]

but serious question

[queen torrent]

didnt you know? In gamma you play a holy stalker, with the fury of the righteus thee will smite the enemies of the zones and with your holy smite they shall ascent

[tough socket]

nope

[graceful iron]

you can stop with the jokes

[tough socket]

i clipped it because I'm not sure if I'm blind or if it literally disappeared

i'll post the gif once it's done encoding

[tough socket]

but it was on an open field and I searched the area afterwards

might've been a bug with death animations because this is the first time it has ever happened to me and I just enabled death animations

[idle storm]

maybe an ragdoll error and he literally flew away

yeah, sounds like an animation error

[tough socket]

yeah it disappeared

just watched the clip

[tough socket]

still encoding...

[north turret]

quick question

[mystic arrow]

How do compression bags work?

[north turret]

does stalker anomaly vanilla have mods to wepons like supressors and grips?

or do i need mods for that

[idle storm]

grips, no.

[north turret]

so what mods are there

can i see all of them availible?

[idle storm]

this mod pack also doesnt have costum grips.

[north turret]

so what mods are availible to guns ?

[idle storm]

and you can see all aviable weapon parts in the debug mode

[north turret]

what do i press?

[idle storm]

You have to enable it first.

[north turret]

i did

[idle storm]

It's a checkmark in the anomaly launcher

[north turret]

ya i did

[idle storm]

F7 then

[north turret]

now what

ok

[idle storm]

And then 1

[tough socket]

https://gfycat.com/scaredfluffyflies

[idle storm]

it sure looked like he fell into the ground

[tough socket]

so am I blind or correct?

I checked undeground though

hmmm

if it happens again i'll immediately check underground

[night tapir]

hey guys how do I turn off the sleeping system?

[vernal wharf]

question, does Sakharov only buy Artifacts above X% of efficiency?

[tough socket]

i think so

[queen torrent]

i dont think you can, but you can disable the "only sleep when youre tired function" so you can always play at your preffered day time

[idle storm]

sleeping pills exist

[floral salmon]

You can only sell them at high percentage. You cant get 100% artefacts without melting them using a kit.

[idle storm]

and so does caffeine and cocaine

[north turret]

another quick question

what does BAS add other then wepons

do they add wepon attatchments?

[night tapir]

how do I disable the only sleep when tired?

[idle storm]

BAS is one of the largest mods there are.

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

It not only adds guns and parts for them but also changes the gameplay

[north turret]

how does it change the game?

[night tapir]

how do I disable the only sleep when tired?

[north turret]

also just a personal question

does BAS make the game more easy?

or harder

[queen torrent]

dont know quite frankly, its a mod that much i know but youll have to find it in the modlist and just uncheck it

[idle storm]

neither afaik

[idle storm]

I think there is an option in the mod menu ingame

[north turret]

so it just adds wepons and ammao thats all >

?

[queen torrent]

coming from vanilla to gamma i have to say it makes it slightly harder at first until you understand it

[idle storm]

fair, it sure is more to understand

[north turret]

also is BAS compatable with MCM

[queen torrent]

cant just double barrel shotgun everyone out of existence

tried that, got my shit rocked hard by some military dude with a decent armor

[mystic arrow]

I'm sorry for asking so many questions but how do i diagnose my guy? Like he's losing health but doesn't seem to be bleeding og irradiated

[queen torrent]

tanked like 12 buckshot and refused to tie until he just had enough of my shit lmao

[idle storm]

Slug ammo is LIT tho!

[north turret]

s BAS compatable with MCM

[queen torrent]

slug and AP slug single handedly rekindled my love for shotguns

[idle storm]

sure you arent bleeding? have your limbs damage? hunger, thirst and sleep, are you overweight?

[queen torrent]

yes

[north turret]

ok so when i install it it should appear in mcm then ?

[mystic arrow]

Seem to be hungry but it's only on the 2nd bar, radiation on bar 2 too and I've used like 2-3 bandages

[idle storm]

the bar in the inventory is your resitance, not your level of radiation

[mystic arrow]

Oooh

[idle storm]

that is shown in the left hand lower corner of the screen

[queen torrent]

check the limbs, theres a difference between Post healing and first aid now. Different healing items to different things.
Get to know the most common ones and know the order
stop the bleeding. If hurt bad, use first aid, check your limbs theres a yellow bar filled now, that bar will deplete unless you use a post healing item such as ibu or ya(something something)

yadulin i think

[mystic arrow]

It's at 0

[queen torrent]

and different items favor different parts of the body

[queen torrent]

what is

[mystic arrow]

Ahh ok, my torso is really low

Radiation

So it's probably my chest

Cause he's breathing like crazy lol

[queen torrent]

ah yeah, i think standart button to check your rd is "8"

[idle storm]

thats it

[queen torrent]

it shows how much radiation you got in you

[idle storm]

you need some post heal then

[queen torrent]

gamma is tougher in that regard at 200 rads you start to take damage i think

[mystic arrow]

I suppose, hope I can get back in time lol

Thanks for the help

[graceful iron]

bas doesnt have mcm options

it adds guns, attachments, tactical kits and ammo

[graceful iron]

disable immersive sleep, fdda immersive sleep patch and gamma sleep balance

or just use sleeping pills

oh I got up I had to look at the ladder then spam spacebar

[mystic arrow]

It's fine to disable YACS on an existing save right?

In mo2

[lavish trail]

I can't get NV to work, I long hold N, the animation of a hand clicking the lamp appears, and I hear a click but everything stays the same

[knotty patrol]

Batteries?

[lavish trail]

Yeah, full batteries. I've tried adjusting the level by short pressing N, but there's no difference

[knotty patrol]

Hmm strange. Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?

[idle storm]

you sure its the right device in the first place?

[lavish trail]

lol

[lavish trail]

Yeah, it's night vision goggles. And it says at the bottom of the description to do the long press N to turn on. So it's got to be. And by double clicking it, it went straight to my headpiece section and replaced my headlamp.

I'm playing on DirectX8 (R1) If that helps

[idle storm]

uh, that might be a problem, could be the case that the NV is an advanced filter that just doesnt work in dx8

[lavish trail]

Okay, just brought it up to 10, see if that'll help

[idle storm]

Directx 8 was a thing back in windows 95 - xp after all

[knotty patrol]

FWIW they work for me on DX10, long hold N like you said 👍

[idle storm]

I think even 9 would work, but 8 is just the bare bones of what the engine could do.

[minor star]

IIRC gamma uses Beef's NVGs, according to the moddb page they won't really work with anything below DX10

I could be wrong tho, so don't take my word for it

[idle storm]

my thing was only a guess too since dx9 is somewhat modern.

dont take mine either

[austere mortar]

less of a gamma question, but does anyone know cumputers and know what loads npcs on their spawn?

[idle storm]

What?

[austere mortar]

what hardware component xd

[idle storm]

What do you mean with "what loads npcs on their spawn?"

Ah!

[lavish trail]

I forgot to tell you, it works now! Turns out I just had to up the DirectX

[idle storm]

Well, anything kinda.
Mostly your CPU it has to simulate their behaviour, your Hard Disc since it has to load all their models textures and what not and your RAM acts as usual temp buffer like normal.

Your GPU only if they are in your FoV (depending on the optimisation)

[austere mortar]

what would have the most impact, i guess ram to a lesser extent, cpu just loads some scripts which should be pretty fast (especially in c), so main suspect is disk?

[idle storm]

What is the problem?

[austere mortar]

just curious what is responsible for occasional freezes on object spawn

[idle storm]

I sometimes have to purge all common squads since they clogg the engine and can make any hardware lagg if there are just too many of them

[idle storm]

that is more of a problem with the call to IDs that is very hardly an engine limit, having the game on an SSD and running on a good CPU is all you can really do.

The first game is from back in 2007 and the production has I think started back in the late 90s so what Anomaly and GAMMA are doing is litteral magic!

[austere mortar]

its quite hard to believe that "call to IDs" is a reason here ;p

or anything related to engine scripts

[idle storm]

well you know the freeze when you open an inventory?

it's very much the same when spaning something with an inventory

afaik

[austere mortar]

this one is im sure is on gpu, since it happened to me when i used nonsensical uncompressed icons ;] default ones never do that
(same with 4k pda addon)

[idle storm]

im sure your gpu has no problem loading images

but your hard disk may

[austere mortar]

oh could be, i just wasnt sure if files like dds and ogfs are loaded straight from the disk and disk is responsible for that

[idle storm]

thats a good question tho!

source engine has a nice feature for laggs caused by this.

It has the option to load any may occurring sound and image / event on the loading screen, that surely increases the load time by up to 3x but laggs like those are gone.

(It can cause FPS problems tho when you dont have enogh headroom in terms of memory since everything is loaded all the time. It's more of a test feature or only usefull in small maps)

aaaanyways, you can open your task manager on your second screen to see what exactly is struggling.

[austere mortar]

i dont think theres some kind of cache for images ;p otherwise it will run out of ram very fast

[idle storm]

surely not in this engine.

stalker 2 will be unreal engine 5 btw.

i hope it wont suck as hard as the steam page makes it look like...

pre order quests and a 110€ price tag

[austere mortar]

looking at current (and last 5 years) games i wouldnt have my hopes high xd

[idle storm]

[red silo]

anywhere we can get a full feature list?

[idle storm]

#❗welcome puts it well together

this and all that anomaly does ofc.

gamma is more story and survival oriented than other mod packs and anomaly

looking at the mod list also helps to understand what is included imo https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/blob/main/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_data/modlist.txt

mods with G.A.M.M.A. as name are exclusive to this pack

[red silo]

Thanks broseph

[empty lava]

is anomalous bread worth using once you have an AAM

[trim bloom]

Unless it’s been changed it has no benefit whatsoever

Sell or keep it in a stash

[sour seal]

any hint as to where the lost signal main quest is for monolith in zaton?

and what exactly am i looking for with these type of quests? i never did any of this for sidequests

[soft leaf]

lost sigmal isn't a main quest

just tune in to the quest freq on the rf receiver and walk around the map

[sour seal]

it is for monolith

anyway, the quest just updated so maybe i stumbled upon it

[soft leaf]

maybe you got it through dr x

[sour seal]

it was from olivar

[latent crown]

how do i install #custom-textures
like where do i put the files, in anomaly's gamedata or where?

[brisk zinc]

In MO2

[north turret]

is there a mod that makes companions not die?

[willow hawk]

No

They are very tanky already

[north turret]

The chimera doesnt seem to think so :(, keeps oneshotting my escort

and the game's AI doesnt let them do anything but crouch in place xD

[willow hawk]

companions are easy mode already

can't make them even more broken sorry

if it was only me, there would be no companion

[north turret]

I never used companions in any of my play throughs. decided to do an escort mission and never realized the pain of holding their hand xD

[odd cape]

If I turn on debug mode in the anomaly startup screen will it cause any issues?

I cant find any tools and I need to spawn some in

[rare sluice]

No, I have it on without problems. Also tools are supposed to be hard to find

[odd cape]

I know, its just like... my luck is super bad

[strange ledge]

how do you get rid of a bugged quest ?

[odd cape]

And I cant find even basic tools

[odd cape]

Tell the person you got the quest from you cant do it

[rare sluice]

Get some nemiroff and give it to spirit. He'll give you tools instead of beril

[odd cape]

Alright, ima do that instead but also thanks for answering my question

[rare sluice]

With 5, you can craft advanced tools

[rare sluice]

No problem

[strange ledge]

the person I got it from doesn't remember he gave it to me

I'm asking how to delete a quest using the debug menu

[odd cape]

Oh I never had a bugged quest that bad

[odd cape]

Also just to make sure, if I turn on this setting with the arrow my game wont explode

Im just making sure cause I have had debug menu crashes with other mods

Such as dead air

[strange ledge]

it wont

[rare sluice]

I mean I have it on for testing mods. Just make sure you use the mo launcher instead of the anomaly launcher

[odd cape]

Yea I do use the mod organizer launcher, it just leads to the anomaly launcher

[eternal topaz]

is this mod repack compatible with EFP

[rare sluice]

You're using the wrong launcher then I think. @brisk zinc please confirm? Never mind we're good

[rare sluice]

No

[eternal topaz]

damn

[odd cape]

I click the gamma shortcut on my desktop, click run and then it goes to the anomaly startup menu

[strange ledge]

no he's probably just selected anomaly launcher instead of anomaly dx11-avx

change the dropdown option

[summer sandal]

would the next build of Anomaly or G.A.M.M.A be still potato friendly?

[rare sluice]

I was wrong

[odd cape]

So that is the right way?

I watched a guide on youtube and he did that

[fierce gulch]

It's almost the same process as efp.

[willow hawk]

I guess you don't understand the concept behind EFP and GAMMA lol

[fierce gulch]

When launching the game. Go to mod organizer (or shortcut) and then this will take you to the anomaly launcher, press start and the gamma moddpack will launch.

[willow hawk]

why would two modpacks be compatible with each other, they are two different things

[odd cape]

So I was right

Okay

[willow hawk]

I know Anomaly might drop DX8 and DX9 support at some point

[fierce gulch]

I mean, how else is it supposed to work?

[willow hawk]

because it's slowing down the shaders development process

[brisk zinc]

In MO2 you need to choose what DX you want to play with

[willow hawk]

@eternal topaz play EFP or play GAMMA. You can have GAMMA and EFP installed on the same machine indeed

[summer sandal]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-patrick-patrick-star-broke-poor-gif-14729256

i'm gonna have to get a new computer

[fierce gulch]

No need, I play on my 2004 laptop.

It works perfectly fine.

[summer sandal]

im playing on an acer that's not meant for gaming

[fierce gulch]

Neither is my 2004 laptop.

Anyway we should go to #╟❓general-offtopic

[storm shadow]

the bas weapons stats are weak lategame, is there an ez way to edit the dmg of guns from that mod?

[sour seal]

can i get artefacts melter as Monolith?

[slow fox]

Should be fine, just disguise

[fringe coral]

I feel like the hands textures in my game in my game are lower quality than in the preview images of thap rework. Is there a specific setting i need to turn up for them to look more crisp?

[strange ledge]

where do you find the code to open lab x-18?

[sour seal]

oh yes the disguise. i definitely do the disguise. i totally didnt forget there is a disguise system

[odd cape]

Oh I get it now, I was just using the anomaly launcher

So wait a second, If I choose for example dx11-avx, can I still use my current save? (Idk what the recomended DX is for this)

Cause nothing wrong per say has happened with me just using the anomaly launcher

Gamma runs just fine

[civic wharf]

it's just what graphics wrapper the game will use to render your game, has nothing to do with the save

[odd cape]

Ah got it! thanks

[civic wharf]

recommended is of course DX11-AVX because it supports the most effects but you can play on DX8 if you have a microwave and it will still run

[odd cape]

Oh I just went with Anomaly DX11 and not AVX

Should be fine

[brisk zinc]

Use AVX

It's recommended

[odd cape]

Alright, I will switch off normal DX11

[north turret]

I just installed GAMMA, and everything went well, but for some reason when I click "run" in MO2 it just starts up vanilla Anomaly. What did I do wrong?

[brisk zinc]

Use DX11 AVX

[north turret]

I just tried and it didn't work, do you have other suggestions?

[north turret]

Do you put in your correct Anomaly directory?

wdym? MO2 doesn't complain about a wrong instance portable, is that what you mean?

Hmm

Yea you're right

[visual goblet]

something happened to the mechanic and cook in Yantar; they aren't on their post nor inside the bunker (haven't found any bodies though), is there a way I could spawn them? same w/ Freedom medic - doesn't seem to be at his post in the building w/ beds (I remember he's supposed to be there from vanilla Anomaly, but maybe he was moved intentionally)

[sour seal]

dang what helmet is this?

[astral wigeon]

DRIP

[visual goblet]

big daddy vibes

[slow fox]

Damn

[carmine wyvern]

Which file do I need to backup in order to keep my keybinds, graphic settings and gameplay changes etc.?

I dont neccesarily want to re-apply all changes and keybinds after doing an update via the launcher.

#╭📖faq

[abstract trout]

If I create a stash in a base, will it get looted by npcs?

[graceful iron]

no

[abstract trout]

thx

[civic wharf]

stashes in Gamma don't get touched by NPCs at all

[abstract trout]

I have another question. When I bring my cursor on the weapon, it brings up the details which covers most of the inventory. I want to make it appear on the left instead of right side of the screen. Any idea how to do that?

[mild trout]

i think there's already an addon for that in GAMMA

just gotta enable it

it's in GAMMA Disabled section

Raven's tooltips on the side

enable it, but not sure if it doesn't come without any issues

[abstract trout]

gonna check

[mild trout]

[abstract trout]

much better now thx

[sour seal]

ahhhh yeah i got him as my companion

petition to add a drill hand and nail gun for my big daddy companion

[storm shadow]

which addon or patch overwrite the BAS weapons's ltx files? I modified it and it doesn't do anything but all the modif I made on Gamma Weapons work fine ingame

[stark thunder]

So I’ve managed to get a decent weapon but how so I get a decent armour? I’m not finding much in the way of decent pieces at all.

[storm shadow]

#│📚manual

[graceful iron]

you will need to loot one and repair it, keep disassembling armors you dont need and you will end up with parts for repairs and now you can buy parts from mechanics

[stark thunder]

Ahh not what I meant

Ahh okay

Where is a good place to loot some good armour

I just visited duty hq

[graceful iron]

army warehouses/red forest/garbage/limansk

[stark thunder]

For the first time, and I’m starting to branch out

[graceful iron]

radar also

[stark thunder]

Aha and I should be looking for hostile cultists then?

[graceful iron]

monolith has some good armors but the same goes for clear sky/mercs/duty

you might even end up with a good seva suit from stashes

[stark thunder]

Righteo

I’ll check out those areas

[dense ridge]

is there a legend for the status symbols in the bottom left?

[graceful iron]

no, but its really simple. overall health/limb health/ammo count/fire mode/psy health/radiation bar/stamina bar

oh wait, you mean the icons that appear next to that ?

[dense ridge]

ya

like is that a good or a bad symbol for food and water

[buoyant oxide]

How much psy res do I need to get into the red forest ?

[graceful iron]

you need the psy helmet

[buoyant oxide]

Where do I get that ?

[graceful iron]

those specifically are bad, means you are hungry and thirsty

[graceful iron]

sakharov, the bunker in yantar

[dense ridge]

@graceful iron and what would like a good symbol look like? Is it a different color?

[radiant pollen]

no symbol is best

there are worse symbols though

yellow and red

[dense ridge]

ohhh okay

[graceful iron]

bruh

[dense ridge]

ya no I was thinking there would be buffs

and i wanted to make sure

[graceful iron]

there are positive effects and negative effects

[dense ridge]

lol

okay so symbols will show up for both positive and negative effects in the bottom left?

like what would a symbol look like where my hunger is increasing

or is that a thing

err hunger is getting better*

[buoyant oxide]

do I need a specific quest or amount of rep ? He doesnt have it rn

[radiant pollen]

for food, no symbol it best, there are positives for radiation, stamina, etc

[dense ridge]

okay gotcha

so

what does a negative rad and a positive rad look like then

[radiant pollen]

honestly, I confuse them all the time, they're pretty similar

[graceful iron]

"what can you tell me about the brain scorcher" click on that and pay him 30k for the calibrated version

[dense ridge]

haha okay; that's annoying but all good -- thanks

[graceful iron]

you will figure them out as you go, they arent that complicated

[buoyant oxide]

I don't have that option

[radiant pollen]

you'll get used to it though, whichever one appears when you step in a rad field, that's the bad one

[graceful iron]

story mode?

[radiant pollen]

ruh roh

[buoyant oxide]

idk how do I check ?

[graceful iron]

did you start with story mode enabled or did you enable something else like survival or warfare ?

[buoyant oxide]

I don't remember, any way I can look it up ?

[graceful iron]

not that i know of

[radiant pollen]

do you have missions with orange names?

[buoyant oxide]

no

[storm shadow]

The uncalibrated version works fine too

[radiant pollen]

not orange names sorry, yellow/orange nav markers

(I'm colour blind sorry)

[buoyant oxide]

No they're all white

[buoyant oxide]

pretty sure i cant even get that

[graceful iron]

no, it will kill you in the brain scorcher

[radiant pollen]

crispeh brain

[graceful iron]

you didnt start with story mode then, you can debug the helmet or kill sakharov

[radiant pollen]

can you get to Sakharovs body if you kill him?

[buoyant oxide]

How do I debug it ?

[radiant pollen]

enable debug, hit F7, should be in #╭📖faq

[graceful iron]

open debug menu, you can enable debug mode through the anomaly launcher

#╭📖faq #╭📖faq message

[buoyant oxide]

thanks !

[radiant pollen]

I'd recommend everyone has it enabled, even if you don't think you'll use it. Sometimes shit breaks and there's no other way to fix it

[mild trout]

does it matter if i give a companion a banged up gun?

or should i fix it

i'm guessing they will have unlimited ammo no matter the gun

from what i've seen

[radiant pollen]

I'm fairly sure they won't care, they use ammo hacks, why not guns

[mild trout]

yeah, true

[graceful iron]

they will jam more often with damaged guns

[radiant pollen]

o rly

[mild trout]

the gun will lose condition right?

[graceful iron]

but good luck keeping their gear in good condition they chew through the condition like crazy

[mild trout]

yeah

seems pointless then

[radiant pollen]

not even sure I've seen an npc jam before, but I tend to avoid companions

[buoyant oxide]

So I spawned it, bug I can't seem to weat it, is that normal ?

[radiant pollen]

it works from your inv

[graceful iron]

you just have it in your inventory

[buoyant oxide]

cool ! Thanks again

[north turret]

so I did all the brightness and console commands in this video however my game is still dark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2r0Czvjzg8

[light python]

question about the game itself, what does the "Base cost" mean, is it the max selling price of certain things?

[visual flicker]

You mean displayed on tooltip when you hover your mouse over item?

[light python]

yea

[visual flicker]

This is items "base value" set in game files. This value is multiplied by buying or selling coefficient that you can set in Anomaly settings (it is set when you start the game by selecting your economy difficulty).

[graceful iron]

#╭📖faq black screen

[north turret]

In a course of desperation I have activated MKAO to outline everything i cant see

[light python]

ah, thanks

[visual flicker]

So ie. if item is 100 rubles on tooltip and you are selling it with buying coefficient of 0.5, you will sell it for 50. But if buying coefficient is 1.75, then you will buy it from trader for 175 RU

Alright, you get it 🙂

I think there maybe some other factors, but I don't have a clue 😛

The basic idea is that whatever trader is selling is worth more then its weight in gold, while everything that you are selling to them is considered shit... even if you buy and sell withing, like, 2 seconds 🙂

[north turret]

Doesnt work

My screen isnt black near campfires

But mostly everything is black even in clear weather

[bleak egret]

lol use screenshots you goon

[north turret]

Dont know how lo

Me pressing F12 only to not know where screenshots are saving

[analog marsh]

is it "intended" to have depth of field turned on alongside Reshade? I can live with the aiming defocus thing

[bleak egret]

Windows Key + Shift + s

[north turret]

So back to the subject how do i fix my darknes

I will give another photo

[radiant pollen]

If you're trying to screenshot with an item tooltip showing it tends to go "windows key, shift- oh shit where's my gun gone"

[tidal raft]

The snipping tool is susceptible to Windows settings.

[bleak egret]

oh, thats a fair point

[tidal raft]

Press Prntsc and see the path it's saved to at the top of the screen.

[north turret]

dark

its like night time but you cant use night vision

[tidal raft]

Did you add anything graphical add-ons yourself?

[north turret]

no

i just added GAMMA npcs cant see through foliage

thats all

[tidal raft]

See #│🔧troubleshooting for dark screen.

[versed cedar]

Which mod is the ash12 updated version?

I can’t find it

[north turret]

dont work

[tidal raft]

Change the brightness settings in the Settings menu, and test the settings in Dynamic Tonemap within MCM.

[willow hawk]

Playing in DX8 ?

[north turret]

No DX11

[willow hawk]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/924990072342843412/962324870170034266/unknown-66.png

do that

[north turret]

I uh will give photos of the brightness settings i tried

Oh ok

Will do

[distant pumice]

i seem to not be able to change the zoom on the scope, i use march-F scope

anyway to fix this ?

[north turret]

saddly didnt work

welp no problems

i will go play something else

might reinstall gamma if other stuff doesnt work

[willow hawk]

Depends on the gun

[willow hawk]

Simply adjust brightness using in game basic light settings button in the visual option menu

[north turret]

Tried it before but sure

Didnt work

Just leave it i will play in black and white lol

[distant pumice]

im using RD-47 ISG

ok nvm i can change zoom using howa but not that gun

welp time to find other gun

I didnt use faq, only troubleshooting and reshade brightness settings however it didnt work

But mid level enemies just dont wanna die

Ssssh.

[tidal raft]

There it is.

[clever hound]

There we have it

[zenith perch]

Thank u guys for the response

[tidal raft]

Elementary, dear Watson.

[clever hound]

Pro tip: look for 60%+ weapons

I mean, barrel condition

[bleak egret]

pro tip, use axe

[clever hound]

That way you can easily repair any weapon

[tidal raft]

Parts specifically.

[light python]

question, can you repair 25% barrels?

[tidal raft]

No problem. See the APART-guide in #╭📖faq for more info.

[tidal raft]

Not by itself, they must be replaced. See the APART-guide.

[zenith perch]

I only cared about weapon condition... Didnt know that the parts matters too

[light python]

shite, thanks

[clever hound]

Finding a weapon in good barrel condition is half of a battle. Other parts you can buy at mechanic

If you struggle to find some

[light python]

pain

[clever hound]

This applies for those who can't find proper tools. That way you can fix weapons with basic tools

[light python]

you can put a sawed off barell from a double barrel to another full length double barrel right?

just making sure since it looks like you can

[clever hound]

How many times your character said BLYAT when your broomstick jammed ?

[clever hound]

Ye, if its the same barrel. It should be.

its in announcements

i didnt notice that one, ok

[sick latch]

At what condition do guns start to jam?

[idle storm]

I think you can set that in the settings but it's around 60-80% I think

[primal bear]

I was wondering why some of my guns that are at or around 100% in value have negative values to them, or is this just how some guns are?

[boreal monolith]

the values in paranthesis are there to compare the weapon's stats with a weapon you have equiped

Guys I have pressed enter on numpad to open up the extra hud stuff like squad members etc. but my minimap seem to have disappeared. It was there when I pressed enter to make it show up but after I closed it and reopened the map is not there anymore

[graceful iron]

make sure the minimap is enabled in game settings > visuals > HUD

[north turret]

Press slash button

[ornate salmon]

and click /

[north turret]

above the enter key

[hasty hinge]

is enabled already

mfw I dont have english keyboard so... lol

[north turret]

Unlucky

[hasty hinge]

I have pressed every possible key but did not work

[idle storm]

still the same position. i recommend an image of the english layout somewhere for stuff like that

[hasty hinge]

Maybe something weird with the game? Cuz it used to work like 15 minutes ago

Okay so I changed levels and my minimap just came back on lol

[drowsy bolt]

yantar has these ~~green ~~ purple flowers among other dead vegetation, is this intended?

[wise sparrow]

yeah it's from gardener of the zone. i actually change the grass settings to have the density a bit higher, draw distance at 110 and height to .9. you get about the same fps and it looks really good while still keeping the ground readable.

[royal oxide]

how much do the starting kar98 and sks scopes cost now?

[drowsy bolt]

this looks cool, thx, however I just wonder whether this kinda vibrant grass feels out of place just for me

[wise sparrow]

if you go to the updates channel you can click on the github link and see the changes for yourself. the scopes got changed to 8500 base so the final cost depends on your difficulty settings. they used to be around 1800 i think.

[wise sparrow]

it changes depending on the zone but if you look at the moddb page the author hasn't finished all of the zones yet. garbage looks really good as well as the cordon.

[boreal monolith]

i started with the kar as clear sky, i can buy it for 9000

Can you get a follower unstuck from a doorway without debug?

[gloomy rose]

Is it normal, that the technician (forget his name) and the cook (I think Butcher is his name) disappear from Yantar after the Radar Lab (X-19, Brain Scorcher) was shut down? I can not find them anywhere since then

[radiant pollen]

are effects like anti-rad cumulative, highest effect only or most recent overwrites the other?

[radiant pollen]

Both of them are frequently missing for me, I figure they walk off to fight zombies and get themselves killed, it drives me nuts

[minor star]

That bug should've been fixed on the latest update

They had a tendency for just outright disappearing

[radiant pollen]

oh dope, didn't realise we had a new update

[gloomy rose]

Daaaang ... How do I get them back, when they went already missing in my save?

[minor star]

You spawn them back in using debug, but it's a little different from spawning other NPCs and unfortunately I don't know for sure

[radiant pollen]

I'll try and report back

[minor star]

IIRC you can spawn the Yantar cook using this on the debug menu, but I never tried it so it may be wrong

Go near where they usually are too

[gloomy rose]

Wait ... When they are dead: why can I not use the vice? Normally it says, that you can use the vice after the technician died

[radiant pollen]

they're not dead, just... gone

[heady field]

Heyah. Im having odd problem. I would like to use [put name of rifle] that have both granade launcher and hybrid sight (like long range sight and collimator). When Im hitting "V" by default to either pick nade launcher or change sight the action changes randomly (ugh sorry my engring). Question is can I play with both hybrid sights and grenade launcher or should I just forget about this combo and rock with only a hybrid sights?

[mystic arrow]

My guy is gasping and grunting and i can't seem to understand why, like his right arm is kinda messed up but all other levels look good

[radiant pollen]

They tend to complain when their body parts hurt, I would too

[mystic arrow]

Makes sense, its like both yawning, grunting and gasping

Feels like taking care of a tamagotchi

[radiant pollen]

it do be like that sometimes

I'm not cleaning up stalker poops though

[gloomy rose]

I don't think it is random. You will switch from scope to canted (red dot) sight to grenade launcher and back to scope. That is totally normal

I would not consider running with grenade launcher + scope + canted sight (laser) ... Use a rifle with a grenade launcher and one scope OR a hybrid kit 🙂

[bleak egret]

could be an issue with the NPC hub removal thing

[north turret]

So like I still have issues with the dark game, and when I try to fix it with cfg_load grading_default all the darkness turns blue

Does that ring a bell somewhere

So i can get help

[heady field]

Thank you. I will stay with hybrid kit then for now. Cheers

[mystic arrow]

Does one bandage stop all bleeding?

[graceful iron]

it stops an amount of bleeding, sometimes the bleeding is more than one bandage can stop

just use one more if you are still bleeding

[mystic arrow]

Ah thanks, so if it's still red next to the yellow I'm still bleeding

[north turret]

how am I supposed to get more gauss ammo?

[graceful iron]

buy it from traders at level 5

i think nato sell it

[radiant pollen]

I dug up the character IDs, paste the NPC ID you want into the object spawner debug (spawn by section)
Spirit: yan_povar_army_mlr_squad
Peregrine: mechanic_army_yan_mlr_squad

Select Spawn at smart terrain
Level: l08_yantar
smart: yan_smart_terrain_6_4

[gloomy rose]

And then this will spawn them and not duplicate them?

[graceful iron]

oh wait... i think you also need their logic

[radiant pollen]

I'll check

[graceful iron]

you need to execute their logic after spawning them, only spawning them makes them a normal stalker that will just roam around

[radiant pollen]

they still have their unique dialog, not sure on the wandering as my game just crashed

[graceful iron]

try trading with them, i think they dont have their correct inventories

i have tried this before with butcher, he was just a normal stalker that didnt have the butcher inventory and was just roaming the place

[radiant pollen]

lol, they absolutely don't, peregrine trying to sell me a veles

I'll find the logic for them too I guess, I'm invested in this now

[graceful iron]

[steady sphinx]

Evening, I've got the Last Dawn mission from Spore in the Clear Sky base to locate the missing scout. His location is " north of the swamp road " Been looking for a while and can't seem to find him. Anyone able to help a fellow stalker ? 🙂

[wise sparrow]

#╭📖faq message

[graceful iron]

make sure to check #╭📖faq

[steady sphinx]

@wise sparrow My thanks

[wise sparrow]

try this #old-bugs message

it will overwrite your keybinds and other settings changes you may have made though

[radiant pollen]

Can someone spawn in either Peregrine or Spirit then try to open their logic debug? It's CTD every time I try it with them

[wise sparrow]

does duty expansion work without major issues now? I saw that grok fixed the nimble dialogue a while ago but wasn't sure if it had any other major issues.

[tidal raft]

No.

[mystic arrow]

I've set the head bobbing to 0 but it's the same as 5, any other way to disable it?

1*

[wise sparrow]

camera reanimation project in the mcm -> uncheck run/walk effects

[mystic arrow]

Thank you!

[mortal trout]

Ayo does anyone know the quest where cold asks you to clear the road to cordon?

I cant seem to get it done, i only got a sawn off double barreled shotgun and theres like 10 guys in that camp of their

[graceful iron]

you get a clear sky squad to help you with the fight

you just need to wait for them

[radiant pollen]

you can always come back later too

[graceful iron]

also, not being able to do a mission because you cant do it is not a #🔨base-gamma-support

[sudden egret]

Wait what

[undone viper]

Are you able to sleep outside? Whenever I use a sleeping bag it tells me I need to find somewhere safe.

[graceful iron]

you cant sleep outside unless you place a tent first, and then a sleeping bag inside it

you can place the sleeping bag in any "safe" building as well

[undone viper]

Thanks

[abstract trout]

does anyone know what causes the color change depending on where I am pointing my cursor?

[radiant pollen]

Alright, proper solution, inventorys are fine, behaviours are fine.
Paste the NPC ID you want into the object spawner debug (spawn by section)
Spirit: yan_povar_army_mlr_squad
Peregrine: mechanic_army_yan_mlr_squad

Select Spawn at smart terrain
Level: l08_yantar
smart: yan_smart_terrain_6_4

[mortal trout]

The question was supposed to be "how do I get past these bastards" but I get what you mean

Sorry about that

[radiant pollen]

shoot em in they face

[mortal trout]

I did :D

And it worked

[radiant pollen]

Good play, solid work

[mortal trout]

Thanks mate

[gloomy rose]

Thank you for the work. I will try that solution in about 10 hours 😅 Currently I'm not exactly sure, what the Spawn at smart terrain is, but I will see it, when I'm in the debug menu :)

[radiant pollen]

I was figuring out for myself as much as you, I wanted them back 😬 Just make it look like this and it will work

[wise sparrow]

anyone ever gotten this stash in truck cemetery before? the blue circle in the first screenshot is where it SHOULD be but it seems it's not marked correctly on the PDA; if it even exists in the first place.

[radiant pollen]

you sure it's not a bit further forward?

[wise sparrow]

i moved for the second shot to get a better picture since the player icon was right on top of the stash

and backed up a bit for the first one

flying around in demo record and there's just nothing there

[radiant pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/tommy-boy-chris-farley-hmmm-mystery-thats-a-mystery-gif-15297682

[minor star]

I can't say for sure, but it should be inside some bushes there

Sometimes they need to be opened from a certain direction so it can take a while to find them

[bleak egret]

and it wasnt in a tree? i often find myself getting annoyed, and then bam. in the freakin tree

[minor star]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I always check the bushes first, but it could very well be on a tree

[wise sparrow]

I flew around i demo record for a good 20 minutes. Nothing in the bushes near the marker or up anywhere in the trees. Theres a tree stump stash nearby but it was empty.

[sudden egret]

did you try enabling debug mode and fast traveling directly to it

[wise sparrow]

Not yet i gave up but I’m kind of curious now.

[mild trout]

why does killing Petrenko crash my game

[vernal wharf]

I'm having trouble with the Anomalous Study mission, how does it work? I have that weird detector, but the bar goes up and down and i don't have any clue why or how to complete it

[minor star]

Pull the detector they gave you out, and when the bar starts to fill stand still until it's full

After a couple of seconds you should complete the mission

[vernal wharf]

oh i see, thanks. That destroyed my armor durability lol

[sudden egret]

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but with the bat artifact transmutation is it supposed to upgrade OR give you a random artifact?

I used it on an empty and got a crystal, reloaded and got a full empty

[ornate maple]

It's my understanding that after the Freedom questline for Hip you can somehow have her stay at Yanov instead of trekking all the way back to the Rookie Village? When I dismiss her she seems to just leave Yanov and start walking south, presumeably to the Rookie Village

[wise sparrow]

it should give you the next tier up. iirc you right click on what you want to upgrade and select transmute but i haven't used one since RC1

[wise sparrow]

just teleports you to the empty spot I posted earlier

[south jungle]

Hm, is there a taunt keybind?

[shrewd dirge]

I just got the Last Day quest where you've got to rescue the scout who is "North of the Swamp Road" but I've got no clue where that is. Any help would be hugely appreciated

[bleak egret]

#╭📖faq

[shrewd dirge]

Got it. Thank you, sorry

[jovial kestrel]

I enabled magazine redux in game but it doesn't seem to work. What am I missing here?

[trim bloom]

How is it not working? Is there no trace of mags redux anywhere?

[idle storm]

take care since once enabled you have to make a new save when you decide against it

[jovial kestrel]

I started a new game and can reload my weapons without needing a mag or anything and none in my inventory

[trim bloom]

Is mags redux being overwritten by any other mod? You can see this in MO2 by the lightning icon

[jovial kestrel]

thank for the heads up

[jovial kestrel]

i'll check

[barren path]

you need to uncheck starter item are not broken for mags redux to work

this one

in Gamma economy and craft

and maybe even unjam reload on the same key too
