Ah well, I'll give it a try, can't get better helmet without tools

also, general question, does resistance stack?

Life if i take, psy block, weed, Etperazine and sleeping pills do i get massive psy protection or does it just use the highest one?

[slim sleet]

@willow hawk ?

[graceful iron]

just use the highest one, they dont stack

my guess is that berill-5s arent included in the armor trading system. @rare sluice sorry about the ping but is this correct or ?

[willow hawk]

GAMMA Economy I think or GAMMA Armor repair like WPO

[rare sluice]

That is correct

[scarlet ember]

ok, so I'll just keep using my bandito suit. just glad it's not a problem on my end again

[graceful iron]

so there are odd armors here and there that are not included at all? well this is gonna get confusing for a lot of players

[slim sleet]

not gamma economy cause i already unticked it, gonna try WPO

[willow hawk]

Just add armors using debug mode

It's like the same at this point

[slim sleet]

sorry i aint the tinkering kind
Because of armor degradation i find myself loading back wheneverr i take too much damage :/
if i could lower the rate of armor degradation i would not disable repairing thing :/

[graceful iron]

Text guides about repairing, mantaining and cleaning your gun and your armor:

For weapons: #╭📖faq message
For armors: #╭📖faq message

[graceful iron]

its not hard, these guides should cover everything

[slim sleet]

Is there a way ?

[lime sinew]

Psy block is indeed not enough for opera house, time to find tools somewhere else

[north turret]

At the rate I collect random crap from killing thousands of people in the game, I always get parts to just replace broken pieces of my armor as I go. I never have to repair it. A replacement is just an empty magazine away.

Genocidal trash panda simulator

[willow hawk]

Play in Easy Tourist

The game ain't easy

You'll get back to it with increased difficulty. Later on

Easy Tourist is easy, you'll learn the mechanics

[scarlet ember]

yeah I started with easy tourist and didn't get a radiation mask so that was fun

but you do have enough points to get all the unavailable-in-stores starter kit

[north turret]

When 1.0 drops will it be best to start a new game or will it not matter whether you star ta new game or use a current save?

[graceful iron]

you can use the current save unless grok says otherwise in #📢announcements

[vapid peak]

1.0 Q1 2023?

[north turret]

can you still accept the "mysteries of the zone" quest from the Dr. or did Grok remove it altogether?

[fast stream]

how do I disable the awful english voicelines for your character

[graceful iron]

you can just enable the addon, its in mo2

[vapid peak]

Why did he disable it by default?

[graceful iron]

i dont remember i think it was in #📢announcements somewhere

[willow hawk]

I removed it by default

You can activate it in MO2 however

But the quest isn't good

[north turret]

is it buggy or just meh

[willow hawk]

More doesn't mean necessarily better imho

[tawny tinsel]

Got some troubles with visibility...
Is one allowed to send a picture to give an example?

Generally lighting / darkness balance seems to be way off and been trying to fix it for few hours now but no luck.

[willow hawk]

It's not well integrated, poorly written, tedious, not fun, and shit on the OG games lore

[graceful iron]

yes you can post images just fine

[tawny tinsel]

14:33, swamp, but basically any interior area is extreme like this in terms of darkness

similar issues occur outdoors if sun is even remotely near the screen.

Awesome modpack but this is just, quite troublesome

[graceful iron]

!blackscreen

[raw raft]

Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[graceful iron]

try the command and see if that changes anything

did you mess with shaders ?

[lime sinew]

Oh, are toolkits not used up anymore when replacing parts in the vice, or did I just encounter a bug?

[graceful iron]

repair kits are only consumed when repairing the gun/armor directly or when maintaining guns and replacing/cleaning parts

its been changed

[lime sinew]

Awesome, I remember some time ago each part you changed used one use of the kit, thanks

[tawny tinsel]

didn't touch shader presets but somehow from the get go they were broken.. But now after yeeting the cache and reloading the save, it's fixed. Thanks!

[twin spear]

Is there any tool to resize textures on dx11?

im using YAWM and i will not notice a difference if i resize them

i only want change ground and some dynamic object textures at 1024 if i can

[vernal wharf]

why can Hip carry 100+ kg but other companions only 65 kg? Is there a way to increse it that i am missing? I would mind stronger mules lol

[graceful iron]

give them backpacks or belt attachments that increase carry weight

she is tougher and can carry more because she is supposed to be an important quest character

the better the suit of the companion the more they can carry. exoskeleton ones can carry a lot but cant equip backpacks

[vernal wharf]

Didn't know that, seems like i will be crafting backpacks

Thanks

[lime sinew]

anyway to see a list of recipes without paying for the vice first?

[brisk zinc]

Find a basic toolkit first

Or a toolkit in general

[lime sinew]

I have one but I left it at the base

[brisk zinc]

My man 🤝

Why

Bring it with you

Don't use vices

It's stupid

It's a waist of money, seriously

[lime sinew]

Wait, if I have basic tools i don't need vices?

[brisk zinc]

Vices don't have toolkit

No

[lime sinew]

WHAT

THE

FUCK??

[brisk zinc]

#╭📖faq message

It's literally common knowledge

[lime sinew]

Ok, I must have my head in a previous version or something, what benefits do vices give in that case?

[brisk zinc]

Nothing

[lime sinew]

bruh

[brisk zinc]

You need to give technicians toolkits in order to do SOMETHING on their vices

But even then

It's useless

Because you already have the same thing... on you

For free

[lime sinew]

ok, I think I was under the impression i needed vices to do weapon maintenance (changing parts), but i must have been thinking of anomaly or something

[brisk zinc]

No you can avoid vices

You don't need them

Technicians are good for two things only

1. Clean your gun and upgrade your stuff
2. Sell more stuff if you bring them spare toolkits

Nothing else

You already have a "vice" with your basic toolkit

Every toolkit is a "vice"

And every toolkit have a "functionality"

[lime sinew]

ok that is actually fucking amazing and makes thing much easier

[brisk zinc]

Basic/Advanced/Expert are needed together to make end game stuff

Basic/Advanced for early/mid and Basic alone for early

For example

If a recipe need Advanced Toolkit

You need to have on you Basic Toolkit as well

[lime sinew]

Yeah the rest i'm aware

[willow hawk]

It's written on many loading screens + on the manual in your pda, which is now advertised by a message when launching a save for the first time....

[brisk zinc]

Step by step, little by little...

I know the struggle

[lime sinew]

the reason i'm so dumbfounded is that i had like 100 hours in a previous version where i used a vice every single time

[willow hawk]

And I mean, with psy storms and shit, you definitely have time to read the manual while playing

[lime sinew]

must have spent 25k on vice alone

[willow hawk]

[brisk zinc]

Imagine people reading

[willow hawk]

Gamma makes your life easier on almost every aspect actually

[lime sinew]

I'm a Magic the Gathering player it's common knowledge we can't read lmao

[willow hawk]

Forces you to use the repair system and crafting, but makes them more accessible and better balanced at the same time

[willow hawk]

How many matches did you loose because the other player told you that this card does that before quickly shoving it in at the bottom of his graveyard lol

[lime sinew]

"You see when I play this card I initiate a infinite loop of extra turns which ultimately wins me the game. Rematch?"V

[willow hawk]

(it happened to me don't laugh lol)

(not the infinite turn thing though obviously)

[lime sinew]

it's more likely than you think

especially when people buy cards in chinese because cheaper

and they are like "it does this bro, trust me"

good thing anomaly vodka no need instructions

[past sigil]

is it possible to use the canted sight for this gun?

[willow hawk]

Press V #│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[past sigil]

thx

[brisk zinc]

@dull escarp I need to ask you something else, when you have the chance

[lime sinew]

is the GP-5 decent for early-mid game? haven't found anything that seems better yet

[simple cipher]

hello guys, sorry for bringing this up once again but i still haven't got an answer: does the CS-1 armor not work with the armor exchange system?

[brisk zinc]

@rare sluice ?

[nocturne tartan]

Hey guys, after delivering anomalous artifacts to prof. Markov in Yantar numerous times, he redirects me to his colleague called Kovalev who is in great swamps. Unfortunately mission fails instantly since I think that person is long dead. Please give me any advice, maybe I can respawn him or something. Thanks

[brisk zinc]

Forget the quest completely, it's a stupid quest with a stupid reward, a fucking letter
Kill Markov as well

[rare sluice]

Grok said he wants only a few armors to be able to be exchanged and complained when I suggested putting in the details of which armors can be exchanged

[soft leaf]

didn't work

[mystic oar]

[brisk zinc]

I don't get the "complaining", since it's only "few of them", knowing what armor you CAN trade it's actually needed

The fuck?

It literally avoid questions like that spammed 100000000 times, "why this armor doesn't work"?

[simple cipher]

its a bit confusing because the trader dialogue menu just switches back to the initial screen and nothing happens

[simple cipher]

sad but true :))

[brisk zinc]

And this is why I already told him that having something like "no fuck off I won't do it" is needed

[simple cipher]

THAT

[brisk zinc]

It's good to see how everyone thinks the same way

Problem is

That thing, is hard to do

But fuck it is needed, come on now

You don't want to do the dialogue? Fine

But at least write SOMEWHERE what you can and can't trade

[dull escarp]

@brisk zinc Falco you needed to ask me something?

[simple cipher]

let us pray to lord grok for this feature

amen

[atomic briar]

i have Sidorovich door locked any way araund it?

[warped ginkgo]

you are enemy faction

[atomic briar]

nop

[warped ginkgo]

disguise of the armor?

either way that's the only way sid closes the door

[timid jewel]

what does 'Fast Travel Availability in Hours' exactly mean?

[brisk zinc]

No don't worry, already done

[dull escarp]

ok then

have a nice day

[atomic briar]

have armor with no pach and am in frendly fakcion

[simple cipher]

the amount of hours you have to wait before traveling again

[timid jewel]

aaah okay

thanks <3

[simple cipher]

welcome

this "DEMO" text appeared out of nowhere after i loaded my save, does anyone have any idea?

[graceful iron]

you have god mode active in debug menu

press f7

[simple cipher]

thanks, that was it

[sudden egret]

Paying for vices should just be removed it's just a trap for new players

[wise sparrow]

still useful if you give your last toolkit to a mechanic for money for meds or whatever

[sick latch]

The last dawn mission for Sid, is it actually viable to sneak in, or should I just shoot everyone?

[willow hawk]

Because you don't have any compatible armor

Adding that new line is annoying as hell with the dialog system... But I can come up with something eventually

[brisk zinc]

I still believe that having something like "you can" and "you cannot" is needed

Because we're talking about "few" armors

Not all of them

[willow hawk]

[brisk zinc]

Not something in game

Something outside the game as well

That could be fine as well imho

Because at least you know what you can and can't trade

It's not even babysitting since I know you

[willow hawk]

https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/blob/main/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_addons/Grok's and Darkasleif's Armor Exchange/gamedata/scripts/grok_armor_convert.script

[brisk zinc]

[willow hawk]

Here it is

Now leave me be

You don't need your factions armor to play anyways

[brisk zinc]

I agree with you 100%

But people will ask

You know it

I've been on this server for months

[willow hawk]

I know

[brisk zinc]

You can't just put out something so big and expect people to not ask

We need at least something where it says "this is fine" and "this isn't fine", because they will ask

[willow hawk]

If people connect their 2 brain cells they would understand they can't trade shit tier ibaz for skat9

Because ibaz aren't skat9

While you ask for a skat9

And the dialog states you need equivalent armor

[brisk zinc]

Of course, that should be obvious, but the point is that before you could virtually trade everything

Now it's only a selected list of stuff, it's different, this is what I'm saying

[willow hawk]

Gather a bunch of trash armors and try converting them

That's the idea of the system

[willow hawk]

No

It's just damn LIGHT ARMORS REPAIRED WITH LIGHT KIT

[simple cipher]

ok i understand the reasoning now

[willow hawk]

For OTHER ARMORS REPAIRED WITH LIGHT KITS

Because it's written "Light armor"

Same for "Medium"

It's written in the dialog I mean

But even if I wrote a line like "sorry you don't have any compatible armor"

People would still ask why they can't trade the just looted bandit jacket for a Nosorog you know

[brisk zinc]

I'm sure @rare sluice here would do everything if you just give the "okay" for the mod, you don't have to think about it

[willow hawk]

Hey it's 60k that's a lot of money

[simple cipher]

i tried every single option and none worked, that's what made it confusing, i dont think anyone is expecting to trade light armor for an exo

[brisk zinc]

That's people stupidity in that case but it's exaggerated in this case

[brisk zinc]

I agree

People are stupid but that is another level

[civic wharf]

so players who don't read faq or manual shouldn't be punished by wasting roubles?
or, a better question - why should anyone bother disabling it if it would just cater to those voluntarily ignorant players

[willow hawk]

Then the other solution is "not display anything until you have the correct armor"

But then people would ask why they can't trade amors

[simple cipher]

i totally agree with this one too

[willow hawk]

And why they can't get a loner Nosorog

Cause there aren't any

[simple cipher]

sure man, i was just curious, didnt mean to raise the temperature here

[brisk zinc]

You're getting too hung up on it, imho

[willow hawk]

This system is just a goddamn icing on the cake for fucking muh immersion people

[brisk zinc]

People just want to know if shit is tradeable or not

That's the whole point

I get your point

But ekorad here just tried everything and he didn't manage to do it

[rare sluice]

What if I add a line here that says 'This armor is tradeable'

[brisk zinc]

At this point I'm curious

[willow hawk]

Yay and I don't have 1 months to code a barter UI sorry

[brisk zinc]

@simple cipher the fuck are you trying to trade?

[willow hawk]

Already discussed

[simple cipher]

was a 90%+ condition CS-1

[willow hawk]

Ok I will just remove that shit system at this point

[brisk zinc]

Isn't that light/medium?

[simple cipher]

light, yeah

[brisk zinc]

See Grok, this is the point

It's a light armor

[rare sluice]

Ah, didn't think you understood me. Sorry

[brisk zinc]

He's trying to get a light armor

But he can't

People just want to know why they can't

[brisk zinc]

I don't believe whatever faction is playing doesn't have a light armor

[simple cipher]

i mostly wanted to know if its a bug or not, the fact that nothing happened

[brisk zinc]

I mean Loners have a fucking exosuit
I just got one earlier, traded a military one for a Loner one, they surely have a light armor as well

[willow hawk]

At which trader ?

[simple cipher]

at the trader dude in the swamp, clear sky's one

[willow hawk]

You telling me

You try to trade

A goddamn clear sky armor

At the goddamn clear sky trader

And you wonder why it doesn't work

Did you read the dialog ?

Like

[warped ginkgo]

[willow hawk]

It's to trade OTHER FACTIONS ARMORS for armors of YOUR FACTION

[brisk zinc]

@simple cipher COME ON MAN

[willow hawk]

This isn't a "upgrade my armor" system

[brisk zinc]

I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU HERE

Don't drown me

[simple cipher]

i think you misunderstood part of my issue

[willow hawk]

It's a goddamn " Exchange my Monolith exo for a Clear sky exo"

[simple cipher]

i was curios why nothing happened, like no feedback or something

[willow hawk]

[simple cipher]

besides trying to figure out if im retarded or not

[rare sluice]

Not coded to do anything as of now if I read the code correctly

[willow hawk]

I won't code lines of dialogues like "sorry mate, you can't turn in armors of your own faction for armors of your own faction "

And as I said

[simple cipher]

ok, i understood, became clear now

[brisk zinc]

The system is literally "bring me a MILITARY SHIT (enemy faction) for LONER SHIT (your faction), I'll give you THE SAME SHIT BUT FOR YOUR FACTION", I thought this was easy to understand

[willow hawk]

Even if I add something like "you don't have compatible armors" you would have come here to ask @simple cipher

"but why can't I trade my cs1 for an armor at the clear sky trader"

Simply because you didn't get the system

Mainly because English isn't your main language I guess

[simple cipher]

it's not, and yes, i didn't fully get it, besides not knowing if there are any other equivalent clear sky armors to CS-1 as i have almost no experience with stalker

[willow hawk]

Ok ok

[brisk zinc]

The whole system was created because people want to play with their own faction armor

Roleplay stuff

Useless stuff in my opinion

[willow hawk]

But like the system is simple I mean....

Text says it all

[warped ginkgo]

i agree that is confusing, maybe text could be changed to indicate the obvious

[willow hawk]

I mean

It does tell everything already

Light armor : it takes any armor repaired with a light repair kit already

(but the predator because you would trade a predator anyways it's the best light suit I'm babysitting players here)

[simple cipher]

i get your point, please don't get heated, i understand you get lots of retarded questions, i didn't mean to be the +1

[willow hawk]

👍

Thanks buddy

[warped ginkgo]

could be included in the manual pda in game

[willow hawk]

Yes yes.....

[rare sluice]

I'll do it for you Grok

[brisk zinc]

Apart some missing commas and some typos, it doesn't SPECIFICALLY say "bring me OTHER FACTION SHIT and I'll get you YOUR FACTION SHIT"

@simple cipher and @warped ginkgo here actually have a point

(This is Sidorovich btw)

[warped ginkgo]

thing is, if someone didn't read #📢announcements about the new armor exchange system and is told that they can change armor at the trader, they get confused
i spawned as clear sky in cordon and went to try exchange armors at sid, obviously the dialogue doesn't appear since im CS but it confuses me at first

[brisk zinc]

@rare sluice since I don't want to mess with Grok (), if he's okay with it, can you add something to this dialogue? I guess it's the same for everyone, at this point
Because it is confusing, especially with what lauta_ro just said

It's something you need to know beforehand

If you don't read all that shit in #📢announcements or OBVIOUSLY ask here, how would you know that you need to bring OTHER FACTION SHIT to get you YOUR FACTION SHIT?

@willow hawk pinging you just to let you see my point here and to have your blessing if you're okay with it

It's a simple dialogue line that need to be added, because the thing isn't very clear after all

[willow hawk]

Read the first line

Like

What you say to get access to it

[brisk zinc]

Grok, come on now

[willow hawk]

Common

Screen that one up

I'm waiting

[brisk zinc]

"I will give you some armors that are about the same kind than the one you have in your possession"

...what?

Come on

It's confusing

[warped ginkgo]

bruh it says 'kind'

by kind a player understands it as 'light' 'medium' 'heavy'

[willow hawk]

Read the line you use to access the dialogue

About the same kind

[lime sinew]

because its an obsolete system with no reason to exist

[willow hawk]

Light > all light work
Medium > all medium work
Exosuit > all exo suit work but special ones to prevent the player from trading a Hero of Freedom for some garbage
Exoskeleton > all works
Nosorog> all works
Skat9 > It's specifically skat9 not heavy

[brisk zinc]

What is right is right and you're right about this

It still remains confusing afterwards, in my honest opinion, and I am not the only one to say this, there must be a reason for that if everyone is saying "stuff is confusing"

[willow hawk]

Armors I found for armors of our faction

Isn't that clear ?

[brisk zinc]

Apparently not since we are (now) in three that doesn't get it the first time...

Seriously let @rare sluice do it, I don't see the problem with it

[willow hawk]

Ok ok I will make very dumb and understandable sentences

Instead of adding flavor to the Text

[brisk zinc]

Actual serious question, is it really that difficult to write an extra line of text? You don't need to write commands on stuff to click, just something to read

[warped ginkgo]

adding a PDA guide entry explaining it should be enough

[simple cipher]

imo any feedback is good

[brisk zinc]

While I agree with this, people doesn't already read anything

Imagine using the PDA to read stuff

[mystic oar]

"I heard that I can exchange another faction's armor for one of our own?"

[warped ginkgo]

lock player in position and force busy hands for 20 min till they read everyting

[simple cipher]

you'd be surprised given how unfriendly is the game's UI

[warped ginkgo]

[brisk zinc]

Great idea

[brisk zinc]

I'm not surprised, I know people don't read

That's why it's useless to put it inside the PDA

[willow hawk]

I'll rewrite the dialogues

[brisk zinc]

Just write an obvious thing that a toddler can understand

If even in that case you can't understand it, you're the problem

[willow hawk]

And I'll ban the next mofos asking questions about it

[brisk zinc]

Yes please

[willow hawk]

I'm joking

[simple cipher]

guess that's no more questions for me

[brisk zinc]

I mean even I had problems the first time

I really thought "I can trade my shit jacket for a good jacket"

This is why something must be written somewhere

Even if it's just a single text line

[brisk zinc]

Because this is the common behaviour

[willow hawk]

This is why I'm removing this system

[brisk zinc]

[willow hawk]

[brisk zinc]

It was useless from the beginning, always said that, just use debug mode and fuck off

[simple cipher]

nono, people who like the system will f... my mom after this

[willow hawk]

Honestly I don't see how to make it good enough without doing a UI

[warped ginkgo]

reintroduce PDA tutorial from soc

[willow hawk]

Or explicitly write down the compatible armors

[brisk zinc]

That was my solution before but just adding the "other shit faction for your faction" should be good already

[willow hawk]

And be a dirty piece of junk

Or simply allow people to buy armors and guns and leave me be

[brisk zinc]

!vanilla

[raw raft]

If you want to be able to buy and sell guns/armors again: #╭📖faq message

[brisk zinc]

It's already a command

[willow hawk]

Gamma cancelled I'm deleting the server

[brisk zinc]

I still believe that adding something like "bring me other faction shit for your faction shit" is good enough

Seriously

No compatibility armors list

[simple cipher]

or just "fuck off"

[willow hawk]

Okay okey...

[brisk zinc]

There's the Github for that

We can look it up

[warped ginkgo]

finally, the armor exchange for ~~||retards ||~~update

[lime sinew]

guys, was there a button to rub and clean the mask?

[brisk zinc]

[lime sinew]

nice, thanks

[brisk zinc]

Next time you can use #│💻keybinds-in-gamma

[civic wharf]

I was talking about the price, not workbenches themselves
in GAMMA it can still be worth it to hand in tools to the mechanic very early game when you're pressed for every bit of carry weight and you're not doing that much crafting outside your main stash anyway
a lot of crafting that was obsolete in vanilla was made desirable in GAMMA again due to scarcity and trader prices, I don't see why it couldn't be remade in the same way for workbenches
also, the price of renting the workbench doesn't matter if you just don't fucking know what you're doing, making it free won't change that so why should anyone bother working on it

[lime sinew]

I didn't explicit ask anyone to work on it, but fact is that there is no reason for the fee to exist now (but to punish new players who are not aware, as you stated).

Also, a lot of people might be used to anomaly's system of crafting and simply assume they can't craft stuff outside the vice

like i previously stated, in my previous 50+ hours playthrough i read through the faq and pda guides multiple times, however the fact that i could craft outside the vice did pass me by

so its not like you literally can't play the game without it

[austere turret]

dumb question, is there a way to lower the view bobbing?

[fossil lynx]

Hey guys, so I'm wondering if theres a way I can decrease the default amount of scope sway? Is it dependent on weapon handling?

[graceful iron]

fix your arms, damaged arms cause more sway on all weapons

the sway on scopes is very slight when your arms are fully healed

[dense ridge]

I fought some telekinesis mutant that disarmed me. Now I can't find my gun. Any tips or is it lost forever?

[brisk zinc]

Keep F pressed and look around

[dense ridge]

Would it be around where I got disarmed or where the mutant was

[brisk zinc]

Mutants doesn't use the force like in Star Wars

It should be near you

Or where he attacked you

Like at your feet

[dense ridge]

haha! Okay thanks. I couldn't tell all I saw was blurry stuff being shot at me. I did find it after almost 10 minutes of looking. I was in garbage so it was in the annoying debris everywhere

when I go near the mutant body i get major tinnitus. What is that from? I don't seem to be affected by anything or losing health, radiation etc.

[brisk zinc]

Tinnitus when he is dead?

[dense ridge]

it's more of a pulsating sound actually

but electronic i guess

i dunno

maybe just a glitch

ya at the mutant dead body

if i walk away it goes away

[brisk zinc]

It should be the "anomaly" sound

[oak saffron]

How strong is the radiation in the Swamp area? Planning to head towards Clear Sky base later.

[brisk zinc]

Very low, just the normal respirator is more than enough

I believe Cordon is worse

[oak saffron]

Oh huh, interesting change. Thanks!

[mystic oar]

Am I supposed to be able to slaughter the entire village with no repercussions?

[sudden egret]

Do you have very high goodwill with CSky?

[mystic oar]

yeah 3k

[sudden egret]

Yeah it's dumb but that's why

[mystic oar]

however i don't think that I should be able to murder them in front of their brethren and get away with it

[sudden egret]

Well, no

maybe you ought to write a mod that deals with that

[mystic oar]

cba, i just won't exploit it

Hey, what do they mean by "1. Disable the Screen Space Shaders - Ascii1457 addon, Enhanced Shaders addon and R3zy Detectors Shaders Fix. Right click Beef's NVG addon and tick the following: Beef's NVG and that's it (untick all other options). Disable the Dynamic Tonemapping addon. Be sure to copy paste the GAMMA RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/modpack_patches/appdata/user.ltx to the Anomaly/appdata folder. Delete Anomaly/appdata/shader_cache folder.". Do I disable them in the game or in the Mod Organizer?

[brisk zinc]

In MO2

[lime sinew]

whoa, what reshade is that?

[glossy zinc]

k, thx

[brisk zinc]

You need the whole guide on it or you're good?

[glossy zinc]

No, I will be fine xD

[brisk zinc]

Disable the Screen Space Shaders - Ascii1457 addon, Enhanced Shaders addon and R3zy Detectors Shaders Fix

You need to disable these mods inside your mod list in MO2

Right click Beef's NVG addon and tick the following: Beef's NVG and that's it (untick all other options)

Find that mod, right click on it, only tick Beef's NVG when you see the window, don't tick anything

Disable the Dynamic Tonemapping addon

Well, pretty explanatory

Be sure to copy paste the GAMMA RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/modpack_patches/appdata/user.ltx to the Anomaly/appdata folder

Easy

Delete Anomaly/appdata/shader_cache folder.

Easy as well

Did it anyway

[mystic oar]

Heavily modified majestic weatherfx clean preset, well I say heavily but I merely just enabled/disabled a few things and moved some sliders around

[glossy zinc]

btw you have wrong dir for that file. On my PC it was unzipped to (...)/GAMMA RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_patches/appdata/user.ltx instead of GAMMA RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/modpack_patches/appdata/user.ltx

or maybe i should compy G.A.M.M.A to RC3/.Grok's Modpack Installer/ ?

[gaunt trellis]

So just a quick question. Got the newest version on installer (3.6) and did a complete update. And the Dark Signal rep - sound active. Still does it not work. Have been searching here but in vain. Anyone have ideas?

[brisk zinc]

It's an old guide, probably with a different path

But it should work

[brisk zinc]

Don't use multiple channels to ask a single question, please

Where is it in your mod list?

[gaunt trellis]

Sry for that! It´s in the "Gamma Fixes"

[brisk zinc]

Well that's the good place

Where, exactly?

This is where I got it

[sand eagle]

Night vision device vs high contrast sight? Which would you recommend guys?

[glossy zinc]

Any idea why quick saves (and loads) do not work? I think the game is saved while pressing F5 but I do not see quicksaves on the list. Pressing F9 only pauses the game. And while trying to use Last Save from the menu, the game crashed. And these are the last tines from log file (error message got translated on its own):
'''
stack trace:

[error][ 996] : Pokrywaj¹ce si꠺darzenie We/Wy nie jest w stanie sygnalizacji.

'''

Is there a way to unlock quicksaves? [I do not trust Stalker games, pretty much I need to save before moving my mouse becusae I expect some crash xDD]

[sudden egret]

You can only save at campfires and in friendly bases by default but you should get a message about that

[glossy zinc]

Ok maybe Sidorovich bunker is not counted as friendly base then, I was worried xD

[mystic oar]

you're able to save in his bunker, at least I'm able to

[thorn tundra]

what are the mods that add the english voice lines? i wanna turn them off but don't know what they're called

[wise sparrow]

you can always make a save and try them both out but the night vision isn't shader based so it looks kind of silly imo. the high contrast option can be useful for removing the scope blur on the sv98 so I usually go with that

[thorn tundra]

they're j sorta goofy lmfao

[brisk zinc]

Probably this one but I'm not sure about it

[thorn tundra]

yeah that's it

also i can't seem to loot any dead bodies?

is this a mechanic or am i missing something because i can pick up items no problem it's just i can't lkoot dead bodies

[mystic oar]

With the last update you can't inspect weapons anymore right?

make sure this mod is disabled

Sorry I forgot to answer you completely, because I only told you "yes you can"

[teal citrus]

Thanks a lot guys, now i can appreciate the nice weapon models

[versed cedar]

Is it recommended to turn off ssdo

[wise sparrow]

you need it on for screen space shaders to work iirc

[versed cedar]

Ok got it

[wise sparrow]

turning down or disabling smaa will give you a better performance boost

also turning down grass settings as well

[sand eagle]

Thank you my friend

Guys i activated agressor reshade mod but i can't see it's options in reshade app in game

[wise sparrow]

only weather configs and ground textures get extracted you'll have to manually install the reshade

but doesn't aggressor only use some legacy stuff in old versions of reshade? it might not be possible with the default gamma setup

[sand eagle]

Btw it's not an additional mod installed. It's already included in GAMMA but it's not activated by default.

[wise sparrow]

correct. if you right click on the mod and then choose open in explorer you'll see it's only those files i mentioned

[glossy zinc]

a gun I found has extra scope (I cannot detach that scope) attached, but I do not know how to use it. Tried to use "6" but nothing happened. I think it is an AK 105 Special

This is where i have it. Well i supose it would be in the right place, but, i just dont know where to begin wthis this :P.

[north turret]

Is the lack of in game rain droplets on top of my mask a bug or can they be turned on?

(or is my DX8 potato laptop the issue?)

(Because DX9 doesn't work in gamma somehow...)

[elder rain]

The eggheads want me to find some radiated artefact samples in a radiated workship, but I got no clue as to where it is supposed to be.

[north turret]

Actually none of my DX9.exe's work!

[elder rain]

I think they screwed up with the DX9 and ltx updates, if you look at the "Last modified date" you will see date last changed 06/29 for them, except for the DX9 which are at 02/13

Also nevermind my question, I found the workshops.

[kindred dock]

how does the armor trader work ?

[mystic oar]

you can trade certain armors of a different faction for one of another faction, has to be the same armor tier (light, medium, etc.)

[kindred dock]

ahh okay

thanks for the help

[stoic moth]

any way to fix these glossy vehicles?

[warped ginkgo]

dx8 doesn't have those shaders

[scarlet ember]

Why is there a button to switch silencer? (7 default)

[warped ginkgo]

did you install any mod that changes textures?

[stoic moth]

only golden autumn. nothing that should touch vehicles other than whatever texture pack is standard for gamma

[warped ginkgo]

Ok

Try messing with gloss_min values

[pure star]

General question here so i walked thru a radar anamoly and now my dude is making a shivering sound was it the cause of the anamoly or is he just cold because its raining.

[stoic moth]

Your pay health is probably low

[pure star]

oh ok

[lethal hinge]

the entrance to x-19 is the bunker in the top right / ne of radar map, tunnel to pripyat or something similar

[north turret]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- oh well...

[brisk zinc]

I can't check in game right now but look in settings, there should be something about it

[brisk zinc]

That's because GAMMA doesn't work with DX9, stick with DX8 and DX10

[elder rain]

What about DX11?

[brisk zinc]

DX11 is the default

[versed cedar]

So what unclick hide body because of lag

Yusss

[wise sparrow]

suppressors wear out your barrel faster and also cause your weapon to overheat faster. mag dumping with a suppressor on will very quickly overheat your weapon which makes it degrade very quickly.

[versed cedar]

Is it just me or is the faction sin like super overpowered. I dropped like 2 7.62 x 51 AP rounds into a trainee and he didn’t go down

Like at this point they might as well be monolith lol super bullet spongy

[wise sparrow]

they got buffed to take only 25% damage but also drop artefacts and generally better gear

they tend not to have a lot of armor so fmj rounds work just as well on most of them

[versed cedar]

Oooohhh ok I was wondering I was like there’s no way in hell

[scarlet ember]

oh, interesting. Was wondering if it was something like that

[wanton trellis]

hey there, whats max supply lvl of traders?

[graceful iron]

you cant buy them, only start with one or craft it

[brisk zinc]

Damn, I should have spend these points on the binoculars then.

[simple cipher]

do you have to give the technician some tools for his supply level to increase?

yep, that's it

[earnest oriole]

what do I do with monolith cache?

[simple cipher]

am i missing something or is it not possible to repair weapon parts below 60% condition?

yes you can't do that

[simple cipher]

oh damn....

[placid zinc]

my armor got sucked by a technican, and when i want to get it back from him i only get a message "yes, here you are" but i dont get my armor back and im wondering if there is a fix that isnt loading back save

[simple cipher]

hey, i just found out now by accident that you can actually repair parts with at least 10% condition, but that special repair kit is around 50.000 fucking roubles

[earnest oriole]

yeah don't buy that

or you can just have the corresponding repair kit for your weapon and just replace the part you want

[simple cipher]

yeah, i know that, but i dont have replacement parts

ty anyways

[earnest oriole]

you don't need replacement parts

[simple cipher]

i'm not sure i understand this, then

[earnest oriole]

It takes 1 charge of your weapon repair kit to replace one part

hello there, where i can get more mags for this?? or can i craft them?

[north turret]

i dont think you need a magazine for that gun

same with the mosin

[placid zinc]

I reloaded a save already, but sometimes a technician can bug and decide to not give you your stuff back after he ends the upgrade or repair. I dont know what is the issue of this, but i suppose giving him a couple of your items at the same time and having the "delayed repairs" option may be the problem.

[brisk zinc]

Ah yes

Don't use that option

That's what I wanted to know

[royal glacier]

yes it needs with the weapon kit

[north turret]

oh i thought it was just the regular kar98k in terms of the magazine i have no idea you might as well try turning on buyable mags from traders

Any way to launch GAMMA through Steam as STALKER: CoP, so hours would count into Steam?
You can do this with default Anomaly by renaming main Anomaly folder and executable DX11AVX, but can't understand how to make same with GAMMA.

Why does 7.92x57 deal less damage and penetration than 7.62x54?

[quartz portal]

Hello bratans, is there any way to change the pseudogiants drop chances ? I've killed like 10 so far and all of them had "nothing useful"

[graceful iron]

nato factions have access to k98 as a starter weapon and its easy to find and repair with a historic repair kit, lower damage and penetration are the balancing factors

[graceful iron]

this depends on your survival skill in the skill system and if you are using/carrying a hunting kit or not but giants do have an awfully low chance for any parts

not sure where to change it

[quartz portal]

I have one and I am like level 9 or 10, still no dic

Clear sky is NATO faction and it didn't have it as a starter at all

If I have a decent PC what should I try HDAO? Or will it just cause weird stuff to happen

HDAO and HBAO is just a matter of what you have

Nvidia or AMD

I don't remember which is for which though

[north turret]

yea I have nvidia

[brisk zinc]

I think HBAO it's for Nvidia but I could be wrong

Try to use the search button

There should be something somewhere

[zenith dragon]

yep hbao is nvidia
hdao amd

[north turret]

ok ty, and if I kill somebody and nobody sees it, then its not like that faction just somehow automatically knows? Like if I am a merc and I kill a bandit and nobody is around, nobody knows right?

[brisk zinc]

If they don't see you, you should be fine

Make sure you're really alone

[north turret]

Im going to try the settings you posted on here a while back, you posted some screenshots of your settings which is pretty helpful

[brisk zinc]

I hope you don't mean that stuff where I put everything to max

[north turret]

i mean...maybe... is that for screenshots and not to play with?

i have an i7-9700KF and a 3070

[grave plover]

go SSDO because its tweaked by Screen Space Shaders and its more actual

[brisk zinc]

No no it's not for screenshot, you may use it if you want

That "setup" was only a "joke"

Because the discussion was "I have everything maxed out and I have 60 fps"

Me, who own a 3070 and a AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, couldn't just believe that

Because there's no way you can max everything and still get 60 fps

Turns out, if you lower your grass to the very minimum, you can maximize everything

Or, at least, it's what I can do because my PC is powerful enough

[north turret]

I tried it and it worked, but the grass was killing me so im back to default

[brisk zinc]

I know

The grass is the real problem

Also that sun is just wrong

But again it was basically for the meme

I didn't even know it would be that bad

[north turret]

I just found it using the search so I had no context, I was like man this dude just doesn't like grass I guess but boy does it look goofy

[brisk zinc]

Nah like I said it was all a meme

But it's doable

My FPS were good

I still play with framelimiter on 60 because I don't need that amount of FPS

Also because you just can't reach it

It's literally impossible to constantly have more than 100+ FPS

I mean I've tried, that video with those settings is a proof

[glossy zinc]

Is it safe to use some existing stashes as my personal stash or should I figure out how to make stash out of backpack?

thx

If you ever get a stash coordinate right in your personal stash, don't worry

Nothing will go wrong

where do screenshots go?

[warped ginkgo]

SSS requires SSDO activated to function

at least that's what the author said in the comments

sth like that

however u need to use F12

to make a screenshot

[brisk zinc]

!screen

[raw raft]

Since we don't care about your second monitor or your desktop image, you can:

1. Press F12
2. Press PRTSC (Print Screen on your keyboard)
3. Windows key + Shift + S, which let you choose what part of the screen you want to copy (Snipping Tool™️ is subject to Windows own settings, not game settings, meaning gamma, brightness, and colour balance will be different.)

heh

[vapid peak]

You don't use any?

[velvet monolith]

Use only SMAA. Having both destroys FPS.

[mystic oar]

grok pushed an update ( #📢development ) to address that

[mystic oar]

none

though if you wanted to use one, smaa

[vapid peak]

I figured I have only smaa on but my friend has a fresh install getting set up so he asked

[mystic oar]

or use reshade anti-aliasing like fxaa or msaa

but it does impact fps a lot

[vapid peak]

Well all 3 do different things

One will focus more on a CPU while SMAA is GPU based

smaa then

What am i supposed to do in this mission? I searched every inch of the Lab and found nothing

[north turret]

its not that area

[north turret]

its the "lab" part that is caved in

[north turret]

follow the road that goes north, not to Pripyat but to a dead end

[vernal wharf]

The North east thing? I already went there and took some documents, the quest finished and gave the other three "Find three artifact sample..."

[north turret]

also if you search the mission names in the discord search bar you'll find explanations since a lot of these missions are weird, like artifacts not being in the right spot

[vernal wharf]

Like it was one of the two missions the egghead gave me, it was called "Search the entrance of X-19"

Only thing that pops up when i search lol

[vapid peak]

You don't use it? I had mine at very high

[scarlet ember]

Resolution trumps AA

and also increases the performance cost further still

Don't need smaa at 3440

[north turret]

I searched "x-19 documents" and better things came up if you jump to the conversations. I remember also having to find artifacts at radar, like in the woods. I don't remember exactly what I did unfortunately.

[tidal raft]

It is more dependant on 'ppi' rather than sheer volume of pixels.
Stuff further away will still yield aliasing at 4k.

There are also more forms of aliasing than one.

[vernal wharf]

Yeah but like, that is a "different" mission, i will do that now but the Egghead game me two missions, the picking up the docs that transformed to collect artifacts in the woods and i still have this one

Im going to search for the artifacts first i will worry later lol

[tidal raft]

The document enables you to find the artefacts.

Both will disappear when you hand in the artefacts.

They drop artifacts at a higher rate

[versed cedar]

I know but is there a mod that makes that change to them or is it just base gamma that makes those changes

And is it safe to remove it or nah

[sudden egret]

It's in GAMMA Close Combat and probably not safe to disable

https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/compare/5349a7abcacd...1b9ecac8b9c1

You can see the changes here and maybe make a mod to revert them

[versed cedar]

Ok thanks a lot I’ll take a look if not than ima just have to go and get a bigger gun 😂

[sudden egret]

give it a chance, it's actually a fun change

Makes the mortal sin quest actually fun instead of a cakewalk

[versed cedar]

That’s a great point actually i will give it a go and try to farm better guns

[dense ridge]

Is Butcher the best place to sell mutant parts?

Also, are the storyline quests listed in the manual section a comprehensive list? Or is it a list that GAMMA modpack adds specifically? Please note I have never played vanilla anomaly. I went straight into GAMMA.

[mystic oar]

yes

but keep them for random radiant quests

like when a stalker asks you to find a couple zombie hands or something

[north turret]

How can you exchange weapon barrels can't seem to figure it out

[mystic oar]

at a vice

[carmine wyvern]

Or with the appropriate Repair Kit

[vapid peak]

Best to sell mutant MEAT to

[carmine wyvern]

Scientists are the best to sell the rare Parts to i.e. Chimera Claws, Pseudogiant Eyes or Bloodsucker Jaws

[dense ridge]

@carmine wyvern appreciate the clarification

@carmine wyvern Are scientists ecologist?

[carmine wyvern]

Scientists are the guys chilling in the Bunkers

The one close to Yanov Station in Jupiter and the Bunker in Yantar

[quiet isle]

small question, i just got back to radar a day or 2 after disabling the brain scorcher, i need to kill a few monolith and i had to pass 3 controler, 2 pseudo giant and a few dog to get to them, the question is am i unlucky or is that normal (well i should say am i lucky since those guy are amont the easyest kill in the game with siaga 12 and slug)

sorry, 4 controler now and 2 polthergueist

[cunning gale]

Is there a way to disable campfire mode in GAMMA? I’m really new to modding and all that sort of stuff. I always have campfire mode disabled before going into a new game.

[quiet isle]

look at the faq, there is a walkthrough

[cunning gale]

Alright, thank you. This is my first time with the modpack so I’m not to sure what to look out for.

[quiet isle]

or you can just open the mod config menu and disable the part where you need to be near a camp fire

[cunning gale]

Alr bet

[vapid peak]

The campfire mod is called yacs

Disable it in the MCM first in game and if that doesn't work then disable it in the mods in the launcher

[cunning gale]

I disabled it and it works just fine, thanks for the help.

[wise sparrow]

yeah that sounds about right. mutant spawns get more dangerous the longer your save goes so keep that in mind as well.

[quiet isle]

oh, good to know but i was not expecting that much lol, but at least those are easy prey even if they are dangerous, i like those in fact, i always struggle with faster mutant like the blood and psy sucker or the snork

i am around day 21 in my save file so i wonder how dangerous it will get when i add 10 or so day

[muted spindle]

How shoud i get a lap top in Agroprom. I have psy helmet, eat psyblocker and still my character blow his mind out of the head

[wise sparrow]

psy helmet doesn't protect against psy anomalies so you need a helmet or artefact with psy protection. try dumping your inventory in a nearby box so you can move faster then use a med and try and grab it and jump out the window instead of trying to go back the way you came.

[muted spindle]

Ok, need to find a seva suit or something

[willow hawk]

Welcome to the north

[dense ridge]

does the guy that offers to take you to yantar and other places (this guy is in the clear sky base) is that another way to fast travel or does he just become your companion?

[willow hawk]

20 days is like max difficulty

[willow hawk]

Fast travel

[ornate skiff]

is it normal if i can not exchange armors?

[dense ridge]

awesome thanks Grok. Haven't had this much since the souls games

[ornate skiff]

like i press the option and nothing happens

[warped ginkgo]

there are conditions

you need to have another factions (light/med/heavy) outfit and talk to your own faction trader and have the money required in inventory

example, if you are CS you can't bring your faction trader a cs-1 armor and expect it to be swapped

it needs to be from a different faction

if it doesn't work, then record a video or take screenshots and post it in bugs

[mystic oar]

can only be certain armours too

https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/blob/main/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_addons/Grok's and Darkasleif's Armor Exchange/gamedata/scripts/grok_armor_convert.script

[willow hawk]

In before "I'm trying to trade a bandit jacket for a light armor"

[ornate skiff]

yeah it works, lol thanks

[rugged sable]

I do not really think this is gamma related, I dont think so because I experienced it with vanilla anomaly, but I got not place where I can ask. So, I was in red forest, fighting with monolith, after it was over I went to sleep. Today after I loaded in, the burer's sound when it gets close enough constantly playing. Nothing helps, maybe level transition but its far away, I am literally middle of red forest. Anyone got this problem once in a while? Or any way to fix this?

[queen torrent]

Heya, does anyone know if theres a way to fix the "escort the ecologists" quest?
Like via console command or something?
I did talk to them outside of the yantar bunker but they still follow me and the marker is still locked onto the base. Ive got the reward and everything but they dont despawn and the job doenst set to complete

[dense ridge]

there's a guide in FAQ for broken quests I think

with a pdf

[graceful iron]

if you are sure there is no burer then try restarting the game

[rugged sable]

Will do, sec

I feel dumb now...

thank you 😄

[carmine wyvern]

happened to me aswell after encountering a burer. level change or restarting the game fixed it

[next lark]

Is this a bug? I failed upon receiving the mission 🤔

Or if he's dead is there anyway i can spawn him in via console?

[tidal raft]

!screen

[raw raft]

Since we don't care about your second monitor or your desktop image, you can:

1. Press F12
2. Press PRTSC (Print Screen on your keyboard)
3. Windows key + Shift + S, which let you choose what part of the screen you want to copy (Snipping Tool™️ is subject to Windows own settings, not game settings, meaning gamma, brightness, and colour balance will be different.)

[willow hawk]

Ah this bug again....

Potentially yes...

I need to disable the renegades spawn at the church I think

He should be invincible though

[tidal raft]

You don't think it could be Grulag's half-pop add-on?

[queen pendant]

Ok so how do I go back to having a green grass nd trees with leaves all I have is a barren world I want overgrowth?

[tidal raft]

!zone

!deadzone

Thanks fixed been trying to figure it out legend

[next lark]

Thanks for the reply! Perhaps i'll just do the mission on my next faction playthrough 😁

[buoyant grove]

is there a way to manually reset the fast travel timer, i had mine set to 4hrs and i just went to try and fast travel and it says i have to wait 260hrs

[glossy zinc]

What gun should I look for in early game as a Loner (atm using SKS + I have got 105 Specialist with cheap NVM scope, silencer but I didnt get right tools to repair it so it hurts to use, and didnt figured it yet where to buy BR2/BR3 ammo [tbh I didnt try to move firsther than Cordon, Great Swamps and Garbage])?

[simple cipher]

how do i know which package was the one from the "rf" thingy?

[scarlet ember]

Sks is good for early game

[simple cipher]

i got more than 1 in my inventory

[scarlet ember]

Quicksave quickload

[simple cipher]

ok but how does that help?

[scarlet ember]

50/50 chance

[simple cipher]

i dont understand

i just picked up a package, and the RF receiver beeping stopped

[scarlet ember]

So open one

[simple cipher]

now i simply am unsure which of the packages from my inventory is the one from the RF quest

[scarlet ember]

If the quest fails, load save

[simple cipher]

oh ok ok

i understand now

[lament spruce]

why can't i use smg as a third(vision/pistol slot)weapon?

i can do it with p90 before but now i can't do it with mp5 or with tmp.

[tranquil idol]

what are daddy tokens

im so confused

[zenith dragon]

daddy token lets you save outside of campfires if you were in the wild for 5 minutes i think

[tranquil idol]

ah okay

thanks man

[simple cipher]

maintain gun -> replace part -> part now has 99% condition, but the replacement parts that were supposed to get on the gun are still in my inventory, am i missing something?

[versed cedar]

Which mod removes the headlamp animation does anyone know

[simple cipher]

are you not supposed to have replacement parts when using the maintain gun system?

[tidal raft]

Yes, instead a charge is consumed from the cleaning kit.

[simple cipher]

ooooh so you can actually clean/replace weapon parts "out of nowhere"

[tidal raft]

Yes.

[simple cipher]

oh

[simple cipher]

oooh you're right

i have to do the "field strip" and then attach the replacement parts, im so stupid

and this wont consume the repair kit, the more you know

[tidal raft]

[tranquil idol]

is there anywhere i can get better helmets

I still got starter one, and i cant find any at all

[tidal raft]

Marked stashes or dead stalkers.

[tranquil idol]

Shit, the only stash i got is in red forest

[tidal raft]

Perform more tasks to receive more stash locations.

[tranquil idol]

Ok will do man

thanks

[carmine wyvern]

Only P90 and MP7 work according to the tooltip ive read

[simple cipher]

any way to change the reticle on the kobra sight?

[versed cedar]

There’s a mod pack on moddb called clad

Dots and reticle extravaganza @simple cipher

Just open the pack and find the reticle for you

[willow hawk]

Change the day in Alife optimization file

[simple cipher]

thanks

suddenly the icons of my companions stopped appearing

[lament spruce]

any tips on how to get near corpse disposer and hells walls?

[simple cipher]

also, the mags hud disappeared

numpad Enter fixed it

[simple cipher]

is the tinnitus sound caused by the controller?

[scarlet ember]

[fluid tartan]

Henllo is there a way to enable trading with random stalkers?

[zenith dragon]

its hidden for now

still you can press x while talking to them

to trade

just dont buy weapons and stuff so economy still good

[brisk zinc]

Or you can disable the mod

[tranquil idol]

is there a way to change the starting loadout for stuff cos like unisg should not just have a ppsh or something

[fluid tartan]

ohhhh aight aight thanks

[brisk zinc]

Just use debug mode and give yourself this gun you absolutely want that you can't live without it

[tranquil idol]

aight ty bro

i have a quest(artifact hunting) that involves the corpse disposer(army warehouse), how do i get near the anomaly without getting killed by the chemicals?

[tidal raft]

Better mask, outfit, and medicine.

[fiery herald]

Is there some sort of a list with all added music in gamma?

[lament spruce]

thanks stalker

[tidal raft]

[gleaming robin]

Do you use any settings to make the game visually smoother ? I set head bob to 0 and that helped but there is still some Stuttering. I get 55-60 frames and use V-Sync

[tidal raft]

Don't use v-sync, disable core 0 from tskmngr, play in fullscreen.

[brisk zinc]

How did you set head bobbing to 0?

[gleaming robin]

Visual settings Hud/UI

Set slider to 0

[tranquil idol]

is there a way to remove this fast travel wait time

mine is stuck on 1 hour

[gleaming robin]

Already better results although I don´t know how to disable core 0 in the taskmanager

!core
