[pine swallow]

It is already, if you mean exos

Still cheeseable

[severe jay]

ik

[pine swallow]

Literally any tough mission is cheeseable

[severe jay]

not if there are anomalies around

the easiest cheese i can think of for these is sniping from long range, force the player to get close and find cover.

[pine swallow]

Anyway, I don't really care about balancing at this point

Oh btw Grok

Good luck trying to read my code :)
Won't be easy. If you'll really need it, start with igi_generic_task.script

[severe jay]

[whole jungle]

[lost cosmos]

I'm only seeing WTF tasks, no others?

[vernal forge]

i think it's included there already

enable it, check in MCM menu the task tab

[topaz abyss]

Hey so the Project Inverno mod fucks with MCM. I seem to have less control than normal. It fucks with the whole menu UI in general as well.

Removing all MCM scripts from the mod seems to have fixed it.

[whole jungle]

Texture pack that fucks everything what the hell

[topaz abyss]

Just has it's own main menu UI /music/video.

[severe jay]

.

gamma already has main menu UI/music

[topaz abyss]

I know

I was testing the new snow texture pack.

[severe jay]

okay...

[nova mauve]

Anyone tried Absolute nature? Using it now, liking the ground and grass textures, but this weird thing where it renders these shadows in a small up-close radius, makes it look weird.. any ideas what this is? Doesnt seem to be reshade related

[coarse dawn]

Grass shadows or everywhere? A video or some screenshots would help

[livid trench]

Small question, there is a chance that i can delete bas from pack? I really hate it.

[severe jay]

you hate bas?

i guess... but that would lead to deleting many other mods and patches

[livid trench]

Yep, i prefer playing only with AWAR and blindside weapon pack. There is some things in bas that I don't like.

[vernal forge]

you can play without bas

[livid trench]

It is breaking for me fell of old good stalker. Bas is to tacticool for me.

[vernal forge]

but you will have to reinstall a lot of mods to disable the patches

you could start clicking bas addon in the mo2 list and see with what it conflicts with

[severe jay]

i told you...

[livid trench]

Holy jesus

[severe jay]

way too many mods

you can still give it a shot if you are willing to go that far for "immersion"

[livid trench]

Sooo...there is nothing I can do right now. I just wat all goodies thats gamma offer but wihout BAS and EFT reposition, thats all.

[coarse dawn]

You can try, it's possible but you'll fail while organising them couple times, you might need to reinstall all the mods again from the installer because corruption happens if you fiddle with it too much. If you have the time tho, go for it.

[unreal pawn]

Hiya! Just got GAMMA running an added a few of the addons Grok was planning to for the next RC. Quick question though, am I free to disable the Body Health System and its corresponding rebalance patch? I'm assuming I would have to also disable medical item changes

[spare flare]

is there any way to get arszis radiation overhauul to work with GAMMA?

[coarse dawn]

Dunno what you mean by "am I free to disable" but that's your game, you can do whatever you want on it. Some #📎mods-added-for-next-build works pretty well without a hitch but your mileage may be wary. Best way to learn is experience it by trying if it's broken, you can always delete the mods folder within GAMMA and do a complete installation.

[thorn shell]

is there any that changes the mask overlay?

[whole jungle]

Untick GAMMA no mask overlay

[outer girder]

if theres anyone here to help me mod, Shadow of Chernobyl shoot me a DM thank you.

[vernal forge]

what

[severe jay]

its fine they thought it was a soc server or something, explained what the server is for already

told them to still ask if someone knows something about modding soc maybe with a strike of luck someone here knows

[unreal pawn]

Yeah I know I CAN disable what I want. Was just concerned that it would break 50 other mods if I did. I tried it and things were fine :p

[coarse dawn]

I'm glad things were fine, in case disabling or adding something, enable them and see what they are overwrite etc to be safe. And when disabling, search by the name and look for any compatibility patches.

[regal veldt]

is adding Arx to the modlist possible/advisable or a redundant mod because of the current addon list with Gamma?

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/arx-artefact-anomalies-restoration-experiment

[upbeat saffron]

parts of it are already in GAMMA

and with the current artifact rebalance it would be indeed redundant

[regal veldt]

alright thanks

[whole jungle]

Yup what Strelok said

[livid trench]

Question, if I remove Gamma Economy, vendors will still have special repair items that you add on you own? grok?

[whole jungle]

Special repair items ?

[livid trench]

Aw, nevermind. I only want to know, that expect Gamma Economy some mods touches traders stocks?

[whole jungle]

Yes

[livid trench]

Can I know whats mods do that? I planned to play with trader overhaul stocks, and I don't want to broke something important with traders.

[whole jungle]

Artefacts Reinvention

[livid trench]

Can I play that with trader overhaul or something will broke out?

[livid trench]

Somebody recognize problem? I trying to use cement view models with blindside weapon pack (for this I installed gallus viewmodels to correct it) There is a problem only with three weapons, vz61, sks and ppsh. Anybody help? Please.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VLh2NB6FqU

Ouuu, I forgot about that, and I'm using AWAR withs this.

[whole jungle]

Why using cement stuff....

[livid trench]

I prefer that view model, its closer and more centered (and weapon feel bigger) than EFP one.

[whole jungle]

Well, that's like super fucking bullshit level of compatibility problems

So good luck with that

[livid trench]

[severe jay]

have fun

[livid trench]

Thanks...xD

[vernal forge]

you can use draggable hud editor

to fix your position problems

nvm, saw your vidoe

[civic vortex]

Cement has malware inside. Have fun

[whole jungle]

Yup that too

[final tusk]

bruh what

Cement put in fucking malware in his addon, and it went under the radar?

Damn, Moddb need some real moderation.

[coarse dawn]

Dude is mining in celeron CPU's

GPU optional

[faint cypress]

wait what

[whole jungle]

Multiple antivirus softwares freaked out, and it was removed from moddb for that reason

[faint cypress]

its still on moddb tho

or am i thinking of adifferent one

[whole jungle]

Maybe it was reuploaded without the virus or something

[faint cypress]

it was the one AWAR directed me to

[whole jungle]

Well. I would recommend to ignore cement pos

[faint cypress]

(until i stopped using AWAR because its broken)

anyways, its probably some virus-less reupload since my antivirus didnt freak the balls out

[whole jungle]

No it's not

RC2 load order is better to avoid potential issues with AWAR

[faint cypress]

ah

do you know why it uses partial reload sound on empty reload?

[whole jungle]

let's see if it's fixed with RC2 load order

I'm dropping support and fixes for RC1 currently

because otherwise RC2 will never be released XD

[tiny birch]

Won't any fixes for RC1 stuff carry over for RC2 generally? Well unless the reordering of stuff fixes a lot of stuff I guess

[whole jungle]

Yes it will

[tiny birch]

Looking forward to RC2 man B)
Hoping one day I wont have to turn all grass options to 0 to get above 60fps but that's probably not something a mod could do, more of an Anomaly Dev thing?

[whole jungle]

More of a computer rig problem

[tiny birch]

Eh my 1070 can handle any game easily but Anomaly needs a lot of sacrifices

I turned of all Anti Aliasing in favour for MFAA in Nvidia control panel, and added some sharpening in reshade, works pretty well

[coarse dawn]

Note that rendering grass and additional lod settings regarding clutters are mostly hogs the CPU, not GPU. No matter how capable your GPU is, CPU bottleneck is hell

[pulsar bloom]

Hey, I know there's a patch for Weightless ammo for gboobs but how do I make it work?
Because if I add it, only make the standard ammo weightless and the BAS ammo still have weight
I try multiple things but it just doesn't work at all or crash the game.

[tiny birch]

Grass is CPU dependant? Weird couldve sworn it was graphics intensive, Ill look into if Anomaly is using my CPU properly cause a 4790k should be pretty good still

[hybrid scarab]

what being bound to a single core does to a mf

[coarse dawn]

Depends on the engine but most of the time, grass lod and rendering distance is bound to CPU.

Like an example about UE4, if you change the DX version from 11 to 12, you'll notice the grass is not much of an issue because of the multithreading support.

But Xray is so shit that it won't gain anything from DX12

[severe jay]

unless there is a patch for bas with the weightless ammo addon then you will have to go to the files and change each ammo yourself, its not hard but kind of time consuming

[pulsar bloom]

That's not a problem, I got time
Where do I go to make this changes? Because I also notice using the patch I said deletes the icon of BAS ammo and that's even more annoying
Sorry for the many questions, kind of rookie with this things

[severe jay]

the patch is for GBOOBS ?

it probably overwrites the bas ammo

does weightless ammo itself have no patch for bas by any chance? i thought i seen something about that on the moddb page once

[pulsar bloom]

Yeah I have been looking, but whenever I want to add it to the list when you press manual on MO2 and the directory? Idk I'm away of my pc right now, but the thing is it conflicts and crash the game

And yes the patch is for GBOOBS

I read a reply around here and I don't know if maybe I'm dumb and doing something wrong or what

[severe jay]

find these ammo files in mo2 and right click > reveal in explorer> look through each one of these ammo files and change each ammo's weight. after you are done keep a back up of each one so you can easily apply the changes even after an update

@pulsar bloom

remove the weightless ammo addon completely

thats literally all it does

but just in case i found the wrong overwrite, only change one ammo and then load into the game and check if that made it weightless

so you can make sure

[pulsar bloom]

Will try this and get back to you, thanks man!

[pulsar bloom]

@severe jay Hey man, I have been looking and yeah those are some ammo files but I can't seem to find the BaS ammo to change the weight, imma try to look at it myself, but if you have more info that would be great!

[severe jay]

this file?

it has bas ammo in it

yea i just checked

its that one @pulsar bloom

[pulsar bloom]

Ah yes thanks! I sincerely don't know why I couldn't find it.
I have like shit tons of files and I had look at it by using the filter bar, idk why I think about that earlier. . .

Anyways thanks for helping and having patience with me! 👍

[severe jay]

no problem

[radiant sapphire]

Im trying to make a model/texture mod to work. The model is displaying correctly but i cant get the textures to work no what i try. the model is just a dark blue color with ! Can't find texture 'image texture' in the log.

[vernal forge]

if the texture has a custom name

Maybe you have to edit the ltx of the object you want to assign the texture? No idea how It works

[radiant sapphire]

I only have 2 files:
gamedata/meshes/anomaly_weapons/wpn_mp5/wpn_mp5_hud.ogf
gamedata/textures/wpn/wpn_mp5/wpn_mp5.dds

they should be the same name as the original

[vernal forge]

Try askinf in modding-arts channel

In thestalker anomaly discord

[radiant sapphire]

Ok

Thx

[manic robin]

I can vouch for this. I have an RTX3070ti and still get stutter due to my I7 6700k and 2133mhz ram

Also playing on a HDD rather than an SSD/NVME will also hinder you

Moreover in the terms of shitty load times but also in other places

[coarse dawn]

I didn't know HDD would effect other than loading screens in this engine

[raven roost]

We're talking about a game released in 2009 with a 2005 engine, it's a miracle it works in the first place

And on top of that, the game is bombarded with mods

I think GAMMA on a HDD is literal hell, I'm playing it on a SSD with a 3070 and it still takes his sweet time to load

[coarse dawn]

3070 and ti is good and all but mang, nv really keked you guys with 8 gigs of vram, advertising that card is better than 2080ti in the first place.

And then 3060

[spark scroll]

i tried to run gamma with Arszi Radiation overhaul

put the addon at the bottom

[coarse dawn]

Gamma already has radiation overhaul of its own

[severe jay]

already pointed that out but "arszi's radiation overhaul is so much better"

so dont bother

if you can help with getting it to run, be their guest

[coarse dawn]

I'm just gonna

[whole jungle]

Untick GAMMA dynamic radiations and GAMMA Radiation Effects Overhaul.

Enjoy pressing the weather key every minute with Arszi rads

Biggest issue: you most likely don't know what each addon is doing and you just follow what Arszi did blindly

But there's actually a lot of wrong doing in terms of gamedesign with his rads overhaul. That's why I spent time reworking everything radiation related in GAMMA

So that rads are still deadly, and annoying, but that you can survive a small rad patch if you have the correct helmet

[severe jay]

for some reason it seems to also have a thirst overhaul integrated, i think it causes issues as well?

[coarse dawn]

All these overhauls

[vital meteor]

with warmode, can we get the loners to initiate war with clearsky ?

[final tusk]

Yes you can, but why though?

[vital meteor]

They are taking over the world is why xD need to be pushed back a little. How can i get them to initiate war for a while?

[final tusk]

You can't, once you declare war on a faction, they'll remain hostile towards you and your faction until the relations are resetted to 0, that when they'll declare a truce with you and your faction.

[vital meteor]

opsy kinda did that yesterday to see what would happen and didnt notice much apart from them shooting me xD .....and ye i saved the game rofl. So by time they would declare a truce then?

[final tusk]

yeah

[analog pike]

So could you help me with HTS? @severe jay

[severe jay]

sorry what is HTS ? i dont think i recognize whats that short for

[analog pike]

New icons for the health bar, radiation, chemical, etc.

I can post link to the mod if you want.

[severe jay]

is it a mod list you made or a premade one?

[analog pike]

I did.

[severe jay]

like could there be something overwriting it ? also does it have any options in mcm?

(mod configuration menu)

you are using mo2 to install the mods right? since its just simple and easy to use

easily enable and disable mods and change priority

[analog pike]

I don't see any conflicts. Just these icons are always dark, bar is not active.

[analog pike]

Yes I use MO2

[severe jay]

anything in mcm?

[analog pike]

What do you mean by that, if there is any option in MCM to change ?

[severe jay]

any options that have to do with the mod yes

[analog pike]

No, it's just UI addon, there aren't any MCM settings.

[severe jay]

okay

[analog pike]

I mean, if I go to MO2 there is written MCM, but I can't see it in game.

[severe jay]

did you try having it enabled by itself, no other addons? just to check if its conflicting with something else

any other UI addons?

[analog pike]

No I didin't, i'll try it now.

[analog pike]

Yes I did.

And in other UI's didin't work.

Hmm, now it's working. But now in main game I have blackscreen.. ;d

[severe jay]

delete shader cache?

you had some shader mods?

[analog pike]

Only reshade

I'll try deleting

shader cache

Didin't work.

Still black.

Kinda strange ngl

[severe jay]

is this a new save?

[analog pike]

Yes, debug map.

[severe jay]

deleting shader cache normally solves black screen

not sure what else we could try

can you open inventory ?

[analog pike]

Yes.

And icons are fixed.

[severe jay]

so it was something conflicting with it

try changing the load order (priorities) i guess

[analog pike]

I don't understand with what addon, I don't see it.

[analog pike]

Orrrrr

[severe jay]

what other UI addons did you have?

[analog pike]

I found that Modular Tweak addon changed inventory UI, maybe it's a problem

[severe jay]

probably

i think its a priority thing that you can fix

not sure how

[analog pike]

Oh, cool.

So yes, I fixed it. This addon were conflicting HTS. Thank you for help. )

[severe jay]

[analog pike]

And you were right, I just put before UI addon and now it's working.

[severe jay]

glad to hear that works

[vital meteor]

Why is it that every time someone shoots someone they make peace ?

I want war but loners want to have bbqs -.-

[torpid cedar]

... That's some weird luck you got there.

[nova mauve]

What are peoples thoughts on this addon? Has anyone used it with Anomaly? It looks like it makes more 'patrols' of squads etc around the map, rather than they just kind of sit or circle around.. https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/living-zone-for-151-v23

[coarse dawn]

You can do the same things with ZCP (or w/e the name of that mod) I'm guessing?

[tame arrow]

Kinda happens with ZCP, even better honestly since of randomly made faction squads.

[coarse dawn]

Also living zone seems like doesn't have any configuration and this two alone might destroy some people's fps

[vital meteor]

Anyone has some good custom lists for the factions for warfare? Such that CS are not a plague, loners actually do something xD military to not be chillax and plenty of war between factions?

and renegades dont just vanish in an instant xD etc

all my muppets seem to do is make peace -.-

[nova mauve]

Type warfare into anomaly addons on moddb.. take your pick 😄

[nova mauve]

Anyone tried Dynamic mutants on top of GAMMA? Seems like some ok stuff in there, the DLTX version is cleaned up a bit.. Trying to get a bit of mutant variety, seems ok for the most part. But havent been able to get anything to spawn unless i manually spawn it in

[severe jay]

what does it actually do?

[nova mauve]

Spawns new types of mutants, and there's some wildlife foxes in there too.

Atleast, it's supposed to but i think it doesnt like another mod in Gamma, but i havent tested much,.

Bears, too.

Probably not very fitting with Stalker maybe.

[severe jay]

first you might want to check if it conflicts with any other mods

something overwriting its spawn scripts

zcp most likely

[knotty mesa]

Ay this point their basically tourists

Hello everyone, let me ask, Does weather configs may cause crash? Or they are incompatibility free? I'm using a misery Weather mod, the only files i use are located in "Gamedata > configs > enviroments" seems like it only affects/changes fog, lightning aspects of the weathers by using misery presets. I played yesterday using it and no crashes happened.

I'm asking cuz for example, textures won't cause incompatibilities (leading to CTD or game corruption), so i would like to know if these weather files have the same behavior, since it just changes the visual.

[whole jungle]

It can fuck you up with collection medium stuff from lightnings of storm weathers

I am trying to get Toxic Air working with gamma, but it seems that no one sells filters and tanks higher than t1. Can i somehow inject the filters from the mod in to the inventory of some traders?

[whole jungle]

You can I guess ?

[vital meteor]

in the fast travel limiter mcm script i set the setting from 12 to 0 in the script. however in game while mcm slider shows 0 the game is still saying i have 12 hours id = "next_travel_inc", type = "track", val = 2, min = 0, max = 168, step = 1, def = 24
any ideas

[severe jay]

it could be overwritten by another mods script ? look for the exact same script but use this part of mo2 to look for it. if i made a quick guess it could be one of the gamma fixes mods overwriting that script

[vital meteor]

I think the timer was still saved as i had FTed already and needed to totally count down to 0. As its working ok like this now. Ty tho

@wheat vine Nice work on the second version of the ModernUI. Much better. my only complaint is that when you scroll down in inventory and get to the bottom, then scroll back up the 'grids' don't align, and stuff ends up in the middle of the grids in inventory. Possibly just a ModernUI thing and nothing to do with your version but nice job man

How would I install Classic textures with GAMMA, I've heard It improves performance.

[spark crown]

---

Classic Textures

If you have a potato PC, install this and disable Agressor add-on in MO2.

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/classic-textures-151

[jovial granite]

Where would I put it in the modlist?

[spark crown]

I'd say just put it at the bottom of visual

[severe jay]

just put it at the very bottom of the mod list

[nova mauve]

What else do you guys run on/with gamma in terms of non-included addons?
Im running RC1 so a lot of these are in RC2 apparently, but would be curious to see what others have.

[tepid lark]

Restored recipes and removed the vice from toolkit because why not. Lot of these have been added in recent updates I believe 🙂

[vital meteor]

are there any mods that add new mission types like we have with clear sky defend xyz from attack.. but from factions we are friendly with or whaterver... but in all sectors not just swamps and frequent?

[slate dust]

@severe jay GTR might be compatible Grulag is using it with RC1 apparently

[severe jay]

i think it needs a certain fix from a certain someone, i really dont know what goes into any of that

[upbeat saffron]

You can delete all the shader files and just keep the texture/level files, that works. It looks different, but it works

[slate dust]

I did try that and didn't like it, it was indeed very different.

[whole jungle]

GTR works but it's unfinished and performance heavy

It's worth a try

It won't be in RC3 just yet

[slate dust]

the performance heavy part, thats what I didn't like

[tepid lark]

GTR gave me some stutter on a pretty beefy pc... Not a good idea to use it in the pack, people can always try it themselves if they want, without the optionals shaders that come with.

[whole jungle]

I would just like better grounds with parallax mapping actually

[raven oar]

Artefact varitionizer and a ton of different edits

[whole jungle]

OOF

How does that work with GAMMA artefacts reinvention ?

[wooden river]

Arszi Controller Overhaul, placeable campfires, and Simple Simplicity Graphical Settings are the only additional ones i use. Also been trying out animated movement beta recently.

[raven oar]

dont beat me daddy

[raven oar]

so far so good, really like the idea of getting 2 completelly differrent medusas, and dltx version is working stable ? for me at least, didnt see anything bugged related to this

[raven oar]

but for some people it totally will be not the most preferred addon, most of the time you're getting common and bad versions, and its totally random, so you can find one legendary empty without radiation early in the game, and at pripyat or zaton still getting common versions even at day 30

[raven oar]

But anyway I highly recommend it as an optional addon to the modpack

I also use Arszi Controller Overhaul and never had any crashes related to it.

[daring juniper]

how would i make this work with gamma? i play with open backpack animation with crouch

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/anomaly-open-backpack

[rain dagger]

is their any reason the total artifact and attachment overhaul isnt working in this pack or it it just not compatible at all

[whole jungle]

Can you link the addon ?

[rain dagger]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/total-artifact-and-attachment-overhaul

[severe jay]

probably because it conflicts with artefacts reinvention and perk based artefacts ?

[rain dagger]

tryed it with them off

dosent work still

[whole jungle]

What's in GAMMA is largely superior anyways

[rich skiff]

I use oao and I don't get any ctd talking to petrenko. Are you using the oao from moddb or GitHub?

[upbeat saffron]

All good, it was an issue with toxic air

[rain dagger]

i dont really see myself using artifacts anymore as attachments seem to be better than them then again their could be something im missing

[whole jungle]

Cause you don't studied the system enough

Best artefacts provide up to 70% or 90% elemental res and 28% ballistic res

@rain dagger

Buy can only be acquired in the north of crafted

And you need to combine several of them to be 100% condition

So it's a long term goal, but artefacts are super powerful

Also the perks of junk Artefacts can be super super powerful

Take damage mitigation ones in close range, equip an axe, and play Skyrim

[rain dagger]

XD thanks ill do more research

[whole jungle]

you can one on one melee pseudogiants

[final bear]

[daring juniper]

what's going on with FDDA being off by default? i have sometimes bug where the backpack doesn't appear at all and i lose complete hud. Is this the reason it's off or i managed to cause that on my own?

[severe jay]

busy hands and random crashes are caused by fdda

for your bug with UI and HUD not appearing i never seen that before

[daring juniper]

okay this helps a lot, i know now where i messed up, thanks man

[wooden river]

Anyone have experience with getting Autumn Season Redux (or parts of it) to work with GAMMA? Really like the weathers/skyboxes, but the mod obviously has lots of conflicts and i got got a ctd on start-up which ofcourse isnt surprising. Only using the /Environment folder didnt seem to work either, as the log says default_33 cant be loaded or something.

[tepid lark]

Start by extracting all the .db with axrtoolset so you can place the whole mod at the end of the load order and see all his files and all the conflicts. I know the weather is working as long as you put the skyboxes textures with, for the snowfall script to work you will need the textures in pfx folder I believe. I customized mine so I have the snowfall and some world textures, and I use grass from simple autumn / gardener of the zone. Also there is an issue with this mod, sounds folder path isn't correct it is "sounds/sounds/nature" and it should be "sounds/nature". If you want it only for the weather be aware that some are really really dark

One more thing your muzzle flashes will be fucked up if you use the particles.xr without the muzzle textures that comes with in the mod.

[wheat vine]

am actually interested about this

[wooden river]

I've got it working quite good mostly, but like you said, some weathers are really dark. I suppose i'd have to use the user.ltx from the ASR to make it better? Or just tweak the current one a bit.

[tepid lark]

Honestly I ended up just using some textures and like I said snowfall, because even with tweaked tonemap and lumscale values some weather were too dark for me and I didn't wanted to lose my time tweaking them

[daring juniper]

i think it would be awesome. First step towards outfit pockets/backpack separation like in tarkov..

[wheat vine]

why does everything have to be about tarkov

[bitter veldt]

isnt there literaly a modpack about tarkov?

[daring juniper]

we all hate it but they did a bunch of things really good and immersive

[vestal nexus]

Heya, I stopped playing for some time cause I had the svd bug and I couldn't be arsed to do the full reinstall. Doing it right now, and I have to ask again : How do you play without shaders ? Cause I can't use dvx11 since it's too harsh on my potato and i can't use the nvgs on dvx8. So I need to disable some addons, and delete the shaders cache right ?

[severe jay]

you could always ask in #🔨base-gamma-support if its the base gamma with nothing you changed, but basically disable aggressor, sky redux and cvfx in mo2 and then press home button while in main menu and uncheck all options from the shader menu

#old-framerate-optimisation turn off core 0 for anomaly

you can get better fps in full screen but tabbing out of the game can cause it to crash or lag, if you have the game on borderless you can tab out just fine but it will have a bit less fps

[whole jungle]

#old-framerate-optimisation

And it works. I'm playing with DX8 60+ fps on my potato laptop

[vestal nexus]

thankss

[nova mauve]

Does anyone know of any addons that make the traders and non-field NPC's like storyline npcs etc all look better?

[whole jungle]

DICK. It's already in gamma

[buoyant urchin]

for the life of me i can't get the mgs names for mercs or the european names for unisg to work

they always crash

[nova mauve]

You need to manually make the mod compatible, it's incompat with gamma. As to how you do this is unclear to me. I briefly looked at the code a couple of times, because i wanted to use it but ended up just giving up because it looked like too much work.

[vernal forge]

@nova mauve

can't send it in dm bc of the size

[nova mauve]

@whole jungle Any insight to how UI menu's work regarding texture scale? I made an upscaled 1k texture to 2k, but it's like the UI won't let it go past 1k and instead just expands the 2k texture at increased size.. Is there somewhere in UI that controls the maximum allowed scale of certain elements?

ui_new_game_popup.dds

[whole jungle]

Just don't

You need to adjust pixel coords of each element in textures_descr folder XML files

[karmic fog]

@whole junglehello

i return

dx11

non avx

[whole jungle]

Delete shader cache

Be sure to disable shaders add-ons maybe and Glowstick patch from R3zy

[karmic fog]

Thz

[nova mauve]

What extra addons are you guys running around with that GAMMA doesn't include? I'm always interested what people have. It's how you find the good stuff

[olive timber]

playing with mags redux, then bunch of optionals and added: movement effects beta 4b, looting takes time 0.41, arszi's controller and burer overhaul (might drop it on next playtrhough), simple autumn retexture no leaves + gardener of the zone v1.2 (beautiful). And some tweaks from me like starting loadouts, alife.ltx and difficulty values (both diff preset and mcm settings), for the next playthrough im sure i will play with npc loots stashes

[mossy spade]

can you tell me how to move the inscription by the number of items?

[olive timber]

Can you be more specific, sorry i dont understand your question

[mossy spade]

I want to move the label about the number of items, but I can't figure out how to do it

[olive timber]

that probably should require modding the UI, which i cant help you, im not a programmer. You should ask Grok or some other modder sorry

[mossy spade]

@whole jungle my friend, help me

[whole jungle]

Pain

[mossy spade]

this is done in utils_ui.script, did I understand correctly?

[wooden river]

Basically the same as Rtd except for texs i use Summer to Autumn textures from EFP discord. Was thinking of maybe adding Lootboxes as well.

[whole jungle]

I think the coordinates are defined in XML files

[buoyant urchin]

how can i extract the weathers from autumn season redux

[upbeat saffron]

copy gamedata\configs\environment\weathers from the mod

[buoyant urchin]

tried that but it keeps crashing on me

[olive timber]

look if there is any conflicts in mo2, load order matters

[buoyant urchin]

nah i don't have any conflicts

but will throw it on top of the visual category

[wooden river]

Do you have the vanilla fix file activated that comes with the mod?

[scenic rivet]

Any chance someone here uses the optional Roguelite addon? It doesn't transfer trader/player rep between runs for me. Stashes and Skills work tho

[whole jungle]

Did you try contacting the author ?

[scenic rivet]

commented on the moddb page, ye

thought Id ask here if someone had the same problem

[karmic fog]

@whole jungle

[vernal forge]

do you have addon n49?

[whole jungle]

You disabled skill system while having GAMMA Skill system balance most likely

[karmic fog]

yeah

seems so

thanks

@whole junglehow do i clear binds in mcm menu

[whole jungle]

No idea sorry

[stone nacelle]

I try to complete a "Lost Signal" Quest via the debug menu, cause I found the bodies but the quest didn't update somehow. I tried the solution in #│🔧troubleshooting #│🔧troubleshooting message

but I can't find the task ID. Any help?

Found the Solution for the "Lost Signal" quest:

When you unpacked the game files search for "unpacked>configs>misc>task>tm_dynamic.ltx
then find "Find the Missing Squad" or "simulation_task_52"
the task ID is: "simulation_task_52"
then do what is written here: #│🔧troubleshooting message

TLDR: Execute the following command in debug: task_manager.get_task_manager():set_task_completed("simulation_task_52")

edit: formatting

[karmic fog]

@whole jungle i cleared shader cache because of the black screen but now the game keeps saying shader compilation fail

[whole jungle]

You disabled some shaders add-on and most likely overlooked some GAMMA add-ons containing shaders like the detectors fix, as described in #old-framerate-optimisation

[whole jungle]

You are missing half the add-ons @karmic fog

Check #old-only-installer-support pinned messages. There's an archive containing the downloads folder of GAMMA RC3

[karmic fog]

🤌

[weary arrow]

This happens for me too. I'm looking at the script right now and it should just read trader rep from the file it saves on death and restore it from that file. You could try enabling debug in the MCM to see if the script is running as it should or not. edit: did a quick test with debug enabled for the mod in it's MCM option and the script is running correctly but trader rep is still 0 across the board. Stashes/skills/rank/character rep are restored successfully however.

[weary arrow]

Just searching around how traders work in anomaly it seems like the way that jabbers is trying to save trader progress may be flawed. I don't really know how the system works but it appears that he's saving the faction rep for each individual trader but anomaly sets trader supply levels based on a check of faction relation which is why it's not saving and being restored properly.

[whole jungle]

The correct way of doing it is checking current actor stands with the different factions and saving them in m_data, then calling them back on character creation

[scenic rivet]

Thats a great analysis, thanks for all the information. I just opened my console randomly and saw an error, something among the lines of "cannot open(or find, dont remember) ironman_manager script". That might have something to do with it as well, maybe.

[weary arrow]

I think that's just a vanilla thing you can ignore. I remember seeing it before enabling ironman roguelite.

[scenic rivet]

ah, gotcha

[forest anchor]

Yeah I get the trader rep issue with the roguelite mod to. I got as far as adding a heap more 'printf' lines in the scripts to take a look at everything going on but then i got distracted by something else and never came back to it heh.

I suspected it was use of trader instead of community/faction but I hadn't done any scripts for stalker games in years and didn't know whether the updated engine catered for individual rep which is why the mod author went down that path.

[ornate light]

hmm, did somebody manage to get inverno work with gamma?

[dark flint]

I am getting a crash in the jupiter tunnel [where there is some monolith squad] but because i added additional mod to my modlist(dltx dynamic mutant by demonizer ) i am putting it here, but when i look at the log look like it's not that mod, but i am not sure, if anyone would mind helping me figure it out " here the interesting part:
"current hitter zone_field_psychic_average
not valid field zone_field_psychic_average
current hitter zone_field_psychic_average
not valid field zone_field_psychic_average" this cause the crash after a while.

[tepid lark]

Is there any downside running the latest version of SSS ? Used it in my last playthrough without apparent issues but want to know more or if I missed something.

[olive timber]

grok said something of brightness inconsistency i think

[whole jungle]

Some people reported extreme darkness

Didn't test it myself

[tepid lark]

Didn't had this issue. I will reinstall it then, it seems it reduced a little bit the issue with insane reflections on some materials.

[whole jungle]

Oh ok. I'll try it out then

[daring juniper]

what i need to copy and save to keep the way it is before your removal of "unload" enemy weapons and ammo micro management?

[whole jungle]

In gamma economy remove the death_manager.script

Or use the death manager.script from dph loot condition and load it a new custom add at the end of the load order

[daring juniper]

awesome, im porlly in minority here but i kinda like poking with all that load/unload and other micro stuff

[white rose]

What would I need to touch in ZCP to keep Monolith, Sin or UNISG to spawn in the swamps ? I don't think it would make much sense lore wise

[severe jay]

you can just disable it completely i guess, but they should definitely be rare and very randomized unless you tweaked the population settings

[white rose]

Well, I had the default 0.6 population for both stalkers & mutants

It was after updating, I did a complete reinstallation (with deleting mods folder, update data and complete installation), so it all happened before I put my usual settings

I tried a few more times, it didn't happen again, so it should be fine as it is, I was just "lucky"

[buoyant urchin]

you can disable the random stalker squad option

that gets rid of southern monolith squads and isg roams before op afterglow

you will still find some sin guys around the red forest and iirc yanov

[white rose]

Thank you, will do just that then

[true condor]

Anyone got link to working 4K texturepack, since im pretty sure that the brick wall i've seen in efp and gamma are different

[unborn frost]

Wanted to try out HD models with the RTGI shaders, however getting a crash because of missing models from DICK's. Any way to remove properly to avoid missing files crash? The crash doesnt happen on new game, but on my existing save obviously.

[severe jay]

#custom-textures ?

[unborn frost]

I missed that one, thanks cat, once again I cannot read.

I'll make sure to flail myself before sleep tonight.

[severe jay]

no need to do that, its easy to miss a channel in a server with many channels

[unborn frost]

Okay so taking DICK's off requires a new game i think, errors with missing files. That is a damn shame...

[jade matrix]

the main question is, why my brain had so many problem with the first 4 words of that sentence

[white rose]

I managed to make it work, although I ultimately removed it afterward because I wasn't satisfied with the models, it still crashed when damaging anyone, and iirc it was coming from GBOOBS (even though I followed instructions in the other channel regarding its patches, so disabling it made the HD models work), hope this help

[wheat vine]

Hi ! I'd like to play Nav's 4K masks, is it even possible ? If yes how should i go about installing it on top of gamma ? Don't want to mess everything up

[olive timber]

#╟📸screenshots message

[wheat vine]

Thank you ! I don't have to install nav's gamedata folder right ? Just want to make sure, just replacing the texture from its .db ?

[olive timber]

yes, you are replacing the textures so you need to enable grok's masks first

[wheat vine]

Yeah i reinstalled with the masks, and already disabled no masks, gonna extract and do that

[fickle kestrel]

is death animations compatible with gamma? https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/death-animations

also the graphical part/enhancement of expedition

[regal brook]

Death animations are in gamma as an optional and expedition is a bit of a mixed bag

[fickle kestrel]

oooooo lets go, thats exciting

i guess they made a custom patch or smthn for gamma to work with it (because stealth interferes with DA)

and IIRC, DA isnt in efp

[severe jay]

if you look through the mod list to see what mods there is before you try adding your own

[fickle kestrel]

@severe jay regarding the crashing upon entering new area (in my case garbage) thing from general, do you think any of these can conflict?

i think not

its just weapon mods and ghillie suit overhaul

[severe jay]

i dont think so, but i cant be sure. also did you check if there is anything in the log after crashing ?

[raven roost]

DLTX stuff
there is a dedicated section for DTLX

[fickle kestrel]

im known to be demented

gimme a sec

[fickle kestrel]

forgot about that

too

oh man, it was from dltx, youre right

something with the guns spawning

specifically the flea market trader

[severe jay]

its trying to overwrite gamma economy would be my guess

[fickle kestrel]

nope, inventory

supplies_generic

[severe jay]

since guns shouldnt be sold... that means your new guns probably cant spawn normally unless you add them to loadouts and stashes

[fickle kestrel]

they do spawn on traders, confirmable from petrenko's inv, but it was probably (i assume) a conflict between mods

i wont buy them off of traders though

just want them there in case they drop from enemies

[severe jay]

they wont, unless you add them to enemy loadouts

[fickle kestrel]

elaborate

how exactly do i do that

[severe jay]

loadout mod i believe, grok made a custom one for gamma so you should just add the new guns there to the different factions/ranks of stalkers

[fickle kestrel]

in the category itself?

[severe jay]

no just the mod itself

[fickle kestrel]

thats what you meant...

alright

[severe jay]

open in explorer

[fickle kestrel]

damn thats gonna take a while

fortunately theres not 32173217970921370932107912 weapons added by both of these weapon packs for dltx

[severe jay]

thats what you have to do when adding your own weapons

just make sure to backup the ltxs when you are done so you wont have to do this again if you lose them

[fickle kestrel]

yessir

ill just add the entries to those of the npc loadouts mod then disable the actual weapon dltx packs themselves

so they dont interfere

also, what does killer stand for in there?

[severe jay]

merc

greh is sin

[fickle kestrel]

alright

listening to metro last light music makes me calmer than i should be doing this

[raven roost]

It should be this one

Good for you then, I've never done it but I think this is the right way

[severe jay]

that last one is not important

ignore it

is the game working or not ?

[topaz abyss]

MO2 gives off errors all the time.

most of the time it is nothing to worry about.

[severe jay]

post the log

[fierce isle]

guys, can someone send the config responsible for the parameters of the exo armor?

[violet bramble]

Can there be a Limit Fast Travel option that still requires you to pay money but removes the timer?

Doing for free feels like cheating.

But I am moving a lot now and waiting even for an hour feels like too long.

[misty quiver]

Yes, its in the MCM.

[severe jay]

it cant go under 1 hour

and from what i understand making it zero through the files just crashes

[raven roost]

I don't know, sorry

When did this happen?

Have you tried with a new game?

[vernal forge]

i think the hd models guide for activation is outdated

[violet bramble]

Arcane Xray bullshit

It be like that sometimes

[vernal forge]

put the hd models addons AFTER dux/fvm in the order list

and let it be overwritten after the rest of gamma addons

yeah

after fvm

deactivate them

don't remove them

you will probably encounter some special npc with vanilla models

but that's because you will need to modify a lot of .ltx just to change the visual of them

in my opinion, not worth the trouble

last time i tried it in RC2 it was like that

try making a new game and start to fast travel to different locations to see if everything works

i guess so

if not, maybe check if the .zip of the hd models is not corrupted, and then try unpacking it using 7zip and not winrar

do you have any other custom mods?

nothing else?
do grok mask voverlay conflict with hd model?

if that order doesn't work then i have no idea

also, what autumn zone?

could you post the link

i saw once one called redux or something like that, thing is is that it brings it's own texture/shaders/particles.xr files

ah i see

honestly no idea about this error

searching for that file it appears in my mo2 explorer

it's obviously from the hd models

nonon

check if you have it

type in the box that the red arrow points at

in the other box

the one in the right

yeah you have the files

but i don't know why you crash

[steady forge]

does anyone know how to make the bas patch of trader overhaul work with gamma

trader overhaul works but the bas patch doesnt seem to change the shops inventories or anything

[whole jungle]

Disable GAMMA BAS no trader injector

[steady forge]

Looking

I've disabled Gamma Economy and Gamma Economy no BAS injection

Cant find that specific one though

[vernal forge]

remember that you will need to create a new game or wait for the trader to restock if you are loading a existing save

[steady forge]

Oh

Imma let my dude sleep then

Forgot about the restock too

Works perfectly now, thanks guys

[sharp pivot]

Finally did it

[upbeat saffron]

The 12.7x55 mag is supposed to have a 1 round capacity tho, not 9

[sharp pivot]

1 round magazine? Lol

[upbeat saffron]

Yes, read the upgrade for the Deagle

[sharp pivot]

but fire rate is abyssmal anyway with 9

ok i will fix it

[upbeat saffron]

I am just saying, it's probably stupid OP with 9 shots

[sharp pivot]

it's like sniper rifle but pistol

[upbeat saffron]

Exactly, so the 1 round capacity is to balance that

[polar jasper]

Are there any mods that add extended mag upgrades to guns?

Whoops, wrong channel

[white rose]

@topaz abyss Here is good I think

[topaz abyss]

I would start by putting it at the bottom of your load order and just removing the shaders folder from INVERNO

If that doesnt work try removing the mcm/ui files

they are shit anyway

[white rose]

You mean the main menu thing ?

[topaz abyss]

Yes. I had the menus working fine when i played. I jsut removed them because they felt intrusive

[white rose]

Thanks, it works fine, I remember doing the same for Autumn Season Redux & Golden Autumn Redux, but I'll wait for the particle modification to be able to use it properly

[topaz abyss]

What was wrong with the particles?

[white rose]

@topaz abyss It was mentioned by Grok at the end of #old-bugs channel, saying that they likely need to be made loose to work well with Gamma

[thick quest]

Hello, my game keeps crashing when I try to start a new game as duty, loner works fine. Here is my crash log. Any help would be much appreciated :).

[vernal forge]

this is after the crash?

remember that booting up the game again overwrites the crash log

[thick quest]

Yop, that's after the crash

No error pops up though

Allright, tested it right now as a loner spawning in Rostok, and it did crash, so it seems to be something with Rostok

[ripe plume]

any idea why the sunrays are blue like this? using autumn season redux

[violet bramble]

Is there an addon that does weapon upgrade system more like Metro Exodus instead? Where upgrades are more like tradeoffs, and that allows the buffs to be more powerful.

I just find more and more that buffing weapons at the technicians is a pretty underwhelming procedure. Click, click, now your gun breaks 10% slower. Meanwhile in Metro it is "Your turn speed is slower now and it takes a second to pull out the gun, but it now holds two more rounds and hits like a truck".

[whole jungle]

Shaders config of that addon

[whole jungle]

No

I agree that the upgrade system isn't that good currently...

I would prefer something like each guns has slots, and you can add upgrades in each slots

Like, any upgrade

And upgrade would give bonus stats based the type of upgrade

You could max out handling for instance

[violet bramble]

That would be nice, yes.

[whole jungle]

And you could slap 5 tier 1 upgrades or 5 tier 3 upgrades

[polar jasper]

Would anything like that even be possible?

[violet bramble]

I mean, theoretically, yes.

The scopes and other mounted upgrades use a kind of similar system.

You could probably make several dedicated mounting spots onto each weapons config and add upgrade kits to them.

Or maybe add them as weapon parts.

And require the use of a workbench to install them.

Actually wait, I think I am onto something here.

@whole jungle could upgrades, like the ones we discussed above, be added into the game as universal weapon parts?

Then you could swap them out easily.

You would have five current weapon parts (barrel, trigger, etc.) and five normally empty slots where you would slot upgrade kits into.

And you would need the dedicated weapon repair kit and a workbench to access them.

Seems like the easiest way to implement this feature for me. But I don't know how difficult it would be on the coding side.

[polar jasper]

Like barrel, stock, magazine, receiver etc

Where the stock could have a padded upgrade to reduce recoil and increase handling

[whole jungle]

It's easier to create a new system I think

[polar jasper]

Would definitely be interesting to have a new upgrade system

All we need now is someone who can implement it

[misty quiver]

I read from Lucy, that Handling does nothing in Anomaly

Was a very old comment tho

[upbeat saffron]

It defines how clustered your shots are while hipfiring, that's it

It does something, just not much

[wheat vine]

what about flatness?

[severe jay]

bullet drop, but i dont think you need it unless you are using a subsonic (9x39)

[violet bramble]

Yeesh. Yeah, that's pretty useless, good to know.

I thought it affected weapon drawing speed.

[half basalt]

Anybody tries to install Filable canteens mod in GAMMA? Does it work fine ?

[wheat vine]

TOZ-106 is looking like this in my inventory.

Some other stuff are also broken just like the picture above.

[severe jay]

if this is gamma, the fix pinned in #📢announcements or increase your texture quality in the settings

[wheat vine]

Yes it is, and thank you.

Also is there a way to increase the FPS very slightly without turning off any mods?
Like what adjustments can I do in order to do that.
I get around 55 fps and I am wondering if there is a way to get it up higher without changing the game's look that much.

[severe jay]

reducing grass, reducing render distance and shadows and maybe the core 0 affinity in #old-framerate-optimisation

[wheat vine]

Alright, thank you very much.

[steady shard]

How can I make this work?

you dont, gamma has all graphical tweaks already and its own reshade, only thing is if you want to use another reshade but you will need to adjust it

[fickle kestrel]

damnnnn 💀 💀

[steady shard]

I think I install the HD model incorrectly
I disable the addon as instructed and ctrl+M and select the HD model to install
is that right?

ive got...ANUOS, its in #📎mods-added-for-next-build

ZCP

and thats it

the spawn template script is a zcp file btw

could be messing with this

[severe jay]

wait... zcp is already in gamma

[fickle kestrel]

is it?

[severe jay]

yes

[fickle kestrel]

i dont remember it being in gamma

am i just demented

yeah but is that just balanced spawns or the entire mod

?

[severe jay]

its the entire mod, just rebalanced spawns

[fickle kestrel]

thats strange

i didnt get that crash on my

other playthrough

and im far into it

[severe jay]

did you add a zcp addon on top of the already existing one ?

[fickle kestrel]

zcp itself, yes

[severe jay]

disable the extra one you added

[fickle kestrel]

i didnt think that would be the entire zcp mod, plus i dont remember seeing it in mcm

but it is what it is

good thing i saved a bit before crashing

[severe jay]

its at the bottom of the mcm

[fickle kestrel]

yes ik i already disabled it

welp, im stupid

didnt think that balanced spawns was the entire zcp mod itself

[crimson drift]

@fickle kestrel I recommend disabling GAMMA's ZCP if you use the current version, and vice-versa if you use the GAMMA version

if the error persists, please tell me

[kind forge]

Is it possible to implement this Heatvision (Aka. Thermals) into Gamma?
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/heatvision-v02-extension-for-beefs-nvg-dx11engine-mod

[raven roost]

Yes

IIRC you need to use the modified exes you can find in the mod

Check in #old-suggest, there should be a conversation about it

[kind forge]

Ah thanks a lot, will try the modified exes!

[slim zealot]

hey so i just tried to add 2 mods to gamma, Upgradeble backpack and full upgrades, but its messes with the trading system and trading hud ui

is there something i can do ?

[raven roost]

#🖇old-mods-posting message
You can try this one for Full Upgrades

Delete the one you have and use the one I've send you

I don't know if it will work

Put it on the bottom of your mod list

For "upgradeable backpack" I can't help you, but GAMMA already have backpacks that can carry more weight, you'll need to craft them though

[slim zealot]

like tourist backpack?

but thank you Anyways !

[raven roost]

Yes something like that

[raven roost]

GAMMA already have these backpacks

The most bigger is 47kg

[tiny wren]

Anyone know if Gamma can support having the Expedition visual overhaul?

[vernal forge]

It cant

[tiny wren]

[void oxide]

i want to add the dynamic mutant,dynamic nocturnal mutants and dynamic stalker guards.How can i add them ?

[slim zealot]

@raven roost its okay i have the best

[pure quartz]

Hi, any idea how to install only the weathers from ASR ?
I searched here as well as on the mod page, but couldn't figure it out...
Thanks !

[vernal forge]

i think they are packed inside a .db file if im not wrong, you will need a db unpacker and then search for the textures sky and then the weather config files

[pure quartz]

thanks, I'll look into it then

[white rose]

I have the zip if you want

With some relighting to the dark weathers

[pure quartz]

oh sure that'be great !

[white rose]

I'll send you a link

Quick question, what do you use as a base settings ? Anomaly or you have some autumn mods ?

[pure quartz]

I've simple autumn retetexture (no leave version) + the zone gardener

[white rose]

Oh, well, it should be fine then, just remember that in may seem a bit dark still on w_rain2 and w_storm1

[pure quartz]

gotcha 👍

[white rose]

Almost done

[uncut saddle]

I was redirected here. I'm using a Voice Mod with my taunt being M. But it plays a NVG enable/disable sound when I use M along with my voice. Anyone know if its a mod?

[vernal forge]

script from bas to enable night vision scopes

[uncut saddle]

Ahh damn

[vernal forge]

search for gamma keybind fixes, then bas_nvg scopes script and change first line to the key you want

by default is M you can change it to whatever

[uncut saddle]

Ok, got it. Thanks a bunch!

[junior marlin]

Does Project INVERNO severely impact performance or will the game run more or less the same as with default textures

[vernal forge]

probably impact performance

[whole jungle]

Depends on your VRAM. And the less grass you have, the more Framerate you'll get

[pure quartz]

Hi, is gamma using efp texture pack, and if no, is there a point using it alongside gamma ?

[whole jungle]

No it's not

Well if you like it you can

I personally don't

I suggest some texture packs in #custom-textures

[pure quartz]

thanks for the tips 👌

[round merlin]

hi i tried installing inverno and disabled agressor but for the love of my life i can't find that "Particles Cinematic VFX3.5 1.1.2 BOTZ YAWM" in the modlist

[topaz abyss]

should be near the end of your list

[round merlin]

i see it now thanks a lot

[grand dagger]

anyone can help me install inverno?

[topaz abyss]

#custom-textures

[raven roost]

He already knows

[grand dagger]

there's no tut on setting it up tho..

[raven roost]

He want help

[topaz abyss]

setting up what

[grand dagger]

tried dissabling agressor reshade, replacing the app data, activating the modpack, but i get a black screen when i enter

[raven roost]

There is, actually, a tutorial in there

[topaz abyss]

He didnt follow it clearly

[raven roost]

Delete shaders_cache, check #╭📖faq black screen

[raven roost]

Or this, yes

[grand dagger]

so I put this one folder in the mods folder, in the MO2 Folder?

[topaz abyss]

Have you ever used MO2?

[grand dagger]

no

[topaz abyss]

Top left, install mod

install inverno zip

then follow the directions in #custom-textures

and delete your shaders cache folder in Anomaly/appdata

[grand dagger]

think i get it now, but is agressor grounds the same with agressor reshade? i cant find the mod in mo2

[topaz abyss]

Yes

GAMMA only uses the ground files from the Agressor Reshade mod

The actual reshade is not used

[whole jungle]

You can use the filter bar at the bottom of the mod list

Wants to customize stuff > don't know how > don't follow guides > ask for help

[round merlin]

I almost forgot how to use it since my Skyrim and fallout times,thanks a lot

[whole jungle]

#custom-textures there's a guide specifically made for Anomaly

[tender mountain]

Hi all, I got weird flickering water in great swamps map any ideas?

[tender mountain]

already disable full screen optimisation, and cleared shader cache

[whole jungle]

I don't see what's flickering

If you don't like the effect, right Screen Space Shader adodn > reinstall > Disable Water SSR

[tender mountain]

I'll try to send you a video today

[tender mountain]

@whole jungle

[whole jungle]

AMD GPU ?

[tender mountain]

yep vega 64 and rysen 5 2600

[whole jungle]

Ah that could be it :(

You can try disabling the shaders add-ons as well as R3zy Detectors patch+ clear shader cache just to see if you still have the bug

You can try to just disable the Water SSR in Screen Space Shader addon and clear shader cache otherwise

[tender mountain]

weird thing really, cause on EFP I add SSS without problem. The ES and beef patches for SSS are in vanilla G.A.M.M.A?

[whole jungle]

Gamma uses ES + Beef NVGs + SSS with SSR and Water SSR

[tender mountain]

ok

I'll try your suggestions thanks grok

[tender mountain]

@whole jungle When all shaders disabled, no bug. With ES only, no bug. with Beef NVG no bug but all is very dark/black. With SSS bug's back. I always deleted shader cache between tests

I tried without SSR water and its ok but damn I miss that shader!

[whole jungle]

:(

[whole jungle]

Try install the version from moddb

[tender mountain]

Yep already tried, same bug. If I can,I prefer disable ES but when I disable it I got a shader compilation error (deleted shader cache of course and disabled R3zy detectors patch)

[whole jungle]

Don't enable ES patch in SSS @tender mountain

[night jolt]

I'm trying to get nav's masks to work and I'm running into a problem. I downloaded the mod, the hotfix and the GAMMA patch, overwrit the data folder with these two fixes and installed it using the mod organizer, putting it at the bottom of the list as instructed. The masks do work in game but they seem to render over the HUD in the bottom left. Does anyone know how to fix this or what I may have done wrong?

[whole jungle]

There's no solution

That's why its not in GAMMA

[marsh quest]

Best thing you can do is just toggle the hud on and off again

Once you do anything with an animation though, that hud typically gets covered up again

[whole jungle]

The solution is to remake the whole BHS UI to not be in custom messages later but in UI layer

Otherwise just press H twice

But when your helmet degrades you need to repress H twice

It's really annoying

[night jolt]

I see. I guess that's how some of the cool screenshots were made then.

well thanks anyway

[round merlin]

Anyone knows if there's a mod that changes the colour of stashes and side objectives to other colour than white or at least where I can find the files to modify them? Using inverno and they can be pretty hard to spot on minimap

[whole jungle]

Something actor_hint_wnd.dds texture file

[topaz abyss]

gamedata/textures/ui

It's crudely done by me, but changes all white stashes to red, quest markers are also now Red or Purple.

all light blue icons are changed to dark blue

You can overwrite the file, it's located in GAMMA UI

[round merlin]

Thanks a lot,I was waiting to finish work so I can try to to it myself but you saved me some time

[topaz abyss]

Yeah if you want to tweak it just load it up in GIMP and remember to export to dds

[wheat vine]

I keep crashing ever since I went inside X16. I use ANUS, BIRD and lootboxes on top of GAMMA if that matters

^ and mags

[wide gate]

would the efp texture pack work with GAMMA?

[marsh quest]

I don't see why not, I think some people already use it

[heady torrent]

There are reflection issues on some textures but otherwise it’s fine

[wide gate]

I can live with that

[topaz abyss]

This isn't a crash log. You need to get the log right after a crash. If you start the game again the log is cleared.

[wheat vine]

It was that, I suppose something with script a_faction_prices was fucked as you can see if you scroll a bit up. It fixed itself though after a few crashes (I just kept launching the game again and it stopped)

[wide gate]

aight my game instantly crashes

I have the texture pack at the bottom of mo2

[vernal forge]

it includes weathers

delete those and try again

[wide gate]

alright

[icy matrix]

i'm having kind of the same issue with the shaders on a gtx 1060

disabling enhanced shaders removed the flickering, but it looks so much worse without the shaders

changing every graphic setting in-game didn't do much either

it only flickers when i move either the mouse or the actor itself

[whole jungle]

Does it happen with default gamma graphics settings ? Complete install resets that

[fickle kestrel]

do you have soft water on

[fickle kestrel]

idk i asked because my water got fixed with soft water turned on

[icy matrix]

that shader is one picky bitch

anyhow, i reinstalled SSS without SSR Water and no more flicker, nasty poop water but oh well

[neon flower]

Hi i get crash when i go to agroprom

[stark bone]

Hello!
Can you please tell me if there is any information about adding this mod to the GAMMA modpack?
Used search but didn't find anything. Сan I install it, it won't break anything in the mechanics?
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/toxic-air-01

[polar juniper]

Hey, someone knows if its possible to add the "Hunting knife" to the crafting list? I know the recipe exists in EFP but i don't remember if its an addon or just an edit

[raven roost]

Toxic air during daytime is already in, don't know if it's the same thing as this mod

[severe jay]

nope

its radioactive daytime, its a game option

[raven roost]

Isn't it the same thing?

[severe jay]

i dont think so

read what the addon does

[sweet gate]

hey i was playing gamma with just the mods included all i enabled was mutants bleeding and the autumn retexture with the gardener of the zone. but now while i was playing loading the game is painstakingly slow, if i quicksave at a campfire my game freezes for 1-2 mins then it resumes. this only started recently, for the past few weeks everything's been fine

[polar juniper]

Maybe gardener works better on a new save?

I use gardener and bleeding mutants without slow problems, but i started the save with them

[whole jungle]

Quit. Update data, complete install. Start a new game then load your save.

[sweet gate]

well the gardener and mutants bleed have been working fine when i enabled them throughout my playthrough, i don't think thats the problem

and im completing the install rn, i'll see if it makes it better

[daring stump]

so I added HD models and reinstalled Cr3pis icon pack but for some reason some of the armor icons are still vanilla styled and the other half are HD model icons any ideas as to why?

[sweet gate]

thanks for the help grok, my game is running fine now

[minor blaze]

How Engine mods performed in GAMMA( didnt find patched exes anywhere)? install Heat Visioned (replaced vanilla exes) and it works. But i am curious, How the rest of the engine addons are made? @whole jungle

[daring stump]

Huh?

[whole jungle]

You need to patch engine for this addon and rebuild the exes using Visual Studio 2015

[daring stump]

@whole jungle do you know what could be causing half of the armor icons to still be vanilla after reinstalling cr3pis icons for HD models?

[whole jungle]

Icons override from Cr3pis?

There's armor no helmet specific icons addon

[daring stump]

I removed both of the ones provided in GAMMA and installed it from ModDB and have it loaded very last to ensure the icons are correct and I installed HD models and Cr3pis is still overwriting it but it still has 50% vanilla armor icons and the other 50% are the correct HD models Icons from Cr3pis

I stripped down GAMMA to just stuff I would like

[minor blaze]

I thought DLTX, ARX and Dynamic Anomalies also need engine patches and its done somehow in GAMMA over the vannila exes

[whole jungle]

Yes

Check demonized GitHub repo of Anomaly modded exes

You need to apply his diff patches to the engine + the diff patch of the heat vision thing and compile the exe using VS2015

[minor blaze]

Thanks, but how its done in GAMMA? Mod organizer says that exes are unmanaged. Am i missing something?

[topaz abyss]

The gamma installer takes care of those for you since MO2 does not./

(The modded exe's used in GAMMA come with the Gamma download.)

[minor blaze]

Thx!

[neon flower]

hey how do i enable gasmask breathing sound pls?

[raven roost]

Check in "Settings"

[neon flower]

thx

[minor blaze]

Can someone help me figure out what is causing the crash?

[daring stump]

how do I get Cr3pis to cover all armor icons for HD models?

[marsh quest]

go pay him or smth

[daring stump]

ok

[wheat vine]

How do I update the mod?

Or does it just automatically update itself whenever it's launched

[upbeat saffron]

#💽how-to-update

[wheat vine]

Thanks.

Uh one more thing how do I know what version is my gamma?

[raven roost]

It's RC3

[wheat vine]

Ok

[severe jay]

see these for the pack's version, the installer version and the release of gamma

[wet lava]

I have installed GhenTuong Tasks Pack v2 and every time I ask for a quest my game is crushing, is there any way to make this addon work?

[vernal forge]

I think not

Its unstable

[wet lava]

Not cool

Thanks anyway

[thick quest]

Is Gamma Compatible with dynamic mutants? https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/dltx-required-dynamic-mutants-slightly-remastered

[pure quartz]

is this mod usable ? has some little conflicts (i disabled all the immersive sleep thingys in my modpack btw)
Thanks !
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/upgraded-sleeping-bag

[polar juniper]

I played it with it. I had creashes till i removed it. Not constant though. Had to remove it. Dont know if it was due to the entity limit, because base GAMMA had stalker and mutant population really low and i played dynamic with 1000 mutants.

[crimson drift]

dynamic mutants is really unstable generally

[polar juniper]

I had no problem last time i played stalker with EFP and dynamic

I miss dynamic mutants but if i have to play without it, there is nothing i can do

[thick quest]

Thank you kindly, just what I was curious about.

[rare cedar]

@alpine juniper Artefact variationizer is awesome, I'd love to see a short instruction on how to get it to to be compatible with gamma, its the one mod I kinda want

[wheat vine]

looks like a saber tooth tiger took some cocaine and steroids

[pine wedge]

(reposting in the right spot) Hello everyone, any streamers here get Bits4Tricks working with Gamma or is it a no go? When i try and add it in thru MO2 which i had to do for EFP, it seems to conflict with the Gamma Psy Rework & 15- Voiced Actor - DesmanMetzger modules

[whole jungle]

GAMMA Artefacts Reinvention cannot work with Variationizer

namely because gamma stuff revolves around fusing and crafting artefacts, and you cannot do that with the whatever number of new artefacts variants that are added by the addon

variationizer puts emphasis on single lucky finds and thus pure RNG

gamma artefacts reinvention aims at providing long, non RNG based progression on artefacts, and avoid making tons of money from artefacts, while also pushing you more actively to find artefacts everywhere

[rare cedar]

its fine I will use variatonizer on another install, it's a bit of content i will look forward to playing by itself

[wheat vine]

i cant seem to play without "optional" campfire saves mod... if i disable it, game crashes every time on loading/new start

[marsh quest]

Disable YACS no quit as well

[wheat vine]

ok thank you man

works perfect

This happens every time I try to accept a delivery quest.

[topaz abyss]

hmm

seems like its not generating the item

[wheat vine]

How can I solve it?

[topaz abyss]

bring this over to #old-bugs

it's happened to me once recently too.

[raven oar]

Edited and now working as intended, just install usual AV and the patch after, keep in mind that the artefact melter even if you give it legendary versions of the artefacts, will craft only common versions, so to get really good full empty or else you will have to find it, and some artefacts don't have very distinguished versions

[rare cedar]

Thanks, im considering not using it for now so i have something more to look forward to for my own install

[whole jungle]

Hum could be interesting 🙂

it means you need to naturally find good artefacts

[raven oar]

Yes!

[whole jungle]

I'll try it for a bit

I'm just fearing that it's just "too much" for some people lol

[raven oar]

Try it, I'm playing with it from the start

[raven oar]

Definitely

[marsh quest]

It's not anymore complicated then the parts system in my opinion, but what do I know

[whole jungle]

I'll check it out how it looks in game

well the parts system is just like "you need to get used to it"

[raven oar]

Thank Lord I was playing with the wpo since Anomaly being rc3 if I remember correctly, can't imagine how it is for the new guys

[marsh quest]

Yeah, it's definitely a "get used to it thing"

[whole jungle]

oof honestly it's way to complicated I think hahaha

the variotinizer thing

What I find weird is the fact that there are "bad" full empties you know

defeats the purpose and excitement of finding a good artefact I think somehow

[raven oar]

then you can just craft "normal" version, and find legendary later

[whole jungle]

Also I feel like the empowering UI wouldn't separate artefacts ?

yeah empowering doesn't work

[raven oar]

Well I'm playing without degradation sorry then

That's the thing I forgot about

[rare cedar]

Ngl there is such a large amount of trash arties playing with degradation is pretty justifyable now, if atleast on 0.2 rate

[pure quartz]

@nova mauve is your last add on in #🖇old-mods-posting compatible with other autumn mods ?
I guess I load it last ? thank you 🙂

[mortal plover]

Where should I drop this mod in load order? (Only plugin I want to add)
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/dltx-151-more-portrait-icons-and-actor-visuals

[queen prism]

out of curiosity I tried spawning sr25 ... it crashed , caveat : I have poor man's setup - dx10 and disabled stuff according to
framerate_optimisation except for dynamic tonemap extended and skies redux and aggressor addon, I also use classical textures, it worked like a charm so far

[wide gate]

my game crashes in red forest while fighting Sin in the mines

[queen prism]

If anyone has crashy crash with awesome sr-25, it requires Particles and Cinematic VFX

[vernal forge]

just on top of everything

like overwritting everything

should be no problem

[queen prism]

Is it possbile to somehow cut out only gun effect particles from Cinematic VFX? With all of it enabled I have out of memory crashes in heavy locations like Army Warehouses, I enjoyed crash-less playthrough until sr-25 replacer dropped in, spawned it and it immediately crashed , guess same thing will happen when it gets used by NPC

[vernal forge]

you will have to use the sdk i think

to modify particles.xr

[uncut saddle]

I'm using my own Voice Mod but everytime I reload my character says it twice over simultaneously. Any fix?

[vernal forge]

disable your own voice mod

[uncut saddle]

Blyat

It only happens with GAMMA. and nothing is conflicting with it. It's odd

[queen prism]

Simply deleting files in folder won't do ? It's bullshit that one gun replacer requires system hog effects mod, I hate when mod is not optimized at alll like that

[uncut saddle]

I've tested it with others. Some mine, some others have uploaded and it's all the same issues. They just have sounds play twice over. And this is ONLY with GAMMA. Could it be one of the other mods? Cause I can't find a conflict for the life of me that would cause this.

[severe jay]

this?

[uncut saddle]

Crazy thing is I thought it was, it's been disabled

[severe jay]

?

[uncut saddle]

Yup, disabled as well

I know, strange
