today i found out that a pulse anomaly can kill you while you're talking to the merc trader at the waste processing plant in zaton

blissful ivy

#

yeah i always put my stashes in the skadovsk when basing in zaton because you can't save in the waste processing plant, but I didn't expect to get killed inside a trader's inventory lmfao

To be fair I got my share of luck doing detective work on this run's first jupiter visit. It's always a warzone the first time around, and you can get a lot of high tier squads.

Renegades and Duty fought at the workshop below yanov, and I got an AS VAL (green barrel), Command Skat (which i can use), and normal exoskeleton (which i cannot use). ISG and Military fought at the jupiter/outskirts tunnel entrance, where I got an AMB-17 (which I cannot use) and a pre-upgraded ASh-12 with the SUP kit (which I also cannot use)

you seen my new house anon?

#

i got cabinets (no bed yet tho)

#

im working on a bed, but im gonna make this place look nice

#

somehow

#

oh you see my lights?

#

i thought they looked kinda nice

#

low profile and shit

#

i had to put a light at the top of the stairs lmao

#

couldnt see the fucking door, and then i notice theres a gap at the top, so i had to then put a plank at the top to make it look like it didnt have a hole XD

#

redneck problems require redneck solutions

#

updated the security measures

#

im updating bit by bit, and yes im gonna log basically everything about this little home

#

flooring

#

for le bed, when it arrives

#

is it safe to place shit without collision? or will it just spontaneously murder me

id say 50/50

i have a upcoming test and gork actually putting out the next big update.... blyat

blissful ivy
#

its like never a thing

#

also can you make a dtlx for me anon? to put tools into the drops of master/legends? i tried to make one, but it just didnt work

#

just say yes or no, if you say no, i will just try again later

celest sparrow
blissful ivy
celest sparrow
blissful ivy
#

i mean like, do i just massacre military?

celest sparrow
blissful ivy
#

by hand?

celest sparrow
blissful ivy
#

would it be master/legend exclusive? and faction exclusive? because those are kinda essential

#

to the nature of this creation

celest sparrow
#

Might default upon update tho
so I guess you want to do a mod_system_death_items.ltx

#

yeah you can have it be Faction / Rank exclusive

blissful ivy
#

hmm ok, im just braindead, i could follow veer's guide

#

maybe if i read it gooder it will work this time

#

i should probably do it, and then put it into its own mod and zip it up

#

i mean dtlx looks like you just put ![ or something and that changes shit

burnt swallow
#

🥀

blissful ivy
#

and then name the file mod system something

#

with tons of zs

#

i got this

celest sparrow
#

You would have to create new sections for the tools
Like [rare_tools] then add that section inheritance to [freedom_private_legend] : rare_tools

#

might just be easier to edit the death_items file clueless

blissful ivy
celest sparrow
#

Just not entirely sure how to dltx KekSkew

blissful ivy
#

didnt you do it for the MP-133 injector?

celest sparrow
#

Let me see

Drug kit: Bandit expert
Bullet kit: Bandit the one below expert doge1doge2
Basics: Loner, CS, Renegade, Ecologist
Advanced: Merc, Duty, Freedom, Military
Experts: ISG

#

thats it

#

yes i gave bandits 2 toolkits, because i didnt want them on basics, since bandits are extremely common

#

wait, bandit master/legends are little rare

#

fixed

celest sparrow
#

so all ranks for the factions in basics / advanced / experts?

blissful ivy

to some extent

burnt swallow
blissful ivy
#

so if i understand what you said, then yes

burnt swallow
#

a hand petting u its all thats missing no

#

the rest is sorted

blissful ivy
blissful ivy

tbh

#

literally just put the designated tools in the listed factions basically

#

if only it were that simple when i tried

normal island
#

It's bad

#

There's a whole book about it

blissful ivy
#

i was gonna leave them blank for now, since they have guaranteed spawns

#

at the mine, so you can farm them

#

decently easily

#

ISG has 0 guaranteed spawns, making experts harder to get than through stashes

#

because with stashes i usually get them extremely easily, i dont like that

Please do "release" this little mod when it works 👀

radiant sage
#

I think it's genuinely a very interesting change

blissful ivy
#

i made it a challenge, but if it could possibly become a future change, im all for it

#

i mean im running this run with NO tools from piss stashes

#

currently, i have no tools

#

and once this mod is done, if its being done idk

#

then im gonna kill

#

lots

#

with the guns i DO have, with green barrels, and no cleaning kits dont count XD

#

A-D gun repair kits must be from stalkers, same with light-exo kits

@celest sparrow how u gonna deal with rpgs? my 1st rpg death was from mortal sin sins at red forest

radiant sage
blissful ivy
#

and artifacts

#

if you have any decent res, and cover, you will be ok

#

the big thing is the bleed after RPG shot

remote socket
#

huh?

blissful ivy
remote socket
#

who needs all those when u can run with redline suit

remote socket
#

just dodge with speed '-'

blissful ivy
#

you seem to have the answer, why ask?

remote socket
#

cuz he had exosuit which r slow af

blissful ivy
#

i noticed.

#

thanks for telling me kolya

blissful ivy
#

its like 100% speed

#

which is fine

#

and also, just kill the dudes with RPGs

#

i never even saw RPG users in mortal sin

remote socket
#

wait since when were exos 100%?

blissful ivy
#

that or i killed them

blissful ivy
remote socket
#

fr?

#

i nvr bothered with protos so

#

only exosuits n tried noso

#

ah, back when noso were the best of the best til gork nerfed it XD

blissful ivy
#

@mental furnace

#

you were right

#

that mod does fix the problem with the SV-98

#

maybe i will actually hit heads with this thing now

blissful ivy
#

the formidable ISG nosorog

#

6 slots, great stats

remote socket
blissful ivy
#

not much better than that

#

it then got buffed

#

so i mean

remote socket
#

got buffed? wat

blissful ivy
#

it got buffed in 0.9.3

#

6 slots from 5

#

thats a direct buff

#

maybe it gets nerfed in 0.9.4? idk

remote socket
#

god, if only windows 11 wasn't a piece of dogshit garbage, i woulda still be playing gamma lol

blissful ivy
#

why is windows 11 stopping you?

remote socket
#

it bluescreened and bitlocker suddenly locked my c drive '-'

blissful ivy
#

thats something else either you or something else did

#

im on windows 11, regrettably

#

and ive been playing for like 2 years on gamma on windows 11

remote socket
#

i did nothing but event vviewer suggests it is either amd adrenaline or bad driver

blissful ivy
#

yeah that would make sense

#

i have neither

#

drivers are up to date, everything is fine on my end, and i dont have anything AMD related

#

so its possible event viewer is right

remote socket
#

funny how i had 0 problem with those when i was on arch linux with xfce/kde plasma :/

blissful ivy
#

i cant be asked to use femboy OS i mean linux

remote socket
#

my country isn't rly linux friendly sadly...

blissful ivy
#

no country is

remote socket
#

why r u using android then '-'

blissful ivy
#

i bully linux users

remote socket
#

if u were using it

blissful ivy
rich moss
#

Man i love using android 15 on my windows computer

remote socket
#

im not saying what is good or nah but at least i like linux on how i have power over stuff, idk why did some people popularise linux into femboy os

blissful ivy
#

users have loads of control over windows, if you know what youre doing

#

not 100% control of course

#

but like 75-80%

remote socket
#

but the part i despite about windows is that a small part of the uncontrollable part is very annoying even with custom os like ghost spectre which r the bloatware part...

#

u can get rid of em but not 100%....

rich moss
#

I would imagine it comes down to user preference and needs at the end of the day

blissful ivy
#

bloatware is barely an issue imo

#

debloating is overrated, its not required in any way

remote socket
#

true

blissful ivy
#

ah yes, i need that 1% more performance

remote socket
#

but the 1 thing i wish to remove but can't is xbox game bar

blissful ivy
#

even 1% is an overestimation

blissful ivy
remote socket
#

how?

blissful ivy
#

one sec

remote socket
#

i did remove it but not 100%

blissful ivy
#

it can

remote socket
#

still exists n bugs me every time i connect a game controller or bt devices

blissful ivy
#

ive never been bothered by xbox game bar since i banished it to the aether

remote socket
#

got a link i can follow or smth?

blissful ivy
#

nah sorry, been like 3 years

#

since i did

#

according to google ai:

  1. Using PowerShell:
    Open Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
    Type the following command: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage and press Enter.
    This command will uninstall the Game Bar.
#

worth a shot

remote socket
#

that i already did

blissful ivy
#

ah ok

remote socket
#

but annoying window will pop up saying im missing gamebar or something when i connect my devices

blissful ivy
#

not sure exactly what i did to silence its ass

#

because its dead

rich moss
#

Can't you literally uninstall game bar through the control panel

rich moss
#

You may need to disable it first but im like pretty sure you can just manually uninstall it

#

Disabling it is literally just a single tick box in settings aswell so

remote socket
#

i also need to find a way for windows to stop trying to call gamebar or somehting related whenever i connect a device

blissful ivy
#

what music yall like? im bored and want to talk about music

#

nerd shit is making me tired rn

remote socket
#

i already did all those but it still tries to call gamebar but cant find it so it opens a windows saying it cannot open gamebar or something

#

i just listen to random stuff but lately im listening to breakcore lol

#

something i woulda listened to when i was in mid-highschool

rich moss
#

Disable the Gam bar

#

I am on the bus so I must rely on Google

celest sparrow
remote socket
#

is it because my controller is xbox controller?

rich moss
#

Doing that should remove any game bar interaction when plugging in controllers..

It might be your Xbox controller yeah

remote socket
#

if so, doesn't makes sense for someof my bluetooth device like my keyboard sometimes opens the same thing...

rich moss
#

You tried it with a different one?

#

Different controller that is

remote socket
#

got only 1 controller so can't test things out unfortuntely...

rich moss
#

Fair, well hopefully you can figure it out

remote socket
#

been thinking of buying a new one tho, like dualshock 5

rich moss
#

I keep gamebar on simply because I use its recording feature occasionally for quick clipping

remote socket
#

i use nvidia one for that lel

rich moss
#

I get better results using Xbox gamebar over shadowplay so yeah

celest sparrow
#

might just be something with the file structure but shrug

remote socket
#

but tbh i nvr record nor did it b4, i only need it to show fps

#

but i heard steam overlay will be upgrading that feature soon

#

since it is on beta and we can use it

rich moss
#

Steam recording feature is genuinely one of the best clipping softwares I've used, intact its not even clipping software really you can literally use it to record entire gameplay footage lmao

remote socket
#

how is the video quality and how long can it record?

rich moss
#

I just will never understand why shadowplay will give me a file the size of 8 mountains for 20 seconds of gameplay but I can record several minute long clips for the same size with steam

remote socket
#

i heard gamebar doesn't record long stuffs but then again, i don't record so idk

#

lol

rich moss
#

It can record up to 2 hours of gameplay footage in the background. And you can either download the entire thing or clip certain parts out of it

remote socket
rich moss
#

2 hours usually amounts to between 10GB - 32GB.

Which from my understanding, is very small for two hours. Might be wrong though

remote socket
#

well video quality varies so

rich moss
#

From my understanding they don't actually record your gameplay in the normal sense. Its stored in a ton of like, data files that steam then stitches together to create the video, which I imagine is how it manages the small size for me atleast

rich moss
#

No clue what stuff like 1440p would end up being size wise

remote socket
#

it's not like how obs just captures the windows u set it to capture or the recording of the screen?

#

wat

#

sounds like it will record it like how pubg shows u that dogshit death replay or the whole replay of ur gameplay

rich moss
#

Nah, if you look at the files it generates, its not just an mp4 file or something like that, the recording is stored in tons of files that then get put together, im not entirely sure on the specifics of it

remote socket
#

ohh

#

i guess they have their reasoning for that way of it doing things

rich moss
#

I imagine it's because the recording can be viewed live and it updates real time, you can literally watch it do it in the steam overlay

#

Either way its cool

#

I've had some success using it with GAMMA but its surprisingly hard to get steam to want to record anomaly for some reason lol

remote socket
#

lol that is weird

rich moss
#

I know its due to mo2 i just haven't found a way around it

remote socket
#

even so, weird lel

Guys is this 0.9.4 update the update that has redone and shi added to gamma?

blissful ivy
#

try reading?

#

(yes im a snarky asshole, leave me alone)

rich moss
#

It was seemingly going to be added as an optional add on for 0.9.4 but now it seems grok is waiting for redone 3.0

celest sparrow
#

Even then it might be left as optional unless we get a good judgement out of ReDone 3.0

#

I somewhat like ReDone Combat AI but I really wouldn't like it be included into Base GAMMA

tender quiver
#

it would be too hard, too controversial for the average gamma player

celest sparrow
#

I wouldn't call it "too hard"

#

It can be quite unfair in some situations, which are currently seen with GAMMAs AI but I feel like are a lot more present with ReDone Combat AI

#

I can appreciate what it tries to do, but the rather artificial increase in Difficulty tends to leave a bad taste for the overall experience

rich moss
#

I personally like the uh, stuff it does for faction bases and faction combat. Although I don't believe thats in the combat addon, thats in the full collection

celest sparrow
#

We're mainly talking about the Combat AI aspect

rich moss
#

Yeah I know. I don't think the full collection nor the combat aspect would work as a permanent mod in gamma either

#

I think it'd be a good idea to make it an optional one though, atleast the combat mod, the whole collection maybe not

celest sparrow
#

I honestly would like it if we kept the dispersion as it currently is in GAMMA but add in the Faction based behavior and tactics that ReDone Combat AI tweaks upon

#

I just don't see a need for the AI to be a lot more accurate other than being frustrating for the average player, as they are forced to move a lot more between cover to gain a favorable position against the Enemy
but it doesn't really play well in the case there's a lack of cover, you're bound to get hit several times while being unable to fight back as standing still is certain death

rich moss
#

Tbh the ai already jumpscares me so I don't want it at all, but again some people would probably love it so I think its good that its being considered to be optional

celest sparrow
#

It plays rather well, but I would like it if it could be tweaked to not be as punishable shrug

last mesa
rich moss
#

I imagine you could probably disable it if you don't want them

frank oxide
rich moss
#

Considering they seem to just be model swaps instead of new weapons

frank oxide
#

nvm

rich moss
#

Even if there was a new knife or more then I imagine you could still disable it without consequences

frank oxide
#

looks to be just a model/anim swap then

but they arent like super accurate either

celest sparrow
#

It's rather noticeable still shrug

humble shoal
#

you still can pick for for like 20 years out of cover before being shot once with redone

#

its for sure noticeable when you are in the open

#

i thought its because basic gamma AI have problems shooting you while you run , because of grokgottagofast addon

celest sparrow
#

GAMMA AI does struggle to hit the player due to the increased movement speed

humble shoal
#

ye , thats why i thought , and redone kind fixed it

celest sparrow
#

But the increase of accuracy is noticeable regardless of the situation you find yourself

humble shoal
#

but im not sure they are more accurate when you shot out of cover

#

atleast its not as noticeable

#

but imo basic gamma AI is just cringe sometimes

#

even with redone AI does stupid shit , like just start to reloading while standing still in the open

#

The issues GAMMA has are also present within Combat AI ReDone but I do believe that they are lot more present outside of the things it does right

humble shoal
#

i personally never do it, even late game with 90% ballistic you can easily die if you try to fight npcs in the open

celest sparrow
#

I do believe it does pretty well by making combat a lot more dynamic, having to change cover a lot more relevant as NPCs seem to be a pretty aggressive by tracking your last known locations

Just doesn't feel right in a Stalker game, but what do I know

i wonder whats like to start off as a monolith but you have high rep with any of the opposing factions

while also staying with monolith, the faction you started off as instead of changing factions despite your high rep

or not exactly anyway

not "all"

im wondering if its worth playing call of pripyat cuz i finished clear sky and SoC, and im not familliar with the maps jupiter etc inside of gamma, but wasnt call of pripyat bad or am i wrong?

oh- 😭

Just do it. Nothing to lose really

Just shitty lore in comparison to the earlier games, but still fairly good

mm okay, i played the other 2 games in 2023 , i might try cop then, i have 30 mins in it but i was quickly done w it ig back then lol

#

pretty crazy that both games combined took me 45 hours to beat but i cant remember or think about how it couldve taken that long since i also mainly just did the story quests and little to no sidequests

weary cedar
#

CoP was actually good

steep hull
#

oh 😳

solid shoal
#

COP is the worst stalker game, despite still being an alright game

#

COP represented a walk back in many of Stalker's aspects for the sake of a fast dev cycle and experience with less bugs

Probably one of the biggest mods for Anomaly period

#

Turned my game from a slideshow to 60fps locked

astral estuary
burnt swallow
#

its wirus

#

stop spreading misinfo juan

normal island
#

Only downside is that it takes a lot of time to load initially

#

Like 2-3x the normal time

#

But like, mostly no stutters, even bloated inventories load much faster and obviously the performance

#

Which is literally night and day

#

I always struggle with performance on the sarcophagus because I bump my stalker population up with ZCP and with that, nothing, perfect

stuck zephyr
#

what we talking about?

astral estuary
#

and people say it's "resident"

normal island
#

Nah it's not coming to gamma as a base probably

#

But you can still just download it and add it yourself, it's not more difficult than updating the modded exes

stuck zephyr
#

??? still confused

burnt swallow
#

🚨 dont listen to juan hes ragebaiting 🚨

normal island
#

Also i'm using the 2.0 version, apparently in the newer version the loading time is not that bad anymore?

#

and they fixed a couple of issues? so that's cool

#

Haven't played Anomaly in a while so I haven't had a reason to update it

normal island
#

Yeah it's pretty cool

#

Sad that as regular with this stupid, cancerous community the drama gets in the way of progress and it's probably not comming to the modded exes

lossless scaling or what are you talking about?

AOE gets treated the same was as LS was during it's peak hype

"guys free fps just get lossless scaling!!!"

and then it turned out that you need more than just a shitbox to get anything from it

same deal here

burnt swallow

ye but ls is on steam

if your specs are dogshit you won't benefit from any optimizations

but i'm commenting on the "hype"

yee its valid

and how it's advertised without additional info

We don't necessarily claim the addon doesn't work, same as AT or literally anything else unless proven to just not work

To us it's just about the approach they take, user can do what they want but don't expect us to provide support and cry over whatever you did

I prefer if someone is to advertise despite automod at least mention that you need more than a 2010 shitbox and that it comes with it's own fair share of issues and visual glitches
Not to mention being built on old exes version

normal island
#

They literally build it on top of the most recent EXEs when they compile tho

frank oxide
#

I didn't see any difference, the game felt like it runs worse with it active
therefore it's possible for it to just not work as advertised

normal island
#

As for the drama and ego piss battles

#

That's just regular STALKER Community stuff

This server doesn't shy away from hosting and protecting equally problematic and shitty people so that seems odd to single them out

lowered brightness to half, fuck it

but if i make the game run in fullscreen then it's too dark

burnt swallow

then it kinda is pitch black at 21 no matter what

#

not always but

frank oxide
#

ah so intended

#

gotcha

burnt swallow
#

thing is

#

well there are 2 things

#

1 is that some nights on 0.9.5 are broken as fuck

#

due to weather editor having humors

#

and second thing is that cycles are varied

#

but at 21 it should always be quite dark

#

ranging from

#

pitch black - dark

frank oxide
#

i probably gotten used to atmos which is rather bright near all the time

burnt swallow
#

most likely yes

#

i made the nights this way so that youre forced to use a flashlight or nvgs (or just sleep lmao)

#

since as we know the mod is increasing the difficulty

rocky flume
#

I should probably change night brightness and stuff, I started placing lamps all over Rostok cause it's fucking pitch black at night

burnt swallow
#

these

#

dont work

#

or work halfass

#

80% of settings tied to weather have 0 effect

frank oxide
#

placing lamps
one day later
guys why hanging_lamp crash????

burnt swallow
#

like vanilla anomaly settings in the menu is what i mean

rocky flume
frank oxide
#

the fix is basically... undo placement of those objects

but what if it's too dark now

Ok well I haven't crashed yet, there's maybe 10 or so lamps around so far

in a community that has thrived in its open source ideals since its inception

which sounds weird now that i type it out

but it was a mutual agreement

#

people in this server that complained about the malware possibility, while correct, are retarded in a way

because of the way gamma is distributed

it's mega stupid to only now be worrying about getting malware

There's way more of a risk of gamma having a virus than that having a virus

gamma just fucking breaks for a week

not because of the malware

what if one of the many mod authors decides to do peacenotwar 2

burnt swallow
#

is this a threat

i must consult john gamma

lethal steeple
#

the way gamma is distributed presents a lot of inherent risks

normal island
#

More than a single fucking file you download from a public link, that's for sure

the fact that none of them have been exploited doesn't mean it's safe

it couldn't find it so it proceeded to install ALL ADDONS that were down the list into that MP9 mod folder before proceeding to the other mods

Outcome?
