Link, I wanna research more

at least you don't get Kentucky Ballistic'd in game

[last mesa]

and yeah other faction being hostile to the sin

[white field]

I think we have it good

tactical slop?

[prisma crag]

Thatd be incredibly funny

[white field]

I know

[last mesa]

imagine 20% of your HP went kaput

[white field]

1 in 1000 chance of looted ammo to kill you

[last mesa]

and bleed

[frank oxide]

why do people use gamma as the starting ground

[prisma crag]

[white field]

convenience

[formal wing]

#groksinfluence

[prisma crag]

Oh
So this is gamma but worse

[last mesa]

you ask me

[frank oxide]

so that's basically the gamma downloads folder with changes?

[last mesa]

consider GAMMA is the only modular modpack that in theory has the most mod supporting it

[lapis nacelle]

also is Sin like controlled or are they led by a person like Chernobog?

[prisma crag]

I do plan on adding whatever it is that causes your mask to accurately cover the screen and toxic air

[prisma crag]

Yeah
Gamma but worse

[last mesa]

the original concept never talk about that

[prisma crag]

Yet another gamma clone

[frank oxide]

meh

[last mesa]

consider the dark stalker is the monolith in cut content

[frank oxide]

modpacks get released like every other day

your average chat fool releases a modpack weekly

[prisma crag]

Ok but what fucking mod makes your mask look like that
I hate the defualt mask

[frank oxide]

download and see

[last mesa]

well in cut content the Sin should be half zombified stalkers

[prisma crag]

nvm I found it

OH GOD

[frank oxide]

that's so ass

[prisma crag]

Now that looks cool

[lapis nacelle]

That mod sucks

I played with it

[white field]

enjoy the game fuckface, or at least what you see of it

[formal wing]

i gotta try project invernus or whatever it is

[sick yoke]

jesus christ (somehow this is still smaller than gamma)

[lapis nacelle]

its not

[prisma crag]

its like that when it gets damaged.
So just repair your shit and you can enjoy the game. Probably not gonna keep it, but imma try it out

[frank oxide]

what

[lapis nacelle]

gamma is ~120 GB

[frank oxide]

GAMMA is 125GB after finish

[last mesa]

consider a lot of content in gamma is not being used

[lapis nacelle]

space for 1.0 ...

[last mesa]

yeah it's 125gb

[frank oxide]

you only get to +125 if you keep updating over old installs and install custom mods

because gamma/downloads doesn't get automatically cleared

and you bloat it further with your own mods

[sick yoke]

anon's was 200 lol

[prisma crag]

Yeah my current install is 155 gigs cause of mods

[last mesa]

that just extra mods

[frank oxide]

base modpack now is 16GB Anomaly + 110GB GAMMA

[sick yoke]

but it's probably him updating dev2

[frank oxide]

updating in general

[formal wing]

i'm sitting around 150 myself and more than 90% of the extra 30 odd gigabytes is just the anomaly radio revamp

[frank oxide]

because as i said - downloads folder gets filled with old versions of mods

with some weighing 1-2GB per update

[sick yoke]

does that mean you can technically backpatch lol

[small ermine]

[frank oxide]

atmos and 3dss are the main culprits

[small ermine]

damn thats like gamma 2 years ago

[prisma crag]

Mines just various texture packs and sound related mods
Rest is FWP and grass/trees + weather mods

[frank oxide]

if you can get old mods to work sure

i have drives with SSS21 and SSS22 for example
but i can't get them to work properly without visual bugs

[sick yoke]

😔

[patent parcel]

is it gonna be another gamma killer

[formal wing]

i've felt basically no need to really mod GAMMA beyond what it already is

game looks great

looks great for someone that likes vaguely shitty looking games anyway

it's immersive ...

[frank oxide]

[patent parcel]

Tales from The Zone, remember that

[frank oxide]

there's been like 10 different killers

TFTZ was a schizobuild

we don't talk about that

open world map on boosty

[sick yoke]

everything's a gamma killer

[frank oxide]

all those modpacks who set their goal as "xyz killer" are doomed to fail eventually

[sterile iron]

wtf is this (in rostok)

[frank oxide]

back when you had original shit

[formal wing]

looks like a miser's skull

[frank oxide]

now everything looks the same and tries to up one another with the same shit

[white field]

gamba is installing

[sterile iron]

how is that there

[patent parcel]

idk why they think they have a chance, just make your own with your own vision

[formal wing]

artifacts don't really have any perameters for where they can spawn

[sterile iron]

i cant even get it

[lethal steeple]

caca was never out to be a gamma killer but it died before even starting out because both juan and i lost motivation in stalker modding

[formal wing]

well they DO but those perameters don't blacklist them spawning in unreachable areas

you will often find artifacts spawning in buildings you can't access in outskirts and yes, rostok, for example

[sterile iron]

so that could be like a t3?

just outside the map

[formal wing]

you're in rostok and it's visible from that far away so it's probably garbage don't worry

[sterile iron]

didnt read ur msg

thx g

never seen this

[formal wing]

i've had artifacts spawn on top of the entrance to the 100 Rads

[frank oxide]

what was the premise of caca anyway, i kept hearing about it for the last 2 years

[lethal steeple]

arcade extremely streamlined anomaly

[sick yoke]

if it's visible from further than 2 pixels away it's automatically a perkifact

[lethal steeple]

that's about it

[sterile iron]

thats where im standing xd

[frank oxide]

interesting

so kinda like trilogized anomaly but without the jank

[lethal steeple]

in the vast neverending ocean of tarkov "we're actually not like tarkov" anomaly modpacks we wanted an arcade anomaly

kinda yeah

[prisma crag]

mask mod isnt so bad

[frank oxide]

well it would be a breath of fresh air

or sounds like it at least

[formal wing]

tbf it's surprisingly hard to get first person visible facemasks/helmets in games right

[lethal steeple]

i honestly ended up not believing in the idea in the long run

[prisma crag]

I honestly like this better then the vanilla one

[lethal steeple]

as in it was only worth the time as a "shock factor" thing

[prisma crag]

Each mask/helm has a different overlay

[lethal steeple]

without that much substance to back it up

because like how do you keep the freeplay curse going

[prisma crag]

At night it does not affect visabilty at all

[formal wing]

from what i understand the vanilla one is basically just a JPEG over-top the screen so any change is probably night and day

[lethal steeple]

this one is also just an image that's drawn on the screen

but it looks better than the default one

[prisma crag]

Drunks miserable masks is so much fucking better then that shit lmao

[formal wing]

but look.. a realistic vignette resembling a gas mask or helmet !!!!11!

[lethal steeple]

at least he seems to have removed the cracked glass he had earlier on the mod

[prisma crag]

That still happens when it gets damaged

[lethal steeple]

i despise that shit not because it's visual clutter but because it was baked to the texture and wasn't tied to helmet health at all

that's vanilla anomaly behavior

[prisma crag]

Just like vanilla it gets worse the more damaged it is

[lethal steeple]

yeah

[prisma crag]

I prefer this ngl

[lethal steeple]

what i'm saying is that earlier on he had the mask overlay texture with the cracked glass baked to it

[patent parcel]

navs with blurred looks cleaner, drunks messes with the colors and shi

[lethal steeple]

ON TOP of anomaly's cracked glass overlay

[prisma crag]

This is what my shit currently looks like

I need to add useful idiots

[lethal steeple]

useful idiots is in vanilla gamma

[formal wing]

[lethal steeple]

you sound like the type of guy to want to get the ergonomics mod

[prisma crag]

I can live with that if every other time it looks like thios

ignore im in god mode, game bugged the fuck out

and kept killing me on transition

[patent parcel]

meh vanilla better than both

[formal wing]

i can respect the use of debug mode only because it is basically a requirement for base-building(for SOME objects in SOME places in the state that it's in Currently)

i keep losing my light-bulbs in ceilings and can never get them back

[prisma crag]

The what?

[frank oxide]

press capslock before placing then

[lethal steeple]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/modded-exes-handling-as-ergonomics

[formal wing]

i'm aware of how to use the build mode

the problem is just that it's inconsistent

[prisma crag]

Oh fuck that shit

I like my game to at least be fun

[lethal steeple]

and have a stat that does literally nothing?

[frank oxide]

people love lying to themselves

handling does do stuff!!!

[prisma crag]

Nuh uh

[patent parcel]

what in tarkovsky is this

[formal wing]

handling is good handling is good...

https://tenor.com/view/copium-meme-pepe-frog-gif-26117735

[lethal steeple]

a mod that dynamically changes time to ads and un ads based on your weapon's handling stat

[frank oxide]

ads speed increase makes it sound like old cod

0.1ms to irons on smg with quickdraw

[patent parcel]

when extraction mode

[prisma crag]

Sounds so great!

Honestly might try it for shits and giggles

[rare bridge]

good spots for a first base for a Duty Run? likely wont move past Army Warehouses for quite some time

[frank oxide]

i just realized

the fucking rtac modpack

[lethal steeple]

there's not that many weapons with less than 80% handling for the mod to be a "nerf" to the player

since 80% handling results in the vanilla anomaly 0.25s to fully ads

[small ermine]

[patent parcel]

145gb installation size

[prisma crag]

NO WAY LMAO

Who the fuck drops the HK G28

I kinda want one

[patent parcel]

modpack based on gamma what

modpack for a modpack

[small ermine]

Nah

Modpack for anomaly

[patent parcel]

This modpack was originally based on STALKER GAMMA

[small ermine]

Was as in
It's also a modpack for anomaly

[patent parcel]

so both

[small ermine]

No not really

[frank oxide]

it's the definition of "i'll take gamma as base and build my own modpack using the same mods"

[small ermine]

It just means it used alot of the mods gamma uses
Like anyother modpack

[frank oxide]

apparently not his first upload either

previous one got taken down

or at least that's how i understood it

[faint fern]

ayo whys he doing that

[patent parcel]

could be anything, someone gotta try it out

[frank oxide]

pipnik would know more

[small ermine]

prob for being 1to1 rip of gamma

[frank oxide]

[patent parcel]

[small ermine]

nah already telling by the description
its gamma without the bloat dead mods

and prob 3 or 4 gun packs on it

[lethal steeple]

wow better gamma

@burnt terrace

wait what the fuck he joined back?

[small ermine]

making my own gamma with hoookers and blackjack

[lethal steeple]

he isn't in the server

why did it let me tag him by server nickname

[small ermine]

no idea honestly

unless discord lets up ping dead people now

It was more of a statement, but you do you queen.

[topaz tide]

Im down like 5 beers, I now desire whisky

But I cant actually get too drunk cause I dont want to have a hangover at work

5 beers is not enough to get me drunk cause they are small and only 12%

[quasi python]

can you not just convert a DDS to PNG and ai upscale it, then convert it back to DDS with GIMP? I did it with a UI mod texture and its all chopped off and stuff when I load the game after replacing the old DDS files with the upscaled ones...

[prisma crag]

[quasi python]

and when i preview them in GIMP they look the same as the orginal but in 4k... so why does it fuck it up in the game?

[lethal steeple]

my guess is compression

[topaz tide]

ig some xml that says this texture is x by y pixels big

[lethal steeple]

oh also that

true

[quasi python]

https://i.imgur.com/KZKaMid.jpeg

im using BC... whatever 3 for the compression

idk i just started messing with upscaling an hour ago

just wondering if im missing something simple

[topaz tide]

also ui should not have mipmaps

iirc

[quasi python]

trying to make a S2 hud fit better for 4k

[topaz tide]

not sure if it's problem if it have them

[quasi python]

yea i did check that in gimp when converting back to DDS

didnt*

[hasty haven]

Any info on when the next big update is planned?

[white field]

fuck

anyways, gn everyone

[frank oxide]

[dawn marten]

@white field Have less than #📍577-mods-in-mo2?

1. Make sure you have the latest GAMMA launcher (currently, v6.7.0.0)

If you don't have the latest launcher, use !v6 in #🤖bot-commands and follow instructions.

2. Temporarily disable your antivirus if you have Avast, AVG, Norton or Malwarebytes
3. Close Mod Organizer 2
4. Open the GAMMA Launcher
5. (optional) Disable "force git download" and "force zip extraction". This will make it go quicker.
6. Click "Install / Update" and wait for it to finish completely.
7. Re-open Mod Organizer 2.

[white field]

ik but I'm too tired to do that today xd

and I have to wake up in 4 hours

[prisma crag]

[prisma crag]

Slight oversight

name the gun just from this

[quasi python]

is there a way to give yourself lives in ironman? i started one after reinstalling gamma and had to start playing around with game settings and NOW im ready

but i only has 1 life

[white field]

Fuck ass ar

[prisma crag]

M4 protector, so yert

[quasi python]

protector big good tho

[prisma crag]

MF dont you sposed to be sleeping?

[prisma crag]

It fucking sucks after BS

Absolute dook shart

[white field]

My lawyers have advised me not to answer such questions.

[quasi python]

oh yea after that im using a 7.62 of somesort

[prisma crag]

SA-58 OSW For the win

[quasi python]

fosho

[white field]

That sentence made me cream bröther

[quasi python]

the desert tech is good too

[white field]

I miss that gun so much

[prisma crag]

It carried me through my last invictus run

I had such a gae build

[white field]

My problem with it is that I keep only using that 😭

And RAPTR

[prisma crag]

max br, so I was unkillable in the south, 120% movement speed, SA-58 OSW with thermal, M98B with thermal, and a KSG-23

[prisma crag]

I plan on trying something new this run for my late game gun

not sure what I want yet

Might use the MDR maybe

[white field]

I will prolly try playing a diff faction as well cuz I keep playing Merc from dead city

[prisma crag]

I'm doing zero to hero ending off as clear sky

I am currently freedom, about to go become CS

renegade -> bandit -> freedom -> clear sky, then complete all 3 story lines

and get max rep

[white field]

Gl mate

Anyways I'm off to eep finally

[prisma crag]

Its not my first time

My first time i did invictus on top of it

fucking sucked

but renegade is very fun

best start imo

Maybe I'll use the AMB-17, or the RD 939

[quasi python]

im gonna see how long i can roll this ironman run with just the Kar98

[patent parcel]

thinking about doing a duty run with only ak and makarov

and duty only armor for the whole game

[crimson moss]

Guys, there is a black ball flying around and I need to destroy it, any tip?

already shot it 20 bullets and nothing happens

[quasi python]

use proper ammo like hydrashock or shotgun. its quite hard to hit but youll hear a certain noise when you do get a hit on it.

[solar chasm]

That or huck a grenade at it

You can do that to the black smokey balls and orange firey balls

Don't do it to the blue sparky balls

[formal wing]

grenade is probably the way to go

i've never encountered a black ball

is it some sort of poltergeist variant

[prisma crag]

Someone should make a mod that adds dual render scopes

Like this without the blur

[formal wing]

dual-render or picture-in-picture

[prisma crag]

Either

[formal wing]

is there a difference

from what i've heard it's just really too performance intensive

for the anomaly engine anyway

[prisma crag]

I know dual render is super performance intensive

but pip really isnt

[radiant star]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1381483891818233999

[prisma crag]

Well compared to dual render pip isnt that bad

[prisma crag]

[formal wing]

i'm already only running at most like 50 frames(which is acceptable for me at 4K) in the relatively chill areas of this game and that's with my relatively recent upgrade to a 3080 and another 8gb of ram

[prisma crag]

3080 isnt a great option at 4k, but working with what you got

Like period

my 7900XTX struggles in alot of titles in 4k to hit 60

[formal wing]

yeah working with what i have is the goal to be honest

[prisma crag]

Honestly, I would buy a 1440p monitor and use the 4k as a secondary

[formal wing]

i started getting into computers when i was younger and ended up buying a lot of stuff second-hand that i've frankenstein'd into a half-decent setup

[prisma crag]

Thatd be your best route

[formal wing]

right now i have the 4K as my main monitor with a 1920x1080 monitor as no. 2

[lethal steeple]

dual render and picture in picture are both dual renders, it's like in the name

it's the same thing

[prisma crag]

There is a difference

its like

not visual at all

[lethal steeple]

brother it's the same thing

[prisma crag]

They do the same thing

[formal wing]

i've thought about up/regrading especially considering that i've never had a monitor with a refresh rate above 60hz and i hear it's like night and day

[lethal steeple]

you probably just saw two different implementations being called those two ways

it's the same thing

[prisma crag]

No.
One is straight up an overlay
The other is an actual render

It really doesnt matter since they do the exact same thing

but its there nonetheless

There is no drawback or advantage to the other really

other then a few fps

like thats it

But both harm performance

[formal wing]

i would say that is a drawback/advantage to one or the other though

[prisma crag]

Go on

[lethal steeple]

bro how do you think they work

[formal wing]

i mean unless one is truly significantly less complicated than the other isn't choosing the one that leads to better end user performance Always going to be the better option

[lethal steeple]

like actually

do you think it's just a super enhance zoom like in hacker scenes in movies

if it's not a second render

where does the game grab the pixels to make the inside of the scope looks so clear if it's so far away in your main render

how does the game convert that 3x1 pixel person into a full model

[radiant star]

https://tenor.com/view/uhhh-uhh-gif-26658654

[lethal steeple]

my thoughts exactly

[formal wing]

everyone in this thread talking about how it halves their FPS 😭

[lethal steeple]

why would that be the case if it's not dual render but PIP

huh

[prisma crag]

I know they are literally the same thing.
But they are 2 different ways of going about it.
Im to retarded to know how either works nor do I care for how they work

[formal wing]

god tihs is some nerdy shit in this thread

[prisma crag]

Thats acceptable

For me at least

I run it at like 140-160 often higher

"often" being not often at all

I play with somewhat high grass density and play with the 4k rotten life which barely takes down a few fps

If I played with a low grass density at my current settings/mods i could easily hit 180 fps

I've got a rather beefy pc

[formal wing]

haven't touched any of the visual settings besides adjusting the.. heh... Gamma every now and again...

disabled motion blur if it's on by default

i dont know if it is

[prisma crag]

I play at defualt settings other then slightly higher grass density and 1.4 color saturation

but I have pancerides grass and trees autumn, rotten life, and melancholy and I think thats it as far as graphical mods

@formal wing what cpu do you have

[formal wing]

something old and garbage i think

ryzen 5 3600

[prisma crag]

you could potentially benefit from mod thats banned from being mentioned here, but it really helps performance

[prisma crag]

Imma message you in dms real fast

nvm cant dm you

funny

[formal wing]

you could try again

sorry my privacy settings are set to Very Private

[prisma crag]

Its banned cause its closed source, but all it does is make gamma use 4 cpu cores instead of one

[formal wing]

does gamma only use one cpu core

[prisma crag]

Yes

[formal wing]

does ANOMALY only use one cpu core

that's funny

why

[prisma crag]

Yes

Cause old

[formal wing]

fair enough

[hard summit]

XRay engine is old and outdated

[prisma crag]

check dms

[proven raptor]

it was already old and outdated the day it came out

[prisma crag]

Gotta love russians giving me a 15% boost in fps

[patent parcel]

not exact 50%, more like 25%

[patent parcel]

make that 100%, shits insane

some voodoo magic

[prisma crag]

It didnt do much for me on this cpu

my old cpu it did

[patent parcel]

need some gpu headroom, i dropped to 1080p with rsr to 2k and it runs much better

at native it doesnt do anything other than boost loading time

[prisma crag]

Eh I get 140-160 fps at 1440p

I dont need a boost

[patent parcel]

i get like 90 without it native

[prisma crag]

I have the highest end AMD system available, I didnt need the mod in the first place

[patent parcel]

what cpu

[prisma crag]

9950X3D

[patent parcel]

ofcourse, all i have is a 5700x3d

[prisma crag]

Still good

great even

Ive seen it paired with 5090s

I honestly expected more FPS then i currently get

[patent parcel]

yeah i would expect

[prisma crag]

But that was because ive seen people with my same setup running it at 200

140 is fine though

no complaints

Again, super high grass density, graphics mods

ect

[patent parcel]

ofcourse, i just run vanilla

little to no grass trying to get fps

[prisma crag]

Oh shoot I've been running it with AVX turned on im dumb as hell

[hard summit]

is that banned mod the one that's an MO2 plugin?

[prisma crag]

I wasnt getting the boost from the mod

[patent parcel]

[prisma crag]

Starts with AO ends with E

Ok lets see what fps I get now

Gotta wait for it to load in

game crashed on launch

[patent parcel]

gotta let it do its thing or freezes

[hard summit]

ah that

[prisma crag]

Oh it didnt crash just froze

we in

193 fps

No fucking way

[formal wing]

since i swapped to linux, it's interesting, i can watch the player-camera "spin into view" during the load screens

[patent parcel]

enjoy those loading times

almost instant

[prisma crag]

Linux

Gamma never worked on linux for me

I dual boot that shit

[formal wing]

it's not hard to set up

[hard summit]

does anomaly work natively on Linux/Unix systems

[formal wing]

no, you have to run it using winetricks and also pre-build a wineprefix

[prisma crag]

But I dont want to have to set it up

[hard summit]

aw

[formal wing]

there's a tutorial i followed somewhere out there on the internet

[hard summit]

running it through wine can't be very performant surely

[formal wing]

on the contrary i have better performance than i did on windows

[prisma crag]

50 fps with a 3080

[hard summit]

huh wild

[prisma crag]

tbf at 4k

but even gamma

I just witness a dutier execute a freedomer at 190fps

Anyway

[formal wing]

it runs well over 60FPS at 2K but i have a 59hz monitor so getting above 50/60 is not really something i care about

[prisma crag]

4k 60hz on a 3080
Gotta respect it I guess

But good god I could not, not after being spoiled by 360hz

[hard summit]

with Windows 10 support reaching its end, I was considering moving over to a unix OS, but since all I play is GAMMA right now, I didn't wanna ruin my game and save files and be unable to play it at decent performance

[formal wing]

is what it is 😛

[prisma crag]

W10 to W11 is free

Just do it

I did

[hard summit]

Windows 11 is not as bad as everyone says

its overhated lmao

[patent parcel]

windows 11 does suck balls but its what you have

[hard summit]

I'm not hating on Windows 11, I'm hating on Windows

[prisma crag]

its not great but its way overhated

[patent parcel]

you still get windows 10 support with ltsc

[prisma crag]

Just dual boot linux

[formal wing]

so much of windows is bloat but i can respect that it really does Just Work 99% of the time

[prisma crag]

W11 for what needs it
Linux for everything else

both are free and honestly worth it

[formal wing]

windows 11 is free?

[prisma crag]

That is a tiny ass gun

[prisma crag]

Upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 is

[hard summit]

[prisma crag]

Windows 11 from scratch is not

ltsc enterprise on 11 doesnt come with all the bloat and AI bs

[prisma crag]

Yeah its what I did
I didnt lose anything

Didnt lose anything, still get to use my pc

[formal wing]

windows is bloated just because of how they've chosen to build their OS

[prisma crag]

Just use tiny 11

[formal wing]

nah i use arch 🤓

Debloats + without security risks of actual debloaters

[patent parcel]

i would not trust them, debloat it yourself rather than using shady iso

[hard summit]

I think there's a community-made installer somewhere on the web that allows you to download a really really stripped back version of Win 11

[prisma crag]

I mean I debloated myself, but my kid used tiny 11 and its fine

Tiny has been around since windows 10

they are perfectly safe

Only security risk involved is if you choose to remove the TMP 2.0 requirements, which is a choice

[patent parcel]

still there is alot of custom iso on the internet being recommended to boost fps and shi, mostly kids fall for it

[prisma crag]

Yeah that is true

but Tiny11 is perfectly fine

its purely to allow older systems to use windows 11, or to remove the useless crap

Or make a custom ISO yourself

Thats what I did

[patent parcel]

thats perfectly fine

Gonna replace it with an M98B asap though

[white field]

g'morning time to troubleshoot real quick

[gaunt agate]

your kit

[prisma crag]

Whatabout it is boss?

Ive got a merc pathfinder I need to repair

[gaunt agate]

decent mask, okay armor, good assault rifle, and a sniper to make up for all the other shortcomings basically

[prisma crag]

And I refuse to use the apoc helm with the drunks miserable masks mod

Not because I cant see anything, but because for some reason its the only mask where your health overlay is underneath the mask overlay

Also I kinda want a ranger mask

thatd be cool

[prisma crag]

I hate this AR in the north

5.56 sucks anything that isnt south of BS

I want an SA-58 OSW so bad

Or an AMB-17

[gaunt agate]

stay on the grind

[prisma crag]

There needs to be a mask thats just 50 cigarettes

[hard summit]

AMB-17 is my workhorse gun

[normal island]

Yes to both

[hard summit]

it got me through loads of my early playthroughs

[prisma crag]

SA-58 OSW is just so much fun to use

OP with thermals

AMB-17 is great too

[white field]

Hi börka

[prisma crag]

[hard summit]

I've never used the OSW. I almost did on an ironman run but lost the run before I could fix it

well, it had a green barrel

the problem was that I didn't have a trader at a high enough supply level to give me any ammo for it

[white field]

dw

traders will sell like 2 mags of ammo at max

[hard summit]

and I hadn't gotten gunsmithing tools yet either

[white field]

or 4, i don't remember

since it's .308 the ammo is both expensive as shit and scarse as shit

[prisma crag]

.308 isnt that hard to get late game

[white field]

I think the traders sell 120 regular and 120 AP iirc

I haven't played in a year don't rely on my words as valid info

[prisma crag]

iirc they sell up to 240 each now, might be dumb

[hard summit]

I think at level 3 they sell 30 ball

[white field]

oh nice

[hard summit]

level 4 puts it up to 60

and level 5 introduces the AP version

hmmm this might be outdated

[white field]

possibly

[hard summit]

unless I'm just misremembering

[prisma crag]

So glad to be 1500 goodwill with cs

[hard summit]

cause I could've sworn it starts at 30 rounds at lvl 3

[white field]

but you can always just buy every type of ammo that uses SR ammo parts and disassemble them to craft more ammo for yourself

that's what I've always done

[prisma crag]

Yeah since I never use AP .308 I just scrap it to make normal lmao

[white field]

damn I always used AP for motherfucking ISG squads

I've never really used 7.62x51 guns before. I've only just started recently, but I've also started playing only ironman mode recently meaning I never get far enough into the game to get a decent supply of the ammo

[white field]

aight gonna do my hair before I leave so I don't look THAT homeless today

[prisma crag]

Imma be real

If I find an RD-939 before an OSW

im running the 939 the rest of the game

[hard summit]

I've never found an RD-939

I'm not convinced it even exists

[prisma crag]

I've found a few

its insanely op

[hard summit]

I've farmed UNISG for many in-game days at a time in each playthrough and still nothing

I've found so many of the RD variants

just never the 939

[prisma crag]

if the RD-704 was 7.62x51 it would be the best gun in the game

or the RD-47 ISG

Lowkey
RD-704, RD-47 or RD-939 before OSW and I might just keep that, not sure yet

[white field]

just install the mod that lets you swap calibers

[viral quiver]

Guys, is there ANY mod that increases companion react time? Ever since i downloaded re:done packs my companions are dumber than a goldfish, they deadass just stand around idle when they're being mauled by mutants

[covert belfry]

omg, i did it

[viral quiver]

This pretty much sums it up does any of you have any mods/idea to fix dis?

[hollow wadi]

Users when STALKER wasn't really made with companions in mind

[viral quiver]

So, you got the solution, or?

I mean, mine doesn't even react to enemies man, it took em legit 30 SECONDS to realize someone is shooting at them

[hollow wadi]

Oh no, if they die they die, if they ignore enemies they ignore enemies

That's the way I like my STALKER

Janky

Braindead NPCs the moment it's not me they're two-shotting

[viral quiver]

[last mesa]

your average walking meat bag

[ashen plover]

Don't use companions

But from my experience companions become much more effective once you turn on hardcore AI aim
||Which affects all NPCs, so have fun when your enemies can actually aim||

[ashen stag]

companions try not to push me out of cover and get me shot challenge impossible

[latent elbow]

Maybe it's because of your mod, because vanilla Gamma companions are useful (imo) and does not seem to have the behavior you describe, they react to enemies and shoot back (as long as you don't put them in no combat mod of course lol).
Of course better rank companions aim better than rookies

[cunning patio]

@radiant fog this is my default portrait actually

I type here because newbie chat has the shitty slow mode which I can't stand

[radiant fog]

ok

[cunning patio]

yeah ok from what I can tell there is no way I think you have to use the portrait you picked for any and other custom ones

[radiant fog]

thats the best way to do it, but i know i changed mine thro the instructions of the command, when i already picked one

[cunning patio]

unless there's a ltx file that dictates which pfp you chose

[radiant fog]

i believe the file in that guide just makes the profile icon into that specificaly

[cunning patio]

yeah i dont want that due to the fact that every stalkerwith the same icon also gets custom vergil

[radiant fog]

player icon is not the same as npc icons afaik

[cunning patio]

they are

I did the way the gudie told me and some stalkers inside the task menu also get vergil

its one big file that acts as a map for each and all icons

[radiant fog]

no, or i would see a blobfish everytime the pda messages fails to load a icon for an npc and it still says the unknown one

[cunning patio]

then why the fuck did vergil appear

on some freedomers

despite the fact that I only put him on the place of that icon above in the chat

[radiant fog]

idk. could also be missremembering for this save and i replaced a different one tbf

[cunning patio]

which one would be the console command then

[radiant fog]

trying to find info on it. lemme see

[cunning patio]

if there is one even

[radiant fog]

well i found the file that directs what suit/what type of UI file it uses for the player. give me a min to see if its easier to just utilize that

[cunning patio]

if there is no command I'll just put my stalker pepe inside the actor UI file and be done with it

[radiant fog]

afaik there isnt any command for the ingame stuff, i think you missunderstood when i said "command" as in the server !portrait command

[cunning patio]

wtf why is it so white

damn so sunny

[radiant fog]

check weather editor so its not set to "default" weather preset, which does that

[proven raptor]

this is my kingdom come

[cunning patio]

ok now its fixed

wtf

I havent even touched the weather bullshit

[radiant fog]

it does that sometimes when it fails to load the proper preset i believe

[cunning patio]

maybe I have without noticing when doing testing in debug level

such is live in teh zone

[radiant fog]

ye i cant find much in terms of the ui files, and im too tired to really think properly, incase i missed an important detail or such. try to use the search in discord, incase someone knows an easy solution

[steep cloak]

MAYBE you shouldnt hog up on that S.T.A.L.K.E.R energy drinks I had in my stash huh?! ENJOY THE 200MG OF BENADRYL I STUCK IN THOSE CANS! YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES UNTIL DEATH!

Frfr

[viral quiver]

It aint about whether their aim is dogshid or nah, it's just that their head is completely empty, it took all 4 of my companions 30 seconds to realize they're being shot at

[ashen plover]

Sounds like custom mods being broken

[viral quiver]

Hm... Maybe? I only had re:done and kvma, that's it

[viral quiver]

[latent elbow]

I don't know if those can break companions ia or whatever but from my experience companions surely aren't the smartest of the Zone but do things and fight enemies

Haló everyone

[crimson moss]

Did you guys spawned more mutants inside the miracle machine?

Mate I played like 6 months ago, started again now and there is like 2 bloodsuckers, 3 controlers 8 snorks

psy zombies WTF I think I'm soft locked

[celest sparrow]

L Bozo

At least he wasn't here when MM had Sin

3 Controllers though

Did you disable something

[fading plinth]

mm with sin was kinda ez tho

[crimson moss]

nothing mate, I think I need to record this, killed in total 4 bloodsuckers, 6 snorks at entrance, killed 2 burers and there is 2 more up there with 3 snorks and 2 psy zombies

like mate HOW AM I SUPOSE TO HANDLE THIS

[drifting temple]

Weren't the sin easy to cheese because they all got stuck at the ladder in the beginning

[crimson moss]

my shotgun ammo is out, I really think I'm soft locked

[drifting temple]

I only remember having to deal with 2 or 3 of them in the actual chamber

[crimson moss]

Yeah, I tough that was the normal spawn, 2 or 3 with some snorks

anyone has any useful tip?

[drifting temple]

Come back with more ammo? Afaik there's no timer for the mm to be shut off like the brain scorcher

You might need noclip to get back up to the entrance tho

[near estuary]

did they get removed

[robust echo]

just died cause a 100% condition weapon jammed how do i turn off that fuckass mod omfg

[celest sparrow]

Yeah, they kept dying to the Mutants as those spawns couldn't be assigned to a Squad
the Neutrality didn't apply to them so they attacked Sin

There was somewhat an idea as to remove the Scripted Mutant spawns inside MM as to avoid Sin from dying, but I guess removing Sin and increasing the amount of mutants was easier

[valid crater]

Load a savegame from before entering and come back with more ammunition.

[ashen stag]

maybe a grenade or two

grenades lowkey underrated i never see anyone use them in videos i watch

same with mines

[opal phoenix]

gotta be real careful with mines in MM

i lost a run to that fucking burer because shit eater flinged my own mine in my face

most trouble i had there was with the snorks under the elevator

[waxen plinth]

yep, those black 'nades absolutely wreck stuff. Especially Sin, they are nearly immune to bullet damage and very vulnerable to grenades

[opal phoenix]

black? thermite?

[waxen plinth]

yeah

saw a veteran Stalker streamer who recently admitted to never looting "smoke grenades" in GAMMA because they useless

[near estuary]

[opal phoenix]

smoke grenades?

Wait we have smoke grenades ?

[ashen plover]

I vaguely remember them being a thing in anomaly

what the fuck for

[loud fractal]

why is my pda so blindingly bright

Smoke grenades from "Urban Tactics" mod works pretty well

[opal phoenix]

more you know

[last mesa]

I mean it does work if you decide to give it the code

Hence funky foliage mod

💔

[cunning patio]

so after updating gamma athi's mod still by default doesn't fix the shit where enemies dont drop any ammo by the looks of it
Ichanged ammo drops to the max which is 2 and there isn't a single bullet

[last mesa]

If its same ass file

Gg

[cunning patio]

it is the same file

npc_mag_loadout bullshit

[last mesa]

You have to wait for new stalkers to spawn in anyways

[cunning patio]

why do we have athi's mag madness crap when that shit isn't fixed

its so dumb

[last mesa]

🥀

[cunning patio]

it takes 1 minute to take the default npc loadout file and replace it so enemies ACTUALLY HAVE AMMO IN TEH MAGS AS IT SHOULD BE

mags dont magically unload themselves ffs

[last mesa]

You better off starting a new file tbh

[opaque moss]

that mod especifically makes it like that lmao

to go on par with gamma's progression or something

[valid crater]

It was that way some time ago, there was some setting that changes that behaviour, either mags with ammo or none.

[cunning patio]

it doesn't

[opaque moss]

it literally does

[cunning patio]

I have ammo drops on 2 and no ammo is spawning

???

does it work only when new enemies spawn or what

[opaque moss]

no it just deletes the ammo from mags

[cunning patio]

why

ammo should be in the mags

its retarded that mags empty themselves

[opaque moss]

go yell at athi or something

[cunning patio]

thats why I said it doesn't fix shit

[opaque moss]

it fixes everything else, and that's included in the things "fixed"

[cunning patio]

idk imo ammo should be inside the mags so you unload them manually mag by mag

[sick yoke]

Only in gamma will people see qol and go “this is bad actually”

[opal phoenix]

man i wanna gamma

but ive got a fever and a headache,im gonna throw

[cunning patio]

fire rate on weapon upgrades dont do shit?

[cunning patio]

it was my bad it fixed itself

turns out the bandits I killed just had 0 rounds on them

in all honesty do any of hte gun upgrades actually do anything

or is that a system grok completely abbandoned

[small ermine]

That's vanilla

And yes they do work

They just don't mean anything by how little they impact the gun

[cunning patio]

bruh

when are we getting a upgrade kit rework

cuz that stuff is fun to do

craft and upgrade your guns

[drifting temple]

Idk I always thought the flatness upgrade helped with my bullets trajectory

Maybe I'm just coping

Placebo effect

[small ermine]

Those do work

It's just that most ppl don't notice it

[opal phoenix]

reliability was the one that didnt work right

[cunning patio]

yeah cuz I remember on armors and guns some worked and some didn't

also I upgraded my mp5 with fire rate and it doesn't update it in the stats menu it still says 800
peak

[small ermine]

Handling is the one that doesn't do shit

[opal phoenix]

i like weight reduction one a lot

its not much,but just enough to matter when im getting overencumbered

[drifting temple]

The ones you have to mod to fit a suppressor are fun

[cunning patio]

weight reduction on armor is goated

[opal phoenix]

SV98 zoom one

and extra slots on armor

[small ermine]

Not upgrading your armor would also save you weight

[opal phoenix]

oh yeah,since when are you limited to 1 pelt at a time

i feel like pelts were buffed overal ltoo

[small ermine]

Quite awhile now

They were

[opal phoenix]

yeah a lurker pelt at 100% is like 12-13kg additional carry weight

insane

[small ermine]

Pelts are just too strong to allow multiple

[opal phoenix]

i guess

[toxic coral]

is upgrades adding weight still arcane knowledge, i feel like not many noticed that

[opal phoenix]

i wonder how good are the chimera/pseudo ones

[viral quiver]

Hm.... Is there some kind of "dont attack unless they attack first" Mechanic in the game? Maybe that's why

[small ermine]

Nah each upgrade adds 1 or 2 kg to the armor

[latent elbow]

You can put them in "defense only" mod (in the companions gestion panel) where they only attack if they or you are attacked

[eager linden]

Disabled the brain scorcher and got the message “UNISG cease fire with Free Stalkers” I assume that means free stalkers are allies now?

Bandits have kevlars under their drips

[cunning patio]

fmj does fine against low tier banditos

[scarlet orbit]

either way it SHOULD at least register.

[humble saffron]

oh yeah sometimes when i use a short barreled weapon i just get some random ass inaccurate shot

[plucky spade]

HP is bullshit

[humble saffron]

also he should still be seeing a reaction even if the shot is doing no damage

[scarlet orbit]

it' s been fine upto this?

[humble saffron]

so i think the rifle might just be kinda inaccurate

[plucky spade]

HP ammo sucks

[scarlet orbit]

yeah this. There is literally nothign to reg the shot

[cunning patio]

use 5.56 or 5.45 hp only against mutants mate

[humble saffron]

could be some missed change to weapon accuracies or to how weapon accuracy works or something

[plucky spade]

HP expand upon hit
so it barely penetrate armors

[cunning patio]

anything else fmj or ap

[plucky spade]

maybe like real one it behaves like thos

[humble saffron]

are you using your xm177 to snipe

[plucky spade]

you shoot bandit and his armor prevents the penetration

[humble saffron]

i see a spectreDR on it

[scarlet orbit]

mad.. I'll see how it plays out and lwet you guys know.

[humble saffron]

put a suppressor on the rifle to make it more accurate. short barreled rifles in gamma tend to miss at longer ranges (for balance or something idk)

[plucky spade]

try using FMJ or AP against dummies like Bandits and Freedomers

[scarlet orbit]

cheers guys. first time this has happened

[cunning patio]

its gamma it happens

[topaz spire]

Will HP ammo against Sin with no helmet be effective? I know they have resistance anyways, but would AP or FMJ be better?

[scarlet orbit]

So basically never use HP is a good rule? Just use FMJ or AP right?

[robust echo]

im in the miracle machine and a dinamic anomaly is blocking the way, is there a way to delete it? i can't go through

[cunning patio]

against stalkers yes

[opal phoenix]

sometimes i leave hp on and funny pop a no hat gamer

[hybrid karma]

there were talks about hydrashock especially melting sin but tbh by that point you prob have an ammo stockpile,I just throw a lot of 5.56 or 5.45 fmjs at them and that was always my strategy

[opal phoenix]

using fmj on anything but sin feels so dogshit in north

i miss sweet embrace of thy AP ammunition

[hybrid karma]

AP ammo so expensive it makes me forget where I live so I just throw a lot of fmj to all of the problems on north

[small ermine]

Because it's mutant ammo

[small ermine]

Fmj at no point gets "outdated" due to how armor works
It's is valid to just drop 8 fmj at torso and kill someone

[hybrid karma]

Yeah but its not like you have a choice,I feel like ap ammo costs so much its unreal,sure you can craft it but you can actually buy 5.56 fmjs like crazy and craft it cheap af,even if it sucked everyone would still use it

[small ermine]

Pretty much

Ap at best saves you 1 or 2 rounds of fmj

Which is literally nothing

[light raven]

whats the name of the mods that
A have npc claim dead
and B prevent them from looting
Want to kill both of them, I want to be able to be a rat bastard if someone takes so long to loot a dead body

[ashen plover]

Loot claim

[wary aspen]

thinking of doing a cowboy challenge run when i'll be done with my first save.
here i the rules i made for now. If anyone has an idea /mod i could add to spice up the run
loner cordon start
iron man one life
hardest difficulty
medium armor max and only the cloth mask for headgear
can use random stalker as companions but can't use hip (as she's immortal)
weapons allowed :
toz-34 and 66 along with their variants
icatha trench gun
single action army revolver from juan's weapon pack
RSH-12 revolver
and the winchester 1873

[ashen plover]

Nagant revolver as something early game

There are probably also other revolver mods

[wary aspen]

i could add it too yeah

[languid pier]

question, are you gonna listen to big iron while doing all that

[wary aspen]

the red dead soundtrack will probably play during most of it yes

[languid pier]

understandable

[ashen plover]

Could also fiddle with reshade to get the brown western look

[languid pier]

tbh see if you can find a berdan/sharps rifle mod as well

idc they are gonna be quite shite, funny single shot rifles go bonk

[rare bridge]

Been a while since my last playthrough, why is the Miracle machine so hard all of a sudden?

[ashen plover]

I don't think anything changed

[rare bridge]

maybe bad luck, but 3 burers and a extra snorks that come from behind somehow

[ashen plover]

You doing mm round 2?

[languid pier]

idk either but my last run for some reason had sin in there (first deactivation)

[ashen plover]

That has always been wack

[rare bridge]

nope, first deactivation

but I havent played in a solid year

Also feels like burers tank way more

[rugged pebble]

do anyone know why "more meassurment task maps" mod not working at all? i cant change which locations i prefer to get quests (same location, same and near location, etc.) becouse it does not apply. also i still get radiosilence missions from Swamps to Wild territory or something similar (far far away)

[stiff wyvern]

since it was impossible to make sin friendly with mutants on the initial mm spawn, they removed sin and addes burers instead

[cunning patio]

idea: rework the upgrade system so that kits are harder to craft or come but impact weapons more

[near estuary]

but why

[cunning patio]

idk

I said idea

[near estuary]

[cunning patio]

not a "good idea"

pay attention tnext time

[near estuary]

well, an idea has to have some sort of rationale to exist
