Three chimeras?

thank god i dont use ZCP

[viral marsh]

i hate new ks23 anims

firerate got so bad

[ripe lagoon]

pretty sure fire rate hasn't changed

[viral marsh]

after the pump why the gun waits like when im just spamming left click

[ripe lagoon]

because the anim is faster while fire rate is same

[viral marsh]

ohhhh

do u know where ks23 ltx is so i can change it ?

imma try and see if another shotgun uses the same anim so i can check its rpm and copy paste it to ks23

[ripe lagoon]

rpm is in different file
search rpm in mo2 iirc

[viral marsh]

i just found rpm entry in w_ks23.ltx

[ripe lagoon]

it's overwritten

[viral marsh]

by what ?

3dss ?

[ripe lagoon]

the rpm file I mentioned

[hushed pier]

wait a second does using a tent cover you from emission?

[tidal halo]

What to do after disabling the miracle machine? I have over 600k roubles

[viral marsh]

lemme just do some testing , its rpm is 60 , i wonder what happens if i get it to 80 or 90

[hushed pier]

brain scorcher

[tidal halo]

Is there like, a general goal?

[tidal halo]

I thought that would need a D class weapon

My AK 105 Shakal cannot carry my skill issue

[hushed pier]

huh why

a good revolver could be enuff

[tidal halo]

How much ammo do I bring? I remember encountering like 50 monolith troopers at least and they're well armored

[scenic trench]

try it and find out?

[tidal halo]

Not sure if I can afford to buy tens of 5.45 boxes

[mild wing]

always save AP ammo for BS

you don't really need it earlier

[sick yoke]

Why does this exist

Like why not just modify the weapon ltx

[viral marsh]

@ripe lagoon it works

complete anim drastically better now

[ripe lagoon]

most gun configs are not part of gamma repo

[sick yoke]

You mean like how some guns don’t have an associated ltx file?

What’s up with that anyway?

[ripe lagoon]

no, they come from moddb addons

[sick yoke]

You’re going to have to explain it to me like we’re in newbies because I don’t know what that implies

[viral marsh]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1469777930371469496

i did it now

seems alot smoother

[sick yoke]

I just realized you’re not oflin 💀

Misread the name LOL

[ripe lagoon]

most files are downloaded from moddb that grok or the team™ obviously can't edit directly
we can overwrite them in gamma git repo but that should be a last resort, it will cause issues if original mod updates and git files can't be properly deleted

[viral marsh]

i got the ks23 ltx from 3dss file so it dont mess up shi

[ripe lagoon]

yeah it might be higher priority so that works

[viral marsh]

yep

with all the vorkuta version and animation

since ur newest tweak fixed the ks23 reload sounds i made sure to recommend it aswell

[hushed pier]

if you dont know shut up?

[sick yoke]

That’s what it was

Forgot the installer can’t exactly edit the ltx files lol

It’d be possible if the download was just a zip folder or whatever of all the mods though right?

Instead of the whole gamma installer business

[ripe lagoon]

yeah

[wary hinge]

Hey. I'm looking for a specific screenshot of a weather effect in Stalker Gamma. The fog is relatively thick, but the background objects have a red hue to them and it's softer? Idk how else to describe it :/

I looked through screenshots for 20 mins and couldn't find what I was looking for

Nvm, I found what I was looking for ❤️

[cerulean fable]

This must be added to the modpack IMMEDIATELY
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/hideout-cat-for-hideout-furniture-version-10

(not actually making a suggestion I just think it's cute)

[graceful quiver]

Wow a normal cat in the Zone

[white wedge]

Needs a retexture to look like the mangy feral cats

[uncut agate]

You're a king. This shit drove me crazy, I'm going to try out the fix.

[viral marsh]

np

[mild wing]

guess i should be happy it didn't deal damage

[lethal steeple]

bro hit a ramp boost

[steep elm]

[dusk vessel]

the tc is just cursed

[round onyx]

what the fuck is this stash

[mental furnace]

ww2 german army i think

[viral marsh]

yea i had that happen today in yantar

[round onyx]

Do these messages mean anything at all or is it just random noise

[dusk vessel]

isnt it usually when you accept a contract on that person

like stalker elimination or subcontractor

it sometimes says "his days are numbered"

i think this messege is from the same mechanic

[round onyx]

Don't even have any active missions on him rn

[dusk vessel]

huh

mabye then its just random

[uncut agate]

idk what i did, but my guns are not pulling ammo from the ammo pool in my inventory. even when I dump all my ammo on the ground, I can endlessly reload, and unloading the ammo into my inventory just duplicates the rounds. This game man...

[blissful rampart]

Sounds like you've enabled unlimited ammo in debug mode xd

[uncut agate]

debug is off and invictus is active when i open pda

but that sounds right.

[blissful rampart]

Then you're lucky

[uncut agate]

to be clear, if i see invictus as possible achievement in the pda, that means its active?

[blissful rampart]

No.

[uncut agate]

well, good thing the run just started. How can i know for sure invictus is on?

[blissful rampart]

There are few requirements.

[blissful rampart]

Check it via debug, or use Invictus Protector from moddb, that checks if requirements infoportions are still returning "true"

[uncut agate]

ik its dont die twice, dont mess with settings, etc. But is there a way i know for sure its active? this is the second time debug settings have carried over when debug was turned off

[thick sedge]

#📎mods-added-for-next-build message does it move

[uncut agate]

thanks

[blissful rampart]

Install and check

I'd like to know too.

[thick sedge]

true..

[oblique shadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWRrSq5-NY8

[blissful rampart]

[ember lance]

I believe it stays in one spot. Basically animated furniture.

[uncut agate]

wow. unlimited ammo was on, despite not even being in debug mode... awesome

[agile epoch]

I'd like to pose an opinion question:
Do you take a 7.62 AK for the drip and slightly better AP?
Or do you take a 5.45 AK for the great HP and good enough AP?

[uncut agate]

why cant this game just not keep cheats enabled when you turn off debug... seems simple right?

[blissful rampart]

Cheats should shut down too.
You got bugged.

[uncut agate]

7.62 is kinda just better. Both ammo types require small rifle parts to craft anyways

[uncut agate]

this has been a persistent bug. I had an issue with godmode as well

[blissful rampart]

Godmode should disable too :(

[uncut agate]

lucky me

[blissful rampart]

Easy invictus.

[uncut agate]

hopefully should be good now. Going to load up with invictus protector and check

too bad, that was a good start to the run

[blissful rampart]

You think it's over?

[uncut agate]

well im recording it. would be lame to be like "hey guys, so i had unlimited ammo for the first hour of the run, but dont worry, i turned it off!"

even if the run isn't technically void

[blissful rampart]

Are you recording it for yourself or for the public?

[uncut agate]

for my channel

gonna do an edited series, cheeki breeki style in terms of pacing

[blissful rampart]

Done a miniscule amount of cheating, and no-one will know >:)

[uncut agate]

i post battlefield at the moment, want to break into other shooters

[agile epoch]

tru but standard 7.62 requires slightly more gun powder than 5.45 for standard/HP ammo respectively. And while the AP performance of 7.62 is definitely better than 5.45 it leaves the standard round as a do-all (since 7.62 doesn't have an HP variant for some reason) and deals significantly less damage than HP. The 7.62x39 standard round has decent AP for being a standard round but it deals 13 less damage per bullet. That's not insignificant.

[uncut agate]

would feel wrong man. I would have to honest about it, and tbh i rather just restart

i scrapped a great run because i fucking died off camera

[blissful rampart]

Not insignificant = significant.
Why complicating

Next run will be better.

[agile epoch]

Because it's being used as a comparison

[uncut agate]

both are fine, but 7.62 is just better.

kind of depends more on the actual gun though. I'd prefer an m4 protector over AKM

[oblique shadow]

its 5.45 not 556

[agile epoch]

But not when it comes to raw damage. Basically what my internal quandary is grappling with is if the HP performance of 5.45 is worth the less-than-stellar AP performance of 5.45 AP.

[uncut agate]

same stats pretty much.

[oblique shadow]

use wtvr gun u like more both calibers work fine

[agile epoch]

7.62 then

imo I just love 7.62

[oblique shadow]

what gun?

[uncut agate]

i dont think 5.45 hp is that efficient, because you could just craft more fmj if you are really min maxing. using pistol or shotgun ammo for mutant killing is most efficient

[agile epoch]

Right now I have the AK-74M "Venom" and it's a great rifle. But if I ever come across a 7.62x39 AK I was considering if that would be preferred for me over the Venom. Ideally I'd LOVE to find an RD-47/74. Those rifles are my beloved.

[agile epoch]

This is a very good point tbh. Right now I have both a SPAS-12 and a Korth 6" for mutant smacking

[uncut agate]

I think a lot of things are better than the venom if that's your issue

Venom doesn't have great scopes

[agile epoch]

So an AK would be entirely for Stalker smacking

[uncut agate]

Yeah so HP shouldn't even be a consideration

[agile epoch]

It does have a 6x PSO option which I'm currently using. Honestly works incredible.

[uncut agate]

It's fine, but it's fucking huge and don't have variable zoom and the venom doesn't have a laser for canted shooting

But those are my preferences. I like an elcan spectre on a gun with a laser

Or a 7.62x54 sniper, mutant killing weapon, and pistol slot smg

[thick sedge]

spectre

[agile epoch]

tru for the variable zoom but also wrong for LAM and being huge. It's not that large of a profile compared to the other 12x scope AND the Venom does have an LAM so canted shooting is possible.

[thick sedge]

always nice to have a variable scope

canted aiming is ehhhh

[uncut agate]

Canted with laser is great. With RDS, not

I get a lot of mileage out of it

[agile epoch]

I was SO tempted to keep a VSSK recently but I'm doing a no-stash challenge and the VSSK is 7.5 kilo by itself with no scope. It's really hard to maintain an efficient inventory when your sniper weighs twice as much as any other gun.

[uncut agate]

Bruh I'd shoot myself doing that challenge

I'm a loot goblin

[agile epoch]

I am too :<

But I did it for that reason

I wanted to force myself to choose essentials

I had a Mosin until just like 2 days ago when I found a SPAS-12

[uncut agate]

I think hoarding a ton of shit and crafting is one of fav things about gamma

[agile epoch]

Decided that was the time to make the Venom my sniper

[thick sedge]

anything can be a sniper

if this modpack is crazily modular enough the MP412 REX needs an ACOG

[uncut agate]

If have MAS, especially

Which is why I don't have it lol

[agile epoch]

It is. Honestly one of my favorite things. But again that's why I decided to do this challenge. I wanted to break that habit of eternal hoarding. It's been tough and honestly I'm not the greatest at it. I'm still over weight but I have like 32 epi syringes XD

[uncut agate]

I am epi'ed up 24/7 once I get to midgame. Fav drug

Epi and sleeping pills

[agile epoch]

current loadout and weight

I could REALLY downsize if I had less medkits

[thick sedge]

now bow did you get those favorite item marked stars

[uncut agate]

Bro you are the stash

[agile epoch]

But I really don't wanna sell them XD

[uncut agate]

It's in MCM under sorting

Mark + highlight

[thick sedge]

man

[agile epoch]

tbh I prefer the background highlight over the stars but I never changed it

[thick sedge]

holy shit if that's a 1911 then the mini sight placement is so ass

[agile epoch]

It's the Korth 6"
essentially a 1911 but it's also one of the few sidearms that can mount an optic anyway

[uncut agate]

Full auto korth is hilarious

[agile epoch]

I found an MP7 a while back but I decided that would be...unsporting. Seems like cheating to me when other PDWs do not get the same treatment as to be able to be put in pistol slots

[agile epoch]

this was/is my goal

[uncut agate]

Esp w mags

[agile epoch]

I'm just WAITING to get an expert upgrade that can put "da switch" on my boutique German pew pew

irl I'm also just like...biding my time until I can get one irl. I started saving over a year ago for one of those. I've had to take from that savings a few times though to be able to afford other things that I needed.

[uncut agate]

A korth? Kind of expensive

[agile epoch]

I can ALMOST afford the revolver from Korth. The 8 shot Mongoose. But I'm just waiting on life to serve me another shit salad that I have to spend money on to fix.

Normally its just goodwill with the faction the Stalker belongs to. But you can hire short term ones for like 5-10k iirc.

[agile epoch]

ya...the revolver is like 5k
I MIGHT get that, over the 1911 clone. But the 1911 Korth is just majestic.

Just keep saving...even if it's a tenner or a 20 at a time

[marsh bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/robot-ai-china-robot-evil-robot-robot-malfunction-chinese-robot-gif-1847251548666509882

[agile epoch]

To note those short-term hires are rare-ish. I've only seen two of them this playthrough. Both in Duty. But they were like 3-4k for only 5 days (I think?).
The ones that you can hire for money are temporary. The ones you hire through goodwill are technically indefinite.

[marsh bridge]

you need to trust me on this you only need the 3-4 60 round mags for the ak

you do not need to have so many fucking mags oh my god

[blissful ivy]

real footage of a necron with the flayer virus

[agile epoch]

Listen. You cannot tame my inner loot goblin.
That said, I know. But at the same time I've been there when I needed more. 3 mags of 60 AP is fine usually except when you find a LOT of Monos. It's the HP I'm more worried about lol. Before this I had a Mosin so that was my main AP-slinging weapon. The Venom was my do-all but now that I have a SPAS-12 it can replace the HP I use in my AK.

[marsh bridge]

you are a crackhead

[uncut agate]

That's mega money for gun bro

[cerulean fable]

For some insane reason Discord is acting as though the thread for Atmospherics has blocked me and is refusing to let me send messages there. Utterly bizarre situation. I've never interacted with Hippo before either (and I don't think of myself as toxic) so I really don't know what happened lol

[agile epoch]

If I bought it that would be a record for me. Definitely. Most I've ever spent on an actual gun was a Beretta 1301C. That was like 1400.

[agile epoch]

Perhaps. But aren't all Stalkers at one point or another.

[cerulean fable]

Sorry for the ping @green drift but since your thread has apparently decided it hates me, I just wanted to report that Beta 19 currently crashes my game as well (in reference to the other guy who had it crash)

[agile epoch]

Aaaanyway the questions I originally asked have been answered. I am now going to retreat to my bottle of tequila and my cat and then get back into the Zone.

[green drift]

Which guy?

[cerulean fable]

@green drift This guy. Though I selected different options. ~~I've tried systematically disabling each one and trying to launch but it always throws the same error ~~ It appears to be your patch for Soundscape Overhaul, as disabling it fixes the crash.

[agile epoch]

I dunno what bro is wearing but he's lost his textures lol

[hushed pier]

WHY TF AM I HEARING AMBIENT AUDIO OF A CHAIR SQUEAKING WHICH FKN MOD IS THIS

IAM GONNA MASS REPORT WITH 50000 BOT ACCOUNTS

[cerulean fable]

Chill dude. It's part of the soundtrack

[agile epoch]

I've killed him 6 times to try and figure out what he's wearing but it hasn't spawned in his inventory. Idek.

[hushed pier]

WHICH SOUNDTRACK?

[cerulean fable]

Stop screaming you're hurting my ears

G.A.M.M.A. Soundtrack probably?

I forget what song it is

The one that starts with a door creaking sound? The very laid back track with the subtle drum symbol beat?

[hushed pier]

BRUV IT CANT BE SOME A GAMMA SOUNTRACK

THIS IS SOME BICH ASS MOD

[cerulean fable]

Then perish.

[hushed pier]

no you cant dumbass newbie

go to newbie chat

and rot there

[cerulean fable]

jesus you're insufferable lol

[agile epoch]

Dunno. But honestly you might get better help in the support channels. I know there's a few ambient tracks that do have non-musical sounds to them. Tbh I've never heard one I didn't like. Most of the tracks there have been featured from a channel called Cryo Chamber on YT from artists such as Atrium Carceri and Dronny Darko. Tbh most of them are ambient fire. I love them. If you're hearing a chair creaking over and over there might be something else wrong other than the soundtrack.

all good bro

[hushed pier]

some fkn wood creaking soundtrack has been playing for 2 hours and i am livid

just in a loop

probably deleting shader cache will fix it

[cerulean fable]

That will not fix it, shaders are visual

[agile epoch]

Any way you can record a little of it? I'm mostly familiar with the music in the game since I listen to Cryo Chamber on the regular. I might be able to tell you if it's a broken loop for a song. Or if I can't identify it then it might be a definite that something else is wrong other than the soundtrack.
In that same vein, have you tried muting the music? Turning the music volume to 0?

[hushed pier]

its a joke u chimp

[cerulean fable]

[agile epoch]

I know it's not a fix, turning the music volume to 0, but it'll tell us wether it's a music bug or another kind of bug.

[hushed pier]

im gonna download stalker 2 ambience sounds and hopefully that is gonna overwrite it

[agile epoch]

If you no longer hear it when music is to 0 then it's something else, and not the music tracks

[agile epoch]

Fingers crossed for you, bro. I hope that works.

I have 1 more shot of tequila. I will take the shot for you with a prayer.

[oblique shadow]

its a music anomaly

[light echo]

Does armor rebalance update out yet?

[worn holly]

if i place a campfire, he's gonna to stay forever when it's place by me? or disappear when i'm loading an another map something like that???

[celest sparrow]

no

[light echo]

Thank you

[cerulean fable]

@green drift Think I worked out the exact cause of the crash too. You're calling for "collection_far" from thunderbolt_collections.ltx, right? The problem is that collection doesn't exist. There's [collection_close], [collection_distant], [collection_default], [collection_stancia], [collection_surge], and [collection_test] but no distant.

[green drift]

Did you select soundscape overhaul in the install options?

[cerulean fable]

Yep

[green drift]

If so you need to download the mod thats the cause of your crash

look up soundscape overhaul atmospherics edition

[cerulean fable]

Ohh, you think it's because Sound- yeah

It's out of date then huh

[green drift]

Install and place before atmos in load order.

[cerulean fable]

Sorry for the trouble!

[green drift]

No it’s new should be updated but I’m not going to steal his files and no you’re good

[agile epoch]

Not sure if bro is an Eiffel 65 song or perhaps a BMG applicant that couldn't make it musically so tried out the Zone for his fortunes

[cerulean fable]

Last question, should I disable "3- Soundscape Overhaul - Solarint"?

It appears that they both touch almost all the same files

and put Dark Signal in its place

[worn holly]

someone know? please?

[cerulean fable]

Oh it sound stay for good, at least I've never seen mine vanish

[worn holly]

okay thanks

[cerulean fable]

I think there's actually an option in the MCM for it specifically to disappear when you leave the level. It's off by defaullt

[glossy oriole]

Iconic blue guy

[round onyx]

Having the time of my life with melee + spike that doesn't lobotomize you or lose stacks on missing ngl

[green drift]

You dont need to do that

Just make sure nothing overwrites the sounds of soundscape overhaul - atmos edition

[round onyx]

[steep elm]

boutta dig a grave for this dude

[cerulean fable]

Wow I'm not even complaining, Dark Signal's sound choices are so nice

[tidal halo]

Does taking tasks from Duty affect how many tasks Freedom gives? I'm not getting anything from them save for simple fetch quests

[round onyx]

hol up how is this even crafted

[ocean marsh]

am i ready for BS?

[blissful ivy]

get more AP ammo for that smg

also maybe some better artifacts or armor

the mp5sd itself is ok, but it still needs to be fed AP for better results in bs

other than that, good setup i guess

[ocean marsh]

which art would ya recommend

[thick sedge]

this guy has eleven rations bro

he's rich

[blissful ivy]

i would repair the empty you have there, and get a fully repaired meatchunk

you need an artifact melter though

and you need multiple of each artifact

you can craft an empty with that jellyfish you have on your belt

which means you could have a 60% empty, which is already a good upgrade

but the real answer, is to kill some military guys, or mercs, to get a better armor to repair

since you have a medium armor repair kit, judging by the fact you are wearing medium armor

[ocean marsh]

gotcha

ill prob farm some more mercs then up in army

[blissful ivy]

i recommend wild territory

for mercs

and the merc checkpoint in northwest AW

you could MAYBE go to dead city and snipe the mercs

but you would have to shoot like 2 mercs, then run away and hide until they lose aggro

and repeat

[ocean marsh]

i think i saw the smelter from the dude that sold me the phy helmet

[blissful ivy]

yeah he sells it

i was gonna tell you that, but thought you would be able to figure it out lol

[ocean marsh]

im pretty sure i got enough

[blissful ivy]

[thick sedge]

that aw checkpoint might be better

[sharp schooner]

hacking pdas?

[thick sedge]

you should throw nades

[sharp schooner]

defenetely a skill issue though

[blissful ivy]

the aw checkpoint has like 6-8

[sharp schooner]

eat them

[thick sedge]

yes

[blissful ivy]

and WT has easily 5

so thats 13

potentially

[ocean marsh]

kk

[thick sedge]

mercs can carry an RPG tho be careful with that

just master stalkers

[blissful ivy]

and also to get the artifacts you need for protection, upgrade that detector

thats VERY important

buy the crafting books off the technician

and make the bear detector or the grizzly detector if you have enough

[ocean marsh]

i upgraded my pda

but ill do my detec rn

[blissful ivy]

good, the bear detector is the minimum for hunting seriously

grizzly is best, but its only really important once youre past BS

[thick sedge]

you have all the time to prep for bs

also where did you get your MP5SD

so cool..

[blissful ivy]

the checklist for you rn is:

• Get better armor
• Get artifacts (army warehouses, truck cemetery, garbage, yantar, agroprom and dark valley, go through all these maps, doesnt matter what order)
• Get AP ammo for the mp5

the best maps are army w, truck cem and yantar

out of that list

theyre the most important

[ocean marsh]

am I smart for doing Bs first or should I dot mm?

[thick sedge]

mm first duh

but your psy protection is pretty low

thought you already did mm from that helmet

[sharp schooner]

mod now or uhhh im gonna do something

[ocean marsh]

I found the helm off a merc

[thick sedge]

no, the psy prot helmet

[steep elm]

yeah it's a mod

[sharp schooner]

yea give me it now!

[steep elm]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/pda-hacking

[blissful ivy]

you have to do MM

cant skip it

you cant enter radar with MM on

[ocean marsh]

gotcha

[blissful ivy]

mostly mutants in MM

[ocean marsh]

i will go through the checklist and prep alil more

[sharp schooner]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ok

[blissful ivy]

and theres burers there too, remember, use cover and keep them far away

the trick to burers is to shoot them until they pop a shield

then wait for it to end, shoot again, repeat

[ocean marsh]

ahhh ok

[blissful ivy]

and make sure to use cover so they dont use their attacks that can take 40% of your hp in one go

other than that, you should be ok

@cursive wagon

ask him

hum. Quick question, with the new armor rework. Does anyone know whether there has been any talk of armor modfications changing?

worst monolith box loot ive ever seen

should of just sold the box and you would of had more money

[coral viper]

I just noticed with the armor changes, unless I read it wrong, it looks like the Army Nosorog Exo is the best in terms of damage protection now. I don't know how many belt items it can have, which will determine how good it reall is.

[grave solar]

Let's play count the burers, wtf. I do not wish to go down there.

[coral viper]

I see 4

They just wanna be your friend.

[grave solar]

theres a fifth!

Where?

I see him on the far right

Just barely

Bingo

Do you know what the deal is with the underdeveloped white psuedogiants ?

No clue. I just know they are a new mutant added in a previous patch. I've only ran into them a few times, I haven't played gamma in a bit. I occasionally play it when I'm craving a survival fps.

When I start playing it, though, I end up playing through an entire playthrough before touching any other games lol

[grave solar]

I know that feeling, except I've never finished a playthrough because I get burned out before I get to the sarcophagus...maybe this time I will succeed.

[grave pivot]

Kill them all.

Free money

And

I hate mutants

[grave solar]

By their powers combined I suspect I may drop all of my guns, be unable to run and then eat a fireball.

[grave pivot]

The humble UBGL.

[grave solar]

that is a good idea, but I do not have one currently.

did just find expert tools though lets go!

[grave pivot]

Basically, any explosives that can detonate before the Burer moves them away is thier nemesis

[graceful quiver]

Oh shit...

[grave solar]

they're coming out of the goddamn floors, game over man, game over!

[coral viper]

I personally love the grind of GAMMA. I think that's why i enjoy it so much. The slow slog from basic ass weapons to good weapons is nice.

[grave solar]

My problem now is that I have 3 different endgame weapons that I want to use and cant choose xD

[coral viper]

I just use one until i get low on ammo and then swap. It also depends on what my current mission is.

@topaz topaz please reply to me in the bos

[stable trout]

anyone knows the code to the C-con lab?

in the generators

[celest sparrow]

26041986

it won't work if you don't have Mystery of the Zone active

[stable trout]

Damn it

can I do it when I did operation monolith retribution tho?

[celest sparrow]

uhh

[rotund delta]

can i activate the mod just like that or do i need to disable something ? also would u tell me how to drive vehicles pls thx

[stable trout]

I do not wanna end this playtrough still

[celest sparrow]

You can but you would have to kill Kuznetov to recover the documents

first kill Doctor then kill Kuznetov

[stable trout]

oh, do you think that the military will get mad at me when I have good relations with them?

[celest sparrow]

just kill Doctor

[celest sparrow]

!drive

[dawn marten]

@rotund delta

1. F to get in
2. Press 6 (or detector key) to start the engine
3. WASD to drive, Space for handbrake, L for headlights

No, you cannot drive your car to other maps.
Yes, you can spawn them with debug mode (#╭📖faq message if you want to enable it)

Spawn locations of vehicles:#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

[celest sparrow]

Nah

[stable trout]

nice

[topaz topaz]

?

[stable trout]

I hate killing important charecters but sacrifices need to be made

plus he did not reward me for doing the operation monolith retribution

[rotund delta]

can i active mysterys of the zone just like that or do i need to do something ?

[stable trout]

:3

[celest sparrow]

just kill Doctor

[stable trout]

yeah just kill doctor and take the documents and the keys

[rotund delta]

dont need to disable any others mods or something ? thanks

[rotund delta]

is it bugged ? i want to invictus without debug...

[stable trout]

I do not know that, I am sorry

[stable trout]

bugged? what do you mean? no you just kill him and loot him :P

[solar flint]

One day I saw trees in a screenshot and you asked: "What kind of trees are these?" You were told they were from EFT and I would like to know more about them.

[solar flint]

#╟📸screenshots message

[rotund delta]

im looking at a vid on utube from 2023 says the quest is kinda bugged...

[stable trout]

oh

Well I have not done it myself tbf so I do not know. I just know how to start the quest

[rotund delta]

cool good luck lmk how it worked out if u want 🙂

[stable trout]

yeah, I plan on starting it as I mentioned and I will try to let you know

I just want to finally get the D type repair kit XDDDD

[topaz topaz]

Myself and Huh both said numerous times that Sickhowl was the author.. That’s all I know

[topaz topaz]

Plus, if I asked what they were myself, why would I know more about them?

[solar flint]

when you texted him, did he send you the trees? and how much do they cost?

[topaz topaz]

That’s something that you’ll have to discuss with him.. I don’t think disclosing info publicly like that is a good idea

[rotund delta]

so it replaces living legend storyline ? i thaught it was an extra questline maybe...

[stable trout]

well, it makes sense but I will not tell you since spoilers

[rotund delta]

there s 2 versions the one in gamma now and this one Mysteries of the zone quest Tweaked v2. i think the one in gamma is an extra questline

[stable trout]

hm

idk

never did research

[rotund delta]

doesnt disable living legends

[stable trout]

that is actually great

but can I do living legend after the mysteries of the zone?

[rotund delta]

i guess. it says something about HD models tho so if u play with that too we may run into some issues.. but will see

[analog palm]

you do both at once

[stable trout]

oh

[analog palm]

doctor is, funnily enough, not an essential character in any way besides the first meeting at the swamps

[rotund delta]

so you can kill him staright away after his dialogue for living legend

[analog palm]

yah

[rotund delta]

heard about issues with HD models ?

[analog palm]

no idea i dont use hd models

pc strugles enough as is

[rotund delta]

ok thx

[stable trout]

so I can meet him as a part of the living legend and then kill him to start the mysteries of the zone?

yea

Does Anomaly still run like shit

[stable trout]

where can I find the table with the tool spawn chance

[mental furnace]

!tools

[dawn marten]

@stable trout
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies). You get a 50% chance of receiving a yellow stash each time. This resets upon finding a yellow stash - then you need to do 7 more tasks, and look for more stash coordinates afterwards.
⠀

[stable trout]

okay 20 percent

There is no such thing as being too prepared.

[mental furnace]

t3 arts before bs pog

[near estuary]

[mental furnace]

[near estuary]

brown spray

[mental furnace]

[uncut agate]

That armor is sneaky amazing. I got Invictus last year with it.

[near estuary]

yeah I never hear anyone talk about it

it's always either hybrid or ACE

[uncut agate]

T3 arti before BS is crazy though

[near estuary]

I uhh

got a bit carried away with artefact hunting

[uncut agate]

I can never remember if you're able to go north before BS. I seen to remember you could, then couldn't, then could again

[near estuary]

you can't now

for like 2 years now

[uncut agate]

Doesn't only herman sell the arti recipe for t3

[near estuary]

I don't play default GAMMA so that might have something to do with it

[uncut agate]

Ah

Yeah, these days you can't totally cheese stupid resistance before BS. I go when I can get 65% with morphine

Wrenched, empty, pseudo giant pelt, body cooler, and typically a wastelander suit does the trick

[tidal halo]

Is there a Benelli M4?

[valid loom]

M1104

yes

[tidal halo]

How come I've never seen it

[valid loom]

you can find it on stashes or on NATO based factions

[tidal halo]

Is its spawn disabled like the AK-12 Mono?

[valid loom]

no

[tidal halo]

Ahh...

More mercs to kill

[valid loom]

or Freedom

or Clear Sky

[uncut agate]

To be fair, I've never seen a vector either, but I am assured it's in the game lol

[tidal halo]

I want a new shotgun, spas 12 got old after using it for all of the early and mid game

[valid loom]

sometimes Ecologists

[tidal halo]

Vector is praised everywhere but I've never seen it drop

I've got weapons I didn't even know existed before it

[valid loom]

its very very rare

[uncut agate]

The p90 custom is another one that's like pulling teeth to find

[valid loom]

you have to hunt high level Monolith or UNISG

[uncut agate]

I have found exactly one p90 custom ever

[valid loom]

just farm the barrier or limansk missions

[uncut agate]

Sure, but across all my playthroughs I've killed an enormous amount of fellas, get could only get to drop early off a Merc in AW once lol

Elusive af

[valid loom]

I mean yall could get the RAPTR instead

sometimes drop on Duty/Mercs/Monolith

[uncut agate]

Raptr is not even an uncommon drop on comparison

But the the ks12 model is nicer

[valid loom]

just the RNG of the playthrough I suppose

my Loners run was more bountiful in loot and stashes compared to my current Merc run

[uncut agate]

Well, you are killing mercs AKA loot pinatas

Although Merc lost signal is goated

[novel junco]

In a perfect GAMMA build with smoother difficulty curve, you overprepare for CNPP instead of BS

[near estuary]

[valid loom]

Most of everyone not just mercs

[uncut agate]

Tbh I've been having comically good rng in my current loner run as well. First stash basic tools, first eligible yellow in wild territory advanced, next yellow in garbage gunsmithing. All in like 3.5 hours

[mental furnace]

its glowin rocking time

[uncut agate]

Monolith = lame Sin

[mental furnace]

[scenic trench]

pretty sure it can also be in stashes

[scenic trench]

actually want to try out a proto-skat
never seen one
its always sunrise, dooty, whatever...

[near estuary]

what is this new trend of all protoexos being called "proto-skat"

[scenic trench]

... as in the skat9 proto-exos
which are supposed to exist, but

[near estuary]

it's an SSP-99 with an exo frame

I found one actually

but chose the ssp one

cuz belt slots

[scenic trench]

dont think that ever dropped either, yet 🙁

[near estuary]

found like 3 on this playthrough

not the exact same ones

found a CS one

and then another one that I don't remember

[scenic trench]

forgot
does armor trading work with disguises?

[near estuary]

I don't think so

[scenic trench]

mhm

[random grail]

It doee

Doew

Does

[near estuary]

[scenic trench]

there actually an unpowered suit with more than 5 slots?
unsure atm

[mental furnace]

yeah all SSPs

[scenic trench]

o\

[lilac dagger]

Is this with the 10 slot mod?

[uncut agate]

The Merc ACE suit comes to mind as well, with 6. No wonder it's S++ tier.

The loner Voyager can get 6 as well I believe

And maybe Wastelander, but I don't remember off the top of my head

[gritty iris]

i'm sorry but y'all got baited by Huh and Erandis while I was muted

[tidal halo]

What do I get here?

I know the ballistic one is a must, but what else?

I got three slots

[scenic trench]

... what?
pretty sure ace still has 5

[thick sedge]

bait fest from the mod mafia

:coolgers:

[grave pivot]

Aluminum frame just incase you ever face a psysucker, a karlik, or a controller. Titanium grid for carryweight, and idk about the other ones

I know one of em restores your HP

[tidal halo]

Fucking finally

[scenic trench]

nice
gunsmith tools

[tidal halo]

I have like 5 for some reason

Only one medical toolkit

[hushed pier]

we sleepin good

[tidal halo]

Noooo, Benelli animation is GONE :(:(:(

I don't want to see the SPAS 12 animation again, Grok

[valid loom]

Told you youd get one from NATO factions

[tidal halo]

It was actually a yellow stash I found in army warehouses

I honestly completely forgot those get better the higher you go even before you reach red forest

[hushed pier]

bruv the hornet is insane now

the visual recoil is reduced so much

[uncut agate]

Not if you upgrade it

[scenic trench]

debug checks
nope, still caps out at 5

[uncut agate]

Weird. Must have changed. I remember having 6 slots with it when I used it a while ago

[random grail]

It had 6 at 0.93 release

[tidal halo]

If I'm caught in an emission in the middle of truck cemetery, what do I do?

[celest parcel]

there's some containers you can take shelter in, iirc

[tidal halo]

Not on this side

[near estuary]

haven't even gotten to the brainscorcher's walls and I already have the exo book AND the artefact book

[mental furnace]

sell them

[uncut agate]

you can try passing time with playing cards or magazines if you have any, but this is why having antibiotics on you is essential

[tidal halo]

I was too lazy to get them

I was like, every single map has some form of shelter always nearby

Not truck cemetery, no

[uncut agate]

truck cem is what i usually first buy them for

even if a map has cover, id prefer not to have to rush somewhere dangerous

[celest sparrow]

[fringe kayak]

i've never tried to build a hideout ever in gamma, where do you guys suggest setting something up?

[silent scaffold]

Rostok -> Jupiter

I always build something close to a guide so when you need to move your hideout you can just grab all your stuff and use them to travel

[fringe kayak]

im going clear sky, so i guess dead city could be an idea

[silent scaffold]

I mean sure, I would personally take rostok or the freedom base since you have more acces points to different areas of the map.

In dead city you always have to go through yantar or wild territory to go to AW or garbage

[fringe kayak]

yeah, makes sense

i guess i should try hideouts, i think i was missing a big feature of gamma

mine is in Yanov rn, in the corridor next to the mechanics' room.

I wonder if I should start with an smg for stalkers and a pistol for mutants like I usually do or start with a shotgun for mutants and a pistol for stalkers..

[marsh bridge]

im a true millionaire!

[rose plover]

decisions decisions..

[marsh bridge]

shotguns works pretty good on stalkers too

below rostok anyway

[rose plover]

yeah on bandits they're good

basically anything lowly armored

headshots take em out really nice

[marsh bridge]

slugs are like 2k each from butcher as well

(hard/surv)

[rose plover]

yeah butcher always sells some good stuff for real cheap

who's gonna tell him we're not buying slugs to kill mutants

[marsh bridge]

with slugs you could hang around army warehouse and truck cemetery just fine with just a shotgun

[rose plover]

B tier shotgun with slugs can probably take out most enemies with not too much difficulty

[marsh bridge]

pump action shotgun will get you far early game

so will an sks

get yourself that black furniture 7rnd shotgun (i forgot the name) and you'll be using that until you get a saiga or some other similar shotgun to the saiga

benelli is mint

[rose plover]

I kinda wanna go for a military run again but I don't really like going farther north and getting shot by most stalkers there..

[marsh bridge]

if you're using the mags mod and wanna save your mag slots for your other weapons a benelli is very good

[rose plover]

oh well what could possibly go wrong

[marsh bridge]

if you're doing military you're gonna be down south for a good while

[rose plover]

yep

[marsh bridge]

longer than a loner definitely

[rose plover]

they do got some good stuff lab raiding missions though..

too bad I'm a wuss and get scared by labs

I don't remember seeing this thing when I played military back then..
it looks pretty cool so I guess im not gonna use a shotgun

[mental furnace]

[oblique shadow]

thats a diferent icon for the pp19 he might have some mods

Not even capped on cpu and gpu christ almighty what's going on in jupiter

[mental furnace]

kill the white egghead near yanov

[outer ridge]

Exactly. Who equips them? Advanced scientific equipment, western gear, friendly relations with mercs, whose clients are rich westerners. Plus, Lebedev worked on the C-Con team to develop what is essentially mind control on a global scale. It all adds up

[tidal halo]

Jupiter using 1% of its power to fuck anyone who goes there as usual

I'd ask for your specs, but honestly even a 4090 will struggle with that piece of shit

[round onyx]

Which white egghead

[mental furnace]

near yanov

not near bunker

[round onyx]

Specs was going to be my first thought to tone down settings but then I realized I wasn't capped so it's probably scripts and shenanigans

[mental furnace]

he got a marker on map

[tidal halo]

Your CPU will never be capped even if it's the bottleneck

[round onyx]

Near or in?

[mental furnace]

he was here most of time

[tidal halo]

If you're not even reaching 50% usage, there's a 93% chance there's nothing you can do save for using ALAO for Anomaly and Gamma and installing one of the two engine upgrades

[tidal halo]

Wait, you were serious? A single white scientist is killing the FPS at Juptier?

[round onyx]

I have this one at 0.2.5 already so I'll have to get the other too

[tidal halo]

ALAO won't do much, then

I think Juptier is just, fucked in general for some reason

If you manage to get 4 of them at all. 🤡

[radiant sage]

Going to get maybe 50k

[minor radish]

yea lol

[valid crater]

Don't even know if I've seen a single one in my current game, and the kill count is somewhere at 1,300+.

[minor radish]

this "Meet X" fetch task is bullshit

[lethal steeple]

they're not needed

[valid crater]

Well, if it was somewhat common stuff. But they always want some exotic nonsense.

[lethal steeple]

it's leftovers from coc

they were there just to push people to go to places around the game world

[minor radish]

yeah I know, just it'd bother some completionist like me haha

[lethal steeple]

well at the end of it (yes it ends at some point) you'll be sent to the wish granter

and you have to actually pick one of the options for the quest to complete

[glossy drift]

you can cheese them by reloading a save prior to them giving you a quest, so you can change if the quest they give you is bullshit

[minor radish]

oh it's random?

[glossy drift]

yea it is

you can reroll if you hate the mission

[covert nova]

Not always, mind you, but most of the time

[minor radish]

ah alright

[glossy drift]

fairly sure it always is from the "Meet x" missions

[covert nova]

Once I had to talk to the Military for it, wanted me to wipe a CS group. Rerolled like 10 times ,always the same quest. Guess the roster was empty

[near estuary]

yeah it depends on what's on the map

because it's a horrible thing that should not exist

"vegan leather" also known as plastic fake leather
fuck pleather

That stuff falls apart and goes straight to a landfill

Plus, it's not like cows are being killed for leather. It's a byproduct of meat harvesting.

[analog palm]

leather is a natural wonder material and nothing even comes close

[sick yoke]

certainly one of the dev changes of all time

[tidal halo]

Legit, how do you grind Freedom rep?

I barely got 700 points after two (in-game) days of grinding, and I'd need like 1500 to start getting the good stuff and ammo

I just want 7.62x51

[uncut agate]

Tools and fetch tasks. Doing missions one by one will take a while. I'd recommend just buying all the 7.92x57 you can get from traders every day and recrafting it if you don't want to move all your shit to their base and grind it out.

Even then, doing that is still pretty cost efficient in the grand scheme of things.

[tidal halo]

I'm at Rostok, I don't think moving my base there will be worth the hassle

But yeah, sounds about right unfortunately

[uncut agate]

You'll be moving to yanov at some point though?

[tidal halo]

Probably, but I'd rather not move a lot

I'll stay at Rostok until I get expert toolkits at least

[uncut agate]

I typically move like all my shit the yanov once I fully go north

[tidal halo]

I remember when a year or two ago, freedom was actually somewhat viable because you can get more than two quests there a day

[uncut agate]

But you will get rep with then later anyways. Prolly easier to just to recraft ammo for now and do quests for them when convenient

[tidal halo]

Isn't recrafting hilariously inefficient?

[uncut agate]

You still can, but half their quests are typically killing factions friendly to you

[tidal halo]

That's kind of the problem, they got serious beef with Duty

[uncut agate]

Nah. It's like 80% without artificer eagerness or whatever that achievement is

[tidal halo]

Huh, thought it was 60%

No wonder the gunsmith toolkit is considered vital

[uncut agate]

Pretty sure it's 80. It's actually cheaper to recraft 7.92 to 7.62 than to buy 7.62

[tidal halo]

I always got like 3 of those before the advanced kit for some reason

And never used them

[uncut agate]

Also why buying all the ammo butcher sells every time is a good strat

[tidal halo]

Now that I know they're good, I'll unfortunately never get them 🥲

[uncut agate]

Yeah that's the tragedy of gamma

[tidal halo]

HP and FMJ share the same tip, no?

[uncut agate]

Exactly, and butcher sells hp cheaper than FMJ at normal trader

[tidal halo]

I remember starting a meme merc run and the very first stash I got had expert tools in it

It was back when you could enter the first dozen meters or so of red forest and leave quickly with meds

[tidal halo]

AP is still expensive regardless, I'm guessing

It costs over three times more than fmj at traders iirc

[uncut agate]

Oh yeah you're fucked

That's why I prefer 7.62x54r. 7n14 is a an FMJ craft

And it still has 45 pen

And the AP ammo is better anyways lol

[tidal halo]

I'm too scared to check the prices of the bigger AP calibers like 7.62 or god forbid, 12.7

@gusty grail

makes you wanna say "wat"

installation is cancelled for the third time because of curl error, no problem starting over, but this?

oh yea this is 1.8.2

oh cool it finished, yippie

[grave pivot]

Three thousand rounds.

enough for the entire bandit population

PKP my beloved

[near estuary]

icons look weird as shit

love me some ammo icons that look almost exactly the same

[dusk vessel]

23x75 is funny

In the 70s soviets had GSh-23 aircraft guns on all the jets but switched to the GSh-30 and all the 23mm barrels that were leftover got turned into shotguns

So KS-23 was born

[near estuary]

not really
KS-23 was created out of poorly made 23mm cannon barrels that were rejected by QC because they were too thin and wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure of actual 23mm rounds

[dusk vessel]

ah

the gsh23 shoots at 3500 rpm

2 barrels

so yeah they need to withstand a lot of pressure

especially since its 23x115

not 23x75

POV: Bill Kandits smells a lil weed from you

Starting a new playthrough thats melee only with LASS. What faction do ya'll think Goldship would be in?

[valid loom]

Im kinda tempted to use the Tommy gun for MM than the Frasier and the UMP I have on handl

Freedom

[grave pivot]

i see

[valid loom]

You really think she would conform to strict military uniformity?

[grave pivot]

i think she wouldve been bandit or renegade cause of her chaos

[gusty grail]

Yea I just didn't work on the % reporting issue lol. Is the % like that for all downloads or just 3dss? And next time you see curl error, send me a screenshot or error. Maybe I can fix it. Maybe not.

[thick sedge]

only 3dss

[gloomy stirrup]

what is the difference between a sata and an m2 ssd for gamma?

[near estuary]

SATA and M.2 aren't the same category
SATA is an interface, M.2 is a form factor
meaning, M.2 SATA SSDs exist and are quite commonly mistook for M.2 NVMe SSDs which are the actual best ones

as for the difference, the quicker the SSD, the faster the load times
as long as you're not playing on an HDD, you'll be fine

[gloomy stirrup]

ok thx

[wraith mason]

It will load shit faster on like a Gen 4 pcie nvme

[wary wedge]

guys

can someone explain whats going on with anomaly?

explain is the wrong term

recap maybe

[wraith mason]

Like what?

[wary wedge]

Like, is it still in development or just halted, dead or alive

im not constantly following the projects so i dont know whats going on in the stalker modding scene

[wraith mason]

Oh. I don't know shit about that either. I thought you need help with the gameplay or something.

[wary wedge]

lmao nope, i was just curious if 1.6 is still a thing

checking the devblog channel in every 4-5 months hoping it will have a new message

same with ray of hope

last post in 2024 dec. 😭

[grave pivot]

spawn as goldship
get chased by chimera within the first few hours
juke the Chimera in a hallway and win

[cerulean fable]

Am I missing something when it comes to selling artifacts? It seems like a complete and utter waste of time, value-wise. The amount of money I get from risking my life gathering a single artifact is usually FAR below what I'd get for accepting a mission to kill some mutants and stare at the drywall for five minutes before it takes care of itself.

[unkempt glen]

are you selling them as-is?

you gotta repair the stat ones to up their value

[cerulean fable]

Right, but what I'm saying is that's even more time, possibly multiple real hours

And in that time I could've taken multiple irrelevent missions in cordon and the swamp and make the same amount

I just don't get it

The basic power-up artifacts and the more powerful ones you repair, none of them seem worth the effort in selling

[mystic flame]

whats w jaun and grok always fighting lol

[solar chasm]

Afaik doing it right can give you tens of thousands of roubles

But for the most part we don't want people to have endless money cos they picked up 3 shiny rocks in garbage

[burnt helm]

are gun lubricants reworked?

[solar chasm]

Old news but yes

[burnt helm]

I cant just click use on them anymore?

oh

What is the new meta

[solar chasm]

They're no longer repair items

So overall gun condition isn't a thing anymore

And to repair gun parts you need cleaning or repair kits

[burnt helm]

holy

alright then

thank you kind stalker

[solar chasm]

They're just crafting items to make the kits now

[burnt helm]

good to know

[tidal halo]

Artifact hunting is like mutant hunting

It stacks up over time

It's not something you want to do day 1 because you need a good detector, good protection from anomalies, and a lot of time investment

Even then, you'll get like 22k for level 1 artis that are above 90% condition

You shouldn't hunt artifacts for money in the first place, the money should be earned by selling the excess artis you don't need

[midnight heart]

So an army guy tells me to assassinate our ally and then I get executed when I do it?

Hm.

[covert nova]

Hits too close to home, huh?

[tidal halo]

What's the recommended ammo/med supply count/weapon caliber/etc for radar?

[covert nova]

Whatever you're comfortable with tbh. I know that doesn't help, but if you need like a 30 round mag for 1 Stalker, you might need more than if you need one 30 rounder for like 10 Monos.

[tidal halo]

The problem is that I don't know how many monolith I'm gonna run into

[covert nova]

Oh that's easy. About 15-20 outside, maybe 8-10 on the road the rest in their camp, and 25-ish in the lab itself

Plus mutants on the way when entering Radar

[tidal halo]

That's 50 at least

Damn, I wished I was just unlucky the last time I played

[covert nova]

I'd say if you're good, bring like 300 FMJ, 120 AP for a good rifle (5.56 or 5.45), probably like 60 .357 if you have a sidearm for that and a sniper if you don't wanna deal with them from up close (the road is long)

Also a KS-23 shotgun is great for the cramped hallways of the BS

[tidal halo]

What about a 12 gauge shotgun loaded with slugs?

That's about all I have for CQC

[covert nova]

Slugs are kinda mid. Not reliable enough, easier to use your rifle

Just take more ammo then

[tidal halo]

Are mutants common enough to warrant more than 50 shots of 12 gauge?

[covert nova]

Nah. If you stick to the road, you'll run into maybe 2 groups. If you cut through the forest then a lot more.

[tidal halo]

Alright, think I have a good idea of what to do now. Thanks

[covert nova]

Good luck, Stalker

[grave pivot]

@tidal halo bring one thousand rounds of FMJ or AP.

[tidal halo]

I don't think I'll be able to carry anything from the monolith lmfao

[grave pivot]

500 then

Personally id bring as much ammo as i can

I rather have too much than run out in the middle of a fight

[tidal halo]

Medkits?

[grave pivot]

Ehh.. i dont prioritize it since i prioritize cover and stuff

Maybe a dozen of army medkits will do :3

[midnight heart]

Did they remove no laser while ADS mod or is my installation fucked up

[hollow wadi]

3DSS scopes now (mostly) properly line up so the laser is covered even without the mod, or so I've gathered from reading the discussion within the mod thread

Or it came to me in a dream, search for it in https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1306026800480256010 (we can search in-threads now :D)

[foggy pier]

Hey people.
I stopped playing for a while, just made a fresh install... Where is the Dots Marks mod ? I can't see it anymore, was it removed ?

[green shale]

use the mo2 search bar, look for "interaction dot marks", turn it on if you want. has a performance impact

[foggy pier]

Or right. It was just deactivated then. I dunno if I'll ever use it again, but it was kinda nice when properly tuned. Thanks.
