[latent elbow]

The game runs better in the newer update tbh

[gusty cosmos]

again, not for you to decide, some people may have sentimental value to their character, have little time to play or simply don't like restarting

[distant elk]

oh thats beautoful becuase i know its not my pc XD

[gusty cosmos]

it's not a big deal for me to fix a problem on my pc, for my mom it's a huge hassle

[latent elbow]

It will probably run even better on the new update thanks to the new demonized exes

[distant elk]

you mean the version now or the april version?

ive also added siski too

[gusty cosmos]

siski is actually insane

[distant elk]

sadly it makes the game stutter like every 2 seconds for me

sad 🙁

[latent elbow]

I didn't make any judgement or opinion statement actually you do you I dont care tbh
I've seen a lot of people struggling to stay on the same save because they think they're gonna lose smg if they start again for some reason
But again everyone do what they want

[gusty cosmos]

had alot of interesting 3 way battles

[distant elk]

wish i knew what was making the game stutter with it

[gusty cosmos]

xray engine is built with windows vista paint and duct tape, i have a top of the end computer and have stutter fests too

[latent elbow]

April but you still can manually update rn if you want #1467056699683770379
If you play DX11 and wanna do a new save see #1445642460779909211 huge performance improves but it comes with some bugs too (and probably wont be compatible with the next gamma update )

[distant elk]

what bugs tho?

[latent elbow]

!stutter

[dawn marten]

@distant elk
Assuming you are on the latest version of GAMMA, try any one of these at a time (in no particular order) to see if it helps with stutters or microfreezes:

1. Bring your modlist back to default (type !default in #🤖bot-commands )
2. If you have a NVIDIA GPU, you can enable Triple Buffering, and set Low Latency Mode to Ultra in NVIDIA control panel
3. Open Anomaly Launcher via MO2 and tick Prefetch sounds
4. If you have a beefy GPU, use Anomaly (DX11) (no avx)
5. Activate the Turn this on if you stutter mod to alleviate stutters while losing some FPS
6. Consider looking at #╰⚡fps-optimisation for a performance boost, if that channel is locked go here to unlock: #⏩start-confirm
7. In game, go to Settings > Modded Exes > Optimization > Lua Garbage Collector and increase this bit by bit until microstutters/freezes stop. Default value is 300, people seem to find that 750-800 is the sweet spot, this will depend on your hardware

[latent elbow]

Some light bugs, some flashlight flickering bugs and it can mess with some mods (for me it runs fine with very good performance)

Check the #1445642460779909211 thread and pinned messages in it for further information (and back up your original exe if you install the mod !!!)

[blissful ivy]

translate for all the people who dont speak ancient runes?

[distant elk]

ive installed the exes, the top download

hopefully it all works

[near estuary]

"go your own way, stalker"
or maybe just "mind your own business, stalker"

[latent elbow]

Nice, did you see any performance diff ?

For me there was no real fps boost but huuuge stability/stutters improvement

[distant elk]

still stuttering

i think its SISKI tbf

[latent elbow]

Plus 'r__svpscope' 2 in console to enjoy true pip mod

[distant elk]

thats sad

[latent elbow]

It wont magically fix everything tho you still need to properly set your graphics see the stutter command I sent you

And see #╰⚡fps-optimisation too

[distant elk]

thats what ive done

ive done all of that lol

[latent elbow]

Damn then maybe there is nothing else that you can do

[distant elk]

it might just be the mod sadly

i tried it on other modpacks and the same was happening, then id remove it and its gone

[latent elbow]

Then remove that mod i guess

Or

!mouse

[dawn marten]

@latent elbow If you have a hard time aiming when your framerate is low, try reducing your mouse polling rate/report rate/refresh rate to 500 or even 125.

[distant elk]

yeah true but the zone is more alive with it on, anything you can recommend?

lke other mods i mean

like*

[latent elbow]

What was your mod again?

[distant elk]

siski

its to do with making the world more alive

[latent elbow]

I personally use a very few mods past some qol/textures/reshade to avoid performance/compatibility issues

[distant elk]

like mutants having missions, stalkers hunting YOU down ect

[latent elbow]

Those kinds of mods are heavily cpu tied iirc

[distant elk]

rip

i have a ryzen 9 tho so it probably wouldnt be a problem

but the game is coded in sphagetti code

[latent elbow]

Got a 5700X3D

32go of ram minimum for a smooth experience imo

[distant elk]

same ive got that

[latent elbow]

Especially if you have other mods

Maybe it's just your mod that halves your fps

[distant elk]

might get 64

yeah thats shit

[latent elbow]

Maybe Arrival or Redone collection have a better impact on performance but I never tried them

[distant elk]

hopefully he fixes it

[distant elk]

are them the similar to SISKI?

[latent elbow]

Arrival modify anomalies behaviour and add new ones and redone change the spawn of npc, combat logic, visual detection things like that

But at the cost of fps, but maybe less that's why I try to stick as close as possible to "vanilla" gamma to have a smooth and beautiful experience

Hd models and mods like that cost fps too iirc

[distant elk]

send me the link to redone please cant find the mod

[subtle jewel]

Well considering the engine doesn't have a fully functional multi treading, you're still mostly reliant on single core performance. You won't get more performance out of your game unless you use a prefetcher and even then, the game doesn't go over 22gig when the entirety of it is prefetched

[latent elbow]

[distant elk]

idk if the dude is in the discord server but it would be great if he could fix SISKI for Gamma

[latent elbow]

Good luck installing redone collection it looks like a pain in the ass

[latent elbow]

Try to dm him on moddb or where he posts his mod you got nothing to lose

[distant elk]

thank you guys

[distant elk]

thats what you get when modding a game that is 25 years olf

[distant elk]

im doing my part too hahahah

fav film

[latent elbow]

Again that's why for modding gamma my philosophy is fewer is better

[latent elbow]

Imma steal that for later

[keen bronze]

It's the same movie, right?

[distant elk]

https://tenor.com/view/good-bug-dead-bug-bugs-starship-troopers-gif-27594834

[valid loom]

Hmm hard-survivalist really is the only way to go... Im wondering how tf I killed a full exo Legend guy from duty, with a single AP round to the head using a PB pistol. Even if its on Hard-Scavenger settings

[keen bronze]

Could be wrong but the whole thing is made with that preset in my mind

[latent elbow]

If you're a number enjoyer you can try to find it out here :
https://veerserif.pythonanywhere.com/

[valid loom]

Thanks I'll check it out

Im gonna reset my ISG run

[latent elbow]

But I never 1 shotted an exo with a pistol maybe he already taken damage that reduce his armor ?

[valid loom]

Nope

I was barely being sneaky

[latent elbow]

Starting of my merc run was me vs exo man with only pm and a few ap 9x18 = a lot of save reload before killing it

[hollow flicker]

bro I did 2 runs through jupiter underground killing like 15 snorks and got ZERO masks

[latent elbow]

At least you find snorks

[hollow flicker]

do mutants have levels too for drops or wtf

btw there was a chimera there once too lol

[latent elbow]

Snorks mask drop rarely yeah

[subtle jewel]

He might simply have already had been damaged from a previous encounter/engagement vs other stalkers and/or mutants. Npcs dont regenerate their armor values

[latent elbow]

Once I just ran into literally 9 bloodsuckers at the same spot in Jupiter underground

[valid loom]

The other thing Im weirded out is how more constant the green barrel guns or a almost fully functional guns Ive found

[latent elbow]

Maybe just rng luck?

[hollow flicker]

actually insane

if I die on this invictus attempt I am gonna blow myself up irl

[latent elbow]

Spent at least 2h loading the save to brut force it because I somehow managed to get it first time but died before saving

[valid loom]

Perhaps but 5? Barely 2 hours in the run.

[latent elbow]

Yeah that's why I dont do Invictus run

[latent elbow]

Same kind of rng that makes your fun jam 3 times in a row at 100% condition

[valid loom]

[shadow schooner]

you'll be fiiiiiiine

[near estuary]

dies to a random vortex

[latent elbow]

Just prepare yourself for alt-f4 if anything goes wrong

[near estuary]

why even play ironman/invictus if you're going to do that

[latent elbow]

I don't play ironman/Invictus its much simpler

[near estuary]

[valid loom]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-record-cat-gif-21749933

[latent elbow]

[near estuary]

never really understood the hype for either

[valid loom]

Muh challenge

[near estuary]

tried it couple of times

it just kinda makes you play like a pussy

[valid loom]

Dark Souls masochism

[lethal steeple]

not really

depends on you to be honest

[near estuary]

ig

[latent elbow]

I can understand the insane level of dedication to achieve that and the pleasure you can have but I can't reach that level fr

[lethal steeple]

i played invictus because it at least makes it feel like there's stakes

and i played it fast because i used to speedrun the game

[near estuary]

yeah there's stakes, true

[near estuary]

yeah I have zero knowledge on speedrunning so uhh

[lethal steeple]

no knowledge on speedrunning just knowing the game

[frank oxide]

its simple, you just play the game slightly faster than average

[lethal steeple]

if you've sunk hundreds of hours into a simple singleplayer game and still not know shit about it then you should start reading books

[latent elbow]

Most honest stake

[near estuary]

I'm the kinda guy who spends 10 hours in Cordon and Swamps at the start of the game

so uhh

I'll stick to regular

[hollow flicker]

what is the max bullet cap that you can have? 90% ?

[lethal steeple]

then i mean it makes total sense as to why you think playing ironman makes you play like a pussy

[frank oxide]

10 hours is about when the top runners completed the run

[lethal steeple]

you play like a pussy in normal mode

[near estuary]

I am a literature student

[latent elbow]

30h deep run before realising there is a game after bs
We're all the same lol

[latent elbow]

What do you read ?

[latent elbow]

85 iirc ?

[near estuary]

yeah but like
I can do shit like jump into anomalous fields without protection

without risking losing the playthrough

[near estuary]

[lethal steeple]

you also can do that in ironman dawg just learn how to read the screen in front of you

[near estuary]

Unironically, 19th century feminist literature

[lethal steeple]

and pressing 6

[near estuary]

I'm not even fucking kidding you

[near estuary]

I'm comfy where I am

[lethal steeple]

gamma player presses 6 for the first time ingame

[near estuary]

isn't 6 default for detector?

[latent elbow]

Lol I can trust you, believe it or not but I'm currently reading 19th century russian literature (Tolstoy/Dostoyevsky mostly)

[lethal steeple]

true i forgot gamma has inbred default keybinds

thing is using bolts

[near estuary]

man I should read Crime and Punishment

[dusk vessel]

i have bolts on 6

[latent elbow]

Can't brainlessly run into an anomaly field to speedrun artifacts hunting? Literally unplayable

[near estuary]

no like
unironically

[latent elbow]

Read it twice, an amazing book fr even if my favourite is probably the idiot

[near estuary]

I just NEED the ability to shoot up my faction base after a retarded NPC blocks me and then avoid all consequences by pressing F9

I like that about videogames

[latent elbow]

f5-f9 or nothing

[near estuary]

quicksave is the greatest invention in the history of videogames along with the minimap

[latent elbow]

Dunno if it can be considered as a feminist book but Anna Karenina from Tolstoy is a banger too

[near estuary]

I do vaguely remember reading a little bit of that like 7 years ago

was for like an assignment or something

[distant elk]

btw forgot to ask, what are the big changes in the next update?

[latent elbow]

It's the book I am reading rn

[near estuary]

armor rework

BR class will finally matter

[latent elbow]

#📢announcements

Making ap actually useful and stopping the ball res meta will be nice

[distant elk]

gg

is that it tho? any new guns or any new things?

i aint trying to undermine the free work hes doing its great asf

[near estuary]

check this #📎mods-added-for-next-build

it's not a 100% chance that all of them will be added but it'll give you a gist

[distant elk]

can i give a segestion fdf

suggestion?

[near estuary]

#1092834455300866068
make sure to read the pinned message

but tbh, unless your suggestion is already made into a functional mod that can just be dropped into GAMMA, don't bother

[distant elk]

ive asked to add siski, maybe he will know how to fix it...i see alot of people playing with the mod on gamam but for some reason is stutters for me and ive done the !stutters list too

[near estuary]

what does it even do

I keep hearing about it

[distant elk]

makes the zone more alive

[near estuary]

!alife

[dawn marten]

@near estuary You'll need to change the date in this mod: G.A.M.M.A. Alife optimization.

To quickly reach the folder:

1. Open your MO2
2. Search the mod using the "filter" option you can find on the bottom
3. Search the mod, right click on it, "open in Explorer"
4. Go inside here: gamedata/configs/alife.ltx and change the date with 26/10/2018

[near estuary]

that's it

[distant elk]

can you change the stalkers to chase you down?

can you change the mustantsto attack bases?

mutants*

[near estuary]

idk

[distant elk]

its just a cool addition nbut if theres something like that already then thats a good headsup

[near estuary]

stalkers do tend to, you know, follow you and kill you

and I see Snorks at the yantar bunker all the time

[distant elk]

rip

they come around the corner and im like "where do you want me bending over"

@near estuary what do i change here?

[glossy drift]

!hasalife

[dawn marten]

⠀

[distant elk]

hasnolife? gotcha

jk

[glossy drift]

[distant elk]

but there is a better system tho but it stutters and ive went to the !stutters page and nothing has changed whne i use the mod sadly

its called siski

[latent elbow]

At a last resort I can suggest you try to ALAOed your scripts+the anomaly scripts but don't expect much from it
A bit long but not hard to do if you can read basic instructions
https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1isS0Gn9MWrJZ6eSYjh2cFSC8NfPcdWqobB9RdHkAxXI/mobilebasic?pli=1

[distant elk]

also the new atmos video i saw on the announcements tab looks crazy

it literally looks like stalker 2

[shadow schooner]

SISKI is really good but performance wise you either need to use Voldemort or the Modded Exes Multithreading Beta (but I havent tried that with SISKI yet so idk how well it works)

Could also go to the MCM settings on SISKI and change the Performance profile.

[distant elk]

i didnt know there was one

imma try that

[distant elk]

i have high end hardware

i have ryzen9 with 32gbram 4070ti

but either way im not stuttering on performance

ggs

just put it on safe and it works

[near estuary]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1171602505382236231/1424766140504080394/ezgif-824d72354d78bd.gif

[distant elk]

still stuttering shit

[shadow schooner]

I have basically same setup but with no stutters caused by SISKI. 9800X3D/64GB RAM/4070ti Super.

[distant loom]

whats the newest version of toxic air that works for gamma? and does it require any patches?

[distant elk]

whats probably the reason why im stuttering and ive put it on the lowest setting

[shadow schooner]

DM me real quick

[distant elk]

i cant

you gotta add me

ive sent you a FR

[rocky trout]

any here that currently runs or has used the latest version of anomaly subtitles

[worldly stream]

how can i disable those shader and atmospheric things?

[subtle jewel]

!mo2search find the mods by their name and disable them. Clear your shader cache after

[dawn marten]

@worldly stream Use the mod name search bar to find mods in MO2, and use the mod files search bar to find which files are from which mods.⠀

[worldly stream]

yea but if i remember there was 3 things i had to disable or it didnt work well
just i dont remember its names

[subtle jewel]

For Dx9?

[worldly stream]

Searched back
it was these
just not the nvg mod that i like

[gusty cosmos]

man i don't understand HDR how the fuck did i manage to do this

hey!

[steep elm]

Prime of his life

[worldly stream]

how do i turn off the blur thing when i aim with the gun?

[steep elm]

Motion blur? Should be a setting in MCM > SSS settings. There might be motion blur in the default settings too, but I can't recall.

Or

if you're talking about Depth of Field

that's also in the SSS settings.

[worldly stream]

thiis

[steep elm]

Just turn it all off or slide the bars down to 0 if you don't want it

wtf

idk what that is

[worldly stream]

oh its a thing when u aim
somehow u can turn it off
just i dont remember how xd

[steep elm]

I've never seent that before

[worldly stream]

had to turn off a fev effects couse it made my game look bad lol
so thats why it looks like that ig

Ah messed around in the setting

found it

its called depth of field

[sick yoke]

You can parry bullets from the bsaa guards too

[steep elm]

That's based

[steep elm]

Didn't know the depth of field could look that way lol.

[idle ferry]

What faction do you play as?

[idle ferry]

I will get racist

[kind surge]

its deepth of field if you mean the focus on the ironsight , motion blur is when you moving the camera and gets blurry, and bloom is one of the other thing whats makes the contrast so white when you come out of somewhere (like a dark room to an open mid day field)

[kind surge]

oh i see you found it gj

[worldly stream]

yea

[dusk vessel]

Freedom because it lets me start with a automatic glock and a kar98

I dont even like the faction itself lmao

[idle ferry]

Are you a kar98 enjoyer?

Mercs also can start with those guns

[dusk vessel]

Yeah i eventually upgrade it to the mk2

Gets increased base damage and 7 round mags with a very good scope

Falls off late game because the pen on the 7.92x57 ap is a joke

Might go into ltx and fix the pen myself. And increase its price

So laughable that 7.92x57 has less ap than 5.7, a literal pistol round

[dusk vessel]

The automatic glock?

I dont think they do

Its got the 40 round mag

[umbral shadow]

its good at least somewhere kar is balanced and b tier weapon is not good at everything and there is some motivation to actually progress in game

[idle ferry]

oh maybe they dont

i took usp in 45acp and kar98

[idle ferry]

Makes no sense

i had to switch from kar98 forester mk1 to remington magpull pro chambered in 7.62x51

well i like both those guns

[tame trellis]

is there any mod where NPCs do not only claim the bodies but actually also loot them so that when you kill the claimant you get the loot of stalkers that got killed by the guy?

[dusk vessel]

Mk2 is much better than mk1

[dusk vessel]

There is a mod that makes npcs loot

But they will steal your kills too

[tame trellis]

with the GAMMA NPC Loot Claim remade the annoying part is that if some rando stalker kills NPC with a quest item and then moves away some distance you can't get the quest item anymore since it's still on the corpse of the original quest item carrier that's just not available anymore

[idle ferry]

i guess i had no chance to get it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1444357101978783947/1459331243291443324/attachment.gif

[tame trellis]

could you point me to it?

[dusk vessel]

Lvl4 nato traders sell the mk2 kit

[idle ferry]

well i guess im just blind

[scenic trench]

not quite
its either until they die or move out of the area

[idle ferry]

or dushman hides things i like from me

Damn playing as mercs is really fun

[dusk vessel]

Its a upgrade kit for the regular kar98

[idle ferry]

sad thing is shooting Loners

[dusk vessel]

Not the mk1

[idle ferry]

i have on stored

i will take a look next time

[dusk vessel]

It costs like 135k

But its worth it

[tame trellis]

the code says that once they're 25m away from you the corpse is "looted" and not available anymore even if you kill the claimant.

25m and it goes into the looted table

[idle ferry]

Holy smokes i guess i will spend that money on sa58 kit

i really love sa58

White stashes have a chance for basic tools etc?

And yellow are 100% between what you can get correct?

[celest sparrow]

no

[celest sparrow]

!tools

[dawn marten]

@alpine elm
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.

0 relations? Doesnt make them friendly

though I never shot a dutier in my life

Wont impact you

Not really

[waxen plinth]

they aren't, they literally just push me by running into me

[blissful ivy]

Oh no i lost 200 rep

Oh kill them anyways

Dont take disrespect

[waxen plinth]

any faction can do that, but I kinda lost how or why

[blissful ivy]

Nah usually its goodwill based

Iirc

And reputation

[waxen plinth]

meh, I hear a chimera so let them be heroes or something

[waxen plinth]

apparently not

[blissful ivy]

If its super bad rep then friendlies will send them after you iirc

Might be wrong

Are you allowed to hide? lukash said quitting revokes the reward? Ive been just firing back using the mobile home/building thing for active cover, but they love to push it

[waxen plinth]

you can just sit out the entire thing in safe spot. Bar the door with cabinet or something if you need

almost everyone do that

there will be some Freedom reinforcements to grind monolith down. Will take awhile but (most) loot will be yours and free

[gentle grove]

I think its doable, ill try some more before resorting to such... untasteful tactics

so are many places in AW. rad protection pills exist

[waxen plinth]

they aren't

they give best BR, which is kinda meh. They are usually low on belt slots, which hit you harder

[gentle grove]

what suit gives best carry weight to armor ratio then?

[waxen plinth]

ISG proto is reasonably frequent, give lots of weight and 7 slots

so you can fit pretty much whatever on it

[gentle grove]

And it drops from stashes??

[waxen plinth]

yes

[gentle grove]

what color stashes?

[waxen plinth]

didn't see it a lot this playthrough, but could be my luck

[waxen plinth]

any, tier 2 and up

look also for hybrid suit, it's kind of a baseline this patch

ACE or pathfinder is better, but good luck finding that

[gentle grove]

I BEAT IT! didnt even hide!

got a ton of good guns from it too

VERY happy I invested in a metal stash before the fight

[gusty cosmos]

so uh which one of these options is the lua garbage collector

[wanton iris]

I always forget that updates jumbles around mods in MO2

[tall minnow]

guy did grok remove the ak105 swamp thing ? i cant find it in the debug

and there is some gun missing from the debug

[celest sparrow]

no

[junior cradle]

when can we get a MP stalker?? this dayz server be bs

[hybrid isle]

freedomer too high to walk across the base to get his stash

[junior cradle]

thats me. right now

[hybrid isle]

i lost that save

they released who i was

rip most freest yellow stash of my life

wasn't in ironman but i hadn't been there long enough for an autosave and hadn't saved yet

[blissful ivy]

my man we are STILL waiting on stalker survival lmao

been like 2 years

looks awesome

but its just not coming

closed playtest and testing phase, so i guess we are looking at another year i guess

[hybrid isle]

i figured out how to cheat the claimed body systems

you can shake your head left and right while pressing F

[blissful ivy]

i figured out a better way around loot claim, just turn off the mod

[hybrid isle]

too lazy

like that freedomer from earlier

too many door guards in this place

my disguise is too weak for this shit

[junior cradle]

so immersive dawg you told them naw thats mine

[junior cradle]

what? I been surviving for like over a decade? you been dying?

lol just got cockblocked in a dayz stalker server because accent not gud enuff

i will go back to gamma and listen to my cheeki breeki youtube

[blissful ivy]

thats just RPtards

[junior cradle]

yeah, when i called them out on using russian slang in a ukrainian setting they went potato hard

because in their "rules" everyone has to be from an east bloc state

[blissful ivy]

yeah i know, RP sucks ass

never was good

[junior cradle]

almost rather play stalcraft where i know i have russians using hax to headshot me when i got to do pvp stuff lol

[blissful ivy]

dont

XD

the game itself just sucks ass

the gameplay and shit

[junior cradle]

i know i did it the whole way. so good of a concept

then the money and the russin agenda and the hackers lol it got silly idk what it is nowaday. but i doubt it is much different than a year ago

[junior cradle]

bruh like i said i really wanted to get into it for the pvp and the fun

cant get me now mod. i am tag protected

https://klipy.com/gifs/captain-america-xmen-the-animated-series-4

[sick yoke]

they figured out how to monetize more shit

that's about it

[junior cradle]

yeah they monetized every fucking thing imaginable in stalcraft

if an EA exec saw it they would cream their pants

[celest zinc]

Damn i got all the artis for the tier 4 ones but chimera hearts are the bane of my fucking existence lmao

[rapid citrus]

I just finished reorganizing my crap when I realized I could have infinite carry weight with godmode

[thick sedge]

I don't understand the point of making a house inside your base and have people roam around outside of merchants and "free" protection

I set my base on the leftmost large house near merc base and the fireball anomaly

gets assaulted by military as always 💯

[rapid citrus]

if I'm doing base stuff it's brain off time

probably shitposting in vc

[thick sedge]

turn your brain on again!

good job for killing that bandit scum.

[hollow wadi]

The AI slop thumbnail really doesn't sell it

[steady crater]

@near estuary i can finally get rid of this DUMB FREEDOM ARMOR

[near estuary]

cuz he's a fat fucking bastard that runs a band of robbers

[near estuary]

you could have just swapped it at Petrenko, no?

[steady crater]

the freedom armor was better, sadly.

and i didnt wanna have to do BS with 9 ballistic resistance

[near estuary]

true, the guardian of freedom is probably the best medium armor if you don't want to fully rely on artefacts

I'd still probably swap it for RP reasons

[steady crater]

I have a saiga now for Mutants, what do you think i should swap my AEK with for MM and after it? just my MP9? (still like 400 HP rounds for it) and whats gonna be my next gun upgrade?

[near estuary]

AEK is one of the best 545 guns so uhh

[steady crater]

i dont mind if it is 5.56 or smth, im looking for a longer range gun and ive got a repaired SVD (but then no mutant gun). Im concerned its not gonna be economical to use it tho bc it burns more ammo that it earns money rlly.

[novel junco]

Still an amazing mod

[thick sedge]

it will still work

[steep holly]

if it wasn't a russian closed source black box, I'd try it

[steep holly]

What would you reccomend i turn UP in SSS if i got some computing power left over

[rigid stream]

it only at level to being able to grill something on it

[novel junco]

Gamma launcher is also closed source, every other stalker mod thats not Anomaly is closed source, 90% of video game mods are closed source, it doesnt mean it has a virus.

Stop the computer illiterate fearmongering

[rigid stream]

its their own choice to "take risks" but idk

[novel junco]

I wouldnt be typing here if it was a virus

[rigid stream]

people do have that sense of security so.

[near estuary]

it's not the closed source nature itself that is suspicious to me, it's the author's behavior

GAMMA team just wanted to make sure it doesn't do anything sus by looking at the code and then he immediately accused Grok of wanting to steal his shit or whatever and the aoe discord is just a non-stop circlejerk of "GAMMA and Grok bad" even though they still play it

[novel junco]

I dont give a shit
Stalker community as a whole is restarded xdd

[near estuary]

great argument

[steady crater]

@near estuary guess who just found his next goal?

[novel junco]

Not arguing about pointless petty stuff, all i can tell you its safe and works great

Could care less about community drama

[junior delta]

why does the vss switch colors when you put a specific scope on it???

[steep holly]

I believe i did, oh well, currently trying that other engine instead (cant remember the name, its in mods posting). Landed me a solid 40 extra fps

[junior delta]

what magical properties does a nv scope have

[thick sedge]

is there any way that in the future we will have coop gamma, or is that impossible?

[near estuary]

sus engine

probably shouldn't talk about it

[steady crater]

There technically is, although it's a scam and based off stolen code. U need to pay to get instructions to install.

So don't do it.

[steady crater]

For which mod?

if u and a friend have (i forgot which one but its either for SOC or COP) then theres a multiplayer mod for that.

Oh cool, I`ll take a look

[steady crater]

its for CoP its called xrMPE (x-ray Multiplayer Edition)

im pretty sure that ones the good and safe/not stolen one.

[steady crater]

Alr cool.

CONTROLLER PELTS EXIST???

24% PSY RESIST HOLY

thats actually insane

[rigid stream]

overshadowed by others

unless you want to well, jump into those psy fields

[steady crater]

It's just the thought tho, this is also my first time getting one. Is there any way to regain the pelt from the taxidermies u can make?

I want a big sasquach guy in my home

But I wanna get the pelt back

[rigid stream]

sadly no

[steady crater]

Oh well I might just debug one in

Bc I wanna keep pelt but I want balding sasquach

and i just got a 99% psuedogiant pelt from the tunnel one

i never realized how insane the saiga is, i just obliterated it in like two mags

and one grenade throw right

[steady crater]

15% BALLISTIC RESISTANCE??? HELL YEAH

i love the zone.

[steady crater]

2nd time ever getting a pseudogiant pelt, first was a 39%

[rigid stream]

the literally best one to use for "minmaxing" ballistic res

[raven python]

how do i get my companion to carry my stuff? they keep saying it is full

[steady crater]

Being chonky to bullets is what Duty armor is all about, so ill use it.

wait so... i need a VOG-30 to make an M203/VOG25... but i need a M203/VOG25 to make a VOG30? but i can also make a M203 directly into a VOG25... so whats the point of the VOG30 and do i HAVE to loot those grenades or can i get them an alternative way?

[random grail]

You can loot vog30 but the only gun which uses it is rd 9.39

So good luck finding it

|| if you don't want to pay||

[steady crater]

i mean all grenades. (not the throwables)

[random grail]

You can loot them off bodies

[steady crater]

ah... ive had ass luck then bc ive gotten literally 0

[random grail]

If npc uses gun which can attach ubgl

[steady crater]

yeah ive only found one random bandit with the AEK im using now with a GP25 he had.

am i js softlocked orrr

load a pre-killing save I guess?

Yes you’re softlocked

[junior delta]

fuckkk i dont got other quicksaves which means i gotta restart from the START

why isnt he invincible ugh

he literally got stuck inside a BOX

[sick yoke]

You have an autosave on entering an area

Unless you already moved in which case you truly are fucked

[junior delta]

yeah thats what i meant by restarting

[junior delta]

thankfully i have a plethora of saves

how the fuck does this even happen??? he was js out in the open and let me kill him, didnt even notice the name

also why the fuck do the npcs walk trough the boxes and doors i cant open

the consequences of an almost 20 year old game

[raven python]

there a mod to allow us to push past npc?

[scenic trench]

it existed for a short while
no idea what happened to it

hmmm i js got a groza storm and a raptr... i miiight consider switching but i could js stay with my shak12 and kriss vector

also got an m98b and brn180 back in rostok that im not using rn

it costs metal and wood

[alpine elm]

!tools

[dawn marten]

@alpine elm
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.

[wanton iris]

is there a way to slow down how fast artifacts decay? mainly knot

[robust lichen]

I did quick math I wanted to share to see which repair kits are the most cost effective (Costs are based on medium difficulty but should scale with all difficulties, idk)
Emergency armor repair kit is the best bang for your buck cost wise
Behind it is the basic sewing kit beating all of the glues
The 80% glue ("Tur") is more cost effective than all the other glues

In conclusion: Use emergency when you can, basic sewing kit as secondary and keep one 80 glue in case you accidentally forget to repair and it drops below 85
The other sewing kits for busted up gear
And don't craft the emergency armor repair kits since it takes 1 sewing kit to make two, and the sewing kit is less than 2x more efficient

does knot count as an perk based artefact?

[frank oxide]

yep

[junior delta]

js found a unisg nosorog in the rally point with degtyarev.... is it worth to repair it or keep my hybrid

[frank oxide]

if you got that far with your current armor you can comfortably go through the rest of the story with it

[junior delta]

i mean the hybrid is a heavy armor with 5 slots, thats why its good

[wanton iris]

if you got a stash you might as well keep it, its one of if not the best for protection iirc

[junior delta]

i could repair the nosorog fine and dandy, i got a battery in a stash aswell

[wanton iris]

what armor do you got currently

[junior delta]

hybrid armored suit

i need to get more ap these unisgs are tanking alot... either that or i could switch back to shak 12

im js trying out different guns rn

[junior delta]

what does this mean

whats this spreadsheet

i mean ig the stats but i can js holt ctrl, no?

[wanton iris]

shows the differenty resistances

[junior delta]

might aswell repair it and use it

[wanton iris]

it has more belt slots, more overall reistance, and more weight carried

[junior delta]

i do need to grind more roubles to get the servomotor upgrade tho

[wanton iris]

Other then unisg and sin, what other cut or popular made up factions are there?

[near estuary]

last day

or final day

differs in localizations iirc

[wanton iris]

I guess they could be on the side of sin in gamma

[atomic pebble]

there a lot of cut and discarded groups and factions

[wanton iris]

is there a way to slow down degredation of the knot artifact? I thought it fell under perk based artefacts but it still degrades when its set to 0% degredation

It ain't my choice to remove

Or do something about

I'm just kinda stuck with EFP that whose graphics break constantly

[alpine elm]

Yo and every one i kill i'm getting a notification saying i'm killing in cold blood

[frank oxide]

did you shoot him by accident or he got shot by others?

[alpine elm]

I could have hit him on accident, he got jumped by like 6 dogs

but wtf

that was so long ago i do not want to reload my save

there was only 3 of them but what the fk

(ecologists)

[frank oxide]

!olivius / you can make them neutral if needed

[dawn marten]

@alpine elm

Do this to make any NPC friendly towards you:

1. Enable debug following these instructions: #╭📖faq message
2. In-game, aim at NPC and press F7 key
   ||Might help to press G as well to enable God Mode, just don't forget to disable it afterwards||
3. In Execute on Target, click Be friend (goodwill)

[alpine elm]

They are dead already if there are more i might have to do this

playing souls like and i saved ages ago

[alpine elm]

Don't mean to ask too many questions lmao, but can i improve my hides?

And can i combine my grooming kits, i have like 10 at 3%

[frank oxide]

not without custom mods

better knife tier = higher pelt condition ranges

[junior delta]

o my FUCKING GOD, js took the scientist quest off of degtyarev or whoever he is, and the EGGHEAD decided with his UNISG buddies to spawn into a monolith group so now im in a perpetual fail mission unless i reload a previous save 😭

[wanton tendon]

for the western goods mod, when trying to find that backpack for the dude where even is it located in the underground agroprom? i stg ive went through it like 3 times fully

[frank oxide]

iirc its on the other side of the electro tunnel, you can get there by going down the staircase from the outside of the factory in Agroprom or by going around the underground

[wanton tendon]

im gonna be sick

[fossil plinth]

do weapon parts actually matter for companions? im guessing the barrel will still affect how much damage they deal but what about the other parts? do weapons jam for companions?

[frank oxide]

guns in npc hands are treated as "fully repaired" even with missing parts

[wanton tendon]

my god i could kiss you

[frank oxide]

[wanton tendon]

i spent in total

[fossil plinth]

wait even if i straight up take out all of the parts?

[wanton tendon]

7 hours looking for this

[frank oxide]

mhhhm

[fossil plinth]

bruh ive spent like 5 playtroughs repairing the guns i give them

and its not like they were fast playtroughs. im pretty sure i spent like 50+ hours on my last one

[alpine elm]

ty

How could i get more rep with the ecoligists?

I'm at red 71

[wild hatch]

Just farm quests with them they're everywhere.

[twin timber]

Give them a nerd ecologist girlfriend

[waxen plinth]

just found a way to cheese river port in Outskirts

probably would be easiest to do it with that secret room next to anomaly and very goor sniper, but I had DMR so had to suffer

turns out they never come to second floor, just scatter around the building, so you run up there before they wake and have fun

although sinner in exo teleported up at some point, just appeared out of thin air next to northern wall. They surely know their artifacts

[junior delta]

js finished op afterglow, killed the colonel, now do i have rogue and stitch forever orrrr

[wild hatch]

Do youse keep the grooming kit and swiss knife with the multitool
Or do you sell them both? And only use the multitool.

[junior delta]

i didnt get the credits... oh well

[junior delta]

i keep swiss knives and multi tools, grooming kits idc about

usually i js throw them in a stash

[wild hatch]

yeah I keep some for crafting

But they pile up in your inven quickly

might as well just not pick them up

Whatchu reckon?

[junior delta]

also wtf when i selected the option to kill the colonel him and all of his men didnt react to me shooting them??? they were just frozen in place still neutral

[junior delta]

i mean i dont pick grooming kits up at all

i dont even pick swiss knives up mostly, they just appear when i misclick or when i have leftover from crafting

[sick yoke]

Talk to strelok again pretty sure

[junior delta]

yeah no i did, he dissapeared, no credits

i had to do the thing where i put in a command bc strelok didnt give me dialogue after rescuing rogue and stitch, after that talked to the colonel, sided with strelok and went to kill the colonel, they js stood there, didnt even shoot back as i shot them one by one

very weird

[sick yoke]

I guess reload save

[junior delta]

no idc

story is still done

credits dont really matter anyway, it was js weird that the SSU's ai broke

[waxen plinth]

way to lose invictus run number 675: shoot a machinegun burst to annihilate a monolith in close quarters, only for him to transfer to wounded state for 0.01 seconds and drop a grenade

[unkempt elbow]

doing an ironman eco run (cuz im shit) , thinking about repair the SSP 99 Diamond, i still have the starting ISRIT tho, idk if its a good idea to trade all my BR for all the other resistances

i have a Shpere 08 Helmet already which im using so im not worried about getting 1 tapped in the head, but its probably better if i keep the Isrit right?

[celest sparrow]

you can't be 1 tapped to the head anyway

health gate applies to it and there's damage redirection for consecutive shots so you should be fine focusing on rad res for your helmet

between isrit and ssp you're only losing 3% br% which you can easily recover with Artifacts

I would just dismantle the isrit for the fiber

[unkempt elbow]

so i should repair

[celest sparrow]

yeah

[unkempt elbow]

imma see if i have everything to make a Medium rep kit and fix it

[ivory coral]

Is "Amass Equipment for Infiltration" bugged? Cause in Freedom base, I got a bunch of gear for like, a fetch task, but there's no waypoint on who to turn it to

[celest sparrow]

150 5.45 hp and 10 uses of army medkit

[steady crater]

Where should I live in the south if I want a home-like place? I know there's one in zagon that's cool, but I want one for the south when I restart.

[ivory coral]

Oh. It's mispelled

[celest sparrow]

it's not

it's asking for stacks of the item

[celest sparrow]

Meadow has several houses

[unkempt elbow]

i just need Basic sewing kits

yay im a egghead now

[quasi lance]

guh ??

heck is this ?

[pulsar nest]

where do i find faction identification based on distance setting again?

[unkempt elbow]

im not sure..but i think a mod is making it look like this?

because before i got a few mods it used to look clean

[steady crater]

How do i sprint with an exo again?

[unkempt elbow]

you need to upgrade it

should be at the bottom of the list

[steady crater]

I think this might be a bit overkill but eh

u think 1300 rounds of PP is good for the CNPP?

[unkempt elbow]

i ran cnpp with 500

you'll be more than good with 1500 lol

[steady crater]

last time i did it i was spraying with the PKP and still only wasted 600

[unkempt elbow]

fair

[steady crater]

i dont have strelok and such tho, only immortal teamate is reefer.

so i will be basically soloing it once the other 4 ppl i have die.

[unkempt elbow]

immortal or not the AI usually is more of hinderence and/or distraction anyway

for me the AI always got in the way

i had to restart the CNPP raid like 5 times because strelok or someone else ran infront of me and got 1 tapped from the PKP lol

[unkempt elbow]

you still have plenty of ammo for the other guns and in general just, good everything, use cover and nades and you'll have no problem

[steady crater]

i dont even think ill need that, with 65% ballistic res and morphine , i reckon i can just hold down the trigger.

do the normal Duty think and dont stop firing until the mag is empty yk?

i should get painter of the zone

would be very fun.

[unkempt elbow]

Painter of the zone is nice I have it

[unkempt elbow]

Though I have a suspicion that the magnifying scopes are a bit fucked by, I don't have any other mods that would affect scopes, dont think painter does it anyway.

[steady crater]

its time.

[blissful ivy]

you mean the zoom right?

and why its so fuzzy?

[unkempt elbow]

yeah

[blissful ivy]

yeah thats in the 3D scopes settings

in MCM

theres a slider there

make it 0

should be something about zoom

make it 0/0.1

it will be ok

[unkempt elbow]

ah i see

gonna get back on right now and see

[blissful ivy]

it just mimics PiP

i put it on 0.1 or 0.2

at most

otherwise it pixelates like so

[unkempt elbow]

i dont have any mods that should mess with the scopes

so i hope its that

[blissful ivy]

it is that

im almost 100% sure of it

[unkempt elbow]

I've been messing with the settings and nothing works

was looking through these and nothing helped

thought i've noticed that when i launch the game the PIP icon shows up

[blissful ivy]

what mods did you add?

i just need to know

[thick sedge]

suspiciou

[unkempt elbow]

i wrote in #🔨modded-gamma-support and got help to fix it

you'll find the mods i have disabled and enabled there

[unkempt elbow]

i just found a ruby SSP 99 suit

i think i might use that instead of the Diamond

[wanton iris]

I wish gamma started faster, that or I really should move it to a faster drive

[unkempt elbow]

I lost my ecologist ironman run 💔

6h 50m down the drainnnn

[wanton iris]

how do i make it so more stalkers give more tasks?

[steep elm]

Should be in one of the MCM settings iirc

maybe ZCP?

if not there, maybe the gameplay settings via in-game settings

[blissful ivy]

pretty sure its in settings under progression or something

[steep elm]

yea somewhere along those lines

[blissful ivy]

yeah, but it only limits the amount of tasks one guy can give you

which is by default like 3

which i mean, how often is a stalker/leader giving more than 3

unless you take over a day to complete your jobs

in which case i mean yeah

[unkempt elbow]

i wish the ecologist tasks were better :(

or they had the Clear research area tasks more often, be it clearing it from mutants or stalkers

and in general sakharov having more than like...2 tasks

Brain game and then clearing agroprom underground for research (which i think is broken?)

[wanton iris]

yeah sadly

just scrolled past 10 sinners giving the exact same task...

I just want my kill humans tasks :(

[blissful ivy]

yeah the issue here isnt the number of quests

its the faction youre playing

sin/monolith just suck for the most part

[steep elm]

damn
