i wanna know what you mean by saying that my guy, is that so hard to get

[blissful ivy]

it literally just means a childish or immature man, meaning they still have the humor or attitude of a child, the word is straight forward in its meaning

[sacred marlin]

funny how you went from neutral to salty on me

[scenic trench]

are you in- or excluding yourself there?

Custom Next and Old World Mod are going to have new versions of Darkscape

Custom Next has a equal to Darkscape in Cordon
And Old World Mod use Darkscape from Lost Alpha as base (image from LA)

[unkempt elbow]

Oh for fuck sake man. I have 1550 goodwill with them, that should prevent them from shooting me right?

[scenic trench]

that depends on the faction negatives, actually
or at least did the one time playing with dynamic relations

[unkempt elbow]

its at -1077 with Clear sky

[scenic trench]

think as long as your personal faction rep is higher, you should be safe?

[unkempt elbow]

So far Freedom and the mercs have turned on the Ecologists too in my run due to dynamic relations

I hope i'll be fine with them because they're my NATO ammo suppliers.

[scenic trench]

the problem with that is, you as the player have a faction rep of 3.000
but think with DFR, it can go lower than that, so...
you might be cooked

[unkempt elbow]

i'll find out sooner or later, Im post Disabling BS anyway so i have a Gunsmithing kit and all that

[inner basalt]

how does the artifact melting and stuff work?

like how do I get these artifacts to 100% condition?

[sick yoke]

Right click melter and choose the fuse option or whatever

Whatever option opens up the menu that you’d normally get from using armor repair items

Combine dupes of Artis together to increase durability until you get to 99%

[inner basalt]

ah oki ty

does edalon respawn and drop another artifact?

[valid loom]

No

[lethal steeple]

you can kill him before starting living legend and he'll respawn for champion of the monolith

he's there naturally in the world but is despawned when you start the story

[unkempt elbow]

fuck this guy in particular

[mental garden]

Hey guys, looks like all of my mutant killing missions are kinda borked

They just won't complete. I clear every mutant in the area and the mission still says I need to kill mutants in the area

What can I do to fix this issue ?

[topaz charm]

In Cordon?

[mental garden]

Yes and garbarge

Cull hunting worked just fine like one hour ago until it didn't

[topaz charm]

Yeah. I havent had it happen in garbage but its constanbtly happening in Cordon to me

Fuck whats the command hold on

[topaz charm]

!task

[dawn marten]

@mental garden Having problems with a certain task? #╭📖faq message

[topaz charm]

I just have the mod enabled and whenever it happens I just go through those steps

Btw "M" means shift + M. The capital matters

[mental garden]

Aight thx

Ill see if I have the brain capacity to do that tommorow im fried rn imma just hit the bed

Thanks a lot tho

Np, gn

!scopefaq

[dawn marten]

@topaz charm

• Toggle canted sight: V by default (canted sight = the "CQB", secondary or backup sight)

Note: go into Anomaly Settings and rebind "Switch to Under-barrel Launcher" and "Sight Aim Mode Toggle" to change UGL and canted sight toggles, respectively

• Turn on laser: Hold L (or flashlight key)
• Toggle scope mode: = (changes scope illumination or NVG mode on/off, check Mod Config Menu -> Mark Switch for keybind)
• Toggle scope zoom: Scroll wheel, if available (not all scopes have variable zoom, even the same scope on different guns)
  Missing a scope reticle? Try !noscope. Hate how blurry the scope is? Try !noscopezoom

[topaz charm]

It says "Mark Switch" in the MCM menu

But I can't see it?

Ahhhh. "3DSS Mark Switch"
We might want to update that command? I dont know who to suggest that to

[vagrant zephyr]

I haven't got one in forever but I also didn't do anything to fix it lol

actually

remove xr_danger.script from revision, i believe that is what fixed it for me

[inner basalt]

are the clear sky assignments diffrent than the main story?

[steep elm]

Clear Sky offers a main story/task of their own

[valid loom]

Just a few add ons like Last Dawn but similar enough

[rancid spoke]

How can I get more ball artifacts I want to kick chimeras balls

[pallid galleon]

Is this mod worth a damn or should i just stick with whatever GAMMA has?

[inner basalt]

does anyone atually use followers? refuse to use them

[thick sedge]

[pallid galleon]

as much of an answer as any i suppose

[thick sedge]

ok but in seriousness it'll work

[pallid galleon]

Too OP imo

There's a reason people never finish Fanatic's tutorial mission, lol

[inner basalt]

I used them once in living legend because the game forces you too and I hated it so much they kept getting killed and walking infront of my bullets

[thick sedge]

let them stay put lol

[inner basalt]

now I refuse to ever touch a npc

[pallid galleon]

The AI constantly strafing in firefights, only to strafe right in front of your muzzle

[radiant sage]

Not to mention sometimes pushing you out of cover

[inner basalt]

watching npcs fight is funny though because they move so erratically

[rigid stream]

important companions are semi-immortal literally.

[pallid galleon]

might it work with Next-Gen?

[rigid stream]

while regular companions are just.. like any other, dies quite fairly fast

[thick sedge]

the thing is that it'll tank your game

[pallid galleon]

oh aids

[thick sedge]

but if you want raw fps use the modded mt exe by demonized

[pallid galleon]

i thought we all used that anyways

[thick sedge]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1467056699683770379

nah next gen don't work good on my side, free PiP scopes tho

something like when I fast travel 400 meters away terrain becomes black etc.

[pallid galleon]

next-gen has worked for an entire playthrough for me so

[thick sedge]

you should try the mt I linked

and yup new game needed if u ever wanna try an a-life mod

[inner basalt]

ya i was thinking about installing it but then saw new game was needed and was like ugh no thanks maybe next run

[thick sedge]

just transfer your character save lmao

there's a mod for that

[limpid island]

I guess I have to play and be ready for the fucking zone to crash my game any moment

[limpid island]

I'll try this thank you, hopefully it fixes

[timber flower]

I just disabled the long range one

It crashed in my first combat

[limpid island]

you mean drunk's long range combat one?

[timber flower]

Yes

It's the one that was overwriting the danger script

And it was the danger script who crashed my game per the error window

So it seemed like an obvious choice, no crashes after that

[timber flower]

I also wouldn't do that since that script is important for the mod so you will not be getting the mod to work as intended

You can. I just don't recommend it

[limpid island]

I am using these mods

first 2 are the ones I use, long range is just there ig

if you use REDONE combat and REVISION mod then long range is not needed as per the discussion here #1328914692021944401 message

I just hid the xr_danger.script file from both of these mods and now the script in use is from G.A.M.M.A AI Rework

[analog palm]

redone ai hasnt worked all that well in my experience

[mental furnace]

[quick lava]

Will be there barter system implemented in next patch, btw?

[analog palm]

npcs often just

uhhh

like

[mental furnace]

not next patch

[analog palm]

stand around aiming at me without shooting?

[quick lava]

Thanks!

[analog palm]

either that or instantly know where i am and tap my head like ketamine fueled kids

[mental furnace]

or sitting in the same spot for 30 minutes watching all base getting wiped out

[limpid island]

what mod do you recommend in its place then?

GAMMA comes with Stealth Overhaul by bvcx version 2.0.1. Should I install the latest version 2.31 on moddb or not?

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/stealth1

[cunning patio]

stick with the one gamma has

gamma sometimes has specific versions of mods due to either balancing or bugs being introduced by newer versions

[limpid island]

shot at this guy's cover in military checkpoint in cordon from like 72 meters away

literally no reaction

using these mods

is this normal? for you to shoot near any enemy and the npcs to just sit there

they only agro when a bullet hits them

[zealous vessel]

Hi fellas, quick question. Is there a mod for "combat music" or anything of the sort?

either already in the mod pack or 3rd party

[hollow flicker]

did anyone try the new "controversial" A life + mod

[unkempt whale]

Alife plus you mean?

[hollow flicker]

yeah the siski clone or whatever

[unkempt whale]

it requires new game, so I ain't doing that for now

more than likely it's same shit as siski where entire zone is a warzone all of a sudden

[little light]

it doesnt?

[unkempt whale]

mutants hunting stalkers day and night

[little light]

i tried it on my old save that didnt have alife plus and it still worked

[unkempt whale]

they suddenly start loosing to mutants more often

it doesn't work in my game so idk

[hollow flicker]

i would rather prefer that, vanilla gamma is way too predictable and boring

[unkempt whale]

but I don't like siski

it simply turns everything into war zone

[little light]

siski is just gamma warfare without the warfare
alife plus i like a bit more cause everything happens more naturally

[unkempt whale]

it's not about being predictable

[hollow flicker]

i guess I will try it out then

[unkempt whale]

there is nothing natural in the fact everything shooting and attacking each other

[little light]

not for me. everything was js flowing like usual with the sprinkle of more roaming npcs and activities

[hollow flicker]

i just said that I feel its too predictable and boring for ME

[little light]

maybe cause i kind of was more up north? maybe its more of an issue in southern areas

[hollow flicker]

i kinda wish there was more smart terrain added everywhere but oh well

[unkempt whale]

Known issues:
Map markers are a debugging feature (log_level=DEBUG). They lack persistence
and do not update on entity death, despawn, or level transition.

That's huge if it is what I think it is

especially level transition part

[trim wolf]

hum... I assume the database does not contain debug weapons/armor, or have a way to easily identify them?

[frail kestrel]

ok so which chat is for help with the new database website

i would like to see these stas

[hollow flicker]

i dont know ping grok maybe he will help you

[unkempt whale]

last thing I need in my game is desperation to find NPC on a map by quest which is no longer updated

[trim wolf]

don't want to bother him. It might delay the release

[unkempt whale]

this issue makes Alife plus literally unplayable for me

[tacit depot]

interesting , voyager armor will have 6 belt slots , neat was always one of my favs

[hollow flicker]

that is true, bugged quest markers are a recipe for getting frustrated

[tacit depot]

seems belt slots overall have been heavily tuned down or am i reading this wrong?

[frail kestrel]

it would be interesting if you had to track someone the old fashioned way rather than stalking their gps but that requires text input and i dont think thats happening lol

[trim wolf]

i think it is worse, when you got to get an item from a hostile NPC, and when you try to loot him, i says "nothing of interest found"

[hollow flicker]

bold of you to assume gamma players can read

reading comprehension of a toddler

[frail kestrel]

tbf some of them cant write either which doesnt make it easier

[trim wolf]

personally would think it would be cool with some images to some of the quests. For example"kill x guy" so you can just, say, identity the target in one of the towers of the army warehouses and just assasinate him, instead of having to kill the entire base to find the one guy

[hollow flicker]

neat idea, need more quest variety thats for sure

[frail kestrel]

im not sure gamma has enough models for that to workout, theres like at least 3 copies of anyone in any base

aside from named ppl like voronin

[hollow flicker]

and fix the fucking freedom quests being so dogshit, its such a pain getting freedom goodwill

[trim wolf]

weeell true, but if you still have the quest marker, you could verify whether it is him and not say, a guy just standing at the buttom of the tower

[trim wolf]

drug-runs for days

[unkempt whale]

There was a suggestion to update RF receiver missions, but unfortunately it appears it would be too much work to implement any of it.

https://discordapp.com/channels/912320241713958912/1296667142858604616

[trim wolf]

"go 300 meters and pick up this stash in army warehouses... Oh you're back, thanks"

meanwhile, the stash is literally in their base

[unkempt whale]

I did my best to describe how this suppose to work and what are the benefits for gameplay even from design point of view

May be one day when Grok will be working on quests or updating old tasks..

[hollow flicker]

still better then "kill duty at.... Rostok " and then "kill duty at.... Rostok

and if spicy... kill duty at army warehouse woowzers

[hollow flicker]

did you have any issues with quest markers at all with A life plus?

[unkempt whale]

Honestly, tasks and missions are the weakest link in GAMMA experience

[thick sedge]

bro uses alifeplus

[hollow flicker]

trying it out rn yes

[near estuary]

the ballistics and scripting

[thick sedge]

the balls

[unkempt whale]

they may be not great, but good enough

[trim wolf]

I disagree. I think it FEELS like that, because it is the very core of the game experience.

[little light]

no not really

[trim wolf]

you do it SOOOO much because that is the main driver for your income, where you go, what you prep for, etc

[unkempt whale]

missions and tasks and whole design around them is an absolute outdated shit

[little light]

for me it was running fine

[tacit depot]

awww man , ace suit gonna be BIS again sigh.

[near estuary]

there is no design

[thick sedge]

could you put autocomplete on top of that alifeplus mod

[little light]

imagine if tasks dont give money but random items

[unkempt whale]

see

[near estuary]

they'rejust fetch/kill quests

[hollow flicker]

ok cheers, cause there was some "known issues" about it on the moddb page

[thick sedge]

and not have it break a.k.a. game stutter then crash

[unkempt whale]

i am not talking about rewards

[near estuary]

it's kinda difficult to make engaging tasks

[little light]

ambush tasks

[near estuary]

and over time, they will become repetitive and boring anyway

[little light]

making it heavily scripted

[near estuary]

great, more shit to break

[unkempt whale]

@near estuaryI have made a good example how Lost Signal can be reworked into something engaging

hello chat hope all is well : ] it's that time of year again where i redownload stalker gamma and i'm feeling the weapon collector itch, do you guyz have any go-to weapon pack mods to suggest? i've forgotten the names of all the high quality ones by now its been a while

[frail kestrel]

ugp

[hollow flicker]

frostys weapon pack is really good, dont know about the rest

[near estuary]

now make someone implement it

[unkempt whale]

What I want for rework of Lost Signal to fix is the free loot, no threat and no risk high reward design

[glossy vortex]

ah right that was the one i had in the back of my mind i couldnt remember the name

[hollow flicker]

and frostys is pretty balanced too

[glossy vortex]

thank yous

[frail kestrel]

no risk high reward high annoyance

[unkempt whale]

but suggestion is easy to make, where do I find someone to make it real

[near estuary]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion

maybe

but more likely, you'll have to do it yourself

[rigid stream]

literally free on small maps
but annoyance on large ones

[near estuary]

with some advice

[unkempt whale]

from a technical point of view it's not hard to implement for anyone who have experience with modding

[rigid stream]

then ofc the cheese method of body dots make it a fucking joke

[glossy vortex]

i've been on the mmorpg grind the feeling of gathering a buncha different gear that doesnt even have that big of a difference from eachother is the same dopamine hit as doing crack

[near estuary]

how would you even know that

[unkempt whale]

it is literally stated in the suggestion chat

[silent crown]

Anyone, has the Hybrid Suit been nerfed in the new Preview for the Update?

[near estuary]

huh

[silent crown]

Pretty sure it had more ballistic res before

[hollow flicker]

yeah less BR res but still 5 slots which is good

[near estuary]

if I read the thread correctly, anon told you it's possible

that's really not much

[silent crown]

Ah, i see.

Thanks :D

[unkempt whale]

I mean, it's literally the same deal as that quest with last clear sky and ambush from bloodsucker

[hollow flicker]

skat is still 3 slots sadge

[unkempt whale]

same scripts can be used

[near estuary]

use them then

[hollow flicker]

i wish there was more viable heavy armors

[unkempt whale]

I also like the idea of a quest to get backpack from anomaly

[little light]

i mean if you ignore belt slots meta anything is viable

[mental furnace]

oh who i see there

[near estuary]

[unkempt whale]

it's not hard to imagine that some stalker lost his shit when got attacked by mutants, so he threw his backback into anomaly and asked us to retrieve it

[near estuary]

sure

but uhh

[unkempt whale]

also engaging task

I would do it if I knew how 🔧

[little light]

me when i gotta make my dream and ideal gamma world

i migh try learn modding on the side once college starts acting up again

[unkempt whale]

which begs the question

[near estuary]

like, idk what to tell you
Grok doesn't have a team of modders on standby to implement suggestions
the only reliable way to get something new into GAMMA is to make it yourself
#╙🖇mods-making-discussion has some advice/tips on how

[unkempt whale]

there has been years

not a single mod even remotely close to these ideas

[near estuary]

iTheon

and everyone hates it

[unkempt whale]

and these ideas are in no way shape or form groundbreaking

[near estuary]

but that's more of a balance issue

[hollow flicker]

damn merc and cs pathfinder look so good right now

[unkempt whale]

and yet, not a single attemp to make it

[near estuary]

#╓☢stalker-chat message

[unkempt whale]

as if.. it's much harder than I imagine it to be

[near estuary]

it's literally in GAMMA

[unkempt whale]

but who knows

[little light]

bro is just ignoring

[unkempt whale]

Itheon is not that

[near estuary]

oh really

[unkempt whale]

except may be mission with helicopter

[near estuary]

it's not "go investigate this place and fight off whatever caused the shit"

[unkempt whale]

this one I like

@near estuaryit's very poorly balanced in that regard

[near estuary]

yeah that's what I said

because it's balanced for Anomaly

not GAMMA

[unkempt whale]

what I am suggesting is to update what we have already

[near estuary]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/itheon-new-tasks-rebalance

here you go

[unkempt whale]

but I wonder why no one tried to update it in last years

@near estuarythis one is interesting, thanks

[near estuary]

because people don't play GAMMA for interesting sidequests
you play FNV etc. for that shit

GAMMA is about progression

[dull warren]

gamma is about squeezing ur balls for that satisfaction of game progression

[hollow flicker]

gamma is cock and ball torture simulator but you like it type shit

[unkempt whale]

well, I can't say you're wrong with this take

[glossy vortex]

this ak has a different number at the end of it's name... never felt a better dopamine hit

[vocal hornet]

boy do i like it

[unkempt whale]

still sad

[near estuary]

A GAME THAT DOESN'T FAKE SURVIVAL

[dull warren]

saves me so much money from that dominatrix lemme tell u

[dull warren]

that ak that just slightly marginally better with a 45 rounder 🥵

[unkempt whale]

@near estuarythis rebalance affects 3 quests I would never do on Ironman

[glossy vortex]

do you guys reccomend any ai/alife mods? the only ones i know of off the top of my head are re:done and that new siski mod, but i dunno if they're really any good

[near estuary]

I would never do ironman as a whole

[unkempt whale]

*hag won't just "disappear" anymore, instead she will go kaboom *

and that certainly will not make it any easier

[dull warren]

Ironman is an interesting name sake for "even more cbt"

[unkempt whale]

cbt?

[dull warren]

cawk and bawl torture

[unkempt whale]

ah, yea

Ironman for me isn't a torture

[dull warren]

yeah some people really do enjoy the pain

thats why they partake

[unkempt whale]

it's simply the only way for me to play GAMMA and enjoy it

[hollow flicker]

same, ironman is so much more fun if you are from eastern europe

[near estuary]

soulslike is simply superior in a game with so much random bullshit

[little light]

soulslike supremacy

honestly soulslike should be renamed to survival

[dull warren]

souls like gives me an excuse to actually keep all my backups instead of just "cause I can I guess idk"

[little light]

and survival to apocalypse or smth

[glossy vortex]

monolith watching the rookie loner dodge roll out of the way of his shotgun repeatedly

Why is this guy in his underwear.. why is he wearing a giant jar on his head..

[dull warren]

need dark souls roll mechanic

[frail kestrel]

speaking of that soulslike mode (???) is there any way other than f7 to start out with at least any shitty weapon since in actual darksouls you dont go naked after death either

[hollow flicker]

@little light are you still using A life plus? I have no music now for some reason and I NEED my darkwood theme

[frail kestrel]

and its kind of really annoying for an otherwise cool mechanic tbh

[little light]

no i js re installed my gamma after laptop reset

[hollow flicker]

aight ty, having no music is like dealbreaker for me lol

[little light]

well late game especially youll have way more backup gear in case of death

[frail kestrel]

well thats true but you need to get there first

[little light]

theres like a 5% chance you keep items after death

[frail kestrel]

that doesnt help in 95% of cases

[little light]

think theres also a way to make equiped items stay

[frail kestrel]

there might actually i should check settings

[little light]

look around mcm i remember there was

literally just called soulslike

[near estuary]

yeah it's super customizable iirc

[cunning patio]

@near estuary

[frail kestrel]

u were right i can choose stuff like keep weapons, or outfits, makes the early game less annoying and can be turned off later

[wintry sky]

its been a while since I stalked. Do I start a new run now or wait for 0.9.5

[frail kestrel]

thanks

[little light]

me im waiting for update cause i cba to re configure everything rn

[wintry sky]

I guess I could do with some practice before getting into the update

[near estuary]

[clever canyon]

[mental furnace]

[quick lava]

Can you get RF-supply package coordinates post 2000 reputation with certain faction?

[grave solar]

if 0.9.4 saves are compatible, and I cannot find a good answer for this, it wouldn't matter.

[wintry sky]

I would probably want to restart with a major update. But I'll probably do a bit of running around to get some practice in the meantime

[clever canyon]

Last info I have is that 0.9.5 needs a new save

[grave solar]

Wonderful, im extremely pleased to have an answer.

[near estuary]

just start a new run and if the update drops before you finish, hold off on updating

[wintry sky]

I'm a compulsive updater because I want to play with the new toys

[scenic trench]

what was the bot command for scope & kit trader screenshot?

[wintry sky]

Idk, just get NATO gear from NATO traders and wp from wp traders

[near estuary]

check the pins in #╟🔰☢newbies-chat

[twin timber]

Huh

Someone ported spatial anomalies to anomaly 1.5.3

But according to google translate he used chatgpt to do so...

Apparently it still works though

[limpid island]

can the changes from 0.9.5 be directly ported over to a custom modlist copy of 0.9.4?

I don't want to set it up all over again

maybe not directly ported, but just mirrored or copied as much as possible

[frank oxide]

any newly added mods by the update are added to the bottom of custom profiles, you can check modlist.txt on github to know their exact placement then move them yourself accordingly

[twin timber]

You can backup your stuff i believe

[frank oxide]

enable mod > might work

[limpid island]

honestly there are too many changes my mind will explode

someone here said they are running 900 mods, godspeed to them

[frank oxide]

the only "bad" part of this is the inability to tell which mods got disabled

so you gotta go through the changelog

[limpid island]

oh... so I may have to read

well

[plucky aspen]

Great job on the Database mentlegen

[limpid island]

question time for vanilla GAMMA, if you were to shoot NEAR an enemy from ~70ish meters away with an unsilenced gun, whilst being prone/low crouch, will the enemy react to your shot and aim at your direction?

[frank oxide]

on a large amount of guns yes

as even unsuppressed some weapons still have a 75-100m sound detect range which alerts nearby enemy npcs

some guns like integrally suppressed 9x39's have the lowest detection ranges of about 25-30m

[limpid island]

got it

if you had to name the loudest gun what would it be?

[frank oxide]

funny that you'd assume i checked every gun

Desert Eagle is the loudest out of all pistols and gets enemies alerted at like 50m
AK's are 75m

assume that 75m is the average

[limpid island]

is this loudness variable calculated per shot or something

shot 30 kar98k rounds 90 meters away, hitting within 2 meters of the enemy 0 response

burst fire a pkm at 90 meters and they get agitated

[rancid spoke]

everytime i go to truck cem
i encounter 2 military soldats or bandits standing 1 meter away

is there a mod or a way that can remove that?

[near estuary]

not really, it was always a thing in stalker games

[limpid island]

wait, isn't there a mod to change that now

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1466556161770655928

unless you mean something different

this mod basically makes sure when you travel to another map, there aren't just enemies standing near you

!inspect

[dawn marten]

@unkempt whale If you want to manually inspect your gun, you'll need to disable this mod in MO2:
"G.A.M.M.A. Inspect on double tap F disabler"

inb4 "I don't see any animations for this specific gun" - that's because your gun doesn't have animations for that

[stable trout]

Hello guys. The storyline progression guide talks about two paths of the operation afterglow when meeting degtaryev on Yanov. But how do I activate it?

[frank oxide]

by your action or lack there of

you either do what Degtyarov says or you don't

[stable trout]

Yes, but which action? since I have just one dialougue option

[frank oxide]

and the tasks end up having slightly different outcomes

[stable trout]

oh

so how do I don't do what he has told me? just wait long enough for his friend to get killed?

[frank oxide]

delivery tasks fails if the dude dies and a nearby isg squad is heading to their destination

so you just wait

or kill them yourself

[stable trout]

Will I be able to kill Degtaryev once the different ending is chosen? since he has a OP detector and a compass

[frank oxide]

you can kill him regardless, you're always given that choice

if you fail at least two out of three objectives he can force you to go and kill strelok with no way to negotiate about it

well either that or they turn hostile

[stable trout]

if he forces me, does killing Degtaryev not make me kill Strelok?

I suppose so lol

[frank oxide]

well if he's dead then he can't say shit

[stable trout]

yeah

so I just wait now

[sick yoke]

If you want to kill deg just do his tasks

You’ll get to kill him at the end anyway

[stable trout]

yeah Ik

but I have done that version before

I wanna try the other one

[sick yoke]

Fair enough

[stable trout]

but since the guide does not talk about it, I have no idea what to do

[frank oxide]

delivery task - don't do anything or kill the military guy that's meant to receive the package
pendrive from isg spy - wrong dialogue option
jupiter plant docs - don't kill isg and wait for them to find the docs

then story goes the same as before - go to outskirts, save strelok, rogue and stitch and then comes the confrontation

but since you failed the task you won't be given any opportunity to sweet talk strelok, instead he tells you to kill him or you'll be gunned down on the spot

if you agree then strelok turns hostile in the laundromat, you can still kill degtyarev in this section and make strelok neutral

[balmy bear]

any idea if there's gonna be an effort to help convert 0.9.4 saves into 0.9.5?

I'm pretty sure this amount of changes is gonna break a lot of things

[frank oxide]

people were told that savefile compatibility is not a priority so it wasn't a focus

[balmy bear]

i see, i guess that's understandable

[stable trout]

thanks man, so it seems that I should cooperate (since I love Strelok sm)

[frank oxide]

chances are Grok will do something for the few compat issues (like always)

one major issue is that the expanded/fixed maps ai beta FORCES a new game

[balmy bear]

yeah but it's still going to be a mess as always

[frank oxide]

so you have to use the old version (if that will be even kept in mo2) or downgrade with someones install

and then mt branch also at some point wants to add the lua 64bit stuff

which again forces a new game

[balmy bear]

I really didn't think the update will be this fundamental

i assume lua is used for scripting like in neovim?

[sick yoke]

Holy shit

[frank oxide]

yeh

[sick yoke]

Grok finally removing save compat after 1543257743 versions??

[frank oxide]

the next gen engine already added the lua git stuff

and mt branch will follow soon

[balmy bear]

very cool, i really gotta get off my ass and start contributing

[frank oxide]

to some extent, i already heard the "so i gotta make save compat for just the mosin"

[sick yoke]

LOL

[balmy bear]

oh my god

[frank oxide]

but like a month or two ago there was a green light given for no save compat

so idk

like upgrade tree changes to guns happened

which was always a "no-no"

minor changes but still

[balmy bear]

it is what it is, i'll start over when the update drops, gamma's value is in its replayability anyway

[frank oxide]

yeah it should be a standard to start over instead of trying to keep people engaged with their 300 day saves

[balmy bear]

i'm interested in the armor overhaul

[frank oxide]

armor rework changes will be felt significantly from early to late game

[balmy bear]

yeh the hobo phase is the fun part anyway

[frank oxide]

its worth experiencing

[balmy bear]

Im reading the db and liking what i see

I kinda get the idea

[frank oxide]

you'll also get to find a ton of the replaced gun models and whatnot

[frank oxide]

which brings a bit of fresh air into the mix

[balmy bear]

fps or on stalkers? I hope it fixes the pos of the gun on stalkers

[frank oxide]

hand pos of guns needs to be fixed

we're still a month away from release so that shouldn't be hard to do

[slim copper]

so should i wait for the update?

[frank oxide]

do you want to start a save?

[balmy bear]

except duty, duty can keep gripping it like that

[slim copper]

Like is it gonna matter to restart when the update drops i'm js confused on that

[balmy bear]

the duty school of gun training

[frank oxide]

well yes, that's what we were kinda talking about this whole time

tl;dr
no savefile compatibility

you're not forced to update tho

and updating immediately on patch release is bad anyways

[slim copper]

all i needed to hear ty mate

[balmy bear]

I'd do some quick playthroughs like Sin or ISG while waiting for the update

but you do you

[slim copper]

I'm js asking cus like ion wanna start a new save if thats the case

i have to redownload the game either way

so

i'm playing smth else atm

so i'll just wait

[balmy bear]

is it by the end of april or the 1st of april?

[frank oxide]

end of april

basically may

[balmy bear]

ok, well, plenty of time

[slim copper]

I bought some games off this

spring sale

so

plenty to keep me busy

[balmy bear]

have fun

[slim copper]

ty man

[shadow schooner]

I kind assumed no save file compatibility but it’s good to hear it from someone who knows. I get asked about it a lot and I’m just like “I’m guessing you’ll need a new save” but previous GAMMA updates have had a “pre-x.x.x” patch you could apply to keep playing old saves so I never know.

[scenic trench]

does the upgraded veresk not drop anymore?

[frank oxide]

0.9.5 would probably get a similar treatment as previous patches with the compatibility mods if it wasn't for the MT Branch wanting to force new game on everyone, it might be possible that Grok will hold back updating if the LuaJIT 2.1 64 bit version doesn't make it in before 0.9.5 release

and then there's expanded/fixed maps which adds new meadows and breaks compatibility with older saves
minor changes to upgrade trees may also include crashes

it sure is doable but feels like a lot more work compared to the old "okay, lets just revert this change so people don't crash" type of bandaid fix

So as a safe bet and the best way to approach this next update - no savefile compatibility, update when you want to use it and start a new game to avoid issues

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/new-game-enhanced-character-transfer-mod < may help calm those who will feel betrayed by Grok on their 300 day saves

[frank oxide]

pretty sure both veresk variants should drop

[balmy bear]

i recently got it, can confirm

[frank oxide]

day 918949 of wishing for two SR-2M's and for the weapon kit to just upgrade from basic to tacticool

[balmy bear]

everyone keeps gushing over the veresk, I'm getting tempted to actually use it

[frank oxide]

imo its better than the P90 and MP7

accurate, low recoil, heavy hitting

[balmy bear]

even though this is NATO run, how hard would it be to implement a weapon kit? besides designing the look of the item icon, the rest is kind of easy

[balmy bear]

oh wait, no way its a knife slot weapon

[frank oxide]

and if you need to pick either of those then P90 > MP7

[balmy bear]

i never noticed

ok i get it now

anyway, i always feel like pistol is only for running a carbine + shotty

if you have an smg, pistols and light smgs are redundant

[analog palm]

pistols are redundant all around

[frank oxide]

i ran pistol + small rifle gun a few times

it works

and it wasn't no glock hornet either

like an FNX or some shit

or desert eagle

[analog palm]

like, vibes/larp aside, there's nothing you cant handle with rifle + shotgun

[topaz charm]

I vaguely remember something about their being max item limit in Gamma because of engine limitations. Is that true? Or a myth to scare hoarders?

[frank oxide]

!65k

[dawn marten]

@topaz charm Anomaly has a limit of a total of 65535 objects (IDs) in the game. Whenever the game engine generates a new enemy with items, it tags the object ID number to the enemy unit and its items.
The same goes for traders & their items, every time you interact with the trader and visit a new place and kill an enemy and check their loot, you make the game engine generate ID numbers. If that ID number reaches 65535, the game crashes, and you won't be able to play anymore on that same game file, unless you "free" some IDs.
You can lower the amount of used IDs by letting items despawn or by selling/donating them at any trader.

[analog palm]

it's true but you dont need to care

[topaz charm]

Fuck

[frank oxide]

most don't reach that value unless their game is bloated with mods that impact IDs hard

[frank oxide]

you start with about 25k IDs

[topaz charm]

So I just need to get rid of most of my shit?

[frank oxide]

save near a campfire and open console with ~ or type save <name> for manual save
you'll be told how many ids you got

[balmy bear]

shotguns are too slow for what they are there for, mutants

[analog palm]

skill fucking issue

[topaz charm]

Ohhh so its IDs gotcha, thats the myth I got learned

[analog palm]

also they're not just for mutants

[nimble finch]

My humble KS-23:

[balmy bear]

ok, a 45 pistol like the fnx is doable definitely

[topaz charm]

Slugs and AP slugs fucking slap

[analog palm]

slugs rape everything in the south

[topaz charm]

Yes. Omg i love slugs so much

[balmy bear]

it's definitely slower than a vector

[analog palm]

[balmy bear]

or even a fraiser

[analog palm]

vector is ass

cant even oneshot exos

and it shouldnt be in gamma

along with many other cagslop things

[balmy bear]

that i agree with, bring on more half assed guns and less operator bs

more kaltec, less knights armaments lmao

[topaz charm]

Ahh okay. So its not total number of items its item IDs?
How do you keep it lower?
Or is 41k not enough to worry about?

[mental furnace]

!65k

[dawn marten]

[scenic trench]

does the more expensive upgrade kit for the shrimp include a suppressor mount?
doesnt say

[topaz charm]

Thanks

[analog palm]

all of sr1m can mount suppressors last i checked

[scenic trench]

mkay

[balmy bear]

is this thing any good?

wait, wrong, screenshot, this black thing

[analog palm]

just cagslop stuff

not even much more accurate than other 762x39 guns

[balmy bear]

besides the aek, that's the only thing interesting that dropped from barrier

[balmy bear]

yikes

[scenic trench]

what stuff?

[mental furnace]

yeah dissasemble it u got aek

[analog palm]

cagslop

aek is sex though

probably best 545 gun lol

[stable trout]

folk, how do I even enter Jupiter factory? I mean I was there multiple times but like. where is the actual entrance and not the stair climbe since companions are too stupid to climb

[balmy bear]

id say its tied to an94 and aek

[mental furnace]

2nd best 5.45 gun actually

[analog palm]

errrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmm

[mental furnace]

[sick yoke]

Lol svd d tier

(Svu was already d tier pretty sure?)

[analog palm]

they both should at least get proper RoF

cuz they feel like shit to use

[sick yoke]

It’ll be so funny when grok makes the svd d tier with no other changes

[analog palm]

maybe D stood for dogshit all along

[mental furnace]

its getting 100 rpm

[frail kestrel]

whats with all this aek glazing rn, did i miss the meta

[mental furnace]

its not glazing aek just that good

[analog palm]

no it's just actually a good gun

[mental furnace]

[sick yoke]

That one guy who wanted the repair types to be changed from abcd to cbas or whatever when the svd is objectively the worst semi auto sniper but is in type s: 💀

[analog palm]

it just doesnt have all the tactical shit so people ignore it

[mental furnace]

[frail kestrel]

hows the svd even that bad, i remmeber using it to kill isn pretty well

[analog palm]

60rpm

[frail kestrel]

did it get nerfed since 2023

[analog palm]

on semi auto

it's just ass to use

[mental furnace]

its rpm is shittier then bolt action rifles have

[turbid heart]

Me hope performance is better next update

[robust lichen]

hmmm...

[unkempt whale]

how do I ininstall reshade without nuking whole GAMMA and settings

[frank oxide]

Nah i think this gets reverted too

So it’ll be 60RPM D kit again

Meant as a „Good gun that you rely on RNG to get”

[frank oxide]

that’s why ATHI changed it to C tier for like a month or two

And Grok is not happy with that decision so he reverts it

100RPM was most likely also ATHI’s edit based on player feedback

[lethal steeple]

welcome back svt40

[frank oxide]

Because indeed the gun is just slow as fuck

[sick yoke]

Would be a real shame if the svd sucked

[frank oxide]

like i get it
The gun „works” but myself i completely ignore large rifle caliber because i find it unreliable

Small rifle offers more chances to stagger, out-DPS’s most large rifle and is far more accessible

couldn’t be bothered to try bolties or semi-auto when i can just get any 5.56 gun for half the hassle it takes to fix and upkeep from that point

it might be a me issue, but i just genuinely don’t feel a need to use shit like 7.62x51, 7.62x54r

[mental furnace]

[frank oxide]

PP ammo would be the only example that i can agree on and that’s only because of its similarities to small rifle with ease of maintenance, dps and amount of rounds you pull on target

[sick yoke]

There really isn’t

[frank oxide]

Each bullet means stagger chance, stagger makes the enemy basically stunlocked for a second

He can’t do shit and he dies

[sick yoke]

Not counting the pkm/pkp variants there’s 0 full auto options for x54 so all you’re really using x54 for is being able to kill in potentially 1-2 less bullets

Unless you use ap but that’s overkill for the majority of enemies to begin with

And every full auto x51 option except the sr25 have awful recoil so it becomes way harder to compete with 5.56 in full auto

[frank oxide]

galil is pretty controllable

But SA’s and Scar are shit recoil wise

[frank oxide]

But even then i used it only once

My only experiences with large rifle calibers outside of debug are with the early game mosin start, green barrel 7.62x54r once a blue moon, one actual loadout pick with the ACE-52 and PKM

Beyond that i don’t touch that shit for combat with stalkers
Small rifle gets the same job done or i’d argue does it even better

and like in the past maybe i used the R700 here and there

I can’t even remember if i bothered with .338 Lapua at any point in time

[sick yoke]

Like I get that x51 full auto shouldn’t be comfortable to control but given an option between killing in 4 bullets to torso but missing 50% due to recoil or killing in 6 bullets but not missing from recoil I’d take the 6

[frank oxide]

The „1-2 bullet difference” too

Blurs the line even more

[topaz charm]

Is there a bot command or big infographic showing all the calibers and what guns they go in?

Thanks!

[pulsar mountain]

4 adv tools in a row, no gunsmithing

[dull warren]

why i play clear sky right there

[vast summit]

Do I need an egghead suit to complete this study? I can't progress it from here

[random grail]

Do you have few measurement devices in the inventory

[analog palm]

Real, only large calibers I even think about are LMGs

And only because I find them cool as fuck

If you just want to get shit done, intermediate is the way

[vast summit]

Yeah I accepted two missions and already completed one study (haven't turned in the quest yet), I tried both devices but neither wanted to complete when it reached full charge

[random grail]

Well that's interesting

!debug then try to use godmode or !task

[dawn marten]

@random grail How to enable debug mode: #╭📖faq message

[gusty cosmos]

is there a way i can spawn items around the world for me to find later?

besides just going to said place and dropping it myself ingame

[pulsar delta]

There definitely is but the how I dont know
Ask in #╙🖇mods-making-discussion
Someone will probably have an answer

[gusty cosmos]

thanks for the tip

[pulsar delta]

[near estuary]

it has never been so over

[sick yoke]

Athi getting crucified for making the svd actually worth using or something

[frank oxide]

[inner basalt]

is the thistle artifact good bleeding enemies sound really good

[gaunt shuttle]

man i miss the Vs 52, i just started likeing it irl from reading about it

[lethal steeple]

no

bleeding just isn't compatible with gbo's design

[inner basalt]

are any of thr active artifacts good they kinda just seem like a meme

[valid loom]

Ball artifact, stack 5.

[lethal steeple]

all of the perk artefacts are good in a way or another

they're gimmicks at the end of the day

the thistle just has no place in gamma because of gbo's design

the seraphim is mostly broken as in it doesn't work

the cell is fantastic as it's a 15% multiplicative bullet damage reduction, which means it can go above the cap, and which also means it's better than a t4 plate

moon is fantastic to stop buying sleeping pills

list goes on all of them have an use, some are clearly weaker, some are clearly stronger

[valid loom]

Dont forget the Spike.

[lethal steeple]

i don't consider the spike to be good in the pba version gamma uses because it's from before the bullet impact callbacks were invente

d

so it relies on weird logic to see if you missed or not

which leads to death being rng while using it

you could have a 100% hit rate and still die after a successful hit because the spike didn't catch on

[strange edge]

How do i get eastern rounds when playing as merc?

Besides looting lol

[lethal steeple]

bandits

loners after you disable the scorcher

[strange edge]

I can interact with their merchants? I tried freedom but the dude only sells to his ppl i think

I dont go over to the bandits that often lol

[mental garden]

What weapons are compatible with the Special Upgarde Kit ?

[mental garden]

And whis is that one damn thermal scope so expensive. 300000k roubles is EXPENSIVE

[blissful ivy]

the eots?

it is NOT 300000k roubles pal

[mental garden]

It is ?

The 1-10x Thermal scope

[blissful ivy]

its not 300000000 roubles

its 300000

[mental garden]

That's...what I typed...?

[blissful ivy]

300 million?

[mental garden]

What...?

No

[blissful ivy]

you typed 300 million

300k

is the correct way to say it

anyways,

thats not that much

for a thermal

thats reasonable

[mental garden]

Mb

[mental garden]

Is it really ?

[blissful ivy]

yes it is

i end up with like 400k by the time im up north

so by the time i really use it, ive got more than enough

usually im walking around with 200k+

[mental garden]

Thermals dont seem like that much of an improvement to be worth 300K

[blissful ivy]

oh, it is

you see everyone

it basically invalidates bushes, like sure you cant see them fully

but you can tell theyre there

[mental garden]

I mean stalkers usually reveal themselves by shooting at you

Ah bushes are good tho

[blissful ivy]

but what if you could see them across the map

know where they are while theyre still out of aggro range

[mental garden]

A sniper's dream

[blissful ivy]

also the dream of anyone playing ironman difficulty

[mental garden]

Only viable on certain maps

[blissful ivy]

all maps really, besides underground maps

[mental garden]

I do not hate myself that much thank you sir

[blissful ivy]

and some select small ones

like meadow

tbh its not even hard

invictus isnt even hard

its just the same as normal gameplay you just have to try harder not to get shot

and you cant rush things

thats it

or just use artifacts properly

if you use the right ones you can be 90% resistant to firearms

[mental garden]

Since they fixed the mutant glitch where they would just fuse with you it does seem more fair

[blissful ivy]

what?

i dont remember that

[mental garden]

Aroung last year id say when I played

Pseudodogs and cats would just get inside of me

[mental garden]

And attack me at mach 10

[blissful ivy]

ive been playing for a year and a half or so, never had that

[mental garden]

Insta killing me

[blissful ivy]

yeah so idk, just dont let them touch you

thats the goal

thats what i always did

just kill them first

[valid loom]

How was your rupture resistance?

[mental garden]

https://klipy.com/gifs/brain-meme-you-did-not-have-to-cut-me-off

[blissful ivy]

inb4 5%

[mental garden]

Nothing I was still a newbie at the time

[blissful ivy]

oh so nothing out of the usual

[valid loom]

[blissful ivy]

you just found out that being mauled to death kills you

[mental garden]

Lmao

[blissful ivy]

thats not a bug, thats a feature of being torn apart by dogs

[mental garden]

Yea but this was really a glitch like they were ONE with me

[blissful ivy]

yeah they just do that

[mental garden]

Nah I swear they would just get up and bite me 15 times in a split second and never run off

[blissful ivy]

its because theyre fast, and you dont move fast when being attacked, so your only option is die, or kill them

[valid loom]

Always move and if you can abuse the high ground when it comes to packs of smaller mutants like atop of a truck.

[blissful ivy]

it takes like 3 bites to kill you.

with dogs

with newbie armor

and theres never 1 dog

always 2+

[mental garden]

Pseudodog

[blissful ivy]

oh, make it 2

[mental garden]

Didnt happen to me with regular dogs

[blissful ivy]

even more likely to feel instant

oh, ok them, but pdogs hurt like a bitch when you have leather jacket

or sunrise

or the faction equivalent

[valid loom]

Bro has never experienced being assaulted by 2 psy-dogs and a psysucker yet.

[blissful ivy]

also that ^

[mental garden]

I did it's like my third playtrhough

Ive been to the north and maxed out freedom there

[blissful ivy]

you aint seen nothing until youre having your ass eaten out by a giant, a controller, 2 snorks and a burer for good measure

[valid loom]

Fr fr

[mental garden]

Nah easy

[blissful ivy]

that shit is so unfair

FUCK YOU MEAN EASY

[valid loom]

Outskirts, what a fun place

[mental garden]

I just do the giant killing mission of hunter

One ginormous giants

[blissful ivy]

thats just giants

those are a joke alone

[mental garden]

Plus two regular giants on top

[valid loom]

Big Game?

[blissful ivy]

just move away lol

[mental garden]

Ye

[blissful ivy]

but the controller has no quarrels with range

his ass can kill you at 200 meters+

[mental garden]

They move faster than you and their shockwave has SO MUCH range

[blissful ivy]

again, read the whole list, not just giant

[mental garden]

man I DID

[blissful ivy]

dodge the stomp, 2 snorks, and manage a controller while a burer hurls shit at you

youre not saying easy

[mental garden]

Burers and snorks are easy

But the controller is annoying af

[blissful ivy]

have you tried ALL AT ONCE???????

like wtf bro

ALL

not some

not just one

ALL

that shit happened to me

[valid loom]

The piss yellow screen of having 4 controllers and a chimera greeting you as you exit the lab.

[mental garden]

No shit ??? I gathered

[blissful ivy]

only thing missing was a chimera and a sucker

[blissful ivy]

then WHY DID YOU SAY EASY

[mental garden]

https://klipy.com/gifs/dog-accepting-fate

[mental garden]

I GATHERED YOU EXPIRIENCED IT

[blissful ivy]

THEN DONT SAY EASY ABOUT IT, IT WASNT

i lived tho

fuckers couldnt take me down

[mental garden]

NEVER SAID IT WAS

[blissful ivy]

#╓☢stalker-chat message RAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

YOU DID

[mental garden]

just said the burer and snorks are easy to deal with
