only one to trigger was on_before_hit

yep, actor_on_hit_callback does not trigger on getting hit. now it is way above my paygrade to find out why exactly that happens

/// Reducing buckshots damage /// Actor got hit - Grok damage balancer 0.35767185455768 + 0 + 0 + 0 ammo pen = 0.03 armor class = 0.64579642117023 ammo didn't penetrate armor, damage reduction applied Hit by 0.057696748524904 FireWound damages part hit = head total protection = 0.9 damage to actor = 0.0046157398819923 Helmet condition dmg = 0.00032310179173946 /// Reducing buckshots damage /// Actor got hit - Grok damage balancer 0 + 0.36651304433033 + 0 + 0 ammo pen = 0.03 armor class = 0.73203011602163 plates armor class = 0 total armor class = 0.73203011602163 ammo didn't penetrate armor, damage reduction applied Hit by 0.057698290795088 FireWound damages part hit = leftarm total protection = 0.9 damage to actor = 0.0049043547175825 Armor condition dmg = 0.00034330483023077
segment from the console
I have print functions to print out if callback gets triggered. it doesnt

All i see is from damage balancer, which works on before hit

Here is same thing but with on_before_hit
! actor got hit in bone 20 Hit by 0.7716423869133 damage ! actor got hit in leftarm, random? false, damagescale: 2.5 ! actor got hit in bone 19 Hit by 0.77167803049088 damage ! actor got hit in head, random? false, damagescale: 2.5 ! actor got hit in bone 15 Hit by 0.77170705795288 damage ! actor got hit in head, random? false, damagescale: 2.5 /// Reducing KS23 damage /// Actor got hit - Grok damage balancer 0.35983262062516 + 0 + 0 + 0 ammo pen = 0.06 armor class = 0.64969780445099 ammo didn't penetrate armor, damage reduction applied Hit by 0.080257527530193 FireWound damages part hit = head total protection = 0.9 damage to actor = 0.0064206022024155 Helmet condition dmg = 0.00044944215416908 ! actor got hit in bone 15 Hit by 0.77168381214142 damage ! actor got hit in head, random? false, damagescale: 2.5 /// Reducing KS23 damage /// Actor got hit - Grok damage balancer 0.35967082978167 + 0 + 0 + 0 ammo pen = 0.06 armor class = 0.64940568208694 ammo didn't penetrate armor, damage reduction applied Hit by 0.08025511354208 FireWound damages part hit = head total protection = 0.9 damage to actor = 0.0064204090833664 Helmet condition dmg = 0.00044942863583565

So with callback not working it never grabs the bone_id. Because of that damage is always random

I dont have entirely vanilla gamma to check, but maybe someone does

I tested without my mod, with script coming from gamma medications balance. It also does not work there

As vanilla as i can go. So up to someone else to test. i will fix it for myself

[thorn stratus]

You decide what is shown and when, not the mod. By tweaking the dynahud mcm settings and it has enough configurable parameters that ideally it should satisfy the majority of people preferences in regards to what they want from an immersive hud. That was my goal at the least. You can even make all the hud components static if you set the params accordingly.

Why there are two health bars?
The main hud is implemented by the bars on the bottom left. That is the primary hud component that gives you the status of your vitals, including the red bar (Health).
The BHS hud (when is set dynamic in mcm) is an event based HUD. You are supposed to go about your business with that thing hidden, and it will only show up when you receive injuries and when it does you could hide it (dismiss or heal injury). So why is reactive to HP? Main reason is consistency with the rest of the hud, also I would never though somebody would complain about it, but if I did not make it this way then there would be another one complaining that the BHS does not dynamically reflect your health as well so it was always a no win situation for me.

There is also the option to disable Dynamic BHS, which means it should support the BHS legacy and so having the BHS hud to be reactive to main health was also a requirement.
There is the case where somebody can configure (again in mcm settings) the main hud to be completely hidden which means they only have the BHS hud available so having the health be displayed there was also a requirement.

You don't need to like my mod, that is fine, I just wanted to clarify some points for you

[lilac compass]

The position the weapon is in when you run I want to know how to fix it

[fossil birch]

Appreciate the extra info, I may just need to tinker around the settings a bit more to see if I can work it a way I like. I can def see how much hard work went into it though and it's insane for what can be done on a practically 16 year old game engine

[undone lily]

pushed something that should work. Needs testing

[versed wave]

where can I a get full list of ui actor portraits, that is used for a player?

[slow bolt]

What was it?

[thorn stratus]

Fair enough. Most people assume that the way the mod ships is the only way it works ignoring the fact that in the mcm menu they can configure every aspect of the hud. You don't even need to use the custom skin, with the inherit option you can import the GAMMA hud and a couple of more thirty party huds

[opaque night]

Can someone point to what I'm doing wrong with a script I'm working on.

The unedited script works without an issue and looks like this:
local underground_sounds = { [1] = {--first phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_1_glass", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_1_walking", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc }, [2] = {--second phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_2_reload", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_2_hurt", ["length"] = 11000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc }, [3] = {--third phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_3_scream", ["length"] = 93000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_3_heart", ["length"] = 33000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc } }

I tried editing the version to the below example and it just refuses to play any audio anymore...

local underground_sounds = { [1] = {--first phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_1_glass", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_1_walking", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc }, [2] = {--second phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_2_reload", ["length"] = 2000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_2_hurt", ["length"] = 11000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc }, [3] = {--third phase [1] = {--first soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_3_scream", ["length"] = 93000, ["volume"] = 100 }, [2] = {--second soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_3_heart", ["length"] = 33000, ["volume"] = 100 } [3] = {--third soundclip ["file"] = "sanity\\l_3_whispers", ["length"] = 33000, ["volume"] = 100 } --etc } }

[slow bolt]

Interesting, but it is damage balancer itself that prevent the callback from firing

[slow bolt]

So i am trying to dltx replace the icons but they dont change. Why does this happen?

All other DLTX changes apply but that

[random fulcrum]

maybe the file's name?

remember dltx is loaded alphabetically

[slow bolt]

mod_system_zzz_z

[random fulcrum]

i wish the z stacking didn't take off it's such a cringe fucking practice

not even new copies of the item get the change?

[slow bolt]

true

[slow bolt]

copies of the item?

oh, inherited?

[random fulcrum]

i've had experiences with dltx changes not applying to existing copies of the edited item

no, ingame

[slow bolt]

Not sure what you mean copies then

[random fulcrum]

uh

[slow bolt]

You mean items that already existed and spawned, i see

[random fulcrum]

think you have 4 yadulin ingame

you dltx a change

[slow bolt]

there is no difference

[random fulcrum]

those 4 yadulin remain the same

[slow bolt]

I start F2 and icons are still default

[random fulcrum]

a fifth yadulin would be different

then i dunno really

[slow bolt]

Yeah like it makes no sense

[torn vault]

which config file is responsible for spawning a bandage for every 5 bodies looted that didn't yield a bandage?

[slow bolt]

oh, that is a thing in gamma?

If it is, its guaranteed_drops

and i dont see that file, so

[torn vault]

@slow bolt gamma doesn't change this from vanilla ano, so most likely yes

phew, no more opening dead enemies for free bandages

[slow bolt]

Vanilla has that mechanic?

[torn vault]

yes, after 5 enemies without any bandages on them subsequent enemies have increasingly higher chances to have one, up to 100% after 10 enemies

[solid snow]

is there mod or script for 4x3 hud scale?

[slow bolt]

@random fulcrum so it's grok's damage balancer that is responsible for the callback not firing.
You said it will be fixed in 0.91 but i didnt see a fix on github. Unless by that you meant BHS

[random fulcrum]

yeah i know and i said it wasn't getting fixed

but then grok made a patch for it

sort of

[slow bolt]

Well it breaks callbacks because of this

callback aint gonna trigger if there is 0 damage done

[random fulcrum]

it's not because of that

[slow bolt]

why did callback fire then

[random fulcrum]

really i couldn't pinpoint the issue last night i just found out that the adb killed the callback

idk

last night tried even with full shit.power and it never went through

but having it over 0 means you'll explode with dot anomalies

like burners or fruit punches

[slow bolt]

well adb zeroes shit.power and then applies damage

[random fulcrum]

skull emoji

[slow bolt]

i guess that might be the reason why it is zeroed, preventing hit_callback from triggering

But that makes working AFTER adb so weird

[random fulcrum]

yeah it does

adb and gbo are extremely inflexible and a major fucking pain to work with

[slow bolt]

autism modding

[random fulcrum]

but compatibility isn't on the roadmap sadly

[slow bolt]

gonna test around and see how hit power varies without it being zeroed

[random fulcrum]

forcing the on hit callback to fire in the adb was out of the question despite it working flawlessly

[slow bolt]

Wanna redo a bunch of bhs but i need that callback to fucking work

[random fulcrum]

bhs is a dumpster fire

[slow bolt]

Hmm. Is there a way to fire on_before_hit callback of one script after the other?

@random fulcrum

[random fulcrum]

nah script load order seems to be random

[slow bolt]

shiet

[random fulcrum]

you can just make bhs not use that callback at all

and make it fire from the adb

like grok did

[fossil birch]

I thought adding a bunch of zzzz's to the name or something could affect the load order of scripts

[random fulcrum]

nah

[slow bolt]

I want it to be compatible without adb

hmm

[random fulcrum]

wdym

i mean without the adb on hit callback works out of the box

so bhs works without it

[slow bolt]

Yeah, that would require one way for adb and other for without it

but it looks unavoidable. I made damage pass-through work but it gets affected later down the line. Falling instead of doing 0.25 damage does 0.07

[random fulcrum]

i'm not understanding

[slow bolt]

As in script would need to check if .. actually nvm it would indeed be different only by 1 check - if adb exists or not. Then it is a regular callback if not

[random fulcrum]

but you can leave it as on hit callback

[slow bolt]

ye

Working around the issue, love it

[random fulcrum]

yeah i found the solution last night

        SendScriptCallback("actor_on_hit_callback", db.actor, damage, 0, shit.draftsman, bone_id)
    end```

paste that at the end of the adb's on_before_hit block

set local_direction to 0 because i couldn't be assed to do the camera angle nonsense

but that works flawlessly anyways

[slow bolt]

it does? shit_booster would still apply damage and set power to 0 though, no?
and damage value in on_before_hit is not the actual damage, but just a logic variable that goes to 1

the way to enable the passthrough to hit is to remove all the zeroing and damage dealing, as well as flag zeroing. But then damage will change later on outside of adb and destroy the point of it, so might as well work from inside adb like grok did in 0.91

[random fulcrum]

i mean sure suit yourself

the method i used ensures compatibility

calling only bhs from adb doesn't

since on hit callback remains broken

[slow bolt]

I meant my case specifically for BHS. But yeah it would stay broken

[slow bolt]

Though in what you posted it would have to go from shit_booster function and not the callback.
Just trying to figure out here as i dont understand

As well as still applying damage in adb, so that should cause doubling of the damage

In some cases return flag is set to false. Like elemental damage

[undone lily]

more like: I don't want random shit to mess with the balance I worked on for 2+ years

[undone lily]

Indeed. Just monkey patch adb functions. @slow bolt

gbo is a bit more painful because it's like one whole ass function that does everything. But adb is "kinda" modular so it should be fine to monkey patch. I didn't really made these addons to be modular or modified by other scripts sadly enough. Hence why I never made any MCM with it as well to avoid people fucking up the balance without knowing and then complain about how shit the system is

[slow bolt]

will look into that. For now just added ~4 lines into the script to inject a function call and enabled passthrough

[undone lily]

yeah but since that script is under development and improvement still, I would argue that it's simpler to monkey patch the relevant functions if you want to add a feature

[slow bolt]

Its temporary until i sort out the feature i am making

[undone lily]

that is, so you have less maintenance to do.

[undone lily]

ok

[slow bolt]

Monkepatch is definitely the way to go

Almost copying tarkov Limb system without thorax as an alternative BHS mode. Where vanilla health is more of a "wellness" meter

probably would be shit but idk

[undone lily]

I always thought that a BHS "lite" would be good.

• Only one health bar.
• Damages reduce your health bar.
• Medkits etc replenish temporary health points in your health bar.
• Post heal items convert certain amounts of temporary health points to stable health points.
• Temporary health points diminish over time.
• Temporary health points are destroyed first by incoming damages.
• the lower the amount of stable health, the stronger the debuffs: slower movement, arms shaking and stamina depletion multiplier.
• headshots to the player still deal specific effects and increased damages.

This simplifies health management, this keeps the importance of post heals, taking damages and healing during fights makes you less and less efficient, injectors heals and post heals at the same timewhich can keep you more efficient during long fights compared to medkits only. This also makes the required UI much smaller, just one bar. Then the UI can simply be Health, Stamina, Radiations + belt slots + Ammo Amounts + buffs/debuffs and stalkers identification on top.

Such a system would be even more interesting than the current BHS even, while being simpler, since in current BHS you can just spam bandages mid fight to heal your limbs and avoid the debuffs. Here you would have to use post heal midfight which triggers dizziness, or use injectors.

[slow bolt]

should be very simple to adapt the system to one health bar. Health itself that is

[slow bolt]

I really dislike current BHS, which is why i went to make a my own version of it where "just spam bandages mid fight to heal your limbs and avoid the debuffs." aint possible

I also disliked the fact that you ate most random shit and healed from it instead of actual healing items.

So in the end making a system(or, rather, already did. Now enhancing it) where if you want to heal for cheap with a medkit it's:

1. Slow use.
2. Long effect time
   Because of that medkits are not very feasible
   Stimpacks are though.
   Instead you are supposed to pop painkillers that dont act as temporary health but reduce the effects.

[slow bolt]

Anyone know of scripts that prevent item effects from firing?

I wanna disable healing effects for items on a whitelist basis

[undone lily]

[slow bolt]

Hello, how to revert the changes done by BaS to 1p29 Tulip reticle? I want to bring back the inverted post reticle of the 1p29.

I don't know what file to look for and what to do, I'm not that savvy when it comes to modding. I hope someone can tell me the instructions on how to do it. Thanks and sorry for the trouble.

[fossil birch]

Open up mod organiser, in the box to the right under where you click play, click on the tab that says data. down in the bottom right search box type1p29, and open up the folders gamedata, textures, wpn. Find wpn_crosshair_1p29.dds, right click on it, and click hide, keep right clicking and clicking on hide until wpn_crosshair_1p29.dds disappears from the list of files, it should be the old crosshair when you re-enter the game

thats why

but if i make the hrtz 4100 it makes it slower so

[small granite]

any ideas on how to fix this or should i try it again just with 16bit

[fossil birch]

it shouldn't change the speed, and it should be set to 44100 Hz. use Audacity, import the audio, click Audio Setup then Audio Settings, then under Quality change Project Sample Rate to 44100 Hz, then export your track back to where you need it, that should get it to play in game correctly

[small granite]

i use dacity ill try this now

Working! i was setting the hz in a completly wrong way

[small granite]

@fossil birch can i put more than 20 track into the folder?

[fossil birch]

I have no idea honestly, I haven't really touched anything to do with the radio, but I assume if you want to add more tracks than what is in the base game you would probably have to edit an .ltx file somewhere

[small granite]

Alright

[fossil birch]

actually give me a sec, I might have an idea

[fossil birch]

it seems like as long as they're named correctly there doesn't appear to be a limit to how many tracks there can be, if making a proper channel thats called _channel_3, changing the name to _playlist_3 should work. You'll just have to change the number in radio_zone_fm.ltx to reflect how many playlists/channels you want to add

there is likely very few people in this discord that know anything about quest logic.
its not something really to get into as a first mod project, you need to know about how a lot of other systems tie together with quests. its quite a web of different shit and most quests are set up pretty differently, youd need to give a lot more info on which quest and what step to try and get help besides just "how do i remove step"

should work for what you want, makes the KS-23 Kaban able to go in the knife/binoc slots, no other vaules changed so it's the exact same as the base GAMMA one except for the slot changes. For future reference, if you want to be able to put weapons in different slots, open up their corresponding .ltx and find the line

slot = 2

and change the 2 to a 1. if it doesn't have it just add it in

[fiery cedar]

Any way to make guns attach sights?

and what do i have to do to make them compatible?

Example, mkl4 cant attach the BaS scopes, what to edit to make them compatible

[random fulcrum]

make a new model for the gun with the scope attached

that's it

[regal bolt]

yes, there are things merged into the axr_companions.script file yet they have little bearing on the voice files that are called on the companion wheel. a clean intsall of the mod will not have any muffled audio playing for companion commands at all. see the muffled companion audio was not integrated even tho you made a soundcarpet for it.

[scarlet radish]

Guys, please tell me how to optimize or replace this function in order to improve its performance:

-- update 2 sec local uTime = 0 function actor_on_update() if uTime >= 2000 then my_update() uTime = 0 else uTime = uTime + 10 --I found experimentally that actor_on_update has a polling step of ~10 ms. end end function on_game_start() RegisterScriptCallback("actor_on_update", actor_on_update) end

The meaning of the function is to update another function with a precisely specified frequency.
Does it make sense to do this through delta?
Is it possible to use delta for actor_on_update or do I need to create my own binder?

[undone lily]

let me get you a working example:

trigger = 0
delay = 250

local function npc_on_update(npc)
    tg = time_global()
    
    if trigger == 0 then
        grok_delay = tg + delay
        trigger = 1
    end

    if (trigger == 1 and tg > grok_delay) then
        trigger = 0
        (... do stuff ...)
    else return end
end

function on_game_start()
    RegisterScriptCallback("npc_on_update",npc_on_update)
end

delay is in milliseconds

this works on actor update as well

[scarlet radish]

Thank you very much!

anyone have any resources on how to mod stash spawns? GAMMA has a bug where stashes spawn empty with the new maps from promzone and i´d like to fix them.

[undone lily]

Check Tweaky Breeky extra stash addon

[slow bolt]

i love AI in coding

all i did is forget one "and" statement and without it it would take me forever to figure out where and what i missed

Now if only they worked for the entire scripts instead of at most one function it would be amazing

[kindred tiger]

Why do you resort to neural networks for simple syntax errors? It's like shooting a pigeon with a bazooka.
The Lua interpreter will also tell you that there's something wrong in that line. Another plus: It works offline without any collection of data.

[slow bolt]

Aint using any lua interpreter for lua in VS code

So making that AI work is a pretty good way to solve it

Even if it might hallucinate the error lmao

and problem with lua extensions is the sheer amount of warnings and 'errors" is insane. Might as well not use it

[kindred tiger]

You do you. One could also use the Powershell (or whatever Windows calls the command prompt these days) and use the interpreter there.
I personally tend to avoid IDE's and so on, mainly because the 'convenience' has a cost: lack of simplicity - which introduces further problems

[edgy tendon]

i'm getting this error in gimp, it's the latest version, could the extractor be faulty?

[fossil birch]

Try reinstalling, if that doesn't work I use version 2.10.34 and that seems to have no issues opening .dds files

[edgy tendon]

the extractor i used corrupted the files so gimp didn't opened them, sue2 extractor worked though

[warped depot]

Not sure if this is the right section for this, but does anyone know of a mod that adds random events? Like ambushes, random calls for assistance (random mission, so to say) etc?

[hearty plinth]

Anyone knlw how to make gun models?

[river fjord]

theres many 3d softwares you could use, i prefer blender. theres a million guides out there on how to learn modeling and making a model for stalker is no different at all from any other game.
its just the exporting process later thats a bit specific about certain things

[opaque night]

Is there an easy way to change the path of the psy audio inside the brain scorcher lab without it affecting all the psy mutants that currently use it?

[warped depot]

I want to change the sound of one particular weapon, does anyone know how to do this? Do I just have to drag and drop some sounds?

[hearty plinth]

oh ok

[real thistle]

hi guys, I'm sorry if I'm at the wrong address, can I somehow install medical items from EFP?

[slow bolt]

pretty sure nothing is stopping you. it should be a self-contained mod

[real thistle]

Oh, I thought there were special animations there that gamma doesn't have. In fact, I was hoping to find this addon here or its name.

[slow bolt]

EFP has no animations really for them. I tested EFP and was severely dissapointed

i made #1137162280816099450 specifically to have meds anims and it has meds from tarkov, though not all available

efp has more meds, but no anims basically

[real thistle]

Oh, that's cool, I'll try it now, thanks!)

[slow bolt]

its different from default BHS and redoes evrything almost. Just saying so know what it is.

I remember there was an EFTMO(what EFP uses) ported for gamma. Gonna try and find it

[slow bolt]

@steady sigil you still got it?

[real thistle]

I'm so ashamed, but I don't see the file that needs to be downloaded here

[slow bolt]

Top right pinned messages. There you have the first post with all the links

[real thistle]

Thank you, I realized that I can't do anything in discord

[slow bolt]

anyway, move it to some other channel before mods show up. Since this channel is about making mods.

[real thistle]

[dusky aurora]

sorry if this is the wrong channel to ask about this but i figured you guys in here would know. Am I wrong in thinking the mods are all open source and i can just remove "core" game mechanics and features for myself e.g. hunger mechanics and coughing radiation sounds

[slow bolt]

Hunger mechanic is core to the vanilla game. Radiation coughing is G.A.M.M.A. Radiation Effects Overhaul iirc

[dusky aurora]

Ya and it's a boring, useless mechanic. Thank you for replying tho. I also hate the dizziness thing where the screen goes white, if I wanted to be punished with no vision I would have my younger brother stand in front of the screen, do you happen to know if that's tied to a specific mod? I guess for hunger and thirst I can make a mod or plugin that keeps those bars at full.

[slow bolt]

The dizziness is also vanilla game. It happens and increases if the item has alcohol properties

[dusky aurora]

Oh right I remember now, it's not the dizziness so much as it is the whiting out of the screen when my head is hit, it seems like it happens more frequently than vanilla but I might be wrong

[slow bolt]

Do you have body health system on? aka the limb damage

If so then, well, your head got hit.

[dusky aurora]

I believe so, I just have the default gamma stuff on for now

[dusky aurora]

So if I make any mods or such I should post them here ya? I think I will make a mod that negates all the boring stuff I hate. Like babysitting hunger/thirst stats. Losing vision and cracked helmets. Annoying coughs in my ear. All that stuff doesn't add to the gameplay imo, it's just noise and mindless button pressing.

[slow bolt]

In your opinion it is. If you want to make a mod for it - post it in #1035807043933720576 .
I completely disagree on all points, so

[dusky aurora]

Fair enough, I'll make a blinking mechanic for you, if you don't press B every few seconds your vision gets watery. Cheers mate

[spice abyss]

Anyone knows how the weapon parts % mod from efp is called?

[slow bolt]

That is a standalone mode called Weapon Parts Overhaul

Why are you asking about efp mods in gamma discord lmao

[spice abyss]

I wanted to add it to gamma

[slow bolt]

gamma already has that

[dusky aurora]

In your opinion it is, but he wants to add it to gamma

[river fjord]

what do you mean by "in your opinion it is?"
both modpacks use the same mod, downloaded from the same place, its called weapon parts overhaul, its made by arti, its not like its some mystery thing to be debated

[random fulcrum]

gamma has a prehistoric version of wpo but to the regular user this isn't noticeable

[steady sigil]

yeah i still got it. you can actually get it off my Icons mod. the eft pack has everything you need basically to run EFTMO for GAMMA. though fine tunning and DLTXing stuff really is dependant on your modlist obviously, so i can't say it's as simple as plus n play

[warped depot]

I've got a question regarding a weapon, the Noveske chainsaw blackout version. I'm using the GAMMA ultimate weapon pack and want to change the sound of the Noveske. I've changed the ;snd_shoot phrase in the LTX file, but the shooting sound stays the same. Do I need to change something else aswel? Cause I'm a little confused now

FYI, I've looked if any other mod overrules the shooting sounds of this weapon, but couldn't really find anything

[fair inlet]

snd_shoot_actor; make sure to assign stereo sound

[warped depot]

Thank you so much! I'll try that now

[warped depot]

Where can I adjust this, though? It's not in the weapon's LTX

[fair inlet]

then it's probably inherited from a parent section. Just add the snd_shoot_actor somewhere to overwrite

[warped depot]

Alright, I'll try that. Thanks once more!

[warped depot]

It worked! thanks a bunch

[warped depot]

One last question, if I were to adjust the silenced shots aswel, I'd have to add a line containing snd_silncer_shoot_actor, right?

[fair inlet]

it's snd_silncer_shot_actor, note the difference

[warped depot]

Alright! Thanks a lot! ❤️

[tribal rivet]

People, tell me, is it possible (with the store food mod) to make sure that after killing an enemy there are cartridges in his magazines? I know that you need to do this in the mod config, but what exactly?

[slow bolt]

MCM settings for mags mod and some other

You can increase/decrease the amount

[tribal rivet]

@slow bolteverything is standard, but there are no cartridges in the stores

[slow bolt]

Go to #🔨поддержка-стандарт-gamma-ru-ua if you speak russian and ask there

Are there any mods that fix the AKM so it can have scopes?

[old berry]

check if it has an upgrade that allows scopes

[valid swift]

Ive checked and it doesnt, the gun only accept suppressor.

[slow bolt]

Vanilla one iirc can take a scope

yeah, vanilla AKM can get a scope. BaS one cant

[hearty plinth]

Cring

[random fulcrum]

man has never thought about game design

[valid swift]

how would one delete a weapon from the game? Like delete akm_bas and leave just regular AKM[which can attach scopes]? Delete items/configs/weapons file and what else?

[fair inlet]

You don't remove weapon config or you'll crash. Open npc_loadouts_ files and remove/replace the respective lines there. Also check grok_treasure_manager for stashes items

[simple barn]

Guys I need help I want to replace PM with PB in choosing starting equipment how to do it?

[fossil birch]

in the box on the left under where you launch the game, click the tab that says Data, then in the seach bar down the bottom search for new_game_loadouts.ltx. Open that, then just find the line/lines that say wpn_pm and replace it with wpn_pb for the vanilla version, or wpn_pb_bas for the Boomsticks version

[simple barn]

thx will try it

[warped depot]

Does anyone here know if the M4 Skyraga has any daddy file(s) which edit the damage? I changed the ammo type to .300 and also tried cranking up the damage just a wee bit, but it doesn't seem to change ingame (weapon stats). Could it be that the damage stat gives a false number right now?

Nvm, I forgot to save the file lmao, I'm dumb

[lofty nebula]

i want to make a weapons mod, how and where do i start?

[orchid agate]

Any reason why I'm not seeing ammo inside magazines on enemies I kill?

[random fulcrum]

they're unloaded automatically

[orchid agate]

is there a way to make them...not unload automatically

so that I can unload the ammo myself

[random fulcrum]

idk look around the relevant scripts

[orchid agate]

how idk I've never dabbled in any of this

why would it even be made to be unloaded automatically

[vale knot]

if i was on my pc i could tell you what script does it

[orchid agate]

did grok make that script?

[vale knot]

nah he just edited a mags redux script

[orchid agate]

aah

cuz I always see some ammo outside of the mags

like 5/10 maybe bullets

[vale knot]

also its not the ammo being unloaded automatically

its that mags spawn with no ammo

[orchid agate]

why is this the case

I want them to

[vale knot]

if you go into mags redux --> gamedata --> configs --> items --> settings --> npc_mag_loadouts.ltx

[orchid agate]

not full ammo obv that would break the economy

[vale knot]

change the values to this

[orchid agate]

I want them to spawn with like max 15 bullets

[vale knot]

basically just copy these values to that file if you want normal spawning rates

[orchid agate]

why would grok make it this way

it doesnt break the economy

if mags spawn with some ammo inside them

plus enemies already drop barely any

[vale knot]

cus majority people find unloading the magazines annoying

[orchid agate]

so it barely changes the amount of ammo one will recieve

....

that's the entire fucking point of the mod

[vale knot]

• with how npcs drop loot now youll basically be getting double ammo

[orchid agate]

also

[vale knot]

i think its a nice balance

[orchid agate]

if people have such a problem with unloading

you can make it so that it unloads the whole box , no?

instead of per individual bullet

[vale knot]

yeah but that would work for your magazines too not just looting bodies

[orchid agate]

aah so theyre treated the same

[vale knot]

long story short its a personal preference thing

[orchid agate]

not as individual

modular my ass

ok so

I need to change what

I found it

[orchid agate]

what do I need to open the ltx with?

[vale knot]

Notepad

Change the # values to match the picture i sent

[orchid agate]

and I'm guessing that will make it so mags spawn with ammo?

will the mags be full?

or like random # of bullets

it doesnt look the same as yours?

some stuff are missing

k I did it

lets see if my game will blow up

Why were half the shit missing anyway wtf

IT WORKS

!

omg

@idle oasis we did it

[idle oasis]

nice

[orchid agate]

The ammo drops were random

some were full some now

if the ammo starts getting too much I can decrease the ammo drop chance im guessing

@vale knot tyvm for the help 💗❤️

[modest glade]

would it be really easy to lower the sound effect of weapons or a specific shotgun? im not sure where to look to find the weapon folders

[random fulcrum]

nab yourself savandt
https://www.metacognix.com/files/stlkrsoc/SAVandT_1.1.7z

it's the defacto tool for making audio be compliant with stalker

everything is perfectly explained in the tool

[modest glade]

thank you

@random fulcrum how do i find the sounds of stalker, lets say i wanted to lower the audio of toz 66, how would i find this file

[random fulcrum]

search the files

right hand side of the mo2 window is the virtual folder

all you see there is what's being injected into the game

the files that have the priority

[slow bolt]

well easier is to find that weapons ltx. it will have all the sounds listed there

in case sounds are named without proper naming

[random fulcrum]

yeah but you still run into the issue of redundancy

like

there are like 20 wpn_toz

only one of them matters

[modest glade]

i would assume they use the same sound

[random fulcrum]

all of them are slightly different in some way

[slow bolt]

same sounds

gotta find the one you want by knowing its section

which you find by looking in debug at that weapon in spawner

[slow bolt]

now you know which one

also absolutely sexy firing sounds btw on that one

[modest glade]

true, i think its pretty loud though

need earpro bad

did i find the right folder?

[slow bolt]

that is the models

[modest glade]

i see

i opened them all but none of them went boom in my ears

these are the gunshots lol

[modest glade]

i did manage to grab the audio and plug it into audacity but it sounds pretty bad.... but a lot quieter? so mission accomplished kinda

You can enable easyhealing in the mod script

I could do that but in the EFP modpack for some reason they have it so splints and such provide temp heals and regular medkits provide postheal and I am trying to figure out how to switch that around.

would need to edit the script to switch them up

remove medkits from healhelp class and replace them with splints, then add medkits to medkits class

hey guys! Maybe someone knows how to add MagsRedux magazines to specific trader stock? I was trying to configure it by myself, but only managed to add mags to traders, that already exist in mod configuration. The problem is - there are no WP traders in existing config, only NATO. And it seems weird, that NATO faction traders sell WP magazines. I tried to use Mags buyable at traders mod, but i don't like the way all possible mags are available after reaching 1000 faction goodwill and don't know, how to configure it also. Any suggestions?)

how hard is it to make an animation mod?

[vale knot]

You can checkout my mod in #1035807043933720576 for how it adds mags to traders individually

Just look up shines fixes or sumn

[subtle hemlock]

is there a way to import an animation from another game to stalker?

[slow bolt]

Very hard if you dont know how do to animations.

[subtle hemlock]

and to import an animation from another game?

say the gas mask anim from metro exodus

[valid swift]

whats the formula for weapons and bullet damage?

[slow bolt]

I am not versed in animation and modeling, so i cant help

[celest forge]

I'm having an issue with a gun i'm making

The magazine size is 70

for some reason everytime i full auto the gun all the way, it crashes exactly on the last 5 rounds

like as soon as the ammo counter hits 5 it crashes

However it doesn't happen If i shoot in like 20 round intervals

Anyone with a clue of why this is happening?

[opaque night]

Maybe the anim set you're using is expecting a certain number of shots to empty?

Kind of hard to diagnose without you posting your actual error log lol

[celest forge]

There's none

When it crashes it's just empty sack trace

[worthy mortar]

I'm feeling devious so I dropped an idea on the Anomaly Discord server :P

[sinful quest]

maybe i'm dumb, but this one GAMMA-Mags-Redux-Fixes-1.2.4 is the only one i found. But there is no traders personal configuration, or i just can't find them. May you explain where should i search?

[vale knot]

Just search trade in the files

Of the mod

[sinful quest]

@vale knot well, that's all search found (files content included). I tried to add similar files for other factions, but they didn't work

[tribal rivet]

help, 0.9.1 the mod stopped working UTJAN'S ITEM UI IMPROVEMENTS
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/utjans-item-ui-improvements/page/2#comments

[vale knot]

cus these are dltx files

they modify existing files

for example "mod_trade_mercenary_mags.ltx" modifies "trade_mercenary.ltx" from vanilla anomaly

if you're trying to figure out how mags get uploaded to traders from mags redux i honestly have no idea. you can ask RavenAscendant

[sinful quest]

wow, thanks a lot. I just found not modified files and added mags redux pattern to them and that worked. For example: I added file named "mod_trade_stalker_loris_mags.ltx" and that worked. Thanks again 🙂

[wary mango]

Hey you think we are ever gonna get a mod that allows the user to inspect their weapon like tarkov

[random fulcrum]

tarkov mentioned

[abstract hedge]

I couldn't post in suggestion, probably due to my rank but I believe these would make a fine addition to GAMMA as I haven't noticed much or any blood spray, bulletholes are all but non-existent as far as I can see;
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/bullethole-decals
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/blood-of-the-zone-151-cinematic-vfx-required

[old berry]

pretty sure botz is already included

[abstract hedge]

Gonna go and find a bandit to test, haven't been close enough to see the sprays

[tidal elbow]

!inspect // we have this, see if it's what you're looking for

[queen pine]

@wary mango 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

[regal bolt]

any guide about adding new factions or npcs?

[wet quarry]

Hey folks, noob here

I know about level design but I don't know shit about modding Anomaly, is it possible to modify existing maps ? And by that I mean modifying geometry. There's some small changes that would make it fit better to the style of gameplay of Anomaly imo

[rotund wedge]

I wonder if there's a parser for *.ltx files from mods, can anybody suggest any library?

[river fjord]

i just have a vsc workspace set up with the mo2 mod directory added as a folder if thats what you mean, can search keywords in any scripts,configs etc of all the mods you have

[river fjord]

not really, adding new maps tho is possible but it requires very very intricate knowledge of many different game systems

[rotund wedge]

No. My current idea is to parse all the G.A.M.M.A. Economy/gamedata/configs/items/trade/*.ltx to produce a list what items are sold by what traders (including the price modifier, as certain traders sell with lower prices). I just do not want to do this manually.

[river fjord]

no idea then sorry

[wet quarry]

Sad, thanks anyway 🙂

[river fjord]

unfortunately mapping is pretty rough right now for anomaly, hopefully that changes in the future tho
theres the modding book you can check out for starting out with a lot of things tho
https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/

[wet quarry]

oh that's perfect, thank you !

[prisma pagoda]

anyone knows which file do I have to edit to change food buff values?

[rotund wedge]

I wonder where prices for all in-game items can be found. I've tried looking for them via rg -n "^cost\s*=\s*" > costs in both Anomaly and GAMMA directories (rg applies a regex search to all the files in current directory to find matching lines, -n means 'print line numbers', "^cost\s*=\s*" means find all the lines which start with cost\s*=\s*, which simply looks for cost = 123 lines with any number of spaces between =), but there are lots of things I could not find price for (medkit, prt_o_fabrics_3, prt_i_plastic, e_syringe, etc). My guess is that they are defined by Anomaly somewhere, but I can't understand whether there's any text file with this info with Anomaly distribution. Can anybody suggest?
tl;dr - are there any prices set by either Anomaly or GAMMA outside of textual files (in other words, are there any prices that cannot be found by looking for cost = thing)?
yep, in Anomaly/db/configs, extractable via Anomaly/tools/converter.exe (or Anomaly/tools/db_unpacker_all.bat)

[slow bolt]

you would need to DLTX them

[prisma pagoda]

please elaborate

[slow bolt]

As in overwrite their values with your own. You can overwrite only those values you want.
I dont think food is changed in gamma so you would need to check that. If it isnt then you would have to unpack game files to make a small mod

You can check using a text searcher like anytxt and searching its section name

[prisma pagoda]

I see, ok, will look into some modding basics then

time to dust off my VSC after php and python

looked into the code for the BS lab change since there is a heated rant in stalker chat right now @slow bolt , how is that value calculated? I see type declared as "dec" but how is 650000 = 7 minutes?

[slow bolt]

650000 is 10.83 minutes. Assuming we talking about how game measures time

[prisma pagoda]

yeah, should be but it isn't working then for some reason

cause the timer is 7 minutes still in BS

[slow bolt]

it is overwritten somewhere down the line then maybe

[prisma pagoda]

ok, gonna post a bug report about it then

so the value is milliseconds?

[slow bolt]

1000 is one second

[prisma pagoda]

yeah, so milliseconds, thanks for the confirm

[rustic carbon]

Is there a way to change penetration and damage values of bullets, if so how

I couldn't find anything which directly refers to bullet types in GBOOBS files

[abstract hedge]

In the settings menu there is an option to change yours and the enemies damage, they are seperate sliders contained within the same submenu

Lemme get on and check for you

[rustic carbon]

You mean gameplay options, I know of the slider for changing hit power

But what I mean is

How do I change the penetration and damage values of bullets

For example if I want to increase the pen of .357 rounds which mod and which files should I edit and how

This is something I've been wondering for a while now

So

Any help would be welcome

if I want to change the values of food/medical items, is there a file i can edit easily to do so?

ie strength of effects/durations

[slow bolt]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

[rustic carbon]

This is something else, why is it so complicated to edit bullets

Why can't I just throw some numbers 😩

Anyways I will be trying to do something with this

[random fulcrum]

it's not complicated

it's super easy

like really really easy

[rustic carbon]

It would be awesome to have a mod which would allow players to edit all bullet penetration and damages via mcm sliders

Or something like that

[rustic carbon]

Really?

One thing I don't get is how do I decide what values to put on k_ap or k_hit depending on the value I change

[random fulcrum]

hold up i'm cooking

you familiar with dltx?

[rustic carbon]

Not really

I usually edit stuff via notepad

[ruby inlet]

There should be a mod that either allows you to do mm/brain scorcher and buy the Psy helmet if story mode box is disabled or a way to completely delete the living legend, I don't want the annoying messages about strelok and I don't want to make the living legend just to make them disappear

[random fulcrum]

(don't tick story mode when creating your character)

ah well idk

start the first part of the questline

get the helm

and do freeplay

you're not forced to do anythng else

[ruby inlet]

Ok, I hope that the stalker population shuts up about strelok, thx

this is really really good

Ive been having a hard time understanding the values especially

can I use this method with weapons also?

weapons are another entirely different (and way larger) can of worms

check the modding book referenced at the bottom of the example file

Hey, I unpacked the configs.db0 file to edit some quest item properties (using AXRToolset DB Tool). How do I repack the unpacked folders back into a single .db0 file again?

[quick juniper]

how come the pistol racks from home improvements are backwards when you place it down, and i dont see a way to flip it around either.

[unique rampart]

Any of the more seasoned Anomaly modders active here?
I'm trying to find a reference of available xr_effects to change the behaviour of the Lootbox mod
-- play cool animation, with cool sound
if get_config("animation") then
tool_sec = get_sec(tool)
local sound = ini_tools:r_string_ex(tool_sec, "sound") or "Plastic_Small_Pick"
local delay = ini_tools:r_float_ex(tool_sec, "duration") or 5

   ** xr_effects.disable_ui_only(db.actor, nil)**

    utils_obj.play_sound(sound)
    print_dbg("Start open box with id "..id)
    RemoveTimeEvent("lootbox","box_open " .. id)
    CreateTimeEvent("lootbox","box_open " .. id, delay, 
    function(id, give)

     **   xr_effects.enable_ui_lite(db.actor, nil)**

        open_lootbox_timer(id, give)
        return true
    end, id, true)
else

basically I want to change these 2 lines, so that either A) the screen shake still plays but the UI is always enabled during, or B) the UI and input is completely disabled then restored after a delay.

Currently, it does disable the UI, but seems to break it a little as it won't come back without another "fade to black" scenario such as campfire saving, sleeping etc.

[ivory sand]

is it possible to use EXPEDITION graphics with Gamma

[thorn gust]

look up expedition in mod posting

there is a profile for it, though it takes some work to download

[old rain]

is there any kind of DLSS or upscaling available somehow?

I know reshade has some stuff available like that for some games

[nocturne shoal]

Is there a way to change what's inside of "model_scope_lense.ps" because I can't seem to find it's .PS form on bas's shader folder or anywhere on my modlist, only the .s* and .vs . I need it so I can fix the problematic crashes I'm getting ingame

[regal bolt]

i’ve seen a multiplayer mod for stalker before

anyone know what its name is?

[regal bolt]

Is it easy to change what sound file a specific weapon uses? It seems the new AK74M(Higher textures, wood mag) added has different sounds to the BaS AK74M (black version)? Also the AK RD704M seems to have bugged sounds?

[dusk nest]

brothers anyone know where the coordinates for the laser pointer in a given weapon are?

The as_val_tac's laser pointer is off-point when aimed down sights

[regal bolt]

w_val_tac.itx is the file you want to edit I think

[faint sable]

better to dltx it

rather than touching its main ltx

[dusk nest]

check which mod has priority in the list, then find the sound and replace the ogg? Dirty but works

[regal bolt]

Yeah that's the dirty way of doing it, I changed the HK416 weapon down position using that method

though @faint sable has better advice

[dusk nest]

dunno what that is I'm a dirty modder

[faint sable]

can also dltx sound oggs

its when you create simple mod_systems

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LF8p9_tyqWo&t=70s

should give insight on how to fix your laser

[dusk nest]

thank you

[faint sable]

I teach how to DLTX weapon huds and such

[faint sable]

you can dltx oggs sounds by doing stuff like this : example mod_system

each ltx has snd_ lines

which mean sound

so snd_shoot is shooting snds

snd_silencer is silencer snds

dltxing is way better, easier to maintain

[regal bolt]

That does look far easier lol

If that file would be loaded last, would it apply the modded weapon sounds to that specific weapon?

[faint sable]

yes

dltxs overwrites all ltxs

[regal bolt]

for example the BaS ak74m uses a modded sound, would I just edit the AK I want to 5.45 sounds and it would apply that?

@faint sable thank you dude

[faint sable]

so if you find the BaS Ak74m and look within its ltx, it will have snd_shoot and such and snd_silencer_shot and same for actor and stuff

you can take its snd_shoot files and make a dltx for it

[regal bolt]

thank you dude, explained so well

Ah I found it with your example file, the AK74M_N uses AK12 sounds

[faint sable]

Yep

most of the snd lines are found I believe from Dark Signals audio mod

[regal bolt]

I don't mind the sound so much as the inconsistency between the different variants of AK

[faint sable]

If you find a snd_ line you like, can make the gun use the exact same snd_ line

it is what I did to fix some of bas 2022 audio issues for snipers, made them use other sniper snd lines to fix them

[regal bolt]

So I could make a dltx and apply this line to all AK74m variants, even modded ones;

snd_shoot = wpn_ak74_snd_shoot
snd_shoot_actor = wpn_ak74_snd_shoot_actor

snd_silncer_shot = wpn_545_snd_silenced
snd_silncer_shot_actor = wpn_545_snd_silenced_actor

to grant them all a consistent sound

provided it loads last of course

Sorry if I'm repeating myself I just don't want to spend the time doing it only to know i messed up haha

[faint sable]

since all aks have different ltx names, usually they all go by their debug name. so in debug mode the gun names are like
wpn_ak74m and such. you simple do this to write it in a dltx form :
![wpn_ak74m]

and so on

[regal bolt]

I could kiss you, saved my ocd brain ❤️

[faint sable]

install via mo2

and if you are say editing the sounds during the game in debug mode, you can do a simple Num pad Enter 0 to refresh System.ini then click F5 to refresh the dltx change in Debug Mode

and should work in making real time edits

[regal bolt]

IS that able to be rebound? i use a 75%

[faint sable]

it can be

just go into keybinds

and change it

or the debug mode is like you can click on the options too

so you can just click system.ini refresh then f5

[regal bolt]

is rad online compatible with gamma

[faint sable]

no

[regal bolt]

thank you again dude, i'm going to install that ak file ❤️ and have a go with using your advice for other weapons i find with inconsistent sounds

[faint sable]

accidently misdid its ZZZ

usually you do mod_system_zzz_nameoffile.ltx

hopefully it works, if not later I can do a visual guide for it

[dusk nest]

@faint sable how do you unlock controls in the hud menu? To ADS?

[faint sable]

you mean using the weapon hud editor?

or how to do its second ads for laser

if its the laser. you need to click V in game first, have the laser out, then touch alt aim positioning via weapon hud editor

click G for crosshair

the laser must align fully with the crosshair

or it is not aligned properly

with the hud open, you can click H for full details on what everything does too

should give insight on how to fix it

I done several laser and gun fixing so I know basically all of hud editing for guns

[dusk nest]

I mean how do you aim down sights with the editor open? My controls seem locked with it open

[faint sable]

you need to aim down first in game them open its hud

usually how it works

[dusk nest]

when I open the debug menu it "un-aims" tho

I can see how you did it in the vid, but mine seemingly disables game input

[faint sable]

so when you aim down sights in game, then F7 then 5 you can not move it?

[dusk nest]

the editor works, I can't keep the gun aimed down sights

[faint sable]

this is the gun?

[dusk nest]

yes

[faint sable]

I can't seem to have your issue

for the change did you want the laser being where the iron sight lays?

[dusk nest]

yes.

basically you can walk around and move your camera while having the debug menu active?

maybe its a matter of turning off the mouse

[faint sable]

oh, you can not move around during its hud usage, you can only move the gun

[dusk nest]

I made it work, gotta use toggle aim mode!

[faint sable]

ooh yea you need to toggle aim mode for it

also this laser on this val is a bit weird, seems its model sight is already off center so the best you can do is this for it :

seems the laser is just too far up

or if you play around with it might get it how you want it

[dusk nest]

Yeah the laser itself is off, I'll keep trying till I get it good

thanks for the help

I just mean the damage

feels like a bit much to get hp damage from 1mm of radiation bar is all

[slow bolt]

Well if it aint the cough then idk. It is a vanilla feature

[spark oriole]

I figured Gamma has something separate for it, given the radiation overhauls

oh well

[slow bolt]

It does. But you said it aint the cough.
Gamma has the radiation cough in gamma radiation overhaul

Specifically grok_progressive_rad_damages.script

[spark oriole]

I guess the cough is tied to the damage you take? Not sure how to say 'hp damage' otherwise

ok will check that out

[main cloud]

Hey so can someone interested work with me to create a dynamic breathing mod? The concept is that your characters breathing tempo/loudness increases when sprinting, and decreases when walking, further when standing still, even more when crouched. As well as changes and reacts to being injured. And I’d like the mod to include a custom (optional) mask breathing fog effect that actually synchronizes with the breathing effects. I’ve got voice recording equipment, I just have no idea how to make mods. Im happy to do the uncomfortable task of recording breathing effects if I need to, I just need a modder who also sees how intensely neglected this particular mod niche has been. Anybody interested?

[opaque night]

Just so you're aware for the future, the mod request you're asking for covers quite a range of skill sets. You'll need:

1. Someone who has scripting experience to create the framework of the mod
2. A sound designer, or at the very least someone who knows how to port sounds over to xray (probably the easiest part to do tbh)
3. A shader designer (I can literally think of only four people in the entire community), to make or redesign the mask fog effects

I'm definitely not trying to dissuade you, but I find that people are reluctant to jump into doing all that work without there being something tangible to show someone before hand. So here are my suggestions.

1. Create a pool of sounds that you are happy with, and that are compatible with the game. You might have to learn a few things along the way, but that makes it clearer that you're a part of the modding community, and not just another person with an idea; and
2. Start small, then expand. Try to release the add on with just the scripting and the sounds first. When people like it and use it, try to convince a shader guy to help with the graphic component

@main cloud I have quite a bit of xray sound experience, so you can ask me for some advice if you like about the sound work, but I can't help you with the rest, except knowing what you'd need to ask for from others. Have a look at the openxray project mask fog effects that they released recently on YouTube. They seem like that's what you're after

[random fulcrum]

xcvb has a really good weapon sway mod with a holding breath mechanic, super customizable

demonized has advanced stamina system

that has mechanics regarding blood loss, losing speed based on stamina, etc

psy stress has a robust framework to check for different conditions to drain psy health from the player depending on the context

you could build your mod on top of the functions those provide

but that only covers the coding part

you're still left with the shader issue as desman mentioned

[main cloud]

@opaque night wow thank you for such a comprehensive and well thought out response! I found it insanely insightful, I’ll definitely try and message you about that advice, my life is pretty busy atm so no promises, but wow I didn’t think it was such a vast undertaking. But even so I am still very much interested in pursuing this if I can. And yeah the openxray mask fog effects I saw recently on YouTube led me to try and really pursue this. Won’t be an easy process getting this going but I appreciate the straight forward approach you took with telling me all this. Thank you 🙏🏻

@random fulcrum My brother is a talented and experienced amateur blendr animator but idk if that has absolutely anything to do with designing shaders tbh idek what “shader designing” is

But thank you too for your response 💖

hey, I'm just very interested about the game mods, how hard is to add another type of ammo? there is any modding tutorials or place I should start and learn the basics?

[steady minnow]

i was having an issue with my mono skat-9 showing blue clear sky legs. i looked into the mods folder, and found the items_actor_legs_hd.ltx file in 236 1st person body

i think the mono skat-9 would be [military_mono_outfit_legs_hd]:monster_base, actor_legs], and it is already assigned to pull visual = sm\actor_legs\hd\skat_monolith_hd

so perhaps the actual texture its pulling is bad and i should just change it to a diff mono leg that works

[misty mulch]

i presume this is what it's actually pulling from since this is the only one int he skat section that gives the csky_hd line

granted it's the CS version, allegedly

[steady minnow]

ok so heres the funny story

i DID convert this from a clear sky skat 9

could that cause the issue?

i assumed it wouldnt since the vendor replaced the item after i paid

[misty mulch]

Huh. I'm fairly certain armor exchange is supposed to just give you a new item? You could always spawn in the mono skat-9 via debug to check

[steady minnow]

it did give me the brand new item which is why i didn't mention it initially, but i will go ahead and check that in debug now and see if it makes a difference

if not i'll try swapping the 318 line for the 315 line and if that doesnt work, i'll swap 315 for a monolith outfit that has legs that look good

Okay the legs have the wrong textures!

318 and 315 should be swapped. the clear sky skat 9 cs-4b has monolith legs and clear sky blue arms

[misty mulch]

good catch

possibly drop it in a comment on its moddb page as well?

unless this is some gamma specific nonsense tbf

[steady minnow]

well, after switching the lines the textures are still the same. what could i be doing wrong as far as editing and saving the file?

i found the textures that are being referenced so i may just rename them instead?

[misty mulch]

save/reload, spawn in new item, would be my go to, but i am by no means an experienced modder

[pallid talon]

is there a way for gun jamming and reloading to work like the one in the gunslinger mod?

[slow bolt]

and how does that work there?

[pallid talon]

when the gun jams no matter how many times you press R you just fix the jam and if you want to reload the gun you press R again after the jam animation, but in here it just reloads the gun again when it jams

there are some jam fixing animations(sometimes there isnt one) but it just mostly reloading the gun again

[slow bolt]

disable reload unjam on same key

this is literally a vanilla feature

[pallid talon]

i did try to configure the controls but they just disable each other

[slow bolt]

They dont

[pallid talon]

once i thought i didnt have any ammo but it was just that it disabled the reloading

maybe the problem is with the gun? ill try to change it and configure the controls again

[slow bolt]

No

keys can be made separate

[slow bolt]

try f10

the key unbind thing is common but in gamma

anyway, go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

or #🔨base-gamma-support if you dont use mods

[pallid talon]

alright thank you

[jolly pendant]

how can i nuke packing-unpacking animations from the game while leaving everything else in tact?

[slow bolt]

the what animations

[jolly pendant]

(un)packing artifacts into containers, opening packages and other stuff

[slow bolt]

Ah, so you want to leave equipping anims and nuke containers and stuff

[jolly pendant]

Im fine with animations for eating, skinning mutants and using medicine

but i want to get rid from the rest, if its possible

they dont add anything to the immersion

[slow bolt]

that is fdda. Just press [

vanilla anims will be gone

[jolly pendant]

i thought it disables everything

thank you

What are your thoughts on a quick crafting menu for consumables and most notably ammunition?
It would obviously only show the ones you are able to craft at any given time - Sortable by category and e.g. items Favorited via Sorting Plus would be first in the list.

The biggest con I see for the implementation of something like this is, that it is not really needed because you can simply craft the amounts you need beforehand. After all, this would mainly be a convenience mod - and inconvenience also has it's merits.
But that's also the thing: It is sometimes a bit unclear which amounts you have when your inventory is full - or even if an item is depleted. (I know, categories exist)

I intend trying to implement it, so it is worth doing but still does not overshadow the functionality of the workbench.
So far I've made a small prototype that checks the requirements and crafts one box of the cartridge currently loaded in the gun when holding the key of your choice - for longer than x ms

One idea I can think of to restrict this, may be a 'quick-crafting pouch' with all the tools and components ready to use that can also only hold so much - so it would be restricted to 2-4 crafts until it needs to be refilled.
Another possibility I can think of would be to have a random chance to lessen the crafting yield that increases the more crafts you did in a specific time interval.

Just asking here to get some opinions on the idea as this will be a laborious project - for me at least with lack of knowledge on how to make an UI in Anomaly.

Evening lads and lasses, quick question regarding updating but wanting to use the merged HD models pack without starting all over again. The process should be, make a save, export it using NewGame+ mod, update via GAMMA launcher, install merged HD models via their guide, then import my save using NewGame+. I just want somebody experienced in GAMMA modding to confirm this to be correct? Thank you

[ionic forge]

I've been creating custom level transitions based on Demonized's scripts, however I can't seem to make the player face a certain direction when the next level loads?

even if I type in " dir = 0,180,0 " (example) in the ltx file after " to_pos = xxx" and "to_gvid = xxx" the game just ignores it. Does anyone have any advice?

[red tree]

no need bro. just update deactivate what you normally do and activate the HD back up again.

[faint sable]

Possibly talk to xcvb he done the new levels mod and had to make transitions for them

Pinging him wont hurt

His name is just xcvb

[abstract hedge]

Everything worked except when importing my save my companions didn't carry over 😦

[red tree]

i never touch anything and never have a problem haha. dam. like i dont even touch my saves. i just literally update. and re do my mods and thats it.

everything is fine when i load my save usually

[abstract hedge]

So you're saying you didn't need to start a new game for HD models to work??

[red tree]

nope

[abstract hedge]

Damnnn

[red tree]

i only had fanatic atm tho

[abstract hedge]

I kinda needed to anyway, as I may have set the stalker pop multiplier setting to 1 and Agroprom was laggy as fuck, dripped from 60 to 20 FPS 😂

[haughty siren]

hey, does anyone know how to add custom ambient music? Not radio music, just the stuff you hear while roaming around

i've already got most of the songs converted into ogg and stuff

[ionic forge]

Thank you for the advice. The issue was actually on my end, so I won't have to bother xcvb. I was just using a version of Extra Level Transitions from 2022 😅

I've since updated, and now dir = x,x,x properly works!!

Will there be a Pol Pot mod for Gamma

[silver plover]

wait no pol pot was someone completely differnet

why did ho chi min pop in my mind

[terse totem]

This might be the wrong place to ask this as it may pertain to a specific mod not Anomaly in general, but does the engine care about the format of numbers at the end of files? eg: sfx_1 vs sfx_01

To be more specific, I'm working on stuff for voiced actor and the software I'm using always uses leading 0s with no way to change it, but the files I'm replacing don't use leading 0s

[celest forge]

2D shader based scopes don't work for me at all

Any clues pls?

[steady minnow]

hey, how would i go about modding the KS-23 Boar into fitting in the vision/melee slots? alternatively, making the Axe fit in the melee slot

i searched and people say its very easy to do i just need to know where to find the correct ltx

[random fulcrum]

![wpn_ks23]
slot = 1

[steady minnow]

is this just a command to run in game or do i edit a file

[random fulcrum]

make a new file

(new mod folder)/gamedata/configs

mod_system_(your mod name).ltx

paste that into the file

enable mod in mo2

that's it

[steady minnow]

Ahhh ok, thank you

[random fulcrum]

idk which ks23 was the short one

[steady minnow]

I found it in the debug already. i get it now

[random fulcrum]

okay

[steady minnow]

its just a simple mod that runs the item script to tell the game it works in that slot

thanks

[tribal rivet]

Tell me what this mod is called (to unpack packed lunches)

[haughty siren]

Guys?

[vale knot]

you can add the tracks to one of these 4 folders (depending on where you want it to play and such) here

then you must edit game_levels_music.ltx

you'll add a line here that details the path to the song
for example: music/level/ambientmusicpack/your_song

and theres different sections

one for certain levels one for night etc

numbers on the right are values in order are
" hour of the day to start playing music , hour of the day to stop playing music , music base volume "
and the last two values are unkown so just match them with the others

[haughty siren]

thank you, my friend

[river fjord]

maid made that for efp

[celest forge]

Is there a way to "DLTX" or "DXML" a script?

Like if I want to add a new line to a script without just overwritting the whole script

[random fulcrum]

monkeypatching

it's a universal coding practice

so there's info everywhere

[tepid bear]

Is there somewhere I can read about the xray engine itself ? Rlly interested in it

[ornate spade]

not sure about info about it, but the source code is at bitbucket

[atomic latch]

yo, anyone knows where the lightning animations are stored? Like koster, ball_lightning_light etc? Searched everywhere but I can't find them

[versed wave]

is there a way to spawn npc by specific_character id ingame?

[lunar nimbus]

why

i cant think of a single scenario where u'd need to spawn anything by xml profiles instead of a section

[versed wave]

wanna spawn a female companion for my female char

[faint sable]

[lunar nimbus]

its not what i meant by scenario

i mean why spawn specific_character if they have squad section

[versed wave]

?
elaborate plz

[lunar nimbus]

how xd

cant make it more clear

[versed wave]

ok, let me frame the question differently
how do I spawn a stalker with specific visual model, women in my case, with squad section

[lunar nimbus]

modding-book on github must have an article how to make new npcs

[atomic latch]

I don't know why I went down this rabbit hole for an idiotic edit I want to make, I should keep just using substance pt and 3dsmax, but I'm like that... I installed the 0.4 SDK , made the virtual disk, but any .bat (particle editor in particular) tells me it's missing some ancient MSVCR71.dll

[lunar nimbus]

0.4 sdk is for soc

[atomic latch]

[lunar nimbus]

u need 0.7 preferably with all the patches

[atomic latch]

so that fucking google search of my ass, writing stalker sdk always showed me all webpages with 0.4, but as soon as i wrote sdk 0.7 there's a moddb page for it... I swear google should be nuked

omg is this going to become a thing?!?!? the amount of times I could have saved myself if I could just climb on top of a van or something >_>

[spark oriole]

that's pretty cool

[icy wyvern]

what the fuck

[spark oriole]

cant wait to pull myself up in my exoskeleton with 200kg of items

[steady apex]

at some point yes

[abstract hedge]

You sir or madame, are a fucking LEGEND! ❤️

[vale knot]

Iirc and im like 50/50 on this i think particles are stored in particles.xr

I never fucked with those files tho so im unsure

[atomic latch]

I solved the problem thanks to Lucy!
They are stored in lanims.xr but you can't open them with the particle editor, you open them with the level editor.
You launch the level editor, then inside that you run the Light Anim Editor and then it lists all the light anims, you can clone them edit them mash em put em in a stew etc, afterwards you click save and that's it.

I managed to do what I wanted, afterwards I'll share it but now I must go out

[lean apex]

К этому можно привязать худовые анимации?

[lunar nimbus]

конечн почему нет, вопрос только кто их делать будет

[magic willow]

Has anyone seen a mod for left hand gun holding? Or any info on how I'd go on about doing such?

[lunar nimbus]

dont think engine supports it

[magic willow]

I mean the bug that just got fixed put pistols in the left side so it appeared as if it were left handed grip so I'd be fine with that much essentially

I actually liked the position it was in but the aiming was also bugged so unfortunately it was unusable

[river fjord]

just reposition the weapon to the left with hud editor
jokes aside, just mirror the anims, its probably pretty easy to do

[steady apex]

Не знаю можно ли физически двигать игрока в процессе анимации как у унреале

Попробовать можно

[idle berry]

so I'm fooling around in the console does the set rank and set rep commands do anything

[shadow raven]

Can I request a mod? I don't like when raining that the campfire outside is still active and not affected by the rain, it ruins immersion. Can we change that?

[steady apex]

alrigth here it is

[old berry]

anyone knows how to exclude shift modifier key from keywrapper? (i cant code for shit) i have sprint bound to hold shift and i want to be able to reload while sprinting, i tried just deleting all instances of shift from the script but it doesn't work anymore for some reason

[spark oriole]

you can make shift sprint a toggle and not hold
