Is there a way to change health_hit_part In order to alter the damage done to enemies, and also for the actor (yourself) ?

[long kindle]

someone should make a mini inventory for mags and food/cigs,

so that the backpack can be put back and make it not so annoying for players.
i mean the backpack is a long animation so having a small pocket or somthing as a keybind with little to no animation would be great i dont know how to make mods so im just throwing it out there

[long kindle]

its hardcore so if you have alot of stutters or u lag i wouldnt recommend

but yes if you get shot in the arm it affects that part body and head are the assets you can drop leg and arm health but when chest or head reach 0 you die

[slow bolt]

There is no backpack animation

[long kindle]

i have a backpack animation lol

[slow bolt]

That is your mod

[long kindle]

maybe

[long kindle]

did you say go to hd models discord or the actual mod ?

ill do both fml

[slow bolt]

Just HD models thread

why would i point you to another discord

[long kindle]

im troubleshooting rn

Oh holy shit

[steel verge]

Hi, everyone. I'm currently want to edit a mod for my personal use. But I know nothing about modding.
Is it against this forum's rule to post a link to a mod and ask about how difficult it is to change it in the way I want it?

I'm assuming this is where you post your question about modding.

[tawny stream]

People ask stuff like this often. I'm pretty sure you're okay.

[steel verge]

I see. Thank you for responding.

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/bullet-time-boss-edition-mcm-capatible

what I want to change is just change it from consuming stamina to damaging psy-health. Is it easy to do or not suitable for a newbie?

Inspired by Cyberpunk's Sandevestian which the user slowly loses their mind or "humanity", the more they use it.

100% not lore friendly (lol) but I just want to use it and I think stamina cost is not really severe because its regenerate relatively fast anyway, unlike psy-health.

[tawny stream]

I don't know anything about the technical aspect of making this change, but I actually like your idea as a means of balance.

Way less easy to just cheese bullet time

[steel verge]

yep, I also considering applying a fixed amount of damage or dizzyness effect to player after the bullet time run out as well.

But that just an idea and I think it is too much for a modding noob like me, so I'm ok with just psy-health damage for now.

[sacred token]

I can't test it right now but try replacing the line 126 with

arszi_psy.set_psy_health(curr_power + (drain_rate_base * drain_rate_coef))

And line 124 with

local curr_power = arszi_psy.get_psy_health()

@steel verge

[steel verge]

I just tested it and it works. Thank you so much.

now, I shall find a way to make it last about 6 seconds. Based on the Apogee Sandevestian which David canonically used. THANK YOU SO MUCH, ONCE AGAIN

time to continue my suffering in the zone as a guy with a barely able to used cybernetic enhancement.

[vague sphinx]

@thin kelp Hi again, I have an important question, would it still work ingame if I "customize" a model by cutting down some parts ? For exemple I have cut down the "jacket" part here to make room for the Skat armor on Rogue, would that bug out in game or render just fine ?

[thin kelp]

thats essentially how to do kitbashes, ive done a similar setup like that for some factions.. you just need to make sure to join it all into one mesh. and make sure that the vertex groups are all correctly assigned, some models can have slightly different areas where vertex groups assign to when you join them, so its good to make sure to look at the groups, highlight them in blender, make sure it seems correct and that the vertexes in the group are all in the same area or part of the body. Generally it will auto transfer groups alright but its worth to double check.

Let me know if you get any issues or have any other questions about the process

[vague sphinx]

I think it's good if I understood correctly ? Won't that be a problem though in game ? It's a T-Pose here, but arms will be moving ingame so I'm kind of afraid to see if gaps of emptiness will be present honestly

[thin kelp]

that is all of the vertexes highlighted at once, you need to check each vertex group, should be groups for hands, legs, pelvis, head, ect

[vague sphinx]

Okay, let me see

[vague sphinx]

How do you highlight them separetely ?

[thin kelp]

should be in here iirc

[vague sphinx]

Yeah, found it, thanks, I'm selecting them one by one right now

[vague sphinx]

So basically if all the vertexes groups I'm selecting connect to each other it's all good ?

[thin kelp]

you want to catch any discrepancies, if like. the torso group has vertexes that are on the boots for example

[vague sphinx]

Got it, so far so good

[vague sphinx]

I think I have the issue yeah, it shouldn't highlight on the other side right ?

Same here

[thin kelp]

yeah so you can from here, select those outlier vertexes and click "remove" in that panel to the right, but make sure you only have the outliers highlighted during that

[crude orbit]

hi maybe some one can help ive tried adding weapon of efp to add more weapons in the library but there a problem whit the 3/4 of the mp5 and make me crash when someone near me got it in is hand (ive already tried in efp discord and got referd back here)

[naive snow]

Sounds like you're missing the wpn_mp5_sk1_hud

[crude orbit]

Would it be somewhere in the file of efp? So i can compress it to mo2 or put it directly into the folder of huds

I taught maybe it would be a conflic of overwrite or something like that im trying to patch it up ive found the location of the hud

it stil crashes after ive tried replacing the mp5 hud whit the one ive take from efp wepons folder

[verbal finch]

I am not sure if asking something like this is allowed but

I'd like to commission something from an experienced modder if possible. Basically, i want to mod a few new things into hideout furniture. There is a guide to add new objects but I find it kind of overwhelming as someone with no experience making mods and im willing to pay someone a bit of money if they would do the tedious part for me and add the things i want

[tawny stream]

Suffering in the zone is life in the zone

[verbal finch]

the main thing i want to add is placeable sandbags, a placeable wall, and a placeable generator prop - all of which are props in the game already (if we get more ambitous with the idea, I want to add items that let you build your own base from scratch in a way, but I am keeping the concept basic and plausible for now)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m3UTzZBNaOmU6k6HOA3kfZ9D50YdQzPQOiJ-6xiLwnI/edit considering that and the fact theres a guide here - hopefully someone will take up the task if i offer to pay them for the work c: send me an @ if you read this and want to give it a try

[tawny stream]

You should make it a completely separate weapon and see if it works first before replacing another.

You'll have to change all the IDs and references in the ltx file, but at least you can isolate what the issue is to your changes and not have to deal with the default gun too

[wary scroll]

Maybe it's a strange question but I want to know how can I have alpha and colour channel in one ?
Like there's a texture and it's using colour and alpha
How can I make something like this
I saw this in asphalt texture if it's possible please explain why it's only happening with asphalt texture
Thanks

[verbal finch]

when i open textures with GIMP, it supports transparency and colors, your image editor must not (or you need to set the project you made to use a certain color or image mode to support both)

[crude orbit]

ill try isolate the mp5 and install it apart whit mo2

[crude orbit]

look like its running smooth whitout the mp5 in the files mp5 itself works some maybe i was kinda right thinking it would be an overwriting of something

[strange hinge]

Hi guys today i just dig myself into the GAMMA and i found a bit annoying so i make it a bit immersive now using 501 mods correctly fine together

[surreal gust]

https://tenor.com/view/stray228-пачкаденег-gif-26445306

[strange hinge]

containing more foods lotta animations mask overlays a zombie apocalypse settings with good chance of loot but not too much it depends actually on u like u know before

actually find some really intresting mods what i want to share here hope u enjoy or take some advantages from that ^^ if u need help to make it work together just feel free to chat me ^^

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/aydins-hud-ui-tweaks-3-gamma

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

[crude orbit]

maybe you know some about installing efp wepons pack to gamma

[surreal gust]

or learn a new skill

[strange hinge]

ohh wrong chat i seen now

sorry about that

im really new

[strange hinge]

hmm lemme see

[crude orbit]

ive tried isolate a wepon that was a crash problemeatic but now its an other guns doing that

[strange hinge]

sv98 actually used in other default gamma mod what have different HUD

i think

[crude orbit]

was the mp5 before that was doing it now its the sv98

maybe would need a ui fix mod or some like that

[strange hinge]

i try to install to my game and check the solution

[crude orbit]

thx men

[strange hinge]

no prob bro

found some problems

Grok's Ballistic Overhaul and Arti's Ballistic Overhaul

these mods are just conflict together

two very big weapon pack mod

[surreal gust]

then disable artis bro

[strange hinge]

exactly

[surreal gust]

why would you use 2 ballistic overhauls at the same time

[strange hinge]

u misunderstood

these of the 2 if used one with efp thes conflict

[crude orbit]

did taught i would have 2

[surreal gust]

well i did manage to get glocks ballistics overhaul to run in anomaly

vanilla anomaly

[strange hinge]

well that's nice

[surreal gust]

you just need to copy and paste a few mods from gamma to efp

i dont which ones were called i forgot

[strange hinge]

idk bro im just learning the thing u know, im greetful for you success

[surreal gust]

i do remember that it was glocks actor damage balance something called like that

and close quarters combat

you should try to copy and paste these addons to efp

[strange hinge]

smokey bro can i share here some kinda immersive mods or better on mods posting?

[crude orbit]

would it be gboobs ballistic overhaul that would pose problem didnt seem to have artis ballistic overhaul got the parts overhaul from him

[surreal gust]

if you made these mods then you need to post them at mods posting channel

you can share links (mostly stalker related) to most channels in this server

[strange hinge]

then maybe that overhaul yep sorry for i didn't installed yet just have some thing to do im now arrived from work to home 😄

[strange hinge]

i aprociate it thanks

[crude orbit]

no stress

[crude orbit]

here a crash logs from a sv98 if you see something i didnt

[surreal gust]

you should ask the support channels

i dont use gamma anyways

if you're using default gamma go to #🔨base-gamma-support

if you're using modded gamma go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

[verbal finch]

you know we could use a "mods-discussion" channel tbh, somewhere to discuss mods when you're not making one, or looking for technical support - like just a place to chat about stalker mods or share mods like mr. wierdo was trying to do earlier

[random fulcrum]

oh so like general chat and modded support right

[verbal finch]

well modded support isnt really the place for casual discussion about mods

and general chat isnt focused on mods specifically

[random fulcrum]

wdym it isn't

[verbal finch]

what do you mean? im not trying to argue

[surreal gust]

there are like 15 or 30 people

that know how to make mapz for stalker anomaly ever

and probably hundreds or a thousand at best who know how to make maps for original games

[verbal finch]

im just saying it feels like there isnt a place to just pop in and share a link to a mod like "hey this mod is cool check it out", or "anyone have a mod recommendation?", support or this channel isnt really the place for that

and general chat isnt either, unless its fairly dead and theres not a convo happening already (im speaking from personal experience because ive asked about mods before and there was already people talking so my off topic comment just flew by basically)

i think it would be nice to have a mods-general for those kind of posts

[random fulcrum]

then idk talk about it in a suggestions thread

[verbal finch]

ok c:

[tawny stream]

HUD models are the first person gun models, not what is typically referred to as the hug in this game.

(in other words, not the UI hud)

[crude orbit]

Taught maybe somebody would maybe already made a patch

[shadow hull]

Anyone know which files / mods are responsible for the new changes to mechanics and upgrade installation? I'd like to disable them so that mechanics can upgrade my equipment again and so that installing upgrades at a bench requires repair kits again.

[slow bolt]

#1179484733764276234

[shadow hull]

Thanks, does this also revert the workbench change or is that something separate?

Nevermind, I think I got it.

[shadow hull]

Anyone know why the Gunslinger guns for anomaly mod breaks the base aek971's model and animations but the aek973 and aek971 Duty Camo work fine?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZBrzDcdwPo

[spiral stone]

anyone know which channel to go to about making a tab/page for the mcm addon menu list im trying to make one for an addon that I am working on but i can't get it to pop up even though everything looks right

[random fulcrum]

the bracket after gr should be on the same line as gr=

like gr={

instead of gr=
{

[spiral stone]

I think there might be some more typos, it still isnt popping up

[slow bolt]

Just copy an existing MCM script

[grand vigil]

Hello, I need help for modifying a script but I don't have much knowledge...
I would like to use the T-7 Thermal Goggles mod for it to work which is the EOTS-62 (gauss_sight).
Any help will be welcome, thank you.
You can mp me.

[brazen beacon]

hi, is there a way to delete dynamic radiation fields in active game? im sick and tired of irradiated camps that make me a dead man within a minute. for example agroprom factory is completely irradiated, cant stay in there in case of emission. or car park in jupiter, walk past and youll be vomiting your guts up (this might also be because i took several mods out that might adress this, who knows)

took a look at the script that creates dynamic radiation fields "gamma_dynamic_radiation_areas_from_arzsi.script" and it doesnt keep track of the generated fields anywhere? anyone know how to just loop through radiation fields and delete them? i dont care if it nukes vanilla radiation fields. just sick and tired of getting radiation poisoning from just looking a certain direction

[spiral stone]

radiation fields change? i rarely ever run into a radiation patch let alone one that will turn me into swiss cheese

[slow bolt]

Why not equip something with radiation protection?

Otherwise above

[shadow hull]

In regards to this issue, if I attach a kobra sight it fixes the model. Any idea why the base model breaks like this?

[brazen beacon]

can you point me to the script that changes them? i cant find it

[brazen beacon]

i do, but radiation damage is still way too high for my liking. otherwise the only thing left for me would be to just turn up passive radiation level decrease

[spiral stone]

Im not too sure about this but...

[spiral stone]

G.A.M.M.A. Radiation Dynamic Areas/gamedata/scripts/gamma_dynamic_radiation_areas_from_arzsi.script

set those to false, might do the trick but im not too sure

[brazen beacon]

alread did that. it seems those variables are only used once when a new game starts

i could make it generate new ones every time i load the game, but that would be the opposite of what i want as it doesnt remove the old fields

guess ill just ahve to set the radiation_v to a higher value in actor.ltx

thanks though

[spiral stone]

well by default there are rad fields on base anomaly not sure how to tone them down tho

besides tweaking actor.ltx

[brazen beacon]

yeah i know there are some, but i dont remember them being at the camps where stalkers sit down at a fire. so those are probably those dynamic ones, and i thought they would change after every emission, but looking at the code, they dont. they get generated once at game start and then stay

[shadow hull]

So I figured out what happened here. The model broke because I had BlackGrowl's extra guns replacer disabled, but with it enabled I lose the duty camo aek and the aek973. Is there a way I can reintegrate these back in?

[fair canopy]

you need to change the weapon section names

or make new weapon sections with them

[graceful sluice]

Hood blaster)))

[shadow hull]

You talking about these fields in the ltx?

[fair canopy]

yeahy

if it has an ltx overriding it it probably gets lost

[shadow hull]

The problem is if I hide this ltx the original aek971 model breaks like in the video, but if I restore this mod the model is fine but it turns the other two guns into the base model.

[fair canopy]

you have to merge that into the winning ltx

you have to setup a dummy weapon with the old aek models and then have those pointers , otherwise its going to use the new aek model and break the ones you want

easiest way to do that would be to copy the whole old ltx into the new one at the bottom and rename the original weapon then point those sections to the old aek

or actually you dont even have to do that, rename the ltx that is getting overwritten and then just rename the weapon section and make sure those sections point ot the new weapon name

[shadow hull]

Aight, thanks, I think that fixed all the broken guns I had so far.

[steady apex]

doesnt matter

[random fulcrum]

really

because i've had issues with putting the bracket on its own line before

the exact same thing

mcm tab didn't pop up until i put the bracket next to gr

[shadow hull]

Anyone know what this circle on the hud is meant to be?

To the right of the mags.

[steady apex]

you had a different problem then, in this case it wont matter

[steady apex]

stealth indicator

[shadow hull]

Oh, is that new?

[steady apex]

stealth addon was released 3 years ago

[shadow hull]

I never saw it until 0.9.1 just recently I updated.

Maybe I had it disabled.

[atomic cloud]

can i just mess around with cordon and put the modified version in the gamedata thing? or will something break

its really broken for some reason too

[naive snow]

Ping smokey, he's the most knowledgeable about getting maps in game. There's a whole bunch of compilation work needed for maps to play properly

[naive snow]

The white stuff is occlusion portals and collisions

[atomic cloud]

i mean i managed to change stuff for the debug area, i think the issue was a file thing

heres what i did to the debug place

[atomic cloud]

who?

[naive snow]

I wrote his name @surreal gust

[atomic cloud]

oh they custom map maker

hear me out, ultrakill in stalker

[surreal gust]

https://tenor.com/view/stray228-пачкаденег-gif-26445306

[surreal gust]

You can only replace (not add new) the geometry in existing levels

[atomic cloud]

aw

[surreal gust]

Otherwise AI map won't be 100% accurate

[atomic cloud]

what about removing?

[surreal gust]

You can't

You can only replace that object

with new one or one with higher polygons

You can add more objects in the outside boundaries of the map

That's because there isn't any AI map there

You will need the source files from CoC (levels, etc: escape which is cordon)

[atomic cloud]

isnt that in the unpacked folder?

[surreal gust]

It's only compiled

You need the source file build

[atomic cloud]

oh

[surreal gust]

After a fair days work

You have to compile the geometry

[atomic cloud]

idk what that means

[surreal gust]

it will do the light baking and other necessary things

it will take hours depending on build quality

[surreal gust]

They aren't broken

The white things are collisions boxes for bullets and other dynamic objects

Just use the source files from CoC they already have everything you need

[atomic cloud]

where would i get them?

[surreal gust]

from moddb of course

[atomic cloud]

is that what the sdk is?

[surreal gust]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/call-of-chernobyl/downloads/cocs-sdk-scene-update

Don't download the SDK from here

I think this update file has all of the map sources I think

get the SDK from here

https://github.com/Roman-n/HybridXRay

[atomic cloud]

ok ty

idk how to use it

[surreal gust]

Watch tutorials in youtube

Most of these are CoP SDK tutorials but they will work for anomaly too

if it isn't in english you can turn on the english subtitles

[rugged slate]

guys, wich file i must change for changing crosshair? system.ltx in gamma ui folder do not work

[tender pawn]

Has anyone made or can anyone easily make a mod that replaces one of the better knives in the game’s model with a sickle?

[cunning wigeon]

hey anyone that can help me make a desert eagle fire sound mod for gamma that doesnt crash my pc?

because ive tried but gamma doesnt like it when i try to replace the original audio of the desert eagle

so if anyone that can help me that would be much apreciated

[quaint vigil]

Is there any Ukrainian voice or subtitle mods? Stalker was my inspiration to learn Ukrainian and someday Russian but I would love to even just have subtitles

[slow bolt]

#1035807043933720576

should have searched first

[storm basin]

is it possible to make constantly moving weather?

not only in cloudy weather I mean

[tawny stream]

Have you tried just telling the game to use a different existing sound first? Just to make sure it's not the sound file itself that isn't the issue?

[zealous zephyr]

Hey, is there a working SDK that I can use to edit maps, smart terrains, and so on? I was trying to do this in Anomaly, but the SDK was crashing almost every time after just a few clicks. Editing smart terrains through the allspawn file is also quite time-consuming.It would be great to add new features or enhancements for the warfare mode to improve gameplay and strategy 🙂

[slow bolt]

Scroll up like 10 messages

[zealous zephyr]

yes, I used this but it keep crashing when I wanted to add for example sandbags

Maybe I'm not educated enough, I watched only some old tutorial in rus lang so

[surreal gust]

Why would you instanstly jump into anomaly map making and with your "knowledge" and call it a day

It's impossible to edit the levels the only thing you can do is to replace the geometry

Also smart terrain configs are stored inside the level files

All.spawn only stores the information about smart terrains and which ltx file they use for the configs

As of now it's impossible to add more smart terrains because smart terrains are placed inside a special graph point

Graph points are stored in .sections file and currently it's impossible to open these.

[zealous zephyr]

really? Cuz i added few by editing allspawn file and everything worked correctly including campfire for example

[surreal gust]

Huh that's weird

They're usually placed inside a graph point

[zealous zephyr]

i can show you on my youtube or send allspawn file for anomaly

[surreal gust]

Nah i don't care about smart terrains yet

I'm working on terrain for my map

[surreal gust]

Also what crashes are you getting

and from who did you learn this from?

I said theoretically it is possible to add new smart terrains about a month ago

as soon as I saw that they required graph points I called it "impossible" to add new smart terrains

[zealous zephyr]

give me a sec

[surreal gust]

I'm already an xray sdk (level editor) professional

i'm just asking where did you learn this from

[zealous zephyr]

from a friend on Polish forum also from creator of Anomaly and some dude on russian forum xD

it was kind hard to collect all info about this

[surreal gust]

meatchunk?

lvutner?

[zealous zephyr]

nope Alzudino or someting like this

[surreal gust]

ah i see

anomaly dev

There are like only 15 or 30 people that know how to make maps for this mod

Most of the maps for anomaly are just level ports (from moddb)

[zealous zephyr]

I was creating my first smart terrain for few months so

[surreal gust]

Here's a screenshot of my new terrain progress

using dyntopo from blender

I'm gonna show it within the actor editor because im using agroprom as a base texture for now

[zealous zephyr]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0tlWKN_9uA here is my video about my first smart terrain, I also created one with campfire and stalker seating next to it

[surreal gust]

Edged faces render

[zealous zephyr]

that's cool. I always wanted to edit map to add some more stuff like defenses etc

[surreal gust]

You can only replace static geometry

[zealous zephyr]

so you cant really add new stuff?

[surreal gust]

Nope

because almost nobody has the file sources

even if you did you would have to recompile spawns for every level

You can add new objects in the outside boundaries of a level

It took me about 4 or 6 months to learn all of this mapper knowledge

Also the terrain is huge

[zealous zephyr]

its hard to find a good source of information

[surreal gust]

750x750 meters

Most of the space will be for outside boundaries

So about 400 or 500 of playable space

[zealous zephyr]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-Ko-DxCGLY

i found something like this

[surreal gust]

I see

[zealous zephyr]

but its lod

[surreal gust]

Also

[zealous zephyr]

old

[surreal gust]

I'd recommend watching Infernis

[surreal gust]

Doesn't really matter

any tutorial from sdk 0.7 will most likely work

[zealous zephyr]

yeee i was doing exactly like on video, but it keep crashing

maybe I was doing something wrong

[surreal gust]

when did you start crashing

Smart terrain errors?

Maybe try watching the ai tutorial from infernis

it covers smart terrain configs but not camps

or other stuff

[zealous zephyr]

everytime i wanted to edit something or add new stuff like this, but it was quite a long time ago

[surreal gust]

Also if I remember correctly

I think graph points inside smart terrains were used as a respawn parameter

for the npcs

I'd recommend most of his tutorials since they worked for me

[zealous zephyr]

I will check then

Im loading my old anomaly game, so I will show you this smart terrain.

[surreal gust]

We can talk in anomaly discord server if you want

[zealous zephyr]

I dont think i have it

[surreal gust]

i'm in almost every og based servers anyway

It says that you're in it

[zealous zephyr]

oke wait

oh ye i'm in

[surreal gust]

You never sent a message xd

[zealous zephyr]

probably thats why i dont remember it

[surreal gust]

We can talk in the new levels channel (forums)

[zealous zephyr]

Oke write something there

oh but i dont have a premission to write on 100 bar rad channels

[surreal gust]

you have to type

.rank stalker

[zealous zephyr]

okey

sorry for phone screenshot btw XD

[surreal gust]

I see also

[zealous zephyr]

i could not take printscreen

[surreal gust]

can you open up debug map hud

it shows the information about smart terrains

like full info

[zealous zephyr]

i just closed the game, give me a second i will lanuch it thru steam

[surreal gust]

Alright

[zealous zephyr]

oh and it is not Anomaly it's based on CoC

[surreal gust]

Anomaly is based on call of chernobyl open xray edition

with last day gameplay mechanics

[zealous zephyr]

okey u need to give me a second, i have a problem to lanuch it on steam including with -dbg parameter as it is CoC so

[surreal gust]

Have you tried putting cheat_mode

I heard that also works

[zealous zephyr]

link in the console or what?

[surreal gust]

file shortcut

[zealous zephyr]

oh you mean bat file

[surreal gust]

you can also just use the anomaly launcher and launch into debug mode from there

you can link anomaly launcher into your steam if you want

[zealous zephyr]

I got it

[cunning wigeon]

i sadly dont know how to do that

i dont think its the sound files tbh

so if anyone could make a basic fire sound file mod for the desert eagle then i could give you the audio

here you guys go

i really dont know why i couldnt replace the audio of the desert eagle in the anomaly folder

so yeah

i am to afraid to mess it up so i kinda wants someone else to just make the correct folders for the mods

then i do the rest

[zealous zephyr]

@surreal gust

there is also a job to somehow light this campfire but its not shown i think in debug mode

[surreal gust]

I see

I also want to make a camp zone

you got any video tutorials for that?

[zealous zephyr]

camp zone you mean something like this?

[surreal gust]

Yeah

[zealous zephyr]

I can try to do one 😄 but most of important info was on old epic forum which went down. But i will try my best

[surreal gust]

Nah i just want a video link

I already know how to add fog volumes into a level

thats what i did with my volumetric smoke for agroprom underground mod

Also I use the nightly builds of hybridxray

[zealous zephyr]

oh I dont think there is a such tutorial as video

i have done this by using acdc compiler and decompiler for CoC and some ltx file in config>misc

[surreal gust]

ik

i know all of this spawn shit

just wondering how to add a camp zone and make it work

[zealous zephyr]

So bascilly all you need to do is:

Create new smart_terrain in alife_cordon for example
add paths in way_ file

then for example in gamedata\configs\scripts\bar\smart you need to create bar_smart1.ltx
There you add basic info like max population and jobs

I can just send you

everything that i have

[surreal gust]

for a camp zone

i already know how to make smart terrains

[zealous zephyr]

soo what do you mean by camp zone exaclty? Like stalker lighting campfire and seating next to it?

[surreal gust]

the one you just showed

the thing that has a bright blue sphere

[zealous zephyr]

can you like mark it or something? Because i dont think i get it :d

[surreal gust]

k

This

[zealous zephyr]

i see now

but this blue thing is a smart terrain sphere i think

based on video i provided you before

in the files i have only something like this about this

; cse_shape properties
shapes = shape0
shape0:type = sphere
shape0:offset = 0,0,0
shape0:radius = 2.08618593215942

[surreal gust]

Ah I see

I know how it works

I thought it was this camp zone xd

[zealous zephyr]

it is all code to create this outpost

including smart_terrain, campfire and one job to sit next to campfire

[cunning wigeon]

okay so i think the desert eagle is bugged because when i try this mod it just crashes the game when i equip the black desert eagle

[woeful rain]

[surreal gust]

I think infernis made a tutorial for that

I will check it

[shadow hull]

What files do I need to swap out in FDDA if I want to use a different animation for something?

[slow bolt]

You need to edit the files

[shadow hull]

Which files determine animations, is it the _hud.ogf files?

[atomic cloud]

wait whats the difference between level and .level? the sdk thing wants .level but none of the ingame things have a .level

[slow bolt]

No. The .ltx files

what do you want to do exactly

it might be easier to just tell you the steps

[vivid walrus]

Hey folks, any idea how easy would it be to create a mod to change the temp healing items to be permanent and the other way around?

[slow bolt]

Very

[vivid walrus]

Some experience with moding overall, completely new to modding annomaly, could you point me in the right direction?

[slow bolt]

You need to edit the script and swap the item names

and adjust the stats if you want

[shadow hull]

Change the harvest animation.

[slow bolt]

huh? What would you change it to then?

I assumed you wanted different water drink animation for example. Not skinning one

[shadow hull]

I like the one that is considered a risk, it looks better.

[shadow hull]

Sorry, so was it the ltx that needs to be modified?

[slow bolt]

Considered a risk? There is only one animation to choose from. There are no alternative skinning animations

[shadow hull]

I'm talking about an old animation that had the potential to trigger the busy hands bug.

[slow bolt]

Okay, what is the new one then?
Because there is only one animation

[shadow hull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHKWka8yMaE
This is what happens with the current gamma FDDA.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLZzH5lsOZE
This is from an older FDDA I have.

[slow bolt]

Okay first one has no animation. It is disabled, forcefully

What happens is the default vanilla animation. Which is why i said there is none

This is why i asked what animation you wanted to change. You need to unlock them, as they are not just hidden but also forcefully disabled in scripts(idk why Grok did this ngl)

[shadow hull]

Pretty sure he did it because of the busy hands bug. So where in the script do I need to enable it?

[slow bolt]

Well people should be able to simply turn it on with the unlocker if they want to(which is what it was before)
#1150520636406513785 message

This should allow you to use the entire FDDA animations arsenal

[shadow hull]

Thanks

[shadow hull]

Also I guess harvesting mutants no longer takes away knife durability?

[slow bolt]

It should

[shadow hull]

Welp, my knife is still 100% so I must have done something somewhere lol

[slow bolt]

could be a script thing

try addint this to the unlocker

same folder as the script in it

[shadow hull]

I'll try it out.

[shadow hull]

Alright, anyone know what file has the gun jamming info in it? My starting PM keeps jamming at like 96% so something seems off.

[slow bolt]

its own .ltx file

[slow bolt]

@shadow hull did this bring back knife losing condition on skinning?

[shadow hull]

Haven't gotten to test it out. I did read in the change log something about the starting knife having bugged durability so maybe if I change knives it will be normal again.

[shadow hull]

The pm's ltx?

[slow bolt]

yes

[shadow hull]

crosshair_inertion = 2.3
fire_dispersion_base = 0.62
fire_dispersion_condition_factor = 0.001

    misfire_probability         = 0.005
    misfire_start_condition     = 0.7 ;  0.81
    misfire_start_prob          = 0.007
    misfire_end_condition       = 0.1
    misfire_end_prob            = 0.11
    
    condition_queue_shot_dec    = 0.0016
    condition_shot_dec          = 0.0016

Am I reading this right and it's 70% it starts to misfire?

Or 81%?

[sacred token]

70. The ";" indicates the start of a comment for the current line. So the 0.81 is ignored

[vale knot]

SHoC in my dreams be like

[native tiger]

how would one change the properties of suits in the in-game files?

[severe coyote]

we need a mod that adds new furniture - a computer on which you can play Doom

[little grove]

how do i know if a mod if compatible with gamma or not? i have a zip file of etherion's all weapons alt aim from playing EFP 2 months ago and was wondering if i can put the same mod in gamma to make weapons have alt aim, or is there a mod already that is in gamma to make weapons with no lasers to alt aim?

[severe coyote]

is there a mod that changes the sounds of the pda if it is in your pocket?

[thorn stratus]

I would like to restore the ability of technician to repair armour, anyone knows when and how was removed such feature?

[fair canopy]

I think that's controlled with xml files. Adding back the ability to repair weapons is based on that so I would think the same is true for armor

Modify armor *

[thorn stratus]

I have been looking at files, like those, but I did not come to any useful conclusion

[bleak jolt]

Does anyone know how DLTX works?

[naive snow]

There's a full explanation and syntax on the anomaly modding book in the pins

[bleak jolt]

Oh ty

[brazen iris]

not sure if this is the right place but does the MLR location pack work with gamma?

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/mlr-location-pack

this mod

[random fulcrum]

what keeps you from doing some fafo

[brazen iris]

fafo? i dont know what the means im sorry

[slow bolt]

no

It doesnt work with anything

even anomaly itself really

[brazen iris]

DAMN

ok thank you

[peak quest]

sucks because thats exactly what ive been thinking of for years

just expansions to the already existing maps

new interiors and all that fun stuff

[slow bolt]

Anomaly sources are lost

so it would have to be redone completely from existing sources that are not anomaly. and that is a lot of work and a lot of potentially broken everything

That stuff above is also a very-very beta release with loads of bugs

[shadow hull]

How can I restore function to mechanics to be able to repair suits and helms? Currently I can only get them to do repairs on guns.

[surreal gust]

xcvb has them. But you would have to recompile each levels spawn

If you're reworking every single level then it's better to recompile every spawn file for each level

[surreal gust]

Most likely not

the problem is that if you put this on an existing save

it will crash because gamma has a custom all.spawn file with extra storylines

[cunning wigeon]

Hey can someone check out what I did wrong?

[shell widget]

any weapons packs that work for anomaly that are not BaS or PHANT0M'S TACTICAL?

[surreal gust]

You have re-animation mods

but they dont add anything new

[shell widget]

ye I've got some

I like to play warfare mode so I don't use gamma tbh

[surreal gust]

i dont care

i just play anomaly with some mods

[shell widget]

damn

[surreal gust]

and almost no animation mods

[vale knot]

Stcop my beloved

[cunning wigeon]

Hey can anyone like fucking help me? Like I haven’t gotten any help so can anyone do that please

[earnest flume]

guys, its gonna be so cool if developers add new movement inertia feature like this

[fair canopy]

What

Edit the map texture itself

[slow bolt]

what

[sacred token]

what

[surreal gust]

???

Did you just edit the headbob

You have to edit the map texture

[soft patio]

Anyone know how to modify GAMMA inventory UI to use EFP's status bars instead of vanilla textures

the straight lines feel more informative

[surreal gust]

whats wrong with the current ui

[soft patio]

doesn't GAMMA use default status bars for resistance/HTS

[slow bolt]

They are cringe

[slow bolt]

There are dozens of UI mods you can use

EFP UI isnt exclusive to EFP

[soft patio]

i'm aware just wondering if any of you know any i could use

since searching on moddb doesn't usually offer me much

Just curious if i can somehow merge these bars with GAMMA inventory UI

[fair canopy]

check #1035807043933720576

[slow bolt]

Again, it is a separate UI mod

Some people play gamma with it. Though it looks mega bad

Here is an example. Probably not the same one:
#1036125241447026798 message

[soft patio]

Im aware of that

I'm looking for the default gamma ui that can use the bars from simplified vision ui

would it be easy to modify it myself?

[earnest flume]

its not headbob dude, i was just strafing without delay in movement when i change my direction

google tarkov inertia, theres many vids about it

[surreal gust]

Tarkov cringe...

[molten forge]

Greetings, brothers. Does anyone know how to work on the "draggable hud editor" on the latest version of Gamma? I'm trying to change the position of some guns through it, but the problem seems to be that "cache_db" is created in the "anomaly" folder, because Gamma now has a separate file structure. But from the "anomaly" folder, apparently, it does not work, because after creating "mod_system_oc 33_repos" in the "configs", the same place as "cache_db" in the "anomaly" folder -- the position does not change in the game. Question, is there another way to work with the position on the "draggable hud editor" or am I doing something wrong?

[slow bolt]

Oh dear God someone actually likes that garbage movement

[slow bolt]

You are doing it wrong

You are supposed to take the values from the cache file and make your own mod for repositions

[molten forge]

I tried to go this way - I created all the necessary files, added values from the cache to them, made a file system for them ("name">gamedata >configs>"the files with the repositions") and put them in a folder with the rest of the mods. Activating the mod in MO2 and logging into the game, I saw that the repositions were also not applied.
I apologize for the machine translation of the text.

[slow bolt]

You need to learn how to create DLTX mods first

And you can use #🚽сральня🚽 or #☢чат-сталкеров-ru-ua for questions, assuming you do speak that language

[molten forge]

thanks

[lethal garden]

Im trying to change the faction relations between Mercs and Loners so they'll be neutral to eachother, I changed the relations ltx, but in-game, loners still attack me as a merc. Any advice?

[simple scaffold]

If you play as merc in story mode you get neutral to the loaners after the brain scorcher as a reward.

If this is just a for your own game thing:

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

[simple scaffold]

You probably didn't change the actor factions to NPC factions. That is easy to miss

As in I did it the first version of my mod even and I should have known better.

[surreal gust]

Bro half of these people are trying to tarkov-ise their modpack as much as possible

[slow bolt]

You are supposed to take the good parts, not the bad ones too

[sweet fable]

so, im using the M4 Beowulf mod and have this problem with ammo overlapping in the wheel

is there a way to solve this problem without having to duplicate/make fake ammo? the guy seem to be busy recently and i want to make patch for him

also good opoturnity to learn something

[slow bolt]

Guess

and then adjust to figure it out

Enable debug and you dont need to restart the game to see the changes

[fair canopy]

The ammo should have a regular and _bad entry, and then in the ammo list in the weapon ltx the ammo should be normal, _bad, _verybad for each ammo type the weapon uses

[sweet fable]

so duplicate it is then

[slow bolt]

You cant have a duplicate section

game will crash before loading even

[sweet fable]

i mean

duplicate as making new bad and verybad ammo with the exact same stats as the original one

[fair canopy]

You don't need verybad, just bad

[shadow hull]

Anyone able to help with this?

[naive snow]

Find where the xml option to enable the repair/menu of guns points to. Find the repair option from there and search via notepad++ in your virtualized anomaly folder to find which script removes repairs

[shadow hull]

Sorry, I don't think I understand exactly what I'm looking for.

[naive snow]

Find where the button for gun repair is what function it points to. A similar function should exist for the armors

[shadow hull]

Is this in the st_dialogs.xml
<string id="st_mechanic_dialog_init">
<text>My equipment needs some tweaking. %c[d_orange][Tutorial]</text>
or am I looking in the wrong one?

[naive snow]

That's the new one, where mecanics show you a tutorial instead of the repair menu. Use this as a basis to reverse engineer for armors
https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1179484733764276234

[shadow hull]

The one I posted is from the same zip.

[naive snow]

You're not looking at the right file, the [Tutorial] should be enough of a clue

[shadow hull]

So what about this from dialogs.xml
<dialog id="dm_tech_repair">
<precondition>inventory_upgrades.has_repair_info</precondition>
<init_func>dialog_manager.dm_init_dynamic_repair_dialog</init_func>
</dialog>
Does that seem more likely?

[shadow hull]

My bad, you are right I pulled the wrong one.

<string id="st_mechanic_dialog_init">
<text>My equipment needs some tweaking. %c[d_orange][Repair/Modification]</text>
</string>

[shadow hull]

Anyone else able to assist by chance?

[shadow hull]

I still haven't solved my issue.

[woven obsidian]

can relate

life is tough, many of my issues still havent been solved

[low spindle]

Hello all,

How do you write items in ltx for reduced "charges" (such as spawning a medkit in an inventory instead of full uses) that anomaly recognizes? An example would be the loot tables for stalkers in which the items on their corpse are rarely full?

Ty in advance!

[cunning wigeon]

Okay this is like the fourth time I am asking this look all I want to know if I did something wrong because I can replace the audio of the desert eagle at all so please help me

[wild whale]

can someone suggest a good free upscale tool for textures?

[stable vault]

Is that the steppe eagle? It's notoriously buggy and crash prone in general I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole

[fair canopy]

You're asking about crashes in the wrong channel first off. And the one that crashes doesn't drop outside of debug anyway. It's missing meshes

[sweet fable]

To be fair the stepper eagle was working fine with GAMMA for a long time before Gunslinger Deagle become a thing and Grok adopted it to GAMMA. Now it's just buggy due to a lot of overlap

[sweet fable]

Btw Andtheherois,
Do you know what file or script that add the annoying prefix on bad ammo?
I posted example in #1204945464810536980 and I have been searching for it for hours

[simple scaffold]

Quick guess: utils_item.script

[cunning wigeon]

Okay well people told me to talk about it in here

[cunning wigeon]

Okay so which deagles should I change the sound off?

since I tried without deagle and nothing worked

Like nothing changed

[stable vault]

The deagle sounds are in the mod "342- Desert Eagle Gunslinger Port - Dizmok & Pieuvre" so probably start there

[cunning wigeon]

Okay well I tried without the desert eagle folder and just with deagle let’s see if it will crash

[cunning wigeon]

Hey is this a problem that the lightning is gray?

[simple scaffold]

ahhh, ui_item

https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata%2Fscripts%2Fui_item.script#L227

[sweet fable]

wowe

[stable vault]

Nah its fine if you double click the mod and check the filetree all the files are there

[cunning wigeon]

Yeah eh uhhh no sound is changed

Like it sounds all the same

[stable vault]

Are you just replacing the audio file?

[cunning wigeon]

No I am using just using the mod file I have shared with this c hat

[sweet fable]

if you relacing audio output

[cunning wigeon]

like I want to make it in to a mod

[stable vault]

Wait I just checked the sound file are in GAMMA large files not that mod my bad

[sweet fable]

then you need to find the mod that tweak it

for example: Weapons and Sound Tweak for Gamma

or w.e related

[cunning wigeon]

so can anyone help me figure it out why my mod doesn’t replace the audio?

[stable vault]

GAMMA\mods\G.A.M.M.A. Large Files\gamedata\sounds\weapons\deagle

Those are the sound files used

[sweet fable]

also check that if your mod doesnt overwrite original file

pathing need to be changed

[cunning wigeon]

Okay it doesn’t sound like the one that is shooting

[stable vault]

Those are the files that are winning the conflicts, I would suggest creating a custom mod with your sound files in it and put it at the highest priority to make sure it's overwriting everything, you shouldnt just be editing existing mods if you can avoid it

[cunning wigeon]

I did

[stable vault]

Are you sure you gamma is installed correctly? These are the files I have

[cunning wigeon]

No mine just contain the shooting sound

The custom mod that is

[stable vault]

I dunno seems like theres something wrong with your gamma install if you are missing a bunch of files

[cunning wigeon]

Here is the gamma large files desert eagle sound folder

[cunning wigeon]

So what am I doing wrong?

Hmm what about dark signal audio pack

[stable vault]

I would suggest reinstalling gamma, you are missing files that should be there by default. I dont know what went wrong tbh

[cunning wigeon]

Uh what?

[fair canopy]

Which prefix?

[stable vault]

There's something wrong with your gamma install, you are missing files that should be there by default. I would suggest reinstalling, something is clearly wrong.

[cunning wigeon]

Uh okay?

[sweet fable]

if you add new ammo into bad and verybad, the game will automatically assign the world "Old" before the actual ammo name

[stable vault]

You think its normal that you are missing a bunch of files that should be there? Okay good luck to you

[cunning wigeon]

I didn’t think there was any missing files geez man

[stable vault]

Ive just told you that like twice

[sweet fable]

when you installing GAMMA

if the CMD output a lot of error

then it's corrupted and your files are missing

people seem to ignore this problem somehow

[cunning wigeon]

Before you said that

[cunning wigeon]

Okay and how do I make it so it doesn’t do that

[stable vault]

Wait Im confused so you Do have the files? I think i misread your screenshots

[cunning wigeon]

I think I have the files of gamma large files

but let’s try reinstalling again for safe measures

idk how to do it so I will just install gamma again

in a new folder

[sweet fable]

if you got an error about Gamma Large File (most common) or w.e, you have to ask in #🔨base-gamma-support or #🤖bot-commands to get the manual link for them

[cunning wigeon]

uh okay?

[sweet fable]

keep reinstalling will just asking for moddb to block u

so that's the safer option

[stable vault]

Can you upload the sound file you are trying to use and I'll test it for you

[cunning wigeon]

Okay so how do I reinstall the gamma?

[cunning wigeon]

Dude you serious

fine

[stable vault]

Dont worry about reinstalling gamma, I think I was wrong you have the files, sorry think theres a bit of a language barrier here

[cunning wigeon]

here you go this is the file i am trying to use

So?

[stable vault]

Ok so I have no idea whats going on but the game doesnt use any of those sound files, the sound file it's actually using is here "GAMMA\mods\274- Dark Signal Audio Pack - Shrike\gamedata\Sounds\weapons_gunfire\stereo\deagle"

[cunning wigeon]

yeah no shit I mentioned it earlier but you ignored it

[stable vault]

Because the weapon LTX doesn't reference that file at all

These are the files you need to overwrite

The weapon ltx references this for the sound " snd_shoot = weapons\deagle\de_shoot"

Hence the confusion

[cunning wigeon]

Okay?

[stable vault]

Here you go install this and it will use your audio

tested and working

I'm just as confused as you are as to why it uses audio it doesn't actually reference at all But it works so

[cunning wigeon]

uh okay

[heavy python]

did someone know how to reposition laser attachment point in ltx files ?

[naive snow]

You can't. You need to edit the model itself

[cunning wigeon]

hey so how do i make the recoil on a weapon becomes like lesser when you crouch and next to none when you prone?

[naive snow]

That's already how the Handling parameter of the weapon works. It reduces sway when crouched.

[cunning wigeon]

okay how do i do that in the weapon.itx file?

like increase the handling

[naive snow]

It's already a weapon stat per-gun

[cunning wigeon]

yeah but how do i increase the handling of the gun?

[naive snow]

Change the dispersion and other stats releated to aiming to your liking

[cunning wigeon]

uhhh isnt dispersion related to recoil?

[naive snow]

or alternatively use the in the weapon sway mod the Hold Breath key

[cunning wigeon]

no i want to decrease the recoil for a weapon when only crouching or proning

like have normal recoil for the gun but very decreased recoil when firing from crouch

because certain weapons have bipods and if you know about how bipods works well i want to make it work in the game

[naive snow]

You'd probably have to make a new script to hijack the engine values for crouching dunno

[cunning wigeon]

aw man so there isnt anything i can do in the weapon.itx file?

[naive snow]

Nah

[cunning wigeon]

have anyone tried making this work before?

like can you check?

[naive snow]

I might be wrong, check the modding anomaly book

[cunning wigeon]

modding anomaly book?

what the hell is that?

[cunning wigeon]

oh thanks

[cunning wigeon]

no it doesnt say anything about crouching reduced recoil or bipod

so yeah which is kinda lame

[naive snow]

So yeah there's nothing in the LTX to control that then

[cunning wigeon]

like i have this mg42 and it has a bipod and i want to have it no recoil when proning like damn man

[naive snow]

Actually I thnk the weapon sway mod already has everything you're looking for

[cunning wigeon]

i dont know

[naive snow]

Just increase the crouch power or prone power

[cunning wigeon]

yeah but can i disable the sway?

[naive snow]

Set the low crouch power to 0 for 0 sway when proning

There's also a mounted weapon feature

[cunning wigeon]

hmm interesting

[cunning wigeon]

dude i tried the mod and it doesnt reduce recoil

[naive snow]

The mod is called weapon sway, it doesn't do recoil

[cunning wigeon]

okay eh look i was looking for a mod that reduces recoil when you crouch or prone alright

so why did you mention this mod to me?

if it doesnt fix my original problem?

[random fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/roman-are-you-sleeping-niko-bellic-niko-gta4-roman-bellic-are-you-sleeping-gif-26668251

[naive snow]

I told you to check it out, if it might be a solution

[fair canopy]

[naive snow]

GBOOBS might be another solution

Pls dad no

[cunning wigeon]

gboobs?

[naive snow]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/gboobs-enhanced-recoil-revised

look does it reduce recoil when crouching?

[fair canopy]

How DARE you attempt to help him

[cunning wigeon]

nonononono

not enhanced recoil please

[naive snow]

Well

[random fulcrum]

jesus christ what a dense ass motherfucker

[naive snow]

Pick your fucking poison buddy or reverse engineer how the recoil reduction is done

[cunning wigeon]

sorry eh thanks anyways for trying to help me

even though it didnt really help i still am happy that you helped me so thank you

[naive snow]

Either create a new script and emulate this behavior or commission someone to make a mod that does it per-weapon

[cunning wigeon]

okay thanks

also sorry for being annoying

[slow bolt]

There is, but he wants so many things i doubt he will do it

[naive snow]

There is huh? Didn't know we had modifiers for player movement

[slow bolt]

Recoil can be crontrolled in the LTX is what i mean, so there should be a logical way of reducing it when prone

With a script

All i can say - i saw this dude for a week in #🔨modded-gamma-support and #╙🖇mods-making-discussion and it seems the vasyanmodding never ends

[naive snow]

Yeah the GBOOBS does exactly that with the snip I posted. Should be a simple matter to strip out that part and apply it as a seperate script

[stable vault]

I just helped this guy and fixed his problem with the deagle sound and didn't get so much as a thankyou, last time I make that mistake

[naive snow]

Helping is an ungrateful job, yellow names are masochists

[slow bolt]

"No"

[cunning wigeon]

dude i am sorry for my behavior okay im sorry

i am trying to learn alright

so i am sorry if i am annoying okay

[cunning wigeon]

sorry i forgot

thank you for helping me i am already using the folder you sent me to make other weapon audio files

sorry for being an asshole

[cunning wigeon]

also thank you for your help also

anyways i am tired right now and i got to get off so have a good day

[naive forge]

How would i go about adding this mod #1168998049113178122 message into the loadout of certain factions high tier npcs? I was trying to figure out the npc_loadout.ltx but i dont know what the values after the item should be/what they mean. I also have no clue if i set this up correctly or if i need to change the filename/subsection of the npcs/anything else about it really. First time making a loadout.ltx from scratch instead of just adding to one and copy pasting values. Could use some help here lol

[naive snow]

Just take a look at basic entries like the freon modules, body coolers or other one time use items like bandages or equipment if there's any

actually scratch that if you want to add items to dead bodies just use a DLTX for mod_death, you can add items easier per-faction and simply specify the drop chance instead

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/skills-expansion-for-anomaly-skill-system Hello Firends, just wanted to ask if this mod is compatible/ could be added into GAMMA sometime

[slow bolt]

yes

[random fulcrum]

yes and no

but yes it works and doesn't crash

[nimble vigil]

so no add ? :(

[slow bolt]

add

[random fulcrum]

it works and doesn't crash

[naive forge]

thanks man ill give that a try

[hard nest]

I use a translator, so there may be errors. I have a question, is it possible to change the common_stock of merchants in presets? I want to remove NATO calibers from the sale of the Warsaw Pact countries and remove the Warsaw Pact calibers from NATO

[naive snow]

But that's already the case. You have nato vendors that only sell nato caliber and attachments. Same with WP

[hard nest]

I almost managed to do it, but the mercenaries still have the calibres of the Warsaw Pact countries

9x39, 9x18, 5.45x39, 12,7x55 and 7,62x54

in the amount of 1-2 packs of cartridges

Only mercenaries have this problem

I was able to remove unsuitable calibers from the other groups

I would be very grateful to receive a suitable answer

[naive snow]

You did edit out the Trade_mercenary_basic.ltx ?

[hard nest]

yes

I think it's all about common stock

i cant find this

I suppose it's in the scripts somewhere, but I haven't found anything like it.

[naive forge]

would this work? sorry its the first time like i said

[naive snow]

you need to name the actual file properly, something like mod_death_generic_TheNameOfYourMod

Place it under configs/items/settings

You use ![killer_Legend] to write an existing section

Look at the pinned anomaly mod book for the syntax of DLTX files

[naive forge]

thank you for the help man

[cunning isle]

I need some help guys, I want to bring back the option to repair armor at Technicians like in vanilla Anomaly
I already did something similar with this mod https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1179484733764276234
Now I'm interested in the possibility to repair armor fully by paying money to them

What could be the script that i need to modify in order to achive this

[slow bolt]

The guy asking you asked the same question here and got sent to you

[cunning isle]

for fucks sake

[naive snow]

It's the great circle of mod-making

[surreal gust]

weird i was getting an item section missing

must be from other mods

theres no way this is going to work for gamma because all.spawn

[ionic zenith]

Hoi @sage mortar
You around?

[simple scaffold]

what?

[slow bolt]

wuh?

[cunning wigeon]

nvm

[sage mortar]

Sup?

[potent delta]

Anybody happen to have the item class name for things like the eotech sight and such? Like WP_SCOPE is for the couple of default scopes, WP_SILEN for the suppressors, etc. I need to know that for the BaS scopes and the tacticool scopes n' stuff.

And maybe the item class for armors and helmets as well.

Okay, I got the armors bit that I needed.

o_light
o_medium
o_heavy
o_exo
o_helmet
o_sci```

This is for adding things to the tracker for the mod "The Collector".

x_itm_basickit
x_itm_advancedkit
x_itm_expertkit
Those are the 3 tool kits. What are the names for the other kits? Gunsmithing, drug-making, and artifact melter?

Looks like it might just be itm_expertkit and etc.

[ionic zenith]

The 2D scope patch for 21:9 aspect ratio, has a bit of a funky effect with binoculars specifically

Do you think you could fix it?

How do you open an .anm file?

[slow bolt]

Ultrawide bois must suffer

[low spindle]

Hello all,

Can someone please explain how to have a limited amount of charges for an item in a container? (As in how to write the item in an .ltx file)
For example, a single charge of a medkit in a package instead of 2?

Thank you!

[cunning wigeon]

okay so i dont know how to make a soundfile path for weapon_sounds.itx because i everytime i try with a specific weapon using a custom weapon sound group that i created well it is just silent no weapon firing sound

what am i doing wrong?

[sharp mirage]

Is there a guide on how to make new animations, cus I want to add one of my own into a game but idk what to do and where to start

I want to make a simple tourniquet use anim

[cunning wigeon]

so if anyone has the time can they help me?

the sound group is wpn_stg44

[sage mortar]

Could you check if this one's okay? (put in: gamedata/configs/ui)

[cunning wigeon]

hey @sage mortar sorry to bother you but would you kindly please help me?

[ionic zenith]

Sure... Once i find a 21:9 victim

[sage mortar]

Dude same... I don't have a 21:9 monitor.

[sage mortar]

I'm not exactly a sound expert my guy.

[cunning wigeon]

oh sorry dude

[rocky egret]

Hello, I have this problem and I already tried deleting that code from the xml file. Problem is the game kept crashing (wanted the mod to stop changing binoc because vanilla was ok)

[sharp mirage]

.

[rocky egret]

ill try with this one

[sage mortar]

You mean the binos?

[rocky egret]

yes

[ionic zenith]

Post the picture of the result later

[rocky egret]

Mostly fixed, still has some black boxes on the side but atleast theres no more gap and the game doesnt crash

[cunning wigeon]

oh thats nice 🙂

[rocky egret]

not very obvious in the ss but ingame with a higher gamma/brightness it becomes more apparent

[sage mortar]

Yea, that's how the texture was made...

[rocky egret]

I see, in any case this fixes my problem, thank you all for the help

[ionic zenith]

Welp
Time to update the moddb mod
(make sure moddb actually updates it tho, last time gmtop updated... It updated without the files and botched an entire install with 40gb+ dumped into another mod folder )

[cunning wigeon]

sorry 😦

i just wanted help

[ionic zenith]

I don't do modding, sorry
Wait for someone who knows how audio stuff works

[cunning wigeon]

oh okay

[potent delta]

Ahah. I have found out how to answer my own questions.

[surreal gust]

The mod uses its own all.spawn file

[potent delta]

itm_artefactskit - Artefact Melter
itm_ammokit - Gunsmithing Tools
itm_drugkit - Drug-making Kit
itm_basickit - Basic Tools
itm_advancedkit - Advanced Tools
itm_expertkit - Expert Tools

[surreal gust]

The mod has its own all.spawn file which most likely doesn't work for gamma

[slow bolt]

Its a skills mod

[surreal gust]

Oh sheet

Didnt realize that

I thought bro was talking about mlr location pack

I was busy porting the alternative fake start level to stcop and oxr gunslinger

yohjimane wanted a new test level

[soft patio]

Anyone know what's causing the Ghillie overhaul mod to remove ammo stats instead of looking like how they're supposed to look like here

[fair canopy]

Take a look at the files and check the conflicts

Might be an xml getting overwritten

[naive snow]

There's more people making actual art in the Anomaly discord the Modding-Art channel, they could have decent tutorials. The gist of animating for Xray is saving out the motions into an OGF file format using Blender and the Pavel Blend xray addon for 3.6. Since it's tourniquet you want you probably won't need different states of animations like pulling it out or storing it. You can take a look at how the bandages animations are done with the BHSO mod is done in https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1137162280816099450

[potent delta]

Animating a touniquet would be neat. I'd imagine slipping it as a loop up your arm, then yanking it tight would suffice. About the same speed as the current bandage animation, just different.

That being said, could use an animation for the small field kit as well.

[naive snow]

If I'm not mistaken I think Mirowell is working on a surgical kit animation at the moment, next update is going to be sweet

[slow bolt]

Nope. I am not an animator sadly.
I talked with lizzardman(Headgear and outfit animations chad) and he might do it at some point maybe

[naive snow]

Was the rigged surgical kit from eft?

[slow bolt]

Extracted,yes

Meaning i can extract models with textures. Even with the animations and rigs

(no, you cant use the existing tarkov anims with stalker)

[naive snow]

I reckon you could use the existing animation to transfer bake the bones position for elbows and wrists at least

Simple location and rotation constraints, bake the keys

[slow bolt]

Well that is what i got from the god himself, lizzardman.
I really dont know much at all about 3d animating

[celest forge]

You could retarget them

that's what BaS did

[slow bolt]

The possibilities are infinite, and my skill is very much not

[karmic thicket]

Hypothetically would it be simple to make a mod that uses the voiced actor framework but with different voices?

I would like to make repacks to use Stalker NPC voices (depending on faction) but as I don't speak Russian I don't actually know what lines say what and therefore don't know which lines would fit.

[fair canopy]

You'd probably only need to overwrite the files with what you want them to play

[karmic thicket]

That's the idea but I'd have to actually know what the lines say to do it properly.

Because otherwise for all I know the NPC is aggressively saying hello when I want a line for "enemy down" or whatever

Maybe if I had someone who knew Russian help me... don't know.

[celest forge]

Lucky for you

this community is full of em

[karmic thicket]

Mmm, yeah. I suppose I'll ask when I feel like working on it/when I'm at my computer.

I wouldn't even need specific translations, just something like lines split into what context they'd fit in. Like what lines would fit for killing an enemy, reloading, etc

[slow bolt]

Easy

[karmic thicket]

Yeah it seems like the biggest issue is that I just don't speak Russian

[slow bolt]

Like Juan said: "this community is full of em"
For example i speak Russian natively

[karmic thicket]

Would you mind giving me a hand when you have time, in that case?

[slow bolt]

Sure

[karmic thicket]

Amazing, lemme DM you what I'll need.

[celest forge]

He charges in robux, beware

[surreal gust]

Alright.

I pretty much fixed the last broken fog emitter (it's more like a remake)

almost done

just some polish left

occlusions have been added by me

[sage mortar]

Pretty sure the patch was already there before you sent that message.

[ionic zenith]

I was... Delayed

[surreal gust]

Fixed the fourth fog emitter

thankfully.

mod is now fully finished

@undone lily fixed the final fog emitter.

Now I can focus on other mods

[surreal gust]

final product

[slow bolt]

Does someone here know how to parse the XML for ui_main_menu to extract the tracks played in the menu?

Anomaly doesnt play main menu music when you press ESC and i wanna change that. So XML would grab whatever music plays in the main menu and play that when pressing ESC(modded main menu), or playing vanilla music already loaded if it is vanilla anomaly

Already have a script EGUI uses to play main menu music in the ESC menu(its very simple), but i need the above to make it more universal

[slow bolt]

Solved the above with Raven's help

[ember niche]

I know there's GI with faux RT, to not explode rigs.
What about HDR or Real Ray Tracing in game?
Has anyone added a tiny demo showing off what could be?

nVidia demo's RTX on Morrowind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUX3u1iD0jM
nVidia adds HDR for all games: https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-app-beta-release/

[naive snow]

It only works with fixed pipeline engines. It's not compatible with shader based ones like xray

[surreal gust]

openxray exits for that

rtx remix is working on openxray

you can install it but it's nowehere near finished

expect to have lots of bugs

xray uses lightmaps for it's locations

[hoary osprey]

I have a question. Is it possible to set the need for eating and drinking somehow? To increase or decrease? Does it depend on the selected game level before starting?

[surreal gust]

fake start in call of pripyat

yohjimane wanted this test level for his project so i decompiled this map

and compiled it again for him

[vale knot]

Awesome

[simple scaffold]

food is in actor.ltx and is satiety_v

thirst you can set in the difficulty settings one you have a save loaded.

[hoary osprey]

thanks

[surreal gust]

Adjusted the third fog emitter

now it looks better

[civic finch]

Guys, do you know why my texture is this dark:

but in game it looks really bright like this:

It's the bump map? shaders or something?

my gamma and brightness is at 1.0 each.

[surreal gust]

Bro what texture

On the AEK?

[civic finch]

yes

[vale knot]

Normal map's specular i assume

Or the .thm's material?

But if the furniture stays dark and its part of same texture i imagine its the specular

[civic finch]

Shit, and I don't have the slightest idea how those works.

Such a shame, I want to improve the AEK971 looks. But I'm not a pro at this.

[vale knot]

i believe lunatic made a video how to work stalker bumps

[vale knot]

https://youtu.be/HwTYYH5zLjo?si=X4LPO8PowVUVrCJY&t=425

around 7 min for textures

[civic finch]

I think I need Photoshop

[vale knot]

you can do everything in gimp or sumn, just method about it might be different

dont buy photoshop tho

wink

[civic finch]

What about just using the curve tool in paint.NET to edit the values of just one of the color channels?

I mean, I just need to make it darker here and there, nothing else like creating new details.

[vale knot]

ik its long but this really is the most comprehensive guide

[naive snow]

Probably because you're saving/not saving with gamma correction your dds

The reason why it looks so bright is as they previously mentioned your specular map, the red channel. It defines how "bright" a material looks. White means the models is kind of shiny and bright. Dark means more a mate and rough look

You can probably edit via curves the red channel in your software

[surreal gust]

dust 2 real

[cunning haven]

where do i change the damage and br of hydroshock? can someone please point me in the right direction

[cunning haven]

i want to reduce BR of hydro to 0 and damage to 54. what values do i have to change here?

[fair canopy]

You playing tarkov?

Change kap and khit

[cunning haven]

I used to play tarkov, why?

[cunning haven]

changed it but the ingame discription still says BR 1 and dmg 69

[vale knot]

Description isnt tied to actual value

[cunning haven]

ahh ok

[vale knot]

Its just text in a seperate xml file

[cunning haven]

kk

thx

so what k hit value would be 54dmg?

and what Kap would be BR=0

[elfin mason]

As myself and 4 others have said now, the values in the ammo tooltips etc are just static files and are basically meaningless, as oflin said you need to turn on the damage numbers in the terminal and keep adjusting the k_hit/k_ap values till you get the results you want

[tribal bramble]

Hello, is there a place to get all weapon and armor IDs in order to change loadouts? Should i just launch the game in debug and get the ID through the game?

[cerulean mantle]

@crisp oxide Hello. I have problem to report regarding MagsRedux (GAMMA's) and Outfit Animations.

[crisp oxide]

@cerulean mantle heyo
Sure

What happened?

[celest forge]

Debug is probably the easiest place to get em yeah

[cerulean mantle]

When I load Outfit Animations after MagsRedux, nothing happens. When I tried to load a magazine, it crashed with:
||FATAL ERROR

[error]Expression : <no expression>
[error]Function : CScriptEngine::lua_pcall_failed
[error]File : D:\a\xray-monolith\xray-monolith\src\xrServerEntities\script_engine.cpp
[error]Line : 262
[error]Description : fatal error

LUA error: ...edata\scripts\zzzz_ui_inventory_outfit_animations.script:18: attempt to call global 'IsBackpack' (a nil value)

Check log for details||

I tried loading Outfit Animations before MagsRedux, it worked! But the crash on loading up magazine still persisted.

[tribal bramble]

I figured it would be the easiest, thanks anyways👌

[surreal gust]

did you try turning off crash saves?

[crisp oxide]

@cerulean mantle ow
Try reinstall mod without patches

[surreal gust]

turning them off usually gives out the true error

[cerulean mantle]

How can I do that?

[surreal gust]

in the console type "crash_save off"

[cerulean mantle]

Everything works as expected. No need to load before MagsRedux to work.

Thank you :D

[crisp oxide]

[sinful quest]

Hey! I'm trying to disable drag n drop weapon part replacement and i managed to do it by commenting callback registering in arti's original file (arti_jamming.script) yet for some reason when i'm trying to call UnregisterScriptCallback on the same callback through monkeypatch the game crashes on world loading. I've reached my goal eventually by ovewriting arti_jamming.try_replace_part() to do nothing, but i still wanna to do it the right way just so it look cleaner. If someone could help i would be very grateful
