Not yet, will do 🙂

The scope already exists in the game, many warsaw pact guns already use it (like the SVD).

[fair canopy]

https://youtu.be/u8crq79zMfs?si=NaJ8LEVbSIkQU1tk

It's not hard, it's just tedious. Though I've streamlined the method for myself in 3d Shader scopes

[proven creek]

Oh, interesting, might give it a try myself then

[fair canopy]

You can add new scope sections to a gun via dltx without touching the main ltx

[muted marten]

Are there any addons that change weapon parts icon similar to gamma ones?

[regal bolt]

Any ideas on that?

[misty mulch]

wdym? you want to use the icons from gamma in some other modpack?

gamma just uses cr3pis icon pack

[fair canopy]

Old crepis

[muted marten]

Ahh, it's old version. I use most recent version that doesn't has that

[worthy fiber]

is it safe to edit actor bone damage multipliers?
as i wrote above headshot dmg multiplier doesnt look like 1.0 coefficient that is written in actor.ltx

[celest forge]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-it-yes-thats-it-that-right-there-omg-that-thats-what-i-mean-gif-17579879

[misty mulch]

oh yeah u right. check the various G.A.M.M.A. Icon mods

[vale knot]

there is a reanim for it which is good i use it

i added it and replaced every loadout listing of the raptr with the usas

[open oasis]

based RAPTR hater

[dull dust]

as Merc, are Loners no longer hostile after doing the BS?

[random fulcrum]

usas uggy bad poopoo let's replace it with the same exact gun but with an alien makeover

[brave aspen]

What is the name of the ghillie suit body texture from the 236 SWM mod?

[open oasis]

wrong channel

[naive snow]

You issue here mostly seems to be the transparency blend mode of the particle and the light parameters to be super bright and not inside of the artifact

[regal bolt]

Is that fixable?

Like. How do I at least toneit down a notch?

[naive snow]

Find the artifact descriptor, wherever that's setup, change the lines for the brightness of the light. Otherwise you have to mess about in shader files

[glacial nebula]

Anyone know if it possible to revert the name changes for the gun repair kits? I prefer the old names rather than just A B C and D.

[regal bolt]

And what is the Artifact Descriptor?

Or how do I find it more like

Do I just look for anything in the scripts with name artifacts in it or?

[naive snow]

Search via a notepad++ or a setup visual studio for the debug name of the artifact

[regal bolt]

And do that for every artifact?

[naive snow]

Just fix the ones you have an issue with to reduce their lights

[regal bolt]

Thats all of them tho

QwQ

All besides the perkifacts which don't have the extra effects

[naive snow]

You mean the particle effect?

Particles you have to go through the sdk for the particle editor and honestly, fuck that

[regal bolt]

Ehhh. Well then

[naive snow]

You can either toggle the particle effect off entirely and base yourself around the light parameters of perkifacts to do something similar for base artifact

These all point to the same files, you get the flags of the effect via the .pg

The .pe file describes the effects that are applied to the particle, plus the shader and the texture used

You could change that shader I guess to something that composites better ontop of a bright light

[regal bolt]

Me not understanding half of what you just said thinking I'll justlower the values you marked and work around it until I like it

[open oasis]

it really do b like dat

[naive snow]

Pretty much. Copy the values for range from the perkifacts

[regal bolt]

What if they don't have these parameters? (Just asking. Didn't look in there yet)

You know. They only have the ambient light. No particles

Actually. Maybe instead of fucking around with this I'll just disable the particles active when the artifacts are out, but not the initial cloud that shows up

[random fulcrum]

if they have no particles attached then they don't show any particles

[regal bolt]

Yeah. Do perkifacts have particles shown momo? Ever saw them?

I for sure didn't

[random fulcrum]

if they don't show particles then they don't have them

[regal bolt]

Also if I nuke that whole script section will the artifacts go back to standard anomaly displaying or will it actually break them?

The cinematicVFX artifacts only of course

[naive snow]

You'll probably break every artifact

A lot of DLTX look up and change those base artifact so you can't really kill the whole thing

[regal bolt]

Damn...

[lunar nimbus]

yeah i agree

[worthy fiber]

[random fulcrum]

it used to be 2x during the primordial soup

idr when was the multiplier removed but having the clause still there is goofy

[worthy fiber]

is it miltihit fix for actor?
looks a bit strange coz it looks like there is a chance to get hit by mutant and bullet in the same frame. so zero damage from mutant or bullet

[slow bolt]

it prevents dying from one hit, or rather dying in a very short time frame

last time i looked at it, anyway

[worthy fiber]

more like multihit fix
there is another stuff for preventing from one hit dying
if you have >65% hp and damage > 65% hp then dmg = 10% only

[random fulcrum]

it's a kinda poor and far from airtight attempt at a multihit fix

[slow bolt]

Story of gamma

[open oasis]

momo now has a disciple attempting to understand how damage works 🙏

[worthy fiber]

i dont see other if-statements about this
so if you have hp more than 65% you will never fall from one shot. kinda funny - sniper rifles nerf for npc

[random fulcrum]

yeah it's kinda poop as it only covers a singular damage instance instead of being time based

and knowing that 800rpm is considered slow in gamma

the health gate VERY rarely gets to play an important role

also bullet multihits

given it's around 2 frames of invulnerability

i had a far from airtight multihit fix back in the day when i was still wetting my toes with lua and stalker modding as a whole

and in testing anything below 4 frames could lead to some bullets slipping by

nowadays there's tech (that i asked for) to actually and fully prevent bullet multihits from happening at all period

[iron yoke]

By modding is it possible to Put DLSS in GAMMA ?

[worthy fiber]

does it mean that actordamagebalancer rough multihit fix should be disabled for fire_wound damage type since there is better option prevents it?

[spice pilot]

A question has arisen. Here's how to intercept the start of a certain animation and play a certain sound?.. For example, animation from the mod https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/photo-of-a-loved-one-animated-dltx
Then an additional question, how to actually find out some of her IDs in order to intercept...

[vale knot]

Any rtx card is more than enough graphical horsepower for the game
Why?

[half dragon]

Question: I understand that the Saiga-12 has issues with it's sprinting animation, and that the mos common fix is to just lower your weapon...
Why has nobody just changed it so that it just straight up uses the lowered sprinting animation?

[tawny stream]

No.

[fair canopy]

Because it doesn't work like that

You need to modify the animations themselves.

[lunar nimbus]

this is very bad for fire_wound

sometimes fire_wound hits are divided into 2 hits, but do damage as 1

not sure for what reason but this will just decrease some hits by 60%

sec i even reported it somewhere

[worthy fiber]

is it the same bullet? or something other thing that makes crazy?
i checked out actual multihit fix based on bullet_id so if it is it prevents this situation

[lunar nimbus]

same bullet

maybe hits two bones at once and gets divided idk, i somehow forgot to test it

[worthy fiber]

so if we bypass engine stuff and do script calculations for actor dmg (based on bones and other stuff related to it) and apply multihit fix then we are fine
i hope it will work

[worthy fiber]

am i right that there are two working miltihit fixes at once - "golden rule" and rough actordamagebalancer multihit fix?
if they are* does it mean that it skips some frames anyway? so to fix skipping frames one of the solutions is splitting the function into two - fire_wound dmg handler (for using "golden rule" only) and other dmgs handler?

[random fulcrum]

yeah if the better option was implemente into gamma i don't see why noy

that fix you're talking about is also not airtight but it's better somewhat

having the two run together does minimize multihits a lot but alas they still happen

[lunar nimbus]

not if its gonna be still based on s_hit.power

[young lion]

sup guys anyone knows how to change a permanent portrait, the one which is showed if "portrait depend on armor" is off?

[static nebula]

doesn't have issues, the animations just suck
you could make it use lowered weapon sprint anims but the saiga animations also have transition animations for sprinting so you would have to go in and remove those to not have issues

if my lazy ass doesn't lose motivation and scrap it maybe ill just go ahead and completely redo the saiga reanim

[dusty garden]

anyone know a way to implement DLSS or FSR frame gen mod for gamma? that would be really neat

i know some of the modded dlss dll files can implement frame gen and dlss in other games, but i believe in game DLSS support is needed for it function. could be wrong tho

[quartz anchor]

Question - I am trying to add a USP march (the stainless steel slide USP) to my game that shoots 10mm. I have the files for 10mm and the USP 45 nimble. But i also use mags redux, as such i do not know if i need to copy and paste a new magazine or if there is somthing other than changing the ammo the pistol takes.

I am trying to copy and paste another USP nimble and edit that to take 10mm, not overwriting the existing one. Love the animation and look of the USP45 but i want it in 10mm. any help would be greatly appreciated, please and thankyou

[slow bolt]

bruh

lvutner would crucify you

[sour salmon]

[surreal gust]

Implement global illumination, that's more important than your gamma.

[tall rampart]

hello again. Again i ask if anyone knows where the files that handle Sidorovich/Spores sale of stashes are. If anyone knows, would be a blessing if you could enlighten me, would save my dyslexic behind a lot of time

[sour salmon]

Multi cpu core support is far more necessary than other stuff. But maybe I am wrong

[worthy fiber]

i think nowadays full multithread support is unnecessary since low-end modern cpus (and other computer stuff) have so much single-core performance to handle stalker

[proven creek]

If that was the case, we would be able to have grass in the game

There's so much going on in the world of stalker that a single core can't ever handle

[fair canopy]

There is grass in the game?

[soft burrow]

I made a minimalist hud ui mod

it's just sidhud code edited to show rad, health, stamina, psyhealth bars

but all the bars start empty and invisible and get fuller as you get hurt, tired or insane

a little dot shows at the end of the bars once they are past 50% to indicate if you are getting near to filling them

made this hud to use with sibu ( https://discord.com/channels/456765861953536020/1214867860359487538 )

I'm not making a post in mods-posting because this has lots of compatibility issues

I don't think it works without sota's ui rework, and you also need to disable the stamina bar in zzz_player_injuries.script

so it's a mess

[frail valve]

For frame gen, I use Lossless scaling on Steam, you can also use FSR 1.0, NIS and many more upscaling/render methods

[lyric sentinel]

What is the name of the mod for these icons?

[muted marten]

cr3pis icons

@lyric sentinel

[lyric sentinel]

Thanks🙏🏻

[tawny stream]

Just got updated recently too

[hearty plinth]

poggers

guys how do i make a semiauto gun fullauto in the files?

[random fulcrum]

change fire_modes to -1

or add -1 to that field

[hearty plinth]

Thx

[surreal gust]

r_detail_density = 1
r_detail_radius = 0

these 2 commands fully disable grass

no level files have to be fucked with

in my case they increased gpu util to like 80's or 90's

with grass enabled it's more like 20% or 30% gpu util.

cursed engine

[random fulcrum]

where is the file with the item stat icons located at

can't find it in textures\ui

[worthy fiber]

has anyone ever had a situation when you cant kill lying npc?
i spawn at pripyat to test dmg on haron eidolon and they receive zero damage if they got wounded
script tells me that shit.power >= 50 and skip himself so it should be engine turn
i dont understand

[open oasis]

can Eidolon not only receive damage from the Gauss rifle?

[random fulcrum]

wdym

[slow bolt]

People killed eidolon with a hammer

[random fulcrum]

you want him to only be damageable with the gauss

[open oasis]

huh i guess i've heard a rumor then

never actually made it that far into the game just heard someone say this once which could explain why he's not receiving damage

[random fulcrum]

nah he's just protected by your usual 97.5% damage reduction every npc gets if you don't go through armor

god bless gbo

[worthy fiber]

wtf is going on
they literally cant be killed when lying
i turned gbo back and no problem
but my script skips any script calculations coz shit.power is too much so i dont touch damage related stuff

he is unkillable joys

first lines of code for hit validation is pretty similar to gboobs script so i dont undestand what is going on

im losing my mind

other lying npcs are killable
it is specific stuff of charon and eidolon so it becomes more weird

can someone check it who knows how damage works

[random fulcrum]

damage is just set to exorbitant amounts whenevet an npc is in a wounded state

can't provide a source right now as i'm at uni

could check if npc:wounded() then skip the max power thing

[worthy fiber]

expected it but i dont understand why npc is unkillable if wounded state i dont even touch such stuff
it is only for charon
btw eidolon is killable but shit.power is not increased due to wounded state (or is it feature)
wounded state is true for both
maybe it is related to other mod but dont see such problems in gbo. gbo has adoption for pba but anyway if shit > 50 it skips calculations as mine

[random fulcrum]

maybe some other mod?

[worthy fiber]

i am on vanilla gamma

[random fulcrum]

i think you're developing under gamma rn

ywah

that's what i'm talking about

better develop under anomaly

then adapt to the soup

because it very likely is another mod blocking lethal damage to important characters

[worthy fiber]

anyway i dont undestand why no problems if gbo is on

i checked mods that i turned off (actordamagebalancer gboobs and close quarter combat)
i dont see any related stuff to wounded state of npc

[random fulcrum]

gbo hijacks the entire damage system if you use bullets

that might be why

[worthy fiber]

holy juck i understand why
coz surrender_bonus in gboobs but surrender_bonus is not for surrender only. this variables names confuse me
if npc is wounded or surrendered
then set npc health to 0.0

by default charon is unkillable (in vanilla at least)

[tacit surge]

Guys, how can I make the new scout use the silencer icons that I made separately for the new models?

[worthy fiber]

does it mean that i SHOULD MAKE THE SAME coz in gamma charon is killable
anyway no problems now

[slow bolt]

[tacit surge]

Irrelevant to the question

[celest forge]

Unless you change the icon for the silencer that you assigned to them overall I don't think there's a way

The icon layer thing is tied to the item itself and it can't be changed in a per gun basis like the scope icons can

[tacit surge]

Is there any reason why there are icons with attached silencer for UMP then?

[fair canopy]

I don't think the ump used those silencer icons. Those are rendered

[tacit surge]

It looks like i can either use the icons we have, or add 2 new silencers with new icons for scout with copypaste config from other silencers?

[fair canopy]

Yeah

But then you'd have specific silencers that only go one on gun

[tacit surge]

"Stalker modding"

[ocean harbor]

is there any way to remove the Thompson from starting loadouts? it seems to always be there even when all other items are removed - is it a base Anomaly thing perhaps?

[royal crater]

How do i control what factions own what bases?

[pseudo swan]

did they reduce the amounts of tasks you get each day from the main npcs?

[naive snow]

The dynamic spawns that are baked in the levels

[naive snow]

No, you can get 1 or 2 per NPC, up to a maximum of 4 per NPC concurent

[naive snow]

Make a DLTX that removes it

[naive snow]

Those were pre-icon layering for attachments

[orchid agate]

Yo

I got a question

anyone know where the file for mags redux is that basically puts or removed ammo from magazines in gamma

I remember doing it some time ago but forgot where the file is

nvm I fixed it on my own

[open oasis]

i know nobody cares but just posting an update that this worked and i was able to give the guns batch alt aim mode using this method

[mystic atlas]

Is there a fix floating around for gamma automatically redistributing WPO so i can use other scripts?

[sour salmon]

Can you explain that a lil more, might learn a thing or two

Nvm

Notepad++ rocks

[open oasis]

yeah lol

and then i look for hud] and remove the line from there because it doesn't belong

[sour salmon]

Is \n just pushing the next line below?

[royal crater]

how do i change degration rate on artifacts?

[open oasis]

yeah

[sour salmon]

I’ll write that one down, gonna be useful later

[tawny stream]

Yeah, newline

[soft burrow]

does anyone know where is the script for the radiation poisoning buffer grok added?

it's the thing that stops the poisoning level from increasing for a few seconds when you enter a radiation field

[undone mural]

Does anyone know if there is a mod which makes the ammo selector funtion similar to a weapon wheel in console/controller based games?

[fair canopy]

look up quick action wheel and radial menu

[mystic atlas]

Sent earlier but never got a reply does anybody know of one?

[undone mural]

thank you with jsut a little tweaking it works perfectly

[unreal leaf]

Do you blan on doing a high to low poly bake with these? Because oh boy the polycount on those definitely doesnt look game ready.
They look awesome though, good consistent shading all around :)

[knotty prawn]

https://github.com/Grokitach/Stalker_GAMMA/commit/0e6b56715a25af5f87d6ef42b4dc66bf30267558 I think it's this one

thanks a lot

[unreal dome]

is there a mod for quick swapping scopes for instance on ak74M?

[celest forge]

"Quick swapping"?

[open oasis]

i assume swapping scoped with a hotkey without having to go through the inventory

[hardy hound]

this old addon:
https://github.com/Ishmaeel/toggle-scope

or more recent you have qaw:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/quick-action-wheel

[bronze harness]

Yes those models are for baking

[sour salmon]

I need a get rid of toggle scope and suppressor, that way I can utilize the keys for something else

My key mapping is a mess lmao

Gonna start writing them down

[ancient basalt]

how do I return the sr 25 sub-barrel?

[peak cave]

Hey so I was directed here just to ask a question

Not really a 'mod' but I'm gonna try asking here because I'd probably have more luck but my problem is as follows:

I'm trying to have BaS and a gunslinger merge in the same game, but I don't want teh actual BaS weapons in the debug spawn menu, trader inventories or NPC loadouts, but I want to keeps the assets and attachments for compatability reasons, could anyone help

I can explain more if needed

[brave aspen]

If I want to make a custom water flask texture, do I need to redraw all these reduced textures?

[fluid root]

well you can redraw the biggest and then scale it down to the other sizes

[sacred token]

Well, I don't know what program you are using, but GIMP will generate you the mipmaps afterwards

[surreal gust]

These look like mipmaps

Automatically generates a lower resolution version of the texture to prevent oversharpening

[brave aspen]

Just photoshop with nvidia addon

[slow bolt]

Using adobe products in 2024

[fair canopy]

At least they're free

[brave aspen]

If i can't pay for them, i pirate then

[surreal gust]

I use CS6

@naive snow How do you make custom bounding box shapes for world models?

[surreal gust]

[random fulcrum]

folks anyone familiar with dxml

it filtered me again

and the icons i defined won't show up ingame

[naive snow]

Hmmm good question I guess you'd have to specify the model in the actual edit box drop down or whatever? Might work according to a nomenclature too

[naive snow]

Aren't icons defined in the ltx?

[random fulcrum]

nah i'm talking about stat icons

like in the stat cards

@naive snow

[naive snow]

How are your icons looking ?

[random fulcrum]

in the left image

it's the blank texture

the icons are the ones in ui_actor_sleep_screen.dds

[naive snow]

Are those texture ID already defined somewhere else or base classes?

[random fulcrum]

nah they're new

that's why i'm using dxml

[naive snow]

You're referencing texture ids and x & y positions but you're not defining the textures are you?

[random fulcrum]

the texture the xml i'm editing uses is the dds i mentioned above

[naive snow]

Is your ui_actor_sleep_screen.xml containing the proper definition for the .dds?

What .dds compression format did you use?

[random fulcrum]

i'm not modifying the dds

i'm merely making unused icons in the sheet usable

but alas it didn't work

[naive snow]

Hmmm I'd have to brush up on my dxml syntax hold up

[random fulcrum]

like, according to the dxml introduction in the modded exes github, i did it correctly

idk what's wrong

[random fulcrum]

brother i wrote funciton instead of function jfc

[random fulcrum]

update as they're still not working

even after fixing the typo

[vale knot]

I remember also having trouble assigning texture desc shit with dxml

[random fulcrum]

huh

[naive snow]

Do you have the actual code snippet of your DXML?
Oh I think I might have found your issue tho
The file name of the ui_actor_sleep_screen.xml is actually

<file name="ui\ui_actor_sleep_screen">

Whereas your if statement is looking for ui\textures_descr\ui_actor_sleep_screen.xml

[naive snow]

So unless you moved things around, your file path seems to be wrong, hence the insert breaks

[random fulcrum]

but the file is in that directory

the one that's just ui... is the dds itself

[naive snow]

Is it? Mine from the unpack isn't

Wait I'm retarded

Tho might warrant a try since the <file name="ui\ui_actor_sleep_screen"> is in the actual .xml file itself

[random fulcrum]

that's pointing to the dds file it's reading from

[naive snow]

Welp then I'm out of ideas, following the modding guide book that should in all regards work

[random fulcrum]

yeah that's what feels wrong aobut it

[naive snow]

Could the indent of your local variables be messing up?

The other example I could find from the Paw script and from the modding book all set the text to another line underneath directly

[random fulcrum]

nah tried even putting the whole [[]] thing inside the insert

and nothing either

[naive snow]

Like doing :

local icon_wsway =
[[
<texture id="ui_mas_wp_prop_sway" blah blah blah />
]]

vs doing it

local icon_wsway = [[<texture id="ui_mas_wp_prop_sway" blah blah blah />]]

[random fulcrum]

ah

maybe

gonna try

[naive snow]

Also golden comment in that file from Catspaw

[random fulcrum]

nah that wasn't it either

didn't do the trick

i'm stumped

like it's not strictly necessary for the stats mod update but i'd still like the new stats to have their own icons instead of reusing the old satiety one for 4 different stats

[naive snow]

Could be worth doing that printf message to at least see if you're getting a rejection from not reading the xml file like in the catspaw mod

[random fulcrum]

oh right didn't think of printing at all

[naive snow]

Maybe you could also insert the whole chunk as one big string instead of multiple smaller ones

[random fulcrum]

gojnna try that now

yeah okay so

tried printing the file name as it reads

and it NEVER goes into \textures_descr\

[naive snow]

Huh well that's an interesting one

Can it only work a single folder down?

Where's raven when you need him

[random fulcrum]

talked with demo about it and it's because i'm adding to the end of the file

and i need to add to the <w> block

the <file> block*

[naive snow]

Isn't there an argument in the modding book to add to the root node directly? So within the current ~<w>~ block ?

[random fulcrum]

not the w one

y ei suppose the w thing is the root node

[random fulcrum]

it finally worked

don't mind the offsets

[naive snow]

What did the final dxml end up looking like for future references?

If you have the mlr level files pack with the version that anomaly uses, then you theoretically could edit anomaly maps and even change that ai map grid.

the GAMMA version deliberately takes the ammo out of the mags so you don't have to manually unload them one by one, the version on GitHub (which is also newer) doesn't do that out of the box - which is a good thing imo and why i specifically use the newer version over default GAMMA

couldn't tell you about anything else but mods like UGP also provide their own Mags Redux versions with patches and additions for their own guns (i presume)

[orchid agate]

thing is the ammo dropped regardless if its taken out is pathetic amount

its like 5 bullets

[open oasis]

yeah but the point is that in default GAMMA players don't have to go through the menial labour of taking the ammo out of the mags and waiting, but i like that aspect of looting, so i use the newer version

[orchid agate]

newer version put ammo in mags yes?

is it hard to install?
isnit stable?

[open oasis]

it is not harder to install, you do the usual Ctrl + M or Edit > Install Mod method for MO2, stability remains the same as far as i'm concerned

no harm in trying

[orchid agate]

Will do after work

cuz I like mags redux it adds a lot of depth to the game such as ammo managment and all that
base gamma is so boring reloading as much as you want to

[open oasis]

i tend to agree

[neat pilot]

Greetings, can anyone tell me how to make dynamic news for an anomaly and what is needed for this?

[mystic fulcrum]

There's already a mod that does that but you can probably expand it yourself quite easily.

[fair canopy]

@naive snow could i possibly bother you to smooth out a gun for me?

[neat pilot]

I understand that there is such a mod, but I need to make my "dynamic news" as a separate addon

[naive snow]

I would have done it but I'm going hunting for a week and won't be back until the 3rd. Sorry

[fair canopy]

no worries. enjoy your trip!

[naive snow]

Thanks

[misty mulch]

you also need the patch from shine + awry for the newest version of MR, otherwise some of gamma's guns won't have mags

[open oasis]

you should ping Ivan (the fake one) with that

i'm actually using the version from UGP and i have a mod (i think it is OneKey) that makes mags drop with ammo in them

[vale knot]

It just defaults the npc mag settings file

I want to edit a weapons ammo type, could someone point me in the right direction?
I've tried searching but most posts are regarding existing rechambers.
I want to mod a weapon's ammo type.

[worthy fiber]

what exactly do you need?
all ammo stats you can find in weapon_ammo.ltx and w_ammo_bas.ltx

there are some stats overrides with different name
just read about dltx

you can search files in mo2 under the run button

[naive plaza]

I see. Is it as simple as changing the ammo_class?

[worthy fiber]

if you want change damage then change k_hit value
if you want change armor penetration then change k_ap value

[naive plaza]

Super valuable info, I appreciate it.

I actually just want to "rechamber" a gun as a start

[worthy fiber]

also keep in mind that weapons apply damage multiplier for damage calculations

[soft burrow]

how can I check if an specific section name exists in the ltx files?

[sacred token]

In a specific ltx file? ini:section_exist(s)

[soft burrow]

in no specific file

looks like ini_sys:section_exists could work without specifying the file

[sacred token]

ini_sys is the file

system.ltx

But yeah, it includes a lot of other ltx files

[soft burrow]

oh okay
I'll need to specify the file since I'm adding a new one then

[hearty plinth]

@fair inlet i am very sorry for ping but, how do i use the enchanced recoil?

[torpid badge]

If I wanted to mess with weapon and armor upgrades is that something that would require unpacking anomaly?

[tawny stream]

Depends on what you mean by "mess with" but things like changing upgrade trees and such do not require an unpack.

Not sure about images and what have you because I am a lowly .ltx toucher.

[torpid badge]

Specifically changing the text on screen for a particular upgrade so that I can make the text match what the upgrade actually does

[fair inlet]

Grok's enhanced recoil is in gamma by default. Vanilla enhanced recoil is in visual settings, you'd want to have it disabled

[hearty plinth]

Ahh

[hearty plinth]

If i disable it, then i can controll the recoil in the files

[worthy fiber]

change fov_r to your liking

by default it is 1.0
i use 0.35

[hearty plinth]

These are in the actual gun files. >items>weapons>sa58.

Or are they somewhere else

[worthy fiber]

do you want change recoil for sa58 only?
what i wrote is about changing recoil power for all guns - it can be changed in grok_bo_enhanced_recoil.script
otherwise look into grok_bo_enhanced_recoil.ltx where enhanced recoil is defined for every weapon

[hearty plinth]

Do i open the files through mo2? Ir directly by filea

[worthy fiber]

doesnt matter

[hearty plinth]

It dosent open through mo2

[worthy fiber]

then just edit in notepad

(it should open through any text editor so idk why you cant open through mo2)

maybe i understand why you cant open coz system doesnt know through what application to open this file extension (if you do it through mo2)
anyway just edit through any text editor

[hearty plinth]

It dosent open through mo2

Quick question, so, I want to edit the Rupture Res. & Ballistic Res. + BR Class of a certain outfit, what sections of the LTX file correspond to Rupture Res, and Ballistic Res + Class? Thank you.

[worthy fiber]

rupture res is wound_immunity
ballistic res is based on bone armor value (can be found in damages.ltx)
br_class is "custom variable" that is based on hit_fraction of an outfit (look into mod_system_items_armors_br_class_rework.ltx)

bullets = fire_wound_immunity

[misty mulch]

https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/configs/items/outfits/o_(outfit).ltx.html reference this

[misty mulch]

damages.ltx bone armor value only affects its ballistic res for npcs, no? and they aren't actually "wearing" the armor, they just get assigned a profile in it

i presume OP is trying to edit the outfit immunities for players when they wear it

[worthy fiber]

i dont remember exactly but grok's actor damage balancer uses bone armor as ball res from bones_koeff_protection section that is definitely refers to profile from damages.ltx
if i am right it is also the same for vanilla

i remember that when i changed fire_wound_immunity for oufit then stat bar for ball_res wasnt changed in vanilla

then i changed damage profile for outfit and... profit. stat bar was changed too

that is how it works

[slow bolt]

I dont believe you. You dont know how damage works

[worthy fiber]

i just checked in vanilla and yeah it is depended on bone armor too

in actor damage balancer (gamma stuff)

you can see that armor protection (literally ball res) is gained from body bone

i guess fire_wound_immunity just cut off damage from bullets at least in vanilla (in gamma fire_wound_immunity is not used as i saw)

[open oasis]

when i go to put the rubber on but she says she has high ball res:

[worthy fiber]

in vanilla hit_fraction ap_scale do things too
damage is not easy to understand even in vanilla
i tried to simplify damage calculations in my mod #1244709304431284294
so i can proudly say that i use only 3 parameters to calculate damage
bone_armor (ball_res)
bone_dmg_mult (part of the damage in leg for example)
armor penetration

it works absolutely the same as for you as for npc
if you see stalker in ps5 (dolg's medium outfit) then he exactly has 44% ball_res as your ps (if you were worn it)

[clear kernel]

wich file in gamma affects workshop tabs?

[random fulcrum]

but balls is done in the bones protection section

that field does literally nothing as it's zeroed in the engine

not only that but the immunity values are actually the damage scales for the outfit's degradation

which are unused in gamma unless you drop the item to the floor and start shooting at it

[tawny stream]

So you're saying... You can't have balls without the bone?

Hi guys!

A few days ago I wondered why this build was only loading one core of my CPU at 100%.

To start. Thanks to everyone who writes mods. You are truly the best!

But I was amazed how all these mods were written 😄
It's horrible.

I slightly modified the engine and the logic for calling callbacks.

I did it!

+25fps total.
+40fps on 99th percentile

• No manipulation of graphics or game logic.

• i7700k

• RTX4060ti

• 16Gb

• Anomaly 1.5.2 (1.5.3, with my work 🙂 )

I continue to work.

[tawny stream]

Impressive if true and repeatable/sustainable. Thank you for your efforts

[random fulcrum]

very cool player i truly hope you don't close source this shit like a mouthbreather

[lethal garden]

Is it possible to increase the amount of cash found randomaly on dead Stalkers?

[grizzled wharf]

Yes, sorry

The main idea is this:

• 1
  Many mods subscribe to the **actor_on_update **callback.

The event is called here:

https://bitbucket.org/anomalymod/xray-monolith/src/d369db0ce75b8101c8d0fe1b2fa7a84b04910a35/src/xrGame/Actor.cpp#lines-1700

For the first tests, I tried to place the call to this function in a separate thread.

Something like this:

    // instead of inherited::shedule_Update(time_diff);
time_diff = DT;
std::thread t1(&CActor::run, this);
t1.join();

...

void CActor::run() {
inherited::shedule_Update(time_diff);
}

This makes fps more stable.
But it doesn't improve performance much since I'm still waiting for the code to execute in LUA.

This server won't let me write text, so I'll have to read the picture

But: I'm very unsure about the stability of the game logic. But so far I haven't encountered any fatal errors.

In any case, I will definitely share the sources with you if I succeed.
I have an old processor and I basically don’t want to change it. 🙂

Also:

• I think many mods might benefit from a timer callback rather than a subscription to actor_on_update.

• Subscribe to:
  on_key_press = {}, -- Params: (<number>)
  on_key_release = {}, -- Params: (<number>)
  on_key_hold = {}, -- Params: (<number>)
  Causes mods to check too many checks. Is their key pressed or not?
  I think that subscribing to a specific key can also bring enough fps.

• Engine code.
  I think that a lot of things can be optimized there. As I understand it, no changes have been made there for two years.

[slow bolt]

modded exes edit the engine code

either way if you have actual results you want to go to Anomaly discord modding channels and talk with engine modders there

[grizzled wharf]

Gamma uses the stock .exe file from Anomaly.

E:\Anomaly\bin\AnomalyDX11AVX.exe

I think this will work for Gamma.

[random fulcrum]

nah it doesn't

it's modded

https://github.com/themrdemonized/xray-monolith

grab this repo

@grizzled wharf

it's quite a few commits ahead of current live gamma

because gamma hasn't been updated in months

start modifying from there

also worth considering that a whole lot of mods do require modded exe features

so it's the most popular choice

[grizzled wharf]

Oh, thank!
I was looking for a actual repository and was directed to bitbucket.

If there is a stable result, I will send an issue.
I'm disconnecting until we meet again

[random fulcrum]

what a wonderful fella what can i say

[slow bolt]

no

[surreal gust]

Firstly, X-Ray isn't only single threaded.

Even the original engine has multithreaded aspects built into it.

Secondly, you're being cpu limited by a LOT.

Of course you're gonna get high cpu usage.

Not talking about your cpu being shit, just saying a couple of reasons why are you being cpu bottlenecked.

Also, if you have like 60 fps and with your edits, the fps is gonna be like 65 or 70 at best.

One of the main reasons why your fps is low is because of smart terrains that are placed in the level. (not the level geometry itself)

[spice pilot]

In short, the question. Does anyone know sources for Anomaly modding books? I tried to read some book from the Internet, but it was explained there for those who understand variables and values. Is there any book or video explaining them? Or figure it out yourself.. 😭 It’s just very difficult to figure it out, I read these LTX files and so on, I don’t even understand where the callbacks go, what values ​​the item has and what they are responsible for.
I apologize for the poor quality translation

[summer girder]

📌

[spice pilot]

[sour salmon]

@spice pilot look through the modding book, but also if you are trying to find some specific definition, try searching for it vaguely in all stalker discords, then ask

I also suggest doing fun crazy tests to figure out exatly what a value does by setting it to absurd numbers

And then learn basic LUA and try to apply what info there is in modding book about scripts to script files to figure out what is going on

Basically what I’m doing right now

Before I post, is there another mod that tells you the actual stat increases gained from armor upgrades?

[ocean harbor]

Looking for some advice on a mod I'm working on. I started with a simple function to give an item :

function my_reward(actor)
alife_create_item("my_item", db.actor)
end

For testing I am able to call my_mod.my_reward() from the debug menu function executor and I get the item added to my inventory. However when I have added this function to the on_complete for a task in tm_dynamic.ltx like this -

on_complete =% ... =reward_stash(true) =my_mod.myreward() ...

I get this exception -

[error]Expression : <no expression>

I think from reading the modding guide / add a new task info, I need to "to find all possible functions check xr_effects.script, but you can make your own too as long you edit xr_effects (not recommended) or add functions from your script into it" now I'm trying to figure ouot how to add my function into xr_effects (without editing it directly)

any idea how I'd get the actor's current radiation level? I know you can change it with db.actor:change_radiation(xyz) but how do I just pull the current value?

lua_help.script seems to imply it's function GetRadiation() but when I call db.actor:GetRadiation() I get a nil value

I'm definitely just dumb but there's obv something I'm missing

[ocean harbor]

sure: there's a callback when a stalker dies, then you would then hook that and spawn more cash on the body

alternatively you may be able to hook the callback for an object being opened for the first time and add money to the player for that event

[fathom wagon]

From actor_effects.script (where local actor = db.actor)

Hey guys, have anyone made it so default geiger counter detects dynamic rad spots

I want to fix the geiger counter problems so bad. Like, make clicks be based on the field strength or on mSv intake per second

but there are so many things I don't get how they work

[soft burrow]

oh man this is very nice

[summer girder]

Ayyyy

[soft burrow]

I lowered the clicks a lot, made the clicks from poisoning need a charged device, and the vanilla environmental clicks that conflict with this mod are initially disabled but you can turn them on by switching the geiger counter to environmental

[summer girder]

@vital onyx

[vital onyx]

[soft burrow]

need to make it warn about water rads too

can water be a shit.draftman?

also gotta make it override grok's rads grace period so it clicks while forgiving some rads

[random fulcrum]

water rads are self inflicted so no

[soft burrow]

does that db.actor:hit(h) line trigger the actor_on_before_hit callback?

[random fulcrum]

yeah

there you're creating a hit and then applying said hit with the db.actor:hit(h) line

so the usual callback firing ensues

[soft burrow]

damn I can't come up with any way to integrate the rads grace period while having the clicks be proportional to the radiation intake

unless I map the s_hit.power to the theoretical actor.radiation growth while controlling for rad res, game difficulty, etc

[soft burrow]

I want to make the rads grace period a way to detect fields that will overpower your rad res but I think I will give up on thinking now

[soft burrow]

now with water rads detection

this has made me realize water is the deadliest rads source

[slow bolt]

Though there isnt much of it and it is easily blocked by a good suit

[slow bolt]

So it fully works and you were able to solve the problem above?

[soft burrow]

it fully works with all rad fields and water puddles but the grace period is still just the vanilla gamma one.
so you just get no ticks during grok's grace period.

when the grace period ends and the rads start accumulating that's when it ticks like crazy

[potent delta]

Water is basically a death sentence until you get your first Sphere helmet fully repaired, with at least a medium armor set (except for like, military ones? They have basically 0 rad resist)

It's all about hitting a threshold of rad resist % which will take you from 0-100 rads in 2 seconds, to barely noticing that you got the smallest bit of rads as you ran through a patch of it on autopilot.

[soft burrow]

I want to know what's that threshold of rad resistance that makes you completely immune to a certain radiation field strength

like, if a radiation hit has a power of 0.004 what radiation protection percentage do I need to be immune to it

that information would help me make a much more useful rads grace period mechanic

[potent delta]

That part, I am afraid I can't help you with. My knowledge of the in-depth number crunch stuff is surface-deep at best.

[soft burrow]

okay I figured it out
rad immunity is when rad_resist > rad_hit_power * 10

math.floor(s_hit.power * 100000 * 0.387) gives you a nice number you can compare with the rad res number from actual accurate stats mod

[potent delta]

And as you get farther and farther from that mark is when you get rad seepage then, I take it? With the bigger the difference meaning the more the rads get through.

I wonder if it's a linear progression or if it's a sort of steep curve the closer to 0% resistance you go.

[soft burrow]

I bet it's linear with the resistance

[potent delta]

Would make sense. Makes it simpler to balance armors.

[soft burrow]

edited ui_dosimeter.script to make the device show env rads from all rad fields and water when switched to env rads mode, using the math.floor(s_hit.power * 100000 * 0.387) calculation

yeah but it loses efficiency really fast

[fair canopy]

[pseudo swan]

lol really helpful

[old berry]

be a chad and dont use artefacts

[random fulcrum]

that formula came directly from what the geiger uses to display rads, actually

it went full circle

[slow bolt]

That's the point

[summer girder]

It takes 4 ingame days to go down to 0, get to hunting

[potent delta]

That's literally the payoff for using KNot. It gives you a TON of MASSIVE boosts but they dwindle as the efficiency drops. The challenge is to keep it as high as possible by sacrificing other artifacts to it so you can beat the game before it drops low enough that you start getting debuffs instead.

Knot is not meant to be used in a casual playthrough where you play the same save for months.

It's meant to be a self-imposed challenge to beat the game before it kills you.

[stable compass]

Anyone know where in GAMMA's mods is the one that removes the ability for technitions to repair your gear?

[fathom wagon]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1179484733764276234
This at least lets mechanics do upgrades and repair your weapon's base condition (not parts). Armor is still not repairable at mechanics with this.

[fathom wagon]

Just so I have a concrete answer:

Mods like the "Ammo Box"/"Ammo Crate" one where you can move your ammo into a container you carry around (not the Hideout furniture) does not play nice in the game, correct? What are the main issues of it?

[sour salmon]

@crisp oxide I think you had something you were working on which would allow a custom new ui for a certain item which would save the items you put in. I think it was you

Something just like tarkov I guess, a separate small inventory ui to put stuff in

You ran into some issue tho

[slow bolt]

he did do that

[crisp oxide]

ye
but Mirrowel was right
too many edge cases

[idle oasis]

guys, can u re-add the clear sky crow shooting game to stalker anomaly pls thx 🙏

[fair canopy]

Give me triple triad in stalker

[edgy trout]

no issues

[soft burrow]

I think it's done
Just need to figure out how to make it monkeypatch a gamma function or tie the function to a callback depending if the gamma function is present, just to make it usable on non-gamma installs

[regal bolt]

Might be a stupid question but would it in theory be possible to only install the scopes and attachments from BaS to base anomaly?

[fair canopy]

no

this is built specifically for gamma. youre welcome to adapt it to anomlay however

[soft burrow]

I thought this monkeypatch would work

what am I doing wrong?

[random fulcrum]

idk try redirecting the function to your edit

function adb.actor_on_before_hit(shit, bone_id, flags)
  gadb_aobh_edit(shit, bone_id, flags)
end

seems to me this is virtually the same as what you're doing but all i know of lua comes strictly from anomaly

[sacred token]

You can also just Unregister the original callback

[idle oasis]

would it be possible to somehow fix the DX8 grass lighting during fog?

it's probably the only issue i have with DX8. close it looks fine, but further away the grass stands out too much during fog and sometimes rain.

[steady apex]

You probably need to unregister the callback function you trying to patch

And register new one

[open oasis]

have you tried using the Classic Textures v0.4 grass?

or disabling Aydin's Grass Tweaks for that matter

[idle oasis]

hmm, haven't tried other texture mods apart from aydin. all aydin's seasonal grass does the same

[open oasis]

try either uninstalling it or using Classic Textures on top of Aydin's Grass (as in, lower on the mod order list) to get a different grass version

let me know if that works

[soft burrow]

this worked, thanks guys

[soft burrow]

I also wanna know if classic textures fixes grass
Might lead to a fix for aydins

[idle oasis]

ill try anomaly grass and then classic textures

[idle oasis]

@open oasis@soft burrow, same buggy grass even with vanilla anomaly or classic textures on DX8 foggy weather

[open oasis]

[fair canopy]

@open oasis read your guide. Dunno if you thought to suggest it or not but lossless scaling has been working great for me. Best 7 bucks I spent in a while honestly. I start the game at 1920x1080 and let it scale up to 1440 and I get 144 fps without a problem on a 2060

Only real problem I have with it is that BHS text UI doesn't scale. I have to manually adjust the position

Though I seem to be the only one who prefers text UI lmao

[open oasis]

hey, we got the Lossless Scaling suggestion right before the guide was posted, i had a chance to try it out myself and i figured that:

1. recommending people paid software is not a great idea for a "just try this and see for yourself" endeavour
2. obtaining the program by any other means (the way i did so) goes against server regulations
3. when i tested the software myself, every frame generation method would lock me at 62-72 FPS, which is a drop from the regular 120 FPS i got, and at a massive latency drop

i couldn't figure out how to make the software not lock the framerate for me as if i was using VSync

[fair canopy]

I didn't bother with frame Gen. I just used the scaling. Though I saw it was suggest in the desolation server to fix pip scope fps drop

[open oasis]

the person i was communicating with at the time told me to lock my framerate with RTSS but i really didn't feel like downloading an entire program to lock FPS and then use another program to potentially boost FPS, that would have gone overboard for the guide

TL;DR i couldn't make it work, i know @sinful wasp had a bit more luck than me

but then again the latency impact was extremely noticeable

[fair canopy]

Weird. I followed a pretty lose guide that just showed how to upscale on boarderless and it boosted my fps. I just had to up my monitors refresh to 144 and I'm hitting max fps now

[open oasis]

oh yeah and it would just crash if you used fullscreen mode so that would require telling people to also use borderless for just this one method

all in all quite a complex method of gaining FPS in my eyes

[fair canopy]

👀

I dunno what guide you followed

The initial setup wasn't bad and after I have it set to automatically start it just starts with the anomaly exe

[open oasis]

i copied the settings that person used, they said they were able to boost from like 60 FPS to 120 FPS, i can post the picture here

[fair canopy]

https://youtu.be/7SgA7M_XhQw?si=2CnbYZ_xI4iWPVpw

This is the guide I used

Granted I also use it on hell divers now and it's maxing my fps there too

I drop to maybe 120 when shit gets crazy

[open oasis]

i was following these settings ZEK posted

[fair canopy]

I'll post you mine when I get home

[open oasis]

👍

[fair canopy]

If you're interested

[open oasis]

sure, i don't think this will ever go in the guide but i like doing my own research when it comes down to this stuff

how did you measure your FPS? with the ReShade counter?

because that's what i used and i was told it would potentially show misleading information if Lossless Scaling was used

[fair canopy]

I used scalings fps counter. Tbh I don't bother with reshade

[open oasis]

i really do wonder if this method works for someone who already gets decent framerate like myself, the other two members who tested this - ZEK and Oflin - already were locked to either 30 or 60 FPS (which i consider low) and it was a way for them to boost beyond that lock

although oflin said he got weird artifacting so that was kind of concerning to me

[sinful wasp]

windowed 720p or less scaling back to aspect ratio/fullscreen is nice at the expense of small artifacts here and there
you obviously get the benefit of more fps because lower resolution but also get to view the game in fullscreen

i heard it's best to have stable 60fps to begin with in order to get the most out of the program + reduce latency and weird artefacts on your screen

i tried it with 30fps and like the bottom of my screen was filled with like weird rendering stuff when using the frame generation feature
maybe the 2.0 version is better idk i used the 1.0 when testing

[fair canopy]

It's not like a stable 60 fps is a bad thing especially in anomaly

[sinful wasp]

maybe i can get a recording that shows said artefacts popping up

[fair canopy]

I haven't seen any artefacting but I also haven't tested a whole ton in game. The two hours of helldivers I played with it looked great

[open oasis]

it is a bad thing if you are regularly getting 90-110 FPS

even worse if your monitor's refreshrate is much higher than 60Hz lol

[fair canopy]

Not all of us can afford a new gfx card to boost a 15 year old engine

[open oasis]

a drop to 60 FPS from 120 (like in Rostok) is really noticeable

[open oasis]

i don't have one, i'm also using a 2060 like you

[fair canopy]

Maybe cpu difference? I have mine boosted to 4.8ghz

[open oasis]

so do i lol

we might have the same rig

the testing rig in the table over at #╰⚡fps-optimisation that says 2060 is mine

[fair canopy]

Maybe it was bad cause I forgot to fix my refresh rate

[open oasis]

i'm playing with a 165Hz monitor so drops below 120 FPS are really noticeable

[fair canopy]

Idk why it switched back to 60. I swear I had set it at 144 for tark

Yeah mine can do 165 I just never see the need

[grand tangle]

Small note for this, there is am option under rendering in lossless scaling called draw fps, thats your fps counter for when the app is putting out after its scaling and generating frames

[open oasis]

yeah so that's essentially what i'm asking, is the ReShade counter misleading after you enable Lossless Scaling? because that's how i was judging my framerate

[grand tangle]

yeah all normal overlay counters will only show what the game is reporting not what is being shown when lossless scaling is enabled

[open oasis]

hmm so maybe i should give this another bash

i saw the video ATHI linked and it says to cap your framerate to half your monitor's refresh rate there which i'm not too fond of

[grand tangle]

you good to jump into a vc? I can run you through my settings for when im running modded single player tarkov

[fair canopy]

[open oasis]

@sinful wasp @storm umbra @misty mulch @tidal elbow hi folks, i am pinging you to propose a potential ("potential" because there are a LOT of caveats, and i would like to hear what you think about this) new addition to the optimization guide, brought up to me by @fair canopy, @grand tangle, and @manic sentinel

TL;DR: Lossless Scaling

i just finished an hour-long testing session with Swarls using Lossless Scaling to attempt and improve the game's performance; i can personally attest to an increase from ~119 FPS to ~144 FPS using the methods described to me by Swarls, and i have further tested the other Scaling Type and Frame Generation options with Swarls' so far being by far the best ones

USER'S RESULTS:

• oflin - 30fps => 60fps (with artifacting) [#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message]
• TheDarkZEK - 60fps => 120fps [#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message]
• Andtheherois - 120-144fps [#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message]

WHAT IS REQUIRED OF THE USER:

1. obtain* Lossless Scaling
2. NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings > LosslessScaling.exe > Vulkan/OpenGL present method > Prefer layered on DXGI Swapchain
3. boot up the game, set display mode to Borderless and FPS Limiter to HALF the user's refreshrate
4. boot up Lossless Scaling and set settings to [see screenshot]
5. click 'Scale', or press the scale hotkey in-game while the program is running

CAVEATS (IMPORTANT):

• *user must purchase the program on steam - using other methods would be akin to suggesting piracy(?)
• user must launch and actively use an external program while running the game - inconvenient
• user has to play in Borderless mode and cap framerate (goes against the suggestion of using Fullscreen and no V-Sync earlier in the guide)
• user has to reliably hit their FPS cap (half the refreshrate)
• user has to adjust a setting in NVIDIA control panel - inconvenient
• potential incompatability with AMD GPU users (setting relating to lower potential input latency using Frame Generation)
• potential incompatibility with certain settings (causing artifacting) on older hardware
• potential subjectively noticeable input delay

[manic sentinel]

:o

[open oasis]

would like to hear what you guys think about this, sorry if this is not the right place to post this (it was brought up to me here)

[grand tangle]

I would also include the potential caveat for AMD gpu users not being able to set the Nvidia Control panel setting to lower potential input latency with frame generation on

[open oasis]

thanks, added to the caveat section

[grand tangle]

quick google search says there is something similar that AMD has for their GPUs that is comparable to Nvidia Control panel. Would need an AMD user that is comfortable with messing with AMD Radeon Settings to see if there is a setting comparable to "Vulkan/OpenGL present method" in NCP and to test if it works the same way for lossless scaling

[open oasis]

yeah we've had a lot of trouble getting the AMD sections done because there was nobody who had the right specs to test these lol

[grand tangle]

yeah not exactly surprising when nvidia is generally a safer and more stable option to choose

at least for GPUs

[fair canopy]

That seems so much more complicated than what I did

[open oasis]

i tested this for about an hour and these were the best settings (can substitute LS1 with AMD FSR, same framerate and latency)

dropping to LSFG 1.1 drops just over 10 frames, dropping the performance mode drops 8-15 additional frames, Allow Tearing, Clip Cursor, and Multi-display Mode don't seem to make a difference

[fair canopy]

Only thing I did in the control panel was make sure vsync was off cause I had triple buffer on

[grand tangle]

the guide i was using from the project fika discord recommended setting vsync to fast to help with lowering latency as well

granted thats if you are going to force vsync through NCP

[storm umbra]

As much as the program is cool, I personally don't support adding pay-to-use software in the FPS guide

Frame-gen also mostly benefits those that already have a 'decent' framerate, since the lower your base fps is the more problems frame-gen introduces

[grand tangle]

i think that if it were to get added there would need to be a massive disclaimer stating that this section requires a paid program and it still might not work. Big bold letters saying that this is not the best way to get more performance but it is something that can be tried if the user is comfortable paying money for an external program that might not fix their performance issues

and even then, thats a BIG if

[sour salmon]

Interesting I’m getting the program right now to test

[open oasis]

i agree with that point, on the one hand you can't ask a user to purchase a software that might do nothing for them, on the other you can't suggest they get it for free as that is considered piracy, it's problematic in this regard

[sinful wasp]

for people on laptops the program must be set to integrated graphics in windows/nvidia control panel and to the proper GPU within the program otherwise it won't work
i was struggling to find a solution to that until now

supposedly with my base 30 fps it boosts it to 45-50 depends on location
allow tearing is very much visible on low framerates like mine so that setting is best just left disabled

but it's still a paid program and i don't feel like the potential boost is worth it especially that it might turn out someone buys it, the thing doesn't work and now they have 7$ that's just stuck on Steam

[open oasis]

yeah i mean you can always refund it but it's bad policy to suggest something like that on an official server guide i feel

i imagined that this would be the main problem and for a good reason

[sour salmon]

Is this really, really worth it

[open oasis]

probably not for $7

[sour salmon]

Let’s say we disregard the cost

Then what

[sinful wasp]

even if refunded that money is basically "gone" and you are sorta forced to spend it on games or something else once it's on Steam

Not a guaranteed method + paywall = not good for official guide
as a user to user mention in channels sure

[open oasis]

you must be able to reliably hit your FPS cap in order for this to work properly, if you can't already reach 30/60 FPS then this won't benefit you, plus the input delay is very noticeable imo

[open oasis]

yep that's what i thought

[static nebula]

I was already thinking it looked like a hassle even if it was free, but considering it costs 7 bucks on top, I don't think it's really worth lol

[open oasis]

let's just say i haven't paid $7 to test this but we're not allowed to talk about that, i question if this is even disallowed based on the fact you can simply google the software and get... results

[sour salmon]

Ok I’ll consider other options before this, good effort on the guide, even if it’s not the best option

[open oasis]

thanks, i appreciate it

i didn't imagine it would go in

worth a try anyway since it's quite a significant boost compared to the other options

let's see if Falco has any other insights, probably not

[grand tangle]

Yeah, i do wish LS was a bit more universal in its applicability because since i started using it, its been great. I generally will still recommend the program since it can be used outside of stalker and even gaming. I will say that the whole image sharpness option is nice since it can be applied outside of reshade if the user still wants that. The barrier for entry to an official performance guide is just a bit too high for this program to reach unfortunately

[open oasis]

well said

oh i was able to confirm that taking screenshots and recording with OBS still work with LS, just as a heads up

it is said FPS counters and other overlays will not work

[sour salmon]

That’s a rough downside

Def will help some people, it’s good to have options for people to choose from, a few free, a few not free (😉)

[grand tangle]

as a clarification to the fps counter, LS has its own counter that will accurately show the fps being output from the application. What happens is other overlays will only read what the game is outputting for FPS and not what LS is sending out to the screen after it does all of the things it does to increase FPS. So say you lock your fps to half your monitor's refresh rate, Reshade and other overlays will report the locked fps instead of the FPS output from LS

[sour salmon]

Ohhh I see

Ok not bad

[grand tangle]

yeah not as bad as it sounds but still another hoop to jump through

[sour salmon]

Yah I’m working on a mod rn but I will have to find some time to test the waters myself, it does seem promising

[torn vault]

hi, i'm trying to make a mod for "vanilla" clear sky to bind eating kolbasa to a hotkey; i looked through sky reclamation project's code in search of something useful and found some key binds it adds, but unfortunately those only work in the pause menu, is there a way to make a custom keybind to run lua code during the game?

[potent delta]

That is a very interesting thing to want to keybind, since most of the time just opening your inventory and spam clicking the item does the job last time I played Clear Sky (like a decade ago lmao)

[summer girder]

To be fair, eating food heals about as well as medkits do

[torn vault]

that's exactly what i'm hoping to avoid, my favorite feature in call of pripyat is being able to bind arbitrary items to arbitrary hotkeys, and while recreating the item hotbar is too much of an undertaking for me, i was hoping hardcoding some item hotkeys wouldn't be too difficult - but so far i'm at a loss, i looked up how anomaly and OGSR create custom key binds, but it's too complex and probably requires engine modifications

[potent delta]

SHoC Tourist's Delight my beloved.

Like 1/6 of your hp healed for eating a funny can of meat.

[torn vault]

the best i was able to do is eat kolbasa from the pause menu, but that is inconvenient and has the side effect of letting you "dupe" kolbasa (restore hp more than once per kolbasa)

[plush sierra]

Anyone have the .ogg of the SHOC theme?

Hey guys. How do I get to actually making a custom armor for GAMMA? (I wanna remake a Skat-9 for it to be able to compete with merc ACE and have people actually wearing something else than ACE for once)

Not that it is better than ACE in my mind, but it will compete with it head on

Less anomalous res than ACE, but more impact, explosive and rupture res, while also getting 5 artifact slots instead of 2 to 3

The questions are as follows:

1. How do I find Skat-9 file?
2. Will unpacking anomaly cause any issues with my game?
3. Can I just copy and paste the file with remade stats after renaming it and changing the values?
4. Approximately how long is it gonna take giving my no prior experience to modding/ coding?
5. How do I make it so the player has the Skat-9 Ecolog model ingame, same with NPCs if you use DNPCAV (the Peregrine's Skat-9)
6. If I can make it work would anyone be willing to guide me through the process?

I am a total greenhorn when it comes to making any type of mod that isn't just straight up changing specific values or removing the files

So any help would be appreciated qwp

[open oasis]

2. Will unpacking anomaly cause any issues with my game?
   no, it will just add around 20GB to the weight of your install

[random fulcrum]

20gb of text files?

gahdaym

[regal bolt]

So no need to worry if I have SSD space right?

[random fulcrum]

honestly and i swear to god not to toot my own horn, look at my tyrael's might shitpost mod

if you haven't already

granted the method to obtain the piece might vary drastically, that mod has everything laid out on how to implement armor

[regal bolt]

Tbh toot the damn horn all you want, as long as I get to make the Skat-9 "Ecologist" a reality

[regal bolt]

I'll give it an extensive read. Not skimming on details. Expect questions tho

[random fulcrum]

the redline exoskeleton mod also has a more natural obtain method

and it's also less clean

[regal bolt]

Hmmm... I'll check both. Can you link the redline exo one tho?

Is posting assets from stalker 2 forbidden here? Ive put together an ambient soundtrack mod with time slots/ locations, 600+ songs from the leaked build

[celest forge]

the 2012 build?

[ocean spruce]

No the one that was hacked I think

[old berry]

how tf did a leak build have 600 songs

[ocean spruce]

It’s p amazing

[celest forge]

I'm pretty sure the mods did say something against sharing any assets from the leaked S2 stuff yeah

[ocean spruce]

Ah darnit

Anyone wants it dm me haha

[celest forge]

Yeah not cool to leak stuff that was meant to harm a team of people that had to leave their country forcefully because of an armed conflict

[rare sage]

one of the channels has a pin that says no talking abou S2 leaks

[old berry]

wasnt it leaked by some pro russian basement dweller

[rare sage]

you dont need to includ ebasement dweller
first part says that enough

[open oasis]

@fair canopy hey, you said were able to make Lossless Scaling launch together with GAMMA automatically, how did you do that?

[rare sage]

either a .bat file or possibly something with steam

[fair canopy]

I mean there's that whole mod that uses stolen half finished assets for character replacersin mod posting

[rare sage]

i get wanting to back port stuff but jesus christ just wait 💀

[fair canopy]

Set up a new profile and filter it for the exe you want to run

On the left side of the panel there's + you can click to add new profiles

It won't automatically start. You either have to set it to start with your pc or open it up manually but once it's in the background it'll do it's thing when you start your filtered programs

[rare sage]

following this guide to get stuff into blender is really annoying
i have 0 reading ability

[celest forge]

It's really ez

[rare sage]

say that to my dumbass

[celest forge]

.object?

[rare sage]

yeah the guide says to import the .object

[celest forge]

tf

STALKER models are ogf tho

.object iirc is for like the level geometry

But I could be wrong on that one

[rare sage]

yeah theres a tool that converts it to .object

[old berry]

why do you want to do that

[rare sage]

im following the pinned guide for getting guns into blender

😭

[old berry]

you just open them as ogf and thats it

[rare sage]

i got told to use the guide so i was using it

😭

it sitll gives me errors

[old berry]

which guide are you following

[rare sage]

to do with textures?

i think

this one

[celest forge]

What version of blender are you using

[rare sage]

4.0

[celest forge]

You need 3.6 for the blender plugin to work

won't work on newer versions

[rare sage]

ohhhh

[old berry]

i swear that info should be pinned

[celest forge]

What is this guide

This must be really, really old

[glacial wagon]

these renders were made separately from each other, completely ignoring this point. But you seem to want to find fault with something... so?

[celest forge]

Oh so they are renders

Not in X-Ray

[rare sage]

wdym?

i was just pointing out that the logo lined up on it which was cool

[celest forge]

That guide is really dumb

[glacial wagon]

OK. Got you.sorry

[celest forge]

The plugin already can import and export OGF

Why would you convert to obj, import as obj, edit, export as obj and then convert to ogf

when you can just import ogf, edit and export ogf from blender

[glacial wagon]

Oh, we have a genius here! at the primary school student level....

but it's a massive FPS boost

does that not work with the automatic version?

[fair canopy]

You don't need frame Gen. Imo it does nothing if we aren't using pip

Idk why all these guides are over complicated

Scaling mode auto: aspect ratio. Scaling type to your preference. No frame Gen

wait are all the attachments and stuff pre modeled on and just disabled when not equipped?

[fair canopy]

Some are. Some have to be scripted

[rare sage]

that makes sense

[open oasis]

the settings i chose work perfectly for me i just want to get the automatic method running

[fair canopy]

Attachments are all over the place

Maybe frame Gen doesn't work with auto?

[open oasis]

oh no i just removed the delay and it worked

yeah for some reason it just doesn't work if you've got the delay set up for it

thanks for the help

[fair canopy]

Oh lol

[rare sage]

the models look so smooth without textures

[fair canopy]

Well there ya go

Is that an lod model?

[rare sage]

i dont think so

i imported the _hud version

[celest forge]

That looks

odd

[old berry]

it definitely is just look at it

[fair canopy]

What game is that from?

[rare sage]

wait

i think these are SOC

[celest forge]

That would make a lot of sense

[rare sage]

i enabled textures

[open oasis]

you're losing out on 50 FPS by not having frame gen on you're actually insane

[random fulcrum]

what if the screen is 60hz

[open oasis]

my screen is not 60Hz

[rare sage]

they should invent 61hz

this looks less weird

[fair canopy]

I run at 144 without frame Gen though 👀

I'm also not an
Fps coomer

[open oasis]

I... I'M..... I'M COOMING OVER MY FPS

i'm getting like 138 FPS with framegen and without it's like 85 FPS

previous testing also got me to 144 FPS now it doesn't wanna play ball for some reason

why is the delay not working it's pissing me off

if i do 0 delay it fullscreens the little Anomaly flyout image lol

ohhhh i see why it does that now

when the game itself boots up it starts the timer again

[fair canopy]

Is that really that much of an inconvenience?
