[storm basin]

the question is not about a guide

there is a missing animation in the 61st mod which I want to ask about but yeah

[random fulcrum]

lil bro skipped over all the text in the post and just saw the title of the video

imagine

[slow bolt]

imagine reading

[storm basin]

oh ye ty

[wary scroll]

Hello everyone
I wonder if it is possible to add height map for any textures ?

Or maybe limited to grnd only?

[random fulcrum]

it's not limited to just the ground

but yeah it's the easiest to spot because you can go prone

[naive snow]

You can add height for the parallax and a lot of textures already have height maps

[copper lichen]

How does that work? I tried changing LTX, but I l’m not sure if I’m doing it correctly

[wary scroll]

So in that case nvm
Wanted to give all in game textures height map too

Maybe later

Too much time consuming

[naive snow]

Search through every .ltx file for the [wpn_xxx] section of the weapon you want to edit and find if a DLTX is overriding the section you want to edit

[copper lichen]

So since I want to change the mag size of one of the as Val’s, I find wpn_val_m1 or something and change the value?

How do I see if a dltx is overriding the section

Sry I’m new to modding

[naive snow]

Use the !debug command in #🤖bot-commands , enable debug mode, open up the menu with F7, check the item spawner menu for the full name of your gun (lots of guns have very similar names). With something like notepad++ search in files with the name string of the gun and an exclamation mark before the brackets like so ![wpn_xxx], an exclamation mark means an override of that section

Pount your search to your Gamma mods folder and filter by file extension .ltx

[copper lichen]

oh and then I change the values in the ltx

also how do I filter by file extension

So I see some overrides (10 hits) but they are mostly sound mods

Oh thx I changed it in mod weapon fixes ty so much

[copper lichen]

oh also how do you change the chance of a certain quest? Like I want bounty tasks or camp assault tasks to appear more often

[spring dagger]

anyone know of a good UI overhaul mod. and what mod people use to make you have to load mags

i guess that works with this
RPG-XP-Redux-Orleon-ilrathCXV

and theres soomething about loot boxes in the skills section. but i dont think i have the proper mod for it

[celest forge]

Mags Redux for the mags

[slow bolt]

Not the place to ask for mods

this is for making mods

fatal typo

[spring dagger]

sorry pardner.

[celest forge]

@void sluice how bout this

(Moved to this channel because it doesn't REALLY belong on the stalker channel until I export it)

[void sluice]

it do feel more forceful, but I'd say it still needs more, especially at the angle it's ejecting(you can see the bullets moving weird).
Full disclosure, I'm no gun expert, I'm just commenting on what I see and what I've learned from watching Jonathan Ferguson Keeper of Firearms and Artillery reacting to other ingame revolvers. His ussual comment regarding revolver reloads is how gently the user tends to tap the bullets when they are ussualy stuck in there quite firmly due to the bullet being a tight fight and the fact that after shooting, the casing tends to expand from the gasses so it get's lodged in there even more

[coral brook]

anyone knows about weapon cover tilt position addon stuff?
I mean, I tried to edit values of different guns to make them more realistic length for how the addon works
however, if I try with different numbers it doesnt work as I thought.. any tips?

[coral brook]

ah looks like I was messing with irrelevant numbers
now I wonder what those y = 0.x do? hmm

[storm basin]

guys how do you make the text in the ui bold?

in the inventory for example

[naive snow]

Install an alternative font or change all the xml stuff

[tawny stream]

This is true, that extractor rod is nice to have.

[forest sinew]

Hey people!
I got some UI problems!
I would like to move the followers pictures up.
I heard it's possible to edit in the xml, but i dont know the name or location.
anyone can give a hint?

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

[pulsar flame]

hey guys

I'm trying to make a reposition for the PL-15

the bearcat model

but for some reason when I tried it kept glitching out

anyone know why?

the values would just keep changing back

to something wierd

and otherwise it would get overwritten

[simple scaffold]

configs/ui/ui_hud.xml

nah, you can ride my coat tails. a script ending in _mcm.script will be loaded at such a time that it can patch the faction select script.

someone might already have done what you are trying to do tho. i know glow sticks adds its items to the loadout screen that way.

[simple scaffold]

the ingame editor is notorius for not saving. take a screen shot and manually update the ltx maybe?

if that still doesn't work then there is probably a dltx messing with it.

[pulsar flame]

i think it might be a dltx

but I'm not sure which oen

*one

[tribal rivet]

Greetings! can you tell me what is the mod that changes to this kind of inventory?

[pulsar flame]

it's the UI Rework G.A.M.M.A. Style by Sota

here: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/ui-rework-gamma-style-by-sota

[tribal rivet]

@pulsar flamethank you!

[pulsar flame]

no problem

enjoy!

[celest forge]

What is this gun tho

[slow bolt]

Looks like tactical sks

[outer dock]

I know nothing about making mods, but Im trying to make mercs enemies with loners because after the brain scorcher mission they are friends. I imported the original file (which makes them enemies) into my game as a mod and they are still friends?

the relations between killer and stalker are both -2000 in the file, but ingame its +2000

[naive snow]

Because there's a script that changes that positively and looks at whether the BS has been completed or not. You're better off using the faction relationship editor for this instead

[outer dock]

wheres the faction relationship editor, is that something I unpack or download

[naive snow]

Download from moddb

[outer dock]

thanks

is that installed as a mod yes?

[naive snow]

No

Well if you mean you have to install it like every other mod, then yes

Otherwise you can just force it through console command

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/s/mO80FZnOhM

[outer dock]

ok thanks

[outer dock]

holy fucking shit thank you so much it works, I spent an hour trying to change it through debug menu and mods

[hardy hound]

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

you can also use this addon thar burn said, allows you to change in-game easily

[steady venture]

Where is the bloodsucker invisible (the invisible, yet blurry one) texture defined?

[slow bolt]

Gotta be a shader

[naive snow]

@faint sable Do you know by heart what's the name of the scope attachment atlas?

[celest forge]

The what

[faint sable]

All I really know is all the icons are found in this dds, for the namings of them idk exactly

I just check the bas weapon ltxs to figure out their namings exactly

[celest forge]

Ah the icons

[faint sable]

most can be figured out via debugs namings

Yee we was on about icon stuff

[naive snow]

Well this was quicker than expected. Now I just have to setup all the icons properly in their own layer and named and the whole thing will output to console the proper background layer name + the scope and the X and Y positon

Gotta figure out the proper corners too, but once all scopes are lined up in their own layer on a fake rail, you'd only have to drag the group of layers to the right spot, hit the script and you'd get a nice print out output to paste into your DLTX or LTX

I'll continue fiddling with the script output and the idea over the coming days, but overall once everything is done, just line up the gun, move the group layer and hit the script. Would be way less tedious than lining up the scopes one by one like we'd done previously and constant reloads

If the concept works properly I'll make something similar for silencers

[celest forge]

There's something already like that

[naive snow]

No way what

You can actually fine tune the placement and all?

[random fulcrum]

woah there's a tool for this shit

i free handed the numbers

gahdaym

[naive snow]

I mean I got the tool working so I'm happy with it, but if there's already a tool for it

[naive snow]

What's the name of the thing?

[celest forge]

You can move it yeah

[naive snow]

Welp fuck that actually works pretty darn good, bit of a pain to hand pick every scope placement, but it sure as shit beats the eye-balling method

I'll probably continue working on the js script to batch place scopes and an easy dltx print out

@faint sable Might wanna check out the tool that already exists, works good if you have the patience to do every scope one at a time

[celest forge]

Still 20x faster than eyeballing it

[naive snow]

Good bye guessing out 20+ positions

[faint sable]

Juan you know thm stuff right, is there a process that can make setting them up faster? like what I do is just copy and paste a thm and thm bump and then rename them and use the thm viewer to set them up, anyway to make it quicker or is it just boring like everything is texture wise

[celest forge]

No that pretty much is how they're done lol

[faint sable]

idk why I hate thms lmao

they feel so boring idk

[celest forge]

It is

[slow bolt]

lmao

[inner rose]

I want to make a patch that makes the hideout furniture beds work in the safe zones created by the TB Coordinate Based Safe Zones. I've found the function that I need to update and know how I need to modify that function, but I could use some guidance on how to make it a standalone patch instead of tweaking the script that's already in that mod.

[slow bolt]

wonderful. Does that mod make sleeping bags work already?

[inner rose]

yeah, it does

My plan is to override the function that makes sleeping bags work and make it also accept the three hideout furniture beds, but I'm a little lost on how to properly override a function.

[knotty ruin]

Guys, tell me, who knows how to return the old animations of the anomaly gamma,

Here is an example, on Toz there is an animation that used to be on all guns (a year ago)

and the animation of the Kalash is new, I don’t like it and I would like to try to replace the animation of all the guns as in the example of Toz

[slow bolt]

Its lowered weapon sprint

it has an exclusion list

[knotty ruin]

Can this be somehow replaced with the old animation?

[slow bolt]

Its the old and correct animation

go to the script and remove the exclusions

[knotty ruin]

so this gun`s animation is right?

[slow bolt]

toz's is

[simple scaffold]

That realy does make it simple. Such a cool idea. and it is just an MCM tab. genius. MCM is genius too.

[bleak chasm]

Hello Staklers. I am trying to edit RD-939 files (Vintorez ISG) but with no success, do you guys know which specific file to edit ? I succesfully edited PKM and Ak105 but RD-939 is a tough nut to crack for me

[rotund lotus]

Texture, scripts or animation or ltx? What specifically

[bleak chasm]

I am interested in itx files

I found w_vintorez_isg files but those don't seem to reflect ingame RD-939 stats (for example RD mag has 30 rounds, in w_wintorez_isg files ammo cap is set to 10 ) editing these files does not seem have any effect on the gun

[rotund lotus]

Send me the ltx file i will try to help

I usually just edit it then set desired ammo then save it but not close to see if it works

Then run game

Or there might be a duplicate file that overides the ltx you edited

[bleak chasm]

There are 3 files with that name and I edited all of them but to no effect

[rotund lotus]

Try to delete 2 files but keep it just in case and then copy the remaining file where you deleted all of em

[fair inlet]

you'd have to learn how DLTX works

[bleak chasm]

deleted all but one file and the stats stayed the same. Maybe some other file is overriding the rifle stats.

[bleak chasm]

I don't know what is DLTX but editing other ltx files worked just fine, only RD939 iis problematic

[misty mulch]

probably because it's being overwritten by dltx files, which is the other reason why you need to learn dltx

[bleak chasm]

Is there a tutorial ? I want to become a new modding god

[celest forge]

Tutorial for what, there's many different types of mods you can make for the game and they all involve different processes

[random fulcrum]

yeah there are but i'm not telling you where it is (hint: it's in your discord window if you're reading this reply in the correct channel)

[bleak chasm]

Thanks, Ill start from that

[storm basin]

hey guys so in this modpack I'm looking into the ammo icons are changed, without a mod inside the mo2 doing that (from what I can see)
what can I look for to confirm whether or not a mod from mo2 does it or something else does it? maybe a name of a icon that I could search for? nothing comes up thats relevant with an "ammo" search in mo2

[inner rose]

anybody know how CreateTimeEvent works? If it's in the middle of a function, will it delay execution until it completes?

[inner rose]

I got sleeping to work properly in the coordinate based safe zones!

[naive snow]

You add a program like Notepad++ or your IDE of choice to launch through MO2. Then you open it and search in files through your Anomaly/gamedata folder. Filter by file extension for .ltx and search the ammo name. You'll the list of files that reference that ammo name so you can look for dltx that change it

[storm basin]

what do you mean launch through MO2?

opening notepad through mod organizer?

[naive snow]

The drop down where you select the DX version to launch, you click edit and add your program there

[storm basin]

u mean like this?

[naive snow]

Yes

You forgot the start in folder tho

[storm basin]

wait what is supposed to happen when u open it hahaha im genuinely confused

it opens notepad per usual nothing special

[naive snow]

It just virtualizes the gamedata to be placed in Anomaly/Gamedata

It basically compiles all of the mods as if you had launched the game

Allowing you to search that folder as if the game was running, with good files overwritting each others

[storm basin]

so like the start in would be

anomaly itself?

and then after opening notepad

you can do the file > open and search shit there?

or you mean search in windows just cuz the games folder changes as if the game is open like u said

[naive snow]

Search like so

[storm basin]

thats not how it looks for me "cry emojiconium"

its an empty file LMFAO

[naive snow]

What do you mean empty file?

[storm basin]

its just notepad

with an empty thing

[naive snow]

Yeah?

Did you do the search?

[storm basin]

search is done through notepad right? but what I would I be searching if I have nothing inside the notepad

[naive snow]

I litteraly showed you an exemple of what

[storm basin]

oh nvm I see

[naive snow]

The ammo name, the filters and the directory. I couldn't spoon feed you more

[random fulcrum]

bro has notepad++ on light mode

[naive snow]

My eyes are pleasantly hurt. Keeps me awake

[storm basin]

thank fucking allah I found the fucking images FUCKING PROGRESS FINALLY SOMEWHERE

[storm basin]

why would anyone use notepad in anything but light mode

[cold eagle]

https://tenor.com/view/dark-mode-dark-mode-off-light-mode-blinded-blind-gif-21330136

[summer girder]

Blink twice if light mode is holding you hostage

[storm basin]

what does this type of a file do?

[summer girder]

Pretty sure it's the world model for ammo boxes

Aka dynamic object

[summer girder]

Welp
Gonna have to wait for more knowledgeable help

[storm basin]

yo guys anyone with blender here could check the two omf files if the draw animations match the name in the first picture?

[thorn stratus]

hi, is there a reason why these HD outfit models have faster walk footsteps sounds compared to vanilla?
where is this set? can I fix it?

[glass wharf]

heyo, how might one add an outfit to the game? as in just 1, without copying the entire o_(insert outfit type).ltx file from db and adding an outfit to the list of outfits in said file

[inland hollow]

s there someway to get better healing animations for exos? also is there one for the normal animations?

[slow bolt]

Elaborate on both. What is better? What is "one for the normal"?

[inland hollow]

i meant to ask if theres a mod that adds new animations for healing when in an exosuit, bc im using the unisg exo rn and its bugged theres (the screen is not on the arm display but a little under it) also if i remember correctly the al2 medkits and so on should have an exosuit animation

[slow bolt]

Yeah so its a problem and not a modding discussion

#1267999014356385892 #1268260319231348798 both fix this

[misty mulch]

you can use dltx to create a new section in the general outfits ltx, and then continue to use dltx to inject your new section into npc loadouts, trader lists, etc

:(((((((((((

[cold eagle]

Currently reading through what it takes to mod, we'll see if something comes of it haha

https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/

[misty mulch]

ngl it may go faster if you find a mod that does something similar to what you want to do, and crack it open and try to figure out what it is doing (using the modding book as a guide)

[cold eagle]

Yea im looking around for what mod adds parts condition, no luck pinning it down yet

[misty mulch]

...that is a feature of basegame anomaly

that would be why you can't find the mod that does it

[cold eagle]

Ah ok, then next is finding documentation of their callouts perhaps

Man anomaly on its own is incredible

[royal crater]

it would be really cool if someone added a euphoria mod (cool ragdolls) to stalker

[cold eagle]

You can enable for a bit of that

[random fulcrum]

but uhh

that one doesn't do anything in gamma

and also it's the opposite of ragdolls

[cold eagle]

Really? I use it and they either stand for a bit holding a wound, or fly backwards with arms outstretched after a grenade blast, among other things. Without it they just drop to the floor @random fulcrum

The euphoria ragdolls do stuff like walk a bit then fall over or do weird spinny things. I've seen a bit of these type animations using xcvb's death animations

[random fulcrum]

anyways just disable that one and use demonized's death animations

or whatever it's called

it's at the end of fixes

[slow bolt]

Yeah that is vanilla

[cold eagle]

lol I had no idea @slow bolt

[slow bolt]

Yeah some always existed

[misty mulch]

ok q for the modders. is there a callback i could use, if i wanted a function that triggers when the player uses a specific weapon wpn_placeholder to kill an NPC?

or knows of a mod that does something similar

[random fulcrum]

yeah you can just do that with on before hit and on hit callback

since it's done around gbo

there would be even easier ways of doing so but that's the first thing that pops into mind

[misty mulch]

and then presumably write a function that sees if npc on hit has health >= 0 and also checks what gun the player is holding, etc.?
is there a reason to avoid e.g. npc_on_death_callback or is that just an alternate approach

ahhh fuck it i'll just try stuff

[random fulcrum]

and what if the guy doesn't die

oh the idea is to check if he dies

then sure just on death callback

cache the hit, check if the killer is the player

maybe check time too

[storm basin]

Do I move the blacklisted in the possible bracket?

I meant, do I remove them?

or just mark them as false?

you have to use blender 3.6

it's in the instructions

which instructions?

I'm just using a video rn

is there a guide here?

so how do I downgrade my blender version?

should I just search for version 3.6, uninstall my version and install that?

Is there a mod that plays hardbass on the PDA?

Or just make some pf the stalkers dance when music is played

[regal bolt]

I actually wanted it to be even louder, but this was such a big welcome change, big thanks mate!

[misty mulch]

No and why would you. That faction only exists to set up the soft lock you get if you wish for immortality.

Otherwise it's just monolith with even less going on

[last valve]

because i think it would be really funny if a literal brainless zombie was the one to disable the brainscorcher and MM and such

[misty mulch]

Then have fun redesigning LTTZ considering zombie faction is hostile to all those quest givers, same reason why bandit doesn't get lttz

[last valve]

shame oh well

wait wouldent disguises work or is there some other coding shit happening where that wouldent work

[misty mulch]

Can't do lttz in disguise, you don't get the right dialog flags set, nor the first quest, and it WILL crash if you try to progress it

Again you would have to redesign how the LTTZ quest works to create a zombie faction version

[slow bolt]

Wrong chat

[near gate]

How are the values for armour worked out? In the original games it was pretty easy to work out, but the values in the various files here don't seem to match up with what's in the game

[naive snow]

Armors for NPCs obey a different logic from players if that's what you're asking. They have a profile assigned to the visuals which doesn't use the same BR rating/resistance rules and some models have another override or modifier

[near gate]

No I mean like in the original games I could see that psi protection had 0.4 next to it in the file and could work out what that meant in the game. now I'm seeing psi protection 0.021 or whatever, but the game says that armour has 9% of psi protection, if that makes sense

And if I change the values in the file, are those changes applied to items on the player/in inventory, or do they only take effect from once a new one is looted?

[naive snow]

Gamma pretty much has a reworked immunities system so you kinda have to test out values and/or check which dltx has the final values

[near gate]

Yeah it's really weird. I think there's at least on other mod that *might *also affect the overall values? None of the values I changed did anything to the armour I was experimenting with either, which is why I thought I needed to find a new piece to see if the values were accurately presented there

[naive snow]

Like I said, probably a DLTX overwrites the values somewhere is my guess, like the armor rework mod. You'd have to setup notepad ++ or your IDE of choice and comb through the files with a reference search to see

[near gate]

Slightly frustrating. If I enable debug to spawn a new armour, I can disable debug once I've checked the values?

[random fulcrum]

just grab it from moddb?

[naive snow]

Sure, debug doesn't really have any incidence aside from an Invictus run

[near gate]

Groovy. Alright, thanks for the help. At least it looks like there's only the one other mod that changes armour values. Time to have a play around, I suppose

[fair canopy]

I didn't realize it was an older mod

[storm basin]

guys where is the anomaly weapon icon default file located at?

[fair canopy]

search for ui_icons_equipment in mo2

[storm basin]

funny enough the file isn't there

idk how to look for this thing now

its not in gamma, so yeah

[fleet mesa]

remove the s on icons

ui_icon_equipment

[storm basin]

tried that

its not there either

just mentions of it

but not the file itself

[fleet mesa]

if you're looking for the image(.dds) file it's in mods\G.A.M.M.A. Icons\gamedata\textures\ui

[storm basin]

it's not gamma

but I think I already found it after unpacking db files

@solid pilot I may have the footstep sounds from custom now

[solid pilot]

OKAYYY

step by step you will have it all 😈

[storm basin]

and with that missing sun texture, I'm 99% sure that they are in the 4 db files that I'm trying to unpack right now

it's not working so far but I hope I'll figure it out fkn dogshit ass

[solid pilot]

nahh youll get it man i know you can. you have the motivation just keep at it and keep asking around for help/info when needed

[storm basin]

I fucking found it brotha

here it fucking is

[solid pilot]

LMFAO SEEE

[storm basin]

there are a bunch of them, but the file that changes this is what I was looking for

[solid pilot]

step by step

anomaly gamma custom

LMFAO

[rustic silo]

Hello.

Can somebody help me please here?

Screwyou said i have to ask for help here.

[lilac idol]

no one can't help you if you don't say what you need help with

[rustic silo]

True. I just tested that will somebody answer me.

But so.

I wanted to take my own musics to the PDA radio, so i downloaded this mod from moddb: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/pda-playlist-framework
I did everything as it was written, I reinstalled the mod, did everything again, now when i browse in the pda radio, it writes the name of the music file for a tenth of a second, but then the radio turns off.

[misty mulch]

!radio // no one's answering prob cos no one has used it. the link below is the procedure that's usually recommended for gamma

[queen pine]

@rustic silo Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[rustic silo]

That is what i started with.

When something went wrong.

[royal crater]

how do i install the new version of demonized saves without breaking my game?

[slow bolt]

Saves? what

either way not a question for this channel

go to #╟🔰☢newbies-chat

[summer girder]

Someone has but they didn't write the guide in English.

[cold eagle]

Per Veerserif's suggestion, I'll ask if anyone's had experience adding durability to items not originally intended for it? If I can start this workflow maybe I can get some progress on the mod

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1274390268455686226

[hardy hound]

have you read the part about the name of the sound file

its probably that or bitrate, nothing elwe

[ruby dust]

it is possible to make certain mutant parts gauranteed? like make meat always drop but the other things still be rng?

[hardy hound]

Yeah theres a addon

i dont have the link, but googling mutant parts drop anomaly moddb will pop

theres with mcm config to tweak also

[ruby dust]

thanks

[rustic silo]

Yes.

[rustic silo]

I might try this again, if this don't works, i stay with the normal version.

[near gate]

Which file do I need to edit to change armour values? I've been looking and looking and have seen maybe half a dozen different files that all have armour values. None of the changes I've made actually make it in to the game

Also, it looks like values are spread through maybe a dozen separate files? Like radiation resistance is in one file, carry weight is in another. That's seems like an incredibly complicated way to do things

[misty mulch]

correct, you'll need to make a dltx file that loads last so that your changes take priority over all the others

[misty mulch]

except this also allows multiple mods to edit the same item without fear of incompatibility, especially if they are modifying different aspects and aren't actually conflicting

it's a much better system than just an endless string of direct file overwrites

[fair canopy]

this is amazingh

[misty mulch]

worth a pin...?

[quasi narwhal]

i'm speechless

[near gate]

Ok, but how do I find the currently existing files for armour that the game is using

[fair canopy]

Yes

[fleet mesa]

GAMMA\mods\G.A.M.M.A. Actor Damage Balancer\gamedata\configs
GAMMA\mods\G.A.M.M.A. Armors no integrated helmet\gamedata\configs
GAMMA\mods\G.A.M.M.A. Exo Balance\gamedata\configs (believe this has the final weight values for nosorog that you were looking for)

haven't edited any myself but these directories should have most if not all of the final files used by the game from what I see

[near gate]

I'm pretty sure I've found these, but the weight of the ISG nosorog in-game doesn't match anything I've seen in the various files for it.

Also I seem to have a bunch of folders and files spread out in two different areas on my C Drive. First lot is under 'Anomaly' and the second lot is under 'GAMMA RC3'

[fleet mesa]

did you check the weight values in G.A.M.M.A. Exo Balance? It gets loaded after G.A.M.M.A. Armors no integrated helmet so it'll overwrite the values from that file

otherwise the best route will likely be just making your own file with just the values u want changed and load it last like veerserif was saying

rather than trying to hunt down all the files and checking what's getting loaded last

[near gate]

Oh yes. This has the same item weight as in the game, but that's all it lists.

[near gate]

Seems to be the case

[fleet mesa]

yea the exo balance mod only adjusts the weights, the other values are likely set in the G.A.M.M.A. Armors no integrated helmet

or in G.A.M.M.A. Actor Damage Balancer

G.A.M.M.A. Actor Damage Balancer gets loaded last between G.A.M.M.A. Armors no integrated helmet and G.A.M.M.A. Exo Balance so probably start there first, then for any values not in there use the no integrated helmet files

[near gate]

This only has ecologist suits?

[fleet mesa]

any values missing from both actor damage balance and no integrated helmet files are either using the default ones from the anomaly files or somewhere else in the mods folder

[fleet mesa]

it contains the BR class values in another file

mod_system_items_armors_br_class_rework.ltx

the other values are likely being set in the no integrated helmet files

[fleet mesa]

or this

it's a pain in the ass to have to go through and edit so many files in different locations for the end result you want but it's the only way other than creating your own file and loading it last. will just have to hunt down where the values are being set

[celest forge]

Yeah you can pin the one i uploaded

[fleet mesa]

if you're still unable to find the final values i'd recommend opening the whole mods folder in something like VS code and doing a cross reference search, then check the results against mo2 to see which mod is loaded last then edit that one

[near gate]

So I changed the carrying capacity of the ISG nosorog in G.A.M.M.A. Armors no integrated helmet. Looks like that file exists in two separate places. There's one in the mods folder withing my GAMMA RC3 folder, and another somewhere in the Anomaly folder?

At least I've found the file that seems to affect some of the in-game values. Such a frustrating system. So I need to modify the files in Gamma/mods/ and not the ones that are also present in anomaly/tools/_unpacked

[fleet mesa]

anything in gamma/mods will overwrite vanilla anomaly files (if the mod is enabled)

[naive snow]

Well the concept of MO2 is that it virtualizes the files from the Mods folder directly onto your Anomaly gamedata folder. The Unpacked files are simply the files you extracted from the _DB archives. They have the lowest priority and get overwritten by pretty much anything that exists in the gamedata folder

So the best way to really search for files and see how the game is "compiled" when you hit play is to have Notepad++ or your IDE of choice launching through MO2 so that virtualization happens and you can actually search directly in your Anomaly/gamedata folder for the relevant files

[fleet mesa]

didn't know you could do that actually lol. yea what burn said is much better than doing what I said about cross referencing the whole mods folder in an IDE since you can get false positives this way due to there being mods that are disabled also containing files that adjust armor values

[slow bolt]

Apparently people here didnt know of the english version until i linked it

(its pinned in anomaly)

[naive snow]

Example
For the search result, everything that has a "!" before the brackets means a DLTX that writes to that section
The result where :nosorog_base is means the base section where it is declared and created generally

Hello, anyone has a background on audio modding, trying to put back the COC ost + some of my own, thanks

[wet vessel]

i want to add a new suit to the game a suit witch is already from the game but seperate and with diferent stats. im new to modding and dont know what to do

[storm basin]

u could take a look at other mods that add suits and try to understand it better

in weapons there are ".ltx" files for each weapon in which there are variants inside the file, so if suits work the same way then u could add a variant like that

[storm basin]

also https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/

[pine hatch]

Hello gentlemen, I need your help - I want to completely cut out the vanilla arsenal from anomaly - what do I need to do for this, what and where to edit so that the weapon does not appear either in the debug menu, or among NPCs or merchants (yep, me use a google translator, because my english is shitnes)

[fair canopy]

You need an alpha channel

[storm basin]

could u explain in language for dumb people

[wary scroll]

Hello everyone
So I got a problem which I can't unpack db files
Tools unpacker not working and also axr tools not working too
I want to unpack lost alpha files

[storm basin]

I had that problem with another modpack

axr tools worked for me

but for some files didn't until I moved them to a separate folder

also worth trying different settings in axr tool & starting as admin

[misty mulch]

https://github.com/revolucas/OXR-Texture-Tool any issues if i use this link? like idk "the author is some kind of awful scumbag in anomaly modding"

[wary scroll]

Just not working for me somehow I tried all the ways for this

[misty mulch]

because presumably the unpacker is designed for vanilla anomaly only?

[wary scroll]

I'm not sure really in that case the question is why axr not working

Like I don't have the time report for how long unpacking took and then I just get an empty folder

It also took a long time to fake unpack

[naive snow]

You need to create a new section entry via a DLTX for the armor files. The Anomaly modding book explains DLTX so have a look at the pins

You basically want something like this
But via DLTX

This example creates a new variant of the ISG_nosorog_outfit, so it inherits all of its stats. You can override whichever you want

[wary scroll]

Here I used this and it worked perfectly fine
https://www.moddb.com/games/stalker/downloads/stalker-extractor

[storm basin]

glad that worked for you, I fucked my ass in and out to make it work before

[storm basin]

guys how do you add a weapon to stash pools?

[naive snow]

Add it to the treasure manager list

[storm basin]

uhm where would that be?

[naive snow]

That's the actual name, Treasure_manager.script

[storm basin]

there doesn't seem to be one in gamma, there is this

[naive snow]

The one used in-game is grok_treasure_manger.ltx which contains the definitions

[naive snow]

There is one

Grok's is the list of items, the treasure_manager.script is the actual script

[storm basin]

but what about the ltx one, what would it be doing if I edit it?

[naive snow]

Like I said, it's the list of items.
The logic and script is the script one

If you want to add to it, do via a DLTX otherwise your changes will get squashed every time you update

[storm basin]

so there is a list in the script file correct?

[naive snow]

A basic list for tools kits but that's about it

[storm basin]

as far as I can see there are mentions of maps

but not weapons

[naive snow]

Everything else is in the LTX

[storm basin]

so I don't need to touch the script right

I'm only trying to add a weapon to the pool of stashes

[naive snow]

Then modify the list

[storm basin]

so if the name of a weapon isn't there

that means it can't spawn right?

cuz there are names with ; before them

[naive snow]

in stashes, correct

Could still spawn as part of the scripted spawns or if it's the loadout files

[storm basin]

[possible_items]

this is what I'd have to include in my ltx

as far as I can see

and the weapon name of course

[naive snow]

![possible_items]

and make your DLTX at the right spot/right name

[storm basin]

name meaning mod_system or there is something else?

[naive snow]

The name changes based on where the config file you're trying to edit is

It's all written in the modding book in the DLTX section + tools to figure out the correct name and placement of your file

[storm basin]

the thingy linked in that book doesn't open for me 💀 could you tell me what would the appropriate naming thing after mod_ be for treasure manager ltx?

[naive snow]

I haven't the faintest of clues. Try another browser or something

[storm basin]

I meant the program itself

ltxdiff

[naive snow]

You don't actually run the exe, you navigate to it via CMD and then use it like it's done in the 3.Tools section describes

[storm basin]

doesn't seem to work for me

cmd doesn't recognize ltxdiff or something along the lines it says

[naive snow]

What line are you actually punching in?

[storm basin]

ltxdiff findroot

[naive snow]

You did navigate to the folder where you extracted it?

[storm basin]

wdym

it doesn't say that I need to navigate to the ltxdiff file itself

[naive snow]

The CMD path you're executing from

[naive snow]

To execute an EXE from cmd, you need to navigate to it at the very least

[storm basin]

yeah but the command example

doesn't have anything like that

[naive snow]

Because it's not part of it?

It's standard cmd stuff

[storm basin]

so what would I have to add to the example

[naive snow]

Nothing, you just need to navigate to the LTXDiff.exe you extracted with your CMD

[storm basin]

now it says the file doesn't exist

[naive snow]

Hard to tell if you even have the right path with this cropped screenshot

[naive snow]

No I mean the full command you've been punching in

[naive snow]

Okay so messed up all 3 paths

[storm basin]

I'm pretty sure it worked now

but tell me whats wrong anyway

[naive snow]

So your base folder is where you ran your c:\Anomaly\Tools\_unpacked
The mod folder is where you installed gamma, C:\Gamma\mods\[Name of your mod]
and the relative path would be configs\items\settings\grok_treasure_manager.ltx

[storm basin]

first one where I ran

so where the unpack.bat is

or where the files ended up?

[naive snow]

Wherever your _unpacked folder ended up, if you've modified the output path, point it there

[storm basin]

again the file doesn't exist

is that the result below? lmao

[naive snow]

That unpacked location is wild

[storm basin]

I mean the npc loadout mod_ thing is mod_system

so would it not be the same for this one?

its in the same folder

[naive snow]

Try it out, find out

[misty mulch]

correct, you would be modifying the treasure manager ltx

as for how to tell, the tool is already in anomaly tools folder i believe, LTXDiff

[naive snow]

Nay, there's only the converter and unpackers

[misty mulch]

oh then get it lmao

https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/addons/dltx.html ok that was fun and interesting

download the ltxdiff file, open a powershell window in its folder (shift + rightclick is your friend), run the command LTXDiff findroot "[Base Folder]" "[Mod Folder]" "[Relative Path to File That You Are Trying To Modify]"

...does that even work on a mod-added config?

i mean it should right

[naive snow]

Mod folder would be mod that adds that particular ltx?

[misty mulch]

yeah it doesn't work

b/c of the folder virtualization

[naive snow]

I tried for funzies adding CMD as a program to launch through MO2, even then it won't spit out the right thing

[misty mulch]

yeah i don't think it works. a direct file replacement would work though

just make a mod that has its own copy of the grok_treasure_manager.ltx that overwrites

[naive snow]

I checked and the virutalization actually works, you can navigate up and down your compiled anomaly folder

[misty mulch]

b/c it doesn't load through the regular ltx system script, it's called specifically in the treasure manager script provided by the rare stash balance mod

so i don't think it works using the "regular" ltx system, is my guess

just do a direct file overwrite, if this is a mod for personal use it won't matter much and it's not as if there's a lot of other mods trying to change the same file

[naive snow]

But muh correct modding practices...

[simple mica]

Guys, can anyone tell me how to export video with sound to ogm format? Well, for the main menu.

[simple scaffold]

that's the entier point of the find root utility. the root of things included in system is obviusly system.

[faint plaza]

I'm trying to mod the RAPTR to shoot 23x75. Only the shrapnel shells show up and not the barrikada. Any ideas? On the item it shows the slot for the barrikada shells but there's no picture and i can't load it into the gun. Thanks!

[simple scaffold]

really that doesn't work? it should. what path are you giving it?

[misty mulch]

what i'm saying is, trying to run ltxdiff on grok_treasure_manager.ltx does not work at all, given that this ltx is added by a mod and called explicitly by a script with the line

ini_treasure = ini_file("items\\settings\\grok_treasure_manager.ltx")

so the q is "would this even be DLTX-able"

[simple scaffold]

yes. gamedata/configs/items/settings/mod_grok_treasure_manager_yournamehere.ltx

if you know what script is loading it then you know the root. no tool needed.

the tools is for random ass base game ltx that are imported into some root ltx loaded by a base game script.

[misty mulch]

@storm basin well here's your answer

[storm basin]

so basically mod_x

x is the name of the script

is that right?

[misty mulch]

name of the config, and in this case, yes

not a script

follow the file structure + file name that raven posted

[storm basin]

name of the config

so then

grok_treasure_manager is the name of the config

just to be clear, what is system then?

[simple scaffold]

gamedata/config/system.ltx

the root of the ltx file for anything that can get spawned. 90% of the OG configs are part of system. Anomaly added systems like deathmanager have thier own ltx. and some addons as well. Mags redux forinstance has a multifolder ltx tree.

[simple scaffold]

dltxfiles always target an ltx and must be in the same folder as that target ltx and that target ltx must be a root ltx. meaning ltx loaded by script or engine directly, not one imported into another ltx.

mod_ltxname_customname.ltx

it's just that system is what 99% of dltx files modify so ppl don't realize that the middle part is a variable. an important variable.

[storm basin]

ty

[simple scaffold]

of course the documentation makes this clear. it also explains how to figure out what a root ltx is. it can just be a pain to find it hence the tool.

i can generaly tell by looking at the folder the ltx is in if it is root or leave and what its root might be. but that is mostly experiance

[storm basin]

guys how would you replace the sound of the laser turning on/off?

[fair inlet]

sounds\interface\inv_torch
if you want it to use dedicated sound then edit the bas laser script

[storm basin]

ty

[storm basin]

wait the bas laser u mentioned, is just because gamma?

oh wait u meant

for it to use another sound

not the one in anomaly

[fair inlet]

I mean it shares the sound with the flashlight

or maybe it doesn't idk

[storm basin]

OHHH thats what u mean

[slow bolt]

That's not the tool they are talking about? They are using SIE

[formal minnow]

Yo guys question

Is there a mod which you can switch your mask into a helmet

by pressing a key

or lets say a suit into a much armored suit you can dress quickly

[slow bolt]

No

That sounds cringe

Either way this is not the place to ask for mods

[young hemlock]

I want to make an option to join a faction when you get 2k goodwill with them, unless playing zombie and monolith, where can I start?

[misty mulch]

sie is included in there

[slow bolt]

Ah, well you might wanna pin both. Ngl you only really want SIE most of the time

[young hemlock]

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

how do people make selecting different options when installing a mod in mo2 possible?

[timber cedar]

could probably use https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/6821

[storm basin]

I'm trying to make like a very simple thing

where it's you drag your zip

and it gives you 3 checkmark options

and once u choose one u can install

is that fomod?

[random fulcrum]

nah that's bain

make folders with the names of the options

inside them put stuff with the correct paths

that's it

[storm basin]

yeah thats the one I need

[storm basin]

and those three folders would be the very first things?

or there is a bigger folder in which those 3 go?

[random fulcrum]

i just told you exactly what you need to do

besides compressing the folders into a zip file

but that's beyond obvious

[storm basin]

what is "artefact" in ui_inventory_16.xml? 🤔

[random fulcrum]

mbic that's a comment

[hardy hound]

I never read something bad about alundaio

[random fulcrum]

that handguard has like 90% of the polygons on the model

[inner rose]

and the handguard could probably be convincingly done with a bump map (dunno if x-ray does bump maps though)

[celest forge]

It does but they only show up against lighting

[storm basin]

yo guys is it even possible to make the zone of the equipment like this?

so that the zone of the belt doesn't get impacted (all of this is about ui_equipment_16.ltx)

zone of the equipment would be cont_equ
and zone of the belt is cont_belt

what happens is when you have the zone of the equipment over the belt, you end up not being able to hover over the items in the belt like you could with anything (no description/highlighter)

[slow bolt]

They are not supposed to overlap obviously

[storm basin]

yeah I get that

but if it's possible to make belt's zone a priority somehow

this would work fine

[slow bolt]

hello guys, I have an idea of small yet immersive nade sfx addon about nade sfx.

sfx are prepared and it basically works but I'd like to include two more features which need some scripting.

• implementing russian nades' fuse ignition sound :
  put a mono channel sfx so it will have directions and different sound strength from range, or I could try to even make a sound layer for this

• implementing collision sound for different surfaces :
  put some mono channel sfx for different nade landing sounds for different terrains

all I can do is sharing this idea and do some work for sfx
if anyone interested, plz help me out.

[gritty lark]

Any idea how to edit that? There is no line about how much carry weight carry capacity artifacts give, it's like it's in a different file but I can't find it

Setting inv_weight to negative crashes the game ofc

[slow bolt]

You are looking at the wrong file

This just adjusts their weight, cost, etc

[gritty lark]

And resistances
Everything except carry weight buff, funny

[slow bolt]

Boosters use boost_max_weight for the max weight boost

probably different for artefacts

[gritty lark]

For attachments it's additional_inventory_weight

Ye that's it
Thankfully this file seemingly overrides whatever I was looking for so it didn't break anything

[slow bolt]

then there it is

[near gate]

If I edit the RAPTR ammo, it doesn't correctly display in the ammunition selection wheel. I thought I could replace the default ammunition types entirely, but that crashed the game. I looked a the pinned messages but I don't think I saw something relating to changing existing weapon files

[fair inlet]

this mod has config example for editing materials https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1265078017638535198

as for fuse I just put the sound in snd_throw

[coral brook]

ohh it already existed!
thanks, I will check it out
and yeah for the fuse sfx, it can be just in snd_throw
but I was wondering if it can be done in a more complicated way.. not sure if that's gonna be worth for trouble tho hahah

[soft burrow]

I gotta try running vs code from mod organizer someday

[slow bolt]

Shouldn't be hard. Just need to launch it from mo2

Then you should be able to naturally navigate to the virtual folder

[storm basin]

yo guys is it possible to delay a sound in a weapon sound?

like lets say I want to add a random ass sound to the chain of sounds in a config for a weapon sound, but I want it to happen delayed

[fair inlet]

what kind of sound

[storm basin]

doesn't matter how suitable it is, I just wanna know if it's possible to delay it

[fair inlet]

I mean you can edit any sound file with delay
but if you want to delay via config it depends on sound type

[storm basin]

what types are u referring to?

the format of the file is not it surely so then what else

I wanna add a sound to shit like this

and delay it

[fair inlet]

third value is delay in seconds

[storm basin]

second is volume?

[fair inlet]

yes but it doesn't work in sections

[storm basin]

wdym in sections

[fair inlet]

when there are multiple layers it's sections

[coral brook]

uh speaking of sound layer I've got a question heh

so I guess snd_1_layer is closest sound, the higher number, the further sound it is.

so if a sound is played from a certain distance, then will the first to X th layers cut out and only remaining higher number layers gonna be played?
I wonder if I am assuming it correctly

[fair inlet]

all layers are played
their distance depends on sound comments only

[coral brook]

ah so sound layer is about just playing multiple sfx at once, that simple

[fair inlet]

yes

[coral brook]

thank you!

oh I remembered another one,
to manage something after actor throwing a nade, what callback should be used?
well this is the fuse sfx related thing.. and I am trying to figure a way out, while knowing nothing about scripting 🥲

[fair inlet]

what's the point of adding scripted sounds for actor?
you can't add distant sounds or anything

function actor_on_hud_animation_play(anm_table, wpn)
    if IsGrenade(wpn) and anm_table.anm_name == "anm_throw" then
    end
end

[coral brook]

oh! thank you very much
I hate to bother you too much but
I suppose there's something more needed to make the sound played from the thrown nade's in-game location?

[fair inlet]

yeah I don't know how to do that, I'd stick to single snd_throw sound

[coral brook]

guess that's the hard part or maybe something not available then

[fair inlet]

i don't see any suitable npc callbacks

[storm basin]

should u turn on mip maps when saving a UI file in paint? 🤔

[random fulcrum]

that fucks ui elements when playing with lower textute quality options

but maybe i just didn't know how to do it properly but that's my experience with it

[sacred token]

I would do it if the original has mip maps. Just my opinion tbh

[random fulcrum]

that too

[glad mirage]

Mipmaps really fuck you over if you play on lower textute detail

[coral brook]

guess I should just do as what you say and using your addon to have collision sound at least.
much thanks for help bro 🙏

[random fulcrum]

could devise something devious like intercepting the grenade spawning

[coral brook]

[random fulcrum]

what i just said

[winter mist]

I wonder when we can make a working backpack 3d model in game

[celest forge]

That's a core feature of FDDA

IT's just not enabled because it causes busyhands a lot

Allegedly

[slow bolt]

[simple scaffold]

it doesn't. it gets broken when busy hands occurs and vary obvious so ppl would notice that and blame it.

[celest forge]

Hence, allegedly

[simple scaffold]

i could be wrong but no one has reported fddaddada to me

[celest forge]

I don't play gamma so i'm not a busyhands victim, I have the backpack thing in my game and it works fine ngl

[simple scaffold]

and i am probably the best as sight reading code for this issue. and did look into fadadadada

did not see a smoking gun. i suspect it was just being broken by all teh other buggy code in gamma.

[simple scaffold]

it can happen in vanilla anomaly i have identified two causes there.

[celest forge]

I'm sure it can

It's just probably very rare

I've never had that happen

[simple scaffold]

its rare enough that most ppl probbly wouldn't see it without my script yelling about it. yeah

[near gate]

If I edit the RAPTR ammo, it doesn't correctly display in the ammunition selection wheel. I thought I could replace the default ammunition types entirely, but that crashed the game. I looked a the pinned messages but I don't think I saw something relating to changing existing weapon files

As far as I can tell there's only the one file to edit so I'm not sure what causes the crash if I completely replace all of the original ammo options

[storm sinew]

Can i somehow change the speed of the how time passes in the game? For example make one day in the game actually be 24 hours? Or less or more

[fair canopy]

yes. search for alife ltx

[storm sinew]

In game files or where?

[slow bolt]

not without causing bad effects

game is not meant to be modified like that

[storm sinew]

Oh got it. Thanks 🙏

[near gate]

Ok so I found 5 different files for the RAPTR. I edited the ammo for each so they were identical but it looks like deleting the mentions of bad/very bad ammo is causing the game to crash while loading a save?

Nothing else has been edited apart from deleting the bad ammo listed and adding the shrapnel ammo

[exotic pendant]

they should make a mod similar to the mag redux where as you continue to put bullets in a mag it gets slower due to the pressure increasing

[celest forge]

This is the 8th layer of tarkov immersion realism brain rot that i've been seeking in the mountains for millenia

[fair canopy]

X chance to shit yourself mid packing and drop all your ammo on the ground

[faint sable]

that be epic

[lilac idol]

X chance of spawning 10 chimeras at your back when pressing the reload button

[ivory ivy]

Would it be possible for me to port over weapon mod's animations from fallout new vegas?

[naive snow]

The game needs to have the bad ammo listed too for every time of ammo (bad and very bad). What's done by the mod is that it hides the bad and very bad variants and deletes them from inventories instead

[near gate]

I just figured this out right before you sent this. It was stressing me out for ages and I thought I needed to list the bad ammo stuff. I guess it didn't click initially because I never saw any mention of bad ammo for the 23x75 ammo types.

Thanks for helping me solve it though. Much appreciated

[tawny stream]

No, you'd have to re-rig the model once you got it converted and imported.

[coral brook]

damn, I forgot which one was delay
snd_something = something, 1.0, 0.8

first or second?

ah okay the first one was delay ugh

[gritty lichen]

Is there any way to look up the thirst and hunger values? I want to test something and relying on the visual bars is never a good idea

[pine hatch]

Hi, I saw that in gamma changed the list of weapons given out in the arena in the bar - what script is responsible for giving weapons to the player?

[supple tulip]

When adjusting the max uses of a single use item, the white marks on the inventory icon do not appear to show that it now has more than 1 use. How would I go about adding those? Is it related to icons?

[ivory ivy]

Okay
That's good to know

[stuck wagon]

i wanna pitch a mod idea to someone who know how to. any help?

[hoary agate]

Anyone know if I can edit and make a custom portrait for my character?

[languid grove]

whats the difference about spawn num?

[coral brook]

guys, anyone fancy having some indoor shooting/exploding sound effects? which is lacking from Anomaly, currently.
I suppose this is doable in a certain level by using in-game coordinates to define some indoor areas to play different sound effects.

surely it would be quite hard to cover entire indoor space in the whole maps, but at least this should be doable for some places,
so starting from the most "popular" indoor places should be not bad I suppose.

problem is, I am not good enough to do this on my own,
I'll need some help (especially script part)
and I can do what I can, and perhaps this can be a project for much better immersion after all.

unless this will be something added for Anomaly 1.6..

[naive snow]

Just ray cast to see if there's a ceiling collider and at least some walls in the cardinal directions of yourself to get a basic idea of if you're within a room or at the minimum if there's a roof above your head. You can condition the thing with a minimum number of walls too if you want to make it more robust

[near gate]

It should change. I found that the items I had in my inventory at the time of the change being made stayed at their current number, but new instances displayed more.

Also, are you editing the correct file? I was modifying some repair item values and found that there were two files for repair items

[coral brook]

actually, I was thinking of stealing stuff from TB's additional safe zone mod, to let the game define some indoor area
however, I just know nothing about writing scripts, maybe I could try to learn it, but I wonder if that'd be any good idea tho.

so I have guessed that I should focus on what I can do
if I just try to make everything done all by myself, it wouldn't progress well

so I can't even make a good use of already existing snippets
and this one would be rather bigger than a simple addon
so hopefully someone who knows about coding would get interested and gimme a hand, then this can be started
I can do the sound editing part and a bit more
but no coding

so please if anyone interested, knows how to write some scripts, and also have some time to burn somehow
then let's do this together
otherwise, ||I shall just finish my small sfx stuff and call it a year.||

[supple tulip]

i created a new file to adjust some medical items. i noticed that the items that already had the white marks updated properly but single use items did not

[near gate]

Did you add something like a max_uses = line? I've not experimented with changing single-use items to multi-use before

[supple tulip]

yea thats how i increased the amount. The changes work for everything. Its just the single use items dont have a white notch indicating the extra uses but I can still use it more than once

so its not a huge deal if I cant easily get the remaining uses markers to appear because it still works without it. It would just be nice

[oak estuary]

Hello everyone , I have one idea, but i don't know how to do it. For myself i want to balance out proto_exo to play with them even once , by making them repair by heavy armor repair kit , but i can't find where to modify this , only found file to modify stats of armors but nothing more .Thx in advance

[shell grail]

Does Global Texture Rework work with GAMMA?

[slow bolt]

yes

[naive plaza]

UBGL and canted sights are tied together in a cyclical way, so then it should be possible to add a mod that you can bind a key to a select "aim position" right?

Because right now it goes:
Main sight -> canted sight -> UBGL
So a script with a keybind to select the position should be possible no?

Does anyone know where the script or code that handels that is in the project?

[slow bolt]

That is handled in engine

doubt you will mod that

[random fulcrum]

there are some script exposed functions that you can use to check if the gun is being held in alt aim or in gl mode

[naive plaza]

Could you point me to which ones they are or what they are called or where they should be?

[random fulcrum]

nah

[quasi narwhal]

didn't even realize you could check the alt too and i needed that for a script, thx for the tip

[desert solar]

How can I get .ogf files into blender?
Trying to import a mod made for gamma into blender with an addon for it just gives me a long error message, but the models work in gamma.

[slow bolt]

Look for the modding book in pins

you are missing info

[desert solar]

ok one second

[storm basin]

which app edits comments in .ogg files?

[slow bolt]

sav&T

[desert solar]

Damn i just looked into it, its my fault- blender xray is only compatible with version 2.77-3.4 of blender and I have 4.0.

Is there a version thats compatible with newest version of blender?

[storm basin]

ty

[slow bolt]

any version before 4.0

no

[desert solar]

ah ok ill downgrade

[storm basin]

guys why is audacitys dogshit ui blocking my audio starting position?

[slow bolt]

what?

[storm basin]

see the timer above

[slow bolt]

so you are having a skill issue

[storm basin]

ye

[slow bolt]

doesnt do that for me. So you managed to press some button

[storm basin]

anyone knows why a sound file could just straight up not play? was replaced with a .ogg file, didn't need any comments, proper location and was no need for any config changes

same name same everything

could it be that the sound is too loud for the game? lmao

[random fulcrum]

for starters it needs the comment

also check the sample rate

it has to be 44.1khz

[storm basin]

its a menu sound so I didn’t add anything

[storm basin]

wait 48 just won’t play?

[slow bolt]

read the modding book

[quasi narwhal]

just exporting the audio from audacity won't work

otherwise the engine won't know how it should play the audio

[storm basin]

even if it’s a menu sound?

[quasi narwhal]

well, it's going to be played through the engine won't it

[storm basin]

nah it works just fine at 44.1

that was the issue

[storm basin]

anyone knows the name of the scoping in/out sound?

how hard would it be to make a sound of scoping in and replace it for like all sounds basically?

I see EFT rattle mod in gamma has a script file which I assume is the only way

[fair inlet]

weapons\rattle\aimout\aim_out_ and aimin\aim_in_

[storm basin]

through that mod is the only way right?

[fair inlet]

wdym
you can just replace the files

[storm basin]

ye nvm about that question

[fluid wharf]

What font is this?

[random fulcrum]

maybe ask cr3pis about it

[storm basin]

unironically looks like minecraft font

[fluid wharf]

found it!
#883097205710389288 message

Well no, the S looks different. Close enough

[random fulcrum]

idk dude to be honest i just drew the letters on top of the icon when i did some of the old ammo type mods

didn't know what font it was and didn't want to ask cr3pis

[surreal gust]

boom

[storm basin]

grippin it

[left heart]

@misty mulch

[misty mulch]

the answer is "yes since you also have to manually adjust its weapon position"

well, "manually define"

just copy paste the thing from the other pso scope and change the section name to match the item ID for the version you're adding ig

unless you want to painstakingly actually fix its hud position

[left heart]

huh

will try

[storm basin]

anyone knows why laser sound that I replaced with is lower pitched when you turn off the laser

afaik the one in gamma is same pitch every time

[fair inlet]

it's not

pitch is changed in the script

[storm basin]

which one?

[fair inlet]

bas_laser something

[storm basin]

anyone knows how hard is it to make a 4:3 file for a UI? lol

I have a 16:9 file that's completely fine

do you legit have to reposition EVERYTHING?

[storm basin]

this one?

[fair inlet]

yes

[storm basin]

don't see anything about a pitch there

this maybe?

[fair inlet]

frequency is pitch yes

[storm basin]

ty

[regal bolt]

it isn't

and shittalking audacity is crazy

[celest forge]

Any way I can make Strelok and his two goons virtually invincible

Like buffing their armor to insane levels or increasing their max hp?

Where's the LTX file that defines that for important npcs?

[slow bolt]

you could use the invincible companions thing

and turn it off afterwards

[celest forge]

turn it off afterwards

btw your fdda thing makes my game crash

[slow bolt]

so report the problem

[slow bolt]

You can use this script. it has them all

Hello everyone
So I wanted to know how to make cube maps in the cop SDK
Or let's say, is that even possible?
Like I have an option for making cube map
But every time I try to make one I get an error and it says power idk what and then SDK fly to heaven

[restive cradle]

Do someone have an idea what i have to edit to reduce the crazy amount of controller schools (i faced up 8-10 at once) chimera (i faced up to 5-6 at once) groups in the northern parts of the map?

[ruby dust]

i don't tink you have to edit anything

[lilac idol]

that shouldn't really happen if you didn't change any of the zcp parameters

[restive cradle]

For sure it happened not just once. I do play GAMMA alot and in pripyat and outskirts it gets complete bonkers. And no, i did not change anything. So what do i have to do to lower these spawns?

[misty mulch]

zip up whichever folder contains the gamedata folder. share that zip file. done

[drowsy scarab]

Can the NPC surrender mechanic be activated in some way? I think it is disabled in Gamma

[storm basin]

just wondering, does it not already or you are talking about some other hk416 mod?

[regal bolt]

it doesnt already im 99% sure

[storm basin]

did u not find it after a long time or

[regal bolt]

i went into debug menu

spawned like hundreds of mercs

none had an hk416

and i saw a ton of messages saying it doesnt spawn

[storm basin]

u can change the loadouts in npc loadouts mod in gamma

hk416 is not in the list of mercs

that's weird

[regal bolt]

theres a mod for loadouts?

[storm basin]

in gamma by default

thx for letting me know thats literally one of my fav guns that I modded heavily and it would've been too stupid to not have a possibility of getting it, lmao

why would a vanilla gun be excluded is what I'm wondering about

[regal bolt]

yeah no i have no idea

its my favourite weapon too

no loadout settings for mercs?

or am i blind

[storm basin]

killer is the mercs

[regal bolt]

interesting choice of name

i can check if it doesnt

nope

[storm basin]

I'll add it to stash pool too just in case

[regal bolt]

only xm7 m4 etc

what is the wpn name of it 😭

[storm basin]

wpn_hk416

[regal bolt]

installing a mod that completely overhauls it doesnt change the name right

[storm basin]

u would have to add it to primary list of each rank

if the weapon is in debug per usual u can make it spawn

and u can see its name in debug

[regal bolt]

i will just add it to like

every merc

since they can spawn with m4´s too

[storm basin]

yea that will work

[lilac idol]

because both the model and animations are dogshit, so there's no real reason to use it

[regal bolt]

i mean, there are some good remodels of it

[lilac idol]

to add it back just make an ltx with the npc loadouts

[storm basin]

that's true for the vanilla one, but if u replace it with a better one it becomes insanely good looking

[regal bolt]

yeah i have a mod that completely replaces it

[lilac idol]

make an ltx for the NPC loadouts then if you want it to spawn

[regal bolt]

what does this mean

after the weapon names

[lilac idol]

I'm pretty sure that's ammo type and attachments, but I don't know in which order

[regal bolt]

a

how the hell am i gonna find that out-

[storm basin]

copy from m4

[regal bolt]

m4 lets uhh

like a lot more attachment

[lilac idol]

yeah just do that

[regal bolt]

get added

im pretty sure

might break something?

[storm basin]

but I saw that different weapon types had different numbers for some reason, if I wasn't blind

[lilac idol]

then just put :r:r

r means random

[regal bolt]

like this?

[lilac idol]

ig that could do

I don't know what would be the optimal options for that gun

[storm basin]

most weapons have

:r:0

[regal bolt]

i have no idea either since the mod also changes what attachments you can put on the hk

[storm basin]

that I'm seeing

[regal bolt]

like acog eotech and the uhh

the funny sight

i have no idea

forgor the name

that uhh

that scope that gets used with aks sometimes

yes

uhmm

my brain isnt braining my bad

[lilac idol]

just copy all the M4 loadouts configs and change the id

it's way easier and faster that way

just click ctrl+f and set replace m4_siber with hk416

[regal bolt]

i just copy and paste this wpn_hk416:r:r

i dont mind not having attachments spawn on guns

makes the grind more painful

[lilac idol]

if it's set for all guns to be :0:r it's probably for a reason

so just replace what I said

[lilac idol]

and you don't have to add the wpn_ since that's already there

[regal bolt]

this is what it looks like

[lilac idol]

that means no attachments will spawn

[regal bolt]

yea

[lilac idol]

keep it like that

[regal bolt]

should i put the hk416 into the starting loadout for the funnies

wth 💀

[storm basin]

need someone to confirm what those numbers mean a 100%

[regal bolt]

i think 0 means that no attachments will spawn

and r means they randomly spawn

randomly selected

and the numbers after that could mean a specific attachment
