[cerulean mantle]

Original

[random fulcrum]

but why replace a nice dialog to introduce the main questline with a sauceless summary of shadow of chernobyl

[cerulean mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/avengers-thanos-infinity-stone-infinity-gauntlet-i-have-the-power-gif-17925552

[misty mulch]

one sounds like dialogue, the other sounds like the tvtropes recap ngl

[random fulcrum]

my thoughts exactly

it's like what you'd read on the back of a game box

[misty mulch]

like why would sid spill the exact plot of soc to a random no-name stalker, that he's probably trying to scam for more money

the shorter version gives your character 0 reason to care, you'd only care if the player cares about strelok. whereas the original one makes it super clear, even if your character doesn't care about the legend of this strelok guy there's money in it
and the player can go play SOC/read wikipedia/watch a lore vid

[random fulcrum]

sid's introduction to mortal sin being "back during the development of stalker: shadow of chernobyl there was a faction that eventually got cut from the final game"

[slow bolt]

[surreal gust]

Finally fixed this shit

The base has a mechanic, a barman, a medic, and a quest npc

[slow bolt]

Dayum

looks good

[surreal gust]

Gotta reduce the npc spawn count and add more mutant spawns

There are shit tons of npc's not gonna lie

[lethal garden]

So, I customized my own reticles for the scopes provided in the RWAP Main Pack, but in-game they suddenly started appearing like this. I double checked the dds crosshair texture files, and theyre normal.

Any idea what may be the culprit?

Its only the RWAP crosshairs, all else if fine.

[old berry]

whats wrong exactly

[old berry]

that grey line?

[lethal garden]

Heres the weapon crosshair, refer to how it appears in-game. The whole texture in-game is shaded, fairly dark, contrary to how the texture file appears

No no, sorry

I added that myself

[old berry]

can you post the dds so i can take a look at it

[lethal garden]

Heres how a scope should appear, outside of the scope is shaded, the inside of the scope is clear, aside from the reticle.

Here is the DDS file.

In game, the whole screen is shaded, refer to the two photos i posted first.

Thank you for your patience Bert.

Whole screen is shaded with grey.

Just suddenly started occurring. Playing with DX9.

[old berry]

might be a dx issue

[lethal garden]

Here is a video depicting my issue.

[slow bolt]

HL 1 looking ass

[lethal garden]

Its been working absolutely fine on DX8/9

[old berry]

christ how trash is your pc lol

[lethal garden]

Integrated GPU lol

I mean its a 2D shader scope, I dont believe the DirectX version would affect it.

Maybe something with the XML file?

[old berry]

i dont think its the issue with the texture itself since you can see the contrast between the scope and outside

[lethal garden]

Right.

[old berry]

might be 2dss related

[lethal garden]

Okay, well, thanks for the assistance!

[fair canopy]

did you set the scope shadow ?

[lethal garden]

Not sure. I usually just open the DDS files for crosshairs and edit them to my liking.

Right now, im messing with the XML files trying to work something out

[fair canopy]

you have to add an entry for your scope in scope radii script

and then set the scope radius there

that might be your issue but idk

[lethal garden]

Oh I see! Okay thanks man!

[keen sun]

Does anyone know if there's a way to troubleshoot what files are loaded in what order? I'm trying to get a mod_npc_loadouts_....ltx file to work, but whatever I do it's not working.

Also tried a mod_system_zzzzzzzzzzz... way of doing it, but it simply won't spawn NPC's with the newly added weapons (I checked by using the debug menu to constantly spawn NPC's).

Example of how I added the guns:

![army_experienced_primary]
wpn_ak104_pmc:r:r
wpn_ak104_pmc2:r:r

[fathom wagon]

NPC loadout DLTX files will only interfere with one another if one of the DLTX files specifically excludes the line you are trying to add and it loaded before yours, or if they are named the same (for obvious reasons). Since you are adding a new weapon to a loadout, I am pretty sure there isn't a file trying to remove it.

Have you checked that you put the file in the correct directory?

[misty mulch]

mod_npc_loadouts_*.ltx DLTX files get loaded in alphabetical order.

Also, yes, check file path/directory and the file name first before resorting to z-stacking

[lethal garden]

How do I determine what value I should enter for the scope radius?

[heavy anvil]

Is there a specific file that determines which repair kit is needed to fix specific weapons? (i.e. A,B,C,D)

[celest forge]

Each weapon's LTX file

[heavy anvil]

I'm assuming the "repair_type" is what determines it? and pistol is A, shotgun is B, then rifle_5 and rifle_7 are C and D respectively

[random fulcrum]

yeah you guessed everything right

[heavy anvil]

nice, yep, editing that did in fact change it.

now, would it be possible (and this question is from someone unfamiliar with scripting in general, mostly just file editing in the past) to allow an MCM option to change these files and have it take effect in-game?

i.e. I would have a setting for let's say the PM, and a drop down listing A,B,C, and D, and could edit which repair kit the PM used based on what the option is set it to?

obviously, pretty far out of my reach since i'm a scrub, but before i start learning how to script stuff for MCM, I would like to know if it was a wild goose chase to begin with.

I would guess that at the bare minimum, you would have to edit the settings in question before you'd load into the game, and otherwise, it just not work at all.

[random fulcrum]

nah there's no setter for that

[heavy anvil]

oh well, i at least figured out how to change the repair kit requirements in general, thanks for the info.

[lethal garden]

Im trying to add smoke particles to the AK12 Monolith, and remove the flame particles. Although I'm seeing no change whatsoever as I remove/alter the particle entries in the LTX.

What changes do I need to make? For there to be ONLY smoke particles when firing.

Thanks for any help. 🙂

[drifting ocean]

Is there a way to change the order of these preset inventory tabs? I'd like to have devices & tools on 2 instead of 6.

[heavy anvil]

Shouldn't the file loaded last take effect over others that change the same thing? Copying the ltx files for w_akm_bas, w_m249, w_rpd, w_rpk, w_sks_molot, and w_sks_tac to a new folder and editing those to what I desire does not change anything in the game. Also, I can't find the ltx file that the wpn_akms_alt uses, and I'm assuming that's the one that spawns in-game, going by the guide made by oflin.

(edit, i copied other weapon ltx files and they did work, like the VSS Vintorez, so that WAS overwritten I guess?)

[random fulcrum]

dltx

[heavy anvil]

took a long time but i finally found it.

[keen sun]

The "alphabetical" seems to fix it. Renaming it to mod_npc_loadouts_zzzz.ltx and putting all factions in there works. Now the next part is, how do I remove guns from the existing one.

For instance, you have 3 adar's:

![army_veteran_primary]
!wpn_adar2_15:0:0
!wpn_adar2_15:0:0
!wpn_adar2_15:r:0

Or will doing this:

![army_veteran_primary]
!wpn_adar2_15

Be sufficient to remove all adar's from the loadouts? Sorry for the many questions 😐

[fair inlet]

use first method

[keen sun]

fml I was hoping the 2nd would work xD the first is a lot more work.

[tawny stream]

Fml is the essence of Anomaly modding

[rocky sphinx]

i apologize if this is a dumb question, just started my first mags redux playthrough, but is there a mod that animates checking how much ammo is in a mag?

[slow bolt]

Ammo check already does that.
Wrong pace for the question

[rocky sphinx]

doesn't show me the animation for some reason

[slow bolt]

Not all weapons have it. Only if the creator of the weapon added those

[rocky sphinx]

i don't use modded weapons

[slow bolt]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1276628021310128262.webp?size=48&quality=lossless&name=Whateverge2

[misty mulch]

mod config menu -> ammo check -> disable "busyhands fix"

[celest forge]

Only like 5 guns have ammo check anims

[dry maple]

Is the weather editor not setting the game time when changing the weather time intentional?

[queen sparrow]

correct

[dry maple]

I think I just figured out why lol

I changed the script to set the level time, and got instakilled by a blowout

[queen sparrow]

how would i go about adding artifact detector sounds unique to each detector?

i see that gamma's grizzly is seperate from the rest and manages its own sounds, but the others in item_devices - they're only split between the different ranks. and devices with bear and beyond only show for rank 2, and veles for rank 3.

would I just need to add the additional previous rank entries into bear and veles? such as rank0 /junk / rank1 / special and then assign different af_sounds for them?
figured it out. method seems to work. still dumbfounded as how to add sounds to veles and svarog since they don't have them by default. dug around in scripts and configs but I couldn't find anything that assigns them.

[lethal garden]

Hey guys, where can I find the LTX files for armors/outfits?

Getting a CTD because of a missing ogf for the actor visual entry.

Gotta change it.

[worldly spoke]

did you find anything by now?

[hoary jolt]

Is there any mod that's manage the drop chances of better condition gears based on rank?

[misty mulch]

Already in gamma. Mod config menu -> drop configuration

[misty mulch]

...why, when the issue is almost certainly a mod you added, and more to the point, almost certainly a result of a bad hands mod/Body Awareness install?

[tawny yoke]

anyone knows where is the BR_class files regarding to helms?

i know mod_system_items_armors_br_class_rework.ltx is for outfits br class but i cant find the one for helmets

[misty mulch]

because "br class" isn't a real stat and is merely given that name when calculated and presented

you're actually looking for ap_res

[tawny yoke]

so do you know where is the files that let you modify ap_res/br_class on helmets?

[misty mulch]

wait gimme a sec

this is the channel for making mods, not for mod support, go to #🔨modded-gamma-support

[misty mulch]

in order to look at the vanilla game reference, you want to unpack the base game files and look at configs/items/outfits/o_helmets.ltx
DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE DIRECTLY.

You will want to learn to make your own DLTX file override, similar to the ones provided in gamma for the outfits, to change the hit_fraction_actor value

"BR Class" = (1 - hit_fraction_actor) * 100

for helmets anyway

[tawny yoke]

ok thx for info

so the value regarding BR class that it shows on helmets are just text? for example exo helm shows 50 br class

[hoary jolt]

I mean better ranked stalkers drop gear or better maintained gear!

[misty mulch]

that is how you would do it. go change the settings in that.

[surreal gust]

Testing barman logic

[misty mulch]

iirc by default the stats aren't dynamically generated, but i've also used a stat display mod for so long, i don't remember

[lethal garden]

Jesus, that was a douche move, but thanks ig.

Maybe I want to change the 3rd person visual

Or stats.

But big help bro. 99% of problems are caused by mods people add.

So good point.

[misty mulch]

if it's crashing because of a missing ogf file, first go-to move would be to make sure that the ogf file being added by the mod is present

because unless you can guarantee the issue is that specific file, and isolate it down to that, you are just setting yourself up to get a whole chain of those issues

if you actually just want to change the visual mapping, that is a different question, and one that would also require you to change the config files presented by the mod. if you wanted to change outfit stats, that is yet another goal that should be tackled with a different method to either of those two things

so in summary

[misty mulch]

• crashing due to missing .ogf: make sure the ogf is present -> reinstall the mod that is meant to provide it.
• want to change visual mapping: modify/DLTX the visual mapping configs provided by whatever visual mod is relevant (this will be different depending on whether you want to change hands or legs)
• want to change outfit stats: make your own DLTX override entirely

different questions. different answers. because coming in with "i'm crashing because of a missing mod file, how do i change the config to fix it" is like saying you had issues installing an aftermarket radio in your car and your solution is to rewire the entire infotainment system

[lilac idol]

reload empty variant first version test. and yes, i know it's the exact same animation as the normal reload, i barely have time to do animation and i only feel like doing them once every 2 or 3 days so i ain't doing a completely separate reload for now

btw i need a little help with the release movement and allat, i can't really figure it out

[slow bolt]

Nice

[misty mulch]

oh right also there is no single ltx file that covers all outfits, there's like five or six different dltx files modifying different things about outfit stats/values at any given time.

[static nebula]

I would add some reaction to the tug backwards, seems like it only reacts to the slide going forwards

[lilac idol]

what do you mean with "tug backwards"?

[static nebula]

When they pull the slide backwards to release it, unless I've misunderstood what's going on here 🤔

[lilac idol]

alright ill try that

[slow bolt]

seems right to me

as you need to barely pull it

[static nebula]

Doesn't have to be a huge reaction, it still has some force behind it tho, so even just a little rotation would be enough

[static nebula]

Tone down the movement a bit and maybe add a tiny rotation and I think it'll be good 👍

[lilac idol]

so more like this?

btw when you ask me to modify something i would appreciate if you could refer to the keyframes on the bottom left

[static nebula]

my bad, will try to remember in the future 😅
I don't usually see people with frame counters so I've kind of just learned to describe the animation instead lol

[static nebula]

but yes, I think this is looking pretty good
if you wanted to you might exaggerate the rotation some more but that's probably just personal preference

[lilac idol]

thank you! and I will keep that in mind too

[pastel siren]

I was looking, but maybe not hard enough, but is there a mod to replace the minimap with a simple compass with no waypoints? and maybe have it a bit more "on the screen?" I sorta like raven800's, but its clipping off the screen and a bit large for my taste.

[misty mulch]

cough wrong channel but https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1288202821925212201 note that it's got some bugs

[pastel siren]

ah, was more looking for a flat compass but thats an interesting idea.

I guess I could play around with the code for the raven800 one to see if I can move and resize it

[lunar nimbus]

guys im new to modding, does anyone know which parameter sets min and max possible goodwill from actor to communities?
without guessing please, only if u know 100%

[lunar nimbus]

its not even a joke 😕

realized i can check how trade profiles check it ;] wait no, thats not max, thats just some number

[surreal gust]

i saw that you can change le goodwill number with other factions, it's in #╭📖faq

[lunar nimbus]

its totally not what i asked xd

[surreal gust]

ik, but it might help u idk

[pastel siren]

did a hack edit of raven800's and got this as a result.

[lethal garden]

I just want to change it to an OGF that I know exists. Apologies for the attitude earlier, I woke up instantly and seen your message, I dont know why I got so ill.

Still no luck, the OGF that is "missing" is actors\stalker_dolg\stalker_dolg_beril_8.ogf'

Its provided by DICKs, and is present, and I see nothing conflicting that's relevant.

Tronex has an essay at the bottom of the relation script.

https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata%2Fscripts%2Fgame_relations.script#L1011

I suspect it is this line:
https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata%2Fconfigs%2Fcreatures%2Fgame_relations.ltx#L180

[lunar nimbus]

mm i was asking for parameter that sets the limits ;p
oh, yeah its the one, but i found it already, tnx anyway ;p

[lethal garden]

It was due to a mispell, the path the game is looking for is "beril", the OGF is spelled as "berill"

[winged sierra]

Is there any mod that continues the arena fights/challenges after you’ve completed all the base ones??

[lethal garden]

Hey. Has anyone noticed that when firing full-auto with most 'AK-style' weapons, the rounds tend to impact way above the reticle/crosshair after the 1st and 2nd shot? How can I change this?

[lethal garden]

I never apologized for having an attitude earlier today, I had first woken up, and misinterpreted the context of your message, I am sorry.

[simple scaffold]

Dont fire full auto except and close range. The recoil per shot increases exponentially while the trigger is held. You can't change that without tuning the recoil down to 0

[random fulcrum]

the engine offsets the direction of the bullet's trajectory based on the direction the viewmodel is oriented

so if you start firing before the animation completes, the next shot will start when the weapon is resetting its firing animation

therefore the bullet has a skewed trajectory

this only happens when hipfiring tho

shooting while ads has the bullet always fly straight ahead with the weapon's fire_dispersion_base applied as spread and nothing else

[copper fractal]

Hello, if anyone can point me to the right direcrion id be very appreciative. I am using phantom's tactical endgame weapons and noticed that the aks are all floating below the hands. I'm willing to fix it myself if it's as simple as knowing what file to edit.

I don't even really care if it's the right model I just don't want them floating lol

[forest remnant]

I assume stalker doesn't use pbr textures so what does it use?

[pallid coral]

How to create a font for stalker anomaly or gamma? And what program do I need to use?

[slow bolt]

Open a font mod and see what it has

that is how usually learning goes

[dry maple]

See: #╙🖇mods-making-discussion message
If you get it working and the fonts generated look too light/thin, lmk I added a weight argument but haven't bothered to release it

[wanton tusk]

hey guys, if I wanted to change hip's model do I replace the file in "safer hip model replacer"?

[celest forge]

It's weird, it kinda does

It uses bump maps, which are a mix of the normal map and the specular in the same texture

And it only shows under light

That's why in engine it's called "Gloss factor"

[sudden inlet]

sorry for the ping, but what's the requirement for posting in the #1092834455300866068 ?
Looks like this issue still hadn't been reported

[random fulcrum]

???

[sudden inlet]

I mean, I can't post in suggestions for some reason 😅

[celest forge]

There's a pinned post with the requirements

[sudden inlet]

Nvm, this is because of my novice rank, sorry

[cerulean mantle]

@lunar nimbus
I have a suggestion for your Fatigue mod. After playing half a thousand hours of Death Stranding, I got an idea. Fatigue becoming a two stage thing very much like your Cold System with Cold and Fever.
Fatigue and Exhaustion.
Fatigue working like normal, while Exhaustion happening when Fatigue is above a certain threshold (like 45%). Fatigue can be lowered by sleeping or resting at a bonfire, or even taking certain drugs like it does normally, meanwhile Exhaustion only lowering when you sleep.
Exhaustion caps the lowest level of Fatigue you can achieve. So if you're 45% exhausted, your Fatigue can't go lower than 45%. etc.

And it has a lower reduction rate per hour of sleep.

[lunar nimbus]

i like the idea ;] but dont really wana overhaul any old addons atm

coming up with balanced values is hard, need to sit and think ;[

also the fatigue is one of those mini addons i'd like to keep as simple as possible ;p
(im currently getting lost in my stalker with how many new mechanics addons brought, still cant remember all of them)

[surreal gust]

Da barman has been high af recently

[lilac idol]

doing a lttle testing while i try my hardest to get my ideas together

[lilac idol]

this is pretty meh ngl

[slow bolt]

general idea is good

movements are meh

[lilac idol]

agreed

im just gonna try to improve it a bit

if i don't like it enough ill just start all over again

[old berry]

when you move a gun from left to right try to make y go down a bit during movement to add a bit of weight and to make movement less linear

[celest forge]

Also I wouldn't move the gun that much to the left during the initial movement

In an inspect you want the gun to be close the center

[lilac idol]

[lilac idol]

so something like this maybe?

[static nebula]

the locked up elbow here is a bit uncomfortable

[lilac idol]

oh yeah i haven't touched that yet

[old berry]

kinda so it moves like this slightly

[lilac idol]

im worrying about the gun motions first

[static nebula]

oh, i gotcha

[lilac idol]

like this or should i exxagerate it a bit more?

[old berry]

nah its fine just remember the weight of the gun

[lilac idol]

i mean

realistically it's not way heavier than 1kg

[static nebula]

as far as gun motions go, the big thing that's standing out to me right now is the big upwards rotation around frame ~60 definitely could be toned down, it feels a little floaty/pivoty

[lilac idol]

yeah you're right i missed that

[old berry]

maybe you should just add idle movements instead

[lilac idol]

do you have any examples of that rn?

[old berry]

you know like gun moves up and down when breathing or some twitches

[lilac idol]

ohh that

yeah that's actually a good idea

[old berry]

yeah maybe also make the gun move away from the mag to the right after pulling it out

[lilac idol]

last try for today, im kinda hungry

[old berry]

yeah it feels way more natural

just keep tweakin it

[lilac idol]

maybe the graph editor will save my ass this time

[old berry]

you dont use it? lol

[lilac idol]

although as always, thank you for your help

[lilac idol]

just for the last tweaks

but in this specific action i haven't touched it

[old berry]

i mean i've seen some people that do vm animations that way

[lilac idol]

im just used to do it like that

[cerulean mantle]

Remington 700 MRAA for GAMMA

[sharp acorn]

What values/files affect finding rounds loaded in enemy weapons? In the trilogy games, for example, if you kill an enemy before he fires, you can unload a full mag.

Also it seems GAMMA removes grenades from bodies looted via script, how can I modify this?

[sudden inlet]

Hi, guys, since I don't have exp yet to post in #1092834455300866068 , can I ask someone to post this there?
https://github.com/Grokitach/gamma_large_files_v2/issues/7

[misty mulch]

that one's already been reported, and that specific gun iirc is buggy as hell

[sudden inlet]

Oh, okay, cool, I just suppose there should be many broken guns

Should I close the issue then?

[fair canopy]

yes. its being replaced by a better deagle in the next update

[sudden inlet]

Got it. Let me finish my script to check all other guns and I will close the issue if that was the only one.

[lethal garden]

Can anyone tell me why some weapons, notably some vanilla weapons, zoom when ADS? I've edited 'adjustable scope view' and such to my liking (which is no zoom at all)

Is it something in the LTX of the weapons that I may be missing? I've looked but found nothing there.

[atomic oar]

i dont know if this is the correct place to ask this but is it possible to change the penetration values of certain ammo without alot of modding knowledge? wanting to change a few penetration values on certain ammos across all weapons that fire it.

[lilac idol]

i think it got better

[hoary jolt]

can anyone tell me how to increase repair kit usage no?

[sinful wadi]

Guys would anyone be interested in a x offset slider for the mags redux hud positioning? Cause in my case it was right on top of minimap (in mcm settings i mean)

[lilac idol]

someone translate pls

[novel ruin]

how do I set player radiation level

and also is there a documentation?

[lunar nimbus]

nope, modding book on github only which covers small part of modding

[lunar nimbus]

db.actor.radiation = 0.99

[novel ruin]

Do db.actor:change_radiation(0.99) would do the same? i found it in this post

[novel ruin]

So everyone just figured all the properties and structure by themselves?

[lunar nimbus]

kinda xd we just search scripts or addons that do this or that and see how its done

[lunar nimbus]

could work yeah, that will change its value by argument tho not set to certain value

so for example actor has 0.5 radiation, we do db.actor:change_radiation(-0.1) and it will become 0.4

i suppose it also automatically clamps from 0 to 1

[cerulean mantle]

@lunar nimbus Hey, is it possible to write a script that increases your rate of fire with a certain weapon while ADSing?

[lunar nimbus]

idk

[lunar nimbus]

i dont mod guns

[tulip garden]

Guys I need a help for finding a mod. What are the mod that allows, for example, increasing extra aim if I press macro on my mouse?

Cant find it

[regal bolt]

how hard would it be to make a ammo rebalance mod?

is there somewhere I can look to start working on something like that

[tulip garden]

do u know something about my questiom dude?

((

[tawny stream]

This is pretty simple ltx stuff.

Check this out as an example:
https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1065168136577482753

[tawny stream]

This is not the place you go to ask if a mod exists. This is for making mods.

But no, I have no idea

[tulip garden]

Sorry I know, but I dont know where to ask

Ty man

[west sandal]

hi

after i attach the scope on svu it look like it pulled forward

how to fix this

[brave tartan]

@surreal gust @clever sandal sorry fi I ping wrong person, but was told that ya all are experts in stalker models, more precise .obj files?

would very much appreciate a bit of help with one thing I got big trouble with

[fair inlet]

1. Open Free_ZoomV2_mcm.script
2. Replace line 99 with the following:

sec = ini_sys:r_string_ex(wpn:section(),"parent_section") or wpn:section()```

[west sandal]

thanks it worked

[lilac idol]

sounds aren't my strenght at all lmao, does anyone know if i can tweak how loud sounds are in blender? or do i have to do it in audacity? because these are pretty loud

[lilac idol]

alright i have another question, how do you guys work with rattle or cloth sounds for when nothings really happening? because im left with this for example

[slow bolt]

good

[lilac idol]

thanks but i just feel like it's missing some sounds during transition and all of that

[slow bolt]

well yes

but you'll get em

[lilac idol]

hopefully yeah

oleh gave me some sounds that im trying rn, let's see how it goes

[lilac idol]

what do you think about these

[slow bolt]

A bit too crazy of a bolt sound for this small gun

Sounds like a actual heavy bolt for a gun

[lilac idol]

yeah i have to lower it a bit

[old berry]

i just use legally acquired vegas pro for sounds

[bold walrus]

hey guys, how can I enable alternative sight on a gun?

I made a hud edit to a weapon, in the hud editor I can view the grenade launcher view and set it but in the game since there is no gl attachment for the gun I cannot use the canted view I made

[bold walrus]

thanks, in which file can I find this

nevermind

found it

You're gonna have to play around with these values because it will look really weird when aiming

If there are no alt values the gun won't really do anything when you alt aim.. So you have to manually move it around with hud editor

[bold walrus]

I already changed those I just need to enable alt aim

[near dirge]

Yeah that use alt aim hud should work then

[bold walrus]

do I add the initial line you mentioned to the weapon ltx or the hud file?

use_alt_aim_hud one

its not in the default config of the weapon

[near dirge]

I added mine to the default ltx

[bold walrus]

thank you

[near dirge]

If it doesn't work/crashes then you'll have to DLTX it

[bold walrus]

it worked

thanks a lot mate

[near dirge]

Good stuff

[bold walrus]

ok lowkey about to go insane

the ks23 I did everything, hand position, aim position, alt aim etc, works flawlessly

then I got the fucking shak12

the aim and alt aim settings just don't work

        aim_hud_offset_alt_pos           = -0.080304, 0.003814, -0.067044
        aim_hud_offset_alt_pos_16x9      = -0.080304, 0.003814, -0.067044
        aim_hud_offset_alt_rot           = 0.000156, 0.008283, -0.001275
        aim_hud_offset_alt_rot_16x9      = 0.000156, 0.008283, -0.001275
        aim_hud_offset_pos               = -0.080163, 0.038135, -0.150101
        aim_hud_offset_pos_16x9          = -0.080163, 0.038135, -0.150101
        aim_hud_offset_rot               = 0.003502, 0.00565, 0.001073
        aim_hud_offset_rot_16x9          = 0.003502, 0.00565, 0.001073
        hands_position                   = -0.059829, -0.221948, 0.122375
        hands_position_16x9              = -0.059829, -0.221948, 0.122375```

its all in the file too

the game treats the lines like they exist apart from hands position

despite being at the bottom of the load order

yeah the settings are literally not being applied

nvm it was 3dss apparently

[slow bolt]

it doesnt matter

if you want to make sure your stuff is loaded last - Z stack in front of the name

[near dirge]

Yeah I had this happen too and tbh I have no idea how I fixed it.. I eventually just made a dltx of the positioning and z stacked it.. Not sure if this is what fixed it but it worked eventually.. I sat with that positioning not applying issue for so damn long it was hurting my brain

That repos ltx is literally just this and nothing else..

[bold walrus]

apparently it was caused by 3d shader scopes

[near dirge]

I made it work with 3dss.. I mean, that's what I wanted in the first place.. To add a 3dss scope to the gun..

This gun had no 3dss supported scopes and no canted sight either.. The ADS was a complete mess in terms of positioning and so was the canted sight.. Both started working after doing the above

[bold walrus]

thank you

[near dirge]

It was a lot worse than this but it gives an idea.. With that hud offset editor mod I just enabled Toggle Aim Mode to get the ADS editing done.. Since you don't stay aimed if you open debug..

[bold walrus]

don't worry I don't have any issues with making repos

I just have to stack a fuck ton of Zs apparently

[regal bolt]

Mods Making Discussion

[bold walrus]

would you rather I plague newbies chat with it

[near dirge]

Kinda is mod making since we are making a mod to edit an original z stacking means you are using dltx which means it's a separate "new" mod that will be loaded ontop of the original.. So you are making a mod tbf

[bold walrus]

officially eligible for the modders role

[bold walrus]

ima go fucking insane

[near dirge]

Yup.. It's a pain and I only did 1

[bold walrus]

I'm just trying to do 1 gun

but it has the sup attachment thing on it

ok i did it

the secret was adding 5 more Zs

2 hours of my life I'll never take back

also hold the fuck up

anomaly 1.5.3 got released?

[near dirge]

Welcome to the club.. Took me 2 days just to add a 3dss scope.. And another day to fix the repos

Yeah

Some time ago actually

[bold walrus]

what is new

[near dirge]

I'm not sure really I never looked into it

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/news/stalker-anomaly-version-153-release

[bold walrus]

Wow.

3d pda, now that's groundbreaking

apart from the a-life changes and maybe the new storyline, the user side of things look really lame

[mystic sage]

thats already in vanilla anomaly

so is the alife and story

thats just anomaly the only new stuff is in the highlights in version 1.5.3 section

[bold walrus]

alife got changes

supposedly

wait no its just the old alife update

what is this changelog man

hi 🙂 do you know the name of the mod that changes the hands in the gamma?

[fair canopy]

Thap

[surreal gust]

I just spawned shit tons of artefacts to see if I fucked up something

Looks like everything's working correctly

Took me a couple of hours to do this

[buoyant prairie]

i use it , these hands are not nice, I would like to exchange them for others.

Stalker anomaly 1.5.3 I am translating into Turkish, is there a change in the texts?

[surreal gust]

Look at the changesfrom152to153.txt file

[naive snow]

Because you're using an incompatible blender version and didn't bother checking which version work with PavelBlend

[tawny stream]

Pavel don't care about Blender revisions

[spring mango]

[tawny stream]

Yeah, what's the current version again? (Spoiler:it isn't those.) 4.2 is LTS as well.

Not to say someone should be compelled to support something forever. More that it would be cool if someone took the reins, since most people aren't going to check version requirements and just hit the download button

[quasi narwhal]

read the docs

[slow bolt]

least clueless gamma player

It only works up to version 4

[tawny stream]

3.6 LTS if that screenshot up there is still current. Since 4.2 is the current version, I'm struggling to see where I was incorrect or misinformed.

[slow bolt]

You said it didnt care. But it does - only supports up to 4.0

Current version that you download is 4.2

[tawny stream]

Well yes, but no. I meant Pavel himself doesn't care because he stopped updating the plugin.

But I see where it wasn't clear

[sudden inlet]

Hi, when 🙂

[empty wyvern]

any reason why the debug map sometimes teleports me to the swamp?

[celest forge]

It has an invisible teleporter behind one of the pillars

Also Sunn amps sound like shit and no one likes doom

[empty wyvern]

now that busyhands killed blood pools i kind of missed them. i added a script that adds a random blood wallmark under an npc with the on hit callback. that should drastically lower chances of busyhands since its not an actor update right?

see if this works. it should change just the addon list (and sub menus) but leave the actual settings pages alone.

file name was wrong. i edited it.

[narrow coyote]

IDK how to do that in mo2

[simple scaffold]

under the launch button. there is a tab called data. click that and there is a search box at the bottom of it. enter the script name there.

[narrow coyote]

ty. it is from modded exes

[simple scaffold]

should be able to right click on the file and have it show it to you in windows. do that with the top one in this picture and drop it on this chat. for the life of me i cannot find a version of that script that has a call to getRoot on line 623 so i am courious

try this hack

that xml is bad, i'll handle this better in next update

[simple scaffold]

[narrow coyote]

it is ok?

[simple scaffold]

well i feel a little better about my intuition that this wasn't going to be as simple as it looked.

[simple scaffold]

yeah it is an inline function. the open is RegisterScriptCallback(

basically dumping an entire function definition into the call to RegisterScriptCallback( rather than defining it first and giving RegisterScriptCallback( the name. the end) is the end of the function definition and the close paren for the call to RegisterScriptCallback(.

but you are right it does always look odd.

[narrow coyote]

@simple scaffold still the same error

[simple scaffold]

@steady apex is this a dead end until you update?

i can keep going on the changing the entire game language thing.

[steady apex]

yeah probably

[woeful nexus]

Where do they offer an addon to add to an update? I forgot already

[steady apex]

i edited the script above

if it sitll doesnt work then yea wait for update

in vanilla only two xmls are bad

it is working! thank u!

[lilac idol]

how do you guys do proper icons?? this is the render i took and then how it looks like after the scaling, literal pixel art

[random fulcrum]

think about that you're seeing it with a lot of zoom

in game it's a small portion of the screen

[lilac idol]

i didn't think about that

[faint sable]

I like using leveling to tone it up a bit and doing some small lighting settings via photoshop for it before I send it through

but most I see use HDRI in blender first for the image

[lilac idol]

i don't own photoshop

[weary root]

anomaly support bc7?

[spring mango]

[faint sable]

you can still tone it up with most paint softwares

like leveling and such I reckon

[lilac idol]

for bump maps apparently yeah, but it's only for dx11. i do plan on doing dx8 patch and allat

[lilac idol]

ill try that out

[fair canopy]

i use photoshop to scale icons. seems to have the best scaling algorithms

[simple scaffold]

I will probably add that next update as a check box in MCM's own settings when modded exes are detected since i can see the value in the idea.

[steady apex]

Neither does he

[fair pollen]

BC7? You know that anomaly doesn't support that, right?

[lilac idol]

it does support bc7 bump maps

the diffuse textures are dxt1

Meh.

Still ain't full bc7 support.

Hi everyone, how can I change my armor values ​​and where do I need to go?

it doesn't work through the editor in the game itself, so I decided to do it manually, but I still couldn't find the necessary folders

[winged sierra]

Would someone help guide me in the right direction on how to edit the arena? More specifically adding in more rounds if possible. Any help is appreciated thank you!

[simple scaffold]

https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata/scripts/xr_effects.script#L5988

you need to find the dialoge files that have the same info portions as checked with has_info in this function.

i think the dialogs spawn the NPCs.

the npc logic files are here: https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/tree/v1.5.2/gamedata/configs/scripts/bar

[naive snow]

Find the in-game ID name of the armor you want to edit via the debug item spawner menu. Then try to find the possible DLTX that might affect the armor ID you're attempting to change values of. Modify in the base LTX if the DLTX don't touch your armor values or even create a new dltx to modify all of the values and make sure it loads last by adding a bunch of zzzzz to the name (and to piss off everyone)

[winged sierra]

Thank you! I’ve only taken a quick glance but I assume i would add onto the script past “bar_arena_fight_8” and create the required logic files in the bar folder for those additional arena fights?

I’m not very experienced with modding something myself outside of config files but I felt like it would be a nice mod I could share. Might encourage someone more experienced to expand on the idea if I released a working concept

[simple scaffold]

And new dialogue. Probably new NPCs. You need to do key word searches for info portions and section names to find all the parts.

But yeah once you find everything a fight needs you just do it again with your logic, NPCs and gear.

[fair canopy]

It's surprising no one has ever done an edit to just loop the fights

[winged sierra]

That’s what I was wondering myself but if I can figure out how to do this once I’m home I will work on it

Is there a way to make a DLTX line ignore a line from the main ltx?

@ more or less replaces

[slow bolt]

what?

if you want to ignore the main ltx - just dont use it

you only put lines you want to change in dltx

[cerulean mantle]

For example I have a GAMMA weapon file with anm_idle in it. I want to make a DLTX from another mod (MRAA in this case) but it crashes because of anm_idle. So I want to keep the DLTX nature of it while also eliminating the anm_idle part.

[fair inlet]

just use ! no?

[cerulean mantle]

It seem if I do @[weapon name] and replace the whole section from the ltx to DLTX without the line I want eliminated, it'd be fiex.

you can't overwrite section completely
just do the same thing as PRP does

[cerulean mantle]

Lemme see if I bypassed it.

Okay I fixed it.

The ltx that was based on Blindside was calling up an animation that MRAA didn't have.

I simply added lines in the DLTX and replaced it with reload animations.

Now, when afk for some time, it's going to do a soundless non-empty reload.

[remote venture]

The process of linking a new stalker animation to an existing one. Such as lighting a match you can see and linking it to the cigarette animation. Is that an animator thing with bone placement and rigs or packaging and coding the mod?

Also, do you set the prices for each item at different rep ranges? Or does an automatic formula go into play to decrease the price by a % based on the factions rep?

[earnest plover]

fixed, made 2 blender instances. one is 3.3.21 and other is 4.2.2

[simple scaffold]

most traders don't have discounts for rep ranges. you can set them up in the trade profiles discounts using a condlist just like how buy_supplies gets setup to change the stock list based on rep.

if you want item by item there is a callback

[remote venture]

Thanks, I just wasn’t sure if I could set the base price and it changes automatically or not.

For example buying from rookie village is almost always more expensive than if I did it from pig farm. I just wasn’t sure if I had to set those prices or they are done automatically.

Any inside to the first part of the question? Thanks again

I was redundant as hell with my speaking, my bad lol

[simple scaffold]

all vendors have assigned discounts in thier trade profile. all of them (i can rember looking at) are static, but like i said could be set up like the stock to change with rep.

I would be surprised if Sid wasn't set up to shaft you compared to other vendors.

most vendors pick from a small list of discounts. but each could have a different one.

also i forgot you can assign item by item price multipliers in the trade profile. that is how butcher is setup to pay more for mutant bits.

[simple scaffold]

the smoking animaiton is played by a script in fdda. that script monitors the animation for being done in order to give you control back. you could change it to play another animaiton instead. IDK how easily, but it is posible.

[remote venture]

Thanks, I’m creating a lighter. And it was basically gonna replace the no animation lighter sound with it before bringing the lighter to the cusp of the hand to play out as normal.

Still working on the models though

[simple scaffold]

making the animation transition nicely might be easier if you simply replace the existing animation. IDK. I script, i don't animate. so i know how the fdda script works, but not the limits on the animaitons themselves.

[remote venture]

Something to keep in mind for sure

Thanks again

[simple scaffold]

NP. there are plenty of actual animators around here to ask about that end of it. or the dedicated mod art channel on the anomaly discord

[remote venture]

Well I have someone currently, just waiting for the models. If linking, rearranging, or redesigning animations is strictly for animation aspects of mod making and not scripting then perhaps I need not tell them about the info you gave me.

But it’s good to know for future aspirations. It will save time explaining

do they? dont remember any

but i also cant imagine anyone in the zone being polite realistically

[slow bolt]

I mean RU VA is pretty PC

[celest forge]

It's not about realism

SOme people just don't feel comfortable with hearing/seeing slurs

[vale canyon]

thanks for sharing ur opinion
📠

but how to solve this problem

[slow bolt]

edit the mod files by removing sound files you dont like

you go one by one

then you edit the script to change the amount of files it looks for

[vale canyon]

i suppose ill have to remove file names from somewhere
or remove some files from somewhere

i suppose i had to repeat my question

or do i have to rephase it i suppose

i suppose i dont know how to get what files a mod does change

[slow bolt]

voiced actor

[vale canyon]

idk how to rephrase it the other way

can u give a lead with what u dont get from me

[slow bolt]

open the mod and you see all the sound files

[slow bolt]

[vale canyon]

open the mod

[slow bolt]

okay, so to very very basic basics

[slow bolt]

!mo2search

[queen pine]

@vale canyon Use the mod name search bar to find mods in MO2, and use the mod files search bar to find which files are from which mods. ||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​|| _ _ _ _ _ _ https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1098945649929617478/1165045267637211156/mo2-search.png

[vale canyon]

i mean
i want to keep changes after the gamma update

i mean if the mod gets updated

[slow bolt]

that is for RU VA

[vale canyon]

i want to edit merc actually

[slow bolt]

That is for english VA

[vale canyon]

what about better merc voicelines

[slow bolt]

then you go to G.A.M.M.A. Voiced Actor\gamedata\scripts\AGDD_voiced_actor.script
and change math.random(number) for the type you edited to reflect the new amount of sounds

That is for your own voice

[vale canyon]

is there a need to change something from GAMMA Radiation Effects Overhaul?

it does also change the AGDD_voiced_actor.script

[slow bolt]

for merc voices that are not your own you go to these and remove the voicelines you dont want. They will revert to original lines that are not eng.

[celest forge]

Easier approach is to find what voicelines you have an issue with and replacing them with another one

lowkey

Like the actual audio files themselves

[slow bolt]

its replaced by other voiced actor mod

[celest forge]

Not the file that determines which lines are said

[vale canyon]

i suppose i would be better going off with this one

but will difference in duration or smt else break something ?

no i suppose
but not sure

[celest forge]

Prolly not

[slow bolt]

no

tbf there is an easier way

instead of deleting just replace by other voiceline

[vale canyon]

i wonder who arr u talking to

[slow bolt]

by copying it and renaming to what you want

[vale canyon]

but u can see that orange guy already presented this replacing solution

and that i answered that im going with it

no offense

[slow bolt]

i am wondering why i am helping this person

[vale canyon]

ure not the hero that world wants
and ure not the hero that world needs

but u arr the hero that the world gets

[slow bolt]

you are making this worse

[vale canyon]

thats quite sad
but i suppose my problem is already solved
so i suppose making end here is better i suppose

[celest forge]

Modder helping more than helpers

more news at 9

[slow bolt]

i am you, but cheese

[lilac idol]

textures might require some more tweaking

[celest forge]

Hard to tell with resolution ngl

[lilac idol]

yeah you're probably right

I'm also gonna get rid of the front mag

oh and I'm aware that the bullets textures are all fucked up btw

[honest root]

i'm trying to find what files for camera anims enhanced recoil uses
it calls level.add_cam_effector and sends file path like shoot\s4_e6_1.anm
and i can't find that files is it in one of the anomaly DBs?

[random fulcrum]

yes it's in the dbs

use unpacker_all

[slow bolt]

yeah its pixelated as fuck

[lilac idol]

I'm not sure why it looks so bad, probably because I uploaded it from mobile

[lilac idol]

where can i find the ltx that defines the parts the glock uses?

nvm i found it

[lilac idol]

does anyone know if there's a guide on how to add guns to the nimble upgrade profile? i can't really find anything about it in the modding book

[surreal gust]

I watched that video when it came out

What they did with the SDK was honestly insane.

[fair inlet]

it's all scripted, you better off just using a kit instead

[lilac idol]

a kit doesn't allow sights to be mounted

although i could make optional

mmmh yeah i think i'll do that

@fair canopy hey sorry to disturb ya but may i ask how you did the SUP stuff for the mdr? or was that done by bert?

is it just like adding a scope to the ltx?

[lilac idol]

@fair inlet what could be causing this? i'm trying to test the roni and it crashes with this dltx error, although the file it's refering to doesn't contain any wpn_glock parent section

[fair inlet]

dltx logs are often not true, I guess you can dm me your mod

[lilac idol]

sure

[fair canopy]

What do you mean by that? Like the animations or setup?

[lilac idol]

the set up

like this is all i got for now, but the kit just won't attach at all (don't mind the weapon below)

[fair canopy]

There's a few different ways but the basis is you have to set the gun as a parent section and then either make the kit a scope or a drag and drop craft

You setup your new weapon as a separate section with whatever modification to the section you need

And then you make that new section it's own parent or not depend on if you want the kit to be detachable or permanent

[lilac idol]

well this is how i got it set up so far

did i mess it up?

[fair canopy]

You have to add parent section to the glock

It looks right

[lilac idol]

soo
![wpn_glock]
scopes = roni_upkit
scope_status = 0
parent_section =wpn_glock
??

[fair canopy]

Looks right

[lilac idol]

it works perfectly fine, thank you!

guys

what im doing wrong

i want to integrate the button from 1.5.3

into 1.5.2 (temporary)

the button appears but it doesnt work

[slow bolt]

All calls outside the game are removed in anomaly

Fairly sure that is the case

[cursive rose]

oh i get it, ty

although I just realized that versions 1.5.1-2 will be removed in two weeks

so ill just skip this and migrate RAMP to 1.5.3😔

[alpine scaffold]

Guys, hello everyone!

Tell me, please.

How can I change the assortment of merchants? I want to completely remove the food, like sausages, stews, etc. Also a question about the food from the corpses, how to remove it?

Which file is responsible for this? As I understand it, there are several of them because of the mods

[alpine scaffold]

Sorry for the incorrect translation into English

[lilac idol]

I guess you could make a dltx file that excludes all the food sections from every single trader one by one and item by item

[alpine scaffold]

And which one exactly, please tell me, please, I want to make an assembly for the video

[lilac idol]

wdym which one?

[alpine scaffold]

Which file is responsible for this, please tell me (sorry for the translation), for the assortment, I understood that DLTX, well, I think there are a lot of them

[lilac idol]

idk which add-ons add food or which one modify the trader profiles

what I'm saying is that you can probably enter all the items id in an ltx file and use DLTX to delete those sections

you don't need to know which files modify any of that at all when making a dltx

specially for this matter

[alpine scaffold]

In the range, which files are responsible for limiting the range of weapons and armor? Maybe they have it? If there's c++, I think I'll figure it out

[lilac idol]

sorry but I don't understand what you mean by "in the range"

[alpine scaffold]

To be honest, I don't really care about modding, that's why I'm trying to find out a specific file

[lilac idol]

there's no specific files that you can delete to make everything disappear magically

[alpine scaffold]

I'm writing through a translator, maybe I meant the wrong thing

[alpine scaffold]

there's no specific files that you can delete to make everything disappear magically

[lilac idol]

you could however delete every trade profile and pray hard enough that it doesn't fuck up your game too badly

[alpine scaffold]

Delete? I don't need it, I just need to edit it so as not to violate it.

[alpine scaffold]

I was told that the Trader destockifier file is responsible for this, maybe I'll find the answer there, but which file is responsible for the loot from the corpses?

[lilac idol]

then make an ltx file for every trader that sells you any of the items you want to remove and include in it all the items id you want removed from that trader

you can just set all the supply = 0 if you want

but again you'd have to do it for every single trader and every item

[lilac idol]

that's probably defined somewhere in the GAMMA economy separator

[alpine scaffold]

but again you'd have to do it for every single trader and every item

[alpine scaffold]

And where?

[lilac idol]

I have no idea, there's no reason I would know that tbh

you could take a deep look at the files until you find something

[alpine scaffold]

Yes, that's the problem, I may understand the code, but GAMMA itself, where it's not very) to be honest, I'm too lazy to look)

[lilac idol]

maybe I'll take a look once I'm home if I feel like it

[alpine scaffold]

Okay, anyway, thank you very much)

[young hemlock]

Hi I need help

[livid knot]

Hello! I have a problem with new scopes. I have found an SKS and in this new version of GAMMA i don't like the look of the scope. How can I change for the prev. version for the scope?

[quiet charm]

Is it the PU on the base sks?

[livid knot]

The PU. One moment and I make a screenshot.

so this is the one i hate. Idk why I have this scope.... Yesterday I have updated my GAMMA. Maybe during the update some files corrupted? Or everybody have the same scope for SKS now?

[quiet charm]

So as far as I remember that's the base anomaly PU texture

[livid knot]

I think yes. Why I have the base texture?

I don't turned off nothing in the mod organiser.

[quiet charm]

Gamma probably doesnt add a new one, and won't be adding one because 3DSS will replace flat textures in the next update

If you want to add a new one, it gonna be:

[livid knot]

ohh so this is normal now? So this isn't a bug?

[quiet charm]

gamedata->textures->wpn_crosshair_pu.dds

[livid knot]

If this isn't a bug it's no problem for me...

[quiet charm]

Yeah its not a bug

here's a garbage pu scope texture I made like a year ago

[livid knot]

Then it's okay for me. I just thought my version of the game was buggy. But if the creators updated it like this in its current state, then this is how I play it. Thank you very much for your help so far. Ohh and one more question... Are the other scopes also reset to default in this update?

[livid knot]

How can I add this to my game?

[quiet charm]

uh try adding this to mo2 like you would any other mod, no idea if it works its ancient

otherwise check out https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1219433143069708299 which will be in gamma after its tested and finished

[livid knot]

Thank You!!!! 😛

Have a nice day my friend! 🙂

It worked!!! Thankssss

sadly it didnt, looks like the shader radius is too high 😅 def look into 3DSS lmao

Hey guys!

In the ZCP mod, there’s a function to make the PDA broken.

As I understand it, one of the codes in the picture is responsible for this.
I want to make it so that with the broken PDA function enabled, the task selection works with or without the map.
But I can't figure out how to do this, changing the check from == to ~= didn't work.

Парни привет!

В моде ZCP есть функция; Сделать КПК сломаным

За это как я понял отвечает какой-то из кодов на картинке.
Хочу сделать так чтобы при включенной функции сломанный КПК, работал выбор заданий с картой или без.
Но не могу понять как это сделать, меня проверку с == на ~=, не сработало.

[alpine scaffold]

чуть выше есть проверка, если включена функция сломанный кпк, то возвращает на экран сообщение о сломанном КПК
За это ответственный файл глитчед.
Но в нем я не нашел чтобы при выборе определённого меню, он возвращал ошибку. Он возвращает ко всем сразу. Возможно я ошибаюсь

Just above, there's a check: if the broken PDA function is enabled, it returns a message about the broken PDA on the screen.
The file responsible for this is 'glitched'.
But I couldn't find anything in it that would return an error when selecting a specific menu. It returns the error to all menus at once. Maybe I'm mistaken.

[normal nova]

I was modding some trader inventories and doing some in-game testing. In debug mode I can "refresh trader inventory" on every trader so far, except for Sidorovich. He seems to be unique?

[alpine scaffold]

no

[normal nova]

You misunderstand--I can modify his inventory just fine, but I cannot use the in-game debug menu to refresh it.

It seems to be trying to execute the command on the wrong target in this case, or Sidorovich is unique in some way.

Regardless, I can use the button to refresh the inventories of the other merchants in the game just fine.

Is there a manual command I can enter to refresh his?

Here is what's supposed to happen; this is me refreshing Spore's inventory in the Clear Sky base. The console seems to target Spore properly (mar_base_owl_stalker_trader_19543), while for Sidorovich it's just trying to run on esc_m_trader, which seems incorrect.

[hybrid snow]

Hey All
I'm new to lua, so I need an advice on monkey patching
I want to monkey patch Grok's ballistics script (grok_bo.script) in the following way:
if weapon is any of SKS present in vanilla GAMMA (wpn_sks_b, wpn_sks_molot, wpn_sks_tac) and it has caliber conversion upgrade installed (up_firstf_sks ==true) then I want to forcefully change wpn_hit_power value to 1.1
Its pretty easy to do inside the script, like this:

    wpn_hit_power = 1.1
end```

But I don't get how to monkey patch it. I came up with a following solution:
```local original_npc_on_before_hit = grok_bo.npc_on_before_hit
function grok_bo.npc_on_before_hit(npc, shit, bone_id, flags)
    original_npc_on_before_hit(npc, shit, bone_id, flags)
    
    local wpn = level.object_by_id(shit.weapon_id)
    if wpn and wpn:section() then
        local sec = wpn:section()

        if string.find(sec, "wpn_sks.*") and utils_item.has_this_upgrade(wpn, sec, "up_firstf_sks") then
            local wpn_hit_power = ui_wpn_params.read_float(sec, "", "hit_power")
            wpn_hit_power = 1.1
            printf('SKS upgrade detected: Hit power set to %s', wpn_hit_power)
        end
    end
end```
But in my in-game testing it doesnt work (I mean, wpn_hit_power for an upgraded SKS doesnt change). What am I doing wrong?

[misty mulch]

bad configuration to the tacticool scopes installation instructions

my point being, it's not you, it's everyone

passed the fix to grok already

[soft burrow]

zcp squad size variance in default gamma looks neutered

anyone know why?

it's missing local varf = math.random(-variance, variance) which actually would make squad sizes variate

[regal bolt]

woah i have to pay so i get a mod?

[lilac idol]

you have to pay so someone makes a mod for you

most people ain't gonna waste their time for free

[regal bolt]

thats fair but i didnt expect it

just take a normal ak and configure it

[lilac idol]

obviously all the mods out there are free to download

[regal bolt]

the ak and the m70 have very little diferenxe

[lilac idol]

but they require time, which usually costs money

[regal bolt]

can i make my own mod?

[lilac idol]

for sure, it's easy

https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/ here are the basics

[grizzled light]

Can you re-route the 100 euros to my bank account?

[lilac idol]

sure but you'll have to give 100€ first so I know you aren't lying

[grizzled light]

I'll do it in ummmm, 1 week maybe

[regal bolt]

100 euros for this thing is crazy man

is just an ak but a lil diferent

[grizzled light]

It pretty much is

[regal bolt]

it only has a diff handguard

3 vents

[grizzled light]

Usually it'd cost like 10-20 eur on average

[regal bolt]

better get a happy ending with the 100

[grizzled light]

100 EUR range is usually for the animations, but it could go down to 80 EUR
This mostly applies to medium skill animators (Me, SeDziMol, Nikolas [But his M60 anim is so damn good])

[regal bolt]

u dont get animations for 20?

only model?

[grizzled light]

Animation sets for 20 EUR is too low, 35-40 EUR for an entry-level animator should be the lowest pay

For 20 EUR, the most you'd possibly get out of it are retargets

[regal bolt]

do u know if there is already a mod like this??

on moddb i didnt find

[grizzled light]

Sadly, nah

I don't think so

You either have to pay someone to port the model or do it yourself

[regal bolt]

is it hard to do jt ur self

[grizzled light]

Setting up bump maps for STALKER are different than other games, I think

It's the hardest part out of porting

I remember a guide for doing that, but it's probably hard to find
(You can search up Lunatic's tutorial, or the .pdf I sent you)

[lilac idol]

nah 100€ would be if it included new animations, but usually it ain't that high

but you can port it yourself pretty easily

check the pins if you want to learn how to do it

[lethal dirge]

Prechiate you

Time to get a headache trying to understand shit from people that actually know how to code

[quiet charm]

(my advice, start modding simple 😅 but do what pleases)

[lethal dirge]

Yeah I'll likely see what kinda "simple" shit I can do (bah, xray and simple)

But this was one of the first ideas I had and I figured hell, won't be that hard, well, there goes that

[quiet charm]

most frameworks are already in place to make simple edits easy (e.g., dltx) because the heavy lifting was already done by great people

[lethal dirge]

Literally my extent of doing anything to gamma so far has been changing trader tables

So, is xray as an engine just there to run the game and the frameworks are all custom made by people, or does the engine itself already come included with things?

Like unity for example has fuckin thousands of frameworks that come with it for collission, bouding boxes, physics, sound, all that, im guessing xray is all DIY?

[quiet charm]

as an introductory experience your likelihood of interacting with engine level stuff is close to zero

[lethal dirge]

Gotcha

[quiet charm]

just look at mods, and if something interests you look at what the author did and see if you can reverse engineer it

[lethal dirge]

Sounds good

Gonna take a look at it once I get home today

Got some scrambled eggs to make first and an hour's drive though

Prechiate all the help

Lets see if Im even literate enough to figure any of this out, I'll report in if I have any non google-able questions

[empty wyvern]

man i wish nextTick had been documented somewhere better its such a nice little guy

[floral sparrow]

hey

anyone use ATO3 mod

like anyone

[random fulcrum]

REAL

[cerulean mantle]

There is a Zastava M70 in Miscellanious Weapons Pack from TAZ/MISERY.

Misc Weapons Pack.

Brain's not braining atm

[regal bolt]

[lilac idol]

ah yes, TAZ, the best weapon pack known to mankind

[cerulean mantle]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/dltx-simple-weapons-pack

It's actually Zestava M92

[celest forge]

If only someone made a mod that adds an M92 and M70

[regal bolt]

Парни есть ссылка на мод автокоплитера и кейсы?

[sturdy pebble]

does anyone know where i can find the color of in game text?

like the color of text in the descriptions of stuff and in the menus

[celest forge]

I could be wrong but I think that's a per line basis inside all XML files for all lines

[cursive rose]

is there a way to give my mod_system file a high priority in the load?

[celest forge]

Putting a metric shit ton of Zs after the system

so like mod_system_zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzchanges

[cursive rose]

fr? but what z do

and why a lot of them

[celest forge]

DLTX loads files in reverse alphabetical order

[sturdy pebble]

i was trying to modify the color of the modern ui font bc its black for some reason so its illegible but i found it and was able to open it with a dds plugin in photoshop

gonna be my first personal modification for a game

[celest forge]

so if you want to override something in mod_system_mchanges you chould do it by adding mod_system_tchanges

Oh the fonts for the layer stuff, yeah that should be a dds file lol

[cursive rose]

what a chad, today I learned something new, thanks (im learning to modding anomaly)

[sturdy pebble]

can someone help me add properties to an item? for example (this isnt what im planning) adding psi resistance to bread?

[simple scaffold]

bread bread or anomaolus bread?

[sturdy pebble]

bread bread

like adding psi resistance to an item when it is used

[simple scaffold]

see this line: https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata/configs/items/items/items_drugs.ltx#L61

and the one above it?

add them here https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata/configs/items/items/items_food.ltx#L26

obvs you can change the magnitude and experimanet with values. look at other drugs like https://github.com/Tosox/STALKER-Anomaly-gamedata/blob/v1.5.2/gamedata/configs/items/items/items_drugs.ltx#L159

to get a feel for ranges.

i am not going to do the whole dltx totorial thing at 330am. i think there is one earlier today in this channel anyway.

[sturdy pebble]

thanks man

im trying to add psy protection to the photo of a loved one mod bc i like the idea and i changed the photo to a picture of my girlfriend

[sturdy pebble]

where are the item ltx files kept i dont see them in the anomaly directory

nvm i got it working thanks for helping dude!

[surreal gust]

You're testing linked guard waypoints?

[glad topaz]

yes

[surreal gust]

Ok

[glad topaz]

guard and look

[simple scaffold]

For that you need to make the photo a booster like the bread is. There is a flag to stop it from being consumed on use, I forget what it is tho

[surreal gust]

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that linked waypoints in anomaly don't work properly, refer to this bug report in anomaly discord: #490609782881779732 message

[glad topaz]

im baned oficial anomaly discord

[surreal gust]

what did you do?

I'll send the messages and the images here

actually, nvm, I posted that bug in this channel, too, lemme find the message links

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

let me upload the video here

i was using vanilla 1.5.3, no addons

[slow bolt]

1984d for politics

[surreal gust]

bruh

[lethal dirge]

Man every time I have an idea for what I'd like to make I look at something, try to see if I can wrap my head around it, read that anomaly modding guide for 2 hours trying to figure it out and then just devolve back to looking for something easier

I'm now at a point where the most I think I'd actually be able to do is maybe change the image of an item

[honest root]

icons actually easy

only 1 addon for Photoshop and other program to set icons in texture file

[lethal dirge]

Yeah, that's the joke

[swift gull]

I'm too dumb to make a script or single line of code more a less an entire addon, but it would be really cool to have an expanded drug and addiction system. The cannabis and cocaine are cool, but it would be awesome to add amphetamines and other medical grade stimulants that work like caffeine pills except obviously better but with more debuffs. Maybe add acid tabs and magic mushrooms too, and they could offer moderate to heavy psy protection but distort your vision and hearing in some cool way. And the addiction system would be cool just to further discourage players from simply spamming the drugs.

[cerulean mantle]

Yup "D

[prime pecan]

From poop to Magpul MBUS (textures)

[lilac idol]

can someone help me create a fomod? i genuinely don't understand why the one i did won't work

what does this even mean

[random fulcrum]

see console for details!!!

[lilac idol]

nah my dumbass wrote an underscore in one of the most random ass places i could think of

[stiff forge]

Is there any way to make it so reparing things does not require toolkits, but upgrading does?

Preferably without using the script system. It should be possible with DLTX, no?

[wheat sable]

Is there a way to add weapons to those that can be put in the knife/vision slot?

Can I just go in and edit the text files?

If so, what line do I need to edit?

[lethal garden]

Which reposition do y'all like better? The one that came originally with the EFT pack (1st Photo) or the one that I positioned to my liking (2nd Photo)?

[untold grail]

Yo can anyone help me rq? I'm trying to make any item repairable at any % in the game. ( so like weapon parts, weapon barrels, cloth etc etc ) But I found a mod to do it but unfortunately it doesn't seem like it's up to date with the game, is there anyway that someone could configure the mod to be better? Or do I need to go through the game code and fix it myself.,

[untold grail]

I really need someone to help me so I can get back to what I was doing.

Am I able to edit the file for the item repairable?

[random fulcrum]

dltx

read the modding book in the pins on the subject

i think we told you this already when you asked in general chat

[untold grail]

Yeah you guys did, but how the hell do you get there?

[random fulcrum]

reread my second message

[untold grail]

Okay, what modding book am I looking for?

oh.

Im retarded

@random fulcrum Do I need to follow these two at all? Or no. I'm just trying to edit one to two files.

[random fulcrum]

i shouldn't have spoken

[fair pollen]

[untold grail]

I need my hand held through this, this is the first time i'm even editting a file.

[fathom wagon]

Just trial and error. That's how we all started really.

Or look for other mods that do something similar.
