Where in that message am I defending GAMMA

inland dock
#

I see you crying at your helplessness. KekSkew

celest forge
#

Like your "helplessness" at writting in english

#

I think the Redux thing is cool and all, just that people are getting their hopes up immensely like it's a "drag and drop on mo2" type mod for anomaly, and afaik it's not

#

And you're way off if you think me of all people is "defending" GAMMA

inland dock
celest forge
#

Yeah people in this server particularly tend to be pretty ignorant about STALKER modding as a whole

#

Thinking everything from SoC mods to total conversions of Anomaly should be compatible with GAMMA

#

Or that remaking the attachment system to be modular is a one week affair, instead of the titanic task it is, as i'm sure the Redux devs probably know

autumn python
#

It's time to realize that all stalker modding doesn't lie on Gamma

#

#

Find me a single message of me "defending" GAMMA

yes

#

So you're just dumb then or

autumn python
#

#

BOTH vanilla and GAMMA

#

So i'd be "defending" vanilla too, right?

#

I still don't get how you make the connection of me pointing out the fact that the video is neither vanilla nor GAMMA

#

To me "defending" GAMMA

#

And conveniently forget the vanilla part

#

This might just be a language barrier

Chad developers of Stalker Anomaly Redux:

Create balance and mechanics, enhancing the player experience

Optimize code, reduce crashes and lags

Are calm about others using their work

Open to criticism and communication with the community

Virgin Juan from Stalker GAMMA:

Didn't even create GAMMA but acts like its owner

Plays a mod for a Soviet-era game but hates the Russian-speaking community

Posts mods publicly but whines when someone uses them

Can't balance but is convinced his ideas are the only correct ones

celest forge
#

I dont even fucking like GAMMA dude

#

What are you on about

#

Im like 99% sure i didnt even clock 20 hours

#

STALKER is not soviet era game as it is a Ukranian game that takes place in the 2010s

#

Decades the after USSR fell and Ukraine was a sovereign nation

#

I dont like the russian part of the community because i havent had a single good interaction with any of them

autumn python
celest forge
#

I dont defend GAMMA because I dont like it, you either cant read, can't comprehend or your google translate is messing your shit up dude

#

I quite literally simply said Redux is not vanilla anomaly or GAMMA

Damn that's sick. Even if it would be compatible with anomaly/gamma implementing it in the "balance system" of gamma would be a beast of a task

I would assume if it is that simple someone must have done it before. I've searched and found nothing, so here it goes: is it possible to repopulate Jupiter Underground by editing smart terrain info or that stuff is inside all.spawn?
I think I've found where territories, resources, lairs and bases are configured, but although I'm fairly comfortable with stalker mods and editing stuff I'm no expert in the population system

half lance
#

I wonder if it's working the same way as it was in SOC

#

I vaguely remember Stalkersoup where you had to re-start the game once to generate an all.save and maybe my memory is mixing things up but I think it was a little bit related to spawns.

I know it's for mutant/surface spawns but we never know. There might be a way to script underground spawns no?

Hi guys. I have a nearly finished mod for Hideout Furniture + developer tools for quickly adding new posters. With poster searching and collecting, similar to "Pinup Collector", only now posters can be hung on the wall.
Anyone know LUA scripts?
I want to implement viewing of the found image as it is done with "anomaly maps", but I can't figure out what code exactly does this.

  • I want to understand how to safely remove an item from the game if the mod is removed.

#

The only scenario where this is still an issue is if you remove an NPC section

#

In this case, the game will crash when trying to spawn the items that were in the NPC's inventory, because the parent (the npc) doesn't exist

It's not perfect, but someone has managed to use it to create new readable items before, so you should manage I think

Hello guys, IDK if this is the correct channel to ask / suggest(?)

I've tried looking for it but with no clear result, would there be a way to make a mod to change your portrait in-game from MCM or something? Because doesn't matter the portrait mod I use, it's never 100% accurate to the suit I wear.

Is there a mod already that let you choose / change your character portrait in-game or there is no way? Thank you!

i was wandering if changing hit_impulse of w_vssk.ltx was enough to increase it's damage or if that's just the description or something

random fulcrum
#

impulse is the force applied to physics objects

#

such as ragdolls or breakable boxes

#

it has nothing to do with damage

bronze apex
#

can i increase its dmg by looking further in this file or is it more complicated?

random fulcrum
#

yeah just increase the hit_power number

#

each one is for each one of the player protection settings

just set all of them to the same value if unsure

which one is for the head? kek1

#

hi. is there a way to use debug mode to find item stats (item "kind" and "class") or would i do that out of game somehow?

#

better, how do you get a list of all items, i see how to spawn items in debug mode, but no clue how to create or find a spreadsheet with the info prepared necessary to change how to use the items

#

maybe this extractor will help? 🙂

#

sadly not enough time to learn this. no help found via searching the anomaly or stalker modding guides. the unpacker included in the tools directory doesn't function to extract the .db0 files and in the debugger it states the files can be unpacked. i don't see how the guides can be useful other than a reference. so i'd be interested in tutorials targeting those with limited time on how to mod the game. that'd be awesome.

random fulcrum
#

what are you talking about

#

just use the unpacker

#

not the unpacker_all as that one unpacks all (shocker)

i wanted to up the dmg for vssk but it's actually really good so i should learn how to aim, but i tried changing rpm and it did nothing:(

is it because of the animation? or because it's a bolt action?

Because of animation.

Changing rpm is only one step. Next would be animation speed and the audio file for bolt action.

celest forge

Because its a bolt action

If you just make a bolt action's RPM really high it will just interrupt the animation

But it wont make the shooting animation faster

just speed it up

bronze apex
summer stream
#

yes

#

fix audio too

bronze apex
#

thanks, I'll start looking at it

#

this gun deserves better lol

celest forge
#

To fix the audio you'd need to remake the sounds basically

#

Since the shoot, bolt back and bolt forward are just baked into a single file

bronze apex
#

i looked into the .anm files and it looks like it's hex code, i thought it would be easier Wahh
but I'm not giving up

celest forge
#

.anm is just camera anims

bronze apex
#

I'm going to try and look if there's a tutorial somewhere

#

i was going to basically look at the files and try to copy paste around or something to figure it out

#

but it seems a bit more complicated

celest forge
#

It's not something you can do with editing a config file

bronze apex
#

I'm looking at a video for anomaly 151 i assume it's valid for 153 as well

fair canopy
bronze apex
#

can i speed up the anim with a config file?

celest forge
#

oh the anim yeah

#

The sound, no

#

If you're ok with a completely off sync sound then yeah you can

fathom wagon
#

You technically can, but you'd have to find out the sound path for the sound played and change the frequency. And I don't know of a good way to find the sound of an animation just through script.

bronze apex
#

one by one, i need to speed up the anim to get the rpm higher i might not increase it enough to be out of sync

#

(or slightly out of sync)

#

is the number behind the anim the speed? like i can see some of the animations have
, 0.0001
or
,0.7
at the end

summer stream
#

like you go into ltx file
you look into sounds
see the bolt cocking sound
go into audacity and speed it up

fathom wagon
#

I am mainly talking about a more "code-based" approach. Only reason is because I have "Reload Speed" perks in my RPG Perks mod, but it obv has sound desync. You could look into the LTX, but you'd have to ensure you get the right sound from the right animaion, it goes to the correct path (in case someone DLTX'd it), and you have to find a way to stop the sound then play the "sped-up" version. Probably do-able, but seems too much of a pain to try all that.

#

Mostly when it comes to scripted animations. They handle their sounds differently.

summer stream
#

sped up could be just another file written down in ltx file

#

just a question, when you sped up the file and u use the reload speed perk
could you possibly force it to use sped up version while in game? or you need to manually do it?

Is it possible to export multiple motions for an omf from an animation rig in blender? I'm noticing that when i export the omf for the hand armature, the only motion that gets exported and shows up in-game is whatever was last selected, and nothing else even though all motions show up in omf editor.

undone spruce
#

for exporting as omf you first have to export the separate animations as a skl, then import the skls files to a suitable armature, is possibly on a new blender file, and from there, export as a omf

Hello! Do i understand right, that there is no way to update only selected parts of file using MO2? like applying diff/patch? To avoid updating mod each time when file changes in other mods?

Hello. Is it possible for me to edit an armor / weapons condition ? Like I have it in my inventory or equipped and I need to change it from 100% to something lower. Preferably edit the parts themselves. Is it possible or am I asking for too much ?

drifting moat

If it doesn't matter which weapon or armor just spawn in a stalker and kill it.

drifting moat
fiery dragon
#

I'm "recreating" one of my save files. So I ported a lot of things over. The small number of armors I have, I can live with them being 100%. All my repair parts being 100% is also fine to me. But when I ported all the weapons, they are all 100% which I find overkill. I'm trying to get it down. I don't want to have a VSSK and other really good finds in my stash 100% nor I want to sell them or just throw them away. That's what I'm trying to achieve.

#

But the "shooting it" sounds like the best way to do it so far. Thanks for that.

random fulcrum
misty mulch
#

although dbg_dev is probably the more sensible way

fiery dragon
#

I really just need the weapon's condition to lower. + I just realised I also need to edit the skills values (endurace,scavengning,strength and survival)

#

Biggest lead I have right now is apparently I can edit what I need in the savefile.SCOP but it's in binary form and I can't open it normally in any program. Apparently you can convert it into a LUA code, but I don't know how yet. :/

#

I was also messing around with cheat engine to see if values change when weapon parts degrade, but it doesn't work stalkersad

Top 3 hardest things to mod for anomaly

No

#

It's that hard

#

There's only like 4 people in the entire modding scene that know how to make quests for anomaly to begin with

somber ember
#

What's the problem?

celest forge
#

There's no framework for it

#

If you don't know LUA and I assume C++ you can't do it

quasi narwhal
#

not rocket science really, just requires some good amount of Lua scripting I guess

somber ember
#

I see, thanks for the help

quasi narwhal
#

I highly recommend WTF cause it's well documented and will reduce a lot of the scripting logic you'll need to write by hand

somber ember
#

So in other words anomaly isn't really a good base to create a new storyline 🤔

quasi narwhal
#

like, if you try to create a task purely with vanilla shit it's one hell of a job

somber ember
#

I honestly thought it would be easier since so much people added so much add-ons for anomaly but I guess nobody really got a new story line (I am a absolute newbie and just thought if it was possible)

random fulcrum
#

it's much more of a lack of documentation situation

#

which leads into it being treated as arcane knowledge

#

and the only guy that put serious time into tasking also quit the scene a long time ago and disowned the tasks framework he was working on

#

oh no wait he came back

#

you have igigog (the guy i'm talking about here), itheon, and xcvb

#

as "easily reachable" task creation dudes

iirc itheon made his task pack with vanilla resources

Don't know what I'd look for in the cfgs 😅

hello. i am looking for gun mods. generally any that adds more gear into gamma is fine, but ive heard of the halow eapons pack. is there more futuristic weapons mod, per chance?

celest forge
#

There's no halo weapons pack afaik

tidal wing
#

i saw a video about project inverno and they had a halo sniper rifle

#

That's not part of a weapons pack

How can I look into loot tables and/or trace back what makes every weapon have a silencer and every body drop a m203, vog-25 and pg-7v with 2 grenades?

This is oddly specific and applies to all stalkers that spawn. That's with "god of the zone" spawner mod on CoP, and I get that "god of the zone" is the problem, but I can't really understand what exactly causes this

Guys does anyone knows how to install this? I hope this is the correct channel?

I can't find any file replacemenet in HIDEOUT FURNITURE, and if I install it normally on MO2, in-game, I still get nothing.

Is this mod to be seen on the big white CRT PC screen or for other PC scattered around the zone?

What it should do is that it should add a GIF style screen, I remember I've seen the original blue flickering screen, but I can't remember where... Thank you!

ModDB
Macrasoft Widows - new computer screens for a computer addon - S.T....

If you are tired of looking at the monitor and seeing only a flickering blue console screen, then this addon is for you. It provides more than 100 new screens for the computer.

#

I mean, I found where the texture is, but... what do I replace? It doesn't work 😦

EDIT: I see, Sidorovich PC shows this mod when activated, however, it's the same PC CRT screen from HIDEOUT FURNITURE, but I think of course it uses a different asset, I wish there was a way to connect the same assets together so it shows the animated screen

I've edited some weapon textures and replaced them by saving the edited diffuse and bump as DXT5 in my own folder in MO2. However when I'm loading the game the game crashes or is playing as 15fps. I used NVIDIA texture tools for PS in order to save the textures. Could it be causing this problem? Should I use the SDK? Which tools can I use to save those textures in Anomaly format

Ok, thanks for the tip peepoLove

and short of editing the engine the only way to control when an NPC throws a grenade is by giving them one when you want them to be able to and taking them all away when you want them to not.

Oh I see. That's a good idea I guess. I saw in the lua_helper that there were functions related to "can_throw_grenades"

Is there a dedicated thread for the 'Modular Attachment System' mod ? Over at modDB page theere's comments talkin bout it, but i'm unsure whether it's in this discord server or somewhere else. Anyone know anything ?

so my problem is,

i have a mod for different type of bullets, its written down into the gun
yet idk why, but it can't be put into gun?
like it shows blue like "yeah you can put it in"
yet there is no signs of it on the ammo (it says only fmj)
and its not visible in Y

different position = different type of ammo used

WTF is nice, but it helps after you know what to do. I tried to make quest-making accessible (that was the whole idea of WTF), but ultimately came to conclusion, that it's impossible by its nature. Big sad, but also that's how it is

drifting moat

This the one I want to DLTX

slow bolt
# drifting moat

huh.
then the name would be mod_tm_new_tasks_addon_nostepback.ltx

Since it looks like its a standalone file

drifting moat

#

If that wont work just ask itheon ngl

drifting moat
#

That's the part that confused me about DLTX

noble lark
#

It isn't standalone

tm_* is wildcard-included into task manager ltx

drifting moat

But he just followed that naming convention I think

noble lark
#

I'm not sure if task manager ltx is standalone

drifting moat
drifting moat

Does this mean it's standalone?

verbal siren
drifting moat

It's a console app

yeah but if it's closing immediately then you're most likely double clicking it or something no?
also, not all LTX files are DLTXable

#

weather LTX being an example

drifting moat
quasi narwhal
#

if the file is read by a script for example, you can't DLTX it (unless it's a root one already)

drifting moat
#

So maybe there's no way to DLTX this iTheon file?

How would I know if it's read by script?

There should be a filename in the script code, right?

you need to name the file after the root file. (ppl shouldn't say standalone when the mean the file is a root file)
the file must also be in the same folder as the root file.
all tm_ files are imported into task_manager.ltx so that is the root.

99% of the time ppl want to make a dltx they are targeting a file that is imported into system.ltx so ppl think that everything is in system.

# drifting moat

this would not help you, since as mentioned, all tm_whatever.ltx files are read by wildcard, the script file just reads from task_manager.ltx which itself includes every tm_*.ltx file

#

lmao in fact at the very top of task_manager.ltx

;; NOTICE FOR MODDERS ;;
; unless you need to edit already existing tasks, do NOT edit the "tm_*" files but make a new one that defines your new tasks
; eg. "tm_mymod.ltx"
; it will be automatically included and won't cause conflict with other mods that add/edit tasks
slow bolt

and. yes. you absolutely 100% can use DLTX to modify tm_*.ltx files. I did it to remove debug-only guns from the rewards in Mortal Sin, mod_task_manager_ms_no_debug_guns.ltx

#

short version: the root file for EVERY tm_whatever.ltx file is always task_manager.ltx

#

you can check this by looking at the DLTX files that modify other tm_whatever.ltx files

#

ltxdiff does not work well if you are trying to get the root of a mod-added LTX file

drifting moat
misty mulch
#

yup

drifting moat
#

So better version for me would be "mod_task_manager_serious.ltx"

misty mulch
#

yup

#

inside of gamedata/configs/misc/task

simple scaffold
# misty mulch yup

an interesting thing i learned is that dlxt commands work in any ltx file. so wild card imports you could put the dltx commands in a tm_something.ltx just need to make sure it loads after the file with the sections you are targeting. tm_z_something.ltx

there is no good reason to in this case. it can make it easier to use dltx with mags redux where someone thought it would be a good idea to have multiple roots loading some of the branch files. (It was a good way to solve a problem i had and DLTX didn't exist yet so i didn't know it would make another problem)

Anyone knows how could I export a print screen I took with GIMP in the correct format so GAMMA will recognize it?
I tried with both .dds (for some reason gimp has 2 with seemingly no difference).

I created the .xml that adds it like this:

<w>
    <file name="ui\modname\some_image_name">
        <texture id="unique_identifier" x="0" y="0" width="606" height="539"/>
    </file>
</w>

In the UI code I use the texture's id, but I get "Can't find texture 'unique_identifier'" not found.
I already managed to do it for another mod of mine and I don't remember any problems occuring there, but now I just can't manage to do it.

what settings are you exporting with?

#

the xml code seems correct

drifting moat
slow bolt
#

What gimp version?

drifting moat

2.10.36.0
I used this same GIMP version for my other mod where it worked.

Also if I just steal a .dds image from another mod it's loaded in no problem

it should work

Since then format choice is locked off

No luck. Something stupid is going on for sure

@slow bolt You're gonna love this. I was so damn stupid....
There was a fucking typo in my folder name texture_descr instead of textures_descr

Okay!

You know how the mod Body Health System does this every time you press the INVENTORY key and you are in the INVENTORY? (showing the body health system interface like that) I know it's not enabled in GAMMA, at least for me, but:

what if there is a way, there surely is with modding, don't know how difficult, to insert / completely scratch that idea of showing the body health system stats, and re-work from zero, a square showing an image of our character "DAYZ Style", of what it's wearing, could also be a generic NPC model, not necessarily the 3d rendered one we are using in the game, such as the "visibile body" mod does, like the first entry of the trilogy did, Shadow of Chernobyl, in the inventory itself.

(I know the game already shows us in the middle of the inventory what we are wearing and equip, this is why I said it may be useless and just visual and for nostalgia)

I'm sending a screenshot of what I'm talking about + how it would look like practically.

But I think so far away, you got the idea right? (sorry for my english)

@simple scaffold while I have you here .. I've got a really weird 'ANOMALY' that is currently happening.

I entered truck cemeteray with my squad, and after about a minute, I look at them, and they're RED. They are freedomers, so I checked my reputation with freeedom, and it had gone from 1000+ to 1,

Any ideas on where do I start looking in order to fix this ?

# simple scaffold dynamic faction relations? when rep between two factions gets too high it resets...

I was just reading the console log, and they appear to get aggressive whenever I take out my weapon. DFRC.TGR keeps doing it.

I was able to find this out because luckily I unholstered my weapon, and the log message said 'Aggrevation has been reset to 0' or something like that.

I am fairly certain it's the mod 'NPC Friendly Fire Response And Actor Surrender - v0.3.1' cuz it has this feature of aggrevating teammates.

Didn't want to make loadout files for re-adding the G3, so I re-factored the "remove_weapon_from_loadouts" script to do essentially the opposite KekSkew

Gonna test it after I wake up in debug, but so far the script fires and does add entries. This is more made for my edits to the loadout script, but should be useful for others to take a crack at kek1

I can help you set up VSCode if you would like. Syntax highlight, error highlight, highlighting of unused stuff, warnings, color coded stuff. Also code suggestions which sometimes don't really help that much, but it's useful from time to time. It would save you from a lot of headaches. Especially when developing something complex.

Yesterday I had a weird experience. I was looking for the .dds file that stores the images used in PDA->Guides->Notes entries and I couldn't find them.

I have no idea how the hell it could be missing from my gamma anomaly folder

quasi narwhal
# drifting moat Yeah. Especially if you don't know how to find stuff

I'm really used to coding in TypeScript which is quite similar in that sense, I'd say that like
If you're using VSCode:

  1. Download this https://github.com/Aoldri/anomaly-definitions/
  2. Install https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua and https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=JohnnyMorganz.stylua
  3. Set these in your settings.json:
"files.associations": {
  "*.script": "lua",
},
// Since usually people do a `function actor_on_update`
"Lua.diagnostics.disable": ["lowercase-global"],
"Lua.hint.enable": true,
"Lua.hover.enable": true,
"Lua.runtime.plugin": "C:/Path/to/anomalydefs/plugin.lua",
// Can set to whatever low ahh Lua version you can, so you don't get autocompleted with
// shit that's not included in Anomaly
"Lua.runtime.version": "Lua 5.1",
"Lua.workspace.ignoreSubmodules": false,
"Lua.workspace.library": [
  "C:/Path/to/anomalydefs/library",
  "C:/Path/to/tools/_unpacked/scripts"
],
"[lua]": {
  "editor.defaultFormatter": "JohnnyMorganz.stylua",
  "editor.formatOnSave": true,
  "editor.tabSize": 2
},
  1. Open whatever .script file and have fun
#

unfortunately I don't think I have any .luarc.json file as an example here, but it acts like the config. for the LuaLS in which you can force extra type checkings

#

you can honestly use whatever you feel like checking (some things might not be 100% type-safe since the annotations won't include everything)

drifting moat
#

I actually have the language server installed

drifting moat
quasi narwhal
#

yea, stylua is optional but always good to autoformat your code on saving I guess

drifting moat
#

Would save me time

quasi narwhal
#

ye the config I sent above already does that
you can install that one, and since you already have the LuaLS one, just add the rest of the stuff to your settings.json
should be enough already to at least autocomplete your shit and autoformat when you save the file and what not

fathom wagon
lilac idol
#

that's some cool shit

#

is it any better than just doing loadouts via dltx tho

fathom wagon
#

I only did it because I didn't want to make a DLTX and cross-reference all loadouts for where I should put it. But, since I knew which weapon(s) I was cross-referencing in terms of where to put them, I did that instead.

Doesn't bog the game down during actual play since loadouts are made before the player can actually play.

#

Really is only a niche thing if (1) you know which weapon you want to cross-reference and (2) know that said cross-reference in indeed in the loadouts.

Just a thing I made on a whim cuz I was too lazy to do DLTX KekSkew

#

For instance, was thinking of doing the same with LEWD's STG. Have it appear in loadouts where a PPSh is present.

#

But that one would also have to cross-reference all PPSh sections (or do a string.find).

summer stream
lilac idol
#

so can it be used to replace a weapon in the loadouts with another one without modifying the loadouts ltx?

#

for example having a Glock spawn where an M4 does originally

fathom wagon
#

Not replace - this merely inserts an identical entry into the loadout lists based on the weapon being cross-referenced. If you wanted to replace the weapon, you would simply change the section name in the loadout list entry.

if d.sec == "wpn_m4" then d.sec = "wpn_glock" end

#

That would replace it

#

But, if you wanted a Glock to be in the Primary slot loadouts option like an M4 (since it is a Primary weapon only) BUT NOT REPLACE IT, it would be this:

init_settings = xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.init_settings
xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.init_settings = function ()
    init_settings()
    for k,v in pairs(xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts) do
        local original_size = #xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k]
        for i = original_size, 1, -1 do
            local d = xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k][i]
            if d.sec == "wpn_m4" then
                printf("[Return G3] Found M4 -> adding Glock entry")
                local base_entry = {
                    sec = "wpn_glock",
                    attachment = d.attachment or "0",
                    ammo_type = d.ammo_type or "0",
                    wpn_chance = d.wpn_chance or 20,
                    scope_chance = tonumber(d.scope_chance) or "d",
                    gl_chance = tonumber(d.gl_chance) or "d",
                    sil_chance = tonumber(d.sil_chance) or "d",
                }
                table.insert(xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k], base_entry)
            end
        end
    end
end
#

Ofc you want to be careful when doing this - don't want to be causing possible issues like giving a Glock a gl_chance when it can't have one KekSkew

fathom wagon
# summer stream so you can use that to change the gun you dislike with the one you like <:DerpTh...

This would be how you would replace a weapon (in this example - replacing the M4 with a Glock)

init_settings = xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.init_settings
xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.init_settings = function ()
    init_settings()
    for k,v in pairs(xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts) do
        local original_size = #xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k]
        for i = original_size, 1, -1 do
            local d = xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k][i]
            if d.sec == "wpn_m4" then
                printf("Found M4 -> replacing with Glock entry")
                xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.loadouts[k][i].sec = "wpn_glock"
            end
        end

it was that way like when u told me to

get the charging handle on both sides

it had only zatvor2 and zatvor3 vertex groups

well remember that the lens bone for 3dss can't be used for anything else that isn't the lens itself

How difficult would it be in theory to transfer cv98 and vssk from dx11 to dx8? The problem is that these weapons are tied to 3dssg, and therefore, in the patch for dx8, sv98 has an old model, and vssk does not have modularity.

Do you know how to user Blender

But is that really the main problem there? I understand that in theory you will need a blender to transfer the sv98 model, but everything seems to be ready for the vssk.

# ancient zenith How difficult would it be in theory to transfer cv98 and vssk from dx11 to dx8? ...

Open the wpn_sv98_hud.ogf in OGF editor checkpins , remove 3 meshes tied to 3dss (reticle, scope zwrite, scope back) and save. Now the game won't crash in dx8. Next, in the LTX file from 3dss mod there should be a line that says "scope_texture =", so you add the 2d scope overlay texture there, without the file extension. They're usually named wpn_crosshair_something.dds and are present in gamma.
I'm on mobile so all of this is from memory, I might've made small mistakes.

It's already combined in the crosshair texture.
