[main plover]

Is there any good AR platform drum mag weapon that uses different animation than BAS ones?

[lilac idol]

nah

it's just the ones shinyhaxorus did afaik

[main plover]

It is what it is then :/

[crimson salmon]

what do people usually name mag bones besides mag mag_30 magazin and magazine

[lilac idol]

magazineX or magazine_X if there's multiple

[crimson salmon]

okay

[safe nimbus]

I need to talk to someone who works on animations. Need help with a little something.

[lilac idol]

depends on what it is though

[safe nimbus]

Let me make a short video for you.

Do you see the flickering when the backpack enters a static state after the animation closes?

How do I fix, or at least negate that.

I narrowed it down to it being an F.D.D.A problem, and not stemming from me.

I feel like it has to do with the textures of the backpack in a moving state, vs. the static state at full resolution.

I've tried halving the textures hoping it would resolve the issue, but it hasn't.

This is my mod, by the way. Not asking for mod help.

[lilac idol]

best possible solution would be importing the animation in blender and reducing the movement and rotation curves for those frames

[safe nimbus]

Welp, I don't have blender nor do I know how to do that. I have never touched animations in my life.

Thank you for your time.

[lilac idol]

well it certainly doesn't feel like a texture problem but more of an animation one yeah

[safe nimbus]

That's what I was thinking.

[lilac idol]

it shouldn't be difficult to fix

[safe nimbus]

Regular F.D.D.A backpack animations do the same thing, so I knew it wasn't my textures.

[lilac idol]

it's just import> tweak 5 frames> export

[safe nimbus]

Blender free, no?

[lilac idol]

yeah

[safe nimbus]

Can you help me real quick? I'd greatly appreciate it.

[lilac idol]

yeah for sure

[safe nimbus]

Thank you very much.

Just message me privately.

If you don't mind.

[lilac idol]

I'm hitting the sack soon but I'll try to stick around for a bit

[safe nimbus]

Alright, I appreciate you doing this for me.

[safe nimbus]

Fixed the animation and it's a lot smoother.

[strange stone]

How do I change the picture of a loved one to this

[sonic bolt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1G-LswgKeg

[safe nimbus]

Made an idle animation for my backpack mod, and F.D.D.A both.

What do you guys think?

Kinda like a breathing animation.

Subtle.

[novel ruin]

wish you can make the backpack animation like stalker 2, you reach into the backpack and moving stuff, that would be cool but it require more rigging

for now its still good

[safe nimbus]

I'm still tweaking it.

[agile parcel]

Good day people, tell me if there is some kind of tool to see what is connected with what? I want to change the NPC texture

Greetings.
Just wandering about the mod "Classes and talents".
Does anybody can handle to modify it in the way that any talent can be learnt from any class?
Basically I am looking for the possibility to open all the time the classes menu if you already selected it.

[hot salmon]

😏

[pseudo forum]

hello guys i want to ask smthing is there an mod that make you able to craft the explosives in the game

[dire gust]

How much would you take in order to update mod like this?

[hot salmon]

a shit tonn of time

[misty mulch]

pretty sure you already can

yeah you absolutely can

[safe nimbus]

Now that I know how to make my own animations I'll try that when I get home.

[sonic bolt]

Does anyone know what I'm missing? Trying to add some retextured sleeves but keep getting this crash for THAP hands

[copper bolt]

TL;DR explaining a very long post - Attempting Metal Gear Solid style First-Third Person Aim Toggle by modifying PTP Camera, absolutely ZERO scripting skills or knowledge, probably giving up again, but here's what I learned and how far I got. Screenshot is the function in ptp_camera.script, with a comment I added about disabling the mods POV change without crashing, txt file is the TL;DR
I'll take this to Anomaly Discord if that makes more sense. Just occurred to me.

I'm learning.

[main plover]

Is that too much tacticoolness for simple mpx that will shoot 9x21 isntead of 9x19?

[lilac ibex]

straight from some CS 1.6 mod

[main plover]

My idea is that it's Freedom tinkered one they have too much 9x21 laying around and they made drum loaded version

[barren spruce]

na its cool

not sure about the drum

but rest is cool

[main plover]

If I leave it 30 bullets it's just cooler veresk with better scopes

I was considering middle ground and make it 40 long mag then I could ditch foregrip and make it shorter because right now with animations that are available I made very long "Small" Machine Gun

[safe nimbus]

No, gimme gimme.

[safe nimbus]

50 round drum variant and 30 round variant would be 🔥🔥🔥

[barren spruce]

dont listen to dave

hes as clueless as it gets

[barren spruce]

yeah i get the impression

would have to see a diff variant with the drum off

preferably ingame

overall is cool tho

just not digging the drum as i said

gotta ask juan what he thinks tho

[safe nimbus]

You could also change out the foregrip to an angled style grip.

[barren spruce]

nah thats some femboy shit dave

[barren spruce]

ye its just cleaner

although the barrel is maybe too short

[safe nimbus]

It looks nice as a CQB version, but I like the look of the drum variant for medium range. Even if you use a 40 rnd magazine instead.

Super clean though.

Tasty grip.

[main plover]

supperssor longer than body

[safe nimbus]

Wouldn't CQB benefit from a drum mag?

[barren spruce]

bro wdym CQB 😭

[safe nimbus]

CQC*

[barren spruce]

its not ready or not

[safe nimbus]

My b

[main plover]

COQ and Ball torture

[barren spruce]

ye cock tumbling

tell us about it dave

[safe nimbus]

All day er' day

[barren spruce]

i dont speak australian sorry

[safe nimbus]

I like my tacticool weapons. 🤣

Makes sense for the zone.

Black marketed Western weapons.

[barren spruce]

it literally doesnt tho

youre brainrotted by ready or not bro

[safe nimbus]

Yes it does. The Mercenaries and UNISG are western based factions.

They're being supplied with weapons from outside the zone.

[barren spruce]

tell me more

[safe nimbus]

No.

[barren spruce]

theres your femboy grip dave

what do u think

[upbeat wedge]

perfect if you had like a canted laser to go with the top laser

dual laser

mindfuck freedom garbage

realistically a canted sight but i mean freedom cant focus that well onto a small reticle

too high out of their minds yknow

[safe nimbus]

Looks good to me.

[safe nimbus]

Canted sight? Nah, canted laser.

[sonic bolt]

Does anyone know how I can make a DLTX for this file? No matter what I do I have to edit this specific file in order to get changes. Even having an ltx with the exact same name at a higher priority doesn't change it

[quartz hill]

looks like it is included directly into system.ltx so you need to make a mod_system dltx

[sonic bolt]

Do I keep it in configs or in the creatures folder?

[quartz hill]

configs, same as any other mod_system

[sonic bolt]

Actually come to think of it I don't think I need to make a dltx cuz I'm not overwriting anything, just adding new stuff

[quartz hill]

i think you might still need to but idk what exactly you are doing so

[sonic bolt]

I'm just trying to add some retextured hand models for my player model mod. They're new entries so they shouldn't overwrite anything (I hope )

sweet, it still works

[crimson salmon]

this g3a3 from sketchfab or the g3a3 from insurgency sandstorm, asking for when i start work on the g3 in my mod

[sonic bolt]

The Sandstorm one has a picatinny rail which could make adding 3DSS easier, it could also be better optimized for games too

[crimson salmon]

not for anomaly

was gonna remove the picatinny anyways lol

ill compare the textures

[lilac ibex]

eh its gonna look terrible in iwp

[crimson salmon]

? how

[lilac ibex]

CoC ahh shaders

[crimson salmon]

iwp weapons look good

[undone spruce]

hmm, ok, did Moddb just empty the mod add page after i try to upload or it is processing smth

[undone lily]

Yeah go for it

[main plover]

Long mag?

[undone lily]

👍

Yeah the 41 mag makes it different meta wise

Always looking for new 9x21 guns

(Although yeah it’s 9x19 normally)

[sonic bolt]

Just found out it kills exo animations for some reason

Aw hell it's only for the exo arm I modded in

Does anyone know how to add the exo heal anims to a new exoskeleton hand model?

[main plover]

I read somewhere it comes in some obscure 9x21 IMI caliber and the idea sticked to me

[undone lily]

Oh ok! I like it a lot

Will it use UDP animations ?

[main plover]

Entirely different in purpose than gryuza but you you see the vision

[main plover]

Propably yes I need animation that utilize ar type charging handle so it fits maybe I will use some fancy AR platform animation

[celest forge]

What about the drum mag

And the foregrip

[main plover]

It just looks bulky it becomes very long "smg"

[summer stream]

silly long smg

[main plover]

Like it looks like proper AR with small drum mag that doesn't match size of a gun

[celest forge]

No but I mean

What are you gonnna do for the animations on that front

Because unless i'm wrong the UDP has a stick mag and no foregrip

[main plover]

Angled grip was just proof of concept and changing reloading animation a little bit wouldn't be a problem

[main plover]

If we talking about drum mag version it would use tweaked animation for m4 butcher

I already have it rigged with that animation rest is proof of concept

But in the end plan is to make two variants classic mpx 9x19 with very basic look 30 mag etc
Starting loadout for nato factions

And distinct "freedom" 9x21 version internally suppressed in stock with laser sight maybe some small paint job "Воля", green cloth wrap, hand guard from different weapon all together garage work looking gun, for higher rank freedomers and legends from other factions with upgrade kit available at nimble and freedom traders at maxed out lvl

[lilac idol]

main problem you'd face is that the mag is facing the other way

that's just relevant since some of the animations are holding the mag by the bottom of I remember correctly

also just so you know I once rigged an mpx in my other anims for shits and giggles and wasn't nearly as bad as I expected

you could also use that if you are willing to ignore/fix the obvious errors

[summer stream]

silly

[lilac idol]

truly yeah

[random fulcrum]

that bolt release hit is almost way too violent

considering how much screen free estate it uses, even if for just a couple of frames

[main plover]

Looks good for me

[lilac idol]

yeah but it isn't nearly as bad as in game when you also have camera animations and stuff

[lilac idol]

also sandstorm's are a good choice in general

[summer stream]

also pillii

what's your opinion on animating fingers

[lilac idol]

it's so cool when you get it right

other than that it makes my life miserable

[summer stream]

imagine i need to animate fingers on this

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/958342885005221898/1195534644079251486/trevor.gif

(this makes me suffer)

[lilac idol]

manually?

[summer stream]

yes

[lilac idol]

hell nah

[summer stream]

you cant do shit about bones

from gmod

they are like rotated -90

on Z

as nekyo explained

so it's compliated asf

[lilac idol]

can't you apply an offset to bones using modifiers or something

[summer stream]

idk i didnt try it

[lilac idol]

idk then try to see if there's anything like that on blender

[summer stream]

ough

overly complicated skeleton for 203 bones against 60 bones in stalker

[main plover]

How many bones upd animation has? If you remember not at home rn so I can't check myself

[lilac idol]

nah no clue honestly

maybe 15 or something

why though

[main plover]

Because when I checked honey banger I dipped out

[lilac idol]

it's about the same

[main plover]

Hmm maybe I got something confused then

I will need to check later

[summer stream]

tbh gloss does makes a big difference
my gun doesnt look like shit

[main plover]

How big is that gun or how small is that hand

[summer stream]

(the ssfx)

[summer stream]

That is
an AK50

[main plover]

Ah

[summer stream]

and that hand is from TARKOV

so both are not small or big

[lament current]

does anyone know where to find the textures for the backpack animations

[main plover]

Textures are named mortbag or something like that

[lament current]

thanks, i used my brain and remembered i had HQ Backpacks i could work from there.. but thank you very much.

[hot salmon]

Can someone datamine for me certain voice lines from S2? Considering adding all lore stuff from S2 Swamps to #1394305689752436801

[lament current]

https://fmodel.app/

you will ned a key most likely.. for some encryption.. but its not that hard to do

[hot salmon]

and S2

bruh

[lament current]

what? its software made to mine U engine 5 daya

[hot salmon]

And i probably need S2 for it to datamine somethinh

and i don't have it installed

so this is why i asking someone else

[lament current]

yes, then it will be difficult

[lament current]

in my little experience with stalker modding, its hard to get people to do stuff for you.
but its easier to ask on how to do it. and do it yourself.. just talking from experience.. everyone buisy with there own projects.
but you could get lucky.. try searching around nexus mods in the stalker 2 section.. you might find something you could use is already there

[hot salmon]

i know

already searched half of internet

even S2 wiki is unfinished

bruh

[lament current]

looks like you gotta grease up the elbows and get mining son hehe

[hot salmon]

nah, its not first priority thing

[lament current]

s2 you can get cheap with gamepass. and then mine it

[hot salmon]

funny

[main plover]

I would kill for psd files for HD models textures

[lament current]

maybe i could help

[main plover]

[lament current]

you mean PS files of all textures?

[main plover]

Yup Photoshop ones, I managed to grab only like 70% of ISG/merc

[lament current]

cant you just dll HD models. and open them with photoshop?
are HD models gone now?

[main plover]

HD models are gone i need project files

Where you have split texture in layers

[lament current]

ah yes, those i cant help with

[lament current]

do you have DDS cfg for you photoshop?

[main plover]

As an action?

No

I should have done it tho

Because I made like 50 textures for ISG

[lament current]

yeah, you can realtively easy set up Photoshop to handle DDS.. want me to send you some material for that?

[main plover]

Yes please

[lament current]

hang on lad

[main plover]

Anyway I need to find better Photoshop instalation because cs6 doesn't handle alpha channels well

[lament current]

put those plugins in your ps plugins folder.
along with qubemaps

[main plover]

Thx

[lament current]

np. let me know if you need anything else

[main plover]

I see you use Intel texture works I use nvidia plugin. I will make action myself later I guess

[lament current]

https://gametechdev.github.io/Intel-Texture-Works-Plugin/

https://modthegalaxy.com/index.php?threads/plugin-nvidia-photoshop-dds-plugin.13/

first link is the solution i use 🙂

now merc you said?

[main plover]

I have access to base textures and 70/80% project files for merc/ISG because they share models

[lament current]

damn sorry, dont have them anymore.. i did some work on mercs.. and i had PS files for those. but ive deleted it

sorry

[main plover]

If they were in German language they prob from the same source as mine

[lament current]

btw have you worked with OGM coversion. i made a BAT. file converter. and it does convert my mp4 avi files into OGM.. but it does not look like i want it too.. im working on PDA and want moving live wallpaper

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wq-TUdetK1M

but as you can see it didnt quite work out haha

[main plover]

Hmm I would try to check details of compression of original animated texture from this mod

[lament current]

oh yeah, and then reverse it.. ofc clever lad

[main plover]

I was using it myself but even without animations it was laggy

[lament current]

yeah, maybe a good looking static background would look best.. and save myself some time

[main plover]

Maybe @woven terrace has some psd files from HD models laying around
For 3 years in trash bin

[lament current]

most likely. ask him.. hes a awsome dude

[lament current]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ru-d3QriymE

HUDm PDA, Nightvision, and backpack. all in a black white and red style

oh yeah and 4 radio channels

[woven terrace]

https://tenor.com/view/ive-been-summoned-summoned-summoning-gif-26707825

So. Waddaya need?

[main plover]

Do you have by anychance project files(psd format) for HD models textures?

I know you did retexture whooping 3 years ago but maybe you have backed it up somewhere

[woven terrace]

For sure. What exactly do you need and to what end?
I am working on a larger camo pack right now, so I can't share those, I hope you understand. But I can surely try and help you with whatever you are working on

[main plover]

I have my share of psd files for unisg/merc textures because they are shared across, but my collection is incomplete

Missing mainly nosorog/exo armor project files, and hats/caps

It's unisg taz camo retexture

[woven terrace]

Hmmm. I don't remember having done those. But can easily make camo masks in PS.

[main plover]

If you would have free time to help/explain how to do that I would be grateful. Because it's definetly possible to be done but my photoshop skills are restrained by knowing what layer and channel is and how to replace said layer

[pseudo forum]

wait am not saying it clear sorry i mean to craft the gl ammunition from scrap that can find in the open world

[celest forge]

@undone spruce made some icons for your guns if you want em

[tawdry pier]

Evening, any modders online with weapon modding experience? I have a question about a model bug ive run into in my playtrou.

I battled a merc that wielded a AEK-971 and i saw him holding it in a weird way.
After (lucky) looting i double checked the AEK-971 on the player model and when equipping it with any scope the weapon is floating below the hands. (see pictures) (Only exception is the 1p59 which is fine because it uses the default AEK + PSO)
I ve made a little override mod, only for w_aek.ltx to revert to the AEK-971 + PSO if any scope is equipped, which ofc isnt ideal because this puts all those specific ones into the trash bin.

Long story short : Is the placement of the weapon embedded into the model or a config file that i havent found yet?
I would like to fix it myself but i need to know if i have to dive into blender or if there is a simpler way to fix it?

(forgot : The AEK is also fine if no scope is equipped)

[crimson salmon]

its probably .ltx issue small chance that its model issue

[tawdry pier]

hm k ty, so i will try to find it then 😉

[crimson salmon]

this should help

[tawdry pier]

OH holy thanks man!

[tawdry pier]

Thanks man i fixed it in 10 min for every scope.

For some weired reason the world models arent happy with Y -0.155 ... so i redefined it in the ltx file to 0

Does anyone know how to fix this? Trying to add retextured exoskeleton arms

[fair canopy]

You're probably missing the configs for whatever adds that screen

[sonic bolt]

The hard part is finding which config edits it

I assume it's items_anm_exo.ltx

I also assume FDDAR changes it I can't find any files that pertain to the screen/arms

anyopne know how to rip ogf iles from the games? I tried the axr toolkit but my antivirus flagged it with malware, anyone know how to get it officially? or do so properly?

this is for a blender animation

figured out I could unpack from the tools in anomaly and get ogfs that way, still not sure if the axr toolset is legit or not since most tutorials point towards it

[tardy flicker]

Does anyone have experience with adding hud progress bars? I need some help figuring out how I'm supposed to align the background and bar, or if there's an easier way I can test. I've been going in & out of game changing the x,y positions by 1 each time & it's still not aligning properly unless I use decimals.

You are doing it wrong

this is what happens if you use new thap without fixes for exos

check in a couple of minutes if my message gets edited

Oh, there it goes

They never fixed their "av", naturally

anyway, get what the tutorials are pointing you at

and disable windows defender permanently in favour of actually working av

[pale mason]

who uses windows defender? also name fits

[sonic bolt]

Guess I'm a THAP hater now

Can you point me in the right direction then?

[slow bolt]

No other AV in existence flags those files

[slow bolt]

dont take files from current thap. Either take them from MHP, that IWP Exos mod, or older thap

Current thap has removed wrist pc thing

I got it to work nonetheless, well mine does apperentally lol

[sonic bolt]

Thank you 🙏 Hope it works out

[sonic bolt]

Hmm, I copied the hands straight from MHP and IWP yet the screen is still off, is it possible that FDDAR could mess this up?

[slow bolt]

Double check, cause as you can clearly see - the screen is just fine on source models

I've only been transferring the arm ogf, do I need everything else too?

Morning, can anyone explain to me what fire_point2 in the weapon ltx is?
(Description : Coordinates of the fire particle from the shot, when viewed from the 3rd person from the holster)

Can anyone elaborate "from the holster" ?

[novel ruin]

from Prof. Lander: fire_point2 is a little more mysterious, i think it's a general-purpose secondary fire bone for weapons and / or other handheld items that need to define either a separate fire bone, or one that doesn't fall under the standard fire_point semantic

probably for GL

[lost berry]

oh, so should i just do that with this?

is that the issue? or is there more?

[summer stream]

it IS the issue

[lost berry]

ok, so if i remove the colons, and put it like you have it there, it should work?

[summer stream]

since the thing about [wpn_...]:wpn_ak
suppose to mean that it's to use properities of that specific thing

but it's overwriting so that thing not supposed to even look like that

[lost berry]

hmm ok, they did say theyre not amazing at DTLX

so to be fair, its better than what id do

[summer stream]

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

Cursed

[hot salmon]

i've ported Dead Air Shaders to Anomaly

looking... not too good

[spring mango]

https://tenor.com/view/кот-курит-кот-услышал-тебя-родной-cat-smoke-cat-ai-gif-10837468945082932083

[lilac ibex]

thats because dead air has its own engine edits

and theres a little point in porting DA shaders. most of the code is in combine2naa - so its postprocess

[hot salmon]

I was looking for dust shaders

[lilac ibex]

there's no dust shaders

it's particles

[hot salmon]

zero idea how its calls

[lilac ibex]

welp, static particles

[hot salmon]

well, anyway, i was looking for this

small white dots

[lilac ibex]

level.ps_static

or maybe he's spawning them through script, i don't remember. there isn't any shader for dust other than mine and KD's

[hot salmon]

oh god i made it even worse

[lilac ibex]

mmmm normals

aha, you will need additional engine edits for FXAA, all constant buffers (+shader defines)

and some tweaks for sun shafts (screen-space) rendering
lens dirt shader requires new texture (blender_combine.cpp)
then it should work w/o issues

[hot salmon]

I just want to find\understand if i can port this particles inside buildings

[lilac ibex]

it's not about the shader 😛

[hot salmon]

Alright, will try looking in scripts

huh, its vanilla

no way they just commented it

[lilac ibex]

probably caused issues

[hot salmon]

time to find out

[barren crown]

Does anyone know how to add scopes to weapons?

I know how to make the blender ogfs

and make the code so its like:
scopes = acog, eot, e0t2

I just need help with the rest

ok nvm figured it out myself

[misty mulch]

inheritance. [section]:parent section means "use whatever exists in parent section except for the changes listed below"

[barren crown]

how do i change reticle size

[summer stream]

https://tenor.com/view/zani-bocchi-the-rock-rtx-on-wutheringwaves-赤鬼akaoni-gif-11958083563271928266

[barren crown]

is this correct

the sights wont attach

[lilac idol]

remove scope_status =

[barren crown]

i did

they still wont

except for Eotech and Acog + AC106

C-more wont even attach

[main plover]

If those are new scopes don't add

![Scope definition]

Just [scope definition]

Because it doesn't have anything to override so it doesn't work properly

Simply remove esclamation mark from brand new parts of weapon config

[barren crown]

the top part

or all

[main plover]

All if you add new scopes instead of changing existing ones remove the esclamation mark from the parts

[barren crown]

ok so all

ty

[main plover]

Post your ltx after you do that

[main plover]

I will check in a minute

[barren crown]

It works

now how do I change reticle size

[main plover]

That's texture work

[barren crown]

The other guns have a bigger reticle

Hold on let me get an example

[main plover]

I just opened .ltx

Which mod do you use for ace21

Alright found it

[fair canopy]

Probably due to aim position

If you're going to dltx scopes In, don't redefine the scopes parameter, instead use the '>' operator in front of scopes and list your new scopes you want to add

[main plover]

and make ltx separate file with just new definitions you just rewritten whole weapon confing

[misty mulch]

that. in a DLTX file, do not list parameters you are not modifying.

[misty mulch]

the point of DLTX is that you only change things that need changing

[main plover]

Like if you do it for your own use and want to edit mod file itself(because propably that what happend) it's fine but it's nice practice for future

[barren crown]

thats the main ltx file for the gun

[barren crown]

too many words.. please explain to me like im a fool

[misty mulch]

honestly deranged of them to make a DLTX instead of a normal LTX for that

[fair canopy]

If you're doing a normal ltx then you should make new sections all together, not dltx changes

[barren crown]

auhh

still having problems understanding

im stupid

[undone spruce]

The least youd need to do is create a new sections about the gun with scope and its hud and add the scope name into the scope list

[barren crown]

thats what i did

[main plover]

But you edited main file you should just add it in separate file with a name for example

mod_system_ace21_scopes.ltx

and with approach as it is diffrent mod
so it's own file structure

especially because you add your own ogf

[undone spruce]

So id guess you make a ltx like this

![wpn_gun]

scopes = yourscope

the parameters youd need to change

The parameters youd need for scopes hud

[barren crown]

okay

[undone spruce]

dltx i.e. the ! operator (and others) are used to change parameters of already existing sections

You have to create new section for the gun and gun hud that alters it to have the scope, but by using the : operator after the section name means it'll copy whatever is not declared from the mentioned section

[barren crown]

ouhh

this is like einstein talking to a toddler

[undone spruce]

Focus on the previously message

Im not on pc rn so i can wrong rn

But you will need to create a mod_system_something.ltx file with the text and data mentioned

[misty mulch]

you can also read my DLTX guide https://github.com/veerserif/gamma-dashboard/blob/main/dltx_guide.md

[barren crown]

ok

they should make your guide a command

like !dltx

if it isnt already

[misty mulch]

it is pinned. along with a LOT of other references.

[barren crown]

oh

is this correct

inside the LTX

[misty mulch]

why is your MO2 in appdata/local in the first place?

best to do a portable install of Anomaly rather than a global one.

[misty mulch]

also if you're making your own DLTX - make a new mod

do not alter one that you've downloaded.

this is ESPECIALLY true if you are trying to make a modpack.

[misty mulch]

as for contents - since this is DLTX, you must add a ! in front of all sections you modify. Reread the DLTX syntax links in the Anomaly modding guidebook, I link to it in my guide

[barren crown]

this is a new one

[misty mulch]

ok, good

then yes refer back to the DLTX syntax section - you need the !

[barren crown]

Okay

I thought it would be the same as affecting the base system

[misty mulch]

not quite

[barren crown]

also made the models

[misty mulch]

or refer back to #╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

[barren crown]

yeah i'll take the base code from the system, remove the new sights added in the old one and move it to the new sys

does this need to be moved too or is it unneccesary

[misty mulch]

don't copy anything you are not going to alter

[barren crown]

Okay okay

this does need the old sights too right

[misty mulch]

with that syntax? yes

scopes = whatever = "overwrite the old scopes parameter with what i type here"
>scopes = whatever = ADD "whatever" to the list of stuff already in scopes

[barren crown]

Ohhh

Now i understand the > part

[misty mulch]

this is what ATHI was saying in this comment. #╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

[barren crown]

yeah i get it now

its just i am pretty illiterate when it comes to this type of stuff

all the people using big words

this is correct right

[fair canopy]

You don't need to redefine the hud pointer

You also don't need to add inheritance to sections you're modifying

[barren crown]

huh

how do i config something to use a scope png

still need to learn a lot..

[lost berry]

@summer stream yeah that was the issue, i tested it now, the game runs, no crashes with the dltx file

so those colons were the issue indeed

im gonna go put this in mods posting for the people who wanted it, thank you for helping me find the issue

(i gotta test it first tho, im not trying to fix it after people say it doesnt work)

[lost berry]

ok, maybe its NOT working

how the hell would i test if an item drops

[sonic bolt]

Go to the debug map, spawn a shitton of stalkers and keep killing

If it doesn't show up after a lot of bodies something's gone wrong

[lost berry]

been doing that

so i think its not working

hmm

alchem do you know anything about dtlx and loadouts?

ANYTHING

even basic troubleshooting

[sonic bolt]

Lil bit, don't really know if NPCs can drop tools though

[lost berry]

they can drop other tools

pretty sure they can drop anything you tell them to

[sonic bolt]

But Veer's guide should be everything you need to know tho

[lost berry]

for the most part

[lost berry]

i mean yeah, but i want you to take a look quick

[sonic bolt]

I'd ask the pros, but can't help to look

[lost berry]

maybe file structure is off

idk

ive been killing shit with the KS-12 for like 10 min

all master/legend like the file says

[barren crown]

Who knows how to edit the size of reticles on guns?

My reticles are currently abysmally tiny

[sonic bolt]

Ain't having much luck either tried making it a mod_system file but no dice

[misty mulch]

to be clear... my guide is the start of what you need to know

[misty mulch]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

[misty mulch]

1. What is your file structure in your mod?
2. Do you know for sure that system is the root?

[sonic bolt]

just gamedata\configs\mod_system_death_items

[misty mulch]

system is not the root for death_items.ltx

use LTXDiff

[barren crown]

the aim position is not affecting anything if he was mentioning that.

[sonic bolt]

Eh, I was just throwing stuff at the wall and hoping something would stick

[misty mulch]

yeah don't do that: use LTXDiff (I go over how in my guide), figure out the proper root

[sonic bolt]

Not my mod anyways, atroxinal just wanted me to test

[sonic bolt]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message

[quartz hill]

@lost berry try this maybe?

[misty mulch]

i will repeat:

1. system is not the root
2. therefore your file structure is also wrong for the LTX file you want to modify

[misty mulch]

make him do the homework

[quartz hill]

okay

[sonic bolt]

Modder hazing

[quartz hill]

not sure if he is up to it

[lost berry]

bro my brain is fried

[misty mulch]

also first line is kind of fucked

[basic_kit][basic_kit]
itm_basickit                                                = 0.5

[lost berry]

ive been doing math all day

[misty mulch]

take a break, come back to it with fresh eyes

[lost berry]

oh i got a crash

hmmm

time to look at log and be confused

[misty mulch]

anyway as for the file itself - if you look at death_generic.ltx you will notice every item has TWO listed values, not just one

Additionally this is not how you do inheritance

![army_private_master]
advanced_kit

This is how you do inheritance

![army_private_master]:advanced_kit

[lost berry]

so it was right the first time?

[misty mulch]

but if you were going to do that - you may as well write them all out in full

[lost berry]

and that means that the issue lies elsewhere, correct?

[misty mulch]

if you look at death_generic.ltx you will notice every item has TWO listed values, not just one
more like there are multiple issues

[lost berry]

ughhhh this sucks

ok, just means i need to use my brain more

im gonna go back to anon's version pre tweaks, because it was closer to correct

[quartz hill]

also veer do you know why community_private_rank is used instead of community_rank

[misty mulch]

nope

you'd have to read the actual death_manager.script to figure out why

ditto whether you need 1 or 2 values for items

and why

since none of it is documented

[quartz hill]

i did take a look and it seems to be always used? or maybe another function is used somewhere else that uses the other sections

[misty mulch]

it's in this for loop, lines 51-74

-- Collect community items
for k1,v1 in pairs(community_list) do
    for k2,v2 in pairs(private) do
        for k3,v3 in pairs(ranks) do
            local x = v1 .. v2 .. v3
            item_by_community[x] = {}
            if death_ini:section_exist(x) then
                local n = death_ini:line_count(x)
                local id, value = "", ""
                local cnt = 0
                for i=0,n-1 do
                    result, id, value= death_ini:r_line_ex(x,i,"","")
                    local temp = not (death_ini:line_exist("exclude_from_multi",id)) and diff_multi or 1
                    cnt = cnt + 1
                    item_by_community[x][cnt] = {}
                    item_by_community[x][cnt].sec = id
                    item_by_community[x][cnt].cha = value and tonumber(value) * temp or 0
                    --printf("item by community difficulty multi %s : %s",temp,item_by_community[x][id])
                end
                shuffle_table(item_by_community[x])
            end
        end
    end
end

[quartz hill]

in the create_release_item function the create_item_list function is called like so
create_item_list(npc, npc_comm, npc_rank, true)
and when that 4th param is true it uses the community_private_rank sections

local spawn_section
    if is_private then
        local sect = npc_comm .. "_private_" .. npc_rank
        if item_by_community[sect] then
            spawn_section = sect
        elseif item_by_community[character_community(npc) .. "_private"] then
            spawn_section = character_community(npc) .. "_private"
        end
    else
        local sect = npc_comm .. "_" .. npc_rank
        if item_by_community[sect] then
            spawn_section = sect
        elseif item_by_community[character_community(npc)] then
            spawn_section = character_community(npc)
        end
    end

[misty mulch]

so two variants of drop lists. why? for what reason?

[lost berry]

so how would i implement the 2 value thing?

[quartz hill]

xray shenanigans

[lost berry]

i looked at it, and i dont exactly understand what that means...

[misty mulch]

although to be clear "private" seems to refer to "items that aren't visible in the 'trade with random stalker' menu", which would also make sense

"items only shown in NPC inventory on death, versus on trade"

[misty mulch]

no idea either

[lost berry]

shit

[quartz hill]

oh i probably missed that lmao

[lost berry]

either youre serious, or trying to make me do the work

so i will just go try my best

[misty mulch]

both - i don't know how it works either.

[lost berry]

but i mean, do just slap 2 values there for shits and giggles?

[misty mulch]

no idea

genuinely, no idea.

[lost berry]

then how am I expected to do this?

[misty mulch]

read the script with the rest of us

[lost berry]

script?

im slow ok?

[misty mulch]

death_manager.script, the script that actually reads the configs and does something with all the values listed

[lost berry]

oh ok

[misty mulch]

figure out how it's using the config, you figure out what the values mean

and then you can figure out how to change the config to achieve what you want

[lost berry]

lemme go look it up in MO2 data

ok i got it

[misty mulch]

it won't be in GAMMA fyi, you need to unpack anomaly

if you haven't already

[lost berry]

wut?

[misty mulch]

GAMMA doesn't have a copy of death_manager.script, it's part of the packed basegame files

[lost berry]

i mean... i sure see death_manager.script here

so i probably did

[misty mulch]

so, you have to run db_unpacker.bat

and look in _unpacked/scripts. this is not part of GAMMA, the modpack.

[quartz hill]

also i think the two value thing is to determine the amount of that item spawning if it is chosen to spawn
something like section = min_value, max_value

[misty mulch]

oh my bad gamma DOES have a copy. fuckin of course

[lost berry]

yeah it do

[misty mulch]

but on second look, death_items doesn't do two

just one, which i have to assume is probability of spawn, and only single items

[misty mulch]

mm, looks more like "number of items, probability of spawn" based on lines 76-88, if i'm reading it right?

oh fuckin it IS min max

[wary scroll]

@misty mulch may i ask a little question in your dm (needs to be privet)?

[misty mulch]

wow i really am having trouble following shit

[misty mulch]

if it is anything to do with gamma support, better to do it here, since i obv can't do bot commands in DMs
if it's about how the server is run... you can ask but i can't promise answers.

[lost berry]

ok, can you put this into english for my simple, fried mind?

and which fucking ltx are we on currently?

[quartz hill]

death_generic

[lost berry]

ah ok

[misty mulch]

if i understood it i could. i don't, so i can't.

[lost berry]

ah ok

so should i put 2 values?

[misty mulch]

no idea

[wary scroll]

alright it's kind of important and not related to gamma support
more to know something

[misty mulch]

generic as hell but ok

[quartz hill]

you may need to add lines for the toolkits to the item_count section for them to spawn since i don't think they are already defined there

[misty mulch]

nothing in death_items.ltx has min/max count and everything is a 0 to 1 float, which makes me assume this is probability of spawn?

[quartz hill]

thats what it looks like to me yeah

[lost berry]

veer, is there a way to verify that something drops ingame? or do you literally run debug and kill tons

[misty mulch]

debug and murder. i would set your presumed-probability to 1 for testing

so e.g. itm_basickit = 1 so that they, presumably, always drop

just to make sure you know it works

[lost berry]

its at 0.5

wouldnt that be 50/50?

[misty mulch]

why? if you're testing to see if your DLTX even works, set it to 1 so it always drops first.

[misty mulch]

DM away

[lost berry]

(i started game before doing that )

i didnt think about it tbh

looking back, it would be easier if it was 1

[misty mulch]

F7 -> F5

this should reload configs

[lost berry]

ok

i will check it out

once test map loads

[misty mulch]

so you don't have to restart the whole game to make the change lmao

[lost berry]

loading it rn

[lost berry]

this is going to help TREMENDOUSLY in the future

i really should have read debug mode

[misty mulch]

#╓☢stalker-chat message this is what actually does or doesn't reload if you use F7 -> F5

[sonic bolt]

It took me a while to realize that I could test my loadout changes by just F2ing

[quartz hill]

the npc loadouts script also has a function to simulate loadout generation

[main plover]

Does it look plausible?

[lost berry]

oh ok, so it will work fine then

just changed a thing

[lost berry]

what the fuck is this?

are those rounds flatheads?

they look like a flathead screwdriver

plausible? how so?

[sonic bolt]

Anomalous ammo

[misty mulch]

and, yeah, reminder - since the root file is death_generic, your folder structure should be gamedata/configs/items/settings/mod_death_generic_yourModNameHere.ltx

not just gamedata/configs

[sonic bolt]

Wait, you can test if NPC loadouts change? How?

or is this me being dumbge

[lost berry]

didnt drop

fuck

[quartz hill]

this function in xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.script
can just call it via the function executer and it will print to console

[lost berry]

that is what my path is

it doesnt work tho...

hmm

[lost berry]

btw i tried your file, still doesnt work, so its cooked

[sonic bolt]

so i don't have to endlessly kill random mooks to find out if my npc loadouts work? Nice

Also can you explain how the function executor thingy works 🥹

[misty mulch]

loadout != Items in NPC inv on death tho

[quartz hill]

make a mod_death_generic with the toolkits added to the item_count section and try

[lost berry]

what exactly do you mean "item_count" section?

[misty mulch]

Could even put it in the same DLTX file

Somewhere up top

itm_basickit = 1,1

And so on

[quartz hill]

do you mean they don't drop the weapons they use?

[misty mulch]

I meant more that atrox doesn't seem to be modifying weapon drops atm so he shouldn't try to use it to see if this toolkit stuff works

[quartz hill]

oh ok lmao

[lost berry]

why is there always a space between the item name, and the = x part

im curious

its always like across the .ltx

[misty mulch]

Because then it's readable for humans?

[lost berry]

ah ok

but if i were to put 1 space for instance, it would work

[misty mulch]

White space (tabs, indents, spaces before or after) don't matter for the machine

It's entirely for human readability

[main plover]

9x21 in 9x19 mag

[lost berry]

i mean, kinda?

the bullet just wouldnt fit

but yeah to some extent

[quartz hill]

you can p much call any function by
script_name.function_name(arg1, arg2 ...)

[lilac idol]

if it doesn't fit just scale on either Y or Z, whichever makes it longer/shorter

[sonic bolt]

In game?

[quartz hill]

yeah via the executer

[sonic bolt]

so if I wanted to test this I type xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.function simulate_npc_loadouts ?

[lost berry]

PROGRESS

we have something to go off of, kinda

[misty mulch]

to be TOTALLY CLEAR: this will not help you at all with what you are doing

[lost berry]

oh fuck

i see the issue

i think

i forgor !

[misty mulch]

Yeah, and it's "you fucked up and forgot to put a ! in front of a section you're modifying"

[lost berry]

I SEE THAT

THANKS FOR TELLING ME

anyways

i think it should work once i slap the ! in there

we hope

[misty mulch]

every day people in support ask me how I do it and I just tell them I read the error messages

[lost berry]

i know, i read them any time i see them

when i dont get them is when im fucked

because that means its time to get the logs and bug the helpers

because idk what the logs mean

[quartz hill]

something like
xrs_rnd_npc_loadout.simulate_npc_loadouts(10, {"stalker"}, nil, {"primary"})

[sonic bolt]

so this will output 10 stalker loadouts of random rank and their primary?

[quartz hill]

their primaries for all ranks

[misty mulch]

10 Loner loadouts of every rank

[sonic bolt]

interesting

is it only the primaries or their whole loadout?

[lost berry]

loading test map... again

[misty mulch]

only primary. Because of the last argument

[sonic bolt]

I see, thanks

[quartz hill]

whole loadout can be done with {"primary", "secondary", "extra"}

you tell me

It's model from tarkov

Irl the difference looks very minor, so if you want some kinda justification , it looks like you could convert it if you knew what you were doing

[main plover]

ye I will just remove this screw tip

[main plover]

Nice and easy

[lost berry]

IT FUCKING WORKS @misty mulch

ok so now im gonna make it a 0.5 again

[misty mulch]

honestly given how many high ranking stalkers you kill, 0.5 seems like way too high a chance

look at the drop chances for the other stuff in death_items.ltx to get an idea

[lost berry]

do i just make it 0.25 for instance?

to make it 25%?

which one would i change... i forgot which was which when i left

i left for like 1 hour and a bit, and forgot which value handles chance

[misty mulch]

every single instance of this

[lost berry]

ok thank you for reminding me

now im gonna credit you in my mods posting post

you made this whole thing possible

[quartz hill]

[lost berry]

you too

dw

anon did like half the work, giving me all the section names

then you did the other half

[misty mulch]

but to reiterate:

• everything under ![item_count] is "how many copies of this item should it spawn", in the format object_id = minimum, maximum
• for each faction_rank section, the number is the probability (expressed as a number between 0 - 1)

[lost berry]

[lost berry]

ok that makes sense

i think i could do DLTX in the future myself

lets hope next time i have an idea, i can make it work with no help

[quartz hill]

might want to get ltxdiff for next time

[lost berry]

no

[lost berry]

manual DLTX or give me death

XD

then i can be smarter

[quartz hill]

i meant to find root files but

[lost berry]

ah ok

or i can just do it manually

[quartz hill]

also please read this
https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/tutorials/addons/dltx.html

[lost berry]

no lol

kidding

i will

[quartz hill]

[quartz hill]

also just to clarify, every line starting with a semicolon is not read by the engine/scripts

[lost berry]

yeah that checks XD

i really need to read that book

[quartz hill]

semicolons are just how comments are implemented for ltx files

[lost berry]

yeah i got that, thanks (i found that out ages ago, but its not like i remember that)

there was a mod i had that had a little explanation on .ltx files

but i dont know where it is or which one

sooo yeh

[quartz hill]

forgor

[sonic bolt]

Does anyone know how to add the upgraded arrow icon to mags?

[quartz hill]

i think you need to inherit from tch_mag_upgr when defining the mag item, not entirely sure though

seems to add an icon layer field to the item ig

[fair canopy]

You need base. Upgrade only adds an extra icon denoting its an upgraded mag but it's not necessary at all

[quartz hill]

that's what he was asking for no?

[fair canopy]

Yeye

[sonic bolt]

Works, nice

Now I just gotta rename the extended mag properly

I see the arrow is tch_mag_alt, so I can choose which icons I want too

[lost berry]

"deserteagal"

sounds like steven seagal if he was a pistol

[sonic bolt]

I was just copying the mag name from the normal deagle

[jagged minnow]

how do i speed up all shotguns reload? is there global config somewhere?

[lost berry]

its animation and gun based

so you would need to speed up animation AND the gun's reload

[jagged minnow]

so to edit 2 lines for each gun

where it is located? could you show me

[summer stream]

omf editor

[jagged minnow]

so i need tro speed up these anims

[lost berry]

bro. i dont know

i literally use a double barrel, i dont have issues with reload times

i reload more than i shoot on average XD

[jagged minnow]

not .anm editor?

[summer stream]

that's for cam editor

[jagged minnow]

is there animation for each shell?

[summer stream]

yes

[jagged minnow]

Oh fck me sideways

[brazen delta]

Hey everyone! 👋

Quick question about weapon mechanics in GAMMA:

Is there any way to disable or tweak the damage reduction that happens when a weapon’s barrel is damaged? I really like the realism, but for my current playthrough I'd prefer to keep weapon damage consistent regardless of condition.

If there's a config setting, script, or file I should be looking at to change this behavior, I’d really appreciate any pointers.

Thanks in advance for any help or guidance! 🙏

[misty mulch]

direct edits to grok_bo.script, the overwrite-winning copy provided by GAMMA Close Quarters Combat

would suggest you make an overwriting copy as your own mod so that your edits don't disappear on updates

ctrl-f barrel, you should be able to find and comment out the entire if loop

or e.g. always set that variable to 1

[brazen delta]

Thanks for the help 🙏

[celest forge]

Way easier to do it in the LTX file

Doing it directly in the omf files is a way more convoluted thing

[jagged minnow]

in this one mod_system_benelli_m1014.ltx?

[brazen delta]

So, in the original script, the damage multiplier related to the weapon’s barrel condition was calculated like this:

barrel_condition_corrected = (130 - (1.12 * barrel_condition)) * (barrel_condition * 1.12) / 100

if barrel_condition_corrected > 1 then
barrel_condition_corrected = 1
end

What I did was replace this entire formula with:

barrel_condition_corrected = 1

From what I understand, this avoids messing with the rest of the damage calculation but effectively disables damage reduction from barrel condition.

Does that sound accurate to you? Or could the original formula have other side effects I’m overlooking?

[misty mulch]

you could. i personally would simply remove the barrel damage coefficient from the damage calculation altogether

but both solutions should work

e.g. lines 495, 869, 873 simply remove * barrel_condition_corrected

which to be clear -

• line 495 covers player damage vs mutants
• line 869 covers AP against humans
• line 873 covers player damage vs humans

[brazen delta]

Ok I see, but dsnt what I did covers all this ?

[misty mulch]

for your method, remember to do this for lines 353-377 (mutant dmg) AND ALSO lines 588 - 612 (dmg to humans)

[brazen delta]

Ok so your's is easier actually, thanks

I'm trying to do something a little more exotic but don't think it's possible in the same file, could be mistaking, but trying to increase dispersion based on barrel condition

[misty mulch]

that'd need a separate script, yeah

i can read lua but can't write it well, so i am prob not the best person to ask

[brazen delta]

Thanks anyway for the already really helpful advices

[patent flume]

more mutants types in ZCP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15vZ10NVROQ

[jagged minnow]

I sped up anims of first and last shell but fail to do so in middle shells

I added multiplier to anm_add_cartridge too

[rough lion]

Any way to edit the properties of "wpn_gauss_quest" ?
I cannot find it

there really should be a fix to crashing when shooting Edilion and Prometheus in the head with the "Item N62" gauss rifle by now

[lost berry]

would it be possible to change where the player spawns in the rostok -> AW transition?

like instead of in the road, where it is now, it could be to the left near the village or something?

[main plover]

It should be possible I had mod that changed that but idk what that was either redone or new levels

[drifting moat]

Check the code of the extra transition mod. (Garbage -> Rostok).
It does it differently than it is done for the "vanilla" TPs, but from the code you could figure out where to look for the other transition point configurations. Some of it (or most I don't remember) is done in Lua.

[analog blade]

[barren spruce]

uhh sir this is a channel for developing mod, uhm not installing them

[summer stream]

[summer stream]

my face when scope is literally the entire gun

[summer stream]

oh also ron

i was paid to do the AM180

what a silly thing

can i use your small calibers framework for it

since i want to make it both 9x18 and 22 lr

[undone spruce]

Sure, thats the intention to make it separate

Im thinking of making the 25acp and 32acp being optional on the mod

As of now i could think of some other 32acp but mostly are also 380

And not many more 25s

[summer stream]

danke

[next zinc]

Ak 50 ?

it's m3 super

ak 50 is being made by frosty rn

frosty on his way to make the 20th eft slop weapon mod

[summer stream]

na

the gun itself is made by me

i just asked him to do scopes

[crimson salmon]

ahh okey

[summer stream]

also

do you want to look at new thing i made

[crimson salmon]

sure

[summer stream]

funny thing that american calls angry bees

[crimson salmon]

oh god

what am i looking at right now

[summer stream]

that is

180 round mag

[sonic bolt]

NATO PPsh equivalent?

[summer stream]

with 1200 rpm

and 22 lr

smg

called AM180

or
"Angry Bees"

or "Swarm of Bees"

[sonic bolt]

Will it use its own proprietary 22LR or will it be rechambered?

[crimson salmon]

i have been working on something pretty cool too

[summer stream]

oh yes

[summer stream]

by default it's 9x18

i will make it 22 lr by default using small caliber framework

[sonic bolt]

Are there any guns that use 22LR 🥹
