FUCK THERES THAT CHAT

No wait thats also for making mods

he was asking as gamma 2 will be made

[slow bolt]

There is literally no chat where this question makes sense

since it is that bad

[barren crown]

didnt grok make a statement about it

or was i hallucinating

#📢announcements message

multiple actually

maybe we should pin it

anyway, back to making mods

how do i seperate helmets and backpacks from custom armors

[cold flame]

@steady apex sorry for the ping but I've tried adding mags from mags redux to the exclusion list of Popup Messages addon but even tho the code still looks good the popup messages for items pickup just stopped working, only thing I did was add the mags in i didn't delete anything from the og file, some help here would be appreciated ty

[graceful lance]

hey guys. does somebody know anyone who could help with modding levels? in my case - modifying UV on levels meshes?

[blissful marsh]

greetings, scripting anomaly as gamma cant warfare, i want to disable use count on items like army kettle for example, so where can i find the line ?

[graceful lance]

level moders pls help

[blissful marsh]

btw i know limited use is for "gameplay" but it turns game in pill eater simulator

ill extend effects as well

oh i think i found the line, will experiment

[slow bolt]

in its config files

but you cant disable use counts fully. If item is usable - it needs to have charges iirc

[slow bolt]

That is just bhs

[cunning nymph]

is there a low ready mod? Something akin Realism for SPT??

[fair canopy]

No

[blissful marsh]

well not pill have ctually 10 uses, as on item icon 🙂

Closest thing you can do is adjust the "Lowered" position of your gun in weapon HUD editor

[topaz raft]

For me, it was the enemy's depression that changed. Did I do something wrong?

[upbeat wedge]

anyone know how to add a firemode to a gun in gamma or change existing firemodes in the ltx

I have an idea to make player homes in a few locations around the map, there would be one in the bunker outside of flea market, an apartment inside Pripyat, and possibly one to two others. The idea would be to either find the code to open the door or get an access keycard or something so it’s not just immediately available. How feasible would this be? I have zero modding experience at this point but have time to learn

[simple scaffold]

You have a modified ui_options so the index is wrong. Make the 8's 10's and try again.

Based on the red text I'm going to blame grok. 🙂

[balmy quiver]

Quick question about priorities in MO2: Shouldn't the mod "G.A.M.M.A. Arti Recipes Overhaul" (priority 385) be placed "higher" than "G.A.M.M.A. Repair Kit Renaming" (priority 600) so that it gets taken into account?

[slow bolt]

Dear god no

realism SPT mod needs to die

[lofty island]

does anyone know how to/any resources that teaches how to replace use animations for specific items? i'm not a big fan of the epipen and fentenyl animations and i'd like to change them into the glucose shot animation with the small injector gun instead or that medkit/stim replacer mod for anomaly:

[lofty island]

curios what you don't like about it. i think its a blast to play.

[slow bolt]

its not realistic. Having to juggle stances isnt either

[lofty island]

I get your point. i was complaining bout that too when i first tried it. but it did grew on me. i think its pretty realistic. my arms would get sore too if I just had a weapon pointed forward all the time.

[queen pine]

@novel ruin If you want to create a custom character portrait, follow this guide: #╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

[novel ruin]

@summer stream its on #╟🔰☢newbies-chat for some reason

[summer stream]

how the fuck

[novel ruin]

no one can post stuff in #╭📖faq other than Falco so oflin just post that stuff into his domain

Literally 1984 @tidal elbow

[summer stream]

pretty cool that oflin made it easier for default user

and the photopea thing

mine has the HD version so the people wont have any trouble

[tidal elbow]

That's not true ahahaha

[ebon haven]

is there mod that lets you make technicans fix ur shit?

[sacred token]

[modest sequoia]

can ANYONE get tracers to show up? i did a clean install yesterday and it does not respect my tracer settings

[sinful wasp]

the FAQ version of portrait is !avatarru, there was no !avatar because that is used for displaying user pfp
i suppose no one cared to make a proper guide for ENG so there just wasn't any around

i wrote the guide as part of my stuff, i tend to just do guides and stuff them in newbies so that 99% of people can view it
After enough questions i just made it into !portrait command

i could pester Falco over this shit but also why bother if i can manage it on my own

[covert dock]

anyone knows how to lower the 0.3 chance to ZERO?

[summer stream]

it took a long time

but mine was made since i was like "ok let's do this since some users are not able to do it by themselves"

i want to make a patch for this mod to replace the epipen animation

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/fdda-new-animations-for-medkits-iwp

where do i start?

[summer stream]

dltx.

the ltx files.

[sonic bolt]

You can probably look at the files and add the EpiPen since the animation is chosen by the LTX files

[summer stream]

but it can cause unwanted problem

[lofty island]

how so?

[summer stream]

i remember trying to do another anim for medkit via ltx

it caused constant busyhands

[lofty island]

oof

[crimson salmon]

[lofty island]

well idk much about working with ltx files. is there like an ltx guide i can read/watch that explains stuff? i wonder if chatgpt can help me

[summer stream]

how convenient

i will port P890 soon

[crimson salmon]

do a p320 that crashes your game upon shooting it

[summer stream]

yea sure

[sonic bolt]

I don't think chatgpt should be used There's a lot of resources here in the pinned sections in regards to modding, and you could also just read through scripts and ltxs to reverse engineer

Guys how to understand what models from what folders the main character takes when putting on a model costume exactly

Here the standard model of the exoskeleton of stalkers, but the main character uses another texture, I want to change to another suit how to do it. That is, to find that folder and those textures to replace

[lofty island]

i have no idea were to find the ltx for the epipen/fentanyl animations anyone know where it is?

[warm wind]

Hello everyone, can anyone help or suggest what I'm doing wrong if they've done something similar?

The task is as follows: I'm rewriting the files npc_loadouts_zombied, death_generic, and death_items to add the ability for zombies to drop all in-game items (trying to make a Last Survival mod for myself).

• In npc_loadouts_zombied, I managed to assign weapons—they drop as they should, everything I specified.
• In death_generic and death_items, I added items (basically all items, including crafting tools, weapon mods like scopes and suppressors), following the correct syntax.
• However, after modifying death_items, the game crashes, referencing the death_manager script. I don’t understand what I did wrong or what exactly needs to be done to properly add a zombie inventory drop list.

And the second question:
I can’t figure out how to increase the chance of clothing dropping from zombies. I tried modifying both death_manager and outfit_drop, but it still doesn’t work. Maybe someone can advise?

I'm attaching the files I edited—perhaps you'll immediately spot the mistake.

[cunning nymph]

Yeah but im just referencing the stances

[wanton copper]

Some items reduce your sleepiness. In what file does this happen exactly?

[runic valve]

anybody know where the quest arrow texture is located?

[barren crown]

How do i seperate helmets and backpacks from custom armors using the ltx files? where would i look?

[lilac idol]

maybe try with helmet_available https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/reference/configs/items/outfits/outfit.html

[unique geode]

How do I change an item's icon? I downloaded a mod that changes the 3D model of the energy drink's animation, but the icon is still the original one. I wanted to change it too to make it the same.

[sonic bolt]

You can make a dltx file that overrides the icon and a dds file with the icon you want

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message You can use this to ensure that the inv_grid values are correct

I've been making some personal icon changes this way

[unique geode]

I really don't know anything about this, is there a guide I can follow?

[sonic bolt]

Uhhhh I don't think so? I just did all this by going through mods I had downloaded and making educated guesses

[sonic bolt]

You can check pins, maybe there's some resource there that can help you

[unique geode]

I think I figured it out, but I'm having trouble with the image resolution. I want to edit the energy drink icon. What resolution should I use?

[warm wind]

How to increase the maximum weight in the inventory of zombied?

[sonic bolt]

In Gamma everything in the inventory UI is calculated by a grid, if you were to use a program like Gimp or Photoshop this grid is 50x50. So if you want to make your own icon, then you'll have to make sure the icon fits inside that specific box in the grid

[slow bolt]

unless you use a separate icon for each item instead of having an atlas

[sonic bolt]

So you can make a large resolution item still fit in that 1x1 grid space?

Or am I misinterpreting the answer

[unique geode]

but then the image quality is shit, that's what I don't understand, how do I make the image good even though it's 50px?

[sonic bolt]

I don't make icons so I don't really know how to preserve the quality, I guess that's just how anomaly formats its icons. But starting off from a large resolution image then downscaling I'd assume it would probably still keep it at a decent quality since you aren't gonna be looking at the item too closely in the UI

I have seen mods that have better/worse icons despite still taking up the same space in the inventory grids

[celest forge]

It's all about making a good render

If your render is bad not even an 8k res one will downscale nicely

[sonic bolt]

JUAAAAAN MAKE AN ICON TUTORIAL

[celest forge]

No

[sonic bolt]

Gatekeeping knowledge smh my head

[celest forge]

I use the same hdri render as most people, I'm just particularly goated at icons

[sonic bolt]

I still dunno how to even make renders in blender 🥹

[blazing musk]

Can anyone pass down some knowledge onto me? I'm trying to change the amount of powder needed for .338 and i've been slamming my forehead against the wall. I've got an .ltx file with the edited values and the game picks up the bullet and casing requirements, but not the powder

[sonic bolt]

the powder requirements might be being edited by another file

maybe you could make a dltx like mod_system_zzz_ammocraft so it can overwrite that other change

[blazing musk]

Your wisdom has ended my pain
Dunno how but fuck it it works and that's the important part

[sonic bolt]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message You can check this out if you wanna know more

[frail scaffold]

Can someone enlighten me on how this game handles sound. I don't think there's any need to be stealthy whatsoever, because you can reload guns and jump behind enemies, and they don't react at all. I presume this can't be solved by modding otherwise it would've already been done?

[warm wind]

Hi, some body can help how to increase the maximum weight in the inventory of zombied?

[novel ruin]

how npc react depends on the sound file's ogg comment and the max AI distance, npc can be more sensitive with sound but the drawback is that they become sensitive to things not shouldnt be a problem like anomaly sound i.e Redone Combat AI

the latter, im not entirely sure but oflin said so so I assume that the case

[frail scaffold]

Well, if I walk up to an enemy AI solider that is looking away from me, I can jump behind him, walk left and right, reload my guns, etc and he does not react at all.

The only time the AI will react is if you get very close, to the point where you're touching him

So it seems that sound is probably only used for gun sounds and the ai reacting

Which is a bit of a shame because it means that being stealthy doesn't really matter at all, because the ai do not react to physical sounds

[wide bobcat]

Anyone know how to solve this glossy look on a modded weapon?

[summer stream]

wrong texture

it's supposed to be normal but something went wrong on uv side

you can use view model as world model
@wide bobcat

just assign it to the right vortexs

[wide bobcat]

Gotcha, the viewmodel looks fine its just the world model. Lemme share the pathing if something is wrong that I'm not experienced enough to notice

[wide bobcat]

So how could I fix this? In blender or another 3d software?

[summer stream]

blender

[wide bobcat]

I'm not too experienced on that front. Do you think I should just give up because this doesn't really seem worth the effort

[summer stream]

..depends

[celest forge]

hud model as world model

[summer stream]

still better than nothin

Hello,
I have a trouble "fixing" thermal scopes when using NVG. It just flashing super bright even when i disable Beef NVG as its file setting it is all over the place, but there is still some shaders or overlay present.

What should i do? Please 🙏

[signal bobcat]

Ayo I know this chat is for MAKING mods lol, but does anyone know if there are similar mods to Hip control hip fire aim adjuster/ IScontrol enabler for FNV but for gamma lol, there's a couple guns that sit too close to the screen and a couple guns I don't like where/how the gun is pointed for hip fire aiming and wanted to adjust them

[barren crown]

no helmet/backpack_available in the ltx file

Unless, you mean something else

[lilac idol]

if the item is using another as an inheritance it might not have some of the parameters

so try adding it and it might work

[barren crown]

Ok wait..

So, I just realised

when i was testing a couple days ago

You can equip helmet and backpack, just the overlay for the helmet is still there even without one

I just need to know how to disable the overlay

and i can get to balancing the stats

Draggable hud editor in moddb

[covert dock]

anyone knows? Tried look into 3DSS for Gamma but i dont think it is there... Can someone help?

[native tapir]

What gun, scope, and nvg are you using

[covert dock]

well it should happen with any NVG. Its tier 3 nvg, and its Russia dovetail thermal. It seems that it is some kind of shader or something with 3DSS.

[native tapir]

Are you on gamma .94?

[covert dock]

@native tapir JokerBurger well i hope so. All is updated.

[native tapir]

I have no idea then, 0.93 is what I'm on so I cant troubleshoot for you, I believe someone else had a similar problem maybe 20 or so days ago...maybe look through old posts using search function, that's all I can really say sadly

[rocky basin]

New update fix ?

[covert dock]

i dont understand. When i tried Gamma last time ~December 2024 all i had to do was to disable Beef nvg. I lost animation and got the old "bad" vanilla nvg. (without any scope distortion)

[undone spruce]

major modeling and uv done, now some small screw and plate details and then sub painter

[sonic bolt]

whenever I make a texture edit, do I need bump and thm files to make sure it works properly? I've only really been doing minor changes to stalker textures like here

[celest forge]

Wdym like do you need to edit all textures or if you can load just the base texture

[sonic bolt]

I was just wondering if its fine for me to just use the base texture and not worry about the thm and bump files

[native grove]

Anyone know where the changes to the mp5 mag size are? In the ltx file from mo2 it still says the mag size is 30 but I'm trying to change it BACK to 30 rounds from the current 40 it holds

[sonic bolt]

This change is only for the MP5SD no? You can probably make a DLTX that replaces the ammo_elapsed and ammo_mag_size with just 30

[native grove]

oh, you might be right, it's the one I'm using so I just assumed it was all mp5s. And thank you i'll look into how to do that 👍

[sonic bolt]

as for flashlight, i don't remember. look into engine sources (xrgame/torch.cpp).

Hi! I’m currently working on a new French retranslation of GAMMA. During the installation of my mod, I’d like to offer users a choice between two different ui_st_loadscreen.xml files (the loading screen texts): either the original GAMMA version or the one from “222 Tales from Zone.”
Is there a tutorial on how to create an installer (a... FOMOD?) with options (like “289- Grass Tweaks,” for example) for MO2? Thanks!

[cunning axle]

is there a mod that adds paranormal sighting atmosphere like in the Metro game series? not some cheap jump scares like chimeras tho, but sometime just some shadow casting on the wall in some places like underground complex or Yantar or anywhere else when you shine flash light onto it or hearing things like that

[slow bolt]

Not the place to ask for mods

[cunning axle]

my apologies

[celest forge]

People really expect too much from this engine huh

[summer stream]

yea

i was surprised that pbr is possible on anomaly engine

[undone spruce]

it is?

[summer stream]

yes it is

LVunter made it

[balmy quiver]

While translating into French, I noticed this in the original GAMMA ui_st_loadscreen.xml (the messages displayed during loading). Half of the text IDs are similar, with only minor differences (an extra space, an extra punctuation mark, etc.). Is that normal?

[opal bison]

genuine question — had anybody here ported animations from stalker into anywhere else? and I mean actually having the animation tracks in the extracted model? anything like .fbx/.gltf goes, I'm just genuinely curious, and there seems no better channel for it than this

sorry if it's off-topic though, yet I'd still love to receive an answer to my question

[summer stream]

answer :
yes, from tarkov, stalker 2 and even cod

a lot of stuff is easy to port, if you know how to

[slow bolt]

From stalker, not to

[summer stream]

same methods

literally the same

you can use the same thing that you used to port over to stalker

to port on other games

and with that it's less complicated

[edgy atlas]

G3 port from Sandstorm still working on it

[opal bison]

any details on it? like, what software you've used? not really asking for a step by step guide, just curious as how I could get shit out of the omf/ogf files and into fbx. I tried the blender x-ray tools but they've been giving me mixed results and none that would work in my case; maybe im just stupid in this regard but im always ready to learn

[summer stream]

im using blender

there is Autodesk Maya, more complicated but

it gives you way more power over it

so i would recommend maya for it

buuut you need tuts for that

plus parenting n stuff

child of..that's for blender i think

[opal bison]

interesting...

ill try my luck with Maya then, thank you

[covert dock]

can anyone help me with thermal + nvg?

[fair canopy]

what

[slow bolt]

Almost everyone uses blender

No need for Maya

[undone spruce]

tried deleteing shader cache?

[covert dock]

Should i delete all in chache?

[undone spruce]

just select the delete shader cache box in the anomaly launcher and start the game and see if it fixes it

Beef NVG also has a option that blurs a scope when you aim with nv on, dunno if any other nv mods also employs it

[balmy quiver]

Hi! I am busy with the translation (into French). I have a problem: I can't find the ID corresponding to the text (original English version) of the Barman in Rostok. In the Spanish and Portuguese patches, the text is found at <string id="bar_visitors_barman_stalker_trader_start_dialog_11"> in the "st_dialogs_bar.xml" file. But in the English (and Russian) version, this ID and xml cannot be found anywhere (and his not on 287- G.A.M.M.A. Massive Text Overhaul Project - SageDaHerb and Dr.Pr1nkos). He is the only NPC causing a problem. Does anyone know where it is?
I also searched for . a snippet of the phrase (my little oasis in the slice), but the file remains nowhere to be found. Do I need to "decompile" Anomaly?
Thanks

[slow bolt]

Decompile

a lot of text won't be in the files

also fairly sure there is french translation already

[summer stream]

there is

[balmy quiver]

Yes, but I'm retranslating everything because the previous translator abandoned the project.

[balmy quiver]

Is there a tutorial for decompiling? Or, is there a decompiled version of 1.5.3?

[summer stream]

there is tools within anomaly to decompile it

[covert dock]

now the whole game is completely blurred and dark 😩

[undone spruce]

what you mean, thatd would mean that your game fucked in some way

[covert dock]

it was all good before i set delete chache and started the game

[undone spruce]

that would mean that the shaders of your game is fucking it up

deleting cache would "reset" in a sense the shaders for what's actually installed

therefore there's some mod that has conflicting shaders with smth else or cant find the right shader

tbh i think deactivating beef nvg may not be good

[barren spruce]

shut up

clueless

never delete shader cache via launcher

always do it manually

[barren spruce]

!shader

[queen pine]

@covert dock To clean your "Shader Cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[covert dock]

now i get shader compilation failed

[barren spruce]

restart

and do it again

[covert dock]

failed again...

[undone spruce]

wasnt aware of that, doing though launcher for me always succesfully nuked the shader folder

[barren spruce]

i would normally ask you what did you install but this isnt a support channel

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/928715640968212582

[undone spruce]

fuck i gotta go study

[lost magnet]

Would it be possible to port some sounds over from insurgency sandstorm into gamma? Specifically cracks, ricochets, impacts, etc? insurgency sandstorm has some absolutely amazing sound design and I’d love to see it in gamma

the gunshots and such are pretty solid already, but i feel like it would be a lot more intense with insurgencys ricochet’s and impacts specifically

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/bullet-cracks-and-impacts-improved i suppose this fits the bill

I would LOVE if someone could make like a randomize gun option on the starting options, like it costs 500 and you could get unlucky and start with a berreta or a fort. On the flip side you could get lucky and start with an mp5 or a moisin, or normal like a TOZ or the pp 19/tommy. Idk I feel like im always choosing the ppsh or the pp19 on every faction

obviously exclude good rifles or Master tier weapons

[verbal siren]

Guys, this isn't a wishing well.

[celest forge]

Do you think they can understand what the channel is about?

It's only on the channel's name after all

[balmy quiver]

Does anyone know where the IDs of the texts that appear when the mission starts are located?
Example : Tukarev Controller hand Experiment

I searched in GAMMA and in Anomaly unpacked, but I didn't find anything. Thanks.

(is not on st_quests_jupiter.xml)

[novel ruin]

it is

    <string id="drx_sl_jup_b6_scientist_tech_task_1_name">
        <text>Tukarev %s Experiment</text>
    </string>

the %s will be replaced with the name of the object through script, in this case: Controller hand

[balmy quiver]

Thaaanks ^^

[viscid kayak]

obviously don't post in the wrong channels but I did whip something similiar up, just gives you a random pistol on new games
feel free to modify it to suit your stuff

[misty mulch]

you can just make an XML file with the correct string ID in your french translation anyway. you don't need to overwrite the base file for such an overwrite to work - see my XML overwrite tutorial https://github.com/veerserif/gamma-dashboard/blob/main/xml_overwrites.md (edit: though this method might not work for full language translations, idfk how translations work)

Anyway it's st_dialogs_bar.xml, string ID barkeep_100rads_1

[misty mulch]

ESPECIALLY for text strings, you MUST unpack the basegame files. Do not rely on the files present in GAMMA, definitely do not rely on e.g. other text overwriting mods or older translation mods

[warped elm]

Question for the experts, given that I want to change the Bullet Hit Power factor (Now replaced by Groks Ballistics mod), what parameter do I have to change and in what LTX file?

[main plover]

Any way to hide inventory UI? Or should I just make transparent one ?

[misty mulch]

You can't. You would have to direct edit the grok_bo.script (from GAMMA Close Quarters Combat) and change one of ~12 variables that factor into outgoing bullet damage. It is NOT an LTX edit. I suggest you simply don't fuck with this setting unless you are confident you know what you are doing - or at least, keep a backup so you can revert your changes.

[warped elm]

Thanks @misty mulch

[thick mountain]

What coding language is used for stalker modding?

C? C++?

[balmy quiver]

Thanks for info 😉
At first, I was translating the priority mods to translate the "Overhaul" mods first. But I noticed that the Overhauls were also behind on updates. Especially since there are additional or updated IDs between vanilla 1.5.2 and 1.5.3. (For example, see the IDs between “lottery_ds_aslan_mlr_19” and “lottery_ds_aslan_mlr_44” in st_dialogs_deadcity.xml). So, I decompiled everything and compared each ID from every version of each xml file. I choose the best version. If a version adds IDs, I merge the two files, separating the IDs with headers that indicate the mod version or dates. I keep track of EVERYTHING, step by step. I have tons of mini Python scripts to compare the IDs, count them, list them, compare the IDs across different files with the same name, etc. I’ve been working on this for two weeks now. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1k03DJrGfnbO1Nwx3zfvAcSnSAYWiVFIXreIEFsvRwic/edit?usp=sharing

[misty mulch]

Engine is in C++ iirc

[thick mountain]

Thanks, veerserif

[sonic bolt]

Might as well ask again, but what should I do to fix this? Several other models in game for me have this issue and it's getting on my nerves

[slow bolt]

Holy that is ugly

[stray trail]

Does anyone know if there is a MAS patch or 3dss Patch for this in the works ?
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/m4s-re-imagined

[slow bolt]

ask the author

not the place to wish for mods

[stray trail]

I was asking around because the author said someone else might've been making it and I was gonna just go ahead and make the patch myself but I don't want to do it if someone else is making a patch already.

because I'm lazy

[ember condor]

If you added cars to the GAMMA, make them like this. With physics like in racing and detailed like in this mod. (There are a lot of different cars there.)
BMW, just check out the physics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcRFz_pA2_M
And here, check out the detail of the UAZ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlM3VTqimB4

[fair canopy]

yeah, make them just like this. shrimple

[celest forge]

Mods really oughta do something about this channel

It really became a wishing well

And borderline aggressive demands from idiots

[ember condor]

Yes, I think most GAMMA players haven't even seen other good mods.

[novel ruin]

[novel ruin]

You can delay or even prevent it from open like fdda did

See fdda redone backpack script

[fair canopy]

why would i ever bother buying a dedicated racing game when i can just mod stalker to do it?

[ember condor]

There is a lot of rusty junk and all kinds of armored personnel carriers. But the physics are great. In the 2007 version of Stalker, the vehicles were cut out, and the gamma is the same as in 2007. Probably the Anomaly engine can't compete with the Lost Alpha engine, which has good car physics.

I don't really think that Gamma needs cars, but in their current state, they are completely useless. They stand out too much (the old ones from 2007).

[fair canopy]

so make a mod to fix them?

[celest forge]

Then mod better ones in

[ember condor]

Good luck with that. I deleted the video because the guys from Gamma don't play other mods.

[fair canopy]

good luck with what? you're the one that wants it

i couldnt give half a shit about the cars in anomaly

[celest forge]

This is the mod MAKING discussion channel

Not the make a wish stalker foundation

[ember condor]

Good luck doing it, you wrote about it.

[fair canopy]

bro what are you talking about

[ember condor]

There used to be a feedback thread, and I think the reason it's gone is because there's no suitable chat room here.

[novel ruin]

Here is an actual modder who know things and make stuff and looking for feedback

[balmy quiver]

To check my translations, I created a script that scans XML files and generates an audio file of the content inside the <text> tags using text-to-speech. The audio file is named after its ID.
For example:
st_dialogs/about_quests_dialog_bandit_0.ogg
st_dialogs/about_quests_dialog_bandit_1.ogg
st_dialogs/about_quests_dialog_bandit_2.ogg

The goal is to have a quick way to verify the text for my translations. Reading on screen is killing my eyes.
And then… I wondered… Would it be possible to create a mod/script that would play an audio file based on the activated ID? By naming the file according to the ID…
That way, we could actually dub the game, a bit like in Skyrim?

function play_dialogue_audio(id)
local snd_path = "voices_fr\" .. id .. ".wav"
if file_exists(snd_path) then
play_sound(snd_path)

I don't know anything about it. 😉

[novel ruin]

pretty sure you can disable base game hud?

[novel ruin]

!hud

[queen pine]

@main plover
Can't see the HUD anymore (ammo counter, PSY bar and mini-map are missing)?

• Press Numpad Enter if you can't see it at all.
• If you have a TKL keyboard without Numpad - go to Settings > Video > UI/HUD, turn on HUD: show
• Or press H if you can see something but not everything.

Only the mini-map is missing?

• Press /

Missing health system (BHS) interface?

• Press H

Can't see weapons or devices when you equip them?

• Go to Settings > Visual > UI/HUD, turn on Show Weapon

[main plover]

It doesn't hide inventory unfortunately

I didn't test H shortcut but I am pretty sure it's only for BHS

Maybe dart will be able to just move it outside screen 😅

[novel ruin]

ok i was wrong, fdda redone dont touch inv ui, but if you like, i can try to make a simple script for that

[main plover]

I would be very happy with a script

how would one go about re-enabling the reactor PSU to recharge while standing still?
It was removed a while back, but how was it implemented before?

[balmy quiver]

I'll put them here for you. Some modders ask me to send them to their GitHub, others by PM on ModDB, others on their personal Discord... I don't have the time. 😅

[summer stream]

ask burn about it

[undone spruce]

i think i got a good high contrast photo for making the mask

[soft badge]

Thank you! I won't be releasing any new versions for a while yet, and not all at once--but I'll get these into their respective addons once each of their next updates are ready.

[balmy quiver]

Thank you for all your mods! The patches will be in a big French patch that will be released soon (it was time to put some order in that). I will send you your xml each time you make an update. 😉

[verbal siren]

Do you mean the shiny parts on the mask? I've seen something similar on a different model, and realized that some of the bump textures were missing. THM Editor will tell you the name of the bump texture assigned to each diffuse texture. Then you have to look for them. Maybe they have been moved to a different folder. Or maybe the modder was lazy so busy that he forgot to add them.

[summer stream]

the mask

has wrong uv

[sonic bolt]

Where do you check the bumps? I assume this is ogf editor?

[verbal siren]

THM Editor

[sonic bolt]

This is what I've found so far

[verbal siren]

Look for the mask texture

[sonic bolt]

This is also an issue for this model as well

But I'll look for it too

[verbal siren]

I don't see anything wrong with the torso on that screenshot

[sonic bolt]

this model's got the issue too

but I'll get back to the original

I didn't have much issue with the gas mask at first but when I saw it on a Nosorog model I kitbashed together I started to get annoyed

[west adder]

which xray sdk should I use for modding gamma/anomaly? it seems there are multiple ones floating around.

[slow bolt]

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

[west adder]

oh, I see, https://igigog.github.io/anomaly-modding-book/modding-tools/index.html#sdks

[west adder]

theres a guide that says to add certain patches, ie coc

https://docs.google.com/document/d/14ADMhkeqFmL29NTPcGZ8MzavDZoyJe4UXDaK_T1gG68/edit?tab=t.0

[stoic sequoia]

Is there any alternative function like transfer_item for server objects (for transfering items between 2 offline npcs)

[signal bobcat]

So, if I wanted to edit the damage of a couple weapons, I'd need to go to anomaly, tools, unpack regular not unpack all, config, items, weapons, X weapon, open the item file, edit the hit impulse value, create folder that mirrors the file directly from unpacked regular, then compress with 7zip and install manually through MO2 right?

[celest forge]

If you want to edit the damage of vanilla Anomaly guns, sure

Almost none of which drop in GAMMA

[regal bolt]

Does anyone know anything about Arti's ammo maker? I want to create a mod that converts blue gunpowder into green/red gunpowder, and so on with the three types of gunpowder.

[balmy quiver]

@soft badge There was a tiny error in the file I sent you (invalid xml). It's fixed. 😅

[simple scaffold]

no, server objects don't have inventories.

you can force them online, transfer the items then allow them to go back offline. this has risks, the AI, and most mods, don't expect NPCs on other maps to suddenly come online, it might break things.

[simple scaffold]

i've been modding anomaly for 5 years and have never needed the SDK.

[west adder]

what do you do then?

[simple scaffold]

SDK is only for special xray only file formats.

scripts are text files, items, npc, mutans, quests, and much more are defined in ltx witch are also text files, translation strings, ui layouts, parts of the NPC definition and a sytem related to textures, are all xml files which are another fancy text file. models can be manipulated with a blender plugin. textures are just dds files and can be edited with paint.net (and app not a url)

https://www.moddb.com/members/ravenascendant/addons/

43 mods including MCM and mags redux made with Notepad++ and paint.net (or gimp if i was feeling fancy)

sdk not needed for any of them. sdk is needed to read and edit level data, extract the base game particles (altho new ones can be added as text files) and maybe one or two two other things that aren't important enough for me to rember.

[west adder]

I see

[simple scaffold]

i would bet that 99% of the mods in gamma didn't need the sdk to make. i know that the first several versions of gamma it was 100% since we didn't have an sdk that even half worked with anomaly then.

[west adder]

yeah

I just wanna add some weapon models...

[soft badge]

I have only ever needed the SDK in order to add the right metadata to new sounds.

And even that probably has other tools that can do the same task.

[west adder]

it would be nice to have a template mod that just adds a weapon that I could change

[undone spruce]

you could look into a similar weapon that youd like
a revolver, a rifle, a pistol, a shotgun

look at other people mods and check the anomaly modding guide that'd be enough to go through

texture done, now the good part

[tardy flicker]

Can I set the condition of an npc weapon through their character_desc.xml or does it need to be done through a script function?

[wooden fog]

Is there a way to turn off or remove this icon?

[tardy flicker]

Should be able to remove it by removing the <!-- Needs: sleep --> section from configs\ui\textures_descr\ui_actor_hint_wnd.xml
If nothing else. Keep a backup

[quartz hill]

use this instead of the version in gamma

moon clips

[safe nimbus]

What is the compression method used for icons?

[stoic sequoia]

Oh i mean i can get a table of their items by using a function called alife:()get_children(npc) and i can create the items in the other npc's inventory by using alife_create_item() but i don't know if i can move the same item or not

I'm trying to make a mod that simulates some sort of offline looting and it's somehow working out i just want to do it so fetch quest item don't fail the quest when the owner dies and you just have to fetch it from someone else and i want to do something about items that have limited uses becuase the function to get the remaining uses really doesn't work on server items

[simple scaffold]

Probably not. Off line isn't meant to do anything with items.

Clone weapon can be used to copy a weapon from one NPC to another with all the guns state data. But nothing similar exists for armor or other items.

[stoic sequoia]

Well weopons are the only thing i don't need to be cloned they spawn on full condition on the npc but the moment i kill the npc the condition is down to normal drops

Oh well i guess just using alife_create_item then

Thanks for helping

[celest forge]

Some people do uncompressed

I personally do BC3

[safe nimbus]

G.A.M.M.A. crashed when I compressed my new icons to BC3 for some reason..

Uncompressed it is then.

[golden magnet]

any idea how this is calculated

radiation_immunity = -0.0023

both are stat value for the volat emerald(af_monolith) in the mod_system_zzzzzzz_grok_artifacts.ltx

made the radiation_protection to positive and ended up getting a value of 4016% radiation res in game

[lament garnet]

using LTXDiff it seems like all normal trade_ files are roots? I will just edit the trade_presets file for my self since I wont be making a mod for others anyway.

[lament garnet]

do you know if this is the correct syntax for LTXDiff:
& ".\LTXDiff" findroot "C:\Anomaly\tools_unpacked" "C:\GAMMA\mods\Custom Settings\gamedata" "configs\items\trade\presets\trade_presets.ltx"
or am I doing this wrong? anyways thanks for trying to help me atleast.

[slow bolt]

Oh, is Actor Damage Balancer still blocking that callback? It was reported as an issue 2 years ago at this point

TLDR is ADB catches the callback, does it's thing and cancels it. Fucking over every mod that needs it

All you have to do is overwrite ADB to not cancel it or manually pass it on with the data in it

[safe nimbus]

Well, considering it's an upscale of GAMMA's original icons.

[patent remnant]

does anyone know what causes this texture(i think) issue?

heres a rough comparison of what its supposed to look like but it changes depending on what direction im looking at it from cuz of something lighting related i assume

[misty mulch]

trade files have multiple roots, you have to make a DLTX for every root file

[misty mulch]

and that is why when all I wanted to do for my Tougher Gun Repair mod was "make a new trade_preset section with two lines", I had to create 27 DLTX files https://github.com/veerserif/Tougher-Gun-Repair-GAMMA/tree/main/gamedata/configs/items/trade

[candid quail]

Are there any decent examples that add buttons to inventory ui? I'd like to learn how to do this.
Or perhaps there are some available helper functions to ease the pain.

[lethal pelican]

if you wanted to mod in a new ammo type, how would you mark it as hollow point for the purposes of the GAMMA hardcoded damage bonus from HP ammo to mutants? or is there no need to do so?

[hidden jackal]

Isn't HP ammo is just high damage and low AP?

[lethal pelican]

I don't know, I've seen a lot of mentions to a hardcoded damage bonus for HP bullets, in GAMMA

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message here for example

[verbal siren]

Just keep the center of the reticle in the center of the texture (so if the texture is 1024x1024, keep the center at 512x512). Works for most of them, except ACOG I think.

[lost berry]

does your ARC mod affect zf4 in any way?

just wondering

[verbal siren]

No, it already looked pretty authentic, so I didn't touch it.

[lost berry]

shit

that just makes me more confused

im gonna show you my issue rq

this is a problem im having

[verbal siren]

It's a 2D scope

[lost berry]

with the sharps rifle in particular, juan and athi verified its not their mods, its something i got

yes i see

i dont want that

sharps has a 3DSS patch

[verbal siren]

Link?

[lost berry]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_AMbGEbJDT8zioOTtNcEY62SmyMEilqI?usp=share_link

thats juan's drive

all his guns are in there

[verbal siren]

Did Juan make the 3DSS patch?

It's from May - he didn't start making 3DSS yet.

Ah, there is a patch inside

Did you copy and replace the original files?

[lost berry]

sir. it worked for months

i installed something

then it dont

so i did install correctly, i just then installed something it didnt like

[verbal siren]

Install the patch again?

[lost berry]

https://tenor.com/view/why-didnt-i-think-of-that-gif-27711265

as if bro

i did that yesterday, had no effect

i even reinstalled the mod just to ensure that

i moved it to highest prio, even though it shouldnt have any effect, and sure enough, nothing changed

[novel ruin]

time to put more zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[verbal siren]

MO2 search for this file: wpn_sharps_j_zf4_hud.ogf

[lost berry]

thing is, it literally doesnt have a z stack

[verbal siren]

Does it come from the proper mod?

[lost berry]

[lost berry]

one min, gotta open mo2

literally just got up

like 20 min ago

it comes from sharps

its the only result

like so

[verbal siren]

WTF wait

That's not how you install the patch

[lost berry]

it worked tho

[verbal siren]

[lost berry]

then what was i meant to do dickhead

[verbal siren]

Move the 3dss gamedata folder to the main mod folder

[lost berry]

just move the whole folder?

Son, I'm dissappoint

Copy and replace the main files

I finished the texture, now it doesn't glow. As for your work, I suggest adding a translucent fabric texture

something like that

[main plover]

Not needed my bump maps looks fine

The army one was botched bump wise

[thick mountain]

I guess this place feels right for this question
If I were to make a small mod pack and, let’s say, I get something like BaS
How do I make it so certain guns just don’t drop? BaS has a problem with repeating gun variants n stuff

[slow bolt]

not a problem

[sonic bolt]

Probably through the NPC loadouts? Some can be debug only

[slow bolt]

different variants of the guns for different factions and stuff

[thick mountain]

I’d much rather have no 6 same but slightly different guns

[thick mountain]

So, what do I do exactly to make it save across different save files?

[sonic bolt]

You can probably comment out the guns you don't want to drop inside the NPC loadouts file

[thick mountain]

I see, I see

[sonic bolt]

The Bas22 in mod posting has an old gun remover for the old Kiparis and it does just that

[thick mountain]

How will I be able to share the mod pack with those changes btw?

I am very new to all this

[sonic bolt]

Here's what it looks like

I assume there are other ways to do it but this is one of them

[bronze apex]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message this

You mean uploading a mod to modposting or something similar? Just zip up your mod folder and post it there. Make sure the file structure is correct and you should be good

Does anyone know where this icon is?

Thanks, I wasn't sure if it was part of bas or not

[main plover]

Altought it's propably built from base toz 34 and iconlayer of scope but I might be wrong

Nope it's from Gamma weapon pack

[modest sequoia]

this is obscure but a year or so ago i found a console setting that made blood pools much darker. does that ring a bell? i can't find which mod had the info in comments anymore and cant find it :/

[hoary marsh]

i try with ak74 pcm and works fine i put viet camo tiger amazing, but with tactical m4 dont, ill found the wpn_m4_tac and change it but when i MO2 install dont load the camo in m4. but the ak74 load very well. ill found the m4 archive in burns optimed world Models maybe thats not the archive? i edit the ak74 and m4 archive in photoshop with the dds adon.

[verbal siren]

The mod was probably Painter of the Zone. But I think now you can go to MCM SSS and find the settings there.

[tropic horizon]

anyone know what folder rpg 7 warhead trader pricer is?

file?

i dont have a blood option under SSS settings :/

[sonic bolt]

How exactly does weapon cover tilt work? Is it easy to change by myself?

[fair inlet]

do you mean weapon positions or?

[sonic bolt]

The G36 from FWP has a bit of an extreme tilt, booting up the game to get a ss

[modest sequoia]

that's the setting... thanks boss!

[slow bolt]

It's a universal code, usually working quite perfect

[fair inlet]

it's easy then
edit some existing weapon_cover_tilt_positions file or copy it and make your own

[sonic bolt]

Thank god, I was worried it would be a bit harder.

[slow bolt]

I don't see a problem here

you are flush against the wall

[sonic bolt]

The one of the left seems more sensible though?

[slow bolt]

It's based on the weapon's position set by the creator

All it does is tilt it up and a bit forward

So you have to make a reposition in the first place

[sonic bolt]

So draggable hud editor is also in play?

[slow bolt]

..no?

what do you mean in play?

[wary scroll]

Hey, wanted to ask about detail mapping
Can anyone explain it a little please?
World texture uses detail from detail folder with high scale to add something like more grain and noise over a low Res texture to hide the low quality

So if anyone can explain how it works, please let me know
And how can I lower the noise value, like by 50%

[sonic bolt]

I have to consider the weapon positions is what I meant

So I can't just change the weapon tilt settings

[slow bolt]

WCT uses what weapon's reposition has already set, just tilting it

[sonic bolt]

I figured that's what you meant

[slow bolt]

So fix it at the core. Show how it looks in the hands not tilted

[sonic bolt]

Looks fine here I suppose

[slow bolt]

Ah, it's clear why. you see it from way back

cause of the massive scope

[sonic bolt]

That makes sense

[fair canopy]

It may also be because of the fire point Config

[slow bolt]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/969924176842473482/1207409642808934461/S.T.A.L.K.E.R._-Anomaly-2024-02-.gif

My favorite use of WCT

[sonic bolt]

Does the fire point just change where the bullets come from on the gun?

[fair canopy]

it also controls where WCT detects where the barrel of the gun is

[white warren]

What param changes the muzzle flash then bc I thought that was fire point

My muzzle flash is 2 ft away from my gun lmao

[celest forge]

It's firepoint but in the hud section

Not the main section, that's for when NPCs are holding the gun

[white warren]

Adjusted it with hud editor and it didn’t do shit

I’m the problem

[wide bobcat]

Does anyone know what causes the Exo-Outfit (Loner) specifically to have such a random third person model? I can't even change it because something just outright denies it. All other outfits are fine, but that lone one refuses to respond.

[sonic bolt]

You might need to add more z's to the file you're using to change the model. I'm doing a model change mod myself and it's mod_system_zzz_ArmorModelSwap

[wide bobcat]

gotcha. I've been wanting to forcefully rewrite things to be more accurate as the one shown in GAMMA currently has no frame whatsoever.

[sonic bolt]

I was annoyed by that too main reason why I'm doing a pretty intensive model swap mod

[wide bobcat]

I found an old addon and the potential cause myself. Checking both out to see if it works

[lapis vortex]

i haven't touched blender in years and even then i was noodling around as a kid

[summer stream]

check if there is a setting

that shows only installed

nah i have all showing

i install it, blender says it's installed, but doesn't show up in my addons list

[undone spruce]

try searching xray on addon window

[lapis vortex]

doesn't show up there either

you sure the enable only is not selected?

try downloading a older version of the plugin

like a version before

you could start at the mar 10 one

[lapis vortex]

that worked

thanks

[summer stream]

wait wait wait

@lapis vortex how did you download it previously
via the link that screw gave to you?

like download zip via raw files?

i downloaded the one from pins

code > download zip

that's the core problem

you got it via raw files

not releases

thank god that you figured it out

yeah

try downloading the newest release then

how is that placement for the acog?

@faint sable you have that all 3DSS scopes file for download?

like completely change

and also, since its gonna be a model that doesnt exist for stalker yet, how do i make a model compatible for stalker

this is kinda too small

use rails to scale

how do I remove guns from the game?
and what script do I edit to change new game loadouts?

[sonic bolt]

Search this on the Data file explorer

thx
do you know how I can remove guns from npc loadouts as well?

i wanna remove certain guns with anims that I don't like

[sonic bolt]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message This is how one mod I saw does it

[misty mulch]

"remove guns from the game" generally means "stop guns from appearing in all common sources". this usually means

• making sure traders don't sell them (trader profile DLTX)
• making sure it's not in npc loadouts (npc loadout config edits/DLTX)
• making sure it's not in stash rewards (DLTX grok_treasure_manager.ltx)
• making sure it's not in new game start (change starting loadout ltx/dltx it)

[misty mulch]

as for "which configs" - explore the starting loadout and npc loadouts mod. they do what they say

and will show you what filenames to search for

you ALWAYS want to use the file search to make sure you are finding the conflict-winning file

since of course if you edit a file that is just going to be overwritten, your changes will not happen in the game

[regal bolt]

should i edit these files?

[sonic bolt]

Is this the right way to edit them out of npc loadouts?

[regal bolt]

what does 0:0 mean btw?

[misty mulch]

i would always encourage you to make your own DLTX override mod to do something like this, i have a pinned tutorial on how to do so

[regal bolt]

i know how to don't worry
that's my plan

but I was wondering if these are the files that I should edit and overwrite

[misty mulch]

your DLTX syntax is correct and your filename is correct, but without seeing your actual file structure, you only pass 2/3 checks

[misty mulch]

yes

[misty mulch]

all of them have the same root file npc_loadouts so you can use a single DLTX file to cover them all

[regal bolt]

alright, thanks

[misty mulch]

read the comments at the top of npc_loadouts.ltx to understand

[regal bolt]

so basically just create something like mod_system_zzzzzzzz_npc_loadouts.ltx and use that?

[sonic bolt]

Just making sure, I ought to give your tutorial a once-over again

[misty mulch]

do not fucking stack zs unless you HAVE to.

[regal bolt]

ik XD

im just saying to ensure they overwrite other mods

[misty mulch]

ok 3/3 that is the correct filepath

[sonic bolt]

half the time adding Z's are necessary 🤣

[regal bolt]

yeah it really is

[misty mulch]

why? there is no need to unless you KNOW you have to.

[regal bolt]

that's what he's saying

you usually have to

[misty mulch]

never do this shit preventatively in a mod you are using for yourself.

[regal bolt]

i know

[misty mulch]

ONLY do it if you find out that you HAVE to. again.

[regal bolt]

i know

got it

wait so is this editing the mod_system file?

[misty mulch]

depending on the gun(s) you are removing, it is actually highly unlikely that you need to z-stack

[sonic bolt]

Not my mod btw, just using it for reference

[misty mulch]

brother no

[regal bolt]

or is npc_loadouts a different file?

sry for the confusion btw

just wanna confirm

[misty mulch]

npc_loadouts is the root for all npc_loadouts_whatever.ltx files
system is NOT its root so it has fuck all to do with any config that starts mod_system

please read my guide again to get the terminology right otherwise we're just going to confuse each other

[regal bolt]

got it

and which folder will it go in?

is it just gamedata/configs/, or do I need to use the loadouts folder, or something else?

[sonic bolt]

Check what I sent, that should be the right file structure to replace weapons for npcs

[misty mulch]

same folder as its root config

[misty mulch]

use MO2 file search to figure out where its root config file is located

better to learn to find out for yourself, and we have basically given you everything you need to find the answer

[regal bolt]

I see them in both configs/loadouts and configs/items/settings/npc_loadouts

lemme send a screenshot

[misty mulch]

is the file in configs/loadouts named EXACTLY npc_loadouts.ltx?

i omitted the file extension for brevity and because you don't include it in the filename for a dltx file.

[regal bolt]

here

so which folder do I use?

[misty mulch]

is the file in configs/loadouts named EXACTLY npc_loadouts.ltx?
if YES: then use its location
if NO: then don't.

[regal bolt]

I don't have an npc_loadouts.ltx file

just these modded variants

[misty mulch]

. . . you do otherwise your game would not be loading

[regal bolt]

ohhh shit
sry i found it

it was hidden with all the others

[misty mulch]

that's why you want to type the .ltx at the end of the search term if you are looking for the specific file

[regal bolt]

yeah I really should have done that 😅

well I found it now

thanks

[misty mulch]

should be smooth sailing from there

[regal bolt]

alright then

thanks again for the help

[sonic bolt]

Found out this has the most z's in the modlist

[summer stream]

lmao

[lapis vortex]

so the reverse of this will add guns I assume? so if i wanna reactivate the VSS Venal

[misty mulch]

if you add guns to those sources? yes

[misty mulch]

adding is a little harder because it means you have to understand how npc loadout weapon chances work

[sonic bolt]

#╙🖇mods-making-discussion message Both Athi and Frosty show ways to add

[lapis vortex]

I was thinking of either making the Venal a Nimble trade or a Loners only trade
There will be the optional SUP kit craft in another mod though

VSS Venal kit only sold by Loner traders like the Swamp Thing for Clear Sky and the Shakal for Duty

[misty mulch]

nimble trade requires editing the nimble trade script, as those are entirely handled by that one script

kit selling is relatively easier, if you are wiling to direct DLTX the individual trader profiles

but vendors are not necessarily split up by faction (consistently, anyway) in the profiles

[lapis vortex]

i’ll think about it once i get 3DSS on it

i kind of just wanna troll merc mains by making it hard for them to get

[sonic bolt]

[modest sequoia]

i don't know what to make of this - entering ssfx_blood_decals 80, 80, 0, 0 for example says wrong format.
