Using only AI to generate code

it's useless

Ohh you mean vibe AI coding? it doesn't work? dayumpepesludge

Dayum, I was hoping AI could at least make a basic running system to build off of. pepesludge

It did make some scripts from earlier when I told it to, can you take a look?

slow bolt
#

It can make programs and stuff

#

but stalker mods? Nah

analog zephyr
#

I had it change some parts of it earlier and haven't generated an updated script but that's the first iteration

modest sequoia

not dishing on you but i'd rather learn the hard way to script then use something i don't understand to make something i don't understand how it's working

True, just wanted to check ways to make things not consume too much time so I get to play gamma instead LOL

# analog zephyr

the thing is if you don't at least understand the basics of how to follow code, how are you meant to know whether or not it's giving you anything useful?

#

we aren't even going into "how are you going to troubleshoot" when you aren't able to follow what the actual problem is

#

i have seen someone begging copilot to troubleshoot their copilot generated code and it ain't pretty

analog zephyr
#

I did study basics of on how to code but barely understood much of it LOL. I get some of the ideas on how the script is working when I'm reading through it but I can't make the script itself coz I don't know the correct process or how to approach things as a modder. Like finding out what callback to use for something. I totally don't know how to do that so I have gemini normally review it for me and I have it breakdown what those lines do so I get the gist of it at least.

modest sequoia
#

yeah i gotta learn about callbacks too.. that's in my future

analog zephyr
misty mulch
#

the problem is that you're running into a "not even wrong" problem if you ever want to ask actual anomaly modders for help

#

like. i'm not the greatest lua modder. but i went over the mcm documentations and just

#

why do you need to dynamically insert faction tabs with no options in them? why are those your MCM options? we're not getting into the part where you're missing all the text strings explaining what the fuck those options actually will say

#

and i know for a fact you can't explain them, because you didn't make that decision

#

so what is the point of giving feedback?

analog zephyr
#

There's no options in the faction tabs? dayum, you're far ahead, I haven't read that part of the code yet. I'm still working LOL. Thanks for going through it though.

misty mulch
#

this is exactly what i mean

hey ask gemini if excel can pick rgb values out of 3 diff cells and make another cell that color

im tweaking muzzle flash size and color. the colors are r g b but in values 0 to 1

#

so that lower right part is converting to rgb and im punching those numbers into photoshop to see what the color looks like

analog zephyr
modest sequoia
#

yeah

#

so like u3 w3 and t3 has the color value for shotguns

#

i want excel to figure out which color that is πŸ™‚

#

or display it

analog zephyr
#

I don't know if gemini can help but it can't hurt to try right? Send me the excel LOL

#

What exactly do you wanna figure out?

#

The values for the color you want?

modest sequoia
#

i just want to know if excel can read a cell and go 'that's the red portion of a color'

#

then read 2 more for green and blue and say this cell is that color

#

but i doubt it.

#

maybe in vb but that's another can of worms πŸ™‚

Don't know much about vibe. Didn't even know it existed up until a few minutes ago when @slow bolt mentioned it and I googled it LOL

analog zephyr
# misty mulch why do you need to dynamically insert faction tabs with *no options in them*? wh...

I see what you mean here, just went through the code of the MCM options real quick. From what I understand, I think Gemini tried to follow my instructions to make options dynamically appear as soon as a new identity is created. That new identity isn't immediately visible in the MCM until it's created. Then it uses a combination of placeholder text IDs (I think this is the randomly generated name when you generate an identity the first time, which are then translated by the game into the actual text you see) and dynamically generated strings. When the identity has been fully created, what you'll see I think is a name and it's reputation beside it. I also told it to make the random names it comes up with editable and a goodwill display of that identity against every faction so I think it added those in too

#

I'm not sure this would work though, would it?

#

I guess I can test it later after work anyway

signal bobcat

Anyone know what editable value allows you to change the view box for scopes with dragable HUD editor?

damage is an awful rabbithole

not to mention the HP-ammo "no penetration damage penalty" only against stalkers

and also that all of these changes only affect damage dealt by the player. but changing k_hit affects damage dealt by NPCs using that ammo too

signal bobcat
# misty mulch did you also peep the mutant specific damage mults

I haven't looked at that yet, I do want to start editing that tho eventually tho, because I think a chimera taking about 12 23x76mm shotgun shells is a bit excessive considering you can shoot a tree down from the stump with about that many 23mm shot gun shells

oh also learn to use MO2 file search and never use windows file search to look through gamma mods

signal bobcat
misty mulch
# signal bobcat Oh for why?

!mo2search // because as a modder, the only file that matters is the one that wins file conflicts, none of the other copies have any effect once you play. so only use the file searcher because it displays 1. the winning file and 2. tells you which mod provides it

imagine it's all one giant texture mod overwrite fight, and everyone is using loose files all the time

signal bobcat
signal bobcat
misty mulch
#

and that's why conflicts can actually be critical to make a modpack work, for certain patch mods

signal bobcat
#

Usually conflict in Bethesda shit makes the engine cry

misty mulch
#

it's definitely more primitive than e.g. creation engine anything

#

especially since e.g. script patching aka monkeypatches can have arbitrary (and therefore unsearchable) names

#

at least config overwrite files (DLTX) have a standardized filename convention

you could imagine a refactor of it that breaks it out into subfunctions, and incidentally, one that wasn't so goddamn redundant

sonic bolt
#

Unrelated do you think we could get people to start using y's or other letters to prevent z stacking KekSkew id do it

misty mulch
#

once upon a time i dreamed of a really dirty python script that you could run to rename dltx files using 000_ number prefixes

#

to force a specific DLTX load order

#

but the thing is, unless you can mind control every current and future modder: no

sonic bolt
#

I'm gonna do my part 🫑

#

Does your dltx guide mention it? Maybe we can force anyone moving forward to use that instead omegakekw

misty mulch
#

i write an entire section on how to resolve dltx conflicts and never once do i mention "put a z in it"

signal bobcat
misty mulch
#

you asked me this earlier, i believe, and my response is the same: the responsible thing to do is to figure out how to name your file such that it minimally loads after whatever you're conflicting with.

misty mulch
#

not users

#

arguably it's not a great idea to let non-modders use such a tool, even, because it becomes even more comically easy to shoot yourself in the foot

misty mulch
sonic bolt
#

Yeah sorry, some of that probably flew over my head dumb

misty mulch
#

z-stacking is what you do out of frustration, through trying to race to the bottom against other people z-stacking, or because you don't actually understand how conflict resolution/DLTXes work and therefore are doing it because you're just copying shit without knowing why it works

#

because as soon as one person starts doing it, everyone else is forced into doing it as well, as ATHI can tell you

#

and the best thing to do is never pre-emptively do this shit in the first place, because you don't know if someone in the future will have a good reason to overwrite your files

sonic bolt

And to make it future proof

misty mulch
#

That's what I mean. Once one person starts, it's a race to the bottom

celest forge
#

Sadly yeah

#

I guess one type of patch you can make is overwriting the LTX file you want to edit but atp we're back to square one like if we didn't have DLTX at all

misty mulch
#

If I had a magic wand I'd have made the convention be x-stacking because it's funnier

#

And you still get two letters for overwrites

celest forge
#

I mean I wish it started with like

#

Idk

#

Q stacking

misty mulch
#

Just normal ass names

celest forge
#

And that left plenty of room

#

But people z stacking from the get go is just very aggressive

misty mulch
#

Yup. Just don't go straight to the end of the alphabet

celest forge
#

Does that order scheme also take into account numbers?

sonic bolt
#

So if it weren't for someone using Z right off the bat it wouldn't have been so bad? Damn

misty mulch
misty mulch
sonic bolt
#

So if I were to upload a mod, should I try to use other letters? My AIDS mod uses Zs cuz some of the other mods in the list have Zs too iirc

misty mulch
#

At this point it's just about not trying to make the problem worse, and figuring out when you have to use it versus doing it by default

I've figured out with the dragable HUD editor mod, when you copy the values from the change.dtx file or whatever it's called, the entries into that are usually NOT ACCURATE to what is represented onto your screen, so you have to copy what the values on your screen are from dragable HUD editor to the change.dtx file because all the values are usually off by about 30%

# fair canopy Position depends on the animation and origin points

I don't think I articulated what I was saying well above.

From me messing around with 4 different guns with dragable HUD editor, for some reason for me at least what is represented with the dragable HUD editor UI does not accurately get translated to cache_dbg, so I've had to cross reference what dragable HUD editor UI says with what's written in the file, change it to be what is represented by DHEs UI because the numbers in cache_dbg were not at all what was on DHEs UI if that makes sense

#

I was mainly making edits along I think the Y axis in DHE and whenever I'd save the changes and make my own personal mod with the the gun would be randomly shifted like randomly, till I figured out that the cache_dbg file had random numbers not the real ones lol

fair canopy
#

Then something is wrong with your dhe or you aren't overwriting the actual values

signal bobcat
# fair canopy Then something is wrong with your dhe or you aren't overwriting the actual value...

No the actual values were getting over written, usually id lightly look through to see if there were any Z overwrites for X gun, then make the mod and then be confused why the gun was shifted up and to the right out of my hands once I added the mod to my modlist. Then I looked at what was written in cache_dbg, it was not recorded correctly till I started cross referencing them. Like the actual values in cache_dbg were off by about 30-50% compared to what was directly on DHEs UI with DHE being the accurate one and cache_dbg having inaccurate information.

I mean either way tho I'm getting the results I want, I just figured I'd share in case anyone else is experiencing what I was

#

I do have the modded EXE, and the prerequisites for DHE

I have no idea what the issue could be. I've done thousands of positions and never ran into numbers being off

Hi. Sorry to butt in with a new question but if anyone has time later... I'm trying to enable fire_modes 2 and/or -1 (Auto) for double-barrel shotguns in the weapon *.ltx files. That has worked for me in the past for SoC OGSR+Gunslinger, and so did full auto for a glock - but not in GAMMA. All that happens is that I can click the switch firemode button and get animation + sound, but the firemode stays at 1. Anyone know why? It seems to be a known fact of Stalker modding that fire_modes only work for some weapons. What I'm really wondering is if there's anything I can do to hack together something that works. Or if it is impossible.

inventory xml: ui_inventory.xml and ui_inventory_16.xml for wide screen. this file controls the location and textures for the inventory UI. as assembled by ui_inventory.script

i'd say most of what you want can be done by editing that xml.

(your screen shots are missing the "picker" the ui in the middle that shows up when you click on a stack of items and lets you pick a particular one out of the stack. turning staking off so the picker isn't needed is possible. )

the item wheel you should find the item wheel mod and dig out it's xml to see how to reskin it.

# sly knoll thanks a lot this should get me started πŸ˜„ do you have any idea on how to render...

There are a limited number of fonts in the game. their names are hard coded in the engine, so while one can modify them one cannot add more.

the text display is also limited, and text scales independently of the rest of the UI, so can be hard to accommodate.

to get really good control of text display i would just make a texture for each letter and put them on screen myself via a script. Fortunately for my laziness i don't care if the text looks off so i just use the default fonts

do you know which file location that you can use to change Attachment stats like grid and kelva armor @misty mulch

misty mulch
#

the answer to "how do i edit the config for whatever" is almost always "You should be making a dltx override and not directly editing the config itself"

#

haven't you already done that? you were editing ammo configs

regal bolt
#

i did

#

i have DLTX file now

misty mulch
#

yeah so... do that again but for attachments

#

to figure out attachments, run a find-in-file search on either the gamma mods folder or the unpacked anomaly folder, for the section ID of any attachment you want to edit

#

that should get you the base config file

#

and then you do the usual "find root file" thing

I already added everything needed to the interface and wrote a script to change the character's speed, but for some reason at a speed of ~150% of normal during sprinting, small damage is dealt and the character loses speed.

simple scaffold
# tawny prawn I just want to change the background of the main menu to a Image file, while not...

main menu appearance is controlled by a script and an xml. 99% of main menu mods can and do ignore the script.

the xml is this one: https://github.com/RAX-Anomaly/Anomaly-Mod-Configuration-Menu/blob/main/gamedata/configs/ui/ui_mm_main_16.xml

note this is the base MCM version. it is likely that gamma has modified it more. you will need to search in mo2 for the active version of this file in gamma.

in my version line 4 has the background texture name. convert your background image of choice to .dds and put it in gamedata/textures/ and type its name in that place. note the file used by this xml is actually in gamedata/textures/ui and the file name in the xml has the ui\ in front of it. the xml takes a path-name starting in the textures folder.

in theory you can make the edits to the xml with the dxml system to reduce conflicts but that is a bigger fish and probably overkill for a first mod.

@simple scaffold Also do you think if i manage to do it and change the picture, will it stil be compatible with ex: UI rework by Sota? or it may cause issues with other UI and menu mods?? ( Because i just literally want the background to be different..nothing else) cheers!

# tawny prawn <@155830872027693057> Also do you think if i manage to do it and change the pict...

if you take the xml from their mod and change name of the background image it will contain all of thier other changes. You should generally ask permission before publishing that kind of derived work.

option 2 you could look at their xml file, find out what they named their background image and have your mod just be your image with that name , and let mo2 replace theirs with yours.

option 3 (and again this is over kill for this kind of thing) use a dxml script to change the xml file once it has been loaded into the games memory to use a difernt background image.

options 2 is what you should do if you only want to change the one image.

option 1 would be if you wanted to do something like move the menu to one side, or add another badge at the bottom.

option 3 takes option1 as a prototype and makes it something that doesn't contain anyone else's work. but requires some knowledge of lua and is only mentioned because i am pedantic, not because it is something you should look at for mod number 1.

it has advantages and disadvantages. For "removing one item from everyone" it is way easier. and for my use case of giving evey merchant that sells a fort pistol a fort pistol mag it is way easier and won't break when someone like you removes the fort from sids trade profile.

# celest forge Anyone knows how the LTX damage values translate into the GAMMA stat card?

Default gun damage stat calc:
( (hit_power * first bullet in gun config's k_hit) ) / 150
This is because every stat for display, is normalized to 0 - 150 by default, because that's the range for the stat bars.

For actual damage on hit, use my simulator.

And yes the easy way is just to copy the value from another gun in the same caliber, those are essentially listed out in the weapons database I made (just divide by 100)

#

I'm on my phone so would need to double check how the normalizing function actually works, but close enough

Hi guys,I’m learning to make hard surface weapon models in Blender and I have a question about texturing them for Unreal Engine 5 (or in general). I’ve seen different workflows: some people keep the weapon as one solid mesh with one big texture, while others keep it split into parts (like stock, muzzle, body) and texture each separately.My issue is that when I tried one big model, the texture quality was too low because the pixel density per part dropped. So what’s the better approach for weapons β€” one combined mesh (except for animated parts like the magazine or bolt), or keeping everything separate and assembling in the engine?

Hi, Stalkers! lurking
A quick question.
Is there a value in the game engine to reduce the cursor scale?
Something like cursor_scale 0.8?
Even though I have the game set to the nominal monitor resolution, it is not displayed at a 1:1 scale, which makes it blurry. Reducing its texture does not solve the problem, because it then loses resolution and detail.

misty mulch

replace the line under ![merc_combat_scientific_outfit] with the one you just copied

Is anyone aware of a binoculars quickdraw.script equivalent?
I want to keep knife in binos-slot and upon middle mouse button I want to quick use binoculars - return to previous active item on key release

#

I'm looking at G.A.M.M.A. Close Quarter Combat , specifically quickdraw.script but with all the magic constants and shortened var/function names it's black magic... And at some point it freaking deletes the knife (or animation? Are animations also objects in the same sense as NPCs or items) and then recreates it? What!?

#

So why are slots 0-5 special? This is 6 slots and my understanding is that there are 5 "weapon slots" [main, secondary, knife, binos, grenade] so what is the sixth slot?

local hit_slot = {
    [0] = true,
    [1] = true,
    [2] = true,
    [3] = true,
    [4] = true,
    [5] = true,
}
...
if not (hit_slot[db.actor:active_slot()]) then return end

But I must off the target entirely because why would we interrupt quickdraw with a knife when a weapon is active? Are slots in active_slot even what I'm thinking about (the items activated on 1,2,3,4,5,6,g etc key press)?

#

ok, so apparently copilot can help me understanding all that, you can ignore my questions i guess because by the time someone answers I'll probably be on a different issue anyway.

Thank you so much for the reply and all the info ❀️ cheers!

I already contacted Sota, explained that im a total noob and that this main menu mod would be my first mod(if just changing the gamma main menu to a still jpeg can even be considered a mod hahaha), told him what I wanted to do and all that, but I didnt quite get the answer I was looking for hahaha... Im all against plagiarism in any form of way so ofcourse I wouldnt publish something like that, BUT the thing Im interested in is will his mod conflict with me attempting to change gamma background? Do you maybe know?

Because Sota DIDNT change the gamma main menu image in his mod, his mod only sends the main menu options to the left side of the screen with a new font and all that (the image is still gamma image)...sooo my question is would I need to mod GAMMA base files? or his mod files?.... Like I dont understand whats the right choice...( keep in mind i want to keep both the new image that i want to put in paired with Sota rework)

If the correct way to do it requires changing his mod then thats a completely different thing right, I would once again need to reach out to Sota which I will ofcourse!

PS: I think the gamma main menu that we have now isnt a still image(correct me if im wrong) but i think its either a gif or mp4 right?

Will that conflict with me just wanting it to be a still jpeg?

# tawny prawn Thank you so much for the reply and all the info ❀️ cheers! I already contacted...

can't be jpeg, needs to be dds

if the existing file is one of the animation formats they will take precedence over a dds so the option 2 i mentioned before won't actually work. you will need a different file name and edit the xml to point to that.

If Sota's mod has the main menu xml in it you will need to edit that file. if sota uses a dltx script you will need to edit the gamma xml.

to be honest if you search for the xml file in the mo2 data tab it will give you the active file and tell you what mod it is from. it is the active file you need to edit. so it doesn't really matter what mod it is from. unless you want to clear up permissions before publishing.

So i changed AEK to 60 mag in the config , its type C ( rifle_5 ) in ltx. If i want to change the AEK to D class , this screenshot is mk14 ( dclass ) which is rifle_7. do i change the repair type in aek ltx to rifle_7 to make it a D class weapon after making it a 60 mag?

#

thats a yes i guess!

#

I did the same with hk416, made it a 60mag, but making it D class, along with AEK 60mag

sonic bolt
#

60 mag with normal 30 round sized mags? KekSkew

tepid trellis
#

I mean you cant change the mags lool

#

even with mag mod, they dont change

#

the mags will be a 60rnd in inventory with mag mod, but the mag is still a 30 visually when you reload.

#

so same difference. lol

Oh I thought you just changed the ammo count like how the MP5SD6 has 40 rounds now

@summer stream for example I want to recolor and add some sticker to this gun, it seems difficult to edit every detail here, tried looking for how to wrap uv map in blender, but haven't found, how would you solve this problem?

summer stream
#
  1. go into blender
  2. select required zone via L and selecting the UV
  3. go into UV editor
  4. look at the UV that it uses
  5. put sticker above it using Photoshop or anything else

you put them ON THE COLOR TEXTURE

#

substance painter can be used to make

the textures

first is base color

after that, normal, roughness and metallic

how hard is it to modify a gun? I really want the bas groza to be able to take a supressor

adding the suppressor is easy enough, but the groza's grenade launcher shortening the barrel makes it finicky

Nah I'm good, this was easier than I thought KEK

# lapis vortex which line of code is responsible for ballistic res

bones_coeff_protection. obviously, it is not a number, instead you need to find the section actor_armor_ghillie in damages.ltx (...or at least i think that's the file) and check its numbers/use DLTX to alter its figures. GAMMA only cares about the bip_01_spine (ballistic res for body) and bip_01_head (ballistic res for head) figures

@honest dust the file you want to look at is your GAMMA folder\mods\G.A.M.M.A. Guns Have No Condition\gamedata\configs\mod_system_zzzzzzzzzz_streamlined_misfire_probability.ltx

Guys, I've downloaded a mod for additional armors. The mod has models, and everything works... BUT in first-person view, the body seems to be without armor

you forgot to add "_legs" after the outfit name

keen meadow
keen meadow

#

It should look something like this. first half is outfit filename, second part is the suffix you need to add "_legs"

Screenshot_1.png
#

visual determines the filepath for the leg model inside "meshes" folder

keen meadow
rough lion
#

Then i have no idea what to say shrug

keen meadow
#

do you have information about where a similar file is located, but for vanilla armor?

slow bolt
rough lion
#

Yeah thats possible if thats the case

keen meadow
#

and the mod for additional space suits also does not apply to third-party mods.

#

hahahahaha I found a solution

it was necessary to change the code not in the SWM itself, but in the GAMMA hands legs models swap mode

I cant find where or how to submit a form..also what form do they mean by refeering it to "this form"?

gloves? That is a part of the model

and since you don't know - you wont be able to do it

One is attachments and the other ammo types, don't remember which is first

that is where the explanation for all of it is

wise notch

thank you both

simple scaffold

which is to say look at the dyamic anomalies script

slow bolt
#

static anomalies are registered on NPC pathing while dynamic ones are not

simple scaffold
#

I have never seen any evidence of that.

slow bolt
#

Wdym

#

they literally walk right into them

#

that is the problem with the dynamic anomalies mod

#

the other one is that it can create anomalies anywhere - even campsites. But for this purpose that is not an issue

rough lion
#

There's only dynamic_anomalies.ltx and it only controls anomalies that will shuffle between off/on state
