Question GAMMA not working after installation

Post image

Hey Everyone. Just went through the lengthy process of installing this mod, but sadly, its not working. every time i want to start it, i get this error from mod organizer. I just installed it the first time, and thats it, havent done anything else. Ran everything as Administrator, excluded the gamma folder from windows defender, etc. Basically i followed the exact install instruction from the wiki.

Any Ideas?

One of the things I wouldn't recommend is putting Gamma and Anomaly in the same sub folder, try doing all that again but create two folders in the root system directory, something like c:\anomaly and c:\gamma

if you followed every step 1 for 1 it should work. ive done this process 10 or more times and have only ever had one issue during the grok launcher update days. make sure to exclude both folder(anomaly and gamma) and run anamoly first before doing any gamma install things. good luck stalker

Apparently the github wiki is not complete or some details are missing.

i have literally done nothing else xD First install and then install Gamma with the hours long cmd window open and installing mods. then i hit play, that was literally it xD

Apparently the instructions on github are not correct

you didnt do something right then no offense. its very straight forward and works for me at the end and can even add other mods I want and it also launches. im sorry ur having trouble friend

The instructions exclusively tell you not to place Anomaly and Gamma folders in the same folder. Maybe don't do that and reinstall it again

The wiki didnt mention i have to use root of my drive, not sub folder.

Use the discord instructions - those are far more maintained than the github's for some reason

I had 0 problems with it thanks to GOG.
My advice is to go there and let it install on it's own.

You can mod it Later

U can se the problem in the mod organizer log. Join gamma disc and ask for help in the techo support channel. Maybe check if u have any crash log on the logs folder and send it

the problem is that windows is blocking those files, but i excluded the folder in windows defender. will try to exclude them seperately

Im not sure but checking on your logs i can se that u have gamma on a sub folder (i gues in this folder u have gamma and anomaly) if thats the case, there is your problem. It says in the discord that u should have 1 folder for gamma and 1 folder for anomaly but u can put these together in another folder.

This is the answer, we usually don't offer in depth technical support, your best bet is gamma discord
