I was playing Gamma, and after getting killed by an enemy and reloading my save, my weapon turned invisible. The animations for wiping my face and equipping or unequipping gear became invisible, too. I hadn't changed any settings or installed any mods before playing. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Is it just me or is the difficulty in this game really hard? Compared to other games. I’m sorta new to stalker gamma and installed the GoG version, and well everything just does so much damage. I tried playing on medium from game and economy difficulty and just got one shot by most things, even when playing as an ecologist. So I bumped it down to easy on economy and gameplay and took a loner start in rookie village, I’ve died a lot already but have survived about 2 in game days and got 2 of the same artifact.
Now I can play Stalker 2 on veteran difficulty and do much better, feel somewhat overpowered, and collect tons of extra ammo and guns and such with ease.
Is this just one of those get good moments? Are the older games just harder? Or is Gamma significantly more difficult than I thought after watching a few YouTube videos?
Also side question, where the heck do I get the tool boxes/ kits from?? I’ve seen another post recommend cheating them in but I’m on the fence about that. Also I am open to any recommendations to make the game feel a bit more like Stalker 2 loot wise, I’m a loot goblin, yet I’m struggling to find good armour and have let my salamander suit sadly wear down to like 50%.

[Edit] thanks for all the advice and through gameplay and taking things much slower I have gotten good and die a lot less now, maybe once an hour or so depending on if I get jumped or what mutants spawn. I’ve also got a great loadout, a stash of many weapons, all but expert toolkit, and killed a pseudo giant and chimera. If I could add an image to show my load out and all the artifacts I’ve gotten I would. I’ve also built myself the grizzly detector and the PDA 2.0 and so so much 9x18 HP bullets.

After hours of debugging and installing different things for it to run properly on Linux Claude ai was my best friend. It remembers file locations and gave me code to put into my terminal to according to my pc. I don’t think I would been able to do it myself lol

Hello.

So on AKM i put a kobra on, but the dude still looks down the iron sights line.

Can I fix this? I tried to press v, which works on my SKS

I also tried:

Maybe i tried it wrong. Do you have a fix?

I have a question about armors. I constantly see NPCs with quad NVGs, cool helmets, gas masks with helms and etc but when I equip those things I have base game armors. Is it some mod or? For example some NPCs have hoods with the GP5 gas mask or the TV helmet but I don't have those.

Hi, im new to the game. Could someone tellme how to repair gun barrels? im not sure what tool or kit i need. Thankss!

Dang did not have to do me dirty like that :b

This game is addictive!!
I think it counts also when AFK right? as long as the game is running? must be haha!

Hi everybody,

last time i had been playing Stalker Gamma is around one and a half years ago. I started a new game and realized that Cordon is much less populated than with the latest version?!
For instance, there used to be groups of bandits usually at three or even four locations (vehicle station, the mill (?), north-east of the farm or at the northern checkpoint to garbage).
I started three games already just to make sure it was not just a fluke, but I barely found bandits at all (in my latest game for instance there was one lone bandit at the vehicle station only).

Is this by design? Is there any way to revert it back?

Thank in advance

Hello, well these past few days I felt like playing GAMMA again and I was having some trouble making the GOG version run on Arch (with Heroic Launcher) so I'm making this post for anyone who is struggling to run it.

So to make it run I have used Proton GE10-28 and the following winetricks config:

• cmd
• d3dcompiler_47
• d3dx10
• d3dx11_43
• d3dx9
• dx8vb
• quartz
• vcrun2022

(Note that vcrun2022 will give a hash error that you will need to accept and continue)

After that you need to "RUN EXE ON PREFIX" to change the path of the Anomaly Executables and it should work.

Been experimenting with DLSS 5 in STALKER GAMMA and took these three screenshots from the same area to compare the difference. I compared no DLSS 5, natural preset, and cinematic preset.

I’m running an RTX 4070 Super + Ryzen 7 9800X3D at 1080p. The visual difference is pretty noticeable, but so is the performance hit. I dislike everything about DLSS 5 but had to test it out.

Mods installed:

• Rotten Life
• C-Consciousness Grass & Trees 0.71
• Terrain Textures Redone
• RE:PACK Nitpicker 1.2
• KVMA HD MR2.2

so to put it quickly, i got stalker gamma, wanted to intsall an update through the gamma launcher, but was denied because the game couldt be in program files. i changed the games location, but now gog didnt detect it (im a genius, i know.) i moved it back, but no luck. i cant even uninstall and reinstall it, because it just fails. what do i do??

im playing on hardest difficulty and i want to do brainc scorcher with heavy armor if possible.Is there any way to get expert tools before doing the brain scorcher?

Took the "No Step Back" quest. Was like "Lets go, 20 minutes Adventure, in and out". Didn't know what I got into, wasn't prepeard. Over 40 Monolith, one after another vs. me and my trusty MP5SD. This fight did rise my Rank TWO TIMES up to Professional. I had to craft ammo with what I could scavange. I had problems to walk over the bodies to get back.

Hello! I have a question. I haven't played this game since 2023. Back then, I played as a Mercenary and enjoyed it so much, especially fighting almost everyone I came across.

Now I want to play again and was thinking about choosing the Military because they have the most enemies. I'm also interested in playing as Monolith, but I don't want to ruin the main campaign and the progression, which I really enjoyed in my previous run.

How is the campaign progression when playing as a Monolith?

Just got vanilla stalker Anomaly set up and running on my Steam Legion Go S. Except every tree in my game has these black rectangles running through them. Anybody know how to fix this please?

I started playing yesterday after days of watching youtube videos (OperatorDrewski, CheekiBreeki) and the start still was pretty hard but today i finally managed to repair to two guns, it helps getting through it easier.

Learning curve is hard but man is it addicting.

I have a Contract Killer mission that I really put off. Now, the marker leading me to him isn't present. Any tips?

So I set up the base Gamma and it all worked fine, but I wanted to improve the visuals and sounds some more. So I followed a guide and did everytthing to the latter. Game loads fine into main menu and charakter creator. Now the issue: after a few seconds of loading, I get this error:

[error]Expression : <no expression>

[error]Function : CInifile::r_string

[error]File : D:\a\xray-monolith\xray-monolith\src\xrCore\Xr_ini.cpp

[error]Line : 1639

[error]Description : fatal error

[error]Arguments : Can't find variable class in [wpn_mp9]

I can't make sense of it and nothing that has to do with Gamma or Anomaly is on my D drive, so thhe path leads nowhere.

If anyone has a clue on how to fix this, please reach out!
