To anyone reading, if you downloaded the downloads zip, you can just extract that into your Gamma folder and it will save the launcher the trouble of redownloading the mods

[@marcinorpik1331]

You mean ALL the downloads into the GAMMA Folder?

[@xuhiko7573]

@@kels7780 i think you need to put all the mods into the gamma\mods folder. if the contents are in zip then you might have to extract those as well into each separate folders

Thanks man 😊 appreciate the kind words

[@mcgeiler3915]

You said we should download the huge modpack but you didnt do anything with it. As far as I understand, you could also extract the contents of it into your GAMMA folder so the launcher doesnt have to download all the mods, making it less likely to get blocked, since the bot wouldnt have to make a lot of requests. Am I correct? If so, please make a pinned comment explaining this, since a lot of people have asked about this already. Edit: After sucessfully installing the game, I can confirm that downloading the 12 gigs of mods is not necessary and the launcher does that by itself. You can of course also delete the zip files after you extracted their contents to the folders.

[@pakuize]

thank you bud, this comment should be pinned so much. Should also mention though that his continued comment about ONLY using 7zip is total BS how do I know well I would never use 7zip so I ofc used winrar and works perfectly.

[@ameeralnu3aimy]

thank you brother.

[@anderreguera848]

[@vKross]

Important Tip : Really make sure you un-check the Box under the destination every time you extract files, as otherwise it will create a new folder inside your folders and mess up the install (if it is too late, you can just move the files from as example GAMMA RC3 to Gamma and you should be fine)

[@Agony9877]

Or you can just Go Open with 7z and manualy click to extract,find folder and thats it

[@swazzyx6803]

for anyone else having "shader compilation failed" after watching this guide, I manually turned off "beefs nvgs" and the 3 other shader mods next to it and launched the game fine. afterwards i turned them all back on one at at time and they are all working together now. I dont understand it either but hopefully this helps someone out.

Thank you, that is nice of you to say :)

[@logantaylor3641]

For anyone who’s got a pain In The ass high end gaming laptop/pc like me, once the folder is downloaded it might say “unconfirmed download” once downloaded, give it a minute and if that’s don’t work just go back to the website and it’ll just start downloading again but much quicker this time and fix the issue. As for extracting I couldn’t right click and press 7zip etc for what ever reason so I had to move the downloaded file into a separate folder I made called stalker sheerly to be able to find and navigate to it with 7zip as it couldn’t find it otherwise for some reason. After I then was able to extract it from that folder to the anomaly folder properly, it’s a ball ache/faf I know but this is how I had to do it to ensure it was actually extracted and done correctly, it’s an additional step that I had to take on my own accord using my own knowledge so hopefully this can be of help to someone who had a bit of trouble like me. I hope this helps 🤙🏻.

Thank you for the kind words. It's all the mods so no real way which is annoying as its size of gta v 😂. I mean you could like get rid of some mods you're not interested in or are not as good.

The download speed is way faster if you download 1 item at a time. I got less than 1 mb/s when i downloaded all of them at once. Even pausing them and letting one download didn't work so download the small files first then do the large files one by one. Download speed is around 7 mb/s or higher for me this way
