[@GregoryStevens42069]

Thank you so much. I was doing the quest where you search for Strelok's hideout, I found his documents but the quest didn't update so I figure maybe I had to read them. I clicked use on them and they disappeared from my inventory. Went back to the hideout over 10 times while watching guides to see if I was missing anything. I was positive my game was bugged and I would have to start over but thanks to your guide I was able to spawn the documents I needed and my quest updated.

[@madjack1748]

Thanks. I am really enjoying Anomaly. Rarely though, I'll encounter bugs like mutants spawning inside of a base and killing npcs that aren't scripted to fight back so this is a huge help.

Good sir you are a godsend, I didn't even know that was a thing, and now I do, thank you so very much, that deserves a sub

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

You bet!

[@xaotherion]

Regarding the "stuck lightning bug" at 10:20, to fix it you simply need to click that huge Play button under the weather selection list. I'm mentioning it because when I first encountered this, I lost a whole day trying to debug my Anomaly modlist, thinking that I messed up the weather system. All the while it was just this Play button waiting to be pressed.

[@evilsa1nt]

Just wanted to say thanks for getting my current playthrough unstuck! Figured out the spawner in debug mode but I couldn't get the ID of Lukash so I could necro his dumb ass and move on in my quest. Get Info on his corpse, spawned him in, finished the quest... and then he walked off and got capped again. Oh well - at least I can respawn him again if I ever need to =)

[@xxiwarrior250ixx6]

Lmao, I cracked up when you spawned a Duty Infantry in the base just for the heck of it.

Thank you so much you just helped me get past an annoying task which wants me to go up a tree I can’t climb.

[@MonoChorMe]

Let me guess... It's a tree in Agroprom near the Military complex isn't it? (with a Vortex Anomaly beside it). Luckily I didn't get a quest item there, it was simply a stash... But knowing that it was there really bugged me; always wanted to see what was in it.

[@Dreadnought358]

Actually it was in the red forest, near the wall with the road on the other side.

[@MonoChorMe]

@@Dreadnought358 ooohhh that one... Yea, now i can remember. The one in Agroprom is a direct copy from Red Forest (its the same asset-literally) - albeit, the one in Agroprom has the bag floating in the air, alas making it impossible to interact with.

[@BerraLJ]

One thing i noticed is that man everything on vendors are bloody expensive, i played the original 3 stalker games multiple times and maybe stuff was pricey there to but seems it is worse here, darn inflation :) but the Stalker games are still one of the best games in the genre i would say.

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

Lol I just played original CoP, and i was so excited for water that was 60RU and not 600RU like anomaly Everything is way more expensive in Anomaly lol

[@hogarmenos]

Hi! Getting into Anomaly recently thanks to your great tutorials. I have a very quick question: It is possible to have the changes made into "all.spawn" file on an old game save? For what I heard, you need a new game to load all the new spawning data, but I want to ask you since you know so much about the game and the modding process. Thank you! :)

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

I am unsure. It's possible the game will be okay, but it's just as possible it'll just throw up. My way of going about it is as usual, make a backup of the whole entire Anomaly install. Then play around with the copy and see what happens.

[@hogarmenos]

@@WaveysGamingAdventure Thank you! Yes, the game is going well, but there some content from the modified all.spawn that doesn't load. Those probably need to start a new game from scratch...

[@Delta92F]

does the god mode allow you to transport stuff beyond the inventory weight limit? Because I set a stash full of goodies in a very far place and to bring it back to my base would take an eternity... --yes it does, thank god...

[@denastiypirochkov6262]

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

Squads.. if the NPC you target is part of a squad, you will get all their followers as well.

[@apel0134]

How do you use the outfit editor?

[@zhurouin]

Anyone know if there is any command to change the rank of an npc in debug mode or something like that? Because I wanted to change the hip rank. I already changed the hip rank in the gamedata/configs/gameplay/character_desc_escape files but these changes are only valid in a new game but how to change the rank of an npc in an existing game? Since the command set_rank only changes the actor rank

[@jintarokensei3308]

Is there any way to mark a task as complete? I have a Tourist and Mutant Lair Cleanup tasks but I'm missing a pig and now both are stuck.

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

Unfortunately not.. what you can try to do is wait it out. Sometimes the mutants can get killed on their own. Or you could use the debug menu fast travel to spawn directly on the waypoint of the mutant. Assuming it brings you to the one that's lost, and not just the general location.

[@littlemooshu4171]

Hey man, I got a question, can the debug menu edit the stats under the statistics tab in the PDA? If not, is there any other way to edit those stats?

[@retroocean9430]

When I spawn a gun and put on a scope it doesn’t work anyway to fix?

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

Well u need to make sure the scope can go on the gun. In the weapon’s description, it’ll say what kinds it can or can’t have. After that it’ll be fine, unless of course you have some addons that might change the scopes and such

if you change the weapon and armor stats, the changes apply to ALL the weapons and armors of that type in the whole game yeah? and not just the specific one you are wearing right? Like, if im using a sawn off shotgun, that all the bandits use, and i use the weapon editor to make it ten times more powerful, that change will apply to all the NPC-bandits guns aswell? is there a way to just edit YOUR specific weapon? In OG-Stalker i used to just make new versions of it as i liked modding, but now with anomaly and gamma mode, it looks to complicated =)

[@WaveysGamingAdventure]

Yes! If you edit something already existing there is a chance someone will have it and get those same edits Which is why making a new entry is the way to go

My suggestion, go find the AnomalyLauncher (exe) in the GAMMA installation. Run that, check the Debug Mode on, and launch the game Then go back to GAMMA and launch normally. That’s at least, how I get it done. If you do need the NET framework, that stuff is available via Microsoft’s websites. A google search should suffice.

Yeaaahhh, but it's sorta like throwing darts with a blind-fold on. You'd need to locate which case he wants inside the debug menu's spawn item tool. The way I'd do this, find the section (maybe the 'Quest' items section) or wherever in the spawn items GUI that I can find boxes or cases. I'd spawn each one, one by one, and wait to hear an alert that the mission updated. Then, you know which case it is. Re-load the save, spawn that case, and hand it in.

Once it's done, refresh the window and you'll see a folder called "_unpacked". To use the editors, Inside the "_unpacked" folder is the "configs" & "scripts", you'll want to copy these two folders and paste them into ../Anomaly/gamedata Should be obvious but I'll mention it, you CANNOT have any addons in your game while playing around with the editors.
