Desolation Mod Weapon guide/tutorial (S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly)

g'day mites this is going to be my in-depth weapon tutorial for the Desolation mod specifically the one that is technically a beta that you get that you get from the Discord page desolation 0.2.4.21 pod fix eight some of these points will be relevant for the prior version the technically I call full release it's available on mud TV right now I'm just going to go over a few settings before we actually get into this I need to point these out and they will be relevant for the rest of the video okay so the very first setting for people if you're looking for the Desolation specific options that you can turn on and off go to your settings here go to gameplay and then desolation specific you're going to find all of your options here okay and go through and enable disabled magazines your character body you've got your cover weapon compression that's uh that's you know when you're going up against a tree or something your weapon sort of moves out of the way um utility models you're inertia type your horizontal vertical recoils all those other sorts of settings the alternate pricing system and the inertia Factor all of your settings are here if you install a mod let's say the base um Dynamic mutants and dynamic nocturnal mutants it will eliminate this option here it won't show up and then you'll just be given whatever the game gives you so like it'll enable magazines and you can't do anything with it that's why if you're going to run anything in like that you want to run the dltx version of dynamic mutants just for demonstration so if this option isn't here when you install a mod it's probably advised to either find a compatibility patch make one yourself or use a different mod but if you go to the Discord I guarantee you someone's already got an answer I love a lot of very smart people on their Discord page I'm not one of them that's for sure there's a hell of a lot of very smart people there okay that's the first thing now this other part it's very relevant for what I'm going to be going over okay so these are my keys in case you want to pause and have a look at how I set up my anomaly desolation or how I play anomaly period or anything that air what have you these are my key settings you can pause it if you're looking for how you should set yourself up the Mind settings that we want to look for are right down the bottom attachments as you can see here I use an MMO Mouse okay so I will be referring to the keys that I use via the number uh number pad numbers okay now I'm going to briefly go over these for you vanilla site and module site that is on num number pad six so when I say six that's what I mean now what this basically means here vanilla sites is your base site that's already on the gun for some guns do come with a base site already and you could mod to add something on a 45 degree angle to it that's what it would be referring to but most other guns like a standard AK or an M4 or what have you it's referring to the iron sights okay that's what that means your module site or your very first site that's actually attached to the gun all right so that's usually yours your 1X or then your 4X your 6X 8X 24x what have you that's the very first site that's on your gun okay and this button here number nine is the button that switches between your module modular sites all right so I'm going to describe that a little bit more as we get into this okay site adjustment that's your horizontal and vertical up and down left and right on your screen okay your side button depth that's away from you and towards you so respectively that's number seven and number eight let's go magnification that's number number pad five that needs no introduction you've got a site that has eight times by 24 times or 12 times that means that site has two magnification levels that you could switch to that's what that is like any other standard game activating deactivating night vision scopes there's a couple of sites that do have night vision on them one of them being the malice malice site but if you're going to run dos or rdap they've got other sites in there that also have night vision on them as well I'm not running those two packs as I'm not able to run them effectively and still maintain a stable mod pack okay and that is um number pad delete on here but on my MMO Mouse in case you have one that's number 11. okay and then your accessories I've set that to the Z button all right so these are the main ones you need to remember six nine seven eight and five okay now let's get into the game I'm over here in rostock and it's still early morning let me just change that will freeze time all right here's Potranco he's the guy that usually sells you your guns he's going to sell certain parts I've got a fairly High reputation right now with Judy so my guy open up his inventory you're going to find all of these weapons now on a refresh you're going to see a different sort of icon on here let's see if I can find the scope uh the binoculars it should have binoculars here for sale um yes you're going to see an icon similar to this you're going to see like a little magnification symbol and just any old random sort of gun like a handgun and you'll go over those particular guns and it will reveal what's actually on that gun as you can see here ak-103 doesn't normally come with a forward grip or forward handle without however you want to call it okay so if you ever come across a reset and you're looking at all the guns thinking why is that and then and then it starts revealing that's what it's doing it's like a little mini randomizer like this one here automatically comes with a silencer on it okay now the other thing that Potranco sells because he's an equipment dealer so he's dealing or a gun Runner gun dealer he will sell your silencers and your scopes with this particular version of the game the prior version was a little bit all over the show this one here there's two specific people to keep an eye out for okay so you can see all of the sites all of the all of the um muzzles the silencers there will be muzzles in here sometimes too all right let's go over to our second source of parts okay we're over here at our second source of pots Mangum the technician if I open up his inventory you're going to see all of your other parts are here you'll find your muzzles for the specific guns you'll find your your buffer tubes your stocks everything all of the internal components or any other components that need to be upgraded you're going to find them here okay now because I've given man gun all three upgrade kits and it is imperative that you do that you're going to find that you're going to have a lot of these these are for the maintenance of the weapons that'll be for a later part of the video now this is the other part of the video now if you remember those settings I'm just going to quickly bring them up again for you so that you are reminded vanilla site's module site number six switch between modular sites number nine horizontal vertical number seven and depth away from you towards you number eight okay so right now I have an AEK in my hands and I've set up two sites on them I've got an ACOG and I've got a camper okay the ACOG is the main site the camper is the secondary site I haven't set these up yet so if I press the right Mouse button you're going to see this this is the iron sight of where the iron sights would be okay now when you first try to get these sides to work you're going to have to press these two buttons one after the other sometimes it could be six then nine and it activates or other times you might need a six nine and then a six again from what I've noticed so far I haven't had to go any further than that okay so in this case here I'm going to press six nothing happened now press nine all right it's born down the main site okay now if I press six again it'll go to the iron sights press six again it'll go to the main site okay now if I press nine right now it's going to switch to the camper site okay that's a secondary modular site press it again it'll go back to the ACOG now if I go to the secondary modular site the camper right with number nine and now I press number six it's going to go straight to the iron sights if I press six again it's going to go to the secondary modular site okay all right now what I do for lining up these sites okay so we're going to be referring to seven and eight it's a horizontal vertical number seven and depth number eight so for this particular site here it's um some guns so that you're aware are not going to work too well with certain sites some sites will um will work others will not so in the case of the ACOG here you can see where the red is okay if I was to fire the gun once you'd see that the shot has landed about the Third third one down now I believe it's because in Desolation the ability to set the um what is it the the yards or something on the site so you would normally set 100 yards 200 yards 300 yards to the site it's not active I think if that was to be activated the sights would be all good but there's not working right now okay so I can't do anything with the site if I was to press seven you can now see that I'm moving that site left to right up and down okay it's not really going to do anything still ending up in the same spot okay now if I was to do number eight I could move it all the way out or I can move it all the way in and in this case all I'm doing is holding the button and moving the mouse backwards to go so towards me to move it outwards and then outwards away from me to bring the site in okay since that site isn't working I'm going to show you how I line up my sights now I've taken off the ACOG because on this particular gun it won't work too well but this is going to be relevant for all weapons when you want to try and line them up or get them to work a little bit better most of those high level are six times 25 times 20 24 whichever are going to be pretty well dead set on most weapons other guns it won't be tus and rdap mods do have sites on there that decounter that I have found a few um but in this case here I'm only running just the standard desolation so you see I put the Kemper straight onto the picatinny rail dust cover for the AEK okay first of all I have to realign the site so I've just taken everything off so I'm going to have to realign everything because I've just changed it so again press six and then nine and in this case here it didn't work so if I press six again it's lined itself up okay so sometimes you may need to press six then nine and then six again to get it to work now as I'm aiming down the side here I'm going to fire a single shot and you can see that the bullet holes right there my mouse didn't really move very far let me just change that to single file here we go all right there's the shot so now I'm going to press number seven horizontally vertically move that down so that the site is right on that bullet hole now some of these sites are going to look a little odd when you do it this way but at least you know now whenever you fire that shot is pretty much going to be on the mark but sometimes when I'm making my videos you're going to see the sites are a little bit weird this would be why and that just helps you out for when you're playing the mod is still being worked on remember this and it's going to take time so not everything's going to be perfect just have to find ways to work things around so now I can move that side out a little bit more if I wanted to or I want it to be realistic or you know if you're half blind Like Me Maybe you want to have the damn thing right there yes this looks good [Laughter] now I've just adjusted it to where I would like to have it somewhere around about there that way my cheeks going down to the butt pad stock should say and now my shots are pretty much on site all right so for this part of the video and we're going to go over damage and maintenance of the guns okay so I've got three different Glocks in my hand right now generally before the gun gets down to about 58 72 lubrication needed and 83 percent condition all these guns were at good condition before it gets down to this point from a fresh gun I've got about five magazines of ammunition now I've tested each one of these with the Glocks it could be different with other guns well sorry it will be different with other guns but I've tested all different types of ammunition so you see here number one is FMJ all right khp for the second gun third gun was AP it's no difference between them not yet I don't think that damage system is implemented where the different types of ammunition would do different levels of dust and stuff like that some guns like sniper rifles you'll only be able to fire maybe 10 Rounds before you get down to this point here where you've still got to start looking at um looking at maintaining your gun before it gets too bad but in this case here I fired five magazines again there's 15 rounds per magazine okay this one here I fired uh around about eight magazines okay I got it down to about 85 73 so just on the yellow and this one here I fired 150 rounds and I got a dandel that 54 with the 100 dust level that's down about halfway so if you were to continuous far and continue with continue firing this is what your gun's going to look like out the field now if you how to counter that you got your repair materials now repair materials don't work the same way as they do in other games most of all these will just generally repair your condition of the gun period these ones here are considered lubrication so these will clear out or lubricate your gum these ones here the progress clean ing kits they will clean the gun so the name is the name pretty much stands okay and then these ones here now all these larger packets will repair your gun now between all weapons it doesn't matter what you use so if you're going to repair the gun you can repair any weapon in the game with the handgun repair kit it'll give them 10 percent according to this and they're all basically the same they're all only going to give you about 10 percent the best way to repair your guns is to go to a technician and pay the little bit of money these things here would normally cost around about upwards of about ten thousand twenty thousand rubles to buy but generally if you're just got your gun down to about the uh only before I repaired my gun's getting pretty close to my games it's pretty close to 70 odd percent I'll go there and I'll go and pay for this gun it'll be around about four thousand five thousand to repair a rifle a little bit different pricing but um depending on the gun itself it's going to end up being way cheaper but it is advised to go through and just carry one of these with you so just so that you know you don't need to buy all of these different types and stuff like that they all do still come with their different weight levels and stuff as you can see and white in stalker plays a pretty big part so I'm just going to bring this in I'm going to bring in a progress handling handgun cleaning kit and I'll bring in several of these so that you can see there is a damage system on the guns as well that's what these lines are okay bring our gun number two see there's a little bit more profound damage to the gun bring out number three it's really prevalent now so you can see the condition of your gun as you're using it let's say I want to go through and repair you don't just go to the use button anymore what you've got to do is go to your specific gun that you wish to repair right click it and go down towards maintenance okay from here you can do numerous things so let's say I want to add some repair to the gun first so I'm going to repair it once and you can see it's up to 91 now but not exactly 10 but you know close enough or at least out in the field okay now once I've done that you can see that the dust level is still there and the lubrication still needs attending too okay so the second one that I would do or in most cases if you're out in the field and you don't have a repair kit first thing you would do is reclaim the gun you see here before 55. you see there it's now repaired I've gotten rid of all the dust level but the lubrication level's going down even further so now I'm going to need to lubricate the gun and I'll have to lubricate that twice if I want to bring it up to 100 didn't mean to do that maintenance lubricate the gun okay now in Desolation just so that you know before you level transfer if you repair your gun do the simple thing with all your weapons first okay I do it generally after I've done the gun and I've lubricated it what have you or I've gone and see the technician go through right click the gun and unload the gun bring it out and just reload it I'm just going to call this a save state so with desolation there's always going to be a stutter whenever you reload the gun when you first start an area that's why I'm trying to defeat that with this build but over time it gets a little bit worse he won't notice it but as you progressively go through and your gun takes further damage you're going to start stuttering when you're reloading the gun basically that's the Save State it's saving all the stats that are on the gun so that you can progress to the next area if if that's what's happening at the time okay so make sure whenever you've done any work to your gun make sure you at least unload it or in my case since I'm not running magazines buy a shot and reload if you want to do it quickly or if you've got magazines active just simply press the R button and reload and put in a fresh magazine to further weapon maintenance I've gone through and I've fired the third gun a fair few times more a lot of jams just to demonstrate this so you still see the max condition is at 88. okay just to demonstrate a few things now if I was to pull this gun out here and grab the multi-tool and put it over there and go to this this disassemble the gun it's not going to work it's not active with this mod at the moment generally your guns will degrade over time and there's nothing you can do about that okay generally it means once your max condition is going down to a certain level you can't do anything about it you have to go and purchase a new weapon I'll be lucky enough to pick up one that's better than the one you've got okay depending on what loot system that you're running so let's say I went through and I go down towards Mangan so we're here at Mangum I go through I go to repair the gun I get him to repair it it's going to cost me eleven thousand at its current condition I go through and say yes okay you see the max condition is brought it up to 88 percent you see that a lot of the damage that was on the gun it's no longer there it looks almost clean again now just to reiterate that put some rounds in this okay now if I was to go through and take out this Barrel right and put in a new Barrel it's not going to do anything it's overall Max condition is good but the ivory sorry the overall condition is good but the max condition is still 88. an 88 represents the condition of the overall gun itself and it's not really a great deal that you can do about repairing them let's say I go through and I'll just give this another hit with the cleaner I'll go through and I'll give this two hits with the lubrication okay now that gun is good let's say I go through and repair with my iron gun kid it's not going to do anything okay so just know that taking care of your gun is probably the biggest thing you can do but it is still the beta okay so looking after your gun truly means with this mod your gun will look after you if there are other ways of repairing it I'm not aware of it or getting it back it's its original Max condition what I understand right now your max condition will always go down all you're doing is trying to beat time so generally in a playthrough it's probably advised to just spend that little bit of money to have multiple uh copies or multiple um weapons of the weapons you like all right this section is to help you put together your gun okay I'm gonna bring in some demonstrations of weapons so I'm going to grab the mp153 for the AEK I'm going to bring in that Glock all right let me just rearrange these guns you've already seen the Glock it's a fresh block np153 and the AEK first gun I'm going to grab parts for it and that'll be the Glock now if I go to find the Glock I usually find it by the list here okay for those of you who know Silhouettes pretty easy and you're going to come across these things I'm going to utilize this for the Glock because there's some parts I don't know the name of in here I haven't really spent the time to find it foreign barrels that can be put into it this one is a different color one actually I'll just bring them all in so I can show you okay you see there it's got like a different color to it so if I was to pull this Barrel out of here which is the standard Barrel I'll put this colored Barrel in there let's see now if I bring the sun if the clouds aren't going overhead see it sort of brings a different color to the ejection Port of the gun it looks a little bit different a little bit more flashier if you like that type of thing but in this case here you can see that there's no thread on the outside you can't put a silencer on the gun or anything else like that so if I pull out that Barrel and I'll put in this one here which was the long barrel or upgraded Barrel I'll put that in there you can now see that there's a thread there that I can actually put a silencer on this gun all right let's go through and grab the other parts of the gun like I said I don't know uh the actual name of the gun so I'm actually going to use the Silhouettes for it okay so here I've got two different silences for the weapon in the case of the Glock there's a certain silencer that you want to use for that Glock and I'll show you that now with most pistols the only thing you can really put on there is a universal bracket now how I find the universal bracket is I look for these two things here the mount 45 degrees left and the mount 45 degrees right pretty easy sort of silhouette to find right next to it to the right is the universal bracket even if you put the other two mods on there the dos and the yard up you'll still find these three together but that'll be somewhere else in the list okay so I'm going to grab the universal bracket I'm going to grab a light this one's the easiest to find it's right down the bottom grab a light for it then I'm going to grab a site and I like to use the Trijicon has a cobra sight on there and I love the Cobra site for reference that's the sorry that's not the thing eh that's the Cobra side there that's the were you oh yeah the okp the funny looking one all right now in the case of silences for this particular gun this is the standard silencer if I was to put that on the gun aim down sights you can see that the silencer itself has blurred out the the iron sights for the weapon okay sometimes you need to keep an eye out for those things let's take the silencer off and I'm going to put on the inverted or the offset silencer not inverted you see now I could sort of see the sides a little bit clearer even though the silencer itself is still blocking it it's a little bit cleaner all right now I'm going to put on the universal bracket and you can see here I've got eight slots up top and I had two slots down the bottom now you can put a laser on there or you could put a light on down the bottom there but when you're putting it on you need to just keep an eye out for a few things so let's put grab the torch and I'll put it on the gun itself and you can see it comes up with two options what we're looking for is the Picker too so that's down the bottom you see here sometimes it doesn't show on the gun properly well that's still work in progress the files to grab go outside and debug mode and have a look it seems come up pretty well some amazing work by the team it really is amazing work now if I grab the site I can put that on top you see now it's on top of the gun because it's eight you can actually put a much larger side on there you just got to keep an eye out for how many slots it takes most of these sites will tell you but if you use the other two mods some sites on there won't tell you how big they are how large they are it just comes down to trial and error so usually just save before you go buying a part if you're going to do a legit run or if you're debugging in all of your gear to have fun just got to keep an eye out for it just play around till you find the one that you like but in most cases here with the standard desolation they're going to tell you straight up this one here length of sight Mount four divisions magnification one times just to reiterate quickly go through and I'm going to press six and then nine okay and it's activated the site that's not the proper site though okay so if that happens all you need to do is just right click again all right and then right click again and now I've got the Cobra site which is the site I like let me go through and line it up just like I said most of these are out of whack around about there now should be spot on then if I wanted to move this out a little bit more now the mp-153 reason why I grabbed that is because over here by the list you will not find an mp153 all right so if I go down to m and look through here you will not see an MP 153 okay however if you take away the MP and just go with for the 153 there is a 153 up the top here where all the numbers are here it is the mp153 selection I'm not going to go about modding this weapon out too much but I'll grab some of the parts that are here upgraded Barrel grip buffer mag and let's grab a random M4 stock that one there all right let's pull apart all the parts off the gun you can see here there's the gun everything's been pulled off all right so let's grab that upgraded barrel and Chuck that on first see it's got a longer Barrel on there now so the thread on the end go through and grab the buffer so here see here this is the handle and that accepts a buffer tube so the most common thing that people come across they don't know where the buffer tube is if you go by the list and you go down to AR15 you're going to find this section here it's the easiest way to find it AR15 buffer click on that and you'll now have a buffer tube for the gun okay just there if I grab that stock that I picked up the sr25 stock put that on bye you can now put AR15 stocks onto the gun each stock has different variable stats ergonomics or stability or what have you so you can go through and find those and have fun with that now let me go through and put the plus four magazine on there I'm going to put this tactical hand guard on there all right and then I'm going to put this Barrel cover for the mp153 you see you've got a large selection of Picatinny slots there and where you want to put your particular sights you've also got a left and underneath one that's for a handle and there's the other side all right that's the mp153 just give me a second I'm going to put these guns away and we're going to go to the AEK okay the AEK now this AEK has already got a couple of components honor I'm going to pull apart everything so that I'm down to the base gun so I don't go confusing myself I'm going to go through and just Chuck these parts off the edge and let a rostock all right now we can go through and find the parts now there is a section for the AEK up top here more there we go here's all the parts for the AEK now the AEK is a specific gun so you need to grab specific components um I think rdap or DUS I only say both the same time because I'm unsure as to which is which sometimes sometimes they've got them all named and sometimes they don't but I am running a particular mod that I always run called The Rail riser very simple little mod and adds some very very good uh components that are very good if you want to if you just want to modify base desolation all right so I'm going to grab the barrel because there's only one of those this is the handguard this here is the barrel cover I'm going to call it the barrel cover it's probably not what it is I think it's a gas chip on an AK this is the cover it's a Picatinny rail cover I'm going to grab both the muzzle and the silencer here and I'm going to grab the stock buffer tube okay that's all the parts that I can grab here and what else I'm going to grab as well is I'm going to grab myself a stock the heavy stock I like this stock but if you wanted to you want to go flash like I did in my previous video I went with this one here okay now I'm going to need a 45 degree angle for this particular build just to show you how I got all the parts okay and then I'm going to need a raw Riser component so if you have a look up here you've got two two similar ones to the left and right this one here is the left side this one here is the right side these are the extensions okay I'm going to grab this assault handle here if I go down more if it lets me all right I'm going to grab a light now there are other lasers here and these are the lasers here you can grab a red a green or a blue however in my case here I've grabbed this one here the Tactical am Liza um and I think that was I know the sites so again I'm going to grab the Acog and I'm going to grab the Kemper okay which is this one here now I'm gonna go start putting this gun together all right so first of all Barrel when you're going through you need to put these guns together in a certain way otherwise the game won't let you put certain components or Parts on I'm going to grab the specific buffer tube for the AEK and put that on let's just have a look at it next I'm going to put on the handle down the bottom of the hand guard this is the Picatinny gas tube cover all right and this is the dust cover 18 divisions on it as well as that I'm going to put this stock on you see the gun components are there now just so that you're mindful in case you're not aware I'm running the game in DirectX 11 which allows me to see this picture if you run it DirectX 10 you won't see this you'll see a gun that's off to the side and you'll have to do everything by touch and feel or knowledge when you're putting your gun back together it won't actually show you all right now what I'm going to do now is grab a 45 degree angle no I'm not sorry I'm going to grab the ACOG first I'm going to put that on the gun and put it on the dust cover I'm going to put it right up towards me which is zero so zero is closest to you nine is away from you okay so if I was to put on the nine you'll see that it's almost right at the end of the picatinny rail yeah so let's pull that off and put that closest towards me I'm going to grab the 45 degree angle mount and I'm going to put that on the dust cover just after the site itself okay you see it sitting there okay now I'm going to put the rail extension on because the camper site takes eight divisions the 45 degree only allows you four divisions okay so I'm going to put the rail Extender on to the 45 degree mount attach that you can see here if I turn this gun around you see it's extended it this is why I use that particular mod it just makes things a little bit better and a little bit uh cooler if you use the other two mods you're going to have way more access to a lot more stuff but it's going to be very technical and it may be a little bit harder for people who may just come in for the game okay now just so that you remember I'm going to press six and then nine and it's now lined up the site now I can press nine to switch between the two sides let's say I want to keep it there even though this site doesn't work as I've demonstrated but I'm going to change this one I'm going to move this out a little bit more so it's just a little bit cleaner when I flip between the two right they're all lined up so let's move on to the next components I'm going to put a silencer on this AEK let's see the silencer is now there I'm going to put this laser onto the gas tube cover all right I'm going to put that around about the five and you see there looks pretty clean it's not going to happen with this gun however sometimes when you're putting your components on the gun the order is kind of crucial I'm running a stealth mod in my game so when I activate my components which is the Z button um you want to make sure that you're not going to activate your torch by accident so it's imperative to keep an eye out for what side of the gun that you're putting this mod on so this is the left hand side and that's the right hand side there okay so let's say I put this onto the left because it doesn't really matter in this case I put this onto the left hand side of the gun all right the top part of the gun is still considered number one on this particular gun and then number two if I press Z again it's going to be the flashlight and if I press C again it's going to get rid of the laser and then it's going to get rid of the light so that c basically follows a sequential order for how you activate your particular attachments of the gun itself all right and it all depends on what you want to do with your particular parts and components I don't really like seeing the torch there just down to a preferential thing if I go down to find where the torture is there I might put it on the right hand side so it's out of the way it's on there but sometimes that order can be crucial so let's say I take that Top End Laser off here I go down and I grab this laser here now I'm going to go through and put that laser on the left hand side of the gun and you'll see that it's still following that order of activation let's say I go through and I take those two off and I put the torch on the left hand side and then I put the laser on the right hand side now torch turns on first and then the laser so until such a time that maybe they add in some the devs add in some keys for separate attachment Parts according to the left or right side of the gun don't imagine that would happen because there's some components that have just too many Picatinny slots on the left and right but right now as you can see it just follows a sequential order now sometimes that laser can be a little bit off or in this case it can be right on but if I was to fire that one round you see how the laser is pretty much spot on almost anyway this is the AK that I'm running at the moment uh probably going to change up the guns again but um and then I'm going to release these little videos just little ones to help you put the guns together but I think I've covered pretty much everything to help you out to get started um yeah
