[Modded EXEs] Luna's Master Disassembly List & Parts Fix v2.1.3 addon - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

Current version: v2.1.3 (12/16/2023)

Currently supported addons:

• Boomsticks & Sharpsticks 10/02/2022 Moddb.com
• Weapon Parts Overhaul v1.13.2 Github.com

When it comes to addons that add new weapons or outfits, it's inevitable that you'll find a few guns or outfits that you simply cannot disassemble, and this can be rather frustrating when it's a rather common item like an AK74-U or cheap gas mask. Thankfully for us all, I've already taken the time to go through the available weapons and add all the missing parts, letting you disassemble any and all weapons and outfits.

I personally use this with the "Weapon Parts Overhaul" addon by artifax Moddb.com. Their addition of the field stripping mechanic makes it easier to maintain rare weapons like the P90, letting you hot swap parts out as needed for individual repairs instead of either paying absurd prices at the mechanic or having to find and disassemble a second rare weapon solely for the parts.

The Parts Fix is a second aspect of the MDL that swaps around some of the weapon parts that may have been added with incorrect parts, like a magazine-fed sniper that uses a bolt carrier designed for magazine-less shotguns; addons that add a duplicate weapon with different parts than their counterpart, or just to match an ingame gun's parts with the real one. Weapons with the same base name should have the same or similar parts, with parts changing if it matches the lore of the weapon.

I've changed the major issues with some of B&S's weapons having interesting part combinations, as well as a few others that stuck out to me. I've also gone through and added brand new custom parts to weapons that didn't have appropriate parts, including the Gauss Gun. Over time I'll go through and inspect more weapons to see if their parts make sense or not and make updates as needed.

I've drastically cut down on the confusion of the old installer and have limited it down to only two options. The full version contains the custom-made parts with WPO compatibility and will be the main version that receives new updates and content. The lite version only updates the vanilla game and BaS with vanilla weapon parts. Both versions utilize DLTX so it should be much more future-proof than before. The Lite version in particular should never become incompatible, so that will always be available should the Full version get outdated.

Modded Exes is required for this mod to work and is what allows it to be as malleable as it is with other addons by using DLTX and DXML. You can grab the Modded Exes Engine here Github.com. You will also need Mod Organizer 2 to use the installer.

1. Follow the installer's instructions
2. Place the addon AFTER Weapon Parts Overhaul if you have it

Have an addon that you want supported by the MDL? Have a recommendation of a gun you want fixed in the Parts Fix? Leave a comment with the name of the addon/gun, and I'll see about getting it included. My end goal is to support as many addons as possible, so please send me as many as you want!

My addon should be compatible with any other addon by this point unless it also expands part pieces and uses the same part names as me. I will eventually go through and change all the internal names to something more unique to this addon (assuming the custom name types don't blow up the game lol), and will be looking for ways to further stabilize this addon and make it as compatible as possible. I'll most likely end up changing some of the parts later on down the line if I find anything weird that doesn't really fit, but that will take some time for research and creating new parts if I have to.

I've also been considering looking at G.A.M.M.A. to see if there's anything missing there that I can help contribute to, but I honestly don't have the computer space for a second installation of Anomaly with a shitton of mods at the moment lol. Maybe some time down the road after I feel more satisfied with the stability of the MDL I'll look at what's available in the G.A.M.M.A. modpack.

With all that mind though, I do work full time and most of my free time is spent with friends, so I don't really dedicate much time to a single-player game like STALKER. I'll check back in every now and then to see if there's anything I need to update, but the mod should be stable enough as it is right now.

• If you have either type of FN Five-seveN when installing the addon with WPO, it will not be updated to have a spring and will crash when trying to repair it on a vice. It also will refuse to have the correct spring inserted into it. The same may also apply to the P90, although I'm not 100% sure. This is an issue with WPO specifically, so I do not know how to fix it yet. Only workaround at the moment is to get a new Five-seveN.

Changelog

• v2.1.3
  • Separated the WPO files from the Full version into it's own optional patch folder.
  • Because the WPO files were inherently intrinsic so the Full version, they were causing an error in the rare case that the one WPO script file I had would be called by another addon. The script file itself was fine, but it required several dependencies from the WPO mod in order to work. While there hasn't been any actual changes to LMDL's code, separating the WPO files into an optional patch for the Full version should help prevent any callback errors to unused or nonexistent files for people who don't use WPO.
• v2.1.2
  • Fixed the encoding for the Russian version. Text should now be properly legible. Thanks to ZeD_MnizD for locating the issue and resolution.
• v2.1.1
  • Fixed a fatal typo with the Russian version of the addon for the WPO DXML files. Thanks to MoreLove1 and MrDemonized for locating it.
• v2.1.0
  • Converted all XML files to use DXML instead, again cutting back on any unnecessary dependencies and potential conflicts with WPO.
  • Created new a DLTX version of part_prices.ltx from WPO.
  • Trimmed the parts list for both versions to remove all unused references to BaS. They now only contain entries that I've personally changed.
  • Drathalis's list of helmet parts has been included with the addon and is available in both versions.
  • The new update does have the new helmet parts added, but was mostly for stabilizing the addon even more. As it stands right now, the Full version should only become incompatible if WPO changes zzzz_arti_jamming_repairs.script (can't dynamically change Lua script files yet) or in the VERY rare case that someone else decides to make custom parts and uses the same part names as me. I may update the names in the future to make them more unique to this mod to severely reduce the chances of that conflict happening, but I wanted to push this update out as soon as I could. With 2.1.0, all weapons and armor in the vanilla game have parts now and should serve as a good base for me to build off of.
• v2.0.0
  • Addon has been completely built from the ground up again with BaS and WPO in mind
  • Improved overall stability, made the installation process much easier (for both you and me), and future-proofed the addon much more than it was before.
  • Trader Overhaul compatibility has been temporarily removed since it is no longer with BaS and I haven't included it in my own play session. Due to the nature of DLTX, there should be no interference with Trader Overhaul's outfits as they have their own parts.
  • The Gauss gun no longer inherently depends on having BaS in order to work
  • Removed the ability to have parts on the quest version of the Gauss gun.
    • I was not sure if I could make a stable version of the quest version, so it will stay as its vanilla version to avoid any errors.
  • Icons for custom parts are now properly separated and should have no interference with other icon addons.
  • It's been a long time, I know. Thank you for your patience. I fell out of interest with Stalker and ended up getting a full time job. Not sure how it happened, but I suddenly was hit with a mix of manic productiveness and a long-standing sense of regret for not keeping my addon up-to-date, so I spent roughly 20 hours over the past 2 days relearning Stalker Anomaly, MO2, modding, and even my own addon! I'm rather pleased that I managed to get it into a working state for everyone, and I hope y'all enjoy my work with this.
• v1.6.0
  • Adopted the use of ravenascendant's Icon Override Moddb.com to remove the overwriting of ui_icon_equipment.dds
  • Updated the parts for the Default Parts version of the Gauss Rifle to use the 12.7x55mm barrel instead of the 7.62mm barrel [V]
  • Created two new parts: 5.7x28 pistol spring, .338 barrel
  • New parts added to the following weapons:
    • FN Five-seveN
    • DVL-10 Saboteur
    • L96 AWSM
    • M24 SRS "Green Dragon"

  • The Gauss Rifle can now be repaired with repair kits and at a mechanic's vice
  • Created brand new custom parts for the following weapons:
    • SR1M pistol series
    • P90
    • Gauss Rifle (BaS and quest ver)
  • Due to the custom parts replacing a rather common file, ui_icon_equipment.dds, I've added options to not use the custom parts. You still get the normal part fixes, but anything that would have used the custom parts will be replaced with appropriate base game substitute parts.
• v1.4.0
  • DLTXified the addon and added separate DLTX version
  • Original addon files kept as the Normal version (not to be confused with the discontinued older normal version which featured no part fixes)
  • Alphabetized all weapons and outfits for easier reading
  • Corrected/Updated parts for the following weapons
    • Ash-12
    • Groza and Groza_nimble
    • HK417
    • MK14 EBR
    • Scar series (base game and B&S)
    • FAL series (base game and B&S)
    • Type63
    • SR-25
• v1.3.0
  • Added compatibility for Provak's Weapon Overhaul v2.4
  • Corrected some parts on all FALs
• v1.2.0
  • Temporarily removed the Normal version
  • Added compatibility for the BaS 28-Nov-21 version
  • Added compatibility for Trader Overhaul Complete v1.29.1
  • I've temporarily removed the normal version from the addon for the time being to cut back on time spent working on the addon. If there are people who prefer the normal version, I'll consider re-adding it with the newer updates.
• v1.1.0
  • Added the Parts Fix version
  • Fixed the trigger part for FN Five-seveN
  • Alphabetized the "BaS" weapons list in the code for easier reading
• v1.0.1
  • Added a spring part to the FN Five-seveN
  • Changed P90 barrel to use FN Five-seveN barrel
  • The P90 and Five-seveN are in an awkward place with their parts. Aside from the general parts used in each weapon's subtype, only the Five-seveN has a correct barrel part for its calibre. I considered using a 5.56mm barrel for the P90 as it was close enough to its actual calibre, but decided on just using the pistol barrel instead. It's got the right calibre in the name, and the weapons are unique enough that you shouldn't notice it in a normal playthrough. The Five-seveN was also given a 7.62mm spring, which is currently only shared by the TT-33. While not accurate to the real gun, this should help retain the part's rarity as well as giving the TT-33 another option for repairs.
• v1.0.0
  • Base addon released
  • Added missing weapon parts for B&S
