There is only one mech at the moment and even that one doesn't spawn automatically by default, you will have to spawn it manually through entity spawner menu (with debug mode enabled). It's just for tests for now, but could eventually turn into something more by third party modders. By default with NPCMod installed, faction based attacks are in place and the mech itself is set to Whiteriver faction, which means that by default it is friendly to players, but just like any other Whiteriver faction member will attack enemies such as zombies, aggressive animals and bandits, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game never loads. Sits on "Creating Player" Any idea what I'm doing wrong? It's a new map and a new save. Also tried to load this onto a server with a fresh map and save and the server itself loads but I get stuck connecting with an error pulling configs. Thanks for the help What mods are in your Mods folder? Please link your log file so we can see whats happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked in the logs before sending it to you and it looks like when I turned off ECA on my server it somehow got enabled on my client side. The issue is resolved now. Thanks.

xyth Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 New build, compatible with A20.1 What's new? HUGE gains in efficiency! You can now have those mega battles you wanted. NPCs take about the same computer resources as vanilla zeds, with vastly greater functionality and AI. New templates, basic versions for highest efficiency when you wouldnt plan on hiring and commanding those NPCs, advanced for when you want it all. Many bug fixes, will update the list later. Enjoy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktrain Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Also, in the raidergurlzpack, in entityclasses.xml, you have several instances of: <property name="Names" value="Jayne, Hedy, Gina, Betty, Gypsy, Molly Straight Jacket, Halie Numbers, Kyra the Beast, Pegleg Mandy, Fast Fingers Sonya, Rusty Rylee, Samara MadEye, Jazmine Ghost, Crazy Breonna, OneEye Jaelyn, Pickpocket Samantha, Eve The Brute, Rusty Cora, Elena Nine Lives" /> should be: <property name="Names" value="Jayne, Hedy, Gina, Betty, Gypsy, Molly Straight Jacket, Halie Numbers, Kyra the Beast, Pegleg Mandy, Fast Fingers Sonya, Rusty Rylee, Samara MadEye, Jazmine Ghost, Crazy Breonna, OneEye Jaelyn, Pickpocket Samantha, Eve The Brute, Rusty Cora, Elena Nine Lives" /> removing the line ending and extra tabs inside the quotes... it's hard to see with the forums word wrapping...

Hi. I maintain the friendly raider gurlz. I'm sorry for trouble. Long story short, sometimes updates of the base mods break working code of the mods that depend on them. I'll have to take a look at friendly raider gurlz and see what can be done to make them work again in this new version. Thank you for your patience.

xyth Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 Please keep in mind this mod is very complex, and is a work in progress. We are not getting much feedback on how it plays, but are fixing issues as we see them when streamers play with it enabled. The more feedback we get, the faster this mod will be "stable" for long term play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Target health bar? Are you using special mod that displays it? SCore was enabling health bars by default, but it was reverted in one of the latest versions, so if you're definitely not using a specific mod for this, you're probably not using the latest version of SCore and in that case, you should update it to take advantage of the latest features including performance improvements and various fixes including important fix that helps to prevent the infamous bug (well in most cases anyway) which causes NPCs to fall through the ground, making you lose hired NPCs forever.

I have JaxTeller718 NormalZombieRageRemoval and WorkingDevices mods as well as KHA20 DangerousCities and HeadshotsOnly. No crashes or errors...NPCs move and shoot just fine... Edit 1: I tried without those mods, still doesn't work. Edit 2: Only Baker doesn't seem to work. Tried with the Nurse and it went fine...

xyth Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) I can add hireable versions of both, but the core was intended as a template for modders to follow as an example, not as a complete mod in itself. I could add a set of hireable Bakers if he's a popular model, but with all the hireable characters in the expansion pack, why would you want a baker hireling that cant bake yet? Harley could be hireable if you had a good relationship with bandits, but that's out of scope for this core, that will happen in mods made by other folks. 18 hours ago, ktrain said: Looking great so far!

The guns are pure vanilla, so is the sounds. The NPC guns should be no louder than player guns. I dont use a target health bar so I have no information on what you are seeing or not seeing. Example would help. Harley Quinn is loud and obnoxious, the sound files are from a voice actor and not pitch adjusted. Like on the guns, feel free to turn your sound volume down, or remove her from spawning. That said, if I get multiple requests to lower her volume a few db, I can do that.

Can you turn her into a screamer? i mean she is very loud, very obnoxious, so she should be attracting zombies for miles around. So is it feasible to give her screamer properties despite not being a zombie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the last time baker tried to bake, we started seeing burnt zombies. He may not be the best baker, but he must have been doing something right, since he became so popular.

You guys have put a LOT of excellent effort into these modules. I'm enjoying them. I appreciate the amount of time you have taken to get these things up and running in a straight-forward, easy-to-use manner. Also, no bully on baker. He flunked out of culinary school before the apocalypse. Nurse Ratchet was about to have her nursing certificate revoked. And the soldiers spent their first months in a bunker playing nothing but CS:GO. It all makes sense if you think about it. 23 hours ago, mr.devolver said: 2-RaiderGurlzPack_Friendly is now updated for a new version of NPCCore. Enjoy!
