By the way, I just hired NPCBaker, one of those poor NPCs that only have 200 points of health out of 800 for some reason and I clicked "tell me about yourself" and nothing happened.

Two things should happen when you have Tell Me About Yourself: a tool tip should pop up, taking up most of the screen, and writing out to the console. That's handled through the SDX_EntityAliveSDX mod. The dialog option is handled by the aui_Dialog.

It almost sounds like there's a mismatch. You can have the option in the dialog, but the script will ignore it if its unknown.

I will test this on a clean copy. Maybe it didn't update properly. Usually when things seem to work on a clean copy, I copy the files to the game that already contains my favorite mods. Sometimes I get too excited though and that's when I try the modded game right away. This was the case, so I will check if it works on a clean copy of the game and I will let you know.

no worries. I re-tested the vehicle / hand blur, and it seems to only happen if the vehicle moves. Must be something that is out of sync. Were you ever able to recover from it, aside from logging out and back in? I tried a few things, but no dice.

Well, when I was focusing on this bug, I only tested it with 4x4 truck, so originally I though it happens only with some vehicles and I also thought that it happens only when the vehicle moves, but then it happened to me even when the 4x4 truck was not moving - I just entered and left the car (NPCAmmo was near) and I ended up with blurry hands.

Today it happened to me even with bicycle, so it seems like it could be any vehicle and whether you actually drive it or not, it doesn't matter. Once you enter the vehicle, you are likely encounter that bug. It happened to me even when NPC was not around and even when I didn't have any hired NPC. As for the way of recovering from this, unfortunately besides exitting the game and loading it again, nothing worked so far.

 
So I tested this new version on a clean copy of the game and now it shows some info when I click "tell me about yourself", I don't know why it didn't show anything before. Maybe I should have started a new world for that update? Anyway, I just wanted to ask, did you disable casino token check? Because now I can hire NPCAmmo for free lol

I wonder if it has to do with that animator layer warning we get when we open up the dialog option.

They should still cost money. I'm not that generous :) Does the message show -1, or does it show 1000 but doesn't take money from your stack?

It shows 1000 like usually, but takes 0 lol, of course I took advantage of it and now I'm travelling with nurse, Harley Quinn, and I've also put the army guy from Dark's pack and before you ask, they took 0 casino coins even before I added that pack, I just thought like if they go with me out of their good heart, I may as well just go with it :p

EDIT:

Something weird just happened. Harley Quinn I was talking about seems like she lost her bat. She does her usual animations of attack, but with no bat in her hands. I met another Harley and she already has the bat in her hands.

Sphereii, I updated EntityAlive SDX and it didn't work, then I manually deleted EntityAlive SDX mod folder and downloaded a new copy of it and only then the update actually worked. It seems like Mod Launcher doesn't properly update the mods that are already installed.

I'll do another code review of the modlet downloading. I know it's not perfect, but has worked in all my tests.

We've been testing the hand glitch, and have not been able to reproduce it with the cows from Bloom's. Can anyone help confirm that the bug does not happen when a cow is nearby?

I wouldn't mind to test, but so far I've never seen a cow in 7 days to die when I had that mod enabled. Not sure if automatic spawning even works, but to reproduce the hand glitch, it should be easy if it works the same way as with NPCs - just spawn the cow near 4x4, enter the vehicle and get out. What's the cow's name in the list of entities? I might spawn one manually and do some testing for you.

 
I was able to remove the bug by moving one AI target back to vanilla so have narrowed down the bug hunt. Stay tuned.

Sorry, I'd meant to post yesterday that I had tested it with the cows and couldn't reproduce the glitch. I spaced it all off and went to bed hehe

 
Updated the SDX Repos with the blurry hands fix, along with some other code clean ups.

The SDX_EntityAlive mod was missing a dependency on the AnimationSDX, so the mod launcher didn't prompt that as a requirement. I added that as a dependency as well.
