Masked Enemy Overhaul (New Update)

[radiant venture]

when testing with friends, we noticed it would usually mimic the appearance of one person per day and it tended to be me (host). is this intended or did we just get unlucky?

[peak geyser]

Readme is still 2.2.0

[peak geyser]

Ended up having a funny moment with this happening to my gf and she almost got grabbed by the imposter because with skinwalkers it copied my voice and said "Are you real?" so she let her guard down. My friend came up and started beating the hell out of it with a shovel and killed it as she saw the real me coming up the hallway

Wish she was recording it all I got was the aftermath

[wise pond]

It's almost done!
I feel like this mod goes really well with this haha. I will likely push this update tomorrow.
I can see this tripping so many people up with the masked enemy overhaul mod 🙂

[peak geyser]

We use TooManyEmotes whenever we see each other to show we're real. It's always so funny seeing someone tpose to show off

[wise pond]

Hahaha yeah, same. Now you'll never know who to trust!

[winter thicket]

looks awesome, cant wait to use it!

[peak geyser]

Dude I hadn't even watched that, wth

[winter thicket]

unlucky i hope, it randomly selects a player based on the amount of players in the lobby. when i tested it i had masked spawn in with both skins (i had two players total in the lobby)

[radiant venture]

we were playing with 5, apocalypse starts and i see 4 clones of myself outside on vow chasing us around the ship. its not like it was always like that, sometimes they were other ppl in the lobby and other times they were the basic player model with no cosmetics and the default suit. i think it was probably just dumb luck, but the mod itself is REALLY great

[winter thicket]

it used to select only one skin per day, but i pushed an update to fix that yesterday

or i guess two days ago

thursday night

[radiant venture]

oh yeah we played a few days ago, i guess probably before the update so that would make sense LOL

[winter thicket]

also unfortunately cosmetics do not work with the mod atm 😦

[radiant venture]

is it also supposed to have a chance of just being the vanilla player model? we encountered that quite a few times despite none of us having it

[winter thicket]

i mentioned it on this thread before but its not something i can fix

[peak geyser]

Like as of recent update? Because it was working with morecompany cosmetics

[radiant venture]

i find that odd seeing as they definitely were working some of the time

[peak geyser]

At least on my save it was

[radiant venture]

same here

[winter thicket]

if they have the default suit on when the masked spawns it would have the default, if no one has the default then maybe it bugs on the id and it goes to default

cosmetics only work when the masked eats another player, or when the masked walks into or out of the building

[radiant venture]

ah, thats why we saw it working outside then

[winter thicket]

so the ones that naturally spawn that mimic someone do not have cosmetics, but as soon as they walk outside they spawn in

[peak geyser]

Not true, one of the masked men that spawned had spawned looking like one of our players to begin with and had all the cosmetics and suit

[radiant venture]

if its doing an update check when it goes through the entrance doors that applies the cosmetics, why not run the check when they spawn in?

[winter thicket]

all i know is it is very buggy

[radiant venture]

or is it more of an unintended check

[winter thicket]

i dont have access to the cosmetics through my mod so i dont do the check, its morecompany that does it

[peak geyser]

Idk it was working fairly consistently in my games, enough that it definitely got several us over multiple matches

[winter thicket]

i brought it up with mod developer but i didnt push the need for a fix. i cant fix it myself, it would have to be him

but yes the idea is just having a check on spawn would fix the issue

[radiant venture]

yeah, i only noticed morecompany cosmetics not being correctly added a couple times, and i felt it added to the charm of the mimic

it reminded me of the alternates from mandella catalogue, how they had the slight imperfections

its not a bug its a feature!

[winter thicket]

i was about to say that haha

but maybe more company did fix it, i havent played recently but this is the newest update they did

[peak geyser]

That definitely must've been it

[winter thicket]

they mightve added a check for cosmetics that makes it work more often. since last time i played the cosmetics did not really work at all

but W

[peak geyser]

I was playing with both mods 2 days ago and it was definitely working as we wanted

[radiant venture]

ill try it out tomorrow and let yknow

[peak geyser]

Big W

[radiant venture]

im pretty sure its working perfectly now

[winter thicket]

🕺

[radiant venture]

i feel like really unique work like this should be praised more lol

really sick mod, loved playing with the apocalypses on the scp DunGen mod

[peak geyser]

The masked men not being able to use cosmetics items or moded suits made them a non issue, so with this mod they singlehandedly became a MASSIVE problem especially in my lobbies with 14 people

[winter thicket]

thank you both for the kind words! im glad so many people are enjoying it

[radiant venture]

oh my goodness 14 people with this mod would be a nightmare

LMAO

[peak geyser]

It so is

[radiant venture]

it combines really well with the skinwalkers mod for sure, and i do appreciate you not changing the ai, as another mod is currently in development that changes the ai MASSIVELY and i really want them to both be compatible when it releases :p

[winter thicket]

I saw that one today. looks dope, but yeah I wanted my mod to be as compatible as possible so I only touched the visuals and as few of the spawn settings as possible

[radiant venture]

one thing i noticed is sometimes the arms on the mimics get very stiff, i know that its replacing the much more obvious zombie arms, but is this planned to be changed to move more like the player?

[peak geyser]

And it's perfect. Would've been cool if the masked fix was built in but that's why we've got other mods

[peak geyser]

I mean shit you saw the too many emotes integration right?

[peak geyser]

.

[radiant venture]

LOL

now i have

nvm this right here

[peak geyser]

Between that and skinwalkers and this? Masked men have personality now

[timber thunder]

This would be really funny without context

[vagrant hull]

@winter thicket if Player Die by Drowing / Sandquick. the Mimics models gone i mean disappers and the mimics can't kill player

[winter thicket]

🫡 not sure when I’ll have time to fix it, if I ever do. my current fix/recommendation would be to uh not do that

https://tenor.com/view/dont-die-okay-just-dont-die-remember-mila-kunis-spy-who-dumped-me-gif-11839064

[winter thicket]

hello again, someone reached out today and offered a pretty nice idea so i thought id throw an update out in between everything. the update adds a new config which reveals the mask right before the masked attacks. i think this is a neat alternative to always being killed by someone with no mask. it is off by default but figured i would let yall know if that was something you were hoping to see or whatever. Thank yall for the love and support 🫡

[normal sluice]

is it known that morecompany cosmetics are broken inside the facility

[winter thicket]

sí

I’ve mentioned it a few times here. it’s not something I can fix

[normal sluice]

understandable. hope it gets resolved

[velvet summit]

This mod is funny asf I had a lobby of 12 people

And we all died to masked outside

And the 3 poor people who just got out of the company

Witnessed horrors

[celest wing]

army of jesters

[hasty raven]

@winter thicket can you add nametags copy as well and support for https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/taffyko/NameplateTweaks/ the voice above this maybe as you already copy a player suit and cosmetics a nametag would help

the voice would have to be for skinwalker i guess

nametags might be better voice seems difficult

[winter thicket]

what does that mod do? I haven’t seen it

does it just add the voice indicator?

I have for a while wanted to do nametags above the masked. I just don’t know the best way to do it yet

[hasty raven]

mostly focus on visibility and tracking voice with a visual indicator that can be disabled in config

since no nametags gives away masked enemies a lot

[winter thicket]

yeah the nametags is definitely something I want to do before I stop working on the mod. I keep saying it’ll be the next thing I do and then I get distracted 💀

[vagrant hull]

i always remove nametag when v40 cause for make my friend confuse

[hasty raven]

yeah i use Hideplayernames mod til a solution for this is done

[muted sapphire]

Yeah I also replaced NameplateTweaks with that for now lol, gonna be fun seeing how many of my friends die to mimics XD

[livid nexus]

@winter thicket Hello, respected HomelessGinger. I really like MaskedEnemyOverhaul, which has provided me and my friends with a better gaming experience. However, I have found an issue where it cannot mimic any clothing of the ModelReplacement API. Do you have any plans to add support for the ModelReplacement API? May you be happy
ModelReplacement API：https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/BunyaPineTree/ModelReplacementAPI/

[winter thicket]

i wouldnt even pretend to know how to do this rn. i can look into it, maybe itll help me find a workaround for cosmetics too. my thing is i dont know how to access other mods from my mod without it being a requirement but im sure there is a simple way. ill look before i head into work

[livid nexus]

Thank you

[normal sluice]

look into soft dependencies

[winter thicket]

i just did. i already finished the patch but im tuning up now. i realize that i misunderstood the creator of morecompany for his reason on using "setEnemyOutside" vs start, so i assumed it would not work / be buggy always due to how the game is coded (which is not very neatly). anyways, a slight adjustment in where my code was taking impact and the cosmetics loaded right in.

[normal sluice]

so cosmetics work inside now?

[winter thicket]

as far as im aware

i need to test on a nonhost machine, but im sure it works there too

[normal sluice]

that's awesome

i'm not sure if it's been mentioned before but has anyone experienced any issues with masked getting stuck beside vents

[winter thicket]

yeah im pretty sure its a vanilla thing. the masked are really dumb sometimes and just get stuck in a loop of staring at locations

in trying to test this mod the masked would often run right past me and then stand next to me staring into space without attacking

[normal sluice]

lmao

[winter thicket]

cosmetics should now work. update was just posted

[honest scaffold]

yippee

[muted sapphire]

Let's goooooo

[sinful zodiac]

need github

[livid nexus]

after installing Lethal Escape, I also encountered the problem of all monsters except Bracken only attacking the host

I have reported this issue to the author of Lethal Escape and I am not sure if it will be fixed

[winter thicket]

https://github.com/HomelessGinger/MaskedEnemyOverhaul

[sinful zodiac]

thx man

so you said cosmetics work now

[livid nexus]

Yes, I mean installing both MaskedEnemyOverloul and LethalEscape at the same time would cause this issue

[winter thicket]

yessir

[sinful zodiac]

nice

is it specific cosmetic mod

cause i use morecompany

[winter thicket]

yeah its only for more company

[normal sluice]

will cosmetics match with inherited suits?

like whichever player is being copied for the suit, will the cosmetics match that player too

[winter thicket]

yes

[normal sluice]

awesome

[brittle sigil]

Fantastic, the masked experience should be so seamless now can't wait to try it out

cheers on creating such a great mod

[peak geyser]

This guy WILL not stop before making the best MaskedMenOverhaul mod ever

[cloud trail]

the mod is client-side right?

[peak geyser]

should be, but much more fun when everyone has it

[cloud trail]

alr thanks

[muted sapphire]

I'm pretty sure it's server-side. I don't see how this mod could work if only 1 person in a whole group had it installed

Maybe it could be if you use the vanilla spawns I suppose

[peak geyser]

All it does is remove the mask for the most part

Probably some visual desync with the bodies

[winter thicket]

i know that the spawns are server side only (obviously) but when testing today i had masks on on one client and masks off on the other and it worked just fine

[sonic hull]

Has anyone else had a bug where a masked kills a player, and then that masked stays bugged in that position doing its "puking" animation? Along with that it spawned 2 masked, one based on the playermodel of the turned player, and one with the default suit despite no one in the lobby using that suit.

Posting it here bc it's new and one of the only recent changes I've made was updating this mod, but I'm not actually sure it's because of this mod. Could also just be incompatibility with another mod.

[winter thicket]

there are quite a few issues with masked with weird cases like that. i dont handle the spawning of the mask when they consume someone so my guess is that it is either desync or an incompatibility

[muted sapphire]

Nah when they spawn with the default suit that's when the game does a vanilla masked spawn

I've seen it happen once before, and there was no cosmetics when they walked outside either it's just a vanilla one spawning in lol

[winter thicket]

when the game spawns any masked, it is supposed to change the suit since i change the suit on start of any masked. the issue is that it spawns 2, and i am unsure if the 2nd is my fault or a bug

if possible, see if it happens again and try to screenshot the console of there is an error. the default game has a billion logs every minute so its a pain in the ass to scan though

[muted sapphire]

LogNeuter prevents that mess

QOL mod for real

[winter thicket]

i need that fr

[muted sapphire]

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/BlueAmulet/LogNeuter/

[sonic hull]

ty I'll check the log next time. It happened twice, but both times to a friend of mine so I didn't realize what had happened until I later found the bugged out masked. Curiously both my friends and I (host) could see the weird bugged masked, but for me he was vomiting, for them he was just standing still.

[astral arrow]

I had a mod idea where you can remove the mask from masked or dead masked friends and sell it, but i also though about adding a way to revive your friend when you take the mask out of it, maybe you could like it

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1193716737749815447

But idk how possible would that be

[spice crystal]

Just wanted top pop in and say i appreciate the work you put into this mod 🙂

[winter thicket]

it’s definitely possible, but I won’t be doing it with this mod. I want to try to only touch spawns and the visual aspect of the masked so it stays as compatible as possible. It’s a cool idea though

[winter thicket]

Thank you. Appreciate the kind words 🫡

[astral arrow]

Okay :3

[hasty raven]

• Fixed an issue which occurred when the masked enemy was interrupted while converting a player, which could result in the player becoming stuck or unable to move their mouse and sync position to other players
  LC Masked Fix

• Prevented a case where the masked enemy could create dozens of duplicates of the same player if that player was somehow not allowed to die, resulting in chaos

[spice crystal]

There's a mod that fixes this btw

[hasty raven]

no shit

read my message again

[spice crystal]

In case people wanna stick around on v45

[hasty raven]

i said o7 to that mod

well once mods are fixed i doubt anyone will stick to v45

that mod worked perfect and great though

[spice crystal]

Chill on the attitude my guy, I know you were reading patch notes, tho I was referring to a mod that fixes the issue

[hasty raven]

you are reaching im not angry or anything i just told you to re read my message to understand it

[spice crystal]

I understood it to begin with

[hasty raven]

no shit isnt a rude thing to say

but the way you replied it makes it look like i didnt know about the existance of the mod

thats why i said no shit and told you to read it again

[nocturne pike]

you didnt let him finish

lol

if you read his second message you wouldve realized what drake meant

[spice crystal]

Soooo how would re reading the message make it any different?

[hasty raven]

well to me it looked like you didnt understand it was fixed in v47

but then you added v45 later

[nocturne pike]

why does this matter so much to you
yall chill on semantics

[hasty raven]

it does not matter at all not even remotely lol

[spice crystal]

I LITERALLY said "There's a mod that fixes that"

[hasty raven]

its whatever to me

[spice crystal]

Fair

[hasty raven]

lets just leave it at that

[spice crystal]

That said, Its sick to see the other issue fixed, the Masked enemy duplication bug

[winter thicket]

this is why i did not implement the LC Masked fix myself haha. i knew it would be fixed eventually and i didnt want my mod to combat that fix 😆

also i have ni clue if my mod works on v47 as i am not home to test it and im scared to check 😨

[hasty raven]

we always have zombie apocalypse mode

[winter thicket]

in v47?

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[spice crystal]

Seems like some mods made it through, others, not so much

[winter thicket]

i will be out all night but tomorrow i dont have that much real work to do so i might be able to test the mod at like 7am

[hasty raven]

i can test masked mod soon

im testing a few others first

actually more company is broken so that prob makes your mod broken too

thoughts on that ?

moresuits works fine in v47

[winter thicket]

i saw a ton of mods are broken so ill have to do it with nothing else

[hasty raven]

same with toomanysuits

wtf the game got darker

[winter thicket]

its possible it breaks with more company, the only thing i use from there though is the cosmetics, but if cosmetics are broken but downloaded it will still try to use them

it was already dark af without a flashlight

no need for more darkness. imma need a candle hat mod asap

[hasty raven]

more company is fixed now btw

its half working

its def bugged

they have suits

but they are not able to kill me

they spawned over the cap of 2

i have 4 of them

with vanilla spawns disabled

@winter thicket

this is without more company running due to being alone rn

[turbid onyx]

"can a loc come up in yo crib"

[muted sapphire]

Lol I'm sure it'll get updated tomorrow, for now we have bugged mimics that can't kill us XD

[low rivet]

LOL

Ive only had mask bugs with zomb apoc on personally but, otherwise yeah bein a lil goofy

all in due time

[muted sapphire]

I mean the fact it works partially with v47 is good, make sure you remove LC_Masked_Fix if you have it btw it's deprecated with v47

[peak geyser]

Yea thank goodness, saves me an extra mod slot

[low rivet]

From what I heard theres a couple other issues that it still addresses? I remember reading a bit about it in the mod's thread
so im probably gonna keep it around for the time being just in case

[muted sapphire]

Have yet to experience this, we had a masked spawn in normally so maybe if you have LC_Masked_Fix or MaskedAIRevamp installed that's the cause, still need to see if a masked can grab me

[hasty raven]

i only had this mod i was testing this specifically

[muted sapphire]

Weird mod is working fine for me

Just got killed by a mimic like normal, maybe a config conflict somewhere?

and they also spawn in like normal

[winter thicket]

on v47?

[muted sapphire]

Yeah, so maybe there's something wrong with it on certain maps, I will admit they never seemed to kill me while outside but when inside it was fine

LOL just had a Baboon hawk kill a mimic of me XD

[muted sapphire]

Looks like they dropped a hotfix

Game is now v48

but no changelog

[hasty raven]

my testing was only outside

[hasty raven]

I released a hotfix for some slightly backwards height damage logic. I forgot to add to the notes that you can now take a small amount of damage from less height than before.

from his discord

[muted sapphire]

So btw the mod is still working as normal for me, try resetting your config maybe it was corrupted somehow?

[next blaze]

btw you don't have to use a second laptop, you can run the game twice locally and connect to yourself via LAN

just right click the game in the taskbar and open a new instance once you launch it from steam the first time

[muted sapphire]

Did you happen to find any errors at all btw? That could be the cause for broiler's bug? Cus I've been unable to reproduce it and I played for hours with friends

[hasty raven]

Was on a brand new modpack adding 1 mod at the time

[muted sapphire]

Yeah it's super odd, I couldn't reproduce it at all, did you also have a brand new save?

[hasty raven]

Also i ran the game with two clients through lan for testing

[muted sapphire]

Ah so maybe it's bugged in lan mode

[hasty raven]

Could be

[muted sapphire]

I think that's it

[hasty raven]

It was a brand new save

[muted sapphire]

Cus it worked as normal playing Online for me

[hasty raven]

Thats good to know

I will do more tests later i was also forcing it to use Apocalypse mode with capped at 2 but it spawned 4

so not sure what happened maybe a lan issue i will try it on v48 in a bit

[muted sapphire]

@winter thicket I will say I did have a moment earlier where a 2nd mimic spawned in wearing the default suit but had the face cosmetics on of one of my friends lol, but idk if that was the mod or cus they had to drop out before we encountered it cus their game was bugged

I would guess the latter, cus I know I've seen someone crash before and their character model sticks around but the suit reverts to default

[hasty raven]

well mine is still broken

even online solo

apocalypse mode is my guess

i will change it to normal now

these were my settings

so its not related to lan

[muted sapphire]

Yeah sounds like the Apocalypse Mode portion of the mode is broken then, I know the default config settings still work fine though

[muted sapphire]

Custom mod manager btw?

@winter thicket sounds like the mod does need an update, appears v47 broke some of it, I do know the default stock config settings still work as normal though, no idea what else is broken besides Apocalypse mode

[hasty raven]

r2modman

im doing everything right its just broken with some settings

the screenshot is from lethalconfigs ingame config changer

didnt use that the first time but its not broken in v48

[muted sapphire]

Ahhhh makes sense, I've only ever edited configs in r2 lol

[muted sapphire]

I saw you asked if ShipLobby still works btw, I can confirm it does lol

[hasty raven]

ty

[hasty raven]

ok its bugged for me even without those settings

thats weird

maybe its brutal company plus

yeah i even deleted the config

has to be an incompatibility issue

it could be because of morecompany being disabled too though

i hope this is the case

tested with just those 2 mods

version 3.4.0 of brutal company plus and mask only issue happened

now i need to try with morecompany

actually i will try just mask first

ok so its not brutal company plus thank god

the mod stand alone still does this bug

😦

so its the mod thats broken

yeah how did it work for you because i cant get it to work solo at all

maybe it works with morecompany + real player

i will have to try

my modpack and it still isnt working

i rlly doubt it has to do with the config

as i wiped config and it still didnt kill me

maybe it kills you inside but not outside

ok it does not kill me inside either

@winter thicket hf with this :c

i will ask a friend to join me

with a friend still broken

same modpack

both on v48

[remote nebula]

Ummm working for me

[hasty raven]

ok thats rlly weird

i redownloaded the mod removed every mod except for it

and its still broken

[remote nebula]

But they can't open door...?

[hasty raven]

can they kill you ?

[remote nebula]

yeah

[hasty raven]

outside too

or just inside

[remote nebula]

inside

[hasty raven]

try outside

[remote nebula]

OK

[hasty raven]

its def some kinda broken thats for sure

[remote nebula]

Yeah

they can't kikk

Just dance for me

and wearing same suit while I'm single play

[hasty raven]

all my testing is done on experimentation

but its safe to say its broken

[remote nebula]

I'm in titan

[hasty raven]

yeah and you have same bug as i did

i did get it to kill me inside now

[remote nebula]

They don't want to kill me just trying to chill with me

[hasty raven]

wonder if using lc_mask_fix mod fixes it

[remote nebula]

Nope

Installed

[hasty raven]

as its prob the new fix by zeeker that broke it

ah

well you dont need that

[remote nebula]

And still chill with me

[hasty raven]

its fixed xD

[remote nebula]

No it still needed

[hasty raven]

i want to test if mask is bugged in vanilla now

[remote nebula]

Cause the red screen haven't been fixed yet.

[hasty raven]

red screen ?

[remote nebula]

Yeah

Look like this

[hasty raven]

never noticed but i guess if thats true i would use it

[remote nebula]

When masked kill you it will turn your screen into red and this haven't been fixed yet.

[hasty raven]

but he should remove the other fix

so it wont cause issues

im testing it with vanilla now

oh shit

wtf

?????????

its bugged in vanilla i think

thats why its not killing me outside i think

[remote nebula]

wdym?

[hasty raven]

this is only with 2 mods

this level

and timescale to speed up day

i think mask is bugged outside in the actual game

[remote nebula]

huh

let me try

[hasty raven]

thats why it didnt kill me inside earlier

because i force spawned them outside

and since they were outside they cant kill me inside

but when i got killed inside they spawned inside and met me

[remote nebula]

No I don't spawn them outside

I spawn them inside

[hasty raven]

no but i did

if they go outside they become bugged

they work inside

[remote nebula]

Gonna test it

[fresh mirage]

damn 😦 vanilla bug now?

[hasty raven]

i feel like it is

[fresh mirage]

ffs

that sucks

[hasty raven]

i dont have a good way to test vanilla

[remote nebula]

Oh sit

shit

It's

vanilla bug

[fresh mirage]

so should we use that fix mod?

does that fix it in v47?

[hasty raven]

it does not

[remote nebula]

fix mod dosen't fix that

There's no fix yet

[fresh mirage]

damn okay thanks guys!

[remote nebula]

Well, it's time to roll back to v45

[fresh mirage]

yeh 😦 i was just putting together a fresh mod pack for v47 too 😦

[hasty raven]

wtf i just got eaten by a forest giant at 1 pm in vanilla

bruh my run

on March 1 pm forest giant ?

not eclipsed

it camped the main enterance

[keen kiln]

yeah, it happens

[hasty raven]

i still made quota atleast i died on 2nd last day

lol

i dont think normally they can spawn that early

all this just to test masked with fully vanilla game

[keen kiln]

they can

[hasty raven]

yeah i think its safe to say

[keen kiln]

i'm pretty sure they were working okay outside in v45

[hasty raven]

v45 isnt v48

bruh what is my luck spider and coil head at 1 pm at main enterance offense

did they buff the difficulty a lot or something

it used to feel like a walk in the park to play vanilla until end of day

i did tests a while ago on all maps to see what times on avg mobs spawned outside and it was never before like 5-6 pm i think

so 1 pm caught me off guard a lot

[honest scaffold]

idk if anyone has mentioned this here yet so ill put this here

[winter thicket]

I know it didn’t work with advanced cosmetics. I only did it with MoreCompany. I’ll do advanced eventually

@honest scaffold

[winter thicket]

so it is vanilla 100%?

[remote nebula]

Yes for sure

[strong lantern]

we got a masked enemy(without mask ofc) and he wasnt attacking us at all

[keen kiln]

advanced company overrides more company and takes it's cosmetics, so you can use more company cosmetics mods with advanced company

[strong lantern]

he was just emoting

[keen kiln]

but yeah, seems like additional compatibility is required

[hasty raven]

100%

[winter thicket]

it’s the latter, cosmetics are saved by id at start but the suit is not saved so it probably errored to default

[hasty raven]

im currently on rend hoping to get a masked to spawn bruh

im playing vanilla

so i can record it

this is pain

day 2 9 pm no masked

[winter thicket]

vanilla spawns suck fr

[hasty raven]

well rend should have 60 weight

or something

10 pm n othing

im not even going to bother going back to the ship

[winter thicket]

ah I didn’t know that. I’ll look at it

[winter thicket]

well thanks for the testing 🫡

[hasty raven]

day 2 no masked

day 3 or i give up

[winter thicket]

I’m about done with my morning meetings & then I’ll look at advanced company and maybe the vanilla code to see if i can see what blows up

[keen kiln]

timezones are funny things

[winter thicket]

America moment

I thought you were in September

[remote nebula]

Well

[hasty raven]

couldnt get 1 to spawn i give up good night

[honest scaffold]

gg

[stuck eagle]

is it okay to only use spawnrarity from lethalutilities instead of the config from this mod? and the other way around?

[hasty raven]

If you put set vanilla spawns yes in the masked mod

Cant say for otherway as i dont know

@winter thicket @remote nebula

That bug report i did came in clutch

[remote nebula]

Nice will test it later

[winter thicket]

🕺

[hasty raven]

Cant test went to bed but gl

[muted sapphire]

Now who's gonna tell him that spray paint still shows up for people who aren't the host sometimes? Lmfao

[hasty raven]

You

[muted sapphire]

Idk how to contact Zeekers tbh

[hasty raven]

He has a public discord then use his bug reporting channel

[muted sapphire]

But yeah when playing last night my friend saw something they sprayed at the Company when we went back and said it was floating, only them though

and it could be cus they were on a HDD

and have slow net

[hasty raven]

Very posible

[muted sapphire]

Wonder what was bugged with the inverse teleporter btw

Lol

[muted sapphire]

Lol odd

I've always just bought it in orbit so I likely wouldn't have noticed, granted I haven't gotten an inverse yet

[winter thicket]

i did not do it in true vanilla but i spawned masked inside and then ran outside and they killed me and cosmetics worked as well

more suits did not work tho but i havent updated it yet so thats prolly why

[young onyx]

in v49?

[winter thicket]

if that is the current version then yes

i did it two minutes ago

[young onyx]

nice!

[hasty raven]

Does red screen thing still happen

v49 is current

[winter thicket]

unsure, the red screen thing happens when a masked is killed while eating someone

according to LCMasked, it still does

[hasty raven]

I forgot to report that bug woops

Well lc mask hasnt tried V49 yet i think

It was still doing it in v48 though

[winter thicket]

ahh

[muted sapphire]

They did, they said it still happens with v49 but the masked behavior is back to normal

[remote nebula]

Yep he fix the outside friendly problem

[muted sapphire]

Lmfao the outside friendly thing was funny, because we had a Baboon Hawk kill one

I think the Baboon hawk thought it was a player

[remote nebula]

now I'm gonna test if he will open the door or not

[muted sapphire]

https://clips.twitch.tv/WittyDignifiedAnteaterPeteZarollTie-m3yKp1gHsRQPU2P4 Lmfao

[hasty raven]

Yeah i saw that now my bad

[muted sapphire]

Oh well it will forever be memorialized incase that is also fixed now lol

cus that was funny

[strong lantern]

whats up with this mod today?

i was in a dungeon and a mimic "killed me"

but all it did was STUN me

permanently

i was frozen, couldnt move at all

but i didnt "die"

[muted sapphire]

Lmao new vanilla bug?

[remote nebula]

Hey @winter thicket I think you can make masked take off mask after player escape from it for a long or medium distance?

[muted sapphire]

or maybe cus you were playing solo

[hasty raven]

What was wrong with doors ?

[remote nebula]

Nah I spawn lots of masked in v48 and they just wondering behind the door and won't come to see me

[hasty raven]

Ah

[winter thicket]

assuming this is for the reveal mask config option?

[fresh mirage]

you try v49?

[remote nebula]

Yes

[winter thicket]

i tried it when i originally made the option but i couldnt find a good method to attach it to

i did not have that much time to look at it though so ill check again eventually

[keen kiln]

lol

[remote nebula]

That's fine just an advice

[winter thicket]

all good, i do want it implemented in that mode

[remote nebula]

That will be pretty scary lol

[winter thicket]

pretty sure i just did it

[remote nebula]

Distance will be configureable?

[winter thicket]

i wont push the update yet, i want to do a little more testing to make sure it works on newest version. also want to integrate advcom cosmetics before the push

i didnt do distance, so no

when the masked loses the player in a chase, it resets to unmasked

[remote nebula]

Got it. Thanks for your hard working!

[winter thicket]

do you know if advanced company has a discord

i did not mean that

github

i dont see one linked to the mod page

[remote nebula]

you want to see the code?

There's a thread.

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1186884307332108339

[keen kiln]

nah, i don't think it's open source

but there's channel in mod releases, yeah

[wide bay]

May I ask, does the mod work on v47? I'm asking because so far I haven't encountered any. I also tried to check a bit up but was unable to find anything (or I'm blind)

[sinful zodiac]

is it so hard to just turn it off in config

[muted sapphire]

LogNeuter makes adjustments that aren't in the standard BepInEx config

[trim canopy]

For some reason the masked are able to kill me, I tested it yesterday. Am I a gangster?

[remote nebula]

Outside they can't

[muted sapphire]

old message

[trim canopy]

Oh

Outside I didn’t test it

[muted sapphire]

They couldn't do it from outside, was a vanilla bug that got fixed today

[trim canopy]

Oh fr fr? Hell yes

[muted sapphire]

Cus Zeeekerss is a chad and has been releasing hotfixes out the ass

Lol

[dusty salmon]

Where can I get a good logneuter config

Do I just need to do it all myself

[muted sapphire]

I left the settings for LogNeuter on default

[dusty salmon]

I thought default does nothing

[quick gull]

Is this mod broken on v49? it spawns like 15 masked

[dusty salmon]

And you have to generate configs for your game then add them in manually

[muted sapphire]

It does, at least after first launch it will

[dusty salmon]

Okay cool

ty

[hidden ivy]

yo by any chance do you know if this got fixed since u saw it ?

does masked enemy need an update for V49 ?

[burnt pollen]

we removed the mod and havent used it since so i can't say

[muted sapphire]

I never had this happen at all when playing with it

[muted sapphire]

Are you using LateCompany at all? LateCompany is pretty bugged since v47

[hybrid walrus]

Hello, please tell me those who downloaded the MaskedEnemyOverhaul mod, you also have a problem with the fact that everyone except the Server Host sees masks on those who put on the mask, the mask disappears only for the Server Host? Or is it just me and my friends who have this problem?
v45

[burnt pollen]

we haven't played v47 yet

and we were using shiplobby

[muted sapphire]

Ah well if you updated Skinwalkers that might have been why, Skinwalkers last 2 updates were for v47+

[burnt pollen]

we haven't used either mods for a long time

ever since
#1184403394660663326 message

[muted sapphire]

Well I can confirm I've never had that issue

So if it was a thing it's probably been fixed

or there was a conflict somewhere

[muted sapphire]

Are you using posessed masks?

cus that mod can cause it

It's not really that big of a deal, just something to keep in mind

[hybrid walrus]

No, I haven’t downloaded other mods for maskeds at all

[muted sapphire]

Ah then maybe a bug with the update that added the new config option

Idk I haven't tested it, and I don't have my game downgraded to v45 and don't plan to downgrade it lol

[hybrid walrus]

It’s just that my friends and I really wanted to immerse ourselves in the feeling that maskeds could be among our own, we even installed a mod to turn off nicknames, but except for the Host, everyone sees the masks of those who put on the mask, and the immersion is spoiled

Thank you anyway

[hidden ivy]

Im talking liké a month ago it was happening, but only on lobby with many players liké around 8-10 and only After 1 or 2 houre of gameplay, really not constitent tho it was pretty random

[winter thicket]

I want to say it works on v49, I tested it very briefly and it worked. But it was just loading into a server and spawning in masked, but the masks were hidden and stuff

[winter thicket]

are the config options for your friends set up correctly? I tested multiple times on v47 and a few times in v49. it worked on both host and clients

[hybrid walrus]

When I collect mods, I immediately send the config to my friends along with the mod so that their settings are exactly the same as mine, but I haven’t checked it on version 47 and higher, maybe there won’t be any errors.
In any case, thank you very much

[peak geyser]

FYI Ginger may want to update the recommended mods on the webpage listing https://gyazo.com/bf5f8a69558f9c616cae635547dcdf48
Two of the masked bugs were fixed in the newest updates, however I believe masked fix still works for 3 of the other bugs associated with Masked

[normal sluice]

currently the only issue with masked is if the kill is interrupted, the red tint stays on your screen until you die

[young onyx]

it's a vanilla bug

[normal sluice]

which tbh i think is intended, but the masked fix mod will correct it

[young onyx]

get maskedfix or what was that mod called

oh ok

I didn't read anything before that and assumed you were reporting something, sorry haha

[winter thicket]

yeah, i was gonna update it when i finished advcom fix but i might just do it now since idk when thatll happen and i have another fix ready to go

is there a way to update readme without changing version

[next blaze]

no

~t that I know of

[winter thicket]

L fr

[next blaze]

yeah the site is not super creator friendly

[torpid bronze]

i have this problem , and im on v49

did you find a fix?

[hybrid walrus]

Not yet, we are testing

[torpid bronze]

oh

does LC API conflict with it?

[hybrid walrus]

In theory it shouldn't conflict

idk

[torpid bronze]

if you find a solution then please let me know

[uncut maple]

figured I should post this here, idk if it's known already but AC added cosmetic and equipment support to Masked enemies but I came across one and it didn't have anything on him and I spotted this error on console

[young onyx]

Oh yeah, had the same issue I think

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1165206719798988861/1194986122363801610/SMrPID6.mp4?ex=65b2588d&is=659fe38d&hm=3c400365b2baa1b9989293667a67c0a5add1c06116ce9f9dbd91a6883342f2bf&

[winter thicket]

him just waving is hilarious

[young onyx]

he nearly gave me a heart attack

[winter thicket]

yeah, i need to make it compatible. idk how he changes it and there is no github so i have to look at the dreaded dll which is why i have not done it yet. this was before the changes he just oushed to make them on the masked so itll probably be easier now then when i looked a week ago

[uncut maple]

I see, all good, he does have a thread here for AC so worst case you guys can work on it together or something 🙂

[keen kiln]

just go to his channel and ask for a code, he's okay guy i think

[winter thicket]

and just to let yall know about the next update. i will definitely have:
masked player names
on masked reveal mode, masks will hide again after some time

i will hope to have advcom

[keen kiln]

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1186884307332108339

[winter thicket]

i will if i get stuck on dll. it should be fine, i havent even tried that hard to do it since im avoiding it. thank you tho

[winter thicket]

oh also, should player names be randomized on masked? like if a masked was mimicking me should it say "HomelessGinger" or "H0meIessG1nger" or something along those lines

or should i do both and just add yet another config option

[hasty raven]

Mimic same name and suit

The more accurate copy the better

[rough dagger]

^

[winter thicket]

🫡

[hasty raven]

Not sure how hard this would be but if you can have the voicehud mod or nameplate tweak copy the speaking of the same player not audio just visual So it looks like they speak at the same time

[pallid canopy]

Just to ask about masked usernames, can we have an option to disable them? My group run the mod that hides usernames

[winter thicket]

yeah thatll be an option

[hasty raven]

You can take the approach of autodetect specific mods to disable setting for it if it nots in the players mods

[winter thicket]

ill have to look into it, ill probably push the names jsut base before i look at common mod integrations

[hasty raven]

Yeah np

Names is already very good

[muted sapphire]

Look forward to them having the names lol

[primal solstice]

Is this mod compatible with cosmetics done through Advanced Company?

The mod has MoreCompany cosmetic integration I just haven't had the opportunity to test it properly

[winter thicket]

not at the moment. i think i have the fix for it but i havent tested it and frankly dont feel like downloading advcom at the moment to test it. ill test it when i push the update with the masked names, which will hopefully be this weekend

[waxen pumice]

Hey, whoops posted in the wrong chat before. Is the masked enemy overhaul working for the latest version?

I only ask because it seems like they aren't spawning at all, even though the host does have them set to spawn naturally and everything (we also have all our configs set to same as host just in case)

[winter thicket]

should be, a few people seemed to have this no spawning issue but it works for me and seems to work for a majority of people. My guess would be some conflict with mods

[waxen pumice]

we actually JUST got our first one. it was 10x scarier because we genuinely thought the mod was broken lol. i think it might just be a conflict with spawning, our spawnrate % is r.lly high but thats the first time we got one all night. thanks for replying.

[glacial lichen]

sorry im not sure where this goes, but the mod doesnt seem to be compatible with lethalvrm, the mimic spawns as the default suit rather than the modded one and everyone turns invisible whenever a mimic is spawned

[peak geyser]

No

Doesn't work with thicc woman and dog model, I can confirm 100%

[celest wing]

nope

[peak geyser]

You need to use that in order to get thick woman

Not really possible currently

[fossil raptor]

do they wear

cosmetics?

[winter thicket]

more company cosmetics yes advcom no

[fossil raptor]

Oooooh do you plan on integrating adv

[muted sapphire]

They said opver the weekend they probably will when they do the NamePlates update

https://clips.twitch.tv/GrossAthleticSharkDBstyle-jj3sUWqP5VPmrnSG Top tier moment of Skinwalkers and Masked Enemy Overhaul btw lol

[timber thunder]

I swear when MaskedAIRevamp gets stable/out of beta, it’ll be the trifecta of Lethal Company modding

[muted sapphire]

Lol for sure

[dusky jungle]

hey ginger how complex is the mask hiding?

If its built into the games ode already then I just want to make my mod hide the mask on death

[winter thicket]

my revealing of the mask? not complex at all

i can send the code. gimme a sec

[dusky jungle]

I'm trying to see if I can use
__instance.SetMaskType(-1); for it rn

-1 doesn't exist however, if null exists for the mask it could be this simple

gonna try 0

[winter thicket]

no, you just need to deactivate the mask. i use a method to make an animation to hide the mask so it doesnt just pop away. could look cool

0 wont work

        {
            float counter = 0f;
            float startLoc, endLoc;
            mask.SetActive(true);
            if (fadeIn)
            {
                startLoc = 0.095f;
                endLoc =.215f;
            }
            else
            {
                startLoc = .215f;
                endLoc = 0.095f;
            }

            while (counter < duration)
            {
                counter += Time.deltaTime;
                float loc = Mathf.Lerp(startLoc, endLoc, counter / duration);
                mask.transform.localPosition = new UnityEngine.Vector3 (-.009f, .143f, loc);
                yield return null;
            }

            if(!fadeIn)
            {
                mask.SetActive(false);
            }
        }```

[dusky jungle]

damn, is that for one of the masks or is that not a numberic value?

[winter thicket]

probably for one of the masks. i dont use set mask type though, there is no reason

[dusky jungle]

Whats the IEnumerator?

[winter thicket]

the code i just sent you makes the mask sink into the body and then deactivate

a coroutine, very useful stuff

[dusky jungle]

Do I need a reference for it? my visual studio doesn't recognize it

[winter thicket]

basically it runs this code for the set duration time without stopping the rest of you method. is pretty essential for this

i think just using UnityEngine

you have to call it a special way though

[dusky jungle]

What would the code look like if it weren't an animation/what is the central part of it?

[winter thicket]

            {
                IEnumerator fadeMaskCoroutine = FadeInAndOut(mask, true, 1f);
                __instance.StartCoroutine(fadeMaskCoroutine);
            }```

this is it, the if block calls the fading method, and the coroutine does all the work. this is the only code needed to hide the mask

[dusky jungle]

Do I need to set up other code to make it readable?

I'm trying to make it the mask on the model dissapear on death

[winter thicket]

so plugin is specific to my mod, you can delete that. also the comedy mask and the tragedy mask visually look the same, so i just use the comedy mask for everything. gimme a sec and ill type what you need to replace that if with

[dusky jungle]

I would think that I could replace the plugin with my plugin name yeah?

[winter thicket]

that depends if you want the option to be a part of your mod permanently or if you want someone to be able tokeep the mask after death. Plugin.RevealMasks is just a config option for people who dont want them to ever show

[dusky jungle]

We are talking about the model of the ememy yes?

[winter thicket]

the mask on the enemies face, yeah

[dusky jungle]

My mod spawns in a mask on the ground after killing a masked so I am trying to visually hide the mask on the enemy after tehy are dead

[winter thicket]

so the method i gave you makes the mask gradually disappear, would you want it to disappear immediately after death?

it can either sink into the skin or just disappear (which looks odd when playing, thats why i have it gradual)

[dusky jungle]

by gradually dissapear you mean like slowly vanish?

[winter thicket]

this but backwards

[dusky jungle]

ig disappear since I found there to be no way to spawn the mask drop mid air so its already an instant transfer to the ground

[winter thicket]

so yes

well, to have it instantly disappear is much easier, you wont even need the coroutine

__instance.gameObject.transform.Find("ScavengerModel/metarig/spine/spine.001/spine.002/spine.003/spine.004/HeadMaskTragedy").gameObject.SetActive(false);```

[dusky jungle]

thank you, that code worked, I honestly don't think the sink in would improve it since then there would just be 2 masks briefly unless I want to add a delay to the drop appearing

[winter thicket]

one thing you could do, is look into lerp and use a coroutine to move the mask from the face to the one on the ground, so you can visually see it fall

i can give you a coroutine that might work if you want it

[dusky jungle]

oh huh so you are saying I could try animating the mask on the ground to look like it rotates off the body and onto the ground?

[dusky jungle]

Sure I'm down to try that

[winter thicket]

yeah, mine uses lerp to go inside the head and hide there, but instead you would just change the final position to be the one on the ground

[dusky jungle]

I think I figured it out

(dw about the screen I was killed by one of the 10 with invincibility on)

[winter thicket]

sorry i got a bit distracted when i started and went to get a drink but i also did it since i didnt see your message

        {
            // beginning of method stuff

            // move maskToSpawn and spawnedMask here
            spawnedMask.SetActive(false);
            GameObject existingMask = __instance.gameObject.transform.Find("ScavengerModel/metarig/spine/spine.001/spine.002/spine.003/spine.004/HeadMaskComedy").gameObject; // all masked spawn wearing comedy mask im pretty sure

            float duration = 0.5f; // time in seconds for mask to fall, might have to speed it up
            IEnumerator MaskFall = MaskFallCoRoutine(existingMask, spawnedMask, duration);
            __instance.StartCoroutine(MaskFall);


            //place getComponent and rest of method here
        }

        static IEnumerator MaskFallCoRoutine(GameObject existingMask, GameObject spawnedMask, float duration)
        {
            float counter = 0f;

            while (counter < duration)
            {
                counter += Time.deltaTime;

                existingMask.transform.localRotation = UnityEngine.Quaternion.Slerp(existingMask.transform.localRotation, spawnedMask.transform.localRotation, counter / duration);
                existingMask.transform.localPosition = UnityEngine.Vector3.Lerp(existingMask.transform.localPosition, spawnedMask.transform.localPosition, counter / duration);

                yield return null;
            }

            existingMask.SetActive(false);
            spawnedMask.SetActive(true);
        }```

[dusky jungle]

Thank you, I figured it out and tweaked the fall speed, its quite juicy now imo

Now I gotta see if it works alongside your mod

[young onyx]

kinda sad that with overhaul its pretty heavily intended to turn off the masks, i love the animations 😦

[muted sapphire]

You can use the Option that has the Mask show up when it's killing you

[young onyx]

btw, does overhaul overwrite custom moon spawns?

[winter thicket]

probably

if you dont want it to, turn on vanilla spawns in config

[young onyx]

nah i really want it to but i dont see a lot of masks

[winter thicket]

also there is an option to toggle every part of the mod if you want some things to still show up

[young onyx]

but cant really say for sure

and i dont think i have sufficient tools to reliably check it ngl

[dusky jungle]

yup no issues

[winter thicket]

my mod uses the moons list to overwrite the spawn rate of the enemy, so if you set it in the config, there is no reason it shouldnt spawn on the modded moon if thats what you want

[young onyx]

ohhhhh, ty, gonna check that out

[young onyx]

weird, dont see an option to do that in mine, might be outdated

[winter thicket]

turn on use spawn rarity and then set the number below that to whatever

the higher the better

[young onyx]

ah, ok then

ty

[dusky jungle]

wow our mods look really nice together

Thank you again for the help

[winter thicket]

W

[young onyx]

so 15 would be close to the default setting?

[shadow terrace]

hey i delete this mod but there are still no mobs spawning

[peak geyser]

Why is it so bright in your facility?

[muted sapphire]

That mod doesn't conflict, it just won't load the models from that mod

So you either have something else that's conflicting or you should delete the config and let it regenerate

[shadow terrace]

can you tell me how to do it?

[muted sapphire]

If you're usind r2modman or TMM, go to config editor, find MaskedEnemyRework.cfg and delete it

It'll regenerate on launch

[shadow terrace]

thanks i will try it

[muted sapphire]

If you use AdvancedCompany I know it has conflicts right now

[shadow terrace]

is there a problem with suits?

[shadow terrace]

didnt work sadly

[muted sapphire]

Probably a conflicting mod then, that or one just didn't spawn it's not guaranteed lol

[shadow terrace]

the fun thing is, before the update it all worked proberly

[muted sapphire]

I've had 0 issues

[dusky jungle]

devmode

I think the mod is called LethalDevMode?

[hasty raven]

wait so the mask fades in when you are close ?

thats kinda cool

[dusky jungle]

Thats a feature of masked enemy overhaul

The flies are part of symbiosis

[hasty raven]

what does your mod do then ?

[dusky jungle]

my mod makes it so it detects the death of a masked and
1.Hides the mask on their model and
2. 50/50 chance placing one of the masks on the ground and using a translation to make it appear to fall from head level

[hasty raven]

oh

[dusky jungle]

its guaranteed to spawn a mask only either comedy or tragedy

[hasty raven]

but this mod already hides the mask as a option ?

ah

[dusky jungle]

masked enemy overhaul can either hide masks forever, reveal masks when they go for a kill, or never hide them at all

[muted sapphire]

There's an option you can set in the config for the mask to appear when the mimic is close to you which is what Impulsive used in the showcase

[dusky jungle]

my mod doesn't interfere, in the video you can see how they reveal the mask as they attack but my mod still hides it post mortem

[hasty raven]

ima use that next time i play

[dusky jungle]

Hi homeless, when you get the chance can you tell me if the game differentiates player spawned masked from naturally spawned masked?

correct me if I'm wrong but the skinwalker mod compats with your mod and only uses voicelines of that person yeah?

Trying to see if I can have my mod instantiate a player body of a matching player id when a masked that has a player id attached to it is killed

[winter thicket]

im confused by what your last statement means. but in vanilla, you can differentiate between a natural and a player spawned one by seeing if mimickingPlayer is null. in my mod, there is no way to tell since it sets mimicking player on both natural and player spawned

[dusky jungle]

so the game does not know who is being mimicked?

[winter thicket]

it does, mimicking player contains the player id

so its like __instance.mimickingPlayer.playerId or something like that

[dusky jungle]

ok, I am now trying to see if I can have another event that runs when a masked is killed but only if they are tied to a specific player id, it would make the body dissapear and spawn in a player corpse with that matching id

[winter thicket]

why tho

oh so it can be carried

[dusky jungle]

yes, its recoverable

[winter thicket]

ahhh i see

yeah thats for sure possible, the easier option might be to just make the masked bodies interactable for pickup

[peak geyser]

Interesting

[winter thicket]

but if you just want to spawn in a body, you should have everything you need for it in the mimickingPlayer field

[dusky jungle]

alright

[peak geyser]

Do you have a mod thread for this yet? And if not can you @ me or something when you do? I like this idea and it would definitely go well in my modpack if it works nicely with this mod too

[dusky jungle]

yeah #1195383416837902456

[dusky jungle]

If it still works with this mod depends on if this mod has naturally spawned masked that are tied to a specific players id

[peak geyser]

Sick ty, following now

[winter thicket]

my mod does, vanilla does not

[dusky jungle]

shite so if you run your mod with mine it may dulplicate bodies

[winter thicket]

i dont think so

what exactly are you trying to do? replace the dead masked with a player body to carry?

[dusky jungle]

But.....

Why can't you spectate the naturally spawned masked in your mod? Did you hide that or do they only mimic a player id and not take over as being that id in the server?

[dusky jungle]

Yes, only ones that used to be a player, otherwise the new code will not affect them, their husks will remain inmoveable

[winter thicket]

ohh then your mod would make naturally spawned masked turn into a body too. i see

and honestly i forgot you could spectate masked so i never even looked to implement it haha

[dusky jungle]

No, wouldn't that automatically be a thing if you mod didn't patch it out?

[winter thicket]

well i did not patch it out

[lunar eagle]

this got updated today??

[winter thicket]

negative

[lunar eagle]

oh ok :<

[winter thicket]

it was updated a few days ago, and will be updated in the next couple days to add nametags to masked

[lunar eagle]

maybe i missed it?

ill check it out

ohh ok

holy fuck thunderstore just got hit with a bunch of mods all at once (nvm that was a glitch? lul)

rofl

[winter thicket]

just thought of this, one thing you can do is just check the masked lastplayerkilled field. if its not null, then that specific masked killed a player and you can turn him into a dead player prefab

[dusky jungle]

wouldn't that be for a masked that has killed a player already?

[winter thicket]

oh you right, for some reason i thought the masked that killed the player would be the masked that is the turned one but it spawns the turned one

[hasty raven]

how is the nameplates going is it too difficult ?

[little wave]

cxan this mod owrk with host only

[empty lance]

From my experience it apparently can but idk how that looks for other players

[little wave]

oh

[upper sedge]

can you please tell me the name of that mod?

[winter thicket]

I have them done but I haven’t tested it too much. Wanted to test it out a bit more but might just release it so y’all can try it

there is something odd about the names and how they look but I can’t really place my finger on what it is

[hasty raven]

Sure i could take a look if you release it or give a dll for it

[winter thicket]

so, i pushed the update which includes:

possible fix for advcom cosmetics
Masked usernames (off by default, can be turned on in config)
Reveal Mask config option now rehides the mask when Masked is no longer aggressive

i will be honest, i have not thoroughly tested them, i just havent had time. ill be out all day today and tomorrow so odds are i wont be able to test them before yall do. all updates i made this update are able to be turned off in the config, if they are broken. just disable them

thanks

[young onyx]

out of 10 spawned only one was with a nickname. im running advcomp so the cosmetic issue might be from there

nickname looks kinda off

nvm

i had 2 spawn with my cosmetics the second time i tested

nickname persists after they die

it appears that i can also sync emotes with their dead bodies lol

[peak geyser]

This is a feature with TooManyEmotes newest update, not MEO

[winter thicket]

it’s only on one enemy? tough. I’ll look into it, for now just keep it off. thanks y’all

[young onyx]

It looks like it spawns likeeeeeee

1 in 20 with a name

def more that one, i've seen a couple

havent seen more than a couple with costumes also, havent seen any after i restarted the lobby

[winter thicket]

we’re they by chance outside with the cosmetics? All I did to fix cosmetics was stop the error from happening, and I left the actual showing of cosmetics up to advcom. wondering if they have the same issue more company had

[young onyx]

didnt check outside, i was using zeekers' test map and saw like 2 with cosmetics

im gonna do more testing on an actual moon rn

0 out of 40 had cosmetics, saw 1 with a nickname. gonna change my cosmetics ingame and check if it changes anything, then im gonna do a run with adv disabled

changing didnt do anything for me

w/o advcompany

oh damn i forgot to test nicknames

brb

[winter thicket]

what tf is going on with this picture haha are those cosmetics

[young onyx]

the name is still quite a rare occurance

also idk if its this dungeon's shading but it looks better than in unmodded ones

[winter thicket]

picture makes way more sense now

i could not tell what i was looking at in the first one hahaha

[young onyx]

lmao sorry

well its really weird to me that i def did see a couple costumed masked with adv enabled

[winter thicket]

all good, i just thought there was like 10 cosmetics stacked on top of one another

well it used to not work at all, so i would assume my "fix" makes it apply in some special case (like when they went outside for morecompany or something like that)

[young onyx]

i cant say anything abt outside ones, only seen them inside and then died sadly

but i think you should know that im testing on my main profile with 100+ more mods so something might be breaking, i can test in a more sterile environment if you wanna

[winter thicket]

dont worry about it, thank you for what youve done so far. ill see why its only one one sometime in the next few days

or only on some*

[young onyx]

ok, thanks a lot for all the work you've done on this mod!

[still dagger]

Does only the host need to change the config

or every client?

[peak geyser]

Syncs with host

[young onyx]

weird

the use vanilla spawn didnt sync and didnt let the client in

[still dagger]

Just double checking, if host changes something in the config it syncs to every client?

[young onyx]

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/2285080441388061353/2E796482D612DAB4CF54057452C751EB771C819A/

[peak geyser]

Yes that's what I just said

[still dagger]

Alrighty

[stuck eagle]

in the new patch notes its said that the spawn rate of the mimics has been changed. for me lethalutilities takes care of the spawn rate. so can i somehow disable this in this mod so that they dont conflict?

[peak geyser]

Are they conflicting? Because I'm pretty sure MEO just adds a guaranteed spawn for the mimics, not an actual change to the spawn rate

[stuck eagle]

the patch notes say "Boosts the spawn rate to be the same as a bracken, so it can now spawn on every moon"
i already configured this and other spawn settings in lethalutilities

[young onyx]

that was a thing way before today's update tho

[peak geyser]

What he said

[stuck eagle]

well i just set spawn rarity on false
is this still possible now
cant look into the new update rn

when its false the settings shouldnt apply right?

[peak geyser]

idk man maybe try it out in game and report back to us?

[stuck eagle]

ok i thought maybe the mod author could give some quick intel on that
i just want to set a unique spawn rate for every moon and it seems like you can just configure one global spawn rate in the config

but ig "use vanilla spawns" should take the ones configured with lethalutilities then

[winter thicket]

correct, if you have another mod that affects spawn rates, use "Use Vanilla Spawns" then there will be no conflict

[twin summit]

For some reason since the latest update I have had a mask spawn at the start every time

[rough dagger]

probably been asked a lot but how exactly does the spawn rarity work?

[keen kiln]

i've heard that 300 is max chance, so it's 25/300, 45/300 etc

maybe i'm wrong

at least it works like that for custom dungeons chance

[tender orbit]

Wait so this adds more company’s cosmetics on the masked?

[keen kiln]

yes

[sullen mantle]

how do i know i am not masked ?
i could be, u could be too

[dusky jungle]

Just double checking, this mod attaches an actualPlayerId to every mimic?

[hasty raven]

isnt the source code public

you can check i think

[winter thicket]

yeah it is

https://github.com/HomelessGinger/MaskedEnemyOverhaul

[hasty raven]

i will do some testing with local clients

but i cant do multiplayer netcode test atm

[dusky jungle]

What’s the difference between actualPlayerId and playerClientId?

[winter thicket]

no clue

[dusky jungle]

ok, maybe that means my mod won't interfere with yours?

[waxen pumice]

masked arent killing anyone, is this a known bug? they just kinda follow

[young onyx]

hm

i found something interesting

[winter edge]

definitely something wrong with your pack, I had this mod and one of my friends died to a mask incognito and they were pissed lmao

[turbid onyx]

Bro really victory emoted on you

[winter thicket]

did you tell this to the maker of TooManyEmotes? that’s hilarious tho

and was this with invincibility on?

nvm I just watched the whole video

[young onyx]

yeah, the first one was naturally spawned i think

cause i was testing the other mod

the ones that were created of me were with cosmetics to that's something

[winter thicket]

using advcom right? I’m willing to bet it’s the same problem that morecom had where it wasn’t called on start due to there being no need to without my mod. so I’ll have to just get in there and fix it eventually, was hoping it would work base

[young onyx]

yup

[winter thicket]

advcom used to not work at all with it so at least it works a little

[young onyx]

so far it looks like the initially spawned dude has no cosmetics and a nickname, the ones created by him get the cosmetics and nickname starts basically jumping to the last one created

if i understand correctly

[winter thicket]

yeah that’s what it looked like in the videos. Thank you for testing 🫡

[winter thicket]

i figured out the issue with the zombie apocalypse btw. ill see if i can get it fixed later this week

[young onyx]

hm

gonna wait for it to hit thunderstore and test if anything changes

[lyric oar]

has the skinwalker integration happened so that the skinwalkers only mimic who they masked?

[winter thicket]

nope but the author of skinwalkers messaged me yesterday trying to look into this

[young onyx]

i forgot

nope still the same

[restive ridge]

Hello! I wanted to know if there was a list of cosmetics mods that were compatible with the Masked Enemy Overhaul mod, thanks

[rare shoal]

After reading a bit of this thread is this working with AdvancedCompany as expected?

[young onyx]

nuh uh

it works a little bit but not too much

[rare shoal]

I will disable to avoid issues then

[timber thunder]

Why does AdvancedCompany have so many compatibility issues with mods?

[rare shoal]

I think it's because it's a "huge" orverhaul mod maybe? or change so many things?

[timber thunder]

Is it like the community standard atm?

Or is MoreCompany still the most popular “overhaul” mod

[rare shoal]

I think MoreCompany still more popular, also doesn't change that much so i think things will be keep like that

[winter thicket]

this mod doesnt crash advanced comp, so it can still run with it. just the cosmetics only sometimes show up, but no errors or crashing occurs

ill try to fix it soon

[rare shoal]

Oh, perfect

Thanks for the answer

Awesome mod btw

[timber thunder]

Also slightly off topic, but dang I wish thunderstore had better tagging where you could tag host-only mods/client-side mods that allow you to play with vanilla players

[rare shoal]

Or even the version

Because it's a mess to search for working mods with that many patches

[young onyx]

it has that

but uhhh

overall not many people use the tags

[timber thunder]

Ahhhhh gotcha

[young onyx]

which leads to stuff like modpacks flooding your normal mod search queue

[leaden pasture]

Hey, I'm getting an error with the mod that's stopping things from spawning, should I post the error?

[young onyx]

cause people are too lazy to tag their stuff as a modpack

[timber thunder]

I’m used to GameBanana as a mod platform, so it’s an adjustment

I find the that a lot of mods will just be like “adds different skins” or “adds 8 new pieces of scrap” and just goes into no detail or show what they look like

I can’t think of like any other game that I’ve looked into mod stuff for that’s like that

[timber thunder]

Sending your log file might be your best bet

[leaden pasture]

[Error : Unity Log] NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Stack trace:

(wrapper dynamic-method) RoundManager.DMDRoundManager::Update(RoundManager) getting this error

[winter thicket]

there are about a million things that can cause this, as all it means is that something is null when i try to call for it in the method

this typically means a mod conflict prevented me from grabbing something

or a mod changed what im looking for

[leaden pasture]

How do I find out what's causing the conflict?

[winter thicket]

do you by chance have a custom moon mod or lethal expansion

[leaden pasture]

Multiple custom moons

And LethalExpansion

[winter thicket]

the only way to definitively find it is to deactivate until the error is no longer present

lethalexpansion which is required for many custom moons, causes a lot of errors with a lot of mods. not saying its definitely that, but i wouldnt be surprised

[young onyx]

I can vouch for LE (meant lecore lmao sorry), been doing all the testing with it enabled

Def something else

[leaden pasture]

So the mod doesn't work with custom moons?

[young onyx]

It should

Are you running LE or LECore?

[leaden pasture]

LE

[young onyx]

do you mind switching to lecore and trying again?

I always forget that not everyone is running lecore sorry

yeah maybe an le issue after all

[leaden pasture]

Swapping now

Disabling LE disables all my custom moons

[young onyx]

you can slap lecore with le

it will disable the latter

So just run both

[leaden pasture]

Same error

Both running

Disabling LE

[young onyx]

Different mod then

[winter thicket]

another option, if you use many custom moons and never really play vanilla moons you can turn on vanilla spawns

[leaden pasture]

Is that in the config?

[winter thicket]

it will stop the error from happening, and enemies will start to spawn in again. but there is no guarantee for the masked to spawn. i would guess most modded moons would spawn every enemy anyway so you wont see a difference

yes

[leaden pasture]

Yeah I've had the masked spawning normally on the custom moons I've been using, it should function the same

[winter thicket]

then yeah, turn on vanilla spawns and only the visual part of the mod will apply. should fix the spawning

[leaden pasture]

Awesome thanks

[muted sapphire]

Can't wait for the update that adds support for Advanced Company, Advanced Company really does make the game more stable and makes it run smoother

[winter thicket]

hopefully soon

[keen kiln]

is that me or maskeds spawn kinda too often lately?

considering that i didn't change config

[white glen]

Just experienced this mod after a couple weeks of it being installed (Never had masked man spawns in a while)

Bro ran up to me while i was lost in the snow and i thought it was a player ;-;

I was so happy to see another person and lost my shit when he grabbed me

https://tenor.com/view/spideran-meme-into-the-spiderverse-miles-morales-peter-parker-gif-13634079

[peak geyser]

Yeah I got baited by one of the imposters last night. It had the exact outfit and cosmetics as my friend that was just ahead of me as we were running to the door. So when I went to go in he was just standing at the door about to go in and just GRABBED ME as I realized it was an imposter

[keen kiln]

imagine we had masked man spawned in the first round when we was landed on experiment and waiting for our shitty flashlights

he sneaked up on us easily

as we was watching the sky

[white glen]

Had that happen whilst testing mod compatibility in my mod-pack on a custom moon. I'm still experimenting with SkinWalkers mod trying to find a good rate for the vocals to be played by the masked men but havent had it actually work yet

so i probably need to increase the chances by a ton

[keen kiln]

i just divided by 2

so it's twice as much talking

[white glen]

i think i set it to 1.5 but honestly 2 might be the best option

[keen kiln]

or multiplied, i don't remember if there's delay or rarity in config

[peak geyser]

Same and I disabled it for most of the enemies

[keen kiln]

yes

i keep it on only for masked and brackens

both of them can surprise to say the least

[white glen]

I dont use it for any other creature, only the masked men. i know it works for other creatures like the eyeless dog

i might reenable the eyeless dog so it fits the SCP theme

[peak geyser]

I did dogs/ghosts/coilhead/imposter

The dog allows for some scary coincidences when you hear them outside the ship trying to trick you to open the door

[white glen]

My only complaint about that mod is the pitch changed voices on the creatures

[peak geyser]

oh I love it. One time when we were first using it we heard a dog repeat my friend saying "I need to shmoke this shit rq" but it was in a demonic pitch and slowed down a bit

[white glen]

Check out CoilHeadStare from TwinDimensionalProductions

[keen kiln]

it fits too, mimics are not perfect but they're trying

[peak geyser]

Already have it homie 😎

[white glen]

Based

[keen kiln]

by the way i can suggest installing too many emotes as well, it makes masked use emotes before vomiting on you

[white glen]

Its shocking how quickly modpacks can bloat up

[keen kiln]

making them even more funnier

[peak geyser]

Yep already got that too

[peak geyser]

https://clips.twitch.tv/StupidEasyJayTriHard-QOkg4UVgBbqId4hc This is the game after I got grabbed by that fake imposter of my friend outside the door

[keen kiln]

🤣

my friend made me run in circles around whole facility today

cause he was silently following me and making emotes

i also use mod that hides player nicknames

so i was so damn sure he's masked

[white glen]

@peak geyser This was my run with the masked man. sadly only got it clipped with like 5-6 frames with the guy in it

[high pelican]

Yo when it says attempt to attacak is made, does that mean when it grabs someone or when it starts a charge and a lock on the player?

attack**

in configs for the reveal mask option

[next blaze]

I plan to work on that after I finish ironing out bugs with the v3 release

[ionic cypress]

bump

[winter thicket]

its for when the mask would normally raise their arms, so when they start to charge the player a little after they lock on

[high pelican]

Oh alr cool
