The Faceless Stalker v1.2.1 [v73]

[velvet lion]

Ill try to take a look at in in august

[regal crypt]

This is happening for a lot of enemies

I think it’s more viable for someone to make a general patch bc I’m assuming it has to do with a common AI targeting method

Rolling Giant and a few others from Ooblterra are having kill / targeting RPC exceptions spammed in the console periodically

[velvet lion]

oh

well yeah in that case such patch could also help

[regal crypt]

he has killed you?

or your team mates?

[simple path]

WAIT WHAT

Nuh uh

Slenderman killed?

[regal crypt]

wdym

[simple path]

You just responded to this guy

saying it works just fine for him

meaning Slenderman would be able to kill

[regal crypt]

U can’t assume these things lmao

[simple path]

Dude I know that

Cuz all the monsters' killing ability broke

if they used "KillPlayer"

[regal crypt]

So have u seen the slenderman successfully kill a player in v56?

[simple path]

Not just yet

but if it uses "KillPlayer"

it won't kill them unless updated

if it doesn't

it'll do damage as normal and kill the player over time

however fast it does

And it appears the Slenderman uses "KillPlayer"

[regal crypt]

Oh okay see that’s why I was asking that guy for clarification lol

He said “it works fine for me” just cuz he SAW slenderman

[simple path]

Ah okat

okay*

[velvet lion]

So I assume the mod works mostly fine, it's just that players are not instakilled by slenderman

[twilit remnant]

Iirc theres a new killplayer function and that might ve why old enemies are broken with killing cuz they arent calling the correct function anymore

[velvet lion]

yeah, I agree with what was said earlier that a general patch mod for that would probably be the best solution

since it seems like not only the facelessstalker mod has this issue

[twilit remnant]

Yeah something that possibly makes the old function call the new one but its ve up to someone who kbows how to codd rhat to do it and if they find the effort to do that worth it

[velvet lion]

might be able to check that in the future, but again this month I dont have much time due to studying, hopefully in august I will have more time for lethal company stuff

although my modding knowledge in c# is very limited still

[regal crypt]

According to @thick steppe it’s a two-line fix I guess

So maybe unlikely there will be a general patch for it

[thick steppe]

Yup, compile against the new version and you're good. (You'll have to update any code that calls KillPlayer)

[regal crypt]

I miss this enemy

[regal crypt]

ah i just read the rest of this

well hopefully someone can make a patch?

but it doesnt seem feasible from what ive seen coders say

[velvet lion]

I can take a look at it in a few weeks

The mod is NOT abandoned, don't worry

[proud magnet]

Great to hear

One of my faviroite favorite

[primal wyvern]

the only problem with this mod is that slenderman doesn't kill you

but everything else works just fine

[proud magnet]

Ye but that’s the main thing

[primal wyvern]

yea lol he isn't a threat right now

he's just there

[velvet lion]

glad to hear :p

[velvet lion]

just chilling & stalking the player

didnt know he was chill like that

[regal crypt]

Gooning for the day this mod comes back

[primal wyvern]

no diddy?

[regal crypt]

No diddy

[velvet lion]

what do I have to replace KillPlayer with?

[thick steppe]

You sort of just recompile against the updated DLL.
The arguments to KillPlayer changed its signature.

[velvet lion]

so no need to change the code at all?

[thick steppe]

I mean, Ctrl+Click on KilPlayer and look at its arguments.

It may have updated (int -> float) for instance

[velvet lion]

okay

sorry its been a while since Ive used c# :/

[thick steppe]

It's some silly small change like that, <1 line.

Nah, you're good 🙂 It's a silly change to break things.

[velvet lion]

I need to re import/re select the dependencies though I assume?

oh man not even sure how to do that anymore neither the whole compile stuff

ugh I gotta check in the wiki someday

[near kestrel]

👀

if this gets updated I'll be able to add it to my every enemy pack

[velvet lion]

ye I forgot this whole dependency and compiling stuff

I gotta reread about this stuff before I can work on the mod

[hardy carbon]

Yeah I'd love to see this updated cuz otherwise he works fine

Just can't, uh, rip my spleen out

Which defeats the purpose of him coming for my spleen

[velvet lion]

afaik hamuniis lethallib is not up to date

I'll wait till its up to date and then I can read about compiling stuff and netcode patching again, but I think it will take a while

[hardy carbon]

I think LethalLib is up to date? At the very least it works fine with LLL

[restive trout]

as far as I know it is updated, but I might be wrong?

@potent wigeon skibidi or whatever you kids say these days

[potent wigeon]

skibidi what

LethalLib is up-to-date, but LC-ExampleEnemy's Unity project isn't up-to-date. Which, you can simply run NomNom's unity project patcher to get an up-to-date Unity project

but you don't necessarily need an up-to-date Unity project if you don't use new stuff in your enemy

[velvet lion]

Skibidi

[velvet lion]

Okay

[velvet lion]

Idk i have become too stupid for that

I'll have to re learn lc modding eventually

[potent wigeon]

There is a PR from Xu to update the Unity project for v56 but it had some issues like discord source files for some reason not being stubs so I'm not 100% confident in it

[velvet lion]

Hmm

[potent wigeon]

and my issue is that I'm on Linux and Unity works like shit so I can barely run the project patcher myself

[velvet lion]

All good

Again, I'll take a look at updating this mod eventually, but I forgot about most of the unity + compiling + patching stuff and everything related to it

So it'll take longer than expected I guess

[potent wigeon]

but ye don't worry about it, in the end it's pretty simple tho

[velvet lion]

Sorry you folks have to wait so long

Been very busy with work and studying the last months so modding came pretty short

[potent wigeon]

Actually though, to make your mod compatible with v56, you just have to pretty much make sure that you fix the errors that your IDE shows when referencing the v56 assembly

and the thing that broke v50 to v56 is fixed by simply just recompiling your mod

so no need to do anything for that

[velvet lion]

It's also the recompiling stuff

Don't I have to re import the asset dll?

Was it asset

Lc's main dll

I can't find the nuget packet manager anymore

It's stuff like this

These little things that hinder

[potent wigeon]

You could replace the manual assembly references with the gamelibs package, like this:
<PackageReference Include="LethalCompany.GameLibs.Steam" Version="56.0.1-ngd.0" PrivateAssets="all"/>

[hardy carbon]

Yeah I had to disable Faceless Stalker in my pack and I want them to be able to mangle me again I will figure this out using the open source code myself if I have to

[potent wigeon]

also though, assuming you used an old LC-ExampleEnemy version by today's standards, you could take a look at how LC-ExampleEnemy now configures it's references in the csproj: https://github.com/Hamunii/LC-ExampleEnemy/blob/main/Plugin/ExampleEnemy.csproj

[potent wigeon]

Also needs a csproj.user file, for which there is a template for that in the readme

[velvet lion]

Pfffffd

Well I'll take a look at that soon, thanks

[velvet lion]

I'll let you know when it's updated

[hardy carbon]

Yay

[velvet lion]

@here The Faceless Stalker has now been updated to v56! It's now able to damage players again. Sorry for the long wait, was very busy the last few months. Thanks for your patience and enjoy!
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/

@hardy carbon @regal crypt there you go

oh wait is it lethal company v55? I thought there was a v56 update recently

doesnt matter though it should work fine regardless

[hardy carbon]

Yeee it's v56

Tysm

[proud magnet]

Let’s goo

[hardy carbon]

Now that it's updated and functional, I wanted to ask: would it be possible to make him target the person that picked up the Page, rather than his current behavior which seems to just be "aggro whenever a page is picked up"?

Cuz I've found that people like to yoink the pages and Slenderman has a tendency to kill me for it instead of them

[velvet lion]

hmm

in theory it would be possible

however

as in right now he usually targets the player with the highest item money value in their inventory

I could maybe add it as a config option in the future

personally I think its just fun to you know pick up a page and have a chance that slenderman all of the sudden jumpscares a player who wasnt aware of the page

but I get what you mean

[hardy carbon]

Gotcha. I think it makes more sense for him to target people with the Pages, but adding a config or even a configurable chance (for example, like X% chance to go after the Page person) would be cool

Just makes there feel like more counterplay tbh

[velvet lion]

gotta get back into all this modding stuff first but eventually Ill probably be able to add that

[hardy carbon]

I'm not currently sure what other counterplay there is to him tbh lmao, feels like once he's pissed you're kinda just dead which is unfortunate

[velvet lion]

well

he does ||change targets after the player spots him 8 times||

theres no "direct" counterplay except for, you know, keeping him distant

as the one page suggests :P

the closer you let him creep towards you the higher the chance of a chase and therefore death

but honestly I think thats fine

thats the price you pay for picking up the high value pages

what you can also do during a chase is ||if youre not the haunted player and you step in line/collide with him he will not kill you, disappear & switch targets to haunt you from now on||

hmm I wanna add more enemies with custom behaviour, not just "roam around and chase" but yeah modding knowledge and stuff

[hardy carbon]

||Interesting, so he functions the opposite of Ghost Girl, where she wants you to not look at her, he kinda forces you to||

[velvet lion]

indeed

[hardy carbon]

It's a little too hard to keep him distant right now I feel since once he aggros he's just too fast to keep distant

[velvet lion]

yup

hmm

maybe I could add more voice clues

at least inside the facility its hard tho, yeah

[hardy carbon]

Mhm

Also can he follow you outside or is he kinda just locked inside?

[velvet lion]

well I havent played lc for months, but i wanna get back to playing it tthen I can test it a bit and see what I can do to improve him

[hardy carbon]

I've never seen him outside which is why I ask, it'd make sense if he could follow you out like the Ghost Girl

[velvet lion]

once the player is further away than 100m he'll enter his absent state

meaning he'll disappear

in theory if not further away he can follow you outside

yes

[hardy carbon]

Gotcha, it'd be cool if you could detect an EntranceTeleport and have him teleport with if he's within 100m before the teleport

But this is good information since I know a few people who don't like him cuz they think he's OP, now I understand him a bit more and can try to counterplay him

[velvet lion]

an idea I have in general would be that he prefers targets that are alone, as in not in a group

[velvet lion]

well, again I gotta say yeah, he is hella strong but at the same time you gotta remember that naturally he will only spawn if a player wants him to spawn

due to pages

thats the deal you make

you either take the risk of getting your squad killed by slenderman but have a high money reward, or you leave the page be

[hardy carbon]

That I do like the idea of, perhaps even tying it to the number of pages collected, so like 1 page he'll only target you if you are alone, 2 pages he'll target groups of 2 or less, etc

[velvet lion]

if you think he is too strong you can also take a look at the config

you can tweak many things about him, e.g. chase time, stalking time etc

if you want him to have a longer stalking phase you can change that

[velvet lion]

it'd be awesome if I could make it work that he gets progressively more aggressive the more pages are picked up

like in the real game

but again my current lack of modding knowledge prohibits that

[hardy carbon]

And yeah I do getcha, I haven't messed around with it too much and didn't find him problematic personally, only real issue I had was with him was getting murdered when I had nothing to do with the Page being collected

[velvet lion]

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.5 [v56]

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.6 [v56]

[hardy carbon]

And that's fair, there's no rush, I'm just throwing out ideas. His speed and stalk distance would be easy variables to change on Page pickup imo since you can already detect that, make him faster with more pages

So like you can outrun him with 1 page once he enters pissed mode, but 2 he's faster than you, and 3+, God help you

[velvet lion]

Yeah that's a good idea ngl

[hardy carbon]

Always trying to help

Honestly making him more aggressive per page actually doesn't sound too hard either, you just reduce the stalk timer per page which will make him attack more frequently

If those are already configurable then you have it set up as variables you can alter during gameplay

[prime bear]

The only issue is making sure that picking up the same page doesn't trigger it again and stack. Currently if you collect a page and then on the next run you pick it up it will trigger him. Could see a troll on the team just drop pick up drop pick up drop and so on just to stack it 😆

[somber shard]

this is great, thanks for the update! I didn't tell my crew the mod was broken, so they all got cocky in thinking they can outrun him. I can't wait to shatter the illusion that they're skilled the next time we all play

[prime bear]

Oh god yes! They will freak out!

[velvet lion]

Hehe

[main scroll]

Not sure if it's the custom moons but Slender doesn't seem to attack as often as he used to. Could it be the moons?

[velvet lion]

Yes

Depending on the amount of opportunities to hide

[velvet lion]

@here https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/ updated to v60

might take a few minutes to upload

[proud magnet]

lets goo

[empty elbow]

sorry to bother but how does configuring slenderman to spawn on custom moons work? I know it was added but not sure if I can just type custom:50 or whatever or need to individually enter each custom moon name

[velvet lion]

Either that or you can do All@20 for example
All means the same value for every moon tho
Afaik there's currently no other way to individually assign weight to moons unfortunately, it's much work adding every single moon hence why I made All@15 default

the spawn config means the chances of Pages spawning, not slenderman itself

if you set slenders default spawn chance higher than 0 he can spawn on every moon with that chance

[proud magnet]

You should put v60 in the title

[velvet lion]

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.7 [v60]

thanks

:P

[main scroll]

Not sure why I'm having so much trouble but Slender doesn't seem to pop out to attack. He only stalks or becomes scannable.

Ill keep messing around, see if he actually pops up

[prime bear]

He kills for us. He is mean

[main scroll]

No luck, weird. Do I need more than 1 player?

[prime bear]

Could also be a conflicting mod.

Are you picking up the pages?

He will only spawn when you grab one.

[main scroll]

Yes

[velvet lion]

but he does enter his stalking phase?

sometimes its just bad luck

usually good luck tho (if he doesnt attack)

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/ recompiled, should work fine in v61 now

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.8 [v61]

[sleek abyss]

@velvet lion

[main scroll]

It plays the spawn sound, but I never see him, even while standing still for a whole in game day lol. I'll try the new version and see if it'll work.

[velvet lion]

Awesome😆

I'm really happy about mithzan using the mod, they even put it in the thumbnail twice

I really appreciate that, always happy to see people having fun with and getting scared by the slenderman:P

[prime bear]

Dude! he just popped up in the middle of my ship last night from the floor and now i'm billing you for new pants.

[velvet lion]

nice :D

you see, when you are the one that creates a new enemy to the game you know all its mechanics inside out

so its hard for me to get scared by him since I know exactly how he can spawn, where some of his spawn spots are on certain maps etc :D

but I love seeing clips where people are jumpscared by him >:)

[main scroll]

Is this anything to worry about?

Reinstalled Slender but still have an issue with him spawning at all. I'm not sure if its a mod conflicting but I don't have many mods

I don't know what I did but I finally saw him lol

[velvet lion]

Oh

Imma take a look at that

Weird

[velvet lion]

@main scroll when does this error trigger?

thats odd

{
    if (!switchedHauntingPlayer)
    {
        switchedHauntingPlayer = true;
        ChoosePlayerToHaunt();
    }
}```

thats the line

were all players dead?

[main scroll]

I haven't been able to replicate it but when it does, I'll clip it

[velvet lion]

okay

[main scroll]

No it was just ne

[velvet lion]

so its not a continuous error?

as in permanent spam

[main scroll]

Yeah but it was that one time

[velvet lion]

weird

[spice wedge]

dude Slender Man scared the absolte hell out of me

u got me back for calling it goofy originally

[velvet lion]

Hehe

Fr though I really enjoy the clips where he scared you guys :P super happy to see you like the mod and still play with it!

[spice wedge]

I try to switch out mods every now and again but always return to ones I like

[fringe cove]

does anyone know if this is compatibile with v62?

[languid blaze]

how can i jsust make slender go to all moons?

just All@20 or something?

[velvet lion]

man

yet another update

ugh

it should be compatible

[velvet lion]

page spawns yes

i wont update to v62, just gonna wait till v63 or 64 I think

it is compatible tho no worries

[fringe cove]

Thanks!

[velvet lion]

@main scroll did you encounter the error again or has it been gone?

[main scroll]

Haven't encountered it

[velvet lion]

Nice

[primal wyvern]

Is slenderman killable?

and if you do "kill him" and then pick up another page does he respawn?

[velvet lion]

No

You cannot kill the slender

It's omnipresent

It's omnipotent

You can't escape it

https://tenor.com/view/wide-slenderman-slenderman-gif-26499916

[eternal moss]

im not gonna lie this monsters appearance was the scariest time of all time when i played lethal

me and my friend was ontop the ship

and my other friend was below

and boom

in a milisecond

my friend below got mauled to death

we quickly went down and launched the ship

tbh

one of my favorite monsters

[velvet lion]

glad to hear that!

[crisp drum]

is there any way to counter slenderman?

he's been spawning inside the facility, and when he does, there is practically nothing to fight back. it becomes a waiting game

[proud magnet]

Don’t pick up the papers

High risk high reward

[crisp drum]

i set him to spawn naturally

[proud magnet]

Well then you gotta except that

[crisp drum]

because ive never seen the papers spawn

never found em

[proud magnet]

It’s not meant to be spawned naturally

[proud magnet]

I find em pretty often just increase there chance in the configs

[crisp drum]

alright

ill give it a try

i assume that there is literally no way to counter him, though?

[proud magnet]

Yea besides running to the ship

But I mean it also takes him a while to actually start killing you

[primal wyvern]

Maybe don’t look at him lol?

[velvet lion]

Inside nor really, outside the facility Listen to the spawn sound and if you hear it check your surroundings to keep him distant

[velvet lion]

If you don't look at him he will eventually reach you and attack

Another counter is to stay in a group and in a chase make someone non haunted reach the stalker

[hardy carbon]

Yeah you want to actually look at him as it effectively stuns him

To a point

So if you know he's stalking you, keep your head on a swivel and don't let him get too close

And once he's stalking you, just leave ASAP as you're his target, similar to Ghost Girl

[long berry]

really love the mod! wish the static effect was used

[velvet lion]

Thanks

Tried it once, spent too much time with no results unfortunately

[long berry]

that's alright

slender man kinda like a cooler ghost girl

[velvet lion]

:>

maybe I can make it in the future so that he only appears to a non-haunted ghost girl player

to add a bit of variety

maybe also Herobrine integration as well

then there are 3 different ghost-type entities and only one can haunt a player at a time

[proud magnet]

I think adding some new mechanincs to slender man would be cool too, like maybe like the bracken personal space from the diversity mod

[velvet lion]

whats the personal space?

I havent used diversity yet, I think one of its core mods showed up a malware sign at virustotal

[proud magnet]

basically when the bracken "kills" you, it sends you to another dimension area, where it chases you and you need to run and do parkour over pipes, It would be cool if slenderman sent you to like a foggy forest

[velvet lion]

ohh

that sounds awesome

I was indeed thinking about pocket dimensions in general, similar to the backrooms for some future mod

[proud magnet]

I think a foggy forest would be epic

and you need to find a shed to escape

[velvet lion]

well I gotta find out hoiw these map-submaps even work at first 😅

[proud magnet]

ye

[main scroll]

Honestly, I'd love some mechanics with his tentacles. Like being able to break doors, crawl on the ceiling, or just impale survivors. Don't know if that'll be complicated but it can add some horror lol

He looks cool when he walks with them while remaining as static as possible

[main scroll]

Maybe only add static to the monitor and walkie talkies so communication is disrupted while he attacks

Of course just ideas.

[velvet lion]

at this time something like that would be too complex for me to add unfortunately

I imagined I could make slender have 2 attacks, the regular chase one and one where he creeps up and once he reaches you turns you around and jumpscares you similar to a masked

[main scroll]

Ah yeah that sounds cool. Like a bracken almost where he'll sneak up and then SPLAT Impale

[velvet lion]

yup

[main scroll]

That sounds cool

Add some horror

[velvet lion]

the next thing Imma add will be a new mod though with cosmic horrors/creatures that haunt the player

will be a separate mod, I'll make a thread about it once there is gameplay footage

[primal wyvern]

Sounds dope

[soft urchin]

Hi. Does this option make slenderman spawn on all the moons?

[velvet lion]

Yes

[prime bear]

Had a crazy moment. Slender was chasing his target, so I ran to intercept as the target did the same earlier for another person. Well target hits a mine and dies right as I'm behind slenderman, and well slender changed his target mid chase to me........greatest slender moment ever. The fear I felt watching my teammate die and Slender just turn around to look at me.

So yeah my head went pop 😆

[velvet lion]

lmao

https://tenor.com/view/clueless-aware-twitch-forsen-emote-gif-25354609

[long berry]

this is very cool

https://tenor.com/view/slender-slender-man-jumpscare-static-gif-27610197

like he makes contact with you and does this and your head blows up

it would be cool if you get cut in half too sometimes

also i had a question, apparently slender man can go inside. someone said that it's impossible to counter him if he chases you indoors

i've never had this happen, what are the parameters for this?

also, how does collecting the pages work. if you get one, does he start stalking guaranteed?

[velvet lion]

not 100% impossible, but way harder than outside

[velvet lion]

yes

[long berry]

what if you get more than one?

[velvet lion]

before you collect a page, he will never spawn (except if you change the config)

[velvet lion]

more money for you

[long berry]

oh i see

[velvet lion]

right now the page amount doesnt affect his aggressiveness

as soon as you take the risk and collect a page he will start haunting for the rest of the day

[long berry]

ooh

very cool

[velvet lion]

so its a bit like with the apparatus

it can be worth it to wait until all regular scrap is inside the ship and collect pages as the last items

except if you want more tension >:)

then you can collect them early

[long berry]

me and my friends definitely collect them as they appear

we all love the slender man mod

oh yeah my last question was if i inserted slender man as an indoor enemy would it break him?

and would two spawn if a page was collected

[velvet lion]

I dont think it would break

[velvet lion]

no

at least I dont think so, when a slender enemy spawns it sets a global variable/int that checks the number of spawned slendermans

if a slenderman is already spawned (value >= 1) pages wont spawn another

[long berry]

okay good

i may or may not have had two spawn before but i think thats because i goofed something

[eternal moss]

i rememver getting chased my slenderman in the mental hospital interior

thank god my friend was at ship

[velvet lion]

speaking of the mental hospital interior, is it still compatible with v62?

I think ive heard somewhere that it isnt but I am not sure

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.8 [v61/62]

[deep salmon]

whether it is or not, the latest iteration would randomly crash our games upon selecting Online

[velvet lion]

Yeah I think I had read about a CTD caused by it as well

Hmm

[deep salmon]

it's a shame. the interior is fantastic.

[velvet lion]

indeed

luckily there are many new interiors by now though

for now I guess I will disable the hospital one

[eternal moss]

it is

i mean

it worken when i tried

with

62

i think it only works in assurance

https://medal.tv/games/lethal-company/clips/izJ6Q8RXz9z62usIW/d1337E16BS6B?invite=cr-MSxlRWssMTk0MjQ4ODQ4LA

Slender was chasing me with The Fiend, they thought I was an Avengers Level threat (The guy running near the end is me)

Better clip (my pov)

https://outplayed.tv/lethal-company/Qdg6M4

[velvet lion]

lol nice

which interior is that=?

[primal wyvern]

that's the new mineshaft interior

for v60 update

[velvet lion]

oh lol

nice

[main scroll]

Yeah, he works well with it

[long berry]

where does the omori fear sound come from

[tough niche]

what would you put in the config to allow pages to spawn on any modded moon?

is it just Modded@15

[sinful violet]

I do All@15 for both vanilla and modded but not entirely sure for specifically modded if modded@ works

[tough niche]

alright thanks

[tough niche]

would that override something like Artifice@30 tho?

[sinful violet]

honestly not sure you would have to ask the mod author :P

[tough niche]

alright

[velvet lion]

Honestly I am not sure as well

What I did for my newest modpack was All@15,Vow@20,etc

I think it overrides but not 100% sure

[tough niche]

i can confirm, Modded@12 works

[drowsy locust]

@velvet lion could you push the commits from 1.1.7/1.1.8 to GitHub?

[marsh parcel]

I love this mod a lot. Ever since getting into LC modding I've been wishing for a mod like this, and it satisfies all the key points. I think the progression of stages is basically perfect. Are you open to feature suggestions?

[sacred cradle]

Might be a good idea as the dev to do maybe something like All@25 for the defaults as an update

[velvet lion]

Yeah

Will Do that when I update

[velvet lion]

Sorry, I thought I responded but apparently the message was not sent

Ofc I am open for suggestions

[dim lynx]

I'm either not paying attention (running too fast or dying too fast or too foggy), or being just really unlucky with silent mod incompatibility but every time I get this mod I can't recount seeing slenderman even once
will reply to this if I ever do but I've went through atleast 5 quotas with him

[velvet lion]

alone?

or with other players?

[dim lynx]

both

im gonna try again for 30m, solo

ahh because natural spawn is off by default and it's page spawn wise

but yeah got unlucky page wise

will be looking out for that then still

I think losing a chase to slenderman shouldn't always result in a death. It'd be cool if there was a chance slenderman teleported you back into the facility if he catches you while outside. Also, could you add a configurable option/chance for slenderman to turn someone he kills into a masked to simulate proxification?

Finally, I had an idea to make slenderman more punishing even in the case that you play against him correctly; each time you stall slenderman by looking at him, there is a chance (higher chance the closer he is) your character will start coughing which emits a sound and deals 1 damage. If a character dies from coughing, they turn into a masked. You could sample coughing noises from Marble Hornets to add authenticity.

[marsh parcel]

Also, how feasible is it to implement a feature where slenderman becomes more aggressive the more pages a particular person has interacted with?

[velvet lion]

honestly I have no idea how to make the masked spawn after a slender kill or the coughing stuff, my knowledge about LC modding is very very narrow unfortunately

[marsh parcel]

That's fair enough, and the mod is amazing already.

You have achieved a lot with what you currently know.

[velvet lion]

thanks, glad to hear:)

[marsh parcel]

@velvet lion what's the internal name for the faceless stalker entity

[velvet lion]

SlendermanEnemy

[raw tulip]

Does this work in v64? I assume yes

[velvet lion]

it should, yes

[marsh parcel]

I've been playing with it for a couple weeks and have noticed no bugs.

[velvet lion]

Nice

[rare holly]

Question
Since i am messing with scrap rates for every moom with LQ, how would that work with this mod's papers (since i assume you need them to trigger him to spawn if he is on the list of entities for the moon)?
Like can your mod override and force the paper to spawn regardless of what scrap is set on the moon? Or do i need to add it manually and balance the weights right?

[velvet lion]

I guess LQ overwrites the mod config

you could test it out by setting the mod config to 0 and LQ to 1000

or vice versa

[rare holly]

Fair enough, ty

[marsh parcel]

What is slenderman's power ranking?

I'm trying to make it so he's a guaranteed exterior spawn on a certain moon. Oh, also, would it cause any problems to add the Pages from this mod to a map via LLL, or to make Slenderman a natural interior spawn on a particular moon also using LLL?

@velvet lion

[velvet lion]

uhhh 1 I think

[velvet lion]

I dont think it should cause problems, the enemy usually checks before spawning if there is already one existing in the current map and if yes it wont spawn twice

[marsh parcel]

Oh, so slenderman pages spawn in a similar way to circuit bee nests but interior?

[marsh parcel]

the setup I'm working on uses LLL||https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/IAmBatby/LethalLevelLoader/||, Wesley's Moons||https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Magic_Wesley/Wesleys_Moons/||, PsychSanctum||https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Tolian/PsychSanctum/|| and Dantors' Mental Hospital||https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Dantor/Dantors_Mental_Hospital/|| all together to enhance the vibe of this particular mod. here's the loot list I created for LLL to apply to the PsychSanctum moon:
||Documents:51,Stapler:48,Mug:45,Old phone:39,Old Computer:36,Page:36,Book:36,Pill bottle:36,Chemical bottle:33,Syringe:30,Test Tube Rack:27,Possessed Walkie:24,Stun Baton:18,Camera:21,Security Camera:15,Fire Extinguisher:12,Glass Eye:24,Ribcage:21,Skull:18,Brain Jar:12,Typewriter:9,Magnifying glass:9,Bottles:36,Red soda:24,Jar of pickles:30,Tea kettle:21,Toothpaste:24,Brush:24,Perfume bottle:18,Raven Skull:6,Safe:3,Painting:3,Comedy:2,Tragedy:2,Bell:1,Plastic fish:1,Toy cube:1,Toy robot:1,Rubber Ducky:1,Clown horn:1,Candy:1,Teeth:1,Magic 7 ball:1||
this list uses loot items added by Wesley's Moons so plugging it into your LLL config without having that installed will not magically add the items from that mod into your game
I also changed the inside enemies spawning list
||SlendermanEnemy:48,Flowerman:36,Butler:30,Bunker Spider:24,Crawler:18,Hoarding bug:15,Masked:6,Girl:6,Clay Surgeon:9,Spring:3,Jester:1||
the outside daytime enemies spawning list (barely different than how the moon comes preconfigured)
||Docile Locust Bees:39,Manticoil:33,SlendermanEnemy:1||
and the outside nighttime enemies spawning list (pretty different)
||SlendermanEnemy:300,Flowerman:15||
unless i'm mistaken there can only be one slenderman on a moon at any given time so having all these redundant slenderman spawns should be fine and if not then this should give the impression that he's everywhere

[deep salmon]

||Dantor's interior can sometimes crash your game when selecting Online play before the main menu. i sincerely dont recommend||

[marsh parcel]

i wonder how to replicate that

is it an inconsistent issue? like does it seem to happen at random or is it every time

[deep salmon]

inconsistant

[marsh parcel]

rad

[velvet lion]

nope they spawn like any regular item

[velvet lion]

yeah ive heard that a few times

probably best not to use it till its fixed

[rare holly]

From my testing, the pages didn't rly spawn until added via LQ
I added page 1, cant remember if other ones showed up or not though

[velvet lion]

Hmm

[deep salmon]

doubt itll get fixed unless Dantor returns, and even then the crashes come from corrupted assets

[velvet lion]

Oh

It's a shame

Since the newer updates thr bunker interior has been lost, the hospital is broken, scoopys interiors are broken

:(

[rare holly]

huh? weird
You mean the Mental Hospital?
I've never had that, but i think i have the GI thing to skip straight to online on the menu so it never comes up

[rare holly]

They're classic but kinda dated
Both of Scoopy's work fine for me, its just the Dungeon and Sewer my players are rather bored of and they find the locked doors in the sewer frustrating
The bunker was always quite controversial though, always too large, looked a bit too low poly and the wide corridors made some enemies kinda awkward

[deep salmon]

even auto selection would sometimes cause a crash.
my personal pack and Lunxara's pack at the time shared numerous mods and we both had this issue. after hours of disabling each shared mod one by one, when disabling Dantor's, i was able to successfully reach main menu 50 times in a row.

[rare holly]

Odd, never had it once
Sounds like Dantors + something else i dont have causes it

[deep salmon]

trust me, i love that interior, too. it just grew so buggy when it didnt keep up with vanilla's later versions

[rare holly]

We do get times with turrets shooting us through walls though

[deep salmon]

i remember well that i was on the last category to test, and that category was interiors.

[marsh parcel]

Similarly I tried adding Pages to a moon's loot list via LLL and it didn't work; the only way to guarantee Pages will spawn on a particular moon is to register that moon in the Slenderman mod's own config.

The slender config has all the variables I personally needed so I don't see a problem with this, it's just a little weird and worth noting for other users

[velvet lion]

hmm

well in the next update imma just add a All@15

that should make pages semi rare

[rare holly]

Odd cuz i didn't need to do that

[velvet lion]

like one page in around every 4th to 5th match

[rare holly]

I just had to add the pages via lq to the moons i wanted
Didnt even need to add slenderman to the list of enemies

[velvet lion]

nice

[marsh parcel]

I don't know what a LQ is

[velvet lion]

lethal quantities

[marsh parcel]

what the fluff

[velvet lion]

I assume

it lets you assign spawn values to monsters afaik

[marsh parcel]

that's pretty sweet

is there an easy way to change the flavor text of modded moons or would i need to crack the mod open

ik this probably isn't the right chat for this but

[velvet lion]

no idea

sorry

[marsh parcel]

no worries

[rare holly]

Yes you can do thay

As well as the danger level text, cost, scrap rates and values, monster spawns, amount of scrap

Traps which you can't even do in LLL

The only thing you can't do is interiors iirc because it desyncs alot, do that in LLL

[marsh parcel]

u should replace the initial spawn sound with the first 13 seconds of this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOMY2jq9h4k

[marsh parcel]

it would also be pretty cool if there was a check when slenderman kills the last living player and causes the ship to leave that there would be a 1/100 chance of playing this song in its entirety
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sbbk_VMndsg

[sacred cradle]

@velvet lion Does Slenderman just have a ridiculous chance to only target the host or something? Cus I'm sort of getting tired of him constantly targeting me and noone else as of late

[velvet lion]

That's most likely bad luck

Did you carry items worth more than 100?

That increases chances of you being the target

Also low sanity

[sacred cradle]

Ohhh yeah maybe I did lol

I'm used to always carrying the highest scrap value items on me XD and generally leaving the cheaper loot behind

And yeah sanity is understandable

[velvet lion]

@here https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/ Now properly updated to v64, tweaked Slenderman's Summoning sound (lasts a bit longer now, incredible)
I'm trying to get back more into Lethal Company modding again, with a few ideas for new enemies, but it will most likely take a considerable while for me to get used to VS and C# again. As always, the mod might take a few minutes to update. Enjoy!

The Faceless Stalker v1.1.9 [v64]

[marsh parcel]

ooh what'd u do to the summoning sound

[velvet lion]

honestly just made it last longer :p

I found it wasnt noticeable at first

[sacred cradle]

If you want my values I set for the pages btw I did this

Modded@25,AssuranceLevel@5,VowLevel@20,MarchLevel@20,AdamanceLevel@20,EmbrionLevel@50,DineLevel@15,RendLevel@15,TitanLevel@10,ArtificeLevel@25

Cus All will override other values

[velvet lion]

thanks!

[sacred cradle]

Yw

[velvet lion]

i forgor to update the config I think

._.

will do that soon ™️

[sacred cradle]

You did update it to include All:10 in there but I imagine these values are better XD

[velvet lion]

:d

[sacred cradle]

[marsh parcel]

i have mine set so that the wooded planets have the highest chance of spawning pages and cold moons have a lesser chance while hot moons like assurance or experimentation have no chance of spawning pages whatsoever

[velvet lion]

That makes most sense yeah

[rare holly]

Same basically

[marsh parcel]

The one guy from Diversity who walks at you and if he catches you he teleports you somewhere random in the facility has really awesome VFX that I think would befit the Faceless Stalker extremely well, have you considered getting in contact with IntegrityChaos to ask how he did it?

[velvet lion]

It would benefit

I 100% agree

I can talk to IntegrityChaos, unfortunately though I have no idea how vfx effects work

Might reconsider that though at some point (tried to add a static vfx once but didn't work)

[sacred cradle]

I noticed it seems like Slendy sometimes spams navmesh errors after spawning

Even though he works fine, guessing he's telepoting off of the navmesh sometimes and it causes issues

[marsh parcel]

How many different pages are there?

[velvet lion]

4

[marsh parcel]

is it ok if I contact you privately?

[velvet lion]

ofc

I'm open for suggestions but I have to admit that LC modding is pretty frustrating as its way more complicated and you encounter many many errors way more frequently then in the other games I mod so

progress is slow

[rare holly]

How does taking MULTIPLE pages affect his aggression?

i understanding taking one begins the stalking phase n all that
But what if multiple are picked up? does it stack and make him aggro faster or something?

[marsh parcel]

I'm not a coder, but I had an idea. If there was a way to add to Slenderman's natural spawn weight depending on how many Pages were stored on the ship, it would simulate Slenderman following the players around between moons. I don't know how complicated that would be to implement, I don't remember seeing a feature like this in anyone else's mod.

Maybe it decides when the ship lands whether or not Slenderman will spawn that day and a script factors in how many Pages are on the ship when that happens; the natural spawn weight would be zero but say, +10 for each Page on the ship, so the likelihood you'll run into Slenderman actually ramps up throughout the week the more Pages your team has collected. He becomes more of a persistent threat the more you loot the moons his Pages are weighted to spawn on.

Also, if you added an option in the config to change the type of death from the kind the Ghost Girl causes to the kind the Masked causes, so that players killed by Slenderman became Masked, that would be cool. I shared an idea similar to this one before, but it was in a dump message with two other more complicated ideas.

[velvet lion]

doesnt affect him

no idea how to mod such thing

also my motivation to mod went near 0 for some reason recently, the next planned thing are new and improved page textures made by @marsh parcel but aside from that Ill have to see when I will add new things

[rare holly]

I guess, could be something like.. increasing the chase speed or reducing the stalk phase length for each collected

[rare holly]

Byeah is fine, its perfectly fine as is

[rare holly]

Actually, if this isn't already a thing, could you add support so that if the slenderman spawn cap is increased above 1 (either through your own config, or something like LethalQuantities), then have an option so that when another page is picked up, it will try to spawn another slenderman?

That would be interesting because it becomes a gamble as to how many you pick up
And if you leave it off by default, it wont bug anyone who dislikes it

[rare holly]

To my knowledge, that would mean the only change you need to make is when someone picks up a page, instead of checking if a slenderman is already there before spawning it in, you instead check if the amount of slendermen is at the cap or not
And the config for changing his max spawn ofc

[velvet lion]

problem is that when I tried this two slendermen hunting the same player was really weird due to them usually spawning in the exact same spot

[rare holly]

Damm that makes sense

i guess just increasing his speed or reducing the cooldowns could also work

[velvet lion]

I like the idea of reducing the cooldowns

that would really make an impression of being more aggressive

[rare holly]

i eagerly await the feature, if you do ever get around to doing it

[velvet lion]

dont get me wrong, I really appreciate all the suggestions

I really do

and I do plan on maintaining work on this mod and update it eventually

modding has just gotten a bit exhausting atm but I will get back to it soon

[rare holly]

Fair enough, dont push yourself too much, the mod is great is

[velvet lion]

thanks

[rare holly]

Sorry, lastly, another idea i had with a similar effect, is to actually have the page decrease in value until it is picked up

that would further incentivise collecting them immediately

risk/reward again

[marsh parcel]

i like where your head is at with that suggestion but i don't believe in punishing players for not happening to find the page items first while looting

if a feature like that was to be pursued i think it would be better if the page decreases in value after it has been scanned and while it isn't being held by a player or on the ship/at the company

i feel like this project should go on hiatus until the author has the energy to work on it, installing mods is frustrating even with a mod manager that smooths out all the hard work and so developing a mod for this game must be that amount of frustrating but multiplied by like 500

i know what it's like to promise labor to a project when you know you don't have that energy in your body at the time and how every time the project crosses your mind and you still don't have it you feel like an asshole, maybe marking the project as being on hiatus will make you feel less like "it should be any day now" and more like "i'll get back to this when i'm ready"

in the meantime i still love to share art and ideas related to this mod

Sparble, is it ok if i publish the textures i made in here?

[rare holly]

True
Tho my original suggestion was not that

It was to have something actually happen from taking multiple

[velvet lion]

ofc

sorry I did not have the time yet to add the textures ingame

[marsh parcel]

there is no need to apologize <3

i made 8 designs but i could theoretically make more just so that there is that much extra variety

[deep salmon]

faceless yippee bug, slenderman outfit, "???"

for a page

[deep salmon]

an example

[velvet lion]

dope :D

maybe the real faceless stalker was the hoarding bug all along

you stole a page from its nest now its hunting you

[deep salmon]

if it piques your interest enough, i can make it transparent and look a little crunchier

[loud hinge]

is this an entity that replaces the ghost girl, or is it a seperate kind of thing

[velvet lion]

separate

[loud hinge]

ty

[obsidian karma]

Does Slenderman now haunt inside the facility as well as outside?

[velvet lion]

always has

[hardy carbon]

Yeah in my experience it's just really rare for him to go outside

[sacred cradle]

Any chance you can add some checks at some point for him to not be able to teleport out of the bounds of moons or off of the navmesh? I've noticed he does this a lot and it leads to Navmesh error spam

[velvet lion]

When does he do that?

I'd need to know where to start

[sacred cradle]

It might honestly be a moon problem

I know it's happened on Boreal and @bright brook's Winter Lodge though

Other moons he is usually fine on

[sacred cradle]

Also dunno if this might be worth looking into fixing, I think this happens if he can't get to you when trying to kill you

[velvet lion]

did this error persist?

as in

did it continue spamming after the next day?

[sacred cradle]

I don't believe so no

[velvet lion]

update...

soon ™️

[dim lynx]

yay!!!!!!!!!!!

[deep salmon]

No Is One Safe

[rare holly]

Any chance this might be implemented with the new update?

[velvet lion]

Unlikely, I pretty much don't have time for mosding at all atm

Even adding 4 new pages is a struggle

[hushed laurel]

is there any way to avoid him in solo?

[velvet lion]

no

[dim lynx]

so just don't pick up his page

[velvet lion]

yeah

or pick it up as the last item

and rush to the ship

[hushed laurel]

okay thats what ive been doing i was just wondering if i had to do that or not

thanks

[tacit basin]

When you pick up the note again, when you fly to the moon, it activates the slender man again, is this the norm?

[dim lynx]

not intended but I get it

eitherway you only ever pick it up again at orbit or company so whatever

[velvet lion]

Weird

It did not do that previously

[sacred cradle]

I figured it was an intended feature tbh XD

[velvet lion]

so Ive tried to add new page items again, yet I'm unable to add new items due to NullReferenceExceptions and item raycast bugs appearing for whatever reason

if I ever manage to fix these bugs I will publish the update and that's probably it then for the mod

The Faceless Stalker v1.2.0 [v69]

[velvet lion]

@here The Faceless Stalker v1.2.0 features four new pages as scrap and new improved textures for the old pages. Huge thanks to @marsh parcel for making these textures!! Whilst my sanity has been reduced to ashes the mod now finally contains all eight pages, living up to the original Slender: The Eight Pages. You can now additionally inspect the items and the config spawn weight settings have been tweaked as well.
Have fun!

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/

[dim lynx]

on top of this, is the "pick up the page from last moon, to ship, from ship on next moon -> slenderman is spawned" bug considered a feature still or?

[dim lynx]

related to this

[meager ginkgo]

yippe bug variant looks 🔥

[deep salmon]

?

that page was added?

[meager ginkgo]

no im thinking in my head its a yippe bug with the slenderman tentacle while chasing u

[velvet lion]

Honestly I'm not sure how to fix it atm

So for now it's a feature

https://tenor.com/view/cool-thumbs-up-great-positive-happy-gif-13492343651858709594

[dim lynx]

babythumbsup

[meager ginkgo]

[dim lynx]

couldn't you theoretically have a 1 or 0 value on it that turns on or off the haunting property it? with it getting set to 0 forever on orbit

it's just guesswork though i don't think that's possible

[velvet lion]

Probably yeah

It does have sucht thing

It contains a bool variable (which can have the properties yes or no/true or false)

Which checks if the page had already been used/picked up once

For some reason it resets in orbit though

No idea why nor how to fix :/

[eternal stone]

@velvet lion One of the new pages seems to get stuck when selling it at the company.

Here's my mod manager profile code:

019434e5-a03d-61aa-ec22-bc52d36658d4

Love the new artwork though. Thank you for keeping this mod going, it's one of our must haves.

[dawn lynx]

Don't all items do that?

[velvet lion]

yeah

afaik once an item lays on the counter you cannot retrieve it anymore

also great player models lmao

[velvet lion]

glad you like it! Nat made the art though, so props to them :D

the new pages really blend in way better than the old ones

[eternal stone]

No like the scan node doesn't seem to work at all, and it would get stuck with the counter door open and never give us credit for the scrap item. It just gets stuck.

[velvet lion]

Weird

[eternal stone]

So I retested with minimal test mods, and it doesn't get stuck. So that must be from a mod incompatibility or something, but the scan node still seems to be missing from the "Missing Poster" lol. I tested scanning it repeatedly from different angles in the ship and off the ship.

I'll see if I can figure out what mod doesn't like that specific page, on my main mod pack, that's causing it to get stuck.

[eternal stone]

Okay, the counter door getting stuck open seems to be from LateGameUpgrades erroring out because the "TerminalNode" on the item is null.

[eternal stone]

They absolutely do blend in better. Thank you Nat!

[somber shard]

The new pages are so cool

I love the LC spin you put on them

[velvet lion]

Thanks to Nat!

She made the Page textures:)

[somber shard]

She did great! They're awesome

[dawn lynx]

Was playing lethal with a ton of buddies last night. As we were selling, I saw 2 of them looking at all the different pages. They're LOVING the new pages

[velvet lion]

glad to hear :D

[rare holly]

Just had an idea
Perhaps you could make it so each page has a chance to spawn slenderman?
Like sure, additional pages past that point still wont do anything once he spawns
But it would still mean there is an actual correlation with how many pages you pickup and whats going on with slenderman
Could do it so like, idk
First page is say.....20%
And then add a 10% chance each time a page is picked up on that moon

That sounds much simpler than trying to get multiple slendermen to work at once or to alter his behaviour from picking up pages

The lack of correlation between how many pages you pickup and slenderman himself is like my only gripe rly with the mod

[prime loom]

Sounds like it could be cool tho i think that'd require either making pages more common (because i wouldn't be surprised if it'd reset that kind of thing between moons) or make it so if you have pages on the ship that gets factored into chances on top of any additional pages collected on the moon

[rare holly]

It might do
As long as the chances per page / amount chance to add each time is configurable then its fine
Just balance the default values around the page spawn weight in comparison to vanilla scrap loot tables
Then if people are using packs that bloat the scrap pool more than they just need to increase the spawn rate or chance of it triggering
For default behaviour they can always just make the chance 100% on first page

The mod already lets you control the spawn weights of the page

@here
It's been a year since the initial release of the Faceless Stalker Mod!
Can't believe how time flies.
I would have never expected for any of my mods to blow up like this. None of my other mods became as popular as the Faceless Stalker mod, and I would like to emphasize that all of this would have not been possible without you.
I want to thank every one of you for your support over the time, the feedback and the suggestions. I still remember when I first created this thread, having not much more than a very simple and niche small enemy addition in mind to finally make use of this old Slenderman model I created years ago. It was you guys who motivated me to keep working on the mod, even when I completely lost my desire to finish it due to some major annoying bugs (especially Slenderman's visibility...). When the mod finally released it were you who gave me feedback, pointed out bugs and suggested great features (a config would likely still not exist if it weren't for you...)! Not only that, but without this great modding community, many of my questions that came up during the mod development would have never been answered, and hence the mod would have likely ended up in my scrapped projects folder. Even though I couldn't manage to add some popular requested features such as the static distortion visual effect, the feedback motivated me to re-model the Slenderman, rework the animations and keep the mod updated over time in general. Your appreciation for the mod really means a lot to me, and from time to time I find myself thoroughly enjoying watching clips of your encounters with it!
Even though my modding focus has switched away from Lethal Company over time and I consider this mod to finally be fully finished, you can expect it to stay updated with the new game versions. Plus, you never know, perhaps I'll add a small addition or two in the future :)

Hence, to all of you, thank you very much for this trip, from the beginning to the end.
It truly has been a quite a ride <3

[deep salmon]

[somber shard]

One of my favorite mods for sure! Thanks for your hard work!

[edgy flare]

Can he appear inside or while your in the ship?

[hollow flume]

yep... theoretically

[hollow flume]

at least on mel's ship + wider ship, he's not screwing around
that's why theoretically

[edgy flare]

with default configs how long does it take slenderman to be able to chase you

also if u let slenderman spawn normally does he spawn outside or inside?

[hollow flume]

As long as you don't pick up the page, it doesn't matter
Usually inside where you grab the page and can follow you outside
And yeah, on default spawning method, he should spawn inside as well, unless you're outside, then he teleports near on the outside

[edgy flare]

I meant like if you have him spawn like any other enemy does he spawn through the vents or just outside

[solemn river]

he so scary

thats vow btw

[hollow flume]

[fresh thistle]

https://www.twitch.tv/xylophoneptz/clip/PreciousCrazyTortoiseNotLikeThis-vNC30zdlOgqP8_aE

funny doppler effect i guess

also is it supposed to be global?

[fresh thistle]

i think that doppler is happening because of him teleporting

it happened again specifically when he teleported away from a chase

[dark abyss]

So was supposed to slenderman be like this?

My stellaris mods already frustrate me enough with a recent major game update/code changes

[prime bear]

@velvet lion can confirm slenderman still works as intended. he has murdered people in my lobby last night. anyone reporting issues may have a broken mod installed that broke from the update.

[prime bear]

he works

[velvet lion]

Sweet, thanks for the feedback!

[prime bear]

No problem! Also got a bone to pick with ya! This mother F'er is still scary 😨 😆

Had one moment I saw him looking like he was crouching trying to be sneaky and im like I can you! Then he quickly gets up and POP really fast 😆 here i thought maybe he bugged out, maybe he's just chilling. Like no it felt like he baited me lol 😆 such an odd interaction.

Another moment we all heard and saw him outside our as part of him sort of clipped in the wall so we had no idea who was the target then we just hear our friends head go POP outside and then silence.

Thank you for the awesome mod!

[velvet lion]

Hell yeah

Glad you like it:)

[prime bear]

He's been one ive rotated in and out for awhile. He's one of the ones I like making disappear for a bit then readding without telling anyone so they can get caught off guard.

[solemn river]

hi helloo!!!!

i wanted to ask

if someone has been able to see slenderman lately

everytime i pick the notes it makes the sound, but then nothing happens for the rest of the game, or sometimes i get the fear effect but nothing there, or seeing the scan node of slenderman in the ground, as if he was there but theres nothing

idk its weird

wanted to ask if someone has been able to see him like constantly

[broken kraken]

Okay so

He does work

But he doesn't target the person with the page

Rather a random person very odd

But he sorta works

[solemn river]

mmm weird

i mean, lately i've just been playing alone

so being the only person it should target me either way yeah?

[broken kraken]

I haven't seen solo but every time I pick up the page someone else deals with slenderman

So he's semi working

[solemn river]

okok

gonna keep testing and see if i can finally see him

ty tho!

[main coyote]

He does work

I have had him show up before

[solemn river]

been trying since i sent the message, i still haven't been able to see him

could it be tied to the interior?

it always says this
[05:21:32.0701212] [Warning: Unity Log] Failed to create agent because it is not close enough to the NavMesh

only time i was able to hear him was when i went outside at 10 pm after grabbing like 4 pages

and there i heard him, but nothing else

and in the interior nothing

[hollow flume]

A lot unfortunately 😔

[solemn river]

can we like

change places pls

[velvet lion]

You can tweak his spawning chances in the settings

[fresh thistle]

Saw him at least twice in tonight's session

[solemn river]

How so??

I mean, what should i tweak for him to work for me??

Seems to be a me issue then

[sacred cradle]

@velvet lion Saw you deprecated the mod, does this mean you won't be coming back to update for v73 or did you just mark it for now since he won't work on the current game version?

[velvet lion]

ill update it eventually, but dont have the time for that atm

its been so long since ive worked on unity/LC mods that I will have to re read/get back into how stuff works

and I'm pretty busy atm so itll likely take a month or two

[sacred cradle]

Ah got ya

[quick kraken]

sorry to add another thing to your plate.. but.. the event that occurs when you pick up a page with your hands, could the same event be triggered with a beltbag picking it up? i had to reduce the page spawning count because there were so many pages, and i had to blacklist them to make them a threat because using a beltbag to pick them up led to the event not firing.

[velvet lion]

Odd

No idea honestly

[split kiln]

So does this mean it doesn't work properly with V73 and on?

[velvet lion]

I dont think so

[split kiln]

Ok thanks

[velvet lion]

ill let you know when its updated

[solemn river]

Take you time!!!! And ty

[chrome falcon]

Not if you get some fellas to help you👀 (But if you're not in the mood to do that then that's fine too)

[velvet lion]

I appreciate it, but I'd rather update it myself

I need to get back into c# anyway

Ill let you know when the update is out

[hollow flume]

I mean yeah, there are some people willing to help to recompile slendy to v73 at least
but that's up to you

[velvet lion]

Could someone link me an up-to-date recompilation guide for the newest lc version please

if such thing exists

[hollow flume]

@round spruce

[round spruce]

@velvet lion

[velvet lion]

thanks

whats CLI usage

?

and is there a guide again on how to build + patch the mod, its been a long while since ive modded unity games

[round spruce]

Do you have your old cli command

I don’t use the cli so I don’t know the full command, but you have to make sure it has the following options: -uv 2022.3.62 -nv 1.12.0 -tv 1.0.0. These options should NOT be duplicated. If your old command contained -nv 1.5.2, remove that. your command should look like:

netcode-patch -uv 2022.3.62 -nv 1.12.0 -tv 1.0.0 ...

I use post build personally so if that’s easier for you, you might wanna try that out.

[velvet lion]

whats CLI in general if I may ask?

not familiar with the term

[round spruce]

CLI is the command you run in the terminal after building your .dll to patch it. Command Line Interface.

With post build in the .csproj file, it will automatically run that command and patch the .dll.

[velvet lion]

ohhh

alr thanks

[round spruce]

But with CLI you have to run it yourself after building the .dll.

[round spruce]

Also make sure you update the netcode patcher

[velvet lion]

with this I assume?

ill try

thanks

[round spruce]

By running

dotnet tool uninstall -g Evaisa.NetcodePatcher.Cli

And then

dotnet tool install -g Evaisa.NetcodePatcher.Cli

That should bring you to update to date version

[velvet lion]

merci

has anything regarding privacy been changed with the new netcode patcher/compiling stuff?

even though its nothing essential e.g. im not a fan of errors showing the name in the file path and stuff

[round spruce]

I’m not sure, I think it’s the same as before. They updated the unity version and stuff netcode wise that it can patch so that mods will work with the new update.

[velvet lion]

alr, thanks

[velvet lion]

in the old command I patched only with 'netcode-patch (file path to mod)'

no other commands

[velvet lion]

I gotta get used to working with c# again, gimme another week

[solemn river]

No worries! Glad you are trying to revive the skinny man hehe

Take your time

[velvet lion]

Thanks

[solemn river]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hyppy-gif-9091438043443803258

[velvet lion]

So just to get it straight so far, I need the newest LC dependencies/assemblies (the .dll files iirc?) From the newest version, then get the newest version of network patcher, keep the code the same but recompile & patch

And that should be all right?

[broken kraken]

@solemn river

Can you fly like a bird

Just a question

[round spruce]

Yeah, if you link your dependencies paths to your game paths then you should only need to update your game. Then update the netcode patcher mod, then recompile and patch.

[round spruce]

If it’s easier you might wanna try the netcode patcher post build in the .csproj file, which took me like 5 minutes to update my mods with.

But basically these are all the things you need to do

• Update dependencies
• Update netcode patcher
• Change command to use new command that includes new unity version, listed in the instructions before
• Recompile and patch

[solemn river]

Idk if cheese can fly

But maybe

[broken kraken]

You never know

[velvet lion]

thanks

yeah its more that I want to know/jnderstand what exactly I am doing again when recompiling you know

so yeah gimme another week, Ill try to update it till then

and Ill let you know on any progress

but thanks for all your help, I appreciate it!!

[velvet lion]

why does lethallib now also have a file without a file ending

like no .dll

is it enough to just patch the mod with the LethalLib.dll

or do I also need to patch it with the "lethallib" file that has no .dll file format

[velvet lion]

bruh

error when compiling

and no clue why

MSB3073

has something to do with

   <Exec Command="netcode-patch -uv 2022.3.62 -nv 1.12.0 -tv 1.0.0 &quot;$(TargetPath)&quot; @(ReferencePathWithRefAssemblies->'&quot;%(Identity)&quot;', ' ')" />
 </Target>```

[robust quail]

Seems right, did you actually update netcode patcher via dotnet?

[velvet lion]

do i need to re install nuget or something

[velvet lion]

yes

dotnet tool uninstall -g Evaisa.NetcodePatcher.Cli
then
dotnet tool install -g Evaisa.NetcodePatcher.Cli

perhaps i need to update the files in the /bin/Debug or /bin/Release folder?

[robust quail]

They update on build

[velvet lion]

DissonanceVoip.dll, Assembly-CSharp.dll

etc

[velvet lion]

i cant build

[velvet lion]

always results in the error

wheres the web page guide that showed which files to copy inside the Release/Debug folder again

[round spruce]

What’s the issue

[round spruce]

What do you mean web page

[velvet lion]

All good

Working on it rn

[velvet lion]

Guess who's back, back again, Slendy's back, tell a friend

@here The Faceless Stalker v1.2.1 has been updated to Lethal Company v73 at last!
Huge thanks to @robust quail and @round spruce and all of you who helped me getting back into LC Modding (or at least updating :P).
As always, might take a short amount of time till Thunderstore has updated.
Have fun!

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Sparble/FacelessStalker/

[round spruce]

Amazing! Can’t wait to try it out.

[wide portal]

hey what was your solution? did you use the manual method from the github? '

[velvet lion]

everything done via NuGet now

or, well, the .csproj

[wide portal]

probably should've been my 5th step, appreciate ya

[solemn river]

So glad to see it back in action!!!!!

My boy slendyman im so happy

Ty sparble

Also you could update the thread name to say v73 now hehe

Also could you update your GitHub with the most recent code, just so the source code is not lost. A lot of other devs lost their source code because they forgot to update the GitHub.

[velvet lion]

will do that within the next week

[broken kraken]

Just a question rq

I've been noticing Slenderman doesn't target the player who took the page in V72

Was that... Perhaps fixed? Or was it just a net code patch

[velvet lion]

how so?

when I playtested everything worked fine

slenderman targeted a player and chased him eventually

[broken kraken]

Then it'll be fine

[quick kraken]

i think pineapple was asking if slenderman chased THE player who picked up a page, or A player. (ie, any). i always assumed it picked random.

[broken kraken]

IT DOES?

Well shit I thought it went after the person who picked up a page

[tardy fog]

Hey so quick question how did you get this mod to be updated with v73?

[quick kraken]

nah, i pick up pages sometimes on purpose just to spawn it and see which friend it targets xD

[velvet lion]

Update netcode patcher, install dependencies via nuget (not manually anymore

[solemn river]

hiiii Sparble

i have a few questions regarding slendy boy

does he get more angry the more pages you collect?

[velvet lion]

hello

good question

id have to look

I dont think he gets more angrier

[solemn river]

more angry meaning like

he will spawn more

like how the og slendy would

the more pages you get the more he appears

im trying to see him in game but i grabbed a page and nothing happened

[modest flint]

how are the page spawn weights calculated?

In v81

[velvet lion]

Unfortunate

Yeah mod is v73

Might update it at some point, once I find time to update

[round spruce]

I'm pretty sure it just needs a simple recompile with new game files, as other enemy mods had the same issue.

[velvet lion]

Yeah once i find time for that

Gimme one or two weeks

"Collect my V80 compat" as they'd say...

[velvet lion]

is there a guide on what i need to do to recompile correctly again?

i imagine I must update dependencies or something

[broken kraken]

Yeah basically

[round spruce]

Some classes/methods changed and I think some code got moved to a new .dll. Most mods just need a recompile with new .DLL file references, but it depends on the mod.

[velvet lion]

Again??

Ugh

Ill have to look

Will take a while

But i will update eventually

[velvet lion]

so, what exactly do I need to replace before re compiling?

been a while since I last modded unity games so

[round spruce]

You need to update your game files and make sure the reference paths in .csproj are towards the new files

[velvet lion]

What about hamuniis lethallib?

[chrome falcon]

I don't think that's the person who made lethal lib just an idea (Unless it's like an alt account or something).

[round spruce]

I don't think they made lethallib. But any dependencies, whether its game or mods, make sure your .csproj is referencing the new .dll versions.

[velvet lion]

oh yeah

its been a while

[velvet lion]

alright

thanks

will take a bit, not at home for a while and unfortunately no time this evening

but ill let you know when the update is here

[jade portal]

[chilly flax]

hope for the update O.O

[edgy abyss]

Just wanted to say that me and my friends really appreciate this mod! Thanks for all your hard work

[final pasture]

Yo

slenderman never spawns and attacks

we get the page like normal and he spawns and u can scan him but its invisible

[velvet lion]

Sorry haven't had time yet
