@nahuelbarcelo2016 Added Lambda Player Support

oh and it ignores aiignoreplayers for some reason

it's cool that this npc now has npc targeting, but what about lambda players

@chernobyllyn looking into the issue

someone made a similar video to this addon but it only stood and watched

For some reason this addon also breaks interaction with ragdolls (even standard ones): they don't have collision and Ragdoll mover tool doesn't work on them. Unsubscribed, unfortunately.

не работает. Чела заспавнил, но он ничего не делает

question: can he interact with wiremod things? lights, lamps buttons etc.

Ts broken

weird the addon fixed itself on 64 binaries lmao (prob some addon conflict but i couldnt tell which one)

why do the light not flicker for me?

this addon still works on the 86-64 branch for me

this addon doesnt work on 86-64 branch beta but still good and spooky addon

@Iwasnotfound595 Better Movement v2

What are the movement mods you used in some of the videos/gifs?

Idea for update:
White guy, he appearing very fast, and don't give chances to survive, he not like shadow guy, you can't spawn him, he spawns naturally, but you can disable it in utilites, and yes, he can fly and jump, so you can't escape him (and this "flying" is noclip, activates when you in unreachable zone or under textures or smth, and when it chases you it plays VERY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ LOUD scream)
So it's just a bit more agressive and dangerous version of shadow guy, and yea, you can't escape him, he not dissapearing even with map cleanup, he will dissapear forever only when will kill you, if you don't wanna do his spawn naturally, just place him in spawn menu, and when it will chase you on your screen will appear big red text:
RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN
(this text will be in every corner of the screen for 10 seconds)

He a deadly boi

what would be cool is if he could randomly kill your spawned NPC's, and especially without showing it in the killfeed. that way it makes it look as if they died under very strange circumstances

i mean the main complaint of this is it cant kill npcs, if it could then thats amazing

What I mean, again, is that besides from the nextbot being very cool and unpredictable, you could also change his appearance by making him more transparent. I don't know how much more explanation you need. It would be cool if you could change the transparency of the Nextbot, or the other thing I mentioned: change the shape of the shadow to make it look more realistic, but I get it's just a blurry shadow, so no need to do that if you don't want to.

@RedPie explain more

9/10. I really wish that the Nextbot was slightly animated and had as well a different shape, because this one is kinda visible and doesn't look too human. What I mean is that it would really work that you made the shadow a bit more transparent and moving like fog. Asides from that, it's a really cool mod!

10/10, paired this up with the terminator and changed the terminator model to a skinwalker and played the 4th recommended map

Can you name all the music you used?

it's chasing only host or all players?

@kuza IFL - CLIENTSIDE Improved Flashlight

wich flashlight mod you was using ?

@SleepyNotDead If i were to ever make him 3D, then it would be a custom model with an animation system. For example, something such as the Babadook. I can buy a model to use within Garry's Mod, and then rig it up or what not. However, I have no experience with any of that. So, adding that workload to the already complex (for me) systems creates burn out.

I could see the potential with a really creepy 3D model. I just want it to be a special model and not just something from gmod itself. I want my addon to be a whole package experience. A mod that offers something no other mod does. As of right now I have something amazing (imo).

I mean, I could look into it. I'm not really sure how feasible it is though. Maybe I can find someone who knows a lot about rigging/animations. Then include them as a contributor to the project. I could provide them the paid model. Then they could handle that part of development.

That's a shame..
I do hope you decide to do it at some point, i dont really agree with your reasons.
(aside from the difficulty of adding it, that is valid and i understand not doing it because of that alone)

A 2D sprite of sliding towards you is already kind of goofy, im not sure how a 3D model sliding towards you would look any worse, especially if its given a floaty animation.
(didn't mean actually make it noclip, just using those animations for a floating ghost kinda look)

Still an impressive nextbot though.
Fantastic work still.

@SleepyNotDead There are no plans to make him 3D. I'm not saying it’ll never happen, but we have other things to focus on right now. Keeping him 2D simplifies the already complex code. Making him 3D would just add extra work I don't feel like dealing with at the moment.

I get why some people want him to be 3D, but it would honestly just look goofy. It would be a model running or walking at you. Taking a model and making it “black” is a cool idea in theory, but it comes with its own problems.

If I just set it to "noclip," I imagine it would cause issues with the navmesh. And at that point, it's just a model in a pose sliding toward you, which would look goofy and kill the creepy vibe. The reason it’s unsettling is because it’s 2D. If it were 3D, I don’t think it would work the same. This Nextbot was built from the ground up to function as a PNG. I can’t just slide in a 3D model at this point in development.

Spawning like, a large horde of them is very fun lmfao
becomes chaotic

An idea if you ever do decide on giving it a 3D model.
A standard citizen playermodel, darkened and made to look like a shadow man, and give it the animations of an idle unarmed player using noclip, so it still creepily floats towards you without having to worry about walking anims.

This looks very impressive.
Really hoping its given a basic 3D model at some point though, only thing i dont like about it.

@Swiftie Hale Maybe soon

I just want to know one thing. Can i kill it? I'd like to have the choice of defending myself

New Update Coming Soon

Is it supposed to stay in one spot or is it supposed to move?

@SPAMELLE Shadow Guy can't play jazz because he has no fingers

nvm its fazbears forgotten

which map was in the first gif? the one with barney in it

0/10 doesn't play jazz

@Ghost Shadow Guy is in your pc. He is gmod, you can't kill him unless you want your session to be destroyed.

Can it be killed by military addons? lol

How do I open the settings menu for him

The EMF meter is from "Ghost Hunting Utils [SWEPs & SENTs]"

Hey, just so people know, if the mod doesn't seem to be activating and you can't find the nextbot and utility menu, it's likely because you have the original nextbot installed and enabled. Disable the original addon and it should work.

no

He'll randomly spawn? no need to spawn him in everytime?

spawn menu in paul reiveres nextbots

How do I spawn one in?
