this mod used to be great and now its ruined. I spent over 10 irl minutes trying to figure out how to hotwire a hard difficulty car. Eventually I gave up because it takes too long to do. I do not recommend using this mod anymore.

Still working on 42.12.

Modder alive?

А то даже смешно, у меня на порядок (да, в 10 раз) чаще ломаются замки чем отмычки.

Великоват шанс сломать замок с отмычкой как по мне. Это не настроить? Идеально было бы в настройки вывести.

how do i switch lockpicking to skyrim one aka cricle

This is amazing, we need skill books takes decades to improve

idk why but this mod causes to duplicate trait descriptions tested it with only this mod running.

You use the old lockpicking system :p

God, guys, how do you open a lock? All my tries fail almost instantly.

Can you provide a key change? plase！！！

Супер мод, спасибо за работу! Теперь вскрывать замки стало гораздо интереснее.

The hotwiring mini-game like others have said on here is not engaging or interesting. Its purely a time-sink for the sake of what? I actually was loving this mod until I wasted 30 minutes trying to hotwire a 70' Challenger TA (hard difficulty) the mod itself provides no information and its not intuitive. Yes you can click the wires and shit happens but there is absolutely no indication of what you're supposed to do. I sadly uninstalled due to this.

forged crowbar doesn't work when using to lockpick, normal blue crowbar does work.

Can you add sandbox to lower the hot wiring difficulty. The 4 wires are way too difficult. 2 combinations out of 8 wires.

With newest update that added keybind support, this mod and True Crawl both spam "callframe at: addKeyBinding"

Hey, would it be possible to add vehicle key crafting? Much like what was available in B41 with Expanded hotwiring?

It's a feature I'd like to see because it enables the ability to check the fuel levels in a vehicle without attempting to start it.

@Centsational & @TheIronFist When it says "I can't pinpoint it" it's not a gamble at all. Just move to another door or window and try there. Afaik the idea behind it is that not with every window/door it's as easy to know from if it's rigged with an alarm or not

@TheIronFist when it says "I can't pinpoint it, it's a gamble. I guess its just the mod-maker's way of still trying to keep the unfair essence of project zomboid when designing the mod, but that is just MY speculation, I cannot say for certain. I've entered places that had "cant pinpoint it" without AND with tripping house alarms.

Love this mod though is their any difference in text when a character says "It is alarmed" vs "I cant't pinpoint it" seeing that i'm hoping there will be a feature to disable alarms in the future

The lockpicking is highly infuriating. Ive yet to get one single successful pick with a lvl 4 skill on even very easy locks. A video guide would be very, very useful for visual learners like myself because this minigame because I know I would very much enjoy this mod much more if I could understand it. Everything else about this mod I understand and enjoy except the lockpicking.

As much as i like the idea of the hotwiring minigame, any way of disabling it? Its just waaaaaaaaay too hard and makes it not worth starting as a burglar.

You have a better chance of finding a sledgehammer in refrigerator than finding the combination to the very hard hot wiring minigame

I'm having a really hard time with the "guide" that pops up when you enter a lockpicking minigame on a door. What is the difference between the steel-colored pins and the regular blue-ish pins? why do the steel(gray) pin doors NEVER open? they are not mentioned in the guide. and mushrooms pins are also extremely difficult, No matter the tension they do not properly set ever. Could you please run me down the more difficult pins?

Are there any skillbooks for this for boosters? It seems like a very long way leveling up if you get 2XP per lock you pick.

There's mod for B41

Is this controller compatible?
If so how ?
Else could you kindly look into it please. Thx

41 build?

Please can you add more sandbox settings so I can turn all the others off and just use the hot wiring

А почему нет совместимости с 41 билдом? Какие то технические особенности?

The mod bugged my game after I crowbar-pedaled a car door, rendering my character unable to move. If I disable the mod, the character moves normally.

Does this mod work with unstable?

How do I repair the lock on my car after I broke it?

does this work with build 41?

Не воспринимает Base.CrowbarForged как монтировку.

Have problem with some reinforced door at lockpick level 4. The second pin won't lock in at 5 tension, but at 6 tension it's stuck.

Can someone please make a video tutorial for this? I know I can change it to the old system in sandbox options but I also see a lot of people say they love the new system so it must mean I'm just not getting something right

Is there no skill book?

Please make a glue that repairs locks, I beg you!

Amazing! Yours is the BEST lockpicking minigame ive ever seen in any game, and its damn realistic, too!
Great job!

pin system should just copy oblivions method, would be much better

Any chance of it becoming a full locksmithing mod ^^? Like recipes to craft key blank and make a key once you've gotten past a lock?

cool minigames but lockpicking is much more frustrating than cool. that video guide would be super useful, because the in-game manual isnt

I found a bug. It causes feature descriptions to be repeated. For example, +1 will be displayed as +1 +1. It is unknown whether it will become +2 in the game.

This is a great mod, now i use it on all games, maebe he can add the feature that make it easy to wiere a car if you have more skills on electicity or mechanic, maebe reducing the number of whires to cut or made one of be already cut.

If this is better lockpicking I challenge you to do what no other lockpicking mod maker has done before when I asked if it were possible. Add a new layer to the mod like for the 10 years later mod add a minigame where you have to clean crude out the lock before you can pick it but not all cars it could be difficulty related. with the 100 years later mod yo can have one where yo have to wet the sand with water and pull out some sand then you can pick the lock and get and what not or you could risk it all and break the window.

типо все класс, но взламывать модовые суперкары, где надо подобрать 4 провода сразу это капец, 210 доступных комбинаций))

ezeepeezee
I also think that the author of the mod made it too difficult to open, the pin control is very "clumsy" and the tension is poorly perceived, maybe add a color scale for tension (as an option).

I know how to do it in reality :) and it's much easier with your hands than in the game. By the way, locks should have a difficulty = how many cells. And now it's 90% easier to break a lock than to open it with the burglar skill. It's annoying.
But the idea is good and should be balanced.

Is there no chance of the lockpicking minigame to ever be B41 compatible? Having a similar illustration, using the mouse to move the lockpick back and forth, w to push it up against a pin, and using a and d to control the tension?

I came here to see if other people thought the lockpicking was too much. I CAN do it, I understand how it works, but holy hell is it irritating. You have to be on the exact right number of tension pretty much, and it feels as if it fails you just randomly out of nowhere. Just now I had all of the pins pushed up, and increasing the tension caused it to fail, whereas with every lock before this one, it worked to ramp up the tension once the locks were in place. This is just too punishing, though it is very cool and well designed.
