First of all, LOVELY mod. Kudos to you, good sir.


Now, fixing the AI (paraphrasing suoarski @ reddit):
close HLA, open steam and right click on HLA, click on properties. In launch options, type in

-console -vconsole

Open HLA, open the game, open the map with the bug, pause the game and press ~ on the KEYBOARD to open the console. In the console, type

ai_setenabled 1

and hit enter. New enemies should now behave normally.

(Works, checked and it fixes the AI, no need to reload a save or start from scratch)

noAI bug after exiting the creepy hospital room, i haven't tried starting new game tho since i don't feel like losing my upgrades and resin

im sorry uhh the fuck i do with the car battery
Laughable Butane 2 Mar, 2024 @ 10:43am 
I had an issue where the red circle would not pop up on the battery. I was software locked for a half hour :/

I disintegrated the little battery in the resin vending machine before I realized I needed it, didn't realize until some time later. Reloaded an earlier save and the AI bug happened. Could not progress.
I will try unsub/resub and starting the level from the beginning.
Other than that I have been really enjoying these maps.

The Zombies sure got a lot more disturbing, when the Ai bug happens https://s11.gifyu.com/images/Sg15k.gif

Yup just found it. For anyone else as blind as me I saw a little rectangular 9V battery looking thing on the floor of the cabinet closest to the door and stuck it in the slot in the back wall of the same cabinet bellow the other identical battery.

@ahuizotl did you put the little battery in the first cupboard?
Ahuizotl 6 Sep, 2022 @ 9:06am 
No issue with the AI I don't think but I am having the same issue as TheGreeny.

I was coming back from getting the combine battery in the offices, attacked on the way back and the doors are now open to the central area where the electrical box is. Big combine guy from the radio makes his entrance, I shoot him and he leaves saying I shot his eye.
Put in the square car battery looking thing into the red indicator, put in the combine battery thing. Can't flip the switch. I see no way to progress. Did I miss something?

hl267 1 Sep, 2021 @ 11:57pm 
I encountered same issue. But I can still pass the level. AI disabled problem will show up when load a save in this map
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 8 May, 2021 @ 10:05am 
no problem homie wait when you part 2 it wil be the real bioshock
quetzaquotl 8 May, 2021 @ 9:29am 
:-) thx!
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 8 May, 2021 @ 7:36am 
you are not stuck you just dont now how to select it properly. deselect level 1-2-3-4 and start new game
quetzaquotl 8 May, 2021 @ 5:14am 
There is no option to chose the level. If all 8 lvl are activated it will start from lvl 1.
But IF ist would work, all my progress (upgrades, collected ammo) would be lost, wich also is a bummer.
I know, it is all for free, but I like it more than the original Alyx, so its so sad 4 me to be stuck.
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 8 May, 2021 @ 2:11am 
select new game then level 5 and start playing ?
quetzaquotl 8 May, 2021 @ 1:39am 
How do I start a new game directly from level 5? It always starts form the first level. There is no option to chose the level.
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 2 May, 2021 @ 5:08am 
fuck yes!!
jm_ 30 Apr, 2021 @ 11:51am 
P.S. Can confirm: after re-subscribing and disabling / enabling the addon in the [manage addons] everything works fine
jm_ 30 Apr, 2021 @ 6:44am 
Maybe re-subscribing cures this (!), I'll check (or it depends on something else in the HL Alyx installation so it's local issue in my config).
In any case, the level is passable after this update, thank you :steamthumbsup:
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 30 Apr, 2021 @ 12:43am 
so i unsubsribed and subsribt again. and then tryed level from start to finish no problem died and respawnt no problem reload autosave no problem reload manuale save no problem like 10 times. so i think its ok ,now
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 29 Apr, 2021 @ 11:19pm 
but it wil not happen if uou start level fresh (or from 4) if you dont load or save right? thats a little better
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 29 Apr, 2021 @ 11:16pm 
o well i tryed. then dont load or save ;)
jm_ 29 Apr, 2021 @ 8:20pm 
Level 4 saves (in-game Games -> Bioshock5 -> select older save at Bioshock4) also works, no need to start new game.

But any save/load at level 5 currently disable AI on this level, no matter if it's a game continued from level 4 or a new game started at Bioshock5
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 29 Apr, 2021 @ 1:51pm 
level 5 wil only work if you did not load a save file but start new game with level 5
jm_ 29 Apr, 2021 @ 11:35am 
Any save made at (new) level 5 loads with AI disabled.

Except this (and the incident with the first combine who got stuck in the animation after I throw grenade in there) it works.
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 29 Apr, 2021 @ 8:59am 
fuck im so happy it works now wil not happen with new chapter promis
Clotaire 29 Apr, 2021 @ 8:56am 
Thanks for all ! I've started level5 as a new game and it works. Time to try the lost case now :-)
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 28 Apr, 2021 @ 1:09am

daeseogg 27 Apr, 2021 @ 4:36pm

Kolkwitzia 27 Apr, 2021 @ 3:05pm 
Any update on the AI disabled problem? I'd love to finish playing parts 5-8 :steamthumbsup:
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 18 Apr, 2021 @ 10:54am 
there stil buzy with the fix im sorry !
Clotaire 18 Apr, 2021 @ 10:06am 
Hello.
Firstly, your mod is amazing. Thanks !
I've tried to restart level 5, starting from level 4 with a save game and get the AI work for a few seconds then the AI deactivated.
I've downloaded your mod two days ago, when this issue was supposed to be fixed.
Seems that something is still going wrong.
Anyway, good job for, again, this amazing mod.
bulldog0890 15 Apr, 2021 @ 3:00pm 
whats the trick with the vending machines? im going to need it to get my upgrades back once the level 5 bug is fixed
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 14 Apr, 2021 @ 11:59pm 
yes you can alwash use this hack if you want. no if you restart level you wil get no weopon upgrades i wil enable this in the part 2
Palmer Eldritch 14 Apr, 2021 @ 5:08pm 
So, to play this level is there no way to bring weapon upgrades through from part 4? Is it a complete new game restart. I found a bug with the vending machines in earlier levels maxed out all my weapons, assuming that'll still be an option if I start from scratch in 5.
wim.buytaert.1988  [author] 12 Apr, 2021 @ 11:09pm 
yes when i fix this any day now. you wil have to manually select the level when you pick new game
bulldog0890 12 Apr, 2021 @ 5:23pm 
Amazing bunch of levels though, this issue aside
bulldog0890 12 Apr, 2021 @ 5:22pm 
Was the issue already supposed to be fixed? and how do you restart a whole level? I only have the option to load my last few autosaves
bulldog0890 12 Apr, 2021 @ 5:19pm 
Hi, you think when this is done we'll be able to just load a save from level 5? none of the enemies move around
