Bro, i wonder why original mod didn't updated for critical bug as "Force unlock can no longer be spammed for infinite lockpicking xp"

Just use the original Professional Framework, it was updated in January

Looks like it was either deleted or unlisted, yes.

Was the Better lockpicking (Updated Profession Framework) deleted?

Follow up for what Greywolf said, that seems to be user error, the mod works as intended on our server. Probably a mod conflict or the like.

We are running this on our 41.68 and it's running fine, with the Updated Profession Framework of the mod. Sometimes when breaking a lockpick there's an error, sometimes the hotwire doesn't progress correctly, but other than that, all features of the mod seem to work just fine.

Any news on this one? I miss it too.
Taeleus 15 Mar, 2022 @ 8:53pm 
played on a server on 41.65 with this and LOVED it. sitting here on 41.68 now and missing it so much.

@tCrowD\t.tv It does still work but if you break a lockpick while lockpicking its throwing an error.
tCrowD 10 Mar, 2022 @ 1:59pm 
Soo, doesn't work on 41.66? Just curious
Kafkatrap 26 Feb, 2022 @ 11:25pm 
@Aristine 41.66 is on stable now! ^_^
Aristine  [author] 23 Feb, 2022 @ 10:53am 
@kafkatrap I'm only going to be updating mods for stable releases when it's needed.
Kafkatrap 23 Feb, 2022 @ 10:42am 
@Aristine will you be looking into updating the lockpicking mod for 41.66?

I think there are a lot of people who consider this an essential mod so I'm sure it would be very appreciated by the community.
Kafkatrap 23 Feb, 2022 @ 9:24am 
@Aristine will do.
Aristine  [author] 23 Feb, 2022 @ 8:00am 
@kafkatrap This is for 41.65. Devs changed a lot in 41.66, and looks like it broke mods like this.
Also for future reference, put console logs and such in pastebin so you don't bloat the comment section.

@Aristine trying out the 41.66 unstable branch right now, getting these STACK TRACE bugs:

Sometimes the red error window pops up in the bottom right corner when a lockpick breaks during lockpicking, and the log shows the following:

@kafkatrap Not impossible. Same success rate as vanilla hotwiring. If your electrical level is low, it can take quite a few attempts. Sorry, it's the easiest way around the hotwired cars not syncing issue.
Kafkatrap 12 Feb, 2022 @ 2:15pm 
This mod makes it impossible to successfully hotwire.

Thank you for this!
☣ KeXe5 ☢ 6 Feb, 2022 @ 5:10am 
@Aristine Thank you!
Aristine  [author] 5 Feb, 2022 @ 9:09pm 
@KeX
Yeah you need it for singleplayer if you want the bugfixes mentioned in the description.

"Updated" is talking about if you're using Profession Framework
Or the old Profession Framework Build 41 Patch
☣ KeXe5 ☢ 5 Feb, 2022 @ 5:57pm 
What is the difference between the two profession frameworks that is linked in the description? What means "updated" in the second one? There is no explanation or description on the mod page. Do i need to use this patch for SP too? Or this is only worth to use in MP?
Aristine  [author] 1 Feb, 2022 @ 5:44am 
@RainbowGryphon The trait fixes require a new character (or you could try admin commands to give/remove traits). Everything else should be fine.

It works for already started servers? (mp)
Aristine  [author] 31 Jan, 2022 @ 11:16am 
@Vastined That message means it couldn't find the better lockpicking traits (meaning better lockpicking isn't activated). Make sure it's activated.
Vastined 31 Jan, 2022 @ 1:08am 
Tried with both OLD and UPDATED profession framework

getting some errors on my server:

How are the chances regarding the electrical level? It would be nice to be able to set this, but just knowing would already be a big help lol
Aristine  [author] 29 Jan, 2022 @ 11:22am 
Added! Force unlock spam should no longer be possible.
Aristine  [author] 29 Jan, 2022 @ 10:57am 
Thanks for bringing that one up, didn't know that was a thing. I'll try to add that today.
Aristine  [author] 27 Jan, 2022 @ 6:54pm 
@=jF=
You should be able to use the admin cheat menu. If not, the burglar profession version of the trait is called "nimblefingers", and the non-burglar one is "nimblefingers2"
=jF= 27 Jan, 2022 @ 6:46pm 
Any way to give yourself back the lockpicking trait. Tryed with the admin but no luck. This trait seem locked
