@vandiniscool i have seen people complaining on body cam ragdolls that it doesnt work with this mod
Valorin 14 Apr @ 8:33am 
I thought with one of the newer update, the commands enhancing ragdoll life wouldn't work anymore? They sure don't work in my game. Does this mod do anything different than entering those commands for you?

I have subscribed to this item but it does not seem to work. I have noticed some bodies disappearing during the "Follow Freeman" & "Our Benefactors Chapters". Do mods that effect the rag dolls like body cam rag dolls cause this?

Open offer, let me know if the antlion map still breaks. I haven't received new complaints about this, but it would be good to know.

typically, it will crash after it when trying to load the next map, or crash when trying to load into a save during the map.

I've added a map specific hack to set the corpse limit to 50 on the antlion defense. Let me know if it still breaks there.

Something strange happened, the first map I played after downloading the mod worked as intended. But all maps played after that have the corpses disappear like normal. Anyone else have this problem?
Nicocgboy 5 Feb @ 7:27am 
God i wish blue shift had corpses :(

Does this just add

violence_hblood "1"
violence_ablood "1"
g_ragdoll_fadespeed "0"
g_ragdoll_fadetime "-1"

to the autoexe script?
creeperbionicle 20 Jan @ 8:32pm 
wow i just hope that many corpses don't crash my game
Xelian 20 Jan @ 3:12pm 
Explosions don't push the bodies 😡
Milesium-487 15 Jan @ 2:42pm 
Only download this mod if OP decides to fix the game crashing from antlions
kadra, oh..... 13 Jan @ 5:08am 
this mod works and i enjoy seeing my fruits of the labor, but the game still crashing even with the patch especilly the first on the assault on lighthouse in sandtraps and obviously the antlion defense from the vortex coil. is it possible to make to make a patch that reduce the corpse to 50?
Ali 11 Jan @ 2:44pm 
This mod doesn't really work. Bodies still despawn.
Manco Inca 9 Jan @ 12:45pm 
I played through the entire game with this mod and the patch. Only got crashed when antlions came up too. :gordon:
Skibi 8 Jan @ 3:15pm 
when a enemy bleeds there are just missing textures on them???
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 3 Jan @ 5:52pm 
FUcking antlion
The_Blob 3 Jan @ 6:09am 
i've saved my game after antlion fight and now save wont start
Duchenator 3 Jan @ 2:38am 
Thank you!! @Aaronthelemon
betaMarine78 2 Jan @ 10:21pm 
Ok lol it works now once i restart steam, thanks!
Aaronthelemon 2 Jan @ 1:40pm 
@duchenator try to unsub and resub steam can be loopy with small or really large mod updates sometimes.
Duchenator 2 Jan @ 4:45am 
but the bodies still disappear(
Maybe it is only my problem, but i don`t find any solution(
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 1 Jan @ 11:29pm 
Ep1 issue fixed. It runs consistently. Alright, this is nice. Things work now.
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 1 Jan @ 6:08pm 
Trying to fix this is like paranoid schizophrenia. Hmm. I'm just going to revert this to the last not broken version. Let me know, whoever, if you have the right ent commands to make something happen.
Duchenator 1 Jan @ 11:45am 
Still not working for ep1
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 31 Dec, 2024 @ 8:50pm 
Try again.
Duchenator 29 Dec, 2024 @ 4:30am 
it still doesn`t work for ep1, it is terrible(
betaMarine78 29 Dec, 2024 @ 4:27am 
ok it just doesnt work anymore, welp it was fun while it lasted
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 28 Dec, 2024 @ 8:22pm 
I've modified how I compensate for ragdoll managers. Does it work better now?
Aaronthelemon 24 Dec, 2024 @ 6:08pm 
Yeah it oddly doesnt work for Ep1 for me
Duchenator 22 Dec, 2024 @ 5:56am 
in citadel ep1 corpses still disappear(
Duchenator 22 Dec, 2024 @ 5:52am 
Can you help me, what i do wrong, this not working for ep1 and i presume, for ep2 too, how i can solve this problem?((
SyahlanGaming_ 17 Dec, 2024 @ 4:00pm 
can it use with Kesserd's Bodycam like ragdolls
Judah_B 16 Dec, 2024 @ 2:55pm 
Is there a version of this that makes corpses fade faster? I like having the corpses there for a bit, but it just makes everything so messy. Also for broken prop parts, like crates.
Haruseyon 14 Dec, 2024 @ 2:38am 
Thanks for this. Being able to just click and install this was ncie. It still crashes the game on levels with many enemies. The crash patch doesn't help. It's still messes up the save files in the antlion defense level, especially. Console going crazy saying save overflow or something. I tried experimenting based on a previous comment but it feels like the engine kinda ignores g_ragdoll_maxcount if g_ragdoll_fadespeed is 0. But I'm satisfied anyway
giorgibob152 10 Dec, 2024 @ 1:17am 
You gotta make it work with other mods if you can. Like enhancer mods. Because they sadly don't work.
giorgibob152 6 Dec, 2024 @ 7:40am 
Yea but if there was mod like that without you doing gmod black magic would be very cool. To see gore blood and corpses everywhere which you could move. I would love to see it. And I think everyone would love it.
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 5 Dec, 2024 @ 11:31pm 
Seems unlikely. If you run g_ragdoll_maxcount 100 in consile before loading the save that might do something, though.
giorgibob152 5 Dec, 2024 @ 7:30am 
man if there was mod for gmod like this. or raising the bar. man i would explode in happiness
Reaper 4 Dec, 2024 @ 11:03pm 
Loading a quick save, auto save, normal save or dying crashes the game. So basically I cant access my saves anymore. I installed the crash patch, but no fix. Anything i can do?
jUG_05 4 Dec, 2024 @ 8:25pm 
that would be nice, but im pretty sure that would crash the game pretty quickly
James_Painshe 4 Dec, 2024 @ 11:09am 
Can you make the shell casings stay forever ?
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 3 Dec, 2024 @ 8:06pm 
I added a patch. Let me know if that works out for you.
♥♥♥♥ king 3 Dec, 2024 @ 8:09am 
if this is also making you crash after the antlion defense part in this vortal coil, type "g_ragdoll_fadespeed 1" into the console, it'll remove the antlion corpses and fix everything
Vitamin Celsius  [author] 30 Nov, 2024 @ 10:09pm 
Thanks for reporting this. I've added a new experimental hack that I think will disable game_ragdoll_managers overriding the config variable. This MAY solve the issue. Let me know.
Johno 30 Nov, 2024 @ 4:35am 
Once you progress past the citadel, bodies remain. Thanks for the Mod.
Johno 30 Nov, 2024 @ 2:07am 
Checked the console and the following is set:
g_ragdoll_fadespeed 0
g_ragdoll_important_maxcount 99999
g_ragdoll_lvfadespeed 0
g_ragdoll_maxcount 200

I am on the Citadel level, I saw in this chat someone mention this mod may not work on this level?
eidonabramm 29 Nov, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
I like this it also perfect duing battle zones gives the idea that so many on the enemy side ar ebeing pushed back yet so are those on Gordon Freeman side.
