Error on Server Startup
After adding this mod to the server, it crashes citing an error:

While I have no knowledge regarding the multiplayer aspect of the game, the error is clear: the game cannot find the file "sneakIdle.xml".

Since two different people reported that the mod works in multiplayer and the error is a simple "file not found", what I can suggest is that you can unsubscribe, give it a minute and resubscribe.

But there is also a possibility that a different mod is overwriting "sneakIdle.xml" and maybe preventing my mod from accessing that file. If that's the case, try moving my mod to the bottom of your mod list, though I'm not sure that'll work.

I hope these will help and you can solve the problem.

I can't help with the multiplayer stuff, sorry. Maybe others can chime in on this.
@CokeHyena, did you figure out what the problem was?

No but the server and the mod run just fine. So I'm taking no action. Thanks for your help.

I did notice in my logs that it gives multiple mods that are also attempting to access "sneakIdle.xml" so this may very well be the case.

It seems to be an issue with case-sensitive systems such as linux.

It's looking for "sneakIdle.xml" (uppercase "i") but the file is named with a lowercase "i" "sneakidle.xml".

So it indeed seems to be an issue with the mod itself.
Renaming the file works fine until there's an update of True Crouching.

That's strange. I always pay attention to case-sensitivity.

That file is named that way on purpose. Because the original file is named "sneakidle.xml" at
"\\ProjectZomboid\media\AnimSets\player\idle".
I was staying loyal to the game's naming conventions in order not to break stuff.

I am going to need more input on this before I update the mod.

The error is:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: steamapps/workshop/content/108600/2966176354/mods/TrueCrouching/media/AnimSets/player/idle/sneakidle.xml (No such file or directory) at PZXmlUtil.parseXml line:51.

The file is named sneakIdle.xml

The error only pops up when you start the server

The file seems to get renamed at some point to the uppercase "i" variant again.

I am just seeing, the error of the one who created this post had a different error message with an uppercase "i". That's very odd.

The xml files are containing "<animNode x_extends="sneakidle.xml">"

The file is named with an uppercase "i", that's another error it throws me:
ERROR: General , 1689689617779> 40,001,702> AnimNode.Parse threw an exception reading file: /home/sid_5304124/ZomboidB41/steamapps/workshop/content/108600/2966176354/mods/TrueCrouching/media/AnimSets/player/idle/sneakidleHandgun.xml

And so on.

It is also happening on my end as well. I just added this mod onto my server and the server is just not working. I had similar problems too with an other gun mod as well which led me to uninstall it until then.

That’s something completely different. The server should start fine with this issue. All it is, is a case sensitive mistake.

Well this is on my end and I do know the problem (since I did have the same issue with one of the mods which was case sensitive). This mod doesn't work with linux servers as it will bump into case sensitive issues.

It works fine on my end but throws those errors every now and then. If your server isn't even starting or doesn't work at all then it's not this mod but something else. You can edit the XML files and check for yourself if it's starting or not.

Updated the mod.
Someone please confirm if this case-sensitivity issue is resolved.
