@-EcLiPsE- Jedi Josh actually made an executions mod based on the unused executios, but it probably needs an update. Might be worth taking a look at his mod.

I heard that he can help you sniff out collectibles and stuff like that if you train him, but it's now impossible to train him. I don't know how much of the training was client-side versus server side, so I don't know if this sort of mod is even feasibly possible, but maybe there's files in the game that can be modified so that chop can be fully trained? Is this even a useful feature? I legitimately don't know.

@JohnFromGWN Why isn't there a mirror for open iv on this website? I'm assuming there must be a pretty good reason for what seems like a glaringly obvious oversight/flaw? Is there a mirror somewhere for the offline version, or would you recommend I wait for the website to come back on? Why isn't there actually a site-wide announcement or a pinned forum saying "just a heads up, modding isn't going to work these days because a website's down." At least let us know so we don't have to find out the hard way.

@gtavjamal sadly, I'm not a modder or I would look into it for you.

In the mod visual v, they have a visual settings change that makes NPC headlights cast shadows. Unfortunately, it also does a bunch of other stuff that I don't actually want right now. But if somebody could just take that one single visual settings change and make it a mod, I feel like that would be really useful. And yes, I'm aware that the mod headlights++ already does this, but it's using a script, and I'd rather not use scripts for simple visual change. I'm kind of shocked that this hasn't been done before. The benefits of this being a standalone mod or that it would be compatible with almost any graphics settings mod, and it would be less demanding than most graphics mods but this one small change can really help make the game look a lot nicer at night.

@gtavjamal Honestly, that doesn't sound like something that a script needs to be used to fix. It sounds more like a handling issue, a script would just be unnecessary here most likely. That's just my speculation based on hanging out in the realism discord for years.

@ReNNie we wish we had strings and popsicle sticks, this whole thing is held together by thoughts and prayers. Although that still doesn't explain how popsicle sticks and string let you accidentally hack into someone else's base.

I had no idea one of the devs was Ukrainian. But that doesn't explain why the site is down, did it get hacked or just crash? And regardless, the fact that the notice about the site being down wasn't in a pinned comment is pretty lame. But yeah, I hope he's ok. I can't imagine being in a country that's being invaded, America had the luxury of never having that happen.

@ReNNie how do you accidentally login to someone else's account using your account credentials? That's the worst glitch I've ever heard of. If you hadn't told me, I would have said it was bull.
