Closed StarinLin closed 3 years ago

[chaos] ; enter effect names separated by commas in here to disable them disabledEffects="No HUD,Blind,It's Time For A Break,Suicide,Lag,Spammy Vehicle Doors,Black Traffic,Blue Traffic,Green Traffic,Red Traffic,White Traffic,Everyone Is A Ghost"

This is my profile content, but I can still see these effects in the game,so how? And,By the way, when is the next update,I love this mod. Thank you very much

i'm also wondering how to disable effects properly in this mod, the instructions are kind of vague and an official example would be very useful!

Try remove [chaos] from config

@StarinLin As @shtrih wrote, try to remove [chaos] from your config file and also remove the quotes. That should fix it.

And,By the way, when is the next update,I love this mod. Thank you very much

A new version of ChaosIV is already in development. Make sure to keep an eye on this repository for any updates ;)

i was going to leave a comment about it but i see you beat me to it by half an hour!

if you open the scripthook console with «`» and type «reloadscripts» you can 1. reload your scripts if they crash without restarting the entire game and 2. see what effects are disabled and how they are typed/perceived by the game

so «disabledEffects="Teleport To Swingset, No HUD, Suicide"» doesn't work, because the game reads «"Teleport to Swingset» + « No HUD» + « Suicide"» so the weird spaces and the quotations marks fucks it up. but remove them («disabledEffects=Teleport To Swingest,No HUD,Suicide») and the game reads each effects correctly and it seems to disable them!

hope these examples (and the «reloadscripts» command) helps some of y'all!
