Realistic Melee! 3.7.0

Please update the mod

Same here, doesn't work in 2020. Can this be updated to get it working?  

Hey I just installed the mod and it doesn't seem anything changed. I still take down any ped with a single hit. I followed installation instruction

pretty old mod but i have already modified my weapons.meta, so what do i have to add to it?

how do i remove pistol whip from combat pistol?

This is a fantastic mod and I'm really eager to use it after reading about it. But i saw that it modifies the weapons.meta file and i actually have modded weapons in and because of that, the weapons meta is already modified and i don't want to overwrite it. Is there anyway you could post it with JUST the modified lines in the meta files? That would be amazing and so helpful to me. It would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work though!

This is a cool mod..I really want it because i am sick n tire of ppl been killed by my meele...BUT it is not working anymore..Any info by the author??Is he gonna update it??Thnx

Is there any way I can edit the meta file and make it so the stun gun has an infinite stun time,  and no need to cool down.

Installed to my mods folder, I dont think that is is working, totally gut shot a guy and killed him.

Is this still working? In my new game folder reinstalling the files seems to do nothing. Do you know if they were overwritten in a more recent patchday?

So I installed this and when I bring up my weapons wheel all of my weapons disappear. Not sure why. Would you happen to know how to fix this?

i installed the mod and it seems like the melee weapons wont deal any damage and if they do its pretty unrealistic since i tried to kill a ped with a knife and he didnt die even after like 35 hits. Just wondering if im the only one or the mod is juste made like this

Hey there, alexgobert.

It appears weapon damage and pedestrian health is an incredibly difficult thing to re-code. I am currently working on a way to define fists, feet, and nightsticks ONLY as weaker weapons, but the game seems to synchronize weapons with a different code line, which I have yet to discover. I will keep working to find a solution, but it's hard with a business to run and a family to care for. I cannot guarantee an update anytime soon, if ever.

If anyone willing to assist me can step forward, there might be some hope for future fixes. For now, I recommend using this Mod in LSPDFR only, and reverting to your vanilla weapons.meta when playing SP.

Regards,

Jon

Awesome, like what you did there! As long as the creator of Realistic melee is ok with it I am. I intended this mod to be more of a basis for people to do what they want with and you did just that. I won't be updating this mod any time soon, probably never as there's no need to so I don't mind if people edit my method to suit them as long as it's not a blatant copy of the original structure mod (noreticle) I provide the structure, you build off it. Anyways, glad that you found a use for it in your own gameplay and took it upon yourself to help others in the process!

My response to Lyrad on my NoReticle mod page, just wanted to stick this here for clarification. If you, Techengage, would like to update your mod with Lyrad's edit with my NoReticle as a seperate option or something, I'd be fine with it. As in the quote, I'm not going to update it anytime soon and only intend it to be a basis for others. Cheers!

All melee weapons are non-lethal? I'll look into that, but they still die from knives, broken bottles, etc. for me. I'll keep ya'll updated.

Actually when i read the meta i can see this :

<Item type="CWeaponInfo">
          <Name>WEAPON_UNARMED</Name>

[...]

<HeadShotDamageModifierPlayer value="0.000000" />
          <Damage value="0.000000" />
          <DamageTime value="0.000000" />
          <DamageTimeInVehicle value="0.000000" />
          <DamageTimeInVehicleHeadShot value="0.000000" />
          <HitLimbsDamageModifier value="0.000000" />

Then i don't know why i kill people in 1-2 punches.

Edit : Anyway i see the same for the knife so i don't think this is something important.

As you can see in the video i'm still able to kill peoples with melee hit. Did i messed up somewhere or did you ?

It's working fine for me.  I don't mind all melee weapons not being lethal as I only use the nightstick in LSPDFR.  I beat someone to death with my nightstick and a hatchet and they didn't take any damage.

It should state in the description that this makes ALL melee weapons non-lethal not just the nightstick.

For the installation guide i was talking about the conflict i had with noreticle mod. And i'll have to do that manipulation again at every update. A clear readme would more appreciated due to my noskill.

And as i just said i am totally unskilled in dev', at least i can understand most of what the code means but i can't even write a simple line. It's just about picking a line here and replace an other there. If you find a way to improve the mod, just go ! Otherwise the mod is already good enough to worth the installation.

Yeah this should be less happening to kill someone with less than 3-4 punchs and less than 2 nightstick hit in the head. It should be more graduate like 2-5 punches = knock out for a few seconds, more ? Get some convulsions. More again ? Something else ? And death could happen to any of this stages (with more %chances at higher stages) to make it feel random.

I'm thinking about testing the non lethal shotgun (with it's skin) and make an exclusive video for this mod (most of the video is for the noreticle mod). Anyway i think i'm gonna wait the next update. You should really think to add a manual installation guide to your readme. At least for weapon.meta which seems to be used with a lot of mods.

Is there not an Installation section? I swear I have one in there, plus one to explain how you need to fully replace your weapons.meta to get the non-lethal shotgun, with instructions. It's exactly like the regular Mod, except the shotgun is updated, by the way.

As for the ped responses (getting them to pass out and wake back up without EMS, how to make them convulse/change reactions, or stopping them from falling down after ever freakin' hit..), requires editing .metas that subsequently bugged the entire game out (you would fall into the ground forever when you died, all ped melee/guns killed in one hit, peds would ignore your melee attacks completely with no damage or reaction, etc).

I was just sick of knocking folks out with my taser on accident so, I said screw it and tried everything out I could think of for two weeks. If you or anyone you know can find a way to properly edit the other ai files without messing the game up, pllleaassee send me a PM. I'll gladly collaborate!

I added the video and gave you credits. Thank you so much for the video and the honest review. I'll keep working on it and see what I can do about making the punch/kick/baton damage less temperamental. My plan is to have punches/kicks knockout in 4-12 hits (depending on the attack used), and batons in 2-7 hits. For now I feel it's 100% better than how it was, though! Let me know if there is anything else you would like changed and I'll gladly oblige. Cheers!

I think i've managed to do it myself. I've take the lines from weapon pistol to digiscanner and replaced them in the weapon.meta got from realistic melee.

Here is a video of what it's giving ingame :

And the file is attached to the post if anyone want to take it. If the OP want me to remove it just ask !

Actually this doesn't seems to work, 1 nighstick hit = 1 dead, 2 punchs = 1 dead Didn't tried the non-lethal shotgun at all.

If you slam someone directly on the top of the skull with a baton without them knowing, they would probably be knocked out in reality. If you connect a right hook and upper cut to a pedestrians face while they are walking down the street, they will probably be knocked out in reality. It isn't non-lethal melee, but realistic melee. I can punch, kick, and baton the crap outta people and they don't die every time. I'm sorry it isn't working for you. Make sure you replaced the proper .metas, too. There are multitudes of damages and weapons.metas.
