It should still work fine, but I haven't tested it recently.

Last time I checked, certain mods that affect NPC corpse Ragdolls can break it a little.

does it still work atleast

Unless you have a different mod that does that, no.

Do the items get deleted over time if not picked up?
BrainyPepper 22 Feb, 2023 @ 11:50am 
And who cares that it's not easily customizable? Not everyone needs it to be, such as me. The default configuration is wonderful if you want to use the default weapons, which isn't some minuscule niche.
BrainyPepper 22 Feb, 2023 @ 11:47am 
Well don't just take it down because of that; just let them know what they're actually getting. That's what the description section is for. And the thought that just because you didn't get all you wanted out of this means it's not worth anything is just daft. Everything that has been contributed to the Workshop is worth something to someone. One man's trash is another's treasure.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 21 Feb, 2023 @ 4:10pm 
No but with other loot mods featuring the kind of customization I eventually wanted to add, I didn't want people finding this one so easily thinking they'd get that experience then complaining rather pointlessly in my comments for days on end about the lack of such features that may or may not ever be added.

If I had the necessary knowledge then that whole thing wouldn't really matter because then i could actually put some work into an update or something. Otherwise it's mostly still up for preservation purposes... or if I decide I wanna try again....
BrainyPepper 21 Feb, 2023 @ 4:03pm 
Well, you put effort into this, no matter how well you think you did, and there's no downside to having it public, so why private it? It still exists on the Workshop servers so the space it takes up is still the same either way, and it's not hurting anyone.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 21 Feb, 2023 @ 4:00pm 
Just seemed kinda pointless and redundant to keep this public imho.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 21 Feb, 2023 @ 3:58pm 
I didn't unlist this because I didn't think it was good, I unlisted it because other modders started making other loot mods with features I wanted to add before I could. I lacked the skills to beat them to it.

I'm kinda glad they did it though cuz now people dont need to wait for however long it takes me to teach myself how to code this stuff.
BrainyPepper 21 Feb, 2023 @ 3:54pm 
Thank you. Don't beat yourself up because you think it's not good, because it definitely is.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 20 Feb, 2023 @ 5:06pm 
Okay.. it's public again...
BrainyPepper 20 Feb, 2023 @ 4:52pm 
I vastly prefer the simplicity of this mod compared to that addon, which is rather bloated for the purposes I need it for
Aureate Eternal  [author] 20 Feb, 2023 @ 11:29am 
@Brainy Veddy, I marked this mod as unlisted because addons like this exist: https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1161497192
BrainyPepper 20 Feb, 2023 @ 12:16am 
Aww please make this public again. I want to put it in my survival horror collection. This addon is fucking amazing.
XxX_SashaMLG420_XxX 2 Feb, 2021 @ 8:58pm 
Am undestend but am wanna add this addon in my collection :steamsad: . And bro doun't worry the praise is good for beginners:winter2019happydog: . U mod work other mods didn't work well :missing:
Aureate Eternal  [author] 2 Feb, 2021 @ 5:02pm 
It also always felt like the praise I was getting over this was undeserved due to my lack of expertise leading to an inability to make good on many many plans I had.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 2 Feb, 2021 @ 4:58pm 
@XxX_SashaMLG420_XxX, I want to update this more than you want me to, but I lack the necessary expertise to do so and was probably gonna try to find someone to pass the torch onto. On top of that, not very long after I originally released this mod, someone else beat me to all the features I planned in their own loot mod such as in-game loot customization menus.

Under these circumstances, I decided to stop all work on my mod and linked the other more-developed loot mod.
XxX_SashaMLG420_XxX 2 Feb, 2021 @ 1:14pm 
plz sir make this addon not OBSOLETE (is some best mod for loot:steamthumbsup:)
Aureate Eternal  [author] 22 Oct, 2020 @ 11:38am 
@C0sm0s, This mod was deliberately made to be universal to allow dropping items from every NPC. I think I do remember it was possible to make specific NPCs drop various weapons and items, but that would be a separate mod on its own even if I updated this mod to the point where I'd say it's finished and then I'd need to make a file for each different NPC so people have options, blah blah blah...

TLDR: I'd have to make a new mod that would end up leading to a lot more work than actually needed.
C0sm0s 22 Oct, 2020 @ 11:14am 
Can u make this for specific npc ? :) and thannnnnnnx !
Formal Lizard 26 Jul, 2020 @ 8:31pm 
This is my favorite mod out there next to wiremod
Not Strelok™ 19 Jun, 2020 @ 9:25am 
10/10 bust loot mod
DayDay 9 Sep, 2019 @ 4:58pm 
Oh my gosh, finally! I'm been searching for this for days!
Aureate Eternal  [author] 3 Aug, 2019 @ 8:23pm 
@Pyri, Thanks. Just wish I had more to show for a 2-year-hiatus than a minor tweak. I really feel like you guys deserve better. :ftired:
Pyri 3 Aug, 2019 @ 8:19pm 
Ok, well I do wish the best outcome for you and most important, time, you should take some time when doing stuff, I do wish good for you. And thank you for the update since I've been tabbing on here once in a while. :cozyrealmroyale:
Aureate Eternal  [author] 3 Aug, 2019 @ 7:52pm 
@Pyri, So far a minor update is planned to adjust loot drop frequency. I haven't made much progress into figuring out how to add the major menu update I had initially planned on release. The minor update's release date is still TBD as I haven't had the heart to work on mods much in the past few months and I have to figure out how to use the upload tool that comes with the game as I previously wasn't aware of its existence.

After the minor update, the mod will most likely officially be abandoned waiting for someone else to try and pick it up. I kinda bit off more than I could chew with this mod and it pains me to say that I may be unable to make this live up to even my own expectations within the foreseeable future.
Pyri 3 Aug, 2019 @ 7:34pm 
Will this ever be updated?
Just_A_Random_Guy 5 Jul, 2019 @ 9:43am 
Everytime i Kill a combine soldier , Rebel or a zombie the weapon just dissapears... What is the problem?
Remington 870 Fieldmaster 12GA 10 May, 2019 @ 12:13am 
Yikes
ChaozRage 7 May, 2019 @ 5:20pm 
Look, guns that only partially function shouldn't be on the loot pool.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 7 May, 2019 @ 12:13pm 
@Pvt Oinks, I've never seen that. But then again I think I only reloaded the Alyx Gun once. Not sure. Wouldn't rule out a mod conflict tho.
ChaozRage 7 May, 2019 @ 12:00pm 
The Alyx gun shakes the entire screen when you reload.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 7 May, 2019 @ 3:02am 
@Pvt. Oinks, you can fire and reload them but they don't have proper models and animations for first-person.
ChaozRage 6 May, 2019 @ 7:52pm 
Annabelle and the Alyx Gun don't even work man...
Aureate Eternal  [author] 6 May, 2019 @ 5:38pm 
@Pvt. Oinks, I added both Annabelle and the Alyx Gun to the default drop pool at users' requests. It's been a while so I can't remember exactly how many users asked for it. As for the gun's existence, blame Facepunch for that. They're the ones who added to the game in the first place and they're the ones who allowed it to drop from Grigori without mods as-is.
ChaozRage 6 May, 2019 @ 5:33pm 
Please remove Annabelle from the drops please. That weapon shouldn't even exist.
Arty 29 Sep, 2018 @ 7:55am 
what leveling system mod is that and could I have a link
Lord Of Wolfgirls 24 Sep, 2018 @ 6:42am 
doesnt seem to work for me... NPCs dont drop anything
sqworm 30 Jul, 2018 @ 10:02pm 
@Goldfreak Cool. Keep up the good work btw!
Aureate Eternal  [author] 28 Jul, 2018 @ 7:04am 
@ScoobityBoobity, If I ever figure out how to add it, it will be added.
sqworm 28 Jul, 2018 @ 4:35am 
The only thing i really want added to this is a way to disable loot for specific NPCs. Some things like Antlions i actually prefer to not drop any loot whatsoever. But don't get me wrong i LOVE this addon to death.
Pyri 4 Jul, 2018 @ 1:33pm 
@Goldfreka. Hey no problem. Just take your time and don't rush. I know you get it done sooner or later :coolpolice: (also happy 4th of July)
Aureate Eternal  [author] 4 Jul, 2018 @ 1:31pm 
@Pyri, No worries. I'm actually a little pleasantly surprised there aren't more people asking about that, but then again the development on this is in hiatus unless/until I learn how to make console commands.
Pyri 4 Jul, 2018 @ 1:28pm 
Oh ok. I also keep forgetting if I ask you that or someone else did. My apolgies.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 4 Jul, 2018 @ 1:23pm 
@Pyri, There are no console commands at all yet. And I don't know how to make any yet which is one of the main reasons there's no menu for this either.
Pyri 4 Jul, 2018 @ 1:22pm 
Is there like a console command to disable loot drops?
austria-HRE 28 Jun, 2018 @ 5:35am 
Thanks man!
