Overflowing reliable buffer once I try to animate four ragdolls
I am toying around with more complex scenes. But it seems like a hard limit of four ragdolls. Any more than that, I am booted to the main menu. overflowed reliable buffer. Is this mod really so performance intensive? I can blow up a dozen npcs with a grenade just fine, but moving them through this addon is super laggy?

I don't know what the issue is. I have a lot of addons sure but I have deleted so many, and it still isn't working. It's on my SSD. I suppose my computer just isn't powerful enough, somehow. I just can't imagine why six source ragdolls t-posing around on gm_flatgrass is more intensive than Street Fighter 6 and Helldivers 2. That doesn't make any sense to me.

This is driving me nuts. I can scroll through the animation just fine with my mouse. But when I press the playback button, huge lag and I get kicked to main menu. What the heck is going on?

have you tried disabling all other addons and only enabling smh and whatever addons for map/ragdolls you need? are you using advanced bonemerge? whereas current multiple timelines implementation is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ optimized, it doesn't involve net messages in playback in any way so crashing due overflowing it is related to some other addon

I got rid of advanced bonemerge, as well as any other addon with the word 'bone' in the title, and performance increased hugely. From 4 t-posing ragdolls sliding aroudn causing boot to main menu, all the way to 19 t-posing ragdolls sliding around causing a 20-30 dip in FPS. Obviously that is way, way more to work with!!!! Thank you so much! I will probably take your advice and wipe out all my addons and start from scratch anyway, but that is more than enough for me to finish up the project Im working on, which has about seven actors. Thank you!

as per some update to adv bonemerge yesterday, it says that it should be ok to use with smh now so feel free to try it out and see how that goes https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/changelog/3214439967
