@realzeta They will still shoot it, unless it's a bodyguard you get from the gang and turf mod gang itself

Great mod... works very well... please could you provide an ini to allow for input customization?

New update

- the orders now can be given in a vehicle
- Now bodyguards can be instructed to stay inside the vehicle with the standby command
- they will also exit the vehicle when you give them the move command on foot.
- All commands are interchangeable.

Next update will probably include a new order that makes bodyguards use melee weapons.

@ChargedKILO Will see what I do about that, nevertheless, in the meanwhile, you can change the inputs in the game's options themselves, since the mod uses controls from the actual game and not keys.

The Mod is conflicting with Actual game keys, specifically Standby order key. The character takes the input for exiting or entering rather than the order, when near a car or in the car. And the UI is also not showing up when in a car.

@Sezario will see what I do about that, for now I recommend holding the weapon wheel button before pressing the enter exit command, that prevents the entering and exit of the vehicle

Latest updates:

- THIS MOD IS COMPATIBLE WITH ANY BODYGUARD MOD, EVEN TRAINERS
- The orders now can be given in a vehicle
- Now bodyguards can be instructed to stay inside the vehicle with the standby command.
- They will also exit the vehicle when you give them the move command on foot.
- The player can also command the bodyguards to use melee weapons if they have them, and if they don't they will exclusively use their fists.
- The player can command the bodyguards to use guns again.
- There's dynamic reactions
- They exit stand by mode, and exit the cars the player leaves them in to help the player if he gets into trouble.
- They will also pull out guns if the player enters a shootout.

@thalilmythos I'm using a controller, what's the "character switch button?" I've tried L/R Alt and neither did anything either.

@thalilmythos OK it's just that dpad down and Y puts me into a freecam mode which I can't disable -- would be great if could just have it as down and B for both commands (like stop then start / wait then follow one command after the other)

@N. Man Dawg, the character button is the one you use to switch your characters, but you already must have bodyguards with you to use this, you can try these, that are mine:

https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/bodyguard-contacts

or use something else, like a trainer, or another bodyguard mod.

@ChargedKILO My man, you can change that in whatever trainer you're using, every trainer I know has settings for their freecam mode.

@thalilmythos Yeah you'd think but this is what i've found in the config -- ; Key to toggle FreeCam (default = F3/114). Controller binds are fixed to Y+D-padDown. It's cool my man I just won't use the mod

can i command them to get in their own vehicle and follow/protect me?

Thank You for fixing and making the mod perfect! Features i can suggest for your bodyguard mods - Configurable guns and configurable amount of guards, steal nearby car when the car is full ( this feature was in Join Me Peds by Zilch ). These are just suggestions, it's up to you whether you want to add or not. Your bodyguards mods are probably the most realistic I've ever found.

NEW UPDATE

here's a video of the mod in action.

CHANGELOG 1.3

- Buttons changed, now the main button for the vehicle is the cinematic camera.
- Buttons changed, now the main button for the vehicle stand by is the handbrake.
- Buttons changed, now the main button for the vehicle move is the vehicle aim button.
- Now bodyguards will actually exit the car to help you
- Now bodyguards will actually pull out their guns to shoot if they were using melee when the player starts shooting.
- Bodyguards won't drive by when set to melee, so you can keep your car windows safe finally.
-Melee and guns state can only be set on foot now, because it was not working while the bodyguards were in vehicles.

Ini will be coming around in the next update.

@Sezario

No configurable guns, the bodyguard mod you use will take care of that.
No configurable amount of guards, the bodyguard mod you use will take care of that.

I need you to understand, this is not a bodyguards mod, this is a mod that creates A SYSTEM that allow you to order your bodyguards FROM ANY OTHER MOD OR THE GAME FRIENDS.

I will add bodyguards follow you one day to this, for now, I'm implementing the more immediate things like combat, movement and weapons.

can u make a script that overrides weapon draw animation?

not working

@arjun77 for you
