@Mikey11130 The mod is great, but it just needs an animation update; it looks more like the character is trying to check their phone rather than opening the vehicle door...
I really wanted a fix so this is awesome but the old lockpicking and hotwire had a issue with the menu as it wouldn't save. This mod doesn't seem to fix the menu issue as my menu still wont save otherwise please keep updating this mod I noticed alot of lockpicking mods are either outdated or are very buggy.
Thank you for reviving this mod, maybe its because i use controller but when i try to lockpick a car, he just grabs the handle and thats it. then i found a car that was unlocked, got in and did get the hotwire thing, but i wasn't able to finish it. :(
@TRACEY_DESANTIS You mean the settings aren’t saved?
@Y-Axis Do you use the latest nigthly version of SHVDN?
