Were Climbing Guides removed from pack?

[ebiznet]

Hi all

There used to be a mod in Aslain's XVM Mod + ModPack Installer w/Picture & Sound Preview to enable climbing guides in WoT. Toggling this mod on would display lines to show paths up slopes and hills. 

I found this mod very useful.

Since the 0.9.21 mod packs, I have noticed this mod is absent. Is it tucked away somewhere or has it been removed, and why?

[Quaksen]

Most of the climbs were removed from the game.

 

And "Trajectory" was removed due to being bugged as well.

[ebiznet]

Thanks for the reply.

That's a shame. I think there are still a lot of climbs left in the game, especially the more gentle ones.

[Aslain]

I may re-add this mod again, when the author clean up the mod out of bugs and obsolete paths.

[ebiznet]

Awesome! I hope so and look forward to you adding it back in again.

Dunno if he cleaned it up enough, but he released 9.21.0.2 version of his mod (no changelog tho): http://pavel3333.ru/trajectorymod/

Will look at it, previously I was also using version for so called 9.21.0.2 and it was bugged, I reported that bug to him and he said he will fix it. Maybe it's fixed now

There were 2 mods showing climbing paths. I preferred the more colourful one  Its the one with the warning that activating it might affect the framerate.

Stll getting weird stuff in python, might not be serious error, looks like info only but it's suspicious

Hope you have not given up on this mod. I would like it added back too.

[Aslain]

I wanted to re-add it but there is a conflict with an unknown mod and that conflict is causing game crashing to a group of users. I cannot find out which mod it is, since I don't crash on it. 

[ebiznet]

Would it be too much to ask if you could make 2 versions of your package - one with and one without the climbing mod - so some of us can check it for you by using it?

[Aslain]

@ebiznet Unfortunately I can't. I could add this mod and a note that it may cause crash with an unknown mod from the modpack but it will end up that people will install that mod ignoring the warning in mod tag and then request a help because my modpack is crashing his game.

[ebiznet]

Yes, I understand. Thanks anyway for the reply and explanation

[Aslain]

I was testing it again now and that mod is still crashing when installed with some other mods. I reproduced it from that logs posted there:
