A missing animation doesn't cause a crash you just get a frozen object. The exploding creature (tentacle) is removed at death dropping a loot bag.

Without seeing the whole log I can't say what actually caused the crash the snip below indicates it began with the terminal screen gui.

I really like this mod, but it will just crash the game randomly during play. :steamfacepalm: Looks like the author included something called the "exploding creature" and didn't give it a dead model so the game just dies.
Error: Cannot load MWM track Models\Characters\Animations\exploding_creature_Dead.mwm.

I would recommend using the mes version, then you'll be able to create a spawn group without having to modify the planets directly

I'm sure you've answered this before, but is it possible for these aliens to spawn on other planets? I have an existing Ares at War scenario world that I am wanting to add this mod for, curious before I go plunging headfirst into stupidity lol. Thank you in advance!

No that'll be coming from somewhere else
Masterbuilder2.0 28 Sep, 2024 @ 8:10pm 
so is this mod supposed to add healing items from dead animals?
Deapri 10 Apr, 2024 @ 9:03am 
Maybe, in the MES version it's complaining about idle as well which also doesn't exist. Dunno...
Chipstix213  [author] 10 Apr, 2024 @ 7:06am 
I'll check it out 🤔
I can't remember if that's. Passive animal so doesn't need it.

MOD_ERROR: Alien animals, in file: G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2075243878\Data\Animations_Alien_Creatures.sbc
Resource not found, setting to error model. Resource path: G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2075243878\Models\Characters\Animations\LavaPup_Attack.mwm

Double checked the folders, the file is indeed missing.
