Summary
Fixes a crash in Point Blank that occurs when picking up weapons while holding aim/fire buttons, preventing NullPointerException crashes in the animation system.
Description
Why does this mod exist?
Point Blank has an annoying crash that happens when you pick up weapons while holding down aim or fire buttons. The game throws a NullPointerException and crashes to desktop. Since this breaks gameplay flow and nobody likes random crashes, here's a fix.
What does this mod do?
- Prevents crashes when
GunClientStatebecomes null during weapon pickup - Fixes animation transitions that fail due to null pointer exceptions
- Works silently - no configuration needed, just install and forget
The fix targets Point Blank's FirstPersonWalkingAnimationHandler and safely creates replacement objects when the original system fails.
This “fix” doesn't solve the problem in itself, since limited access to the source code prevents me from fixing the problem at source, but it will at least prevent the game from crashing.
No Configuration Required
Just install it. The mod works automatically in the background - no settings, no keybinds, no hassle.
