[1.3]Baali early game weapon (Fists)

I just started played a persuassive, intimidative and seductive Baali, which uses Obfuscate to dodge combat.
Thing is, I started without my main weapon, FISTS.
Without FISTS, I can't even do the tutorial, which requires you to assassinate a Sabat with Potence (which you don't have btw!).

Killing the thug at the beach seems the safest way to acquire a weapon, but not having fists for the whole game will surely bring me pain somewhere...

That's the famous no hands bug. Start your character over. It happens like 1 out of 50 characters.

I didn't have to wait much. Without fists, I can't carry stuff, like cans, boards and other props. Like the planket that blocks the morgue... I can't do the asian stalker quest!

And I can't see my money as well. There's no item for it. It's still being registered, though, as I can buy and sell items on the shop.


Edit: ah, seriously? Damn! I did many early quests already =(
Hey mom, no hands!

This can easily be prevented by a simple Python script. Zer0morph, check out the UP vamputil.py for your next mod version !

Didn't you include the fix in TFN?!

Apparently not.

What should I do? I can include it in TFN 1.4. I'll have to scour the threads to see if I can find it.

Fear not. Just take notes for every little bug, like this one. If you find a major one, or if there are many little ones, you can fix all of them on 1.3.1...

Actually I just found out a person playing UP 8.9 had the no hands bug too. Appears people are still having it despite the fix.

That fix has changed over time, I don't know when I included the current one. It's really simple, in vamputil.py add:

   if not (pc.HasItem("item_w_fists")):
       pc.GiveItem("item_w_fists")
       pc.GiveItem("weapon_physcannon")
       pc.GiveItem("item_g_wallet")
       pc.GiveItem("item_g_keyring")
       pc.GiveItem("item_a_lt_cloth")

Vamputil? I thought, the function is located in tutorial.py. Or did you change that for the latest patch? I had it installed only for a short time and didn't look into the files.

Maybe it was there once, but when I changed the basic/plus switching I moved it there. I also moved all newly added patch scripts there, so modders would have it easier to handle the patch as a base...

Thank you Wesp/Malkav, I'll be sure to add that in.
