The Mod is conflicting with Actual game keys, specifically Standby order key. The character takes the input for exiting or entering rather than the order, when near a car or in the car. And the UI is also not showing up when in a car.

@Sezario will see what I do about that, for now I recommend holding the weapon wheel button before pressing the enter exit command, that prevents the entering and exit of the vehicle

@thalilmythos I'm using a controller, what's the "character switch button?" I've tried L/R Alt and neither did anything either.
January 09, 2026 -
@thalilmythos OK it's just that dpad down and Y puts me into a freecam mode which I can't disable -- would be great if could just have it as down and B for both commands (like stop then start / wait then follow one command after the other)
January 09, 2026 -
@N. Man Dawg, the character button is the one you use to switch your characters, but you already must have bodyguards with you to use this, you can try these, that are mine:
https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/the-homies
https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/bodyguard-contactsor use something else, like a trainer, or another bodyguard mod.
January 09, 2026 -
@ChargedKILO My man, you can change that in whatever trainer you're using, every trainer I know has settings for their freecam mode.
January 09, 2026 -
@thalilmythos Yeah you'd think but this is what i've found in the config -- ; Key to toggle FreeCam (default = F3/114). Controller binds are fixed to Y+D-padDown. It's cool my man I just won't use the mod
January 10, 2026 -
can i command them to get in their own vehicle and follow/protect me?
January 10, 2026 -
Thank You for fixing and making the mod perfect! Features i can suggest for your bodyguard mods - Configurable guns and configurable amount of guards, steal nearby car when the car is full ( this feature was in Join Me Peds by Zilch ). These are just suggestions, it's up to you whether you want to add or not. Your bodyguards mods are probably the most realistic I've ever found.

No configurable guns, the bodyguard mod you use will take care of that.
No configurable amount of guards, the bodyguard mod you use will take care of that.I need you to understand, this is not a bodyguards mod, this is a mod that creates A SYSTEM that allow you to order your bodyguards FROM ANY OTHER MOD OR THE GAME FRIENDS.
I will add bodyguards follow you one day to this, for now, I'm implementing the more immediate things like combat, movement and weapons.
