📋 About This Mod
LOGIC MOD IS NEEDED
This mod replaces the normal lockpicking minigame with the alternative lockbumping minigame that SBZ created in the early versions of the game.
This minigame was displayed in one of the dev tests maps that was left in one of the updates, here is how it looks
The amount of rings you have to picklock and speed of the rotation increases with the difficulty of the heist.
Some dumb dumb forgot to plug in the check for quick fingers in v1. 2. 0
Fixes the bug where the lockbump would complete in one attempt as long as you had rush (even without quick fingers)
Rush detection is now more consistent
Fixes the bug where rush just stops being detected by the game around 5 minutes into the heist
Rush now effects the minigame.
Player only needs to lockpick one ring while rush is active to complete the minigame
KNOWN ISSUES:
-
[]The way Starbreeze implemented the input listener for the minigame makes it so that you have to click F to play input the key even if you changed your interact button. I do plan on fixing this but it will take time as I will have to recreate the whole minigame and replace the listeners.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Brings back the classic lockbumping minigame for nostalgic players
- Simple UI replacement that changes the core interaction without altering gameplay balance
- Lightweight mod with a small file size (inferred from minimal description)
⚠️ Cons
- Very low endorsement count (9) suggests limited community testing and feedback
- Last updated in April 2024 — may not be compatible with future game patches
For PAYDAY 2 veterans who miss the original lockbumping minigame from early access and want a nostalgic UI change. Skip if you're happy with the current lockpicking minigame or prefer gameplay-altering mods — this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your original game files before replacing the minigame, in case you want to revert.
- Check if the mod requires BLT or any mod loader by reading the mod's description page on the Nexus.
- If you're using other UI mods, test for conflicts by installing this mod last and loading into a heist.
