    someone tried to exploit leap. maybe using it and using it again in the air with a script to get twice the damage on contact

    lol this is funny, because i remember being kicked from that server and laughing without ever stopping for around 10 minutes.

    The guy you saw get kicked was me, and to clarify, no, i do not use any kind of scripts, cheats, odd binds or hacks. I dont even use custom models. What you saw right there was "coming back to NS after a few weeks of inactivity and getting banned from a random server"

    Rather than to express my low opinion of the server admins and whine about the ban, i decided to just move on to another server to avoid posts much like this one.

    Anyways, i have never heard of the "leap exploit" maybe its something that came up while i was gone? Fact is, a good player can easily switch between leap and bite in midair and score 2 hits in a successive combo...

    Or maybe i just h4xx0r to t3h m4x and i should get a hardcoded ban into NS

    !addban Rico

    On a side note, I got accused afew days ago of leap scripts, "somehow" in mid air pulling out bite and killing people. It's called quick hands, and playing with the same key setup for all games for 5 years <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    yea, was prolly my plugin.

    it still has false positives but im working on a way to totally eliminate those.


    if you see it just once ignore it, if you see it like 4-5 times in a row then they might be using some exploit.

    omg i r teh h4x, i shall burn!!111




    Seriously though, when did people start saying leaping is exploitable? Last time i checked it was perfectly fine to be skilled as a skulk...

    It's like CS. Power hungry admins who are worse than you ban you.


    Anyways, it's the ultimate combo, and leap to bite hit.

    Some people suck at switching weapons (like me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->) and get scripts that auto switch back to their last weapon when they use leap (not like me..

    I gotta say this script is ****, it came up when i set off xeno and then lept. It comes up all the time with double-leap (it's necessary for covering ground). You know I love the mods/servers Voogru, but where did this come from, and why?

    there is a script out there that allows you to constantly leap withought losing energy as a skulk, meaning you can leap without the sound, and without the damage, and do it at a perfect level of stamina... which means you could make a script to leap, not lose any adrenaline, make a bite, and then leap back again... Can anyone say turret feast? Or even worse... "speed hack" (even though it's technically not a hack)

    It's an exploit that has recently surfaced. This is the server admin's attempt to stop it. Right now this is the first day the "patch" is out and has already been noticed as buggy. voogru said he planned on fixing it.

    Yup.... Ive gotten the leap icon once... but switching to bite in midair has gotten kills without number.... all it takes is fast fingers.

    If you're looking for an exploit.... i saw an onos kill ten or so marines with paralyse.... it acted almost like charge... but like he could "shoot" charge as paralyze

    Well, that's what happens when regulars who play on NG play somewhere else. =/

    I've played with Rico a couple times, no way he hacks ;p He's just pretty good with the skulk.

    I'm sure most of us have been told that we hack one time or another. Just sore losers =/

    When you use charge it keeps going til your bar of energy reaches zero, so if you use it, then switch to paraylze, anything you kill with charge, when you have the paralyze weapon out will count as a paralyze kill.

    So all the guy was doing, was charging and using paralyze so people couldnt run.

    That's no exploit, that's just HL misappropriating the true responsible for the kill. To do it, just charge then switch to paralysis. All the kills you will get while charging will be paralysis kills. You can do the same with primal scream too.

    A skulk can have fake xenocide kills too, even without a third hive. Just leap and switch to xenocide (even if it's red). If your leap kills someone, it'll appear as a xenocide kill.

    I really dont see whats hard about pressing q in the middle of a leap :/ if it really is that hard why dont you bind lastinv to a more convenient key?
  • DuckDuck Join Date: 2002-11-18 Member: 9195Members
    don't post before you have a clue what you are talking about. There IS an exploit. If half of you even read the server admins forum, you'd have seen the demo a week ago showing it in action. The NS server admins are working on a way to prevent it from being used. Someone already posted what it does (no change in energy, unlimited leap without sound), and no matter how long you've been playing the mod, that doesn't mean **** with regards to "I haven't seen it, so it can't exist". I guess if you've never seen someone shoot another person with an ak47 in real life, that means it can't happen...

    ?

    Buddy, were also talking about scripting leap with biting and such. Yes, I know there's an exploit with leap. However, <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->don't post before you have a clue what you are talking about.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    I sense some hostility. However, I believe your analogy is out of place, but yes, just because some people haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

    Although I believe some people who replied do have more intelligence that you believe.

    The only exploit we were denying was the one with the Onos Charge/ Paralyze.

    Don't be so quick to critisize, because you'll find yourself open to critism as well.

    Thanks duck for clarifying rather than going off on innane tangents like the rest of the crowd.

    When a 'possible exploit' thread is started, people want facts, not "OMG you suck n00b" or "i get accused of hacking all the time cause i'm "elite""

    I don't know about the more recent exploit, but there was once a leap exploit using spricts letting on use leap with only one hive. It was fixed in a patch however. I guess leap is the exploit ability. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hmm, im sorry duck, for whatever it seems i did to make you angry even though i have never seen you before.

    I see no reason to your behavior here, i am merely posting my opinion on a thread that directly affects me. I never said that "if i havent seen it, it doesnt exist", in fact, i clearly said that i had been away from NS for a few days so i did not know about any such exploits.

    Also, i do read the server forums from time to time, but tell me exactly, why would i constantly check them if i don't run a server? I see no logical reason for wasting my time in such a way if i don't own or run a server.

    I would just like to ask server ops not to run buggy scripts in public servers please, i am not demanding it in any way, because i know im in no position to demand such a thing from the owners, but it would make you look bad if you had a buggy script banning legitimate people from a server for apparently no reason at all.

    BTW: Voogru, you might want to add something in that script that tells you WHY you are banned, what got me mad was getting kicked from a winning game for no apparent reason at all, and to top it all off, it crashed my computer and i had to restart. Very annoying i must say.
