Third Race : Marientator !

<div class="IPBDescription">This bug may be found and posted before</div> Since i do not visit NS forums so much, i don't know if this bug was found before, or if developers are aware of this bug.

It is possible to be in Alien Team with Marine Skin, Marine height, Marine sounds, skulk speed and to use anything in the map ( USE impulse ). You'll be seen by all players, yes your player object will have collisions as normal... You have neither right-click menu nor weapons.
It is not possible to be killed generally.
You can be killed by fall damage, by Spore from lerk, by Healing from gorg, electrical damage from electrified buildings.

I repeat again. I don't know if this was found out before. If not please let me know.
I have screenshots and related demos ( tested )

For the attachment ( Notice the height of the player. It's too much for a skulk, you may understand )

    Siege weapons do not hurt.
    (Health was decreased to "4" (before ) because of electrified resource nodes)

    Stucked under hive as marine with skulk spirit

    very confusing bug.

    glitches are not uncommon, and can cause similar results.

    for it to be a true bug you need to be able to recreate it, otherwise it may have been a fluke.

    the circumstances in which it occured would be helpful, and if you can recreate it effortlessly then it may actually be a problem. otherwise, if it happened once when your system was low on resources or after you've been playing for 5 hours straight.. maybe it's just a glitch. =P

    Since when did QWERTY expand beyond two members (Dsg and I[qazwsx])? I can assure you all that this man is not QWERTY! (for all of you who care).

    I wish you were right.

    I am able to recreate it.
    For ex: This screenshot was taken some minutes ago from another server.

    To Fooshie: My nickname is QWERTY, but not the same QWERTY that you know <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Since it is a true bug, as you are able to recreate it, you might need to repost this in the Bug Report or Tech Support forums. For all we know it might be caused by something external to NS, though that seems unlikely to me. In this forum, it is less likely you will get a response from someone able to fix your problem.

    What can I say?

    Owned.

    Oh, and interesting bug
  • QWERTY_TRQWERTY_TR Join Date: 2003-12-28 Member: 24817Members
    After my tests, i can say that, this is a very bad bug.
    In my tests, i also saw that you can go 10x faster than a skulk and disturb people.

    I'll be posting a bug fix plugin ( metamod plugin )( to fix all of the problems i told about in this thread) in to this thread *soon, so no one will be affected.

    Marienator! <Atari Music>
    A armory humper caught in a horrible Nuclear accident WITH A SKULK.
    Dun dun dun dun! Marineator decided to join the kharaa as he was a rambo anyways.
    Marineator met his demise in a "Gorge Orgy"

    Er.. well you say you can recreate it but don't explain how?.. if it's not exploitable it'd be good to know.. if it can be used to give an unfair advantage you should email the developers about it.

    and no offense to anyone, but... the nickname "QWERTY" is extremely common, there should be absolutely no surprise if someone else happens to use the same name. it's on practically every U.S keyboard ever made... how could you expect it to NOT be common? =P
  • QWERTY_TRQWERTY_TR Join Date: 2003-12-28 Member: 24817Members
    typical skeleton: I posted this bug into bug reports part, so i think that it was seen.

    I had said that i would be posting bug fix (metamod plugin). As you see, i couldn't.
    I couldn't find a server to make tests.

    I'm looking for help.
    What i need?
    - A server with at least 1 player in both of the teams ( and me = min. 3 players)
    - A win32 server admin who can put my metamod plugin to his/her server more than 1 time and who can think that i have good intentions <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'll be glad if anyone may be interested in.
    You may e-mail me if you don't want to post to this topic or if you are a visitor and don't have an account on this forum.
    my email is: qwerty AD sandwaves DOT org, if you can't reach me from there, please post here :|

    Happy new year! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
  • disqdisq Join Date: 2002-11-30 Member: 10312Members, NS1 Playtester
    OMG you even posted to hlds_linux asking people to install your plugin to test. who knows what this plugin does? install a trojan emailing rcon_password to qwerty AT (btw it's pronounced AT, not AD) sandwaves.org everyday? are you willing to provide the source? guess not.

    LOL. why are you asking innocent people to test your plugin and its bugs for you? so you couldn't write a plugin. not everybody can.

    Every glitch IS a BUG...... EVERY SINGLE ONE.... it isnt a fluke... there WERE a set sequence of events to make it happen, it may have been so rare that it will never happen again... but EVERY SINGLE GLITCH is a bug also, its just the problem of finding out what created it to be able to effectively fix or prevent it..

    **** those QWERTY chumps. Most of them have been banned from Freaks now except dsg, but since none of his cronies are there anymore he usualy plays fair, but he has to have a crosshair to do good, he always goes rines, and if he cant he goes lerk. Coincidence? I think not.

    Before people like you start ranting and judging based on a name, which may be similar but totally unrelated to that clan you had problems with, you should get your facts straight. Also, if you have nothing to say about the topic, don't bother posting, you're just poluting the forum.

    I know that QWERTY is part of the UnitedAdmins.com staff and stumbled across this bug, has done extensive research testing on it, and is working hard to get a fix released since the developers have failed to respond to him (not that they'd even be interested in releasing a v2 patch right now anyway).
  • GlissGliss Join Date: 2003-03-23 Member: 14800Members, Constellation, NS2 Map Tester
    This seems similar to the stopcommandermode bug. Huh.
    Have you posted this in the Bug Reports Forum yet?
  • aao_Alphaaao_Alpha Join Date: 2004-01-10 Member: 25208Members
    Querty have you emailed Flayra or any of the development team with this bug and how you recreated it time and time again? I am sure they will welcome your amx plugin and they might be able to use its sorce and credit you. I don't think every server is running amx though so it might be difficult to implement, thanks for your imput though. I think this is pretty serious and when people start finding out how to do this the little amateur n00bs are gonna start freaking up servers when nobody is present for admin_kick (thank god for admin_vote_kick though <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->)
