Lockup

Post by RH »

Re: Beast. I just unistalled it. I'll wait until I see version 1.1 at skincity or some other place. If I don't....oh well. Not that important to have it in the game.
There was an author name ,but I was unable to find his website anywhere,so I don't think he has one.
No critical failures since I got rid of that model.

Lockup.
I had the assault gun and I was about to pick up the vortex launcher, and at about the same time one of my proxy mines killed a bot. Then the game froze. Again the same irritating noise sounded while the game remained frozen.
I wasn't firing the assault gun this time.

Something odd to do with the vortex launcher.
I noticed that after the vortex collapsed like it always does it left behind the top half of it's sphere for a few seconds. I mean the small sphere that you see when it's in the vortex launcher.

RH,

glad it sort of fixed the issue with you on the ERDW.

Let us know if that lock up happens again.

Oh, the vortex does not always destroy its protective spheres...

Back again! My server is up and running now.

Ok here is what I did, I started from the very begining. I reinstalled everthing. Including the mod and all the fixes. After which I sent my system "the int" part the "engine engine" to a good trusted friend, he edited for me, and sent it back to me.. As you can tell I don't have the savvy that most of you have, so I hope that I have related this information correctly, so that you can understand what I am saying.

You were so helpful, thanks to all. :D

Arena mutator

Post by RH »

First of all I would like to say I think these Chaos weapons are great. Lots of fun. The vortex launcher is very cool. Very nice effect. :D
I also have the ChaosUT weapons for UT. ( Yes I still enjoy playing UT.)

Arena Mutator.

I thought I'd try the arena mutator and use nothing but grenade launchers. I don't know if you know this or not, but when that mutator is used only standard grenades appear next to the weapons. The same thing happens for all other weapons that have more then one ammo type.

Another lockup.

I used the arena mutator and chose vortex launchers. I was playing 11 bots in Tokara forest. I played 12 games with no lockups,but on the thirteenth game everything locked up. I suspect this lockup occured just because there were 12 vortex launchers being used.

(It was fun. Kind of funny too watching a bot that got stuck on one of those "railings" beside a walkway. Her legs were moving so fast they looked like a blur,and the vortex was only a couple feet away.
Sometimes when my character died I wouldn't hit the button right away and re-spawn. Instead I'd watch him get pulled from one vortex to another. :)

We'd love to fix it, but they can't fix the code until they can find it, basically meaning repeat the bug on demand, so they can see what to fix. Our job as beta testers is to find the 'trigger' for them. I have failed thus far to find the trigger for this bug.

The grapple randomly(?) going AWOL has been with us all the way thru Chaos for UT, and into CUT2. However, as far as I can tell, it's been fairly rare all along. For most folks, or at least from what I've heard since Chaos for UT, is that this is not the kind of bug that even shows up every night you play. It sure isn't for me.

But if you're getting it more often, than maybe there's something new here. If you can get it to repeat on demand, and give us the log file and as many details as possible, that would help a lot.

And I dunno about stuff like 12 vortex at once in Arena mutator. Gonna have to look into it I guess. :cry: But, really every time a lockup or something is mentioned, we have to cover the basics, or we end up possibly chasing ghosts. Were you using any other mutators? Were you on the latest version of Chaos? (PR1.01) Were you using hte Beast model for yourself or any bots? Etc. (Edit: I see in your earlier post RH you uninstalled Beast. But still , any other muts or whatnot?)

Thanks for the input. (up) Glad you had fun. (just frustrated cause now I gotta go play vortex arena :wink: )

RH,

Try this download link, it contains a new version of the beast model with own custom skelleton, so it should work now... ;)

Re: Follow up to grapple not working

Post by jeditobe1 »

I started pondering this about a week ago for the grapple not showing, but i have not yet encountered the bug in game:

It might be getting caught in its "release" function, i.e. it is never resetting back to the unused state where you could fire it again, and every time you press the grapple key until you die its trying unsuccessfully to release its hold again and again.

I just looked back through the thread, and here is the place where i got the idea that the hookoff function might be bad:

I've been playing that map for the last few days and the error hasn't occurred again. I noticed a lot of errors in the log file so I cleaned up the ini entries, got rid of that model (as it had a lot of errors as well) and so far it's been sweet

hmm.. one option is to uninstall unreal tournament 2003.. when you open the uninstaller you can choose mods that used ut2mods instead of uninstalling the game.

Or you could go in and take out the chaos files. If you got the zip and the option above isnt availible you can open the zip, find the files in there, and remove them.
