Chaotic Dreams

Found a serious-ish bug... It's totally reproducable.

When double jumping forward, that is forward-forward, and aiming down at a certain angle, and firing the chaos grenade launcher, it ALWAYS explodes right in your face as if you were facing a wall. This is a pretty serious bug as this movement happens pretty often.

[edit : actually, you only need to be moving forward and down and facing down.]

I installed ChaousUT2 as a zip and it didn't start, because it couldn't find the map nointro.whatever. I'd put it in the normal maps folder and it started normal ut2004. Afterwards I installed it as a umod file and i got a UT2004.exe runtime error. I've got the newest ut2004 patch already installed. What to do?

rename ut2004intro.u2 or sumthin to NoIntro.U2

do NOT do this. You should NEVER rename or alter a game file.

If the ChaosNoIntro.ut2 file is giving you problems, go into ChaosUT2.ini and change the LocalMap= to NvidiaLogo.ut2 or NoIntro.ut2. It should be right near the top of the file.

another bug sorry if that been maitnoned but when u play with bot vs bot in duel mod well sometimes the bot jump on the other guy and its NEVER sotp he jump on him and jump and jump and jump without atacking htis is in duel mod

Jigen, we'll have to check, but that sounds exactly like a bug we had Very early on in dev for this version, might have even been back in UT2003.

I can't recall now if it was the grenade launcher, or another weapon of ours, but the way I had it happening was even if I was just hanging from my grapplin in mid-air, and simply pointed it straight down. The darn thing woujld like hit an invisble wall at my feet or something.

I forget the details, prollly had something to do with our playermodels collision or something? (see...I shouldn't even guess, I'm not qualified for that...guys like Shuri and Jedi1 prolly chuckle at those)

But anyway, due to what I've seen in the past, my guess is that you've got something here, and we'll have to check it out.

Thanks man. Please keep playing!

Hi guys great mod btw:-)

Found a sort of bug,not sure if it has been said all ready.

Anyway went to the communty tab and loaded chaos.
picked a map and in the game mode set it to default bots,and no bots spawned??

So i went to the settings(game rules)and picked 6 bots to spawn,tryed again and 6 bots did spawn.so i set the setting back to map default,picked a map 2-4 bots,run it and 6 bots spawned instead.

So the map default bots is kinda not working.

So i did another test,i went back and set the bots to zero,then picked the option map defaults,same again not bots spawned:-(
So by the looks of it this mod only likes bot settings manualy..

Anyway great mod:-)

P.s sorry if this has allready been said:-)

Yes, it has been reported, but that's Ok. We're still glad to have you posting here on the BB.

As far as that bug goes, my understanding is that it may not be entirely a Chaos thing, so much as something to do with UT2004 and certain mod stuff. (I'll let the experts worry about the details....., if you're like me, just be at peace in knowing it shall soon be fixed )

Thanks for playing, and for taking the time to post.

I used the Zip version to reinstall the Chaos files and stuff and got this when I used my Chaos Shortcut. I deleted the .ini files, but it keeps coming up!

It...wont...go...away!

Kaboodles_The_Assassin,

can you email your log for this error? Thanks!

Ok I sent the log to your PlanetUnreal e-mail thing.

Another problem I found while playing the mutator.

Chaos UT key settings don't work well. I can't switch ammo types even after binding a key, and UT2004 doesn't seem to remember my key settings and erases them after I end the program. The AWO and Grapple buttons work though.

Melaneus worked overnight last night, and I'm not 100% sure yet, but I think this is fixed already.

YAY!

OK I have gotten this error with the zipfile, Umod, removing the .INIs EVERYTHING! Oh and yes I have UT patched.

It works as a mutator but thats the message I get after splash screen for the mod.

Hmm looks like its not liking the templar night skin,

try this rename your ChaosPlayerModels.upl file in the chaosut2\players dir and try it again to see if that helps.
