the helicopter is Way too powerful, it's killing me before i even get a chance to piss myself in fear and take cover

-adjusted helicopter damage so player can take 4-5 registered hits before death, giving you time to get to cover

*edit*
i have heli damage set to 90, WTF, must have been testing and forgot to change it back to 25

sorry folks

the variable for this if you wish to fix is located in smod\cfg\skill.cfg

change
"sk_npc_dmg_helicopter_to_plr" "90", set it between 20-30

ill include this in enxt patch, sorry

[IneptGuard]

The helicopter is firing it's burst in a perfectly strait line rather than a cone shape. When you get hit you are getting hit with like 10 bullets at once. this might be why it keeps killing every one so quickly an may not have as much to do with just the damage.

[veteran_gamer]

try runnin the fix, should be good to go, i modified the cone on purpose, as before the thing couldnt concentrate on multiple targets, as far as i remember anyway

run the fix, and leme know

[Happy Cat]

^ sk_helicopter_firingcone may be what you're looking for. HL2 default's 20.

In SMODT I usually had it in a straight line too, but with sk_helicopter_roundsperburst 1.

Dongs everywhere!

[IneptGuard]

OK, ABgun and chopper seem to be working properly, I don't know if the chopper can kill the player yet but i'll find out soon enough.

[IneptGuard]

Fire kills anything almost instantly, Or really fast. on the + side, the flame thrower is now the most powerful weapon!

zombies (regulars) are using jump nodes, I have only notice this in ravenholm. They seem to be doing the T pose while jumping.

I had a mid game crash just after u jump across from the train at the start of route canal i got into the little house picked up the p90 drawd my mp5 while looking at a z and a thing that goes flash it did that just as i had drawn dont know but i have to run everything on low still looks great and runs ok with minimal lag vet i saw mikey talking about a lower spec version asking if u could do one well now im asking or a cfg like he was saying i dont know what any of that means so help me out

[spartan191]

ok now i have a glitch when on water hazard when u get to the base where u have to shoot the barrels to open the door all the physics objects just start like floating through the air and when i entered airboat it went crazy as well

[sonsaku]

i am having a bad day. menu and in game menu show up but thats it. i can hear it but get a black screen. i tryed numerous vid settings. but nothing. console says late precache, and model name is null.

[Happy Cat]

Nearly done with my playthrough (stopping for now at coast_03) so I've got a couple of things, though they may be flukes on my part.

- After making it to the last rebel post prior to the Lab, the vortigaunt apparently failed to mount the gun. Not a massive issue, I just fixed it with ent_fire !picker enablegun 1.





- In Town, the zombies couldn't climb the pipes leading up to me. Whenever I'd encounter this issue, the console complained "Invalid function pointer in entity!".



On the other hand, they had no problem jumping around and didn't do the T pose while jumping on my machine.

- There's a few places where it's trying to precache models but comes up NULL so lollag. One instance is in Eli_01 where it tries to load four. I'd have to play through again to tell you where the others are.

Haven't had any show-stoppers yet like the other two ITT.


e: Oh, and what's with the copter's firingcone being set to 360 (0)? Turns it into a finely tuned rapid-fire shotgun is all.

[sonsaku]

ok, here is the error im getting on my console:

oh here is a screenie of wha does show up. other than this it is just black:

only menu shows ok:

[spartan191]

well we all are having problems[glow=red,2,300][/glow]

[sonsaku]

wait wait! i fixed it. on steam if i right click outbreak, i can set launch options to run it in dx8 mode, that makes the game work! -70dxlevel or something like that!

[no1gamer]

ok now i have played it still coast12 and here is my bugreport:
- the shotgun shells have no skin
- rocketskins also no skin (but they have some in the supplybox ...)
- f_combine still have problems with shooting (sometimes reload all the time and no shooting)

these was the minor bugs which i noticed.
Bud i had a major bug at coast_08:
- i can't play this map because at the beginning the screen is fading black and then the game load my last savegame like i have died ... veeerrryy weird

but still vet this is awesome!!! your mod kicks ass like hell! and the weapons ... i love you ^^
my fav weapons are the granade launcher and the 552 (weapon_custom7). and the sound is awesome too.
if this mod is finished some day this will be the best mod ever!!!


uuhhhh that must have hurt XD

[lxHowlxl]

How do you turn off the motion blur, it makes it impossible to see. :/

[veteran_gamer]

i've looked into everyones issues

The airboat gun seems to mount properly everytime for me, sorry pappy, ill look into the rest though, and ilove the helicopters behavior, i will however look into the precaching, pappy

the crashes some of you are experiencing are due to not enough horsepower in your PC, most likely (lack of) free ram allocation, when the NPCS spawn, its causing the crash, i cant do much about that excep remove more npcs from the main campaign

the f_combine npc is not meant to be part of the game, and will have no support whatsoever

sonsaku, im really glad you fixed it my friend

as for any visual/skin errors, this is due to changing things yourselves, all models, skins and anything related are working %110. i even tested this on my dads computer, and all is healthy and well, try reinstalling from scratch

i will fully remove f_combine and other aspects not meant to be in the game next patch, so that it isnt reported heheh

also, if the zombies are using jumpnodes, well then, we'd better embed a jumping anim to those suckers! muahahah, sweet

thanks for your help, keep it comin (try not to LOOK for things to post for the sake of posting, eh? ;p )

What about the motion blur? XD Thats the only thing I need to get rid of! :]

[veteran_gamer]

motion blur is off, do you mean vector blur?

r_vectorblur i think

[lxHowlxl]

No, its something else.....

[veteran_gamer]

there's only two

r_motion
r_vector

[no1gamer]

And what's about my coast_08 map problem?

[veteran_gamer]

i havent reached the coast yet, but honestly, im not sure at all, im working on the next little "update", and ill test this when i get there

also @ pappy, the fast zombies seemed to have issues climbing, the original DEFAULT ones...in ravenhol, this has plagued me and haunts my dreams, i see no possible fix....and we're talking about valve placed climb nodes...tell me, anyone, in other SMODS if the zombies climb properly...

[sonsaku]

smod redux 6.1 has zombies climbing ok.... maybe they can help.

[veteran_gamer]

it was all my fault, it was an issue i created for myself man. hahah. the story of my life, it was as simple as reseting sv_stop speed to 100, i had it set at 225


225 worked out good for a few reasons, for one, if you notice now, when you run around and suddenly stop moving, you kinda of "float". this glide effect is all over the place naturally for hal flife 2. its like ice skating in the winter or something. with stop speed enabled, it gave the entire engine a more "solid ground" feel. everything from stuff you threw around, to your very movement stopped. no sliding ragdoll enemies, no surfing on wood crates, hahah. nothin.

somehow, the climbing events for npcs capable of climbing, seem to use this very floating behavior to ....haha.....>"SLIIIIIDE" all the way from the top, to solid ground

something plaguing me from the VERY first day i starting editing smod, i used to cry about this like bitch all the time. it killed ravenholm and just fucked everything up. all related to ONE stupid variable....sv_stopspeed.

HAHAH. stupid fuck.


im just glad its over :]

[sonsaku]

one thing i really love about outbreak is how if anyone dies in water the water turns red. but i notived that if an explosion is strong enough to ripem in half or in ravenholm's spinning blade traps the severede zombie turns into the hl2 original.

[isilidur]

wait a second... this mod isn't dead? I heard it was... is it undead now?

There Is A Small Error In The Weapons, They Don't Sway.

It Seems Like It Should Be Fixed.
