ET Test Known Issues and Bug Reporting

(|X|Avenger) #81

When the teams get shuffled, people remain on fireteams even when on different teams. This picture shows me (x|Avenger) and my fireteam member (x|Azurewolf) on the same fireteam – yet he was on axis and I was on allies. Note – the fireteam indicator did not correctly display his location ATM – (J,5) was his location when teams got shuffled. Here is the pic:

Oh, and it appears that the MG42 sounds like whatever the player was holding when he grabbed it – I have heard it sound like a knife, an fg42, a grunting noise, a medpack, and any other axis weapon. We had a chance to try this out, and I have a demo of the sounds if anyone can host it I’ll send it to them.

i really like ET. when i first played it i didnt like it, but i gave it another try and i was sold :o).
i have the mouse thing in limbo sometimes yes but you already found out about that. i also have, when i do /connect ip in the console that it just flips :S the screen goes crazy i had to use alt enter to exit the program…
also i really hate the voice chats. especially the “oops” it makes me want to exit the game. please change this. about the fire rate, i wouldnt mind if it was any faster ;). also my old config is useless now it seems :(. and why did you change the spawning cdms? i had a really great spawn script and now im unable to use it.
and also i still dont know why u r making it a free game ;). i dont mind of course, but i think if it were a pay for game the support would be better. ( not that its not good now, but i think the support would go aways faster and you just let the game be :frowning: ) then one more thing about light weapons. how do you get experiance with it? i kill lots of people with it and still i barely have level two with it at the end of a game :(.

thanks again for this game

A few bugs I’ve noticed:

During warmup the screen goes black, everything else is still vissible (Like the command-map, healthstatus ,etc). After warmup things are back to normal…

Sometimes the mouse gets ‘stuck’ once in the limbo menu.It stays in the right upper corner of the screen, so you can’t change classes during the game. After the game has ended and the next map loads you can move the mouse again.

When you get killed and you are waiting to respawn you can follow/watch your teammates. Sometimes the red ‘don’t shoot’ sign appears in the middle of the screen while watching teammates.

:cool: Not sure if it is already mentioned … but I found the following:

When sitting behind the gun on the tank as a allies and drive the damn thing “around” I get thrown out of the game because of “inactivity”, even when I keep fireing the gun. The game thinks I’m doing nothing?

Secondly I got squashed as a engineer building the commandcenter, once the “box” was completed I got squashed by it :eek2:

And last, when planting the dyna on the right pole of the big bridge from Axis side it will not blow the bridge (yes, it is close enough). Left goes fine though…

And of course like everyone else is saying, the voices have to go, they are really really bad :frowning:

  1. Me want to have the countdown timer back if the server is full, hate choosing the reconnect option

  2. Make it more smooth, all the time it looks ‘laggy’ even on local LAN with ping < 5

  3. Disable TK popup complaint for the blind wankas running over the mines (me got pissed by those complaints because all of those stevie wonders in a game)

  4. How can ya see who is on allies / axis before joining, maybe I’m blonde but can’t find it

Cheers, Poekie :drink:

Axis Covert Ops Det Pack has ‘US Army’ on it, so I’m guessing the same texture has been used for both.

(=AiS=MrLee) #88

:confused: That’s the same for the Dyna in “Classic” RtCW … Also the Allies have that German bird on the dyna :bump:

(Eraser) #89

I’ve had a VERY big problem on a couple of servers.

Whenever I would sit behind an MG-42 or the tank’s machinegun the screen would start to flash whenever I looked around. The view would also jump all over the screen as if there was a huge amount of lag. The same would happen when I tried to prone.

I think it only occured whenever I used All-Seeing Eye to connect to a server, I am not 100% sure on this though.

Anyone else had this problem as well?

(=AiS=MrLee) #90

Try pressing F2 in AsE and ket it detect your connection speed again, maybe your packets are set too high? :poke:

(Eraser) #91

I just used ASE again and it didn’t have the problem, so it’s not related to ASE.

([fun]scott) #92

hi… dunno if its our server set up but our server seems to crash every 3 hours (never had it run longer) could this be due to a memory leak? by et.
as it doesnt always crash at map reloads.

ps its running on a quad xeon server 3 gb ram … using 1 cpu atm. running as a service in dedicated mode. max of 16 players

please ask for more info if you need it or tell me the prob.

(Vengeance) #93

This see thru walls bug was found by y-lo - some other ppl have also said they have seen this.

(=AiS=MrLee) #94

Yeah … same here … but a lot of textures (esspecially snow) is flickering, always when using scope, but only doors, not the walls in my case :blah:

Right now the medic is way too strong he can level up real quick and his regen makes him a god in battle, so why dont they make the ET medic a non combat unit, he has no weapons except for a knife? He can have all his regen and stuff but the main purpose is that he heals people, just like in real life. Now to reward the medic for putting his arse on the line at level one medic instead of giving the unit an extra clip in the gun why not give him a pistol? Anyway thats my 2cents on a fix for the medic.

Oh i have also noticed that the Axis medic only has 30 bullets at level zero while the Allied medic has 60, why is that so?

(Snowman) #96

Everyone wants to get rid of the complaints for teamamtes running over mines. Thats just stupid. Then you will have those same a-holes planitng mines in areas that your team frequents and you will not be able to file a complaint. I had a teammate on allies trying to block off areas by mining them.

BUGZ

  1. Spectate a guy who is zoomed with a sniper rifle, if he dies while zoomed you spawn zoomed and carnt do anything about it, no weapons work etc…

  2. Tank Health is totaly gone but you cannot repair it, often happens and is frustrating as hell. Whole Allied team was stuck and helpless because of this nasty bug. Axis did not attack the tank to damage it again because they knew if they hit it again the damage would allow for repair.

  3. Not really a bug but a HUGE PAIN IN THE ASS, damn radio messages are mixed with chat. You try to chat and plan but nobody is ever heard/seen because of RADIO SPAM, eg…

CovertOp - Im In, Engineer to dump
billy - medic
john - medic
bob - medic
twinkle toes - medic

Mr CovertOp is begging for help but the Engineer carnt hear or see the call.

MAKE A DIFFRENT AUDIO SOUND FOR REAL CHAT

(ToeD) #98

make the chat area like in old rtcw, now its really small and in a place where you never ever look.
and lately i have these shitty errors end of parce packets and some more. its really frustarating! i disconnect from the game and if i reconnct i lose all my xp points! :frowning: didnt have this the first week but not i do have it

(Eraser) #99

Yhep I really agree that the “Medic!” radio message which are played when you die should go. It clutters up the chat bigtime. What I read a bit back about the “Medic!” shout just being played from the corpse and not through the radio like it is in RTCW sounds good.

(Eraser) #100

No, just get rid of the popup when you walk into mines. The problem is that the “noobs” press F1 whenever that popup comes up. If the popup doesn’t appear, they probably won’t bother to open the console and file a complaint through the console (if that’s possible?).

I think that if you die from a field operative’s airstrike or artillery, or from an Engineer’s mines or dynamite that the complaint popup shouldn’t appear, but you should still be able to file a complaint through the console, just in case someone is deliberately team killing you.

There’s just simply too many people that walk into mines, or sit down next to armed dynamite and are blown to bits, and then file a complaint.
