Gib Damage control

(Snoman) #1

Perhaps it’s just me, but on our server =GAT=XP save (running shrub) it takes about a full clip to “gib” a player. This is not true for some servers I have played on including other shrub servers. Is there a control to set this value? If not is there a bit of code any of you out there would be willing to share with the community to solve this problem? Any help would be much appreciated

The following mod allows you to change gib settings.

yea maybe stop living ze stone age and update to etpub? abit late to be looking for a fix on that now.

I will not put etpub on our server because of the numerous bugs reported, I know shrub has many but not nearly as many. So untill the number of bugs drops shrub it stays

AFAIK etpub has far less bugs then shrub

I’d beg to differ. Not to put etpub down…because hopefully one day it will become extraordinarily great.
Although, for now, there are loads of bugs that people complain about ‘in game’ & the etpub forums hear nothing of it.

I read up on all the major mod forums and because it’s still sorta in the beta stage its going to have bugs, I have enough trouble with shrub I don’t need to have extra work fixing more bugs. Besides I was leaning toward fortymod anyways. Sorry etpro/pub lovers its just too restrictive for us. Sure its a “competition” play thing and its more “fair” but dangit, its a game and I wanna have fun, not worry about the legality of a dynoplant or somebody clicking their pistols fast ect. We have lots of fun without the seriousness.

You probably dont read the changelogs, its full of bug fixes. Just wait for the new version, it will have Chucker’s bug fixes in it as well…

oy vey geeze, bug fixes smug fixes, its still too beta for me to trust running on my server. A friendly clan that I am very much in touch with has had horrible times with server crashes map rotation ect they ended going back to shrub.

Besides I did not make this post to gripe and complain about etpub I simply inquired if there was a setting to tone down the gib damage. I am Not mod shopping.

lol back to et 2.55 then, because the only versions from shrub that work with patched are beta’s or the 1.1 release for 2.56 :
Any bug found in etpub and is reported, will be fixed by the makers of it, unless it was an unintended feature. Try out the new 0.5.1 releasewhen it is released if you get tired of shrub, the 0.4 series where already better then fortymod (Unless 150 server admins are wrong)

It’s in the shrub documentation:

g_forceLimboHealth (0) will toggle between ET’s default force limbo health and RTCW’s force limbo health (0: -75, 1: -150)

So if you set this cvar to 0 (default) it should gib players faster.

BTW and floris the last shrub (1.3test13) works fine with ET version 2.60, if installed correctly.

(Floris) #12

Yeah it works fine, but its still a beta, and it still has bugs that are fixed in etpub

(Snoman) #13

etpub forty and others are in development just like windows, which is about as stable as charls manson. Thanks killerwhale for posting something relavant to this thread. I will try it.
