Um What Exactly Is This?

<div class="IPBDescription">cheating or exploit</div> Was just on my favorite server, skulkrush. Had a few players report to me that someone might be cheating....I went spectator to go look at him and it was a skulk moving sideways in first person view. I have also seen this on a few other servers. He also didn't appear to take damage or die. Has anyone else seen this?



The server also runs skulkattach.....but the player was NOT attached to anyone. I do not believe it was this though.

    He wasn't side stepping. His orientation was switched sideways, and also had the ability to move freely with invulnerability (as in god mode)...and believe me I didn't give him godmode nor did anyone else as I was the only admin on.

    Health and damage are server-side, there is no possible way for anyone to have godmode anymore.

    Well, DUH, but you can't do it with some hack or something that isn't built in, LBNUB OR WHATEVER IT WOULD BE IF YOUR NAME HAD NUB IN IT!

    Now that I think of it, it showed a lot of traits similar to skulkattach, except the fact that the player could move around freely...

    I probably wouldn't be too far off in guessing that he found a way to exploit it.

    btw i'm just asking here. If I see someone do this on the server again I will kick and possibly ban them.

    It sounds vaguely like he's already dead... Kind of like when, in 1.0x, you'd die (drop to 0 health) and be healed by a d chamber back to life, except worse.

    yeah Im pretty sure he got zombie glitched. I don't think you can intentionally cause it so it was just a stoke of random luck.

    We believe it's skulkattach....apparently one of the players stuck his friend into the wall, then used /stuck to get out....but kept the properties given by skulkattach.


    So to put this in short...don't run skulkattach plugin, can be exploited soo many different ways:

    1. gaining access to rooms via no clipping.
    2. recieving god mode upon being stuck to another object (except for grenade damage and mines)...has to do with the hitbox i assume.
    3. gaining free roaming ability with gode mode properties <---ah!
    4. the list goes on and on.

    Was fun being able to attach 6+ aliens to one another and attack marines...fun while it lasted.
    ^Could attach skulks to onos ;p Then rush the marine base and then have skulks all xeno at once...that was something to see.
    Will contact owner of server and see if he still wants to keep the plugin.

    Well..back in 1.04 somebody told me how to change my orientation so that when I was on a roof I'd be upside down on my screen, etc. Kinda like AVP. I dunno if that works in first person spectator though.

    LOL! I remember SkulkRush NS, I left after these stupid clanners {SpA} I think it was were using the invulnerablilty that skulkattach gives to feed me.

    Too many -12's on that server tbh, and the plugins are messed... Giveres on a 2.0 server? Having a laugh aint ya <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Skulkattach basically is where a skulk can attack to a marine by pressing the use key, and then becomes invulnerable.

    I saw people exploiting skulkattatch on Skulkrush a coupla months before 2.0 was released, pity there's never any admins on <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Skulks look like they're walking sideways when they strafe.
    Not sure about the invulnerability though

    giveres has never been used on the skulkrush server, nor will it be used.

    you must be confused with another server.

    MY system behaved similar to this when i tried installing 2.0 over dod retail

    I tried playing a s a marine, got a hmg, and started walking, aliens didnt see me, i htink i mighta been invisible, and i could take down their hives and such

    another guy on the server said my model was still in the base, and it seemed that i only died when IT got hit.... i decided that was too hackerish to play that way, so i reinstalled CS retail, and installed 2.0 on that
