    Uh, make sure slot3 is still bound correctly? All those abilities you mentioned use the slot3 weapon, so there might be something wrong there.

    No, no, I can access them perfectly, but when I use the attacks leap just makes my skulk screech and swing his arms, and blink just swings the arms... both still consume adrenaline though completely useless, and all the other slot 3 attacks work fine.

    please look around before you make the same post that has been answred

    look, both of them work as "Alien catapults"

    basic deal, once you hit something you stop, so if you leap a a skulk and you are looking down you stop on the floor, same deal as fade

    the general tactic is to jump (and crouch for fade) and look up then fire

    basicaly neither of these are attacks, they both are more used for getting past turrets or closing the distance (or you could run away with the fades, but the leap wont realy help you, unless the marine sucks)

    leap is also realy nice b/c it is a fast way to get to those pesky cealing grates (look up and fire)

    also you can leap in mid air (thus come flying out of a vent and leap 2X before you land, you can cover most rooms and no turret will track you, try ussing this to get up to the comand chair in caged ;D)

    You guys don't understand, the attacks DON'T WORK at all. They worked last week, now no matter what, they DON'T WORK.

    I found the solution to my problem, when the 1.01 patch came out for servers, I just patched NS just in case I ended up a server some time... Seems that the 1.01 patch is for servers and ONLY servers. Leap and Blink are fully functional again since I reinstalled, thank you for your efforts. (Though they didn't answer my problem <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    I put on 1.01 and 1.02, but then some bugs arrived... so I reinstalled over the current install and didn't add the 1.01 patch (because my weld in-air-icons and similar were never showing before) and now I'm getting that problem too... Arrrg. Leap has stopped working for some reason, as has blink. Same problem, they don't work, and I do know how to use them.

    Gonna try some more reinstalling.
