Bug / Improvment List for Hidden:Source

[1Luc1]

Hallo guys,

here i want to start a bug-list and a improvment-list to help the Hidden-Mod-Team to make this MOD better than it already is.

Please post a bug or a improvment suggestion with this entry:

BUG: or IMPROVEMENT:

THX

BUG:

• sometimes iam already in the game but the NAme doesn't show up in the score list.
• i have played on a server where after a I.R.I.S Member got killed, he joind the HIdden side. But the level doesn't restart. So there were more than one hidden in the game.

IMPROVEMENT:

• i think waiting time is too long, after a team wins you have to wait a little bit to long i think.
• it would be nice if the Q button has his function from the beginning, I mean you don't have to chose first the other weapon and then the Q button works.

i have played on a server where after a I.R.I.S Member got killed, he joind the HIdden side. But the level doesn't restart. So there were more than one hidden in the game.

This occurs in OVR_[mapname] maps. This gametype is called overun. If a marine falls then he respawns as a hidden. The marine have to survive the timer to win. A starting hidden is randomly selected at the beginning. The idea of this game mode is to let everyone have a go at the hidden, even if they suck at shooting one (like me)

i think waiting time is too long, after a team wins you have to wait a little bit to long i think.

I agree, i whined hard about it while trying to break the patch yesterday so it should have been reduced.

it would be nice if the Q button has his function from the beginning, I mean you don't have to chose first the other weapon and then the Q button works.

Once again, i agree. However I just use the following custom bind instead.
In console type:
bind mwheelup slot1
bind mwheeldown slot2

The scoreboard bug is something that [omg!!] wont go away (*screams in anguish*)

BUG:

• sometimes if you look around fast you can see our own flashlight
• in the spectatormodus the location which shows up isnt right or doesnt change if you change the camera.
• with my brothers laptop i can't play as a hidden, the screen is black and a little bit flickering. Laptop Specs: Intel Celeron 1,4 MHz; ATI Readeon 9200; 512 MB RAM

Camera locations are screwed and have been giving the coder bods trouble for..a while.

The 9200 you are using on thel aptop may not support dx9. I suggest updating drivers to check

 

[1Luc1]

yea i have the newest driver on it, the funny thing is i can play dystopia without any problems, i mean isnt this the same effect??

 

[$kelet0r]

ì just played and it seems really ****ed to me
iwhen i spawned then as 617 my screen was pitch black apart from the hud
solutions?

PREVIOUS POST
and in case you try i am not going to tolerate update your drivers, get a new graphics card advice etc. this problem is hidden source related only

as 617

bump has to be administered - its not on the new posts list anymore

 

[Afterburn3r]

yea i bet your prob is that you do not have DirectX 9 or higher, because there's an effect used for the vision of the Hidden that my require it.

 

[$kelet0r]

oh but i do

 

[$kelet0r]

never mind, i fixed it myself - the answer to any graphical issues you have is to type cl_hvision 0 into the console
this should be more widely broadcast

 

[Gusdor]

dx9 cards should be more widely broadcast.

1. Get mediocre job
2. Work for 2 weeks
3. Buy new gfx card
4. Enjoy not being lazy

A nice improvement would be for the IRIS team members to be able to blast each other with no penalties if the wait time is so high

I don't really like the cameras in the spectator screen. It makes it really boring because lots of the time you can't even find anybody on them and some hidden's really take their time.

EDIT: Oh, and we need a longer survival time in overrun. I'd say about 85% of the time the last guy gets away unless he was right next to the recently killed IRIS guy.

Also, collision sizes seem big. It gets really annoying trying to get around other players in thinner areas.

Improvement - Better original bind layout:

Ctrl : Crouch
Space : Jump

are my major annoyances. I know it can be changed, but I think most people use that setup.

AGREED. That was frusterating.

Also, so if you turn around too fast that's your own flashlight? I was wondering what that was. Would explain why I never hit the hidden when I tried to hit the weird flashlight thing.

I'd like it if instead of killing hidden makes you the hidden that if it was just straight up random. I was on more than one server where to guys just kept killing each other. One would go two rounds, then meet in respawn and kill him. Kept the rest of the server from playing.
