Warsong geometry on Horde side :(

chimbumban · 05-21-2005, 09:04 PM

Fix please thanks. This dude here is floating mid air next to the wall, he is not falling down.

chimbumban · 05-21-2005, 09:06 PM

Getting on top.

Don't mean to derail but what mod are you using that shows target hp % as well as class?

Grayson Carlyle · 05-21-2005, 09:33 PM

It looks like the spyglass "exploit".

As for showing class: http://ui.worldofwar.net/ui.php?id=566

That one adds a little movable icon that shows their class.

It does have a null string error sometimes when you first log in, but it doesn't stick around.

I don't think it's the spyglass spoit, but could be wrong.

Ashes Emberblade · 05-21-2005, 10:35 PM

He's just offset hacking.

Iannis · 05-21-2005, 11:31 PM

Seeing hps...not much of a spy/sploit hax, if they consider it such.

meh

xlurkerx · 05-21-2005, 11:56 PM

spyglass was hotfixed so now it has a cast time or something. did they forget to apply this to test server as well?

Metranon · 05-22-2005, 01:45 AM

thats not the only thing thats missing on test server

Northerner · 05-22-2005, 02:13 AM

Last I looked, they gave it a recast and not a casting time. That, of course, did nothing to address the issue.

KianwanCT · 05-22-2005, 02:29 AM

Then its different on the US than the EU servers North, cuz it sure has a cast time for me.

Kaige · 05-22-2005, 04:25 AM

Someone's probably seen it at E3 by now.

chimbumban · 05-22-2005, 06:37 AM

I don't think it's any type of exploit. I got to that location without using any external software nor any in-game item. I saw that same dude in the same place where I'm in the 2nd picture and I have seen Horde warping up there when they get feared. I have also seen Hunter pets charging towards me in mid air out of nowhere while trying to capture the Horde flag.

The problem with this bug is that the Horde flag carrier just needs to hide in one spot that is near where I am in the 2nd picture and he is basically untouchable until the Horde recovers their flag so that they can turn the captured flag in. I was not able to test this, but basically, if one carrier for some odd reason drops the flag behind that wall and is unable to go back to the spot, he just "bugs" the instance by dropping the flag in a place for which no one is able to recover it (and hence the opposing faction can't turn their captured flag either).

It would be nice to have a system that places the flag back after it has dropped somewhere if no side has touched it after some period of time. Right now it is just sad that after 20 mnutes of waiting, you just enter a non-fresh instance, see that both sides are "carrying" their flags, and ask "is this bugged?" just to be told that it is since no one can find where is the dropped flag. Then you get to use the queue system and it puts everyone in the bugged instance since people keep leaving it, allowing new people to get in.

(The mod is CTMod.)

I had multiple occasions that the game client completely lost sync with server. Can't log out. Can't attack mobs, charge gives me "Out of range" error, mob is walking in front of me. Can't zone into dungeon zones because only the client thinks you are at zone in yet on server I am far from zonein. Happens quite frequently grinding/mining in EPL.

Not saying that guy didn't hack or anything, but the current WoW client is far from being bug proof.

Kodylan · 05-22-2005, 09:42 AM

That's a bug with Charge. Probably their teleportation code halting position updates from being sent to you if there's lag and you move around too quickly.
