emp_streetsoffire in need of a small fix

It takes a little while to learn how to best do it (I explained it on page 1). Also, I managed to do it in about 7 mins and candles says he managed to do it in 2. I think that 2 min is a bit overstated, however if you do it right it can be done very effectively.

 

emp_streetsoffirebikefix

 

tl dr; Flasche, ask Trickster for the map, change the bikes to prop_dynamic, and recompile.
(My computer can't do it, the compile time takes forever for me. I'm on a shitty laptop).

 

>implying players actually read the forums

 

Honestly I had no idea, that it would take an entire patch to fix this small detail and I thought the mappers can do it. And honestly, I have no idea who has the authority to change anything except Trickster.

Besides, it still takes quite an amount of dedication, that most trolls lack, to actually utilize this. And as Z10000M and D.D.D. Destroyer said, there aren't by far enough active players and at the same time forum readers to consider this a big problem.

But if you want, I can cut some of the information on how to do it. If that'll make you happy fine. I don't really care and most of what I've said aboud avoiding BE was a joke (thought it was obvious enough).

And in the end, if someone figures out this on his/her/its own, this thread might help others get rid of the damn bike more easily.

 

I don't know if we even have the VMF for Streets of Fire.

 

It only takes a mapper to fix it, it takes a patch to give everyone the fix through steam.

 

We do

the real issue is this


1. the are modern bicycles
2. the are not RIDEABLE

 

Get to work!

 

I feel duty bound to make a really obscure reference.


THEY'VE GOT A BAYCYCLE!!!.

 

let me tell you something zoom. you dont wanna play emp with me cause ill cheat

 

let me tell you something complete. I dont wanna play emp period.
E:
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I didnt get that the first time around fuck me



I'd win anyway, everyone knows you're only half the man that I am.

 

It's not worth a special patch to remove this. If it happens to get done, great. If not, ohwell. This would be a method of greifing, not a method of winning. 7 minutes is a long time to be crouched in front of the enemy vf.

Otherwise, have a console admin use ent_remove while looking at the bikes.

 

My immersion is breaking at the seams.

 

I doubt this is much of a concern for now. Since it turns out that we have the vmf for it then it can easily be pushed out over steam by itself if it turns into a problem (the current steam integration allows devs to push whatever files they want whenever they want basically).

P.S. If you think posting an exploit that takes 5 minutes for not much affect to be carried out, its probably a good thing i didnt make a post on the forums detailing how to get unlimited free vehicles in 2.4

 

I don't think the SVN VMF is the right one. Things got really messy around the time Grizzly moved to a new SoF setup (the one with the brown ambient lighting) which used to crash everyone, so I took the 2.2 version and entity edited out the dumbass spaceship and made that the official version.
