I love chimera hunt, but there's a pretty big problem, whenever I'm a pigmask and get eaten by the chimera, gmod crashes, please can you fix this?
[QUOTE=macdoo999;19356437]I love chimera hunt, but there's a pretty big problem, whenever I'm a pigmask and get eaten by the chimera, gmod crashes, please can you fix this?[/QUOTE]Happens to most of us. Is the main reason why multiple people leave the game simultaneously.
I've changed computers so I'll need to decompile the existing happy happy and fix it.
Here's a video of various glitches I've seen:

Fixes:
Doubled amount of spawns
Removed everyone's favorite ladder (sorry it was to reduce camping)
Added fog for long distance cover
Added a few more props
hope you enjoy
sweet, updating my servers now :)

if it wasnt for that pigmask jumping on the door, that could be an advert (albeit a dark one) for chimera hunt :P

I highly suggest a votekick/voteban feature because campers get old. See example here : [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESU5izP86Nc[/url]

exactly why I removed that one ladder
[QUOTE=Hawt Koffee;19409787]exactly why I removed that one ladder[/QUOTE]
You know that you can still get up on that house at the back thanks too some props right?
Also the truck is the new chimera camp spot, please get rid of that (or move it).

I am fully aware of both
but the side of the truck don't have collision models so it's not a big concern, the player will need to learn that
I will remove it if I have to
[QUOTE=Hawt Koffee;19409787]exactly why I removed that one ladder[/QUOTE]
I wasn't really directing that at you. You can easily camp on basically any map, so that's why I suggested the votekick/ban feature.

lol I love how theres that explicit mic spam. It compliments the spawn camper nicely

I know, just saying
[QUOTE=mrsaturn;19414080]lol I love how theres that explicit mic spam. It compliments the spawn camper nicely[/QUOTE] yes indeed
[QUOTE=dp138504;19413874]I wasn't really directing that at you. You can easily camp on basically any map, so that's why I suggested the votekick/ban feature.[/QUOTE]
I suppose that feature could be implemented to the specific server, yes?
I just played this mode the other day. It was weird as fuck, but i sat down and played; so it was fun.
What game is Chimera Hunt based off of? Earthbound right?

MOTHER 3, specifically. EarthBound (which is it's name in the US) is actually MOTHER 2 in Japan. :smile:
As for this game mode, the fretta contest has been extended another month, and I really don't want to leave this game mode high and dry because it seems a lot of people still enjoy playing it (which is fantastic!).
So, I want someone to write me a list of all the current bugs (not map related, because that's not my problem) and things that [I]need[/I] to be added. Not just random things you'd like to see added but instead the general consensus of what would help balance the game play the most. In the off time when I don't feel like working on my fretta entry, having a list of essential things that need to be done to CH would really help motivate me to actually do it. Try to be as specific as you can in explaining so I can have an easier time implementing something meaningful.
Thank you all for making this game mode popular and I'm ready to fix it up. :science:
Item pickups.
I won't go any further if you don't want to do things like that
but if you do I'll let you know what I'm thinking

Gamemode Buggies
- Pigmask & Chimera models spaz out when they die
- Known one: when pigmodels die they often crash people
- look at 2:11 -> [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmVhMWVagiw[/URL]
- Mostly pigs spawn on top of each other (even when there is alot of spawnpoints like in ch_happyhappy_b2
- Piggies can bunny hop sprint and keep their momentum all the time (saw this one today)
Thats all i know for now :P
Map buggies (for the makers of them)
[B]ch_labatory_b2[/B]
- There are exploits allowing pigs to get up the door frames view here: [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmVhMWVagiw[/URL]

Alot of places you can get up to, few screens here: [URL]http://www.xsjefkex.com/site/?page_id=44[/URL] Also the house where chimera spawns.. you can get up that by jumping on the little edge, then in the tree (with someone helping you) then of the tree on the building

[B]1.[/B] I think that's more of a model weight issue than it is a problem on my end. So it's a Flux problem.
[B]2.[/B] :argh:
[B]3.[/B] There actually isn't two UC's, I believe it's a latency issue that causes a player's model not to be set correctly.
[B]4.[/B] I'm thinking of just removing collision between pigs. That would also stop some of the exploits requiring you to stack.
[B]5.[/B] Hm, not a lot of ways I can fix that without being hacky. It's a Source engine thing that lets you keep momentum by jumping. I've already introduced that UC jump penalty, we'll see.
Thanks for the contribution. :3:
Some kind of proportional buff/nerf for the Chimera based on how many Pigmasks there are. Perhaps not 'needed' in the strictest sense, but if the Chimera doesn't change in some way based on team size the balance is always going to be a little bit screwy.
your welcome ;)
Great mod!
I've been pretty active at finding glitches and related exploits, so I'll get the time to post all the glitches I've found/co-founded or that I'm just aware of, if no-one has done so by the time I will.
If anything else pops up during that time, I'll make you notifyed, although Jeff (xsjefkex) is more of the man to do it :)
I remember testing this. Lots of fun.

General things like sprint and roar recharge buffs, and maybe a tad faster run speed? Beyond that do you have any other suggestions in terms of buffs?

By all means, post them.
Looks brilliant, but all the servers running it seem empty, sadly.
