the good die early, the best never and the very best build a fanclub (r.i.p. sam?)

**Aberration** · 24.02.2009, 01:04

i made a bug list of sam and noticed that there r only a few bugs who r annoying. maybe someone here has enough skill and interest to fix them which would be a great gift to the still existing sam community. it would be also fine if someone could fix only one bug then i will search for other persons who can do the rest. there r still people who enjoy playing this old game and without some really annoying bugs it would live much longer, yet. so if someone could do this, here is the bug list and an additional wish list which is less important. i thaught of the 1.07 version with the netcode from 1.05. so just take the best and mix it:

------------------------------------------------

servercrash bug +
full server bug +
reconnect to server after level change bug(is already fixed in the 1.05 netcode)

swimming bug (How to eliminate swim bug can be found here)

aim doesn't fit to crosshair in third person mode over large range bug(differently aiming point in first and third person and an empty space u cant aim to in third person, the crosshair from 3rd person just isnt accurate. this isnt fixable with hud_bcrosshairfixed=1

u get a point if u kill the body while the player is respawning bug

u can go out of some maps bug

prediction bug if u stand on an elevator and see urself shaking around
---------------------------------------------------

and the wish list:

coloured server names

integrated->script against those annoying large names, autodownload, pups remover, server gui, ranker, serversafer ( already existing so very easy)

(only fully loaded shots of grenades and cannons, and a railgun added for mapmakers)<- opinions might be different, so its less important ( particulate already fixed in the tfm mod)

integrated fixed santasam bug, brighter kleer and steve(already existing, so very easy)

anti cheat solution(check for additional files and programs, in process by angelo)

no redscreen

increasing the polling rate from 20hz to 100hz and prediction for urself always on like in sharp turning, removing of sharp turning instead
--------------------------------------------------------------

i thaught of an new patch 2.00 with all the benefits of those former patches mixed that everybody would install. maybe someone could fix some of those bugs, this would be really great .

from what i know now most of those bugs r already fixed. someone just has to add all those fixes to one new patch.

if your server is full without players in, just restart your serious sam and open your server again

...or you kick the non-connected clients

how kick someone who don't joined the server? LOL

we can still ban IPs with /addipmask("ipadress")

**Joakim** · 24.02.2009, 17:32

/NetworkInfo()

Then you check which clients are "connecting", those are the slot-filling clients who are not in the game. After that, you just kick as usual with /KickClient(client nr,"reason")

so some players that we see with /listplayers() can not be connected? they take place in the server and some other players can't join it? i understand now why i join a server with 10/12 and it's full

thx for the cod

Angelo has been working on:
- anti cheat solution (not done

)
- script against those annoying large names (done

, but is removed from download section since some were abusing it)
+ serversafer (done

)
+ ranker (https://xepher.100s.nl/top100.php for an example)

also i've been working on an 1.08 previously, with a lot of bug fixes.. but didn't release it

(damn ive been working on A LOT. 0.o)

1.yea it can be funny but it seems it isnt funny for most players so it has to be fixed, im afraid

2.its already finished. but what means they abused it? can u remake it in a way that others cant abuse it anymore, ys?

3.yea its funny but it really would be a solution to just use the right part of the code of 1.05 to fix this server bugs. u dont even know how to code in c++.

and it also would be great to add the other inventions of angelo to the patch, i'll edit the first post. nice work, angelo

and thx stifmeister, so the most bugs can be fixed without inventing new code.

i'm positively surprised about the answers. i think its possible.

Well it was there, but people started ripping the script so that they can use it on other servers..

Yeah, I mean those bugs didn't exist in 1.05. They came to 1.07 only.

Give it to server admins ONLY.

**Scratch** · 24.02.2009, 22:39

Yeah well.. if they abuse it theirselves.. =/
