Archon Armors Bugged

[efraim14]

Sorry for asked one more,

I have weird bug, i dont know why it still happen even if im using retail file (or not).

anyway it's 2.1.6, FYI. So 2 pieces set already gives bonus.

Okay here it is,

So if my player use full set AA melee, they will get 35% attack 115% def, 2 MS bla bla.
When they trade their set into Superior set, the effect still stands in character info (looks like client side), but the MS also still stand, and the damage / def is effecting in real PvP also (so now it becomes server side). They run fast in basic armor and hit hard.

i have used retail server file (setitemeff). And also retail client files (setitemeffect and setitemeffectw.edf). But the bug still working.

Thanks if anyone could help.

Sounds similar to a bug people exploited on a 2.2.3 server i was running. You need to increase the equip time so it takes them longer to change out the sets to avoid it bugging out.

They changing out the armor too quickly and the zone is not registering it correctly and leaving the bonuses effects. Alter it server side in the armor files this is if you have the correct strs if not use stream editor since the templates will allow you to change the equip time.

if i edit this one is this affecting change when they want to change Favor / Grace / Darkness glove?

What is the best time to edit the equip time if you still remember the best time?

thanks.

 

[Busman]

It will only effect the time it takes to remove a armor piece or equip it will not effect talics in the armor or bonus effects. Sorry don't remember but increasing it to equipping time to 2 or 3 seconds per archon armor piece should fix it.

no i mean switching it in pvp situation. Usually you have 3 gloves in-game. Favor, Darkness, and Grace.

And when you are going to hit a dodger, you will use grace glove, then you are going to switch the armor.

If i edit the equip time, will this affect to it?

Yes, it will take a little longer to switch gear. Either have the bug or have the delay, can't get rid of both.

 

[efraim14]

sorry bumping for 2 weeks thread.

Okay i have edited the server side, but as you know the number is in float. It may become faster if i increase it or vice versa.

If i could know, into what numbers you guys made it for 2 seconds equipping in the edit server side?


thanks for answer

 

[Busman]

Use Stream edit lite + the 2.2.3.2 Templates since it displays the equip time as its clearer using it. If you post a screen shot showing how your equip time is displayed in your strs once you open the .dat file it would help.

Regarding my AA bug, do you think it's because i setting the AA level to 60 instead of 55? because i want people to get Boost jade before they could use their AA, but maybe that is the cause which makes everyone can abuse the setitemeffect that they get from those AA, and they can get the effect using the superior armor instead AA.

 

[Busman]

It is not related to the armor level and also they could abuse it with any other armor they wanted but in your case your server must have superior armor easy to obtain so they use that. It means they get better effects from it instead of using normal or intense armor.

idk about the armor level but my max caps level is 55, and if you want to use AA, you need 5 BJ for that. i never heard about the AA equipping time glitch on 2.1.6, and other server also doesn't having these kind of glitch. We will try to revert it back to 55 and will report then.

We also doing the 2 seconds delay equipping time though, but it still glitching.

 

[efraim14]

okay the bug users told me how to do it and it's something with quick changing (the AA will be transferred to another bag instead the bag number that he change the AA), and then the bonus stat remains.

So i wonder if the AA delay time will be works. i'll post my editor later, im not at my home atm.

with Stream Editor:


with DAT Editor:


you can see at the screenshot that we already tried to vary the equip speed to 100 second, but as we test it, it's still fast to change that armor. anyway this is 2.1.6 server

 

[efraim14]

anyone can help with Fritz's picture given above?

Thanks before.

Sir Busman, I have tried changing EquipSpeed in server side, but it didn't change the equip speed, it change how many stamina we used when running with AA armor put on, there's no different of equip speed change time. can you help me sir?

 

[Busman]

Hmm i will have to investigate this further and until i do i cannot give back any feed back since this was an untested method for me.

hmm is there any suggestion how to fix it, maybe do some trick or modifying it?

 

[Busman]

without downloading and setting up a 2.1.6 sever i am unable to say if what i suggest will work.

Just found this thread, I got the same glitch ongoing on my server.
As u already mentioned it is some glitch with fast armor switching, however increasing the armor switch time doesnt seem to be the right fix.
It just fuckes up the server because people are complaining about there gloves, which they need for pvping.

This is my first 2.1.6 server but I have played alot of RF servers and never encountered this bug, so you might gives us some hint how this bug or glitch works, so we can search for another fix.
