I'll post this over at Clans United.

OK I'll stick my head above the parapet and ask what an impulse exploit is.3

It's supposed to be a cheat (sv_cheats = 1), but this somehow is missed.

This plugin just keeps the recalcitrant kiddies away.

I'm non the wiser. Sorry, more detail explination for this old brain please.

Well we are trying not to spread the exploit while still providing a fix. I don't have time to explain just now, but remind me by PM later and I'll explain it if you are interested in patching this hole in your servers.

The exploit in question spawns usefull items directly infront of the player and once picked up they will respawn in that location as normal.
Going to give this a try and sprea the word.

Oh yeah I guess I could have said that much, thx Keefy.

Plugin works great on my windows server, infact so well it even works with sv_cheats on!

Yeah, technically it's a HL2 thing, not even a DM thing. So I didn't even test for sv_cheats

The metamod version crashes my server, keeps it in a constant timeout loop i have 1.43 metamod 81.19.219.24:27025
The VSP apears to work

ORLY? Windows SourceMM?

That's the one I tested it on!?!?!?!

Weird....glad the VSP is working for you.


BTW, what other plugins?

Yes its windows.
metamod_version "1.4.3.656V"
mani_admin_plugin_version "1.2BetaS SMM"
No other plugins apart from you impulse exploit.
I will try again in the morning, was just a quick test Imay have missed something.

Download it again. The first one didn't work for me either. I think I included a debug build.

Once you download the new one it should work.

Looks like Keeper is human after all. I was beginning to get suspicious.

Nah--he is a Strogg. Just look at his baby picture for proof

Didn't you ever wonder what a combine really looked like under that suit?

I don't know what WT has working on his end , but I know VALVe definitely knows about this. Not saying a solution is forthcoming anytime soon, but it is known.

One hour ago, a member of my clan has just showed to me a video about the impulse bug...
(we are a bit late compare to all of you)
After trying it on my servers, I was searching for a solution to prevent that... and i fall here
One time again, Keeper is the man who save the world ... Many thanks for that.

I was just wondering, almost a year later, why isn't this plugin in the DMU training server yet?



Btw, nice T-shirt, keeper!

Good question, I've asked it many times!
