Glitches aren't glitches if you used a hack.

HAHA! Another Abe's Oddysee glitch! I found this while making a glitch vid to go with an LP I'm working on.

Alright. You know the bee hive in Paramonia that you need to hit with a rock to stop Elum eatng the honey? Well, occassionally if you wait for the bees to stop attacking Elum, you can hit the bee hive again (while it's on the ground) and bees come out!

Admiral Zaarin 12-15-2009 02:41 AM

In Scrabania, as you know, there are some pits that you have to jump with Elum as there are bats flying near their edges. But if you throw a rock at one of those bats both of them will disappear and you'll be able to jump that pit with Abe. But this may not always work.

marlz 12-16-2009 11:11 PM

Another way to do it is to make Elum fall down the hole by himself but using a rock is less cruel I have to say.

And back to when I was talking about Elum not regenerating, I found out what was going on.
Ok. Go to the screen with the first set of three moving bombs in Scrabania. Then run back to the previous screen and die. Abe will regenerate in the screen with the moving bombs but Elum will not.
Now, why and how does this work and where is Elum? Well, I tried pulling this off in a different spot and discovered that if you die in certain places in certain ways, Abe and Elum can reload in different spots to one another. And here are the screenshots to prove it!
No, ddcheat was not used as it is the PlayStation version.

disappearing and teleporting paramite glitch
 
paramite glitch if you are chanting at the right time, right place and paramites are comming, then chant in right time and one of paramites will diasappear and the paramite will teleporting at the start. This glitch does not working on PC version.

EDIT: Oh crap... I did it again. It's me T-nex posting from Chris's account cos I forgot to log off... SORRY! x_x


Original Message:
Me and CHris were playing AO the other day, and I was trying to get through Rupture farms. I decided to go visit Zulag 2, even though I knew it was closed, but on the way back, when the animation stopped everything froze, and what happened next was that all the sounds from the CGs played one after another. As if something had triggered all the sound files to play. Even the ones from the various door-scenes.

It was weird. But we lost all the progress :( boo.

Isn't that just the second paramite, the one that fell down the gap?

fastability 12-29-2009 07:11 AM

yup

marlz 12-31-2009 05:51 PM

Oh! That chanting glitch works in a similar way with Scrabs as well. If you chant at the right moment just when a Scrab is about to jump over a gap, the Scrab won't jump and will fall down the hole instead.

Also, I discovered that if you chant near a chant suppressor and drop 9 grenades, when they all explode the game (usually) freezes. I think it's due to the fact that the game can't cope with that many explosions on screen at the same time, but I'm not entirely sure.

And if any of you are feeling brave, go to Paramonia, let the bees from the first beehive come after you and try going down a lift. You will be surprised by what Abe does.

Well, glitches thread was gone, so I created it again. That was one of my favorite thread, so i had to put it back. Hope this thread does not harm anyone, especially administrators. Well, anyway here is some glitches what happened to me little while ago.

EDIT: I thought this thread was deleted, so I was misunderstanding.

Seriously... only three months old. A simple search would have found it for you.

Double bees nest glitch
Invisible Elum

marlz 07-05-2010 12:26 AM

In Scrabania, when you possess the Slig (in the fourth area, with the BOOM! lever), as soon as you get him going down on the lift, try shooting.
TADAAA! The lift will keep going down and the possessed Slig will shoot, successfully terminating the other sleeping Slig.


Not a wonderous one, but still wanted to contribute it.
And check out LoStraniero91's Big Glitch Vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNSMVs74j1E). It's got a ton of glitches, and I've seen a fair few of them while playing myself.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-07-2010 08:42 AM

in the area where there is a sleeping slig and an electric fence on the next screen, there is a secret area, (the one after the page with the bombs) go in the secret area and grab a grenade, then throw the grenade and wait for it to explode, then get another one and sit next to it facing the opposite way, hold square and keep turning round while crouching, you grab loads of grenades! but if you get to many the game crashes lol.

marlz 07-07-2010 10:48 PM

I remember picking up a grenade and using all but one, then somehow being able to get more from the grenade machine. Each time I went back for more, my total number of grenades increased by 1 (first 5, then 6, then 7, etc.). The weird thing is that when I did it after collecting 9, instead of saying 10 it had a very, very small happy Mudokon face.

... I'm still not sure whether this was a dream or if it really did happen, but I nearly pulled it off using meat in Paramonian Temple (I managed to be holding 2 meat). So does anyone know if this can actually happen?

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-08-2010 01:58 AM

yeah thats what i meant, but you have to be crouching down and holding square to do it, but if you use or pick up to many grenades, the game crashes, its really annoying as well lol. and do you know how in abes oddysee if you kill all the mudokons you get infinate grenades from rupture farms 2, well the sign above your head when you throw one is a 0, not an infinate sign, because infinate signs arne't even on the game (unlike abes exoddus), but when i used the glitch for ages, it had the infinate sign. if youve played the games as much as me youll know what im talking about.

Holy Sock 07-08-2010 09:27 AM

I forget where this is, but there's a secret area with lots of Slogs in AE. The only way to bypass it is using Shryskull. After usage, sometimes a bolt of lightning remains on the screen.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! 07-08-2010 09:39 AM

yeah i know that, its somwhere in soulstorm brewery.

Odd-Glitches :D
 
I just found the strangest glitch in Abe's Oddysee :)
Apparently when you get more than 2 scrabs fighting on screen, the 3rd one disappears and is automatically killed along with the loser of the original 2 :fuzconf:

This happened on screen # DP208C06

Goresplatter 08-02-2010 12:59 PM

When possessing a Paramite or Scrab, if you unpossess or quick-save/load at just the right time (I forgot which one it is now) said Paramite or Scrab will remain the flourescent green tinge that they flash when the possession takes hold. You can use this for the plain humour of it, or if you want to see which Scrab wins the fight as you can now differentiate between the two.

Another one was on one of the first screens of the Brewery in Exoddus, if you possessed the Glukkon and got into a position where you could move to and from the screen with the sleeping crawling Slig, you could create the infinite Slig glitch. Basically, you need to shout "HELP!" to get the Slig to go get his pants, then once he's got them, leave and return, and the crawling Slig will be back. Repeat process until you've got well over 30 Sligs. From there it begins to get laggy, and I had some fun making them all shoot each other in the same spot at the same time.

Stranger4002 08-02-2010 01:09 PM

I think I had the same Glitch; if not, it was something very similar...I defiantly remember Abe riding on Elum then falling but not dying. This too happened in Paramonia if I remember correctly. Very strange. :/
