Dang! Abe's a daredevil! xD I'm gonna have to try that one out for myself!

It looks like the Slig is dancing! :lol:

Great glitches! :D

Chubfish 02-16-2008 07:12 AM

I like your glitches. Maybe you could do the Elum glitch and make elum meet slogs?

Where elum can meet slogs? if you mean the end of scrabania, no i can't nobody can do it, only
with -ddcheat, but i haven't got PC version. ;)

OddYouko 02-16-2008 12:57 PM

Yeah I even tried that myself but couldn't do it. =____=

In Paramonia after you get passed the bee run and go on to the next screen to pull the lever so you can get the whistle get Elum to fall down with you then go all the way down riding Elum till you reach the floor and run to the left. If you keep hitting the wall long enough(I forget how long I had to keep going) they will both go through the wall and disappear. I went all the way to the left and never came back. =/

Why? Your glitches are awesome! Can you post them on here please?

The other day I was playing AE and a Slog was chasing me so I threw a piece of meat so the Slog would go after it but I quickly rolled past the Slog and got the meat first but the Slog keep walking until it ran into a wall then attacked me.

MeechShrykull1029 04-13-2008 04:10 PM

I had lots of glitches, but I'll just tell you my coolest one. In Scrabania, when Elum eats honey, I went to the the screen with the well and the slig in the background. Whe I went to the next screen the lever was there but so was the well! I went back and the game froze

GlacierDragon 04-14-2008 07:53 AM

I've got one. In the paramonian temple (i can't remember which bit) there's a bit where you have to get to a story stone that is guarded by a paramite. However you can't get to it because you end up backing the paramite against a wall. But I found that if you just walk up to it, the paramite freezes and you can get to the story stone. This happens every single time i play that level.

MeechShrykull1029 04-14-2008 02:38 PM

Is that the part where you have to whistle to the native mudokon to get the spirit rings?

Wolfie-Dark Steef 04-14-2008 04:53 PM

In Stranger's Wrath, if you have the invinibility cheat in and you get crushed by something (that would normally kill Stranger), you turn invisible, and it's annoying because you can't move in 3rd person at all.

I tried it with all the parts with Paramites guarding Story Stones, and it doesn't work. Do you have the PC version?

No, I have the PS version. I'll try and find the place where the paramite freezes using good 'ol level select.

MeechShrykull1029 04-20-2008 01:00 PM

There are only 2 places where Paramites guard story stones. They both don't work, and I have the PlayStation version.

OddYouko 04-21-2008 04:10 PM

I was playing Abe's Oddysee about an hour ago in Scrabania. I had cleared everything from the very start of the level to the end were you have to leave poor Elum. But I didn't go that far to meet the Slogs. I still had Elum with me. :) So I began making my way back to the beginning so I could then go through the level without any bombs following me. So I got to the part with the honey. Elum took a step forward and just stood there. I didn't know what he was doing so I made Abe mount him...and that's were I messed up. :dead: :mad: Because of this I had to do it all over again. Right when Abe got on him Elum walked over to the honey and started licking it with Abe STILL on him.

I did it again and got this. :mad: :lol:

Lol, that's quite a nice glitch.

MeechShrykull1029 05-10-2008 08:18 AM

If you drop a Mudokon through the trapdoor to the fourth secret area of RuptureFarms, you will hear him land safely, but when you go there, he won't be there, and there will be one more casualty on the status indicator.

Bullet Magnet 05-12-2008 09:31 PM

My game was crashing in Paramonia where you last possess the sligs at the end of the level. I managed to save it during the crash somehow- bad idea. Whenever I load that save, for the first life elum is completely frakked. He doesn't flinched when you get on him, he glides along the ground instead of running and doesn't stop, often with Abe facing the wrong way, or leaving him floating in the air behind, he is unresponsive to Gamespeak and randomly falls through the floor to his (and your) death.

OddYouko 05-13-2008 08:51 AM

I've been knowing about that one MeechShrykull1029 but its still funny. :lol:

So you can't play it without it glitching up BM? That's gotta suck. O_o

Is that not because he gets shot at by the slig you put down there earlier?

MeechShrykull1029 05-13-2008 04:47 PM

You don't put a Slig there.

Naw, I dragged myself into the temple and saved, 'sall good now.

OddYouko 05-14-2008 07:04 AM

Ok. :)

Maybe when the Mud falls through the trap door he's not supposed to be there and it just automadicly counts as a death?

Abe's Exoddus - Wierdest Glitch
 
The strangest thing happened the other day. I was in Slig Barracks, part 2 of Block 4, and when I pressed the Circle button to get out a grenade to throw, one of 3 things happened:

1. Abe disappeared and was replaced with a square of pixelated mess, the grenade deactivated, and I couldn't move Abe at all. :fuzconf:

2. Same as above, but then the grenade blew up and I couldn't stop it. :fuzconf: :fuzconf:

3. The game froze for half a second, and then everything was fine. :fuzblink:


Very weird. If I had a screenshot, I'd post it, but I don't.


EDIT: Has anyone mentioned the glitch in Abe's Oddysee that only happens if you use an emulator?
When I get to RuptureFarms II, the ring in Zulag 1 (which reveals a secret passage) is gone, as well as the one at the end of the Board Room. This glitch is so bad that it stops you from finishing the game, and can only be avoided by using the level select cheat.

It is, thats just a comparison between the 2. One with the slig, one with abey. I cant get there with Abe any more, but for the slig you get 2 steps away then run and walk at the wall.

How did you get there with Abe?

I know you don't remember exactly, but did you roll? run? walk?

I'm going to do some testing for my speedrun.

Grandi 09-25-2008 08:34 AM

I found a scrapglitch from AO. I saw when the scrap went throught that wall and didn't came back even if Abe was standing on same stage for a minute. I dunno why it did this... Note: The image shows only the place and the wall, and can't prov the glitch.

antd 09-26-2008 06:00 AM

There's a glitch which I found that makes the boulder disappear in Paramonian Temple.
The boulder which chases you as you near the lever. This saves a lot of time.

This glitch and others are exploited in my 'perfect speedrun':
http://www.oddworldforums.net/showthread.php?t=17402

You'll see this glitch used in the video of the next stage.

Abe's Oddysee
 
Disappearing Spirit Rings Video?

Do you normally lose spirit rings if you do this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evzrOHwLZXg

I know in PC version you do not lose it. But it seems in PSX version you do lose it.

Can someone test this?

Grandi 10-03-2008 02:06 AM

I found a graphical clitch in the intro! Watch this in point 1:07-1:08. See the background walls behind Abe? That two have exactly the same texture! I was shocked when I realized that OI has done such a mistake :P

The other walls are unique.

Oddworld Game Glitches(V2)
 
I've decided to reimmerse myself in this forum with a good-ole fashion Glitch thread.

Spirrow's glitches:

Long falls:
In AE (PS version), I found it somewhat ammusing and useful to use the infinite health(?) cheat to stay alive. But one particularly useful glitch when the code is activated (in Slig Barracks) is to jump a chasm and smack into a wall causing Abe to fall back and land on his back on the main floor, about two screens below and simply get up. Normally such a fall would kill him, cheat of not, but apparently not when done the way described above.

What about you.

Wil 10-25-2008 02:03 PM

The previous and only Glitches thread was still on the first page, so they are now merged. Well glitched all the same. This comes in very handy throughout AE, although I can’t off the top of my head recall where in Slig Barracks this would be particularly useful.

Spirrow 10-28-2008 09:26 AM

Ach, I must have missed it.
Sorry.

Edit:
It's been a while since I played AE, but there was one section that had a number a pulleys and platforms and I believe if you walk into a screen on the left you'd find trapdoor-like platfoms with mines next to them, that when the open and close, make a sort of rythym-like tick-tock sound while mudokon are all depressed beneath.

I considered that why the mudokon were so depressed.

abe is now! 11-01-2008 04:30 AM

Long ago I was playing AE and I was using the invincibility cheat... I reached some Greeters and they tried to zap Abe but he couldn't die, but the laser hit him anyway and Abe became invisible XD He wasn't really invisible because the Mudokons, the Sligs, the Slogs, ect could see him, but I couldn't see him XD

OddYouko 11-01-2008 07:25 AM

Yeah I love doing that glitch abe is now! xD

I don't know if I said anything about this one but in AO at the beginning of the Stockyards Abe ran and jumped over the gap with those three stupid red bombs but right when he was about to land he disappeared!
I kept pressing buttons but nothing happend...it still had the music playing o__O
I don't remember if he ever came back. xD So I had to turn it off then back on. :lol:

abe is now! 11-01-2008 12:08 PM

In a AO's secret area (I don't remember in wich level) I made some Mudokons disappear XD I don't remember how I could do it, but I got angry because I was going to save all the Mudokons!

That not a glitch. The texture is so vague you really wouldn'y look twice.
I've noticed it tons of times.
