Two "bugs" in Abe´s Exxodus?
 
I am playing this days again AE and I think I have discovered two “bugs” in our lovely game:


1- This really isn´t a bug perhaps more a incongruence....We take the FeeCo train to Bonewerks, and when we are arrived Bonewerks we see for a little instant “slig barracks”zone. I personally think that would be better if they had put this scene when we are arriving to slig barracks, no?


2- I think this really is a bug: Before enter the Bonewerks door, you know there has a coat with meat and bones (for slogs), well, when you jump when falls.... a rock!!!! it sees clearly, not a meat piece (in addition sound like the stone´s sound ), all this would not have importance, but the slogs, eat the stones !!!!!!!!!.

Slogs eats stones=a new race!!!!!!!


Anyway, I comment this like a curiosity, because like all we know, our two loved games, are really full of successes and wonders, not bugs...

1- I don't really know what you're taling about, sorry

2 - I think that it's not meat that falls from the sack, it's bone. More specifically, I think it's supposed to be a piece of a bone.

Crazy Vykker 07-19-2001 03:54 PM

2- aaaaahh, very interesting

Alector 07-19-2001 04:16 PM

3- Bugs are really unimportant, the great thing is that we can play the game, or????!!!!

4- ....uuum...The meat looks like Stones, Crazy... i think the Slogs never would eat stones! LOL!!!! Or perhaps the meat is moldy and looks like stones!

5- or it's a new kind of meat in Oddworld..Abe need it to destroy bombs! It's good to feed Slogs and to destroy bombs with them!

OK????

it isn't meat or stones, it's BONES! it's called BONEwerkz! and there's a sign inside saying 'Give a Slog a BONE'. BONE! BONE! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!! *slobber* bones! bones! *drool*

Alector 07-20-2001 01:28 PM

Re the second one... I am in agreeance w/ Rettick... it is a bone. There is another section of Bonewerkz where you need to go down a series of lifts and guide Mudokons past Slogs... and I am sure that you throw bones to them... not meat (or rocks).

Crazy Vykker 07-24-2001 06:37 AM

Yes, all of you are right, they are bones but....... this bones looks like stones

ODDBODD 07-25-2001 08:28 AM

You freaking psycho chicken! how could you not tell that its a bone!! ANYHOO SOME OTHER GLITCHES ARE

- screen freezing after throwing rocks
- slig never stop shooting (it happened)
- you can just jump down a safe place and die
- Abe doesn't have raging firarms!! http://www.duhspot.com/users/smiley/...ipersmilie.gif

Capri Ream 07-26-2001 04:34 PM

I didn't really find any of those bugs in my game. So either 1)there not in my or 2)I don't really pay attention to bugs that much and I'm preety sure that it's number 2. ;)

Danny 07-26-2001 04:53 PM

sometimes after i died, the last save point came up, but abe didn't appear, so i just had to switch off and start again...

One, Two, Middlesboogie 07-26-2001 05:39 PM

Yeah, I noticed that the vid sequence of the trian going to Bonewerkz looks as though it should be going to Slig Barracks. That's not really a bug though.

Here's a really weird bug I found in AO, though:
There's a secret area in the Stockyards. Its bird portal is hidden in shadows. In the same screen is a security orb and a UXB. The screen above is a cliff that you must climb down, and the screen to the left has two Sligs, which you must lure to the screen with the UXB after switching it on. Do you know the secret area I'm talking about? (If not, I'll find its area code)

Anyway, in the secret area, there are two Mudokons (and two Sligs, one of whom you kill with another UXB). After freeing the Muds, sometimes my game slows down for a few seconds, then freezes completely for a moment. When the action starts again after a few secs, Abe has turned into a grey rectangle! And the remaining Slig is just a dotted purple outline! I'm not joking, honestly! The weird thing is, even though Abe is just a rectangle, he can still do all the things he can normally do! Until he dies, in which case he goes back to being normal.

Strange or what?

Danny 07-26-2001 07:35 PM

that IS strange. never happened to mee....

General Drippik 07-26-2001 11:51 PM

I found another bug on AE. If you pocess a slig and save the game while he's going all wobbly, turn off the game and turn it back on. Go from where you saved it and the slig will be fluro blue! Well it might not be but that's what happened to me anyway.

One, Two, Middlesboogie 07-27-2001 06:27 AM

Yes, I discovered that too! I do it slightly differently, though. You have to quicksave when the possessed Slig flashes green (not necessarily while he's all wobbly), then kill Abe somehow (either by shooting/bombing him with the Slig, or dispossessing the Slig and walking into a mine or off a cliff). Whent he game restarts, the Slig will indeed be glowing green!
It even works with Paramites and Scrabs! It works with Glukkons too, but they glow blue instead of green.

abe22 07-27-2001 07:33 AM

This isn't really a bug but I put godmode on and I got hit by a lot of greeters and then all of a sudden I was invisable but abe could still talk to other mudos.
And I also found a bug in bonewerks you know where you have to turn off all the workwheels well in 1 of them theres lots of bombs and when you stand on a ledge you jump upwards and then abes HANGING on to that same ledge after you have jumped upwards. Every time I played it it happened.

One, Two, Middlesboogie 07-27-2001 07:56 AM

Yep, I found both of those too.

In AO, there's another weird ledge bit. When you've done Paramonia & Scrabania and got the Shrykull off of Bigface, you have to head back to the screen in the Monsaic Lines with 3 Sligs, 2 security orbs and about 4 mines, and blow the whole lot up. When all the bad stuff's gone, you climb up a mushroom-shaped rock that the mines were on. When you hoist yourself down on the other side, you expect Abe to face left. But he actually faces right, with his back to the mushroom rock. Strange.

General Drippik 07-28-2001 02:25 AM

Yep. That's happened to me to. I hate it. I just turn invincibility off and go jump off a cliff or something. Oh, that reminds me. If you do have invinsibility on, jump off a cliff so you fall down on your back and you will survive.

abe22 07-28-2001 08:54 AM

Also in the stockyard theres a secret where you have to rescue 3 mudos and you have to run back and forth well in this secret what I did was I went in and then chanted and went back out and the scrabs in the stockyards didn't kill me I tried chanting right next to them but nooo they wouldn't kill me all they did was howl all the time strange huh

dumboddrw2 07-28-2001 01:30 PM

Here's a bug. On the screen in Feeco,with the very first No Farts sign over the door,and the orb and the 4 Sligs,when you possess these Sligs,the X button doesn't work.

Alector 07-28-2001 08:27 PM

oh, yeah...i know this! i've possessed a Slig who didn't moved...lol, that was strange :confused:

General Drippik 07-28-2001 10:45 PM

You can make a flying slig fly backwards. Just stand still, then make him say something. Make him keep saying it then go backwards the oppisite way he is facing. He will go backwards. Also if you run into a wall while doing this you won't be able to talk. But you can still shoot.

Danny 07-29-2001 09:02 PM

another bug i remembered: about a quarter of the time, when i possess a slig, the gamespeak and guns don't work.

how do you do this invincibility thing? i've never heard of this...

Cloverfield 07-30-2001 04:45 AM

I found a couple of bugs last night when I was playing Abe's Exoddus on PC.

I was in Bonewerkz (I didn't note down the screen code, but it was where you have two Sligs on a platform and one Mudokon... you need to sneak past the sligs to get to a lever which sounds an alarm).

I walked (instead of sneaking) from one screen to the next and could hear shots from one of the Sligs. When the next screen came up I could see the bullets flying at Abe, but I didn't die.

The second one was also in Feeco Depot in a secret area and I pressed the left arrow to move Abe and he kept chanting (I had just dispossessed a Slig).
