[L4D & L4D2] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

Another L4D(2) gameplay fix i don't expect Valve to do, in my lifetime.


Stuck Zombies - ducking, floating, or else not stagger-able; the worst kind of course being those which attack you still - will not escape your close combat wrath anymore. They'll die to your second melee blow.

Now also hits Zombies which dont trigger the entity_shoved event! (AKA the unhittables) All you must do is aim at them as you melee!



CVARS:

l4d_stuckzombiemeleefix_version


CHANGELOG:

1.0.0 - Release
1.0.1 - Added functionality to smash un-hittable Zombies too
1.0.2 - fixed log error in case zombie died during function
1.0.3 - more check code to prevent errors in log
1.0.4 - Sound Hook Callback Array error fix

Will test, though I don't think I've actually run into this before

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

So, this will fix those un-meleeable zombies stuck in tables?

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

It should, yes.

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

You're awesome. Thanks!

Stay between coffe machine & table on the dinning room in NM3 and lure some zombies to you .... they get stuck on the table and you aren't able to melee them..

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

Didn't seem to work too well for me. Here's a demo.

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

On first glance what i wrote about above is happening - there is no hit registered at all (no smacking sound).

Ill look into it.


EDIT:

Yes, its a graphical glitch. You must aim as if he was under the table (which for the server he is).

Re: [L4D] Stuck Zombie Melee Fix
 

Alright. I'll try that.

Yup. Aiming down did it. Moving it out of /disabled :P.
Would it be possible to make the plugin aim down for you, per say?

First i'd have to check for Zombies infront of the player. The only way i know if is looping all Entities ...

Looping a few hunded calls every time a Player melees? I dont think so :shock:
