Discussion / Re: New Glitch - Hax Mode

« on: July 01, 2011, 11:18:25 AM »

As you can see, the glitch is ridiculously overpowered and Sage and I have decided we won't be releasing it to the public. If we were to release it, we might as well make BFE and AAM legal as well and call it the end of stock. The glitch is done completely in the botlab and doesn't use any custom components in which lies the problem. Technically, it is legal for any Stock tournament and just as fair as regular stacking, but extremely cheap and hopefully will never be released.

After 8 years of RA2 being released we are still finding new glitches. Amazing, right?

Discussion / New Glitch - Hax Mode

« on: July 01, 2011, 11:17:24 AM »

About three years ago, I was messing around with a Backyard Ripper rebuild when all of a sudden I was able to stack things wherever I wanted.

finally a weird glitch I might have discovered. While messing around with a Backyard Ripper upgrade I was able to do this. For about 20 seconds I was able to put anything in anything.
(Image removed from quote.)

I did that months before I ever posted it since I wanted to see what a few other members thought about it. None of them responded back to me so I ended up forgetting about it.


Apparently, Pyscolone discovered the same things as I did, but was never able to get it to happen 100% of the time

not really much to say until I find a surefire way for it to work 100% of the time.

Well, I did. After about an hour of fooling around with the glitch, I got it to work whenever I wanted it to. That resulted in some crazy never before seen stacking.

The best thing about it? 100% done in the botlab and technically "legal".


Before anyone says anything like "this is just the zero glitch" or "this was discovered a while ago", no. Thyrus rediscovered the Zero Glitch a while back and posted about it here:


https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,4070.msg158239.html#msg158239


and here's a few quotes proving the Zero glitch isn't really legal in the first place since it uses a custom component.

It is the Zero Glitch and as such has already been included in the rules with that name or under the category of text file editing.

it\'s just stacking?


and yes, the zero glitch was very good. but it isn\'t STOCK. it needs additional parts from outside the game (it\'s what i called text raping, he discovered it, i just perfected it, and made it smaller) i used to use it when testing concepts, to check if they work, it\'s not so good for much else.

The Zero glitch involves editing a snapper motor and making a custom component, whereas this glitch is done completely in game.


From there, I taught Sage how to execute the glitch and we began brainstorming how we could use it to its full extent. After an hour of experimentation, we found out that there were a few quirks that made the amount of stacking limited. After about another hour, we threw those quirks out the window and were now able to stack nearly any component into anything.
