Weirdest (unedited) Screenshots Ever

Thought I might start a fun activity. This is pretty much just a thread where you can post all sorts of glitches taking their course during a normal session of gaming. Photoshop = teh suxxorz.

Here are mine:

No Waypoint Here

Max Damage < Min Damage?

 

[JihadJesus]

I dont have any hosted, but the wierdest I've got is my Merc, poisoned in town with 0 HP, and walking around like nothing's the matter. And I KNOW mercs die to poison, I've seen it; even if poison doesn't kill mercs 0 HP = Dead by definition, so it's still an odd shot.

 

[bradley_turner]

mercs no longer die in town but take the damage none the less, however if you take him back outta town im like 99% sure he dies immediately

i dont really have any really weird screenshots

 

[Vajar]

it probably had fractional life left - hp in the game is counted in fractions of 256, so its possible it had fractional life left, and the character screen doesn't round up when the hp hits zero - we all know it lies

For some reason, the background graphic of a stationary barrel superimposed over the image of my valkyrie. I snapped the screenie between her attacks, when her upper body was fully "eclipsed". I dunno, wooden armor protection? Catapult-proof headgear?

I've had the Waypoint-less Glacial Trail before. A few people have reported that. Must be theres a few bad map seeds.

 

[somethingsin]

well, I don't have anywhere to host pics, but I've seen something pretty weird:

I was hanging in one of the hell-type pits in act 5, and I encountered a bunch of enslaved type monsters with overseers, floating over the lava surrounding the place

 

[MCCCXXXVII]

I've got a few funny screenies sitting around. I've got one of a boss pack of foul crow nests , one of the mythical act 3 map where the flayer jungle is joined to the spider forest, and one of the time that meph dropped 3 berserker's headgears at once.

Unfortunately, I can't be bothered hosting them .

I had the no waypoint thing once, in the act1 catacombs.

I had some shots of bugs regarding mercs but i cant seem to find them, maybe forgot to make a backup when i formatted. I remember there was one time when my merc got hit hard by a conviction bosspack, only like 50 HP left. I escaped to town but the conviction stayed active on my merc IN TOWN. Had to restart the game to make it go away. Also revived my merc once (only once ? ) after he died from meph's cold ball en he was still chilled.

This is something from 1.09, but still interesting :

The flayer jungle and spider forest link is rare, but its not a bug, its just the way the map seed is done. whats really annoying is the first time i found 1 of those maps i had gone through the entire great marsh, looking for the exit first, then whilst backtracking, i see a area in the spider forest i misses, and it led to flayer jungle, so i actually still did the entire great marsh.
As for odd screenshots, i have 1 of a monster stuck on a little island in the frozen river, and the island was just about big enough for the monster, which just stood there with no way of moving.

 

[MCCCXXXVII]

Yeah... I know it's not a bug. Interesting, though - and people are often talking about such maps.

Is there only one seed that spawns the forest/jungle link, or are there a few? Is it even possible to get the same map twice? I know it was is D1....

 

[farting bob]

ive had 2 different maps that have the join in on the same characte (1 in NM, then a different 1 in hell) so i dont know how many maps have this 'feature'.

 

[Shagsbeard]

That's wierd... I have the flayer jungle connected to the spider forest nine times out of ten. I can't rememeber the last time I went to the great marsh. One more bit of evidence that supports the nagging suspision that we really aren't playing exactly the same game.

 

[farting bob]

damn you shagsbeard. ive only had 3 or 4 of these maps in 1.10.

 

[Reborn2k]

Like Shagsbeard I had to walk through the great marsh only one time! I do screenshots frequently, so I will see what I can upload. I currently have 55 screenies in my D2 folder, although not all are funny... ^^

I wouldn´t call that annoying. You got more XP and found more items. And the Great Marsh rocks!! :uhhuh: :lol:

(sorry, couldn´t resist).
I get the Spider Forest - Flayer Jungle link about half the time. It doesn´t matter to me if I get it or not (I always do full clears), but I feel for you who don´t want to play Great Marsh and find this link less often than I do.



One thing that has always puzzled me is the small rectangular island with a dead body on it that sometimes shows up in Kurast Sewers. You can´t teleport to the island (there is no "legal" room for you to stand there). You can loot the body with Telekinesis but you can´t pick up the items with it (unless it´s from the 'misc junk' TC (gold, potions, scrolls) or you are playing Classic).

Same here. The three forest levels of Act 3 are really odd in that regard. Most of the time, for me anyway, the Spider Forest splits off in two directions at one point, usually where the river splits into two, and one way will lead to the Great Marsh, the other to the Flayer Jungle. It's that way on my Sorc's current map and it's happened to me dozens of times with other characters.

Never had the waypointless Glacial Trail, though - that's a new one on me.

I'd love to post something, but it'd need to be a moving shot rather than just a still picture, is when you shatter something that has been hit with Open Wounds. I noticed this in 1.09 when my Barb was wearing Iceblink and two Ripsaws. Most of the enemies would bleed from being hit with the Open Wounds, and their corpses would continue to spurt blood, but with Iceblink everything he killed would shatter, and yet the blood kept spurting literally out of thin air. Pretty amusing, actually.

Edit:

:lol: Wouldn't it be funny if you Telekinesised that corpse and something like a Windy popped out but you had no way to collect it? You'd just have to sit there and watch it go to waste?

Actually, I've seen a few of those same type areas that you mentioned, only with a couple of small chests on them instead of a corpse. Thing is, though, my Sorc was able to teleport onto the little island. *shrugs*

Mercs can still die in town, I just had my trusty ol' merc die to the poison from the maggot lair quest boss because I just tp'd out and left the char there next to the tp in town. Went for a smoke and when I came back the merc was dead.

The thought has occurred to me...

If you talk about a symmetrical cross-shaped little island, then I know what you mean. Those are indeed possible to teleport onto. I´ve even seen an Undead Stygian Doll pack on such an island.

This is what I am talking about. If you look at the map, you´ll see a similarly shaped area further SE, with a passage out to it. This area had a golden chest. I have seen the unreachable rectangular island in at least one other type of surroundings as well, but more often than not, it´s located in exactly the type of level segement as the picture shows.

funniest thing about this screenie is that it has an Iron Wolf in it :lol:
