Camera's With EMP Gun

Post by lactose »

i have found that whenever i try to bypass a camera that i have hit with the emp gun that can be bypassed but once it comes back on line it is still on and sounds an alarm if it see's you, even though the status is bypassed. this also means you cant try to bypass it again so the camera is stuck on

DX or TNM camera?

In case of the former, it's not a TNM bug, it's a DX bug.

Okay it's a DX bug then, you'll probably find the same thing happens if you toss an EMP grenade beneath a camera in DX :)

I am pretty sure that disables them, unlike TNM's "freak out" when hit by EMP damage.
Can somebody tell me how I can get a custom avatar?
Oh wait, I already got one...

I'm pretty sure it doesn't. But try it out and let me know. I don't have DX installed on this partition, so I can't go and see :P

As I recall, Dx cameras go into bconfused = True when hit with an EMPGrenade. This causes the camera to wiggle around in a confused state, making it unable to detect player, but it is not disabled. Camera returns to normal after a pre-determined amount of time. After which, you can emp it again and get the same result.
