When the three commands /bulletpush, /injuryknockback and /blastknockback got introduced, there was also hope that someday these commands wouldn't be necessary.

It's been a year since and I've had a close look at these settings again. One thing i'm noticing is that basically every server prefers hosting with /bulletpush off. Here's a couple of reasons:

1) Bulletpush is unpredictable. How much it pushes and in what direction might aswell be so precise that it feels completely random and unreliable to human players. So much impact and so much unpredictibility isn't fun in an competiive game.
2) Bulletpush is heavily impacted by latency. It's inherently not great to tie mechanical (dis)advantages to this metric.
3) Bulletpush on disables /injuryknockback completely. This is not intuitive that they don't work or how they work. Without bulletpush, the knockback from injuries is deterministic and gets far more simple to explain.
4) Bulletpush causes players to get moved instead of hit, sometimes moving into bullets they shouldn't be moved in, or moving away from them. So far, I've never heard people positive about this interaction.
5) So far there haven't been any counterarguments to keep /bulletpush on.

Both injuryknockback and blastknockback still have their uses, mainly for race gametypes or ground force, or disabling RF knockback in tests. Having certain knockback strength options makes more sense than /bulletpush which is mostly just invisible, complex but yet impactful. ]]> JJ2+ Issue Tracker FawFul http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20936 Bug Report Chatlogger missing in jj2 GOG mod add-on http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20935&goto=newpost Fri, 04 Sep 2026 09:46:21 GMT As title says. Running plus either through the file folder or through the launcher does not launch the game with a chatlogger. ]]> JJ2+ Issue Tracker FawFul http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20935 Bug Report 32-bit graphics are glitchy when used in gems for Coop/SP end of level screen http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20933&goto=newpost Sun, 23 Aug 2026 21:03:16 GMT Mayhem happens if you use jjCOLORMAP instead of jjPIXELMAP. For smaller graphics (totem.png) it shows the wrong image with artifacts, for larger graphics (spyromalfunction.png) it crashes with an access violation (EIP always 0x0047C7CF, but the address it reads from varies each time).
Minimal example:

Code:

void onLevelLoad() {

        jjCOLORMAP dummy("your_file_here.png");

        jjAnimSets[ANIM::PICKUPS].load();

        const uint animId = 35;

        jjANIMFRAME@ frame = jjAnimFrames[jjAnimations[jjAnimSets[ANIM::PICKUPS].firstAnim + animId].firstFrame]; // (ANIM::PICKUPS, animId, 0)

        dummy.save(frame);

}

Tested on JJ2+ 6.6g.

]]> JJ2+ Issue Tracker froducish http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20933 How do you prefer to race opponents? http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20932&goto=newpost Sun, 09 Aug 2026 22:53:22 GMT A specific follow-up to https://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20834 that sadly didn't get any response. This is to poll for the next JDC season and race event.

Since 6.2 plus made several enhancements to race, it could be a viable replacement of the race mutator. But there's one big difference in how race works between the two:

-Since 6.2 in /gamemode race, injury is off and your bullets knock around racing opponents (same as vanilla behavior)
-In race.mut, injury is on, you have infinite health (same as every past JDC race event behavior, except you are also able to take springs while blinking, which wasn't the case when it was hosted in treasure hunt in the first years)

I made this poll to ask the community how you prefer racing.

EDIT: Forgot to change the title. Woops. It should say "How should racing oppponents work" ]]> JJ2+ Issue Tracker FawFul http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20932 Anyway i can play the game in its original 320x240 resolution? http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20930&goto=newpost Sat, 08 Aug 2026 17:34:07 GMT Id really like to get to experience jack in its original resolution is there a mod that will allow me to do that? ]]> JJ2+ Issue Tracker Mr.Fearingt00n http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showthread.php?t=20930
