Nice gun! Did it do damage?

I've gotten things like RW_Shield and other things like that, but they have no sprite with them and no picture that I have a weapon associated with them in the bottom bar.

I think it did damage, but I'm not quite sure about that or if it was spawning items considering I was trying to kill invisible monsters

Had it happen to me twice yesterday, once on Spacenoxx and I believe once on Grassynoll. Both happened in later waves and both were remedied by me reconnecting.

My shots dissapear and I can't see anything the monsters are shooting, but I can still damage and kill them.

I have experianced this. It seems to happen at first like a sink issue between the client side and the server side.

After experimenting, I can make shots hang or delay and then dissapear totally by using the rocket launcher and loading 3 rockets at a time in a burst or spiral many times in a row. I have yet to have my weapons dissapear but have had monsters, monsters shots and my own ammo in the air either slow down dramaticly or not show on the screen at all. The shots that dont show still kill monsters so I have not had a big problem with this, except when I get a tripple rocket going and I cant see a monster that is point blank with me.....tends to end badly...

I've spent the past two days playing my medic character and have experienced the disapearing weapons only once. Normally I'll have to reconnect to the server once or twice per map with my WM. The two major differences I notice between my characters are:
1. I have fewer weapons than my WM (usually 2 besides shield/assault)
2. I die less
Shots still tend to disapear, but come back quickly and never really affect the gameplay.

Earlier today, four people were playing on CTF-DuelingKeeps, (I think that was what it was). We all experienced a major lag spike, skipping game play, disappearing this and that. When it died down though, we all had the glitch happen. As far as I could tell, it was definitely lag related.

hate to resurrect such an old topic, but this issue still occurs on my server and it's NOT lag... this occurs MOSTLY after dying and coming back, either when returning on a new wave, or when being resurrected (I have a resurrection mod on my server)... however, before the resurrection mod, this was an issue (completely different server build)... this also used to occur on my friend SkY's server...

actually SkY's server was similar where you would spawn with your weapons but not be able to switch, or fire... the solution on his was to throw the weapon you were currently holding... this would allow you to switch to and use all weapons, then you could pick up the weapon you just threw...

SkY's server was about 3 to 5 years ago, so this issue has been around for a while... any resolution to this?
