[[Image:Alt-F4.png|thumb|Alt-F4 is a competitive ground scheme where your worms are limited to only using weapons from the F-key row they are named after.]]<br />

{{ReplayBox|2020-05-22_20.10.15_Alt-F4_R3_NogardDerNaerok_ShyGuy.WAgame|Another rather exciting|round of Alt-F4 between the two}}<br />
<br />
[[Alt-F4]] is a highly strategic member of the F-key family of [[Schemes|schemes]], where worms are only allowed to use weapons that appear in the [[Weapons|weapon panel]] row that the worms are named after (F1, F5, F9, F12...) as well as, in the case of [[Alt-F4]], anything from the '''F8''' row, any utility from the '''Util.''' row, and [[Skip Go]]. Best of 3 matches are played on random island maps between six 150 HP worms a side, with turn order set to cycle between them randomly. After the 15 minute round timer runs out and [[Sudden Death|sudden death]] arrives, all worms are set to '''1 HP''', but water does not rise. Weapon powers in the scheme are set to the standard 3 stars, including the [[Ninja Rope]], giving it a single reshoot, but with rope knocking (and by extension [[Bungee]] knocking) disabled.<br />
<br />
Because the way in which individual rounds play out depends in large part on what worms (F-keys) appear on the battlefield, the scheme allows for an ever-evolving '''metagame''' to develop, even without any changes made to its scheme file. Through this mechanism, it is the players, via their choices, who in the long run decide which F-keys are expected to see more play because they just seem individually strong, which ones might only be niche inclusions intended to surprise opponents, which ones warrant going out of your way to kill off early, which ones could potentially be more dangerous in the hands of specific players, or as part of specific team compositions, or on specific maps and so on.<br />
<br />
== Rules ==<br />
<br />
*'''Each worm is only allowed to use weapons from the [[Weapons|weapon panel]] row it is named after''' + '''anything from the F8 row''' + '''any utility'''<br />
**[[Skip Go]] is also allowed to be used by any worm.<br />
**[[Surrender]] is only allowed to be used by any worm in 1v1 matches, where it ends the round.<br />
**If you accidentally end up using a weapon your worm is not allowed to use, the punishment for it is [[Skip Go|skipping go]] on your following turn, without moving or doing anything else with that worm.<br />
<br />
*'''Each player is only allowed one of the same F-key on their team'''<br />
**Although an interesting alternative way of playing allows two of the same F-key per side. Note however that you won't be able to call your two worms the same name, so doing something like F9 and F9* is required.<br />
<br />
The following "rules" are enforced by the scheme file itself, as of [[Updates_(Worms_Armageddon)|Worms Armageddon 3.8]]:<br />
<br />
*'''No [[Ninja Rope|rope]] knocking (includes [[Bungee]] knocks)'''<br />
<br />
*'''No [[Roofing|climbing on top of the indestructible border]] if playing on cavern maps'''<br />
<br />
*'''No [[Skipwalking|skipwalking]]'''<br />
<br />
*'''No [[Vertical_Longbow_and_Baseball_Bat|bypassing the Longbow and Baseball Bat angle restrictions]]'''<br />
<br />
*'''No using [[Bungee from Jet Pack]]'''<br />
<br />
<br />
== Strategy and Metagame ==<br />
<br />
On a fundamental level, offering a rough outline of what to expect from [[Alt-F4]] and some guidance on constructing your team, the F-keys appear to fall into a few categories that are distinct both in what they theoretically offer to a team composition, and in terms of how including them usually tends to play out in practice.<br />
<br />
'''Early game heavy hitters''' that are potentially very strong early, but prone to falling off in power when rounds drag on:<br />
*'''F7''' with unlimited [[Baseball Bat]], [[Blow Torch]] and [[Pneumatic Drill]]<br />
*'''F9''' with unlimited [[Flame Thrower]]<br />
*'''F11''' with 5x [[Old Woman]] and literally nothing else<br />
<br />
'''Consistent all-arounders''' that are generally good at all stages of the game, but do not obviously excel at anything:<br />
*'''F2''' with unlimited [[Grenade]] and 2x [[Battle Axe]]<br />
*'''F3''' with unlimited [[Shotgun]], [[Uzi]], [[Handgun]], [[Longbow]] and 1x [[Minigun]]<br />
*'''F5''' with unlimited [[Mine]], [[Mole Bomb]] and 1x [[Dynamite]]<br />
<br />
'''Late game strategies and finishers''' that allow you to intentionally aim to take rounds late:<br />
*'''F1''' with unlimited [[Bazooka]] and 2x [[Homing Missile]]<br />
*'''F10''' with unlimited [[Petrol Bomb]] and 2x [[Skunk]]<br />
<br />
'''Synergistic supports and oddballs''' that don't do much on their own, but can shine in specific lineups:<br />
*'''F4''' with unlimited [[Fire Punch]], [[Dragon Ball]], [[Prod]] and 2x [[Kamikaze]]<br />
*'''F6''' with 1x [[Air Strike]], 1x [[Napalm Strike]], 1x [[Mail Strike]], 1x [[Mine Strike]] and 1x [[Mole Squadron]]<br />
*'''F12''' with unlimited [[Worm Select]] and 1x [[Freeze]]<br />
<br />
Sometimes these categories end up overlapping slightly as well, depending on the details of the situation the worms find themselves in. But figuring out a team composition that is synergistic, not awkward in some crippling way and which simply works for you personally is by design a large part of becoming better at [[Alt-F4]]; experimentation, adaptability and experience thus all play an important role.<br />
<br />
=== Synergies and Anti-Synergies ===<br />
<br />
A purposefully nonexhaustive listing of suggestions for synergies that might be interesting to experiment with, and anti-synergies that should probably be avoided:<br />
<br />
*The '''F1''' and '''F10''' worms are both somewhat late game oriented. Bazookas are, from a distance, good against low health poisoned worms as well as at keeping Petrol Bomb fire alive. Petrol Bombs are themselves good at prolonging rounds and, via blocking, keeping poisoned worms stuck with little to do. Even when their synergy doesn't come together, they remain individually strong during 1 HP sudden death.<br />
<br />
*Worms like '''F4''', '''F5''', '''F7''', '''F9''', '''F10''' and '''F11''' who can inflict heavy damage against (or score outright full HP kills on) enemies in specific positions and arrangements obviously benefit greatly from having movement utilities ('''F8''' and '''Util.''' rows) at their disposal. Too many of these worms going for too many early power moves can leave you stranded later on, however.<br />
<br />
*As a worm that does nothing by itself, '''F12''' is a synergy machine, although likely at its strongest coupled with aggressive early game worms like '''F7''', '''F9''' and '''F11'''. '''F4''' with its Kamikaze and '''F5''' with the Dynamite are strong contenders as well.<br />
<br />
*When playing 2v2 or following an alternate ruleset that allows more than at most one of the same F-key per player, beware of using two of worms like '''F3''', '''F5''', '''F6''' and '''F11''', who all come with a very limited supply of their best (or all) weapons. Because inventories are shared, the anti-synergy of having more than one of these may end up hindering you.<br />
<br />
=== Potential Counters ===<br />
<br />
*Late game, defensively oriented compositions running an '''F10''' worm should be pretty good against aggressive ones that try to finish rounds early, or risk their '''F12''' worm feeling increasingly useless as it watches the other F-keys slowly die to poison ticks, while itself getting ignored and intentionally left for last, at which point it becomes almost entirely useless and a waste of 150 HP. This does need further testing, though.<br />
<br />
=== Tips and Tricks ===<br />
<br />
*The scheme comes with a generous hotseat timer of 10 seconds. Don't forget to make use of it to plan out your turns in advance!<br />
<br />
*If you're ever unsure which F-key worm you're currently controlling, tap the delete key four times; that should bring its name tag back down from the sky. Note though that this doesn't work while walking, and usually doesn't help during hotseat.<br />
<br />
*Don't forget that Parachute and Bungee come in infinite supply and can be used by any worm. Not only does this significantly increase the offensive range of all F-keys, it can also mean the difference between having to use a limited movement utility or being able to conserve it for later. In the late game, combined with strong wind, securing high ground lets you cover large portions of the map with Parachute alone.<br />
<br />
*Your Uzi and Minigun can turn into a Baseball Bat... sometimes. Don't believe me? Watch [https://kingbird.myphotos.cc/2020-05-20%2006.24.12%20%7B9%20-%20Minigun%20%40%2013m18s%7D%202020-05-19%2004.03.51%20%5BAlt-F4%5D%20%5BR2%5D%20%40NogardDerNaerok%2C%20ShyGuy.WAgame this tool-assisted demonstration] at 13:18.<br />
<br />
*Mines can be jumped against immediately after being placed, pushing them a significant distance away, especially from a height, onto unsuspecting worms below. It requires some dexterity, a sense of timing, and is often at least somewhat risky. But it's totally a thing that works out majestically sometimes.<br />
<br />
*There's a pattern to how the random turn order works in this game. Figure it out or look it up to unlock the full potential of your F12 worm.<br />

'''WormKit''' was an extension framework for [[Worms Armageddon]]. The distribution contained a module loader (whose only purpose is to load WormKit modules), and a set of default modules, each providing specific functionality.<br />
<br />
By convention, a WormKit module is a DLL file, the filename of which begins with the prefix "wk". There is no API or further integration, however some DLLs can provide common functionality for other modules to share (such as wkPackets).<br />
<br />
Starting with W:A version 3.7.0.0, Wormkit has been integrated in to the game which allows you to download and install modules without having to install Wormkit. if you still want to download an old copy of Wormkit for old versions of the game than click [http://worms.thecybershadow.net/wormkit/wormkit.zip here].<br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
WormKit was first released on April 5, 2006. Since its release, no significant changes or additions were made to the framework itself. Although there was some work on additional default modules, including an anti-cheating system (wkWormisign) and a Fiddler-like scripted game engine add-on ([[wkMagic]]), none reached a development phase mature enough to be released, and thus the ideas were dropped.<br />
<br />
In July 2011, [[WormKitDS]] was released. WormKitDS is an alternative module loader which removes the need of a launcher program. WormKitDS made managing WormKit-requiring replays easier, and worked under Linux and for the Steam edition of the game, whereas the original WormKit did not.<br />
<br />
In December 2012, W:A 3.7.0.0 was released, with the addition of an option to load WormKit modules on startup. The new option made the loaders mostly obsolete.<br />
<br />
In February 2013, the original WormKit homepage (previously located at http://worms.thecybershadow.net/wormkit/) was shut down and turned into a redirect to this page. The default modules have been made available as separate downloads. The old (obsolete) distribution can still be downloaded [http://worms.thecybershadow.net/wormkit/wormkit.zip here].<br />

'''WormKit''' was an extension framework for [[Worms Armageddon]]. The distribution contained a module loader (whose only purpose is to load WormKit modules), and a set of default modules, each providing specific functionality.<br />
<br />
By convention, a WormKit module is a DLL file, the filename of which begins with the prefix "wk". There is no API or further integration, however some DLLs can provide common functionality for other modules to share (such as wkPackets).<br />
<br />
Starting with W:A version 3.7.0.0, Wormkit has been integrated in to the game which allows you to download and install modules without having to install Wormkit. if you still want to download an old copy of Wormkit for old versions of the game than click here [http://worms.thecybershadow.net/wormkit/wormkit.zip here].<br />

<div>{{ParentArticle|[[Tricks and glitches (Second generation)]]}}<br />
Contrary to popular belief, the [[Teleport]] ''does'' have retreat time during normal gameplay - but only for a fiftieth of a second (a single frame). This is enough time to turn around, and/or initiate a jump. This also affects "teleporting in" when manual placement is on.<br />
<br />
This can be useful for teleporting near a mine to trigger it, and then jumping away, or collecting a crate and then jumping to collect another crate.<br />
<br />
{{ReplayBox2|Teleportjump.WAgame|A demonstration of teleport jumps.<br />
|screenshot=Teleportjump.gif|screensize=170|length=00:00:40}}<br />
<br />
You can perform the following types of jumps:<br />
* forward jump - hold or tap '''Return'''<br />
* vertical jump - hold or tap '''Backspace'''<br />
* backjump - hold or tap '''Return+Backspace'''<br />
<br />
To perform a teleport jump, you must make sure the worm does not fall after teleport. Click on the land itself and the teleport will redirect to directly on the surface, then press a jump key (e.g. Return, see above) during the 0.02 second retreat time to initiate the jump. Holding a jump key (or keys) throughout will also ensure a teleport jump, but only when you place your worm at the start of the round (with manual placement on).<br />
<br />
You can also make your worm turn around right after the teleport; to do this, hold down the left/right arrow key while teleporting/placing your worm; holding it down works with manual placement as well. You can combine this with any of the 3 jumps to manipulate the direction of the jump.</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Teleport_jump&diff=25417Teleport jump2019-10-16T12:40:05Z<p>Franpa: I feel like that should be it's own paragraph. It's arguably a separate trick (which can be combined with the jumping) and splitting it out like this should make it easier to identify it as such.</p>

<br />
This program is very, very, very nice! Good work Etho! I would like to know if the next version of it is comming soon. I think that maybe in the future, if possible, should be added to the program another things like:<br />
<br />
# Set the number of the ammo that a crate contains for each weapon.<br />
# Set the power of Low Gravity (higher/smaller jumps).<br />
# Set the power and the crate probability of the super weapons. (But maybe this could break rubberworm schemes)<br />
<br />
And another ideas that if i remember i will put here. I know that is not simple to do my ideas to the next version, but maybe one of them is possible. Thanks to this program, it's wonderful! [[User:FoxHound|FoxHound]] 17:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)<br />
:You are asking for the impossible, the scheme format which SchemeEddy edits does not control any of these settings. Try asking the [[ProjectX]] guys instead. --[[User:CyberShadow|Vladimir]] 17:42, 3 June 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Well, i didn't know about it, i played PX one time. it is very nice, but it is too complex (at least for creating schemes) and requires a PX for each player. Sorry my ignorance, i'm not a programer. But it would be very nice if it could be possible =).

<div>==Better name: the "edge-of-the-universe" glitch==<br />
The name "Super batty knock" and "Super Worm" make no sense to me. Personally I would call this the "edge-of-the-universe" glitch since it only happens when a super sheep pass through it. --[[User:Explorer09|Explorer09]] 09:25, 13 February 2010 (UTC)<br />

==I think it's quicker to do with Test Stuff v3==<br />
You can just bounce back and forth insanely fast and lob a 5 second grenade with enough force to reach the same limitation resulting in a very similar explosion that covers the whole map. Of course Test Stuff v3 does have a rather major negative to it, you can fling your worm out of bounds leading the game/round to *end* when the game cycles to that worms turn again (Presumably this is a crash protection measure?).</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Troubleshooting_FAQ&diff=13032Troubleshooting FAQ2009-12-11T10:03:17Z<p>Franpa: /* WA loses keyboard/mouse input focus when maximizing from a minimized state */</p>

<br />
== Installing WA ==<br />
==== I can't install Worms Armageddon. The auto-run installation screen disappears, and nothing else will work. ====<br />
Disabling DMA (Direct Memory Access) has been known to solve this. To disable DMA,<br />
# Start Menu &rarr; Control Panel &rarr; System<br />
# Click the Hardware tab, then click Device Manager<br />
# Expand the System Devices sublist<br />
# Double-click "Direct memory access controller"<br />
# Select "disable" from the Device Usage drop-down list<br />
<br />
==== The installation freezes at 100%, and the game fails to install when I quit it. ====<br />
Keep waiting, the installation will eventually complete after a few minutes. Cause of this problem is unknown.<br />
<br />
==== I am encountering other problems with installing the game ====<br />
[[User:madewokherd|madewokherd]] has written an alternative [[Automatic Installer]] for W:A. It allows installing W:A on 64-bit Windows operating systems, among others.<br />
<br />
== Patching/updating WA ==<br />
==== When installing the 3.0 patch, I get the error "Failed to find installation path" ====<br />
This is caused by missing or incorrect Registry entries created by the WA installer. This can be solved by reinstalling, or editing the registry entries as follows:<br />
# Start menu &rarr; Run &rarr; regedit<br />
# Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon\"<br />
# Double-click the PATH string and make sure the directory location is correct<br />
<br />
==== I get a "Bad Integrity" error when trying to run the Patch or Update file ====<br />
The file is corrupted. Try deleting it and downloading it again.<br />
<br />
== Starting WA ==<br />
==== "C:\Windows\System32\Autoexec.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications..." ====<br />
<br />
This file has a nasty habit of corrupting itself, so Microsoft supplied a backup copy for such circumstances. Simply copy the "Autoexec.nt" file from '''"C:\Windows\Repair"''' to '''"C:\Windows\System32"'''. If your Windows is installed in a different location, substitute C:\Windows with that location.<br />
<br />
If this doesn't work, see the [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324767/ Q324767 article] from Microsoft support.<br />
<br />
==== I get a "No CD" Error ====<br />
You probably tried to patch WA when it did not need patching. Uninstall the game and try installing only the update.<br />
<br />
==== "ltkrn10n.dll was not found" ====<br />
You tried installing an outdated Beta patch on top of an unpatched version of the game. Download and install the [http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=supp&area=upda&file=15 latest Beta update].<br />
<br />
==== When trying to run the game, the Sold Out installation setup sometimes insists that I install the update, even when I have already done so ====<br />
Ignore the message.<br />
<br />
==== "The WA.exe file expects a newer version of Windows. Upgrade your Windows version" ====<br />
Windows 98/ME compatibility has been accidentally broken in 3.6.29.0. This will be fixed in the next update. For now, downgrade to [[Beta updates|3.6.28.0]].<br />
<br />
==== "Graphics subsystem error - Unable to set desired video mode" ====<br />
Your video card or video drivers do not support the video mode required by W:A. If you are using Windows Vista on a notebook computer with an Intel video chipset, this is a known problem - Intel has chosen to no longer support old games such as Worms Armageddon for their Vista drivers. The only work-around is to [[Emulating Worms Armageddon|emulate W:A]]. Otherwise, try updating your drivers.<br />
<br />
==== I get a black screen when I try to run WA, then it crashes to desktop or I have to restart the computer ====<br />
Disabling the introduction screens has been known to solve this. To do this, right-click the WA shortcut icon, select properties, and in the "Target" text box, type "'''/nointro'''" at the end of the path.<br />
<br />
This must be outside of the quotation marks for it to work. For example,<br />
<br />
"C:\Worms Armageddon\wa.exe" /nointro<br />
<br />
== Front-end problems ==<br />
==== I can't see the bottom or right side of the screen in the front end ====<br />
Your font sizes are set to a large value. W:A does not support non-standard font sizes. Open the '''Display Properties''' Control Panel applet, click '''Advanced...''' on the '''Settings''' tab and set font sizes to '''Normal size (96 DPI)'''.<br />
<br />
==== The frontend and menu system suffers flickiness, lacks background sound, messed up animations, or unusually slow/fast animations ====<br />
Locate your WA directory and open the '''Tweak''' folder, then double-click the file '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_On.reg"'''. If this doesn't solve the problem, do the same with '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_Off.reg"'''. If this still doesn't work, do the same with '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_AntiFlicker.reg"'''. If none of these work, your video card is too modern. These problems will be fixed in a future update. [http://forum.team17.com/showthread.php?t=24821 See this] thread for more details.<br />
<br />
==== The game uses all CPU in the front-end (menus) ====<br />
See the solution in the previous question. Note that it might not be possible to achieve good visuals and low CPU usage at the same time.<br />
<br />
==== When returning from a game, I get a black screen with some white areas ====<br />
This is a problem with DirectX for which a workaround has not yet been found. For some reason, the colour palette is set to two colours (black and white). To restore the colour palette, minimize by clicking at the bottom of the screen or pressing Shift+Escape, then restore the game.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes or minimizes when I try to edit the map, or edit or create a team ====<br />
This is caused by having a program with an "Always On Top" feature. MSN Messenger is a common culprit. Try closing other programs, or finding this setting and disabling it.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I try to edit a map ====<br />
This problem is considered to be caused by a change in the behavior of graphic drivers and/or DirectX. The next Beta update will include a workaround. In the meantime, try updating your video drivers.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I try to edit or create a team on Windows Vista ====<br />
If you enabled any compatibility options for W:A, disable them. The crash is caused by [http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx?siteid=1&postid=3967411 a problem in Windows Vista's compatibility layer].<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I minimize and then try to maximize ====<br />
There are some known problems with minimization in the front-end - such as if a message box appears while the game is minimized. Until those are fixed, there will inevitably be cases which cause W:A to crash while minimized or being restored.<br />
<br />
==== WA loses keyboard/mouse input focus when maximizing from a minimized state ====<br />
Instead of clicking on the game on the Taskbar, try right click it and choose "Close". This should maximize the game with keyboard and mouse input working again. Weird, I know. (tested/confirmed for Windows 7 x64)<br />
<br />
==== "ERROR: Could Not open/create team File" when editing teams ====<br />
This error message is displayed when W:A can't write to the directory you installed it to. It usually happens when you change the default installation path and install W:A under "Program files". On Windows Vista, this will result in W:A not being able to write to its folder. To resolve the situation you can do one of the following:<br />
* reinstall the game to a directory where non-administrators have write access (e.g under your user profile folder - the default installation path should work as well)<br />
* run the game as administrator (you will have to do it every time; you can enforce this in the compatibility options)<br />
* edit the directory's permissions to allow non-administrator users to write to it (for advanced users).<br />
<br />
==== It is not possible to generate or load maps ====<br />
This can happen when W:A can't write to the directory you installed it to. See the answer to the previous question.<br />
<br />
== In-game problems ==<br />
==== Right-clicking in-game fails to open the weapons menu ====<br />
The program StrokeIt can be responsible for this. Either disable the program when playing, or find the program option that allows you to prevent it from interfering when WA is running.<br />
<br />
==== In-game plays extremely slow on Windows Vista ====<br />
If you're using an nVidia graphics card, updating your drivers has been known to fix this issue. <br />
<br />
==== The water and sky are black ====<br />
Like with the above problem - if you're using an nVidia graphics card on Windows Vista, updating to the latest driver version has been known to fix this issue.<br />
<br />
==== Players quit with a "desynchronization error" ====<br />
Desynchronization errors are usually caused by a bug in the game. Search the [[Team17 forums]] if the problem is known. If it isn't, please post the replays of that game '''from all players''' (or at least the host's and the player that desynchronized).<br />
<br />
==== The game colours get all messed up ====<br />
<br />
This happens when another application is stealing W:A's palette. W:A logs such occurrences to the file "palette.log" in your W:A folder. If you can, try closing the programs listed there. <br />
<br />
Often it's a component of Windows itself that's stealing W:A's palette (usually '''csrss.exe'''). If you are using Windows Vista/7, having any Windows Explorer folder open while you play the game has been known to fix it. If this doesn't work, try terminating the '''explorer.exe''' process using Task Manager before starting W:A. (Don't worry if the taskbar and desktop icons disappear, that's to be expected.) You can later start it back from Task Manager (which you can open by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Delete or Ctrl+Shift+Esc), by going to '''File''' &rarr; '''Run...'''.<br />
<br />
You could also try an experimental WormKit module called [http://forum.team17.com/showthread.php?t=38762 wkColorFix], which ''suspends'' explorer.exe while the game is running (and not minimized).<br />
<br />
Another known work-around is to disable the '''Indexing Service''' and/or '''Automatic Updates''' services (Control Panel &rarr; Administrative Tools &rarr; Services).<br />
<br />
==== The sound stutters (or plays unsmoothly) in-game ====<br />
This has been known to happen with a slow/defective CD drive or a damaged CD. Try [[Running WA without the CD|creating a CD image]] of your W:A CD.<br />
<br />
==== The game doesn't react to some of the keys I press ====<br />
Some keyboard have limits on how many and which buttons may be pressed simultaneously. If you find that the game does not recognize some key presses when you hold down some buttons, you may need to change your keyboard or use a key remapper. See [http://forum.team17.com/showthread.php?t=33321 this thread on the Team17 forums] for details.<br />
<br />
==== The game freezes while playing online ====<br />
This problem is caused by the high-resolution timer on your computer stepping backwards. This throws W:A into an infinite loop, as it tries to make up for aeons of passed time. To work around this problem, run the '''Tweaks\TimerWorkaround_On.reg''' registry script.<br />
<br />
==== The weapon panel moves randomly in either direction ====<br />
This problem has the same underlying cause as the one above - the high-resolution timer on your computer has stepped backwards. To work around this problem, run the '''Tweaks\TimerWorkaround_On.reg''' registry script.<br />
<br />
== WormNET ==<br />
==== I have been banned for no reason! ====<br />
If you get a message that you're banned when connecting, check the green text in the message log at the bottom. This usually happens when you, someone on your network or someone who had your IP address previously had a virus or open proxy on their computer. For that reason, your IP was added to a [[w:DNSBL|blacklist]]. This is done to prevent flooders, spammers and griefers from connecting to WormNET using public proxies and vulnerable/infected computers and causing trouble. <br />
<br />
To remove your IP from the blacklists, visit [http://dronebl.org/ DroneBL] and [http://rbl.efnetrbl.org/ EFnet RBL], submit your IP address (it should be filled in automatically) and, if you're listed, send a removal request. You should also scan your computer for viruses and malware, otherwise you'll be blacklisted and banned again. Once you removed yourself, just wait for your WormNET ban to expire (this currently takes 12 hours), and you should be able to connect again.<br />
<br />
==== I see the error "Unable to detect IPX protocol" when clicking "Test network" ====<br />
Ignore this error. [[w:IPX|IPX]] is an outdated network protocol, obsoleted by TCP/IP.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, nothing happens ====<br />
PeerGuardian can cause this by blocking the WormNET IP address. Consider reconfiguring or disabling PeerGuardian.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, the game freezes up (possibly with messed up colours) ====<br />
ZoneAlarm (and possibly other firewalls) can cause this by producing a pop-up in the background when it detects your computer trying to connect. Configure ZoneAlarm so that it already gives Worms Armageddon access to the Internet. While you're there, you'll also want to allow it to act as a server, otherwise you will receive the same or similar problems when you try to host (see below).<br />
<br />
==== When I join WormNET, the content of the channel list, player list and the message of the day box never loads ====<br />
Restarting the game or your computer has been known to fix this.<br />
<br />
==== No one can join my games ====<br />
Consult the [[Hosting Guide]].<br />
<br />
==== I can't join my friend's game ====<br />
Your friend may need to do some network set-up first - see the previous question.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to host a game, the game freezes up ====<br />
Certain Norton security products (and possibly other firewalls) can cause this by producing a pop-up in the background when it detects your computer trying to open a port. Configure your firewall/antivirus product to allow unrestricted access to W:A.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to join games, I keep getting a "Checksum 15" error ====<br />
This occurs when the game has been improperly updated. Follow the installation tutorial carefully.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to team in, nothing happens ====<br />
This problem can be caused by a misconfigured device on your network. Your computer is trying to send the team as a packet larger than the [[w:maximum transmission unit|maximum transmission unit]] of a network node between you and the game's host. Normally when this happens, the said node will send back an [[w:Internet Control Message Protocol|ICMP]] packet, and your computer (or another routing device) will reconfigure to fragment the data into smaller segments (see [[w:Path MTU discovery|Path MTU discovery]]). However, if you are using a firewall or router configured to block ICMP messages, auto-reconfiguration will fail, and the packet will be silently dropped, creating a "black hole connection".<br />
<br />
To work around this problem, you can:<br />
* contact your ISP or network administrator<br />
* reconfigure your router or firewall to stop blocking ICMP "Fragmentation Needed" (Type 3, Code 4) messages<br />
* [http://www.google.com/search?q=set+MTU+windows manually set the MTU of your operating system to a lower value] (might lower network performance)<br />
* use a VPN service such as [http://www.hotspotshield.com/ Hotspot Shield] (not recommended)<br />
<br />
== Miscellaneous ==<br />
==== Replay (.WAgame) files are not associated with W:A ====<br />
Worms Armageddon creates .WAgame associations when you start W:A. However, if you run W:A from a limited user account, it will not be able to do so. To resolve the issue, run W:A once with administrative privileges (in Windows Vista: right-click on the shortcut, "Run as Administrator").<br />
<br />
==== An alternative solution to many problems ====<br />
Many hardware/software/OS incompatibility problems can be solved by [[Emulating Worms Armageddon]], if you don't mind a performance trade-off.<br />
<br />
==== I downloaded Worms Armageddon from the Internet without paying. Can you help me? ====<br />

<br />
== Installing WA ==<br />
==== I can't install Worms Armageddon. The auto-run installation screen disappears, and nothing else will work. ====<br />
Disabling DMA (Direct Memory Access) has been known to solve this. To disable DMA,<br />
# Start Menu &rarr; Control Panel &rarr; System<br />
# Click the Hardware tab, then click Device Manager<br />
# Expand the System Devices sublist<br />
# Double-click "Direct memory access controller"<br />
# Select "disable" from the Device Usage drop-down list<br />
<br />
==== The installation freezes at 100%, and the game fails to install when I quit it. ====<br />
Keep waiting, the installation will eventually complete after a few minutes. Cause of this problem is unknown.<br />
<br />
==== I am encountering other problems with installing the game ====<br />
[[User:madewokherd|madewokherd]] has written an alternative [[Automatic Installer]] for W:A. It allows installing W:A on 64-bit Windows operating systems, among others.<br />
<br />
== Patching/updating WA ==<br />
==== When installing the 3.0 patch, I get the error "Failed to find installation path" ====<br />
This is caused by missing or incorrect Registry entries created by the WA installer. This can be solved by reinstalling, or editing the registry entries as follows:<br />
# Start menu &rarr; Run &rarr; regedit<br />
# Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon\"<br />
# Double-click the PATH string and make sure the directory location is correct<br />
<br />
==== I get a "Bad Integrity" error when trying to run the Patch or Update file ====<br />
The file is corrupted. Try deleting it and downloading it again.<br />
<br />
== Starting WA ==<br />
==== "C:\Windows\System32\Autoexec.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications..." ====<br />
<br />
This file has a nasty habit of corrupting itself, so Microsoft supplied a backup copy for such circumstances. Simply copy the "Autoexec.nt" file from '''"C:\Windows\Repair"''' to '''"C:\Windows\System32"'''. If your Windows is installed in a different location, substitute C:\Windows with that location.<br />
<br />
If this doesn't work, see the [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324767/ Q324767 article] from Microsoft support.<br />
<br />
==== I get a "No CD" Error ====<br />
You probably tried to patch WA when it did not need patching. Uninstall the game and try installing only the update.<br />
<br />
==== "ltkrn10n.dll was not found" ====<br />
You tried installing an outdated Beta patch on top of an unpatched version of the game. Download and install the [http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=supp&area=upda&file=15 latest Beta update].<br />
<br />
==== When trying to run the game, the Sold Out installation setup sometimes insists that I install the update, even when I have already done so ====<br />
Ignore the message.<br />
<br />
==== "The WA.exe file expects a newer version of Windows. Upgrade your Windows version" ====<br />
Windows 98/ME compatibility has been accidentally broken in 3.6.29.0. This will be fixed in the next update. For now, downgrade to [[Beta updates|3.6.28.0]].<br />
<br />
==== "Graphics subsystem error - Unable to set desired video mode" ====<br />
Your video card or video drivers do not support the video mode required by W:A. If you are using Windows Vista on a notebook computer with an Intel video chipset, this is a known problem - Intel has chosen to no longer support old games such as Worms Armageddon for their Vista drivers. The only work-around is to [[Emulating Worms Armageddon|emulate W:A]]. Otherwise, try updating your drivers.<br />
<br />
==== I get a black screen when I try to run WA, then it crashes to desktop or I have to restart the computer ====<br />
Disabling the introduction screens has been known to solve this. To do this, right-click the WA shortcut icon, select properties, and in the "Target" text box, type "'''/nointro'''" at the end of the path.<br />
<br />
This must be outside of the quotation marks for it to work. For example,<br />
<br />
"C:\Worms Armageddon\wa.exe" /nointro<br />
<br />
== Front-end problems ==<br />
==== I can't see the bottom or right side of the screen in the front end ====<br />
Your font sizes are set to a large value. W:A does not support non-standard font sizes. Open the '''Display Properties''' Control Panel applet, click '''Advanced...''' on the '''Settings''' tab and set font sizes to '''Normal size (96 DPI)'''.<br />
<br />
==== The frontend and menu system suffers flickiness, lacks background sound, messed up animations, or unusually slow/fast animations ====<br />
Locate your WA directory and open the '''Tweak''' folder, then double-click the file '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_On.reg"'''. If this doesn't solve the problem, do the same with '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_Off.reg"'''. If this still doesn't work, do the same with '''"SlowFrontEndWorkAround_AntiFlicker.reg"'''. If none of these work, your video card is too modern. These problems will be fixed in a future update. [http://forum.team17.com/showthread.php?t=24821 See this] thread for more details.<br />
<br />
==== The game uses all CPU in the front-end (menus) ====<br />
See the solution in the previous question. Note that it might not be possible to achieve good visuals and low CPU usage at the same time.<br />
<br />
==== When returning from a game, I get a black screen with some white areas ====<br />
This is a problem with DirectX for which a workaround has not yet been found. For some reason, the colour palette is set to two colours (black and white). To restore the colour palette, minimize by clicking at the bottom of the screen or pressing Shift+Escape, then restore the game.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes or minimizes when I try to edit the map, or edit or create a team ====<br />
This is caused by having a program with an "Always On Top" feature. MSN Messenger is a common culprit. Try closing other programs, or finding this setting and disabling it.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I try to edit a map ====<br />
This problem is considered to be caused by a change in the behavior of graphic drivers and/or DirectX. The next Beta update will include a workaround. In the meantime, try updating your video drivers.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I try to edit or create a team on Windows Vista ====<br />
If you enabled any compatibility options for W:A, disable them. The crash is caused by [http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx?siteid=1&postid=3967411 a problem in Windows Vista's compatibility layer].<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I minimise and then try to maximise ====<br />
There are some known problems with minimisation in the front-end - such as if a message box appears while the game is minimised. Until those are fixed, there will inevitably be cases which cause W:A to crash while minimised or being restored.<br />
<br />
==== "ERROR: Could Not open/create team File" when editing teams ====<br />
This error message is displayed when W:A can't write to the directory you installed it to. It usually happens when you change the default installation path and install W:A under "Program files". On Windows Vista, this will result in W:A not being able to write to its folder. To resolve the situation you can do one of the following:<br />
* reinstall the game to a directory where non-administrators have write access (e.g under your user profile folder - the default installation path should work as well)<br />
* run the game as administrator (you will have to do it every time; you can enforce this in the compatibility options)<br />

<br />
==== The water and sky are black ====<br />
Like with the above problem - if you're using an nVidia graphics card on Windows Vista, updating to the latest driver version has been known to fix this issue.<br />
<br />

<br />
Another known work-around is to disable the '''Indexing Service''' and/or '''Automatic Updates''' services (Control Panel &rarr; Administrative Tools &rarr; Services).<br />
<br />
==== The sound stutters (or plays unsmoothly) in-game ====<br />
This has been known to happen with a slow/defective CD drive or a damaged CD. Try [[Running WA without the CD|creating a CD image]] of your W:A CD.<br />
<br />
==== The game doesn't react to some of the keys I press ====<br />
Some keyboard have limits on how many and which buttons may be pressed simultaneously.

This problem has the same underlying cause as the one above - the high-resolution timer on your computer has stepped backwards. To work around this problem, run the '''Tweaks\TimerWorkaround_On.reg''' registry script.<br />
<br />
== WormNET ==<br />
==== I have been banned for no reason! ====<br />
If you get a message that you're banned when connecting, check the green text in the message log at the bottom. This usually happens when you, someone on your network or someone who had your IP address previously had a virus or open proxy on their computer. For that reason, your IP was added to a [[w:DNSBL|blacklist]]. This is done to prevent flooders, spammers and griefers from connecting to WormNET using public proxies and vulnerable/infected computers and causing trouble. <br />
<br />
To remove your IP from the blacklists, visit [http://dronebl.org/ DroneBL] and [http://rbl.efnetrbl.org/ EFnet RBL], submit your IP address (it should be filled in automatically) and, if you're listed, send a removal request. You should also scan your computer for viruses and malware, otherwise you'll be blacklisted and banned again. Once you removed yourself, just wait for your WormNET ban to expire (this currently takes 12 hours), and you should be able to connect again.<br />
<br />
==== I see the error "Unable to detect IPX protocol" when clicking "Test network" ====<br />
Ignore this error. [[w:IPX|IPX]] is an outdated network protocol, obsoleted by TCP/IP.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, nothing happens ====<br />
PeerGuardian can cause this by blocking the WormNET IP address. Consider reconfiguring or disabling PeerGuardian.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, the game freezes up (possibly with messed up colours) ====<br />
ZoneAlarm (and possibly other firewalls) can cause this by producing a pop-up in the background when it detects your computer trying to connect. Configure ZoneAlarm so that it already gives Worms Armageddon access to the Internet. While you're there, you'll also want to allow it to act as a server, otherwise you will receive the same or similar problems when you try to host (see below).<br />
<br />
==== When I join WormNET, the content of the channel list, player list and the message of the day box never loads ====<br />
Restarting the game or your computer has been known to fix this.<br />
<br />
==== No one can join my games ====<br />
Consult the [[Hosting Guide]].<br />
<br />
==== I can't join my friend's game ====<br />
Your friend may need to do some network set-up first - see the previous question.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to host a game, the game freezes up ====<br />
Certain Norton security products (and possibly other firewalls) can cause this by producing a pop-up in the background when it detects your computer trying to open a port. Configure your firewall/antivirus product to allow unrestricted access to W:A.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to join games, I keep getting a "Checksum 15" error ====<br />
This occurs when the game has been improperly updated. Follow the installation tutorial carefully.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to team in, nothing happens ====<br />
This problem can be caused by a misconfigured device on your network. Your computer is trying to send the team as a packet larger than the [[w:maximum transmission unit|maximum transmission unit]] of a network node between you and the game's host. Normally when this happens, the said node will send back an [[w:Internet Control Message Protocol|ICMP]] packet, and your computer (or another routing device) will reconfigure to fragment the data into smaller segments (see [[w:Path MTU discovery|Path MTU discovery]]). However, if you are using a firewall or router configured to block ICMP messages, auto-reconfiguration will fail, and the packet will be silently dropped, creating a "black hole connection".<br />
<br />
To work around this problem, you can:<br />
* contact your ISP or network administrator<br />
* reconfigure your router or firewall to stop blocking ICMP "Fragmentation Needed" (Type 3, Code 4) messages<br />
* [http://www.google.com/search?q=set+MTU+windows manually set the MTU of your operating system to a lower value] (might lower network performance)<br />
* use a VPN service such as [http://www.hotspotshield.com/ Hotspot Shield] (not recommended)<br />
<br />
== Miscellaneous ==<br />
==== Replay (.WAgame) files are not associated with W:A ====<br />
Worms Armageddon creates .WAgame associations when you start W:A. However, if you run W:A from a limited user account, it will not be able to do so. To resolve the issue, run W:A once with administrative privileges (in Windows Vista: right-click on the shortcut, "Run as Administrator").<br />
<br />
==== An alternative solution to many problems ====<br />
Many hardware/software/OS incompatibility problems can be solved by [[Emulating Worms Armageddon]], if you don't mind a performance trade-off.<br />
<br />
==== I downloaded Worms Armageddon from the Internet without paying. Can you help me? ====<br />

The Worm Pot is one of the new features in [[Worms World Party]], which allows the player to select up to 3 modes of play. It's supposed to be a slot machine, where each reel can have a special game mode. Akin to the Cheats in [[Worms Armageddon]].<br />
<br />
Rather curiously, despite the fact that WWP's development began solely to produce an online-enabled ''Worms'' game for the Dreamcast, the Dreamcast version of WWP omits the Worm Pot entirely.<br />

The [[Girder]] placement glitch is when a girder is placed anywhere, with complete disregard to terrain, worms, and objects that would normally be in the way. Any worm or object that the girder is placed on will fall through the map until it reaches an open area beneath it or falls into the water. <br />
<br />
== How To Perform The Glitch ==<br />
=== Method 1 ===<br />
To perform the glitch, select a target using Homing Missile or Homing Pigeon (but do not fire). Then, select the weapon before girder. Then you need to precisely hit F7 and Space at the same time. (If you are on a Jet Pack, Ninja Rope, Bungee, or Parachute, hit F7 and Enter instead of F7 and Space.)<br />
<br />
=== Method 2===<br />
Another method to do it is to choose the weapon before the girder, then jump. While in the air, press F7 and click where you want before you land. Once you land, press spacebar to place it. (prior to pressing spacebar to place it, you can walk and jump around the map like normal)<br />
<br />
This is the only method which works for Worms2, and girders can only be placed where your worm was standing.<br />
If you use this method while falling from a ninja rope, you can nudge enemy worms into the place selected for a girder prior to pressing spacebar, pushing them through the terrain. The same is also possible for your worm while on the rope, if you press enter. You can then rope through the landmass the girder will push you into.<br />
<br />
== Affected games ==<br />
This glitch is present in [[Worms World Party]] and [[Worms 2]], and has been fixed in the 3.6.19.7 [[Beta updates (Worms Armageddon)|W:A Beta update]] (after a partially failed attempt at fixing it in 3.5 Beta 1).</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Teleport_jump&diff=9482Teleport jump2009-02-26T03:23:20Z<p>Franpa: </p>

Contrary to popular belief, the teleport ''does'' have retreat time during normal gameplay - but only for a fiftieth of a second (a single frame). This is enough time to turn around, and/or initiate a jump. This also affects "teleporting in" when manual placement is on.<br />
<br />
This can be useful for teleporting near a mine to trigger it, and then jumping away, or collecting a crate and then jumping to collect another crate.<br />
<br />
You can perform the following types of jumps:<br />
* forward jump - hold or tap '''Return'''<br />
* vertical jump - hold or tap '''Backspace'''<br />
* backjump - hold or tap '''Return+Backspace'''<br />
<br />
To perform a teleport jump, you must make sure the worm does not fall after teleport. Click on the land itself and the teleport will redirect to directly on the surface, then press a jump key (e.g. Return, see above) during the 0.02 second retreat time to initiate the jump. Holding a jump key (or keys) throughout will also ensure a teleport jump, but only when you place your worm at the start of the round (with manual placement on). You can also make your worm turn around right after the teleport; to do this, hold down the left/right arrow key while teleporting/placing your worm; holding it down works with manual placement as well. You can combine this with jumps to specify the direction of the jump.</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Shopper&diff=9481Shopper2009-02-26T03:20:39Z<p>Franpa: /* The rules */</p>

<br />
'''Shopper''', also known as '''shoppa''', is one of the oldest fan made schemes of Worms Armageddon, in which the goal is to use the [[ninja rope]] to collect a weapon crate and use those weapons to destroy the opponent.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Shopper was created around 1999 on Worms Armageddon. It was in that time known as '''rope shopping'''. Though it is unknown who was the original creator of shopper, it is clear that one of the most important contributers from the very start of shopper was the player [[Dogma]]. With the creation of his shopper map '''City shopper''' he set the tone for the design and layout of shopper maps for many years to come.<br />
<br />
In the earlier days of shopper it was commonly considered to be a game for newbies. The most popular scheme in that time was [[roper]] and [[proper]], which required a lot more rope skill then shopper. It was common that most newbies would start practising their rope skills on shopper maps, moving to the more difficult rope games once their skills had grown.<br />
<br />
Around 2002, the attitude towards the scheme has started changing. Many who were considered to be elite roper players had left Worms and with it the strong dislike towards shopper. <br />
The shopper game grew more and more in popularity, passing proper as the most popular game on the way.<br />
<br />
In 2004, a new variation of shopper hit the community like a bomb. [[Star Worms]] came out with his idea for the [[Wall-X-wall shopper]]. This idea caught the attention of the community and soon became as popular as the shopper scheme itself.<br />
<br />
== The rules ==<br />
Shopper uses a set of rules commonly known as the [[PACK]] rules. Where PACK stands for;<br />
* [[Pile]] (In order to hurt the player who is last with a weapon in your inventory, damage must be spread to at least 1 other team. generally the PILE rule is combined with ABL these days.)<br />
* [[ABL]] (Injuring any team with a weapon in your inventory. Do NOT injure the last team unless the [[Pile]] rule is used and you spread damage to multiple teams with a weapon in your inventory.)<br />
* [[CBA]] (Collect a Crate at the start of each turn Before Attacking with a weapon from your inventory)<br />
* [[KTC]] (Kill The [[Cow]] or person who is breaking the games rules.)<br />
The ABL rule is sometimes replaced by KTL:<br />
* [[KTL]] (Injuring the 'leader' with a weapon in your inventory. Damage can be spread amongst other teams so long as the leader is injured in the blast.)<br />
Around 2000, a new rule which originated from the [[roper]] scheme made its entrance into shopper: the combination of [[AFR]] and the PACK rules then became known as the proPACK rules. Around 2003, the AFR rule got so integrated into shopper, that the difference between PACK and proPACK was forgotten and AFR became a standard shopper rule.<br />
* [[AFR]] (Attacking from the rope when it is possible with the chosen weapon.)<br />
<br />
As well as the rule mentioned in PACK, shopper had a few less formal/agreed upon rules:<br />
* No [[Girder|girders]]. (They change the landscape permanently.)<br />
* No [[Nuclear Bomb|nukes]]. (They change the landscape permanently.)<br />
* No permanent blocking (e.g. using [[Longbow|arrows]], Girders, Nukes, Etc.)<br />

<br />
== Variations ==<br />
Of all the schemes known in Worms, Shopper probably has the most variations. Because of its extensive popularity, many people came up with their own variations to the shopper scheme, some better known then others:<br />
<br />
* [[Wall-X-wall shopper]] / WXW (The player has to touch a number of specified walls.)<br />
* [[Fly shopper]] (The player has to fly across a pillar in the middle of the map.)<br />
* [[Chamber shopper]] (The map is divided into chambers, often with open tops and separated by a number of vertical pillars. The fly before attack rule may apply.)<br />
* [[Drive-by shopper]] (The player has to make a lap around the map.)<br />
* [[Pod shopper]] (The map consists of 2 or more separated pods.)<br />
* [[Crate collector]] (A [[WWP]] game with a cavern map, super rope and crate mode on.)<br />
* [[Moon shopper]] (Low gravity shopper.)<br />
* [[Tunnel shopper]] (A mix of [[Rope race]] and shopper.)<br />
* [[Speed shopper]] (A 10 or 15 second shopper.)<br />
* [[Power shopper]] (A shopper with high power weapons and 15 seconds turns.)<br />
* [[Surf shopper]] (The player must skim their worm across the water onto an island to gain attacks.)<br />
* [[Chute shopper]] (Shopper without ninja rope, and a map designed for parachuting around. Players must attack from parachute.)<br />
* [[Bungee shopper]] (Shopper with bungee instead of ninja rope, and a map designed for bungeeing around. Players must attack from bungee.)<br />
* [[Loser shopper]] (Shopper played on any map where you can't drown. First to kill all their own worms is the winner.)<br />

<div>{{ParentArticle|[[Guides, FAQs, and ReadMes]]}}<br />
<br />
This FAQ is for technical problems and will only apply to users of the latest [[Beta updates|Beta]] version of Worms Armageddon, or users either trying to update to this version, trying to install WA or trying to access WormNET.<br />
<br />
If you have any questions regarding this FAQ, please add your comments to the [[Talk:Troubleshooting FAQ|talk page]].<br />
<br />
== Installing WA ==<br />
==== I can't install Worms Armageddon. The auto-run installation screen disappears, and nothing else will work. ====<br />
Disabling DMA (Direct Memory Access) has been known to solve this. To disable DMA,<br />
# Start Menu > Control Panel > System<br />
# Click the Hardware tab, then click Device Manager<br />
# Expand the System Devices sublist<br />
# Double-click "Direct memory access controller"<br />
# Select "disable" from the Device Usage drop-down list<br />
<br />
==== The installation freezes at 100%, and the game fails to install when I quit it. ====<br />
Keep waiting, the installation will eventually complete after a few minutes. Cause of this problem is unknown.<br />
<br />
==== I am encountering other problems with installing the game ====<br />
[[User:madewokherd|madewokherd]] has written an alternative [[Automatic Installer]] for W:A. It allows installing W:A on 64-bit Windows operating systems, among others.<br />
<br />
== Patching/updating WA ==<br />
==== When installing the 3.0 patch, I get the error "Failed to find installation path" ====<br />
This is caused by missing or incorrect Registry entries created by the WA installer. This can be solved by reinstalling, or editing the registry entries as follows:<br />
# Start menu > Run > regedit<br />
# Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon\"<br />
# Double-click the PATH string and make sure the directory location is correct<br />
<br />
==== I get a "Bad Integrity" error when trying to run the Patch or Update file ====<br />
The file is corrupted. Try deleting it and downloading it again.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Starting WA ==<br />
==== "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose "Close" to terminate the application." ====<br />
In your Start Menu click '''Run...''', type '''cmd''' and click '''OK'''. In the black prompt box that pops up, type:<br />
<br />
copy %WINDIR%\repair\autoexec.nt %WINDIR%\system32<br />
<br />
If this doesn't work, you can perform the same task manually. Navigate to<br />
<br />
C:\Windows\Repair<br />
<br />
and copy the file "autoexec.nt" to your clipboard. Then navigate to<br />
<br />
C:\Windows\System32<br />
<br />
and paste the file there.<br />
<br />
If your Windows is installed in a location different than C:\Windows, substitute C:\Windows with that location in the above steps.<br />
<br />
==== I get a "No CD" Error ====<br />
You probably tried to patch WA when it did not need patching. Uninstall the game and try installing only the update.<br />
<br />
==== "ltkrn10n.dll was not found" ====<br />
You tried installing an outdated Beta patch on top of an unpatched version of the game. Download and install the [http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=supp&area=upda&file=15 latest Beta update].<br />
<br />
==== When trying to run the game, the Sold Out installation setup sometimes insists that I install the update, even when I have already done so ====<br />
Ignore the message.<br />
<br />
==== "The WA.exe file expects a newer version of Windows. Upgrade your Windows version" ====<br />
Windows 98/ME compatibility has been accidentally broken in 3.6.29.0. Downgrade to [[Beta updates|3.6.28.0]].<br />
<br />
==== "Graphics subsystem error - Unable to set desired video mode" ====<br />
Your video card or video drivers do not support the video mode required by W:A. If you are using Windows Vista on a notebook computer with an Intel video chipset, this is a known problem - Intel has chosen to no longer support old games such as Worms Armageddon for their Vista drivers. The only work-around is to [[Emulating Worms Armageddon|emulate W:A]]. Otherwise, try updating your drivers.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Front-end problems ==<br />
==== I can't see the bottom or right side of the screen in the front end ====<br />
Your font sizes are set to a large value. W:A does not support non-standard font sizes. Open the '''Display Properties''' Control Panel applet, click '''Advanced...''' on the '''Settings''' tab and set font sizes to '''Normal size (96 DPI)'''.<br />
<br />
==== The frontend and menu system suffers flickiness, lacks background sound, messed up animations, or unusually slow/fast animations ====<br />
Locate your WA directory and doubleclick the Tweak folder, then doubleclick the file "SlowFrontEndWorkAround_On.reg". If this doesn't solve the problem, do the same with "SlowFrontEndWorkAround_Off.reg". If this doesn't solve the problem, do the same with "SlowFrontEndWorkAround_AntiFlicker.reg". If neither of these work, your videocard is too modern. These problems will be fixed in a future update. [http://forum.team17.com/showthread.php?t=24821 See this] thread for more details.<br />
<br />
==== The game uses all CPU in the front-end (menus) ====<br />
See the solution in the previous question. Note that it might not be possible to achieve good visuals and low CPU usage at the same time.<br />
<br />
==== When returning from a game, I get a black screen with some white areas ====<br />
This is a problem with DirectX which for which a workaround has not been found. For some reason, the colour palette is set to two colours, black and white. To fix it, minimize by clicking at the bottom of the screen or pressing Shift+Escape, then restore the game.<br />
<br />
== In-game problems ==<br />
==== Right-clicking in-game fails to open the weapons menu ====<br />
The program StrokeIt can be responsible for this. Either disable the program when playing, or find the program option that allows you to prevent it from interfering when WA is running.<br />
<br />
==== In-game plays extremely slow on Windows Vista ====<br />
If you're using an nVidia graphics card, updating to the latest beta drivers has been known to fix this issue. <br />
<br />
==== The water and sky are black ====<br />
Like with the above problem - if you're using an nVidia graphics card on Windows Vista, updating to the latest beta drivers has been known to fix this issue.<br />
<br />
==== Players quit with a "desynchronization error" ====<br />
Desynchronization errors are usually caused by a bug in the game. Search the [[Team17 forums]] if the problem is known. If it isn't, please post the replays of that game '''from all players''' (or at least the host's and the player that desynchronized).<br />
<br />
==== The game colours get all messed up ====<br />
This happens when another application is stealing W:A's palette. W:A logs such occurences to the file "palette.log" in your W:A folder. If you can, try closing the programs listed in the Log file. (use notepad to open it)<br />
<br />
Often it's a component of Windows itself that's stealing W:A's palette (usually '''csrss.exe'''). If you are using Windows Vista, having any Windows Explorer folder open while you play the game has been known to fix it.<br />
<br />
Another known work-around is to disable the '''Indexing Service''' and '''Automatic Updates''' services (Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services).<br />
<br />
== Crashes ==<br />
==== I get a black screen when I try to run WA, then it crashes to desktop or I have to restart the computer ====<br />
Disabling the introduction screens has been known to solve this. To do this, right-click the WA shortcut icon, select properties, and in the "Target" text box, type:<br />
<br />
/nointro<br />
<br />
This must be outside of the quotation marks for it to work. For example,<br />
<br />
"C:\Worms Armageddon\wa.exe" /nointro<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes or minimizes when I try to edit the map, or edit or create a team ====<br />
This is caused by having a program with an "Always On Top" feature. MSN Messenger is a common culprit. Try closing other programs, or finding this setting and disabling it.<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I try to edit or create a team on Windows Vista ====<br />
If you enabled any compatibility options for W:A, disable them. The crash is caused by [http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx?siteid=1&postid=3967411 a problem in Windows Vista's compatibility layer].<br />
<br />
==== WA crashes when I minimise and then try to maximise ====<br />
Minimising in the front-end is not yet stable; WA will always be prone to crashing until this is optimised.<br />
<br />
== WormNET ==<br />
==== No one can join my games ====<br />
Consult the [[Hosting Guide]].<br />
<br />
==== I can't join my friend's game ====<br />
Your friend may need to do some network set-up first - see the previous question.<br />
<br />
==== I see the error "Unable to detect IPX protocol" when clicking "Test network" ====<br />
Ignore this error. [[w:IPX|IPX]] is an outdated network protocol, obsoleted by TCP/IP.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, the game freezes up ====<br />
ZoneAlarm (and possibly other firewalls) can cause this by producing a pop-up in the background when it detects your computer trying to connect. Configure ZoneAlarm so that it already allows access to WormNET.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to connect to WormNET, nothing happens ====<br />
PeerGuardian can cause this by blocking the WormNET IP address. Consider reconfiguring or disabling PeerGuardian.<br />
<br />
==== When I join WormNET, the content of the channel list, player list and the message of the day box never loads ====<br />
Restarting the game or your computer has been known to fix this.<br />
<br />
==== When I try to join games, I keep getting a "Checksum 15" error ====<br />
This occurs when the game has been improperly updated. Follow the installation tutorial carefully.<br />
<br />
==== When I host a color map the other players get an error saying: "PNG error: Invalid distance too far back" and the map doesn't load for them ====<br />
This is thought to be caused by firewall software that is interfering with outgoing data. Contact your network administrator.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Miscellaneous ==<br />
==== An alternative solution to many problems ====<br />
Many hardware/software/OS incompatibility problems can be solved by [[Emulating Worms Armageddon]], if you don't mind a performance trade-off.<br />
<br />
==== I downloaded Worms Armageddon from the Internet without paying. Can you help me? ====<br />
Yes. Please consult [http://cristgaming.com/pirate.swf this advisory video].</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Talk:Troubleshooting_FAQ&diff=7618Talk:Troubleshooting FAQ2008-06-24T13:03:04Z<p>Franpa: </p>

The most popular scheme in that time was [[roper]] and [[proper]], which required a lot more rope skill then shopper. It was common that most newbies would start practising their rope skills on shopper maps, moving to the more difficult rope games once their skills had grown.<br />
<br />
Around 2002, the attitude towards the scheme has started changing. Many who were considered to be elite roper players had left Worms and with it the strong dislike towards shopper. <br />
The shopper game grew more and more in popularity, passing proper as the most popular game on the way.<br />
<br />
In 2004, a new variation of shopper hit the community like a bomb. [[Star Worms]] came out with his idea for the [[Wall-X-wall shopper]]. This idea caught the attention of the community and soon became as popular as the shopper scheme itself.<br />
<br />
== The rules ==<br />
Shopper uses a set of rules commonly known as the [[PACK]] rules. Where PACK stands for;<br />
* [[Pile]] (In order to hurt the player who is last with a weapon in your inventory, damage must be spread to at least 1 other team. generally the PILE rule is combined with ABL these days.)<br />
* [[ABL]] (Injuring any team with a weapon in your inventory. Do NOT injure the last team.)<br />
* [[CBA]] (Collect a Crate at the start of each turn Before Attacking with a weapon from your inventory)<br />
* [[KTC]] (Kill The [[Cow]] or person who is breaking the games rules.)<br />
<br />
* [[KTL]] (Injuring the 'leader' with a weapon in your inventory. Damage can be spread amongst other teams so long as the leader is injured in the blast.)<br />
Around 2000, a new rule which originated from the [[roper]] scheme made its entrance into shopper: the combination of [[AFR]] and the PACK rules then became known as the proPACK rules. Around 2003, the AFR rule got so integrated into shopper, that the difference between PACK and proPACK was forgotten and AFR became a standard shopper rule.<br />
* [[AFR]] (Attacking from the rope when it is possible with the chosen weapon.)<br />
<br />
As well as the rule mentioned in PACK, shopper had a few less formal/agreed upon rules:<br />
* No [[Girder|girders]].<br />
* No [[Nuclear Bomb|nukes]].<br />
* No permanent blocking (e.g. using [[Longbow|arrows]]).<br />

<br />
If you stand on an opponent worm's head, aim directly downwards and tap the spacebar, the [[Cluster Bomb]] will sit on the worm's head. When the timer finishes and the bomb detonates, all of the clusters will immediately explode, causing very large damage to the worm.<br />

The same effect can be achieved by placing the Cluster Bomb under the worm when the worm is on a steep slope, but this is not a bug as such.</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Instant_Cluster_Explosion&diff=5289Instant Cluster Explosion2007-12-08T10:16:21Z<p>Franpa: </p>

<div>{{ParentArticle|[[Tricks and glitches (Second generation)]]}}<br />
<br />
=== Introduction ===<br />
<br />
This is a glitch that works with several weapons, namely those which are supposed to explode on impact with its surroundings - bazooka only being the most prominent one. This glitch makes it possible to place these weapons on a worm where they remain until eventually their timer runs out and they explode. The weapons it works with are Bazooka, Mortar and Petrol Bomb, and also Homing Missile, Homing Pigeon, Sheep Launcher and Patsy's Magic Bullet, though these will become unglued after about a second.<br />
<br />
=== How to do it ===<br />
<br />
Approach a worm which is standing on horizontal ground and below a ceiling (within reach of a Ninja Rope), and slowly walk up one of its sides. You will notice your worm abruptly moving upward a few pixels - the usual behavior when it's climbing another worm. Keep moving carefully until exactly two of these upward movements have occurred, then select the Ninja Rope and shoot it straight up at the ceiling. Once it attaches, do not move your worm anymore. Instead, select the weapon you want to place on the opponent's worm and release it.<br />
<br />
=== Alternative method ===<br />
<br />
There is a second way to do this glitch, but it is limited to the Petrol Bomb and requires a little more sleight of hand. Then again, it is not necessary to have the worm standing on horizontal ground. First you'll need to position your worm as close to your opponent's location as possible (e.g. by releasing a Ninja Rope right above it and then tapping the arrow keys to move closer). Now shoot the Ninja Rope straight upward and carefully tap the up arrow to move 3 pixels up, until your worm's position resembles this picture:<br><br><br />
[[Image:Petrol.jpg]]<br><br><br />
Now you can fire the Petrol Bomb, and it should stay motionless on the other worm.<br />
<br />
=== Practical aspect ===<br />
<br />
At first, this glitch appears to be useless for tactical purposes. Quite conversely though, it is possible to do around four times as much damage with the mortar as you would shooting it at a worm and hoping for the clusters to hit it. This works only if you do the above climbing up the face of a worm, not its back. This tactic could be very useful in [[Shopper]] games, but as it is rather unusual, you'll have to make sure the other players don't dislike the idea of (ab)using glitches.</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Community&diff=5217Community2007-11-20T14:11:49Z<p>Franpa: /* Clans */</p>

<div>which methosds work in worms world party/worms 2? so that it can be updated? --[[User:Franpa|Franpa]] 06:57, 16 October 2007 (MST)</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=Indian_Rope_trick&diff=5073Indian Rope trick2007-10-16T13:53:52Z<p>Franpa: small change on the bottom line.</p>
<hr />
<div>{{ParentArticle|[[Tricks and glitches (Second generation)]]}}<br />
==Introduction==<br />
This trick, which dates from Worms 2, can only be pulled off if you have either Worms 2 or Worms Armageddon version TODO. This will also be reenabled as an option in a later version of WA. It is where you can reach high places using 1 ninja rope. You must also have another aimable weapon not on the F8 row, but this will not be used if done correctly.<br />
<br />
==How?==<br />
You select the aimable weapon (eg shotgun, bazooka etc.). This must not be on the F8 row. Aim all the way down. Then press backspace (vertical jump), then QUICKLY press F8 (select ninja rope), then space (fire). Do this all before you land. This should hopefully shoot a ninja rope down to the ground. DO NOT PRESS LEFT OR RIGHT! Press down to elevate yourself, and up to descend. When you get above the cliff or whatever, press the arrow key in the direction of where the cliff is. If you have done this correctly, you should swing down onto the cliff.<br />
<br />
==Why?==<br />
Because there was a hole in the function that stops you from being able to shoot the ninja rope down, if you are jumping it retains the aim of the weapon. Omit the backspace and you'll see why this is important.<br />
<br />
=== Test Stuff V5 ===<br />
<br />
this bug is reintroduced as a feature when Test Stuff V5 is enabled.</div>Franpahttps://worms2d.info/?title=User:Franpa&diff=5072User:Franpa2007-10-16T13:46:31Z<p>Franpa: </p>
