I can check the confidential log searcher for admin command events. But give me about an hour to reply to this topic again.

Logs can be accessed here: http://tf2swapshop.com/logs/server-04/

I found no trace of "godmode" or "Buddha" but you can check for yourself using the link above.^^

I have checked the shop log and the sourcemod log, and I can say myself that I did not find any trace of godmode or buddha being used, but that doesn't explain the way I, or my friend could not land a bullet on him even though we were aiming at the right spots. It's extremely bizarre, and I have never seen anything like it, only on people who have had god mode enabled, and he just happens to be an administrator with that power at hand.

Well once BloodRain comes back with the results of the log searcher, we'll know if any commands associated with invulnerability were used.

I have found that Lethal had only one entry for an unlisted command.

P.S) The command was a gag issued onto a player, but the searcher did not have the gag command implemented in the list of commands.

It will be fixed now.

I believe I know why. I think it has something to do with server desync and hit detection being wonky. Yesterday I was doing a sniper duel with one of my friends and quite a few times both of us shot each other clearly in the head but it didn't register. (Said duel didn't last long due to players constantly interrupting it and I had to do something else soon after). But same thing can happen with melee weapons,  though that occurs more frequent.

If it is a SERVER desync, why doesn't it occur with every single player?

I've been playing TF2 for 7 years, 5,000+ hours, and never seen such thing, as I said.

It happens randomly in my opinion. Many times I've hit someone but it didn't register, but it's also happened to some other players I know of. It might he closer to player desync that causes it, which is usually caused by a bad connection.

It didn't register, then it was fine for a while, and then it started happening again about five minutes later. Can anyone else here explain if they've been in this situation before?

Increasing the size of a players head via !vip perks only increases the appearance of the head, right? I don't think it affects the head's hitbox. If it does, then most of those shots, after watching the footage, would definitely have been headshots. I'm not an expert on how Source games work but the hitbox might explain it.

The head size is only aesthetic. It doesn't change a player's hitbox. And after seeing the video, I too agree that most of those shots should've hit.

It only cosmetic but it does tend to throw people's aim, and I've had repeatedly been yelled at for my head size.

As I said before, I was aiming at the same spot before the "missed shots", and was hitting them fine. The big head doesn't throw me off much. Then.. The whole hit registration as a whole got removed. Which I don't think is even possible..

We've been fighting before you started recording, and by that time I trying to make better movements to avoid getting hit. Hit registration doesn't get removed entirely. It either recognizes a hit or it doesn't, simple as that.
