General Development / DP2DEMO - Windows Shell Extension to launce demos
« on: May 22, 2007, 06:03:10 PM »
I stripped down cure's demoplay for paintball2.
http://cure.gamepoint.net/demoplay/cure_demoplay_windows.html
Q: What is it?
A: It's some scripting that will let you right click a demo file anywhere on your computer and run the demo by clicking "Play Demo" on your right-click shell menu.
Q: My dpball isn't installed to C:\Games\Paintball2\, will it still work?
A: You'll need to modify the files, but they're pretty noob friendly so it shouldn't be too hard for you to get it to work.
Q: How does it run the demo from ANYWHERE?
A: It copies the demo to pball/demos/tempdemo.dm2 and runs that.
Q: How do I uninstall?
A: Run the "uninstall.reg" file and then delete the dp2demo directory.
Q: Will this work on Vista?
A: Maybe, I only tested it on XP and Win2K.
Q: Who has mad hops?
A: Spook does, and you can open his jump demos easily using this.
Instructions on dp2demo:
1. Download the attached file
2. Extract so that the dp2demo directory is C:\Games\Paintball2\dp2demo\
3. Double-click "install.reg" to add the registry key (for shell extension)
4. Right click a .dm2 file (from any directory) and click the "Play Demo" option on your shell extension
5. Enjoy!

Other Stuff / Tremulous
« on: September 12, 2006, 04:22:56 PM »
http://www.tremulous.net/
For those of you who somehow still don't know what the game is, here it is: RTS + FPS = TREM!!!111
It will remind you of Natural Selection, except that it uses Icculus's version of the Quake 3 engine...so it looks better...and plays better...etc.
Aight, so me and Smokey were playing so I decided to cam it for all of you. DL trem, put the demo file in /tremulous/base/demos/, then run it with "/demo killaz" from console.
http://upload.arena-zone.com/522582
You might not want to watch the beginning part, where I'm spectating...you might want to have the window minimized for that (alt+enter, then ~ to pull down console to get cursor to minimize)
I tend to make people sick with demo's of my spectator movement...

With a lot of newer players joining the community, a new moderator for the forums was mentioned as being a good way to "improve the community".
I vote "Eiii" since he's a very active member of the forums and community, has a good general knowledge on all topics, and doesn't give in to flame wars.

Bugs, Feature Requests, and Feedback / Request: Serverlist Filters/Sorting options
« on: August 25, 2006, 08:54:25 PM »
I'd like to request that the ingame serverlist have the option to sort servers by players, ping, mapname, etc...
I'd also like for the serverlist to display a lock image or something like that if the server has a password on it.
It would be nice to be able to filter out full and empty servers too.
K? Thanx.

« on: August 16, 2006, 02:57:50 PM »
Actual Gameplay/Missions: 6/10
Goofing off with weapons: 10/10
I still don't know the whole story, because the ingame font is really small and when you talk to people outside of cutscenes, they don't actually talk, dialog boxes just come up. The missions can be hard when it takes 20 headshots to kill a human gunner, and you only have 10 bullets and have to resort to shotting hockey pucks at him with your hockey stick. The weapons in the game are awesome, my favorites are: the lawnmower, chaingun, knife, hockey stick, and propane tank. Supprisingly, for a zombie game, the chainsaw has to be one of the worst weapons in the game, you do better with a baseball bat.
Goofing off is awesome, it'll remind you of GTA's, except the weapon selection is far better. Some weapons are hard to find, but when you find them, my oh my are they fun. They don't last long though, just like in Oblivion, your weapon gets worn out from hitting things, which is why its good to increase your "stock", which will allow you to carry more items.

I tested out the "in" feature on the cube, its pretty cool, but I like it disabled better, the outside of the cube allows an image on the top and bottom of the cube, with the "in" feature enabled they don't show.

Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin
I came to win, battle me that's a sin
I won't ever slack up, punk you better back up
Try and play the role and yo the whole crew'll act up
Get up, stand up (c'mon!) c'mon throw your hands up
If you've got the feeling, jump across the ceiling
Muggs lifts a funk flow, someone's talking junk
Yo I bust him in the eye, and then I'll take the punk's hoe
Feelin, funkin, amps in the trunk and I got more rhymes
than there's cops at a Dunkin' Donuts shop
Sho' nuff, I got props
From the kids on the Hill plus my mom and my pops
I came to get down, I came to get down

Anyone stepping to me you'll get burned
Cause I got lyrics, but you ain't got none
If you come to battle bring a shotgun!
But if you do you're a fool, cause I duel, to the death
Trying to step to me, you'll take your last breath
I got the skills, come get your fill
Cause when I shoot the gift, I shoot to Kill

Bugs, Feature Requests, and Feedback / Build 16 field of view glitch
« on: June 25, 2006, 09:32:26 PM »
Alright, so I'd never played in an fov higher than 150, and have fov's bound all over to the buttons on my mouse. I decided to try some jumps with the fov of 9999, which actually is way higher than the max, but I don't know what the max fov is. I like this max fov a lot, I played, and I did awesome with it on maps I knew well.
Then on midnight at the end of the tunnel to the mid, I heard steps, so I stopped in my tunnel and moved up against the wall so when the enemy entered they would be right infront of me to shoot, well this fov has a glitch, when you are up against a wall, you can see through it, so of course I saw the person, set my fov to 90 on my mouse, and then turned the corner and naded them.
So for the next build I request that this built in bug/glitch/wallhack be fixed.

Resolved Help & Support / Linux USB Mouse cursor stuck moving upward
« on: May 26, 2006, 11:00:49 PM »
This isn't a dpball problem, so its not in bugs, its in Help and Support.
When I start dpball my cursor sticks to the top of the screen, I can pull down console and load a map, but then once the map loads the mouse problem makes me look up quickly and be looking up, unable to look down.
Is there a patch or something for this? DPball and the original Quake2 are the only games that show me this problem.
<--Edit-->
Nevermind, I made a demo's folder, loaded up some demos and added a couple maps, rebooted, and now it seems to work for some reason.
