ANSI color codes for dedicated console?
« on: January 06, 2005, 12:54:30 PM »
Just a random "that might be cool" idea that popped into my head.  Think it would be worth implementing?

so you can see funnames / colored text?

I don't know what you mean by "for dedicated console".

For the dedicated server console -- if people use colors/extended characters in their names it just looks like gibberish on the server console.  I thought it might be cool to have colors and such.  It's not a feature many people would see. :)

Jits ask some of other important communities  members that still use q2 this question please , like aura and others who have never cheated...this is an old subject .

  This is a subject needs much debateing  , but till then alot of your innocent players are still getting kicked just for checking the score (Boooo!!!) ...that is all .   

As a side note the color problem is not as bad as before , since the word has spread and admins (not just graf servers) have agreed that the names are an offense to the game they kick and people have learned .   :'(

1st    jits,eiii,tacosmell (u 3 at least know and admit your sin) and others who know how to exploit q2 .
To those i say  F/U for being smart and learning beond what the game was intended for therefore stop cheating and hating q2 if you dont, this was a compliment and complaint in one . Complaint for you knowing cheats period you hav eno rime or reason to knwo such things (Jits excluded) also for being paranoid to the effect that every one uses q2 is a cheater (chekc out pwned.nl) , your souls are corrupt . compliment u have good intentions

In addition it was said that "most gamers dont read faqs" , if that is true where , how and why do the cheaters who copying cheats from q2 from reading :)
 

  For the mos tpart cheats dont write thier  own cheats

 . Being true and to complete my point why arn't these people be isolated and shuned/banned , instead of the non cheating q2 mod users that got us here. 

Anwser this i dare you doubters and wirte something that can let the admin see what version is being used at the very least !!!!   


2nd     Please read the multipul plea(s) of current players and years past arguments on this here forum , all players who use q2  and who dont cheat  are being told what is best for us, what is that ? fairness i think not

3nd  I Respect what your trying to do . In all do repspect,  its what you and a select few think best so far that this forum has witnessed.

5th   Ask (like jits did) dont tell . Good luck otherwise.

6th   A central agreement vital to this/or any other game , anything else is moronic in nature

7th Gents the admins no matter who (apex/graf) should have ultimate control of allowing versions to pass , period , not the players or software writers we dont pay for them despite the hours of love and passion we put into them

So with that in mind...good luck ..lots of work to make everyone happy.  

summation fix that stupid name exploit ..

 jits it is offensive to the game any other explanation is a cop out for know, untill there is a public debate.

btw please start this as a new thread i dare ya friend
