Whoa, calm down on the caps there. I'm reluctant to add something like leaning because I think it would be a pointless feature in a game this fast. You can strafe left or right easily enough, which is essentially the same thing. By the time you lean around a bunker, someone will have run around and shot you in the back.

I guess enough people have requested it to justify putting it in, though. I'd put it in if I make the realistic mode anyway. I should also add a grappling hook to the realistic mode...

imo realism is not the goal, if we wanted something real (like a life) we'd get our ass off the comptuer and go outside but lets admit it, the sun is bad for you. besides how can you ever get realism with the 2x jump and strafe?

pods are a great idea, players will have to use their ammo more effectively rather than spraying corners/pathways

overall i love dp and think that is the best full conversion mod i have played personally for acarde style fun.

Id like to be able to see the balls better.. as computers get better.. the balls get harder and harder to see, I lowerd my FPS down to 60, but its still a real pain.

I hadn't noticed that trend, but I am planning on seeing if I can give the paintballs some sort of motionblur streak to make them more visible.

how bout making that an opiton? cause on some comps, it might look really crappy.

Anrkist · « **Reply #167 on:** March 09, 2004, 06:27:08 PM »

perhaps a glow.. i dunno.. but a blur might do the trick

i was just playing and i thought of some things. 1st) ok first maybe a little clearer water so you can see in it like i dont know REAL WATER. 2nd) maybe making it so if someone throws a grenade you can jump on it and take all the paintballs so non of your allies get hit. i was playing the other day and somone threw a grenade into base and killed 5 guys.

How about getting rid of csay? is this feature useful? Ive never seen it used for good.. its being abused like no other on the servers.. and thats all its ever been used for, abuse.

Excalibur · « **Reply #170 on:** March 14, 2004, 07:35:43 PM »

yea i agree with anrkist peeps calling other peeps merry and how much they suck i have never seen it used for good.

jitspoe · « **Reply #171 on:** March 14, 2004, 09:28:56 PM »

You shouldn't be able to use csay unless you're logged in...

I can disable it, though. No big deal.

Excal: I'm planning on making some nice, semi-reflective water. Might only work on newer cards, though. If you were playing on real maps, a gren wouldn't take out 5 guys unless they were dumb and clustered together.

The new maplist system should take care of maps having more players than they are designed to handle.

jits.. actuly from what one of XPs admins said cprint is being used by anyone who wants to use it.. even with the level set high.. personaly, I still think it should be disabled altogether. =]

Excalibur · « **Reply #173 on:** March 15, 2004, 06:06:40 PM »

before we take it out altogether we need to find out why was it put in dp in the first place, jit?

jitspoe · « **Reply #174 on:** March 16, 2004, 12:30:12 AM »

Look at Calrathan for that one. My guess is either for debugging purposes or so admins can display messages to everyone.

Excalibur · « **Reply #175 on:** March 16, 2004, 12:31:17 AM »

if thats what its used for then take it out. i can see the messages to everyone but thats why we have chat for

[ Important ETG Global csay From VD-WHiZ ] EnterTheGame is pleased to announce...

Eiii · « **Reply #177 on:** March 16, 2004, 04:54:38 PM »

yeah, some players don't pay attention to the chat, so csay is nice, but it should only be used for HIGH level admins

Excalibur · « **Reply #178 on:** March 16, 2004, 07:10:09 PM »

how about server host only? or you have to do some kind of pass like (pass xxxxx//csay bla bla bla)

Eiii · « **Reply #179 on:** March 16, 2004, 07:42:15 PM »

um...if you mean a password for admins, they've got that.

if you mean a password for csay, i second. some admins aren't mature enough to handle csay... ;-)
