What i mean by this is like a floating name or if you put your crosshair on someone a name shows up. either on him or above his head, something to that affect. Idk, its something they put into QW that i liked, just for teams tho, not for enemy's. Although it wouldnt be the end of the world if you did it for both.

Toggle 'id', and you will see player names. It's not very readable, especially if your monitor has a high resolution, since they appear in the hud and only when they are in your crosshairs (and not too far away).

Well, i guess that works, but its towards the bottom of the screen, is there a var to move it?
And it shows the gender/model...which is useless seeing that that are all the same.

we need to re-impliment female models...or a least have some different ones.

Yeah. I'm thinking of switching over to Quake3-format models or maybe skeletal models which will sort of re-define how the player model system works.

Here are some things that are definitly a strech, but just popped into my mind.

-Mod the engine so it supporst stereo (that red/blue glasses thing)

-Make a little thing that you have to pick up like a gun and throw like a grenade. It could be an immoble "camera" you could see through for a short time.

-PAINT TURRETS!!!!!

eiii, it does support stereo glasses, but not those red/blue thingies.

Cam grens would be fun but also kind of a cheat, since you could toss a gren and see where the enemy is.

FourthX · « **Reply #128 on:** February 03, 2004, 05:27:27 AM »

That's more or less the point. anyway, you would only be able to see out of it for a few seconds. You can contorl where it looks though. mabe a box in the corner of your screen? and the mappers would have to put it in their map like a gun, so it doens't spoil gameplay on older maps.

It's not too bad of an idea but seems too tekky for paintball.

I was actually thinking of that, but I don't have any red/blue glasses handy to test it. It wouldn't be too hard, but it might be hard to tell team colors apart and such, heh.

Eiii · « **Reply #132 on:** February 03, 2004, 05:26:05 PM »

i have some red blue glasses, that y i was interested. You could also make it so each team has a color and a "logo", like in UT

ok i have a few ideas, some of them i dont think will get through but maybe.... We should have belts with pods first of all. And this idea may sound stupid but in some peoples eyes it wouldnt, maybe someday you guys can do something so each time you win a match or killl someone you score points. And when you save engough points you can buy stuff that you have with you in every match even if you drop it because you bought it. Lol let me know what you think.

yo_79 · « **Reply #134 on:** February 15, 2004, 04:46:11 AM »

and one more of my ideas that is not so crazy, to add more parts to the game. what i mean is like, you can pick up a new reg or x-chamber or cocking bolt.

jitspoe · « **Reply #135 on:** February 15, 2004, 01:36:04 PM »

I actually think it might be a good idea to use pods -- replace the ammo packs, and make it so you actually have to stop shooting and refill your hopper.

Eiii · « **Reply #136 on:** February 16, 2004, 07:07:03 PM »

but only 1-2 seconds
i'd hate to have another co2-ish thing

meat · « **Reply #137 on:** February 16, 2004, 07:24:53 PM »

would it be animated too =), either way that sounds like a good idea to me, it''ll slow spam down a bit.

Excalibur · « **Reply #138 on:** February 19, 2004, 12:02:45 AM »

how about making it so you buy your weps and items for the next round. like you start with pgp and your starting co2 and stuff and when you get 5 kills you can get autocockers and the better stuff for it. i know some would say that wont work but maybe you could make that like a server side option for those that like that idie and those that dont.

yo_79 · « **Reply #139 on:** February 19, 2004, 04:09:33 AM »

yea like someone could put up an experemental few maps that have that in them and if someone is willing to put it on there server that would be great. i am going to join the map thing on irc and laern how anyway so im gona try it and if it fails then i learned something, people are cheap. lol
