Re: Issues.

I don't know why so people make such a big deal out of things like this. If you are playing on servers like mofo's for the gameplay than just lay low and have fun, nobody will bother you. If you are going there for the company, then you should go someplace else. Also this whole topic is direct to on...

Re: Is this a cheap tactic?

I wouldn't call it cheap, just a fair trade-off. If the other team cared enough, they could just as easily camp on there own out-rail, else they can accept the gambit grab cloaking.
Although these tactics would really slow down the gameplay when you have less the 6 or so players.

Re: Wings Gravity Change Discussion

In my opinion wings have improved. I always disliked the people who would skydive, and if you shoot at them they simply press the tab key and are back in safety, else they just hit the ground and shoot you or make you jump, then are also back in safety. Whereas, now they can't jump from such high he...

Re: 1v1 with Superflags?

The only way I can make this work out in my mind would be to use the flag give plugin so when you spawn you get the same flag as your opponent. This could be used to add some variety like giving out cloaking, quick turn, narrow, tiny, etc. But this would be only for the fun factor and not trying to ...

Re: localhost 127.0.0.1

To edit a filter on the server list hit the '/' button. ( It is right beside the shift key.)
And if you want to join a local server you don't need to search the server list. On the join game menu you just need to type is your 127.0.0.1 in the server spot and 5154 in the port spot.

Re: Parilis

I think this is a really nice map, cool design, and nice layers. Good for alot of stealth. Maybe some bridges would be fun.
Although I think you should really cut back on the SW, it is way to powerfull, and 42 is too many. I think even 20 would be too many.

Maybe use the 'color' attribute. I think diffuse does the same thing too As far as I know it take 4 values. They are Red, Green, Blue, Alpha, and it seems that the values only go from 0 to 1. Example : color 1 0 0 1 This would make you a red mesh. You are right that they wiki isn't very detailed, bu...

Re: Help, please.

As I said you need to change the names you cannot have two physics with the same name. I highly doubt that making another overwrites the first one. I presume when you tell the meshbox to use a physics it starts looking at the top of the file for the physics, not the most recently made one. So just s...

One big factor is having 2 BZAdmin obs just sitting there, so the map with them are always on the top and are much[b\] easier to 'seed'.
