(copying a previous post of mine)

bind = "qlrdAnnounce"
bind - "qlrdChangeOutput"
seta _qlrd_outputMethod "echo" //defaults to echo, less annoying

is all you need, once QLHM is installed (NOT the beta version), and the QLranks plugin from within that.
if QLHM failed to load though it wont show, so check for the HOOK link used for QLHM settings under your quakelive logo, if it's not there then web_restart till it shows.

Nice! the community as always doing what id can't do.

So what about ingame friend list as you are windowed? why in hell did they remove this feature?

And why in holy hell haven't they given us the option to disable ingame friend notifications? They have broken it and I don't stop having friend X connected/disconnected constantly.

Except QLHM only works because Sponge explicitly wrote the stand alone client to allow such functionality to be added by the community...

Paraphrasing a redit -
They're never going to incorporate a 3rd party site into their own. The ranking QLranks does, they do internally anyway, it's just they don't want to display it.
When QuakeWorld had a system like that and showed player rank to the server when someone connected it just stopped tons of games happening as everyone would leave the server when someone higher joined.

QLranks is cool and all, but for the 95% of players that don't know about it/care about it (most outside of tier4, but a lot of tier4 too) it's better left unseen.


As for the in game online/offline thing, I and several others have been asking to disable that since day1, every single year... sigh.
It's annoying for us, and it's REALLY bad for streamers.

So what about ingame friend list as you are windowed? why in hell did they remove this feature?

It's still there, just not when windowed but with the Esc overlay.

just think how much better everything will be once ql is on steam

fck ID and fck Syncsh!tty. Guy makes me sick with this incompetence. Sync you fcked this up, bigtime. I wouldn't show my face in public if I were you. You've got some nerve, bro.

He shows his face at Quake Con.

lol...

Offtopic: What does the parenthesis value next to your ELO means? the highest ever rated?

Yes.

So why dont they state it somewhere like "highest rated: "? its confusing.

why do I have to do web_reload every single time to load the hook?

it's a feature

lol
