lol

(01:12:57) • GoD^spyteman hugs runcrantz too

plz, i only said 'wee' cuz i wanted to see it, not fool around with you!

You send hords of lemmings over me !!! :(

cuntratz?

hi honey i have brown hair and a tight arse wanna chat

Best thing is it was done on a guy called pure luck, lol.

12 kb/s

is the ESR server always this slow?

its a capped ftp, still its free from BW, so cant complain too much i guess.

You have to use a BW subscription to get faster transfers from out FTP. They do host this site for free though.

hate having to pay monthly fee's just so i can download at half ass speed.

I can get over 1MB a second. What kind of ass do you have?

i usually d/l @ 500-700kb/s...@ this place i get 12kb/s

saying it sucks to have to pay for a reasonable download speed. hell, thats why i already pay for broadband right?

Well you didn't say that above :). Bandwidth does cost real money to a server host though. You may be paying your ISP for your broadband, but 0% of that money is going to Barrysworld.

However I agree, it would be much better for everyone if high speeds could be provided without any subscription. We've avoided most of the annoying banners and pop-ups in the past but we'll need to do some sort of advertising in the future to cover the hosting costs - then we can probably afford the bandwidth for people to download.

oh ya i know about bandwidth costs, but this is the first free d/l site ive seen w/ 12kb/s lol...most ive seen are capped @ 100 kb/s or not capped at all..

i dont really mind, i hardly d/l anything off this site...but when i see a demo i want, or something like this... i want it but the speed sucks :(


guess im just spoiled by broadband :o


have you guys ever considered putting up a paypal donations thing? i havnt seen one on this site, but im sure people would pitch in come cash...

The majority of UK internet users won't even reach speeds of 100kb/s. Hence the cap would be useless to save bandwith :)

Its dumb anyway, making the transfers slower isn't going to limit the amount of bandwidth used.. we just wait longer for the file....

Its a move to promote users to subscribe and actually pay.

true, but yet those with 1024kbits will ;)
120kbs POWAH

Most files that are hosted on ESR are pretty small. A file of 10 Mb is large. I do agree 12 kb/s would be annoying if it was larger files.

Anyway. ESR has a lot of traffic each month and BW hosts it for free, in exchange for a banner. They are definately more than generous to us on the whole.

o_______O

maybe shadows enabled in original config? Or is it more a timenudge prediction thing?

That's why I used ' '. It's really nice prediction, good timing, and maybe a bit of luck too :)

this was 08/15 q3-railshot with 75% luck included... there is nothing special about it, but it was done by prozac and prozac is w00t !

pffff .... jealous ._.

Where can I download 08/15 rail demos ? :)

wtf ARE 8/15 rail demos? as in 8/15 shots hit?

I mean demos with such rail frags like the one in this clip :).
I didn't upload it just because it is prozac who made that shot, but because it is a crazy shot. I would have uploaded a clip featuring an unknown player too if there was any.
There were also many guys asking for this clip after watching ESR uncut, there is even a thread in the ESR Q3 forum about this frag.

The funny thing is that if it would have been an unknown player he would have been accused of using cheats

08/15 is german 'slang' for something really "usual", "common", "normal". You can say it to anything.

oh really..

Heat-seaking rails slugs! o_0

How does TimeNudge work?

how about !google timenudge explanation ? :)

ProzaC prince of luck!

Player makes his luck by making ugly shots, look good. IMHO.

And people say the CS hitboxes are fucked up. This type of frag is only possible because the Quake 3 hitbox is larger than most of the character models. So you can actually shoot slightly to the left and right of Sarge yet still score a hit. You can also hit what appears to be thin air beneath his feet after he's jumped; even though the animation displays Sarge pulling his legs up, the hit box is not altered to accompany this visual effect and so frags can still be made by shooting at what appears to be nothing. This is probably what happened in the match featured.

This page illustrates it quite nicely:

http://www.planetquake.com/alternatefire/unlagged_faq.html

that's why bitterman > *

The main problem of the hitboxes in Q3 is that the animation of the model does move the model up/down for jumps etc, although Q3 also moves the model up/down, thus the model goes up twice as high as the hitbox. At least this is what I recall from what I've read about it.
About the hitbox beeing a bit larger than some models and thicker than others, well, it's plain normal.
The hitbox in Q3 has consistant dimensions whatever the model, this prevents players using Bones to have an advantage over players using Keel, for example. Else you would have every experienced players using Bones, which would be sad, and newbies using tankjr would be hit 2 or 3 times easier... Not to talk about dodging skills. :)
\cg_enemymodel would have made it even worse of course (newbies not knowing it, leet players all using Bones and cg_enemymodel TankJR... :)

Maybe ID should have stuck with models that all fitted the hitbox's dimensions, but this would have been less fun imo, I think they made a good decision by making different fun models and a single consistant hitbox for every model.

Yes i do agree that it was a good decision by id, one of the most striking things when first playing Quake 3 is the diversity and imagination of the models they created. The models are almost all very unrepresentative of the hitbox though, which is a problem especially pertinent for competitive gaming. It may have been a good idea if, shortly after Quake 3's release, OSP or CPMA created a few models that were tailored exactly to fit the hittable area.

loerl... you mean running boxes, jumping boxes and flying boxes ? nice ! i thought of it before... maybe it will come in the next osp release ;)

Haha yeh i've talked to loads of people that say they would approve of it. 'Callvote box-models 1' may only be a matter of time. =)

hmmm....according to that link you posted "THERAILMCCOY" ( http://www.planetquake.com/alternatefire/unlagged_faq.html )
there should be a command "\cg_projectileNudge" in Quake3's console/txt/cfg file...

closest command I found was "cg_noProjectileTrail"...hmmm...is it just my q3, or is there actually no such thing as cg_projectile trail?

oh! nevermind! rofl, this is a FAQ for a mod...which has that command in it no doubt.... right :)

:>

"or is there actually no such thing as cg_projectile trail?" <- meant to type CG_ProjectileNudge :p

Heard about the edit button? It's cool.

"So you can actually shoot slightly to the left and right of Sarge yet still score a hit."

After what I have heard, Sarge is the _only_ model who's equally big to the 'hitbox versus model'-issue. In other words,
"sarges model=the hitbox in q3" But I guess that's wrong then.

=)

Nice FAQ, im gonna read it!

I feel Keel fits in more squarely into the hitbox _except_ for his head.

- smack

Could be. I have never used keel as an enemy. Don't ask me why, but I prefer sarge as a headmodel and as an enemymodel.

where can I get the demo this avi was made from ?

What is song called =]

Orff -- Carmina Burana - O'Fortuna
I have no idea who's version that is, but it sounds like: Robert Shaw conducting the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.

Thx u sir =]

lol? There are dozens of versions of this song and they sound the same in this small cut, how can you know o_O

Use the force Mauve

Damn i forgot to master :(

carmina burana ownz m8 ;>

It says look closeley but there is nothing to see!

That's the point :p

hum, and why not a r_subdivions 's bug ?

at r_subdivisions 135 and over, you can see things that would not appear at r_subdivisions 0 ...

Ooo yeah... talking about that fucked up wall in this area we noticed at GA.Q this week end ? :)

wallhack i tell you! :)

I cant watch it :((((((
Media player opens then after a while it timesout.

Try right-clicking the link and "save as"

I have tryed that, and it just dl "download.htm" and when I open that its the same as before, Media player opens then timeout..

me is clueless :|

www.opera.com

works fine for me :)

opera was proven to do a little spying. I recommend mozilla firebird instead =)

I use Windows, so Opera is probably the smallest spying problem I have :D

Right click and select 'save as' to the "If your download does not start" link. Same problem here and this did it eventually.

here ya go:
ftp://freeftp.esreality.com/movies/19064-proz...e_rail.avi

a direct link...

lol great, thanks for linking it from esr, means i dont have to leech off ska's msn with 10 other ppl at the same time :)

yea quite hemostique :>

isnt this minor news?

i have had a frag like this on ztn, and i couldnt see the nmy although i had nmymodel tankjr. if someone is interested, i could make a short avi.

No. You're not famous, you haven't been intervued on ESR uncut. Who would want to see it? Turn pro, win a few tournaments and we will be interested!

This unneccacary sarcasm was sponsored by runcrantz

do so if you wish... then make sure your topic says "impoissble rail by cooller or something" and watch people download it.. else not many will i bet :) though i will :P :P

:DD

looks funny, but its cool :))

Cute.

I think that pro is even suprised that you found it :)

He is not, he actually made this avi. He says that.

ur comments are getting pretty useless sizah :)

sorry :(

what a waist of download :o

wow is THIS that famous frag?
when he explained it i tought he dropped from the Rail to down sg & immediatly railed his feet when going up the stairs :/

pointless

#1 Why is this major
#2 I hit that shot more than jason kidd beats his wife

becuase a lot of people WANTED to see it and ASKED for it since the ESWC movie...

anyone got a link to the demo?

lol what a crap movie

id call the a rail miss
and a game bug killing the player :D

shots like that happen every day, dunno what the fuss is about.

truth

well well well, that was one 1337 frag! ;)

looks like a MISS more then a hit.. this usually happens with ppl who have a bit high sensitivity or use flick shots.. ALOT OF FLICK SHOTS.. FUCKING FLICK SHOTS HAVE RUINED QUAKE 3..

hmm..

yeah flick shots..

Useless.

this shot was made during babbages i think. Thats like 2-3 years ago, during that time those shots werent done 'all the time'.

what is babbage me = quake 3 n00b

Use the Google, Luke.

- smack

What's most likely is that prozac just hit a hitbox that we couldn't see...

u think?!?!?

Where is the demo?

iya ?
