Title: 1.1 Match
Post by: Machine Medic on February 15, 2014, 10:11:53 PM
I found a temporary server on 1.1 today with three rather polite players claiming to be from the Russia area and I decided to play a match with them, even though the connection had some pretty bad lag issues.

I got up to around 35 almost entirely on my own (3:1), before an ally joined.  I guess I've still got it after all these months, lol.

I can only wonder if the Loki I played against was the same Loki on these forums though.  I'm curious to know.

Yeah, I figured that guy probably wasn't the same person... I've seen at least 5 different people using the name 'Loki' in various different colors, clan tags and prefixes over the years.

I don't even have Tremulous anymore, sadly. I might install it someday though.

EDIT: Facility you're in Unknown clan as well? Got some friends in there.

Was playing against .:|InternalCrocodileAligator or however it's  spelled just now... he rivals our old Scrim leader, .:Contra|^|LuckyCharms.

He certainly wasn't gentle in  reminding me of the fact that the Construction Kit has been, and probably always will be my most powerful weapon.  (Dedicated basebuilders FTW)   ;D

EDIT:

That reminds me of the ragemaker comic I created for the time I 1v2'd DB clan and won by a long shot in 2011...

Yes, especially when two of the cockiest, most arrogant people in 1.1 challenge me to 1v2 them and they both loose without scoring a single point.

Trololo.

FK clan needs to stop camping.

Seriously.

(Screenshot was taken during a practice 3v3 with 3FKs on each side.)

I got thrown out for telling them to get out of their bases.   :P

Are you telling me that there's still some trace of human life on 1.1?

Why do you play with such low resolution?
If you're on the old shitty client, use r_customwidth/height and if it's tremfusion use r_customheight/width..

Also, if you want to visit me, I usually check the masterlist these days for people on acidtu.be's servers on GPP (I don't really join AA or Xservers anymore, and lagged european servers because of my 450+ msec latency)
Feel free to drop by, cuboid has modified physics. The asian servers are hosted in Japan so europeans and americans will start complaining about 180+ latency (it seems they can't handle any more than 150 it seems, yet I play with 350+ on other servers these days)

I'll have you know there is absolutely nothing wrong with my resolution, but the fact that I play on a laptop screen, combined with the fact that I somehow still use Photobucket for image hosting leads to small image sizes on this forum.

Solution:
1. Set your resolution to your desired one. I play on a laptop with a "standard" 1366x768 resolution (I play windowed 980x580 though), my previous laptop had 1366x??? which ended up with a weird ratio of 250something to 180something... I also play with 20-30 fps on average which is why I don't go to high bp servers. Besides I never really liked high bp games, although wonderland had 400 restricted bp with instabuild, allowing me to come up with a new 'ninja building' technique. Literally, fighting as a ckit by building temporary buildables in front of the enemy while dodging them.

2. Bind a key to /screenshotjpeg or /screenshot if you prefer targa formats. You'll find the screenshot in your application data directory
Code: [Select]
Win XP: c:/docs and settings/user/appdata/tremulous/base/screenshots OR
c:/docs and settings/user/localsettings/appdata/tremulous/base/screenshots (using vanilla 1.1 client)
Mac: HDD/User/Library/App support/tremulous/base/screenshots
Linux: Something like mac without the library and appsupport folders, not sure where exactly the data is kept but it should be in user/???/tremulous/base/screenshots

3. Upload the screenshot, from what I see from here (http://goinggreenandsavinggreen.blogspot.com.au/2011/01/how-to-get-photobucket-to-stop-resizing.html) it seems very troublesome. Hit the attachments button instead when you post images,  it seems imageshack has now been absorbed into commerciality shitness so I use dropbox personally but that's all temporary as it doesn't last forever.

ViruS, MachineMedic plays for years that way and you're going to give him a tip? A solution? Don't be ridiculous.

>CG_rotaxFPS_BOOST 1

20-30 FPS on the IDTech3 engine is pretty damn bad.  Most people I talk to idle between 200 and 800.
