DarkPlaces and Rocket Jump Script

[naustic]

I'm having an issue with my rocket jump script in Darkplaces that worked flawlessly in Qrack and Proquake. Specifically, the script failed to force_centerview after the jump. It also feels "weird" doing it manually.

alias +rj "cl_pitchspeed 20000;impulse 7;+lookdown;wait;wait;wait;wait;-lookdown;cl_pitchspeed 150;+jump;+attack"
alias -rj "-attack;-jump;force_centerview"

Also, my ping appears to be ~30+ higher when I'm using DarkPlaces. Any ideas?

i just tried your script myself, in an April 8 2011 build, and it works fine for me... It centerviews fine. Try putting these commands in your autoexec if you haven't already...

in_pitch_min -69.60937118530272726999999999999999999

in_pitch_max 79.453121185302727269999999999999999999

that stops you from looking too far up or too far down. might be your problem.

as far as the 'extra ping' goes, I think that is just DP reporting your ping higher than what it actually is. with other engines i ping 50-60 to shmack, with DP i ping around 90-100 yet it feels the same.

Thanks, Monster. I actually have those values for in_pitch_min and _max in my autoexec.cfg. No luck.

It sounds like the ping issue is generic and is not isolated to just my machine. As you had mentioned, it still feels the same, so I'm not too concern about it.

alias +launch "cl_pitchspeed 1000; impulse 7; +lookdown; long_wait; +jump; wait; +attack; +forward"

alias -launch "-lookdown; -jump; -attack; cl_pitchspeed 100; centerview; -forward"

alias long_wait "wait; wait; wait; wait"

Here is a few I used back when

alias fjump "impulse 7;cl_yawspeed 17190;-forward;+back;+left;+jump;+attack;wait;-attack;-jump;-left;-back;+forward;+right;wait;-right;-forward"



lias rjump1 "cl_pitchspeed 32767 ; impulse 7 ; +lookdown ; +jump ; +attack ; wait ; -attack ; -jump ; -lookdown ; force_centerview ; cl_pitchspeed 150"



alias rjump2 "cl_pitchspeed 20000 ; +lookdown ; wait ; -lookdown ; +jump ; ; wait ; -jump ; impulse 7 ; +attack ; wait ; -attack ; force_centerview ; cl_pitchspeed 150"


//Rocket Jump #1

//bind SPACE +rj

//alias +rj "rj1;rj2"

//alias -rj "-lookdown;centerview;-moveup"


They are all different jumps for whatever crazy thing I was trying some jump backwards even.

Thanks, Bluntz. I've tried your scripts, and unfortunately, it still does not work properly. The +launch script launches you up, but fails to centerview.
