Proquake server + CRMOD kicking people for spamming

[Magnus]

I meant about the chat gag.

RE DirectQ ver of GLPro.

I was into GFX programming when GL was in its prime and Direct3D first came out. I was all for OpenGL to win and was angry at MS for trying to push another format down our throats. It meant more work for developers, etc.. and D3D at the time was just SHIT.

Today though, 10 years later, DirectX is really where its at.

Windows7 is such a great platform. Pair it up with DirectX and you have a winning combo.

I still just want a version of DirectQ that I don't have to bandaid though to play DM. The last version fixed the eyes but broke the glows.

Magnus, there is a DirectProQuake. I think I obtained it via downloading one of the ProQuake versions and it had GL/Direct versions both.... I'm trying it out today.

Hmm yeah. Baker is in charge of proquake now right? I don't know if it's possible, but perhaps he could take a look and see if it's possible to have sv_cullentities set to 1, but dynamically turn off so that the players who are actively using pent/quad will report their locations. I have no idea if that's possible or not, but perhaps something similar could be included in a future proquake server release.

It is possible to do. And Anti-Wallhack could still protect against cheating even for a player with pent/quad ... just expand the bounds for such a player to about double so that the glow can appear through walls, but if he is further from the wall than that the normal anti-wallhack deal applies.

I'll add this to the to-do list.

/Note: MM2 messages shouldn't count as "chat spam" in quite the same way as MM1 messages, obviously. Something for future thought.

[Tremor]

Sweet deal, Baker!

[Magnus]

Tremor, I have no idea how you forgot this whole conversation when I brought it up on the server..

The recovery rate is fine.

The initial detect rate is still too sensitive.

It's very obvious in 2v2 games where you really use spam to convey teamwork strategies.

[turtlevan]

yes it mutes your team messages after about 8 or 9 quick binds


needs to be like 15 or 20 before muting

[Tremor]

Okay, I'll take care of it today.

I agree with Baker
If a team wants to reduce its own bandwidth by discussing strategy they only hurt themselves. Gagging mm2 is absurd.
What I would like to see is muting of mm1 during a match by the blowhards
who think the server is a fkn chat server! It lags everyone and is a huge distraction by spectators who are not even interested in the match.
kick the spectators who mm1 and gag them for mm2 not the players.
