hmm... Why?

Let me just say one thing: It's QUAKE, who gives a fuck if you get kicked from a server? Stop sticking up for newbies.

OK skippy, your right and I'm wrong. I'm done here.

baker since I play runequake a lot I get weirded out a lot, when it changes your FOV for one of the effects. I just bind a key to "exec config.cfg;exec autoexec.cfg". If theres a better way i'd love to know it. sorry, i dont know what a cvar is

A cvar is a "client variable" like fov 90 or anything that saves a value.

Yeah, I hate techno-speak myself, but that's what it's called.

Slot said he is going to remove FOV stuff from RuneQuake on the next version, but still a server shouldn't be able to change that, nor your name or unbind your keys.

Getting kicked from a server without warning says we don't want you here, to a new or returning player, this pushes them away and they are less likely to stick around. So sure, continue that mindset, and gradually have a smaller and smaller playerbase.

Any kick without a verbal notification is bad adminning (especially since it just says he is dropped, so he doesn't even know it is punishment and shouldn't think it is, because people often have connection problems).

I'm glad Phenom isnt playing on Rage anymore.. I hated when he played.. And you whine more then anyone on the quakeone forums. Spoon just gets mad when his luck runs out and takes it out on other people.. I know how it is Spoon... Don't worry.. I get you... Stung: You bitch on any level you play on.. It's not just DM3.. So i don't get your logic on changing levels.. DM3 is a strategic map.. You have to dodge errent rockets.. Its all about skill man.. You need eyes behind your head.. And dodge those rockets.. I've got superior skill when it comes to this so i don't expect you to understand.

EXTRA NOTE: Most of this post is total sarcasm.

I suggest you that commands:

config load/save from a cfg/ folder
cfg_save filename.cfg
cfg_load filename.cfg

setting readonly flag to a cvar:
readonly fov

you may need special code for that one, because some cvars area hidding functions behind or are special handled. ( netnames, etc)

so can someone translate Tei's post for me please? is there a way to prevent FOV changing? i dont really know enuf about coding to understand what he's saying

[Zop]

You can make a button to fix changes, like doing:
bind p "exec autoexec.cfg; wait; exec config.cfg"
(I doubt the wait is neccessary for exec, but you won't notice either way)

I think Tei was talking about editing the quake program itself, which should be directed to r00k or LordHavoc...

[Baker]

is there a way to prevent FOV changing?

Not yet. But soon.

Yeah, that was all me who kicked and eventually banned you. It's not permanent, but when people CC into even games(and on to the team that's winning 3-0) I kick them without warning. Getting kicked is not a very big deal in my opinion since all you have to do is reconnect. Then you came back and did the same exact thing. I didn't know however that you hadn't been to rage before. I thought you were just one of the many people who try to be dicks and mess up even teams. I'll make more of an effort to communicate next time. Also, if you're not sure about how many are on each team just type "teams" in the console and it will list the number of people on each team including which players are on which team...

Dunno guys.. seems there is more then one guilty party more or less. You have an Inconsiderate Jamoch of an Admin and a Once Again Newbie both trying to learn at the same time. A warning would have been nice.. But he admited that he should have so this is really a dead issue.

Why?

[Phenom]

Because the point is made

[foq]

Yes, the point is made. If we closed every thread with a point that has already been made, 99% of threads would be closed.

[Phenom]

Yes, the point is made. If we closed every thread with a point that has already been made, 99% of threads would be closed.

You got a point there! Lets go kick Zop's ass!

OBJECTION!!!

What are you trying to hide?! I WANT THE TRUTH!
