wow, arqon ain't blocking any changes anymore?

:D

If you're referring to fastrail and the health vote on ca then he never BLOCKED them. He has stated that if fastrail can be implemented without removing some network data benefit stuff it'll be done.

In fact, the thread in which the armor and health votes were proposed for the first time should be included in the cpma docs as an example of how to request changes if you want to succeed.

http://www.promode.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4090

And those retarded german ca "Why you don't care?!?" posts with ascii art spam should be included as example of how NOT to do it :)

interesting, was a bit confused about this change

Just made it before it had been a year since last release ;)

"Ignore spec votes in teamplay modes" <--lol I can't believe it took this long to get something like that put in.

Been on the todo list for years but always got downprioritised... if that's a word :=

And yes it'll surely make pickups easier. No more 5/8 player yes votes that still fail because there are 4 specs making the vote 5/12.

or even worse, the other way around with stupid spectators voting yes to fricking 27

or fuckering specs voting yes to wcp14 :E

Is this better than OSP?

has always been

lol, for sure not

over the net -> cpma,
but for low ping/lan only osp

[+]
nailed it

ONLY OSP ! RUSSIANS KILL AMERICANS AND OTHER BASTERDS!

Every morning I get up, get water from the well to wash my face put and take my carriage to work. When I get home I fix dinner on the fireplace and boot up my Pentium 90 with MS-DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.11 for a round of Quake 3. OSP only, like in the good old times.

Every day after work the first thing I do is start up my VHS player and watch some good old OSP matches recorded back in the days.

ugga agga quake3 bog bog ga OSP gog gog

Someone with the skills should photoshop a cave painting so that the osp blender would be in there :D

okey!

bog bog ga actually made me crack up :P

Is this better than Halo 3 ?

Why would you ask anyway?

Because this clearly doesn't have singleplayer.

NO WAI

they should've included pekka binds

Yeah and ruski hud.

Russkie hud is a top secret technology, eyes only.

In Soviet Russia the top secret technology eyes you.

GODDAMN I'VE BEEN REPLIED BY IX \o/

Quite a good move to mention that!
Vladimir Lenin was born today. Hello from mausoleum. ^_^

and Hitler's birthday was on Monday (he would be 120 now!), two celebrations so close together!

thats gay, bring back osp!!

OSP FTW!

OSP? WTF?

Is this version differen't than the one that's been out there for a while?

It is.

:D

altlightning 3 <3

dissageed :)
Guess I'll get used to it though

I have to modify that statement a bit. truelightning -1 is my new lover

It's really hard to play with imo :D Guess it's another thing to get used to

why do you have to get used to it?

cool new features :D
have to give it a shot at least!

ah ok, I played with it for a while in QL before they got rid of the 99999999999999999 bug, gotta say i still like it with beam on better

kk. I played a few games with it (trueligtning -1) and it's fkn hard imo :D
Guess I'm back to using 1.

yea pretty much exactly what i said

Try truelightning -1 with lightningimpact 1.
Me likes o_O

That combination actually exposed that lightningimpact needs to follow cg_nomip.

best feature!!

i returned to use 0 tbh

how long has that "cpma 1.47: soon" been in the topic in #promode, must have been more than 6 months!

At least it wasn't Duke Nukem Soon.

and when arqon is going to release challange live arena features?

gj

nice

ta for altlightning 3

does it play on Quake:Live?

:o

nice work

i would rather see teamlock, and timeout in QL :)

Who needs QL when there's Q3 CPMA? :)

well, cpma doesnt really need updates, QL does especialy TDM etc

For a small fee of $ 5 a month you will get the ability to call unlimited timeouts. If you take the premium package for only $ 8, 10* ** remove votes*** and unlimited teamlocks are included, as well as the ability to freely configure the appearance and position of your clantag****. For the casual player, the basic plan comes without a monthly fee and only 10c a timeout/lock/remove vote.



*additional remove votes are 30c / piece, (45c on weekends between 5 pm and 2 am local time)
** Unused votes cannot be transfered to the next month
*** The outcome of a vote has no influence on its cost
**** Clantag may be changed once per month free of cost. For additional changes a fee of 50c will be charged

orly nice ;)

Plus taxes and franchise fees. Not available in all areas. Void where prohibited. No C.O.D. This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

poles have premium account for timeout build in their quake :/

:D

All in due time ;)

Changelog: Added xerp settings to /players

Big deal. Everyone's using xerp anyway.

Well, yeah, they have to. 90% LG usage FTW!! amirite?

definition of "i still dont understand what xerp does"

[+] for the Challenge Quake 3 Tech Sheet!

I'm still updating it. So there's gonna be some FAQs ppl ask us.

Nice cq3 updates!!

fix: "humming" weapons could pan and crackle on stairs sometimes

thought that was down to CNQ3

nah, always noticed that when i was shaftcamping @ YA stairway on dm6...

fixing the bugs in the engine sound code so that it placed sounds absolutely correctly and didn't skip any caused the stairs bug to show up, but the behavior of sound on stairs etc was also incorrect, and had just been "hidden" by the other bugs until then. it was a "two wrongs make a right" kind of thing, so you'd never notice either of the bugs until one of them was fixed for different reasons.

are you gonna fix both bugs in ql?

are you gonna fix bug in bugfix?

chg: cg_altlightning 3 with 1.44 render system

:D

sweet changes for a dead game

I am replying to you because I care about your opinion!

chg: (1v1, 2v2, ctf, ftag) cq3 player respawn with ammo. 2 SSG, 2 RL, 20 LG, 3 GL, 3 RG

i don't quite see the point of this :o

All ammo picked up is taken into account in CQ3. So you can gain 3+7 slugs by first railgun pickup. And when you're supposed to have more weapons, the second railgun pickup gives you no more than 7 slugs.
Respawn ammo expands dropitems feature as well.

ah ok didn't think about that

.

Unfortunaly we didn't know that.
Possibly simplemega will be disabled for CQ32V2 in future releases.

I don't like altlightning 3 with 1.44 rendering system. Is it impossible to have 4 or 5 altlightnings, i.e. one with the old system that I have used and liked for many years?

Let's just make 32 different lightning graphics and call it a day. That's practical.

Would have been more practical to not change anything.

Nice argument vamp.

Just in case, can you try some alternative settings for cg_gunOffset like -8,2.7,2? Z-setting makes the beam a bit wider.

for me it makes perfect same OSP+gun 0 LG :)

Request: cg_noAmmoChange "2" allows changing to empty weapons AND disables autoswitch when ammo runs out, like cg_switchOnEmpty "0" in QL or ui_autoswitch "2" in Q4Max.

Good idea, this is what should really be the default behaviour, the current behaviour caters for nubs.

Fucks sake stop plussing ix.

o shit mate he's #1 now
this needs to stop NOW

add: gp as an alias for gameplay for callvote command
add: wr as an alias for weaponrespawn for callvote command
why did you think to change this?
not that it doesn't say me half a second now and again..

That's probably half a line of code.

Y SO SERIOUS?

it's not a change. it's an addition. you can still do it the old way if you want.

chg: cq3 RG damage (100,90,80); scaling knockback (100%-50%). ammo 7/5/25

Welcome to fucktarded mode, population 0 since no one actually plays cq3 for good reason.

agree, even excessive pros playin 1.32 :/

whos qrealka

your papa

who are you?

your mama

jus anotha frenchboi

The man behind Spiterbot.

this works with cnq3 right ?

CNQ3 only works with the CPMA mod, the CPMA mod should work with any of the standard Quake 3 source versions- quake3.exe, ioquake3.exe, cnq3.exe and the raw input versions.

Can one of you retards go mental and post something about OSP so I can destroy you in a reply and get back to the #1 spot please?

OSP IS STILL BETTER!!1!!11!

/done just to spite ix :D

well, you need to live in germany, at least..in order to start a proper flamewar :\

You've grown fat and complacent at no.1... well complacent at least.

No don't fucking make fat jokes they always get at least a few plusses fucks sake.

haha you're fat

where is the joke in that?

Didn't you notice the haha upfront?

OSP IS FAT HAHA

me has old cg_altlightning 3 backs plz..

the new one is crap.
I hate you cpma dev. team. :>

Newb :) !!

newbs :) !!

german

imo, the good ol' simpleitems icons should return... but improved. the icons from 1.46 looks so shitty :(

whats with the mega icon... with a heart? :/
seriously dumb imo.

whats good about it is that its community made, and they look great., theyre functional and they are one of the steps needed for a standalone version of CPMA. If you can't get used to a change like this, then you're way too picky and should go play Quake Live or baseQ3 where things are fixed in the way id software wanted them to be.

My point is that they're ugly compared to the standard icons, and they not more functional. It's an unnecessary change.

and spare me that 'go play ql/baseq3' bs. I welcome alot of change, that's not the issue.

theyre functional

they not more functional

Good job he didn't say that then.

... But still unnecessary changes.

...they are one of the steps needed for a standalone version of CPMA.

They're way better than the standard icons. The only debatable change, which you did mention is the heart in the mega being a bit cheesy, we may change that to a cross to match the other health items.

The one thing you pointed out I agree with, now I'm interested to see if you can make any other points or if it's just subjective whine. The new icons are sharper, every bit as clear in terms of giving information and look great as icons.

I wish 25 and 50 health bubbles were more distinguishable, but that's about the only thing I'd change.


Come to think of it, has the issue been addressed with simple icons not being visible where the normal ones are? (I think cpm4a RA was posted as an example a while back)

We may change that height issue now. Colours of the bubbles is a good point.

Funny thing is, I never used to notice about the health bubbles until starting to play new maps for the 2v2 cup. I can't actually decide if they are different at all or completely the same (with my config of course).

Yeah, same here. Obviously it's a problem resulting from gamma or overbrights being (much?) higher than default. On my settings I can hardly make out a difference either. Off the top of my head maybe the 50 could get a fatter cross than the 25, or something like that.

Don't know if it's worth the trouble though, as soon as you know our way around the map you know what it is anyway.

Makes it harder to play new maps :)

The Lightninggun, Plasmagun, Grenade launcher icons is imo better the old fashion way. The best would be if they were retouched but not redesigned.

Other than that I think the rest of changes are good, especially the health bubbles.

Better how?

I prefer the LG, GL and PG.

wat only 7.6mb ? :O

7.6 MB if you already have the 100+ MB mappack.

i hope in 1.48 fastrail will be removed again, just to get some more material from fetzbeast!

Indeed. Some highlights:

gameplay is not center of discusion
gameplay is not center of discusion
gameplay is not center of discusion
gameplay is not center of discusion
PEOPELS ARE DIFFERENT
view ARE DIFFERENT
interests ARE DIFFERENT
faforit-gameplay ARE DIFFERENT
we like to have a game where we can decide what we want!!!

we wana have open source
closed source sucks

fetzbeast.de

omg i love fetzbeast, he should have a fucking blog.

HAHAHA I forgot he spelt it faforit, dear god he's awesome.

May he rest in peace.

Not to steer this thread too off-topic but some of his spelling errors just made no sense, regardless that English clearly wasn't his native tongue. Take "Do wath the fuck you wana doo" for instance. Why is the 2nd "do" spelled doo? It's the same freaking word and even Germans spell identical words identically.

Also "favorite" is "favorit" in German. No idea where "faforit" came from, unless he actually pronounces "favorit" incorrectly in German.

dunno fetzbeast, but to me it seems he was trolling (?!)

EDIT: Okay, I had no idea. But apparently this guy writes as he thinks. Even the german words are spelled differently with every new sentence and best thing is, he calls this art: http://fetzbeast.de/bilder/bilder.html

did you click the button? :>

Hallo, !

Dein Sternzeichen ist Steinbock!

Du hast einen GroSSen Penis und GroSSen sack!

Denoch solletst du nich weinen den jeder hat einen KleiNen oder GroSSen sack!

lmao

Yeah, sometimes it's easy to think spelling mistakes like that are just a language barrier, but sometimes the answer is simple: sometimes people are just retards.

I mean he kept calling him "arquon", that's not even a real word.

sounds good.

Is the new cq3 any good ?

New map layouts does not mean new maps. It just changes the item locations.
FYI
To use the new map layouts, you need to add an exclamation before the map name.
eg.
callvote map !pro-q3dm6cq3

am i missing something, or there is no way to nomip lg imapct?

was about to mention that, add lgimpact to the nomip bitmask would be nice

There won't be impact nomip, until we create a new impact model.
Special thanks to id.

lg impact should just follow lg nomip, no need to make a new bitmask value
but as VoulCaine mentioned, blame id :/

after 10 years of game someone unsatisfied with LG impact model and you suggest to blame id for it? lol
it must be impossible to remake fucking small model and, ofcorse, id are such stupid guys that they still didnt do it

Shut up! id aren't that stupid guys like you say!
I bet you are!

are you serious? isnt it you and massman who stated that id are guys to be blamed?

We know what we were talking about. But you haven't got any idea. Settle yourself down! You have nothing to do with this.

obviously it's you who need settle yourself down

OSP HISTOUNDS FOR CQ3?

BRILLIANT.

<3

:D

phear my comeback!! im buying a new icemat!!!!1111111111

Btw mew, I wanna see your new movie out!!!

sif your problem was the icemat m8

<:

Seems to have been a fair bit of AI tweaking in this build which hasn't appeared on the changelog. I'm stuck without DSL atm and just went a fair few rounds with 70.rat on cpm3a; ai seems a lot more resourceful and less predictable, and doesn't spent the majority of it's time lava hoping at the bottom of the map, which always used to be a problem, so, intentional or not, nice work :p

cg_truelightning -1 is lush it has to be said, thank you for adding it.

cg_trueLightning can also be set to any negative fractional number. Like -0.5. So you can find a precious setting to play with com_blood 1 or cg_lightningImpact 1, corresponding to your current ping. I use it to get better control of 'lagHaxed' lightning.

Why 70 instead of 100?

Because my aim is shit :p

That's more reason to do 100 - you can't possibly outaim them, so you have to deny them armor and pick your fights carefully.

That's what I'm doing at 70 without being cess'ed to death by a fresh spawn, which at 100 they can do all too easily.

At least that's exciting. The AI is so broken without godly aim that you can literally beat it without firing a single shot and letting it blow itself up to -5.

Kinda forgot to add 21 improved map location files to the release. It'll be included in CPMA 1.48 (or perhaps stealth-added to 1.47) but if you want them now here they are:
