AntiTCC i have running inbetween lite and normal mode

i dont have the ingame checks running when some1 dies, so AntiTCC should be pretty transparent during a game unless a few ppl join at the same time half way thru a map

since i put the server up i think its been pretty flawless for nearly all the players who've played on it. the odd hiccup now and again is just something you have to accept as the internet isnt a 100% perfect place.

but i'll monitor the server as always to see if its something i can tweak/fix etc.

:up:

thx for checking. maybe it was just stormy internet weather.

They're not even harder once you bind a second jumpbutton somewhere on your mouse.

it will not split the DDOM players because nearly all came from UT2003 where boostdoge was common knowledge.

in opposite to TDM or DM it makes the game more interesting and adds the fun of smooth and elegant movement. it's silent and needs more alertness from the defenders. it's easy to kill a shieldjumper who wants to get to the cp but someone who comes in with a boostdoge and shield on has a real chance to save the point and deliver some damage after that which is not so frustrating:cry:.

that boostdodge is easy is not a bad thing because we are all no 1337 players, just average :noob:fraggers:heart:.

it can be argued against it but the expirience of many games before and after boostdodge was removed, tells me that the games where faster and more actionpacked. not more or less points where made but it was a feeling of free movement that was important. we had some sessions where we didn't play ddom but tried to make nice but senseless jumps like working the way from the bottom of suntemple up to the highest roof without going the normal ways.

it would be an nice idea to make something like a saturday afternoon boostdoge DDOM to see how it works out and if its not just a nostalgic motion, but i still miss it more than fast weaponswitching.or the nerfed goo which i could easly forget.

NEAU! :up:

(I think people should get over the loss of the boostjump... shieldjumping is cooler anyway and well... I just don't want DDOM to be further seperated from the rest of UT2k4 than it already is)

Guyver1 why don't you switch off anti tcc . i mean i don't mind when nuky is cheating and i think we can handle cheaters when kickvote is on. the server lagged today in a fancy way. i mean 2 flak direct hits with granades 3 spam flak hit and 3 seconds of my not so bad linkgun should kill an unshielded player with ease.

The direct hits thing is a known flaw in the UT netcode... I wrote a mutator that makes it look just a little bit better, maybe I should re-release it.

No idea what causes that. :bulb:

the other strange thing is that half of the games are not in the stats.

Guyver1 plz fix!!!
