You can read these custom values from console?

I somethimes attach X internal variable temporaly to... temp1, and with
console change temp1 to tweak for better adjustement.  Example:
rocket density value (too high, and will hidden stuff, too tigh and will
be unsheen and will lose quality)

If else fail, I guess you can read from a text file, and have this file open
in notepad to edit/reconnect or whatever...

imho.

RE: [hlcoders] PM_PreventMegaBunnyJumping()

2003-08-23 Thread Adrian Finol
 The 1.7 and 0.65 are just two numbers we chose after testing and tweaking
the code around.

 If you read the code, BUNNYJUMP_MAX_SPEED_FACTOR is used as a cap on how
fast you can go. We still let you bunny hop, but instead of going uncapped
like before (reaching speeds of mach 3!) we now slow you down so you can't
exceed the player's maxspeed * 1.7, which is still a little high, but we
thought it fit TFC since we didn't want to get rid of all the little tricks
you could do with the rocket launcher and grenades.

 The 0.65 is how fast we slow you down, we didn't want it to feel like
hitting wall once you went over the maxspeed.

 For reference, CS's numbers are 1.2 and 0.8.

Subject: [hlcoders] PM_PreventMegaBunnyJumping()



Can someone explain to me the reasoning behind this code (code at bottom)?

I understand this is to limit bunny hopping but why 1.7X the player max
speed? Is there a reason this was not set lower? Also why the .65 speed
reduction? 400 x 1.7 * 0.65 = 443 ???

I would like to further prevent bhoping and thought I would follow Valves
approach only with different multipliers but wonder why Valve didn't do
this originally. Was there some problem that prevented using a factor of
1.0 or 1.2 for example? Why was 1.7 chosen as the limit?

[code]

Yeah, I don't think the numbers are based on any kind of mathematical
formula.  Like Pat said, their probably just made up values that are tweaked
until you get the desired effect.

It kinda sucks having to compile, test, tweak, compile, test, tweak,

Re: [hlcoders] PM_PreventMegaBunnyJumping()

2003-08-23 Thread Pat Magnan
There's two sorts of bunny hopping.

What this code prevents is pogo sticking, jump jump jump (not touching the
ground, and also not running other movement logic - as the comments say).
That still allows what a CS player would think of as a bunny hop, jump,
land, jump in rapid succession. You'll still need to code logic to stop
that sort of jumping (using a stamina system ala DOD would work, I add
further penalties like you can't aim for beans after a jump, and if you
jump while firing an RPG or something you'll blow your .. err legs off).
At least that's always been my understanding.

You wouldn't want to clamp jumping to the normal forward speed of a player
as jumping is a gathering of kinetic/potential? energy in the
skeletal/muscular system and a release quickly to accelerate, it has to be
somewhat faster therefore than 1.0 times max speed. Why 1.7? I dunno, why
100 health? Just numbers chosen that 'felt right'? (well 100 health makes
math easy, but you know what i mean).

[hlcoders] [hlds] List server upgrade

2003-08-23 Thread Alfred Reynolds
We have taken the opportunity provided by the recent internet worms to
upgrade and relocate our list server. The IP address for the list server has
been changed (to 207.173.176.202), it may take a couple days for your ISP's
DNS servers to get this new address. The upgrade involved relocating the
subscription databases and archives to a new machine, no details should have
been lost in the move but if you have any problems then visit
http://list.valvesoftware.com and use the web interface to check your
subscription details.

If you are talking about Outlook (the mail client shipped with MS Office), I
can only recommend you get yourself a REAL mail reader.

If you are talking about Outlook Express, I can only say RTFM, or look at
the tools menu. There you will find a 'Message Rules' item. With that you
have have a quite good set of message filters.
Also, in the message menu (next to the tools menu), there is an item called
'Create rule from message...'. Guess what that does.

Next time, RTFM before you bash a nice product (if you are talking about
Outlook Express that is).

This is an Emergency!



Some idiot with my email got that stupid virus going around so now he sends
me 500 emails a day with spoofed addresses also from his computer. The good
news is they all have the same subject:



Re: That movie

Re: Your application

Re: Thank you!

Re: Details

Re: Re: MY details

Re: Your details

Re: Details

Re: Wicked screensaver



Etc.



I think there are about 7 or 8 possible subjects that this virus produces.
My question is this.. how the heck do I set subject filters in outlook? From
what I can see is that outlook is designed for idiots and has no advanced
security features.. well That's not true but I don't know how to use them. I
saw txt file "filters.txt" and that looked like a config file because it had
Commands like



Body contains "for free?"



Or..



>From contains "profits@"



These looks like nice little commands built right into a confg file BUT NO..
I later found out filters.txt was useless and had no point or meaning or
valve.. outlook doest even open or load the file. Why is it there? Does
anyone on this list know how the heck to filter stuff correctly? This would
help me a lot, I use this email account for all my hl mod stuff, its how I
communicate with my team
