Re: [hlds_linux] CS feature request to prevent ghosting
i have a team in pro-gaming and yes the 5sec death-cam can be very helpful. you don't even have to talk, the guy next to you just takes a quick look. so boring as it may seem at first, mp_fadetoblack 1 is a MUST in competition. and i have more good news for you. been playin' with cs1.6beta over steam and tried to make a server.. well.. it has a option to DISABLE death-cam (yep that 5sec camera linking you to the killer). don't know the cvar, but it will surely be there in 1.6. :)) gg valve. and i have another suggestion, if i may: the radar in the corner is not visible at all on bright maps.. verry annoying.. maybe you can add a 3rd fuction - 1st) normaly on (as in 1.5), 2nd) off and 3rd) on with a black background (will greatly improve things) - very usefull on clan matches since radar is used a lot. /mike On Sun, Jul 27, 2003 at 06:57:09AM -0400, Jupiter wrote: Jan Brunner wrote: I don't like the fov showing the position of the killer but removing it removes only a small part of the information available to the killed player. He can still hear what's going on and is able to see for a short time (it's sometimes possible to count the enemy players). Hi Jan, my point was not to emphasize the fov switching itself, but the fact that ghosting is possible in the brief period after death. There's really no need for this delay -- while it makes the pub games better for new players (since they can see from where they died), experienced players need no such brain candy. I for one think, that ghosting (if possible without the fov switch or even with faster fade to black) should be allowed at LANs. One reason is that the rules would be easier and no one could blaim the non-English-speaking teams of having an advantage. Another one is that CS is a game and communication is a good thing so I think it's strange to disallow talking just because one is dead for a minute. It seems that Europeans really love their ghosting. ;) I think Euro teams are just used to playing with it, but North American CS generally frowns on such behavior; the concept of giving privileged information is viewed as a form of cheating (it's privileged because only the dead would know it). I agree with you that we need simple and fair rules across the various CS LAN tournaments, but I strongly disagree that we should let people ghost just to keep things simple. Precisely as you say, because of non-English-speaking teams having a perceived advantage, we should therefore level the playing field to the best of our abilities. The feature request is a small but significant step toward preventing ghosting. Whether or not a tournament allows talking while dead, we can cut away at the problem by removing the extra information the dead player sees. Clearly a player can blurt out B rush in his language (or even in code) after he dies, but if our feature request is granted, he won't be able to say wait, it's a fake because he saw them run back. In other words, the less information a dead player sees the better. Seems like this should be common sense. It would be better for the worldwide competition if the CPL changed this rule. I guess they won't do it because they say they are setting the standards but think about it: Europe still has more good CS teams than America. I disagree. Imagine if players in chess tournaments were allowed to ghost -- Kasparov may not see an esoteric but analyzed variation on the board, yet if one of his coaches does, should he be able to yell it out so Gary can take advantage? Any tournament that allowed such behavior would quickly lose credibility. I believe CPL is working to ensure the integrity of the game, and I believe other tournaments will follow suit. And what's this about Europe having more good CS teams than America? :) If by America you mean all the Americas, including the US, Canada, Central, and South America -- well, you better reassess that statement. Take away two well-known Swedish clans and there isn't much to brag about. ;) Most European online leagues are played with mp_forcechasecam 2 and I think most American ones, too. I like that, because it's much less boring for the dead players and sometimes the dead players tell alive players what's going on at another part of the map and coordinate teamplay. I'm a strong proponent of mp_forcechasecam 2 rather than mp_fadetoblack 1, because like you said, it's quite boring to watch a black screen. But dead players shouldn't be coordinating teamplay! When you die you're out. The game takes on a new dimension when the primary strat caller dies, since now the players are forced to think for themselves. Isn't a crucial 1v1 situation more interesting when the players' wits and not just their aim determine the outcome? I'd much rather watch a player think on his feet for his tactics, rather than know he has Vesslan whispering what to do in his ear.

This is based on RH 7.2 or higher. The stable kernel I have been using for last the few months is the 2.4.21-rc1-jam1 kernel/patch set. This runs solid, but one can never be completely satisfied. Just for backround, I ICMP ping my servers in Jersey at 50-55ms. In game ping on p3 boxes with 14+ players is 70-100. In game ping on xeon boxes with 14+ is around 70-75..more stable on the newer hardware. This was without pingboost enabled, and on the 2.4.21 kernel. So the first 2.5.X kernel we got up was 2.5.74-mm3. In game latency was reduced solidly by 10ms. 55-65 is now my average ping on the Xeon boxes...with 14+ players present. The players living in the area are no longer 20-30ms but 15-20ms in game. On another box, we put up 2.5.75-mm1 kernel. With the same results, though the .74 kernel, ftp seems to go defunct, but not on the .75 kernel. I have just rebooted to 2.6.0-test1-mm2 kernel and will see how well this performs. This kernel replaces the 2.5.74 kernel, leaving 2.5.75-mm1 still in place. If anyone else is playing with kernels on redhat, I would be interested in hearing your results. I will reply my results with this kernel after a week of testing. dan -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
