and there was 1 or 2 people bunny hopping *cough* beavykins

I'll play if you do an old school rcon war! It used to rock back in the day when 5 BW admins would be on a CS server, each one changing the map 5 seconds after they'd joined

I think you might be misinterpreting bunny hopping. I know Beavy and he never does that, but it wouldnt make any difference to the game anyway. I suspect your confusing jumping with bunnying to be honest.

As far as getting killed instantly, I think thats more you than the game mate, otherwise you'd be doing it to other people

Having said that, if you didnt like it, thats up to you There is a learning curve, I cant deny that!

When I used to play it was on a mostly sniper less server so I did last a bit longer.

Anyways, deleted my config.cfg file and that didn't fix that setting you were on about so not a scooby why it's being awkward.

aah no i know that. but thats the prob with the die-wait-for-round-reset.. get killed in 10 secs, wait 3 mins, repeat, dont get a chance to get any better , and i know its my end, just depressing

as for hopping. few people, less than 10 feet away, spending most of the time in the air, while being shot at, counts as bunny hopping as far as im concerned.


jumping: getting over obstacles
bunny hopping: jumping to avoid incoming projectiles

Its all just practice

Beavy jumps a bit, but "bunnyhopping" in HL games normally means scripted jumping that makes you move faster than normal running will allow - just jumping isnt normally frowned apon so much

The jumping actually makes people easier to hit once you get the hang of it

We have had a few people online lately who seem to be beginners, the trick is not to get depressed with it and just stick at it, eventually you'll start to get kills, it might take a while with the likes of beavykins though as hes a pretty good player

just a thought, some files dont like being fiddled with
had a similair thing with DODS configs, in the end, add the line to the .cfg and make it read only worked

The thing is, the thing that makes CS continue to be played while all the other games come and go -for example I'd been playing CS a long time when CoD1 came out, and Im still playing it now when CoD4 is around, and no doubt when CoD8 is out CS will still be played, and still be more popular- is that it rewards you when you win, by giving you more money.

Every other FPS game I can think of is spawn run about die spawn run about die ad infinitum. One of the main tricks to playing CS is Stay Alive! This can take some getting used if you normally play TDM games, I know when I went from Quake 2 to CS it took me ages.

I suprised the zblock on the server allows you to run interp 0.050, I would have thought it would change it or kick you, quite wierd really. I shouldnt worry TOO much about it though

other thing to bear in mind, if you hard fix it server side, it overwrites. if server is set to something like 5-10, and someone has a 3, then it will force them to 5 regardless

[throdgrain]

Yeah zblock should only allow .010 or 020 though, yet 2 people (one being yourself) it showed as 0.050. All of us KEA lot had .010

Oh well, I only mentioned it because you had that wierd ping Im not going to ban people because OMG RAYTES!!! someone has 50 updaterate instead of 100. It will make little difference. Quite often you see admins banning people for low rates when the peretrator of this terrible crime is on 0-8 and is clearly gaining nothing from them.

Yeah the ping thing was because my previous ISP despite giving me a 4mb connection or some such shite gave me a 200 ping to go with it which meant I got auto kicked from I server I contributed some cash to. Some guy told me to type something when I was tipsy (usual) and it set it to that number. Anyways, that bit was fixed when I changed my config file back to default so that's back to normal. New ISP has good pings anyways.

Will put the interp thingy into my cfg file and see how it gets on.

Edit: 0-8 sounds about right too
