Rocket jump

[old.easymeat]

Lo
Is there any one out there who can help me.
My rocket jump has stopped working.
I just seem to lose a couple of frames when I try to use it.
Thanks

I've noticed that scripted rocket jumps don't work if you're recording a demo...well mine don't anyway.

check that your g_synchronous clients is set to 0.

I tried the manual way, but I'd either blow myself to kingdom-come, or fly about 0.4 inches off the deck.

I now use a Rocket Jumping config. I have it bound to mouse3.

In case you haven't seen one (which I find incredible!), here it is (it might wrap, but it's 2 lines).

set RocketJump "set cl_pitchspeed 9999;wait;wait;+lookdown;wait;+attack;+moveup;wait;wait;-attack;-moveup;-lookdown;wait;centerview;wait;set cl_pitchspeed 140"
bind "MOUSE3" "vstr RocketJump"

you would put this in a text file, rename it to rj.cfg (or whatever) and bind a key to exec rj.cfg

The advantage to doing manual rocket jumps is that you can do more moves easilly and give you more controll as to where you end up (an example of a good place to do a low but long rj is from ra to you bases entrance on q3ctf1 when you have the flag - gets you more protected and gets there quicker), and other rocket jumps at angles eg rl platform (just by rl) to opposite ra walkway (towards the rl side) more easilly, thats jump is usually done a spinning rj, rj's are quite easy after a bit of practice there not really that hard, its just a case of timing, ive been doing them for years in qw/q2 and the timing in each game is slightly different (grenade jumps require more skill)

k

so can u script straff jumps?

on the subject of ctf1, why not try the jump right across the ra pit from end to end, its quite easy to do, just jump, turn and rj, plus u go miles

or jump from the pit over the sides of the doors

The problem has reared it's ugly head again.

When I'm in the game and I try the RJ it don't work but also my caps lock seem's to stay on.

Also when I talk all my messages are in capitals.

I'm useing a IntelliMouse Explorer.
Anyone had a prob with this mouse if so did you ever fix it.
Thanks

Hmmmn.

I have the intellimouse explorer (the ball-less one), and don't have the problems you describe.

Is it possible that you've assigned keys to the intellimouse buttons, via the mouse app, and these are being picked up by Q3?
