some Q2 issues
« Reply #15 on: May 30, 2004, 04:54:56 AM »
The XP mouse sensitivity problem I'm referring to has nothing to do with the game itself.  It's the OS itself.  XP has a mouse acceleration curve that's on even when you don't have acceleration toggled in the mouse applet.  Obviously that's going to impact some more than others, depending upon mouse speed settings, type of mouse, drivers, etc.  Using the link I posted above will set the mouse acceleration to normal vs. "ON" unless you toggle it on in the mouse applet.

What ! :shock:   That's no good. If I had a dollar for eveytime I heard the enemy railgun "humm", I'd be rich. It's saved my ass many times, otherwise I would have walked right into them.

I don't think any changes he's made to his Q2 environment would change anyone else's, like the railgun hum, right?  That's just a local thing in his game and can't impact whether we hear a hum or not, or at least I hope!

The railgun humms all the time, as long as it's the weapon selected. You can hear your enemy within a certain distance. Get a good pair of headphones!  8)

Yeah, first you have to be real close to the railgun to hear it humm, like within the distance of a small room. It's only usefull in 1v1 or if you are away from the main action, as the sounds of close battle will cover it up.

Oneshot use to tell me that he could hear me running (not jumping)all the way across the map, through several walls.  :roll:

I haven't had any issues with maps changes, yet. I hear the pingbot causes a client issue on some custom map changes.  :wink:

Ya only I cant hear the rail anymore, but thats ok I hear footsteps very clearly :).And the graphics upgrade more than makes up for any loss.I like the bright colors and clear sounds...I tried to go back to regular graphics, but it just looked so old!

No your not the only one aj. I usually crash with an "different version map" error. So i delete my current map, redownload it from xquake just for it to do it again. Sometimes i can get in...lots of times i can and have to redownload it like 5 times. koth1 is the one i have the most trouble with....dont really know why

Re: Railgun hum.  I always hear it.  The BFG hums, too, only at a lower volume.  In either case, it's a dead giveaway that someone's closeby.
But then again, having a rail closeby or not doesn't really matter, lol.  You get hit, chances are you're dead.

re:  Map errors...the only one I've had a problem with is the Koth1 map.
So, since others have it, too, there's obviously some issue.  I'm not sure if Koth1 is still in rotation (as long as I've played Q2, I've never paid attention to either map names nor numbers!).  I only know that Koth1 is the one that says something like "Map different than version on server" or some such.
