The server in question is running through a Paintball2 client and is primarily made for the PB2 community to use. It's a little over 4 months old now. I've been trying to keep that server as free from FPS switching as humanly possible, but it's become an issue now that the Q2 community has started finding out about our server. For example, KroPP just can't live with the fact and his stubborness convinced the server owner that we need more opinions on the matter, so I'm required to get this sorted out with the Q2 community. The unwritten rules right now are as follows:1. No FPS switching, especially not between 1-60. Choose some value that's 60 or above and stick with it. (I should probably increase the limit to 100..)2. All people aware of the fact that FPS switching is advantageus, can FPS switch, and has heard that it isn't allowed on the server have to make their FPS show up on replays, if they don't, their times will be deleted.The question is: Should I have to bend over and allow FPS switching so that the Q2 community wouldn't have to change their playstyle and instead make the PB2 community change theirs to meet yours?
Lemme get this straight, you got drama going on in YOUR community (NOT QUAKE2)... so you bring it here? Wow, how generous of you.
Crate jumps are one of the most distinguishable attributes of Q2. You get rid of that, then you stand to lose a huge part of the identity of what Quake 2 movement is, and the element of fun that one can get from all the different of ways that players can traverse jump maps in Q2. By limiting what FPS people can use, you'd just end making the gameplay more dull, because you reduce the variety of jumps are possible. The bottom line is, I'd say, PB2 jump mod shouldn't even exist. The existence of such a mod sounds extremely pointless when Q2 jump mod already exists with many servers, and its gameplay is excellent.
Still a different community. If you see a problem in YOUR community, on YOUR servers, it's usually best for YOU to handle it.
Yeah, and it was a VERY rare occasion that I had to change my fps to do a ladder or something in jumpmod.... 90%+ of ladder jumps can be done with 60 fps first try if you do it right. So I really would like to here his explanation about how it gives an unfair advantage... Seems just like a drop in the bucket to me.
Whats the i.p to this server?
