That antilag fix which makes it target framerate independent sounds a bit complicated to me.

Do I get it right that until now, the tolerance antilag would offer you was dependent on the framerate of the person you were shooting at? So if you were shooting at someone who got 125 fps you had less tolerance to hit him than with someone at 76 fps and therefore it was harder to hit him?

Even I found that one little hard to wrap my head around (antilag).

The posts are very much alike the past few bugfixes

Just a note, didn't find the original post, but anyway nice to include the cvar_backupx.cfg file to show forcibly changed settings.

Bani,

can you please clarify the effect of the antilag fix you did in this version so that dumb people like me fully understand it and what actually changes now in gameplay.

it makes antilag work better

Define "better," and better than what?
I hope you're not comparing it to purple chalk!

better than etmain antilag

duh

Removing the framerate dependence of antilag will no doubt make it more consistent and 'reliable'.

Everything is running smoothly on my end, though there still is some occurance of lag when hitboxes of two or more players collide with the other.

Also: I noticed exiting ETPro after a /devmap session, when booting ETPro again I find my setup resetting to absolute default (e.g., name ETPlayer). Further test shows this effect occuring whenever a client had started a /devmap or /map in the previous game.

Condition under which the above was performed:

*extracting the recent .dll files from ETPro3_0_0.pk3.
*fs_game ETPro
*g_gametype 2

sv_pure set to 1 or 0 doesn't have much relevance in this context.
