request for competition mod
changing the speed of the notify (dead messages etc) like they are in rtcw, imo it's pretty annoying when you don't see (immidiatly)how many people you've killed with your l33t grenade

We set up a shrub server and moved the kill messages to the chat area, but the peeps didn't like it so we'll be moving it back.
Why is the delay there though for k/d messages and obejctive notifications!?? It takes like 3 seconds for it to appear, but comes out immediately in the console. Why is it like that?
Is it possible to change the HUD at all, or is that all client-side? I'd love to see the k/d messages moved to up the top as per RtCW, and have the chat in the same spot as RtCW as well.
The chat area as it is at the moment is so small and hard to read, and it's very easy to miss chat. :/

the delay is entirely clientside. they probably rate-limited it because the # of lines for the popup messages is so limited (3 or so, iirc).O2.iceman wrote:We set up a shrub server and moved the kill messages to the chat area, but the peeps didn't like it so we'll be moving it back.

moving them to the top would require a clientside mod. with HTTP downloads in ET, that sucks far less than it used to, so a clientside mod is actually a reasonable thing now.
That's true, I can't believe it took until the umpteenth iteration of the Q3 engine before clients get a reasonable error for a missing file.bani wrote:moving them to the top would require a clientside mod. with HTTP downloads in ET, that sucks far less than it used to, so a clientside mod is actually a reasonable thing now.
The old "invalid pk3 files" was bad enough, not to mention the "server uses protocol 58".
I mean how hard could it be for them to say "The server is running an updated version, you need to download a client patch from blahblah".
