Thoughts / Improvements to CAx Mod

[Bam]

There is already a team_cam_lock option on CAx so that you can only track your teammates nobody else. I just need to make those configurable options not be reset between warped maps.

This is good having a thread about different improvements or bugs, because without feedback you don't know what to fix on the mod.

Don't be scared away by these deficiencies yet, CAx has come a long way already to becoming a great mod. Hell, that's amazing bomber got 16 players going on the server!

Yellow, I think I have an idea on fixing the color-change to allow 2 or more players to join even though the teams are already balanced.

If you did that in any of the CA+ servers, you'd be keel-hauled!

Ya! Hence a fix should be implemented. But I was referring more to those who may use some sort of teamspeak program during a match... chasecaming the enemy and reporting to your teammates their locations... blah...

(report location of enemy to living team members).

Another issue that has come up with several users is a problem with the chasecam after being killed. Most of the time it works just fine but on occasion (for me) it'll lock into eye-cam and won't be able to change to the other mode. (others have reported, also happened to me) Sometimes you'll be locked on a single player and you can't change to a new player. I'd say 85% of the time chasecam works as expected, just those crazy 15% of times it doesn't.

Also, not sure if was mentioned here or not, but it'd be nice if you could only chasecam your own team. Not that it's that big an issue, but if you were having a serious match in the mod, dead team members have the ability to ghost (report location of enemy to living team members).

I wish I could modify my rocket laucher to have enough power to take out Shub in 1 shot (rquake single).

Rook told me that it's very possible to change the momentum for any weapon, The increased momentum of the shotgun is very possible

The axe has very little place in Quake.

Wacky weapon damage changes has no place in CA (aside from axe)

Correct! Elevator goes up! Elevator goes down! Elevator goes up! Elevator goes down!

I added custom shirt colors support WITH anti-crossdressing code just for you c*s, also custom shirts were oldskool CA, i guess it could be votable or admin setting.

I love you more than Bank loves you!

Shotgun damage shouldnt be changed from original Quake, though, I am a purist.

What about shotgun knockback? I think that's a great idea.

btw, your gonna break that putton if u play with it so much!

2. Prevent players from changing their shirt color

Are people complaining about changing shirt colours? I've been wearing the white shirt since I've played CA and no one has told me to take it off. Some even complimented me with it on as it reminded them of the good ol days.

maybe you should just disallow xdressing?

And a brief reminder that 8 out of 9 quakers want the modified shotgun back in bomber. Whoever voted against it (1/9 of the voters) didn't speak up in the thread.

There were some strong points made in this thread.

I have my settings set to cut FPS off at 60. My FPS is always 60 using both Qrack and GLPRO. I don't use any custom textures or any of that crap, just the basic default installs of Qrack and GLPRO.
