That's pretty cool. Can you explain what changing the (now-defunct) cvar sv_airaccelerate does to the equations?I'm not sure, but my guess is that air acceleration = sv_airaccelerate * max ground speed. In my research I found that air acceleration was 10 * max ground speed, and as I recall sv_airaccelerate is 10, so this makes sense. But it's only a guess.
Back in the day, I used to play a game called Weapons Factory (mod for Quake2 engine), which is essentially like Team Fortress capture the flag, but half the classes also had grappling hooks. If your game (tf2 mod?) brought anything like that to TF2 I'd be in heaven
With grappling hook you could build up some pretty amazing speed...and if you hit a ramp (like a 45 degree slope) with that speed you'd do a ramp slide and fly real far. Also, we had bunny hopping (hold W+A or D, and jump) that allowed you to move quicker than normal, so combined with the grappling hook you could get insane speeds....made the game really fast paced.
Here's a video of game play in Weapons Factory as the Marine class (like a tf2 soldier with grappling hook):Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The video is pretty dark, and the guy playing isn't that great with the grapple, but you can at least see it in use. There's no fancy physics, it just attaches to a surface and pulls you in a straight line...but still fun to use.
So anyway, what's the demo gonna be like? Are you just gonna run a server, have us download the map and try it out? Or can we try it out locally somehow?
nice work
and interesting, thats like nearly 100% the same as: http://www.funender.com/quake/articles/
got some different diagrams though, so nice there, but i already knew all of this... but still nice for others ^^
i think the answer is pretty easy why it maybe not works this picture should answer a bit:This certainly sounds plausible, but can anyone else confirm that they have the same problem? Some people here seem skeptical, which suggests that they can do it.
the program i used is geogebra a math program
the body always stands on the highest point he can touch in a slope but the rockets model is smaller and so it can pass a bit.
Firstly... Maybe u should go to jump_ctap_test and see if your jumps are actually a ctap first. Cause i thought i had got ctap down but i realized i didnt when i saw ctap jumpsI can't quite make it over the top of the 685 wall (the lower one). Specifically, my highest jumps are just high enough to see over the top. This is still substantially higher than a normal rocket jump, so I know it's not perfect, but it is something.
Been told many times that walljumping with W is wrong, and you see all them new jumpers try to do so. Might as well call jump1 scrubjumping. Or lazyjumps.I think (hope) people only say that because new jumpers tend to try to airstrafe with W and it doesn't work. If you understand how airstrafing works, then there is nothing any different about W (or S) then A or D. It can make certain jumps easier, like the ones demonstrated in the first video. I myself use a variant of that for long left wall jumps. I look about 135 degrees back, hold W and D, and hold M1. It's not perfect (you need to look further forwards when you start going fast), but it's very easy and works pretty well for most of these jumps. A lot easier than trying to flick 135 degrees back and forth while alternating A and D.
We'll get right on it.I think I detect a hint of sarcasm here :p
