Playaa

I don't quite want to say this knowing that it may get ppls hopes up and probably pan out to nothing...BUT...if Counter-Strike : Condition Zero uses the same demo technology (which I'm hoping it does since I once heard that CS mod users would be able to play on the same servers as CZ users, otherwise it's in reality a COMPLETELY different game instead of a HUGE upgrade to the mod)...IF that isn't changing...and IF I can get permission from Valve and Gearbox and IF it's not exceptionally horribly diffictult and IF I can get enough assistance and programmers (using .NET languages)...I MAY (stress MAY) be creating a piece of software to edit demos (or more likely just directly convert them to a video format). Now that said...I realize this will be a HUGE project and could take a long time. However, I remember back in the days of Quake 2 how popular Keygrip2 was (a program for editing and making movies out of Quake2 demos) and how everyone used it to make some pretty good movies. I think this would be a great way for me to get a foot into the gaming industry (since I've never had the chance to work on a mod), and as a programmer that is very difficult. I think everyone would use it. (especially since it will be 100% freeware) That said...no one get hopes up...because this has more chance of failing by far than succeeding. However, even if this idea fails, I will still do my best to make a montage of MCC games for the end of the season. (and yes they are HUGE!!!) I specifically have 10gigs of space set aside for CS movies now and 1 minute of a movie doing it the normal way right now (without sound) took up 900mb of space. This was in 1024 resolution at 100fps (which is actually choppy in movie standards...it's odd don't ask why)

I see no strangeness... I see a sick and twisted neo-nazi feminist regime attempting to control our planet and use men as worker-slaves who aren't allowed to attend schools or learn to read or write and are only used for manual labor and continuation of the species like some sort of livestock to be bred and beaten until used then thrown out.... or not...

y'know...I never understood this one... think about it....women want the toilet seat down, men want it up.... mean ALWAYS catch slack for leaving it up....why is it that women never catch slack for leaving it down? if we both would put it in the opposite position after we finished, then there's the possibility that the other sex would be happy...however, if someone of the same sex shows up first...they're dissatisfied.... so in reality the only answer to the problem is to leave it alone... just shows how easily us men are swayed by women.....we're WEAK!!!

yeah geekplay is dumb....all it doees to make movies is take a screenshot every second or so.....after the movie is put back together you get about 20fps AND no sound at all...... so I really want to find a demo editor for CS but I can't find one ANYWHERE!!! any help would be greatly appreciated

I couldn't tell you why Catholic churches baptise babies....baptism is something from the heart to display your love for God....a baby has no clue what's going on so it basically means absolutely nothing....

what's with these kind requests? it takes all the fun out of the got banned forum *sigh*

well played DJ for anyone who thinks DOH blew out MwR on this..........nuh-uh.... I would say EASILY 80% of the rounds ended up being a 1on1 or 2on1 situation.........EVERY round was quick and close.....DOH just took a few more of em.... I actually didn't stay for the final score once DOH took it.....but I'm positive MwR put up a great fight

actually geekplay turns demos into HUGE files that can be converted to movies (which can be edited by a movie program) so I'm still trying to find a demo editor

I found one called Geekplay but I can't get it to work yet

anyone know where I can find a good Demo editor (or any demo editor) I'd like to be able to make either movies or new demos out of other demos....so maybe make an MCC montage...

for anyone that didnt' see the match DJ won 5 1v1's to get a win and 1 2v1 (him being the 1) to get a win.....the 2v1 he killed both guys in the same salvo of fire.... we also had 31 spectators...w00t so yeah...exceptional match...well played DOH and MwR (however I think MwR vs TF was more exciting)

gotta go for DJ Premier for MVP....can't no one disagree with that eh?

anyone remember thundercats? I loved the blue bald dude this seems like it should belong in wonderland

I really like maps like Evergreen, Havanna, Icestation Z, bright, and all the others I've never played online...I try not to play these maps often though because when you play them often it takes away the fun... I've played Havanna like 5 times in a month...and I still barely know it...and it's fun that way.

steal my thunder...

happy premature b-day killer

one thing I enjoy in CS is playing maps I've never played before and have no clue what the layout is....it adds a HUGE air of realism and difficulty... teamwork takes ALOT bigger importance when you are playing on unfamiliar ground...

Rev, I know that I use tactics...I look at things ppl on MCC do during matches and do my best to emulate them when playing the bots...it's difficult at times though because you can't hide from the bots, you can barely ever sneak up on the bots...so alot of tactics I'd need against humans...are being culled out of me by playing the bots...at times I find myself running around just like the bots. as for the ping...when I used to play on Plat I had a ping of 30 - 60 (sometimes up to 100) and I never noticed a huge difference in ping from that to the lan I was constantly on (cause ppl played CS on there all the time so I got to compare often) maybe it was Half-Life's net code or just the older version of CS...but ping wasn't a big deal to me then. (at least I don't remember it being) That ping was on a partial T1 with 384kb/sec bandwidth...DSL or Cable is most likely going to be even better than that...so I'm hoping that WHEN I move to an area with DSL or Cable I'll ping fine to the community servers....hopefully the community will still be around then... as for WHEN I come back......who knows....as soon as I get a good paying job, I'll be moving into a city and making SURE I can get broadband...but that could be anywhere between a month to years...so who knows... This weekend I'll be playing at a lan with 3 guys who play CS all the time at their colleges...1 of them is the second best at his college, the other 2 run a server and play ALOT...so I'll take some screenshots maybe and see how well I do against humans who play often... thx for the vote of confidence though Rev...

yeah, PODBot is a cakewalk for me now...they're all I've played against for the last 8 months... yesterday I went 67 - 2 against them on aztec (and no I didn't use AWP against them). I've been practicing with my silented colt and the MP5. So yah they're easy. However, if I ever play against humans again I'll probably suck because I'm used to how the podbots play, which is nothing like how good humans play. They don't walk much, they don't work as a team, they don't use strategy. The only thing they have going for them is beautiful accuracy and lightning reflexes...so yeah, I can outshoot them, but any good tactical player will wipe the floor with me.

wow stinger....wow :-T

total agreement...I'm all about teamwork in this game. I love a good 5 on 5 match...1 man sniping, 2 with short to medium range rifles, 2 with fast firing SMG's or Shotguns...lots of communication and teamwork is what makes this game fun. If you don't believe me, go play a few months against PODBot and tell me how much fun it is to just own the whole map and never worry about having to work as a team or ever having someone work as a team...it's crap.

Mr. X, I used to use CS Realism 2.0 but then I formatted and could never find it again so thank you for the link... I understand that FPS is important but I dont' get anywhere near 20 fps with high texture models and absolutely no tweaking...I get a steady 60...and I only have a GeForce2 Ti 64mb card...so either you've got a HORRID card to get those kind of frames or you're just a loony. I personally would rather go 10-20 with a good looking game than 20-10, but that's coming from someone who doesn't ever play agains humans, only PODBots and those things are sooo easy to beat by now that it's kinda a pointless argument...

w00t for Rev being old !! and Fatty...don't make funny jokes...I'm not supposed to be browsing the web at work and I couldn't help but crack up at that one... so you almost got me in trouble...tsk tsk...

y'know I never understood this tactic... is the game really that competitive that you'd rather have fake looking ugly brown boxes to shoot at than reallistic looking models? I use some intense models and sweet looking ones for guns and players... I get only 60fps (with absolutely no tweaking cause I'm lazy) and the 60fps appears fine to me. I've heard the human eye has trouble differentiating anything over 30fps....so what's the point of it? someone plz 'splain
