Hi Guys

Eventually got on Mike server at 10.45pm only to find none of my keys working. Came back on after resetting the keys to default with a few tweaks , Everything seemed fine until I had to move the mouse up and down while playing. Nothing bloody happened . Thought I might be able to stick it out for a game or 2, only finding the recoil on the gun pointing my xhairs into the air. Came off re-installed CS, with a few tweaks . Now everytime I enter an online game the map starts downloading, same thing on 2 other maps dust/2/assualt. They all work on Lan though. So its back to square 1, after a game of DOD.

I will try to get it sorted for Sunday.

Cheers

Neal

LOL @ Norm

Steve if/when you get ADSL or ISDN you may have to find a new excuse for getting shot Sometimes (just sometimes mind) its 'cos the other guy got there first

Pings of 50ish on a good night from 64K isdn - I'm happy

Dizzy

hehehe thx for the complements.

sorry about the slaughter guys I've played cs since about beta 6 and q1 & 2 ... but most importantly I have an extreemely low ping and tweeked netcode settings and 100fps (makes a HUGE difference).
I play cs for at least 2hours everyday and practice tactics with my team (One of the top in the uk).

I am quite happy to post some tips for you. 1) There is nowhere thats to dark to see (i.e. adjust ur gama)

If you want I'll post my config file (Shows all my binds + my grenade lob scripts etc)

And yes I hear the cry of cheat more than I care the think ( I have to aviod publics now) I barely hold my on some of the top servers (ie. 4K ukla etc).

I enjoyed the game
Diz.

Dizzy

oh yeh I just read the other posts

hehe belive it or not I do get "lag" not a high ping but loss. I guilty of crying lag once to often though I am on 512K btLagtogether (ADSL) and get 40loss from time to time :/ you notice by the fact I stand still n dont shoot.

oh yeh couple of other tips..
If you have and mp5 / pistol always keep moving (straff around the player you are attacking and aim for the head always) Thats why when I'm running I'll run with the pistol out sometimes (apart from being faster)

If you have a rifle (m4 or ak) always stop and crouch at anything over extreem close range as this DRAMATICALLY increases acuracy and fire in 2-3 round bursts. at extreemly close rage jump like a kangeroo and full spray

soz If this is sounds patronising

Diz.

HHxx

Thanks for the advice Dizzy, don't suppose you can just use a knife

Matt, thanks for that good luck for NTL, I have heard about their "excellent" customer service before, just hope I don't have to use them I take it you live in Northampton according to your profile, if so then you are about 20 mins away from me, fancy a Lan game sometime

Nimbus

Northampton is ont far from me either. LAN game sounds soooper! I assume we are talking Ethernet here... My laptop has CS (for training purposes only ). If I reduce the sreen res I get a pretty good show..

HHxx

Nice one Nimbus

Both my laptops are a pile of turd, both 400mhz p2. So I would prefer my workstation, dual p3 1ghz 1 g ram etc.... but too big

We'll have to get together, but maybe after Christmas as things for me are getting outta control

HHxx, Yep I'm in Northampton

Could definately be up for a lan game or 2 Probably get a couple of other lads in as well.

Dizzy, whats your cl_forwardspeed set at? cause you were out running me with a pistol when I was running with a knife

Matt

Dizzy

hehe ahhh the magic of being an lpb

GET OUT OF THE WAY LARDY

Norman D. Landing

Dizzy,

It'd be nice to see your config actually and what scripts you use. I've been thinking about using some buy scripts but not bothered yet, I find that I can buy fairly fast anyway if my ping is low enough.

Any chance you could list a few well admin'ed, no cheater, high standard servers ? I'd like to see how I'd fare in a server full of your standard.

I'll have you know it's water retension!

Didn't think being a lpb affected how fast you could move though?

Matt

Steve Perriam

deano : wot a thing to suggest.....the other guy gets there 1st never !

yeah anything u can post diz be good.

ta for those bits damaja.

i'll be lagging around mikes tonite from 8.

hmmm dont u lot have any work to do !! major postings today !

Dizzy

ok chappies and chappets
put whats below into a mystuff.cfg in ur cs directory and then modify (create if needs be) your autoexec.cfg and type "exec mystuff.cfg"

Bare in mind I have a top end video card (geforce 2 gts) and 30-40 ping. so use what u think u may need. I'm also left handed so u may use the asdw to move.

My only bits I use to buy stuff is the 'n' key and that only buys all the extra stuff I need not the primary / secondary weapon as I vairy that depending on situation.

The Grenlobber.. to use press n hold the key you've bound and it will select and pull back the gren when u realease it will through the gren and reslect your weapon.

Couch jump.. usefull for geting onto stuff.. click n hold the right button and u will jumpin the air and pull ur knees up at the same time (reducing your target size too). release and you will stand up.

Walk toggle.. reamain silent untill pressed again. I use it all the time.

Questions or queeries just post
This is my config
