    Red shaft is lame.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 273 ✭✭Scarab


    Replace ure bolt2.mdl and bolt3.mdl with lazer.mdl,as von says its lame and it wont make you shaft any better. u could just colour ure ordinary shaft red, so it wouldnt be a straight line but would still be red.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 205 ✭✭Nicky


    it does make your shaft better, much clearer whats happening


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 880 ✭✭✭Von


    Having a red shaft IS lame cos its easier to stay on a target with it. The regular shaft requires more skill cos its harder to use right.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,339 ✭✭✭✭LoLth


    That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever!

    If it is lame to use something that helps your gameplaying without it actually being cheating, then almost everyone who plays quake is lame! Don't use the maouse, it helps you to turn! Don't use proxies, they make team games easier by enabling accurate communication.

    dammit! What kind of Lamer uses a RL??? Really skillful players only use the single shotgun, and the best use only the axe!

    So calling something lame because it helps someone to play is wrong! Whether or not it could be considered cheating or not... Hacked maps = cheating, bots = cheating

    waterhack? Some would say that that was cheating but a lot of people used it (do people still use this?). Skins coloured to give better camoflage (sp??)? could that not be construed as an illegal aid ?

    So, is the red shaft cheating?

    no the red shaft isnt cheating, anymore than allbright skins, modified nails or any of that sh!te, just that von is one of those die hard "use original paks no matter what" type of a lad. Everyone else has their quake modified in some way or other, whether they deny it or not.
    Personally I have red nails, no gibs, no torches, used to have a white stripe down along the packs in my last quake folder, must get that back.

    Zero, cheating scumbag.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 273 ✭✭Scarab


    Zero hacked backpaks can be detected by quizmo, if u care smile.gif. No torches is essential for any one with a **** computer as it eats up the fps. I use the normal shaft, i just made it yellow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 745 ✭✭✭SeP


    i prefer the original shaft! its not hard to use or anythin and looks better than the ****e red/white ones smile.gif

    FPS stuff helps ppl with **** connects too

    and why yellow scarab??

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,399 ✭✭✭Zero


    Red shaft isnt lame, its the same as any hacked model that ppl use, except like nicky says it makes it a lot clearer and easier to use. Personally I dont like the red shaft and cant use it, but I made that one you have Guinness, and it's ****e coz the length is wrong, so ure as well off gettin the original back.

    Alrighty,

    I myself have no problem with people using modified PAKs, as I can't really stop them anyway. smile.gif I don't use any form of modified PAK, map or skin, I don't even use any proxy other than Cheapo. But hey, thats just me. I suppose I'm a bit like Von (Not an ugly old fart, just a bit purist.)

    You can always spot the fullbrights, when ure waiting in some dark corner on DM3 and some guy casually takes you out.

    BTW, I still think GLQauke is by far the biggest advantage you can have in multiplayer Quake, anyone agree?

    Hail To The King, Baby.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 488 ✭✭Sonic


    ya gl is definitly an advantage , i have seen some players turn textures foo in gl and the players stick out a mile , aswell even @ 40 fps it seems smooth in gl whereas i find i need 70+ to get the same "feel" in software


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 488 ✭✭Sonic


    off even!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    Yep GL is definately and advantage but not as much as ping, bloody cheating sub 100 ping ba$tards. Oh and PL you have no skill if you play with anything less than 15% pl. And ISDN'ers all use bots and can't get it up....and errr

    Looking at this use of different mdls I was wondering if someone would be willing to send me a write up on all the possible hack/enhancements there are for the help seciton of Quake.ie. I'd greatly appreciate it because I'm trying to come up with some essential stuff for newbies and I think we've already agreed we don't want to leave them out in the cold. I need ye to do this because I'm a saddo like Von and I don't use any pack hacks smile.gif

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 488 ✭✭Sonic


    well i used use ronans red shaft , it woz like a laser. @ the start i found it helped my aim but now i prefer the original shaft. also i hear some people use untextured maps so u stick out like all the tits and big arses on guinnessmans comp. all of us down here dont have any lamps or flames etc to help our fps etc.
