How many posts do you need to get a sig? is it 20 or 50?

BLuE_ZeRO · 2002-12-18, 08:39 PM

20 for an avatar. You can have a sig whenever.

I would ASSUME you wouldn't be able to change soundpacks, due to the fact that it will come up looking like a differn't file to the server and it might apear your using it to cheat.

Example, Counterstike people sometimes replace CT with solid Green models, and T's with Solid red, so they can distinguish between them and they can't camp shadows.

Example, You might change the footstep sound to something louder so you can hear them coming better.

Example, you might tamper with lighting effects so there are no shadows

Therefore if your files aren't uniform with the server you may not be allowed to login, get kicked, or banned for cheating.
I know one of the Gaming leagues requires all files to be uniform and standard, with standard game settings (like Gravity) in order for the match to count.

Hope that Helps

It's possible to do that I know Tribes 2 ended up like that. People editing sounds for cloak pack and what not so they could hear them when they were near. Well maybe the devs could release a better soundpack for the game if the current sounds aren't any good.

the sounds from the videos seem perfectly fine

Some were very good. Others well... weren't... machine gun was one of those. Maybe it was the quality of sound of the video but it sure didn't sound very good at all.

I didn't mind it, I guess I'm not too picky when it comes to sounds.

Sounds play a big part in games. Makes the player get more into it if the sound is really good. Doom 3 is supposed to be like that.

The weapons sounds in alot of the videos DO sound like crap.. Uh, but it's prebeta guys. I'm fairly certain that much will change before release. (Say no to Floating buggies!)

The lack of sound is also important =]
