question bout strafejumping

Post by fiLownzU »

Hey guys. I'm brand new at this whole trickjumping thing and really quake altogether. I've had the game for about 2 months because my comp can't handle q4. I was just wondering, is it possible to change directions in midair? Like to be able to fly around corners and keep going? I was watching a video and this guy captured a flag in like 7 seconds cuz he was weaving through the map like a friggin squirrel. maybe point me in the right direction of a tutorial. also, I'm having trouble playing back demos. it says illegible server message when i click on the demo i want to play and says "cl_parseservermessage" thnx in advance

in vq3 physics no you can't. You were probably watching cpma movie.

This is actually one reason why i prefer vq3 - it respects the laws of physics more - cpma acts as if you had jet thrusters which allow you to change your velocity (directional component) much more fluidly.

Now don't get me wrong - there's a deep skill to cpma movement, and u'll find that cpma players excel in vq3 movement.

Do you have the latest Q3 Point release 1.32 and the latest version of CPMA (which 1.32 as well) with all maps?
