Don't mean to bump the thread, but seriously do have a quesiton on Q3 models

Someone said too big of a model makes it easy to miss hitbox. So, why is that? Isn't it the bigger the model, the more visible it appears so that it's easier to target? Thus, follow this logic, Orbb would be the best model that it is the smallest amongst all. Difficult to see, plus its annoying noises

The hitbox is exactly the same no matter what model you use. Thus, a larger model would extend beyond the hitbox giving unhittable parts of the model. A smaller model would be able to be hit 'outside' it's model area not really accomplishing anything since near misses on the model would result in hits on the hitbox.

Does that make sense?

yes.

Some more information on this subject from the Unlagged FAQ.

Yes, sir.

So what would be the best model for getting most of the hitbox and not extending too much also?

If I remember correctly, models about the size of sarge fill it up pretty decently. Tank jr. I believe sticks out a bit.

that paperclip model would do well.

Lol.

fuck i gotta buy q3 again
can't believe i uninstalled after losing the cd =\

aw dude, i hate that. One time i reformatted and lost my config. I had spent hours working that thing into perfection and had to write that shit out again

that's the joke - i've still got like 4 different versions of my configs, and a couple cd's worth of old demos... just no q3.

Bones (that's the hologram one).

Bitterman, Default... don't care what anyone says he was the hero in Q2... start singleplayer and look at the pod you dropped in, at the bottom it says Bitterman
