You must have came from UT, or CS...
That is the way to STRAFE.. not bunny hop.
buddy hopping = jump jump jump
Strafe = move wile jumping to gain speed
edit: lol jepp!

Scripts get you 'pwned'
Best thing to do is learn it proper.

lol im sry AmIdYfReAk that im not as pr0 n 1337 as u, to answer ur question no i didnt really play ne of the other quakes, so i thought asking in a forum would be a possibility to get to know about such things, but ok .....
i just read that scripts like that rnt allowed, so its ok for me, cause i wont use it then, could also write that to me instead of writing comments like that.

Just practice, it's part of the skill you develop after playing the game for a while.
It opens up new ways to do things, which is one of the reasons Quake has such staying power. Minute to learn, lifetime to master type of thing.
Enjoy playing the game with people who are a little better than you, and you'll learn all kinds of things.

dont worry c0ker, i'm not trying to bust you're balls.. but using Scripts to do movement will only hurt you're game play..
make a server on you're local computer, password protect it not to allow anyone else in. then practice the moviement.

like i said, i just wanted to know if there r scripts out there, i can also do it without scripts as its not that hard, but a scripts would make it a lot easier, but like i also said, if its not allowed i wont start using it
thx a lot m8s, think ill start playing with ppl that r better than me and try to move like them then :icon31:

Using a straffling script will do more harm than good. You will never achive the same movement control as when doing it "manually".

The best way to learn (in Q3) is to get some tricks map like opc1 or xcm_tricks2 and someone who can show and explain all the details to you. I learnt it all on my own with only a few demos and it took me long before i understood what to do. I've managed to teach some people how to do it though, starting with circle jumps and continuing with some basic strafejumping.

So it doesn't have to take months of practice to master the basic skills, as long as you get some help.
After you know how it works, you can get used to it in normal matches. If you don't learn it you're basically frag bait because you're so slow.

do we get a ups meter in q4base?
I wanted to try some tricks and see if there are differences from q3.
this game has ragdoll physics and stuff, so it may have differences in that
ps. don't try to script it, movement on air sometimes has to be slow. cars have breaks too, etc.

ohh yea, opc1... that took me a littlebit to get going..
i had more fun in that then i did in OPC2 sadly.
FS: the movement is much slower, we are not able to get the speed. So tricks are going to reflest that.
There is more air DIRECTIONAL control, But not in the form of motion, only "steering"
its hard to make the jump pad's in the Dm17 remake, when it was easy to Overshoot them in Vq3/OSP

Yea I've noticed it's more difficult to RJ from one side to the other too.
