HI

What's the cl_timenudge command for?

It's quite simple: it accelerates your projectile... for example if you have a ping of 50 with - - > real ms20 when you fire without wxecuting the command your projectile shoots with a delay of 6millisecs, but with cl_timenudge -20 your projectile will shoot at 3 millisecs (believe me, that helps a lot). On the other hand, this command is extensively used in the OSP mod, even though it has a -20 allowed limit, not because it's a cheat (as some e+ players insist), but because it creates a Graphic Lag, for example -21,-25,-30... etc.

How do I measure my ms?

cg_lagometer 1
cg_drawping 1

Reccomended config for users with 20 to 30 ping

-adsl over 512k

rate 25000 (bandwidth)
snaps 40
Cl_maxpackets 100
cl_timenudge -20

If you need more info just ask me XD

i was playing with a guy who used a -20 timenudge and i didnt notice any difference playing against him. But someone else was calling him a cheater-noob

people get called names for anything. youll learn to ignore, or if you have rcon, to "stimulate" different thinking

phoeey..reading hqs and nihils post i have to go find out what timenudge just precisely does now...wish there was a quake encyclopaedia with all relevant information...gah guess ill have to rely on old man google again

re-read it all. its all the most important stuff, plus links to detailed pages (nihils post).

i dont think google will help you more...

i did...read that entire unlagged backward calculation except the code part..interesting..it would be interesting to compare the way unlagged works with the way laghax works in cpma...but first i gotta find out how laghax works lololol...gib!

*clears throat* Wonko cg_laghax is ArQon's re-implementation of cg_smoothclients, not timenudge. ArQon also re-implemented cl_timenudge too though (cg_nudge). According to ArQon, Quake 3's implementations are somewhat broken, thus the need for him to implement his own methods for CPMA.

But yeah, I'd like to understand cg_laghax too. There's obviously a lot more to it than there is with cg_smoothclients.
