 Posted: Wed May 17, 2006 1:22 am Post subject: Tips for UT2k4, Sound, M0vement, binds etc |
 |
|
Some dude said he used Shield as Nightvision to see better in dark places.. wtf...
| Quote: |
Dude.. seriously... you ever heard of Brightness / Gamma settings?
Those work better then a shieldgun as a nightscope, rofl.
Anyway I saw this thread and as i've been playing ONS since day 1 and UT for the last few years I thought I might see if I can tip u peepz.
so here comes my guide to pwnage:
- Set ur Weapons to HIDDEN or centered.
Why?
Well if u put it to left or right, u have a disadvantage when shooting around corners. If ur weapon is left you can't shoot around a corner if the wall is on the left 2.. So setting the weapon to Hidden or centered also centers the aim a bit, since it's actually really fucking OFF in UT and the only patch I found for it was a UT2k3 patch which doesn't work.
- When using shockcombo's U can spam several balls. If an enemy is in a hall to the side and he sees 1 pass he might think it's save and jump in, getting right infront of ur 2nd Core which u can then blow up! (works with Pro's and noobs Very Happy)
- When fighting in a hallway shoot several cores at different sides of the enemy, he won't know which one you'll blow and u can choose the one he jumps 2 Very Happy
- Use mini to make people nervous and have them panic Wink Also when ur full health and mini people, lots of people think ur low on HP, so they also take a mini or makes them over confident which gives u the perfect chance to load rox or combo them Wink
- When in combat always make sure they chase u. Nothing more lovely then having someone chase u round a corner and flak / combo/ rox them in tha face Very Happy
- When being Chased by several guys, turn around after 2 or 3 turns, load rox and jump back (time it right though). Often they don't expect u to attack instead of flee and u can own them with the power of surprise Wink
- Bind a button to switch to shieldgun altfire when held, and back to last weapon when done!*
- Bind a button to shieldjump!*
- Use Goop and shieldgunshield to jump higher on sneaky ledges or on the balcony of the secret rooftop in Goliath Smile
- Use Goop to put down a 'minefield' to cut an enemy off from going a certain direction.
- learn to dodge backwards Wink
- Download Mcrosshairs they own (black outside, colored inside so ALWAYS visible even with Bright or dark colored backgrounds)
- Practice full games with 1 weapon to get more intimately with it Very Happy
- Download DodgePro Mod (DPM Pro) and play the levels to learn lots of movement/dodge tricks and get real good Very Happy
- With Manta always shoot infront of people on the ground so when they fire an avril they blow up in their face Very Happy
- when people spam cores, shoot them with shock often when u keep shooting you can combo them in the face with their own core Wink
- Set RollOff to 0.250000 in ur Ini to hear more Very Happy
- Use a headset with stereo 3D hardware sound to hear where people are real well Razz
- Crouch to avoid making walking sounds
- Don't walk thru water on maps like rankin to avoide people hearing u.
- Dodge from walls when falling down in liftshafts to keep from going up again or to keep from activating the lift.
- Activate lifts and get off to make sounds to confuse the enemy Wink
- Go play on maps alone to find all the sneaky hiding spots and such Wink
Here's some Ini settings I got and the * explanations:
User.ini
Aliases[21]=(Command="SwitchWeapon 1 | Button bFire | Fire | OnRelease Jump | onrelease SwitchToLastWeapon",Alias="ShieldJump")
A=ShieldJump
G=use | setsensitivity 1.08
Mouse4=setsensitivity 2.75
Q=SwitchWeapon 9 | PipedSwitchWeapon 0
R=SwitchWeapon 7 | PipedSwitchWeapon 6
W=PipedSwitchWeapon 5 | PipedSwitchWeapon 4
*CapsLock=switchweapon 1 | altfire | onrelease switchtolastweapon
(is shieldgun bind to get shieldfast when held down)
MouseWheelDown=PipedSwitchWeapon 6 | PipedSwitchWeapon 7
MouseWheelUp=PipedSwitchWeapon 4 | PipedSwitchWeapon 9
G=use | setsensitivity 1.08
UT2004.ini
[ALAudio.ALAudioSubsystem]
UseEAX=False
Use3DSound=True
UseDefaultDriver=True (this setting can be tried, False = more fps, but on some systems, Enabled can mean better sound)
CompatibilityMode=False
MaxEAXVersion=255
UsePrecache=True
ReverseStereo=False
Channels=32
MusicVolume=0.000000
AmbientVolume=0.200000 (this setting can only be changed in ini, not ingame, lots of Pro's got it turned off, but some lift sounds etc also are Ambient and can give away a players position soooo...)
SoundVolume=0.420000
VoiceVolume=4.000000
VolumeScaleRec=0.100000
DopplerFactor=1.000000
Rolloff=0.250000
TimeBetweenHWUpdates=15.000000

LowQualitySound=False
UseVoIP=False
UseVAD=False
UseSpatializedVoice=False
SpatializedVoiceRadius=100000.000000
EnhancedDenoiser=False
LocalZOffset=0.000000
[D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]
DetailTextures=True
HighDetailActors=True
SuperHighDetailActors=True
UsePrecaching=True
UseTrilinear=True
AdapterNumber=-1
ReduceMouseLag=False (can cost lots of FPS and often only worsens the problem, better turned off.. at own risk though Very Happy)
UseTripleBuffering=False (useless unless u have lots of tearing)
UseHardwareTL=True
UseHardwareVS=True
UseCubemaps=True
DesiredRefreshRate=60 (useless setting.. tbfh)
UseCompressedLightmaps=True
UseStencil=False
Use16bit=False
Use16bitTextures=False
MaxPixelShaderVersion=255
UseVSync=False (use only if u have good reason to restrict fps)
LevelOfAnisotropy=1 (set to 1 for best performance, 0 doesn'te exist)
DetailTexMipBias=0.000000 (both MipBias settings can be used to make textures more 'egal' meaning more simple and plane colored without 'texture' can help to make u see players better or to increase FPS)
DefaultTexMipBias=-0.500000 (see above)
UseNPatches=False
TesselationFactor=1.000000
CheckForOverflow=False
AvoidHitches=False
OverrideDesktopRefreshRate=False
ReportUnusedTextures=False
DecompressTextures=False
TerrainLOD=0
SkyboxHack=False
LowQualityTerrain=False
Well that's all for now..
I've been doing a lot of ini modding and stuff in my UT time so pm me for more answers if need be.
- ps: Use higher sense in manta for better manueverability. (bind normal sense to 'use' so it gets set normal the second u exit the vehicle Very Happy) |

Ik heb dat getest met dat links/centeren van je wapen. Het scheelt echt fukking weinig. Het verschil is nog kleiner dan een rocket... En ik ben zo gewend aan dat pistooltje rechts, onder andere voor reload tijd van shock en LG (de animatie) dat is onwijs slecht speel met center of hidden :S
Ook tijdens TAM hoef je niet te onthouden welk wapen je ook alweer vasthield....  |

For the people who also play other game types like onslaught: DONT CAHNGE THE ROLLOFF
It make it impossible to hear from wich direction a vehicle / explosion is coming, and how close it is. |

Dude just try it, as soon as u hear an explosion u hear it as hard as if u were standing next to it, that way its impossible to hear how close by it is etc.
The worst problem is hearing incoming vehicles, I can hear the sound of a manta even though its 100 meters away, but as soon as I hear it I immediately recognize how far away it is, and if I hear him coming (the sound of the manta becomes louder) I would know when to turn around and shock him.
So, rolloff sucks donkey dick. |

www.google.com
Or do you think people save their links for over 3 years in case someone randomly joins the forums and asks for it?

ff een oud topic opborrelen
ik vond dit wel interessant voor wanneer je TDM of DM speelt:
Basically you have a 6th player from your clan who is not playing in the match visit this site. He sits on voice and listens to his teammates when they announce a powerup being taken. Once its taken, the 6th player resets the timer, and lets his team know when it will be popping up again. You can also use a personal timer when a team timer is not available. When you pick up an item, you can press a key that will start a timer that you are running in the background. The timer will announce when the item is about to appear, and you can go take it. You can download this free one: http://madhookup.com/data/timer.zip
