:D :D Practicing the art of telefragging on a server dedicated to this art would first by fun but would also enhance one of the games lesser used skills.

This skillful art would be harnessed from map after map and game after game of quick fire 'Off The Hip' . Becoming a useful tool in all other Ut games especially the Redeemer Arena's.

If all maps were to be available, it would give an ideal opportunity to discover places not usually ventured, as already suggested by others.

:wink: Pipe

Bo said he'd give it a shot and that's goos with me but I went ahead and set up HOH for translocators only and nothing else. I didn't cjange the maps but did cut down the win amount of frags to 7. Let me know what you think so far.

Well...

Tried the low grav with Matrix and teleporter...and it sucked. Tri and Kid tested it out with me and it was WAY too hard. I turned off the low grav...makes it somewhat easier, and the Matrix Moves mutator is still active. I am not running this via Arena Match. I found a cool little mute that makes it so that as soon as your beacon touches another player or bot, you teleport instantly. The bots are VERY good at this and will chase your ass all over the map. They don't just shoot off the beacon, miss and stand there like a bunch of dummies anymore. They will actively hunt you down...lol. Something about the way the guy wrote the code makes the bots treat the teleporter more like a weapon now. Cool. I am going to leave this arena running for a day or two so that interested parties can check it out. I told Herm about the mutator and will be sending it to him for his perusal. As for me, sorry kidz...wasn't fun enough for me to tie up a server. Will probably either put up another 'deemer arena in it's place (running the Matrix mutator as well...always wanted to try it with 'deemers), or the low-grav, Matrix sniper-type arena I was dicking around with before. If you want to check out that other translocator mute before I pull the server, go to SkunkWorks Telefragorator Arena 24.112.225.5:7767

I really like it. The bots are REALLY good, but I think it has potential. Too bad you did not like it. Sigh... Oh well...

Well...

Was a grand experiment. From the logs I can see that a few of you tried it...everyone that was asking for it and a couple of others. Just wasn't enough to tie up bandwidth over. That mutator IS a good way to sharpen your telefragging skills, though. For any of you that want a copy of the mute to use for practice matches, or if Herm wants to run an improved TeleFrag server, I have uploaded the file (about 7k) to my webserver. You can download it at...

But, i haven't put on Bo's version yet. I hear it's awesome. Even on the one I'm using currently, I found the bots moved enough to make it a little challenging. I hear on Bo's they actually chase you down and such. I look forward to setting it up.

I found the telefrag mutator very disorienting. If you missed your target, you would end up where the becon went after a second or so. Bots would appear out of nowhere and nail you suddenly from the side or behind; they're such deadly shots. -You don't always get to hear the thump sound of an approaching bot. They just nail you suddenly.

I guess I'm just too old and slow for this game. :?

herm for me the one your running now is ok the bots are a bit odd with it but that just stops them getting in the way and they can nail you every now and then but as its your server its up to you what you do with it i would leave the one thats on, still just my thoughts
