  1. Time to bribe some monkeys into doing laundry.
  2. The real limit is 3.40282347e+38F, but you'll never be able to see the difference past whatever the viewcull is (if not less). So yeah, 10000 seems like a safe bet. Also: my understanding of r_lodCurveError is that it functions similarly to r_lodbias, but patches have their own LODs based on removing vertices, I think?
  3. I had a bit of a thought on this. Since some people are interested in having the JKHub master server but don't want OpenJK/can't use the All Seeing Eye, perhaps I could hex-edit the jamp.exe or jamp.bin for people to be able to connect to the JKH master server. I would ultimately want to release these for people to use, but I don't know how to figure piracy into this (since I suppose distributing EXEs would be like...illegal, y'know). @@Raz0r - san, @@ensiform - san, @@Xycaleth - san, give me guidance. (also, I'll totally hex-edit cracked EXEs for $$$, under the premise that you don't distribute it)
  4. An inventory is a tough system to try and implement in this game (I'd know, considering I've done it before. ). Fortunately it's MUCH easier to do in SP than in MP. Take Futuza's advice though - get a solid grip on coding, especially learning more about structures (structs/classes) and I'll give you some info/attack plans to go by.
  5. No, you need the Visual Studio 2013 runtime. Download it from Microsoft's site.
  6. I've notified the moderators and they'll get the file online shortly. I ordered a virus scan on the file before it was to be approved because I hastily assumed it was something other than a .dat file, and subsequently the staff member who scanned the file forgot to actually perform the approval process. Sorry about that.
  7. Link?
  8. I considered adding some RPG-ish features to JK2:HD in a vein similar to BioShock. After doing some more research though, I decided that having these RPG elements would detriment the game's design. Specifically, the elements I considered adding (like some vending machines and a money system) were panned by critics, and I also felt that they may have made the game too easy.
  9. What would be neat is if someone set up some kind of web tool that fixes all the shaders in a PK3 and spits out a fixed PK3 to download (unless someone already plugged it into the tool, and it will return a stored file) ideally this would be either a Java applet or a Pylons application, but to my knowledge JKH hosted sites only operate with php/mysql
  10. If I remember correctly, # actually makes the load times WORSE
  11. # shouldn't be allowed because COM_Parse uses C-like syntax. Wouldn't really make sense to support it.
  12. Nothing regarding the blocks were changed. Check for yourself using Git blame.
  13. Edit your post, and to the right there are options to add a poll.
  14. Update on the master server situation. IT @ Raven is aware of the outages and are working on the situation. No further information specified.
  15. I suspect that Quake 3 is handled by id, not Raven. Quake 4, I'm not so sure. The last I heard from James Monroe, they were still rebooting the server. I'll send him a personal message about it.
  16. Firefox. I think I can trust an independent, nonprofit organization (Mozilla) more than a big corporation anyway.
  17. Is this some kind of meme or something? Some chick said this sorta thing to me and I had no idea what she was talking about, lol Anyway, welcome OP.
  18. I'm not even aware of any mods that don't have the master server switch, except for server-side mods (which ASE works with), Makermod Client (maybe @@spior still maintains his proxy mod and has a client version?) and JA+ (lol.) Something you can try though, and DISCLAIMER: I haven't tried this, but you might try replacing the JA+ UI DLL in the PK3 with ASE's, as JA+ (to my knowledge) doesn't have many UI features?
  19. Anyway, back on topic here: Were you able to find things okay, OP?
  20. Remember when IE8 was a thing, and it didn't receive a major update in 10 years, holding back some of the more important advancements in JavaScript and CSS. I remember that. My issues with Chrome are strictly related to how it handles security: - It will prevent access to sites using SHA1 HTTPS in the next 10 years, which can be frustrating on internal networks and older websites. - It complains about downloading some files on SourceForge and other sites with the same message as it would with certain types of viruses. This does nothing but spread ignorance. - It complains when a file isn't commonly downloaded, making you click through menus in order to keep the file. - It saves personal details and passwords automatically if the user ignores the (very small) prompt asking if they want to save them. - NO data wiping feature like Firefox has (Can wipe history, cookies, bookmarks etc for 5 minutes, two hours or 24 hours) - There was a big scandal a year or two where companies bought out popular add-on companies and released updates which contained viruses and adware. Since Chrome auto-updates add-ons without prompting the user, and they don't check add-on updates for viruses, millions of computers became infected for (what appeared to be) no reason. - There's many fraudulent mirrors for Chrome which are actively advertised at the top of Google searches for it, ironically enough. - Google states in their TOU for Chrome add-on/app development that they reserve the right to alter (read: Sabotage) apps after they are released on Google Play (or whatever it's called, I forget) I don't support Google development really at all, as their software to me seems impractical and politically motivated. I like to have my software 'just work', without someone else telling me how I should be browsing, thanks. Same goes with Gmail, which fucks with my school email and won't let me read it unless I merge two accounts. Google ought to just stick to search engines, maps, and as a neutral source of information, like code base hosting. They aren't that great at much else to me, really.
  21. MB2 site has security issues with NOD32 which are still unresolved as far as I know. Also, Chrome is trash, so there's that.
  22. Change your debug settings. You should be running from your debug compilation, not moving files around. Right click on the EXE project and hit "Set as startup project" Right click on it again, this time go to Properties (or "Project Properties") In Debug, set the Working Directory to be the same as the output directory. There should be an option somewhere for program arguments. Add: +set fs_basepath "<YOUR_JA_GAMEDATA_PATH>" +set fs_homepath "." +set fs_game "<YOUR_FS_GAME>" It should load your DLLs first, but if you're having problems, change the fs_basepath to fs_cdpath (unless that was removed from OJK)
  23. When it comes to nvidia cards, the higher-order number determines the year, while the lower order number determines the quality of the card. A GEFORCE 260 is older than a 310, but a lot more powerful.
