GGTharos Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 That this little gem rests in the server config: DisableCombatViews = false -- F5 & Ctrl-F5 And this ... -- HUD RGB color HUDColor = {} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iSu_27] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iSu_33] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iSu_25] = {255, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iSu_39] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29K] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iA_10] = {0, 255, 0} HUDColor[PlaneIndex.iF_15] = {0, 255, 0} ... And as if that wasn't enough, you can apparently also do neat things like change the color of the smoke to suit your tastes ;) And for those of us who run servers, it appears that we get to choose which files get pushed to the client. ED< can you guys confirm any of this? :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda

bflagg Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 forgive my stupidity, but what does all this mean? Thanks, Brett
Skywall23 Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 forgive my stupidity, but what does all this mean? Means that the F5 view may be disabled on the servers. The F5 view, is a padlock view, but external.
ZoomBoy27 Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 forgive my stupidity, but what does all this mean? The F5 view gives you an external view and allows you to see your closest threat including orientation. This F5 view is considered a cheating view and servers blocked ALL external views to prevent cheating. But if disabled on a server, then servers can have those pretty external views without too much worry about view-cheating.

And for those of us who run servers, it appears that we get to choose which files get pushed to the client. Missions? Skins? Mods? Server already pushes missions (this is what happens when you join the game) ... mods, in some way, yes. I sure hope no one TRIES to push skins - they should be slapped if they do. A) they're likely too big and will require several minutes PER PLAYER to DL B) If another person likes the skin they're using NOW, they likely won't be too happy with you [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
