Sorry, this post might be the most idiotic post of the year, but still I have to ask this question:

Has anything changed in the dynamics of E+ that I cannot strafe while in air ????

Here is the scenario: q3ctf4, no multijumps, I used BFG to cross entire map, LG to bounce from "space wall", strafe to adjust and land right on the enemy flag. I could do this forever, never miss a single capture.

Now I am missing all the captures!! It gets a bit more complicated....

I noticed that while flying, if I started flying while strafing, I can still strafe in the same direction, and even come to a stop. However, I CANNOT reverse direction. If I jump without strafing, then I cannot strafe in air at all. Picture attached, hope it explains better...

This is driving me crazy !!!!! Was it like this all the time ??? If so, I cannot understand why everything feels extremely different for me for the past two weeks....

Depends on what CFG.. I know baseq3 type CFGs one is unable to strafe in the air.

depends on server setting.. very fast , there is some of them here :

/xp_physics 1 , 2 or 0 ( 2 is promode like)
/g_gravity
/g_speed
/sv_fps

again thyrant, informating is better than just posting.

i bet he is speaking about nwc or excessive4 or 5 config. where physics are 0!

physics 1 in nh.cfg do also affect weaponmovent as long u press forward and usually u press forward at weaponmovent, because normally u turn 180° after shot, because u want to look where u move.

so, with physics 1 or 2 u get just str8 movement if u dont press any direction-key. and nh has 1, as i already wrote.

with physics 2 u can still move like as with physics 1, because it works just with pressing forward, but with 2 u have also the possibilite for promode movement (if u can handle it) with left and right arrow (only, without forward, as long u press forward u cant move promode).

physics 2 have the advantage that u have a improve movement and u can still move like with physics 1 Winking

btw, nothing against nihil.cfg, i run it on c4 server Happy

I checked several servers and many have the same behavior. Excuse my ignorance, I thought it was a problem with either my local config or the e+ mod.

It seems extremely weird that I started noticing this only a few weeks ago, when I started playing like sh*t in CTF4. That's why I thought I did something to my CFG.

I was told server had always that setting. I don't know what is happening.

I dont see any difference personally, I am still able to navigate fully in air using strafing and turning to chage directions completely... And there hasnt been a new version of E+ in quite some time now (January?)

Try setting up a 1.02b server and see if its different for you there.
