DCalc II

[CSN NewsBot]

Back on July 24th, 2000, we reported that the damage calculator was released. Well, it's now been updated to CS 1.5. The damage calculator calculates the, uh, damage that is done with a weapon on a specific body part at various distances. It's in PHP, so you can access it online here. You can now factor in variables:

• calcualtion of minimal-, maximal and average damage
  
  
• aiming on the different hitzones
  
  
• use of kevlar (helmet, vest)
  
  
• shooting over variable distances (0 to 999 meter, yard or feet)
  
  
• switching between hp- and damage-calculation
  
  
• setting of startvalues (0 to 100 hp/ap)
  
  
• addition of damage when shooting several times
  
  
• switching between different hitzones and weapons when shooting several
  
  times

You can even generate HTML to use on your own website. Check out Damage Calculator 2!

This calculator is lieing!

An AWP headshot does more than 350 damage, after seeing that, I won't trust this program anymore.

Funny how on the csnation stategy guide it says "The silencer decreases accuracy and damage"



But on the damage caclulator the m4al kill with 4 bullets when it has silencer and kills with 5 without a silncer...

You cant trust the stats mod for servers it lies and what does it matter it more then enoufgh damage

[-:Nighthawk:-]

Why can't you trust statsme? Think about it... every time you shoot an enemy, it tells you exactly how much damage they took, and it's always exactly reflected in their remaining HP (assuming they survive). The only downside is that statsme only tells what your bullets did, not what each bullet could do in theory. Overall, though, seeing as statsme is simply taking the damage reporting information generated by halflife and displaying it, I don't see how anyone could claim it was "lying" or something like that.



The idea of a damage calculator is awesome, imho, but it needs to be accurate, not just a rough approximation. Unfortunately, the site was down when I went there, so hopefully I'll get to play with it later. However, if the reported comments of the M4A1 doing more damage when silenced (in the damage calculator's estimations), then it's definitely got major inaccuracies. That can be verified by just goofing around on a listenserver with a friend, and shooting each other in set places at set ranges.



Granted, when it all comes down to it, chances are this doesn't really affect our playing much, but it's nice to have at least a theoretical idea of how much lead you're going to have to throw to bring an enemy down.

it was a good idea, but who really has the time to think about what gun they have, the range they are at, where they are going to shoot, what armor the other player has,.... everyone knows to aim at the chest or head, thats all we really need to know.

We need more news on VAC :) thats the only stuff worth reading i think... besides script packs / action packs.



VAC needs to hurry up with their new wallhack block modules hehe im not complaning tho just cant wait
