yah, stop wasting time with a stupid radar (which no one uses anyway) and get cracking on TF2

Valve are n00bs tbh. Nearly everyone experienced player I know, knows that it happens when you have to type retry after connected for some reason. Eric is gonna have one full inbox by the end of today lol.

Subject: radar bug



yes in fact most of the time when i either retry or alt-tab and get disconnected via time-out then retry again, the radar is gone...

to get it back i either gotta alt-tab a couple times then hit escape-r to get rid of the mouse cursor and voila the radar is back, but sometimes it doesnt work at all and its really frustrating

[Foo2rama]

well I thought that this was a bug with admin mod...



Also Ihave had more then a few instances when the radar would appear like 2 rounds later... I have actually seen it pop up from nothing 3 times... once it obscured a team mate I was watching made me jumo kinda funny...



and if you don't use radar you must be a complete idiot

[sniv]

yes the radar is the most useful thing in CS (well maybe apart from the Crosshair)



If you don't use it, learn to use it. stop ffa and start getting the team spirit. The radar can tell you where an important person is (bomb holder/vip) where the hostages you need to rescue are, where the dropped bomb is, if the person who's going to pop up around the corner is a friend, see where help is needed and where teammates got shot down...



if you don't use it, you're not being really efficient.

This is very different than the radar bug in 1.5, in my experience.



Every time I can't see my radar in 1.6, my machine kind of thinks I'm dead. I don't know how to explain it better than that. If I look at the scores screen, it will usually show me as dead (even though I'm still playing), and I'll always be able to see which enemies are dead or alive. Without fail every time it has been like that.



I've got screenshots of this situation, but no cause. If, however, they haven't noticed this (assuming it's common), perhaps looking for that problem would solve both. You know, maybe it hides the radar 'cause that part gets the "you're dead" command, and it's not supposed to draw the radar while you're dead.

These are really cool :)

Gabe Newell is in the render lol. Bottom right.

Yeah theyre pretty good.

Um... well they're alright, but they don't really 'fit' together. Like, when you have a team of all different models liek this, it looks a bit weird. If a pack was made of a whole group of each of these, they'd all be brilliant. but as a random mixture, it just loks kinda weird. And with min_models on, that's also weird because it means everyone looks exactly the same. Also, the rocket launcher on the Hezbollah just looks damn weird. Oh, and the camo is blurry, thouh that may just be my low-res.



Anyway, on their own they're good but as a whole pack they just don't look right together.

Pretty cool player packs...The only thing I don't like is Al Fatah's blue coat and pants. It's sort of ugly and make it hard to distinguish from CT. Anyways..If u are a terrist fan, u can't miss this pack.. : )

[pokyfizzle]

[MechMykl]
