get a more organized team, e--

[icer-]

they scrimmed TAU for fun during their match time, but because of eminence's recent sponsor acquisition, along with roster movearounds, they didn't have enough on their roster to play.

[FatalTouch XeoN]

e-- merged with eagle 5.

I thought Rival had gone inactive? Hrm.

[abel]

bLaCKat: I read on their site they were talking with CAL admins about it.

wtf is wrong with rival now?

[FLeK0]

i wanna see a better DoP & nerve, and GX vs. 3D and f^ vs. 3D matches :)

[Serious Sam]

What about shutdown?



Rival is most likely disbanding, real life problems.

[bkrose120]

Didn't 3D win their last match by 21-3 also? 3D=own>ALL

[orion]

Okay first off, that draw animation pisses me off no end.

Secondly, the modelling seems a bit off. I didn't notice on earlier compiles, but there seems to be some small holes in the model which show up horribly on de_aztec and de_dust (the maps I tested this on). Also during the reload and breifly during the shoot animations, you can blatantly seem through part of the back of the slide. I don't know if that's because of the animations or the model, but either way it's piss-annoying. The model is also too small, Colt 1911's are bigger then that, unless the guy holding it is a 7'4" body builder with arms like trees and hands the size of dinner plates.

The skin(s) is(are) 'alright'. The silver skin by foxmike suffers from some texture misalignment - this may also be on the normal skin too, but I didn't notice it on the normal skin and it shows up badly on the silver skin. The gold skin is okay, but doesn't look very gold-ish - it's not shiney enough and is too orange/brown/dark. Also, the Face/Off style 'Castor Troy' personal logo on the handle is, yet again, the wrong bloody way round. I don't know why the hell *nobody* ever gets it right, but the logo on almost every model is the wrong way round. I swear to god, if anyone ever comes along with a model that has the logo the right way round, I'll give it a straight 10/10 just for that. It faces backwards people, not bloody forwards. This is something that really pisses me off in models and skins, as it's something very obvious that nobody should ever get wrong, yet everyone seemingly does.



Overall this model is a downgrade from the original compile. The animations are frankly bland for the most part and annoying for the rest, the origins are odd, the model itself seems to be missing some faces and is a tad too small, and there's some texture mislignment if you decide you don't like the original skin. So overall this model is still okay, but the older compile is better.
