BetaPack v2.0

[CSN NewsBot]

DirtySnipez, a Retro-CS team member, has released v2.0 of his Betapack. It replaces models (player and weapon), sounds, scopes, the menu, console and font with the respective files from miscellaneous betas. He has posted some screenshots of the pack in action, so go check them out. Will we ever get our fill of CS betas?

Saw this on CSCenter :) This is a good idea, for old-timers. Personally I think they all suck...but that's my opinion, and we all know what that's worth!

Well, all those people whining about wanting the same models and skins as in the betas will finally get what they've been crying about for the past few weeks....

.....yawn

I'd like the old models back but purely for the increased FPS.



Anyone know if cl_himodels 0/1 actually does anything?

[-Dice]

I never noticed a difference. Although on 400x300 res, you don't really notice anything. (Trust me, I'm milking out all the FPS I can...12)

-Dice, I don't think your faulty mic matters as much as your awful resolution and FPS...

If this is reference to my misguided rantings before, I was upset then because I was using an 'excess' of radio commands because I couldn't use voice comm. I didn't say I sucked because of that. Regardless of whether or not I have a better computer, it still won't change the fact that I'm a terrible player...I don't do the things that 'experienced' players do, such as walking for stealth, or getting headshots from miles away. Then again, maybe a better res would help for that one.



All I have accomplished in my argument is to prove your point. Congratulations, scr0llie; hope your chipmu...err, squirreleh is okay.

The old models suck. I don't know why people like them so much. Bad (for the most part) animations, blurry textures. Not to mention they all look anorexic.

[Jsunu]

just keep the new models and add in the old ones and there you go.

-Dice, I never got 2-1 unless my team was absolutely destroying the other team till I got a new comp. Seriously, a comp really will make you god like. People will become 10x easier to kill.

[cheetarah654]

that pig guy is right.



the old skins may not be very good, but i think the animations were better, i love the death one where the guy flys back and spins before he lands. ah yes.

I acually like the old knife model a hell of a lot more than the current one. It just looked so 1337!!!!11

Just use r_drawviewmodels 0 , it may feel strange at first, but you get used to it. if you have trouble remembering what gun, just look at the bullets.

Yeah Dice, get a better computer and you can be as good as ME!!(which isn't hard). But seriously, being able to see things clearly and having a good fps helps out a lot, I'm using 600x480 for 30-40 fps on medium-sized maps and I do alright.
