Right now, I think all we really need is a new "heavier" low grav mutator and not getting disconnected every time the map changes. I really think that would do it.

DEV, thats the norm. Vlad has the Mutator he was working on need to have a Server Side version. Load it up and try in Single Player. Feels just like 2k4.

Gamespy and EPIC have issues LOL.

Anyway, in the process of installing XP Pro on new rig. Damn, that puppy is quiet. BTW: posted a log over at Sharkies to keep the MOD updated. Not much there at the moment. Have a few new cables due in.

edit: found them, had to turn Pure off but for whatever reason I can't connect to the BuA server

I don't really feel the need to have dodge-jump like in 2k4. That I can easily get over. Just want the UT3 gameplay but a heavier lowgarv. Right now, it just feels like dodging in LG will get me killed.

There are Lograv IG mods that are better than the default LG IG. VP has one and there are several others that fell alot like 2k4. I have been playing RG IG CTF lately and have had alot of fun. Would love to see the LGIG community come back but dont think it will.
BTW Vlad when is the next official patch due out for UT3?

Well, there's also the problem with crosshairs being inaccurate... which really needs to be addressed... because dead on hits at close range that miss can be very frustrating.

I dont see how any ini tweak can address a problem with the game/server software.
And I am hanging in there, need to get a DVD in the mail so someone can make us some LGIG maps too! :D

The aim is off by a bit intentionally, it seems. Don't ask me why that is, guess it's to preserve the "natural feel" of the weapon being slightly to the left or right of your viewpoint when you show it.

You seem to be talking of something else though, since this is not a problem with the game/server software at all, but a configuration thing that can be changed.

Here, I found the tweak in a sticky:

Ultron said:
And now we look into the UTGame.ini.
[...]
bCenteredWeaponFire=True

The game default is to slightly offset where you aim, compared to where the crosshairs of your HUD are, to either the left or to the right of it, depending on what hand you use. If you set WeaponHandPreference to HAND_Right then you will aim to the right of the crosshair, for example. So I set the bCenteredWeaponFire to True to fire at the center of your crosshair by default, regardless of which hand you choose, or if you use Hidden.

Good luck, and glad to have helped if I did :)

This, just like the "landing shake", seemed rather odd to me too; why would they make you feel less in control than you have to in order to play the game like you're used to? And why don't they show these settings in the menu? Those really are issues :(

In all honesty, I think they were trying to make it more realistic... but they should've given us the option to change it.

It's done. So hopefully tommorrow, 2/20/08. It's going to be the beta 4 with a text file change. They’re giving Ryan a chance to get the Linux DS done for a simultaneous release, and Midway QA time to prep their customer service people.
