[rasz_pl]

What do you think?

Dots fade and shrink
Full dots for buildables, Gradient bigger ones for units
Red=Human Building, Blue=Human, Green=Alien, Light green=Alien building

Neat.  How come you're always standing with a human building really close to your right?

Er, that's the recording icon.

nice screenies.

how did you get the alien crosshair?

[PwNz!]

nice screenies.

how did you get the alien crosshair?

If i was you i wouldnt ask that question. Many griefers roam this forum telling people off of what is right.

[Basilisco]

Not bad, guess it's helpful

About the porn-ad host, either put a warning or change.

"Many Sexy Girls to meet now!" is not a porn ad
Plus this host doesnt care what you upload, speed is excelent, and no stupid clicking and waiting like on rapidshare.

anyway this radar is a mix of Teiman's (fading), Risujin's (new blip) and My (shrinking, proper range) code.

rasz, you fucking fail. We will not see you in the weekend events. Cheapo.

Im gonna cry, no, really!
no nading the base by "your ppl", kicking me off the server because Im better than your ass with MD, so SAD

[Lava Croft]

Cheapo.

[Stof]

Keep the thread on topic guys. This is about a new alien radar, not alien crosshairs God knows we've had enouth of the subject.

[Lava Croft]

I dont give a shit. I've had quite enough of all you cheating faggots. Claiming to be good players, while all you are is disabled, since you need help.

[Voidling]

Nice work! I guess this could mean end of dretchs TK'ed from behind by charging tyrants.

[techhead]

I think i kinda like the one from balance mod better, but thats my personal preference.

[Risujin]

damnit!

... dretch punt is a better solution.. though really if a dretch is in a position to be killed by a tyrant it should be. On FF servers it only bothers me if i've spent my hard earn evos and I try to move but some alien figures going THROUGH me is better than letting me move.

thats not the point, the point is you are an Alien with uber alien senses that let you see mental images of electric/electromagnetic forces thru walls on a great distances (like sharks), that should mean that you are able to sense your own units and buildings as well

[DASPRiD]

Who's that noobish and needs a crosshair for aliens?

[Dissapointed and Banned]

No one NEEDS them, there just real helpful in judging a variety of things such as Goon Spike Arc and such. However I don't use them mainly cause I can't be bothered to fiddle around with PAKs and I'm used to the main UAI

Not dissapointed, nor am I banned, I really need a name change

[Dj_Pong]

Really nice Job Rasz_pl! Looks good on the screenshots
One question: what is the BIG RED dot left on the screen?

@lava: Jealous? Ah! Wait! Just kick/ban some people from SatGNU to get rid of your anger

[rasz_pl]

One question: what is the BIG RED dot left on the screen?

am I the only one with seta cl_autoRecordDemo "1"?

[Odin]

Er, don't you already get a crosshair when you're an Adv. Goon?

[Undeference]

am I the only one with seta cl_autoRecordDemo "1"?

I think so.

[beckers]

I don't consider alien crosshairs as cheating because the .menu files are text-files and so I consider changing .menu-files the same way as binds or even changing the original keysettings. Look at Q3A: you can't change huds unless you recompile the source code. That's cheating, changing text-files like .cfg and .menu isn't.

Stop the useless chat about alien crosshairs, everyone knows what the usage of them means, you are only trying to get more posts on your counter.

Most players say that they wish for teammates visible in alien radar, usually after accidental teamkills.

So: Where can people get this radar modification, can it be used on pure servers and what do devs think about adding this to next version?

yep, thats why I made it

1 ill upload the patch to bugzilla
2 no, needs a mod/new trem version on the server
3 no idea, I still dont understand how the svn works in Tremulous. GAME.QVM patches go to svn, CGAME.qvm dont, ..... unless TJW makes them (MD zoom on mouse2), then thers no problem to patch cgame in svn (?!?!) ... so its a gray area :/

Quite nice rasz_pl.
It might take some time adjusting to it but it looks very promising.
One problem i see isn't with your radar but rather mapping.
Similar to the cases where a human just appears around a corner without the radar picking up on it, imagine how much faster a charging tyrant will run u over without even knowing ur there.
