Urban Terror Forums: AJSB (old) - Viewing Profile

This is only a suggestion, mainly for the DEV team...but it would be interesting to hear your opinion...


As you know the main thing i dislike in UrT is those orange uniforms (well, granted, they still look better/more_realistic than old red ones)....more, i dislike that no matter the scenario for a map is daylight or night, desert or urban, sunny or in the snow, etc. the uniforms are always the same....then i noticed in the old (4.0.0) UrT manual that the map devs could use different skins for their maps....

Was this disabled in 4.1 ? can it be reactivated for 4.2 ? or how about the optional skins be part of the game and not of the maps and the player can select via CVAR what skin he/she prefers for RED and BLUE team ? The camo woodland and camo urban skins (option 2 for "BLUE" and RED" teams) seemed very nice

This way , according to eyesight of each player and personal prefs , and between certain limits (after all, the skins choices will be same for all and in-game with a limited number of options, so, no cheating with glowing uniforms ) ) , the players could customize even further how the game would look in THEIR computer....

Is there a way to remove completely the kind of text messages of the type "player_x killed/was_killed blah blag blah...." ? i consider them very annoying and obtrusive of the HUD....as an alternative, in the case we can't remove them completely , is there a way to move them to the low left corner ?


BTW, is it possible to move the echo messages to the center of screen ?

I was trying to check my appearance and read the manual and so i bound a key to toggle cg_thirdperson (in my autoexec.cfg) but when tried to use it, nothing happened...still in 1st person view !?!
Then i activated the console to check the value of cg_thirdperson and it said that there isn't such a variable ?!?

Did that variable changed it's name in 4.1 ? or was it locked/deactivated ?

TIA,

Some time ago i played UT and i actually liked it....except that i don't like the colors of the uniforms because they are so unreal...so, even if it makes my game play worst because it would be more dificult to me spot the enemies, is it possible to change the uniform colors from the default bright red and bright blue ?!?


TIA,
