thats retarded
The twist: Interpolate is client-side, and has nothing to do with server anything.
That is fucking retarded. What next, if someone plays with 120 FOV then everyone else will change to 120 FOV when they're looking at him?Another slight tweak is available today. We kick for the new troc hack that is
making the rounds. I am using the test I should have been using all along.

I'll be taking a break from this for a bit to finish up the work on ReversePolate.
Ordinary "polate" is when a client sets interpolatetime to 0 and then their client
views all the motion of the other players with that setting.
ReversePolate is server side. The server may select a naughty player to be
reversepolated. If this occurs all players on the server will view the naughty
player's motion as if they all had interpolate set to 0 but only for the naughty
player. Every player's view of the other players will be unaffected.
There is more to be done here but thats the first step.
Except interpolate doesn't make you see anything you couldn't see before, whereas autobeacon, and 120 FOV for that matter, does. So you should really be looking into this FOV thing first, it's much more of an advantage.Well that analogy sucks. Lets see if we can try a little harder.
Suppose the server detects someone using an autobeacon/shiva variant.
You are skiing along thinking you are safe behind the hills and blammo - the
heavy that couldn't see you somehow dropped a mortar right at your feet (again).
Since that heavy has beacons on top of everybody's head - what would happen
if you looked up and saw that the server had put a beacon over his head?
You will still be owned. While lasthope is disrespected by some and considered
obsolete - in the hands of a master it can still deliver a knockout blow. Beware.
bugs is right what he is saying would work perfect. and yes interpolate is a fucking cheat you assholes.
Let's not forget those fucking hackers with 120 FOV, god it pisses my off how they can see stuff I can't.Having a good connection is a cheat, then, correct?
Polate was among the best things to happen to tribes imo as it helped to level the playing field. The problem to me was that it was patched out rather than simply reducing cg damage, which would obviously make for the most level playing field. I'm not even sure that's a matter of opinion so much as fact.
C'est la vie!
