Title: Demo reviews
Post by: Bane on August 04, 2011, 06:22:58 AM

Hey guys I was wondering if someone could review 2 demos for me and let me know if something “funny” is going on with the Unnamedplayer in them. If you are interested just leave me your e-mail address and I can send them to you. Please note that one of them gives me some weird error called CG registration visual itemnum 238 out of range [0-60]

Feel free to send it to me.

The cg_blablaItem error is probably due to a mismatch between the QVM version you're running and the one used in the demo.

Have only checked the first one atm, like 15-20 frags.
From what I've seen, unnamed is a good player playing with a bit high latency (100ms on digichalk can mean: european player with quite good connection). Moves are like he's experienced, that's obviously not cheating, if that was your worry ;)
If you have a more precise thing I should pay attention to, you can tell ;)

Oh no I figured he was experienced with the moves it was just I had a gut feeling ( now proven wrong) and a lot of people leave or go spec on him and said he was using something. Also i saw some videos on youtube awhile back about some quake pros getting caught cheating. Anyway thanks for looking over the demo and responding  :)

Sometimes I wish Q3/OA had a multiview demo /replay system similar to Team Fortress 2. It'd come handy in situations such as these, and make cheater debunking easier for the admins.

To a certain point, I don't care about the nuances. If s/he looks good enough, I'll just admit s/he doesn't cheat. No point in cheating when your standard skill overcomes the typical player one.
Cheat hunting is not a passion I have so I leave it (and its features) to competitors ;) (...unless these features can be used for other purposes, like video making)

yes, MultiViewDemos are excellent for video makeing, btw, ive posted oamme-v3 in the movie maker thread, reduced ALL THE WAY to 37mb, works out of the box
