I don't want to regenerate the complete advantage skin / model debate again, but I want to do a call out towards every player that will play in this tournament to avoid the use of bright skins and to avoid the use of any model overall. It will, in my opinion, make games fairer and thus more enjoyable for everyone.
If you like using these skins or models, I'm sure you can remove them from your data directory for these couple of games, while you're installing scripts 3.4.4 maybe  . I'll let you decide for yourself what you consider an advantage and what you don't.
I'm aware that there's no real way of checking or forcing this, but if most of you put up some "self discipline" for this, then I'm convinced it'll be beneficial for the tourney.
The same behaviour should obviously apply towards people that think they need cheats to play half decently...
PS: I'm not an organizer, I'm just a player in this tourney but I think this matters. I personally only play for fun, I truly don't care about winning or loosing  .

How is it fun to know you're playing but not competing on the same level? I don't care about winning or loosing if I have a fair and equal chance to do both.
Cheats do tend to ruin my fun.

Is that why you're using them? (see your tank fight video...)[/offtopic]
As I said in my first post: this isn't ment to become another "advantage or not" skin thread, I think my intentions are very clear.

RenGuard does indeed successfully block skins no problem - the cheaters never bothered bypassing it since no server used pure lol.
I am quite happy to support the use of compulsory pure renguard on this tourny with scripts 3.4.4
Thats the only way to be sure everything is 100% fair.
|
RenGuard has outlived it's usefulness. BIATCH is superior and RR is next in line (1st for client-side).
If you are going to push for RenGuard compulsory, then I'm going to say force RR. It runs on 2.9.2 (afaik) and servers can run it. Provides kudos anti-cheat. Vastly superior to RenGuard.

Nightma is actually quite correct, one thing RenGuard still does perfectly is block advantage skins.
|
If you get RG to run, of course. Still no 64bit support.

If indeed. I still can't run RG with my Vista 64 bit. Just means I won't be going to servers which still use it.
|
Luckily for you, that are not a lot of servers.

Every so often, I get this positive feeling that humanity can somehow, possibly attain pure awesomeness, and enlightenment, and that there is light at the end of the road for us all. However, I only need to go to the latest HUD thread at RenForums to remind me of how dumb I was for thinking such stupid things.

RR does not block advantage skins...
RG pure works fine for blocking advantage skins....
