Small question: Is "strafe run" prohibited in this game?
I mean pressing W and A or D at the same time and turning the mouse....

"W"+"A"+"mouse" or "W"+"A"+"Left/Right Arrows" work just fine.FCs33 wrote:Small question: Is "strafe run" prohibited in this game?

If you have mouse issues, on Windows 7 you might need to set
"MouseLook = Integrated" in the starting menu.

Re: Strafe Run
I asked this because Watchdog kicked me twice (in the first time I was using "strafe run" because the old custom from doom
), and I tought that using this method was the responsible.....

The game internal watchdog has nothing to do with the input keys.FCs33 wrote:I asked this because Watchdog kicked me twice (in the first time I was using "strafe run" because the old custom from doom), and I tought that using this method was the responsible.....
And I didn't find you on the watchdog log anyway.

So you should tell us the truth: "my computer is buggy".

Re: Strafe Run
Indeed I was playing as "player" (forgot to say this, my IP starts with 190).
I saw that there's a command (> show packs) that tells me "3x packets (31/34)" Is this good?
I should cosider moving to USA. I always have lag troubles playing online

Your connection does not look bad (for someone living in Argentina

The main problem with most of the players from South America is the "buffered data packets".
In other words, your ISP is unable to sustain a constant data rate over time.
Obviously, "buffered data packets" leads to "bursts of data packets" a few seconds later.
You'll act like a speedhacker for a few seconds and the watchdog does not like that.
You'll be kicked out of camp.
