  1. No X-fire doesn't Autostart with Windows. I started using AMD's Gaming Evolved Raptr overlay software that is light weight and more stable than Xfire. It connects to my Xfire account and just works. Now I can take screen shots or make videos whatever I want to do.
  2. A very nice read, I can't say how authentic it might be but sounds informative. Full Length article is here http://amo.net/NT/02-21-01FPS.html .................. A snippet I will explain to you how the Human Eye can perceive much past the misconception of 30 FPS and well past 60 FPS, even surpassing 200 FPS. We humans see light when its focused onto the retina of the eye by the lens. Light rays are perceived by our eyes as light enters - well, at the speed of light. I must stress the fact again that we live in an infinite world where information is continuously streamed to us. Our retinas interpret light in several ways with two types of cells; the rods and the cones. Our rods and cells are responsible for all aspects of receiving the focused light rays from our retinas. In fact, rods and cones are the cells on the surface of the retina, and a lack thereof is a leading cause of blindness. Calculations such as intensity, color, and position (relative to the cell on the retina) are all forms of information transmitted by our retinas to our optic nerves. The optic nerve in turn sends this data through its pipeline (at the nerve impulse speed), on to the Visual Cortex portion of our Brains where it is interpreted. ................
  3. That would have more to do with game play than the commands processed by the in-game admin system, no? The stats system is rather slow as well, and pings are high for most players . I think Sitting- is to look at this. On another note, I am wondering if we are being mildly DDoS'ed. Perhaps we're just overloaded. During the day my ping is 150+ at night its 94-100 ms.
  4. You're right it doesn't happen with the normal game only when loading maps for our FTAG mod. All the other stuff game modes its fine.
  5. So I just found out that an Xfire nickname iboomboom is not my old forgotten account but some other actual person in Australia.

  6. Thanks Loco that stopped the Xfire in-game overlay. For whatever reason when you set it through settings it never worked. Now the game doesn't crash, I will do some more testing. On another note, it takes the functionality Screen Capture or Video making functionality away from you.
  7. Assuming you don't have issues with your internal network connectivity.Did you try the following network com commands already? Network Optimization -------------------------- /cl_maxpackets 100 (0~100) /cl_packetdup 2 (0~5) /snaps 30 GFX Optimization ----------------------- /cg_brass 0 /r_drawSun 0 Hope that helps... you could always move to New York or bribe Rugger in to hosting the server somewhere close to you .
  8. I think that's what's happening the background. My gaming desktop has an AMD while my gaming/workhorse laptop has NVIDIA and it crashes the game on both. On the laptop it did it, after i lowered my resolution to get better FPS and possibly reduce screen jitter. I have not found a working solution yet. I will be emailing Xfire supoprt. The worst part is that there isn't even any crash log I can analyze as to what's causing this.
  9. Guys, Maybe someone can help me. I have an issue with X-Fire whenever a new map is loading it crashes my game's resolution. My screen gets stuck, if I am lucky it lowers my resolution and the game recovers. However, if I quit the game after the recovery the screen will go blank, as if there is a handle on an object not properly released from memory. Screen Resolution: 2048x1152 GFX Card: Radeon HD 7870 If it recovers, it lowers my resolution to 1080, 720p, 480p or some times downright 600x400, WTF? It doesn't do it right away, most of the time it will do it on a new map load. A stable alternate is Overwolf which works with TeamSpeak but its a little finicky to use. Any ideas why this happens? I think it has to do with my screen resolution but playing at 1680x1050, which is what it lowered to once, didn't work for too long either. On another note, does anyone use a 4K monitor? Does Xfire work well for you? Thanks in advance!
  10. Sammy I don't know and I don't think it is map related. If two people throw CP markers in the same spot, it gets stuck mid air. Happened in the ACR mod and this mod too.
  11. Am I the only one who chuckled on the first "hahahahahahahaa"?
  12. It's FreezeTag and the best parts of the later incarnations of the game (killstreaks) that make it unique. I tried to find other mods too but nothing compares to the absolute gratification of earning and using a kill streak in this mod. Team work adds a lot of joy and a sense of accomplishment. IMO, these two are what make any player tick in this game. Oh yes and of course, the adult in-game voice chat banter is a big part of it too. I have seen people who wander on our server and when they hear familiar voices over and over they grow a sense of familiarity with the regular players. In essence, its our mod, and the culture we promote. I'll tell you, I joined mainly so I could use the !fu commands, Ok maybe not entirely because of that. On that note, can we add !slap or !blame similar to !fu command for non-admin XI members? The mayhem, the silliness, the destruction, the utter chaos and the order that ensues all of the above at the end of each round make it addictive. Or just that we don't have real social lives but that's lifestyle issue I think.
  13. Ok so if I drop a predator missile directly on to sentry it will not destroy it?
  14. All these warm wishes made my day all the more special, thank you Idiots ...
  15. You just graduated, don't worry, you will land the right job. Need to focus on the companies you would like to work for. Do your homework, find university alumni connections. Like the old saying, its not what you know but also who you know. If you had the chance to get a good internship while in college, that should make things a bit easier. The first 5 years after graduation are for gaining experience not to make money. Apply to jobs on job boards, Monster, Dice, AfterCollege etc. Hang in there glad tidings will come, stay in high spirits. As for the game, I don't think you cuss in the game as much as I do. I realized I started doing that at work too at inopportune times so now I am controlling my 'default' urge to press Z. I wouldn't have become a sailor had I thought anyone took me seriously in game. We all vent nothing wrong with it , IMO.
  16. We all know Drama is hacking, and then they made him admin. puffffffffffffff!@
  17. Kill it, kill it before it breeds.
  18. They are very tasty... kinda like chicken but a more chewy texture.
  19. I think I know why all this started... There is a story of little boy who liked bunnies very much. One day his father took him camping, they accidentally brought less food so after the first night they ran out of provisions. The father of the boy thought this might be a good opportunity to teach his son about survival. The forest was rife with hares, so he setup a trap to catch one. While father and son sat in one spot, the boy got bored watching the trap but soon enough came a hoppidie hoppidie furry creature and walked in their trap. The boy was excited but then his father killed the bunny and de-skined it right before his eyes. This imagery and experience scared the boy. From that day onward the boy hated camping and even bunnies to protect himself from ever loving those furry creatures. That boy grew up to become a Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare game modder. We call him Sammy. It's Ok brother, let it all in. We are here for you .
  20. Game play differs from map to map. Some are fast paced some are slow, sniper maps. I have most fun and do rather well on fast maps. You have to adapt to the game. Hey speaking of trouts, can we add a server command !slap similar to the !fu command for clan members. Who would do that Sitting- or you? On a side note. Lets all just play knife only from now on.
  21. That's the ballsiest move of all, you go behind enemy lines and take them out when they're not looking. Come on, man that's not your classic cowardly sitting in one spot, that's hitting them where it hurts the most . Eventually found, shot and stuck in their spawn but you rack up some nice number of kills some times.
  22. I only got the Duke once and fucking Spirit killed him in 5 seconds with his fucking MP5. Fuck that guy! Spirit, I mean fuck Spirit!
  23. This game mod is not about realism. When you get shot you don't FREEZE in a bubble in real life. So let's just drop the tempting real life situation comparisons. Camping sucks, for the one who gets shot by a camper but a camper loves the idea of holding a position and taking out the 'morons' running around. Some people like hiding and slowly taking down the enemy. On the flip side, some like running and hopping around dodging bullets. You can build mouse clicking reflexes (aka Skill) in either game play. Let's face it, when you're shooting somebody and you don't get a kill, you will want to blame something. I hear cries about, bunny hoppers, screen lag, high ping, low ping, campers, bullets going thru people. There are some genuine issues AFAIK with the game and then there is just dissatisfaction with not getting a kill. You have to learn to deal with it, the shit is the shit. I am not trying to make a point simply stating what I see to be the facts, perhaps, that's the point. Adding extra bounty on someone who stays in one spot for more than 3 minutes is a great idea. I think camping or hiding and taking out enemies from one spot, however annoying, is still part of the game that makes it fun in its own way. I mean I enjoy hunting campers/hiders (e.g. Nighto). No one should force anyone to play in any one particular fashion. That's what makes our server welcoming to all, its a good mix of all kinds of shit. !fu SitsoLow
  24. Don't take life too seriously, you'll never get out alive.

  25. It's cause you stopped flying man, no you just sit.
