Little Program Idea

~~Charmape~~ · 03-05-2007, 01:00 AM

Is it possible for someone to make a side program that can be implanted to GunZ so that you see your opponent's ping (when your cursor is pointing at the opponent) without having to Tab and check the ping every single time? I certainly like lag in the game but if everyone has a huge difference number in their pings, it becomes quite frustrating in a 16 DM. Just an idea. I'm guessing it's impossible for someone to make this work unless MAIET/Ijji/w.e implants the feature into the game.

I dont they do that or eve let someone implant something like that.
Cause if they do allow, people can implant hacking tools instead.
But a nice idea you have there. Cause whenever I tab to look at pings. I get killed. (-_-).

impossible to make.. you'd have to edit system.mrs maybe? dunno but you'd have to edit the game files(prevented by hacking prevention system?) itself to make it get somebody's ping while pointing at somebody.

i dunno. i dont have a problem with tabbing for 2 seconds at most to look at the pings. interesting idea though

I don't have a problem with tabbing too. But if there's like 16 players in the game and you need to find out a specific player's ping immediately, you're going to have to find it very quickly on that long list!

and before you get killed by the rest of the players in that game. LOL.

Thoughtful idea.

God-King Sonblade · 03-05-2007, 06:10 PM

Good idea, but the problems are:[list][*]People usually move to fast to see the ping[*]IjjiGunz's pings are incorrect anyways[*]MAIET might not allow some sorta thing[*]Might not even be possible x.x

Hymnosi · 03-05-2007, 06:13 PM

Anything is possible with the right tools

I'd imagine this could be a usable mod.

MetalGuru1 · 03-05-2007, 06:14 PM

Know what I want in gunz?

An option that says flee.
Health bars.
And summons.

On topic:nope, We already know the answer to that.

I wouldn't mind having a numerical indicator on my health and armor points. Then there'd be less deaths on over-estimation of your own health.

MetalGuru1 · 03-05-2007, 06:34 PM

I was wondering about bars on enemies making a FFXII reference but eh.

That could easily help in making hacks.

What would be better is if you hover over someone and their ping appears in the corner of the screen and fades away after 2 seconds. Imagine trying to catch a number on a "tooltip" when that person is moving extremely fast.

I can only imagine how many 0's and 999's will appear all over my screen when I play a DM game with that implemented XD. I just check the scoreboard when something looks fairly fishy, like spikers going over 3000. Then I check the scoreboard again to look at their name and kick 'em.
