Meaning no more Regenerating from 69/0 to 70/0. Quite good, really.
If only... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

sure.
No more brightness hax.

Yes, because we all know brightness and gamma is cheating and should be removed from the game...
but anyways, it's nice to get these updates.

Hmm maybe darker maps(Like in the verisons 3.0 beta 3 and lower) and aliens get advance sight back...
People change gamma in video card settings
OH well <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Anyways the other changes look good, I vote that they stop all production on the BUS and open the box <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Nice one Zunni... But is it possible to workaround like we did with ex_interp... If so what is the meaning of locking a cvar... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Then again, perhaps this could encourage the reimplementation of Enhanced Sight... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> (I want my Enhanced Sight! Is good!)
And no, those veterans don't deserve their eyes. They're cheating devices, I tell you!
As for the box... In a choice between the BOX or the BUS, I'd take the BOX any day of the week, especially since the BOX might contain ten BUSses that would lead to 10x the improvement instigated by a single BUS! Mwahahaha, I must sound high or something...
Do you intend to make the game better by removing the possiblities of customizing your game ? I wonder whose idea it is.

and you set it to a higher value, not to a low one, for the exploit.

Oh yeah ?

Then why does it block values <i>below</i> 2.0 ?
see, that is why I qualify my statements with 'i believe' and such things as that.
remember that entire being human thing, and thus making periodic mistakes?
Also lightgamma is pretty cheap because instead of making everything bright it just makes shadows brighter. Which again was pretty damn cheap.
But yeah it shouldn't have been locked to 2.0 and below, but 1.0 and below. Some of these playtesters have no idea of what they are doing.
Not only that, but overflowing regen is way unbalancing. It shouldn't be put it in and it makes gorges, lerks, fades, and onos (esp. fade + onos) godlike at hives.
It should only work for person regen not hive regen.
Wow some of these PT"s have no idea how to balance a game.
Okay time to get active again....
hehe, was about to post wondering what the over flow had to do with the vie's health regen... hehe, I get it now, you say that only the upgrade should over flow not health gain from the hive (and I assume DCs then also)

I wonder who would be a great PT who knows what he's talking about? Gee, could it be forlorn?
I don't see why people whine about every little change like that. 2.0 is a low enough value. If it's not, change your video card settings or your monitor settings. Anything below that just makes the map washed out.

No, not really. High values are anything but an exploit. I believe 2.5 is default (maybe not), and anything above that makes the maps look a lot darker, and values over 4.0 it's hard to see what's going on.
