Blinking Demos

Frogg2 · April 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">Blinking is fun and easy :D</div> Alot of people say blink is broken/ only works half the time.

I was bored so I made some demos for each map.

you can d/l it <a href='http://www.froggeh.com/downloads/fadeblink.zip' target='_blank'>here.</a>

I don't play fade much so I was a bit out of practice and got stuck a few times.

before I download is there any point watching this if I know how to blink and it doesn't surprise me at all to see someone blink?

Frogg2 · April 2003

no this is for people that don't know how to blink.

How do you watch Demo's? 96000th Board Post.

Put the files into your ns folder. Load up NS, go into the console and type "playdemo <demoname>" without the "" and <>

Does the demo include blinking back and forth over a marine until he gets dizzy and falls down? That's my favorite trick. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

I made a map for some friends of mine that wanted to learn how to blink. It has open spaces hallways and 2 different sizes of vent. I f you want I will post it (if I can find it).

One more thing about the demos. Do i have to join a server and then watch it or do i have to create an own LAN game to make it work? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

You can just run it from the console at start.

does anyone know why once i blinked into a wall and died?<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>? i have not been able to repeat it and not sure how it happened. i blinked then died instantly after that. and i didn't fall after the blink

That_Annoying_Kid · April 2003

you probably blinked into the wall.

A tip that greatly improves the success of blink is to jump, the crouch in midair, and <b>then</b> blink, it makes the succes rate go thru the roof, and some walls can be blinked thru, as well as anything glass. you can blink one way thru the security doors (away from the marines start) in hera, and I found this out yesterday, in seige you can blink into the ready room <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'> (you can figure out the significance of that..)
*chuckles*
blink is a very potent "weapon" if used correctly

Let's not forget that everyone dosen't have the problem of not knowing HOW to blink but that it acctually dosen't work
So for those who still can't blink
It dosen't always work
There's a bug that makes blink and leap not work

Most likely a server running the (Horrifically innaccurate) 1.0 'script detection'. Which would instantly kill anyone who switched weapons quickly. You probably tried to change to claws immediately after and thus got /kill'd. The fact that you went towards a wall was irrelevant.

I blink successfully at least 95% of the time and i have never known leap to fail once. For those of you who've played original Half-Life or HLDM blink works very well if u try a "long jump" and then hit your mouse button straight after. For those of you who don't know how tyo long jump, you hit duck, then you hit jump, the you hit your mouse button, this should all happen within 0.5 seconds and you will be able to blink like a crazy person with a wasp in his eye.

Blinking is fun <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>. Thats all I did on satcom hive while watching over the gorge.

Dont expect to blink in small hallways, it works best in open spaces. Point at about 45 degrees and press fire, or jump and press. It should work most of the time. I only got stuck in that ramp leading to waste.
