If I\'m not in planeshift often you\'ll fine me acruing frags here in cube. Except that punk midwinter always whips me.. :( anyhoo anyone else interested in a decent free first person shooter?
-
The terrain looks great though the monster models could use some work.
Ill try the shooter out. :)
*would just like to point out I know nothing about any code at all and I\'m totally useless. :)

Yep - the monsters are really weird, But I love how smooth this game is in online play, not like CS or other games like that that I have played. And it does well with lag too.
-
I really liike Cube as well. Just a simple shooter game where I take all the frustation of reading Phinehas\' posts and relinquish it by fraging a few innocent souls :D .

Nice graphics. Tried it a couple of years ago, but it had one major fault. It was impossible to bind a key to turning, so I would always be looking the same direction, and often have to walk backwards without having any idea how the level looked back there. Well, time to try it again, maybe they improved it... Guess what, it seems it\'s still impossible to bind a key to turning :(

o.O A key to turn ??
Btw, nice graphics, but you jump too high to my tastes, and the corridors are too small, when it\'s a bit crowded it\'s really hard to move :/

Normally, when playing any of the Doom, Quake or UT games, I use left-arrow to turn left, and right-arrow to turn right. Even in PS things work like that. But it seems to be impossible int that Cube game, the left and right arrow just make me move sideways, and I\'m stuck looking the same way all the time.

Usually I use the mouse for turning in shooters i mean how do you expect to hit something when you have to adjust with 4 keys?

Well, at the very least you can relinquish that frustration for the frustration of getting fragged by me... :D
This is a GOOD game. Too bad I don\'t have access atm.
And Cyl is right, who uses the keyboard to aim in FPS\'s? Ewww...

If you had to choose between the keyboard and wrist pain, what would you choose? I can\'t use a mouse at all.

A game that requires less intense mouse action, perhaps?
-
If you don\'t want to use the mouse to turn and aim, then I am pretty sure you can add keyboard maps for it in one of the .cfg files.
further inspection showed me that there is a nice complicated keymap.cfg file in the data directory with in the cube directory, and I had no idea how to make the mouse do it. In linux you could use access controls to make the aarow keys move the mouse though, so perhaps windows has an equivilant.
