Hi Connavar,

pretty cool. I still have two questions:

-could there be a matrix with all the recordtimes
-how do I get better times :D:D e.g. the times of yeldar2097

Hi Connavar! I'll check further on my side. Other OSs and SM2.0 installations. Maybe it's just the crappy MacBook :P I'll keep you posted.

btw, as Seamonkey 2 is Gecko there should be no issues compared to FF, Camino, kameleon and others

Hi, yeah there could be, I'm not convinced it would be useful though...
You can always check the bot matrix :D

How to get better times? This has already been discussed in other topics,
I think you already know the tracks and all modes, so for you:
- make sure to really optimize your racing lines, you often need to be as close
to the walls as possible, without hitting them
- master advanced techniques: sideshift, barrel rolls, good located turbos
- keep beating your ghost!!
- watch some of his videos, then ask yourself if you can do the same, and
if not, then why?
- also, if you can record some videos yourself, yeldar himself will be able to
tell you what you need to improve :)

I don't think you'll reach yeldar level very soon (I'm still far from him), but you
can get closer.

Hi Connavar,

thxs for your answer :+ but I know that I suck and I know my capacities. :-:redface: Still I love the game. :beer

Man I just checked your worse records ... improve your detonator records ASAP
haha, I also need to improve them, Hellfire did a great tutorial about it, check it
out, this will help you for sure:

Also zone, about zone: just do it over and over again until you stop hitting the
walls.

Hi Connavar,

I've seen that video but I still don't know how to play it. If I look at the bombs, I don't see the track. If I look at the track, I don't see the bombs. I hate detonator (I suck) but I know it is killing my ranking. The same for Zone. I can handle it till Zone 35 (Zen) and then the game is over for me. I have looked several movies with respect, but it isn't my thing. Another things about the records: can it be true that 1 person has all the records for detonator, sometimes with 150 k difference?

Still it would be nice if there were some tips and "tricks. E.g. fastest lap, Vineta k, venom. I use the boost at the start, have br's and good lines (I think). Still the record is 3,5 seconds quicker. I really don't know how to do this .......... Yelder help....

Greetings

Ref: my special SM2.0 issue.

It seems it is on my side - but I don't have a clue why. Other system, same OS same setup same Browser does work :blarg

On the faulty system I started the jscript debugger and got this in jquery.js (Sizzle CSS Selector Engine)

#0: function anonymous() in <http://chboing.free.fr/wipeout/js/jquery.js> line 19
#0: function anonymous(K=MouseEvent:{0}) in <http://chboing.free.fr/wipeout/js/jquery.js> line 19

This happens when I try to use the < and > buttons on the right side of the pulldowns (e.g. matrix, recent, overall, ...) w/ Apply

btw, I have no clue what I'm doing as my jscript skills are nil and me debugging jscript is like being good at detonator or zone. Will never happen.

I'll check later again

Vineta is an exception because you can do a Boost+Boost+BR+BR at the start!!
So don't worry...

(Check blackwiggle's post :) )

About detonator: it's more important to look at the track, and never hit walls,
and then if you randomly fire when there are bombs, you should stay alive,
charge your EMP too!

Well, I can tell you. It's because he is and can be dedicated like nothing else
if you put him on a good challenge. We've worked out together how to score
with maximum efficiency and also found some nice little tricks. ;) You wouldn't
believe how involved the scoring is and when you have to do the right thing to
get the most out of it.

Edit: His records are all for real, I've seen him doing most of them while sitting
right next to him.

Oh you guys are friends? Geez the Zone virus is spreading in Germany!

Yeah good friends. He actually bought a PS3 while seeing me zoning. :D
I think he would also be one of the best in other modes if he wouldn't play
cs that much.

Maybe he has some tips for a loser?

Have you read through the 'Detonator mode' thread? DD already posted
a big tutorial over there. If you grasp all this and become really good then
there is still something sHoqa can tell you, if he likes to do so.

New change in overall rankings, records with a Ratio lower than 150 points,
are not taken into account for this overall ranking, meaning that some people
gained a few positions while others lost.
(They will still count as 2/3 of your average without them)

What about a default flag for those that haven't set any? The indentation bugs
me quite hard. :nod

Hi Connavar,

only some another small modifications and I will be the No. 1 :hyper:hyper:hyper

Maybe because I'm dutch or suck at detonator???

prttoettoet

Well, prttoettoet, if you pay Connavar 1000 EUR per month then he might
set you on position 1 per default. ;)

Is he so expensive?

ProblemSolver, I will tell you a secret (i am the bot). Don't tell anybody.

Haha... something like this: if (name=='prttoettoet') score=(score+2000)/3 ? :P

ProblemSolver: I just tried with an invisible flag, but it looks bad.
Can you give me an empty flag like [wipeout] flag, that would fit?

Will do.
