firteam vsay command?

Ark42 · 2003-07-26 19:37:37 UTC

Is there a fireteam equivalent to say/say_team and vsay/vsay_team
I know messagemode/messagemode2 have the fireteam command messagemode3, but say_fireteam and vsay_fireteam dont exist, at least not named like that. I know mp_quickmessage and mp_fireteammsg, but i hate memorizing all the numbers and pressing 3-4 keys to say a message.

I notice some of the sounds have FT infront of them, but that doesnt mean they are being sent to your fireteam. mp_fireteammsg 6-2-1 will say the ‘medic’ sound to your fireteam, so how can I bind that to one key? vsay medic and vsay_team medic are both not what I want.

From: http://www.rtcwonline.com/dummies/et-chats.htm

Use vsay_buddy [class number][number of players][list of players’ fireteam IDs] [vsay string] - sends a voice chat to the entire team - it will show up in yellow to the recipients. Example. bind x “vsay_buddy -1 0 needbackup”

For binds just use 0 for num_players, and omit the player list
Classnumber should be -1 for any class, and 0-4 for the classes in their usual order.

So, if I wanted to bind a key to say “need back up” to the entire team, it would look like:

bind x “vsay_buddy -1 0 needbackup”

No wonder I never noticed that before, its written in bright bright yellow on a white background

black background for me - i blame your inferior browser

I blame your improper use of CSS, for I am using the superior Mozilla 1.4

Color RGB values such as #123456 are not supposed to be quoted. Apparently IE tolerates this broken behaviour.

The error are the quotes around the color names. I mailed them about that issue about 4 months ago. This problem is even worse with their Quake3 page, which has black text on a black background image due to this bug on some browsers (i.e. Netscape 7).

I guess Ifurita is using Internet Explorer, which allows buggy CSS and HTML code. Try to validate your files at w3c.org.

W3C MarkUp Validation Service http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.rtcwonline.com/dummies/:

 I was not able to extract a character encoding labeling from any of the valid sources for such information. Without encoding information it is impossible to validate the document. The sources I tried are:

    * The HTTP Content-Type field.
    * The XML Declaration.
    * The HTML "META" element.

And I even tried to autodetect it using the algorithm defined in Appendix F of the XML 1.0 Recommendation.

Since none of these sources yielded any usable information, I will not be able to validate this document. Sorry. Please make sure you specify the character encoding in use.

IANA maintains the list of official names for character sets.
