hey, GL users have a BIIIIG advantage in that they can use gl_shaftlight 0


but r_shaftalpha 0 is not allowed in ruleset smackdown ?


why?


its the only reason I prefer GL...

Even if there was no gl_shaftlight you could still use ANY color/shade/whatever on your lg bolt by just replacing the texture.

r_shaftalpha can make lg bolt totally invisible making it even "better" than lineshaft, so it can be considered cheating.

so you can replace the texture in software too ? how ?



i dont want to change the look of the shaft, just make it transparent NOT invisible

i want equivalent of gl_shaftlight 0 in software, and make it legal for ruleset smackdown ...




far from everyone knows or wanna mess with .paks and textures, but a simple variable is no big deal ...

Is the ruleset actually revised ever, or is it stuck in the 90s while clients get developed for nothing.

If you are using software client, you are stuck in the 90s anyway.
