Hello there guys! My name's promyy, and I'm absolutely new to QW 
First of all: feels great to play this game. I'm a competitive player (played Wolfenstein: Enemy Teritory, Battlefield 3 and some other stuff recently in cups/leagues) but I have to admit that playing classic games is always better than competitive gaming. Period! But now, as I'm absolutely new to Quake World, I need some help:
1. I'm highly confused with EB. The "animation" of the lighting that the gun shoots is... "shaky". I hope you know what I mean Anyways, the thing comes to hit detection: How is the EB hit detection working? Does it hit the point where the animation is pointed, or where the crosshair is pointed not having much to do with the "lightning" that is visible?... In other words: Does the lightning hit point where it strokes, or where the crosshair is located?
2. Is there any 3rd party tool for HUD configuration? I've tried customizing my HUD with ezhud.cfg but... I think it's kinda bugged. Sometimes, when I ie. move health bar, some other elements - in this example the fps counter - moves in the same pattern as the health bar. This makes me unable to configure some things :/ I know that there are 3rd party tools like that for Quake Live... but I couldn't find any for QW.
3. I use nQuake, therefore when I open up the game, then go to multiplayer and set up a server for me and my friend
rhino, it's always running fbca. Are there any ways to make the server vanilla? I just don't want any mods to be running while I just want to play with my buddy.
4. I have a problem with recording matches. I found out that you can record by using /record, but whenever I hit by F7 button (which I binded for /record) and then restart the server, the recording stops. So, is there any ways to:
a) Set the server so players have to ready up before playing, so that I wouldn't have to /restart the server?
b) Configure the recording so it wouldn't stop after /restart?
5. My mouse is a little buggy. In the menu, it looks like it's only refreshing 3 times per second or so... It's massively shaking and is inaccurate. My mouse settings are ok, the refresh rate is just the same as my mouse has, and all other settings are ok as well. Also, during the game, my mouse works very good, but once in 10-15 seconds it like gains a little boost for a half of a second... It's annoying and very random, making my aim inaccurate. I use Razer Abyssus @ 120hz and 1800dpi with 8.4 sensitivity in-game and default Windows sensitivity. Every m_ setting at the default value and no mouse acceleration.
I think that's all. Thanks in advance guys!
