A very long time ago, there was an awesome script I came across.
It was a toggling strobing flashlight script. I deleted it by accident, and
I'm not good at scripting. It would be cool if anyone could make another
one, it has to blink like a strobe light, and is toggle enabled.

What type or genre of music do you guys think fits NS the best? Creepy
ambient music like Doom 64, or something like rock...

Music video? I think the NS Theme Song is the right one for NS!

Either that, or some classical (Beetoven's Moonlight Sonata).

Or the Doom theme song.
Crotalus
Yeah, but I don't want the friggin' NS Theme song replaying a hundred times while I am playing, what other songs would you think be apropriate?
Breakthrough
Rammstein - Buch Dich
(I don't think Rammstein is spelled correctly)
Wolv
Actually, Rammstein is spelled correct, "buch dich" not.
And for ppl that understand German it can be a bit akward to listen to for a prolonged period of time. Something to do with succesive repeating of "bend over" and "I don't need to see your face".

the command that allowed you to make a strobing flashlight script has been disabled in this patch. However, you can get the same effect by doing this:

bind PGDN "impulse 100"
OR
bind PGUP "impulse 100"

Every keyboard I've used has Page Down and Page up buttons that act as turbo buttons. The only thing is that if you hit any other button on the keyboard it will interupt the cycle.

I have HL2 musics in NS now, but I'm planning to change those. I have big gamemusic collection so I have hard time to take best ones sad-fix.gif

And there is a scripting forums where this would have fit much better...

Moving it now..

I don't think anything Rammstein did makes sense. But then again, music only occasionally does biggrin-fix.gif

CODE
//flashlight strobe
alias flash "impulse 100; wait; wait; impulse 100; wait; wait"
alias flash5 "flash; flash; flash; flash; flash"
alias flash25 "flash5; flash5; flash5; flash5; flash5"
bind h "flash25"

works on bs_1 servers too

Toggle:
CODE

alias flash_toggle "strobe"
alias strobe "bind f flash25; alias flash_toggle flash"
alias flash "bind f impulse 100; alias flash_toggle strobe"
bind SOMEKEY "flash_toggle"

not sure if "bind f impulse 100" works in an alias, so might want to alias it out
Crotalus
Are you sure there is no easier way to make it?
The one I had was fully togglable in only 4 lines...

Probably the old _special one then:
CODE

alias strobe "-attack2; w; impulse 100;w;w;impulse100;w; +attack2;"
alias "+sflash" "alias _special strobe; +attack2;"
alias "-sflash" "alias _special; -attack2;"
bind "f" "+sflash"


As for music, stopsound ftw. Although the theme tune for Futurarma is great for the start of a match. biggrin-fix.gif
Gecko_God_Of_Dooom
Static-X : Head
or if you realy realy like fast paced guitar.
Yngwie Malmsteen : Rising Force

also a few songs from Carmagedon 2 is good.

One time I used WinMX to get mp3s of various jungle and techstep/darkstep artists, compiled the best, snazziest, big-bassiest, hardcoreiest tracks into a folder, which I put into my NS Music folder in the NS directory. Then I enabled music in options, and bound M to Nexttrack. Now I can totally run around and do battle listening to Decoder and Dieselboy and stuff. I wish I knew how to turn my computer into a better NS Radio.

Well yeah, it's blocked by bs0 or bs1...

Sorry, "the old script" was probably not worded as informatively as it could have been. That's what you were thinking of though; it worked after bs1 got "fixed".
ReK
Actually, _special has been blocked since 3.0f, no matter the state of mp_bs.
