And it really bugs me that everybody thinks that oldschool = 0.56, most 0.56 players actually changed to lx proffesional 3.5 years ago, and then everybody was really updated on betas. It's pathetic how the progress can slow down so much just because they want to pretend to be oldschool (even if they really are).

It's not about that why most people use 0.56 rather than some OLX rc3.
I think people use it because it's simple, eats less memory, better fps (at-least for me), smoother game play, idiot-proof frontend... And with a big plus, it's that same old LieroX I've always loved to play. RC3 has large amount of stupid settings that are most likely unnecessary & unneeded. It's stupid to code all stupid ideas that are unneeded for this game, development has gone to wrong direction - just delete all the unneeded crap options out of there. That just makes game look stupid when you need to take at-least 15 minutes to even get to know half of the stupid game options.

And then you'll have a game with less options that people will still not play!

Screw the rules I have green hair

If anybody have something constructive to say, say it, else I'll lock the topic.

[joni]

Just go and lock this topic. Isn't there anyways enough of this kind of topics - topics about activeness of tis game, differences between 0.56 and rc3 and topics where there are some newbies whining or Liam whining about how uncool 0.56 users are and how noob they are?

[Lodur]

I read this thread and someone replied to my question about the speeding up the aim in the new version. Also someone ( Hatten? ) said that first we want the min. version req. in the game and then when we do have it - we dont.

Those two are related at least in my case. In rc3 I cant do most of 'tricks' in game because of the physics but just for the games sake I'd use it. But no. Special someone did NOT think this through and modifies the aim go faster which NATURALLY divides players to the ones with oldskool aim and the ones that are used to the new one.

Cant blame some people for using the rc3 but they cant really blame us either for using old versions.

Btw, I've had my server open for over an hour now and maximum of 10 people has joined it.
So ON TOPIC: No, It's not dead yet Taffe. 10 noobies joined my server along with Puni.

I blame you for using old versions. What're you gonna do about it?

I'm not sure if you know this already, but the aim speed can be changed and it's not even that difficult. There are guides on this very forum on how to get it like it was in 0.56, which is probably how you would like it. One such guide and some discussion about the aim speed can be found here.

If we then think about how the different aim speeds affect the gameplay, i.e. whether it's fair or not that some people can aim faster than others, that is a completely different discussion. I would personally say that it's not such a big deal. I would also like to point out that it shouldn't be too hard to get used to different aiming speeds.

..in your face OP! XD

I would also like to disagree about the 'fact' that the development is dead.

We've got just 27 commits to main branch since May, most of them by Albert to fix minor bugs or compilation settings, and two by me to add Warriors Stronghold w2 level (ye I could not even add it with a single commit). So the development is stalled for a 5 months already.
DC have created experimental branch for OLX with advanced skinning possibilities, but it's not ready yet. (basically OLX is now running inside web-browser. Don't ask).

We have all rights to use old versions as long the physics, playability, and the "feeling of playing real LX" have nothing related in the new versions.

IMO those who want developing shit with such "nice new" features can go make a own game and stop destroying such a great game like LX. Just like every communists and socialists here in Finland can go to their favourite society country - Russia.

[joni]

To Russia!

[Hatten]

1. Nobody forces you to use the new version.
2. You do have the rights to use the old version.
3. They are developing a new game, 0.56 is left as it is, they are developing OpenLieroX 0.58 and 0.59

Go start your own forum dedicated to 0.56 if you want.
