cheers for the help @reading i saw some of them problem is few are in english , do the servers normally have a really low player count? the ones i join most people are really good so its completely pointless playing along with people not willing to help you out.
welcome to my situation when i first started in december 2011; yes virtually all the servers have a really low player count and the few that actually play are all seemingly pro. I have a youtube channel and theres like 3 or 4 fights there, look up "ESF Duels", I wanted to put more fights up, but I can't really catch any. Some of the people that play go into servers in groups of 3 or 4 and change the password so no one can go in there, if i try to get the pw normally the match has already started and it's too late or it's just a late response overall.
in game, in console (`) type these in
cam_idealdist 100-200 this will bring the camera back so you can see around yourself and get a better perspective on the fight
cam_snapto 1 this will lock your cursor in the center so it's not moving around when you're turning or what not
fps_override 1 do it
fps_max 200 do it
OR
you can permanently change these by going into your program flies>steam>steamapps>common>half-life>esf
look for something called autoexec and use notepad to open it and you put these changes in there so they are permanent, this is what mine looks like:
r_mmx "1"
r_dynamic "0"
sv_cheats "0"
sv_lan "0"
fps_override "1"
fps_max "200"
cam_idealdist "200"
cam_snapto "1"
//sv_cheats "1"
//dev_overview "1"
