I've been practising for about 40 minutes and just managed to jump across the water on 2fort, thank you so much!
-
@SkRyanz Yes, A and D makes you strafe.
-
Yea .. what is this "strafe" button. Just A or D ?
-
thank you :D
-
0:45 it looks so simple, but i no the troubles that lurk within D:
PS I CANT DO IT :B
-
by strafe do you mean side keys?

For some of you who still cant exactly grasp how turning makes you go further than a straight line, The actual half life engine command that makes this magic happen is called "sv_airaccelerate". The Best example of the command in use is within CounterStrike 1.6 "Surfing" videos. The whole point of surfing is that your standing on a slight slant that you slide right off, but the airaccelerate is actually high enough that when strafing you can counter gravity and gain speed. Search "CS 1.6 surf"

this is like bunnyhopping
What happens if you hold both W AND a strafe button (A/D)? That's what I do, and I have no problems with jumping.

@TheTouchyDuck Define what you mean by "no problems." Can you do the jump I do at the beginning of this vid (from on side of battelements to the other)? I suspect not. Can you complete, for example, stage 5 in the basic rj_rocketeer map using only 1 rocket? Again, no. Strafe jumping only works if strafe is the only direction being held. (Caveat: there is a way to "strafe jump" with forward only, but it's impractical... and you can NEVER do it with forward AND strafe simultaneously).

I asked a serious question, the video owner reply me with a straight mean answer and get highest thumbs up from viewers. I feel like a dead worm.

@tonylin2 It was a serious answer. I'm not sure how else to explain "how to hold strafe."
1) Locate the strafe button
2) Put your finger on it
3) Push
4) Keep your finger on it
Better?

@EncryptedZProduction Default controls have W-forward, S-back, A-strafe(left) D-strafe(right). Strafe means sidestep.
