No fear!


Hello there! Lets talk about storming or more accurately, stealing, the opponent's flag. Works if you play on CTF (Capture The Flag) mode.

First... STORM!! Haha! Yeah, just go get the flag. But remember, the running part is where you get in trouble. So, watch your surrounding! Even better if you have 4 eyes! Which is impossible.

Usually, getting the flag is easy, but passing the opponent's spawn points is a bit tricky. Especially when a pro fragger suddenly spawn behind you. Do the bunny hops! Jumping while running increases your speed, I don't know why. What I know is that its useful!

Also, never run in a straight line when you have the flag! Fraggers in Sauerbraten are smart ones! Always have the right prediction of their opponent's next move! Kinda like Chess but in FPS.

So, you should do riflejumps across walls, maybe even fences, or slip through corners and holes on walls! Of course depend on the map structure, to maneuver around the map easily, memorize the maps as I told you in some other previous posts!

I hope it works for you! Until then, farewell!

A week passed!


H-Hey! I'm sorry for not telling you that I was taking a week break! Well, I'm back now. I got a couple of interesting news though.

First, we got some new members! Theres like 3-4 of them but I only know one, |Anyson.A|Duke. My advisor, Stefano, told me he recruited another 2, told me their IGN (In-Game Name) but I don't know their name with the Anyson clan tag on so I can't really put their name on the member list.

Second, I'm not really playing Sauerbraten anymore, I still do but I am not really able to get on most of the time (busy trying something new). But fear not! I'll still keep you posted on the news, tips and tricks!

Oh! Also wanted to tell you I'm playing Wakfu. Its an RPG turn-based game. Kinda fun, with 12 or 14 classes/characters to play with! I'm enjoying it so far! Almost like Maplestory. So if you are playing it or gonna play it, sure try find and join me in Remington server!

And thats all for now! I'll continue posting for sure. Since, school is no longer a big problem! Have fun fragging and collecting!

Ping is the Internet Connection!


Hello there fraggers and non-fraggers! I've heard of a lot of ping complaints for a long time already. I'm kinda bit annoyed by the complaints, well, usually..

So let me tell you this, when someone sees that you are lagging/teleporting, you are also seeing him as he lags/teleports too. So I guess its fair? Well thats my opinion!

Now the server distance between the fragger and the server. I am in Asia and for example the server is in Europe. My usual ping on EU servers are usually 300-500 which is a bit laggy but still playable. So don't blame it on me!

Well, *clears throat* Unless if you can suggest or make one server closer to me. That could be nice! Yeah, you should just do that! (I'm just kidding by the way.)

Let me give you an advice, never accuse or blame someone if you don't know whats going on with that person. So yeah, save your typing speed to tap W, A, S, D and Attack Mouse Button. Hopefully you'll be able to settle some scores!

Until then, have fun fragging and collecting!

Anyson Menu!


Hello there fraggers and non-fraggers! Hmm, I wonder if you are bored out of the menu. If you have played Sauerbraten since the Trooper Edition release to Collect Edition, you'll realize the Main Menu is the same, the difference is just the Crosshair menu.

Now! I, |Anyson.L|Ash, also known as Tryan, successfully modified my main menu including the cursor! I'm so proud of myself.. So heres one of the screenshot!


 Icons and GUI are from Cito Justice mod.


Yeah, I modified the 'names', background, logo and icons! I like it! So yeah, again... I don't know how to do this in Windows and especially Mac but I know how to do this in Linux (since I am one of its user).

In Linux, just modify or replace the files in Sauerbraten --> Data folder. If you want to change the icons, you may find them in Sauerbraten --> Packages --> icons. So yeah good luck with it!

By the way, this is just to show you what you can modify in Sauerbraten. As far as I know, you can modify almost everything! Which is actually very cool..

Thats all for now! Again, I wish you a good luck with your menu if you will try to modify it! Have fun fragging and collecting! Oh! And also, don't forget to backup the files!

Memorizing maps and moves!


Hello there fraggers and non-fraggers! Having a hard time fragging? Hmm...
Of course! You don't even know the map then how are you suppose to play the game? Also dodging in the same place doesn't help.

So it requires you to at least know where to go, wheres the flags or bases and routes! How? Theres some way to inspect the maps! I usually inspect and experiment the maps while playing it online with the rest of the fraggers.

But if you want to look around the map without getting frag, you should load a map by going into the main menu and click on 'Bot Match' and reduce the bot number to '0'.

Then the next thing you need to do is choose a mode and map! Now you can look around without any disturbance! Now if you have mastered the rifle jump or rocket jumping you may use that to find special spots! Well... hopefully..

Now! Are you spamming 'A', 'D' and 'Spacebar' going left and right while jumping? No, don't do that for too long, your opponent will be able to predict that you will jump to the left and put his/her crosshair there first waiting for your turn.

So move randomly! As in chess they call it an 'Unorthodox' move. Which means that it is an unexpected move. I would rather say its unpredictable. Then, try to move in a circle around your opponent. Make him/her go dizzy dazzy!

You might need to practice your accuracy in order to do this. Its quite hard to aim while moving around your opponent. Now take note, the enemy might counter you by moving somewhere else just like you. So be careful!

Well, thats all for now! Have fun fragging and collecting!
