A1. \df_ghosts_MiniviewDraw 0 . Note that generally, any FPS-loss experienced while a ghost is playing is generally due to the miniview (PIP), and not the ghost itself. -------------------------------------------------- Q2. How do I turn off ghost recording completely? A2. \df_ghosts_AutoMode 0 -------------------------------------------------- Q3. How do I record a ghost from a demo, for racing purposes? A3. WARNING: The following method will overwrite your best ghost (if one exists). 1. Set df_ghosts_AutoMode 7 2. Play the demo 3. Set df_ghosts_Automode 4 4. Load the map, and race the ghost -------------------------------------------------- Q4. How do I record a ghost from a demo, for demo recamming purposes? A4. The main steps are listed below. See the separate readme-[Ghosts-DemoRecamming].txt file for additional information. 1. Record a ghost from a demo. To do this, set df_ghosts_AutoMode 1. Play the demo. 2. Decide which camera mode you would like to use. Select a ghost camera mode, and set the mode using df_ghost1_PlayCameraMode N. This will force the view to be through the ghost's eyes during demo playback. 3. Play the ghost during the demo. To do this, set df_ghost_AutoMode 2. Play the demo. -------------------------------------------------- Q5. How do I know what values to assign to the Crosshair Stats system? A5. Ingame, type: \info in the console.

You can select the hook type through the menu system or the df_hook_Type cvar. Changing this cvar requires a map_restart -------------------------------------------------- Q7. How do I turn on Overbounce Detection? A7. Turn on the crosshair stats display system (\df_chs1_draw 1) and assign one of the overbounce detection items to one of the crosshair stats info. slots (\df_chs1_info1 55) (which turns on all OB detections except quaded WOBs). -------------------------------------------------- Q8. How do I spectate my teammate using the PIP? First you must turn on the ghost PIP with one of the spectating options (df_ghosts_MiniviewDraw 7 or 8). Then specifiy the player number you want to track using the df_mp_TrackPlayerNum variable. To see a list of the players and their numbers, in the console, type: \info players
