Title: Shooting
Post by: Stalker on May 13, 2008, 06:25:50 PM
My Situation:

I am aiming somebody on the head and shooting on him, he dont lose any health, but when he is shooting at me he hits me 3 times and I am dead. Its possible thats its because of little lags or I am doing something wrong.
How are you shooting correctly ?
PS: I dont need comments like: STFU noob
I really want some help and open for any tips :D

try lead aiming http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lag (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lag) aim like 2 -3 places in front of your target if that don't work aim even further...

do you use a controller...

Well, i tryed with both, with controller and with Mouse.
But the problem is still here.

EDIT: What you mean with lead aiming ?

the controller is really messed up in SA:MP because it works against you TRUST ME! i know because i used one USED ONE!.

I don't no more the auto aim works against you a person doesn't even have to aim at you and you loose life if they aim at you well even worst...

I am aiming somebody on the head and shooting on him

I heard that head shots don't do anything/do any harm - but i could be wrong

Lead Aim and use gd weapons and . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . remember a person may lag worse than another, so u may have to lead aim more on one person that another

Anyone got any tips for me???

well...after extensive research on many people with many weapons i can confirm...
IT'S A DRAW!  :o
but arseshot still wins, it doesn't do any more damage but it is fun and lets me shout:

BOOM!! ARSESHOT!!!!!
/me will try to keep his voice down so he doesn't wake up the neighbours screaming boom arseshot as loud as he can at 2:30  :-*

YO Stalker,

hope you learned from the video [W]IDmad posted. It explains pretty good.


In some cases you might be unsync to other players. Hope unsync is the right word.
That means the ppl u r unsync 2 do not see u shooting so u can not hurt them with your fists, feet and weapons.
But they might be able to hurt u till u r dead.
Thats a problem that happens verry often to me and I do not know what I could do about it. In older versions of sa.mp this did not happen often, or I did not recognized it that often.

If one of the 2 fighting persons enters and exits a vehicle again, most sync issues should be solved like this.
Example: you shot a person and start to realise your desync to him/her. You quickly get into a vehicle and out again to continue shooting at him >> most likely you will be sync after this "vehicle trick". Same applies if your opponent enters a vehicle instead of you.
Hope that help's. ;)

@ those who asked exactly at which body parts others shoot: torso (upper body / chest) due to the fact it's the "biggest target". As stated by others earlier, it won't make any difference if you shoot someone right into the head or in his right thumb (same damage).
