I've been seeing a lot of shots that in D1x would have been dodgable since they went under me by a hair, but that doesn't happen in rebirth; i was wondering why?

If you mean vanilla Rebirth, that's probably the collision bug manifesting. If you mean Retro . . . I don't know, that shouldn't be happening -- take demos demonstrating the effect, and I'll do analysis to get to the bottom of it!

You know, I feel like I've seen this too. Could it just by the departure from p2p to c/s?

That shouldn't affect collisions. The c/s architecture is just network architecture--all traffic flows through the host. The way they're processed and by who should mostly be unchanged, and at any rate, collisions are still client-side.

Good to know. I think some inaccurate tutorials about quake c/s vs descent p2p may have clouded my thinking.
