An easy tweak that makes M:R more Thonlike

SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

An easy tweak that makes M:R more Thonlike

This may be old news to most people, but to those who aren't familiar with UT (such as yours truly), this has made M:R a bit more Marathon-like for me.
My main problem was that the Shotguns, the Magnums (magna?), the AR, and the SMG were displayed on the _sides_ of the screen, which made it difficult to aim with them. By contrast, all those weapons in Infinity are displayed at the center of the screen. Well there is an option (under prefereces) where you can tell the UT engine to place a weapon on the right (default), left, or.... center. I personally like this setup much better. Aside from being marathon-like, it makes it easier to aim. YMMV
Cheers,
