*STRAFE JUMPING

Strafe jumping is used in a lot of the demos on this site, and can be used to jump further to reach new places. However, a lot of people have problems with stafe jumping when they first start. A short summary of strafe jumping would be that you gain extra speed by flicking your mouse in the direction you want to land, while strafing and moving forward. You should flick the mouse fairly fast otherwise you won't gain enough speed, but at the same time it should not be too sudden. It's not too difficult once you get the hang of it, it's simply a case of practicing and eventually you'll get used to the movement. 




* 255+ jumping

You can jump up to 255units, using the method of jumping shown in the general strafe jumping tutorial. But to get further requires a 'new' strafe jumping technique, which is actually the proper way to strafe jump in Quake 3. Since COD uses the Quake 3 engine, doing these strafe jumps is no different.

The first change is that you have to strafe jump at 90 degree angles. So first line youself up parallel to where you want to jump. Don't stand too near the edge either since you need a tiny bit of room to turn the 90 degrees. The next step is the run up which can be long or short its just comes down to personal preference. Now the next bit is very important, the moment you start turning the mouse you must hold down the strafe key. You should start moving to the side very fast and you should feel yourself picking up speed before you take off. The movement of the mouse should only be horizontal, and is mainly used to help you turn quickly and line up the jump. So after you start moving the mouse while holding the strafe key you should be lined up for the jump in a split second. So when you are right at the edge of the platform jump, I think the only keys you need to hold are forward and the strafe key when you are in the air.

Well thats all there is to it really, if you want more practice go and play the Quake 3 mod Defrag, or watch these demos which go from 256-260.
