文章太长，没法全文翻译，不到位的地方请多包涵……

So it's been a while since the last weekly, and we sincerely are sorry for that, but now it's a new year, a fresh start for the weekly, and we hope that it will be a great year.

XJ's Weekly #68

So here's a summery of the most interesting happenings from last year.
本期weekly主要是总结一下08年的各种事情

02/01 2008
Xtreme-jumps and KZ-scandinavia announced a big tournament, actually, it's the biggest tournament so far in kz history, and the amazing price money of $250. And *drum roll*, the jumper that took it all home was brian. Amazing performance we got to say, and he ended up with 92 points, and took home the grand prize of 150 dollars. Second place was taken by the amazing but laid back jumper Zhady, for his performance and second place he got 75 dollars. And third but not least Flibo impressed us all with his jumping skills and took home the price of 25 dollars.
年初XJ与kzsca合办了一个什么比赛，总奖金$250，brian第一拿到$150，zhady第二$75，第三flibo拿走剩下的$25……

05/01 2008
The much appreciated kz_sandblock and kz_sandblock_ez ****ed and got a baby, kz_sandblock2. The map once again was the hardest kz map ever made, just as the first one, and people struggled to record the map for several months, the person who came out top was flaip, with a time of fifteen minutes and thirty six seconds. Get the demo here.
Anyway the mappers Moxx and s0lid worked very hard to make the map look good but at the same time have full fps for users with bad computers, and they succeeded!
kz_sandblock跟kz_sandblock_ez f**k后产下当时的世界第一难图kz_sandblock2……经过玩家们痛苦的努力，最后WR由flaip拿下，时间是15分36秒。为了同时确保地图的美观与FPS，Moxx和s0lid进行了艰苦的工作，最终他们成功了！

23/01 2008
Xtremejumps was in a bit of trouble and needed help to keep the website and service running, any donations are a great help, you can still donate and get VIP on the website. Donate


26/01 2008
Moxx announced that there would be a new mapping competition, for a new long jump map. There had been over two years since the last long jump map. And the old one was very popular, but it didn't include blocks for the later found technique count jump. The competition was about keeping the spirit alive for the longjumpers all over the globe with a new, good looking and functional map.


31/01 2008
ndR put together an article about addictions, and how kz can make you addicted, along with other things. Very interesting to read, and it makes you think. Addicted?
ndR写了篇KZ如何让人上瘾的文章，英文不好者勿看

03/02 2008
eDark had performed an extensive analysis of all of omg0s demos, and it was proved that he had used slow motion hack. And sadly it was proven that Kulspruta was using slowmotion hack aswell. Sad to see.
Both were permanently banned from Xtremejumps.
原来与slowmo的斗争很早就开始了，eDark胜利，查处了两个作弊者

25/02 2008
oTcHeTo submitted a 257 long jump, but it was proved that he used an illegal setting to achieve such a long distance. The side speed setting he used caused him to achieve about one more unit prestrafe increase.
In addition to that, eDark is creating a new program that will detect any setting that has been changed either by the server itself or through amxx. It's a really wonderful thing to see how we are stepping closer and closer to a cheat proof community.

The sidespeed setting isn't affecting the normal running speed, it affects the division of the running speed. For example, cl_sidespeed 400 is 50% sideways and 50% forward of the total speed. To keep this ratio sidespeed and forward speed must be the same value. Which makes it easier to prestrafe with the setting because your prestrafe doesen't have to be perfect to achieve a high number.

oTcHeTo recieved a warning, because at the time there was no rule that prevented the use of other values. However, after this, a new rule popped up, to prevent this.
oTcHeTo的257LJ使用了一个非法参数，效果是提高助跑速度。他打了个擦边球，没被ban，运气相当不错

16/02 2008
Gangien released his program called KZ Updater.

Imagine if you could download maps you dont have, extract them and copy them into the right folder, with only 1 click.
Now you finally can, thanks to our own master Gangien. He have been working hard on getting this program the functionality it needs, and now it's finally ready for the public. (He knows the program is ugly) But the functionality is great!
KZ Updater


01/04 2008
Xtremejumps made a first of April joke about removing all of the long jumps on the page, of course this wasn't true, but it did however change Xtremejumps mind about long jumps and they decided to cut the section down a bit.


15/04 2008
A public vote for the new long jump map was published, there was three final maps that were in the final vote. Moxx, thopa and 8ball1 were the mappers. All the maps looked great, but only one map could be the chosen, 8ball1 stepped out on top with his top notch long jump map.
kz_longjumps2
经过投票，让无数人废寝忘食的longjumps2最终确定使用8ball1的版本

18/04 2008
Brian the movie was released, published by raver. Brian the movie
Brian the movie！！！！！如果没看过赶紧面壁去~

23/04 2008
A new warning system was invented for Xtremejumps.
All warnings will be active for 1 month and the icon will be placed by your name. After 1 month, the warning is removed as well as the icon. If you are warned again a 2nd time, within a 1 month period, you will be banned for 1 week. A 3rd offense will result in a permanent ban. Warnings


11/05 2008
Xtremejumps announced another comptetition, this time it's called Xtremejumps Prochallenge, it contained maps specifically made for this challenge. It included four different challenges at different maps, each for a different skill. Precision, long jump, speed and bunny hop.
In this challenge SuPa came out on top, followed by brian and Flibo.
Amazing performance, and good job to all participants.
Prochallenge做了4期，前三名分别是supa、brian和flibo。我清楚地记得heL与zhady在prochallenge_speed上的精彩平局，大多数人都跳不过第一段的绝世极限图prochallenge_bhop，mjuuh在prochallenge_longjump上的爆红表演，以及最终帮助supa最终夺冠的prochallenge_precision……因为没有合适的mapper而早早结束，希望以后还能再续前缘~

28/7 2008
Xtremejumps found out that their beloved anti cheat program FPS-Death had been leaked, this was a big setback for communities all over the world, since they decided to not let national communities use the program any more.
FPS-Death管理员版本泄露，导致这个反作弊利器的后续版本再也不提供给其它KZ社区使用，估计XJ中有它的人也寥寥无几

08/08 2008
Brian the movie 2 got released, it was a real pleasure for the eyes.

Brian the Movie 2, encoded in the XviD codec, amazed our eyes and dazed our brains for about four minutes and fifteen seconds. It features Brian with his new and improved skills, through the artistic eye of 8ball1. We just have to say that this really presents the artistic side of kz and movie editing. This movie is simply amazing, or as the French would say – Magnifique. Four minutes and fifteen seconds of awesomeness: some new jumps, some new twists on old jumps from Brian the Movie, and of course some really neat editing. The movie could have been longer, but perhaps its length compliments it in a way.
You end up hungry for more.
一部非常有影响力的视频，高阶技巧小跳缓冲从此逐步被广大玩家应用到实战和视频当中

09/09 2008
A new technique was found by eDark, it was the double count jump.

It was time again for another revolutionary step in the kz-scene, the new improved Double Count jump, executed by the legendary Fact or Fiction. In our opinion the Double Count jump is one of the last finishing touches on the Count jump technique. With this new technique it’s now possible to reach a prestrafe of 299 unit/s without any special type of block. This means that the Double count jump becomes similar to the drop down long jump.
This new technique is really really hard to execute even on kz_longjumps2, but it’s possible.
On this note, this means that this is one of the final steps in reaching the longest jumping distance possible in the Half life engine.
267 Countjump
DCJ被eDark发现，通过两次小跳地速能达到299，所以跟高处落下的LJ能达到的距离差不多。现在应该叫做Multi Count Jumps了。

12/09 2008
A video guide by esilo was released, it contained information on how to do several trickjumps on the famous de_inferno map, for example it shows how to perform the jump in the middle, to the roof. Inferno trickjumps
inferno上的各种跳点，我一直没成功lj上中间的房檐……

22/10 2008
Silky smoth sugar was released, by the three known jumpers Moxx omilo and JAy, it contained only edge bugs.
Through trials and tribulations the three amigos have dedicated many endless hours to pursue the dream of creating a funny and decent movie. This is the result; for the next ~7 minutes you can enjoy some great edge bugs.

Silky smooth sugar, encoded in the x264 codec, will amaze your eyes and daze your brain for about seven minutes and twenty seconds. It features Moxx, JAy & omilo with their edgebugging skills.
So to see this movie, make sure you have the right codec. I recommend CoreAVC.
Silky smooth sugar是一部精彩的EB视频

At the twenty forth of Oktober 2008
Cordyline - The Movie was released. We all know what Cordyline is capable of when the goal is beating world records, but the majority of us haven't seen his trickjumping skills. This movie features Cordyline at his current prime, fused with Spaniolus smooth moviemaking skills. They both have spent alot of time perfecting their part of this movie, and the result is 6:30 minutes long and weights 194Mb.


27/10 2008
k3G & wRath - The rising was released.
This movie is made by the talented movie maker who got most of his movie making skills by making a lot of battle movies. I'm talking about boom.dll of course. The movie is about two jumpers from the opposite side of the world. k3g is from China and wRath is from Norway, <->.
k3G和wRath的视频，作者是制作了很多battle movie的boom.dll

28/10 2008
A project that had been running for about a year got released, I'm of course talking about the kz_xj_communityblock, but it later got taken back due some bugs.
变态图kz_xj_communityblock发布，现在什么情况我也不清楚，XJ上的投票摆很长时间了……

03/11 2008
A movie about ndR got released, made by the mighty mastakilla. The movie was about making a trick movie with tricks that he liked, it didn't matter if they were new or hard. Ended up pretty damn sweet if you ask us.
ndR movie


16/11 2008
oTcHeTo proved that he can jump without "illegal" settings, and pushing the limit just slightly further, he made a new world record in long jumps. He jumped 256 units, with a prestrafe speed of 275.088 and a top speed of 343.753, Amazing, just amazing. Movie
oTcHeTo终于用一个完全符合规定的demo突破256单位，创造了lj历史。（如今已被heat超过）

30/12 2008
The new version of KZMOD got released, and the update 4.1 for it. Soulfather and his team has been working for a long time, and we got to tell you, they've come a long way with this latest update, the feeling is almost the same as regular 1.6 jumping, except better graphics.

KZMOD好像是非Valve开发的基于HL2的Mod，图像质量显著提升（配置要求肯定“进步”更大-,-），以后的趋势也许是这个





And we go on to the top five demos of each month:
每月最精彩的5个demo，见仁见智的评选……

January

brian
kz_facility done in 01:50 ( 01:55 zhady )    经典demo啊，可惜现在被神奇的heL拿下了

Bibo
bkz_goldbhop done in 01:35 ( 01:36 Bibo )    这个也经典的没话说

Cordyline
kz_kzse_dustbhop done in 02:05 ( 02:08 Z0ck3rOO7 )    原来cordyline争过这张图，反正现在归shNz咯

Bunkka
clintmo_falling done in 01:21 ( 01:22 Bunkka )

Micron
kz_tropiclimb_b01 done in 03:27 ( 03:28 brian )    好像Supa冲Top1时拿下了这张图

February

tarGet
kz_ea_goldenblock done in 05:04 ( 05:20 loty )    又是一个被heL拿下的经典图

KNiFEAR
kz_stonehenge done in 02:35 ( 02:38 Trickster )    作弊者$iw被清理后此图又回到了Trickster手中

omilo
kzarg_bhopcircuit done in 01:01 ( 01:04 chrizZo )    当时的chrizZo没现在这么强大吧

SuPa
kznl_mountainpass done in 01:55 ( 02:00 SuPa )

Bibo
kzse_bhopblock done in 00:15 ( 00:29 Bibo )    连走3个超难捷径，实在是经典……

March

brian
kzno_xtremeblock done in 02:08 ( 02:12 zhady )    虽然后来出现飞天大捷径，不过brian这个Demo在流畅性上无人能及

kz_xj_mountez done in 01:18 ( 01:19 brian )    永远的经典了

zhady
kz_sandblock_ez done in 04:59 ( 05:05 zhady )

SuPa
kz_cfl_mountainchurch done in 00:46 ( 00:47 emmalahana )    被做成对战视频了，如果我没记错的话SuPa后来又自刷了1秒

heL^_x
j2s_4floors done in 02:13 ( 02:14 brian )    自刷后仍被怪才kunqui夺走，叹息一声

April

StromZz
clintmo_bhopbarrels done in 00:21 ( 00:22 sj^ )

brian
bn_tombbhop done in 02:35 ( 02:48 brian )    不知道为什么heL拿下此图的demo没上榜

kz_wsp_valleyclimb done in 01:19 ( 01:20 tarGet )    因为simen刷图比赛，跳过这张图的不少吧

Fact or Fiction
kz_jumprun done in 01:11 ( 01:13 Z0ck3rOO7 )

Pitter
kz_megabhop done in 01:40 ( 01:41 Pitter )    Cordyline与cheche都没上榜，pitter面子不小呀

May

heat
drewbie_longjumps done in 00:27 ( 00:28 heat )    heat是如今的LJ第一人，可惜在这张图上被mjuuh无情地击败了

brian
kz_dalai_rats done in 01:12 ( 01:14 Dogos )    这个WR一直保存到现在，感觉最有可能突破它的人是kunqui

chriZzo
risk_ministry done in 01:15 ( 01:28 sj^ )    有人觊觎这张图，chrizZo受刺激之下研究出爬墙捷径新走法，刷到1:10。说起来他好像挺擅长爬墙的，最近争夺了好几回的kz_toscana与刚被ndR用超级滑坡捷径刷走的kz_exn_ezjungle上都有他的足迹。如果试试两张alpin也许有奇效~

JAy
kzfr_bhop_lamborghini done in 00:18 ( 00:19 donakos )

Cordyline
clintmo_bhoptoon done in 00:36 ( 00:37 ScooteR )

cg_islands done in 00:59 ( 01:01 ndR )

flaip
kz_sandblock2 done in 15:36 ( 21:43 Bibo )    呵呵，能跳完SB2都是好样的，更别说裸进半小时了……

zhady
kznl_mountainpass done in 01:48 ( 01:55 SuPa )    当时觉得非常完美，不过现在被SuPa刷回3秒

brian
dg_winterclimb done in 00:58 ( 00:59 Cordyline )    姜还是老的辣！

Nas
dr0_cliffside done in 01:59 ( 02:00 zhady )    好不容易抠1秒出来，最近又被人硬生生地1秒抠走……

July

brian
av_degyptianez done in 02:57 ( 03:00 chrizZo )    这张图发布后brian一锤定音，容不得chrizZo挑战他的权威，3秒刷回。现在的WR是kunqui的2分54秒，估计很快能刷到2分50。

zhady
kz_cg_extreme done in 09:02 ( 09:21 zhady )    不知道世上有几个人能把这图裸进10分钟

Flibo
kz_6fd_volcano done in 01:42 ( 01:45 soul|ftw )    跳老图时很怕被wallbug卡住，但这么恼人的问题居然也能成为刷图技巧

soul|ftw
kz_ea_caveclimb_h done in 05:18 ( 05:20 T3dBundy )    soul|ftw狂刷一阵子后T3d只剩一个WR了，他还会回来吗？

mjuuh
kz_jumprun done in 01:01 ( 01:07 zhady )    mjuuh开始发飙，个人秀从此开始

August

brian
kz_cliffez done in 01:33 ( 01:35 Cordyline )    再次给Cordyline迎头一击，展现霸王风采

zr_minimountain done in 00:40 ( 00:41 Flibo )    也没忘记教训一下嚣张的Flibo，自刷N次又怎样？brian肯定能夺走！

mjuuh
drewbie_longjumps done in 00:24 ( 00:26 mjuuh )    稳稳拿下，再没悬念

kz_jumprun done in 00:54 ( 00:55 mjuuh )     XJ上对这张图没什么特色的图是否有资格成为官方图产生过争议，但最终解释权是好东西，再大的浪都能压下去……进1分钟后再也没人能跟mjuuh竞争，以后是否还会自刷全凭他的性趣了。

SilverNinja
kz_sandblock2_ez done in 06:45 ( 07:05 sKiCg )    sKiCg别忘记这张图，哪天刷回来啊？

September

Bibo
cg_cbblebhop done in 01:15 ( 01:16 mjuuh )    Bibo自己也说这个demo不好，但既然莫名其妙刷去1秒，不传白不传~

cg_coldbhop_v2 done in 00:56 ( 00:58 Z0ck3rOO7 )    实在不敢说这张图已经刷到极限，不可能一次次地被突破

kzse_bhopblock done in 00:14 ( 00:15 Bibo )    Bibo一出谁与争锋，终成千古绝唱

soul|ftw
kz_xj_3ways[xtreme] done in 04:17 ( 04:29 brian )    1失误完成极限图，这个WR恐怕能保存相当长一段时间了

kz_sandblock done in 05:37 ( 05:54 007 )    当年007刷T3d震惊了KZ界，soul|ftw完美的表演再次带来震撼

October

SuPa
kz_man_streetclimb done in 03:12 ( 03:26 Supa )    SuPa扒了T3d的老底，高难度捷径+无失误，非常漂亮

kz_faw_cathedral_h done in 02:00 ( 02:01 Bibo )    刷得Bibo有苦说不出啊

fact or Fiction
kzno_xtremeblock done in 02:00 ( 02:04 Fact or Fiction )    再加把劲刷进2分钟吧，我期待着！

SilverNinja
kz_underblock done in 10:00 ( 10:36 Jurpo )

mjuuh
cg_cbblebhop done in 01:13 ( 01:15 Bibo )    这种图确实是mjuuh的强项，连Bibo都难以阻挡他

November

zhady
kz_man_terablock[hard] done in 04:01 ( 04:08 brian )    看Demo吧，一切尽在不言中

mjuuh
kzarg_bhopcircuit done in 00:59 ( 01:00 mjuuh )
kz_cg_xtremedesert done in 03:28 ( 03:34 zhady )
结构简单，需要极限水平LJ、CJ的bhop图太适合mjuuh了，没人争得过他

shNz
kz_kzse_dustbhop done in 01:54 ( 01:58 brian )    昨天看到shNz过了246 bhoplj，恭喜这位只刷变态人物之极限WR的猛男

kunqui
j2s_westbl0ck done in 02:59 ( 03:00 brian )    这张图上的龙争虎斗太精彩了，还有超变态捷径没走，离理论极限估计有5秒吧

December

zhady
kz_cellblock done in 03:37 ( 03:43 brian )    一直期待归来的zhady与半隐退的brian擦出激情火花，zhady攻了两回brian甘当受，最终变成俩人gay了平时不出现，偶尔一齐刷别人的局面。现实太残酷了！！！！

kunqui
bkz_goldbhop done in 01:34 ( 01:35 Bibo )   
j2s_4floors done in 02:08 ( 02:10 heL^_x )
kunqui突破极限的本事太强大了，最近还刷了zhady的bkz_wallblock

mjuuh
kz_shrubhop_h done in 01:18 ( 01:21 Cordyline )    可怕的跨幅bhop能力……这图还有能省5秒的梯子捷径，但估计也是只能用来YY了
kz_ea_beneath_h done in 02:52 ( 03:00 heL^_x )    走别人不能走的大捷径，其它地方慢点不怕不怕啦


And we go on to the top map of each month:
下面是每月最佳地图

January


kz_sandblock2 by Moxx and s0lid

The sequel to the all famous kz_sandblock. The most played kz map in history. It brought a new level of difficulty to the KZ scene. Well now it's given birth. It will keep pushing the limits of KZ:
SB2嘛谁也别跟它争了……

February

kz_heat by s0lid

Another wonderful map by s0lid. Is there anything this guy can't do. This map can be compared to the super oldschool map kz_6fd_volcano. But new modern mapping techniques have brought out the best in this map.
对这张图没什么印象，看了一下WR是Flibo的，还是没想起来……

March

kz_mto_gerudofortress by mentalo

The classic Zelda game comes to KZ. Who else could have achieved this but mentalo. The map making machine impresses us again. The atmosphere mixed with the music makes perfection.
现在WR是sKiCg的呃

April

kz_conveyor by clair


A different style of map this time by the well known mappers clair. Clair changes the game here with a new style of jumping. Forget the old block to block crap, this is the shit now!
晕，又是没印象的图

May

kz_kzsca_toonworld2 by aegget

The long awaited sequel to kz_kzse_toonworld arrived in May. The fun toon style map was more than what most players expected.
希望越大失望就越大，这图比起第一代来说受欢迎程度明显小得多

June

kz_dimblock by PuppetZ

PuppetZ's first KZ map. How is it possible for him to make such a great map first time round. Only PuppetZ can answer that. This map took on the best of the best and won. Dare you try it out?
居然是PuppetZ的处女作，很无语啊


July

kz_kzlv_wanderer by Pieshels & akkord

A dark mysterious map. You try to find your way through the foggy mist. You have no idea where to go. Your completely lost. You are scared. Feel empty inside. What map are you playing? It must be wanderer
我连第一段都跳不过去，另外什么样的配置才能在最后一段bhop不掉fps呢？但没什么能阻止我喜欢这张美仑美幻的图~

August

prochallenge_precision by radon

This month saw sadly no maps from the community. But that doesnt mean we had one great map to play. You either loves these damn spikes or hate them.
净是跳尖尖，菊花疼啊

September

kz_deathvalley by raver

Another b-e-a-utiful map from raver. Or mabye beautiful isn't the right word. The cold rain and dark dingy map makes for one great experience.
很有悬疑小说意境的图，成为chrizZo的个人bhop秀场

October

kz_pit by ovi

Ovi returns with a great block map. The feeling of this map is different to many other maps. Jump through a few different rooms before reaching the end.
叫好不叫座

November


Sadly no maps came to us this fine month.


December


fof_utopia by Fact or Fiction


FoF will always amaze us with wonderful new artistic looking maps. Jump through this short fairland style speed map, scoring as many bhop combos as you can!
又是一张chrizZo的图，kunqui暂时放弃，以后会怎样太难说了

kzsca_dawn和kzsca_burrow都是好图，这两张图的WR都是好demo，不知为什么落选


That was all for this week folks, stay tuned shortly for another weekly with more current news, hope you enjoyed!
