You don't need to post your question 3 times. It's annoying.

Hi, just downloaded cube...
I have an Win2K SP2(I think ;) ), P3 750, 384mb RAM, NVGeF256 32DDR....
anyhow, while starting up the last log line outputed to the win console used for the log is
init: video: mode
after which I force end the task...
then I get a error message that the program is being debuged...
at that point on the win console there is additional output with the last line being:
init: sound
what could this be?

A poor download of a zip file rarely leads to poor unziped content. It will usually make it impossible to unzip instead (thats the 'problem' with compression).

#8: enet |

yeah, I know its not a bad download.
looking at the source I can see that the problem is in the initsound() func. while the initialization is going on... that’s all before the mainloop begins.
but, no messages are reported in case of incompatibility... instead the engine just stops reacting... does anyone have any idea on how to fix this...
btw. I have one more question. I just looked at the source for a couple of minutes and it seems to me that the enet section of cube is built separately and represents the server. Am I right? I’m assuming this because there are two win32.c files in both the enet directory and main cube source directory, and even though I never had the need to use makefiles I can sort of read at and notice that there are two bins that are compiled.I also might be very wrong :).
Also today I read somewhere that the enet portion was done by some Carnegie guy, and was really praised by the cube author. Now Im not sure about this because I was just so excited that I "discovered" Cube today ;)and so I was basically just rushing through all the texts on it that I could find not remebering half of it;).
I must admit that network low-level functioning is the weakest point of my computer knowledge, so, could someone tell me if there are any features of this networking lib that make enet exciting... cause if there are it might be the reason for me to finally sit down for a couple of weeks and really understand network functioning...
thank you, I hope someone finds the time to answer my questions.
ah, also, 'oyoaha's' link to his sources and dsw files is not workin, just to mention it...

From what I understand from the code, it's optimized for passing around small values (which is most of the time). Also, and I don't know if this is a feature of enet or the code structure of Cube, it's easy as hell to add new message types with any number of parameters you like.

the messages (addmsg() etc) are part of cube's client-server code, not enet. Enet includes all code that starts with, um, enet_.
Eihrul has done a great job with enet. It is a small library that does exactly what you want, especially given there are hardly any alternatives.

Judging by what I've seen so far, the primary purpose of ENet is to be easily portable between platforms. You can use BSD sockets on any *NIX-like system, of course, but M$ screwed as always, and made their API similar, but incompatible. So either you have to use some kind of wrapper, or fill your code with #ifdef's.
As for the Makefile - it's for Linux. Windows version doesn't have a separate binary for the dedicated server, you just use a command-line switch (RTFM).
Your problem might be with drivers. Are you sure you have the latest ones installed and all?

You need SDL and it looks like you don't have it.

I just discoverd this program today. I was shocked to see that their are actual 3d game engines out there without me knowing. To think I am finding this as soon as school starts.I spent most of the summer working with rm2k and got bored of it.
but anyway..I have the same problem as the original poster. I downloaded the file of of one of the mirror things and I can't get it to open! the readme file says to open the bat but it makes a black screen pop up for a split second and then disapears!! I tried following your instructions but its really confusing and im a newbie. so could anyone send me a very easy step by step file on whats wrong and how to open etc.. as I said I don't have much time since schools starting so I don't wanna spend 20hours figuring out how to open it!! is there another download source asides from the main page that might work? im redownloading it but I have no idea whats the problem or how to open so if someone could explain or even better mail me I would be soooo thankfull.

Open a command prompt from that folder and then run the bat. You'll be able to read what the error message is.
