#10779: Re: install 64bit sauer ctf

by Quin on 06/27/2008 04:10, refers to #10778

That's an issue for your software vendor, try nudging the package maintainer to submit an update to CTF edition. You might also want to check the Ubuntu docs to see how to change from the stable branch to the testing/unstable branch of your packages, where CTF edition may currently be for you.

The version in the repos (Hardy, at least) is still Assassin.

The script provided in the package sets -q"$HOME/.sauerbraten", so you should be able to upgrade and not lose anything. (I would recommend removing ~/.sauerbraten/config.cfg after moving any necessary customizations to ~/.sauerbraten/autoexec.cfg.)

I stopped using the version from the repos a long time ago. It just got too weird.

I mentioned a while back about maintaning debs for easy, stable update... Should I assume there is interest in this?

I've tried nudging the Ubuntu package maintainer to keep Sauer current, and even volunteered to take over or help, but I never got a reply. Best bet on Ubuntu is to get used to downloading from Sourceforge.

i would like to use debs, but all of the official ones in SF are i286, not 64bit (x86 i think)

#10783: Saving custom maps

You installed Sauerbraten somewhere requiring root permissions to write to. Most likely you've used a deb of some sort. You'll either have to run Sauerbraten with sudo every time or install to somewhere with the proper permissions (home folder).

Another alternative is to pass the -q (home folder) option as an argument on the command line, so that you don't have to mess around with the permissions of the original game data. Something like -q"/home/smitty_rox/path/to/home/sauer/dir" (assuming you're using linux)

So you'll have to compile it yourself.

Get 'build-essential' and anything to do with SDL (sdl-mixer and sdl-image at least) and opengl (make sure to get the xxxx-dev versions) and then open a terminal, go to /your/sauerbraten/directory/src and type 'sudo make install'

And wait for a bit.

Download it.
Extract it.
Run it (depending on your platform you may need to compile it but we don't know because you were so vague).

#10789: Re: linux

Which distribution? Depending on your distribution, your package manager might already have Sauerbraten in their repositories.

#10791: Port Forwarding on an Apple Airport

by Audacitor on 06/28/2008 17:46

My router is an Apple Time Capsule, which is basically a router/backup device in one. Setting up forwarding is very easy, but I need to tell it what kind of traffic to expect.

My options are:
Personal File Sharing (ftp on a lan)
Personal Web Sharing (http)
Remote Login (ssh)
FTP (on a wan)
Remote Desktop (vnc)
POP mail (optional ssl)
IMAP mail (optional ssl)
Jabber (chat protocol)

#10792: config for controller

by czarthp on 06/28/2008 19:14

I am try to config to a controller and can't figure out how. I don't see joystick under options, does anyone have a tutorial for doing this?

#10793: Re: Port Forwarding on an Apple Airport

by SheeEttin on 06/28/2008 20:19, refers to #10791

People recommend portforward.com, so I checked there.
There's a guide on the Apple Airport Extreme... (For some moronic reason, there's a guide for each and every application. I chose HTTP, because Sauer is the only thing not on the list.) It's here: http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Apple/AirPortExtreme/HTTP.htm

See if that applies to your router. (The ports you want to forward are 28785 and 28786, both UDP. Poke around for a UDP option.)

There's a thing on Quadropolis, though it's kind of old. No idea how well it works, if at all. YOu can try it, though.

by Quin on 06/29/2008 07:03, refers to #10795

Well, once and for all, there are instructions on including the joypad support with your own mods, including detailed steps on where to add pieces of code.

Sure, the code has changed somewhat, but it wouldn't take a genius to figure out where it would go now. I know the original author doesn't have time for maintaining it, but perhaps somebody else does.
