#10930: performance

by Osbios on 07/16/2008 16:03

All settings on max (AA and anisotropic filter on 16) I still have good framerate on my Geforce 9600 GT. And that is just a modern middle-class card.

But without shaders you still get good performance even with old cards like the FX serie.

Perhaps runing /genpvs over some of the old maps would help the low-end hardware.

Yeah, because on said older hardware it won't take months to the the PVS generation. :P

It takes long enough for the mid-size maps on my 2.66 GHz dual-core Pentium D. (And yes, I set pvsthreads to 2.)

No, I mean for the next release (There is one... is there? =_=)
Somebody run PVS over all old maps that can be improved by it and put it in the next release.

#10933: server options?

by {CK}Psycho[LOL] on 07/17/2008 02:03

well I was wondering if there was a way to customize a server like make it so you could jump higher than normal or run faster or shoot faster and cause more damage? Is it possible?

Yes, but you can't register it on the official server list. The way you customize it is by editing the C++ source and recompiling; there is no server-side scripting.

i think its interesting that he wants to make you run faster and jump higher. most people who ask things like that want the opposite...

#10937: Requirements

by Siedlerchr on 07/17/2008 20:58

Hi,

what are the minimum requirements for the Sauerbraten CTF edition?
In ctf edition I get only 1fps with my video card (ATI Radedon 9250), the version before works finde with 64 fps.

So which requirements should a video card for Sauerbraten have ?

Did you try to disable shaders? I'm not sure about it, but I think shaders were enabled by default. So all GPUs that support shaders will use it even the (too) slow one.

Also make sure you're using current drivers.

i fps means his open gl driver is not working and its running in software mode (fix reinstall the drivers)

#10941: Re: Requirements

by Quin on 07/18/2008 08:14, refers to #10937

I use a R9550, try this..

In autoexec.cfg (create if needed):

waterreflect 0
waterrefract 0
waterfallenv 0
waterfallrefract 0
glare 0

Then if you're still a little slow (I am with 512mb of ram), in your shell/batch file add "-f0" so it looks kinda like:

sauerbraten -w640 -h480 -f0

ulysses (aka reaper), I already answered your question. Server on Mac:

- Launch the Sauerbraten Launcher, choose the Server tab, set your values.

- make sure your router forwards ports 28785 (UDP) and 28786 (UDP) to your LAN IP.

- done

#10945: Confused...

by Titanic12ship on 07/18/2008 16:13

Hi, i'm a little confused about .obj files. Can you they be imported into Sauer as mapmodels? If they can, how do you import them? If they can't, then what are they for?

reply to this message

#10946: Re: Confused...

by SheeEttin on 07/18/2008 16:57, refers to #10945

Yes.
Probably with the /mmodel command.
http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editref.html#mmodel

I believe there are some OBJ models in use somewhere (in Sauer, that is). Try basing your model CFG on them.

#10948: attack command in "onrelease []"

by -Redon- on 07/18/2008 20:56

Hello, i have another question^^
I wanted to try a bind on mouse1. It should work like this: If i click, it activates the zoom command after 0.6 seconds, and it shoots when i release the mouse1 key. Everything works, but the attack command doesnt.
Isnt it possible to use the attack command in onrelease []?

this is the bind:

alias zoomattacksleep 0
alias zoomattack 0

bind mouse1 [
zoomattacksleep = 1
sleep 600 [
if (= $zoomattacksleep 1) [
zoom 1
//sound 66
zoomattack = 1
]
]
onrelease [
attack
if (= $zoomattack 1) [
zoom 0
sound 67
zoomattack = 0
]
zoomattacksleep = 0
]
]

by tman_elite on 07/18/2008 22:46, refers to #10948

I tried something a little different with the same problem. I wanted to bind a key to save the current weapon id as a variable, switch to the grenade launcher, launch a grenade, then switch back to the original weapon id. It all worked except the attack command apparently can't be used within other series of commands.
