#11213: Re: Another Sauerbraten Article

I hate that the author turned ALL visual effects off but then complained that it's "lacking in the graphics department." People are going to assume the graphics of the screenshots he provided are as good as it gets.

I noticed that the screens were pretty poor too. Maybe we should email him some better ones, in a friendly "hey I think these would be more true to the game" kind of way?

Short answer, no. Long answer, yes - if you're willing to code.

#11217: poor fps

by Erabhin on 08/28/2008 00:06

Hi I recently installed saurebreten on a windows xp machine. I get a terrible framerate (in the range of .5-2 fps) to the degree that it's unplayable. I tried lowering the gfx and res options down all the way and it seemed to have no effect on fps. This computer should be able to handle saurebreten, as I have had it work just fine in the past

Do you mean cheats or secrets? If you mean cheats, try Google searching: sauerbraten cheats; if secrets: sauerbraten secrets

I don't know what you mean by secrets...Commands? If so, search 'sauerbraten command reference' on Google and click on the first one.

Please don't help people find cheats, it is contrary to the community's best interests to have a heap of cheaters online.

#11225: Third Person Games?

by XeroWolf on 08/28/2008 12:03

Hello all,
I was doing some research on freeware game engines and Cube 2. From want I've seen so far it is mainly a FPS engine. So I would like to know if it's possible to make third person games with it as well.
Thanks.

You can make whatever you can imagine.

I think marble arena is base on sauerbraten as well. (if it is, it certainly does not get mentioned anywhere)

I'm pretty sure pressing 9 turns on third person. So just turn on the third person variable in your mod and prevent the player from turning it off.

Cool thanks a lot. I have to do some reading up on the docs.

#11230: Text?

by Psycho on 08/30/2008 07:52

Is there anything you can do with text besides loop it..like can you color it or make it bigger?? ANYTHING you know of that you can do with text in multiplayer??

reply to this message

#11231: Re: Text?

by JadeMatrix on 08/30/2008 16:07, refers to #11230

You can color it. It requires a special symbol (ctrl-L on Linux, I hear) followed by a number. Each number has a pre-defined color associated with it. Look it up in the docs. As far as size, that would need a code mod.

You can copy it out of one of the 4b CFGs, or right here:

Not sure if that'll be the same once it's gone through the intertubes, though.

I'm also curious to know how you're supposed to use Ctrl-L to enter it... Looking at 4b1.cfg in vim, I can see that the escape sequence is ^L, but I have no idea where to press it... ^L in a terminal clears the screen.
