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.

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?

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??

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.

Press ^V then press ^L in a terminal to write a raw control character. The escape sequence id "\f". There are colour sequences in data/menus.cfg too.

Any way to type that character on Mac? TextEdit and Xcode interpret it as a newline command.

by a~baby~rabbit on 08/31/2008 04:29, refers to #11235

On a Mac (without downloading anything else) try vi or vim from the command line - you can just type ctrl-L straight into the file...

#11237: Re: Master server

by SheeEttin on 08/31/2008 06:31, refers to #11234

You could:
- Use the server browser, or
- Ask the master server.

For the latter, you'd have to consult the source for querying (or ask for documentation), though this'd probably be beyond a mere menu...

#11238: Making the players look different

by Logbomber on 08/31/2008 18:21

Would it be possible for a future update to allow players in multiplayer to make a choice between the 3 available players so the other players can actually look different?

Without seeing your script it's hard to say what the problem is. Please post so someone can help. The cube script command "guicheckbox" should do what you need.
