in the root of your sauerbraten directory, last I checked

note it's completely untextured, has no normals, has no UV mapping, has no lighting (as which is probably obvious due to being untextured), it's just a mesh :)

@-Redon-: Just rename the .BAK file to .ogz

@Botklid: It's easier to just turn off the volume on the in-game music, and turn on a music player like Winamp or whatever you prefer before starting up the game

Are you sure you want to, because it's going to require typing without typos. None. So if you're prone to making eginge > engine mistakes, you might not want to try this.

#11316: Menu

by Botklid on 09/30/2008 16:50

Is there any way to create a normal in-game menu before game is loading the first level...and another question is there any way to make a video before the level?

#11317: Re: Menu

There was a lot of discussion about your first question recently... I'm not sure what became of it.

As for your second question, no, not yet. You might be able to work something out yourself using the code created by offtools. I'm not sure how hard that'd be though, I haven't played with his code.

#11318: Re: Menu

by Quin on 10/01/2008 05:22, refers to #11316

It requires a substantial rewrite of the engine to pull off, but it is possible. Blood Frontier used to have this as its default behaviour for a while, but it was decided that it was best to throw the player into a map (and hence we also made the lobby).

One can still get the old menu in BF before loading by setting "autoconnect" to '0' (if BF is not given a server to connect to, it usually tries to connect to localhost - much like the old quake games did).

I don't know how much that helps, quite a bit has gone into Blood Frontier to pull off the more fancy stuff - like the loading backgrounds which are also used when no map is "active" to achieve a sort of "title screen" effect. You're welcome to glean bits of code from it though, if you can.

#11319: share

by Botklid on 10/01/2008 16:14

Is the cube2 is opensource and fully freeware does that means that we can make a game and make it shareware?

Read this:
http://sauerbraten.org/README.html#license

"If you want to produce new content with the sauerbraten engine, you have to be aware that the source code may be Open Source, but the game and the media it consist of have their individual licenses and copyrights."

Please research *before* asking questions.

If you read what I linked to, you'll know the answer to that question.

Or you cold perform a search on this forum and see that your question has already been asked and answered many, many times. (Hence the irritability on my part).

Hey there, I want to announce that a new sauerbraten-based project started. It's hosted here <http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/zsfpsrpg> and a discussion on it can be found on the FreeGameDev Forums there <http://forum.freegamedev.net/index.php?t=msg&th=1628>.

As you can guess from the title, it's a zombie survival fps rpg :)

#11326: Recording high quality video

by Ezdaroth on 10/02/2008 18:49

Hi, I'm in a hurry with a problem as I need to get a video to show on a projector tomorrow. It should be as high quality as possible. It only needs to be few minutes long and the size doesn't matter as I'm going to show it from external hard disk anyway, even if it's like 100 gigs, it's a np.

First I tried fraps, it dropped my smooth 200 fps to less than one when I started recording. ZD Soft Game Recorder does a bit better, but it's still like a power point show.

First thing that comes to my mind is that the hard drive can't take so much data quickly enough, but I have 500gb seagate barracuda 7200rpm disk with 32mb buffer, so it shouldn't actually be a problem. Also all the recording softwares I have tried have been on a second disk that's identical to the first one I mentioned as I thought it could improve the framerate even a bit.

Then the other computer specs come into question, but I'll cry if it's about other specs as I have phenom 9950 black edition processor, hd 4870x2 graphics card and 4gb of 1066mhz ddr2-ram. I'm running on vista ultimate 64-bit.

So what's the matter? I'm running sauerbraten at 1920x1200 resolution and all effects maxed, but even if I tune down the resolution, the framerate of the video just won't get even near the rate I want to have.

All help is welcome, I'm in a hurry.
