Why not? CUBE 2 is a great engine, and more people should use it. More people = more modifications = more features...

...ya know - besides the fact that you essentially just said that you want to take someone else's work and claim it as your own.

In University, that's called plagiarism and will get you kicked out. In real life, it's called copyright infringement and will get you sued and possibly imprisoned.

#11472: Download problems

by cheeze4life on 11/29/2008 05:49

Hey I\'m having a lot of trouble downloading Sauerbraten. Every time I try to open it a small black window with white typing comes up, then my computer screen turns completely black. Then I have to hit ctrl alt delete to get out of the black screen. When it goes back to the normal screen it says Sauerbraten: Fatal Error. My graphics card is a generic PnP Monitor on ATI Radeon X1200. Can someone please tell me what\'s wrong and how to fix this?

Is there a patch to:

* Automatically get the map after you connect

Thanks

Is it a widescreen monitor? It may be that the default resolution doesn't work for you.

#11476: Unable to play in Vista

I used to play Cube and Cube2 on my XP PC but can't get either to work on my Vista32 PC. Is there a trick or something?

Thanks

You need to describe why it's not working, i.e. what's happening that makes you think it's not working.

Also need to give what your 3D hardware you have.

But regardless, make sure you have actually installed OpenGL drivers for your video card.

I have a Nevidia GEForce 6150LE. I installed Assault Cube and when I tried to run it it gave me a hint about the OpenGL dsrivers so I installed the latest version. Assault Cube now runs but neither of the Sauerbratens will run. I get a DOS type window with the following

C:\Program Files\Sauerbraten 2\Sauerbraten.exe -r
init: SJ1
init: enet
init: video: mode

Eventually I get an error box that says sauerbraten.exe not responding

Well, I have no idea whatsoever why it would hang there - while it's still just trying to set up the screen.

I thought it might have something to do with my firewall so I clicked the shortcut to see and now everything works. I have no idea what's different today. Perhaps there was an eclipse or some solar flares or some other natural phenomenon.

#11482: RE: Weaponless editing

by loutti on 12/03/2008 01:53

Hello,

Is there a way to get rid of the weapons from the game? I am teaching a game design course at the high school level and would like to have no weapons in the program (for now any way). Thanks.

#11483: Re: Weaponless editing

by mrpiddly on 12/03/2008 02:44, refers to #11482

There is an option in the options menu called "hudguns" that will remove the weapons model from the first person view, however one can still use the weapons.

To actually remove the weapons completely, I believe you would have to edit the source and compile.

#11484: Re: Weaponless editing

by SheeEttin on 12/03/2008 02:50, refers to #11483

Correct.

The easiest thing to do would probably be to just set all the weapons to a non-damaging zero-range weapon.

Try this Sauer mod: http://www.kids.platinumarts.net/

It has been sanitized for teaching very young children, but still retains all the fun editing stuff, at least.

Check out P.A. Sandbox, a cube 2 engine mod (the same engine used by sauerbraten) for weaponless editing; it's been used by the founder of Sandbox (mike/calimer) to teach game design (or something related to games) to kids too.
