With kernel 2.6.29 released last week , I though I'd like to share an update to my intel graphics on linux experience:

Good news: Either mesa-7.4 or xserver-1.6 fixed the see-through-walls (because I ran sauer before upgrading the kernel). In conjunction with kernel 2.6.29 and KMS, 3D/video playback/OpenGL is much better in general.

Disappointing (but not bad) news: Sauerbraten's FPS didn't have a significant boost, but I think there was one (a few fps higher). On map mach2, I can range from 30 fps max inside to 12 fps outside with "medium" graphics 1024x768 resolution. Didn't do a thorough test before kernel 2.6.29 though, just based on feeling.

So I think sauerbraten has improved with these new intel technologies, even if it is very slight. At least I can play again :D

uh..He was nice enough to respond to your question and helpful enough to point you in the right direction.

You have to mod the source yourself to get the functionality you require. When you've finished, feel free to upload your work to Quadropolis for others to review and perhaps improve on.

You said that blood frontier has the camera functionality you need - so there is the possibility of moding sauer with the relevant code from it. In which case asking the blood frontier developers might be a good way forward.

Of course this is non-trivial if you're unfamiliar with the code...

-yawn-

src/engine/rendergl.cpp::recomputecamera()

Look for the line that says, "camera1->move = -1;"
add a new line under it, "camera1->strafe = -1;". Basically it's saying how the camera is to be moved from the player position.

Can't do this because it changes the crosshair's location in 3D space, the stuff in BF has kludges to reorient the camera/worldpos.

It's a major modification that actually breaks the network protocol to do correctly. It's not something that can be done (well) without getting the devs themselves to do it. There is some minor interest in it, but don't really expect it any time soon (or at all). These are First Person Shooters, as a result Third Person is not really very well supported or recommended (even in Blood Frontier, Third Person is not so crash hot).

To be perfectly honest, nobody is gonna write code for you. Your best place to start is probably http://www.gamedev.net/

by viparr104 on 04/01/2009 18:28

what command line code would i use to create echo text whenever players log into my server? for example, i would want it to show players the rules of the server, such as not claiming master :-P im running os x, if that helps at all.
