#12193: Re: Linux noob question

by MeatROme on 05/26/2009 20:03, refers to #12192

Heh - one of the (few) times the topic is actually used ..
you should run the .sh file, probably best from a console (Alt+F1 - 2x Arrow-Up - Arrow-Right - select "Terminal") .. then "cd" to your installation directory .. like "cd /opt/cube/Sauerbraten/Trooper" (wherever you unpacked it) and then type "./sauerbraten_unix".
If it still fails to run - did you really download the linux-package or are you attempting to run the EXE ?!?!
Also : look at http://cube.wikispaces.com/Install+Guide
and http://cube.wikispaces.com/Beginners+Guide as well as http://cube.wikispaces.com/Performance+Guide
..assuming you have installed the graphics drivers required for your hardware.
HTH

Oh, forgot to mention this:
maybe it's a permissions thing - look for the eXecutable bit being set on the sauerbraten_unix script and the binaries inside bin_unix! (use "ls -l" for that - check the first 10 chars of each line for "rwx").

Ok I tried the first suggestion and it said

"./bin_unix/Linux_64_client: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory:

So I'm gonna say that it was either the permission thing or I'm missing files somewhere.

One last thing when I was looking at the sauerbraten_unix script I noticed this at the end of it

"else
echo "Your platform does not have a pre-compiled Sauerbraten client."
echo "Please follow the following steps to build a native client:"
echo "1) Ensure you have the SDL, SDL-image, SDL-mixer, and OpenGL libraries installed."
echo "2) Change directory to src/ and type \"make install\"."
echo "3) If the build succeeds, return to this directory and run this script again."
exit 1
fi"

So as you can tell everything linked to SDL libraries, bottom line:

I installed SDL libraries... now it works fine. Thx for the help anyway.

#12202: ip banned - why?

by Klimbim on 05/28/2009 21:30

How can I find out the reason?

Thank you very much indeed.

#12203: Re: ip banned - why?

by c0rdawg on 05/28/2009 22:35, refers to #12202

Individual servers can ban clients without reason. The ban is cleared after a few hours or after the server becomes empty (whichever is first).

#12205: Flag Help

by Zero-Zero-One on 05/29/2009 23:49

Hello, I am new here and in need of some assis. I am trying to make a CTF map, but I can't seem to make a 'grabbable' flag. Can someone tell me exactly how to put in the command for everything? I have looked at the Documentation and all and it tells me:
"flag" [Y] T Where Y is the camera Yaw and T is team (either 1 or 2). I put everything in for the Variables, but it doesn't work, it gives me "Unknown command: Flag". So all I would need is an example.

Thanks, and sorry if this is any trouble.

#12206: Re: Flag Help

by Hapexamendios on 05/30/2009 00:34, refers to #12205

You should select the point on the geometry you want the flag to be and type the following into your console:

/newent flag T

where T is the team number (1 or 2)

The key problem I think you are having is that /newent is the command and flag is the entity.

#12210: Connecting to Friends on Multiplayer

by ReanimatedYatzi on 05/31/2009 23:20

I'm currently trying to connect with a friend on multiplayer (we're sharing connection with a router at the moment). We tried to search for each other on the server list, but we cannot find each other.

Is there something we're overlooking? LAN also doesn't work. I had seen something about making a server, but I'm not "techy" enough to know how to do that.

Please excuse me if this is a noobie question as I am new to this game.

#12211: Ripples?

by Razgriz on 06/01/2009 15:10

Are we going to be seeing ripple effects any time soon? I mean

Water: Ripple effect in diving, stepping on, shots, and water splash with different types for all 3 of them
Also light rays based on the ripples will make water more real looking

Lava: Ripple effect in diving, stepping on, shots, and lava splash and dark gray/black/white smoke with different types for all 3 of them

these are just my suggestions, but they could make water and lava more real
but i think they'll be a bit heavy for the game so i think if they ever get implemented they should have the option to turn them on/off
