Put:

loadsky "staffy/staffy"

into your map's CFG. See this http://cube.wikispaces.com/Map+Config+and+Scripting#tocMap%20Config%20and%20Scripting1 for more info.

#9200: IP Banned from bsd.homeunix.com for no reason?

by felty on 10/07/2007 00:53

Has anyone else also been banned from this server for seemingly no reason? For all I was told, I got kicked because I was doing too well.

heh, I answered in the other thread ... well as for a list ... this should get you started:
aftas/sky/orbe
dash/moon
ik2k/env/iklake
ratboy/skyboxes/coward
skyboxes/evilsky
skyboxes/morning
socksky/desert
socksky/emerald
socksky/frozen
socksky/frozendusk
socksky/mars
socksky/nightball
socksky/valley
staffy/staffy
stecki/snow

But you might be missing some ... I've just gone and grepped them from my current sauerbraten directory ... could be I've gotten one or two off maps from quadropolis ... the interwebs also have ressources of skyboxes (search for "skybox") so you can easily add your own if none of the exisiting match your taste/map.

Also, making skyboxes is tremendously easy thanks to Terragen 1 or 2. Making your own content is always more rewarding!

#9207: Default Weapon

by CrazyChao on 10/07/2007 08:44

In EisenStern, the default weapon is not the pistol. How do I change the default weapon?

Best place to look is in other map cfgs. The editref html page that comes with sauer is a great place to look (I highly recommend reading it all the way through and playing around until you can say you understand 50% or more of it).

#9209: Thanks MeatROme

by N1NJ4 on 10/07/2007 10:26

Thanks for the help MeatROme, that fixed it. Bindvar isn't in the readme - what docs are you talking about?

reply to this message

#9210: Re: Thanks MeatROme

by MeatROme on 10/07/2007 15:29, refers to #9209

docs/static_wiki/configuration.html

Of course - the non-static wiki is always a good place to check too ;)

Ahemm ... you've been around a while now ... but haven't come to grips with the double-post issue ... nor have you seen the sense in using quadropolis. *sigh*

Oh, scratch that last part about quad ... stick with your own site, really, please do.

OK, I can tell from your screenies that texturing still is kinda lost to you.

Textures need to be varied depending on the surface, but follow a uniform pattern- for example, walls should usually be the same texture, augmented with a complementary border or trim.
http://sauerbraten.sourceforge.net/new/screenshot_1247508.jpg
See how there are separate but similar textures defining the edges, and a different floor texture.

A good rule of thumb for you is- if I throw a screenshot at a random passerby, will they be able to tell what they're looking at, or will you have to explain which is the walls, ceiling, etc?

...

Did our math problems get idiot-proofed? isn't that defeating the purpose? sigh...
