#9310: Vertical Jitter

by demosthenes on 10/17/2007 19:36

On my SLi rig, playing Sauer in fullscreen seems to cause vertical jitter now. It's like the two frames don't line up quite right and so when they get put together every other frame is off center by a small amount, resulting in a terrible vertical jitter.

I know it's SLi itself because in single GPU mode, there's no jitter. This doesn't happen in any other games.

I need to actually look at the "refers to" number more often...

I don't suppose anyone's considered a different forum. I personally like Simple Machines forums.

I got a little question about a graphic bug. Sometimes, I havent quiet figured out on which textures this applies, I get a "twirl" effect on the texture where my hud is... Does any one know of this bug? Its really just minimal, but it kinda destroys the beauty of all the eye candy for me when my attention is focused at that :/

That is probably the textures with normalmaps. If you don't do a /calclight, then they'll have a weird effect on them like you said.

I've already isolated the problem to the way Sauerbraten and SLi interact. It has nothing whatsoever to do with vsync, as it occurs both with vsync on and with vsync off. This is a problem that I suspect only the coders or others with SLi who have found a way to fix the problem could help with, so please don't suggest things that are sure not to help. Thanks.

SLI can also (in my case) cause water bugs. The easiest way to fix this, short of disabling SLI, is to go into the 3d settings of the nvidia control panel. There should be a tab for individual settings, scroll down till you see sauerbraten (it's there by default), and force SLI AA

#9318: Question about LAN

Is it possible to play with 2 people over LAN on co-op on the single player levels? With the demons and stuff.

That option seems to be a deprecated one with the 163.xx drivers. :-/ (SLi AA, I mean. I'll look again, though.)

Not currently, but it's being considered for some point in the future.

I wouldn't hold your breath, though.

See this post

If you can't figure out how your system enables you to input control-chars (try Alt-Gr + NumKeyPad on Windows or just press Ctrl + L on Linux) then using a wrapper script should at least give you control over colours ...

#9322: Re: color symbol

by MeatROme on 10/20/2007 15:27, refers to #9321

... oh - BTW - in console input
you'll NEVER see the control-char,
it'll be there though - so press your desired number after it and keep typing, the line should then be coloured as desired ... end your colour with "f" (for back to white) ... or better still ... always start them of with "s" (for save previous colour) and end them with "r" (for restoring to the last saved colour).
(Of course the "f", "s" and "r" need to be prepended with the control-char)

#9323: mutable map

by kerno on 10/20/2007 22:01

Hi,
would Sauerbraten engine be suitable to use in 3d tile based, game with changeable map. I'm looking for some 3d engine that could support a game similiar to first parts of X-COM/UFO series, eg: multiple levels (but confined to layers tiles of constant dimensions), terrain that changes during gameplay (tiles that chage appearance as they take damage or walls that can be demolished). I'm ready to implement the logic, however I'd like to do as little graphics engine programming as possible.
If not, do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks & regards
Peter

Maybe not Sauerbraten directly, but Cube maybe, as it is basically a terrain generator pretending to be an FPS, and doesn't use lightmaps like Sauer does.

Try changing your Z-buffer depth, on the command line run sauer with the '-z24' or '-z16'.

#9329: Where does sauerbraten access fov?

by Memphetic on 10/22/2007 15:06

Where does the game access (in the source code) the variable defined by typing /fov <int> ? The only thing I've found is a line saying VARP(fov,10,105,150) which apparently initializes and sets boundaries on the variable to be controlled by /fov. I want to make this a non-variable though, so I need to know where it is accessed in the sources.
