#9436: Re: Midi problem?

by tentus_ on 11/04/2007 02:23, refers to #9415

In response to my own question: yes, apparently there is some version of MIDI we don't support. I opened and re-exported the MIDI file and the new version now works.

Eihrul, do you have any ideas as to what's up with the discrepancy?

Tentus, even if it does work I've found Sauerbraten crashes randomly while playing the midi.

Really? I haven't run across that bug yet, and I've spent some quality time with this song now, and playing around in Eisenstern. Maybe it's a hardware thing, seeing as I've put in so much time without a crash or even an error report- all I got with the unplayable midi was silence.

http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/

"Mixer supports playing MIDI format files using software wavetable via an old version of timidity. This requires you to have a GUS compatible set of sound patches on your system."

Doesn't sound very up to date though, I somehow remember that being alot more of a pain in the ass. But yeah, it'd be and SDL Mixer thing.

What are they? I am a major fan of minimalism. Are they a custom script? may i use it? or are they off an open source project?

#9441: Slowing speed

by Puff on 11/05/2007 18:16

Anyway is this possible?

Thanks,

Yes: /gamespeed 75

Is there anyway of keeping it as default?

Put it in autoexec.cfg, in your Sauerbraten directory (no leading slash). If it doesn't exist, create it.

Didn't work :S

#9446: Re: Slowing speed

this would require you to edit
data/default_map_settings.cfg
which is not really the place for personal settings.

in multiplayer though - as SheeEttin already pointed out (other thread) - you're fixed to gamespeed 100 (of course).

#9448: Quaternions and 6DOF in Cube Engine 2

by GaidinTS on 11/05/2007 23:23

I'm curious, does the Cube Engine 2 use quaternions for rotations, and if so is there a fairly complete math library in the source.

I'm looking for an engine that can do 6DOF, and if rotations are handled with Eular math, then the view suffers from gimbal lock.

I'm just curious if cube 2 would suffer this same problem.

#9449: Re: Quaternions and 6DOF in Cube Engine 2

by Aardappel_ on 11/06/2007 00:26, refers to #9448

it uses euler angles, but it does not suffer from gimbal lock, as the engine's camera transformations are limited to what makes sense for 1st and 3rd person shooter style cameras, meaning only yaw has full freedom, pitch is limited to +-90, and roll is extremely limited.

There is nothing in the engine that requires quaternions yet, so its not there.

#9450: Crosshair problem

by ignignokt on 11/06/2007 17:43

My crosshair always loads as an opaque white box. My crosshair.png is fine.
Thoughts?

#9451: okay

by gibs_again on 11/06/2007 19:35

I'm almost done arguing now about the rockets. You'll never change my opinion, but since not many people agree w/ me, I'll leave it alone (after this :P).

Even though the damage values are probably perfectly balanced, the reason the rl feels overpowered to me is just its nature: launching large deadly explosions that don't have to hit to kill.

I now think the best solution would be a slightly longer reload time.

I'm done now...hey at least I tried, right?

reply to this message

#9452: Re: okay

by MovingTarget on 11/06/2007 19:51, refers to #9451

Yeah, at least you tried!

I also think a *slightly* longer reload time would be beneficial. The source is right in front of you...

I modded it to see how it feels. It feels good.

"My crosshair always loads as an opaque white box. My crosshair.png is fine.

Correction: it tends to load correctly when I first load the game, but when I change servers/maps it goes to a white box.
