Read. Although he/she has a good grasp of the f word I've heard better. In fact I've seen clouds of impenetrable darkness form at the explication of unrepeatable offenses to uncontrollable circumstances. Keep trying though. Soon you'll be cursing like a sailor in a desert.

Funny is how the more you toss insults and cuss words around, the less helpful we get for you, isn't it? I'm honestly amazed you completed the math puzzles on the first try each time. Must have been quite a strain for you. I imagine that if you put a bit of work into the problem yourself, you'll solve it rather easily, as countless others have done.

See, thing is, insulting people you want information from only works when you have physical intimidation tactics ready to back it up. Simply because you can bully the other children at your "special" school does not meant that you can bully us into helping you. Really, if you wanted help, you should have just asked nicely. Try again sometime, with a better tone of voice and perhaps use the *real* magic word, which is "please" and not "f**k".

Also remember that this is the internets and small children can surf to this page. You wouldn't want to be responsible for stealing things from children, would you? And especially not their innocence.

by Meatloaf on 11/12/2007 08:01

Hello there!
Well its been ages since ive been on sauerbraten, but once i heard that the summer edition was out, i downloaded it right away, onto my new laptop. Unfortnatley, it gos at 1 to 3 fps, with Shaders OFF and screen resolution at the lowest. Ive been mukking around with the video card config, but it still is TERRIBLY S L O W.
Here are my basic system specs:
O/S: WIndows Vista Home Basic
CPU:
Video Card: ATI Radeon Xpress 1150
2 Gb RAM, AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-53

The problem list is:
Warning: No texture_env_combine extension! (Your video card is WAY too old)
Warning: No Multitexture extention!
Warning: No Shader support! USing fixed function fallback. (No fancy visuals for you)
Warning: No occulusion query support! (large maps will be SLOW)
Warning: No framebuffer object support. (Reflective water may be slow)
Warning: No cube map texture support. (No reflective glass)
Warning: Non-power-of-two textures not supported!

I wonder if you're using the software rendering or something so that it's not using your GPU properly? I really don't know, though.

Installed the drivers for your video card? The ones that come with vista have really bad OpenGL support (I was told).

#9501: Compiling the CVS

by jbuk2k7s cookie has gone on 11/12/2007 18:44

This question probably has a really obvious answer and someone'll get angry at me, but here goes.

I'm trying to compile the cvs on Vista using mingw. I put mingw32-make.exe into sauer's root, and I copy the batch file from src/mingw to sauer's root, and then run that. It returns:

C:\Program Files\Sauerbraten_CVS\sauerbraten>cd src

C:\Program Files\Sauerbraten_CVS\sauerbraten\src>mingw32-make all -fMakefile.mingw
g++ -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall -fsigned-char -Ienet/include -Iinclude -Ishared -Iengine -Ifpsgame -c -o shared/tools.o shared/tools.cpp
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, g++ -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall -fsigned-char -Ienet/include -Iinclude -Ishared -Iengine -Ifpsgame -c -o shared/
tools.o shared/tools.cpp, ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
mingw32-make: *** [shared/tools.o] Error 2

C:\Program Files\Sauerbraten_CVS\sauerbraten\src>PAUSE
Press any key to continue . . .

Saying that it can't find tools.o, which isn't there. What am I doing wrong?

Oh, and I also put the makefile.mingw from src/mingw into src.

#9503: Re: Compiling the CVS

by MovingTarget on 11/12/2007 19:16, refers to #9502

All the .o files are in the src/mingw/.objs directory. Other than that I can't figure out what may have gone wrong. I'll think about it...

Hmmm I don't have that dir. CVS update methinks.

#9505: Re: Compiling the CVS

by MovingTarget on 11/13/2007 00:17, refers to #9504

Oh crap don't listen to me. I got all the .o files by opening the src/mingw/sauerbraten.cbp in code::blocks and compiling. Do you have code::blocks?

#9506: Re: Compiling the CVS

by asd1 on 11/13/2007 11:27

did you try to invert tools.cpp and tools.o in the makefile ?

#9507: Re: Compiling the CVS

by jbuk2k7s cookie has gone on 11/13/2007 17:24, refers to #9506

My makefile doesn't have tools.cpp in it, and I tried opening the codeblocks project and returned the same error when I tried to build it form there.

Ooh, messed around with where cb is looking for mingw, and it now reports:

-------------- Build: default in sauerbraten ---------------
Compiling: ..\enet\callbacks.c
mingw32-gcc.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory
Process terminated with status 1 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)

Are you using the cb 1.0-rc2 build, or a nightly snapshot?

Meatloaf, it means what the engine spits out. You're graphics card is the problem.

A) Download the patch for the summer edition.

B) Your graphics card may need updated drivers, make sure you get drivers for VISTA.

C) If all else fails then it seems that the ATI card you have failed. And you should upgrade to Nvidia :)
