I have a quick question. I stumbled across that apperantly you cannot edit the "items.png" in the "data" directory to be "semi-transparent". I have noticed tho that for example "newerchars.png" and "crosshair.png" are also in .png format and it is possible to create transparent and semi-transparent areas. Im really no programmer, but rather a grafic designer, so I wanted to ask if there's any way to be able to create transparent areas on the "items.png" file? Perhaps by changing some of the hard coding? (since its possible with other files too...)

Strange tentus, with Nvidia cards the restricted driver manager has always worked for me (and so has Envy).

Tried simply installing the nvidia-glx package through Synaptic and then reconfiguring the xserver as SheeEttin suggested?

Oh, I've tried every damn thing. Rather than doing anything productive yesterday, I had to format and reinstall the whole system.

I would think I had found a way to make it work, and then something strange would happen that was totally crippling (ie, it would just stop sending an image to the monitor). I dunno what the problem is, but it's frustrating as hell.

#9571: Load new maps

by Dandee on 11/23/2007 15:31

I just dl some maps, but what is the right way to get them into AC?
I\'m no programmer, but just want to extend the amount of maps.

Thx in advance

Move them into packages/base, which is in your AC home directory.

OK, i'll sound like a NOOB, and in this case i am ;-) but then what? E.g.

folder names drenched:
inside:
folder packages
inside here:
allegorithmic
base
mitaman
textures

Do i have to place the entire folder drenched into the packages/base?
Btw... that folder didn't excist in my packages folder in the AC folder???

The drenched map won't work in AC. Only maps specifically tagged "Assault Cube" will work. Drenched is for Sauerbraten.

Idea: have a itty little bit of code that will look for an .ogz file by the same name when a map cgz is not found, and then if the ogz is found, pop up a nice, friendly, and educational message explaining that Sauer maps and Cube maps are different, and deserve separate attention. I've had friends ask me the same question in person, and people don't seem understand the cube map import command in Sauer very well.

The only problem is, AC maps and Cube maps are very different. AC is based on a *heavily modified* cube engine, so neither Cube maps nor Sauerbraten maps will work in AC.

#9577: Windows

by meatpuppet on 11/23/2007 18:31, refers to #9564

I don't know about other windows users, but my exception message and program exit or lock-up happens with rockets and grenades. Judging by the array of mapping twirling around like a tornado - my computer can't handle the graphics. I wonder if it's Windows or the fact that I'm on a laptop with an Intel 945GM Express Chipset
