Actually I think the GL is the only one colorful enough, as it really sticks out as a vwep in game :)
But yeah it thus looks a bit out of place.

#9657: Why does Sauerbraten in practice not look like screenshots?

by Anonymo on 12/07/2007 13:12

Why is it that when I play Sauerbraten that it looks bland and low-res graphics (textures, etc), without any beautiful water or reflections as is contained in the screenshots. What do I do to see it? Why does it look crappy and bad?

I tried editing the in-game graphics setting and strangely turning on more advanced things such as bloom is problematic and the window closes strangely. Turning on anti-aliasing also seems to produce no effect.

I like all of them except the rifle, and that one I dislike a lot. The RL is my favorite.

Thanks for the hint. IMHO they fit the sauerbraten-look damn good, espacially the texturing. I hope ironsnout himself finally receives proper texturing similiar to those, I still play with the ogro since ironsnout looks so weird.

Only thing with the weapons - the aiming seems to be odd with the machinegun and the grenade launcher. It seems to be right on screenshots, but it somehow feels like they point too much to the left.

The new "rifle" is odd, but I guess when we get new sounds that should change. :)
And I never realized that rockets have shadows, but they indeed do in the summer version. haha, great. =D

Check out ironsnout with the rocketlauncher in 3rd person. Hahaha!

#9662: connection problems

by Kelloid on 12/09/2007 01:39

Greetz to ...whoeverreadsthis

I got the actual version of "sauerbraten", but my problem is, that i can't find any server. I got the message "master server is not replying", i waited upto 15 minutes but the server list is still empty.

I already checked the internet-connection, uploaded the setup a second time, reinstalled several times, followed instructions in the "readme"-doc, shut off the firewall, opened the UPD-Ports in my router, but nothing works. I hope, someone can help me.

information:
WinXP, DSL2000, version: sauerbraten_2007_08_29_summer_edition,

ah, what also may be important:

I tried to get a cconnection via direct-ip, but that also failed.
And I am located in germany (what also explains my horrible english :] ).

Kelloid: Try again, maybe the masterserver was indeed not reachable when you tried it. Should not happen too often, though.

sounds like a corrupt defaults.cfg/config.cfg.
Can you delete config.cfg and let it recreate. just in an attempt to see if it helps.

Hmm several things I recently noticed:

1. I tried to play to play Sauerbraten on a lanparty yesterday with the CVS version, but the windows and the linux version arn't netcode compatible right now it seems. Yet I can play on Internet servers without any problems using the CVS linux version.
Any reason why these differ?

2. The performance on WindowsXP seems to be a lot worse. On Linux most maps runs at about 100fps with all effects enabled and 4x AA, yet on Windows the same maps and without AA only have about 50-70fps.
Seems a bit strange, and can not be explained with "well linux ist just better" I think.

3. The new weapons look a lot better with /hudgunfov 60 instead of the default (?) 70. Did geartrooper work at 60 by any chance?

4. The nice water blending in CVS effect can not be enabled in the Linux version, it works fine in Windows though (no that isn't the reason for the speed difference from 2.).

This is a generic mac question, but... either get-info on the folder and authenticate to change permissions to give you write access, or get the person who installed sauer to do the change.

#9671: Weird Things

by xsucux on 12/09/2007 21:43

So something weird is happening to the original Cube game... I\'ll boot it up, my guy cant move. So I shoot a few rounds and
as soon as I shoot, this will pop up:
unnamed :)
Im thinking maybe its a virus because its weird a smiley face pops up RIGHT when I shoot. Anyone else had this happen.

Quite obviously you did something funny to the binds. As there are so many binds, your best bet is probably to delete/move/rename config.cfg and let it recreate.

by JadeMatrix on 12/09/2007 22:24, refers to #9668

Entrakan:
Right click on your highest Sauerbraten folder (the one that contains the bins, dirs, etc.). Choose Get Info. At the bottom, you'll see a tab "Ownership & Permissions;" click the arrow. Under "Details," make sure the owner is set to your computer account's name, and access is Read & Write. You may need to click the lock to unlock the field; if so, you'll need your password. Finally, click "Apply to enclosed items..." at the very bottom. Sounds complex, but I tend to do that.

xsucux:
Upload your config.cfg file somewhere so we can take a look at it. That sounds like some messed up binds to me.
