#9896: Commercial Use of Cube 2

by D1Hazel on 01/13/2008 19:12

I think this is how it goes (correct me if I\'m wrong):
1. Download the game
2. The game is Disc 1
3. Delete everyone\'s Maps/Textures/Models/Ect
4. Make my own stuff
5. Delete all the files except my own resources and the new .exe
6. That is now Disk 2

7. In the manual, state that you have to install Disk A, then Disk B
8. Be sure to give credit to the maker\'s of Cube 2

Is that basicly it?

Well, that would be considered an expansion mod of Sauerbraten, seeing as it 'keeps' (uses) a ton of/all the content from the original.

This is how I understand it:

Delete everything but the source code. Mod the code, compile, add your resources. When distributing, say what engine it's built on (Cube 2) and give credits to the original creators (and any assistance you had on your project.

But I thought I had to make it so that they had Cube 2 installed before they installed my game. Can I really just have it say that they need to go online and download Cube 2 first? If so, could I have an app that downloads the latest version of Cube 2 automaticly? How did Proper Games do it?

#9899: Re: patch for mac?

by SanHolo on 01/13/2008 23:18, refers to #9893

No, there is no patch for the Mac version since the changes fixed with the patch are already built-in to the Mac version. ;)

#9900: How do you open ports on Mac

by matador>> on 01/14/2008 18:47

I want to host a server on my MacbookPro, using OSX 10.5. I have searched the forums, and found out that I need to open ports. I can't figure out how to do this. I looked through the forums for three days, so don't tell me to just read the forums. If there is an article already on this that I have missed, just give me a link to it.

Opening ports is most often done by either configuring your router, or configuring your firewall..

#9902: An idea on cheating...

by Praxibetel_cradle on 01/14/2008 19:43

Instead of trying to stop everyone cheating on sauerbraten, why not just give every player an option of various cheats from a menu?

this is kinda similar to my idea to stop terrorism on planes:

instead of making sure nobody has a gun, give every passenger on board a gun, so if a terrorist came, he would be outnumbered.

This isn't an airplane.

That wouldn't help at all. The reason people mod the code to cheat is to have something other players don't, usually more damage or special weapons or abilities.


1 + 1 ?

That plane idea is colossally stupid.


Anyway, can someone tell me where screenshots end up in the Sauerbraten folder? I\\\'m using Ubuntu.

In windows, they appear in the root sauerbraten folder.

#9906: Quick question...

On Linux, where do saved map files live? I'm trying to find out where my "savemap" results went from coopedit...

#9907: Linux files

by MeatROme on 01/15/2008 00:41

since two releases sauerbraten creates
~/.sauerbraten
I find this VERY sensible;
e.g. modified/additional content - for me - now lives only in this folder ... made switching to the "assasin" release so wonderfully easy :)

So for
#9944 : iggy
and
#9946 : Kira
try looking in that folder!

#9909: help with gray screen

by imadoofus123 on 01/15/2008 03:22

I hope this is an ok place to post this.
sauerbraten was working yesterday, but now it just loads and gives me a gray screen. I can still shoot and the music is playing, just that the screen is blank. the odd thing is that when I log in as a different user it works fine. I'm using ubuntu gusty with an integrated intel gpu. cube 1 also works fine, although it crashes fairly regularly. also the image that goes below the loading bar thing is gone so I'm thinking it might be something with mesa. it gives no errors.
if this isn't an ok place is there any sort of help forum for these sorts of things?
thanks

#9912: Re: HELP!!

by Passa on 01/16/2008 00:52, refers to #9910

The Xbox 360 controller doesn't have any Linux drivers (yet) so I'm assuming you're on Windows.. no need to mod Sauerbraten, or any other games. Just download and configure 'Xpadder'. Lets you bind your controller buttons to mouse movements and keyboard presses.

So obviously you just bind the right thumbstick to mouse up, down, left, right and the left thumbstick to WASD (and then all your other buttons).. works for me. But there's no point since a mouse and keyboard is superior to a controller any day of the week.

#9913: ..

it might be cool to be able to run in one direction while looking in a different direction. [ not simple strafing either ]

hmmmmmm...player as a tank with a seperate, movable turret?

Another alternative is PPJoy, which has a fair number of applications. I use it in conjunction with GlovePIE to use my Wiimote and Classic Controller.
