#9984: Team Request |

Greetings,
I am looking for a team of experienced Cube2 users as I myself am not.
There are three positions available.
1.Experienced Cube2/Sauer Modders.
This person would need to have successfully utilized extreme source modifications at least one time prior to this. Ability to implement features such as physics: Dynamic entities may slide, fall over, move, when acted against by an opposing force. Many other modifications to be covered later.
2.Small Time Scripter.
Ability to intercalate effects such as; allowing for, not the decal artwork, but the engines ability to place muzzleflash effects approximate the end of players weapon.
3. One of the previous positions.
Willing to work with other member via chat. Or I.M. to complete the project.
If you feel that any of these positions apply to you then please email me @ Skywalker84095@hotmail.com. Payment and split will be later discussed. I can assure anyone interested money dividends will be safely handled for all.
*This is not a ten and twelve year old project* there will be deadlines as the purpose of this game is to add to my own profile, aside from making a little doe.

Also, placing this in your autoexec.cfg *might* help (ymmv): /ati_skybox_bug 1
Antialiasing may help to, as ATIRULE pointed out (to whom I must say; well done on what may be your first helpful post).

Yes, we would need to beef up the entities a bit. This would be *after* we had player /weapon models, player physics adjustments, a decent base mapmodel/texture set... then we start on entities and classes.
The good news is that it would be playable before the enhanced entities are in place. I would personally suggest putting off the 'deep engine' stuff as long as possible just in case some of it gets into Sauer by itself (pipe dream I suppose, but who knows)
BTW, we have a separate thread now for this.

if it's says "incomplete or corrupt" you will need to download again ... preferrably choosing a different mirror ... until it's complete and unZIPable :)

Copied from #10013, for everyone's future reference:
System name
System version
Graphics card
Processor
Ram
Saurbraten version
Any console/terminal output related to Sauerbraten
You've provided us (okay, _them_) with part of the last one, but more info is needed.

Quin:
Indeed, very true. It's not a 'help me with this idea' thing, it's a 'how appropriate would Cube 2 be for our idea, since you guys are the experts in cubification'
It's a feasibility study at this point. There has been some importing of ET assets, to test how easy it is to import/enhance Q3/RTCW content (lot's of pre-existing content to potentially use is 'a good thing'), and some partial mapping of ETish levels to see if it can capture the 'feel' of ET.
There would have to be a plan-of-attack before it actually begins, no generating random C++ bits and hoping it comes together at some point. Coding (well) requires commitment, and we are a picky lot. The assets can be contributed/bought/adapted, but we got the programming resources already covered.
We are just trying to find a platform that gives us the maximum benefit for a given amount of work. I'm thinking this is Cube 2.

...or you can just do as MeatROme says.
It could be a browser problem... please don't be using IE.

If you are using the win32 or linux releases, yes. Install them to the same directory as the base game. (After the base game)

I read your entire article on, \"how+not+to+start+a+mod\" demosthenes. You may be contumelious towards me for some reason possibly due to your brobdingnagian skill level or the fact that you better me at everything. I am however a freelance modeler, currently looking to better my application. Successfully creating and selling a game would help immensely. As the article you posted states so clearly that the majority of the work should be done by me, I feel that you should know all maps, characters, guns, terrain, etc. will be created, UVW mapped, and textured with proper normals and specular maps etc. Please still contact me regardless of the untrue bum rap.

Whenever the guys around here hear "mod", that link immediately gets posted. It's almost automatic, so don't worry too much... even the Cube:ET idea got hownottostartamod'ed ;)
It was quite apparent from your original post that this was a serious idea, unlike most, real money being involved, etc.

#9999: Memory leak with ATI 8.28.8 on Linux? |

Anyone running Sauerbraten on Linux with ATI drivers (fglrx) version 8.28.8 (Radeon 8500)? It leaks like 100MB/sec for me. DRI drivers are fine.

Try turning off soft shadows, etc. If that version leaks, the soft shadows will be a big contributor.
If you can, use some newer ones. There don't appear to be any more memory leaks in the Catalyst-series drivers.
If you use Ubuntu, I wrote a nice installer which you can get here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3082777.0 . It's worked like a charm for me so far. Only thing it doesn't do is configure your xorg.conf...
Hmm, maybe I should implement some aticonfig stuff. :)

Sarcasm and Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophilia are not appreciated or necessary.
JadeMatrix is right, hownottostartamod is just reflex now for a lot of us, especially when significant help is asked for. I didn't notice any mention of payment, and I think you might have more luck searching for an experienced programmer elsewhere, as the people with the most experience with the engine here are already involved in creating a mod or are part of the engine team...
Eh, good luck with the mod.

#10002: Freezes |

I've been playing Sauer for over a year now, and have never had any problems with the game before. It has always ran nicely on my aging machine which is one of the reasons why I play it.
I recently installed the Assassin edition and the game plays fine for a few minutes, but inevitably freezes up. If I leave it for anywhere from 1-5 minutes, it eventually resumes game play but freezes up more frequently than before. I have reinstalled the game a few times and re downloaded the installer. I've searched through the forum and wiki, and found nothign that helps. Nothing seems to help, and I have never had any problems with any of the other releases. Anybody have any ideas as to whats wrong?
thanks, Scourge

OS? Console output? Machine specs? Whatever else you can give us?
We'd love to help around here, but we need a lot more info to actually be of service.
