Hey, just finished an new version of cube_wrapper.. For you who are interested it\'s on http://www.northernmost.org/cube_wrapper.cpp

Works for me; I won\'t cry if it doesn\'t for someone else..

For you who don't know what it is..

It's a statistics generator, which gives you a little info about your games when you quit cube. It shows you how many times you got kiled, how many you killed, as well as how many maps you palyed. It also have a "grand totale" which shows the same statistics, but over all of your games (of course just the ones played using the wrapper) When the total is shown (./cube_wrapper -total) you also get some extra stuff, such as average kills on one map, average kills per death and so on.

Oh, btw.. it only works in Linux, that I know of. Perhaps it works under windows, have never played cube under windwos, though I doubt it'll work.

#1167: cube_wrapper for windows

by [RI]insight on 01/17/2003 04:14

Hi everyone!

pushplay has been kind enough to port cube_wrapper to windows, and has sent me an exe. It's located at http://www.northernmost.org/cube_wrapper.exe
He also helped me with some programming ideas in general.

Thank you very much pushplay.

i still think you could really do with a better webhost, or at least an alternative for IE users

I don't know how often I have to repeat: It's not a browser issue, but a DNS issues, which is why it works for some people and not for others.

Actually, it turns out that the frame redirects me to the page http://web1000.globalreachinc.com/404/mainstream/abcsearch2.html. The number 404 here I don't like. =)

Oh, now Mozilla stopped working as well. Bl#@!

How many time must i repeat it IS a browser issue, NO-ONE (at least to my knoledge has got cubestuff to work in IE 6), and these same people have no problem with ANY other browser, thus it must be a browser/web host problem

#1182: Ok, ok, I have to excuse myself

by SleepwalkR on 01/21/2003 20:14

It is indeed a browser issue. But to make it up to you I have tried to figure out why the hell this is happening. Here's what I think:

The html sourcecode contains this:

</tr>
<td align="left"><a
<tr>


I guess that the incomplete <a></a> tag causes IE to request some resource that is not found on the web server (and thus IE receives a 404 page that redirects it to that stupid 404 page). I can't imagine why IE would request a resource when it encounters an incomplete <a>-Tag, but you never know.

Even if that <a>-Tag is not the problem, I am pretty sure that it's something else that causes IE to request a resource that is not there, thus receiving a 404 that redirects it. Maybe other browsers receive the 404, too, but don't allow being redirected when they get a 404.

Anyway, to find the problem, you should do the following:

Open your site in Mozilla, and save the html as a file called "test.html". Copy that file to the root of your website, so that you can access it through http://cubestuff.lunaticsworld.com/test.html.

Now, open that url in IE. If the error still occurs, good, if not, it's not a problem with the html code.

If the error still occurs, delete all tags from the <head></head> of the file, and upload it again. Reload in IE. Error still there? Ok, it's not the <head></head>-section.

Now, you have to delete roughly the first half of the html code in the <body></body>-section. Upload, reload in IE, error still there? Ok, the problem is in the undeleted half.

Delete the half of the remaining code, upload, reload in IE, error still there? The problem is in the undeleted quarter. Error gone? The problem is in the deleted quarter.

Repeat this process recursively until you have found the offending html code. Remember that there are maybe more than one pieces of code in your file that cause the error. You'll have to track each part that causes errors.

I hope this helps.
