#14103: I need help for a scoreboard script

by Zehirmahnn on 09/20/2011 00:02

Hello all,
I post this message to ask you help for a scoreboard modification.

First, i apologie about my english, which is not very well ^^

Then, if you take a look in the scoreboard.cpp file, in sauerbraten source code, you\'ll find a line which looks like that :

if(showclientnum || player1->privilege>=PRIV_MASTER)
{
g.space(1);
g.pushlist();
g.text(\"cn\", fgcolor);
loopscoregroup(o, g.textf(\"%d\", 0xFFFFDD, NULL, o->clientnum));
g.poplist();
}

It\'s the line that shows you the clients\' cn if you type \"/showclientnum 1\".

I added some lines in this script :

if(showclientfrags && cmode)
{
g.space(1);
g.pushlist();
g.text(\"\", fgcolor);
loopscoregroup(o, g.textf(\"\\f1%d\", 0xFFFFDD, NULL, o->frags));
g.poplist();
}

if(showclientflags && m_ctf)
{
g.space(1);
g.pushlist();
g.text(\"\", fgcolor);
loopscoregroup(o, g.textf(\"\\f0%d\", 0xFFFFDD, NULL, o->flags));
g.poplist();
}

Thanks to them, i can see clients\' frags in capture modes and clients\' flags in ctf modes.

But when i add this line :

if(showclientdeaths)
{
g.space(1);
g.pushlist();
g.text(\"\", fgcolor);
loopscoregroup(o, g.textf(\"\\f3%d\", 0xFFFFDD, NULL, o->deaths));
g.poplist();
}

It doesn\'t works, for every player, i see \"0\" instead of the number of deaths. It only works for me, i can see my number of deaths.

Could someone help me ??

#14104: Re: unknown model commands 2nd try of posting

by suicizer01 on 09/20/2011 00:34, refers to #14101

After I found some source code (on the internet) about it, I'm pretty sure that "mdlopt" isn't a typo.

Here's a link to it:
http://pastebin.com/g2y54nEi
Here's the link where I've been taking it from:
http://beta.intuxication.org/drmoriarty/willcraft/rev/5099b4411428/

Found out how mdlextendbb works and will post info about it soon.

Tested the command "mdldepthoffset" another time, but without succes, really don't know how it works :S.

The command "mdltranslucent" is an outdated command which seems to be replaced for the "mdlalphatest" command.
I don't know why it's still on the french community website...

Another command is still a mystery. to me, it's called "mdlalphadepth". I've been testing it on a model which has a skin with an alpha-channel, but nothing happened at all.
Any explanation?

Oh right, I forgot to search in the configs :/

mdlopt is used internally to generate the different model shaders (spec, spec+bumpmap, spec+chrome etc) without having to write it all by hand. So they're not useful unless you write your custom model shaders (can be done, see old hudguns).



mdldepthoffset: no, you can't see the effect directly, only in specific situations. I barely understand it myself, so I can't really explain it to you :P

You can enable it with mdldepthoffset 1 (default is off), and there's a depthoffset variable which presumably controls the effect.


mdlalphadepth: this only affects semi-transparently _rendered_ models (independent of the skin), and from what I can see, it's only used for debris (that gets transparent as it fades out). It might be there to prevent glitches with fireballs or something.

Unfortunately, you can't get the number of deaths of other clients (i.e. the server doesn't tell you). Theoretically, you could count it on the client side, but that will obviously be incorrect if you join in the middle of a game.

by Zehirmahnn on 09/20/2011 19:07, refers to #14103

Yeah, that\'s what i thought, but on most of servers, you can type the #stats command, and there you got the number of deaths of other players, the server sent it to you...

by suicizer01 on 09/20/2011 19:55, refers to #14105

I don't want to be a questionvampire,
that's why check out explanation of all commands (exept the command "mdlname" and a few others that I may be oversighted) on here:
http://www.quadropolis.us/node/3091
Just press it's download link for the config-prefab instead of the gui.

Now back to questioning,

So that actually means "mdlopt" is a "support" command for "mdlshader"?
I'm wondering if it's possible to have an .md2-based model be bump-mapped.
Any idea if the bump-map should have a specific name :S?
I'm very sure it's not commented in the references, since I've read that A LOT.
How I came with this idea, that's because you can define in the "mdlshader" command that you would like to use a bumpmap, but it simply doesn't let you render.
Is that true :S?

I failed at asking the previous time, but about the command "mdlname":
- Why does it actually exist :S?
- What's it's purpose?

Those servers are modified so they recognize certain commands (usually starting with a hash) from the chat and send text back to you (stats, for example).

It's alright to ask - if it gets too much, I'll just stop replying :P Seriously now, you made me look at some things I've never seen before.

"How I came with this idea, that's because you can define in the "mdlshader" command that you would like to use a bumpmap, but it simply doesn't let you render."
Yes. You can put "mdlshader bumpmasksmodel" in the config, and the shader will be used. However, the engine won't provide a normalmap texture to the shader, so it won't work. If you want a bump-mapped static model, you'll have to use obj or md3.


mdlname: that's a command you can call from the model config to get the name of the model currently being loaded. Useful if one configuration is called from several others. Used to load team-colored skins for hudgun hands, see e.g. mrfixit/hudguns/md5.cfg

Ok, but it still doesn\'t work on those modified servers...

by Sub-Zero on 09/21/2011 05:49, refers to #14111

well, it depends on how you are trying to do this.

client>stats
server>stats

client>stats won't give accurate stats because client side cannot grab server info when the server doesn't have any info to give out, so it just records the stats that you start with (0 deaths, ect.)

server>stats will only give you information if you say alter your server sided stuff and run your server, otherwise, you'll have to rely on the mods out there given to you by the people who modded their server to send out info. (it wouldn't be a bad idea for sauer to have that already built in (if it isn't already))

A good idea would be to see if there's something specific causing the freeze. See perhaps if your GFX driver crashes when that happens (that's what the black screen is for usually). Check if the memory usage of the executable is within reasonable levels through taskmanager and uh.. dunno.

Hi there, i can't remember what version it was in i think it was trooper but there was like a hide and seek mode.. and you could use your chainsaw to fly high, it could have been the server. Does anyone else remember this?

I heard about it (and there was a vid on youtube about that, which I found accidental). I'm pretty sure it's been banned from the master server (since such things aren't allowed to eihrul, on the original master server).
Maybe the moved to another master server, just google it or search for it mate.

My cheat-sever is still registered but (I'm betting Eihrul hates Me though!) hidden from preying eyes! Only a select few get to know how -! Sorry Eihrul! :")

Then prepare to get your server permamently banned from masterserver, because Eihrul said he doesn't want modded (gameplay-wise) servers on Sauerbraten's masterserver.

I got no worries and rest assured that I respect Cube developers and gameplay! I dare not share My mod and or break the game, it would be a violation of My own ethics!

Hi all,

I have been fiddling with the source and was wondering how to disable blurring of textures to get nice crisp edges between texels. I wish someone could give me pointer to that, very much appreciated.
