I'd be interested in seeing the progression as well.

#1604: SleepwalkR

Is there any chance on getting the necessary binaries to run a master server? I just want to keep the DI servers seperate from the Cube servers.

nope. If you want to do your own multiplayer and your own masterserver, there is no other way

I don't see a problem, really. The games are incompatible anyhow, so why even bother using the same protocol? Writing the masterserver for the open-sourced version of Cube shouldn't be hard, the code for the networking part is very clear. I wrote a simple PHP script which queries the client and displays all info in ~30 minutes...

#1610: BUG: Linux/Voodoo 3 2000, Cube 2002_10_20

by Jorge on 06/15/2003 13:43

That's my hardware/software:

* Pentium III, 666 MHz, 256 MB ram
* Voodoo 3 2000 PCI, 16 MB
* Kernel 2.4.18 and XFree86 4.2.0 with DRI/GLX, they are configurated properly (Quake3 runs nicely)

This is the bug:

I don't see the water texture. Fonts and icons aren't showing too. The screenshot: http://lilo.uah.es/images/cubebug.png

Thanks in advance :)

Fonts fixed, water don't.

The maximum texture size for Voodoo 3 is 256x256. 'newchars.png' is 512x512: i've resized the image. The fonts are showing now.

The water texture is hardcoded and i don't know how resize it.

Please, can you write a patch?

Spend the extra fifteen bucks and get a geforce2(mx). Your entire life will get better if you do.

Oh... I can't live without "hibernate", and the Linux nvidia driver doesn't support that feature.

Seriously, a Geforce2 is too expensive for me (130 €! I could pay for English lessons with this money).

OTOH your donation will be appreciated X)

More ideas?

Ebay is a shop far, far away. Too expensive shipping costs.

I come from Afri^H^H Spain, live in a near-to-where small village, and i hasn't got a car.

My motherboard doesn't have an AGP port and the local seller sells 3D Blaster PCI (geforce2 mx 400) for 124,99 € only.

It's a sad story, isn't it? :)

Thanks for your interest but i will write the patch, if nobody writes it first, because:

* Cost for patch: 0 € (I must only study OpenGL %}).
* Cost for Geforce2: X €

Note: X > 0.

My 4 years old Voodoo works fine except for Cube. I have the manual with technical specs. Why change?

this is not a problem with the v3, but with the linux drivers. On windows the textures are correctly scaled down.

Maybe for next release I will integrate a workaround.

Finally, Cube works fine with Voodoo3 on Linux, although the driver is broken. I resize the images, mantaining aspect ratio:

packages/golgotha/water2.jpg
packages/payne/Brick58_512x512.jpg
packages/models/monster/bauul/skin.jpg
packages/models/monster/rhino/skin.jpg
data/newchars.png

The maximun size of textures is 256x256.

You're really getting screwed over there for video card prices. There's a Spanish eBay you might want to check out.
