#2426: Sauerbraten...

by e:n:i:g:m:a on 03/06/2004 08:25

Just wondering...

The word Sauerbraten sounds dutch. Is it? If it is, what does it mean??

to me, this sounds more like german.

http://dict.leo.org/ translates it as "marinated beef"

lol, it not only sounds german, it IS german.

it seems that most people from the netherlands can at least understand german (spoken or written) very well without having to learn the german language... on the opposite, we germans have big problems to understand dutch people speaking, it's a bit easier when we try to read dutch... ;-)

I think you'll find that the reason the dutch speak german and not vice versa is because we actually make an effort to learn it ;)

#2430: GPL

This game is GPL, right? Would that mean if i took the game, made a full mod, modified the engine slightly, and redistribute(maybe sell it) it with the source code, and host battles over a game server, it would be legal?

#2431: Re: GPL

by fsmunoz2 on 03/06/2004 19:59, refers to #2430

The game isn\'t GPL, it has a zlib license (akin to the revised BSD license). This is a permissive free software license that isn\'t copyleft, so basicaly you can do whatever you want with the code, including base closed source software with it without giving back the changes. It is however compatible with the GPL.

Anyway, under the scnenario you described this doesn\'t matter, since you could do what you described with either GPL or BSD-like licensed code.

#2432: OK

by AkLiX on 03/06/2004 20:37

Thanks. Ill have to take a look at the zlib license. I saw the engine and i got an idea for some of my friends(Heavy duty modders of Batlefield 1492)

#2433: So

by AkLiX on 03/06/2004 20:40

I can sell it without the source code, as long as i say the original software was cubengine?

#2434: Re: So

by fsmunoz2 on 03/06/2004 21:18, refers to #2433

Actuall~y you don't *need* to make attribution to Cube... as the license says "If you use this software in a product, an acknowledgment in the product documentation would be appreciated but is not required."
Read the license in source/readme.txt, it's very simple.

Now, you can actually make no attribution to Cube and keep all changes closed... that is legal, but, IMHO, morally questionable. This is my personal view and Aard surely doesn't mind if you use Cube as a base to your game even if you don't contribute anything back. Other programs, however, decided to change the license (see the Wine vs. WineX situation). YMMV.

Just as a curiosity you could also sell the software without the source if it was GPL, you just had to make the source code available upon request (charging only a reasonable fee for P&P).

I've Heard of this before, I beleive this is the "Double Orgo" Problem.

To answer your question: No, there is nothing you can do about it, it's a server problem. Either try connecting to a different server, or try re-connecting to the current server.

ok well get a text editor and modify the menu.cfg in the dat directory.

it should look like this.

bind ESCAPE "showmenu main" // it all starts here

newmenu main

menuitem "load map.." "showmenu maps"
menuitem "multiplayer.." "showmenu multiplayer"
menuitem "quit"

alias genmapitems [
alias n (listlen $arg1)
loop $n [
at $arg1 $i
alias mapname $s
concat map $s
menuitem $s
alias next (+ $i 1)
if (= $next $n) [ alias next 0 ] []
at $arg1 $next
alias nextmap $s
concatword nextmap_ $mapname
alias $s $nextmap
]
]

newmenu maps

genmapitems "flag ctf-disco ctf-dragon ctf-gzctf1 ctf-lap1 ctf-midevil"

newmenu multiplayer

menuitem "server browser.." "servermenu"
menuitem "connect localhost"
menuitem "disconnect"
menuitem "team red"
