#3817: cooperative play

by ravalox on 12/26/2004 15:39

How do you play cube cooperatively? I started the cube.exe with the '-l' flag and I can network with people, but people who join my game cannot see the monsters I am shooting. And the monsters ignore them except that if they step in the way of projectiles they take damage. It was very weird. Anyways, how do I coerce the actual server(running cube with a -d and connecting to it) into letting players vote in cooperatively playting through a singleplayer map?

#3821: Cube hangs when playing on Mandrake Community 10.1

by delaun01 on 12/27/2004 22:09

Hello,

When Playing Cube on Linux Mandrake Community 10.1 with a Ge Force 4 MX 440 AGP 8 video card, Cube hangs (the display is froozen and I must restart the X server) sometimes.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

more info would be useful:

display frozen = black screen?

does the music plays while frozen?

what does it do if you try to run it in a small window ( ./cube_unix -t -w320 -h200 )?, to see if there are some errors on the console.

eventually the output of glxinfo.

most important:
do other OpenGL games run fine on your system? (Tuxracer...)

Display frozen = don\\\\\\\'t move

Music still play

Now playing with a small window. Please Wait.

#3824: Re: Cube hangs when playing on Mandrake Community 10.1

by delaun01 on 12/29/2004 23:00, refers to #3823

Hello,

I have played 10 minutes with Chromium full screen without problems. But with Cube, even when I play inside a windows (not a M$ one :-), hangs at unpredectible moments. Display is frozen (don't react to mouse or keyboard), music and sound still plays (I heard the monsters killing me), and I'm unable to exit the game without killing X server with CTRL + ALT + Backspace.

Please help. Cube is a terrific and great game. I want to play !

Thanks

#3825: New to cube....

by co on 12/30/2004 11:42

Just started playing cube a few nights ago and I think it's a quality game.
It runs very fast and the gameplay is good. (I run it under Mandrake 10.1)

I definately will be playing online more..

Does anyone know when a new release is scheduled?

Great game

#3826: modification and documentation

by hael on 12/31/2004 03:20

hi, i'm interested in modifying the general gameplay of cube, but i can't find any documentation on changing any of the parts of the game outside of maps.

what i'm really looking for is documentation on changing weapons and characters. changing character models and weapon models is obviously aesthetic, but i'd really like to see if i could modify the behavior of the weapons.

um... thanks.

you can fundamentally alter the way cube works, yes, with simple commands like gamespeed, or going into editing mode if you want a breather/ look around.

If you've some basic knowledge of C language, or are motivated enough to learn the basics(there are probably some good C tutorials on the web) then you can try and make some simple modifications.

The source is in the source dir, in a zip file. Unzip this, and read the .cpp files with a decent and comfortable text editor (KWrite/TextPad/vi ;)

I'd suggest you begin with weapon.cpp and monster.cpp, they are very readable and clear. Sounds like good news as it's those that you want to modify :)

Then if you think you'll code, the best thing to do first is compile the original unmodified source to check if it builds correctly on your setup.

The easiest alternatives are:
Windows/Visual C++ 7 if you've it - project file included
free compilers:
Linux/GCC - just a minor fix if your GCC is version 3.3.4
Windows/MinGW - there is a modified version of the source+enet+Makefiles to build with MinGW

#3832: Cube on Mac OS X

by fish on 01/01/2005 18:58

I tried to run cube on Mac OS X but if i try to start it, it says:
dyld: /Applications/cube.app/Contents/MacOS/cube can't open library: @executable_path/../Frameworks/SDL_image.framework/Versions/A/SDL_image (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
Trace/BPT trap

I have installed http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-1.2.8.pkg.tar.gz.
I also tried to build SDL_image, but it seams that it need another SDL build, a version with sdl-config.
So i tried to build SDL from source an than i build SDL_image (and SDL_mixer) but the problems with cube still exists.. Not very surprising because the whole SDL stuff which i build by hand is installed in a way which is familiar to me (/usr/local/...). But theses "Frameworks/SDL_image.framework/ directories seams to be macos x specific and i'm not very familiar with this mac os stuff...

So, _what_ do i need to install for Cube on Mac OS X?
PS. I tried cube and _not_ cube-osx (which is dead)

Ditto - on Fedora Core 3 as well...

Ever feel like there might be a prob with FC3?

Anyone have ideas?
Everywhere I check says thier particular programs have been made incorrectly and they had to change their code.

Which I really have no idea to do, of course...
