#3930: Re: How to run.

by e:n:i:g:m:a on 01/30/2005 16:58, refers to #3929

well, that depends on how you've installed it...

If you simply extracted the tar.gz to your home directory then you should do the following:

1. Open a console (konsole in kde, for example)
2. type cd <insert cube dir here>
3. then type ./cube_unix

(don't include the <> tags)

That should run cube fer you...

--------
if you installed cube from a package manager software (such as in mandrake) then what you would probably have to do is:

1. Open a console
2. change to root. To do that you need to type the 'su' command and then your root passwordf
3. then type 'find / -iname cube' This find all files that have "cube" in their name
4. Post the results from that command.

To everyone that complains that the newest version of cube is slower, just keep in mind that the default maps are MUCH more detailed than the ones in cube2003, so it will run slower. If you compare the same maps, you will see that the fps is pretty much the same.

I had some free time tonight and on #cube we talked about some funny 'mod' leaders. So I decided to refresh my php knowledge and set up 'the rabid viper victims page'.

#3935: Linux installer script

by loz-linuxizer on 01/31/2005 07:25

Hello all. I have just written a Linux installer script. Having occasionally read, but never posted, to this forum, I know how people are all elistist and shit...but I decided to have some fun and write a quick script to install cube in Linux, so here it is (nothing I can do if the forum messes up indentation):

#! /bin/sh
# Cube installation script for Linux.
# This script, unlike the game, is licensed by GNU Public License
# 1/31/2005 - wjholden@gmail.com

mkdir $HOME/tmp/cube-installation-script-tmp
cd $HOME/tmp/cube-installation-script-tmp

echo

PS3='Choose Sourceforge.net mirror : '

choose_mirror()
{
select site
do
echo "This download will resume if you kill the script and restart it."
wget -c $site.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/cube/cube_2004_05_22.tar.gz
echo
break
done
}

#3937: Re: 2004 version slower than 2003 one

by Dylan666 on 01/31/2005 17:13, refers to #3918

Ok, the solution was very simple!
In 2003's version the resolution is defaulted to 800x600 atm. Instead in 2004's one the resolution is defaulted to 1024x768 atm.

Changing the file bat all is ok.

yes you can, look in the readme.html

one machine runs server.bat, the others(incuding server machine if you want) connect to it using the clients.
all you need to know is the server´s network ip address. Or the computer name if it´s a pure windows network.

#3942: Compile

by Stevaux on 01/31/2005 23:27

I'm a student at Wartburg College working on a senior project using the Cube engine. Before making modifications, I'd really like to get a build from the source code we have, so we know that we have it all compiling and everything before we mess with it. I'm down to one file: clientgame.cpp. Here's the errors that I get when I try to compile:

clientgame.cpp:207: error: no matches converting function `sleep' to type `void
(*)()'
/usr/include/unistd.h:390: error: candidates are: unsigned int sleep(unsigned
int)
clientgame.cpp:205: error: void sleep(char*, char*)
clientgame.cpp:207: warning: `bool __dummy_sleep' defined but not used
make: *** [clientgame.o] Error 1

The lines in question are the function "void sleep(char *, char *)" and "COMMAND(sleep, ARG_2STR)"

Any help would be nice. Thanks.

Steve

Thats because the function sleep is already defined in one header files that come with a linux os.
Just write
#define sleep m_sleep
on the top of clientgame.cpp and it should work. Some maps that use the sleep command might not work correct, you will need then to rename sleep to m_sleep in the scripts or translate it in the code.
