#4647: Why were pingpong's songs removed?

by madcrow on 07/12/2005 14:44

I just got the final Cube release and noticed that several levels no longer have music because they look for PingPong's soundtrack and don't find it... It's not hard to d/l a replacement copy but I was wondering why it went away? Trying to keep the size down?

Because it was replaced by fanatics soundtrack. You could simply copy the pingpong folder over from the old release.

#4653: Missing Textures In Win98SE

by Utterly Despicable Newbie on 07/15/2005 07:38

Hearing magnificent stories about "Cube" and its associated miracles, I located this site. Unfortunately I experienced difficulty after installing the contents of "cube_2004_05_22.tar.gz" from SourceForge.
The models, sound, particles, skybox, and *some* textures display, unfortunately, the vast majority of textures do not, creating a sort of global HOM effect. What am I doing wrong?

Very latest video drivers (both ati and nvidia) do sometimes generate problems like that. I can only speak for nvidia on 98se, every driver newer than 45.xx would cause problems, exept the very latest.
Try searching "ati" or "nvidia" (or whatever card you have) on this board to get more specific info.

#4655: What do I do now?

by King Cole on 07/15/2005 17:06

I downloaded the tar.gz file to my Mac running OS 10.3. I installed SDl. I unpacked the file and opened a folder called "cube." I thin unzipped the file called cube-osx.tar.gz. It produced an Application icon named cube. However, when I double click the application icon, nothing happens. What else do I need to do to get cube to run? Thanks in advance for your help.

#4656: Running cube server on OS X

by Goroth on 07/15/2005 19:13

There doesn\'t seem to be a specific server in bin_unix for OS X. I\'ve tried running all the other UNIX servers but none work (I have chmod them all). In terminal I get the message \"cannot execute binary file\" For all the servers I try to run.

I\'ll be grateful for any comment on this, answers on an OS X server or getting other servers to work.

#4657: fpsrange in Sauerbraten

by Bart on 07/15/2005 19:39

I can't seem to control the lod in sauerbraten, whether i have fpsrange 60 100 or fpsrange 100 130 or none at all in my autoexec.cfg, I always end up gonig up to 200fps in the very small "default map" and as low as 60fps in larger maps.

I would like to keep the fps at around 100, as I have configured my monitor to operate at 120Hz @ 800x600, my personal goals aside though: why does the "dynamic lod modifying" to keep the fps within a certain range not seem to work in Sauerbarten?

2.8Ghz P4, FX5600, 512M 400mhz DDR, Linux 2.6

Thanks a bunch!

Turn on vsync.
Lod doesn´t work, because there is no such thing in sauer.

Well, not yet anyways. Wasn't the whole point of the octree format to allow a nice LOD system for landscape geometry?

by Xain on 07/15/2005 23:18

I know how to make switches, but when I put them in a blank CUBE map they are not attached to the wall how do I do that?

How do you make water? I have no clue how to do that...

B.t.w. Love your game :D

#4661: cant connect to server

by dying_inside on 07/16/2005 01:57

ok. whenever i try and connect to multiplayer games i cant. it says it cant cponnect to server and read aard3.ogz. which is just a lode of coding or somthing....
any idea what to do to solve this problem ?

#4662: Re: fpsrange in Sauerbraten

by spentron on 07/16/2005 04:19, refers to #4657

fpsrange only tells the engine when to change LOD. Fall below the lower value and LOD drops. Exceed the upper and LOD increases. Try it on Cube where it works, either using a much slower computer, a much higher resolution, or a slower map such as many of mine ... mm1 comes to mind, I used to get drops to 8 fps at 640x480 ;).

Re #4685, place the switch closer to the wall. You might even need to make a non-solid cube inside the wall so you can control the height.

by dying_inside on 07/16/2005 20:07, refers to #4663

never mind. i sorted it out. i still need to figure out how to connect however. if you could give me directions i would be glad. it says that connect local host should bring up a master server which will give me a list. however this does not seem to work. it just tells me to see aard3.ogz which is a bunch of random symbols letters and numbers.
can anyone tell me what it should say soiknow it is alright ?
