by Basden on 11/28/2005 23:18

There isnīt really much more than jump, shoot and move ;)
Thereīs a readme.html in your cube-folder wich should help.

#5088: Re: Cube does not run under SL 4.1

by LinuxUser on 11/28/2005 23:32, refers to #5079

I tried what you said, but:

[root@localhost bin_unix]# ./linux_client
init: sdl
init: net
init: world
game mode is ffa/default
init: video: sdl
init: video: mode
init: video: misc
init: gl
init: basetex
couldn't load texture data/newchars.png
could not find core textures (hint: run cube from the parent of the bin directory) (Couldn't open data/newchars.png)
[root@localhost bin_unix]#

and when I run ./bin_unix/linux_client from the parent directory, I get the same glibc error.

Also I tried to compile the source, but it doesn't compile (via make). At first it displayed some ISO C++ errors, when I fixed them it produced makefile errors. I am a C++ programmer, but I only know ISO C++ and .NET (recently switched from Windows to GNU/Linux).

yup... something similar to that. The actual algorithm can be tweaked once you have the system in place.

#5091: Re: Cube does not run under SL 4.1

by kernowyon on 11/29/2005 11:17, refers to #5088

cd into the cube directory. Don't go any further. Then, run -

./cube_unix -w1024 -h768

The mention of missing pngs means you went too far - probably into the bin_unix folder?
Don't cd into that - otherwise you get this error.

#5092: Anti-Cheating

by Superdreadnought on 11/29/2005 18:50

I've just found out, that the memory adresses for ammo, armor and health are hidden very well in Sauerbraten (2005-11-07) and memory access from other applications is denied, so cheating is much more difficult in sauerbraten than in cube (Für alle Deutschen: Ich bin mit meinem Cheatin-Latein am Ende)!

But a kick-/ban-option for admins and votekicks wouldn't be bad!

#5094: floor?

by pure_HATE on 11/30/2005 01:11

okay, i made a map in cube (first try). i hit escape and selected the new map key, and chose the default setting.

I was making a multiplayer map, and once compleated, i gave it a test run.

For some reason, you couldn't see the people, because they were going in and out of the floor!!

Is it a bug or my mistake?
Does anyone know how i can fix this?

#5095: ..

by makkE on 11/30/2005 01:41

Itīs not a bug, itīs just the others donīt have your map yet.
Vote for it, if the vote has passed, do
/sendmap
and ask people to type
/getmap

kernowyon:

I tried your advice, and this also produces the glibc error:

*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (out): 0x08cb4b20 ***

#5097: Sauerbraten Server - Question

#5098: Re: Anti-Cheating

by enigma_0Z on 12/01/2005 23:14, refers to #5092

Kinda directed to aard, actually but..

does the linux binary have the same memory protections as well?

#5099: Re: Anti-Cheating

by Aardappel_ on 12/02/2005 04:03, refers to #5098

I presume this is the new visual studio 8 runtime I have compiled it with, rather than any work on my part. On linux this should already be protected.

Not that it matters, because you can cheat using the sourcecode. Though I guess funnily enough for most players its easier to do memory hacking than to figure out where in the code to add a cheat :)

#5101: What is Cube exactly ?

by Keemo on 12/05/2005 15:33

Hey Guys , Cube looks like a pretty impressive fps maker , but is that what it really is ? And is it any use if you dont code anything ? I currently know a language quite similar to BASIC , but not a clue about C or C++ , so my questions are these :-

What's Cube (features and uses)

Can I make use of it without coding in C/C++ ?

Itīs not a "FPS-Maker".

You can change content, make maps and models, but if you want to change any gameplay, youīll need c++.

#5103: ..

by loz-linuxizer on 12/05/2005 20:52

@Superdreadnought - use a command "./linux_server>/var/log/cube.log &". BTW, I wrote a Perl script you can use to control a Cube server through a web
interface. Just search the forum for the word "cgi".
@Lambros - the child processes in a shell are killed if you kill the
shell by closing the window. If you close the terminal by typing "exit" any
background tasks will continue uninterrupted.
@anumanu11 - are you just trying to compile Cube? If so, posting screenshots
isn't going to help nearly as much as posting error logs. I will say that,
to my knowledge, no developer here uses Dev-Cpp. Most people here either use
GCC for Unix-like builds and MS Visual C++ for Windows.
