I'm not sure (don't use Mac, but Linux and Mac OS is Linux-Like). Just create a file without extension (e.g. Cube) and write the path to the cube.app-file. Then just write the parameters you'd like to set behind it.

E.g. ./Cube.app -w1280 -h1024


PS: Don't know if it works on mac.

#5113: two small questions

by zw3rv3r on 12/13/2005 15:03

I downloaded and succesfully "installed" sauerbraten yesterday (13 dec 2005) but I have a small question regarding gameplay.

How can one switch from 3th person view to 1st person view, and back. The RPG maps switch you to 3th person view, but I'm not able to switch back to 1st person view when entering another "normal" map. Can I use a console command to do it?

I'm using game mode -2 (single play)

OS: Windows XP pro sp2
CPU: AMD Duron 1200
GPU: Geforce 6200 AGP
Game: SauerBraten

#5116: Creating a cube debian package

by solemnwarning on 12/13/2005 19:11

im trying to create a .deb cube package for debian, but cube seems to need you to always run it from the cube bin dir because i get this error:

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)

how can i make the data, packages and other folders be in another dir such as /usr/share or /usr/games/cube?

Cube in Debian has come up before. Someone COULD make a deb, but it could not go into the main repositories for two reasons.

A) non-Free artwork. Unless Aard can get every texture artist to license their art for reuse then the art, and levels, would have to go in their own package in the non-free repository.

B) Lack of multi-user support. This is cube and sauer's most significant problem, imho. For all the amazing things Aard has done, he has not taken the time to make the game run from /usr/local/games/ but keep configuration and downloaded maps in ~/.cube/

that is OS specific conventions. Cube is not geared towards linux, it just happens to run on it.

#5120: Re: Douze jumps

by makkE on 12/14/2005 12:52, refers to #5104

Some intresting stuff there ,Nathan,
but "triple" and "cratejump" require no tricking at all, can all be done easily without strafing.
Backstrafe is pretty easy, the other way round is way harder :) strafe and strafe2 was nice.
"downfall"-not hard but good for play I think.

by hungerburg on 12/14/2005 13:11, refers to #5119

for some years now, windows is multiuser too, and there is a place for windows apps to store preferences, downloaded stuff etc. in the users home directory. having this separation was a plus there too, if you ever wanted to have a cube installer that puts the main exe and stuff into c:\programme. now, how to make such a split work across platforms (osx being different again)?

I know. I'm moving right now, and Nieb mainly handles the hosting side of things (plus the sexy maps he makes) - I generally handled the site design in terms of modules, taxonomy, etc. and I'm moving right now. I'td only be like an hour or two of work to add a content-type for models, but I can never find the time.

The webmasters e-mail is not responding.
It would be great if you removed the broken links from the frontpage bottom.
Oh, and please add Gnep Teams address.

#5127: What are

by MadZab on 12/16/2005 15:27

Console commands in cube? I am absolutely no coder or anything, just enjoying a good game BUT I'm also quite slow when it comes to reaction times so I'd like to, i.e. spawn more ammo or sometimes enemies too. Can I do that in Cube or not? Can I change gamespeed in-game?

Try a lower skill setting. Set it before starting the sp game.

#5130: Wouter.fov120.com

by Feg on 12/21/2005 19:24

Is wouter.fov120.com up and running properly? When I try to run a server it never gets any response and the game crashes when I try to use the server browser. I can still use the site in my browser (and it's not cached).
