Try updating your soundcard drivers.

Also, what OS are you using?

#5407: Converter

by CodeRed3 on 03/19/2006 08:13

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but there are so many posts to look through I wouldn't know where to look.

I need a program that can convert .3ds to .md2 (That is what Cube/Sauer uses isnt it?) Or something that convert 3ds to something else that is convertable.

Thanks, trying to get some stuff made :P

#5409: ppc linux - different cube protocol

by leeck on 03/21/2006 00:21

Hello

I do understand that you want to avoid
cheating. But you are dicriminating
other architectures than i386
on cube servers!

I have a ppc with linux and can't
play on my own server (i386).

Sorry, but security through obscurity is
so lame.

Anyway, cube is cool, good work but bad
politics.

greets leek

P.S.: No I don't want a selfcompiled server because, I don't like to play with myself.

Easy, just use Q2Modeler, it can import .3ds models with no trouble. I'm not clear as to whether or not texture coorinates get converted... you'll have to play around with that on your own.

I recommend Philip's final version, which i think is still hosted somewhere on polycount. go searching for it, it'll turn up.

you know, we should probably package up a slightly adapted version of Q2Modeler and put it on quadropolis, if we can get Philip Martin's permission

if you can't find phillip's final version, Jami picked up the project and made this version:

http://www.vb3d.com/Download/q2mdlr9b.zip

its got some bugs in it that i can't deal with, but it does have some nice new features. remember that neither version natively saves to md2, but rather exports to it (md2 has some compression involved in it)

#5412: Singleplayer maps...

by Pxtl on 03/22/2006 14:26

Spmap 3 includes a lot of megahealths - and isn't really playable because the megahealths only ad 10 health instead of the 100 they used to. It's really really hard - fighting Bauuls in close quarters is tricky.

#5414: Re: a few short cuestions

by Passa on 03/23/2006 21:25, refers to #5413

for question 1, edit the cube.bat file in notepad

you will see "-w1024 -h768" change to your liking

2. dunno bout that one, cube uses md2 but there is a way to convert 3d max stuff into md2.

3. nope, however that feature exists in sauerbraten, put /thirdperson 1 into the console.

have fun with cube, you should try sauerbraten as well

Whoa, just tried sauer in 3rdperson. Rockin'. Can see the little pickup notes when I grab stuff. Very cool. Camera needs to be a little higher /further back though because I can't see much with ogro in the way. And a player model with a longer stride is needed, because Ogro's amphetamine-driven dancy run is annoying to watch in 3rdperson mode.

Really want md3s and vweps now.

You must add it to your mapīs config.
In your map, simply type /newent mapmodel # (the number your model is in the list)
Then, if you want it to show up in your menus, you will have to edit your menus.cfg accordingly.

1. When you press G, the cube will become solid. Thatīs the only way to make a pillar oe wall that goes from ground to ceiling.
Use the scroll wheel for everything else.

2.Point "below" the wall.

3. Pull up the floor, lower the ceiling, put solids around = hole.

4. A teleport needs a teledest entity. (so it knows where to port)

6. (?) Add a playerstart entity.

Read readme.html

you could change it so that the healthboosts revert to the original +75 in SP only, and add another entity incase SP mappers want the +10 permaboost

Just for those who haven't heard, Savage has gone to freeware. The download size makes me appreciate cube and sauer a bit more :)

http://databox.topcities.com/
has a list of download locations.

#5422: Turning in Cube

by firemario on 03/25/2006 23:49

Is there a bind key command so I can turn left and right with the arrow keys instead facing the direction with my mouse? I don't see it, and I think it's odd that Cube doesn't have it considering most FPS do.

#5423: Re: Turning in Cube

by dbox on 03/26/2006 01:55, refers to #5422

I'm pretty sure this is not there. The level of control you would have with that would be terrible. You would have no way to control the speed of your turn.

I considered something similar for my joystick mod, where you could map joystick buttons to control the direction you were looking so I wouldn't have to require an analog stick. But I realized it would be hard enough even with the analog stick to match the accuracy of a mouse.

most modern games do not have a turn binding. unless you are talking about DooM or quake
