#6036: Re: Constant crashes

by MeatROme on 07/11/2006 20:27, refers to #6035

I've experienced this since the days of Cube, as far as I can make out this happens most when joining players have extremely bad connection.
Haven't found a viable solution to it yet :(
I guess in some rare cases it might even have to do with hacked clients invading the network;
once we tried to play some 2on2 capture and had the server in LOCKED mastermode,
a player joined - flooded the chat with "stupid LOCKED mode, I wanna play".
After we had kicked him and switched to PRIVATE mode the server suddenly crashed after 2 minutes or so,
then we rejoined and 1/2 minute later it kicked us all again ...
... we went on to play on a lower bandwidth but non-puplic IP server and enjoyed our game :)

So, there is really no possible way to stop crashes except a low bandwidth game?

That's not what I meant - it was just what we did that one time.

But yes, you'll just have to live with these crashes - as hard as this might be - I've had to give up many a good fight because of this too ... so I guess I just want to say : I feel with you!

#6046: Custom Model Import ?

by Questioner on 07/12/2006 01:51

Anybody written a custom maya importer for Cube2 ? Desperately would like to use it commercially, so MD2\'s not an option, would also like to carry on utilising Maya (no MD2 conversion, either :( ) ?

Looking for animated data from maya into engine, any format, as long as I can get from Maya to CUBE, direct x would be good, etc

#6048: Using custom textures in Sauerbraten?

by tbag on 07/12/2006 06:31

Hi everyone!

I've recently installed Sauerbraten and im having a lot of the fun editing and playing around with it. However, i was wondering how to use my own textures in Sauerbraten?

I have read the documentation and unfortuneatly i can't even seem to edit textures on cubes even when i use T+Mouse Wheel. And i couldnt find anything on importing textures etc...

Sorry if this is a newbie question but yeah im totally lost and yes i've searched these forums aswell.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thom.

#6049: Model Import

by Hikarisuke on 07/12/2006 06:49

What model formats does Sauterbraten natively support? I'm about to write a OBJ importer for a commercial project and I wanted to know if one natively existed before starting.

Also,how do you change the volume of a material? Everytime I set the erase material to water, I get a thin 'ceiling of water over an empty pool.

#6050: Re: Using custom textures in Sauerbraten?

by eihrul on 07/12/2006 07:02, refers to #6048

Y+Mouse Wheel edits the texture (the docs seem to be out of date on that point).

For "importing" textures, see the associated .cfg files that sit alongside the .ogz files in base/ for examples.

Sauer Supports md2 and md3. There arenīt any other formats yet.

Select the inside of the pool (you can do it with "/selextend". Then go /editmat water.

Questioner: I donīt think there are any licensing problems with using md2/md3 I might be wrong though.
Thereīs no maja importer.

Converting directly to a q3 map would be very hard to code I imagine.


You can export to .obj .You can then export it to .map from various modeling apps (blender and max I believe have .map exporters. The .obj will contain geometry only.

#6055: RTFM

by MeatROme on 07/12/2006 13:27, refers to #6054

Really this is described in the documentation, also it should be pretty intuitive ...

Let's say your on map metl2.
Open your console and enter
/mode 1;map metl2
or
open your menu and select:
- multiplayer
- vote
- coop-edit
- metl2

When in editmode you should start a
/newmap
and if people join you should
/sendmap
and tell them to
/getmap

HTH
