#9316: Re: ..

by perhapsdemosthenesagain on 10/20/2007 02:00, refers to #9312

I've already isolated the problem to the way Sauerbraten and SLi interact. It has nothing whatsoever to do with vsync, as it occurs both with vsync on and with vsync off. This is a problem that I suspect only the coders or others with SLi who have found a way to fix the problem could help with, so please don't suggest things that are sure not to help. Thanks.

SLI can also (in my case) cause water bugs. The easiest way to fix this, short of disabling SLI, is to go into the 3d settings of the nvidia control panel. There should be a tab for individual settings, scroll down till you see sauerbraten (it's there by default), and force SLI AA

#9318: Question about LAN

by Overpowered on 10/20/2007 03:46

Is it possible to play with 2 people over LAN on co-op on the single player levels? With the demons and stuff.

That option seems to be a deprecated one with the 163.xx drivers. :-/ (SLi AA, I mean. I'll look again, though.)

Not currently, but it's being considered for some point in the future.

I wouldn't hold your breath, though.

If you can't figure out how your system enables you to input control-chars (try Alt-Gr + NumKeyPad on Windows or just press Ctrl + L on Linux) then using a wrapper script should at least give you control over colours ...

... oh - BTW - in console input
you'll NEVER see the control-char,
it'll be there though - so press your desired number after it and keep typing, the line should then be coloured as desired ... end your colour with "f" (for back to white) ... or better still ... always start them of with "s" (for save previous colour) and end them with "r" (for restoring to the last saved colour).
(Of course the "f", "s" and "r" need to be prepended with the control-char)

#9323: mutable map

by kerno on 10/20/2007 22:01

Hi,
would Sauerbraten engine be suitable to use in 3d tile based, game with changeable map. I'm looking for some 3d engine that could support a game similiar to first parts of X-COM/UFO series, eg: multiple levels (but confined to layers tiles of constant dimensions), terrain that changes during gameplay (tiles that chage appearance as they take damage or walls that can be demolished). I'm ready to implement the logic, however I'd like to do as little graphics engine programming as possible.
If not, do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks & regards
Peter

Maybe not Sauerbraten directly, but Cube maybe, as it is basically a terrain generator pretending to be an FPS, and doesn't use lightmaps like Sauer does.

Try changing your Z-buffer depth, on the command line run sauer with the '-z24' or '-z16'.

Thanx

#9329: Where does sauerbraten access fov?

by Memphetic on 10/22/2007 15:06

Where does the game access (in the source code) the variable defined by typing /fov <int> ? The only thing I've found is a line saying VARP(fov,10,105,150) which apparently initializes and sets boundaries on the variable to be controlled by /fov. I want to make this a non-variable though, so I need to know where it is accessed in the sources.

#9330: Re: Where does sauerbraten access fov?

by MeatROme on 10/22/2007 15:22, refers to #9329

That /is/ where it's defined (look at commands.h for the alias used) ... simply replace the line with "int fov;" ... maybe you'll need to add an "extern int fov" into one of the headers though so you can access it outside of it's scope.

You mean lock the FOV?
Just set the max and min to the same number.

by MeatROme on 10/22/2007 22:02, refers to #9332

Ha! LOL ... yeah,
but that's a /little/ hack-y, mmh!?!
This way the user'd still get fov TAB-autocompleted, for example.

Not to put a damper on your enthusiasm (XCOM remains in my Top 5 Games of all time :), but UFO: Alien Invasion already exists to provide an Open Source recreation of XCOM. I highly recommend checking it out:

http://ufoai.sourceforge.net/

They need more "arty" people to help create new maps and scenarios.

#9335: Re: Where does sauerbraten access fov?

by Quin on 10/23/2007 03:54, refers to #9329

Change to:

VARP(fov, 1, 105, 0);

When min is more than max, the variable is marked read only. You'll find a few of these around the Sauerbraten source.
