#942: Re: Arena Infinitum

yes and no, i still think it would be better to have some limitations myself, it gives you more options (should i attempt to run for the teleport or try and kill a ton of enemies), i wouldnt say it hurts the gameplay as long as your playing at an appropriate difficulty level

I think I wasn't clear. What I'm saying is hurting gameplay is lack of variety and lack of cover in the map.

You must be talking about instagib mode then. The rules that define a mode are hardcoded and can't be changed in script.

#948: Anyone here thought of making models ?

by Al_Capone on 12/08/2002 03:22

I know some good freeware if you interested.

by Piglet on 12/08/2002 09:56, refers to #948

Oh, ok pushplay, but again im not really trying to make a serious fully fledged single player, just a zone to mess about in, i could spend time trying to add variety to arena2 or i could spend time making another map, for me its easy knowing what id rather do, if you think you can improve on then go ahead :)

alcapone, firstly it dosent suck its just the way the game works, get used to it, and secondly almost everyone hear is probably up to their ears in freeware, for me my love of freeware led me here and im sure im not alone in that

#950: Fonts not showing

by kabads on 12/09/2002 11:26

Installed fine - Mandrake9.0 - 3dfx voodoo2000, but when I press escape to make changes, the menu comes up as rectangles and the font isn't implemented.

Any ideas?

Instagib is just a different way of playing the game. I find it interesting to try but can't say I particularly like it though, maybe with a slower game it could be cool, but with Cube it seems pretty absurd, especially with a good bit of ping goin' on.

Are newchars.png and menus.cfg both in the data folder? Can you talk in the game?

#953: bug report

by pushplay on 12/09/2002 21:19

When xm music with 31 tracks are played in game, any other sounds in game like weapons fire and jumping go completely silent. This might be a problem with fmod, I wouldn't know. You can find such a music file here:

#954: Re: bug report

by spentron@PP on 12/09/2002 21:45

That's possibly actually 32 tracks, or the mod decoder is upping it to even (some formats only allow an even number). Anyway, it's probably set up for 32 track mixing which leaves nothing (it must not seperate music mixing from mixing everything else). I see the mixing performance comparison on the fmod site is 32 track.

#955: use cube as DLL.

by freddix on 12/09/2002 23:20

should it be possible to make 3D engine in DLL format to use it with C++ or programming langaes that support DLLs

I ask you that because I code using DarkBasic Professional ( www.darkbasicpro.com ).
It is a basic langage oriented Direct X and an OpenGL engine should be a +

DarkBasicPro support the add of new DLL to use as new commands.

If cube can be builded as DLL , it should be possible to use your excellent 3D engine for others kind of games like RPG , MMORPG , 3D shoots en up , and more . . .

Simply by building it as DLL and giving the list of included functions( to create string table that make the link between your 3D engine and DarkBasic Pro )
