Upload it to:

Login: verbal
Password: public

I will post it on the main page of www.cubestuff.cjb.net as well as a screenshot of it.

(O probably won't have it up until morning US time)

#985: A Puzzle

by Topher2798 on 12/14/2002 20:09

How would you go about making the RSHIFT key do the same thing as the LSHIFT key without knowing what the LSHIFT key is bound to?

Can anyone figure this out?

by Piglet on 12/14/2002 21:33, refers to #985

ummm is that without EVER knowing what lshift is bound to?

If I've understood you correctly i would say create an 'either shift' alias and then bind both shifts to it. Then you just change the either shift alias to change the effect of both shift keys

However i may well have misunderstood

#987: Help?

by ShewtmieIRBdaNeWbIe on 12/15/2002 06:00

Hello! I just downloaded cube, Im running it on a "suckway" essential, 500 mhz P3 processor, nvita 8meg vid card with 128 megs - o - ram, I run the program and its like this: Every part of the game except objects (like armor and items) dosnt show up, its all like HOM. Please tell me it can be fixed without dropkicking the tin can... I just got a burner and it was a pain to install, to take it out would be work... which sucks? Thanks!

by ShewtmieIRBdaNeWbIe on 12/15/2002 15:26, refers to #987

I appologise, it was late that night, and I didnt give enough information

P3, 500 Mhz
Win98 2ed
128 MB
8meg vid card, nvida

The program starts fine, it seems to switch to fullscreen okay, but the problem that occurs is opposite the one the guy stated in the other fourm, yeah, the one about graphics problems that I should be posting in? I appologise, again, a product of a very late night post.

Anyway, tribes 1 posed a similar problem occasionaly, with the TRPG mod and fullscreen. SOME parts of the map seem to work, like occasionaly I can see a wall, or even the big cubelike outdoors. If anyone can help me figure it out, Id be much obliged. Thanks!

Points to make sure:

Does your video card support full OpenGL? It sounds like your card is rather old, it might be that it doesn't. Don't tell us other games work fine - Cube makes use of OpenGL commands that other games hardly use, so it's likely that other games work while Cube doesn't.

If you are sure that it does support OpenGL fine, make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

For further help, tell us exactly which nvidia card you have (TNT?).

NVidia Vanta (Gateway - English) Hardware version 021, (giggle) Driver date is 1999... hehe.

Does that help? For all I know, it more than likely dosnt have full OpenGL support, when the computer was purchased, I didnt have much of an option on what I was allowed to get. I need a new vid-card anyway, so, what type would you suggest? My budget is kind of limited..

#993: Re: A Puzzle

by Topher2798 on 12/15/2002 19:32, refers to #986

Piglet - Yes, without knowing what command lshift is bound to.

I've tried the alias route, only problem is, an alias expects to contain commands, not keynames.

So, if you were to create the following, it still doesn't work:

alias SHIFT "LSHIFT; RSHIFT"
BIND LSHIFT to SHIFT

The reason that's not working is because when the alias is run, it returns the error "unknown command LSHIFT" and "unknown command RSHIFT". that's because LSHIFT and RSHIFT aren't commands, they are keynames.

Any other ideas?

Go for an nvidia card again, maybe a used Geforce 2 Ti400 or even better a Geforce 3. Just don't get a Geforce MX, they are crap.

by pushplay on 12/15/2002 21:09, refers to #992

On a limited budget? I would recommend a geForce2mx. You can probably get one used. It's reasonably fast for the price, and runs Cube great.

#997: Any way to turn down the gore?

by SHOCK on 12/15/2002 21:09

Hello All:

I have just started playing Cube. I am very impressed. I usually let my young son play games like this by turning off blood or gore, when that option is available. Is there a setting for this?

Thanks in advance!
