#50: Re: editing mode

You need to reinstall Sauer in a different directory other than the one you had it in. In other words, do a fresh install but not over what you already had for sauer.

Oh yeah, I'm also having the fuzzy skybox problem also.

Can anyone post a screenshot of this "fuzzy skybox" problem, and also the "Renderer: ..." and "Driver: ..." lines that were printed to your console on startup if you had this problem?

#53: waterfalls

by whobob121 on 09/14/2006 05:35

please i'm desperate to know how to fix waterfalls. I can see waterfalls.jpg but i need to know what .cfg file it uses to connect to the game. I have already did fresh install but no use

#54: Re: waterfalls

by eihrul on 09/14/2006 05:43, refers to #53

The waterfalls in fixed-function are currently broken. That was a bug that unfortunately made it into release. Nothing you can do right now. Rest assured, the waterfalls look like crap still. They're nothing more than the same scrolling texture we always had.

Yeah, I reinstalled Sauer into a totally new directory and I still have the grid waterfalls.

Try deleting your old autoexec.cfg -- this happened to me at one point and it was becuase they changed the default scripts that control editing.

#57: render order

by ethan592 on 09/14/2006 06:15

the explosions and particles and all the other effects still render ontop of the water

#58: Re: render order

by eihrul on 09/14/2006 07:48, refers to #57

That is not likely to change in the foreseeable future until we basically do a total rewrite of how particles work.

#60: Freeze?

by CrazyTB on 09/14/2006 15:07

I noticed some small freezes of not more than two or three seconds. But now it froze hard. Then I switched to another terminal and noticed sauer was not using CPU. Then I killed it (with -9). On xterm, this message was printed:

Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

(I know, not very useful)


BTW, makkE the new models/hud are excellent! At least something as good as old Cube cubes. :)

I would only suggest you to increase the icon size on weapon models. Currently it looks too small, specially at long distances.

Mac Version works fantastic. FPS have increased (from 33 to 52 at one of my test-spots on the roof in "the towers"!), too bad my Radeon 9000M can't draw the new water.

The armor looks nice, too, and it's cool that the ogre now has a visible weapon. Oh, and the rockets look great, especially the incoming ones...

Great work, keep it up!

#62: Re: scraps of scripting

by MeatROme on 09/14/2006 21:25, refers to #62

please place scripting stuff on quadropolis - and simply post a link here.
That's way easier - for everybody.

#66: HOM and missing face?

by CrazyTB on 09/14/2006 23:54

I found two bugs on a map I was creating:

http://denilsonsa.sh.nu/~denilson/screenshots/sauerbraten-screw/screw.ogz

Open above map. Without moving, look up. You should notice hall-of-mirrors effect.

Now, walk around and look at those spots shown in screenshots. There is a missing face. Pulling corners will make that missing face reappear, but pushing them back will make it disappear again. Changing geometry nearby might remove this bug.

weird bug...
Sauer compiled perfectly (64-bit Ubuntu) but it seems there is some problem with the textures:

Did you run it using the provided shell script? Did you run it from the correct directory? (hum... but it loaded the map... so I guess it was at correct directory)

#69: Another bug

by CrazyTB on 09/15/2006 03:35

At "cerberus" map, I found a little bug:

http://www.quadropolis.us/node/287
http://img129.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sauerbratencerberusfj9.jpg

Sometimes, at some spots, a portion of map is not drawn. The screenshot above shows a player start location, from which I haven't moved, just rotated the view (just moved the mouse). Depending on camera angle, that big portion of map was or was not rendered.

You should now be tired of my bugs... :)
