#22: agreement

by Rhaine on 10/23/2002 10:39

I have done all the above mentioned steps. Thanks for the outline oyoaha :)
I basically have the same problem with sdl_net I was able to find the source code for it and compile it seperately. I also downloaded the binary DLL and tried to use it that way.. havnt had much luck.. with the DLL in the Lib directory it compiles with all the link errors you described, which is what I kind of expected.. basically acts like there is no SDL_Net file there at all .. hehe
I think were making progress here but the work I have done looks like mostly everyone has beaten me to the post.. I'll keep working on it tho.

Great post Oyoaha thanks again
I will go back and repeat the steps as I think that it is a project setting that is keeping it from compiling for me. I imagine you as well shockie..

hi guys!

i forget to add that yesterday:
i also modified the worldio.cpp

if(gzgeti(f)!=ents.length()) return loadgameout();

by

if(gzgeti(f)!=ents.length())
{
loadgameout();
return;
}

and

if(nmonsters!=monsters.length()) return loadgameout();

if(nmonsters!=monsters.length())
{
loadgameout();
return;
}

but i think it's a thing everybody have already fixed :-)

so there is my *.dsw and my src file (2.74Mo)
http://www.oa3d.com/cube/cube.zip

just unpack it in your c:\w\cube folder (backup your src and vcpp folder first)

about the SDL_net indeed there are no need for it so i have removed from the *.dsw
all work well for me so far. but i have perhaps an explanation for that: my system is windows2000

(service pack3) i use VC++ 6.0 without any service pack BUT i have also Visual.net C# and so the .NET

framework (freely avaible i think) so theoretically Visual.net C# is only for the C# language, and when

i compile cube i'm still in the visual c++ 6.0, but who know perhaps M$ have put some gift inside visual C#???? :-o

let me know if that work for you

#28: C++ DSP and DSW

Great job putting that together Oyoaha it is appreciated. I get 1 error when i compile it and that error kind of scares me.. :(

wasnt able to get any info through the technical support command it lists in the error, I guess thats because MSDN is not installed.. if someone else has it installed and could look at that for me would be a great help .. if not I can install it I guess.

Thanks

#31: Win XP

by Rhaine on 10/25/2002 04:48

if anyone knows about the internal compiler error that would surely help.. I get it when I compile the world.cpp file..maybe that one is corrupted? the code looks good from inspection .. no obvious defects and it dosnt call out anything in the file..

Compiling...
world.cpp

what is that compiler file 'E:\8966\vc98\p2\src\p2\main.c', line 494? where can I find that to debug?

argh..

glad to know that finally worked :-)

first i want to thanks Aardappel for his amazing job (and to release the source code) :-D thanks a lot
i have a lot of fun to play with it, it's a nice 3d engine and i really love its simplicity

there is the result of some primary coding:

http://www.oa3d.com/export/home/oyoaha/www/cube/src.zip

it's more some experiment than any other things but someone can find some of them useful, who know :-)

i changed a bite the lighting model
if the texture of the ceiling is the sky one, the light is put to 120 for the rgb value instead of 10 (but that can be any texture and that tricks is not limited to the ceiling)

always for the light things i changed the rendercubes code by using the whole square instead of juste a triangle, ok it's no clear try to launch cube without texture (by comment the enable texture in the rendergl) with the original cube and my modified one

and finally the renderparticule by putting some kind of dynamic light. try to blast with the rocket luncher now (in a dark room)

#36: Compiler Error

by anon on 10/29/2002 05:23

I got rid of the compiler error in VC5 by changing some of the optimization options I think...

#37: u hate me! (after this)

by okasvi on 11/01/2002 06:43

i have thinked of making cheats for this game... i just downloaded sources and i have basic knowledge of making opengl cheats... i have done for cs...
things i will do: wallhack, wireframe, whitewalls, somekind of lambert...
im not sure that how they are going to work, but ill post some screenshots after im ready =)

I am glad that cube appears to attract the nicest and brightest people.

No, I am not interested in your results.

The real question is what the hell will YOU gain by making cheats... WOW I can win a game without playing fairly and without using any skills, aren't I 1337, w00t w00t etc.

And if you want to show of your programming skills then try and make something that the community will embrace rather than shun. For you will be shunned.
