#1168: intentional regression in new releace

by tuta on 11/30/2020 13:05

Today i try new releace (2020 edition). I can not play it in third person view, the way i play it for years.
1) It is not good.
2)It is bad.
3) It is like going to stone age from age of hot pizza delivery.
PLease, dont let me down. Return pizza delivery age so i can play with you in new releace. Reverse maden mistake of dissabling third person view 1, thirdpersondistance, thirdpersonup in play mode. Thank you. I forgive you.

Thirdperson will not be making a return when playing actual matches. It only works offline or in editmode. We appreciate your feedback but you can play without it too.

I’m sorry for I can’t obey to your understanding of the game/fun. I can not play without third person view. Playing in first person is for competitors. It sux. I play for fun. There is no fun in first person view. Specifically if you are used to some way, and then someone forbids it with no special reason - in my honest opinion. Thank you for your efforts.

it was disabled specifically because it can be abused to see people from an angle that isn't otherwise possible.

View was restricted in collect edition, but was not removed. In collect edition, restriction was on thirdpesondistance 50 max. Reason - so people can not abuse it to view behind the walls. You could "abuse" it to see over obstacles in about hight of the player model.
You can still use third person 2 to see at angle that is not other way "possible", and to shoot in all "impossible" angles. That leads to conclusion that regression is one problem, inconsistency is another one.

#1173: Maps missing from game type lists

by someguy2 on 12/01/2020 15:41

This isn't a major bug or anything but was an issue with the previous game and this one.

Some maps don't show up on game types they support.

Examples: fc4 and fc5 both support ctf but neither are listed when you look on the menus for that game mode. You have to load them in manually or hope the server has been set up to use them, etc.


I don't know if it's fixable the users side but would nice to have an official fix.

There are other maps with this issue but I don't know their names at the top of my head.

Did you try to launch it from command line ? I think you'll get more info about the problem if you do it.

#1176: OpenGL 2.0 or greater is required

by brownspike on 12/09/2020 01:13

Hey

I recently updated to the 2020 version of Sauerbraten. Since then, I have encountered the following error when launching the game "OpenGL 2.0 or greater is required". When looking at the log file, the renderer is listed as GDI Generic (Microsoft Corporation). The previous version of Sauerbraten runs without issue and correctly identifies my GPU. I updated to the latest graphics drivers, but this didn't help. Any suggestions? Thanks!

More Info:
Windows 10 64 bit
GTX 1070

#1177: Re: OpenGL 2.0 or greater is required

by brownspike on 12/09/2020 01:29, refers to #1176

I was able to fix the issue. For some reason the Sauerbraten folder in "documents/my games" wasn't deleted when uninstalling the previous version. I deleted the entire folder, and the game launched normally. There must have been a setting in the old files which was causing my error.

#1178: relativemouse 0

by notas on 12/09/2020 22:57

We've discussed this before, but relativemouse 0 has (according to two reports) teh same bug on mac as it does on windows (mouse movement trapped in an invisible box). I haven't looked into either user's case extensively, but since it's the exact same bug (with video proof in one case) I think it's safe to assume it's just borked

#1179: Bug in gzstream::size()

by pix on 12/26/2020 20:14

Not a game bug per-se, but something that should be fixed nevertheless:

in stream.cpp, the size() method of the gzstream struct should use rawtell() (or file->tell()) to remember the position before seeking to the end and back, otherwise a call to size() will reset the read position to before the header. It happens because checkheader() doesn't advance zfile.total_out, which tell() relies on. Alternatively, return headersize + zfile.total_out from tell() maybe?

#1180: Bots start firing before I go out of the corner

by daniel3 on 08/15/2021 02:13

When playing CTF mode on the abbey map, I found that bots can often start firing before they actually see me, so when I go out of the corner, there's already a rocket or a machine gun burst waiting for me.

I switched to the spectator mode and found that, indeed, they can see through the walls and start fire in advance. Here's a short video:

#1181: sdl2 upgrade causes beeps

by 101010 on 01/15/2023 21:57

On linux (archlinux, 2020 version) an upgrade of sdl2 from 2.24.2 to 2.26.0 causes beep artifacts when flagdrop.wav is played, the bug was confirmed by two other archlinux user. On a downgrade of sdl2 the artifact beeps don't occur. I could pin it down to the file having a sample rate of 44100Hz, converting it to 22050Hz fixed it. So an easy fix could be simply down sampling those files:

./packages/sounds/ctf/flagdrop.wav
./packages/sounds/awesund/cg2.wav
./packages/sounds/awesund/cg2_full.wav

#1182: Sounds missing after sdl2 upgrade

by mart3nsite on 09/14/2023 10:55

I'm running sauerbraten on archlinux. After upgrading sdl2_mixer package to version 2.6.3-2, there are no more shot and portal sounds. Downgrading sdl2_mixer to previous version 2.6.3-1 fix the problem. I tried on a second computer running archlinux as well and had the same issue.

#1183: Visual artifacting/grafical tearing

by LETomppa on 10/12/2023 19:38

1)
Operating system: Windows 11

2)
Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080

3)
Version: Sauerbraten (2020 Edition)

4)
Error information: No error messages

5)
Description: From the menu, you first select multiplayer, and go to a multiplayer game (I went to CTF). Then you leave immediately back to the main menu. After this you go to the campaign mode. This loads the world with your gun in hand, but out of the map and you experience this visual artifacting/graphical tearing. Almost like in solitaire when you win a game and the screen fills with ghost renders. The character dies shortly after this and then respawns and the game works normally after this.

#1184: Maps do not save on Win64

by mitras1 on 12/31/2023 08:39

Yesterday I saved a map and went to bed. Today I tried to open my map, but it said map cannot be found. I opened 'packages/base' folder in file manager and there was no map. I created a new map, saved it, but the error happened again. I tried to run the game as an Administrator, but it said "bin64/sauerbraten.exe" cannot be found. What should I do?
