Hello all... this thread is for discussing features you would like to see in cube, and in particular those that you find most urgent. If lots of people have the same urgent requests, I may give it priority to be implemented.

I think selectable playermodels would be a bad thing. Selectable skins woulde be better, that way everyone would have the exact proportions, so no one would have any slight advantages or disadvantages. I think whats more important is to get more of the old good Cube maps in Sauerbraten. Like b2k, kmap2, biologie and countless others.

I dont like models so buh to ragdoll.
But instant death material sounds good, but you can still make a nice death trap with "clip" material and two teleporters... play around with it.

Im also dreaming of more materials, such as colored glass, so that mosaic's can be possible for those "gothic churces".
Lava/Acid would also be a nice alternative to red/greeen colored water.

A smoother/faster texture browser is also part of my dreams =)

As guest57 posted : upcoming releases will have a texture-menu ...
If you want a faster (dunno what you mean with smoother anyway) texture browsing in your current release paste this into your autoexec.cfg :
<SNIP>

_MWmod = 1
editbind LALT [ _MWmod = 10; onrelease [ _MWmod = 1 ] ]
// redefine texture scrolling to benefit from MWmod
delta_edit_6 = [ edittex (* $arg1 $_MWmod)] // change textures

</SNIP>

if you want a faster texture browser, please send me a jpeg loader that can load hundreds of large jpegs in a split second.

I'm not sure if this has been done, but caching the texture thumbnails would be good - so the first time you use it would be pretty slow compared to next times?
Also, if I am correct, in GL/SDL you can actually use one image and "split" it up when in usage, I'm very brief and unsure :P

Glad I could help you out;
just wondering why you haven't looked into QCSP yet ... http://www.quadropolis.us/node/435
I mentioned it on this forum a while back too, when there was some other editing-speed-up request. That's the basic idea of that Script-PAK ;)

Since the next edition has the mentioned texture-menu I guess this isn't really wiki stuff ...

for your editing start-up I propose the following approach:
generate a "/newmap", save as "go_go_gadgeto_editing", edit it's config for a "loadsky staffy/staffy" and place following lines beneath it :

<SNIP>
gadgeto = [
edittoggle
sleep 300 [newmap]
]

sleep 5 [gadgeto]
</SNIP>

then start your sauerbraten with "-lgo_go_gadgeto_editing" for your editing and /regularly/ for playing.

There should be instructions somewhere,If there is then I missed it/Don't know about it and I ask you to up put a link please,This is also for other guy's who want to play around with the incomplete features.

Or better yet,Beta testing and report bugs in the CVS.

You don't always need to compile CVS, most of the time the binaries that come with a CVS update are relatively new.

by Wolf Man on 02/23/2007 18:19

but adding most of those things you need to change in CVS would be better if changable in a menu, rather than going through a complicated process, not everyone who plays this game knows what CVS is or how to use it

Saurbraten is undoubtly a good fps, but there is one thing i miss, some kind of lift or elevator.
I am not sure how you could make one, maybe with a mapmodel like the doors, but i really think it would be a great addition to sarubraten, because im not really a fan of ladders in fastpaced FPS games.

Is it actually possible, or can i forget about seing one i sauer?
