#4245: Mod - sp_thefarm

by steveh on 10/14/2009 14:21

I'm trying to include the 'monster.h' from rknight21 'sp_thefarm' mod into the latest Sauerbraten source. The modded monster.h combined with the 'nummonsters' variable in the current monster.cpp would greatly enhance SP gameplay. Despite many hours of trying I cannot make it work ( The C++ is way beyond me at present).
Of course I will ask permission from rknight21 to use his code in any mod I build but any advice to get this working will be greatly appreciated. LONG LIVE SAUER SP !

I suggest you try somewhere like http://www.gamedev.net/ and learn basic C++ first. There are also some pages on the Cube Wiki such as: http://cube.wikispaces.com/How+to+approach+modding

Sorry, but we won't teach you how to do basic coding. We're making games not running a university.

By changing the background do you mean the sky?

If so, you can use the /loadsky command in the console :

Maps are saved in your home folder, if you have one.

In this folder you will see a lot of .BAK files with the name of your map. Those are older versions of your map. Just rename one (preferably the latest) of them to yourmapname.ogz
Then you can open it in Sauer again.

the integer is of the millis since engine-start - so each numbering represents consecutive changes and the time it took ;-)

#4257: Texture Slots/Texture Maps

by 8BitTonberry on 11/15/2009 23:36

Hey guys! I've been working with Sauer for a while, and I\'ve recently started making my own textures.

I know how to define the textures, and I know how to scale the most recent ones, but I have NO idea how to set the texture slot to add depth maps, glow maps, specularity, or anything.

So, choosing the texture slots is really my biggest problem, but how to define the different maps would be nice to know, though I can probably figure it out when I get the slots right.

Guys, help me! How to make elevators? I tested a lot of types of values in console, and nothin works! There are good gun'nrun map so, it need an elevator

http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editref.html#_elevator_

There are also existing maps with working elevators that you can use for reference.

I was going to mention the demo map I made when elevators, etc. were introduced, but Quadropolis seems to have lost it. (It'd didn't demonstrate everything it should have, anyway.)

#4262: playing my map

by mgsfan18 on 11/22/2009 20:57

I was wondering how to play a map outside of edit mode?

by tentus_ on 11/23/2009 00:13, refers to #4262

Hit E to enter/exit editmode. Beyond that I really have no idea what you're asking.

Perhaps you mean how to load the map? First, save it using the /savemap X command. Then load it later with the map command X. X should be replaced with the name you want for your map.

#4264: saving and void alias

by lenzorg on 11/23/2009 01:18

I am working on a sp game with a few levels. Now I want to save the progress of the game. So that your progress is still saved, when you restart the game. From what I know an alias will only be saved in the config.cfg, when in a guifield. Like this:
guifield $level1done 1
1. Is there a way to save an alias without putting it into a guifield?
2. Apart from this: Is there an operator that will check, if an alias is void? What I try to do here is something like this:
if (void $level1done) [sp level1] [sp level2]
when I do it like this:
if (= $level1done "yes") [sp level2] [sp level1]
I get the error "unknown alias lookup". Maybe there is just a way to prevent this error message.
