You should not have needed to install libcurl (or any library for that matter). Yes.... I do... now, if I compile 2.0.2 myself then I don't need it. But... If I use the one off SF then I get errors. Out of curiosity, is there a reason why you are running a copy sitting on your desktop instead of dr...

I've been looking for that "Radar in center of screen" patch.

Anybody know where it went???

If it's been talked about then why isn't it added in the game.
(I LOVE THE IDEA!!!!!)

WHY!?!?!?!?

I WANT HOT POTATOE!!!! HOT POTATOE!!!! HOT POTATO!!!!

Hmmmm......

Maybe a push flag, that pushed other people away... VERY HARD!!!
(RubberBullet)
I don't like any of the other ideas...
(KEEP IT REAL!!!)

Yes, that's a good idea.
(now if I can find that radar in front patch..........)

So you're kill on them might be stolen by another player who happens to pop in while you're waiting for the noob to fall.

True!

But, one-on-one, it's easyer to do do this:

shooting a perfect un-dodgeable spread

Then get them when they land.

Why do you need a 3D modeler?

If it's a three sided pyramid then all you need is four points.
If it's a four sided pyramid you need five points.
(both are really easy to make.)

That problem with the teleporters are because the teleporters aren't *Exactly* on the boxes (just slightly below)

It depends on the side your on! If you're on the Newbie then no jumping. (you get much, much better) If you're good then %100 JUMPING!!! (much easyer to kill a jumping person) Jumping people are harder to hit. WHAT??? NO!!! Just wait till they get juuuust before they land and open fire!!! (boom, ano...

This libcurl is brand new!!! I installed it with fink. I then used some terminal commands to "symbolicly link" libcurl to the /usr/lib/ and so it opens. The problem lies is that the compiled part is not compatible with another compiled library. (libSystem.B.dylib to be exact) The only way ...

Ok, from all I understand 2.0.2 wont work on Mac os 10.2 because it uses an updated library. (NOT LIBCURL!!!!!!) (i'm not sure on this!) For 2.0.2 to run correctly on Mac os 10.2 it must be compiled on 10.2. (it will run normaly on 10.3) I'm working on an installer script for 10.2 to install libcurl...

Ok, I'm new with BZFlag so this might be a start to logging and map rotation. Anyway, I hated having to copy and paste the code that I wanted executed so I simply made a script that did this for me. (test to get libcurl installed) (please note this is ALL in terminal... in a tcsh shell) I made a .co...

Ok, I found a solution to the problem... (or at least I think...) I conntacted my programming buddies and was told that I need to re-compile bzflag with libcurl installed... I'm not sure if this will work on Panther, but if it does I'll just compile the next version this way. (for all you Jaguar use...

Hmmm.....
Are you still running the server???
I would looooove to see it with other people!!!

"must have"-information (howto make, resources etc.) The "must have" is the source. I suggest learning how to start bots first. (-solo HowManyBotsHere, at command line for bzflag) Then take a look at the source... (Edit the bots source to change the AI) howto make, resources etc...

the .tar.gz is the compressed format... (compressed as .tar then compressed again as .gz) Anyway, there's only .tar.gz I'll unstuff it and re-stuff it with terminal (to .tar) ...

*edit*

'm not sure but I might have to re-compile it with libcurl on...

I'm using the one off of SF...
(So, this one is not the one I compiled... it still works fine)

I installed libcurl by fink, then "symbolicly linked" libcurl to the /usr/lib/. (from /sw/lib/libcurl.2.dylib) (kinda like an alias) Anyway, I got a few more libxxx errors (libcrypto and libssl). I did the exact same thing for both as I did for libcurl... Anyway I run bzflag and I get a ru...

If you tell me exactly how you did it I'll try...


OK!
(that was fun)

The wings converter doesn't work on my computer...

Here's a picture :-p

Now, if only I knew how to get this off my computer on to other computers .......

WICKED COOL TOOL!!!

I compiled it and it's AWSOME!!!
(no drag-and-drop ... I would have to compile it in MPW to do that...)

I'll try to post a picture very sooooon!!!

a texture can only be put on certain objects... (if it has the word 'mesh' in it's name it can; meshbox, meshpyr... etc. etc.) Spawn points are exactly like boxes (so you can create place holders in bzedit) Just renaim the box to zone and add the objects: flag team safety (flag stands for flags, tea...

JeffM:
Oh, I have 2.0.2 source I didn't see it though.....
THANKS!!!

You can try covering the egdes with box/mesh but flags could then land on it...

And yes 'arc' is the solution.
