Very nice!

That's just how iBZedit draws them, IIRC.

Yes, it's way to open in the middle. Maybe add some nicely textured pyramids and various blocks for some defense.

BZEdit doesn't texture anything. And AFAIK, you can't texture a teleporter.

lol_u died wrote:oh iBZedit mentioned some errors on textures. So make a note of that.

That's because, AFAIK, iBZedit doesn't support textures.

Also, you never attached the Kill Zone map file, diiing for the team.

A GU match server in New Zealand or Australia would not be amiss. :) What's involved? I mean, how many players (bandwidth considerations), does anyone need server-level access? Bandwidth wise, if your server becomes very popular, I would say you would run through about 200GB/mo. No one else would n...

You can set server variables in the map file. Have a look here for a list of all the server variables: http://my.bzflag.org/w/Server_Variables

Then you can try to upload the files to some free image hosting site (http://imageshack.us is one of them) and then paste the link to the image here.

You seem to be asking a lot of questions, all of which could be answered by a simple wiki search.

This also might not be their fault. You may be not looking and accidentally drive into one of their bullets.

Did you make this, or did you just find it?

I looked up emission and ambient at http://m-w.com and got this: Emit: To throw or give off or out (as light or heat) Ambient: Existing or present on all sides As for the textures, you would probably create a meshbox ( http://my.bzflag.org/w/Meshbox ) then add a material to it ( http://my.bzflag.org...

You can't change dir (cd) and run a different command at the same time (well, you can do it on unix systems, not sure about windows though). Try doing this: cd c:\program files\bzflag2.0.10 then do this: bzfs -j +r -world "Cover!!.bzw" ***EDIT*** Apparently you can run multiple commands at...

Thank u very very much am i an admin? if not its ok but i was just wondering : )

Why don't you join the server and see?

If you really are going to be making maps pretty consistently, I would suggest you learn how to run a map through the command line.

I remember seeing you around, good to have you back.

I have no clue. Try it and run a local test server to see.

Quick, leave now before it's too late!!

In public servers you tend to get people who switch to the winning side, quit and rejoin if their scores are bad etc.. I'm assuming such behaviour is forbidden in leagues. In match servers, people usually are playing for their team, so they don't switch to the other team. In the CTF leagues, player...

You went to ID tech too? Nice. What campus did you go to?

And have fun, don't give up because the many of the players in league tend to be phenomenally good. There are in fact several teams who welcome new or unexperienced players into their team and help them learn the various aspects of that league. Sure, they aren't was up their in the ranks, but they ...

You could take a look in the Map Release forum and see if you find one that catches your eye.

I think mine is around the default size, but my mouse is really fast. I'm usually playing in the GU league, so I guess I've optimized my settings for that.
