@constitution: i ran it as root

@jeff: so what does that mean?

oh woops, i meant i did make install cuz check install didn't work

@td-linux: i did scroll thru it, i didn't see any.

oi...ok i got it all done and i did the check install and this is what i got at the end. dunno what it means, beyond the fact that somethings wrong. otherwise it looked good. make[2]: *** [bzflag] Error 1 make[2]: leaving directory '/root/bzflag/src/bzflag' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 m...

im down to the "make" instruction and its taking forever!! ah! im kinda bored but its working! yay! thank you both! (now someone should post this in an easily acessable place for all to see )

ok, we're getting somewhere. i've got cvs and i got the libraries. but when i tried i dont know the password. trop?? is there some password built into it that i dont know? or did i screw it up?

@trop: its still not working, i dont know why.

@jeff: actually the first line says, cvs:command not found

@trop: it keeps coming up with "no such file or directory"

@jeff: im using mepis. and i'd like the code thats compatible with the current servers.

trop...look at the title says: linux from the source OS is linux

not sure where to put this, so i put it here, move it as you will, jeff. ok, so i want to build my version of the latest bzflag from the source. unfortunately, i have almost no computer knowledge. i've heard its possible to build it from the source, so thats how i know that in the 1st place. i was b...

Im useally in the top 5...

if its pillbox, and sometimes ducati, i can get into the top 3 w/in minutes. on pb, im at the top w/in 10 or 15.

i get tired of it from time to time, but its only short little things, like maybe for a couple hours. the only time i've ever been away from bzflag for any amount of time was in the beginning when i was a n00b and didn't know what i was doing. but i came back and its been 5 yrs and i'm still hooked.

so...are we skipping 2.1.x? or what?

hey jeff, what about the cool shots in the screenies?

hehe my graphics card can handle it... dont ask me what i have, cuz i have no idea. all i know is its good and it can handle bz.

yeah i saw that today actually. there was no one named (UNKNOWN) but someone said "ok i'm back" it was really wierd.

man i wish some one at our school knew what the heck bzflag is.

i can't wait!! omg! it looks so cool! i love the bullets!!

lol i just spent 10 mins trying to figure out how to work it, it was great.

It's funny to watch an entire group of people flock to an easy assumption that is yet no more than an assumption. isn't it? Nothing else changed / edited / whatever... so what exactly is it that you "can tell" about my image... ??? Idiots. now instead of restating everything donny said, l...

lol i knew it was a fake.

103-0? i'm a bit skeptical... but if its truly real, gj!
