Security problem, or cheating problem, you take your pick

This would require, at least, a bzfs code modification. It's possible that it would break protocol too, so it's not necessarily as easy as it may seem. It wouldn't break protocol, but yes a re-compile of bzfs would be required for servers who wanted to host the flag. (if your adding a flag) if your...

Looks like you are using a router for that. Thats very good. Find out the 10.0.x.x number of the computer that hosts the server and then put that number in for the server address. I bet you use an airport... 10.0.x.x is not always the LAN IP address, major routers usually host on 192.168.x.x The ho...

it was still very irritating

In fact, I wonder if I could join the dev team to speed up the development. If not, I'll wait along with everyone else. You don't just "join the dev team"... There would be way to many devs on bzflag just cause they would want to be called dev. The best thing you can do is make patches an...

Grace F, I totally agree, your just gonna have to admin on my upcoming server.


I agree with Win XP though

ok where do i put the map names to rotate? and the confs? (like say if the map names are map1,map2,map3 and the confs, conf,conf2.conf3) You would add them to the START command. Basically all you need is this: @ECHO OFF :STARTOVER ECHO STARTED OVER GOTO STARTOVER All you do is put your START comman...

Behind the scenes, Rosetta dynamically translates most of your PowerPC-based applications to work with your Intel-based Mac.

Oh... I see what rosetta is now.

Thanks guys!

One key point that I don't think was put across clearly is that the new BZFX will be promoting complete freedom. This means: say what you like and do what you like. There will be no swear filter, admin-asking is allowed. We'll make anyone who asks for it a full admin. We will also be allowing your ...

My friend got an intel mac recently. After installing it a I slapped myself on the head and said, "Oh no! They haven't released intel builds yet!"

But to my amazement it worked... When did the Rosetta (intel) build for mac come out?

hi binary how do u use a script? i dont mean to sound stupid but how do you? At least your not lazy like halo3... :lol: Halo3 Dos command line, it's like bash or tcsh? haven't you heard of "shell"? it's what you use to run bzflag servers with? aka bzfs? big_daddy2 Here's a script it's thr...

I'm with durf, I started video games at age 6 and I could usually play for 1-2 hours before my eyes would start hurting. My record on video games is roughly 19 hours (had an all nighter with a friend). Bzflag... lemme think... it would have to be viper when I first started... I would say 9-12 hours....

You can do it with scripts as well.

Hello, After a few people on my server complained, An admin asked me to post about my new server. I have, for the last three days, been hosting on and off a new server called "Purple Pwnage". Now some of you might remember this back when I was more active. It was just an experiment back th...

I would love to have the script, but isn't AutoHotKey Windows only? The way I was thinking of doing it was using a program I found called movemouse and using xbindkeys to run that everytime the fire button is pressed. I think the only thing I have to figure out now is how to unbind the key automati...

I thought of this idea when 2.0.4 came out, but didn't post about it because I knew people wouldn't like it.

I use keyboard, mouse does not centre. Sounds to me like you all need to get a real OS, if you are having problems with your current one. I use Mac OS X. Do you use keyboard only? (aka mouse turned off) Cause on Mac os X the mouse does _center_. On 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4. Bzflag centers it not your O...

Spazzy, That map is amazing. From the looks it's a good map, I bet if you can get good flag spawns on there it will be an *amazing* map!

create a new group and set your perms as !HIDEADMIN and !MUTE
With only you as member.

It is true though that the last generation of players have left. I too no longer see players like Head, Emerson or Scribo around. Scribo is the only one I know of that bunch. See I don't even know those people, and you call them "last generation"? Last generation to me is Manu and REDNECK...

Thanks for all the replies. I guess I will have to live with it... and find out how to not get shot head on , which is why I'd have liked to turn it off (can't focus on the center w/o focusing on the HUD+cursor) I relied on the mouse being at the center of the screen on lasermania, it helped me aim...

I would like to see a hybrid of tedius's and Olympics. With plugins that spawn all users at the start/finish line, and have a checkpoint. IMO good features should be hardcoded. Like zones that if you leave they drop your flag. But I can totally see gameplay modes being plugin's. Plus the fact if bzf...

lego I like my tanks without the shiny thingy. In my mind tanks aren't plastic. Don't just use one light. It looks much better with multiple spread out lower brightness lights than one high brightness light. That text looks like a seperate object, right? If so, instead of making another object just...
