Well this may seem obvious... but first you need to compile the code or get a binary. Download the source from http://bzflag.org/wiki/Download and do this:
Then again we could use more info.
Code: Select all
tar -xvf bzflag-2.0.2.20050318.tar.gz
cd bzflag-2.0.2.20050318
./autgen.sh; ./configure
make; sudo make install

Internal server will be much simpler. Here are some instructions...
Go to: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/supa ... z?download and download that
Assuming it's on your desktop do this in the command line (subsititute anything that may be wrong - like username):
Then you open bzflag on your Linux computer and enter for the server localhost and port 5154. Now you can test your maps. If you need anymore help just give another post.
*edit*
Don't do this on your PC. All the instructions are for Linux.
Go to: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/supa ... z?download and download that
Assuming it's on your desktop do this in the command line (subsititute anything that may be wrong - like username):
Code: Select all
cd /home/username/Desktop
tar -xzf bzflag-2.0.2.20050318-i386-Opkg.tar.gz
cd bzflag-2.0.2.20050318-i386-Opkg
./bzfs -world /home/username/Desktop/myMap.bzw

Read this page: http://my.bzflag.org/cgi-bin/man/man2html?6+bzfsWin Xp wrote:how do I acces the confoguration file for my maps I forgot
I need to change from the default options
It gives you all the possible options. (You won't need some of them) Put all those options in a .conf file on your Desktop. Then use it like this:
Code: Select all
bzfs -conf /home/username/configuration.conf
Sorry about replying so late.
