My current compiles of v2_0branch are having an odd bug. In very rare occasions my client freezes after shooting one bullet for about 2 seconds, the outgoing bullet is huge in the HUD, I can not drive, sound stops and one other player told me a shot was going through my tank. However after the 2 seconds the client "resumes" and it then plays perfectly smooth.
It happened for example at longdon.guleague.org:5158 meaning no special flags and ctf mode. My client is using some mods but nothing that should cause this behaviour. Platform is Mac OS X 10.4.10 PPC. I thought just to drop a note here.
Anyone else having that problem, too?

No issues here, in fact, I generated an amd64 deb package using checkinstall and that works really nice.

Did you get anything weird when you compiled it? It sounds like a compiler problem not meeting some requirement or a network issue (whether it be on the client side or the server side).

That happened to me after I svn updated a while ago. 2.0.9, I think. I ended up deleting my entire bzflag directory and got the latest v2_0branch again. Recompiled and it worked fine.
Long freezes after firing a shot. SW was even worse. Has not happened since. Platform is Fedora 7 on P4, intel 865 video (yeah, I know...)

The Mac 10.4 build does not work on Mac OS 10.5, nor do the sources configure, but both the 2.0.8 build and the 2.0.10 build for Mac OS 10.3 work.
Here is some output from configure that is a problem for me:
Code: Select all
./configure --enable-shared --enable-plugins LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include"

I have SDL, SDL_Image, ncurses, and I have gl.h.

Make sure you have the dev packages installed too

I feel like this is one of those "there's your sign" moments, since I posted output from configure; aren't tools such as autoconf, libtool, libtoolize, and automake installed with the dev tools? Thus, the configure output implies that I have the dev tools.
At any rate, you are only trying to help, and your help is greatly appreciated. It would have been both funny and embarrassing if I forgot to install the dev tools, but they are installed.
Here are some packages that I have installed with macports, which shows that I do have ncurses:
Code: Select all
$ port installed
The following ports are currently installed:
apr @1.2.11_0+darwin_9 (active)
apr-util @1.2.10_0 (active)
db44 @4.4.20_1 (active)
expat @2.0.1_0 (active)
gettext @0.16.1_0 (active)
glew @1.3.4_0 (active)
libiconv @1.11_6 (active)
ncurses @5.6_0 (active)
ncursesw @5.6_0 (active)
neon @0.26.4_0 (active)
openssl @0.9.8g_0 (active)
readline @5.2.007_0+darwin_9 (active)
sqlite3 @3.5.1_0 (active)
subversion @1.4.5_0 (active)
zlib @1.2.3_1 (active)
All of the packages are installed in /opt, and configure found glew but ignored ncurses for some reason.

He was referring to the dev packages for SDL, thus the reason he quoted that specific part of your post.
If you can't run 'sdl-config' from a terminal, then your SDL isn't installed properly, and that would be the first thing to fix.

Umm....gcc, gdb etc are dev tools, too but SDL has runtime libraries and development libs, too.
So when you tried to compile you installed "dev tools" I suppose you mean gcc, gdb etc but
not SDL-dev.
Please install SDL-dev.

0_o sometimes I get NEGATIVE lag reading when I use lagstats. Is this supposed to happen?
Edit: 0_o When a SW is fired, it still shows the little "muzzel flash"

Are you using the posted Mac build, or one you built yourself?
We will hopefully be posting a mac build of the final 2.0.10 release soon, so we want to be sure to get all the bugs ironed out. The current build that's on its way toward a release was built the same way as the 2.0.10RC3 build, so if it's having problems then we'll definitely want to know about it.
Thanks.

I used the v2.0.10 RC3, which doesn't exist in the wiki anymore.

Not sure what that means, as far as building yourself or using a pre-built binary; but please try
this build, and let us know if you're having the same problem.

I may have found a small bug. My client has frozen twice today while driving with someone who has SW. The player will fire a bunch of SW's, and just before the other guy dies, the client freezes. It was the exact same scenario both times. Here is a screenshot:

Any ideas when the ubuntu/Debian packages will be released?

As leopard is fairly new, the devs might be limited in just how much help they can provide at first. However, the README.MacOSX file in the source (which I believe just points you back to the regular readme) should take care of your needs.
how to compile?

I tried compiling from the source, but it didn't work on my Mac Leopard. Can somebody give me detailed instructions on how to compile properly and successfully?
