I've already successfully compiled and run this on Linux via the mono project, so I assume it should work on a Mac as well (using the mono project). The code is in SVN under .../trunk/bzflag/tools/ if you want to build the latest version. The .exe version I have posted here should run with mono.fluffy mcduff wrote:what about for mac?

You need to use mono ( http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page ) to compile the program on OS X, since it's a Windows-based application.
Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
ok, I have a minor problem, I run the program and enter the locations for everything just like I'm suppose to (idk how to properly phrase it) and I ran it before to test a map that a friend made and worked like a charm. What would be the best solution, download the .net frameworks?

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
oh and I forgot to say the problem, it's "error connecting to server", but is localhost so idk what the problem is, would there be a bad pathway to a app or something?

Hit 'Stop' and read the error that bzfs generated.

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
You don't have a base for the Green Team (and probably missing it for another team as well, as it's likely a 2-team CTF map). The solution is to add an options block to your map and provide the proper -mp setting so that only those two teams are enabled. For example, if you only want red and blue to play, add this to your map file:
That will allow 5 of red and blue, as well as 5 observers. The format of the values is as follows:
rogue,red,green,blue,purple,observer
This is unnecessary in the 2.99.x code, as it just automatically disables the teams that don't have a base instead of refusing to run the server. For 2.0.x though, you'll have to supply the -mp setting.
Code: Select all
options
-mp 0,5,0,5,0,5
end
rogue,red,green,blue,purple,observer
This is unnecessary in the 2.99.x code, as it just automatically disables the teams that don't have a base instead of refusing to run the server. For 2.0.x though, you'll have to supply the -mp setting.
Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
Thank you, but do you know why it only worked 2 times then failed the next few times?

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
I downloaded the two links under blast's original post edit, but when trying to run the main download, i get the messages "application cannot be handled" (or something like that), and then something about "JIT debugged" or something. It also states before you run that, "the publisher cannot be verified".
Does anyone know what is wrong?

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
Works fine for me on the my computer at work. Did you install those two files (starting with the first installer, and the installing the service pack)?rhapsody wrote:I downloaded the two links under blast's original post edit, but when trying to run the main download, i get the messages "application cannot be handled" (or something like that), and then something about "JIT debugged" or something.

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
Yes, i installed those things in order but I still get the message that the "application cannot be handled". Maybe it has to do with administrative rights? or maybe a firewall? I'm not sure..
Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
My launcher isn't really supported anymore and has been replaced by StartBSFS. So see if that one works. For that one, you need the 3.5 runtimes installed instead of the 1.1, as it's built with a much newer version of C#.

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
Then you shouldn't be running a server.
Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
I use this launcher all the time (on a MAC). For quick test of maps, it's easier than StartBZFS. It's also the easiest way to start a local game with bots

Um, I wrote it on an XP system. So it definitely works on XP.

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
Thanks, way better than my old .bat server maker. It loads the map, but it wont let me connect to the server. I think Hamachi is causing the problem, but its off. My old server starter had problems when hamachi was on and then when i got it to load, the server would shutdown the second I joined.

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
I've been using this for awhile as i had nothing but issues with the conf files and my isp trying to run BZ solo. The one issue I am having is it never seems to produce working teleports. Am i missing something?

Re: BZWTestLauncher Beta 1
