Right click on desktop and click "Configure Desktop", or "Configure", or "Properties" - cant remember which one it is.

I've had simplymepis before - make sure you have the Nvidia/ATi specific drivers enabled, it will draaasticaly speed up opengl handling

Its somewhere in a Display Config panel..

Strangely reminds of WinXP's Chaos Valley - I like that style, a lot.
Interesting

"I still don't see American flags"
lol - is it possible to change the flag texture on the server side?

Wow - reminds me a lot of that courtyard in Paper Mario - looks very nice

I voted for the older version, and here's why: 1. I have a slow computer, and the new structures make gameplay a little too jumpy. 2. The new map provides too much space for tanks to occupy. It's harder to find victims. 3. My GM camping spot isn't as good as it used to be. 4. 7 wing flaps is 4 to m...

Wow! That glass tube looks awsome, from what I can see

Heh - actually ducatiwannabe made the map - I was just hosting it temporarily for him. I believe he said you inspired him to make it.

Incredible! It looks quite playable so far - keep up the good work .

Its probably better-hosted there anyway - sorry, having some lag problems at camelot.

Put the small attached file into your bzflag directory, then run the attached file (it is called "bzflagbots" Then join a server, and 4 bots will be with you. You can edit the file in notepad to change the number of bots if you wish. To prevent security concerns, here is the file code: bzf...

Apply the switch -solo numofbotsyouwanthere

bzflag.exe -solo 10

If it attracts some decent traffic I may leave it up - I'm "map shopping".

I tweaked the tank speed a little, to better suit the openness of the playing field.

If you have any problems with it, let me know.

Wow - interesting layout on the green/red base platforms - another nice job

I don't like the idea at all - >Anything< can happen when people scrapple over money online. There are so many cheaters and modd'ers that a cash prize could create utter havoc. I doubt you will have much interest, because: 1) You have no rep in the forum [ no offence ] 2) Possible cheating/patches 3...

Very nice! I love it

Awsome job

why not use -advertise? a password has it's drawbacks, for example if the password leaks. this is more likely if you have lots of people knowing the password. If I understand right, -advertise takes the server off the public list, correct? This requires the end-user to enter the servername and port...

After playing Digital Paint Paintball 2 for some time, I find the server password function there very useful. Servers with the password enabled are public, unlike the current bzflag method, which requires either group'ed spawn permissions, or just hosting the server privately [ not on the publiclist...

The one on the ground - those lights are awsome.

Wow - Judging by the screenshots, those base concealments look aWsOme!
Very nice-looking indeed.

I absolutely agree - so glad someone finaly expressed this in a post - thanks.

Hmm - something about it looks quite old-school, and I like that. Looks like a good playable map
