Please? :) Also, can I look at the source of the software to see if I cannot convert it to MySQL DBs instead of text files? Hehe.. Sorry - having Ubuntu running 2 vers...

Hi all, I got bored so I created a php script which would edit a predefined image (*cough* Winny's *cough*) and add various things to it, save it, and change it. The server info on the left is the top server and the list on the left is a unsorted list...for some reason. I don't have much use for it;...

When I first played BZFlag, I thought at first that I had to put an email in to play, so I made one up and hoped it would work (it did).

The images would be affected, but the corresponding template would need someone to make those images for the language (which...

Oh nice work. Sounds like you're on the right road. -Maybe shot paths (for tanks or world weapons) to determine if they will hit the right place. -Trajectories for physics drivers (for ones that move the tank; not kill it) so you can get it to land on just the right object without testing 100 times....

I dont see any Linux download but i'll look at it and if I like it I'll try my new crossover program.

I see no point in creating a modification to the official release of the server for a race server in a shooter game. You just spin round and round.

LouMan's race map is atleast shootable and fun.

Open Windows Explorer.

Right click on fairCTF.zip, select Extract All. Click Next/Extract.
