enabling the images starts the game? I never knew that.

Really, we need more info...I mean if you are logged in as you say in your first post but then the last post you say "Still does not start the game."...

The way you start the game is press I or your by using a mouse button.

I remember *my* email address...lol

You may want to contact a admin directly rather than thru here.

check lagstats when something like that happens. If you notice high lag with a particular tank, you may need to adjust when you fire at them.

did not play on this one either, just took a screenshot.

Screenshot attached.

I did check this one out, appears you need to stay on the platforms/walkways or you die.

just a screenshot, I did not play on this one.

I'm the last person to critique maps so I'll refrain.

I wouldn't have a clue what this would take, but would it be possible to "code up something" that would prevent a player from using flaghistory twice in say 5 mins? Sort of like when a person attempts to run a /poll <something>, they can't do it again immediately, they have to wait for som...

unless you have something to hide.

Why do a number of servers limit what flaghistory shows?

Is there some sort of bug out there I'm not aware of?

The only reason that comes to mind is server owners/admins have something to hide when they decide to limit what flaghistory shows.

Carry on

I think I played for almost a year before I started seeing a positive score.

Hang in there and practice alot!

Tks to one of these rabble raisers, I had that type of ban against my IP Beardy on a server that was recently retired. If I tried to sign on without my reg callsign, I would not be able to connect and received the banned msg meant for Bob or spooge IRC. As long as I used my registered callsign I was...

While I don't know any of the specifics related to using a Range Ban,

Could anybody who has that capability please reconsider the use of a Range Ban, especially for IP's of major ISP's?

this is just about becoming a daily issue with my IP at least.

TIA

Steve

or "screw you guys, I'm going home"...wait a min, wrong show!

Good to see you registered that callsign!

Thanks again Blast.

OK, not too sure if this is the same thing or a completely different issue... Today I'm not able to join at least three different servers. In all cases, it is exactly like this original issue I had with Ziggurat's server, I join, it says Global Login approved, but my tank doesn't spawn. Ziggurat's s...

you are probably never going to get close to the calculated light-second time but you will definitely never ever have a better lag time (because it is physically impossible to go faster than the speed of light [most likely, though some current findings may disprove that soon] an out of the box type...

if you installed bz that was provided by opensuse, it probably won't work.

I had to compile it from source.

Thanks Blast for the heads up and a RTFM! I had that file open actually, but was looking for configure options (as found in the INSTALL file)so I didn't actually read it. Installed c++, bz compiled and now runs!?!? Sweet! Yeah Grans, patterns, although I haven't used them yet, I recall seeing someth...

configure isn't working out so well, ends up with no bz client avail. Build ares ........: yes Build curl ........: yes Build glew ........: no (clients disabled) Build regex .......: yes Build zlib ........: yes BZFlag client .....: no bzflag client binary! (need OpenGL) BZFlag server .....: yes (w...

Burned multiple 12.1 dvd/cd's and multiple failed installation attempts,and I finally realized it all had to do with their failed attempt (again) at creating their own, non-proprietary nvidia 3d driver! installed the proprietary driver (the "easy" way thru one-click install), and 12.1 fina...

2.4 was working fine on opensuse 11.4 upgraded opensuse to 12.1 and now bz 2.4 crashes with a Segmentation fault. I tried renaming ~/.bzf and restarted bz. Bz started, but when I choose to populate the server list, it crashed again. Now it just crashes immediately after starting. tried debug, but it...

only 130+ servers showing up, is that to be expected?

what was it before, 250+?

attempt to drive perpendicular to the gm shot, while turning slightly so you can match the curving arcs of the gm shots. Note, depending on server/map settings, it will be harder to stay perpendicular to the shots due to there is a variable that controls how tight a gm can turn. As for wings, I've n...

works now Blast, Thanks

Anybody experiencing issues logging into Ziggurat? I've sent a pm to ziggurat and have not heard back yet. I make it as far as seeing "Global login approved!" but yet do not see a + sign next to my callsign, nor are there any other players listed. I can see flag placement on the radar - I ...
