Death Barrel, I find it a waste of time to discuss my specific decision about HoW publically. I fully avoided such a route when I replied to this thread. If you touch upon that, I will simply ignore it. So, I don't have any reason to comment on what you said. (For the parts that didn't touch upon th...

So... I feel a team should have the right to deny any match request. As for official matches, I don't want to go ahead and play if I feel I'd risk unfair conditions (in terms of network problems, behaviour of players etc). In an unofficial match I don't see a reason to care about that in the same wa...

Ah right. They changed the name. I've been so busy with school stuff so I have no clue what has happened in BZ world meanwhile.

A few things that were mentioned: - Integrate BZBB with league site? Could be done if the league site is moved to another site. - Some interesting 4 vs. 4 matches with random players from CTF teams. Score would be shared between those in some way. - Creation of a #bzmatches channel, where people cou...

I just wanted to make a short notice while I have some time to write. :) The league meeting didn't go as I had hoped, and some of you may be disappointed. Mostly this is because I didn't have a good list of topics to discuss, and it got done a little hastily. However, I hope some of you had fun. If ...

Okies. New schedule approved.

No reactions on the "schedule" yet. Oh well.

Basically, this is just a reminder. Hope to see you all on Sunday!

UTC clock is here, for reference:

blast is talking about the memory on his graphics card.

It's a nice idea in a way, but unfortunately I think the game would never be the same if we added something such as weapon aim at this point. Nothing stops people from doing a fork (i.e. a new project based on this one) of BZflag, though. :) However, you can play BZflag just fine with the keyboard u...

Nice design on that site. Hope to see some more contents coming up.

BTW, I'll update our links on the Fortix site soon.

n0id, In Linux I always have a full pointer. As for the half-pointer, I have a suggestion here. I have a very similar setup: BZflag 1.10.2 Gentoo Linux (version not applicable, it's well synced :)) XFree 4.3.0 Gainward GeForce 4 MX440 nVIDIA drivers 1.0.5328 (however I very recently used 1.0.4496 wi...

Great work Pat. I just love these shots. The textures add much of an atmosphere I think.

Hi n0id,

Sounds nice, especially as I live in Sweden.

Is the server supposed to be up right now? If so I haven't been able to connect to it yet using the information you provided above.

The screenshots of the maps look cool though. Will come and check your server when I can get in.

Dave

I just wanted to post some kind of preliminary schedule for the discussion /chat on Feb. 1st. So here goes: (All times UTC. If you don't know your UTC offset please go and look it up. I think I will post a little UTC clock on the Fortix team site later just in case someone has doubts.) 19:00:00 - Di...

He said open until January 11th... so it's open now.

Dave

My idea of an ideal spawn system for Ducati-style servers is that you get a spawn relatively close to an enemy tank, while still not spawning right into a bullet path. Spawning very close to a tank wouldn't make sense either, so some kind of balancing would be in place. It would be easiest to implem...

Just:

set email

will be ignored. Try:

set email " "

Edit: Oops. Don't miss the space here.

Or put something after "set email" and it will work.

Dave

Hm, although the following solution will probably not work so well with BZflag (sound latency (delays)), you can try running it if everything else fails: artsdsp bzflag Or, if you use ESD: esddsp bzflag But as larsl says... Try closing whatever application is blocking, or just shutdown Arts or ESD a...

Try contacting either Chestal or [dmp]. Chestal can usually be reached at IRC (irc.freenode.net:6667, channel #bzflag) without too much of a hassle.

Dave

Fortix is up for a match with you.

Dave

The day is closing in... Hope to meet many of you on #bzflag. If anyone has any interesting agenda to follow, I would like to hear... In any case, I recommend you to come and join the shooting party.

Dave

Guys, Please just take the fact that Fortix and HoW are not likely to meet soon. I have given my word on why that is so, and there is no need for Death Barrel, Carnage or anyone else to question my personal opinion on that point. I just say that you've been "offensive", and as you're assum...

Dear BZ community, The following is our story about what we feel about HoW-Fortix matches. Let me make it very clear - this is not intended to be a flame war, or an accusation of the HoW CTF league team. This is simply the truth as I see it, and why I think we won't be able to match them anymore. --...

What ski is saying is in fact one of my original thoughts with this meeting. Even if there would not be a large direct effect I believe there would be a very significant indirect effect, as the teams get to know each other better.

Dave

Hey everybody, I thought it would be nice if the CTF league teams could meet someday soon, preferably on IRC, to lighten up the community a bit. I.e. just talk, and be happy. 8) Right now there is not that much communication between teams. The meeting would most suitably be held at #bzflag on irc.fr...
