Official forums for BZFlag.org

There might be a french forum around, just like the German and Polandish one.

Well, technically you could make 360 boxes, each rotated 1 degree and it would make a circle, right??

Hehe. Have fun with that one!

Use the search button, it is your friend, just like google

P.S. I love your avatar... where did you get it?!

Hmm my blender export doesn't seem to work. Can someone paste in the code for a pyramid? Thanks a bunch! Edit: got it mesh # faces = 6 # checks = 0 # vertices = 8 # normals = 0 # texcoords = 0 # mins = -50 -50 26.99 # maxs = 50 50 27 vertex -50.00000000 50.00000000 27.00000000 vertex -50.00000000 -5...

These are way too big to be rewards.

I agree, it should show flag caps on the side of the scoreboard, that would be perfect.

It would be useful if you gave us the type of mac you were using.

If you have a meshpyr, can you add a different texture to the different sides like you can a meshbox? example: meshbox name meshy outside matref my_cool_wall top matref my_cool_roof end ...Will apply my_cool_wall to all sides except the top, and my_cool_roof to the top. Can you do something similar ...

a cd case. Each sharp corner equals a vertex. Now, with just those 8 vertices you would have just 8 little dots in space. Now, when you make a face, and apply vertices to it, you have a solid 2 dimensional figure. When you connect the 4 faces together, you have the entire solid 3 dimensional figure....

If you have a material, to be able to see it you need a mesh with the material applied, no?


Right?

Donny_baker, i love your sense of humor. As for the map, it is O.K, I like the pyramid structure.

For those who wished Win XP did not ignorantly decide not to post the link to the wiki:

The BZWorkbench will provide an easier way for some of the map makers who use applications to make a map. Cheers goes to -jude for working on it. Hopefully, the MDG will provide tutorials for the rest of us who choose to write their maps by hand or use a 3d application such as blender or Wings3d. So...

Look at the Progressive Flag mode, I think it was made by slayer++ but I am not completly sure. It has similar characteristics, such as when you kill a x amount of people you get a flag, after x amount more you get a better flag, etc. This, however, only applies to one person, and not the team. I'm ...

Good Luck, MDG, I am looking forward to seeing some awesome maps from you guys. One thing I have seen many of the newer bzflag map makers ask about is meshes. If you guys could create a tutorial in the future about meshes, including how to add materials, passables, deaths, colors, and physical drive...

Hello Again. Thanks to some help from Your Best Friend, BZLego.net has a new design and some new features. I will be posting some tutorials on the site on a regular basis from now on, and I will provide a space for you to showoff some of your BZFlag related Artwork. Please check out the site: http:/...

I must say, try to be a little more creative with your map titles. If I search the forums, I could probably find atleast 5 maps by that name, and more if I were to search the Mapatorium. Here are some common names: 1). 4 Towers 2). 4 corners 3). CTF War or CTF Battle 4). Intense CTF or Intense FFA T...

Ok, let me make this clearer, the podcast would be found on iTunes and online. It would be besides the point to do a bzflag podcast on how to make a signature, that would be a photoshop podcast. What i could do would be to make a video podcast showing bzart saturos, me1, palomides, romfis, Links, ot...

Hello there guys, I have decided to rebuild BZPod as a fully functioning, bi-weekly podcast. Anyone can submit audio (Without background music.) to be put into the podcast. The first podcast theme is the New BZFlag Wiki. Topics to be discussed: How it got started How it grew How you can edit Topics ...

Here you go, thanks for the tips palomides


Btw, what color background should i use?

Make one "Face" Passable, and the reverse face not.

i reversed the order

Here's my latest experiment with blender

Note to self: get a better renderer for mac. Any ideas??

It really depends on were you go ductape.. some hosts cost 15 bucks.. some 2... ect.. it is not based on european money, and not on American either..

I would suggest you do some reading:

http://www.w3schools.com/html/
that is a very good site to begin with, also, try not to resize the image of the tank, it looks awful imho..

-Lego

ill work on that later
