Yes, plate tectonics is a slow affair.

You're not gonna be playing in 25 million years?!

Feels like it already

i know this is a bit old but are there any mac apps similar to these? Winny has mentioned one.

Yeah, I don't think you can capture a video using WME. I believe you already have to have a video file for that to work. And no, I don't have access to a Mac. WME9 definitely has the option. I'll find where it is next time I boot Windows. Under Windows I use CamStudio in combination with ffdshow tr...

I recently upgraded to Tiger from Panther (Quicksilver 2002, yeah I know I'm behind the curve) and when did that BZFlag stopped working correctly (this was a fresh install, with BZFlag 2.0.10). It seems that there is a DNS address issue since I can only connect to games with a numeric IP address. I...

You may find a few utilities from here useful: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx Process Explorer and Process Monitor to keep an eye on what's running when you lag: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/ProcessExplorer.mspx http://www.microsoft.co...

any body been experiencing bzflag suddenly freezing in leopard? been happening to me in several instances, luckily opt-command-esc gets me out of it, so its only the game thats affected. A few more details might be of interest. E.g., which Mac have you tried it on, which gfx card does it have, and ...

And he can't work out how to add a -window switch to the bzflag entry in his application menu. I can't help him either, since as a Windows and Linux user, I don't know where stuff is on the iMac (and I'm in a different country). I tried writing a bash script to start bzflag in a window for him, but...

Command+Tab will work in windowed mode
even if the cursor is confined.

Hello From around the time of 5PM until 11PM I cannot connect to any BZFlag server, it just says "Trying to Connect" but nothing ever happens. I am still able to see the server list and browse the internet. My ISP is Pipex Homecall and I am using a NETGEAR DG834G Router connected through ...

Hmm, I replied to this post earlier but it doesn't appear. Thank you for all your responses. The energy saver feature looks interesting. Is this going to be a selectable feature? In the CVS version of BZFlag I have, it's a menu option: # Options->Display Settings->Energy Saver: On/Off It is also af...

Ive been running bzadmin using the Terminal utility. Now, when ever i create a new shell, it auto runs bzadmin, seems that bzadmin has taken over terminal. i need to use the Terminal for other things too, but i dont know how to get bzadmin from auto starting on my terminal. i just want the regular ...

This may also be the case if your video card is not especially fast. It
all depends on the implementation details.

Lately I have been having trouble with lag. I attribute most of this to my ISP, (they see a problem but have yet to find a resolution). But after investigating a little, I've noticed when playing BZ for a few minutes, that my CPU fan will kick in and run continuously until I quit. I believe my lag ...

May I ask you, please, did you have to change
anything to get it through compilation? If so, it
would be nice to know what you did.

Thanks,

Snick.
