Graphics Problem

[snick]

I was experimenting with recent SVN code and for some reason the side of
a tank wasn't rendering. That I can cope with (I normally aim at the turret).
But what's really off-putting is this thingummyjig (technical term) hanging
inside. In all my years of BZFlag, I never saw the hideous like of it:

Is that even the BZFlag client?

* points at the "raytrace rendering engine" text *

If anything, it looks like a modded client, so you should know what the heck it is.

looks more like a poison sack to me.

Most certainly not a modded client!

I like that idea.

Well it's an obvious fake, because what you see on the radar is in no relation to what you actually see on 3D.
Additionaly tanks dont have inside faces so you would see right through them from the inside.

It is a disgusting piece of bloody meat, I hope this is not what 3.0 will look like

[JeffM]

3.0 is invisible

3.0 is invisible

you surely meant 3.0 is "stealth"
