You said you compiled BZFlag, so I will assume you are on a *nix system. If you did make install, and left it at the defaults, $PREFIX is usually /usr/local. Specify this when starting BZFlag from the command prompt:
For instance, if left at the defaults ($PREFIX = /usr/local)
You only need to do this once, after that it is stored in your config.cfg. Give it a try and let me know if it works.
Code: Select all
-directory $PREFIX/share/bzflag
Code: Select all
-directory /usr/local/share/bzflag

that worked(thank you), but now it gives another error:
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 10 (XF86VidModeSwitchToMode)
Value in failed request: 0x4c
Serial number of failed request: 147
Current serial number in output stream: 149
Before you guys ask, i have direct rendering enabled.
EDIT: I have googled and found that if we call bzflag with --window it works.
It's a shame i can't play it in fullscreen.
EDIT2: I can change the resolution inside the game and it works fine .
