You could always compile it yourself, although it takes some effort to learn how.

That's no excuse. :-) When you come across something in life that you don't understand or know how to do, the best path to take is usually to sit down and learn it.

Try searching the internet for instructions on how to compile as a starting point. If you have issues or need pointers, try joining up on the IRC channel (click the "Chat Room" tab above and join #bzflag).

You take other people's opinions to seriously. Your not dumb, you are just new.

Before I started playing bzflag I couldn't compile anything that I didn't make. Trust me I tried really hard. With a lot of patience from JeffM2501 and a few friends I learned a great deal.

*edit*
BZFlag single handedly taught me how networking works. I actually know more about sockets than one of the IT tech guys down at WIP. Although they work mostly with router/firewall security rather than games :lol:
