| 01:41.21 | Theme97 | I need help with a plug-in. I want to constantly record every player's Z position and run some crap if the player goes below that position. It all works fine if I updated the player record, but when I drop my reversed-gravity WG, the values won't be current anymore (I get repeats around every 10 ticks). What should I do to make it update? |
| 01:45.31 | Theme97 | Hmm. It seems like it updates only when the player has a flag..? |

| 23:25.28 | supertanker | If you can find it, stick it in your drive, play the first audio track on it, and then tell me that isn't the same song as that stupid ad |
| 23:25.43 | spldart | I went doom, duke3d, long dry period, a touch of quake and half life... UT2k4, bzflag |
| 23:27.03 | supertanker | I went ROTT, Duke3d, looong period of duke3d mapping, shogo, really long period of shogo mapping, bzflag, short period of bzflag mapping, webmastering, really long period of webmastering, Halo for PC, short period of trying to get through in Campaign mode on a 32 mb video card, Half-Life, really long half-life modplaying, really short half-life mapping, and uh....dunno what's next |
| 23:27.50 | Erroneous | woot, rott |
| 23:28.11 | supertanker | actually, for some reason...I can't stand being on the computer as much. I used to play up to 12 hours a day. Now I don't as much, I get out, bicycle, and now i've started to get interestied into music and drawing/art |
| 23:29.00 | supertanker | It's odd, because I've never had reason to want to draw before, and now I want to more than anything else. And i'm a bit pissed that I cannot draw worth crap... |
| 23:30.20 | supertanker | yeah, ROTT shareware. I blew through that so fast. |
| 23:32.44 | supertanker | Blender3D |
| 23:32.56 | supertanker | although, some people, such as A10, don't like having to use the keyboard for most stuff |
| 23:32.58 | Erroneous | to fill your sails you need wind |
| 23:33.02 | Erroneous | so go make wind :P |
| 23:33.16 | spldart | I make wind... it stinks |
| 23:33.26 | spldart | to much fast food |
| 23:33.30 | supertanker | did that help? |
| 23:33.48 | spldart | Ah.. ok felt that |

| 23:34.33 | supertanker | lol |
| 23:34.58 | supertanker | One thing that helps me create a good-looking map |
| 23:35.36 | supertanker | is to listen to relaxing music. I have about 30 CDs with music from the Andes and Latin-American areas. Of course, the later isn't ALWAYS relaxing... |
| 23:35.42 | spldart | When I say new map... I still do a hybrid between 3d objects and conventional bzflag map item |
| 23:36.25 | supertanker | I love Alturas Music |
| 23:36.26 | spldart | I'm more of a alternative listener |
| 23:37.03 | supertanker | I've been considering getting back into bzflag mapping, but i'm too lazy to download Blender/wings 3d and to even play. Some parts of the community are not very...nice any more and can't seem to tolerate people who can't play well. As in, me. Usually I manage to miss the enemy in some spectacular way. |
| 23:37.46 | spldart | bzflag is a nice blend of pwning and being pwnt for me ;) |
| 23:37.50 | supertanker | lol |
| 23:38.24 | supertanker | but music really helps when you create a map. I usually listen to music from Alturas Music, or sometimes even a little rock from Chevelle. I noticed that my style is different, barely, but different, depending on what I play |
| 23:38.38 | spldart | hrm |
| 23:38.40 | supertanker | For example, with the more relaxing music, my work always turns out more smooth |
| 23:38.58 | supertanker | but if I listen to Get Some instead, I make more angular, contrasted areas in my maps. |
| 23:39.05 | spldart | I do have a 1kw audionics and a set of Carver Amazings |

| 23:39.15 | supertanker | it's subconcious |
| 23:39.25 | spldart | Jam those up nice and I'll make maps like a fool then |
| 23:39.42 | supertanker | lol |
| 23:39.50 | supertanker | just listen to something you like |
| 23:41.05 | supertanker | the other thing that inspires me, is that when I map, the process is generally more fun that the end result. I just map to whatever I feel like. As a result, my map style may vary wildly, but I have FUN doing it. And usually, other people have fun playing it. |
| 23:41.09 | spldart | I was thinking of a 'classic 80's horror' theme and a 'gambler/casino' theme maps |
| 23:41.11 | supertanker | I haven't mapped for bzflag in ages though. |
| 23:41.24 | supertanker | ...for bzflag? |
| 23:41.28 | spldart | yeah |
| 23:41.42 | supertanker | that will be interesting |
| 23:41.48 | spldart | I wish I could pull off the stuff that LouMan could |
| 23:41.58 | supertanker | I was thinking of making some sort of secret government facility or something |
| 23:42.05 | spldart | See |
| 23:42.23 | spldart | that sounds like half_life or quake or UT type mapping |
| 23:42.28 | supertanker | I can pull off LouMan's level of work with other engines. But BZFlag continues to elude me, and I have simply chosen not to pursue it. I have better things to learn in life. |
| 23:42.42 | supertanker | If you really want to map like him |
| 23:42.50 | supertanker | DO NOT GIVE UP |
| 23:43.19 | supertanker | I know it is half-life style |
| 23:43.23 | supertanker | that is what I was thinking |
| 23:43.33 | spldart | problem is time... RealWorld > BZFlagWorld in time consumption |
| 23:43.34 | supertanker | Want to see a shot of my current work |
| 23:43.39 | spldart | yeah |
| 23:44.08 | supertanker | It is for a Quake 2 based game, however, I am using Tremulous's Creative Common licensed textures |
| 23:44.12 | supertanker | let me find the link |
| 23:44.37 | supertanker | I can never remember my photobucket account |
| 23:44.51 | spldart | Iz not favorited? ARrrrr?! |
| 23:45.03 | supertanker | what isn't? |
| 23:45.12 | supertanker | oh, you mean my gallery? |
| 23:45.16 | spldart | yeayh |
| 23:45.27 | supertanker | no, it's not. It's bookmarked. As of 2 seconds ago. |
| 23:45.41 | supertanker | Here is an example of my current work |

| 23:45.52 | supertanker | http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y124/supertanker13/newcoolfan1.jpg |
| 23:45.58 | supertanker | Love my file names. |
| 23:46.48 | spldart | what appy do you use to create the 3d's? |
| 23:47.18 | supertanker | It is a fairly modern GPL editor for Quake 2 and other games that use a BSP format |
| 23:47.26 | supertanker | It's is called GTKRadiant |
| 23:47.31 | supertanker | http://qeradiant.com |
| 23:47.40 | supertanker | be warned, half-life editing does not work in 1.5, only in 1.4 |
| 23:48.06 | spldart | ic |
| 23:48.08 | supertanker | Feel free to browse the rest of my mapping stuff at http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y124/supertanker13/ |
| 23:48.50 | supertanker | Here's what the hall looks like in the editor, fullscreen 3d |

| 23:48.54 | supertanker | whoops |
| 23:49.10 | supertanker | I mean http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y124/supertanker13/coolnewroom2editor.jpg |
| 23:50.12 | JeffM2501 | techincaly modelTool can read in quake map files, so anything made by gtkRadiant will work |
| 23:50.25 | supertanker | awsome |
| 23:50.34 | spldart | Oh ree hee hee hee heeeeelllyyyy |
| 23:50.36 | *** join/#bzflag ATravelingGeek (n=ATG@pdpc/supporter/student/ATravelingGeek) |
| 23:50.47 | supertanker | what is the map units to BZFlag world units ratio? |
| 23:50.47 | JeffM2501 | ya |
| 23:50.51 | JeffM2501 | 1 |
| 23:51.00 | supertanker | so I just make them real scale. Awsome |
| 23:51.13 | supertanker | So if I took out the slopes, I could put http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y124/supertanker13/pbwars2.jpg in BZFlag |
| 23:51.16 | JeffM2501 | tho radiant is realy made for interors tuff |
| 23:51.31 | JeffM2501 | it'd turn it into meshes |
| 23:52.39 | supertanker | my point is, I could turn that into a BZFlag map |
| 23:52.45 | supertanker | correct? |
| 23:52.55 | JeffM2501 | hence mny comment about meshes |
| 23:53.02 | JeffM2501 | yes it would convet it to a bzflag mesh |
| 23:53.06 | JeffM2501 | that you could put into a map |
| 23:53.16 | supertanker | Hmm...I think I will reconsider mapping again |
| 23:53.28 | supertanker | note my lovely trees in that picture :/ |
| 23:53.33 | spldart | hehe |
| 23:53.50 | ATravelingGeek | v2_0branch is the main/stable branch, corrent? |
| 23:54.01 | spldart | yes |
| 23:54.02 | JeffM2501 | it is the current release branch yes |
| 23:54.07 | JeffM2501 | stable.... heh |
| 23:54.07 | ATravelingGeek | thanks |
| 23:54.40 | ATravelingGeek | well... relatively stable |
| 23:54.43 | supertanker | There really needs to be a better way to make realistic trees |
| 23:54.50 | JeffM2501 | there are |
| 23:54.56 | JeffM2501 | 1) model them and have some skill |
| 23:55.00 | JeffM2501 | 2) use a tree gen |
| 23:58.14 | supertanker | Lets review the options. 1. Too lazy and don't have skill / modler at the moment. 2) I think it's time for Google. |
| 23:58.58 | JeffM2501 | how can you map but not model |
| 23:59.03 | JeffM2501 | maping is large scale modeling |
| 23:59.35 | supertanker | GTKRadiant is much different than a 3dmodler. Plus, the Vertex Manipulation tool is way below what I call usable. |
