| 01:15.24 | Winny | would BZ run on a Intel GMA 950? |
| 01:15.48 | blast007 | bz runs on my 855, so... maybe |
| 01:15.54 | blast007 | ;) |
| 01:16.00 | blast007 | and yeah, it should work just fine |
| 01:16.32 | blast007 | though I guess "fine" is relative.... let's just say "it will run" |
| 01:16.35 | Winny | how many FPS do you get? |
| 01:16.44 | blast007 | me? 30 to 60 |
| 01:16.47 | menotume | weill it run on my old 4Mhz z80 ? |
| 01:16.56 | Winny | alright |
| 01:16.59 | Winny | thanks blast007 |
| 01:17.08 | blast007 | menotume: I ran 2.0.something on a 486 75MHz with 12MB of RAM ;) |
| 01:17.16 | menotume | hehe |
| 01:17.28 | blast007 | back when secretplace was up and popular |
| 01:17.29 | menotume | my z80 only has 64K RAM |
| 01:17.32 | blast007 | hehehe |
| 01:17.49 | spldart | Wait... lemme boot my Apple II GS |
| 01:18.15 | menotume | hehe |
| 01:18.23 | spldart | Nope! ... wont run on Z80 co-processor |
| 01:18.32 | menotume | CO processor ? |
| 01:18.41 | spldart | Yep |
| 01:18.48 | menotume | that was THE main processor |
| 01:18.52 | spldart | processor and co processor add on |
| 01:18.56 | menotume | ahh |
| 01:18.58 | spldart | did math accell |
| 01:19.04 | menotume | hehe |
| 01:20.04 | spldart | Was kinda unprofesional looking add on pcb with the z80 and a couple interface IC's and it piggybacked the main pcb near the main processor with a few jumpers stringing to a few other main pcb locations |
| 01:20.37 | menotume | yep, i had to get a whole 'nother BOX to add RAM to reach 64K |
| 01:20.54 | spldart | chip by chip |
| 01:21.05 | menotume | chips ? |
| 01:21.08 | menotume | you had chips ? |
| 01:21.19 | spldart | You don't get ram by the stick back then |
| 01:21.19 | rtfm | they were from potatoes |
| 01:21.27 | spldart | you get it by the chip... 8 at a time |
| 01:21.31 | menotume | we used discreet tansistors |
| 01:21.40 | rtfm | I used pencil and paper |
| 01:21.42 | awilcox | I'm about to something dumb and unnecessary, but fun. |
| 01:21.44 | spldart | they were all in a row on the right side toware the back of the main pcb |
| 01:21.54 | spldart | don't get me started on discrete circuitry |
| 01:21.55 | awilcox | I'm gonna try to run bzflag 2.0.8 on a Celeron 500 with 256M RAM and an i810 |
| 01:22.10 | rtfm | awilcox: I've run it on a Pentium III 800MHz with an i810 |
| 01:22.14 | rtfm | the fonts are a bit of an issue |
| 01:22.16 | menotume | yes spldart, i had to have a seperate box to reach 64K |
| 01:22.24 | awilcox | spldart: yep yep I've got an 8088 that takes chips not sticks |
| 01:22.24 | rtfm | might have to use bitmap fonts, I forget |
| 01:22.32 | rtfm | I usually just play on my 512MB video card :P |
| 01:22.33 | menotume | was 48 chips for 48K IIRC |
| 01:22.40 | spldart | I've got a working knowledge of tube technology and have done repairs on electronics dating back to the 20's... long before even selenium rectifiers |
| 01:22.53 | menotume | weeeee |
| 01:23.08 | menotume | i thought i was an old fart |
| 01:23.14 | rtfm | spldart: wanna fix my betamax? |
| 01:23.18 | spldart | LOL |
| 01:23.23 | rtfm | ;D |
| 01:23.30 | spldart | My shop stopped doing beta a couple years ago... |
| 01:23.31 | rtfm | someone was throwing it out... |
| 01:23.38 | spldart | No parts avail from sony for theirs anymore |
| 01:23.46 | rtfm | not even sure if it works... I don't have any beta tapes |
| 01:23.49 | menotume | how about my 8-track ? |
| 01:23.55 | rtfm | I have an 8-track as well |
| 01:24.22 | spldart | LOL |
| 01:24.27 | spldart | 8 track car stereo |
| 01:24.35 | rtfm | and a stereo system with quadraphonic output! |
| 01:24.45 | spldart | never wanted beta.. dont' like beta transport |
| 01:24.50 | spldart | MARANTZ |
| 01:24.51 | menotume | ahh, quad |
| 01:24.53 | spldart | SANSUI |
| 01:24.57 | menotume | lasted a few years |
| 01:25.21 | rtfm | I could start a museum |

| 01:25.32 | rtfm | my 8086, betamax, old stereos... |
| 01:25.56 | spldart | My favorite is a 1977 Rockford Fosgate car stereo power amplifier |
| 01:26.09 | spldart | Second... 1939 Zenith farm radio |
| 01:26.22 | rtfm | I think I even have the turn signal switch thingy for some old car |
| 01:26.30 | awilcox | lol |

| 01:27.28 | awilcox | ya know what |
| 01:27.30 | spldart | I imagime your garage looks like mine |
| 01:27.34 | awilcox | I have a tail light from an old Cadillac. |
| 01:27.47 | awilcox | and I have a Betamax SL-3030, it works, and I use it |
| 01:27.52 | rtfm | I have speakers from an old iMac |

| 01:28.19 | rtfm | awilcox: something is wrong then... you sure you had acceleration? |
| 01:28.30 | awilcox | rtfm: I'm on the i810 accel server, yes |
| 01:28.34 | awilcox | I have no free memory at all |
| 01:28.39 | rtfm | is this linux or windows? |

| 01:54.38 | rtfm | probably not the way you'd want |
| 01:54.49 | rtfm | while you could change them, they might not trigger properly |
| 01:54.55 | AAA_awright | Where are the quick messages stores? |
| 01:54.58 | AAA_awright | *d |
| 01:55.01 | rtfm | in the config |
| 01:55.08 | AAA_awright | I can't find it in the config :S |
| 01:55.19 | rtfm | you can set them via Input Settings > Change Key mapping > Quick keys (or something like that) |
| 01:55.33 | rtfm | and you could try using a /localset for various settings |
| 01:56.14 | AAA_awright | Ah, bind 1 down "set displayRadarRange 0.25" |
| 01:56.18 | AAA_awright | That format |
| 01:57.11 | rtfm | heh, guess I've never looked at those |
| 01:57.49 | AAA_awright | bind X down "set set scoreboardSort 4" |
| 01:57.55 | AAA_awright | bind C down "set set scoreboardSort 2" |
| 01:58.01 | rtfm | set set? |
| 01:58.02 | AAA_awright | Thanks |
| 01:58.05 | AAA_awright | er... |
| 01:58.07 | AAA_awright | No. |
| 01:58.12 | AAA_awright | bind C down "set scoreboardSort 2" |
| 01:58.18 | rtfm | k |
| 01:58.23 | rtfm | does that work? |
| 01:58.26 | rtfm | that one should |
| 01:58.33 | rtfm | others like quality or texturing might not |
| 01:58.49 | AAA_awright | Anything that works with /localset should |
| 01:59.15 | rtfm | I find that if I use F4 and then restore the window, some of the other /localset stuff works |
| 01:59.29 | rtfm | probably blows away and recreates the context, or at least invalidates it |

| 04:01.53 | donny_baker | evening jude- |
| 04:02.50 | spldart | Hi! |
| 04:02.54 | spldart | Bye! |
| 04:09.16 | AWOSLappy | Hey jude- |
| 04:09.43 | jude- | hey guys |
| 04:16.41 | AAA_awright | jude-: Are you going to be implementing any automatic symmetry or mirroring, or rotation? Most maps are symmetrical, and it would be nice to have the program figure that out automaticly |
| 04:17.13 | AAA_awright | And not just a copy function, you change one part and the other 2/3/4 parts change automatically after the copy |
| 04:17.52 | jude- | "2/3/4 parts" ? |
| 04:18.01 | AAA_awright | er, the mirrored sections on the map |
| 04:18.08 | jude- | I can... |
| 04:18.11 | AAA_awright | if it is a 4 team or 2 team |
| 04:18.24 | jude- | ...but there are other things that must come first :/ |
| 04:18.38 | AAA_awright | Of course |
| 04:18.56 | jude- | it's a good idea...I'll add it as soon as the code is stable enough to support it :) |
| 04:19.34 | jude- | currently though, the user input schemes need work :/ |
| 04:20.31 | AAA_awright | For example, HiX2 would be 8 sections, 2 for each team (because each team base is also symmetrical) |
| 04:21.32 | AAA_awright | And if there was only one part of the base not symmetrical, you could flag that as an exception. (prehaps) |
| 04:21.39 | jude- | in good time :) |
| 04:23.50 | brlcad | menotume: yup, that's me (at least on-line) :) |
| 04:34.01 | AAA_awright | It's return of the stats server 2.0 (yet alpha). I'm re-working on the graphs, but any comments on features that stats.bzflag.org doesn't have that you want? http://bzflag.redjacket.ws |
| 04:36.18 | brlcad | AAA_awright: are you working off of the original stats code? |
| 04:36.24 | AAA_awright | Not at all |
| 04:36.41 | brlcad | ah, shame |
| 04:36.55 | brlcad | btw, http://bzflag.redjacket.ws/index.php/leaguelist |
| 04:37.33 | AAA_awright | ...does not work |
| 04:37.59 | rtfm | brlcad: no, it's not a shame he's not working off the old stats code ;) |
| 04:38.02 | rtfm | it sucks |
| 04:38.12 | AAA_awright | It does |
| 04:38.15 | AAA_awright | This is 100% PHP |
| 04:38.32 | rtfm | AAA_awright: eh... |
| 04:38.32 | AAA_awright | Even the soon-to-be graphs which I used to have |
| 04:38.54 | AAA_awright | http://bzflag.redjacket.ws/index.php/source/scan.php is the server scanner |
| 04:42.23 | brlcad | rtfm: it can suck and still be refactored and made better |
| 04:42.48 | AAA_awright | brlcad: Every feature of stats.bzflag.org I have already implemented |
| 04:42.53 | brlcad | it always "sucks" when you're not the one that writes it, but that's really just familiarity |
| 04:43.23 | AAA_awright | PLUS some, like the ajax-compatible (or regular form if no javascript) player search: http://bzflag.redjacket.ws/index.php/playerlist/all |
| 04:43.27 | rtfm | mixing mysql with HTML... |
| 04:43.35 | rtfm | that's how the current s.b.o site is ;) |
| 04:44.43 | brlcad | i'm not saying it was good, it's about migrating from place A to place B so that everyone (that cared) remains familiar instead of jumping from known A to (relatively) unknown B |
| 04:44.53 | brlcad | and seeing that migration |
| 04:45.19 | brlcad | the same reason that its a REALLY BAD IDEA to use that "bzfs2" rewrite that the guy worked on for months in isolation |
| 04:45.47 | AAA_awright | uh |
| 04:46.02 | brlcad | stats isn't quite as harsh in that regard, but similar principles would have made a migration desirable |
| 04:46.16 | rtfm | I suppose |
| 04:46.28 | brlcad | anyways, don't let me rain on your parade, it looks interesting |
| 04:47.16 | rtfm | I still find the concept of servers pushing stats TO us interesting as well |
| 04:47.51 | rtfm | as long as the data they send is well thought-out, so that we don't realize we need something else later |
| 04:48.25 | rtfm | wouldn't be too hard to send a stat protocol string though :) |
| 04:48.27 | AAA_awright | Servers already push stats to the list server |
| 04:48.37 | rtfm | AAA_awright: no, it's a pull |
| 04:48.40 | AAA_awright | Or at least the player counts every time someone joins |
| 04:48.40 | rtfm | we request it |
| 04:48.48 | rtfm | stats, not counts |
| 04:49.00 | rtfm | stats meaning player names, scores, server settings, etc |
| 04:49.11 | AAA_awright | Those are pulled, yah |
| 04:49.44 | rtfm | and have some C/C++ daemon running that handles that data |
| 04:53.10 | AAA_awright | http://bzflag.redjacket.ws/media/bzflag.png Heh :) |

| 18:14.30 | donny_baker | i like it |
| 18:15.08 | donny_baker | still leaves it open to unregistered edits, with minimal intrusion (and then only when necessary) |
| 18:21.16 | delusional | CRW making his rounds |
| 18:39.30 | brlcad | donny_baker: I think I saw that they had an option that if there is any paste with a link to an external site, that it can impose the captcha (e.g. for anonymous edits) |
| 18:46.18 | donny_baker | yes, that is what it does, no links, no captcha |
| 18:46.37 | donny_baker | brlcad: ^^^^ |
| 18:47.38 | donny_baker | it also makes you fill one out on a wrong password attempt, or account creation to stop bots and password brute force attacks |
| 18:47.49 | brlcad | sweet! |
| 18:47.54 | brlcad | ~donny_baker++ |
| 18:48.17 | donny_baker | i have tested all the combinations that I can think of and used the audio portion too |
| 18:48.24 | brlcad | was that as simple as patching those two files, or .. just what did you have to do to enable it? |
| 18:48.36 | donny_baker | that is one well thought out plugin |
| 18:48.44 | tannerld | heh |
| 18:49.58 | bryjen | ~bzflist |
| 18:50.02 | donny_baker | yeah, upload the extension, request the public/private keys, and edit the LocalSettings.php (and then fix my keying errors in LocalSettings.php :P) |
| 18:50.14 | bryjen | ~bzfquery bzflag.mindbender.ca:5156 |
| 18:50.42 | bryjen | anyone know who runs/admins that server? CRW and others cheating. |
| 18:51.08 | donny_baker | i then tracked down the resources file for the messages that are displayed with the captch and tweaked a few of them |
| 18:51.45 | donny_baker | as it wasn't clear what to do after you answered the captcha |
| 18:52.31 | donny_baker | (you just submit/resubmit the page and don't do anything but fill out the words in the captcha) |
| 18:53.05 | donny_baker | it took me longer to test than to impliment |
| 18:53.31 | brlcad | cool |
| 18:55.14 | donny_baker | there are a few other situations that you can turn it on for, such as all edits and page creation but I don't think we need those |
| 18:55.37 | donny_baker | that hasn't really been a problem, yet |
| 18:55.43 | brlcad | so, some require_once() in localsettings and then set a few vars basically |
| 18:56.26 | brlcad | or because it's an extension, just set the vars |
| 18:58.58 | *** join/#bzflag lodxcol (n=lodxcol@c-69-249-178-98.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) |
| 19:00.09 | donny_baker | just add the require once and put the keys you get from them in the variables... done |
| 19:01.09 | donny_baker | adding the require_once() to localsettings turns on the extension |
| 19:01.25 | brlcad | ah, nice |
| 19:01.28 | donny_baker | comment it out and it is off, immidiately |
| 19:02.54 | brlcad | and it's for a good cause to boot |

| 23:43.57 | CBG | ZOMG!!!!! |
| 23:44.09 | [dmp] | AAA_awright: its easy to make "nice urls" with it. You just create a php-file, but without the .php extension. Then you use forcetype to make apache parse it as php. |
| 23:44.09 | donny_baker | your interview was fantastic |
