| 02:50.07 | spatialguru | so i know when he changed his nick and is messing with me head ?:) |
| 02:55.05 | spatialguru | his name is jew aka zero aka spy, for the record :) |
| 02:57.46 | donny_baker | we don't give out that info... |
| 02:58.02 | donny_baker | and if he isnt registered, we dont have it anyway |
| 02:58.12 | donny_baker | that would be a server owner thing |

| 02:59.52 | donny_baker | nthank you |
| 03:00.15 | Guest82333 | I have a question about my server though.... |
| 03:00.20 | donny_baker | mhm |
| 03:00.45 | donny_baker | ask away |
| 03:00.59 | Guest82333 | I am trying to add a map to the server... I went into the config and put: -world "c:\worlds\mapnamebzw" |
| 03:01.05 | spatialguru | donny_baker: thx.. it's not in the playstats pages eh? |
| 03:01.10 | spatialguru | the host/ip |
| 03:01.37 | Guest82333 | to my server? |

| 03:02.20 | spatialguru | usually by th etime i hunt down an admin for norang.. the dudes is gone :( |
| 03:02.31 | donny_baker | Guest82333: ok.. i am assuming the missing dot in mapnamebzw is a type |
| 03:02.45 | Guest82333 | yes |
| 03:02.49 | donny_baker | spatialguru: so it was on norang? |
| 03:02.57 | Guest82333 | I forgot to ty[e the dot |
| 03:03.01 | spatialguru | well, that's the only place i really play |
| 03:03.09 | donny_baker | ok.. continue.. looks ok so far |
| 03:03.14 | Guest82333 | but anyway... arn't there textures for maps? Do I have to add them? |
| 03:03.17 | spatialguru | no worries |
| 03:03.20 | donny_baker | spatialguru: then im your guy |
| 03:03.28 | spatialguru | spldart usually saves my day too :) |
| 03:03.35 | spatialguru | we banned the last dude no problemo |
| 03:03.43 | Guest82333 | I have been using this method with other maps I have but it only works for maps that have the default textures |
| 03:03.55 | donny_baker | next time you have issues.. come out here and ring me.. or better yet on ##norang |
| 03:04.13 | donny_baker | Guest82333: do you get any errors? |
| 03:04.32 | spldart | Lookout |
| 03:04.36 | spldart | I've been highlighted |
| 03:05.06 | Guest82333 | no |
| 03:05.14 | Guest82333 | she server rashes instantally on start |
| 03:05.17 | JeffM | Guest82333: remote textures can be used if they are hosted on images.bzflag.org as a URL in the map |
| 03:05.20 | Guest82333 | crashes* |
| 03:05.54 | Guest82333 | IDK if they are... how do I know? |
| 03:06.05 | JeffM | they would not cause a server crash |
| 03:06.06 | spldart | ? |
| 03:06.12 | spldart | Look at the URL? |
| 03:06.16 | JeffM | the server does not use the textures at all |
| 03:06.23 | Guest82333 | ok |
| 03:06.27 | JeffM | the URL is only important to the client |
| 03:06.32 | JeffM | how are you runing the server? |
| 03:06.38 | Guest82333 | as an exe |
| 03:06.41 | Guest82333 | on windows |
| 03:06.43 | JeffM | from the command line or clicking it? |
| 03:06.55 | spldart | Just an aside... can the client side still turn off that exclusive url stuff? and Dowload textures from where if you do? |

| 03:06.57 | Guest82333 | from a command line |
| 03:07.04 | HitMan08 | hey guys |
| 03:07.08 | HitMan08 | i got a question.. |
| 03:07.13 | spldart | ? |
| 03:07.24 | JeffM | what makes you say it crashes? does it throw a windows error? or just sit there and not let you type anything? |
| 03:07.28 | HitMan08 | okay well when i download sum bzflag maps from the sourceforge page.. |
| 03:07.35 | HitMan08 | and try to play them.it needs textures.. |
| 03:07.39 | HitMan08 | wer can i get those?? |
| 03:07.43 | Guest82333 | I am running the server from a command line: C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.10\bzfs.exe -conf bzfs.conf |
| 03:07.52 | JeffM | Guest82333: and then what happens |
| 03:08.07 | Guest82333 | The server just crashes... it appears for a second and then ends |
| 03:08.08 | JeffM | HitMan08: depends what textures they are. most remote textures are refrenced by UIRL |
| 03:08.16 | JeffM | Guest82333: what do you mean 'appears" |
| 03:08.29 | Guest82333 | flashes on the screen |
| 03:08.30 | HitMan08 | cuz yeah we cant get the maps we download to work. |
| 03:08.30 | donny_baker | URL* |
| 03:08.34 | JeffM | are you putting that command in the "run" secion of windows? or in the black command prompt? |
| 03:08.36 | Guest82333 | The black command prompt it runs in |
| 03:08.49 | JeffM | it should not flash anything, but run in that terminal |
| 03:08.51 | donny_baker | HitMan08: so everything is just white? |
| 03:08.54 | JeffM | what version of windows are you on? |
| 03:09.02 | HitMan08 | no no the server wont even start. |
| 03:09.03 | spldart | Not sure how much support you will get for that HitMan but yeah.. do a bit of research.. Are the maps you are trying to host, hosted currently? with properly liscensed textures? |
| 03:09.07 | HitMan08 | cuz the map needs textures. |
| 03:09.15 | Guest82333 | XP |
| 03:09.16 | JeffM | HitMan08: the server dosn't use textures |
| 03:09.20 | JeffM | are you 2 the same person? |
| 03:09.24 | Guest82333 | HitMan is with me just so you know |
| 03:09.25 | JeffM | if so, that's not funny |
| 03:09.30 | JeffM | then only one of you ask |
| 03:09.33 | HitMan08 | lol yeah sorry guys i came in kinda late.. |
| 03:09.38 | Guest82333 | He is a diff person... but with me lol |
| 03:09.42 | JeffM | yeah.. lol |
| 03:09.44 | donny_baker | HitMan08: no problem |
| 03:09.51 | spldart | you two working together to set upa aserver? |
| 03:09.59 | HitMan08 | ill go back to eating xD |
| 03:10.03 | JeffM | Guest82333: my concern is that you say it 'flashes' |
| 03:10.16 | Guest82333 | I am runnning it in the RUN secton of windows.... the command prompt for the server opens for a split second and then closes... |
| 03:10.17 | JeffM | and if you run it from the terminal, then it should not flash and open an new window |
| 03:10.25 | spldart | OH |
| 03:10.25 | JeffM | Guest82333: ok that is the problem |
| 03:10.26 | Guest82333 | This happens only when I change it to this new map |
| 03:10.31 | spldart | yeah |
| 03:10.34 | think_differentl | Guest82333: you need to type in cmd in the run portion |
| 03:10.34 | JeffM | type CMD in the run window |
| 03:10.39 | JeffM | then do your command line |
| 03:10.44 | JeffM | then you'll see the error |
| 03:10.50 | JeffM | CMD |
| 03:10.51 | JeffM | then enter |
| 03:10.52 | Guest82333 | okay.. I will try it in a prompt |
| 03:10.54 | JeffM | then command line |
| 03:11.11 | JeffM | yeah there is an error, but since you didn't start the prompt first, it closes automaticly |
| 03:11.11 | HitMan08 | okay i has a question... why cant i get a bzflag server to run on a mac or has anyone?? |
| 03:11.21 | JeffM | HitMan08: because you arn't doing it right |
| 03:11.23 | spldart | It will run fine on mac |
| 03:11.32 | HitMan08 | lol then dang im dumnb... |
| 03:11.37 | spldart | better than windows imho |
| 03:11.37 | HitMan08 | i cant seem to get it to run... |
| 03:11.44 | JeffM | did you use the terminal? |
| 03:11.48 | donny_baker | HitMan08: we usually all are when we start this stuff |
| 03:11.51 | JeffM | the server is not a clicky thing |
| 03:11.59 | HitMan08 | .. well see... |
| 03:12.07 | HitMan08 | i downloaded a server help pack |
| 03:12.13 | JeffM | from who? |
| 03:12.15 | HitMan08 | gave me 3 files and a read me.. |
| 03:12.22 | HitMan08 | uhh hang on not entirely sure..lol |
| 03:12.27 | spldart | That doesn't sound official |
| 03:12.30 | JeffM | you can stop with the lol |
| 03:12.45 | donny_baker | if you look on the wiki there is lots of help |
| 03:12.59 | JeffM | there are forum threads on how to start servers as well |
| 03:13.06 | HitMan08 | well ive tried.. ima lil slow since this is on mac.. im not used to it.. |
| 03:13.27 | JeffM | runing a server isn't for everyone, you realy should be confident in your computer use before you try |
| 03:13.33 | JeffM | you can get into a lot of trouble |
| 03:13.46 | HitMan08 | i trust my computer useage just not how to do it lol |
| 03:13.49 | spldart | Or possibly just a lot of headache |
| 03:13.56 | donny_baker | http://my.bzflag.org/w/Category:Server specifically the page on Creating a Server |
| 03:13.57 | spldart | No really |
| 03:13.59 | Guest82333 | It says it can't find the config file |
| 03:14.00 | spldart | He's serious |
| 03:14.11 | JeffM | Guest82333: it needs the full path to it |
| 03:14.13 | spldart | You need to know your pc at command line and even your network |
| 03:14.22 | spldart | since you may need to do some port forwarding and stuff |
| 03:14.42 | Guest82333 | hold on... let me use "cd" to go to the directory of the server |
| 03:14.49 | JeffM | that can also help |
| 03:15.43 | HitMan08 | okay well is the link you gave me for mac or windows? |
| 03:16.07 | JeffM | the server runs the same on all of them |
| 03:16.14 | JeffM | there is a "starting a public server" thread on the fourms |
| 03:16.20 | JeffM | it has the command line stuff for each OS on it |
| 03:16.30 | JeffM | after that, the rest is the same for all OSs |
| 03:17.01 | HitMan08 | okay thank you.. |
| 03:17.24 | HitMan08 | i hope i can get this running one last question how would a mac book 2.16 ghz 2 gb of ram do for a server on bzflag? |
| 03:17.44 | JeffM | the server uses little CPU |
| 03:17.52 | JeffM | the big thing would be your connection to the internet |
| 03:18.19 | HitMan08 | im on thru a router.. |
| 03:18.35 | JeffM | what is the speed of your connection |
| 03:18.37 | JeffM | upstream |
| 03:18.45 | HitMan08 | not sure how would i test it? |
| 03:18.59 | JeffM | boradbandreports.com |
| 03:19.08 | HitMan08 | kk ill teel ya ina sec.. |
| 03:19.08 | think_differentl | speedtest.net? |
| 03:19.13 | Guest82333 | got the error!! ERROR: World was not specified |
| 03:19.30 | JeffM | Guest82333: what is your -world line? |
| 03:19.35 | Guest82333 | Why? I am putting it in the comfig |
| 03:19.38 | Guest82333 | hold on.... |
| 03:19.45 | Guest82333 | -world "c:\worlds\ratlab.bzw" |
| 03:19.50 | JeffM | is that path valid? |
| 03:19.53 | Guest82333 | which is a valad file |
| 03:19.59 | Guest82333 | valid* yes |
| 03:20.01 | JeffM | the server could not open it |
| 03:20.07 | JeffM | or it's empty |
| 03:20.15 | Guest82333 | it also happens with a few other maps... not all |
| 03:20.24 | JeffM | those maps may have errors |
| 03:20.36 | JeffM | that's the generic "we tried to read it and it failed" error |
| 03:20.45 | Guest82333 | ok... I think it is a map for an older server version.... |
| 03:20.50 | JeffM | you can add -d -d -d -d |
| 03:20.54 | JeffM | to see why |
| 03:21.00 | JeffM | we read old maps just fine |
| 03:21.02 | spldart | Old maps should be fine |
| 03:21.04 | spldart | ... |
| 03:21.04 | spldart | sry |
| 03:21.07 | JeffM | or are suposed to |
| 03:21.17 | spldart | I haven't found one yet that didn't |
| 03:21.36 | spldart | But that is by no means definitive |
| 03:22.00 | JeffM | any old map that dosn't read, is techicnaly a bug |
| 03:22.05 | Guest82333 | ok... let me enable debug |
| 03:22.14 | JeffM | the only "old" issue we would have would be old maps defined in radians |
| 03:22.19 | JeffM | they would read in but look wrong |
| 03:23.46 | Guest82333 | there is a lot of stuff... how do I copy and paste from a cmd prompt |
| 03:28.05 | Paradox2 | That's strange... I was trying to download maps from here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=browse&group_id=3248&atid=423059&set=open&offset=0 |
| 03:28.10 | Paradox2 | and NONE of them work |
| 03:28.57 | JeffM | open one of them |
| 03:29.04 | Paradox2 | okay |
| 03:29.07 | Paradox2 | and.....? |
| 03:29.08 | JeffM | do they have extra characters? |
| 03:29.29 | JeffM | or odd newlines? |
| 03:29.58 | Paradox2 | like what? Dosn't seem to be any... seem to be okay |
| 03:30.06 | JeffM | odd |
| 03:30.13 | JeffM | what version of bzflag are you using? |
| 03:30.36 | Paradox2 | 2.0.10 |
| 03:30.44 | spldart | I just opened one randomly and it looks normal at first glance in notepad |
| 03:30.57 | JeffM | let me build a server and try |
| 03:31.37 | JeffM | if you take out the -world line does the server start? |
| 03:31.55 | Paradox2 | http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=m3cdfd5f8 |
| 03:32.00 | HitMan08 | my speed is.. |
| 03:32.02 | HitMan08 | 15.7m/1.4m |
| 03:32.05 | HitMan08 | is what it says. |
| 03:32.11 | Paradox2 | and yes the server starts if the -world line is not there or at one of the maps that worls |
| 03:32.24 | JeffM | HitMan08: 1.4 up is prety good |
| 03:32.34 | Paradox2 | I have 5 up... lol |
| 03:32.43 | HitMan08 | pretty as in ehh thats alright.. |
| 03:32.44 | JeffM | fios? |
| 03:32.47 | Paradox2 | yep |
| 03:32.50 | Paradox2 | 20 down |
| 03:33.00 | HitMan08 | he runs like idk how many servers guys..lol close to 12 |
| 03:33.02 | JeffM | down dosn't matter when hosting |
| 03:33.08 | think_differentl | wishes FiOS was in the DC area >_< |
| 03:33.08 | Paradox2 | I run TONS of servers... |
| 03:33.10 | Paradox2 | I know |
| 03:33.24 | Paradox2 | But I have a webserver and an IRC server... all kinds of stiff |
| 03:33.27 | Paradox2 | anyway: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=m3cdfd5f8 |
| 03:33.30 | JeffM | amazing |
| 03:33.32 | spldart | heh... I just got bit in the but.. In windows I only install clients so I can't just test real quick :-p |
| 03:33.46 | JeffM | yes I'm looking at your file |
| 03:33.56 | HitMan08 | so 1.4 will handle fine or will i have glitch issues?? |
| 03:34.13 | Paradox2 | Here's another better link: http://pastebin.com/m3cdfd5f8 |
| 03:34.19 | Paradox2 | It is one of the maps |
| 03:35.18 | JeffM | bloddy hell. I don't have a valid branch tree :( |
| 03:35.30 | Paradox2 | lol |
| 03:35.57 | JeffM | you sure do lol a lot |
| 03:35.59 | JeffM | how old are you? |
| 03:36.05 | Paradox2 | me? 15 |
| 03:36.12 | JeffM | makes sense |
| 03:36.28 | Paradox2 | ha... usually I don't "lol" much |
| 03:36.39 | JeffM | coulda fooled me :) |
| 03:37.21 | JeffM | starts fine for me with that map |
| 03:37.31 | Paradox2 | so do you see any errors in the map? http://pastebin.com/m3cdfd5f8 |
| 03:37.36 | JeffM | do you have any kind of security setup that would prevent the system from opening the file? |
| 03:37.44 | JeffM | what version of windows is it? |
| 03:37.48 | Paradox2 | hell no |
| 03:37.50 | Paradox2 | LOL! |
| 03:37.55 | Paradox2 | XP |
| 03:38.00 | HitMan08 | lol |
| 03:38.03 | Paradox2 | I shouldent matter... they are text files |
| 03:38.04 | JeffM | don't know what to tell you |
| 03:38.07 | JeffM | runs fine for me |
| 03:38.18 | JeffM | try just bzfs -world worlfile |
| 03:38.22 | JeffM | with no other options |
| 03:38.24 | Paradox2 | It happens with curtain maps... not just this one... about 30% of all maps work |
| 03:38.27 | JeffM | maybe it's something else in your config |
| 03:38.45 | JeffM | oh did you put CTF in your config? |
| 03:39.08 | Paradox2 | IDK so because the server works fine untill I change the map to a diff file "-world" |
| 03:39.11 | Paradox2 | CTF...... |
| 03:39.37 | Paradox2 | You mean the command "-c"? |
| 03:39.40 | JeffM | if the config calls for a CTF game, and the map has no bases |
| 03:39.41 | JeffM | yeah |
| 03:39.48 | Paradox2 | It is disabled (#-c) |
| 03:39.50 | JeffM | if you have no bases in the map ( aka a FFA map ) then it won't load |
| 03:40.03 | JeffM | you should match the map to the mode |
| 03:40.46 | JeffM | ratlab runs just fine for me with bzfs -world m3cdfd5f8.txt |
| 03:41.02 | Paradox2 | ok... do you have -c enabled in your conf? |
| 03:41.07 | Paradox2 | jeff |
| 03:41.08 | JeffM | I have no conf |
| 03:41.09 | Paradox2 | ? |
| 03:41.13 | JeffM | just that command line |

| 03:44.33 | JeffM | as I said, try it with just -world and the file |
| 03:44.33 | JeffM | no other command line options |
| 03:44.33 | Paradox2 | ok... hold on |
| 03:44.59 | Paradox2 | I got a small warning about "Acceleration level" has not been set but I think it is up |
| 03:45.12 | Paradox2 | Just curious... what is the default port? |
| 03:45.12 | JeffM | 5154 |
| 03:45.23 | JeffM | then something else in your config causes the problem |
| 03:46.31 | Paradox2 | maybe -c |
| 03:47.52 | JeffM | you said it was disabled |
| 03:48.01 | Paradox2 | I know |
| 03:48.14 | Paradox2 | I tried changing it back again and it didn't help..... |
| 03:48.18 | Paradox2 | here's my config to help |
| 03:48.19 | Paradox2 | http://pastebin.com/d651a881b |
| 03:48.36 | JeffM | probably should change your password now |
| 03:48.41 | JeffM | and man was that a bad show |
| 03:48.55 | JeffM | -cr |
| 03:49.00 | Paradox2 | I just did... |
| 03:49.02 | JeffM | that's one issue |
| 03:49.20 | Paradox2 | -cr? okay... let me disable it |
| 03:49.28 | blast007 | some maps might need you to specify what teams are allowed |
| 03:49.39 | JeffM | the map in question is a FFA map |
| 03:49.52 | blast007 | k |
| 03:50.08 | JeffM | -cr is the bigest conflict I see |
| 03:50.08 | Paradox2 | I changed -cr... didn't help |
| 03:50.15 | JeffM | as it says "do CTF on a random map" |
| 03:50.17 | Paradox2 | What about flags... |
| 03:50.22 | JeffM | well then turn stuff off and try it till it works |
| 03:50.23 | blast007 | by "changed" you mean "removed" ? |
| 03:50.40 | Paradox2 | No.. I put # in front of it |
| 03:50.49 | blast007 | -a <50> <50> |
| 03:50.51 | blast007 | that's not valid |
| 03:50.54 | blast007 | take out the < and > |
| 03:51.07 | JeffM | yeah all the < > is invalid |
| 03:51.10 | blast007 | take out -t, that's only for random maps |
| 03:51.19 | blast007 | same with -density |
| 03:51.34 | JeffM | tho those should not change anything |
| 03:51.42 | Paradox2 | ok.... this never made any problem with other maps... but okay |
| 03:51.45 | *** join/#bzchat Abominable (n=chatzill@user-0ce2hv1.cable.mindspring.com) |
| 03:51.48 | blast007 | so it is a CTF map? I see a -c there too |
| 03:51.48 | JeffM | I'll bet the <> screwed up world |
| 03:51.56 | JeffM | as world is the NEXT thing |
| 03:52.07 | JeffM | so it probalby read -world as the paramater or something |
| 03:52.07 | blast007 | that pastebin has -c and -cr |
| 03:52.14 | JeffM | yeah get rid of all those |
| 03:52.15 | Paradox2 | no I don't think so because even with all the stuff in that you guys are telling em to remobe... it still worked with other maps |
| 03:52.16 | blast007 | if it's FFA, take out both of those |
| 03:52.22 | Paradox2 | ok |
| 03:52.55 | Paradox2 | IT WORKED!!! |
| 03:53.02 | Paradox2 | CR and C removed |
| 03:53.05 | Paradox2 | WORKES |
| 03:53.28 | JeffM | well you did say -c was disabled when it wasn't |
| 03:53.29 | JeffM | ;) |
| 03:53.39 | Paradox2 | It was... but not at the same time as cr |
| 03:53.49 | JeffM | yeah no CTF stuff for FFA maps |
| 03:53.56 | Paradox2 | thanks... but there is another problem I have been having for a LONG time.... |
| 03:54.02 | Paradox2 | Look in the flag section of that config |
| 03:54.19 | blast007 | it would have said "Error: Base not defined for ___ team" |
| 03:55.22 | Paradox2 | When I try and put +g_good (3) to get more flags.... |
| 03:55.38 | JeffM | you know that gives you 3 of EVERY good flag right? |
| 03:55.41 | JeffM | not just 3 more good flags |
| 03:55.44 | blast007 | +f good{3} you mean? |
| 03:55.53 | Paradox2 | I want to have more flags... when ever I do the server has this problem where people join and when they press "i" to start nothing happens |
| 03:55.58 | Paradox2 | yes |
| 03:56.02 | Paradox2 | f good* |
| 03:56.03 | JeffM | yeah that's too many flags |
| 03:56.04 | blast007 | you hosting on Windows? |
| 03:56.09 | spldart | YEAH |
| 03:56.11 | JeffM | there is a buffer limit that is hit |
| 03:56.11 | spldart | ooops |
| 03:56.14 | JeffM | don't do that many flags |
| 03:56.21 | JeffM | at least not in 2.0.x |
| 03:56.27 | blast007 | that would work on linux (and probably OSX), but craps out with Windows |
| 03:56.37 | blast007 | that's why windows isn't a recommended hosting platform ;) |
| 03:56.51 | Paradox2 | +f good{3} with 1 bad is too much? that's not THAT many flags |
| 03:56.53 | JeffM | well linux just has a higher limit |
| 03:56.55 | blast007 | better than it used to be, but still not perfect |
| 03:57.06 | Paradox2 | Windows is good for everything else I host, just not bzflags |
| 03:57.15 | JeffM | it's a bug in the code |
| 03:57.24 | JeffM | it sends out a message that's too big |
| 03:57.27 | Paradox2 | That's pretty stupid... you'd think they could fix that |
| 03:57.31 | JeffM | we did |
| 03:57.32 | JeffM | in 3.0 |
| 03:57.41 | Paradox2 | 3? |
| 03:57.42 | spldart | Shoot for 50 flags for now.. if you want alot.. and adjust from there once your running |
| 03:57.44 | JeffM | can't fix it in 2.0.x as it breaks the network protocoll |
| 03:57.46 | spldart | I prefer less |
| 03:57.47 | Paradox2 | how do I download that? haha |
| 03:57.52 | JeffM | it's not compatable |
| 03:57.57 | JeffM | and you'd have to compile it |
| 03:57.58 | Paradox2 | I want more... at least for my server |
| 03:58.01 | Paradox2 | and my friends do |
| 03:58.08 | Paradox2 | oh |
| 03:58.10 | spldart | Well.. get it running good first |
| 03:58.13 | spldart | then bump it up |
| 03:58.13 | JeffM | it is not compatable with 2.0.x clients |
| 03:58.15 | Paradox2 | only for linux or somthing |
| 03:58.19 | JeffM | no |
| 03:58.19 | Paradox2 | oh |
| 03:58.22 | JeffM | it's not released |
| 03:58.26 | JeffM | it's in development |
| 03:58.27 | Paradox2 | My friends wouldent mind upgrading |
| 03:58.30 | JeffM | it is the NEXT version |
| 03:58.35 | JeffM | not even in beta |
| 03:58.44 | Paradox2 | alright... well I'll jsut wait for that to come out |
| 03:58.46 | JeffM | your friends could not play on other servers with it |
| 03:58.55 | spldart | It will be a while :squijnt: |
| 03:59.07 | Paradox2 | Like a few years maybe? |
| 03:59.14 | JeffM | hopefully not |
| 03:59.25 | spldart | less than a few years... more than a few months...best guess.... |
| 03:59.25 | spldart | hehe |
| 04:01.09 | Paradox2 | cool |
| 04:01.17 | Paradox2 | thanks for all the help |
| 04:01.30 | blast007 | if you want to test the development version, you're free to do so |
| 04:01.32 | blast007 | it's in SVN |
| 04:01.37 | blast007 | you'd have to build it from source |
| 04:01.45 | JeffM | you'll need a compiler tho |
| 04:01.52 | Paradox2 | should -cr ALWAYS BE DISABLES as long as I am using -world |
| 04:01.56 | blast007 | yes |
| 04:01.57 | Paradox2 | I have a few compiliers |
| 04:02.02 | Paradox2 | I might later |
| 04:02.04 | blast007 | as should the other options that deal with random maps |
| 04:02.04 | JeffM | visual C++? |
| 04:02.11 | spldart | VC8 for windows |
| 04:02.13 | Paradox2 | yes |
| 04:02.21 | JeffM | then yeah you can build it |
| 04:02.39 | spldart | recommended anywho hehe |
| 04:02.43 | blast007 | long as it *is* version 8 |
| 04:02.52 | JeffM | 9 "should" work now |
| 04:02.58 | JeffM | 7.1 has been desuported |
| 04:02.59 | blast007 | yeah |
| 04:02.59 | spldart | kewlio |
| 04:03.10 | JeffM | I did 9 at work and I belive it worked |
| 04:03.42 | spldart | So 'official' 9 support for trunk isn't quite law yet? |
| 04:04.00 | spldart | .. but getting close |
| 04:04.03 | JeffM | I don't plan on making proejcts for it, but before we release I'll make sure the upgrade path works |
| 04:04.13 | spldart | oki doki |
| 04:11.05 | JeffM | I may add proejcts for it if we swap at work to 9 |
| 04:21.28 | temp_dist | JeffM: did you see that Alice uploaded a new version of the translator patch? |
| 04:21.40 | JeffM | yes |
| 04:21.46 | temp_dist | mmk |
| 04:23.14 | JeffM | I have not had chance to review it yet |
| 04:23.37 | JeffM | we will probably have to change a few things to do it "right" |

| 17:47.24 | HitMan08 | hey guys |
| 17:50.10 | HitMan08|away | rawr.. okay question.. how many ppl here are useing a mac??? |
| 17:50.39 | blast007 | what question do you have regarding that? |
| 17:51.12 | HitMan08|away | how many of the mac users are running a server on bzflags.. im not a mac hater i own 4 two imacs a mac mini and amac book..lol im like the mac poster boy.. |
| 17:51.26 | blast007 | 4 two? |
| 17:51.34 | blast007 | oh, "4, two" |
| 17:51.52 | HitMan08|away | lol i was saying i own 4 didnt use correct grammar there i own two imacs a mac mini and a mac book = 4 |
| 17:51.57 | HitMan08|away | yeah sorry.missed a key.. |
| 17:52.05 | blast007 | punctuation is good :) |
| 17:52.19 | HitMan08|away | very i know.. god now i feel like im back in 4th grade ..lol |
| 17:52.58 | HitMan08|away | sooo anyone useing macs? |
| 17:52.58 | blast007 | anyway, OSX can run a server just as well as a linux machine |
| 17:53.00 | Winny | HitMan08|away: most of the popular servers are run on servers in datacenters |
| 17:53.07 | JeffM | well |
| 17:53.09 | Winny | but you can run a server on any OS really |
| 17:53.11 | JeffM | it can run a server |
| 17:53.18 | JeffM | I'd not say as "Well" as a linux server |
| 17:53.24 | blast007 | why not as well? |
| 17:53.26 | JeffM | but since we arn't heavaly threaded it will be similar |
| 17:53.32 | JeffM | kernel differences |
| 17:53.37 | blast007 | meh.. |
| 17:53.39 | JeffM | yeah |
| 17:53.43 | JeffM | for bzfs it will be fine |
| 17:53.47 | JeffM | for apache... not so much ;) |
| 17:53.51 | HitMan08|away | well you see ive had several issue makeing a server on any game on a mac.. |
| 17:53.54 | blast007 | if I can run on a Pentium 133, I think it'll be fine on a faster CPU'ed mac :P |
| 17:54.00 | HitMan08|away | like noone has one.. its like a sin or sumthing. |
| 17:54.17 | JeffM | HitMan08|away, most mac users are players not hosters |
| 17:54.24 | HitMan08|away | isnt the pent 133 a mac compatiable clone?? |
| 17:54.31 | blast007 | what? |
| 17:54.31 | Winny | and if they do host it's on a different machine |
| 17:54.36 | JeffM | most people that host use remote servers, and for that, linux is a lot easier to manage |
| 17:54.49 | JeffM | OSX is a not really set up well for command line remote management |
| 17:54.52 | HitMan08|away | the pentium 133 computers most use them with a max osx dick called leo for all. |
| 17:54.58 | blast007 | iirc, tadd used to host on a mac mini (in a data center?) |
| 17:55.01 | HitMan08|away | its a hacked version of max osx 10.5 |
| 17:55.02 | blast007 | disk* |
| 17:55.10 | HitMan08|away | yeah.. haha blame cat.. |
| 17:55.11 | blast007 | uh, no |
| 17:55.11 | Winny | HitMan08|away: huh? |
| 17:55.13 | JeffM | please do not talk about software thieft here. |
| 17:55.15 | HitMan08|away | she hit my keyboard. |
| 17:55.28 | blast007 | how would a computer from 1995 run OSX 10.5? |
| 17:55.31 | JeffM | HitMan08|away, if you can not take the time to comunicate clearly, please don.t |
| 17:55.42 | blast007 | I couldn't even launch the installer before I'd run out of RAM |
| 17:55.44 | JeffM | a pentium 1 does not have the instruction set for OSX |
| 17:55.47 | blast007 | that too |
| 17:55.51 | JeffM | it needs SSE3 IIRC |
| 17:55.54 | HitMan08|away | oh no im agasint it.. i almost put my older brother in jail. i was gonna report him he ran several computers with that on it. |
| 17:56.03 | JeffM | riiiggght |
| 17:56.04 | blast007 | HitMan08|away: yeah.. that's nice |
| 17:56.06 | JeffM | you are what? 12? |
| 17:56.27 | JeffM | so what is your actual quesion? just if people host on a mac? |
| 17:56.34 | HitMan08|away | yeah. |
| 17:56.38 | JeffM | it is rare |
| 17:56.41 | blast007 | yes, they do |
| 17:56.44 | JeffM | but yeah they do |
| 17:56.59 | JeffM | most do there own build and run it like a linux setup |
| 17:57.04 | JeffM | not using the .app, etc.. |
| 17:58.17 | Winny | people don't run the server on their desktop machine usually, either |
| 17:59.05 | Winny | most of the time it's a remote Linux install that they SSH into... as mentioned before I believe tadd hosted on OS X, but not sure if he still does. |
| 17:59.19 | Winny | recall him going to debian or something |
| 17:59.44 | HitMan08|away | well im not looking to become one of those servers thats just on none stop im just looking to make one so i can have the other guys i play with on there on our own server. |
| 18:01.42 | JeffM | there is no techniacal reason why you should not be able to run the server on OSX |
| 18:01.53 | JeffM | it's just that MOST servers don't |
| 18:01.57 | JeffM | most servers are linux |
| 18:02.07 | HitMan08|away | its just the knowledge of running servers that i would need. |
| 18:02.20 | JeffM | the only thing that is OS specific is where the bzfs exe is |
| 18:02.23 | JeffM | that's it |
| 18:02.33 | JeffM | after that it's all the same on any OS |
| 18:02.40 | JeffM | configs and command lines |
| 18:03.04 | JeffM | you could even copy your bzfs out of the .app to make it easier to use |
| 18:03.47 | HitMan08|away | so wait.. all i need is a config.. and the bzfs ? |
| 18:03.56 | Winny | and a map file |
| 18:04.02 | Winny | assuming you don't want a random map |
| 18:04.27 | JeffM | techincaly you don't even need the config |
| 18:04.33 | HitMan08|away | i dont..?? |
| 18:04.38 | JeffM | the config file is just a way to put all the command lines into a file |
| 18:04.40 | JeffM | for ease of use |
| 18:04.52 | JeffM | you could put all the config options on the command line and it work the same way |
| 18:05.01 | JeffM | you just have to type them every time you start the server |
| 18:05.08 | JeffM | that is why the config is used by most people |
| 18:05.20 | JeffM | you can start a server by simply running bzfs |
| 18:05.28 | JeffM | with no paramaters |
| 18:05.40 | Winny | assuming your firewall is open & ports are forwarded correctly |
| 18:05.46 | JeffM | Winny, not even |
| 18:05.50 | JeffM | the server will still run |
| 18:05.52 | JeffM | it'd just be local |
| 18:05.53 | HitMan08|away | i know how to forward the ports correctly i do belive. |
| 18:05.57 | Winny | but no one will be able to use it ;) |
| 18:06.06 | JeffM | Winny, not true, his lan could use it |
| 18:06.18 | JeffM | a publicly listed server does need a few more things |
| 18:06.24 | JeffM | such as the routing as Winny says |
| 18:06.29 | JeffM | and -public "some name" |
| 18:06.33 | JeffM | but that's it |
| 18:06.43 | JeffM | everything after that is customisation |
| 18:06.47 | HitMan08|away | but i dont understand this.. i dont have a config theres no config file anywer. and as for the bzfs i could just drag and drop to the desktop not in any file or folder.. ? |
| 18:06.50 | *** join/#bzchat Wits (n=Warinthe@212.119.33.65.cfl.res.rr.com) |
| 18:06.57 | JeffM | HitMan08|away, sure |
| 18:07.02 | JeffM | the server dosn't care where it is |
| 18:07.14 | JeffM | it does not use any external files by default |
| 18:07.21 | JeffM | it only uses them if you tell it to via the command line |
| 18:07.32 | JeffM | such as with the command line option -conf |
| 18:07.38 | JeffM | that says "load this config file" |
| 18:07.40 | HitMan08|away | but i want it public.. the guys i play with are well close to about 400 miles there old college friends of mine. |
| 18:07.50 | JeffM | then you need to use -public |
| 18:08.03 | JeffM | and give it a name |
| 18:08.04 | HitMan08|away | okay but i srtill dont have a config file.. |
| 18:08.09 | JeffM | you don't need one |
| 18:08.16 | JeffM | bzfs -public "my new server" |
| 18:08.25 | JeffM | put that in th terminal and it'll run a public server |
| 18:08.29 | HitMan08|away | so ide type this in terminal? |
| 18:08.42 | Winny | do you just want a specific map hosted? |
| 18:08.49 | JeffM | Winny, let him start simple |
| 18:08.51 | Winny | or are you trying to make a server where only your friends can play? |
| 18:08.54 | HitMan08|away | let me switch to my macbook its next to me ill try to run this at the same time as talking to you. |
| 18:09.07 | Winny | JeffM: thinking someone else could host it on a dedicated line |
| 18:09.16 | JeffM | probably |
| 18:09.19 | JeffM | but then how will he learn? |
| 18:10.07 | HitMan08|away | okay okay sooo here we are im gonna double click bzfs. |
| 18:10.15 | Winny | no |
| 18:10.19 | Winny | you don't run it that way |
| 18:10.20 | JeffM | no |
| 18:10.24 | JeffM | there is no clicking |
| 18:10.24 | HitMan08|away | o0oo how? |
| 18:10.27 | JeffM | you use the terminal |
| 18:10.29 | JeffM | and CD to the dir |
| 18:10.34 | Winny | you need to open up the terminal, and drag bzfs into it |
| 18:10.39 | JeffM | bzfs is not an interactive program |
| 18:10.42 | Winny | that'll put the path in there |
| 18:10.46 | HitMan08|away | ah no wonder it wouldnt work. |
| 18:11.05 | JeffM | this is why I kept telling you last night that you need to learn how to use your comptuer more |
| 18:11.14 | JeffM | bzfs is a command line application |
| 18:11.17 | HitMan08|away | so.. now i need to just press enteror what? |
| 18:11.18 | JeffM | not a graphical one |
| 18:11.37 | JeffM | do you have the terminal application running? |
| 18:11.41 | HitMan08|away | yes. |
| 18:11.45 | HitMan08|away | and i placed it in it. |
| 18:11.58 | JeffM | and it put a path in the command line? |
| 18:12.03 | HitMan08|away | yes |
| 18:12.13 | JeffM | Winny, does that CD to the dir? or just put the path on the command line?' |
| 18:12.21 | Winny | just puts the path |
| 18:12.39 | HitMan08|away | so what now? |
| 18:12.53 | JeffM | HitMan08|away, put -public "my silly server" after bzfs and hit enter |

| 18:19.23 | me1 | oh |
| 18:19.27 | me1 | it was a small netsplit |
| 18:19.31 | HitMan08 | ah. |
| 18:19.37 | JeffM | a split of 1, I doubt it |
| 18:19.48 | HitMan08 | well again i have a error on my terminal. |
| 18:19.48 | JeffM | you probabably just disconected |
| 18:19.57 | me1 | JeffM, look at other channels, and this (kubrick.freenode.net irc.freenode.net) |
| 18:19.57 | JeffM | what does the error EXACTLY say? |
| 18:20.16 | JeffM | me1, yeah if he poofed with out a clean cut, his server would have killed him |
| 18:20.16 | HitMan08 | ERROR: unable to start server maybe one is already running? |
| 18:20.25 | JeffM | HitMan08, then one is running |
| 18:20.32 | HitMan08 | lol i dont know how... |
| 18:20.42 | JeffM | we were unable to open the default port |
| 18:20.45 | HitMan08 | how would i kill it.. |
| 18:20.50 | JeffM | that is usualy cus something was using it |
| 18:20.58 | JeffM | probably that one you double clicked |
| 18:21.06 | JeffM | how many terminal windows do you have open? |
| 18:21.21 | HitMan08 | 1. as far as i can see |
| 18:21.23 | me1 | HitMan08, to kill it open the task manager, go to "processes" and end bzfs.exe |
| 18:21.39 | JeffM | me1, on OSX.. that's impresive |
| 18:21.39 | HitMan08 | exe..lol thats windows. |
| 18:21.42 | me1 | :| |
| 18:21.45 | me1 | nbm |
| 18:21.47 | me1 | nvm* |
| 18:21.56 | me1 | does osx have killall? |
| 18:22.00 | HitMan08 | that would be very ide give em props if i saw exe running in my activity monitore. |
| 18:22.00 | JeffM | probably |
| 18:22.05 | JeffM | killall -9 bzfs |
| 18:22.25 | HitMan08 | so wait type that in terminal? |
| 18:22.28 | me1 | yep |

| 18:25.14 | HitMan08 | okay so now try it again? |
| 18:25.29 | JeffM | then run the server again with the same command line |

| 18:32.10 | HitMan08 | look for a ip that starts with 192. and ends with 105.. and theres no words. |
| 18:32.16 | HitMan08 | see if you can join it. |
| 18:33.04 | Winny | that is your local IP. |
| 18:33.11 | HitMan08 | yup has to be.. |
| 18:33.18 | Winny | 192.x.x.x is for local networks only |
| 18:33.37 | HitMan08 | need port forwarding?? |
| 18:33.42 | Winny | indeed |
| 18:33.58 | HitMan08 | okay.. can i do the port forwarding on any computer in the house or the cmputer its on? |
| 18:34.15 | Winny | you need to log into your router and to it from there |
| 18:34.32 | HitMan08 | yes i know but do i do this from the comouter the server is running on or what? |
| 18:34.48 | Winny | it doesn't matter which computer you forward the ports from. |
| 18:34.57 | Winny | they just need to be forwarded to the correct local IP |
