00:59.19Abominablelol_udied: it has cheats
00:59.26comeandgetitnumeros cheaters you might not be aware of
00:59.48comeandgetittheres cheat cleitns with source codes
00:59.59comeandgetitannouncements
01:00.03spldartPatches
01:00.10Winnyok? source is freely available and modifiyable
01:00.22comeandgetityes
01:00.24WinnyI could go make a cheat client in 10 minutes if I really wanted to, but hey! I don't.
01:00.40comeandgetiti didnt make them, other peeps did
01:00.49Abominableand you used them
01:00.50comeandgetiti used em, not no more
01:00.56Abominableand you where not sorry when you used them
01:00.59comeandgetitim done with that
01:01.33comeandgetitdkmissle gave me the client, he convinced me 2 cheat
01:01.49spldartYour in permaban territory. But likely in half a year or maybe more you could play again freely if you don't raise any flags.
01:01.57AbominableOh come on, how can he "convince" you to use a cheat client?
01:02.30comeandgetiti was playing with him and i said i sucked, he sayd he could make me rock
01:02.33WinnyYou made the choice to be a dick, people now dislike you for it. Live with your choices. Seriously.
01:02.40AAA_awrightcomeandgetit: If you are, then you would accept the consequences of what you did, take it, and don't do it again
01:02.52Winnyif you kill someone you can't do "omg I'll never kill anyone ever again I promise double dog promise!"
01:03.32comeandgetitwhen will this consequences be over?
01:03.48comeandgetitAll I want is just a freshstart
01:03.59Abominable<spldart>Your in permaban territory. But likely in half a year or maybe more you could play again freely if you don't raise any flags.
01:04.16lol_udiedanyway, Im gonna let comeandgetit on my maps and CoAM maps. And ill watch him more, But I asure you hes clean
01:04.51AAA_awrightspldart: A tad bit excessive... lol_udied: Then that is between you and the players and the server
01:05.09lol_udiedSo you even wont let him go on the forums?
01:05.34comeandgetiti have undergone the concequences
01:05.42Think_Differentlnobody "forces" you to do anything on the internet
01:05.48comeandgetitEX: banned from 50+ servers
01:05.50Think_Differentlyou can make the choice.
01:06.03AbominableThink_Differentl, I will spam you if you don't use this client!
01:06.06comeandgetiti made the wrong one, i am now making th right one
01:06.30Think_DifferentlAbominable, then i'll just filter it.
01:06.41lol_udiedhehe
01:06.41Abominablecomeandgetit and now you will wait half a year before you can play again, get over it, and go on with your life, seriously.
01:06.48spldartThe inet is a place that offers unprecedented freedoms.. and unprecedented chances of getting in trouble. Please own your actions and their consequences. There are other games online BTW...
01:06.58Abominablethink_differentl no no no, i haz uber leet hax!
01:07.22AAA_awrightspldart: Was this a repeat violation or what?
01:07.27comeandgetitBZF is like my fav game EVER
01:07.37Think_Differentlthere are lots of games to play
01:07.44Abominableso you cheated on your favorite game, good idea!
01:08.09comeandgetiti didnt know id feel this way about it
01:08.17comeandgetitbut i do
01:08.40comeandgetitYou guys dont really understand. ALL im trying to do is just get a second chance to prove that I am not a cheater no more. I will ban cheaters even if they were my best friend ever.
01:09.20Abominablecomeandgetit and as spldart said, you're banned for ~half a year, just wait it off
01:09.35spldartNow now..
01:09.38spldartI didn't say that
01:09.41lol_udiedhow do u know that he is banned for half a year abom
01:09.49comeandgetiti am super sorry, i have undergone the concequences
01:09.50Abominable<spldart>Your in permaban territory. But likely in half a year or maybe more you could play again freely if you don't raise any flags.
01:10.00Abominablelikely, my mistake
01:10.05AAA_awrightMine too
01:10.23spldartIn the grand scheme.. After obvious cheating it takes a while for trust to build and bans to fall.
01:10.55donny_bakerspldart is a wise man.. err boy.. uhm.. well you get the idea
01:10.57spldartI pulled a number for the timeframe I would assume knowing my own servers and servers I've seen in operation for a known and confirmed cheater.
01:11.54Think_Differentlif indeed the duration is 6 months, it will pass quickly
01:12.05Think_Differentlafter about the first 3 days, you'll move on
01:12.52spldartI don't know any exact figures for his specific bans. But I do know it takes a while for something this big, and now morso this well known, to pass and have people trust the player in question.
01:13.03comeandgetithow can I convince you people to tell you that I AM NOT A CHEATER NO MORE?!?!?!
01:13.08spldartIt could be 2 or 3 months... it could be more.. That's just the way things go.
01:13.22donny_bakerwait your time out.. bans are there for a reason
01:13.25spldartTake a break from the game
01:13.37spldartthen play under a different name on the servers you can get on
01:13.45spldartThen eventually I imagine you can get on the rest.
01:13.49spldartpretty simple
01:13.52spldartTime

01:14.17Think_Differentlin life, you have to take responsibilty for your actions. it is exactly the same on the internet/games/whatever
01:14.21comeandgetiti will tell you guys all about the site
01:16.21Winny"the site" is pretty worthless, cheating is just modifying code. Anyone with some C++ experience and logic about how code works can do it
01:16.28Winnynothing magical about it
01:16.55Think_Differentlthink about it, if you get fired from a job because you don't do your work and commiting fraud, do you expect the company to hire you just because you say "i'm sorry i won't do it again"?
01:17.18comeandgetithere are some players that cheat.  comeandgetit
01:17.18spldartBTW. I apologize if the way I stated anything lead to a misunderstanding... I'm giving examples in time frame and drawing on my experience with my own and other servers and how they deal with known cheaters.

02:12.25JeffM2501it has not been shown if lol_u_died was "framed" or not
02:13.31JeffM2501wow, see what I get for actualualy working :/
02:14.46L4m3rwhoa, this is new. #bzflag-chat ?
02:14.58JeffM2501hmmyeah
02:15.05JeffM2501forwared from the old one
02:15.06L4m3rdidn't even notice the channel forwarding
02:15.12JeffM2501as it should be :)
02:15.14me1JeffM2501, can I have a bzflag/player cloak, if it isn't too much trouble?
02:15.21JeffM2501me1, not yet
02:15.30JeffM2501I need to work out a system for them with the other admins
02:15.30me1okay
02:15.35JeffM2501I want to keep them consistnet
02:15.45JeffM2501like bzflag/player/callsign/user
02:15.55JeffM2501and bzflag/serverowner/calsign/user
02:16.00JeffM2501so we can know who does what
02:16.08L4m3rprobably a dev one too
02:16.10JeffM2501since we will also do bzflag/developer/callsign/ user
02:16.13JeffM2501yes
02:16.24me1Sounds cool!
02:21.13AHAJeffM2501, i think a simple bzflag/developer/callsign and bzflag/player/callsign would sufice
02:21.22AHAand maybe one for those who donate to the project
02:21.36JeffM2501AHA perhaps
02:21.47JeffM2501but if it dosn't say "player" it could be confusing
02:21.47AHAor those who contribute in a significate way (like winny, saturos, etc)
02:22.01AAA_awrightHow about a simple /sponsor/ and /callsign/
02:22.11JeffM2501perhaps
02:22.20JeffM2501I am writing up a wiki page now to see what the options are
02:22.30JeffM2501I just want to make sure we have it consistent before we add a bunch
02:22.35L4m3rthe relevant people will make the call
02:22.55L4m3rI don't think the details of the convention matter as much as the fact that there is one
02:23.05AAA_awrightPreferably something you can grant based on solid evidence, e.g. development history, donations, etc.
02:23.21JeffM2501hence why I write it up
02:23.28AAA_awrightA good idea
02:23.29JeffM2501donations don't matter
02:23.35JeffM2501we don't really do them
02:23.45JeffM2501and the project itself nevetr sees any that go thru SF
02:24.10L4m3rI'd say most donations to the project are not monetary
02:24.15JeffM2501indeed
02:24.15AAA_awrightIn that case donations don't matter
02:24.25JeffM2501the cloaks can only be given out by 2 people right now
02:24.32JeffM2501soon to be 3
02:24.40JeffM2501and one won't be on much ;)
02:26.54AAA_awrightI can see this all getting quickly political.
02:28.02JeffM2501noone has a right to a cloak
02:28.09JeffM2501they are like ranks
02:28.13Winny@bzflag/obama/? :P
02:29.34L4m3rno one NEEDS a bzflag cloak
02:29.39AAA_awright@bzflag/fascist/supporter/
02:29.44L4m3rso if there's too much whining they just won't do it
02:29.44AAA_awrightDitto L4m3r
02:30.27AAA_awright(jk about the fascism for you Obamabots ;)

06:04.37JeffM2501sure, with what?
06:05.03bz18how to I make a plugin like on lamer servers to put 2 flags together
06:05.40bz18can I put V and SR together?
06:05.51JeffM2501we don't support combo flags
06:06.01bz18but it is doen on lamer server
06:06.07JeffM2501it's wierd
06:06.17JeffM2501he's basicly doing some wierd stuff
06:06.26JeffM2501replacing shot types, etc..
06:06.35bz18I don't beleive that
06:06.47bz18it must be possbiel
06:06.49Flashnotes the irony
06:07.30JeffM2501fine don't belive me
06:07.42JeffM2501even if I did write the API
06:07.48bz18what about makeing a countdown that counts down from 30 then at 0 it sets _tankSpeed 10 0.0001?
06:07.57JeffM2501sure write it up
06:08.01bz18os that easy to make?
06:08.03JeffM2501it's all just C++
06:08.39temp_distthe existing bzcron plugin can do /set
06:08.42JeffM2501easy is a loaded question how much C++ do you know?
06:08.46*** join/#bzflag-chat BulletCatcher (n=bc@unaffiliated/bulletcatcher)
06:09.01bz18just a little bit
06:09.15bz18I just look at the wiki functions then add it
06:09.31JeffM2501well you'd have to do some thought and programing, but all the info is there
06:09.42JeffM2501you have a timer, and can set variables.
06:10.02bz18I don't have a timer though
06:10.11JeffM2501sure you do bz_getCurrentTime
06:10.14JeffM2501returns a double
06:10.20JeffM2501represents seconds
06:10.23JeffM2501save it at the start
06:10.32JeffM2501then in the tick subtract it form the current
06:10.38JeffM2501if it's been long enough do what you need.
06:10.42JeffM2501basic math

07:22.38bz18someone help me
07:22.41bz18I need help
07:22.54bz18my plugin won't compile :(
07:23.14Flashcompilation errors are easy; if you can't fix them you are probably over your head ;-)
07:24.17bz18no but I've tried everything
07:24.21bz18and jeffm left
07:24.35bz18he was helping me but now he's gone :'(
07:24.42Flashchannels JeffM
07:24.51Flashyou haven't tried EVERYTHING
07:24.57Flashor it would be working
07:25.02bz18rror C2065: 'joininmessage' : undeclared identifier
07:25.20Flashsearch your code for joininmessage
07:25.23bz18const char * joiningmessage; sprintf(joininmessage, "Total Players Updated To: %f", totalPlayers);
07:25.29Flashsee the typo?
07:25.31bz18I am trying to send a message to all the users
07:25.45bz18ohhh I see it
07:25.48Flashbut that will crash, so it really doesn't matter much
07:26.16bz18what am I doing wrong?
07:26.24bz18I got it right out of the client source
07:26.24Flashdo you know what a pointer is?
07:26.41bz18yes
07:26.49Flashwhat is is?
07:26.51Flashit?
07:27.01bz18when you are pointing something out
07:27.15Flashnot quite; it is pointing TO something
07:27.22bz18hmm
07:27.30FlashI mean in C++ code, of course
07:27.42bz18now I have this!!!
07:27.45bz18error C2078: too many initializers
07:27.52bz18I have almost lost hope :(
07:28.14Flashfirst, you need to learn some basic programming skills; bzflag is NOT the place to learn that
07:28.17bz18it says the error is here:
07:28.19bz18sprintf(joiningmessage, "Total Players Updated To: %f", totalPlayers);
07:28.34Flashis there anything else on that line?
07:28.44bz18what do you mean?
07:29.01FlashI mean, are there any more characters on the line besides the ones you pasted here?
07:29.19bz18no only what i pasted
07:29.30Flashwhat is the line before?
07:29.33bz18but totalPlayers is int is that a prblem?
07:29.47Flashyes, but the compiler may not catch that
07:29.56bz18so what do I do?
07:30.06bz18I can't change totalPlayers from int
07:30.07Flashwhat is the previous line?
07:30.22bz18previous line is:
07:30.24bz18const char * joiningmessage;
07:30.47bz18should i be using const char * joiningmessage[100];
07:30.56bz18?
07:31.06Flashno, just char joiningmessage[100];
07:31.19Flashyou really need to understand about pointers
07:31.29bz18but bz_sendTextMessage (int from, int to, const char* message);  used const chat*
07:31.32Flashalso what an initializer is (since you have an error about that)
07:31.54Flashright; it's late and I'm sleep deprived, so I can't teach you C++ tonight
07:32.08blast007I bet google can though
07:32.11bz18but it is late here too
07:32.19bz18and google I hate google
07:32.19Flashyou need to learn about pointers, const, and initialization
07:32.26bz18I don't ever want to use google again
07:32.32blast007bz18: well what search engine do you prefer?
07:32.46bz18none I perfer JeffM
07:32.54bz18:D
07:32.57blast007yeah, that's not a very good answer
07:33.06bz18aww :(
07:33.14blast007if you aren't going to do any work on your own, it really doesn't motivate us to help you at all
07:33.33blast007we aren't here to hand feed you information that you can easily find on your own
07:33.34bz18but I am doing work on my own
07:33.40blast007not really
07:33.46Flashget a book; take a class; learn the basics
07:33.48bz18I made almost my whole plugin on my own
07:33.58BulletCatcherhttp://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ has a nice introduction to C++
07:33.58bz18but now I have errors
07:34.00blast007you're copying code from another location and trying to make it work by beating it with a hammer
07:34.15bz18thats what JeffM said to do
07:34.41blast007he said to beat it with a hammer?
07:35.03Flash00:08 <@JeffM2501> easy is a loaded question how much C++ do you know?
07:35.10Flash00:09 <@JeffM2501> well you'd have to do some thought and programing, but all the info is there
07:35.37bz18I was talking to him
07:35.48bz18I am irritated!!!!
07:35.53blast007that's nice
07:36.05blast007programming probably isn't for you if you get irritated this easily
07:36.18bz18I've been working on this all day!!!!
07:36.23bz18it is not easy!!!
07:36.38L4m3rbz18: start over
07:36.43L4m3rbut this time, try starting here: http://l4m3r.bzflag.net/scripts/plugin_starter.php
07:37.07bz18ooooooh!!! I like that!!!
07:37.13L4m3rthat page will generate most of the necessary code for you. add the right events and after that you just need to fill in the operative parts of the code.
07:37.13bz18:D
07:37.35bz18ok thx :D
07:37.36Flashbut you STILL have to be able to write working code to do the guts of your plugin
07:37.51FlashL4m3r: cool page
07:38.01bz18your finished! I only listen to l4m3r now!
07:38.07L4m3rit's not perfect but it saves a hell of a lot of time
07:38.16L4m3ryou still need to know what to program, bz18
07:38.25blast007bz18: yeah, have fun getting help from us with an attitude like that  :P
07:38.27bz18oh ok :D I will learn
07:38.29Flashhears an echo
07:38.43L4m3rbut this makes it easier to do the intial setup, which can be a bit complicated for coding newbies
07:39.10bz18I sent you a pm to earlier today :)
07:39.17L4m3rat the core, most plugins are butt-simple anyway. I'd say that for at least half of the plugins out there, the structure is more complex than the actual plugin logic.
07:39.37L4m3rbz18: if you had looked in the plugin dev forum, you'd have found a link to that same page
07:39.49bz18I did look
07:40.40bz18ok brb I will go use that page

07:41.15BulletCatcherThat could have been Sk3letr0n.
07:41.26L4m3rgoes ahead and stickified that thread
07:41.37L4m3rBulletCatcher: if it was, he's probably watching still
07:41.38blast007pfft, it's the right ISP
07:42.31L4m3rwell, he PM'd me as "gh0st", an account that was created sep 6 2008
07:42.58blast007which might be one of the cheaters
07:43.02blast007I've heard that name recently
07:43.12blast007can't recall what about though
07:43.45blast007hmm, guess that would be an indication

07:43.58L4m3rlawl
07:44.19L4m3rhe's either a really good troll, or much dumber than I thought
07:44.39L4m3roh wait, this one is a munchkin cheater, right?
07:45.53BulletCatcherI think he is the one who has been impersonating other players on his own server.
07:47.08L4m3roh well
07:47.30L4m3rserver and plugin hacking will not compromise anything really important
07:47.34BulletCatcherIf he is writing his own plugin it probably is not something others will appreciate.
07:48.02L4m3rthat is the wonderful thing about plugins
07:48.22L4m3rhe could make one that stomps puppies, but it can't do anything once players leave his server

20:45.03Winnycomeandgetit: bans are made on a server by server basis
20:45.09Winnyyou need to complain to the server owners
20:45.13Winnyif they say no, end of discussion
20:45.22Winnyno amount of "plzlzzz!" will help
20:45.41comeandgetitits other admins that are banning me
20:45.43F687s~Winny++
20:46.20me1tell the server owner that they are banning you, and if they shouldn't ban you, the server owner will usually tell them to stop
20:46.43comeandgetithow can i find out who owns the server?

22:35.52L4m3rlol
22:36.22L4m3rI don't think I could find a RADEON 9800, let alone a GeForce 9800 :P
22:36.36CBGYou never know..
22:37.01TD-LinuxL4m3r: what
22:37.02TD-Linux?
22:37.06TD-LinuxA PROJECTOR IN THE TRASH?
22:37.07TD-Linuxalso
22:37.11TD-Linuxwe have a projector too
22:37.17TD-Linuxreplaced our TV :)
22:37.19L4m3rheh
22:37.26L4m3rthat is not a good thing to use a projector for
22:37.31L4m3rbulbs are expensive :(
22:37.44TD-Linuxours is awesomely bright even on low power mode
22:37.56TD-Linuxits lasted two years
22:38.53L4m3rmine's ok. with all the lights on it's rather dim.
22:39.07L4m3rno idea how long this bulb will last

23:04.43TD-LinuxI think we're half into the bulb's rated life
23:05.32blast007that's what they want you to think
23:07.26TD-Linuxno, it's more like a printer cartridge
23:07.31TD-Linuxit warns you when you are past those hours
23:07.46TD-LinuxI pulled out the bulb once to see what it looked like
23:07.52TD-Linuxit was just a huge metal box
23:07.57TD-Linuxwith some rainbowy filter on the side
23:08.03TD-Linuxalso, I got a speck of dust in it
23:08.07TD-Linuxwhich blew out after a week
23:08.16CBGMore expensive to replace compared to buying a new projector with twice as many features and even more expensive bulbs??!
23:08.20TD-Linuxbut was kind of annoying, on the edge of the picture, sometimes visible :/
23:08.27*** join/#bzflag-chat SilentKiller (n=18933c96@bz.bzflag.bz)
23:08.32TD-LinuxCBG, a bulb runs about $300
23:08.36TD-Linuxif this one burns out
23:08.38SilentKillerHi
23:08.40TD-LinuxI'm going to dissassemble the assembly
23:08.47SilentKillerCan someone help me out?
23:08.50TD-Linuxand see if I can replace the bulb without the rest of it
23:08.57TD-LinuxI could save myself $290
