00:19.14shorty114alright i'm pissed as hell
00:19.21a_meteoritethat's nice.
00:19.22shorty114that's the second time that jackass Moto Unit had banned me for no reasono
00:19.43JeffM2501then take it up with the server owner, no need to rant here
00:20.01shorty114yeah but i haven't seen viper in ages :o
00:20.05shorty114i'll look ont he forums
00:20.16JeffM2501send him a pm
00:20.39shorty114yeah
00:20.50JeffM2501if he dosn't admin his server well enough, then pick another. it's not like there is a shortage ;)
00:21.23shorty114yeah but it's viper's server
00:21.35shorty114and somehow moto unit got admin from him
00:21.38JeffM2501that dosn't mean that viper picks good admins
00:21.42JeffM2501so
00:21.43shorty114yeah you have a point
00:21.56shorty114i remember he gave everyone cop
00:22.34shorty114including me
00:22.43shorty114then i took a "hiatus" from bzflag and it died
00:22.47shorty114but anyways
00:24.11JeffM2501if he gave everyone cop, then that dosn't speak well of his admin picking ability ;)
00:24.18shorty114yeah
00:24.41shorty114hmm i'll try pm and if he doesn't reply in a week or so i'll email him

02:05.02JeffM2501so ban him
02:10.11L4m3rWe don't own all the servers, jeff :P
02:12.04JeffM2501then not much else ya can do ;)
02:13.11L4m3rit'd be nice to be able to disable -solo bots by default
02:13.47JeffM2501make a plugin that kicks any player that is the name as a normal player, but has a number at the end :)
02:13.54L4m3ror at least disable them without killing autopilot
02:13.58A-Delusionwe do have our own masterban list. though most servers don't reload it often
02:14.14L4m3rand as for the plugin, I'm way ahead of you... by a few months :P
02:14.21JeffM2501then there ya go
02:14.30L4m3rsame IP and "00" at the end = kick
02:14.43L4m3rwhich then brings down any subsequent bots
02:14.46A-Delusioni think one server has been up for 146 days, groups stopped working 2 months ago,

04:22.55AAA_awrightI always post about my work on IRC first, so listen up bzflag server administrators...
04:24.13AAA_awrightI have created a 100% PHP solution that starts, stops, and resets your bzfs server. but wait! there is more...
04:24.24a_meteoriteBut, but, I was doing that.
04:24.33AAA_awrightDid you do it sucessfully?
04:24.46a_meteoriteNo. Continue.
04:24.53AAA_awrightAnyway, it also edits the configuration files and reads user /reports
04:24.57AAA_awrightas of now.
04:25.24a_meteoriteCool. I need that. You open-sourcing it?
04:25.30AAA_awrightsoon...
04:26.21AAA_awrightIt is actually really cool. You can add multiple servers, and have them shar permissions automaticly,
04:26.53JeffM2501it have any security features?
04:27.10AAA_awrightI will open-source it when I add the ability for you to log in... (no, i dont have that yet)
04:27.26JeffM2501you have plans for any? or leave it up to the server?
04:27.28a_meteoriteImplement logging in and set security levels on global groups.
04:27.36a_meteoriteAt least, that's what I'd do.
04:29.27AAA_awrightIt (will) autolaticly run /reload when it changes the group files
04:29.58AAA_awrightIf all goes well, I could even implement a BZAdmin-like interface in the web browser.
04:30.05AAA_awrightThat is last, though
04:31.34AAA_awrightOnce I figured out that you had to redirect stdin AND sttdout AND output from the shell, AND run it with nohup, AND append the "&", all finally went well :)
04:31.54JeffM2501so it's nix only then?
04:32.18a_meteoriteJeffM2501: Should I add that 98% of "serious" servers use *nix? :)
04:32.20AAA_awrightIn theory, it could work in windows, but who runs big bzfs servers on windows, anyway?
04:32.23JeffM2501I know
04:32.47JeffM2501windows dosn't do the & thing, or nohup
04:33.03a_meteoriteAlthough, adapting it would be useful to someone... if it's even worth the time...
04:33.07JeffM2501I'm just sayin that if it's released, that quesion WILL come up
04:33.34a_meteoritePreferably I'd run a plugin of some sort that forwards info to the server and uses ajax to refresh.
04:33.54AAA_awrightFor what?
04:34.12a_meteoriteFor a bzadmin like interface online.
04:34.17a_meteoriteSorta like masterbot.
04:34.39JeffM2501he can just login
04:34.43AAA_awrightI could use my very own script, BZFlag_info. It can join as an observer, and so on.
04:34.46a_meteoriteyeah
04:34.47JeffM2501tho then he's dependent on protocoll
04:34.56JeffM2501both ways are valid
04:35.16AAA_awrightThat is how I shut down the server, have BZFlag_info login, run /password, and /shutdownserver
04:35.24JeffM2501the direct login dosn't have the API limits as well
04:36.23AAA_awrightIf I want to keep this PHP-only, i will run a PHP loop in the background, that updates a file every 1/2 second or so, and reads another file for input to run.
04:36.36a_meteoriteThat sounds hackish in a sense to me.
04:37.38a_meteoriteThat's always fun. :P
04:37.57a_meteoriteHomework time...
04:38.18AAA_awrightWill keep you updated, it is somthing you could use
04:39.22AAA_awright100% PHP, no plugins or C :)
04:40.03blast007so can BZFlag_info pull chat messages back?
04:40.12AAA_awrightYes
04:40.15blast007neat
04:40.26blast007similar so some code that I have laying around then
04:40.28AAA_awrightI can sho you an example... somewhere here
04:40.56blast007mine can track flag pickups, kills, chat, etc
04:41.05AAA_awrighthttp://bzflag.redjacket.ws/source/BZFlag_Info/examples/loop.php
04:41.21blast007was working player updates, but wasn't able to properly unpack the vectors
04:41.26blast007working on*
04:41.48AAA_awrightWhat would you need vectors for?
04:42.01*** join/#bzflag codergeek42 (n=peter@gentoo/developer/codergeek42)
04:42.17AAA_awrightUnless you were making another bzflag client...
04:42.50blast007making a 2D image every X seconds showing tank positions  :)
04:43.00AAA_awrightcool
04:43.17blast007I had some code to turn a .bzw into a radar style image as well, using PHP/GD
04:43.32blast007that was before the new mesh objects though
04:43.34a_meteoriteblast007: Wow, I was thinking of something like that!
04:43.37a_meteoriteYou still got it?
04:43.43AAA_awrightDo you have it published? at least what it is so far?
04:43.59blast007a_meteorite: I think so
04:44.06blast007I'd have to locate it
04:44.25blast007it's probably on one of my hard drives...or maybe a USB stick
04:44.27AAA_awrightI am still strugling with how to download the worlds
04:44.37AAA_awrightworld files..
04:44.45blast007mine just parsed a local file
04:45.12blast007it also marked where world weapons were located
04:45.23AAA_awrightNeed to implement that, too...
04:46.00AAA_awrightMy script is just a clone of bzadmin,
04:46.20blast007ooo, found it
04:46.25AAA_awrightBZFlag_Loop, the extension of BZFlag_Connection, part of the BZFlag_info project
04:46.38blast007bzthumb  :)
04:48.09AAA_awrightCould I see?
04:49.32JeffM2501he requires payment.... in girlie giggles.
04:49.47blast007http://bz.porteighty.org/downloads/bzthumb.zip
04:49.48blast007heh
04:50.49AAA_awrighthttp://bzflag.redjacket.ws/client/ This was my "somewhat-proof-of-concept".
04:51.05a_meteoriteJeffM2501: That's what I run from. EEK!
04:52.08AAA_awrightha
04:52.23JeffM2501real men can girlie giggle!
04:52.45a_meteoriteyou mean girlie man?
04:52.51L4m3rwith helium they can...
04:53.04JeffM2501hellz yeah
04:53.25JeffM2501you can not be a real man unless you are secure of yourself
04:54.03a_meteoriteUh oh, that I haven't done. Scratch the possible future GF.
04:54.27JeffM2501chicks dig the girlie giggles
04:54.33JeffM2501it's why they do it so much
04:54.59JeffM2501that and peeing in groups.. for some reason
04:55.14a_meteorite...peeing in public...?!
04:55.18SportChick:x
04:55.27a_meteoriteO_o
04:56.31a_meteoriteYou can pronounce me girlie man now. ;)
04:56.50JeffM2501not in public
04:56.54JeffM2501that's just silly
04:57.07JeffM2501put 2 of em at a dinner table, one has to go, the other will follow
04:57.14JeffM2501it's like wierd
04:57.27JeffM2501sportChick what do you all do in there?
04:57.41JeffM2501is there some sort of magic resort you can't tell the guys about?
04:57.45L4m3rlol
04:58.02a_meteoriterofl
04:58.31L4m3rthey're making fun of you behind your back, Jeff
04:58.34L4m3rkill them!
04:58.52JeffM2501why would they have to use the restroom for that? there are many better places
04:58.58SportChicklol JeffM2501
04:59.40SportChickJeffM2501: frankly, ~I~ never understood the going to the restroom in pairs and gaggles either.  The only reason might be if there is a long line - so you have someone to talk to while you waite :)
04:59.51JeffM2501line?
05:00.14JeffM2501why would there be a line to the restroom at anywhere but a sporting event?
05:01.41purple_cowJeffM2501: it's for conferences
05:02.22JeffM2501heh
05:02.33SportChickJeffM2501: obviously you haven't been to enough public places
05:02.43SportChickwomen's restrooms ALWAYS seem to have a line
05:02.50L4m3rJeffM2501: females take longer for obvious reasons, so their restrooms back up
05:02.51SportChickit's almost like a prerequisite or something
05:02.51JeffM2501ya all take too long
05:03.11JeffM2501maybe if they didn't go in groups, there would be a better trafic flow
05:03.14SportChickJeffM2501: don't generalize :)
05:03.23JeffM2501I'm just kiddin :)
05:03.23SportChickI'm not your "typical" gal :)
05:03.36SportChickyeah, but you're right in many cases :p
05:03.40JeffM2501guys go swift like the wind. no eye contact
05:03.49JeffM2501in out, done. like the night
05:04.15JeffM2501we
05:04.15L4m3runless it's *into* the wind. then there are problems.
05:04.17JeffM2501we
05:04.20JeffM2501gahh
05:04.40JeffM2501we'd throw down a smokebomb and vanish like ninja's if it'd not set off the sprinkers
05:05.00blast007JeffM2501: some might do it anyway, just cuz it would be cool
05:05.10JeffM2501heh
05:10.01SportChickJeffM2501: btw, thanks for the help earlier
05:10.18SportChickI'll have a better idea on what she can look at after tuesd
05:10.28JeffM2501ohh sure
05:10.44JeffM2501if she's got a full grand, you can get some nice 17inch laptops for that
05:11.07JeffM2501450-500 is easy to do on a 14
05:11.34JeffM2501you can also try overstock.com
05:11.40JeffM2501they can have deals as well
05:15.15SportChickyep
05:15.24SportChickwell, she'll have to pay for some s/w out of that money too
05:15.34SportChickbut as long as windows is on there, I think she's ok
05:15.49JeffM2501what else does she need? office?
05:15.51SportChickshe could do open office and then pull the other two programs off the other computer
05:16.00SportChickquick books and one other program I'm not familiar with
05:16.29JeffM2501the dell's can be configed with real office at a hefty discount IIRC, if she needs real office
05:17.45SportChickJeffM2501: she probably wouldn't notice the difference, but who knows
05:17.48SportChickshe has it on the old computer
05:18.00SportChickdunno if she has the actual s/w though or if it came pre-installed
05:18.04JeffM2501is she going to not use the old computer anymore?
05:18.17JeffM2501techicnaly all she needs is the license
05:18.20JeffM2501media is easy to find
05:18.44SportChickwell, it will be used by her kids (no 'net though)
05:18.46JeffM2501aka: hint hint, wink wink.
05:19.00JeffM2501then techincaly she'd have to get new licenses for the new machine
05:19.08JeffM2501of any software that is to be used on both machines
05:19.30SportChickJeffM2501: well, I think for the most part she could pull the s/w off the old
05:19.36SportChickand put open office on it instead
05:19.38SportChickor whatever
05:21.07blast007OO.o should be sufficient for home users
05:21.37JeffM2501yeah, unless she needs any MS specific stuff, OO is fine
05:21.44JeffM2501heck, she can make her kids use OO :)
05:21.45blast007I do prefer full Microsoft Office though... it's faster
05:21.57L4m3ryeah, seriously
05:22.25L4m3rwhen you try to outdo M$, bloatware shouldn't be one of your objectives
05:22.44JeffM2501OO will be realy cool in like 3 years
05:22.53blast007yup
05:22.58L4m3r...if you notice a performance difference in a word processor, something is wrong! :(
05:23.10JeffM2501gimp was suposed to be realy cool this year, but they've been slacking off
05:23.17blast007L4m3r: notepad loads faster than wordpad!
05:23.27L4m3rimo gimp is already cool :)
05:23.50L4m3rcouple of interface greviances, but otherwise I find it very capable
05:23.53JeffM2501it has many cool features, but it's interface sill needs lots of work, for it to be considered for biz work
05:24.01JeffM2501yeah it's all interface
05:24.23JeffM2501it's software writen by people who care more about the low end features, then how to use it, cus hey, they KNOW how to use it :)
05:24.38JeffM2501they need to work that PS interface mod in, then it'll kick ass
05:25.09L4m3rheh
05:25.23L4m3rI found PS's interface a bit on the clunky side as well
05:25.40L4m3rthe tool windows shouldn't float, it'd be nice if they docked into the side of the screen
05:25.49JeffM2501OO has the majority of the functionality, and the interface is OK, but they need to optimise the hell outa it
05:25.55L4m3ryeah
05:26.03SportChickJeffM2501: that was my point - let the kids use the OO
05:26.09blast007(and make VBScript's work)
05:26.09JeffM2501then they need something that MS dosn't do
05:26.30JeffM2501that is probably there hardest task
05:26.35L4m3rribbons
05:26.42L4m3rMS ditched the ribbons :P
05:26.50blast007Office 2007 looks pretty cool
05:27.00blast007but it will be a huge change for people
05:27.18L4m3rthat's a common complaint of most of their upcoming products
05:27.34L4m3rVista, Media Center...
05:27.42JeffM2501hey, masive dibilitating changes worked for apple!!!
05:27.42blast007L4m3r: no, the common complaint about vista is that it will suck completely  ;)
05:27.49L4m3rIE7 seems a tad... wonky
05:28.07L4m3rblast007: it doesn't seem THAT bad
05:28.11blast007IE7, now with 15% less evil
05:28.34L4m3rVista is a bit akward but seems to work well enough
05:28.49L4m3rinstallation is a pain though, it took forever
05:29.10blast007I installed the beta on a USB hard drive, and it blue screened on boot
05:29.15blast007so I had to run it in VMWare
05:29.50L4m3rheh
05:30.12L4m3rran fine for me
05:30.19L4m3ron a PATA drive...
05:30.41blast007I was using my lappy, and didn't want to blow away XP ;)
05:30.50L4m3rheh
05:30.50blast007only system that had a chance of running it
05:30.54L4m3rI just used a spare drive
05:31.06L4m3rnice thing about desktops... you can leave extra parts in there
05:32.24JeffM2501hah, maybe somone will buy this extra PC if I say it's "vista ready" :)
05:32.58blast007"vista ready" == "powers on"
05:33.12JeffM2501well and "dosn't use intel onboard video"
05:33.21L4m3rlol
05:33.31blast007heh, seemed to work fine with a virtual graphics adapter  ;)
05:33.37JeffM2501it's not a bad machine, 2.8 gig celly, with a GF 6200
05:33.39blast007of course no fancy shiny gui
05:33.57L4m3rthe fancy shiny GUI feels duct-taped on
05:34.24blast007DuctTape.c

16:30.05stjepanManu, you, right?
16:30.22stjepanI've got a problem: I got banned :(
16:30.23Manuare you asking it really?ç
16:30.43stjepanruskie is hating me too much :(
16:31.01stjepanit was very uneven
16:31.10stjepanruskie carried their flag so I killed him
16:31.12Manuand why got you banned?
16:31.14stjepanthen he banned me
16:31.21stjepanManu, what do you think of this?
16:31.36stjepankilled = tked
16:31.48Manuyes, I guessed it
16:31.58stjepanManu, pls can you do anything about this?
16:32.00Manuwell he is a cop, you don't need to kill h im
16:32.16stjepanhuh... I just killed him :(
16:32.19Manulet me see
16:32.25stjepanhe could at least warn me or something
16:32.36L4m3rI hear more and more complaining about uneven capping on the two castles...
16:32.48stjepanL4m3r, yes, that's true
16:33.04L4m3rit's either the cops doing it, or the cops being overzealous about enforcing the courtesy of not doing it
16:33.11stjepannaah, cops are ok
16:33.16stjepanbut they are sleepign
16:34.11Manustjepan: he was taking the red flag to the red team when 7vs2
16:34.52Manuit's 1 week ban, next time you must talk at first
16:35.19stjepanManu, pls can you unban him?
16:35.19ibunnyohhhh
16:35.21stjepanI'll excuse
16:35.31stjepans/unban him/unban me
16:35.34ManuI must not, just pm him
16:35.43stjepantwo weeks is too much :(
16:35.48stjepanor 1 week
16:35.50stjepanwhatever
16:36.05L4m3rlol
16:36.06ibunnytissue?
16:36.16stjepanManu, please?
16:36.40Manuthis chat os not to dead about bans, just send him a message
16:36.40L4m3rit's just a game... one game, of over 200. who knows, you may find a new server that you like.
16:37.33blast007like my server, that shares bandwidth with bittorrent
16:37.55L4m3rPerhaps there should be a plugin that randomly kills members of the larger team with increasing frequency as the teams get more and more uneven
16:37.56stjepanManu, how?
16:38.07stjepanManu, I can't join, I'm banned

16:39.19stjepank, cu
16:39.28ibunnymanu q mediador eres ahora?
16:39.28L4m3rso, at 7v2, it'd be killing someone from the bigger team about every 15 seconds... enough of a nuisance to get people to switch
16:39.47Manuibunny: jeje, sí.. también tengo que hacer eso
16:39.50orangeI like the plugin that prevents the stronger team from carrying the weaker team's flag, myself
16:40.01ibunnymanu dile a sean q porfavor me hable q es muy guapo :P please manu manu haha
16:40.04orangepeople get sick of it and rebalance
16:40.15L4m3ryeah, I do too ( ;) ) but it needs work, when I get around to it
16:40.26orangeheh
16:40.29L4m3rI should just add the roulette handicap to it
16:40.34orangeone modification to it has made it good
16:40.39orangeit prevents only the stronger team
16:40.44L4m3ryeah
16:40.49orangeand people can always carry their own
16:40.51L4m3rone of many options that will be worked in...
16:41.03L4m3rit needs a rewrite, basically
16:41.05Manuibunny: qué le has hecho para que no te hable? :)
16:41.22ibunnyno nada, si no q se demora mucho :P
16:41.46L4m3rI'd also like to add a "free run" option, so you can run the flag once you pick it up, even if teams get uneven while you have it
16:42.33L4m3r...so the team can't just bail en masse before a capture to get their flag dropped
16:43.03orangethe activation delay helps with that
16:43.27ibunnyoh look another orange
16:43.38L4m3rthe activation delay was for a completely different problem, believe it or not ;)
16:43.46the_enemyi've definitely played a server that has killed people if they flag carry with uneven teams
16:43.51the_enemyit does warn you first
16:44.27L4m3rwithout the delay the plugin gets spastic for some reason... it'd switch back and forth contsantly
16:44.29*** part/#bzflag ibunny (n=alex@pdpc/supporter/active/jolie)
16:44.42L4m3rthe delay forces it to wait 5 seconds and make sure it hasn't changed back again
16:45.33orangeL4m3r: different math for determining unfair versus even again? ;-)
16:46.06L4m3rthe math is pretty straightforward, just a straight ratio
16:46.10Manubrlcad: 40% now o_P
16:46.11L4m3r...with some special rules

20:34.39Nebukadnezai got some probs with bzflag on gnu/linux xorg 7.1 with 'nv' as driver (on one of my 2 heads)
20:34.49Nebukadnezawhen i start bzflag i get a Could not set Video Mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual.
20:35.10JeffM2501the nv driver does not supply hardware accelerated open GL
20:35.17JeffM2501you want the "nvidia" one
20:35.30Nebukadnezasure - which isnt free and doesnt work with xorg 7.1
20:35.43Nebukadnezabut is there no way to run bzflag without glx? i mean - i even ran it on vesa already
20:35.51JeffM2501install mesa
20:35.57JeffM2501but it'll be slow as hell
20:36.08JeffM2501it's sofware GLX
20:36.10Nebukadnezano big problem
20:36.50Nebukadnezarebuilding sdl or bzflag after that?
20:36.54JeffM2501nope
20:37.06JeffM2501gl is a dynamic library
20:37.09JeffM2501it's not compiled in
20:37.10Nebukadnezaokay
20:37.16Nebukadnezathanks alot - i'll try it
20:37.24JeffM2501it'll be REALY slow
20:37.41Nebukadnezaeven on a athlon 2125? i mean - there _is_ enough cpu to emulate
20:37.50Nebukadnezaand bzflag is not the big graphics explosion
20:38.14JeffM2501if you keep it to low res you'll probalby be ok
20:38.29JeffM2501like 15ish frames
20:38.42JeffM2501you can turn stuff off to help
20:38.45RatOmeterI'd be interested to know if it was usable like that... might be useful to others later
20:39.05JeffM2501I'm sure at 640x480 at medium it'll be ok
20:39.16JeffM2501the biger the frame buffer, the slower it'll go tho
20:39.24JeffM2501as you have to shuck around a lot more data
20:39.28Nebukadnezaaaah
20:39.34Nebukadnezajust found out nv supports a bit of glx
20:39.44JeffM2501sending the entire frame image from the cpu over the bus to the video card
20:39.55JeffM2501with hardware, the card does it all, so the image never hits the bus
20:40.22JeffM2501nv does have some sofware support, but it's iffy at best from what I've seen
20:41.54JeffM2501says x.org 7.1 support was added in version 8774 of the real nvidia drivers

23:01.11JeffM2501what's a good name for a short range, in system cargo transport spaceship?
23:01.22a_meteoriteummm
23:04.33Erroneous"short range intrasystem cargo transport"
23:04.47ErroneousSRICT?
23:04.58JeffM2501no, like the idividual ship name
23:05.05JeffM2501like "titanic"
23:05.17Erroneous"short range intrasystem cargo transport #1153"
23:05.25Erroneous;)
23:05.28JeffM2501bahh.. where is the fun in that :)
23:05.51tannerldlol
23:10.13Erroneouswhat kind of attitude does it have?  if it's a snobby cargo hauler, it might be named after somebody famous.  if it's a garbage truck, it might be a bit more earthy...
23:10.46JeffM2501space trucker!
23:11.11JeffM2501that's willing to smugle in some alliance operatives, for the right price
23:11.23Erroneoushmm

23:27.22JeffM2501Erroneous, your right, my grammar is horible
23:28.30Erroneous"you're"
23:28.32Erroneous:)
23:28.54Erroneousgrammar can be fixed though
23:29.01Erroneousa broken story is harder to fix
23:29.05JeffM2501yeah
23:29.20JeffM2501I'm changing a couple small parts to make it flow better
23:29.32Erroneouscool
23:29.39a_meteoritej00 411 5uckkk @ grammer ;)
23:29.42a_meteoriteheh.
23:30.58JeffM2501some of the sentances just don't flow right
23:31.10Theme97Why does BZFlag seem to lag more when the quality is low/medium on some computers?
23:31.32JeffM2501many cards don't do the stuff that low does well
23:31.46JeffM2501they are optimised for the stuff modern games do
23:31.56JeffM2501like z buffers, and textures.
