I went to do a cvs update so I could compile in any changes done in the last few months (last compiled 8-22-05), and I was asked for a password (never was before).

Was one added recently?

Thanks.

I use Tortiose to pull the sources out of the CVS directly to my windows box.

Speaking of which, it's been a few weeks since I've checked for new code. Better do that lol

I love it. I've always thought that DB'ing was a bug and the correct fix is to have the clients unable to map two keys to the same function to eliminate it completely. It is still nice to know that I can shut it off DBing on my server, but the problem is that few will. The servers of today rely on D...

Yeah, tank had a server called 4 lives. It was a little before my time, but I heard a lot about it. If he still has that code and it can reasonably be adapted to the new version, it might be a good place to start. Your idea, Luke, seems to include his 4 lives code but with added value. :) I've play...

reduce the rubber amount available?

I got it to work with CodeBlocks. Never heard of them before. interesting idea.

I used the free Microsoft C++ compiler with it, and it worked great.

My name shows up again on 2.7 servers!! and doens't look like ____r__ on 2.8 servers.

ok - spoke too soon -- I had some compiling errors : h:\work\arm\armagetronad\src\tron\gcycle.cpp(1374): fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (compiler file 'f:\vs70builds\3077\vc\Compiler\Utc\src\P2\x86\fppeeps.c', line 1368) H:\work\Arm\armagetronad\src\tools\tRecorder.cpp(600): error C2668:...

I didn't see that there was other things to download from cvs (like the winlibs, etc.)

I have it compiling now. Thanks for pointing me in the right place.

I've tried off and on many times to try to compile this in windows with zero success.

Is someone who knows how to do it able to make a HOW-TO type of doc that walks through what is needed to compile it?

Thanks

Thanks. I found them.

Just wondering, is there a windows pre-compiled version of a 2.8.0-pre version anywhere? I recompiled on my linux box the client and server last night from the latest in CVS, and I like the look of it (and it fixes a few bugs that I found in the windows client that I'm currently using - one of the 2...

That is SICK and WRONG!

ranks up there with my 4-year-old.

I installed MAME on a computer he uses, and he's figured out that in fighting games, if you put in enough credits for a 2-player game, he'll win

In Mario Brothers, he was so excited the first time that he cleared the first level

I just type in 'ftp' from a 'cmd' window.

Told you I was old school.

to me, it seems like it would be very hard to play.

The walls are supposedly paper thin, you'd expect the vehicle to be similarly dimentioned.
