it's out now alot of servers now use it so you need it too play on them.
itti
yeah and it adds this punkbuster crap to your quake
johnnyv
well what can you do?
if it worked it would be good
it may work on day :wink:
frew
yeah, quake 3 has never worked for me :-/
johnnyv
quake 3 works great on linux!!!!!!!

was talking about the punkbuster anti-cheat protection
joehill
what's bad about Punkbuster?

not being cheeky, I just haven't played with it on the net yet.

personally, I was getting tired of people who were a little too "lucky" with the Rail... :x
itti
if you donīt have the skill to use the railgun itīs your problem. i hate people that blame others of cheating because they play to good. you need punkbuster etc. in games like counter strike because of the high amount of kiddies playing on the servers, and of client-side-aiming of course.

Do you have 3d drivers installed for your radeon?
typing 'glxgears' in console works?
out of the box? is that free download or bought box?
nvidia drivers aren't supplied in the free download as they are proprietary like radeon i would assume. you have to install them yourself.

Have you got a previous point release to work in the 9.0 version of mandrake?
1.32 runs perfectly fine in my download version of 9.0 after 3d drivers were installed
dinit131
glxgears does work fairly well I assume -5375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1075.000 FPS

Reflect gives a segmentation fault. Point release 1.31 works. I even reinstalled ontop the same folder as 1.32 and it still does. However, 1.32 does not at all. ID team response team said to upgrade my drivers. I wouldn't mind doing that if I knew how. I have three reference books Running Linux is open to the chapter on building the kernel. Even this far into the book I'm still bewildered.


I downloaded the Mandrake 9 this time. I bought 8.1. glxinfo shows direct rendering. I don't know the first thing about Linux maintenance but I believe my drivers are set up the right way from the initial install.
johnnyv
that is strange if glxgears works and glxinfo say direct rendering is on then it should work fine.
I will have a look tonight at home.
for q3a i just used quake3 as my startup command, for urban terror (q3a mod) i had to specify some arguments to get it to run stablely so i will get back to you on this as i cant remember what they were.

Thank you but I might be a lost case. I don't want to waste anyones' time Edit- except for the developers if I can help them a l$ttle.. Here is a link of some others with the problem . I can relay anything over there if something is to come of this and you want to bother. No obligation.

I downloaded cd 1 , cd 2, and NS:CO (which is around a 300MBs a gargantuan mod) on a 56k. HAHA andI cannot find any servers now. Somehow I felt relieved once the downloading was over. Still I'm not out of the woods yet.
johnnyv
I had a look around but no luck sorry.
Somebody need to put a tutorial on how to get and install the newest radeon drivers maybe, like DOlson has got for the nvidia drivers.
