Bug Reports / Re: Rev 1154 , runtime segfault
« on: April 30, 2007, 05:47:20 am »
seems there is a problem with ce_gui in the svn, it has not been regenerated or somthing.
I posted it as a bug and it should get fixed soon. Will try precursors again after that. now got to fix my plugins as latested svn just bonked them again.

Bug Reports / Rev 1154 , runtime segfault
« on: April 18, 2007, 07:00:09 am »
Hi all,
   well , I'v decided it time I got out of my sandbox and started trying to get to grips with precursors svn. the problems is that the last 3 times I tried to get it compiled and working I have failed. this was not a problem while I was working in my sandbox but now that I want to start working with precursors code base it's a real roadblock.

   I know that everyone is busy with exams and stuff, but it would be so much easier if I could start looking at precursors with a working codebase so I could get the hang of how it's put together.

   Now i'm not sure what is the actual cause of this error but I would guess that since  the last update of precursors svn, cel has changed. Since i dont know what version of CS and cel were in use when precursors svn was last updated I'm stuck with trying to debug a large piece of code that I am totally unfamiliar with.
 
  So, I suggest we start keeping track of the REV# of CS and CEL that where in use when precursors is updated. I think this would be a good improvement as it would help keep the development more accessible by allowing development to continue even if an update to CS or CEL breaks Precursors, development could continue on with the last usable svn's of CEL and CS while the new problem is fixed.   

 going to try revert CS and CEL back to the 13th April versions and see if that will help. but as I am not sure what versions whitelynx was using when he commited his last update that could just be a waste of time.

would welcome some feedback.
 



Precursors Revision: 1154
CS Revision: 26783
CEL Revision: 2703

Precursors and cel compile without errers
CS cant compile cs_cegui.o ( ingnore for the moment ) but no other errors

Wallpapers / star and planets
« on: April 11, 2007, 08:11:20 pm »
just some pictures from my generator







everything is generated from code except the planet textures. planets orbit and rotate. Still got some artifacts from certian distances. lots of stuff still to do. but really should get precursors compiled and try intergrate the two.

comments welcome.

Precursors / Re: just some screen shots of what i been doing!
« on: March 27, 2007, 07:11:36 pm »
Well , starting to make it a bit nicer looking, but I fear I am killing the fps. Well, here is the latested.



going to try get some sort of halo plugin working as the one in CS is lacking some basic features I need. 

I also was in touch with kiolakin and got access to the cvs of his planetmesh plugin, now just got to figure out how to compile it ( he using msvc ). but from what i saw its seems perfect for precursors ( he is looking for a svn repository to keep his development files so I pointed him in your direction, hope you dont mind, think it would be a good idea to give him as much support as possible ).

and on a final note the reson I trying to get precursors compiled is i think it's time    I started trying to intergrate my solar plugin to see how that would work (with regard to scale and fps) . bit of a shame i dont have as much time as i did but that the way it goes.
   

regards

hi,
   Just want to let you all know the reason I'v not been about lately, I been having computer problems. First my DVD drive stopped working , when i was trying to see what was wrong with that the HDD drive that holds my "home" dir got a bad superblock, and to cap it all my telephone company decided it was a good time to disconect my phone for a week. so been having a bad 2 weeks regarding computers.
   Hopefully I will be able to recover my HDD as I have a lot of stuff setup on that drive and would be a real pain to set it all up again. luckly the code i been working on is on the svn server so that should be ok. anyway, I should be back up and running sometime next week(when I get the time to fix my ubuntu setup).

Regards

Precursors / Just dropping a line to update everyone!!
« on: February 28, 2007, 09:26:46 am »
Hi all,
   Just to let everyone know that I am still around.Been working on a star background, I got a plugin that draws the stars from the catalog for each frame but have had no success getting it to look good. Seem like there is a shortage of graphic functions that I can use in CS. Also this is very expensive in FPS.
   So I am planning on tring to get imagemagick working and create a normal skybox using 6 meterials. 
   I started a job so I dont have nearly as much time to spend on this as I did but I am still plugging away. Anyway , would be interested in hearing what everyone else is up to and any suggestions on how to make stars look good. 

Regards

Precursors Artwork / Re: Photoshop tutorials for making planets and stars
« on: February 11, 2007, 07:23:16 am »
well, I did a little bit of work on this



http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/1448/screenshotwd9.png

still got a few issues, The stars are generated from the star catalog and draw each frame. The stars are currently rendered last due to a bug with taking screen shots while window was resizing. Will have to ask jorrit if anything has been done about that. I had this working the right ( stars in background) but had that bug crashing app, will have to see if it's a CS bug or somthing i was doing.

Unfortunitly I dont have as much time as I used to code so things going much slower. I need to make this star thing it's own plugin as it currently in the same plugin as stargen which is GPL (Used that pluging as it already loaded the star catalog). and need to work out how to use effects to sharpen and blur the image to make it look better. but it's a start on a dymanic star's.

Basicly it just draws a point for each star on the screen. Things to add
 
   Different colours for different star types
   Different brightness different luminisoties
   Taking faraway stars, drawing them and then bluring them to give shades of space

Comments welcome, is this the direction we want to go with skybox?

Precursors / Router busted

Hi all, If you where wondering what happened to me my router died a couple of days ago, while I got my internet connection working again it's on a USB modem that wont work in linux. So going to be a bit before you hear from me, Hopefully it wont take to long to sort out. Till then everyone have a good new year.

Precursors / Re: A few game design questions!! and a bit more :)
« on: December 27, 2006, 07:49:44 am »
I was thinking 1 CS unit is 1 meter

 100000 (around where CS stops working )  /  (1 m X 1,000 ) = 100km 

while 100km would be ok with things moving at 320m/s , we going to require 3 seperate scales to track all this. A large scale to cover out to about 60AU , a medium scale to handle out to about 100,000 km , and the the small scale for everthing less than a 100km. Only way I can see it working. On a positave note I got it rendering a 2d background, the dark cloud is that it seg faults when the screen get to a certian size :(. so currently I'm looking at doing 4 render passes per frame. Will be interesting what FPS we get with that. Only good thing is that most of the passes will have very little to render.

regards

« on: December 22, 2006, 08:36:08 pm »
I dont know what is wrong, where is the end of a compile a debug run and an error trace. As far as i can see the call to
  cegui->Initialize ();

is wrong as the api defines

 iCEGUI::Initialize ( iScript * script = 0 )

but then the "= 0 " , I really dont understand. So i was thinking i would try the released version instead of te svn versions and see if i could get that to work.

Bug Reports / Cant get current precursors to run
« on: December 22, 2006, 05:55:29 am »
Yep still here, have not seen precursors on my machine in a long time.
got current everthing and it all seems to compile ok. I get this when i run it in the debuger.

will try hunt this down myself for laughs but not much to go on yet.

So, is this to old array problem that was supposed to be fixed or a new one?

Precursors / A few game design questions!! and a bit more :)
« on: December 20, 2006, 07:37:46 pm »
Just want to toss these out there.

what is precursors basic unit in space going to be, ( ie 1 unit in CS = how many m/km) ?
what is the maximum speed in km/s a ship can travel in normal flight.

think these are pretty basic and hope we have at least some suggestions, I'v being doing some number crunching and I keep coming back to these numbers as being very important.

for example 1 unit cs = 10m gives a max sector size of 1000km , this is not to bad as long as our ships are not travelling 500 km/s. also large planets are over 60,000km raidus , this still going to be a bit of a problem.

think the actual game play needs to be thought out better. If we going to have space battles we need to keep the max speed of the ships low.

My idea at the moment is as follows

Fighter class:
   high acceleration
   medium top speed
   good manoeuvrability
   short range ( can only get around a planet system ).
   good short range weapons.

Trader / Miner :
   low acceleration
   low top speed
   medium manoeuvrability
   long range ( got an in system drive for planet hopping / upgradable to a solar drive  )
   medium short and long range weapons.

Frigate
   medium acceleration
   high top speed
   medium manoeuvrability
   long range ( got an in system drive / and solar drive )
   good short range weapons and medium long range weapons.

Capital Ship
   low acceleration
   high top speed
   low manoeuvrability
   long range ( got an in system drive / and solar drive )
   good short range weapons and good long range weapons.
   can spawn fighters

The idea being that we try to limit the speeds of ships when they fighting. By creating certain assests for people to fight over like bases and space stations we should be able to concentrate groups of people into battles. We use stuff like in system drives to cut out most of the time involved in travel from planet to planet ( use mass of a body and mass of a ship to calculate how close a insystem drive can get you to a planet ).

At a higher level, we got two sides, we start off with a couple of systems with bases/stations. These  are the factories of the game.Only in systems with bases can you spawn, trade/ buy ships or supplies. when a system has a base belonging to one race the other cannot build a base in that system till it has destroyed all enemy bases.

A player may spawn at any base belonging to his race, but ships and inventory will not spawn warp with the player. fighters are free at bases but have to be bought for capital ships, a player can also use the bases defensive weaponry. The person/group who build a base in a system are basicly that systems lord and get a cut of all transactions in that base. Money is created by mining and killing enemy ships ( traders are not considered enemy ).

anyway, I'll stop there as this is getting to long.

So what you think?

they still pritty rough but going to try figure out some way of getting 2 different scales working at the same time. Then I will try make it look pritty :)





PS, the forums been very quite. anything going on !!!!!
