04:36:00Zoomberwhy hello there good citizens
04:37:00raptorhi
04:37:00Zoomberhow are you?
04:37:00Zoomberi am in the process of making something cool
04:37:00Zoombercheck this out
04:37:00Zoomberhttp://bitfighter.sytes.net/bitfighter/
04:37:00Zoombernote: not my domain, im using a dynamicDNS service to track my ip
04:38:00raptorneat
04:38:00Zoomberi accdidnetally reversed the soft-alias linking idea of mine, so thats why levels/robots/etc dont work
04:38:00Zoomberbut i will fix that in a second
04:38:00Zoomberalso don't know what the heck happened to my index.html file, but that disappeared, so i have to remake that
04:38:00raptorhaha
04:38:00raptorcool
04:39:00Zoomberah ok
04:39:00Zoomberi see
04:39:00Zoomberfor some reason, i must use .html.EN
04:39:00Zoombernot just .html
04:40:00Zoomberstrange how certain web software works
04:41:00Zoomberaah. if only bitfighter could find soft links
04:41:00Zoomberthats ok though, i can just modify the .sh script
04:42:00ZoomberPRESTO
04:42:00Zoomberfixed
04:43:00Zoomberok
04:44:00Zoombernow check it out, all i need is the upload level part
04:44:00raptorMUCH better... :]
04:44:00Zoomberthat i seemed to forget about...somewhere along the line
04:45:00Zoomberaand i can still run bitfigther perfectly fine
04:45:00Zoombermaybe....
04:46:00sam686problem with SDL and windows? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xv8vYizYYW4 pressing alt+tab may make pointer get stuck at top left corner.. This only happens when in full screen and when cursor is hidden. SDL_ShowCursor(SDL_DISABLE);
04:47:00sam686the video recorder forced the recording of cursor, even when it is hidden on real screen..
04:47:00sam686the problem is when using some absolute pointer position (touch screen)..
04:48:00Zoomberhmmm
04:50:00raptorZoomber: your admin password shows in the INI
04:50:00ZoomberLOLl
04:50:00Zoomberthat could be a bad problem
04:50:00Zoomberill just set it to something else
04:51:00Zoomberand if i need to restart the server, i will change while the server is running, in game
04:51:00raptorsam686: I'm taking a short break from SDL stuff... I'm so close to getting input on Mac working
04:51:00raptorsoooo close
04:51:00Zoomberraptor: thanks for that, is there anything else i should consider removing too?
04:52:00sam686ok, input sound?
04:52:00raptoryes
04:52:00Zoomberhey sam, didnt you used to have an upload script on your server?
04:52:00raptorZoomber: lvlchange password
04:52:00Zoomberoh, i dont have one of those, i use sam's voting system
04:52:00sam686one more problem, mouse coordinates in SDL is sometimes way off...
04:52:00raptoroh, your user password, too
04:53:00raptorsam686: the solution is to disable SDL pointer in menus
04:53:00raptori think GLUT was the same way - it has to do with opengl scaling
04:53:00ZoomberThanks!
04:53:00raptorbrb
04:53:00sam686it wasn't as bad in glut...
04:53:00raptortrue
04:54:00raptorZoomber: i suggest you use a different INI or installation folder for your dedicated server
04:54:00raptorok brb
04:55:00sam686and one more difference, GLUT in fullscreen lets me move mouse in second montor screen and move windows on top of fullscreen monitor, sometimes useful... SDL doesn't let my do that...
04:55:00Zoomberraptor: my idear here was to allow players to upload levels right to my dedicated server, without the need to go into bitfighter, (with a restart of coruse), as well as bots, and etc, but yes, that is also a good idea
05:02:00raptoryes SDL 1.2 fullscreen takes full control of the mouse - that is not something we can change
05:05:00sam686as for if you want to see my upload PHP script, it is here: http://96.2.123.136/upload3.txt (just rename .txt to .php, and create "upload" folder)
05:08:00Zoomberok
05:11:00ZoomberOooooh
05:11:00ZoomberNEAT
05:11:00Zoombermacs come with php; its just disabled by default
05:11:00Zoomberand mysql
05:11:00ZoomberHOW CONVIENENT
05:12:00raptori'm falling asleep fast - good night folks
05:12:00sam686ok..
05:12:00Zoomber(just another shout by zoomber to try and weakly convince raptor macs are actually somewhat decent operating systems)
05:12:00Zoombergoodnight
05:13:00raptorha!
05:13:00raptornight
05:13:00raptor Quit (Remote host closed the connection)
05:24:00Zoombersam686: are you there?
05:24:00sam686yes..
05:25:00Zoombermy script is simple..it says...
05:25:00Zoomber $target = "upload/";
05:25:00Zoomber $target = $target . basename( $_FILES['uploaded']['name']) ;
05:25:00Zoomber $ok=1;
05:25:00Zoomber if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target))
05:25:00Zoomber {
05:25:00Zoomber echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded"
05:25:00Zoomberbut if i try to upload something
05:26:00Zoomberit fails
05:26:00sam686what does it fail on? missing "upload" folder?
05:27:00Zoomberupload folder is present
05:27:00Zoomberi have no idea where it logs to unfortonatley
05:28:00Zoomberoh, actually, i think logging for certain stuff is turned off; better turn it off
05:28:00FlynnnWhat is running the PHP? Is it a web request, or something else?
05:28:00Zoomberon*
05:28:00Zoomberwas just using a simple upload script..
05:28:00Zoomberhere
05:29:00Zoomberhttp://bitfighter.sytes.net/
05:29:00Zoomberwhich would call upload.php to upload files to a folder i made called "upload"
05:29:00FlynnnThe echos should go to the client then
05:30:00sam686i get "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.", maybe you edited PHP to say that?
05:30:00Zoomberi get this too
05:30:00Zoomberhere is full upload.php script:
05:30:00Zoomber <?php
05:30:00Zoomber $target = "upload/";
05:30:00Zoomber $target = $target . basename( $_FILES['uploaded']['name']) ;
05:30:00Zoomber $ok=1;
05:30:00Zoomber if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target))
05:30:00Zoomber {
05:30:00Zoomber echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
05:30:00Zoomber }
05:30:00Zoomber else {
05:30:00Zoomber echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
05:30:00Zoomber }
05:30:00Zoomber ?>
05:31:00Zoomber hopes he does not get disconnected from freenode for sending 12 lines
05:32:00sam686did it actually upload the file or not?
05:32:00Zoomberoh
05:32:00Zoomberi figured out something
05:32:00Zoomberit was just a matter of permissions
05:33:00Zoomberthe upload folder must be read and writable by everyone
05:33:00Zoomberor at least process, webserviced, i think
05:33:00Zoomberwell, you can try it now, i think it works
05:34:00sam686still don't work...
05:34:00Zoombersorry, i was making edits
05:34:00Zoombernow
05:34:00Zoombershould work
05:35:00sam686seems to work now..
05:35:00sam686i send 2 pictures...
05:36:00Zoomberok
05:36:00Zoomberthats strange
05:36:00Zoomberi have both those pictures
05:36:00Zoomberin a different location
05:36:00Zoomberbut putting that aside, i got the 2 pictures
05:36:00sam686i renamed and uploaded, thinking mac have a different naming system then windows...
05:39:00sam686if you want it to be in a different location, you will need to change "upload/" to a path you want it to be.
05:39:00Zoomberyes
05:40:00Zoomberi would have to change to folder/ or if its a folder in folder, folder/folder/
05:40:00sam686and there another thing, if the file already exist, it renames adding 1 at the start of filename, maybe you don't want that?
05:40:00Zoomberfor, mac uses forwards slashes, unlike windowos
05:40:00Zoomberok, i can add a check
05:40:00sam686you could use a full path..
05:41:00sam686the check is already in php, you could make it do something else..
05:42:00Zoomberok
05:43:00Zoombermaybe its ok to have 1 before the name if they upload duplicate copy...can sort files by name in mac
05:44:00Zoomberok, can you test if http://bitupload.tk/ works for you? would appreciate it..
05:46:00sam686bitupload.tk doesn't seem to work, probably DNS errors...
05:47:00Zoomberit might take a while to work for others? it should just be a redirect to bitfighter.sytes.net....
05:53:00sam686seems to work, i guess some DNS servers don't work with some of .tk links...
05:57:00Zoomberi see
05:58:00Zoomberok, i think i have gotten an animated website icon running, but not sure. doesn't animiate on safai, but might on ie
05:58:00Zoomberhttp://bitfighter.sytes.net/
06:01:00sam686i see the green flag icon, but it does not animate on chromium, and it doesn't animate in internet explorer 8, no animations..
06:12:00Zoomberhmm
06:14:00Zoomberah ok, maybe works now?
06:15:00Zoomberyes, works now for me
06:15:00Zoomberjust not in safari
06:16:00sam686still doesn't animate, it is just green... no animation on both ie8 and no animation in chrome.
06:19:00sam686when i got your favicon.ico, it just contains 2 smalll pictures, one is 32 x 32, the other is 16 x 16... using hex editor seems to prove it...
06:19:00Flynnn Quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
06:19:00Zoomberhmmm
06:19:00Zoomberoh, should not be the ico
06:19:00Zoombershould be the giff one
06:19:00Zoomberi thought i removed the code for the ico
06:20:00Zoombermaybe your browser cached it?
06:20:00Zoomberoh...its stopped working for me too
06:23:00Zoomberok
06:23:00Zoombermaybe its because i had both icons in folder
06:23:00Zoombertry emptying cache now and try agian? if possible?
06:25:00sam686now i lose the icon in internet explorer after clearing cache
06:28:00Zoomberhmm
06:31:00sam686maybe you just need to read some of favicon in wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon#Accessibility
06:32:00Zoomberah, says our browsers cannot support animated gifs
06:32:00sam686it can, if you insert <link rel="icon" type="image/gif"
06:32:00sam686 href="http://example.com/image.gif" />
06:33:00sam686in the html, or in .php (outside the php code)
06:33:00Zoomberthats what i have done
06:34:00sam686but internet explirer won't support gif or jpg icons..
06:34:00Zoombermaybe i should just specify an absolute path instead?
06:34:00Zoomberwait, so its not possible then for ie or safari?
06:34:00sam686no, animpate gif is only for firefox and opera..
06:35:00sam686internet explorer is very limited to only favicon.ico..
06:35:00Zoomberaah
06:35:00Zoomberthats why it only is working for me
06:36:00Zoomberok, i must go, i will see you tomorrow
06:36:00Zoombergood night
06:37:00sam686ok..

18:19:00Zoomberrhello
18:19:00sam686hi
18:19:00Zoomberrhey sam, do you know where the ini file is typically? I cannot find one in my bitfighter folder
18:19:00Zoomberrnot like mac, where its always there, andc reated when run
18:19:00Zoomberrdo i need to re-download one?
18:20:00sam686for windows, should be in C:\Program Files\Bitfighter
18:20:00Zoomberrthats really odd, i dont see one]
18:20:00Zoomberrmaybe its the release i have
18:20:00Zoomberri will try running your release in normal client mode and see if it creates one
18:21:00sam686well, then just run c:/program file/bitfighter/bitfighter.exe formally and quit, and then it shoudl create .ini
18:21:00Zoomberrkk
18:22:00Zoomberrnothing
18:22:00Zoomberri guess it is making the ini file somewhere i cant find?
18:23:00sam686do you see bitfighter.ini? maybe show extentions (.ini part) might be hidden...
18:23:00Zoomberri dont see any version
18:24:00sam686did you start bitfighter.exe without shortcuts, and quit?
18:24:00Zoomberryes..
18:24:00Flynnn Quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
18:24:00sam686try pressing F5 in folder?
18:25:00Zoomberrstill not there
18:25:00Zoomberrsorry, what was the link to your openal32 file? i cant seem to get the adress right
18:25:00Zoomberryourip/openal32.dll?
18:26:00sam686./bitfighter/ then openal32 should be listed
18:27:00Zoomberrah ok, i got link wrong
18:28:00sam686you can get an empty, but written ini with http://96.2.123.136/bitfighter/bitfighter.ini
18:28:00Zoomberrok
18:29:00Zoomberrdo i need alure too? s
18:30:00Zoomberrtells me alure32.dll is also missing
18:30:00Flynnn has joined
18:30:00sam686ok, i am going to gave you alure...
18:31:00sam686http://96.2.123.136/bitfighter/alure32.zip
18:32:00Zoomberrok
18:34:00sam686in windows, you can right click empty area of bottom taskbar and "Task Manager" (or press ctrl + alt + del) and in process tab, you can end any or all bitfighter process if you want..
18:47:00Zoomberrok
18:47:00Zoomberrso i put the ini file in
18:47:00Zoomberrbut it still doesn't read it
18:47:00Zoomberri changed default and last name to zoomber, but it still says Nicknaname:Chumpchange at starutp
18:47:00Zoomberrcan i specify -inidir when i launch server?
18:48:00sam686did you start bitfighter at c:/program files/bitfighter/bitfighter.exe (without shortcut)
18:48:00Zoomberryes
18:48:00sam686i think you can put in -inidir....
18:48:00Zoomberrok that would make it perfect
18:49:00sam686or put in -rootdatadir "C:/program files/bitfighter"
18:49:00Zoomberrok
18:50:00Zoomberrisnt it C:\ not C:/?
18:50:00sam686i don't think it mattters, either way may work..
18:50:00Zoomberrok
18:51:00Zoomberrok, i have shutdown previous bitfighter servers
18:51:00Zoomberrtime to startup new oens
18:52:00Zoomberrerr
18:52:00Zoomberrit runs and everything, but no ini file hel
18:52:00Zoomberrno upload level, no voting, even though i enabled them in ini
18:53:00Zoomberrmaybe i must not only speficy rooatdatadir, btu also -inifile?
18:53:00sam686did you file, save?
18:53:00Zoomberrwait, could i just do -enablevoting on the shortcut?
18:53:00Zoomberryes i did save ini file
18:54:00sam686i guess you can try -inidir "c:/program files/bitfighter"
18:55:00Zoomberrok..
18:55:00Zoomberrdam
18:55:00Zoomberrthat still didnt work
18:55:00sam686check ini file again?
18:56:00Zoomberrhmm
18:56:00Zoomberrtype of file is a text file, but the full name including extension is still bitfighter.ini
18:56:00Zoomberrso -inidir must not do anything, ro the path is bad, because it doesn twrok
18:57:00sam686right click bitfighter.ini and properties, make sure type says "configuration file"
18:57:00sam686or "Configuration Settings"
18:57:00Zoomberrok
18:57:00Zoomberrhow do i change type?
18:58:00sam686tools, folder options, view, uncheck hide extentions of known types..
18:58:00sam686your bitfighter.ini might really be bitfighter.ini.txt...
18:59:00Zoomberrok
18:59:00Zoomberryes you are right
18:59:00sam686remove .txt part and you should be good to go..
18:59:00Zoomberrok fixed that
18:59:00Zoomberrthanks! that fixed it
19:00:00Zoomberrnow i will test again
19:01:00Zoomberrawesome
19:01:00Zoomberrits fixed now
19:01:00Zoomberrthanks for all your helop
19:01:00sam686ok
19:02:00Zoomberradminpassword is alpine, and alpine2 for servers
19:02:00Zoomberriif you want it...
19:02:00sam686ok.
19:03:00Zoomberrdoes -levels still work?
19:03:00Zoomberror is it -leveldir?
19:03:00Zoomberrif i want just a seperate level directory, but everything else same
19:04:00sam686it is -leveldir "PATH/levels" or similar..
19:04:00Zoomberrok
19:05:00Zoomberrlets see
19:08:00Zoomberris there a way to tell which bitfighter server was launched last?
19:09:00sam686probably not, you will have to sue /shutdown, or end all and restart all of it
19:09:00Zoomberrok
19:09:00sam686use, not sue..
19:09:00Zoomberrproblem is i cannt get into the two ping timed out servedrs, because they are on unforwared prots
19:10:00Zoomberrdo you mind shutting them down for me? they are the two ping timed out servers, you have admin pass right? (either alpine or alpine2)
19:10:00sam686well, just kill all "Bitfighter.exe" process in task manager...
19:10:00Zoomberrok, i will kill all 3 servers i guess
19:13:00Zoomberrsecond server launched
19:14:00Zoomberrerr..
19:14:00sam686one ping timed out...
19:14:00Zoomberryes, i dont knwo why it went to that port
19:14:00Zoomberri specified the port 28002
19:14:00sam686did you prot forward more ports?
19:15:00Zoomberr Quit (Quit: Page closed)
19:15:00sam686try /connect 127.0.0.1:28002 if it really did use port 28002..
