00:00:14Watusimotocan anyone confirm this text is correct?
00:00:23Watusimoto Note that if your QuickChat message starts with a '/', that message will be passed to the command processor
00:00:23Watusimoto just as if you typed it directly. For example, if you define a QuickChat message to be '/addbot' (without qoutes),
00:00:23Watusimoto a robot player will be added to the game when you press the assigned key combination.
00:00:45raptori think that is incorrect
00:00:55Watusimotohow so?
00:01:00raptori think you say it is a command, then define it as just 'addbots'
00:01:07raptordouble checking...
00:01:39raptorsee here: http://bitfighter.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=16237#p16237
00:02:24raptorthe 'MessageType=command' makes it so it is put directly to the command processor (no needing the '/')
00:02:54Watusimotointeresting....
00:03:06WatusimotoI should look to see how this is coded
00:07:39WatusimotoNote that if your QuickChat message is a /command, that command will be executed when you press the assigned key combo.
00:07:39WatusimotoFor example, if you define a QuickChat message to be 'addbots 2' (without quotes, and without a slash), 2 robots will
00:07:39Watusimotobe added to the game when you press the appropriate keys. You can use this functionality to assign commonly
00:07:39Watusimotoused commands to joystick buttons or short keyboard sequences.
00:10:17Watusimotointeresting
00:11:23Watusimotook, this text is wrong
00:11:25Watusimotohold on
00:12:20raptori'm honestly ignorant of the whole quick chat stuff - i haven't ever touched teh code
00:12:31raptor(that I remember)
00:19:04Watusimoto Note that you can also use the QuickChat functionality to create shortcuts to commonly run
00:19:04Watusimoto /commands by setting the MessageType to \"Command\". For example, if you define a QuickChat
00:19:04Watusimoto message to be \"addbots 2\"" (without quotes, and without a slash), and the MessageType to
00:19:04Watusimoto \"Command\" (also without quotes) 2 robots will be added to the game when you press the
00:19:04Watusimoto appropriate keys. You can use this functionality to assign commonly used commands to joystick
00:19:05Watusimoto buttons or short keyboard sequences.
00:19:16Watusimotothe content is correct. does it read properly?
00:19:27WatusimotoI'm too tired to trust myself here :-)
00:20:11raptorlower-case 'command' for messagetype
00:20:24Watusimotoit's actually case insensitive
00:20:25raptorunless it is case-insensitive in the code
00:20:26raptorok
00:20:43Watusimotoand that capitilizatin is conssistent with other comments in the header
00:20:54raptoradd a comma befre '2 robots' ?
00:21:12Watusimotoyes
00:21:14raptor other than that, it reads properly
00:21:20raptorto me :)
00:28:34WatusimotoWe really need to pare the default QuickChat message set down to something useful
00:28:59WatusimotoMaybe 10 or 20 messages that someone might actually use, instead of 100 that are overwhelming
00:29:00raptoryou mean come up with new messages?
00:29:05Watusimotoyes
00:29:06raptorah yes
00:29:10Watusimotoa much abbreviated list
00:29:27Watusimotothis would be a perfect task for a community member to do
00:29:52raptoryes! delegate the tedium!
00:32:31raptorok, i'm heading home... weekend testing ahead?
00:33:09Watusimotoor bugfixing?
00:33:15raptoryes
00:33:19raptorthat's what i meant

14:11:53raptorhi Watusimoto
14:11:59Watusimotohi
14:12:18WatusimotoI fixed up your badge a tiny bit
14:12:37raptorok
14:12:47raptoralso, this addition crashes the game for me now: http://pastie.org/5355958
14:12:51raptorand i cannot figure out why
14:14:40raptorthat's it! just the new profile crashes the game for me. stack trace makes no sense to me: http://pastie.org/5355965
14:17:05Wuzzywell that's strange
14:17:18Watusimotoobviusly doesn't like destroying joystick
14:17:26WatusimotojoystickINfo that is
14:17:29raptorit's so bonkers
14:17:35raptorbeen staring at this for an hour..
14:18:06Watusimotobut it shows a vector being destroyed, and there isn't one in jsinfo
14:18:59raptoryeah - the crash is on the closing brace in that function
14:19:20Watusimotomaybe one of the string vectors???
14:19:26Watusimotothat's created in the fn?
14:19:30raptorthat's what i've been looking at
14:20:21raptorthe dev badge looks neat, but maybe a little cramped
14:20:24Watusimotostack trace suggests vector<string>
14:20:36Watusimotocramped?
14:20:41Watusimotoi.e. uses too much space?
14:20:45Watusimotowe could reduce diameter slightly
14:21:10WuzzyI don't understand what just happened. I can't reproduce this; on my machine this profile does not cause a crash.
14:21:13Watusimotook, maybe it's a particular string it objects to
14:21:24Watusimotodid you do a clean rebuild raptor?
14:21:36raptorWuzzy: this is on the development build of bitfighter
14:21:40raptorso no need to worry
14:21:55raptorWatusimoto: yes (3-4 times!)
14:22:02Watusimototry doing a buttonKeyNames.clear()
14:22:02raptorcramped: http://sam6.25u.com/upload/4screenshot_1.png
14:22:07Wuzzyah! okay
14:22:16Watusimotoand also for the other string vector before that terminal }
14:22:29Watusimotoget all your vectors handled and see if that narrows down the issue
14:23:23Watusimotowhat happened to your walls???
14:23:29Watusimotoscreenshot is whack
14:23:40raptoryeah... haha
14:23:43raptori just noticed that
14:23:44raptoruhhh
14:23:48raptorlibpng fail?
14:24:04raptorwasn't like that in-game
14:24:16raptormust be double buffer issue with screenshots
14:25:13raptorsectionKeys.clear() is now crashing
14:25:16raptorinteresing...
14:25:38Watusimotogood... narrows it down
14:26:40Watusimototry looping through that vec and erasing one by one
14:26:49Watusimotomaybe printing the key before you erase
14:32:31raptorhmmm... loads of nulls
14:34:31Watusimotonulls? these are strings, not c-strings
14:34:39Watusimotodo you mean empty strings?
14:34:46raptorhave to print out c_str() with logprint
14:36:49raptorwithout profile: http://pastie.org/5356051
14:37:19raptorwith profile: http://pastie.org/5356054
14:37:22raptorso weir
14:37:23raptord
14:38:50raptori wonder if there is a but in the INI parser
14:38:53raptorbug
14:46:37Watusimotook, those nulls are bad news
14:46:48Watusimotoand are almost certainly your problem
14:47:44Watusimotoso in GetAllKeys try printing out the keys as they get added, and maybe the total length of the vector
14:49:05raptoryeah, it's the last profile that is filling up with all of those...
14:49:27raptori wonder if there is a funky byte somewhere in the text..
14:57:18Watusimotothat shouldn't cause a problem
14:57:37Watusimotocan you see which item is the last valid one?
15:00:37raptorhmmm... the INI has parsed the section fine..
15:01:35raptorall the sectionKeys are fine after the parsing..
15:03:19raptorheh
15:03:25raptori think i found it... verifying
15:05:44raptorhaha
15:10:35raptorlook at line 35: http://pastie.org/5355958
15:10:38raptornotice anything?
15:18:04WatusimotoDPag
15:18:06Watusimotobut
15:18:09raptorheh
15:18:11Watusimotothat shouldn't crash the game
15:18:12raptoryep
15:18:15raptoroh it doeds
15:18:17raptordoes
15:18:22Watusimotowhy???
15:18:45raptorbecause we set up an array of size MaxJoystickButtons
15:18:45Watusimotowe should also probably check for valid values and warn if something looks bogus
15:19:04Watusimotoand overrun that?
15:19:11raptorand if it is misspelled, it returns ButtonUnknown
15:19:24raptorwhich is in the same enum, but 1 more than Max
15:19:38raptorso if max buttons is 16
15:19:44raptorit tries to insert at 17
15:23:13Watusimotobad idea!
15:26:41raptorok, well, it's now more robust

15:26:43BFLogBot Commit: 4bc4ce9f7f53 | Author: buckyballreaction | Message: Add in Firestorm Dual Analog 3 joystick profile
15:28:18Watusimotowhat do you do if you find an invalid key? (dpag?)
15:28:30raptorprint a message and move on
15:28:41raptorno crashing
15:28:58Watusimotono crashing == good!
15:29:03raptorhehe, yes
15:29:07Watusimotoshould we pop up a warning box?
15:29:24raptorit prints to the console now...
15:29:28Watusimotochances are, it will only hit this problem right after someone has been messing with their file
15:29:40raptorinteresting you mention warning box - SDL2 just added that to its API
15:29:41Watusimotoand they'd want to know if they b0rked it
15:31:20raptormight be good, but that brings up the greater question: do we want other logprints to go to a message box?
15:31:32Little_Apple has joined
15:31:37Little_Applehelloo
15:31:43raptorhi
15:31:51WatusimotoFor serious conditions, I think we should warn
15:32:02Watusimotoan invalid level item might not merit it
15:32:12Little_Appleok so i got virtualbox
15:32:16Watusimotobut a broken js config might
15:32:22Little_Appleand made a virtual machine...
15:32:33Watusimotojust thinking aloud
15:33:02Little_Appleand i completely interrupted so ill shut up.
15:36:53raptorhi
15:37:57raptorWatusimoto: would we want an in-game red warning box (with our UI)? or a new directive to send logprintf to another type of message box for critical things
15:38:18Watusimotothat's an interesting question
15:38:59Watusimotowhat sorts of things are critical?
15:39:06Watusimotoa buggered configuration
15:39:07raptorexactly
15:39:11raptoryes
15:39:38Watusimotono connection to the master??
15:39:49raptorthat has a red box already...
15:39:52Watusimotono levels when hosting
15:39:57raptorred box
15:40:24Watusimotoright; so I'm thinking this should be a red error box too
15:40:43raptorhmm
15:41:18Watusimoto"the blah blah joystick configuration is b0rked. Pleaes fix it (in js.ini) to avoid seeing this message again. The js will be disabled until this is fixed."
15:41:22Watusimotoor something
15:41:51raptorok
15:42:02Watusimotothat seems a good red error box think
15:42:10raptoryes
15:42:13raptori'll have to work on it later... leaving for a few hours now
15:42:18raptorLittle_Apple: question?
15:42:23Watusimotoit will only trigger when something has gone wrong that is the players falut
15:42:47Little_Appleyea raptor i got virtualbox made a virtual machine aaaand i dont know where to go from there
15:43:02raptorLittle_Apple: you want to install Linux, right?
15:43:11raptorWatusimoto: i'll write it down
15:43:17Watusimoto:-)
15:43:19Little_Appleim guessing i ave to download linux for the virtual machine
15:43:42raptorLittle_Apple: yes. OK. you need to pick a linux distribution to install and download the relevant ISO
15:43:57Little_Appleokaaaaayyyy
15:44:34raptoras you enter the world of Linux, you turn a corner and get eaten by a grue
15:44:49Little_Appleor a sea lion
15:44:52raptorLittle_Apple: there are dozens of linux distributions to choose from
15:45:23Little_Applegot one
15:45:24Little_Applei think
15:45:26raptori have a bias towards openSUSE, but you may want to choose an ubuntu derivative since those are the most popular right now
15:45:32raptorLittle_Apple: which one?
15:45:45raptori was going to suggest this: http://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
15:46:00Little_Applelinux 2.6...
15:46:05Little_Applesomething like that
15:46:07raptorget the MATE 32bit version
15:46:09raptorheh
15:46:10Little_Applei have no idea what im doing...
15:46:13raptorok
15:46:28raptorjust get the ISO file from that link i posted above
15:46:44Little_Applek
15:47:23raptorhere is a more direct link: http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=103
15:47:36raptorchoose a USA mirror to download from
15:47:50Little_Appleyea i got one
15:48:01raptorthe file you download should be something like: linuxmint-13-mate-dvd-32bit.iso
15:48:08Little_Appleyea
15:48:08raptorit's probably big
15:48:12Little_Applesomething like that..
15:48:17Little_Appleyep its big
15:48:28raptoryou will use that to boot in your virtualbox machine
15:48:36Little_Applealrighty
15:48:38raptorand with that... i need to split!
15:48:41raptorbe back latersz

19:42:30Fordcarshellloooooo
19:43:05FordcarsI need help! Is there anyway I can mount a partition of an sd card which is ext2?
19:48:48raptor has joined
19:48:49ChanServ sets mode +o raptor
19:49:09raptorFordcars: yes there is, what system do you want to mount it on?
19:53:05Fordcarsmac or windows. I tried one driver on mac but it was read only, then I tried a read and write on mac but didn't work.
19:53:36FordcarsI tried one on windows but it didn't work with partitions
19:54:04FordcarsI am too lazy to install linux just to drag a file on the sd card
19:55:37raptorare you comfortable with the command line?
19:55:44Fordcarsyes
19:56:09raptorthis is a windows driver that i know works: http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html
19:56:14raptorlet me see about mac
19:56:22raptorit's been a while since i've done it on mac..
19:56:34Fordcarsyes that is the driver I had
19:56:45raptorwas it read only?
19:56:55FordcarsIt says it doesn't work because ext2 is on the second partion
19:57:01raptorah
19:57:08raptorwell it is an old one, hmm....
19:57:23FordcarsIt is supposed to be read and write I think
19:57:35raptoryes it is
19:57:40raptorwell that stinks..
19:57:51raptorand you don't happen to have a linux VM?
19:58:21FordcarsThere is only 1 driver that worked on mac. It worked really well I installed it and then the partion just showed up on my desktop but you couldn't write
19:58:50FordcarsWell you could only force write which wasn't recommended
19:58:55raptorwell, how big is the drive?
19:58:58raptorerr sd card
19:59:06Fordcars1 gb
19:59:48raptoryou installed MacFUSE?
20:00:04Fordcarsthe normal FAT partition that does show up is 256mb and the ext2 partition is 600mb or something
20:00:29Fordcarsyes I already had macfuse. The driver that worked was a driver for macfuse
20:01:20raptorhmmm
20:01:23raptorfuse-ext2?
20:02:03raptorhere are good instructions to make it read/write: http://www.thewireframecommunity.com/node/174
20:02:04Fordcarsyes
20:02:17Fordcarsthe one I tried but you need to force write
20:02:39raptormake sure everything is unmounted first, then alter that automount script
20:02:46raptorin those directiosn from above
20:02:49raptor*directions
20:03:31Fordcarsbut will it make the partition stop working in linux?
20:03:47raptorit shouldn't
20:03:54Fordcarslinux is not connected to the internet
20:03:55raptorunless you alter the partition table
20:04:05Fordcarsok I will try
20:05:32Fordcars_ has joined
20:06:10Fordcars_Uhhh I just changed computer can you send the pag agin?

20:06:31Fordcars_ok thank you!
20:06:35Fordcars_ Quit (Client Quit)
20:09:07raptorhi Little_Apple, how goes your VM research?
20:09:21Little_Applei stubbed my face
20:09:30raptorthat must look.... funny
20:09:45Little_Appleyep. lots of blood.
20:09:53raptorso tasty, too?
20:10:03Little_Appleokok what do
20:10:49raptor2 + 2 equal?
20:10:52raptor5
20:10:59Little_AppleYEP
20:12:05Little_Appleso how do i use the OS with virtualbox?
20:12:29raptorok, have you 'built' a VM
20:12:31raptor?
20:12:36raptorand does it have a CD drive?
20:12:42Little_Appleim building one now
20:12:44Fordcarsok so how am I supposed to open an .fs file? It just shows up as an opengl shader builder file.
20:13:06Little_Applewhat version of linux should i have it run…..
20:13:23Little_Apple?
20:13:30raptorFordcars: you may need to open a text editor first, then browse to the file to open
20:13:36raptorLittle_Apple: what are your choices?
20:14:00Little_Applea lot.
20:14:08Little_Applebut i mean if i want it to run the one i downloaded
20:14:11raptoris there one for ubuntu?
20:14:13raptoror mint?
20:14:16Little_Appleyep
20:14:22raptoryou downloaded mint 13
20:14:27Little_Appleyea
20:14:35Little_Applewould ubuntu work?
20:14:38raptorwhich is a red-headed step-child of ubunu
20:14:42raptorubuntu
20:14:47Little_Appleok
20:15:06raptorso ubuntu should work... unless you need to categorize it by version
20:15:17FordcarsI tried to open in text editor but I can't open. uhhh oh I have to open .fs with windows?
20:15:43raptornono
20:16:00raptorso
20:16:02raptorok
20:16:08Little_Appleok what do
20:16:29raptorFordcars: you have to use the sudo nano.... command given in that link
20:16:34raptorbecause it's a system file
20:16:43Fordcarsooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

20:17:14Little_Appleraptor?
20:17:18raptoryes Little_Apple
20:17:24Little_Applewhat next?
20:17:28Little_Applei made the V<
20:17:29Little_AppleVM
20:17:35raptordoes it have a cd drive?
20:17:42Little_Appleyep
20:17:46Little_Applei think
20:17:47raptorFordcars: if you need help with nano: http://www.tuxradar.com/content/text-editing-nano-made-easy
20:17:57raptorscroll down to 'nano cheat sheet'
20:18:39raptorLittle_Apple: you have to set the cd drive to that ISO you downloaded
20:18:50raptorand to 'mount on startup'
20:19:02raptorthen run the vm!
20:19:03Little_Appleok one second..
20:19:18raptorit takes a little figuring out
20:20:43Little_Applethe cd drive is in storage right?
20:20:52raptoryes
20:21:07Little_Appleok how do i have it run my os...
20:21:31raptorthere's usually a big play/launch button somewhere
20:21:43Little_Applei mean how do i get it so it will run it
20:21:46Little_Applenot actually run it
20:21:58Little_Applelike load the OS
20:21:58raptorplease be more grammatically specific
20:22:03raptorok
20:22:18raptorso
20:22:22raptoryou know how to start the VM?
20:22:26Little_Appleyea...
20:22:35raptorand did you set the CD drive to that ISO file you downloaded?
20:22:36Little_Applethe green arrow thing
20:22:42Little_Applehow do
20:23:28raptorthere are settings for the CD drive, you have to look for something that would use a file instead of a drive
20:23:39Little_Appleok….
20:24:33Little_Applewait what..
20:24:49Little_Applehuah
20:24:58Little_Applehaauuuhhhh
20:25:53raptor wonders if there is an animal in the room
20:26:14Fordcarsok so uh I just replaced the line.
20:27:22Little_Appleummm halp?
20:27:31raptorFordcars: yay!
20:27:57raptorLittle_Apple: something like this: https://encrypted.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=virtual%20box%20boot%20iso&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CC0QtwIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DN9f8tMAZEwc&ei=x7ieUILaM5G6qQGn0YHYDA&usg=AFQjCNG6FokAokcsl4W0Vq_D5mXI508BeQ

20:28:46raptorFordcars: now make sure everything is unmounted/removed, then plug it back in and it should be r/w
20:31:41Fordcarshaha ok little_apple you booting ISO on VirtualBox?
20:31:57Little_Applei cant find the file...
20:32:07Little_Applethis in app search thing is horrible...
20:32:30Fordcarseuh raptor do I save or just quit terminal
20:32:35raptorLittle_Apple: that means you need to acquire a basic understanding of file systems
20:32:42raptorFordcars: save
20:32:46raptorthen exit
20:33:11raptorctrl+O saves
20:33:21Fordcarsits not in nano cheat
20:33:23raptorctrl + x exits
20:33:33raptoryeah, sorry... i had to figure that out...
20:33:46Fordcarsoh haha uhh yes it is ok
20:34:13Fordcars0oO0

20:44:46Little_Appleok this apple is out. peese.
20:44:48FordcarsI am trying to get linux working too, well Bitfighter on linux which there aren't anyway to get it connected to the internet

20:44:58Fordcarsappend?
20:45:01raptorsure
20:45:09Fordcarsok
20:45:16Linux_Appleok how get linux bitfighter
20:45:17raptormaybe i should figure out how to use a different stupid editor in mac for you...
20:45:36raptorLinux_Apple: are you running it off of the ISO file? or did you install the whole system to the virual disk?
20:45:38raptor*virtual
20:45:45Linux_Applethe iso i think
20:46:05Linux_Applethere is an installation option on the vm's desktop though
20:46:17raptoryeah, do that, then you'll have a system you can edit
20:46:25raptorand you can boot without the ISO
20:46:25Linux_Appleok
20:46:38raptorFordcars: then just exit after appending
20:46:38Linux_Appleim gonna have to do this with windows...
20:46:52raptorLinux_Apple: you can copy your virual machine to windows
20:46:56raptoror just start anew
20:47:13Linux_Applewould i have to buy a version of windows?
20:47:16Fordcarsohhh I can just over write the file
20:47:22raptorLinux_Apple: oh
20:47:24raptoruhhh
20:47:26Fordcarswell save the file
20:47:27raptormaybe
20:47:30Linux_Appleor torrent it :3
20:47:57Fordcarshe has windows but he dosn't have windows?
20:48:07raptorif you have an old version of windows XP you can use the key with it, but windows vista/7/8 are locked, more or less, to the hardware
20:48:22raptorhi Watusimoto
20:48:28Fordcarsok so when I save how do I choose cancel?
20:48:43Linux_Appleis pirating an option? :D
20:48:51raptorWatusimoto: can the ErrorMessageUserInterface be invoked from anywhere?
20:49:07FordcarsI already got Windows xp running on my PPC mac that was quite fun
20:49:23raptorLinux_Apple: yes, of course, but not always a smart one
20:49:26Watusimoto hi
20:49:29Linux_Appleaha
20:49:46Fordcarsok so how do I choose append or cancel it justs writes it in a line
20:49:50Watusimotoraptor: yes, i think so
20:49:57Linux_Appleis there a free/legal way to get xp?
20:50:11Watusimotowhat you do is make it the current ui, and when you quit it, the previously current ui becomes current again
20:50:30Watusimotothere are plenty of examples; just follow oine fo those
20:50:31raptorLinux_Apple: use an old copy, or find a friend with one that they're not using anymore
20:50:34Watusimotono free xp
20:50:36raptorWatusimoto: ok
20:50:40Linux_Applebah humbug
20:50:44Watusimotowant legal xp, buy one on ebay
20:50:47Watusimotoshould be cheap
20:51:06Linux_Applechecking.
20:51:41Watusimototrying to figure out flickering soccer ball isseu
20:51:49Watusimotoevery second frame, soccer ball is not drawn
20:51:51raptorXP in a VM is the only way to go now... so you can revert once you get the viruses..
20:51:52Watusimotoreally odd
20:52:04Watusimotoha
20:53:11Linux_Appleew this web browser uses yahoo...
20:54:41Fordcarsok uh please raptor go check my post technical discussion
20:55:08FordcarsWAIT! Well I think I know
20:55:36Linux_Appledownloading ubuntu..
20:55:44Linux_Appleand im gone.
20:55:48Linux_Apple Quit (Quit: Page closed)
20:56:42raptorFordcars: soo... you figured it out?
20:58:04FordcarsYes sorry! uh I forgot to check out that nano cheat. So I saved and exit and quit
20:58:11Fordcarslets test it out
20:58:14raptorha
20:58:18raptorok, i'll delete post
21:05:07Fordcarsok sorry!
21:06:00raptorWatusimoto: i'm having trouble deciding where to put the message: loadJoystickPresets() are loaded before the VideoSystem in main.cpp
21:06:00Fordcarsso I just dragged bitfighter in root, adn ejected both partitions, its long to eject
21:06:35WatusimotoI see two possibilities
21:06:38Watusimotothree possibilities
21:06:49raptormaybe I'll need to cache the error(s) and show it later
21:06:52Watusimoto1) set a flag and show the error after video system is inited
21:07:04Watusimoto2) load video system first
21:07:19Watusimoto3) use SDL error box and leave it at that
21:07:38Watusimotowhat is the proper action if the js is b0rked? continue with game, or exit?
21:08:14raptorwell, i could put the segfault back...
21:09:08Watusimotothat sounds good
21:09:28Watusimotomaybe just add a message "sorry your computer is corrupt. please reinstall your operating system."
21:09:33raptorit's just a preset
21:09:43raptorsoo continue
21:09:48Watusimotook
21:09:53raptorbitfighter as a virus
21:09:59Watusimotothere we go
21:10:09Watusimotook, so then either 1 or 2
21:10:30Watusimoto2 seems cleaner, but there may be reasons why things load in the order they do
21:10:49Watusimotolike if video needs something that hasn;t loaded yet
21:11:08raptorvideo is dependent on lots
21:11:12Watusimotoyes
21:12:09Watusimotoso if 2 is not feasible, we're left with 1
21:12:23Fordcarsok so uh my computer crashed
21:12:37Fordcarswhen I ejected
21:12:46raptoryay!
21:12:53raptornow you can try from a fresh system!
21:13:00Watusimotolinux mint
21:13:02Fordcarsthanks for your support
21:13:04raptor:)
21:13:23Fordcarsso yeah now what
21:13:26raptorFordcars: and this was mac?
21:13:28FordcarsI am starting up
21:13:32Fordcarsyes
21:13:45raptorhuh - i didn't think mac would crash that hard...
21:13:52raptorthat takes some special skill
21:15:50Fordcarswell It still worked but the dock crashed and I couldn't shutdown, log out or restart finder.
21:16:13raptoramazing!
21:16:25raptori'd just restart, stick in the sdcard and try to write to it..

21:18:06Little_Applei come seeking help
21:18:52Little_Applehow i change screen size
21:19:21raptorafter the VM has booted up, just change the desktop size in the system
21:19:32Little_Appletried that...
21:19:49Little_Appleusing ubuntu
21:19:55raptorwhy not mint?
21:20:11Little_Appleim trying to see if i can get steam for linux working
21:20:28raptormint 13 = ubuntu 12.04
21:20:46Little_Applecanijustdodis?
21:21:08FordcarsI plugged sd card back in, the file was transfered. When I like ejected it it bugged because of macfuse and it as saying that the ext2 partition couldn't eject so I ejected it manually
21:21:23sam686i don't think steam would work too well on linux, does it? even if it does, there is very little games on linux compared to windows
21:21:27Fordcarsit was saying it was in use
21:21:42Little_Applethey have a beta for linux
21:21:45Fordcarsthere is Bitfighter!
21:21:57Little_AppleHOW I CHANGE SCREEN SIZE
21:22:58raptorLittle_Apple: welcome to linux!
21:23:14Little_Applelinux: the OS where you cant change the screen size
21:23:17raptornobody knows how to change the screensize because it's different on every linux distro!
21:23:24Little_Appleheck yea ubuntu has google
21:23:31raptorLittle_Apple: you will have to go look it up yourself
21:23:54sam686if you tring to change screen size in virtualbox, you might need to install an up-to-date guest additions..
21:25:04FordcarsDoes linux uh mint hve a GUI or is it text based?
21:25:37Little_Appleok using mint again..
21:25:50sam686maybe you can look at this: http://www.google.com/search?q=virtualbox+linux+change+screen+size

21:32:30FordcarsYAY! I managed to sort things now! Now I actually can read and write ext2 and I managed to replace the file I put on the sd card just to make sure it was ok and when I ejected it didn't crash
21:32:43raptorgreat!
21:33:08Fordcarsnow lets uh try booting my old wii on linux
21:33:22Fordcarsyes it actually was for my old wii

22:36:40fordcars__ has joined
22:36:44sam686umm, linux on wii? wii only has 88 MB memory. i think
22:37:14fordcars__yeah it's slow
22:37:31fordcars__what is the command to install .deb
22:38:15sam686what are you trying to install? on which distribution of linux?
22:38:42fordcars__bitfighter on debian
22:39:02fordcars__but I'm not sure if it will work
22:40:03sam686did you try some instruction here? http://bitfighter.org/wiki/index.php/Building_Bitfighter#Linux (Ubuntu and Debian appear to have the same apt-get)
22:41:59fordcars__uhh I just wanted to make the app work, and linux isn't connected to the internet
22:43:07fordcars__I tried apt-get install bitfighter and it says it cant find it
22:43:54fordcars__I have bitfighter_013e_i386.deb
22:44:29sam686http://www.google.com/search?q=install+a+.deb+debian
22:44:58sam686but it might need more packages that bitfighter needs, i think
22:49:36Watusimotosam686 and raptor: quick question to make sure my thinking is straight
22:49:54Watusimotoon the server, we only care about actual position -- render pos is irrelevant
22:50:19Watusimotoon the client, for drawing and collsion purposes, we only care about render pos
22:50:45sam686Fordcars: Wii has built in wireless, but may need to set up on linux, try looking for some info about it: http://www.google.com/search?q=linux+wii+wireless+connect+help
22:50:59Watusimotoactualpos is, on the client, more of an aspirational state; but its only purpose is to describe what the renderstate _should_ be
22:51:05Watusimotois that more or less correct?
22:51:35Watusimotoand therefore, is it fair to conclude, that in the database, we want to store the actualpos on the server, and the renderpos on the client?
22:52:09sam686Watusimoto, i think on client side uses both render and actualPos, so RenderPos can slowly move to ActualPos, instead of awful jumpy moving objects.
22:52:32Watusimotoyes, but we never render actualpos, nor do any collision detection with it
22:52:34Watusimotoright?
22:53:09Watusimotoso we need to track each object's actualpos, but we only use it to adjust renderPos, never directly
22:53:09sam686but yes you right about server side not using RenderPos for almost nothing.. but I think it always do collisionDetection on actualPos
22:54:02fordcars__wii has wi-fi but since I have a newer wii, linux is running after Wiis normal os so it can't connect to the internet
22:54:07sam686it doesn't make sense to make renderPos not able to go to actualPos just because a wall is in the way, then cause incorrect rendering position..
22:54:51sam686will go, will be back one hour
22:54:58WatusimotoI think walls renderstate alwayus = actualstate
22:55:03Watusimotolater!
