Yo yo Quadropolis, haven't checked out sauerworld.org yet? Let me introduce the new community website/forum! It has been around for quite some time now, but mainly only known to the competitive side of Sauer. We hope to interest some new viewers and connect with players all across the game, so be sure to check it out! We cover community news, host events, conduct interviews and more. There is also a new section strictly for mapping, called Map Discovery, which hopefully will bring some motivation to continue creating awesome maps. We've already featured rabe's map Stahlbox and had an interview with Papriko, so don't be afraid to get involved! Players from all over Sauer welcome! :D

Site: sauerworld.org

Forum: sauerworld.org/forum

IRC: #sauercom on irc.gamesurge.net

Alright, it will probably sound stupid to you all, but this has been going around in my mind recently: is there any official or generally accepted definition of the 4 cardinal directions (north, south, east west) on a map? Like, do playerstarts with direction 0 point north? Or maybe west? Which direction does the mapenlarge command expand in, other than "up"? Does it go into the south-east for example?

I mean, technically there is no compass or anything. The radar changes directions with your view. I merely wondered if a common opinion ever managed to establish.

Checking back on the site and content after 2 years of inactivity and just wondering... What happened? There is like no good content anymore. The content in highly rated section is the same from 2009. Did EVERYONE leave?

BTW: Hello old friends :) skiing penguins especially. Is Redon gone? :(

Hi,

Just thought of sharing this with you guys here. This is my experimental port/integration of Anttweakbar with Sauerbraten. Anttweakbar is a simple GUI framework and supports SDL events. Quake2World free standalone also uses Anttweakbar for graphical menus and servers list.

Still a work in progress, screenshot for now.

cheers.

Anttweakbar project site:

Exasperation intensifies

I've never been so disgusted by a group of people in this game in any of my 8 years of playing. I'm so sick of some players acting like they completely comprehend a community that has been altered over the course of many years and target a certain group ("old players") as the cause for it's deteriorating quality, without actually playing the game for as long as the people he/she so criticizes.

eihrul = I rule?

Okay, think about this: in the german language, "ei" is pronounced like the word "eye" or simply the word/letter I. Why german? Well, I am a native german speaker.
Also, a more valid reason is this: Sauerbraten is a german dish. Literally translated it means "sour roast", so I think using german pronounciation is a legit assumption.
The second thing is that in german, the "U" can be pronounced in different ways, for example like the "OO" in some words. Examples for the pronounciation I mean would be "cool" or "mule".

Taking both together, it would mean that "eihrul" sounds like "I rule". Coincidence? I think not.

Eihrul is AFAIK the current lead developer of Sauerbraten and Tesseract. Eihrul hosts important Cube2 sites, for example sauerbraten.org. Eihrul is the one who is responsible for the global authcodes. Eihrul hosts the masterserver.
If he wanted, he could have a tremendous impact on the community.
That all means that eihrul indeed rules. Perhaps his nick was meant to reflect that?

Is there a way to stop sauerbraten from creating .BAK-files?
Or can you make it spam the .BAK-files to a certain folder?
If yes, how?

Hi all . . . i was wondering . . Can a teamspeak be implemented into sauerbraten? . . It will be grait to speak to your team rather then typing all the time

There wasn't a general poll made this month, and this is a topic I've wanted to discuss for a while, so here goes:

Over time, Quadropolis has become focused on higher and higher quality maps and content as the game has become more improved and user skills have increased. Although I wasn't around at the start, looking back at the oldest maps on the sites shows a community with a bit more wild experimentation. A lot of early maps are a lot like "Hey I made a cool thing" rather than elaborate polished maps. I'm not saying that was necessarily better, but it was different.

Personally, as my mapping skill has increased, I've made quite a few maps that I finished, then moved on to another and never published, meaning to come back and fine-tune it a bit. Others I finished despite them having a couple of flaws inherent to the design that couldn't be removed, and thus could never be part of a release. I feel that it could have been some benefit to the community had I posted these maps, if only to inspire some small part of someone else's work later.

Are maps like this something other people want to see more of on Quadropolis?

The obsolete tag

When items are tagged with "obsolete" it reads as follows:

"This content is compatible with older edition(s) of the game it was made for, and not guaranteed to work with the current or development versions."

this is actually bad grammar it should read like on of the following:

"This content was made for older edition(s) of the game, and not guaranteed to work with the current or development versions."

"This content is compatible with older edition(s) of the game, and not guaranteed to work with the current or development versions."

"This content is not guaranteed to work, because it was made for older edition(s) of the game."

Just wanted to point that out
