Spring RTS Engine

I've made a PR with a few changes.

new version out! You can download it here . Also available through the "metalfactions:stable" rapid tag, and by joining the nebula game rooms on the official server. Stuff happening... https://springrts.com/phpbb/download/file.php?mode=view&id=11410 2021/06/04 ------------------ NOTES ...

The server-side code would need to reply with all matches not just the top 10. Atm one can narrow down the search by adding more key words and using "*". Perhaps the client side code should replace spaces with "*".

I agree with the "size in MB" too.

PR "soon".

Ok, but those quotes are from 2008.That's over 13 years ago. I'm pretty sure that today, most of the people quoted would either be nicer or at least refrain from posting. The fact that Forb hated on TA-derived works in the past doesn't imply that the contributions to BA 10 were done with bad intent....

Map looks very nice, and should also play nice, Thanks!

issues :
- uneven metal amounts: a lot of spots are off by about ~5% compared to their symmetrical counterpart
- one of the south-eastern start positions is wrongly set to northeast

1) Metal Factions (playerbase: over 9...thousand) 2) Preserve player base. I can change to the newer version at a later stage. Players with decade-old toasters or low end laptops will eventually upgrade in a few years 3) Depends on how significant the gains are and the difficulty of implementation 4...

minor nitpick : why not "105.0 -> 106.0 -> 107.0" instead of "105.0 -> 105.1 -> 106.0"?

on MF we can't switch to either BAR or develop engines as some players don't meet the GL4 requirement yet. Either way, it seems to me that the best course of action would be to move/rename the currently inactive develop branch and merge the BAR branch's code into the new develop branch. The maintena...

The server was unavailable for about 12 hours between sunday afternoon and monday morning GMT.

It's back now, but what happened?

Thanks!

So we'd need to change the move defs as well.

Thanks :)

Use this site to compare various GPUs https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/ example https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/GeForce-GT-640-vs-GeForce-GTX-1650-SUPER/1432vs4167 to play spring games comfortably, I wouldn't use any GPU with an average G3D Mark below 5K. With 2K or less you'll get belo...

Nice work, it seems to be working fine.

I notice it being faster too.

The two posts above could be turned into something more friendly.

Congratulations to Ares for now being the official carrier of the BA dev torch!

Did you read the posts by Master-Athmos https://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=597268#p597268 and his old threads? The hate he got when annoucing his game did not come from TA-players. It was the "other" gamedevelopers. I doubt this. I don't get that information from his actual post....

Hoi: (...) I really think 3do model support should be removed for the future. The people who disagree say their games will not be playable (ignoring the fact that there will be convertors available to convert the 3do's into s3o's, and nobody is just going to remove 3do without a viable alternative)...

perhaps we don't need hundreds of texture atlases. maybe there's a way to "trick" the converter to generate an atlas that's the same for every unit, like temporarily adding to it a piece with hundreds of faces, one with each texture, then removing it after the conversion is done. This woul...
