i have installed spring on my ubuntu fiesty distribution but have not found a single way to play a single player game for practise. ANYTHING will do....i tried aflobby but for some reason the single player option is grayed out.... i would rather not use wine but if thats the only solution then fine

Its greyed out because the singleplayer view has yet to be implemented,

Harsh AF. You make posts like this
http://spring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=10237
and then troll someone seeking help with your own lobby and spring in general. I'm thinking of a word right now, it starts with a H.
@storky
The .debs come with two AIs that allow for simple single player; KAI and AAI. Have you installed any maps or mods yet as detailed by this guide, which I assumed you have followed to this point?
http://spring.clan-sy.com/wiki/SetupGuide
Try installing this mod and map that are compatible with the above AIs:
Map:
http://spring.unknown-files.net/file/2107/Mars/
Leave it in its sdz/7 format and place in ~/.spring/maps
Mod:
http://spring.unknown-files.net/file/29 ... ation_5.3/
Leave it in its sdz/7 format and place in ~/.spring/mods
Side note: Also, make sure you have have the OTA content for that particular mod, I don't think those default AIs work with the most recent versions of the non-TA mods. I must mention that to use this content "
legally" you need to own a copy of Total Annihilation, although
nobody would really care if you didn't.
Code: Select all
wget http://ipxserver.dyndns.org/games/spring/mods/xta/base-ota-content.zip
unzip -d ~/.spring/base base-ota-content.zip
Then launch spring either by going to the applications menu>games>spring or by a simple terminal command "spring", without quotation marks. Then you with be greeted by a menu; pick the GlobalAI Test (AAI)/(KAI); pick mars; then pick the mod.
Also, AF.... >.>.... should be releasing a working version of AFlobby to allow multilayer with with other Linux players and the established windows community very soon.

Just to let you guys know, I've started working on a Python/GTK-based single-player frontend. I should have some screenshots within a day or 2. Features will include, but not be limited to, win/loss tracking, favorate map tracking, automatic difficulty adjustment, and a GUI Settings adjustment.
Does anyone have any suggestions/reccomendations for this?

So, yet another 'Lobby'... What do we have already? TASClient, Omni, UnityLobby, the UnityLobby rewrite (never released), AFLobby, some lobby in C# (can't recall the name), Spring Lobby, Lobby++ and probably a few other old projects which have gone to oblivion a long time ago. Oh, and almost forgot LoneWolf's new Python-based (but not UnityLobby-based) lobby (not announced publicly yet, AFAIK).
NIH, I say.

@Tronic
Its not a lobby, its a single player/campaign client with a slew of other features.
