13171 Neverball games -1 Re: problems with optical mouse? thanks a lot for your help! <br> i checked my framerate.. it begins to flicker when the fps counter drops below some 12 fps. using the lower quality textures, i was able to make the game playable [on an Athlon850/ATI Rage 128], except for some of the more complex levels (e.g. level 3)<br> how about a switch for turning off texturing/lighting/.. completely? (i know, my pc s***s, but anyway.) 2003-08-12 12:56:15 13170
13172 Slickworm games -1 Re: doesn't compile You need the a recent CVS version of OpenAL. I get the same error with that version which is the newest in portage. Alteratively you can use ./configure --enable-sound="no" 2003-08-12 13:06:39 13162
13173 Slickworm games -1 Re: doesn't compile Since you use gentoo, I bet this stuff will help you.<br /> <a href="http://floam.ascorbic.com/gentoo/openal-cvs-20030807.ebuild">openal-cvs ebuild</a><br /> <a href="http://floam.ascorbic.com/gentoo/slickworm-0.2.0.ebuild">slickworm ebuild</a><br /> To use these edit your /etc/make.conf and uncomment the PORTDIR_OVERLAY line.<br /> Put the openal-cvs ebuild in /usr/local/portage/media-libs/openal-cvs/ and run "ebuild openal-cvs-20030807.ebuild digest" in that directory.<br /> Put the slickworm ebuild in /usr/local/portage/app-games/slickworm/ and run "ebuild slickworm-0.2.0.ebuild digest" in that directory.<br /> <br /> Now, emerge openal-cvs and emerge slickworm. 2003-08-12 14:49:19 13162
13174 Slickworm games -1 Re: doesn't compile You will need to emerge -C openal before emerging openal-cvs. 2003-08-12 14:50:11 13173
13175 Neverball games 8316 Re: problems with optical mouse? That seems to be the consensus. Once you get down to about 10 FPS it becomes unplayable. You can maybe make it work on levels 1 and 2, but 3 is gonna kill you. I'm afraid I haven't been able to reproduce this effect given the hardware available to me. I do test it on a variety of machines, the least of which is a 1GHz P3 with a GeForce2, so guess I have to declare this to be the minimum supported configuration. 2003-08-12 15:25:22 13171

13177 Atomic Tanks games -1 Looks like a fun one I might have to try this, I love scorched earth type games, they are nice relaxing games for when solitaire is a bit too wimpy, but when you aren't up to something like <a href="http://www.tuxgames.com/details.cgi?id=561356&nc=1060734358&gameref=57">Jagged Alliance II</a>! OMG is JA2 great, IMHO it is the best Linux game ever! 2003-08-12 17:10:39 0
