Rating:</em> <font color=#ffff80 size="-1">(not yet rated)</font><p> <em>Description:</em> 5 on 5 basketball simulation for linux<p> <em>Changelog:</em>It's been a long long time since a new full release has been made. But here it is. There are several new features and fixes in this version. <ul> <li>Title Screen and Main Menu- I've added a title screen supplied to me by a friend and a main menu I've created. important note.. on the main menu press the 'd' key to start a game <li>Collisions - Players now collide with each other and bounce off. It's not perfect and somewhat buggy, but it'll improve. <li>Allegro - UBC now links against allegro as stated in the 4-5-2000 snapshot release. It will help to make developing the game much easier. <li>Offense and Defense - basic code for running an offense, settings picks as well as defensive sets have been implemented. There's still much work to be done here and the new collision code is causing some problems right now. But it will all be straightened out given time. <li>2 player support - Is disabled by default and known to be buggy. This will be improved in the next release. <li>color palette - The color palette problems experienced in the previous snapshot have been mostly fixed except for a ghosting effect. <li>UBC also now relies on the libnet library which can be found in the links section and will soon offer networking support (if all goes well). <li>Various bugs have been fixed as well as much of the code has been rewritten and improved. <li>I've also moved the site to sourceforge.net The new link is Ultimate Basketball Challenge The code is now in a cvs repository as well as available as a download via ftp. </ul> | Ultimate Basketball Challenge Snapshot 4 | updated | |
