*beta* blubVolley 1.0

  • I have new idea. Why those who joined the game (while others are playing) are becoming spectators by default? What about going to lobby first? So that they will see who is playing, what the settings are, and if they want to see the game they will click some button to watch it.

    thought about that too, but aber 5 sek watching u know all the settings and players; don't u think so too?


    Have fun :thumbsup:

    Yes, maybe. Only you don't know to how many points the game is played.
    But what about creating a button "Watch"? For example, while i was spectator i left the game (accidentally or to look for another spectators) and i can't return and watch the match without rejoining the gameroom. So I am sometimes annoyed by the lack of this button. :)
    Another idea: what about creating list of spectators (in game)? I think it's interesting to know who joined and watch your game. :)
    Ah I forgot that there is a message in the chat when someone join, but i think list of spectators won't be unnecessary

  • Hi Markus,
    thanks for the new version. Works very smooth :thumbsup:


    One bug we detected is, that sometimes at end the end of a set, the camera zooms out (looks like an island vanishing into the horizon), but doesn't zoom in again for the next set. ;(
    So the field remains zoomed out and is sooooo tiny that playing is not possible.

  • Just some questions:

    • How can we change the background image, e.g. for a team-styled design?
    • The little creatures distract me when playing. Is there a way for me to remove them from the background (like editing some of the txt/xml files)?
    • Is it possible to suppress the error dialog "Could not connect to update server" or check the connection before starting the game (as in current version 0.8). In version 1.0 this error dialog appears during the game and is thus a little bit annoying.

    :D little bit funny bug, will get handled

    # How can we change the background image, e.g. for a team-styled design?

    pls look at
    ./data/meshes/new/blubgame_logo_alpha.png
    ./data/meshes/new/diffuse.png
    ./data/textures/*
    and edit the files :thumbsup:

    # The little creatures distract me when playing. Is there a way for me to remove them from the background (like editing some of the txt/xml files)?

    Good idea! we will cahnge that! :thumbsup: So that player r able just to change a *.xml :D

    ?( that shouldn't have changed! Will proof the sourcecode on that dialog :thumbup: Normaly the game connects at startup. U tested in LAN?


    Thx for feedback! :thumbsup:

  • Some bugs i've notice in firts test...


    - When you play vs a bot and you left room and someone is in, sometimes
    bot goes master so it cant change settings xD


    - You havent changed what i told you about playerposition when playing
    2on2 matches, it still depends on who enters firts in server i think


    - I played with my mate Ank vs 2 bots and my jelly moved like a bot :S i
    didnt have the control of it, it just moved near the net and jumped
    sometimes without any control. I created many rooms and played 1vs 1, vs
    bots, and with different settings and that bug continued. I had to
    restart game 2 times to fix it


    - I think you should set a button where choosing if zoomcamera is ON or
    OFF, because for instance in jumpover games is quite disconcerting...




    I'll continue testing game and i'll post any bugs i see or any
    improvement i'll consider good ;) cu

    :D will be fixed

    Had that bug too; The game sets the controls to mouse! u r not a bot, try the left mousebutton and u will jump! :D After u once saved in gameoptions that effect doesn't occur any more.

    Will add a checkbox to gameoptions :thumbsup:

  • Good idea! we will cahnge that! :thumbsup: So that player r able just to change a *.xml :D

    Thanks, maybe it's possible
    to configure the position of the BLUB-Banner as well, as it is a little
    distacting right behind the player positions.

    dialog

    Yes, we do play in a LAN with a proxy that prohibits
    connections to the update server. If you're starting a game right ahead,
    the dialog appears while playing :( .
    In Version 0.8 the dialog appears before the room dialog appears.
